[12:01] <ck> variant: ps aux shows compiz running
[12:01] <wolke> variant: but how can i access it, when it's unmounted. it will lose it's /dev-point
[12:01] <variant> wiitard: the default roaming mode will connect you to the first available network without any intervetion from you
[12:01] <noelferreira> how can i give colors to emacs editing. for example to edit java code or #c code?
[12:01] <Dri> Cool.
[12:01] <variant> wolke: no it won't
[12:02] <void^_> i've tried beryl on a gf2mx, it works fine but 2d (scrolling/redraw) and overlay performance is too bad
[12:02] <wiitard> variant: is the NETWORK udner system the same as what ur talking about?
[12:02] <bethany> hey I just installed Ubuntu last week on to my laptop and it wont let me run the centematics on a game i'm playing i was directed to come here, can anyone help?

[12:02] <tokyo25> in win xp when i want to copy a music cd. i use a program called sonic. i use the make an exact copy function, how do i do this with the cd creater or ubuntu?
[12:02] <ck> void: :)
[12:02] <variant> wiitard: there are two entries iirc, network and network tools or something
[12:02] <tokyo25> i wannt to make an exact copy of music disk. i have 1 cd drive
[12:02] <variant> wiitard: put your card into roaming mode in the network gui and it will enable what i was just talking about
[12:03] <variant> tokyo25: in k3b select "copy disk"
[12:03] <ck_> hm 24h disconnect :(
[12:03] <variant> tokyo25: it will image it
[12:03] <ck_> well just an other stupid question, what's the different between beryl and compiz?
[12:04] <variant> ck_: no, somone who owns the "ck" nick joined and kicked you off
[12:04] <jjchico> noelferreira: look at the menus: Options - Syntax highlighting. You should be in java (o whatever) mode, which should occur automatically when you open the file.
[12:04] <tokyo25> krb is a program i will download first?
[12:04] <ck_> ah i see sorry
[12:04] <variant> ck_: beryl is a fork of compiz
[12:04] <variant> tokyo25: k3b
[12:04] <variant> tokyo25: it's like nero burning rom
[12:04] <ck23> well that nick shouldn't be owned i guess
[12:04] <bethany> has anyone ran Diablo 2 lord of disctruction with having Kubuntu as their operating system
[12:04] <variant> tokyo25: apt-get install k3b
[12:04] <Soleil-Raid> Or, there is Nero Burning Rom for Linux.
[12:04] <tokyo25> ya sorry k3b will i need to down first
[12:04] <noelferreira> jjchico: i use emacs not xemacs
[12:04] <tokyo25> ok

[12:04] <variant> ck23: type /whois ck and ask him for it

[12:05] <vagabon1> I'm having trouble getting sound to work on my system - I am following directions from here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 .  I believe my soundcard to be a soundblaster audigy (creative labs) and the driver is emu10k1.  I see the driver in the list when I try sudo modprobe -snd "tab" "tab".

[12:05] <swedekid> can anyone explain this to me? ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/Interface/Addons
[12:05] <variant> swedekid: what about that? it's a path
[12:05] <ck23> variant: it's no problem for me. i can use this nick aswell
[12:05] <Soleil-Raid> tokyo25: http://www.nero.com/eng/nerolinux-prog.php?pak=16
[12:05] <swedekid> well how the crap do i get to it, i tried it and couldnt
[12:05] <swedekid> it doesnt exist
[12:05] <variant> Soleil-Raid: why show him that?
[12:06] <jjchico> noelferreira: also "Alt-X global-font-lock-mode"
[12:06] <chump> swedekid: cd " ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/World of Warcraft/Interface/Addons" i think :P
[12:06] <variant> swedekid: lol, it's hard to help you when you don't have a question (although i realise you are probably feeling a little out of your depth)
[12:06] <wolke> variant: i tried it, and it won't access the stick, when it's unmounted
[12:06] <tokyo25> thanks for help
[12:06] <variant> wolke: then you are doing it wrong
[12:06] <swedekid> wait a sec
[12:06] <swedekid> dang i feel dumb right now
[12:06] <variant> wolke: remember that you need to be root to do those things (sudo command name or sudo -i to become root()
[12:07] <k1gwb> I have a question...in my gnome panel I have the "deskbar" applet, and it works if I choose "button in panel", but if I choose "entry in panel" it shows up properly but I cannot type in the text area.  Any thoughts?
[12:07] <chump> can we do partition on a usb flashdrive ?
[12:07] <Tarkus> im trying to setup my /home as a different partition. do i just make a folder on my partition for the user (mike), and then put all my files in it, then when i install ubuntu, just set the mount point for that partition to /home/?
[12:07] <variant> chump: yes, use gparted or cfdisk
[12:07] <swedekid> yea, that didnt
[12:07] <swedekid> work
[12:07] <swedekid> tried to do it in terminal
[12:08] <wolke> variant:  sudo fdisk /dev/sda
[12:08] <vagabon1> Can anyone recommend any resource other than http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 for getting sound to work?
[12:08] <funkyHat> Tarkus, yes pretty much... are you copying the files from windows? or another Linux installation?
[12:08] <jordan_> Hey, when using XDMCP, are 3d graphics (say, in WINE) rendered at the server or client end?
[12:08] <nexous> How do I remove the splash screen from feisty?
[12:08] <variant> Tarkus: don't bother making any folders. instead, during install select the other partition as /home ubuntu will put all the files it needs there automatically
[12:08] <variant> Tarkus: then you can copy over the existing files
[12:09] <variant> wolke: i told you to use cfdisk not fdisk
[12:09] <ammmom> hyper_ch
[12:09] <wolke> variant: same thing
[12:09] <Tarkus> variant, but i already have media on the partition.. (music, video, pictures, that iw ant to keep (im not formating that partition)
[12:09] <wolke> variant: same result
[12:09] <variant> wolke: what result
[12:09] <variant> Tarkus: what file system is it?
[12:09] <Tarkus> variant, ext3
[12:10] <Tarkus> variant, everything is ext3
[12:10] <wolke> variant:  FATAL ERROR: Cannot open disk drive
[12:10] <variant> Tarkus: cool, in the installer choose NOT to format it but instead just set the mount point to be /home/ and all your files will be preserved and it will add in what it needs
[12:10] <skeletonix> :D
[12:10] <ammmom> hyper_ch, I'm a notch down on the stupid belt.  Hooray! Are you around???
[12:10] <swedekid> chump: umm, can you walk me through it step by step :/ im sorta ubuntu illiterate
[12:10] <Tarkus> variant, so it wont dump all my video,music, etc.. folders in /home right? cause they should be in /home/mike/, correct?
[12:11] <k1gwb> any thoughts on the deskbar gnome panel applet not accepting entry when the entry field is in the panel?
[12:11] <chump> swedekid: you want to get into this folder ?
[12:11] <nopcode> hey
[12:11] <variant> Tarkus: it will dump them into /home/ easyest way to fix that is post install
[12:11] <swedekid> chump: yep
[12:11] <nopcode> i tried the installation instructions for the nvidia driver but it didnt work
[12:11] <M_42> !pastebin
[12:11] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:11] <nopcode> X doesnt start anymore
[12:11] <nopcode> any suggestions?
[12:12] <chump> swedekid: Places > home folders
[12:12] <wolke> variant: would i need to create some device first?
[12:12] <variant> Tarkus: the only concern with putting them in a folder called /mike/ is that the installer might not like that if you then ask it to create a home dir called /mike
[12:12] <chump> swedekid: Places > home folder**
[12:12] <Stumpf> Hey guys, anyone suggest a nice media player (ie Rythymbox/XMMS/Amaroak etc) that has a builtin Equalizer similar to XMMS / Winamp etc?  Or are there other good 'nix utils that work well as an equilizer on the desktop?
[12:12] <variant> wolke: no, as long ast he device is plugged in and not mounted that should work fine
[12:12] <chump> swe
[12:12] <swedekid> chump: done
[12:12] <chump> swedekid: then menu view > show hidden file
[12:12] <usser> Stumpf: that'd be amarok
[12:12] <Tarkus> variant, so, should i just install ubuntu, and then mount it later when ubuntu is installed?
[12:12] <usser> Stumpf: for me at least cause i run kde
[12:13] <chump> swedekid: then you will see the .wine dir
[12:13] <wolke> variant: it doesn't work. :((
[12:13] <swedekid> chump: yea i got it, i feel like a really really big idiot
[12:13] <variant> Tarkus: no, install ubuntu but DURING install, select the advanced partition layout and set your spare partitions mount point to /home but make sure you select DO NOT FORMAT
[12:13] <chump> everybody need to learn somewhere ;)
[12:13] <fbarcenas> Is there any setting that will cause my LCD on my laptop to dim if I haven't touched my laptop in more than say 5 seconds or so, and will brighten when I touch a key?
[12:13] <variant> Tarkus: to make things a bit simpler you can do this
[12:13] <usser> swedekid: dont be u're not alone wine setup threw me off balance too first time i saw it
[12:14] <Tarkus> variant, alright thats what ill do. but then when its done installing. there will be all the content of the drive in /home/ do i move them into /home/mike after?
[12:14] <usser> Stumpf: yep amarok has equalizer
[12:14] <variant> Tarkus: on the spare part create a folder called backup or something and move everything that you want to be in your home folder into that one. then install ubuntu with that part mounted under /home (REMEMBER NOT TO FORMAT IT THOUGH!!!!!) and then run mv ../backup/* ~/ (as the user mike not root)
[12:15] <Juan> how do i see the pppoe connection time?
[12:15] <Yggdrasil> does anyone here know how to get the battery settign to appear on my power manegment preference , its gone :(
[12:15] <variant> Tarkus: this way once you ahve installed you will have /home/backup and /home/mike
[12:15] <variant> Tarkus: and can copy the entire contents of /home/backup into /home/mike
[12:15] <fbarcenas> Is there any setting that will cause my LCD on my laptop to dim if I haven't touched my laptop in more than say 5 seconds or so, and will brighten when I touch a key?
[12:16] <Juan> how do i see the pppoe connected time?
[12:16] <variant> Tarkus: although the permissions on the files in /home/backup will be wrong (you should change the owner and group to that of your user (mike) accordingly
[12:16] <s1icknick> im accessing .doc/.xls files thru a samba share, but am unable to open them without first saving locally. .txt, .pdf and other files open without a problem.  any ideas?
[12:16] <Tarkus> variant, alright, so right now. since i want everything in that partition to be i /home/mike. then there should be only 1 folder on the partition, called "backup" and everything inside there. correct?
[12:16] <Yggdrasil> fbarcenas
[12:16] <Yggdrasil> i dont think so just blank screen after that time...
[12:16] <fbarcenas> Yggdrasil, yes?
[12:16] <VladimirBG> hey all
[12:16] <fbarcenas> Yggdrasil, ahh
[12:16] <psykidellic> hi...how do you find the complete path using ls command?
[12:17] <variant> Tarkus: otherwise if you have /home/mike mixed with all your other files y ou can't just do mv /home/* ./
[12:17] <Yggdrasil> its under settings pwoer manager
[12:17] <VladimirBG> is the situation with ati x1*** series still an issue with feisty?
[12:17] <psykidellic> i want to do ls and output the complete path of all files to a file..
[12:17] <variant> Tarkus: as you would try to copy /home/mike into it's self
[12:17] <crdlb> s1icknick: that's because openoffice doesn't support gnome-vfs
[12:17] <VladimirBG> ati x1*** seris I mean
[12:17] <mon^rch> can somebody tell me how to setup a raid?
[12:18] <Juan> how do i see the pppoe connected time?
[12:18] <s1icknick> crdlb : erm. pardon ? im using kde (if that matters)
[12:18] <crdlb> s1icknick: oh then you need to go to #kubuntu
[12:18] <crdlb> it's completely different on that end
[12:19] <crdlb> their KIOSlaves thing should make it work
[12:19] <Dquestions> any recommendations for screen savers?

[12:20] <Juan> how do i see how long has the pppoe connection been active?
[12:20] <GaiaX11_> psykidellic: give mor details please
[12:20] <JoeR> Heu
[12:20] <Tarkus> variant, so right now on my partition that im going to mount to '/home' there is about 6 folders (videos, pictures, documents, music, etc..) and they all contain many files in each. so now do i make another folder called backup, and move all of those folders into there, making backup the only folder at the root of the partition?
[12:20] <JoeR> Hey*
[12:20] <JoeR> Can anyone help me?
[12:20] <Dquestions> how about for comp sci classes.. anything that rivals paper?
[12:20] <psykidellic> okay... i have two folders .... positive and negative
[12:21] <JoeR> I got a belkin wireless g.. Doesn't seem to be working on linux or Its me who don't know how to setup
[12:21] <psykidellic> now i want to create an index ... with data: positive {completepath of files in directory positive}
[12:21] <JoeR> Please help.
[12:21] <Clinton__> Tarkus: create your backup directory, and them "mv music videos ... backup" Make sure the destionation directory is last
[12:22] <JoeR> Anyone know my problem?
[12:22] <sander___> crdlb: hey man
[12:22] <variant> Tarkus: seeing as there are only 6 folders don't bother
[12:22] <dyrne> JoeR: this a pcmcia card or intrenal pci?
[12:22] <variant> Tarkus: just leave them where they are
[12:22] <variant> Tarkus: and copy them one at a time post isntall
[12:23] <JoeR> USB
[12:23] <sander___> crdlb: i got now to work my ati drivers
[12:23] <Juan> how do i see how long has the pppoe connection been active?
[12:23] <variant> Tarkus: but i can't stress enough the importance of being carefull with the partitioner, check, double check and triple check before you do anything
[12:23] <sander___> crdlb: now q3a runs ok, very nice :)
[12:23] <crdlb> sander___: you mean you got fglrx working on dapper?
[12:23] <variant> Tarkus: and make backups now rather than later
[12:23] <CoRnJuLiOx> has anyone here used cdemu? i'm trying to mount the .cue image by using 'sudo mount /dev/cdemu0/ /mnt' but its asking me to specify a filetype. cdemu's website says to just add '-t iso9660' to the command but then it complains that its the wrong fs type
[12:23] <Tarkus> variant, copy them one at a time to /home/miek after its installed and /home/mike is created?
[12:23] <CCmonster> what program do i use to mount image files? like .cue and .bin?
[12:23] <variant> Tarkus: yep
[12:23] <variant> CCmonster: cdemu
[12:24] <Tarkus> variant, what do you mena make backups now? you mean the folder? i though iw asnt doing that since there is only 6 folders.
[12:24] <sander___> crdlb: i got ati drivers (that i have downloaded from www.ati.com), i just clear all drivers that ubuntu installs by default for this board, and after, i installed the original drivers of ati
[12:24] <dyrne> JoeR: lsusb see if it shows up. other than that no idea if a driver is avaialble id make sure you sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)   if that doesnt work id search ubuntuforums.org for the card model. maybe need ndiswrapper and the windows driver
[12:24] <Slart> how can I force alsa to rescan for soundcards without rebooting?
[12:24] <GaiaX11_> psykidellic: for example if I am in my home I can output the path to a file with:     pwd > my_home_path; cat my_home_path. But, I am not sure if it is what you want. So, if you go to #bash they will certainly help you better :-)
[12:24] <JoeR> I did lsusb
[12:24] <JoeR> and it poped up
[12:24] <wiitard> Variant. My wireless goes unstable after Disconnecting it or Disabling it. I must restart every time.
[12:24] <dyrne> JoeR: ifconfig -a   show it?
[12:24] <variant> Tarkus: i mean, if you have  a usb disk now is a good time to put your important files on it :)
[12:25] <JoeR> Hmm.
[12:25] <CCmonster> whats the apt-get call name variant?
[12:25] <JoeR> I don't know but I gotta get off windows
[12:25] <bytecolor> psykidellic, you just want a text file with full pathnames to files in positive/ ?
[12:25] <sander___> crdlb: i removed fglrx/ati of ubuntu installed here by default, and the vesa driver
[12:25] <JoeR> and go back on linux
[12:25] <variant> CCmonster: probably cdemu, run apt-cache search cdemu
[12:25] <JoeR> I hate switching :@
[12:25] <CCmonster> caceh?
[12:25] <Tarkus> variant, oh, alright. ok thanks for the help ill start installing now.
[12:25] <variant> Tarkus: good luck
[12:25] <CCmonster> wots the diff between apt-cache and apt-get?
[12:25] <sander___> crdlb: after, i installed the original drivers and this works perfect, quake 3 are running nice :D
[12:25] <JoeR> Anyway I can have both loaded at same time
[12:25] <jordan_> Where does 3d graphics get rendered when using XDMCP.. server or client side??
[12:25] <JoeR> with a progeram
[12:26] <sander___> crdlb: im so happy heheh
[12:26] <TP8192> Hey guys
[12:26] <jorgp> CCmonster: apt-cache shows what packages are in cache, apt-get can install/remove packages
[12:26] <dyrne> JoeR: vmware. i prefer vmware server its a free download you can run xp on a virtual machine
[12:26] <Dquestions> WHat would you guys recommend for inclass nonetaking?
[12:26] <crdlb> sander___: just watch out for kernel upgrades
[12:26] <tokyo25> i installed k3b using the sudo apt-get, but when i clcik it it wont open
[12:26] <dyrne> JoeR: other options but vmwrae is easiest
[12:26] <tokyo25> its in the sound n video menu
[12:26] <JoeR> Hmm
[12:26] <wiitard> Variant: My wireless will go unstable if i DC or Disable it. It will say I am connected, but i can't browse or connect to anything.
[12:26] <TP8192> Did anyone run across the "Buffer I/O error on device fd0, logical block 0" or \
[12:26] <JoeR> But if I use vmare I need to reinstall linux?
[12:26] <TP8192> or "initram..."?
[12:27] <TP8192> I've found the cause to that prob!!!
[12:27] <jorgp> Dquestions: I use vi, but then again, I use vi for everthing
[12:27] <sander___> crdlb: hey man, do you know some about how to running xmame in the ubuntu?

[12:27] <crdlb> sander___: not really but I doubt it's very hard :)
[12:27] <sebas_> tokyo25: or from the terminal
[12:27] <dyrne> CCmonster: dont think its in repos i usually have to download it
[12:28] <wiitard> It just wont let me browse

[12:28] <TP8192> How can I make it recognize it...?
[12:28] <wiitard> but ubuntu configured it automatically
[12:28] <JoeR> True , maybe cuz none of there users use linux btw.

[12:30] <CCmonster> it is a movie
[12:30] <usser> tokyo25: just do 'whereis appname'
[12:30] <JoeR> Oh and the funny part is that the LIVE CD recognized my dlink connections got my signal but didn't work
[12:30] <CCmonster> is the standard mplayer the best version?
[12:30] <JoeR> This doesn't even get anything lol

[12:31] <wiitard> VLC can run image files
[12:31] <Rescue9> hmmmm... no gentoophiles huh.
[12:31] <TP8192> HELLO???
[12:31] <wolfeon> is there *any* reason to use the 64 bit build on a AMD X2? virtualization still works the same on the 32bit build, right?
[12:31] <CCmonster> whats the :2 for?
[12:31] <Rescue9> TP8192: what is your question?
[12:31] <JoeR> Ughh.. I see
[12:31] <dyrne> CCmonster: 1 didnt work :)  im not sure why 2 does but it seems to
[12:31] <JoeR> Ill guess ill go now lol.
[12:31] <JoeR> Its hopeless
[12:31] <wiitard> are  there any one to help me wifi connextion
[12:32] <wolfeon> omg, this channel is going so fast it is impossible
[12:32] <tokyo25> ill try this
[12:32] <daedra> wiitard: yes
[12:32] <wolfeon> 1266 users... holy crap
[12:32] <CCmonster> lol
[12:32] <daedra> I can help with ra0 (RaLink) cards
[12:32] <dyrne> JoeR: google search like 'site:ubuntuforums.org cardmodel'
[12:32] <wolfeon> is there an advanced ubuntu channel? :)
[12:32] <wiitard> daedra: my wifi will say i connected but it wont let me browse
[12:32] <CCmonster> ubuntu is BLOWING UP :)
[12:32] <wolfeon> I remember I was in one, but I don't remember
[12:32] <GaiaX11_> psykidellic: Ok. But I think in this case #bash is better than google
[12:32] <Juan> how do i see how long has the pppoe connection been active?
[12:32] <TP8192> Rescue9: The LiveCD of Ubuntu does not recognize my USB key
[12:32] <JoeR> I don't have a card I have a USB..
[12:32] <Steve^> My printing is being a little dodgy, how can I restart CUPS without doing a full reboot?
[12:32] <tokyo25> more ppl in here than the windows roon
[12:32] <tokyo25> sign of the times?
[12:32] <dyrne> JoeR: yeah
[12:32] <TP8192> Rescue9: It's very important as I wish to install Ubuntu on it.
[12:33] <daedra> wiitard: never use network-manager, its still crap
[12:33] <kitche> wolfeon: not really at least that is official ubuntu channel
[12:33] <wiitard> daedra: what should i use?
[12:33] <wolfeon> kitche: I think I was in +1 or motu :P
[12:33] <daedra> wiitard: I recommend, before using network-manager, to look under ubuntuforums.org for your card name
[12:33] <daedra> wiitard: what is your chipset for your wireless card?
[12:33] <kitche> wolfeon: #ubuntu+1 is for the upcoming release of ubuntu
[12:33] <wolfeon> kitche: I know
[12:33] <wiitard> daedra: INTEL PRO BG
[12:33] <JoeR> The funny part is that in hardware it finds my card. IM just having trouble getting it to find networks. Not even an options Or even setting it up!
[12:34] <wiitard> daedra: so what app i should use?
[12:34] <dyrne> JoeR: does ifconfig -a show a device if so do. sudo ifconfig eth0 down; iwlist ath0 scan; sudo iwconfig ath0 essid networkname; sudo dhclient ath0      where ath0 is whatever device
[12:34] <tritium> wiitard: that's well supported
[12:34] <kitche> wolfeon: so really it's not advance it's more of a bug fix channel :)
[12:34] <wolfeon> kitche: you wouldn't happen to know if there is any pro of using 64 bit on the AMD X2 if I am using virtualization and the system is below 4 gigs?
[12:34] <CCmonster> i get some error in mplayer
[12:34] <dyrne> JoeR: er sudo ifconfig ath0 up first
[12:34] <Goldline> 1985
[12:34] <CCmonster> i just did sudo apt-get install mplayer
[12:34] <wiitard> Tritium: but it wont let me connect unless i restart
[12:34] <Rescue9> Ok... one last time.. :-P Anyone in here used gentoo and can give me your thoughts on it vs ubuntu?
[12:34] <Yggdrasil> ccmonster what is the error ?
[12:34] <daedra> wiitard: no "app". just use console, using any help you get from ubuntuforums.org
[12:34] <tritium> wiitard: ipw2200?
[12:34] <tritium> Hi lineman60
[12:34] <wiitard> tritium: yes
[12:34] <dyrne> CCmonster: welcome to the dark side
[12:35] <CCmonster> lol
[12:35] <kitche> wolfeon: hmm probably not but since it's not true 64-bit, it might work I m not a big fan with x86_64 yet since it has hiccups
[12:35] <lineman60> hello
[12:35] <JoeR> Im a noob at linux so it sounds chinese to what ur saying
[12:35] <JoeR> lol
[12:35] <tokyo25> ive never tried gentoo. ubuntus my first experience of linux
[12:35] <wolfeon> kitche: X2 isn't true 64?
[12:35] <wolfeon> how so?
[12:35] <Juan> how do i check the dsl status?
[12:35] <CCmonster> error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device
[12:35] <Rescue9> yea... thats what I see a lot tokyo25
[12:35] <tokyo25> im interested in trying bsd soon
[12:36] <lineman60> tritium, whats your plans for the summer/
[12:36] <dyrne> JoeR:  i know its a little offputting but doing that in a terminal will tell you if the card is working. i dont know the gui tools very well
[12:36] <Yggdrasil> CCmonsters right click  on the video screen and then do configure
[12:36] <Yggdrasil> perhaps
[12:36] <CCmonster> wot was i thinking, VLC did the trick :)
[12:36] <tritium> lineman60: just working like always...
[12:36] <wiitard> PLZ THANK me :)
[12:36] <wolfeon> Yggdrasil: why did you choose that nick? :)
[12:36] <kitche> wolfeon: it's x86 with 64bit extensions
[12:36] <Yggdrasil> chose it ?
[12:36] <JoeR> What exactly do I need to type.?
[12:36] <Yggdrasil> i cant remember
[12:36] <wolfeon> kitche: ohhh, I se :)
[12:36] <Yggdrasil> ive had it for 10 years
[12:37] <Yggdrasil> its a tree
[12:37] <wolfeon> aha..
[12:37] <Yggdrasil> it is me
[12:37] <SlimeyPete> CCmonster: if you're using command-line mplayer, run it with "mplayer -vo <device> filename". You can get a list of devices by typing "mplayer -vo help" I think. Try a few.
[12:37] <bododo> hi folks :)
[12:37] <wolfeon> Yggdrasil: just interesting.
[12:37] <Yggdrasil> yes
[12:37] <Yggdrasil> its for the tree, not the distro and not the name of the ship ;)
[12:37] <bododo> whene i try to start apache2 i got this erreor: Segmentation fault (core dumped) any idea, please, of what it may be?
[12:38] <tokyo25> can anyone tell me a quick way to use k3b, i need to copy 2 music cds. but when i click it it wont open
[12:38] <SlimeyPete> tokyo25: try running it from a terminal. See if it prints any error messages.
[12:38] <tokyo25> im not very good at navigating and using terminal yet
[12:38] <Yggdrasil> open a terminal
[12:38] <Yggdrasil> and type k3b
[12:38] <bododo> tokyo25: is it well installed? are you under gnome?
[12:38] <SlimeyPete> tokyo25: just type "k3b" and hit enter.
[12:38] <Yggdrasil> oh yea hit enter
[12:38] <dyrne> JoeR: does 'ifconfig -a' show a device if so assuming the device is ath0 could be wifi0 or whatever ..do: sudo ifconfig eth0 down; sudo ifconfig ath0 up; iwlist ath0 scan; sudo iwconfig ath0 essid networkname; sudo dhclient ath0      where ath0 is whatever device
[12:38] <tokyo25> when i find k3b how do i run it, in terminal
[12:38] <tokyo25> im using gnome
[12:39] <wiitard> Do i use Iwfconfig to connect to wireless
[12:39] <JoeR> Ill try man
[12:39] <bododo> tokyo25: since k3b is written for kde, you need some kde libs
[12:39] <JoeR> Im a noob at this
[12:39] <wiitard> *iwconfig
[12:39] <JoeR> But ill try
[12:39] <tokyo25> ahh
[12:39] <tokyo25> aynaptics?
[12:39] <tokyo25> synaptics
[12:39] <Yggdrasil> whats the error
[12:39] <tokyo25> will i get em there
[12:39] <isandirlappy_> hey guys
[12:40] <Jozxyqk> hello i have a question.. does anyone know how i can configure exim4 on ubuntu, to allow "suffix" email addresses? like joe-email@host.com and joe-news@host.com ?
[12:40] <bododo> tokyo25: just install K3B via synaptics and it will get you the requested libs
[12:40] <bododo> anyone for my apache segfault? :(
[12:40] <tokyo25> ok will try. thanks
[12:40] <bododo> tokyo25: you're welcome :)
[12:40] <Jozxyqk> i had it set up in an old debian system in exim4.conf.template but i dont think that is a simple "copy over to new systeM" thing
[12:40] <Juan> how do i check the dsl status - time connected?
[12:41] <matt__> bododo: tricky one, did you install it from the ubuntu packages?
[12:41] <Rish1> How would I make GAIM autostart when ubuntu first loads up?
[12:41] <bododo> matt__: yes, using synaptic
[12:41] <dyrne> Juan: ps aux might tell you for the process
[12:42] <Jamesbro> h
[12:42] <bododo> matt__: even the error log isn't helpfull :(
[12:42] <Juan> dyrne, i want to know how long has the dsl connection been active
[12:42] <jo__> hello good night
[12:42] <bododo> tokyo25: btw you can use brasero, it's a good tool too, i like it
[12:43] <matt__> bododo: what's the command you're using to start Apache again (sorry i missed it)
[12:43] <lethu> Rish1, System --> Preferences --> Sessions --> then add gaim to startup programs
[12:43] <TP8192> DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO MAKE UBUNTU LIVECD RECOGNIZE MY USB KEY...?
[12:43] <tokyo25> ok ill try that too. thanks
[12:43] <Rish1> lethu: thanks
[12:44] <lethu> Rish1, yw
[12:44] <dyrne> Juan: dunno maybe something in /var/log .. maybe cat /var/log/wvdialconf.log or something
[12:44] <bododo> matt__: i use /etc/init.d/apache2 but i think there's somethning otrher apachectrl or such
[12:44] <bododo> i used to use httpd start under FC6
[12:44] <Jchord> My ubuntu 7.4 server is not telling my router it's name and i need it to for setting up services
[12:44] <TP8192> PLZ?
[12:44] <TP8192> someone...?
[12:45] <dyrne> Jchord: ive noticed that too. blank hostname in some routers
[12:45] <bododo> TP8192: try mound /dev/sda1 /mnt/flash
[12:45] <Jchord> is there any way to fix that
[12:45] <bododo> of course you'll have to mkdir flash
[12:45] <tokyo25> all though it takes a bit of learning, i cant believe there are so many free tools for linux, that u wud pay for in windows
[12:45] <CCmonster> ok, so samba wont flippin work
[12:45] <TP8192> bododo: it doesn't let me mount 'cause I have no sa access.
[12:46] <bododo> matt__: what cmd are you using?
[12:46] <matt__> bododo: ps aux | grep apache  - anyone apache process running?
[12:46] <gwashburn> the bug at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/alsa-driver/+bug/88570 says the fix was committed. how do I get the fix?
[12:46] <Jchord> id did orginaly but then it stoped after a reinstall
[12:46] <TP8192> bododo: which leads me to another question... how can I get sa access in LiveCD?
[12:46] <matt__> bododo: /usr/sbin/apache2ctl start
[12:46] <jo__> somebody has a good hint how to set up different gnome desktop profiles?? I'm running ubuntu7 on laptop. when switching from twinview to 1 screen, icons out off place, got lost, any hint here?
[12:46] <bododo> matt__: no apache process yet
[12:46] <Tarkus> what does it mean when a file in a terminal 'ls' is light blue? like "examples"?
[12:46] <CCmonster> ok, so i downloaded a .gz file
[12:46] <CCmonster> how do i compile or use it rather
[12:47] <dyrne> Jchord: sudo gedit /etc/dhcp3/dhclient.conf  then edit the send host-name "whatever" and save and restart networking i think
[12:47] <Rish1> How do I change my theme? I just installed the Vista-Classic and I have it in the Emerald Themer list, but when I click/double click, nothing happens
[12:47] <Jchord> thanks i will try
[12:47] <bianconeri> Hello guys, I have a seemingly easy problem, I have Feisty on an HP laptop, everything was working fine. Then one day I try to log in, it logs in for 5 seconds and then brings me back to the login screen. I created a new user and that seems to work fine, so there must be something wrong with my original account....how could I probe whats wrong with it?
[12:47] <noelferreira> how can i give emacs syntax highlighting?
[12:47] <tritium> CCmonster: what did you download?  I hope you checked for ubuntu packages first...
[12:47] <bododo> matt__: the same error, but doesn't apachectl just start the service in init.d ?
[12:47] <CCmonster> gnomad
[12:47] <bytecolor> Tarkus, try the file command
[12:47] <bytecolor> file filename
[12:48] <matt__> bododo: yes that will make apache run at start-up
[12:48] <noelferreira> how can i give emacs syntax highlighting?
[12:48] <bododo> matt__: yes, that's it actually that's not the same under FC
[12:48] <dyrne> noelferreira: it wont help much. youll still be using emacs :)
[12:48] <bododo> anyway, it still gives me the same error :(
[12:48] <VladimirBG> what is happening with the bug that plages Dell laptop owner with ati mobility x1*00 graphics?
[12:48] <bytecolor> noelferreira, /join #emacs
[12:48] <matt__> dyrne: how dare you :)
[12:49] <tritium> CCmonster: gnomad2 is in the repos

[12:49] <ziggy23> Hi...I am trying to get Firestarter to start in the tray on startup and have issues.  See http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20091/.  Ideas, anyone?
[12:49] <CCmonster> im a fan of amarok, too bad it wont work that well :O
[12:49] <Tarkus> bytecolor, aah, so its a symbolic link. thanks
[12:50] <Tarkus> bytecolor, how do i remove a symbolic link from somewhere?
[12:50] <matt__> bododo: do you have any apache modules installed?
[12:50] <bododo> matt__: yes the php one
[12:50] <bododo> matt__: is apache_common still required even with apache2 ?
[12:51] <bianconeri> Hello guys, I have a seemingly easy problem, I have Feisty on an HP laptop, everything was working fine. Then one day I try to log in, it logs in for 5 seconds and then brings me back to the login screen. I created a new user and that seems to work fine, so there must be something wrong with my original account....how could I probe whats wrong with it?
[12:51] <bytecolor> Tarkus, just the link, not the file it points to?
[12:51] <polysynaptic> anyone working with Feisty and ra2500, WPA2 on DDWRT, no network manager?
[12:51] <acidBURN> what command would I used to find out what driver is being used for the pcmcia card ???
[12:51] <bytecolor> gotsta run (install ubuntu on my moms pc!)
[12:51] <JoeR> Hey im back
[12:51] <CCmonster> its too bad amarok cant do everything :( i would love to just have a one stop shop for audio
[12:51] <philwhln> Tarkus: unlink <path to the file>
[12:51] <JoeR> It said ath0 not found device
[12:51] <matt__> bododo: no i dont think so. just apache2-common
 hp was paid by M$ to sabatoge you
[12:52] <bododo> matt__: that's what i though too...
[12:52] <Tarkus> bytecolor, because i acidentaly copied a symbolic to another partition.
[12:52] <obiwan_> how can i install video-device for isight????
[12:52] <Tarkus> bytecolor, so i just want to remove that link, not the files..
[12:52] <bianconeri> SnapLinux heh,  funny
[12:53] <acidBURN> need some help in getting some driver info from the pcmcia card
[12:53] <polysynaptic> really? so ra2500 doesn't work in feisty at all?
[12:53] <danlock2> OMG, i'm going to KILL this remote access thing.
[12:53] <bytecolor> Tarkus, if it's a sym link 'ln -s' rm will just remove the link
[12:53] <JoeR> It said ath0 not found device
[12:53] <matt__> bododo: which php module package did you install?
[12:54] <Tarkus> bytecolor, ok, thanks
[12:54] <JoeR> Guess I installed ubuntu for nothing. can't even get net working lol
[12:54] <dyrne> JoeR: ath0 is my device youre will be different 'ifconfig -a' will show you yours eth0 is the hardline and lo the loopback anything else should be it
[12:55] <bododo> matt__: the version 5
[12:55] <JoeR> lol..
[12:55] <ixian_> would you guys say that the ntfs-3g driver is generally reliable? because i think it just wiped out all my music (i have a backup luckly)
[12:55] <bododo> matt__: btw, i'm on a PPC
[12:55] <brentc4m> i can't get my mic to record, i've set it up dozens of times before, i've enabled the master capture and mic capture channels and turned them up all the way, if i turn up the amic channel on playback i can hear myself through the speakers
[12:55] <JoeR> Mine is etho0
[12:55] <brentc4m> also recording through analog mix works
[12:55] <brentc4m> anyone got a clue?
[12:55] <polysynaptic> JoeR: try feisty with a RA2500 chipset
[12:55] <dyrne> JoeR: all this can be dont in the graphical envinronment id search ubuntuforums.org for your usb device
[12:55] <sebas_> ixian_: i think that feisty has NTFS native support
[12:55] <JoeR> What the heck is that.
[12:55] <ziggy23> I am trying to get Firestarter to start minimized when I boot Ubuntu.  If I enter the command "sudo firestarter --start-minimized in the session manager, no icon appears in the tray.  How do I fix?
[12:56] <dyrne> goban: dont==done
[12:56] <JoeR> I did already.
[12:56] <JoeR> I searched but nothing works.
[12:56] <matt__> bododo: libapache2-mod-php5? just checking you don't have apache1.* version
[12:56] <kraudio> hi all
[12:56] <bododo> matt__: yes, that's not idiot, i could be that silly!!! will check right now :) thanks
[12:56] <CCmonster> ok so , i can copy files over to my gf's XP computer, but she cant get onto mine
[12:57] <tuxub> hi, my 2 usb hd (2.5") are not mount automaticaly. one is w95Fat32 and the other is NTFS. they both appear under dmesg and can be mount manually without problems... what's missing?
[12:57] <acidBURN> will ifconfig show driver info
[12:57] <bododo> matt__: no, no, i installed the right one :(
[12:58] <JoeR> Ehh of well I quit..
[12:58] <jules> i've been having some issues with my Audigy SE under ubuntu x64. ALSA recognizes the card and loads the module ca0106 (i think that's the one...it isn't and EMU10k chip). Anyway, when the system attempts to play a sound, the only output is a gratingly annoying white noise.
[12:58] <jules> any suggestions?
[12:58] <whatitis> ok im probably gonna get flamed for this
[12:58] <palomer> hello
[12:59] <matt__> bododo: there maybe some kind of dependency problems with your PPC version
[12:59] <palomer> i installed ubuntu
[12:59] <Alonea> I seem to be having a lot of problems with mounting and umounting lately. My thum drives are no longer automounting and I could not eject my cd drive
[12:59] <palomer> but i dont know the root password
[12:59] <abg> if i want to type in japanese, once i have the language installed, how do i switch to it?
[12:59] <Alonea> I had to stick a in the little hole to eject the disk and it didn't mount again when I put a different disk in there. What's going on?
[12:59] <palomer> i dont remember setting it
[12:59] <Alonea> there is also a locked folder called My Book now in my /media folder too. My Book is my external hdd, but its not even plugged in at the moment
[12:59] <whatitis> where can i d/l a copy of XP sp2?
[12:59] <dyrne> palomer: i tell you a secret. there isnt one
[12:59] <palomer> EHHH
[12:59] <palomer> when i type su
[12:59] <Alonea> the only thing new that I have put on my system is Vmware server. Would that cause anything?
[12:59] <palomer> it asks me for a password
[01:00] <tuxub> palomer, its your normal user password
[01:00] <palomer> tried that
[01:00] <palomer> failed
[01:00] <dyrne> palomer: by default not root pass is set so you cant su. you can sudo command or sudo -s or sudo -i for a root term
[01:00] <kitche> tuxub: not for su
[01:00] <bododo> matt__: everything seems fine! or is it just because i'm using a ppc?
[01:00] <bododo> :'(
[01:00] <tuxub> sorry
[01:00] <tuxub> sudo
[01:00] <PyL> Hello all, it is not difficult to study linux and programming in C++, but what is difficult is that i can't keep the right mood (state) for constantly studying them, what do you guys do for this? how do you manage or you don't have such a problem?
[01:00] <tuxub> i suppose is talking about sudo
[01:00] <whatitis> what is a good bittorrent site?
[01:00] <dyrne> whatitis: isohunt of course :)
[01:00] <JoeR> torrentspy.com
[01:01] <tuxub> palomer, there is no password for root
[01:01] <brentc4m> PyL, you can't make yourself enjoy it

[01:09] <bododo> matt__: thanks for all bro
[01:10] <tokyo25> in edgy i used Envy to sort all my video and codec woes
[01:10] <bimberi> cotton: C
[01:10] <dyrne> Wiseguy: ive not used samba really but i believe there is a smbpasswd you can set
[01:10] <jo__> mike71b: samba?
[01:10] <TP8192> ok... solved everything all by myself ;)
[01:10] <danlock2> so, should SSH be easy to configure from the terminal.

[01:11] <jasper> after installing the latest nvidia drivers and beryl, when I try to initialize it I get an error.. would someone be able to help?

[01:11] <mike71b> Oddly enough about one in ten tries gets me in, no passwd
[01:11] <dyrne> jasper: what error?  just a line or two dont flood :)
[01:11] <cotton> Unacceptable

[01:12] <mike71b> Thats what is so weird about it, every once in a while the contents pop right up, or if in edgy works flawlessly
[01:12] <ziggy23> danlock: Have found SSH from terminal a bear to configure, but I am a newbie!

[01:12] <Alonea> jasper: X errors are normal
[01:13] <Alonea> jasper: its referring to the lack of a wacom tablet. there is a way to turn that off, but I forgot how.
[01:13] <jasper> Alonea: it doesn't start though? or am I missing something
[01:13] <kraudio> hi all
[01:13] <SlimeyPete> jasper: that error occurs because Ubuntu always configures X to look for a Wacom tablet, even if you don't have one. Ignore it
[01:13] <kraudio> someone use joost with ubuntu?
[01:13] <SlimeyPete> it won't break anything
[01:13] <tim167> why can't i paste text from OpenOffice into a Thunderbird mail !?
[01:13] <mike71b> I don't think permissions, same user and passwd b/t edgy and feisty
[01:14] <Alonea> jasper: sometimes I have to do it a couple times before the password box comes up. Sometimes I have better luck does the command in the Run Command dialogue
[01:14] <mike71b> Any other ideas on the windows browsing problem?
[01:14] <lmosher> What's a good PDF reader that has abilities similar to acrobat that will let me select and copy pictures?
[01:14] <Vulcan40>  fresh install of Feisty with new Nvidia 7600gs video card. Enabled restricted drivers now on boot get Unsupported Video Mode. What should I do
[01:14] <dyrne> tim167: there are in effect two clipboards  stuff copied in one doesnt always paste when a app uses the other. that might be it
[01:14] <jasper> I think I've started beryl... but all that happens now is the taskbar is gone
[01:14] <SlimeyPete> lmosher: Acrobat. Or else xpdf is quite good (not sure if it lets you copy images though)
[01:14] <tim167> dyrne: ok so how do i work around this ?
[01:14] <mike71b> Vulcan, are you getting dropped to the terminal when booting?
[01:15] <Alonea> lmosher: konqueror does that just fine.
[01:15] <lmosher> SlimeyPete, it looks like acrobat won't install from apt. Where do I get it? says no installation candidate?
[01:15] <Vulcan40> mike71b no
[01:15] <thebillywayne> Vulcan40, reboot in recovery mode.  then, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:15] <lmosher> Alonea, I'm on gnome
[01:15] <Alonea> lmosher: on the select text you can save the selected area as text or a picture.
[01:15] <SlimeyPete> lmosher: it's proprietary software. It might be available if you enable Universe and Multiverse, I'm not sure. If not, just go to the Adobe Acrobat Reader website and grab it from there.
[01:15] <Alonea> lmosher: ok. know nothing from the differences from kde to gnome. what opens the pdfs in that?
[01:16] <kr3ml> is there a shortcut key that I can press to be able to close all the open windows...? you know the same button that is in the bottom left
[01:16] <abg> i recently installed japanese, but now that it's set up, i don't know how to switch back and forth between that and english. is there a hotkey to switch between them?
[01:16] <Vulcan40> thanks will try
[01:16] <shmeelAway> two questions:  if i buy a PCMCIA soundcard, will it work on fiesty? and how do i get the fingerprint scanner working, what program?
[01:16] <jasper> Alonea: okay.. now I've lost the taskbar and window resize options.. and no beryl whatsoever :( anyone knows how I can get it back?
[01:16] <jo__> mike71b: but even same user and password, you are for system not the same one. under windows you'll have to set permissions to write and read for all users, perhaps, at least i know this problem when sharing folder s in linux network,,,
[01:16] <kr3ml> sorry... not closed... minimized!
[01:17] <tim167> how do i copy a text from OpenOffice to Thinderbird ?
[01:17] <Alonea> jasper: sorry. don't know
[01:17] <kitche> !codecs | jlu
[01:17] <ubotu> jlu: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[01:17] <tim167> * how do i copy a text from OpenOffice to Thunderbird ?
[01:18] <GaiaX11_> tim167: do you want to send the text by email?
[01:18] <thebillywayne> tim167, select the field, right click it, select copy, move the cursor to the thunderbird window.  right click the field and select paste.
[01:18] <Alonea> lmosher: if kubuntu uses konq, what does ubuntu use? I thought they used same or similar stuff
[01:18] <SlimeyPete> tim167: it should just work, but if it doesn't then copy the text into a text editor first then insert it into the email
[01:18] <jlu> kitche: its not the codecs. i lack hardware accelleration. and with beryl it's even worse.
[01:18] <tim167> GaiaX11 yes, i tried avery copy/paste action, none works
[01:18] <lmosher> Alonea, As a general rule if it starts with a K it's for KDE...
[01:18] <mike71b> Yep permissions are wide open on the folder... sometimes the contents will be displayed and I copied a 3 gig folder over... just every once in a while no wait icon but straight into the folder and I can read or write there ... just strange fine as day under 6.10
[01:18] <GaiaX11_> tim167: Open office can send it straight away
[01:18] <jinxed> Is XGL different from beryl?
[01:19] <tim167> SlimeyPete: there are 3 images in my OpenOffice text, which i also want to copy to my email
[01:19] <kitche> jinxed: yes XGL is a server that beryl/compiz can use to work
[01:19] <jlu> kitche: everything looks like crap. especially in full-screen.
[01:19] <Alonea> lmosher: I get that, but I am saying what is the gnome equivalent, and maybe it does same as ours does.
[01:19] <SlimeyPete> jinxed: XGL is an extension for the X server. Beryl is a program which can make use of this extension.
[01:19] <kitche> jlu: then don't use beryl
[01:19] <tim167> GaiaX11, i want the text in my Oo document to be part of a larger mail i have in Thunderbird
[01:19] <mike71b> If i try the whole browsing sequence from menu to network to computer to share right into the folder ....
[01:19] <jasper> using ctrl+alt+backspace and startx I did get the taskbar back.. still dont know what to do about the beryl error though
[01:19] <jinxed> SlimeyPete, how would i go about getting xgl
[01:19] <lmosher> Alonea, I've tested it.
[01:20] <GaiaX11_> tim167: You do not need to copy/paste to send it.
[01:20] <kitche> jlu: beryl/compiz still ahevs oem problems with playing videos among other multimedia things
[01:20] <Scottc> Are there any C++ IDEs for Ubuntu?
[01:20] <kristian> hello
[01:20] <SlimeyPete> jinxed: use synaptic to install xserver-xgl, IIRC
[01:20] <mike71b> About one in 10 gets me in ... the fail box 9 out of 10
[01:20] <GaiaX11_> tim167: Configure openoffice to use thunderbird then
[01:20] <jinxed> SlimeyPete, whats synamptic?
[01:20] <Scottc> something that makes a makefile for me maybe? manages coding projects?
[01:21] <dyrne> Scottc: most people end up using vim with syntax highlighting. there is kdevelop i think a number of others
[01:21] <SlimeyPete> jinxed: the package manager. System -> Tools -> Synaptic Package Manager. It's the main way of installing software on Ubuntu.
[01:21] <Alonea> lmosher: ok. sorry then. Don't know what else does pdfs.
[01:21] <jlu> kitche: hehe, yeah, well. i guess i could get rid of beryl (even though it was acctually what made me go ubuntu). but, even if i do, things do not work properly. in mplayer it works somewhat better than in totem, but there's still problems with motion.
[01:21] <tim167> GaiaX11 the problem seems to be i cant copy an image from a Oo doc to thunderbird, text alone works
[01:21] <kitche> jlu: what's your video card?
[01:21] <Soccrmastr> the "main" way, I never use Synaptic
[01:21] <jlu> kitche: i915
[01:21] <SlimeyPete> jinxed: if you're using Kubuntu then it's called Adept, or if you're in a terminal it's called apt-get. They're all basically the same thing.
[01:22] <xDCDx> hello
[01:22] <mzanfardino> is there some way to determine if one or more vector exists for a layer (programmatically)?
[01:22] <kitche> jlu: that should have hardware acceleration
[01:22] <mzanfardino> nm
[01:22] <GaiaX11_> tim167: Have you tried evolution?
[01:23] <tim167> GaiaX11, nah i'll fix it this way, importing the pics manually, thanks anyway!
[01:23] <jlu> kiche: oh yes, the card does. it seems ubuntu it not using it though. but don't take my word for it technically - it's just my way of describing what i'm seeing. it looks like when you turn off hardware acceleration under windows.
[01:23] <GaiaX11_> tim167: configure you account in evolution. Config openoffice to use evolution
[01:23] <GaiaX11_> tim167: Ok. It's up to you :-)
[01:24] <kitche> jlu: yeah see XGL actually takes away hardware acceleration but think your probably using AIGLX which comes with X
[01:24] <jinxed> SlimeyPete, what did you say about IIRC I found the xserver-xgl but not IIRC
[01:24] <kitche> jlu: what does glxinfo|grep rendering tell you in a terminal
[01:24] <SlimeyPete> jinxed: sorry... IIRC means "If I Remember Correctly". It's an abbreviation which is commonly used on IRC. You don't need to install it.
[01:25] <xDCDx> I added 'PATH=$PATH:/usr/sbin/heura' to /etc/bash.bashrc and rebooted. This new path has the scripts, foo.sh, that works by typing 'foo.sh' when I'm a regular user. When I do 'sudo -i', I can do foo.sh and works fine. But 'sudo foo.sh' says: 'foo.sh: command not found', but 'sudo /usr/sbin/heura/foo.sh' works fine.
[01:25] <jlu> kitche: without beryl running it says "direct rendering Yes"
[01:25] <xDCDx> what's the problem?
[01:25] <jinxed> alright i installed xserver-xgl how do I switch it to that instead of whatever it was running on before SlimeyPete
[01:25] <jlu> kiche: i have no idea wat AIGLX or XGL is... :)
[01:26] <rr_lap> why cant i set mode monitor on my wifi card?
[01:26] <pieman> anyone here running an nforce 5 or 6 chipset with a core 2 duo?
[01:26] <tim167> is there a commandline program to rescale an image (make it small for web) ? thanks
[01:26] <SlimeyPete> jinxed: just log out and then back in again. You won't notice any difference unless you load Beryl or Compiz, though.
[01:27] <jasper> when I click on the beryl-manager or beryl-settings-manager icons they don't even start
[01:27] <xDCDx> tim167: try 'man convert', or search for imagemagick on google
[01:27] <mjr> tim167, convert and mogrify from the imagemagick package do wonders for command line image manipulation
[01:27] <Scottc> why this os look like mac?
[01:27] <jlu> kitche: i while back when i was messing with this someone told me to configure gstreamer using some command i cant remember to use "vx".
[01:27] <jinxed> k
[01:27] <jinxed> brb
[01:27] <shmeelAway> two questions:  if i buy a PCMCIA soundcard, will it work on fiesty? and how do i get the fingerprint scanner working, what program?
[01:27] <tim167> mjr, xDCDX ok i'll check it thanks!
[01:28] <mjr> shmeelAway, 1) depends on the card 2) probably not, but I'm not sure
[01:28] <Scottc> hey why ubuntu look like mac so much?
[01:28] <Scottc> :O
[01:28] <mrrcp> sc0tt_,   ?
[01:28] <nickrud> jasper, are you using an ati card?
[01:28] <holycow> Scottc, why not?
[01:28] <shmeelAway> mjr, what card types work?
[01:28] <pieman> hern.. having some issues with SMP with my core 2 duo... for some odd reason /interrupts shows all 0's for core 1 and seems like core 0 is doing all the work and the flow is not sharing between both cores... so wondering if any other nforce 5 or 6 chipset  and core 2 duo people are having any issues like that...
[01:29] <jasper> nickrud: I'm using an nvidia 6600 GT with the latest drivers
[01:29] <Scottc> It looks like mac ok?
[01:29] <jdraper> what's a good X app for monitoring my net/cpu/mem load, battery status, etc?
[01:29] <nickrud> jasper, then I will just watch and learn :)
[01:29] <jdraper> im using fluxbox
[01:29] <mjr> shmeelAway, refer to http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/index.php?vendor=All#matrix
[01:29] <pieman> conky
[01:29] <holycow> shmeelAway, make sure the pcmcia card is known to have an open source driver and its available in your version of ubuntu
[01:29] <jdraper> i need something small
[01:29] <jdraper> conky is big
[01:29] <holycow> or what mjr said
[01:29] <pieman> edit conkyrc..........
[01:29] <shmeelAway> mjr, holycow alright thanks
[01:29] <mike71b> Sometimes I can display the contents of a widows share, I can read, copy from, and write to the folder.. 9 out of 10 times I get folder contents could not be displayed... flawless with 6.10, permissions aren't a problem what changed with samba b/t edgy feisty?
[01:29] <pieman> and make it small....
[01:29] <mjr> oops, actually that matrix is outdated, but it has the new link at top, http://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main
[01:29] <danlock2> okay, here goes nothing.... i'm starting to hate server edition
[01:30] <Scottc> srsly this thing looks like a mac clone
[01:30] <shmeelAway> mrj, everything listed on that page works?
[01:30] <mjr> shmeelAway, no. Read the legend.
[01:30] <shmeelAway> ahh k
[01:32] <Pelo> Scottc,  apple copies from the best
[01:32] <kitche> Scottc: gnome was actually used on Mac classic along ago
[01:32] <danlock2> okay, so, after i install openssh-server, i need to configure my stupid eth0
[01:32] <bododo> hi again :)
[01:33] <Slart> I'm having progblems with my Nforce4 on board soundcard (CK804, uses module snd_intel8x0). In my dmesg I get a line that says "[   38.505690]  Intel ICH: probe of 0000:00:0d.0 failed with error -12". What program/software is doing the probing? where can I find what this error message means?
[01:33] <jlu> kitche: you don't happen to know the command for changing video output in totem? there was some special program that had to be run, not like mplayer where you can change things from within the program...

[01:34] <Pelo> !sound | Slart   check your pm windows for a msg from ubotu
[01:34] <ubotu> Slart   check your pm windows for a msg from 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
[01:34] <kitche> jlu: nope but it's probably -nv maybe or xv added to the totem command
[01:34] <nickrud> bododo, there's an app called apt-zip: it will put the debs you need onto a removable device, like a thumbdrive
[01:34] <bododo> nickrud: is it available by default or should i install it?
[01:35] <jlu> kitche: it was gstreamer-config or something... hmm. thanks anyway...
[01:35] <VladimirBG> !dell
[01:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dell - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:35] <jlu> kitche: :)
[01:35] <nickrud> bododo, you'll need to install it, it's in universe

[01:35] <kitche> jlu: well it all depends on what totem is using sicne it can use gstreamer or xine think my way is the xine way
[01:35] <bododo> nickrud: thanks a bunch!! :)
[01:36] <nickrud> bododo, yw
[01:36] <jlu> kitche: would you say xine is better (to me it's just another acronym.. :) )
[01:36] <kitche> jlu: it might be but myself I use vlc since it handles everything that I want

[01:38] <nickrud> bododo, if I remember correctly, no. But, that was a long time ago, it may have gotten better.
[01:38] <bobbob1016> did anyone set up the seamless windows?
[01:38] <ubuntuEdgy> dose any one know why my "login sound" has stopped working after upgrading to feisty.
[01:38] <bododo> nickrud: ok, thanks again :)
[01:38] <dyrne> what is seamless? something using qemu?
[01:38] <Pelo> morodock_,   (hd0,0) means   hdA,B where A is the hdd and B is the partition,  the numberring system starts with 0,   check your grub menu for and copy the (hd0,0) of your regular ubuntu boot menu idem
[01:38] <makuseru> how can i extract a .7 archive

[01:39] <morodock_> Pelo: thanks man :)
[01:39] <bododo> nickrud: actually i'm used to fedora core, and i (shame on me) don't know how to install these downloaded packages on that connexion-less machine
[01:39] <Pelo> makuseru, using fileroller but you 'll need to add 7zip support, get if from synaptic
[01:39] <ubuntuEdgy> Pelo:i tryed that it wont even play the soounds
[01:39] <Pelo> ubuntuEdgy, check the forum
[01:40] <ubuntuEdgy> just silence, but i can hear the drums at start
[01:40] <nickrud> bododo, as a last resort, change to the directory where you mount the device, then sudo dpkg * will install all of the debs you've downloaded in a sane way
[01:40] <Manawyddan> Hi, everyone, can anyone give me a bit of information? i know this question may be off topic, but here it goes: Is it possible to install Ubuntu on an Apple computer with the new Intel Core CPU's?
[01:40] <Pelo> ubuntuEdgy,  make sure the path to the file is correct
[01:40] <nickrud> bododo, but I think I remember apt-zip writing a script for that
[01:41] <ubuntuEdgy> Pelo:  its correct /usr/share/sounds
[01:41] <Pelo> Manawyddan,  I think you are suppose to use the x86  cd to do that
[01:41] <bododo> nickrud: ok thank you! say i mkdir /mnt/virtual-usb-key will this make it? :)
[01:41] <Pelo> ubuntuEdgy, codecs ?
[01:41] <dyrne> Manawyddan: try the livecd
[01:41] <nickrud> bododo, if you just plug in the thumbdrive, it should automagically show up under /media
[01:41] <dyrne> Manawyddan: doesnt apple do some restricted bios thing though?
[01:41] <bododo> nickrud: no usb thumb right now :(

[01:43] <Manawyddan> dyrne: that's my doubt
[01:43] <Pelo> gravemind,  , rr_lap    this is the channel where you could get help but there doesn't seem to be anyone with the skills to help you atm , sorry

[01:44] <Manawyddan> but isn't the the version x86 only for 32bit computers?
[01:44] <nickrud> bododo, when I used it I had to create a partition for apt-zip to mount and unmount. It was written to scratch a particular person's itch. I'm reading the manpage now
[01:44] <Manawyddan> ok, thanks.
[01:44] <rr_lap> is it a driver issue?

[02:15] <jlu> ubuntonoob: ok, so i realize i don't know what i'm doing. i've instaled gparted. so, how do i resize my /dec/sda1 from 90 gb (79 gb free)? I need like 70 gb of unpartitioned space. you have time to help? pretty please? :)
[02:15] <Hanusz_Leszek> /ns set passwd sesame
[02:15] <Hanusz_Leszek> oops
[02:15] <ubuntunoob> Bradford : go to ubuntuguide.com - the answer is there
[02:15] <mike71b> LjL thanks , gedit was what I was looking for...
[02:15] <CCmonster> is there a way to change between Gnome and KDE?
[02:15] <LjL> !kde > CCmonster    (CCmonster, see the private message from Ubotu)
[02:16] <Hanusz_Leszek> what is the command to change the password on irc ?
[02:16] <oriez> there is any support of canon canoscan LiDE 70?
[02:16] <rr_lap> why cant i set mode monitor on my wifi card? it says mode cant be set, is it a driver issue?
[02:17] <ubuntunoob> CCmonster: ---> change session ---> choose KDE
[02:17] <xeratule> is there a fix for edubuntu package missing?
[02:17] <gravemind> hey does the ubuntu live cd do defragmentation for ntfs, so you get more space for your ubuntu partition :(
[02:17] <CCmonster> where is change session at?
[02:17] <LjL> !pm | Bradf0rd, i don't know how to use ntfs-3g either, i don't like to break drives
[02:17] <ubotu> Bradf0rd, i don't know how to use ntfs-3g either, i don't like to break drives: Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[02:17] <gravemind> oops, that hsould be a : )
[02:17] <LjL> just try and follow the instructions i guess
[02:17] <mike71b> thanks gksudo gedit worked great.
[02:18] <MezzoTiNt> since i installed feisty, whenever i put my laptop in standby for the second time, it just goes black and hangs, i'm afraid this is an X issue, but i'm not sure.. any clues ? ( xgl / ati )
[02:18] <LjL> CCmonster: your login screen.
[02:18] <mike71b> Hot to stop and restart samba?
[02:18] <LjL> mike71b:  sudo invoke-rc.d samba restart 
[02:18] <Bradf0rd> Does anyone know how to use ntfs-3g?
[02:18] <ubuntunoob> jlu: choose the partiotion, click resize change size to 12GB
[02:19] <barbarella_me> Hanusz_Leszek:/nickserv set passwd oldpassword newpas
[02:19] <CCmonster> LjL, so i set up group and users, and then went into terminal and sambpswd -a danah (gf's user name)
[02:19] <ubuntunoob> jlu: choose the partiotion, click resize change size to 12000
[02:19] <CCmonster> however, i still cannot access
[02:19] <admin_> hi all. i am wondering, how to set up a little script for shuting down other ubuntu computers via ssh... any ideas? i am a really stoopid programmer, btw....
[02:19] <jlu> ubuntonoob: hmm, it's greyed out. i wouldn't suppose it is a problem that it is my mounted system volume? :)
[02:19] <CCmonster> from her windows machine to my ubuntu machine
[02:19] <Punkunity> Myrtti, r u in here?
[02:20] <padee> hi all. i am wondering, how to set up a little script for shuting down other ubuntu computers via ssh... any ideas? i am a really stoopid programmer, btw....
[02:21] <Scottc> this kdevelop lacks intellisense.
[02:22] <yoho> ssh root@hostname shutdown -h 0
[02:22] <mike71b> How do I restart samba in Ubuntu tried services samba restart
[02:22] <ubuntunoob> CCmonster: you may have to log out : then before logging in look in the left corner amongst those for a change session radio-button, choose KDE, then say just for this session....have you installed KDE already?
[02:22] <LjL> mike71b: did  sudo invoke-rc.d samba restart  not work?
[02:23] <Punkunity> what is an easy program to use to make a website, kinda basic, but easy to manage?
[02:23] <CCmonster> its installing as we speak
[02:23] <holycow> Punkunity, the easiest is nvu
[02:23] <holycow> its in the repos
[02:23] <Punkunity> nvu is on feisty?
[02:23] <ubuntunoob> jlu: sorry, I dont know why it would be gryed out, soz
[02:23] <holycow> yep
[02:23] <Punkunity> ok ty
[02:23] <non|inear> i'm having problems with gedit and administrative stuff like users and groups, network, services, etc when i'm logged in root... when i try to open these things, the window is blank and can't load any files (in gedit)... can anyone help me figure out what is going on?
[02:23] <yoho> punku: a wiki
[02:24] <mike71b> I got an unknown initscript with  sudo invoke-rc.d samba restart
[02:24] <Punkunity> holycow nothing came up in synaptic for nvu
[02:24] <luiX_> hi
[02:24] <jlu> ubuntunoob: i'm guessing a livecd is the way to go...? so i can access unmounted partitions.
[02:24] <ubuntunoob> CCmonster, yeah ok, it'll be in the login screen then
[02:24] <holycow> Punkunity, enable all the other repos
[02:24] <LjL> mike71b: err, do you *have* samba installed? :-) (  apt-cache policy samba  will tell you)
[02:24] <Sleepy_Coder> non|inear: It could be that you're opening a file which doesn't exist....which would explain why the window is blank, because you just created it by opening it. :p
[02:24] <holycow> i think its in universe
[02:24] <yoho> usemodwiki is cool
[02:24] <Punkunity> how do i do that holycow, i think they are altready tho
[02:24] <CCmonster> do you use either kde or gnome?
[02:25] <Scottc> Is there any way to get anything like intellisense in kdevelop ?
[02:25] <Sleepy_Coder> Just a best guess though...
[02:25] <mike71b> Yeah, just edited my smb.conf
[02:25] <holycow> i don't have feisty here, i don't remember the app ... i think its systme / admin / software sources
[02:25] <ubuntunoob> jlu: aaahhh, youre in a livecd, thay "may" be the problem - have you mounted, and accessed the volume?
[02:25] <barbarella_me> mike71b:is there a samba in /etc/init.d ?
[02:25] <LjL> mike71b: that you have a smb.conf doesn't mean you have samba.
[02:26] <non|inear> sleepy: it happens when i try to open e.g. menu.lst from the console as root... i can only open it with nano, and when i try that i usually get an authentication eror even though i'm using the right pass.  ANd the only way i can access the network window is from a terminal using gksudo network-admin... and that only works &*sometimes*
[02:26] <ubuntunoob> CCmonster, I use gnome, cause its default, but KDE has good audio apps that i use
[02:26] <jlu> ubuntunoob: no, i'm not in a livecd now. but the partition i want to resize is my mounted ubuntu primary partition. so, i maybe need to use the "gparted livecd" to access the system without it being mounted.... hmm?
[02:26] <fouressence> I've mirrored the entire Ubuntu repository and burned them onto DVDs (dialup at home), but I'm having trouble getting apt-get to use them instead of downloading everything.
[02:27] <CCmonster> i like amarok alot, but it wont flippin run
[02:27] <non|inear> sleepyL when i try to open menyu.lst in gedit, gedit loads but the file doen'st load.  evewntually i force the app to quit
[02:27] <mike71b>  Figured it was using samba in nautilus I can browse to the windows shares... that's smb yes?
[02:27] <CCmonster> it keeps locking up anytime i add to my playlist
[02:27] <LjL> mike71b: no
[02:27] <fouressence> When I have only the dvds in sources.list, it works, but if I also add the online sources, the online ones take over for *everything*
[02:27] <CCmonster> if i logout and switch managers, will it close my programs?
[02:27] <LjL> mike71b: well, yes, it's "smb", but Samba is a server
[02:27] <barbarella_me> mike71b:the client, not the server
[02:27] <kaiechi> can any1 help me, the scroll wheel of my USB mouse doesnt work
[02:28] <ubuntunoob> jlu: oh i get you now - yeah that would be the easy way out. I use hiren's boot cd 8 for that sort of thing though
[02:28] <Punkunity> holycow???
[02:28] <LjL> fouressence: tried just reversing the order?
[02:28] <jlu> ubuntonoob: ah, thanks! you're the most knowledgable noob ever! ;)
[02:29] <fouressence> LjL: Mhmm.  Tried it both ways...
[02:29] <Sleepy_Coder> non|inear: "menyu.lst" doesn't exist. 0.o  Was that a typo?
[02:29] <Punkunity> whats the nvu massive pack?
[02:29] <LjL> Sleepy_Coder: menu.lst
[02:29] <padee> hi all. i am wondering, how to set up a little script for shuting down other ubuntu computers via ssh... any ideas?
[02:29] <non|inear> sleepy: sorry, menu.lst.  i type sloppy and lazy to fix errors:)
[02:29] <ubuntunoob> jlu: hey i was able to resize a partition on my other system using my 6.10 livecd
[02:30] <Sleepy_Coder> Hmm, then I'm clueless. :)  I thought you might have just created a file "menyu.lst". :D
[02:30] <non|inear> hehe
[02:30] <non|inear> i wish that was the prob :)
[02:30] <bulle> padee: just have it execute "shutdown -h now"
[02:30] <Sleepy_Coder> LjL:  I have a picture to show you later of how I tweaked my menu.lst. :D  So freaking rad.
[02:30] <bulle> padee: you might have to add a line to sudo that allows that command for that particular user, without password
[02:31] <tokyo25> when i download a music file from isohunt and try to play it. it ays its encrypted, anything i can do?
[02:31] <jlu> ubuntunoob: thanks for all your help. now - bed. tomorrow - resize partition! ;)
[02:31] <non|inear> it's frustrating to make such a simple edit by having to open menu.lst, edit, save a copy in home, and move to the right dir as root LOL
[02:31] <ubuntunoob> jlu: good lu k :)
[02:31] <Wiseguy> hey guys, are there any tools for mounting dvd images so they act like it was actually burned... daemon tools for windows is the equivalent of what im looking for

[02:32] <Neil-> HEy all, anyone know about SABnzb?
[02:32] <Sleepy_Coder> non|inear: lol
[02:32] <LjL> Wiseguy: also, there is the "gmountiso" package that lets you do that in a GUI
[02:32] <Neil-> Need http-proxy support for nzb grabbing
[02:32] <polysynaptic> anybody able to help with wireless on Feisty?
[02:32] <Sleepy_Coder> non|inear: You could try installing a different text editor.  MousePad?  Or.....er....I dunno what else.
[02:32] <Sleepy_Coder> non|inear: Or re-installing gedit. 0.o
[02:32] <Quixotic> hi
[02:32] <Wiseguy> LjL cool thanks
[02:32] <Sleepy_Coder> Okay, here's how I wasted 6 hours. :p   http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b100/photoricon/too_much_free_time.jpg
[02:32] <lokk> does anyone know where I can get the Rhythmlet gdesklet data, i installed the the latest gdesklet data files but the rhythmlet ones still don't work
[02:32] <Quixotic> is there any other ubuntu related chat rooms on this server that arent for tech support ?
[02:33] <fouressence> polysynaptic: I could certainly give it a try. :)  Just got it working for myself.
[02:33] <Sleepy_Coder> Well, not quite 6 hours... (exaggeration, but whatever)
[02:33] <bulle> padee: yes, just write a bash script
[02:33] <Neil-> Anyone know if sabnzbd can use a http proxy?

[02:34] <Quixotic> thx ljl
[02:34] <ubuntunoob> non|inear: pico --- insert file  directory-----
[02:34] <Wiseguy> LjL, or maybe french :P
[02:34] <polysynaptic> I've removed network-manager and network-manager gnome and configured my /etc/network/interfaces with the PSK in text and hex
[02:34] <MezzoTiNt> Sleepy_Coder: that looks awesome :P
[02:34] <polysynaptic> rebooted both my router and my machine and still unable to connect
[02:34] <Sleepy_Coder> MezzoTiNt: Thanks. :D  It was fun. :)
[02:34] <fouressence> polysynaptic: I'm using the ra73, so more-or-less close.  I'd recommend downloading the serialmonkey drivers:
[02:35] <fouressence> polysynaptic: Actually, let me back up a little: does your wireless card work yet?
[02:35] <polysynaptic> I did that too. using this tutorial http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=241565
[02:35] <Tarkus> variant, you still there?
[02:36] <polysynaptic> foure: yes, worked perfectly in Dapper about two days ago
[02:36] <variant> Tarkus: yes, only just
[02:36] <MezzoTiNt> anyone here ran into trouble with xgl and suspend ? the first suspend works, the second hangs the machine >.<
[02:37] <fouressence> polysynaptic: Alrighty.  There are some differences though between Dapper and Feisty, apparently, in regards to wireless...  Have you gone through the serialmonkey tutorial for Feisty?
[02:37] <variant> Tarkus: y0, yes i am
[02:37] <fouressence> **tutorial while using Fesity (not a specific feisty one. puh)
[02:38] <Tarkus> variant, well, i just installed ubuntu, and all my folders are there in /home and /home/mike was created.. i tried to move the folders into /home/mike but it wont let me.. no permissions
[02:38] <padee> bulle: wohaa... that looks fairly complicated... i am a really bad programmer... hm... does that have something to do with cgi? perl?
[02:38] <bododo> hi folks
[02:38] <polysynaptic> fouressence: I may have, can you post me a link?
[02:38] <Tarkus> variant, but, whats really wierd is that i have permissions to move the stuff thats inside those folders..
[02:39] <bododo> i'm trying this:  sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx but this doesn't find any package, is it because i'm on a ppc?
[02:39] <polysynaptic> http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=21765&sid=b926f1d0ac2731c401bc3b0cb2a6227b
[02:39] <fouressence> polysynaptic: I mean just installing the serialmoney drivers in Feisty.  The Dapper stuff confused things a bit.
[02:39] <polysynaptic> confusing that it worked in Dapper, I installed Feisty and it won't work now?
[02:39] <bododo> where install xorg-driver-fglrx is?
[02:39] <Sleepy_Coder> LjL?  Can I PM you something?
[02:39] <variant> Tarkus: yeah, whatever permisions that existed on the files previously are interfearing with your current attempts to move them
[02:40] <fouressence> polysynaptic: That's what I'm saying --there seem to be strange differences like that.
[02:40] <Tarkus> variant, previously they had all permssions to all users, afaik..
[02:40] <polysynaptic> yes, I have installed the serialmonkey drivers. the tutorial in this link is what I was referring to http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=241565

[02:42] <variant> tokyo25: no
[02:42] <bododo> personne? :(
[02:42] <tokyo25> ok
[02:42] <variant> tokyo25: it's not something you can reliably mesure
[02:42] <fouressence> polysynaptic: Arrrff, sorry, I have to get going.
[02:42] <MezzoTiNt> bododo: i'm using fglrx and glx
[02:42] <Tarkus> variant, alright, so i run that command to every folder in /home beside /home/mike (replace theDir with the folder name) correct?
[02:42] <MezzoTiNt> stuff..
[02:42] <variant> Tarkus: yep
[02:42] <tokyo25> mayve sum1 shud start a survey? ;)
[02:42] <Tarkus> variant, besides*
[02:42] <bododo> MezzoTiNt: i can't install it, is it because i'm on a ppc?
[02:42] <variant> Tarkus: then you should be able to move them into /home/mike
[02:42] <variant> Tarkus: absolutly NOT /home/mike though
[02:42] <Tarkus> variant, alright. thanks, gonna do that now
[02:43] <bododo> MezzoTiNt:  sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx ? right?
[02:43] <bododo> that doesn't work for me :(
[02:43] <MezzoTiNt> bododo: welll... did u have to add repositories ?
[02:43] <Sleepy_Coder> Okay, well, if there happen to be any opers for this channel listening, this should so go in the topic--if nobody minds me sayin so:  [17:37:14]  <non|inear> thanks so much for your help!  the support in this commonuity is unbeleivable

[02:44] <variant> dooglus: never crashes for me
[02:44] <Sleepy_Coder> I just felt warm and fuzzy inside for like 2 secs. :p
[02:44] <dooglus> variant: so you advice is that I should steal your computer?
[02:45] <variant> Tarkus: check the file permissions on them but if they are owned by anyone other than a user named "mike" then yes
[02:45] <variant> dooglus: you can have it seeing as it's al aptop and the screen broke yesterday
[02:45] <bododo> MezzoTiNt: still here, bro?
[02:45] <Tarkus> variant, it didnt work
[02:46] <variant> Tarkus: what command are you using?
[02:46] <variant> Tarkus: and what error did you get?
[02:46] <Tarkus> variant, it spat out a line for ever file in /music (thats the one i did first) and said 'operation not permited' beside them..
[02:46] <dooglus> is there any way I can get firefox to at least dump core when it crashes, so I can raise a reasonable bug report?
[02:46] <MezzoTiNt> bododo: i think i found the issue...
[02:46] <fsckr> to mp3's with amarok is all i need is the gstreamer?

[02:48] <owh> I am trying to setup postfix to use gmail as the smtp smart host. Using this recipe: http://prantran.blogspot.com/2007/01/getting-postfix-to-work-on-ubuntu-with.html -- my mail comes in via fetchmail.

My thumb drives are no longer automounting and I could not eject my cd drive without sticking a pin in the little hole on my drive to force it to eject. Also now have a locked folder called My Book which is my external hdd, but its not even plugged in now. Now my cdrom won't mount automatically like it usually does and...
[03:00] <Alonea> ...its a lot of trouble for me to figure out how to mount each one in new folders that I have to make and keep track of it.

[03:00] <r5a> no effect

[03:01] <Don> Do you mean there is a "safemode" for Firefox?

[03:09] <eck> r5a: i think there's something you can dpkg-reconfigure that will guide you through autodetecting the keyboard; in the text installer there is a whole set of steps where you enter the letters you see and it detects what layout you have
[03:09] <basbhat> no im doing it for educational purposes

[03:18] <r5a> eck any more suggestions
[03:18] <nekyinboots> Thanks rAstari
[03:18] <r5a> agh
[03:18] <tritium> r5a: growling, etc. doesn't help us help you solve your problem

[03:18] <abg> i have an dell inspiron 6000 with an ati graphics card in it, so i installed the fglrx ati driver and i was able to get 1280x800 resolution, but when i connect my laptop to a larger monitor than normally runs at 1280x1024, i can't go higher than the 1280x800
[03:18] <tritium> In fact, it just spams the channel...
[03:18] <ncd> but i cant action his resolution
[03:18] <abg> does anyone have any idea how i can get it higher?
[03:18] <r5a> so then rather have me sit here doing nothing, you can just tell me you dont know tritium
[03:19] <eck> r5a: no, it must be a keyboard layout issue. maybe you should get a more standard keyboard ;-
[03:19] <Tarkus> tritium, actually. its because i "just" installed ubuntu, its the 4th time because i tend to screw things up alot. specially because im new to linux. is there a way that i can revert all my configuration data and system files to like when i first installed?
[03:19] <tritium> r5a: and you can stop spamming the channel
[03:19] <rAstari> nekyinboots: sorry emant mediacoder, find it in sourceforge
[03:19] <Tarkus> tritium, so right now i dont have any programs installed.
[03:19] <rr_lap> how do i enable my wireless card to allow me to set Monitor mode?
[03:19] <ncd> the problem of not entering DRI mode eck
[03:19] <mike71b> How do you install windows to a free partition after ubuntu is there? How do you get the boot manager back ?
[03:19] <r5a> a more standard keybord, nice.
[03:19] <r5a> peace guys
[03:19] <unc`matt> hi, can someone help me configure my alsamixer to my Audigy2 in ubuntu 7.04
[03:19] <eck> Tarkus: if you backup /etc, ~/.gconf and ~/.local that will be most of the config stuff
[03:20] <rAstari> nekyinboots: its a transcoder, good for encoding, decoding, heaps of formats and addons
[03:20] <tritium> Tarkus: most configuration is saved in /etc for system-wide stuff.  Back it up.
[03:20] <eck> Tarkus: there are a few other dot files/folders in your home dir that you might be interested in beyond that
[03:20] <nekyinboots> good
[03:20] <ncd> if you look at that url youll see
[03:20] <nekyinboots> I detest wmv files, change them to divx
[03:20] <eck> Tarkus: you will learn more if you don't reinstall and just try to fix the problem, though
[03:21] <ncd> but i dont have the /usr/lib/opengl directory or entry in my ld.so.conf
[03:21] <mike71b> How do you install windows to a free partition after ubuntu is there? How do you get the boot manager back ?
[03:21] <eck> ncd: run xdpyinfo
[03:22] <Tarkus> eck, but if i fix the problem, i always think that my os is still crippled and im just using a "workarround", rather than if i install a fresh ubuntu, it will be for sure performing normally..
[03:22] <Don> OK.  Here is a strange on.  Everything is working on 7.04 except Firefox.  Some websites it works fine.  But most sites only load part of the page or none of it at all.  It will just sit and spin without completing the page load.  This started happening after upgrading from 6.10 to 7.04.  It also happens when running from the Live CD.  To make it more interesting, it does the same thing on the Fedora 7 RC 3 LiveCD.  It runs Firefox 2.0.0.3.
[03:22] <jlu> mike71b: good question - i'd like to know too.!
[03:22] <rAstari> nekyinboots: i do that to my wmvs with mediacoder, it even encodes .VOB directly to divx
[03:22] <tritium> Tarkus: not necessarily
[03:22] <eck> ncd: or i guess it should be glxinfo. either way, you should have dri
[03:22] <nekyinboots> mike71b try a floppy boot disc, then mount to the partition you want
[03:22] <obiwan_> why isn't thunderbird in the feisty-repos ???
[03:22] <ncd> glxinfo is reporting No.
[03:22] <lineman60> I have a .net project that i need to edit, and recomplie (i have no problem cross complieing) any editer that will import a .net project?
[03:22] <eck> Tarkus: no, to fix a problem is usually never more than editing a couple of config files, there is nothing to worry about wrt the system being "crippled"
[03:22] <dustpyle_x2> obiwan_, try mozilla-thunderbird
[03:23] <eck> Tarkus: it is easy to completely remove a service and reinstall it anyway, if you want to go that route
[03:23] <mike71b> I've gotten beryl working nicely, and want to put windows onto some free space. How do I get grub back after installing windows ?
[03:23] <Pelo> !grub | mike71b
[03:23] <ubotu> mike71b: 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
[03:23] <dustpyle_x2> mike71b, sudo grub-install /dev/hda (or sda)

[03:23] <ncd> libGL error: dlopen /usr/lib/dri/i915_dri.so failed (/usr/lib/dri/i915_dri.so: undefined symbol: _glapi_add_dispatch)
[03:23] <mike71b> great thank you guys!
[03:24] <eck> Tarkus: any changes that you don't explicitly make outside of your home directory can be easilery reverted, usually by just removing the dot folder wehre the configuration data is stored and letting it regenerate itself witht hte default settings
[03:24] <dustpyle_x2> mike71b, you'd have to use a live disc probably
[03:24] <Nergar> i just upgraded to feisty but now oofice is missing its icons, so the new document button says "new document" instead of the icon

[03:25] <cables> Nergar, try going to Settings, and changing the icon theme under View.

[03:27] <ncd> kk sorry how with apt ?
[03:27] <eck> rAstari: so you are just doing full partition dumps and then plan to do a full restore from that if you need to restore data for one program, because you don't know where the data is kept?

[03:28] <tritium> ncd: apt-cache search libgl to see what's available, to start.  If there were an available update, though, you'd get it through the update manager.
[03:28] <rr_lap> f0rtune: chicago FTW!!

[03:28] <Matir> does anyone know if the adobe flash player license prohibits installation by default?  i.e., is there a reason ubuntu cannot have it installed by default?
[03:29] <eck> Matir: it is not installed by default because it is not compatible with the DFSG
[03:29] <rAstari> eck: no, I do full partition copies while Im asleep, so that the next day I can experiment, content that I can get back to where I was without spending hours figuring what I tripped up

[03:33] <eck> gravemind: read the topic in #ubuntu-read-topic
[03:33] <Pelo> gravemind,  it's a flaw in norton I think ,  it picks up the string start keylog...  and disconnects to prevent a keylogger from starting,  it was very popular last year,  ppl were  spamming oponent channels with it
[03:33] <tritium> gravemind: somebody used an exploit.
[03:33] <kitche> Pelo it's deals ewith routers not nortons but they thought it was nortons

I've read a lot of tutorials about installing Ubuntu, I've run the Live CD for a while, and on my attempted install everything seems to work fine... until I reboot and recieve the simple message of "boot error".  I've read somewhere that I should try to restore Grub or something similar, but before I spend another few hours reinstal

[03:50] <maxbeatt> 64MB
[03:50] <Pelo> paradon_,  I beleive that there is an option that will let run fcsk automaticaly at your next reboot,  but I dont, knowwhwat it is ,  check the man page
[03:50] <ncd> wow
[03:50] <f0rtune> mmm anyone know why im not viewing all the packets in my network with wireshark?
[03:50] <non|inear> tritium: well basically, i am unable to open any app from a terminal using gkedit... and the pass-dependent stuff in gnome menu System don't work... like users & Groups and Network and Services... i can get into some of these from a terminal, but not always.  some i can't access at all.
[03:50] <ncd> beryl workage..
[03:50] <tritium> kurushi: don't worry, we appreciate you putting it all in one line :)
[03:50] <ncd> but nearly broke my poor cpus & gpus back
[03:50] <ncd> heheh
[03:50] <tritium> non|inear: I know.  I'm just stating that it's not a bug affecting lots of users.
[03:50] <ncd> ah jooooy
[03:51] <Pelo> f0rtune,  try for a wireshark channel
[03:51] <maxbeatt> it's an old Gateway Profile (1st gen) so it's near impossible to upgrade
[03:51] <Pelo> kurushi,  are you dual booting vista ?
[03:51] <non|inear> Pelo: when I use sudo, the terminal asks for a pass, i enter a pass and it doen't do anything... just freezes  :( the only way to edit files is copy them, edit them, then overwrite in original dir under root... PITA!
[03:51] <daveshere> f0rtune: prolly using a switch
[03:51] <Don> maxbeatt: Don't even try Ubuntu.  Grab Xubuntu and make sure you grab the alternate image.
[03:51] <Pelo> non|inear,  I know it's not a fix but have you tried running xterm ?
[03:51] <maxbeatt> whats with the alternate image?
[03:51] <non|inear> tritius: thanks for your help!  is there any idea of what is the common property of affected systems?
[03:52] <[Neurotic] > after the pxe install, I run 'startx' and it tells me that it isn't installed
[03:52] <non|inear> pelo: not sure what xterm is... new to gnome
[03:52] <Don> maxbeatt:  http://cdimages.ubuntu.com/xubuntu/releases/feisty/release/  scroll down to the Alternate install CD
[03:52] <tritium> non|inear: I'm not aware of _any_ other affected systems
[03:52] <kurushi> pelo: no.  I tried to wipe both drives (140 mb and 40 mb) before I started, I've tried various partitions, but I've been keeping the swap and / on the 40mb one, as a friend reccomended that.
[03:52] <tritium> non|inear: are you using "sudo -i", or how are you using sudo?
[03:52] <non|inear> tritius: k, thanks :)
[03:52] <paradon_> Pelo: I know how to make it check on the next boot (with tune2fs) but I specifically need to add the "-c -c" options (to surface scan for bad blocks) and as far as I can tell, tune2fs won't let me do that.
[03:52] <Pelo> non|inear,  just a different terminal app,  make a launcher on your desktop and put xterm for a command line
[03:52] <non|inear> trituis: just sudo <whatever>
[03:53] <Don> maxbeatt:  Xubuntu is much better suited for old hardware with limited memory
[03:53] <non|inear> Pelo: ok i'll try that
[03:53] <noname1> whats that network icon called that comes default with 7.04?
[03:53] <noname1> network-manager?
[03:53] <ncd> tnx too all for you bits of help here and there over the last couple of days
[03:53] <Pelo> kurushi,  are you booting from the 40 gig hdd ?
[03:53] <maxbeatt> Don: big thanks for the recommendation. def sounds like waht i need
[03:53] <bimberi> noname1: yes
[03:53] <ncd> what a blast.. eh
[03:53] <Don> The "Alternate install CD" is made for systems with limited memory.  Good luck!
[03:53] <maxbeatt> nice
[03:53] <maxbeatt> ty ty
[03:53] <Pelo> paradon_,  it was a suggestion,
[03:54] <Don> Send the pizza to Lafayette, IN ;)
[03:54] <tritium> Don: I used to live there :)
[03:54] <noname1> weird, I can't get the stupid icon for network-manager to appear
[03:54] <Don> Purdue, baby!
[03:54] <latinoguy> i can not install flash player on festyfawn 7.04 for amd 64
[03:54] <tritium> Yep.
[03:54] <Pelo> noname1,  and I can'T get rid of it , wannna trade ?
[03:54] <latinoguy> plaease tell me a simple way to do it
[03:54] <kurushi> Pelo: as far as I know.  I suppose I should duck out, reboot, and make sure
[03:54] <latinoguy> i already down load the file but no advance
[03:54] <maxbeatt> puck furdue ;) i go to IU
[03:54] <kurushi> thanks
[03:55] <noname1> Pelo : he he. I did an apt-get remove...
[03:55] <Pelo> latinoguy,  there is no simple way to do it
[03:55] <Don> He he!
[03:55] <noname1> and then an apt-get install... and it's gone.
[03:55] <non|inear> pelo: i tried xterm, and i get the same authentication error...  i think the problem is with authentication and not the terminal
[03:55] <Don> I take back all my advise and require beer with my pizza!
[03:55] <tritium> maxbeatt: heh.  I'm no fan either.  I did undergrad at ND.  Go Irish!  ;)
[03:55] <latinoguy> Pelo: can you tell me the way
[03:55] <maxbeatt> lol
[03:55] <Pelo> non|inear,  well at least that narrowed it down a bit
[03:56] <Pelo> !flash64 | latinoguy  follow these instructions
[03:56] <ubotu> latinoguy  follow these instructions: You can run Flash, Real, and Java plugins in AMD64 bit computers with Firefox. see the steps to follow at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FirefoxAMD64FlashJava
[03:56] <Don> latinoguy: I don't think there is a flash plugin for the 64 bit platform.
[03:56] <Don> I think you need to get the 32 bit firefox so you can run the 32 bit plugin.
[03:56] <[Neurotic] > how do I setup gnome, when it doesn't seem to have been installed by default?
[03:56] <non|inear> Pelo: yea totally, thanks for your help!  now that i've identified a bug number (just IDed like 5 minutes ago), it will be much easier for me to find what resources exist on web... gonna look now
[03:57] <baghyay> salut
[03:57] <latinoguy> Don: and how can i change to firefox 32 bits

[04:02] <ioerror> Why does /etc/security/limits.conf not affect actual limits on dapper drake? If I set a ulimit as root, it works (say: ulimit -n 32000). If I set that same thing in /etc/security/limits.conf, even after a reboot, it doesn't take. the max number of open file descriptors appears to always be reset to 1024.

[04:06] <Pelo> latinoguy,  the conventional wisdom currently is don'T use 64 unless you have a good reason to,  stuff like flash and java donT' work or aren'T up to scratch
[04:06] <Pelo> anandanbu,  are you the owner of this hdd ?
[04:06] <latinoguy> Pelo: so your reomation is to use the 7.04 for x86
[04:06] <anandanbu> yeah
[04:06] <Pelo> latinoguy,  yes
[04:07] <kentbye> Is there a commandline program or grep options that will display the text between two strings -- like the text between "<!-- BEGIN -->" & "<!-- END -->" ?
[04:07] <latinoguy> and can i use it with the atholon 64 dual core?
[04:07] <anandanbu> i have the windows contents that is all the binary files which i dont need anymore
[04:07] <PeterUnique> Is it hard to get software with 64bit Ubuntu?  I've tried it and noticed I couldn't get a flash plugin for firefox.  Any other big ones I'd be missing?
[04:07] <obiwan_> my version of mozilla-thunderbird out of feisty-main is 1.5.x - how can i get v2.0 with apt-get tool (unstable?, testing or...?)
[04:07] <kevev> crimsun: did you leave?????
[04:07] <Pelo> anandanbu,  if you just want to format it , you can probably do it with gparted, menu > system > admin > gnome partition manager ( gparted)  but you might have to install it, it is not part fo the default install    sudo apt-get install gparted
[04:07] <Rob07> what is the best utorrent client to use
[04:08] <anandanbu> ok ill do it now and reply
[04:08] <Rob07> well not utorrent but torrent
[04:08] <Pelo> obiwan_,  I don'T think you can apt-get it,  you'll need to get a deb package from the site or compile the source
[04:08] <deus> What program is used to configure the powersave and power usage to a cpu??
[04:08] <deserteagle> does anyone have the Image Zoom plugin installed on their firefox?
[04:08] <Pelo> Rob07,  utorrent is the best,  running on wine
[04:08] <Qix> Not sure what the protocol is around here, but I need some help with my WUSB54GC and Feisty...
[04:08] <latinoguy> so the last question, can i install the festyfawn x86 version in an atholon 64 ?
[04:09] <Pelo> deserteagle,  I do are you having trouble with it ?
[04:09] <deserteagle> yeah
[04:09] <Pelo> latinoguy,  yes
[04:09] <latinoguy> ok thanks Pelo i will startover again
[04:09] <Pelo> deserteagle,  are you gonna make me guess or are you gonna tell me the problem ?
[04:09] <obiwan_> Pelo: ok - gracias
[04:09] <deserteagle> if i configure it to use the right click for the scrolling to be effective, it won't work
[04:09] <latinoguy> this is funny im learning a lot
[04:10] <deserteagle> but if i tell it to use the middle button, everything works
[04:10] <Pelo> deserteagle, oh,  don'T know aboutthat one,  try asking in #firefox
[04:10] <deserteagle> kthx
[04:10] <Pelo> latinoguy,  welcome to the wonderfull world of linux where ou have to use your brain
[04:10] <Qix> I've been using my brain for two days now and I still can't get my wireless link to work
[04:11] <Qix> :-P
[04:11] <Pelo> !wifi | Qix   ,  and also check the forum for your hardware
[04:11] <ubotu> Qix   ,  and also check the forum for your hardware: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:11] <beer> does anyone have Linphone running on ubuntu?
[04:11] <Rob07> yea no kidding its like one puzzle after another.
[04:12] <Qix> Well, the problem is that I have actually followed every piece of documentation out there... but no go
[04:12] <Pelo> Rob07, I'm up to the point where I look for stuff to fix on mine
[04:12] <Rob07> haha
[04:12] <anandanbu> pelo there is no option to format the portable drive in gparted as it shows
[04:12] <Pelo> Qix,  what would be your specific problem then ?
[04:12] <Qix> I am getting 100% utilization on my processor when the driver is active
[04:12] <anandanbu> its a ntfs drive
[04:12] <morodock_> !webcam

[04:12] <Qix> it is a Linksys WUSB54GC adapter
[04:13] <Pelo> anandanbu,   to the right of the tool bar  select your hdd in the drop down list,   remove current partitions, and create new ones
[04:13] <Pelo> Qix,  which driver would that be ?
[04:13] <YueBuQun> Ubuntu plans mobile Linux version
[04:14] <Qix> the driver that came with Feisty didn't work at all, so I compiled the RALINK driver
[04:14] <anandanbu> pelo can you explain me a bit clearly i cant get you
[04:14] <mikedep333> hey, how do I configure runlevels (other than using system > administration > services as that does not show every service)?
[04:14] <Pelo> anandanbu,  in gparted,  select the usb hdd from the drop down list on the far right of the tool bar
[04:15] <anandanbu> ok i have done that but the gparted shows a lock icon near the drive
[04:15] <Pelo> anandanbu,  then in the large windows in the lower half of gparted you will see the partitions on that hdd,  ( probably just one ),  right click on it and remove it ,  then righcick the empty space  and add a new partition
[04:16] <Pelo> anandanbu,  right lcick on the partiton and select unmount
[04:16] <Qix> the RT73 serialmonkey driver caused the same instability in my system
[04:16] <anandanbu> yeah i have unmounted it
[04:16] <anandanbu> then
[04:16] <Qix> (same as the official ralink driver, that is)
[04:16] <mikedep333> anyone?
[04:17] <Pelo> Qix,  there donT, seem to be any member familar with wireless issues in at the moment , maybe you can try at a different time of day or try and do some more reading
[04:17] <Pelo> anandanbu,  then remove the current partition and create a new one
[04:17] <Qix> ok Pelo... thanks
[04:18] <anandanbu> yeah Pelo i can format it now thank you very much for the help

[04:29] <cafuego> For the record, a warning is not an error.
[04:30] <Gerro> senniha9: from the windows driver you will need bcml5.inf and bcml5.sys
[04:30] <darnell> soundjuice only extracts music from cd's..
[04:30] <darnell> it doesnt write to cd's
[04:30] <WaxyFresh> cafuego: do you know how i can fix it?
[04:30] <Gerro> senniha9: use ndiswrapper to load the bcml5.inf then modprobe it and stuff, seriously should check the forum has easy guide for that
[04:30] <Zanth_> good day, does anyone know if an ubuntu live disc has usb2 and ntfs support?
[04:30] <rAstari> When trying to run synaptic, or some other progs, I get this "Unable to copy the user's Xauthorization file" Help
[04:30] <wlnet> Any reason(s) why Dell chooses ubuntu?
[04:31] <aj_> i have a problem i tried to manually the ati driver because i couldn't play ut2004 and now it says my gl version is like 1.4 its the mesa lib
[04:31] <Pelo> darnell, serpentine then, but for the k3b stuff you might want to find a k3b channel
[04:31] <WaxyFresh> wlnet: beaus eit kicks all sorts of butt
[04:31] <Puppy_> I would like to download/install gizmo project. It is not in the repositories. Is there any way I can add it to the repositories?
[04:31] <Gerro> Zanth_: make your usb fat32 its faster than ntfs with more space and works on any operating system
[04:31] <lasking> wo will go to watch Olympic Games next year?
[04:31] <WaxyFresh> because it^^
[04:31] <aj_> i think i went back to the restricted ati driver but still the openGL version is that mesa version
[04:31] <wlnet> WaxyFresh: don't get it.
[04:31] <rAstari> darnell:serpentine works ok
[04:31] <Gerro> Zanth_: and usb2.0 yes if your hardware can do it
[04:31] <Zanth_> Gerro: I was hoping to actually mount a mangled ntfs HD and then transfer to a flash drive via usb2
[04:31] <darnell> it didnt work for me either..
[04:32] <WaxyFresh> wlnet: you asked why dell choose ubuntu,becasue ubuntu is awsome
[04:32] <nonlinear> quick quesiotn.... is it possible to make an option to boot from CD rom in grub? my attempt didn't work (got invalide partoin error wsomething).  i was using: #title CD/DVD #root (cdrom0) #savedefault
[04:32] <darnell> holdon, ill give u the error message
[04:32] <Gerro> Zanth_: it can read ntfs but you will need a special program called captive ntfs to wrap the windows programs that are used to access ntfs
[04:32] <lasking> dell choose ubuntu? really?
[04:32] <wlnet> WaxyFresh: awesome, you mean. your first time was in riddle.
[04:32] <stanthecaddy22> nonlinear: Usually you set that option in your BIOS settings
[04:32] <Gerro> Zanth: I mean you will need that if you want to "write" to ntfs
[04:33] <stanthecaddy22> nonlinear: have it check for CD boot before booting to hard drive
[04:33] <wlnet> WaxyFresh: every other distro can claim that.
[04:33] <darnell> Can only use growisofs on a single track
[04:33] <darnell> that is what it says
[04:33] <Zanth_> Gerro: no need ot write, I just need to extract two folders then I'm removing the drive in this laptop and installing a new one
[04:33] <nonlinear> stanthecaddy22: yea, but i would like to add the CD option to grub, so that I don't have to hit F12 if i want to boot CD... i can just select it in grub
[04:33] <Pelo> darnell, isn't growisofs something to make cd images ?
[04:33] <wlnet> WaxyFresh: ubuntu is now owned by that businessman Shuttleworth? is this the guy that had been to space?
[04:33] <Puppy_> Can anyone help me add gizmo project to the repositories? Or tell me that it is impossible.
[04:34] <nonlinear> stanthecaddy22: yea, i can do it in bios but i'm lazy and it would be nice to have in grub
[04:34] <Gerro> Zanth_: oh wait there is also ntfs-3g that will write to it, it can read ntfs easily though
[04:34] <Zanth_> Gerro: all from the live disc?
[04:34] <darnell> dude, i dont know what it is, i just need to write mp3's to a disk..
[04:34] <stanthecaddy22> nonlinear: ah, my mistake then, I can't help ya there. Good luck though
[04:34] <Gerro> Zanth_: yep
[04:34] <darnell> maybe vista will do it.
[04:34] <nonlinear> but in looking on google, i haven't found anything... does grub ID the cd and cdrom0?
[04:34] <nonlinear> ^^ as* cdrom0
[04:35] <Gerro> Zanth_: just be sure to extract the data to a place to save and not onto your desktop (it will be in ram if you do that)
[04:35] <Zanth_> thanks Gerro
[04:35] <Zanth_> Gerro: cool I'll be sure to do that

[04:35] <Pelo> Rageagainstthis, try asking in #winehq
[04:36] <nonlinear> i guess the easiest way to find out is to just go into grub, edit the commands, and just trial and error  LOL..   thanks stanthecaddy22!
[04:36] <darnell> copy mp3's to a cd
[04:36] <Rageagainstthis> well to winehq i go

[04:45] <asherZ> Bradf0rd: i think you need the codec

[05:07] <lethu> Bradf0rd, yeah I like it and use it too : )
[05:07] <levmatta> first you need to resize your primary partition then create a secundary one
[05:07] <Pelo> helplol,  ok lets see if your freind left windows installed on your computer,   type alt+f2  and type sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst     look at the last few lines of the files see if windows in mentionned ,  don'T edit it or save it
[05:08] <mobutu> Feisty doesn't have gparted anymore?  I did not know that
[05:08] <silversky9> it won't let me resize it
[05:08] <levmatta> as Iunderstand you are have trouble resizing
[05:08] <Bradf0rd> lethu, do you use compiz?
[05:08] <helplol> lol pelo what is all hat!!!!!
[05:08] <gradin> allianne: i'm not able to get outside my network from a static ip
[05:08] <silversky9> and i'm using a live CD
[05:08] <gradin> the ip address is set to 192.168.0.100
[05:08] <levmatta> what is the error, or the interface does not let you do it?
[05:08] <lethu> Bradf0rd, nop cause it borks my brightness setting in videos
[05:08] <gradin> the gateway is 192.168.0.1 and the subnet masks work
[05:09] <WaxyFresh> helplol: just type alt and the f2 key
[05:09] <Bradf0rd> lethu, what's that mean? I still haven't played video's on this thing yet
[05:09] <blak1> Pelo: it didnt change anything? isnt there an easier way?
[05:09] <Pelo> helplol,  it will display the file that give you the menu when you boot your computer,  we want to see if windows is an option for your to shose from
[05:09] <gradin> i checked the resolve.conf and its getting the correct dns ip addresses
[05:09] <WaxyFresh> helplol: then cut/paste what pelo said in there
[05:09] <silversky9> first... i go into gparted...and all the partitions are locked...
[05:09] <gradin> so i'm a bit lost on why i'm unable to access the internets
[05:09] <silversky9> so, i unmount the primary one
[05:09] <Pelo> blak1, it's not a question of easier it's a question of finding what the problem is
[05:09] <silversky9> and i try to resize it to half....but, it brings up an error that it can't
[05:10] <allianne> gradin: r u able to access computers in the intranet?

[05:10] <gradin> which is why i'm stumped
[05:10] <WaxyFresh> helplol: do you use aim?
[05:10] <gradin> all i'm getting is hostname not found
[05:10] <Pelo> helplol,  ok lets see if your freind left windows installed on your computer,   type alt+f2  and type sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst     look at the last few lines of the files see if windows in mentionned ,  don'T edit it or save it
[05:10] <lethu> Bradf0rd, that means that if you set a brightness level in Totem for example it won't apply this setting until you disable compositing in xorg
[05:11] <helplol> no i could not figure out how t o use aim i tried once waxy frehs
[05:11] <blak1> Pelo: this is a fresh install i have installed ubuntu about 6 months ago and gave up trying to get the resolution to work on a different pc. so im trying again still cant get any option but 800x600?

[05:14] <lethu> Bradf0rd, I almost want to lick my fonts now : p
[05:15] <Pelo> blak1,  diid you install the ati drivers ?
[05:15] <crdlb> Pelo: he can't

[05:15] <asherZ> WaxyFresh: ah thanks
[05:15] <cbs> is KDE better than Gnome in the sense that KDE possibly has more configuration settings/options?
[05:15] <silversky9> i'm happy with ubuntu....but, i want to use Adobe Audition to edit music.
[05:15] <crdlb> blak1: what driver are you using?
[05:15] <eetfunk> hi all, i just moved my hard drive to a new machine and ubuntu doesn't see the network adapter anymore.  Is there a way to auto-detect/rescan the network adapters?  I only have bash installed (no X server)
[05:15] <gradin> allianne: new issue, rebooted after upgrading and setting interface to static ip
[05:15] <Pelo> crdlb,  would he be ok with feisty ?
[05:16] <blak1> Pelo: no i didnt install drivers but the card is listed when i put that command in
[05:16] <crdlb> probably, but he should be fine with dapper too
[05:16] <cbs> <3
[05:16] <Pelo> blak1,   crdlb  will try and help you get the correct driver  follow his instructiions
[05:16] <levmatta> it should work, I really cannot help anymore without the error message. One quick note: it is EXTREMELLY recomended that you install windows BEFORE installing linux
[05:16] <crdlb> blak1: pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[05:16] <brentc4m> cbs, KDE definitely has more configuration options
[05:16] <Bradf0rd> lethu, yeah, I think I did something wrong, either that or I'm so used to it in OS X that I don't notice, did you copy paste everything into terminal?
[05:17] <asherZ> brentc4m: what is faster?
[05:17] <Bradf0rd> lethu, when you opened that file was there anything else in it? Or was it new/empty?
[05:17] <cbs> brentc4m: can I install KDE while in gnome and switch between them?
[05:17] <xjkx> how do you use lazarus on ubuntu? i installed "tct" and i got a lazarus binary, but when i run:"Can't open" wtf :o
[05:17] <xjkx> I think its not lazarus-pascal
[05:17] <brentc4m> asherZ, not a clue, I use gnome/openbox
[05:17] <levmatta> because you will have to remake your MBR so that you can boot to linux, after installing Windows
[05:17] <xjkx> in man lazarus "lazarus - create structure from unstructured data"
[05:17] <brentc4m> cbs, yeah, to switch between them you logout, choose the KDE session, and login
[05:17] <levmatta> that is not a simple task
[05:17] <blak1> crdlb:Permission denied ?
[05:17] <Wiseguy> hey guys, can anyone help me get a samba share working in ubuntu?
[05:17] <xjkx> lazarus tries to revive things that have died and gone into the binary spirit world... deleted files, data in memory, swap, etc
[05:18] <asherZ> brentc4m: oh ok :) never used openbox.. i use gnome also w/ beryl
[05:18] <xjkx> wtf, what about the pascal lazarus !
[05:18] <cbs> ah, so it updates GRUB autom?
[05:18] <tin_nqn> hello people. Does exist or somebody know how to create a multiboot DVD with ubuntu + kubuntu + xubuntu ?
[05:18] <silversky9> okay
[05:18] <silversky9> thanks a lot
[05:18] <blak1> crdlb: do i have to put sudo first?
[05:18] <crdlb> blak1: run: gedit /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[05:18] <crdlb> that will open the file
[05:18] <crdlb> then:

[05:27] <Pelo> BillTheFish,  my advice stands,  might be the mouse itself
[05:27] <BillTheFish> i'll check it
[05:28] <crdlb> blak1: everything looks ok on that end, pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf now

[05:39] <swooney> i did a bunch of searching but can't find anything similar, has anyone experienced anything similar?

[05:40] <xSUSHix> arch01 does it happen after the computer is idle for some time?
[05:40] <blak1> crdlb: holy crap ok i got it post it again?
[05:40] <variant> swooney: meh.. could be one of a number of things. suspend support is still not 100% (thanks to poor acpi implementations on some motherboards
[05:41] <eelee> hi
[05:41] <crdlb> blak1: post what again?
[05:41] <arch01> xsushi-->no after installing the ububtu and after upgrading the nvidia drivrs then after the restart all i can c is a black screen
[05:41] <swooney> variant: okay, any ideas on how to log back in though? i can deal with suspending until it actually works, as long as i can log back in to do it
[05:42] <jscinoz> Has anyone here successfully installed Trevino's kernel (suspend2 + other patches) on feisty?
[05:42] <xSUSHix> arch01 sorry at first you said 'fading black' so i assumed it was the screensaver

[05:44] <cjae> if I upgrade deluge with torrents loaded will they be lost or just in theory not be lost
[05:44] <crdlb> blak1: run in a terminal: gtf 1024 768 75
[05:44] <crdlb> where 75 is the refresh rate you want
[05:45] <crdlb> the paste the output of that into the monitor section of your xorg.conf
[05:45] <blak1> crdlb: ok now what?
[05:45] <cjae> if I upgrade deluge with torrents loaded will they be lost or just in theory not be lost
[05:46] <mike71b> Is 256Meg too little ram for virtualbox? Edgy and feisty have given me no problems themselves with this little.
[05:47] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: if .config/deluge (in your home folder) does not get removed the torrents will still be there.
[05:47] <xSUSHix> mike71b depends on what os ur running in virtualbox
[05:47] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: make a backup of .config/deluge
[05:47] <arch01> xsushi--> xsushi-->i did actually, i tried the update with the automatix drivers...it did not work, then i uninstalled them reconfigured the xorg.conf file...then installed with the envy drivers ..still the same black screen problem after restart...stranglely all i did to revert back was change "nvidia" to "nv" in the Section "Device". But i want to use the desktop effects, no matter what i use it does not upgrade properl
[05:47] <arch01> y
[05:47] <xSUSHix> mike71b oh ur running feisty in virtualbox? 256 should be ok
[05:47] <crdlb> blak1: you have to open your xorg.conf with gksu so that you can edit it
[05:47] <xSUSHix> mike71b make sure u got plenty swap space
[05:47] <mike71b> I created a new vitrual machine for XP, I don't have xp installed yet.

[05:51] <Yggdrasil> im installing audaacious now
[05:51] <crabgrass> brentc4m: a steam patch about two months ago completely killed it
[05:51] <crdlb> blak1: replace it with this one: http://pastebin.ca/raw/480184
[05:51] <crdlb> I made the changes for you
[05:51] <brentc4m> crabgrass, how do you figure? i was playing cs: source just a few hours ago
[05:51] <crabgrass> brentc4m: HOW?
[05:51] <brentc4m> crabgrass, and I could never get it running on cedega, always crashed a few minutes into the game
[05:51] <crabgrass> brentc4m: hmm.
[05:52] <Eythan> I can get help here, right?
[05:52] <brentc4m> crabgrass, I really didn't do anything special, I'm using the .deb from winehq, installed the tahoma font, and that was it basically
[05:52] <FakeOutdoorsman> Eythan: yes.  just ask.
[05:52] <brentc4m> crabgrass, you are using an nvidia card right?
[05:52] <crabgrass> brentc4m: 7900gtx, yes.
[05:52] <mike71b> You do start the windows type virtual machine through virtual box before installing windows correct? I have the install CD. Or am I supposed to take an image of a current XP installations partition and use that? I'm new to this . Thanks

[05:54] <Alejo> hola a todos
[05:54] <Alejo> alguien me puede ayudar a configurar el GRUB ?
[05:54] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman, OK I was wondering if the upgrade is necessary cause I was here earlier and someone told me to upgrade to version .5 that was not in the ubuntu repositories cause it has problems. Problem is when I close deluge it maxes out cpu usage under python. I was told to upgrade python to 2.5 but it was this already so then I was told to upgrade deluge to .5x but I checked that and it is that version already but was from the ubu
[05:54] <brentc4m> crabgrass, well, translating dx9 shaders to opengl is pretty new. I definitely wouldn't guarantee that cedega will work better for you, like I said, wine works better for me
[05:54] <cjae> ntu repository. I was to install http://download.deluge-torrent.org/ubuntu/feisty/ instead but I believe I did this before I did a fresh install of xubuntu 7.04 and this .deb was worst than what is installed now, if it is the same it wouldn't even cache the torrents on closing the app
[05:54] <mike71b> Where did everyone go that said yes to virtualbox running on 256meg?
[05:54] <fsckit> mike71b, correct. and virtualbox is an awesome vm. good speed on my machine
[05:55] <brentc4m> crabgrass, you might want to do a little searching around for a certain .deb before putting up cash for it *wink*
[05:55] <crabgrass> brentc4m: hehe
[05:55] <FakeOutdoorsman> !spanish

[05:55] <crabgrass> brentc4m: did you use a .deb or compile from source?
[05:56] <brentc4m> brentc4m, wine or cedega?
[05:56] <brentc4m> er
[05:56] <Yggdrasil> whats the cmd to find out what process is using a drive ? losf ?
[05:56] <brentc4m> crabgrass
[05:56] <brentc4m> lol
[05:56] <crabgrass> brentc4m: heh, i hate it when i do that
[05:56] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: so you already tried the latest deb file from the deluge web site?
[05:56] <crabgrass> brentc4m: wine
[05:56] <mike71b> Frustrated, maybe i am doing something wrong? followed wizard, rebooted, try to launch xp virtual machine just created but it stays at zero percent status and ctl alt back won't restart the machine ...
[05:56] <brentc4m> crabgrass, I used the .deb from winehq
[05:56] <cjae> I think so this was a few days ago
[05:56] <grimb_> where is thr place in ubuntu that we need to input the codecs that we download from mplayer andto they be see from the rest of the othr players?
[05:57] <crabgrass> brentc4m: alright, i'm gonna try reinstalling this.
[05:57] <crabgrass> brentc4m: finally beat hl2 on hard without dieing once, so i can live if i break it.
[05:57] <xSUSHix> mike71b tried qemu or vmware server ?
[05:57] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman, I have not tried it in this fresh install of feisty though cause of the torrent dling thing
[05:57] <brentc4m> crabgrass, you might also want to enable glsl, might work better for you with the 7900gtx
[05:58] <crabgrass> brentc4m: eh? how's that done?
[05:58] <brentc4m> grimb_, you'd be better off installing the w32codecs package from mediabuntu
[05:58] <crabgrass> brentc4m: also, what is it?
[05:58] <mike71b> I haven't, does it sound like I am doing this correctly, since windows is not installed currently?
[05:58] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: make a backup of .config/deluge and then uninstall the old deluge if you have it, then try the newest deluge from http://deluge-torrent.com.
[05:59] <truesnake> is crimsun in the room?
[05:59] <grimb_> brentc4m i don`t like nathing to addd here sources :X
[05:59] <grimb_> but ok thanks i will try it :)
[05:59] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman: what I am trying to say is the one I have installed better than the one on the website
[05:59] <mike71b> Or is my problem that an image file of an install is needed also? Could you clear up that part?
[05:59] <Eythan> When I boot from the disc I downloaded, why am I not being presented with what every guide I've read says I will be?
[05:59] <brentc4m> crabgrass, it enables the new shader code I'm pretty sure, and done with a registry setting
[05:59] <brentc4m> crabgrass, http://appdb.winehq.org/commentview.php?iAppId=871&iVersionId=3731&iThreadId=17811
[05:59] <brentc4m> grimb_, then put them in /usr/lib/win32/
[06:00] <crabgrass> brentc4m: interesting, haven't seen this one yet
[06:00] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: i'm not sure if it is any better.
[06:00] <[Neurotic] > I just wanted to pop in and say thanks for helping me out guys, I've successfully installed ubuntu on my m200 tablet PC :D
[06:00] <truesnake> crimsun:  i've been having some audio problems, and i spoke with you yesterday, and am still having the same no sound type problem.  could you by chance help me?
[06:00] <fsckit> mike71b, configure vb, put the xp cd in, should be all. maybe the default config may be fine too
[06:00] <brent_> hello
[06:00] <Rodls> Neruotic: Didyou use the Live CD?
[06:00] <grimb_> brentc4m thanks :)
[06:00] <crimsun> truesnake: in a conf ATM; please be patient.
[06:01] <brent_> does anyone know how to install vim with syntax highlight without installing vim-gnome (i don't want to install X along with it)
[06:01] <truesnake> my bad
[06:01] <mike71b> So it sounds like I am going about it propperly to work then ?
[06:01] <[Neurotic] > Rodls: no, I had to do a PXE install.. as there is no internal DVD drive, and no boot from USB, which ended up being headless, so I had to do a install of ubuntu-desktop
[06:01] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman, thanks anyway
[06:01] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: if you feel like being adventurous then try rtorrent: http://kmandla.wordpress.com/2007/05/02/howto-use-rtorrent-like-a-pro/
[06:01] <[Neurotic] > took me a while to work out
[06:01] <brentc4m> crabgrass, did you still get slowdowns running with dx70? I've literally turned off/down everything I can and I still get slowdowns on a 6800 128mb
[06:01] <fsckit> mike71b, did you configure the vm to have enough virtual ram and disk space?
[06:01] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: you won't get any python probs with that
[06:02] <mike71b>  192 mb ram and 4 gig starting file size
[06:02] <Rodls> Neurotic:  Cool! Ive been messing with this Wubi windows installer to no avail
[06:02] <crabgrass> brentc4m: yeah, but only when it was doing the buffer redrawing effects in the intro and the end
[06:02] <Yggdrasil> lsof: WARNING: can't stat() smbfs file system /media/storeage
[06:02] <Yggdrasil>       Output information may be incomplete.
[06:02] <brentc4m> brent_, you can get syntax highlighting with the 'vim' package
[06:02] <Yggdrasil> odd
[06:02] <brent_> brentc4m: for some reason when I type :syn on it doesn't do anything
[06:02] <fsckit> mike71b, should be fine but if you only have 256mb total, that leaves little for kubuntu. that's pushing it
[06:02] <[Neurotic] > PXE was a bit of a pain as it had to download Ubuntu all over again, but it worked
[06:02] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman, does it support dht? and multiple torrents and such like ktorrent, gtorrent, azureus ???
[06:03] <brent_> brentc4m: all I need is C syntax highlighting
[06:03] <zerokill88> how could i launch a program in a window that i can minimize and resize?keeping the program inside the window?
[06:03] <Eythan> How long does it normally take between when the ubuntu start-up screen (which looks like the XP boot screen) finishes and the actual "desktop" loads up? I've tried booting from the CD twice, and as soon as it's gone through the ubuntu boot screen thing, my monitor goes black like it's turned off. I've waited twenty minutes with no change. Is this normal?
[06:03] <Yggdrasil> bah screw it im gonna reboot
[06:03] <FunnyLookinHat> brent_, Anjuta is a nice GUI for programming syntax
[06:03] <mike71b> I have 256 total, I thought it was more since I haven't been running anything but linux since W98
[06:03] <brentc4m> brent_, are you sure you have vim, and not just vim-tiny?
[06:03] <brent_> FunnyLookinHat: thanks but I need something that is X-less
[06:03] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: let me check
[06:03] <crabgrass> Eythan: no, that's not normal. try redownloading and reburning the cd
[06:03] <crdlb> zerokill88: like a nested X server?
[06:03] <FunnyLookinHat> brent_, emacs ?
[06:03] <Rodls> Ethyan: It should only take a minute or so at the most
[06:03] <fsckit> mike71b, i have 1 gig and vb is about as reactive as a real XP install
[06:03] <brent_> i did sudo apt-get install vim, so I'd assume it's not vim-tiny
[06:04] <brent_> lol @ emacs XD
[06:04] <brent_> no
[06:04] <Eythan> crabgrass I did the option about checking the CD for errors, it said it was fine
[06:04] <brentc4m> brent_, well i've got 'syntax on' in my .vimrc and it works for me
[06:04] <martman> i installed kubuntu-desktop, restarted and now all text is rectangles
[06:04] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: it does not support DHT yet, but it think i can handle multiple torrents
[06:04] <brent_> dammit, i guess i'll try the .vimrc then, but :syn on should work too
[06:04] <martman> no words
[06:04] <mike71b> That's nice to know, I am debating b/t spending for new mb/proc/ram/vid or just go with intel based macbook
[06:04] <zerokill88> crdlb um not sure.im using blender and it doesnt give me a option to minimize it ,so i want to use it in a window.i know i can alt-f9 but i want to change through windows quickly
[06:05] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: "it" can handle....
[06:05] <crabgrass> Eythan: what kind of motherboard do you have?
[06:05] <zerokill88> crdlb cant i run a command in terminal that will do that?
[06:05] <crabgrass> Eythan: better yet, try booting from the cd in text-mode
[06:05] <brentc4m> crabgrass, well at least I know it's my card now. looking forward to ann 8800gts :)
[06:05] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman: does this message turn color when I add the ":" or just when I "FakeOutdoorsman,"
[06:05] <Eythan> crabgrass Is that the other option that's on the website?
[06:05] <mike71b> Any other ideas why the desktop becomes unresponsive and progress of the virtual machine launching stays at zero percent ?
[06:05] <crabgrass> brentc4m: go for the gtx, it's only a little bit more and it's worth it
[06:05] <crdlb> zerokill88: just run it on its own workspace
[06:05] <brent_> brentc4m: ok this is weird, it does parens matching but doesn't highlight anything else
[06:06] <crabgrass> Eythan: no, it's an option that comes up when you first put the cd in and boot from it. you know, where the countdown is?
[06:06] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: for me it changes color when you start the message with my name.  just type the beginning of my name and hit tab and it should autocomplete just like in a terminal
[06:06] <brentc4m> brent_, parens matching is done by set showmatch i think
[06:06] <Eythan> crabgrass: Yeah, seen that screen a few times :P
[06:06] <fsckit> mike71b, your choice. i personally don't like apple's business practices, as MS, so linux for me
[06:06] <zerokill88> crdlb true..but when i animate something,it opens it up in a new smaller window.wich then on the other window i have to start the animation then that it covers up the smaller window and then i cant see it
[06:07] <brentc4m> crabgrass, dude, isn't it like $500 vs $300? lol
[06:07] <brent_> feh.  I guess I'll do without syn highlighting!  I'm thinking that maybe X actually is required for that
[06:07] <crabgrass> Eythan: try going into the non-gui boot, it think it's called recovery mode or something
[06:07] <brentc4m> crabgrass, poor college kid here D:
[06:07] <crabgrass> brentc4m: checked newegg?
[06:07] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: you might find this interesting on your quest for a DHT compatible torrent client: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_BitTorrent_software
[06:07] <Eythan> crabgrass: Okay, will do, thanks
[06:07] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman, I have been looking for a replacement for mutorrent under win I was booting back just for that
[06:07] <Eythan> quit
[06:08] <Eythan> say Woops, been awhile since I used IRC
[06:08] <godlygeek> Hey, can anyone give me a hint as to how the gnome dock applets get launched?
[06:08] <crabgrass> brentc4m: oh god, it's way more expensive than i thought
[06:08] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman, I know it runs under wine too but whats the sense in that, right?
[06:08] <brentc4m> brent_, it's definitely not,  just logged into a tty and it works there too
[06:08] <FakeOutdoorsman> cjae: i used it like that for awhile, but it was annoying ans somewhat buggy.
[06:08] <crabgrass> brentc4m: im working at a compusa thats closing, so i got used to 60% off everything
[06:08] <Thatguy> I have got a problem with video playback in 7.04. I have all of the codecs installed as well as ffmpeg. but when I try to playback a .avi video there is no output unless I rapidly adjust the window size. This same problem is in "Movie Player" and in VLC media player. Whats wrong?
[06:09] <FakeOutdoorsman> Thatguy: are you using beryl?  VLC has trouble under beryl and will often just show a black screen.
[06:09] <crabgrass> Thatguy: have you installed display drivers?
[06:09] <godlygeek> After a gdm login, gnome is up and running for nearly a minute before gnome-power-manager and the network tool start... can anyone suggest what it might be doing in the mean time?  a script that's blocking or something?
[06:09] <crdlb> Thatguy: using desktop effects?
[06:09] <brentc4m> crabgrass, niiice, i'd kill for that. my decision is between the 8800gts 320 vs 640, only $50 more so i think i'm gonna go for it
[06:09] <Thatguy> Yes I'm using compiz that was preinstalled
[06:09] <cjae> I was using ktorrent under xubuntu (present distro) but I am using xfce which uses gtk and ktorrent would always crash after so long
[06:09] <crdlb> Thatguy: that's your problem
[06:10] <crabgrass> brentc4m: yeah, always go for more ram
[06:10] <crdlb> Thatguy: either turn it off or use mplayer
[06:10] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman, but it was so fast
[06:10] <Thatguy> really? thats stupid
[06:10] <Thatguy> mplayer you say?
[06:10] <crdlb> Thatguy: it's a bug in the free ati/intel video dirvers
[06:10] <crdlb> drivers*
[06:10] <Thatguy> oh cool so I can just use mplayer?
[06:10] <crdlb> Thatguy: yes mplayer will work fine for some reason
[06:10] <cjae> FakeOutdoorsman, opps forgot user name there
[06:10] <FakeOutdoorsman> Thatguy: solution http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=314813
[06:11] <crdlb> FakeOutdoorsman: that's no solution
[06:11] <crdlb> X11 output looks terrible
[06:11] <Jas1> are there any apps similar to itunes?
[06:11] <FakeOutdoorsman> crdlb: i guess i should say "workaround" then
[06:11] <crdlb> Jas1: amarok, rhythmbox, banshee, exaile
[06:11] <jacquesmerde> anyone here been successful on installing moodriver on ubuntu? i'm having major trouble
[06:11] <cjae> ok new question does anyone else have problems with ktorrent in a gtk environment???
[06:11] <Jas1> crdlb, thanks
[06:11] <crdlb> FakeOutdoorsman: using mplayer is a much better one
[06:12] <crdlb> since you still get to use Xv
[06:12] <FunnyLookinHat> cjae, you shouldn't...  Ubuntu automatically will install the QT libraries and run the program correctly.
[06:12] <crdlb> Thatguy: make sure you have mplayer set to use the Xv video output
[06:13] <Thatguy> K got it thanks
[06:13] <cjae> FunnyLookinHat, I know it shouldn't but it does especially with any power saving, screen saver stuff enabled
[06:13] <darwin> How do I install plugins for Azureus?
[06:14] <FunnyLookinHat> cjae, that's strange...   I guess you should just try a different torrent client  : (
[06:14] <fsckit> anyone know why i can't display the spanish n in ubuntu?
[06:15] <cjae> can I transfer torrents from gtorrent to ktorrent
[06:15] <darwin> ??
[06:16] <FunnyLookinHat> cjae, When you open the torrent, just select the same save location and it should automatically hash what you have already downloaded  (at least, that's how azurues works)
[06:16] <jacquesmerde> ./configure complains about missing glib-2.0, gobject-2.0, gthread-2.0, sigc++2.0. what packages do i need? i already have libglib2.0-0...
[06:16] <cafuego> jacquesmerde: the -dev packages
[06:16] <cjae> FunnyLookinHat, cool will try
[06:17] <jacquesmerde> cafuego: which ones?
[06:17] <jacquesmerde> cafuego: just libglib2.0-dev?

[06:18] <mobutu> when i 'switch users' in gnome, my mouse stops working.  why is that?
[06:18] <tidrion_> any ideas why I can't get a dvd to to play on feisty when I could on dapper
[06:18] <tidrion_> am I just missing something?
[06:19] <cables> Has anybody noticed any weirdness with Planet Penguin Racer where finish lines show up anywhere?
[06:19] <cjae> how do I debug or create bug reports and what is the difference??
[06:19] <cables> mobutu, I have issues with that also... also, Beryl breaks it for me.
[06:19] <danlock2> from the terminal is there any way to set a default directory for a group
[06:20] <danlock2> from the terminal is there any way to set a default directory for a group?
[06:20] <variant> cjae: debuging is where you try to fix a bug your self by working out what went wrong where, creating a bug report is just where you find a bug but don't know what causes it and you submit it as a report
[06:20] <disinterested> cables have u tried xmoto? im addicted to that game
[06:20] <cables> disinterested, no... what is it?
[06:21] <Yggdrasil> hello, any way to do a hard drive ubuntu installation ?
[06:21] <disinterested> its a motorcycle trials riding type game
[06:21] <cables> Yggdrasil, what do you mean by that?
[06:21] <strabes> xmoto is AMAZING
[06:21] <cables> I'll remember that :)
[06:21] <variant> Yggdrasil: boot the cd, install.
[06:21] <Yggdrasil> cables, i dont have a cd rom
[06:21] <variant> !install | Yggdrasil
[06:21] <ubotu> Yggdrasil: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[06:22] <disinterested> theres levels in the add and remove synaptic that drive me crazy
[06:22] <Yggdrasil> thanks
[06:22] <cables> Planet Penguin Racer's music is somehow very depressing... I don't know why.
[06:22] <danlock2> from the terminal is there any way to set a default directory for a group?
[06:22] <cables> !repeat | danlock2
[06:22] <ubotu> danlock2: 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
[06:22] <Eythan> Who was I talking to earlier?
[06:22] <fsckit> i got a song with the word pinata in it and it won't copy to ubuntu because of the spanish n? nobody had this prob?
[06:23] <disinterested> i tried penquin racer for about 20 mins and removed it
[06:23] <jacquesmerde> once i've download a packages source, and edit package/debian/rules, how do i install it?
[06:23] <cables> fsckit, that's impossible
[06:23] <danlock2> lol, cables, i've asked questions here before
[06:23] <danlock2> :-P
[06:23] <cables> danlock2, yeah, you just asked the same question twice in like 2 minutes... give it some time!
[06:23] <Eythan> crabgrass There is no text boot option, at least not on my cd
[06:23] <Zoffix> Hi, I've just installed Fiesty and now I have a dual-boot XP and Ubuntu. I have a problem, I access Internet via a wireless card, however I need to install ndiswrapper in order to use it. When I try to compile it it gives me errors that it cannot find some header files. IIRC you need to install some package in order to be able to compile. BUT I can't access Internet from Ubuntu. Is there any way to download the needed package on XP and then install it 
[06:23] <fsckit> cables, well, i'm doing it, or ubuntu is
[06:23] <cables> fsckit, if it's an audio file, Ubuntu doesn't care what language is in it.
[06:24] <disinterested> but the latest xmoto is hard
[06:24] <danlock2> um, okay, so does anyone do much with setting up SSH for remote users to use, like when you make their account add it to group sshusers.  Is ther a way to change the default directory for the group?
[06:24] <crdlb> fsckit: copying from where?
[06:24] <fsckit> cables, the file doesn't display the n, it's two rectangles instead and it was burned in XP
[06:24] <fsckit> crdlb, from CD
[06:24] <Yggdrasil> danlock2 you want everyone to have the same home dir ?
[06:24] <cables> fsckit, you mean a song title?
[06:24] <fsckit> crdlb, a data mp3 cd
[06:25] <fsckit> cables, yes
[06:25] <crdlb> that's odd but I blame it on windows
[06:25] <danlock2> yggdrasil: i'm not sure, it seemed that when i created a new user it didn't make them a home dir :-(
[06:25] <FakeOutdoorsman> Zoffix: the header files may be available on your install disc.
[06:25] <cables> fsckit, it's probably because of the weird character... It should play just fine, just rename the file if you want.
[06:25] <fsckit> am i missing a language pack or something?
[06:25] <Yggdrasil> danlock2 i think it does it after they log in?
[06:25] <Eythan> Apparently crabgrass isn't there anymore
[06:25] <disinterested> crdlb windows can take the blame theyre popular
[06:25] <cables> fsckit, no, it's just a weird incompatibility thing between the filesystems on the CD and Ubuntu
[06:26] <danlock2> yggdrasil: yeah, i logged into it.
[06:26] <Yggdrasil> hmm
[06:26] <ioerror> How do I set the per process ulimit on file descriptors? /etc/security/limits.conf doesn't work. I can set it higher as root before spawning my programs, I can't however seem to make it stick unless I explicitly call ulimit in each init.d script. That isn't proper and no changes to limits.conf seems to make any difference on dapper. What gives?
[06:26] <fsckit> cables, can't rename it on the cd but it does play. i just want to copy the cd to my media folder
[06:26] <Yggdrasil> when you log in and do ls
[06:26] <Yggdrasil> what does it show ?
[06:26] <Yggdrasil> and where does it show
[06:26] <cables> fsckit, just rename it after you copy it then
[06:26] <Yggdrasil> and ls /home
[06:26] <jacquesmerde> after doing an apt-get source package, and editing package/debian/rules, how do i install it?
[06:26] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman, well, when I was installing Edgy somehow I got it compiled in seconds. For some reason when I insert the CD into CD-ROM I don't get that message "Found some packages on CD, wanna install some?" message as I did on Edgy :/ it's a 700MB ISO, should headers be there? Or even any packages that are not installed by default.
[06:27] <linuxbomb> fsckit, how are you trying to copy it?
[06:27] <fsckit> cables, it won't even let me copy it at all, it gives me the error. for that and 3 other songs with non-english characters
[06:27] <Punkunity> hey is there a torrent chan??
[06:27] <Punkunity> anyone?
[06:27] <cables> fsckit, that's weird... I'm not sure what to tell you.
[06:27] <fsckit> linuxbomb, drag and drop, copy/paste, whatever
[06:27] <cables> Punkunity, #bittorrent
[06:27] <ra21vi> fsckit: i/o problem
[06:27] <Punkunity> ty cables
[06:27] <fsckit> i suppose i could use my windows VM, but i hate to resort to it
[06:28] <dotpavan> anybody got Tomcat 6 working with JDK 1.6?
[06:28] <linuxbomb> fsckit, try using cli
[06:28] <Punkunity> how do i make a different torrent program besides BitTorrent the default downloading program???
[06:28] <Yggdrasil> fsckit what are you trying to do ?
[06:29] <cables> Punkunity, first of all, remove two of your three question marks. Second of all, right click a torrent file, go to properties, and change the Open With option.
[06:29] <fsckit> Yggdrasil, copy an mp3 from cd to my ubuntu hdd but it's got a non-english character
[06:29] <Yggdrasil> mhmm
[06:29] <Punkunity> hmm
[06:29] <kr3ml> hey, I cant play youtube videos... I cant seems to install flash player... I tried to install gnash... nothing seems to work... it even came to the point where it doesnt even show messege that I need a flash plugin when I visit youtube, the player just shows up and nothing happens... I on ubuntu fiesty ...the 64bit verison... someone help pls? :(
[06:29] <FakeOutdoorsman> Zoffix: your cd is probably not in your sources list.  you can add it with this command: "sudo apt-cdrom add" then update the sources list with "sudo apt-get update" (or sudo aptitude update)
[06:29] <Yggdrasil> fsckit cp /mnt/cdrom/song*.mp3 ./ ?
[06:30] <Yggdrasil> oh its a cd ?
[06:30] <Punkunity> and that will change the way it opens in firefox as the default program??
[06:30] <cables> kr3ml, flash doesn't work on 64 bit (or at least it's not easy to get working)
[06:30] <disinterested> kr3ml did u add repositories?
[06:30] <Yggdrasil> oh its an mp3
[06:30] <Yggdrasil> haha
[06:30] <nathan_> Hi all
[06:30] <kr3ml> repositories?
[06:30] <Staz_> hey nathan_
[06:30] <godlygeek> how about this: is there any way to get debugging information from gnome as it's starting its startup applications?
[06:30] <cables> Punkunity, you only removed one question mark... you need to ask with ONE question mark per question.
[06:30] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman, ok, thanks. Let me try that.
[06:30] <jscinoz> Hey everyone, I recently attempted to install Trevino's patched kernel (suspend2 and other fixes) but am having some problems, is anyone willing to help me troubleshoot it?
[06:30] <cables> Punkunity, no, you need to change that in Firefox settings
[06:31] <Punkunity> cables why the hell does that really matter, if you dont want to help man its cool
[06:31] <nathan_> Linux just gets better and better.
[06:31] <cables> Punkunity, I just DID help.
[06:31] <Punkunity> geezus H
[06:31] <Toma-> jscinoz: i might try... but 3rd party repos are a no-go for support and bugs
[06:31] <Eythan> Maybe someone else can help me
[06:31] <Luakagon> What is the md5sum of the 7.04 iso of ubuntu for pc?
[06:31] <dotpavan> hi, wondering if anybody got Tomcat 6 working with JDK 1.6?
[06:31] <godlygeek> i'd be thrilled if gnome could just print a timestamp and the script it's exec'ing for each thing it execs...
[06:31] <nathan_> Although I had a couple issues with the Feisty.   It was rather feisty to get working the way I wanted. :P
[06:31] <kr3ml> whats repositories!?
[06:31] <Toma-> Luakagon: alternat, desktop or server?
[06:31] <Punkunity> yeah bro i appreciate the help cables but I think most people cab do away with the attitude
[06:31] <Punkunity> can
[06:31] <cables> !repositories | kr3ml
[06:31] <ubotu> kr3ml: 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
[06:31] <Yggdrasil> whats taters
[06:32] <mike71b> I'm back, I never could get VirtualBox to load the virtual xp it's wizard created... Stayed at zero percent .
[06:32] <Toma-> Luakagon: ftp://ftp.iinet.net.au/pub/ubuntu-releases/7.04/MD5SUMS
[06:32] <nathan_> Anyone know how to mount usr and home on same partition?
[06:32] <cables> Punkunity, you're wasting my bandwidth with your extra question marks. I just helped you, we can end this discussion now.
[06:32] <Luakagon> Toma- desktop
[06:32] <variant> cables: chil man it's only irc
[06:32] <Toma-> Luakagon: check out that link i spammed
[06:32] <fsckit> Yggdrasil, how do i input the spanish n?
[06:32] <jscinoz> alright. basically during the install it gave me "Could not find postinst hook script [update-grub] , subprocess install script returned error exit status 2
[06:32] <Punkunity> extra bandwidth form question marks....hahah yeah i guess if you have dial up...hahahaa
[06:32] <mike71b>  I installed Vmware player, now what do I need to do to install windows onto a partition or virtual machine ?
[06:32] <Yggdrasil> fsckit just use a *
[06:33] <Yggdrasil> instead of it
[06:33] <fsckit> surely i'm just missing a pack or something for me to display foreign characters right, aren't i?
[06:33] <Toma-> jscinoz: are you using edgy?
[06:33] <jscinoz> and the new kernel is unavailable to use, and it tries to fix it everytime i modify something with apt, fails to fix it etc
[06:33] <jscinoz> no fiesty
[06:33] <cjae> variant, that's what I thought. How do I create a bug report of something like the ktorrent crashes I am experiencing?
[06:33] <Toma-> jscinoz: has trevino even made a feisty repo yet?
[06:33] <jscinoz> yes
[06:33] <jscinoz> http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/dists/feisty/index.html
[06:33] <variant> cjae: you need a launchpad account, you can sign up on ubuntu website
[06:33] <Eythan> I'm trying to do a dual-install with ubuntu, and it kind of successfully boots from the disk, to the screen with all the options. I choose the first option, "start or install ubuntu", and it takes me to a boot screen kind of like the XP boot screen. After that's done, my monitor goes black. After twenty minutes of waiting for more to come, I decided it wasn't working right, and tried booting again. The same thing happened. Any ideas?
[06:33] <Yggdrasil> fsckit its something with the um. locale i think
[06:34] <Luakagon> I run vista and I shrunk my partition in hopes that I could install ubuntu too :s
[06:34] <Luakagon> I hate windows
[06:34] <Luakagon> but the boot-from-disk option only had a cli
[06:34] <Yggdrasil> eythan is therea safe mode of some sort in grub
[06:34] <Yggdrasil> recovery mode ?
[06:34] <Toma-> jscinoz: basically, youre going to need to edit the postinst script from within the actual package if you need it.
[06:35] <jscinoz> alright i'll try some things
[06:35] <Yggdrasil> fsckit ?
[06:35] <Eythan> Yggdrasil Nope, no recovery mode, there is a safe graphics mode
[06:35] <Toma-> jscinoz: there are alot of "Use with caution" messages on this page :)
[06:35] <Eythan> Yggdrasil Tried using that, same thing happened
[06:35] <jscinoz> =P
[06:35] <Yggdrasil> your still booting off the cd
[06:35] <rob2000> how come all installs are not in .debs why do we have to extract and compile everything its driving me nuts.
[06:35] <jscinoz> it hasnt broken anything it jsut doesnt install =P
[06:35] <disinterested> mocrosoft= microshaft
[06:36] <disinterested> microsoft
[06:36] <variant> rob2000: huh?
[06:36] <Yggdrasil> eythan do you have dual monitors  or an onboard vid card and a pci or agp vid card
[06:36] <fsckit> Yggdrasil, well, the command line worked, i just gotta rename it. still, for convenience, i'd like to resove it
[06:36] <linuxbomb> rob2000, wtf are you talking about
[06:36] <linuxbomb> gentoo?
[06:36] <variant> rob2000: fredom of choice
[06:36] <rob2000> i cant freaking install akamaru
[06:36] <Eythan> Yggdrasil My monitor is plugged into an AGP video card
[06:36] <cjae> variant, thanks does it explain it on the site or is it fairly self explanatory
[06:36] <rob2000> i've googled installing .tar.gz a hundred times
[06:36] <Yggdrasil> eythan, do you have 2 vid cards ?
[06:36] <jscinoz> alright next question..
[06:36] <rob2000> nothing makes a damn lick of sense.
[06:36] <variant> cjae: it's fairly self explanitory
[06:36] <jscinoz> Graphical GRUB? i've seen it done but have no idea how
[06:37] <Yggdrasil> fsckit, try mg song*.mp3 song.mp3
[06:37] <Yggdrasil> uh mv
[06:37] <Eythan> Yggdrasil Technically, I have three. The integrated graphics chipset my computer came with, my nVidia, and a Radeon plugged into PCI that I'm not using
[06:37] <cjae> variant, thanks
[06:37] <linuxbomb> rob2000, oh yeah are you a programmer?
[06:37] <variant> rob2000: if you actually have use of such a program then compiling some source code should be farily easy
[06:37] <Eythan> Yggdrasil Think I should switch the monitor to the integrated graphics chipset?
[06:37] <Yggdrasil> its worht a try
[06:37] <rob2000> i took an intro VB class but thats it.
[06:37] <Eythan> Yggdrasil I'll try that then
[06:37] <Yggdrasil> it should jsut take a sec? ,
[06:37] <rob2000> a simple website would be great.
[06:38] <rob2000> for newbs
[06:38] <Yggdrasil> let me know hwo it works out
[06:38] <jscinoz> Does anyone know how to edit the hardcoded places menu items?
[06:38] <variant> rob2000: there are a ton, start with google
[06:38] <fsckit> Yggdrasil, no problem renaming it once it's moved. it's a little more hassle with the konsole but works. thanks
[06:38] <rob2000> no wonder ubuntu has trouble grabbing people from windows.
[06:38] <rob2000> i have buddy.
[06:38] <jscinoz> i created a folder in my home dir called "Documents and it has since appeared in places and is not removable through bookmarks, any idea how i can remove it?
[06:38] <disinterested> rob2000: try this http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/
[06:38] <rob2000> awesome potential but lacking here.
[06:38] <brentc4m> rob2000, what packages are you missing?
[06:38] <t3h> has anyone had trouble with a strange problem? ubuntu starts up and the middle "starting" panel comes up... but goes away after a while, and the system runs really slow
[06:38] <variant> rob2000: keep the chat to support issues.. you can talk all you want in #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:39] <t3h> happens randomly on boot
[06:39] <rob2000> i've been there.
[06:39] <rob2000> ok sorry.
[06:39] <Yggdrasil> fsckit, console is the best
[06:39] <Yggdrasil> fsckit, its something with the local.
[06:39] <rob2000> having trouble installing akamaru
[06:39] <Yggdrasil> im not sure wich package controls that,
[06:39] <imc_> morning,I have a fresh feisty install and OOO is borked - Impress can't go into slide show mode. Uninstalling openoffice.org doesn't seem to fix - can anyone offer suggestion of how to remove/reinstall/repair ooo?
[06:39] <rob2000> i followed all the directions there, still cant get it up.
[06:39] <jscinoz> Is Network-manager open for 3rd party plugins to be made?
[06:39] <Yggdrasil> look under the settings menu
[06:39] <rob2000> i'll bounce over there thanks guys.
[06:39] <rob2000> :)
[06:40] <jscinoz> I'm hoping i can figure out how to code a UMTS plugin for network-manager, (similar to GPRS Easy Connect but built into network-manager)
[06:41] <Frogzoo> imc_: it's a bit drastic, but removing .openoffice.org2/ might work
[06:41] <jscinoz> Toma, I fixed the kernel issue
[06:41] <jscinoz> *dances*
[06:42] <[Neurotic] > I used my office windows machine as an http proxy to connect my laptop to.  I use a usb network cable to connect my ubuntu laptop to my work station, and they a 'wired conncetion' notification pops up - but the two machines can't ping each other.  Is USB networking even possible?
[06:43] <Alonea> anyone have any ideas for when your automount thing is messed up?
[06:43] <nathan_>  Is it possible to have /usr and /home mounted on same partition?
[06:43] <Yggdrasil> nathan i think so
[06:43] <[Neurotic] > Or at least is USB networking between a windows and ubuntu system possible?
[06:43] <jscinoz> well time to reboot and see if my shiny new kernel works
[06:44] <Yggdrasil> alonea can u b more specific ?
[06:44] <nathan_> I'd probably just cp the current /usr to /usrnew.  Unmount usr and rename usrname to usr and mount that.
[06:45] <Yggdrasil> nathan, i would jsut copy it over to where it shoudl be under /usr
[06:45] <Yggdrasil> then change fstab ?
[06:45] <Frogzoo> [Neurotic] : I don't think there's a standard for IP over USB, I know linux can do it, not sure about doze
[06:45] <brentc4m> [Neurotic] , you probably have to do manual ip configuration for whatever interface it is
[06:46] <[Neurotic] > I can work out what driver is used on the doze side, without any issues
[06:46] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: nothing will automount anymore. My cdrom would not unmount earlier and I have to stick a pin in the hole to get it to eject the disk. Now my cdrom isn't mounted anymore and wont mount again. There is also now a locked folder called My Book which is referring to my external hdd that is not even hooked up anymore
[06:46] <krbrowning> Can File Roller support 7zip archives?
[06:46] <Yggdrasil> alonea have you tried to reboot ?
[06:46] <Bonkers-> every time I try "modprobe nvidia" I get "FATAL: could not run install command nvidia", if I just insmod the module, it works fine, it seems that the command "/sbin/lrm-video nvidia" is returning non-zero causing modprobe to fail, anyone know how to fix this?
[06:46] <[Neurotic] > Frogzoo, brent, ubuntu is granted a IP address, it shows up when I ifconfig
[06:47] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: yes. its been like this for 2 days, though today was the first time I tried to eject my cd drive. none of my thumb drives will automount anymore
[06:47] <Yggdrasil> alonea, from cmd line type mount
[06:47] <nathan_> Yggdrasil how would I do that?  It's not like I just copy it like from C: to D: the windows way.  :P ..... or can I?
[06:47] <brentc4m> [Neurotic] , do both machines have the same network in their ip?
[06:47] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: ok
[06:47] <Yggdrasil> bonkers- is this a custom made kernel or something ?
[06:48] <Bonkers-> Yggdrasil: nope linux-image-2.6.20-15-386, but I did use m-a build/install nvidia-new
[06:48] <[Neurotic] > brentc4m: both have the same subnet mask, but I'm not familiar with 'network' on windows
[06:48] <oscar> Hello.. Somebody cabn help me?? I have Ubuntu and I upgrade to a new  version and now in the GRUB appear some message telling me "Error 18: the selected cylinder exceed the maximum space available".. something like that.. What can i do?
[06:48] <Bonkers-> Yggdrasil: everything other than modprobe works fine
[06:48] <Yggdrasil> nathan, hmmm
[06:48] <nathan_> Feisty has quite a few nVidia issues it seems.
[06:48] <Yggdrasil> bonkers- how did you install the nvidia driver ?
[06:48] <Yggdrasil> nathan what does your fstab look like right now ?
[06:49] <Bonkers-> Yggdrasil: as I just said, m-a build/install nvidia-new
[06:49] <oscar> Sorry my mistake.. I am back.. Somebody can help me about the GRUB???
[06:49] <brentc4m> [Neurotic] , one should have an ip of a.b.c.d and the other should be a.b.c.e, as in they both have the same first 3 numbers, at least if the netmask is 255.255.255.0
[06:49] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: do you think it might be caused by the iso I mounted yesterday? (though it didn't work like I hoped it would. trying to vmware an os)
[06:49] <Yggdrasil> bonkers- try to just redo that installatin proces ?
[06:49] <nathan_> I can't rememebr how I corrected the resolution, I should have written it down.  but I can tell you manually editing the xorg resolutions in feisty doesn't seem to fix that issue.
[06:49] <[Neurotic] > brentc4m: netmask: 255.255
[06:49] <Yggdrasil> alonea, just wondering whats under your mount
[06:49] <[Neurotic] > brentc4m: netmask: 255.255.0.0*
[06:50] <Bonkers-> Yggdrasil: doesn't seem to help, any idea what lrm-video is though? it doesn't seem to do anything other than fail
[06:50] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: http://www.pastebin.ca/480229
[06:50] <brentc4m> [Neurotic] , well then technically they probably only need to share the first 2 numbers, but make sure they have the same first 3 just to be sure
[06:50] <nathan_> xconfig added the correct resolutions, but again wouldn't show up.
[06:50] <[Neurotic] > brentc4m: they only share the first two numbers
[06:50] <Yggdrasil> bonkers- not lrm-video doesnt ring any bell
[06:51] <oscar> what's meaning this ""Error 18: the selected cylinder exceed the maximum space available""??
[06:51] <brentc4m> [Neurotic] , well try making them share the first 3. make sure you're configuring the right interfaces on both too. beyond that I wouldn't know, I'm only suggesting things for a generic nic to nic connection, never done usb specifically
[06:51] <Yggdrasil> alonea, looks like vmware has got that iso locked perhaps
[06:52] <[Neurotic] > brentc4m: I don't think I have any control over the hardware
[06:52] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: how would I unlock it?
[06:52] <Yggdrasil> lsof | grep /home/alonea/mac
[06:52] <Yggdrasil> i think
[06:52] <[Neurotic] > brentc4m: assuming that the connection actually works... I should be able to ping one another, on their designated IP addresses, shouldn't I?
[06:53] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: well, it appeared to do something
[06:53] <Yggdrasil> alonea, sudo /etc/init.d/vmware stop
[06:53] <Yggdrasil> then umount
[06:53] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: ok, its off noq
[06:53] <Yggdrasil> ah ?
[06:53] <brentc4m> [Neurotic] , as long as you're pinging the correct interface's ip address, yes
[06:53] <Alonea> now I mean
[06:53] <Yggdrasil> it unmounted ?
[06:53] <Yggdrasil> or vmware
[06:54] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: vmware isn't even on at the moment I don't think. and yes it unmounted. vmware isn't even using that iso anymore because it didn't work
[06:54] <brentc4m> [Neurotic] , if when you ping the error is 'no route to host' that's usually a bad sign
[06:54] <Yggdrasil> alonea, well there u go then
[06:54] <[Neurotic] > brentc4m: yup, figured that ;) (thanks for the help btw)
[06:54] <Alonea> Yggdrasil: just checked mount, its not listed anymore. Do I need to restart for everything to be working again?
[06:54] <Yggdrasil> lsof shouldnt have done nothing
[06:54] <Yggdrasil> uhm
[06:55] <Yggdrasil> stick a cd in i guesse
[06:55] <brentc4m> [Neurotic] , no prob
[06:55] <Alonea> ok. stuck one in, nothing happening Yggdrasil lemme restart server. brb
[06:55] <truesnake> hi, does anybody know how to fix the audio on ubuntu fiesty for a toshiba satellite r20??
[06:55] <nathan_> What's everyone's preference here.  VMware or Virtualbox?
[06:55] <Yggdrasil> vmware , i dint know there was anything else
[06:56] <Yggdrasil> virtualbox free ?
[06:56] <strabes> nathan_: i've had better luck with virtual box
[06:56] <strabes> but i've never had a use for either
[06:56] <[Neurotic] > can you run XP on VirtualBox?
[06:56] <nathan_> Virtualbox is open source
[06:56] <Yggdrasil> ahh that sounds nice
[06:56] <Yggdrasil> ok im going to sleep
[06:56] <nathan_> virtualbox runs whatever VMware does, just never tried it yet
[06:56] <Eythan> Yggdrasil Looks like it's working, except my monitor is awful, and it did this thing where it burnt out
[06:56] <Eythan> Yggdrasil I have great timing :P

[07:03] <z3ro_> quick question regarding ubuntu... I seem to be getting messages from gcc like "In function :" (always that character, and not the real function name)
[07:03] <z3ro_> which isn't so helpful...
[07:03] <somar> is it just a sudo aptitude install hellanzb?
[07:03] <FakeOutdoorsman> Zoffix: what error are you getting when you try to access your cd-rom?
[07:04] <nathan_> So yeah, looking to put /usr on same partition as /home
[07:04] <Yggdrasil> nathan_ hahah join #nathan_
[07:04] <somar> nevermind should have checked the forums first!
[07:05] <Yggdrasil> nathan_
[07:05] <somar> I have a quickie though. Anyone know why my mousepad tapping keeps getting enabled every reset? I want to keep it disabled, and being a laptop I reboot it quite often. :(
[07:05] <Yggdrasil> join #nathan_
[07:06] <james_> great i seem to have locked enev root outa the nfs share
[07:06] <cables> somar, how are you enabling it?
[07:06] <Yggdrasil> somar, its under /etc/X11/xorg.conf synaptics
[07:06] <somar> terminal>qsynaptics>check the box and hit apply
[07:06] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman: hey, well, I think it was you who I was talking to about my packages not visible from CD-ROM. When I ran the command you told me it was giving me "E: Could not mount CD-ROM" and it looked like it wasn't even trying. So I right clicked on the CD-ROM icon and changed "Mount Point" to "/mnt". Now when I insert CD-ROM it gives me "Unable to mount the volume "Ubuntu 7.04 i386" mount_point cannot contain the following characters: newline, G_
[07:06] <Yggdrasil> man synaptics
[07:06] <cbs> Need help with Gnome RDP
[07:07] <Zoffix> whops
[07:07] <somar> I had a weird issue with xorg.conf. It wasn't being read, I'll check it when I boot ubuntu
[07:07] <kevin__> hello where is the grub config file located?
[07:08] <cbs> kevin: /boot
[07:08] <Yggdrasil> keving, /boot/grub
[07:08] <kevin__> thanks
[07:08] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman: did you get the full message? Ended with "broke it even more" I managed to `ssh` to my second box and using irssi and I know it likes to cut stuff out. BTW, is it possible to install the packages I need via this SSH connection?
[07:08] <cbs> wow i actually answered a question....partly
[07:08] <Yggdrasil> haha
[07:08] <somar> I have another quick one (maybe): my windows partition is in /media/sda2, how do i get access to read/write?
[07:08] <Yggdrasil> good job dood
[07:08] <cbs> i am now t3h ereet hax0r
[07:08] <Rupert-Giles> fo shoa niggah
[07:08] <cbs> haha
[07:08] <nathan_> somar: ntfs-3g
[07:08] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | somar
[07:08] <ubotu> somar: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[07:08] <nathan_> easiest and safest way
[07:09] <kevin__> which file do i edit?
[07:09] <Yggdrasil> nathan_
[07:09] <Yggdrasil> join #nathan_
[07:09] <somar> Oh... i thought that ability was built in
[07:09] <somar> doh
[07:09] <Yggdrasil> somar no
[07:09] <gonnaeatthat> whats a good way to play wmv files? since i reinstalled i cant find the package
[07:09] <Yggdrasil> read is i think
[07:09] <nathan_> I all ready did... oh nathan with the _ :)
[07:09] <kevin__> Yggdrasil, you know which one  I edit?
[07:09] <Jordan_U> somar, No, but it is really easy to enable
[07:09] <Yggdrasil> you talkint about the menu list ?
[07:09] <kevin__> yes
[07:09] <Zoffix> !wmv > gonnaeatthat
[07:09] <somar> And once I do that, Do I have to do anything with mounting? (not exactly sure what that is)
[07:10] <asc> gonnaeatthat: I always use mplayer
[07:10] <Yggdrasil> /boot/grub/menu.list
[07:10] <Yggdrasil> be carefull!!!
[07:10] <kevin__> cool ok
[07:10] <gonnaeatthat> ok
[07:10] <FakeOutdoorsman> Zoffix: which machine are you ssd into?  obvoiusly not the one w/o any wireless yet, right?
[07:10] <Jordan_U> somar, No, simply go to Applications -> System Tools -> NTFS config
[07:10] <cbs> kev: backup the file in an easy to locate plac eincase yuo have to boot to a prompt
[07:10] <somar> Ok thank you very much all =)
[07:11] <nathan_> once you got ntfs-3g installed do:  gksu ntfs-config
[07:11] <Jordan_U> kevin__, What are you trying to do exactly?
[07:11] <somar> What is gk?
[07:11] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman: I have two boxes, both use wireless to connect to Internet and they are interconnected with wire Ethernet too.
[07:11] <nathan_> gnome/kde
[07:11] <nathan_> at least that's how I think of it
[07:11] <somar> ohh opens graphical program
[07:11] <Jordan_U> somar, Asks for your password with a GUI dialog
[07:11] <somar> gotcha
[07:11] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman: now on my main box I installed Ubuntu Fiesty from scratch and can't get the wireless card working (need to compile ndiswrapper)
[07:11] <nathan_> like sudo for graphical apps
[07:11] <somar> tyty
[07:11] <kevin__> Jordan_U,  change the name of WindowsVista/Longhorn (loader) to just windows vista
[07:12] <FakeOutdoorsman> if you are ssh'ed into the machine that needs the linux-headers you can get the files you need
[07:12] <FakeOutdoorsman> Zoffix: if you are ssh'ed into the machine that needs the linux-headers you can get the files you need
[07:12] <Zoffix> man, this is a design flaw. I can change the mount point for CD-ROM but I cannot revert it back where it was so easily :/
[07:12] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman: no, I ssh'd FROM the machine that needs headers
[07:13] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman: I run irssi via ssh
[07:13] <kevin__> Jordan_U, I will be ok right?
[07:14] <carbine> Could someone here help me out with WPA?
[07:14] <FakeOutdoorsman> Zoffix: oh.  i was confused.  i guess i'm tired and not much help for you.
[07:14] <Jordan_U> kevin__, Yes
[07:14] <kevin__> thanks
[07:14] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman: well, any idea how I can fix the mount point for my CD-ROM that I've just messed up :/
[07:15] <Jordan_U> Zoffix, Did you just change your /etc/fstab ?
[07:16] <Zoffix> Jordan_U: I right-clicked on CD-ROM icon on desktop and there was a property "Mount point:" it was empty and I've put "/mnt/cdrom" in there.
[07:16] <carbine> I have ndiswrapper installed and working, wpa_supplicant installed.. I just can't connect to a WPA network..
[07:16] <james_> WPA is tough to get working
[07:17] <carbine> So I've learned. =P
[07:17] <Jordan_U> Zoffix, The default is /media/cdrom0
[07:17] <carbine> It acts as if it's going to work
[07:17] <Zoffix> Jordan_U: never mind, I fixed it :) went to `computer:///` and cleared my change
[07:17] <carbine> NM detects that it's WPA, allows me to enter a personal WPA key, tries for a bit, then connects to my neighbor's unsecure network
[07:18] <Jordan_U> carbine, What kind of card do you have (chipset) ?
[07:18] <carbine> Sadly, bcm4306
[07:18] <carbine> I have that working using ndiswrapper
[07:19] <Zoffix> Now it leaves me with the second problem. I cannot get any packages from the CD-ROM. When I try `sudo apt-cdrom add` it gives me "E: Could not mount" without even trying. When I go to `computer:///" I see _TWO_ CD-ROM devices, one with the mounted Ubuntu CD and other one just says "CD-ROM 1" when I right-click -> mount on it it shows me "Could not mount" I have only one CD-ROM drive on my box and I think `apt-cdrom` is trying the wrong one.
[07:19] <Zoffix> How should I remove the second CD-ROM?
[07:20] <Zoffix> When I try to mount that weird `CD-ROM 1` it gives me "mount: special device /dev/hdc does not exis"
[07:20] <Jordan_U> carbine, Don't use NDIS wrapper, it's a hack, remove it, un blacklist the bcm43xx module and install the package "bcm43xx-fwcutter" if you are using Feisty
[07:20] <carbine> Alrighty
[07:20] <ra21vi> Zoffix: you can tell apt-cdrom to go for a particular cdrom device using -d
[07:20] <raabman> Does anyone have any expereince getting the generic wireless card in the HP s7700n working?
[07:20] <ra21vi> Zoffix: man apt-cdrom
[07:21] <Petegu1> Is there a way to change the place that my package manager gets it's packages from?
[07:21] <Jordan_U> carbine, all broadcom cards have native drivers, its just the firmware ( the code that runs on the card itself, not on the OS ) that you need
[07:21] <carbine> How do I go about unblacklisting something? =P
[07:21] <ooazzaoo> i need help with a regexp that will print all characters before ":::" in a file.  Can anyone help?
[07:22] <raabman> locate blacklist
[07:22] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: sure
[07:22] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: you mean on a line?
[07:22] <ooazzaoo> yes, on each line
[07:22] <SuperQ> so you have some line like ::: this
[07:22] <FakeOutdoorsman> Petegu1: yes.  you woul dneed to edit your sources.list with the new repository
[07:22] <Zoffix> ra21vi: I did, but how do I figure out what is the mount point for the right drive?
[07:23] <ooazzaoo> more like  someuser:::other stuff
[07:23] <SuperQ> sure
[07:23] <ooazzaoo> i'm trying to strip usernames from a dump
[07:23] <FakeOutdoorsman> Petegu1: make sure you make a backup fof sources.list irst.
[07:23] <SuperQ> sure
[07:23] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: dump of what file format?
[07:23] <Petegu1> it's the /etc/apt/sources.list file right?
[07:23] <ra21vi> Zoffix: what do you mean?
[07:23] <FakeOutdoorsman> Petegu1: yes
[07:23] <Jordan_U> carbine, undo whatever instructions you followed to install NDIS wrapper, you probably added bcm43xx to /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist if so then just remove it
[07:23] <carbine> I take it I delete the entry for bcm43xx in my blacklist file?
[07:24] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: option 1: awk
[07:24] <SuperQ> awk -F ':::' '{print $1}'
[07:24] <Jordan_U> carbine, Yup
[07:24] <ooazzaoo> i see
[07:24] <ooazzaoo> usb went to sleep.. gotta remount ... one second please
[07:24] <Petegu1> Thanks
[07:24] <raabman> Does anyone have any experience getting the rt73 drivers to work?
[07:24] <nol13> is ubuntu the "n00b" distrubution?
[07:24] <Zoffix> ra21vi: well, what do I pass along with -d option? the files from CD-ROM are in /media/Ubuntu 7.04 i386 when I pass that with -d option it gives me E: Unable to stat the mount point /media/Ubuntu 7.04 i386/ - stat (2 No such file or directory)
[07:24] <FakeOutdoorsman> Petegu1: then once you edit sources.list, you need to update it with "sudo aptitude update"
[07:25] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: option 2: sed
[07:25] <ra21vi> Zoffix: ok
[07:25] <SuperQ> sed -e 's/\(.*\):::.*/\1/'
[07:25] <Zoffix> ra21vi: and still, _why_ do I have two CD-ROM drives in `computer:///` when I have only one :/ it's a fresh install.
[07:25] <Jordan_U> nol13, Not the only one, and it is also great for more experienced users, but yes, it is easy to use for those new to Linux
[07:25] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: sed -e 's/^\(.*\):::.*$/\1/'
[07:25] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: that's the one you want for sed
[07:26] <ooazzaoo> is awk better to use in this situation?
[07:26] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: I like the awk solution better, easier to read :)
[07:26] <SuperQ> either one is fine
[07:26] <ooazzaoo> SuperQ, me too
[07:26] <nol13> how do i program C++
[07:26] <nol13> ?
[07:26] <FakeOutdoorsman> Zoffix: try /media/cdrom0 with your -d option
[07:26] <SuperQ> nol13: goto school :)
[07:26] <ra21vi> Zoffix: just a min
[07:26] <Petegu1> Thanks again
[07:26] <phy3> nol13, sit down with a book
[07:26] <raabman> nol13: go back in time 15 years and go to school.
[07:27] <SuperQ> haha
[07:27] <ra21vi> Zoffix: are you on Feisty?
[07:27] <Zoffix> FakeOutdoorsman: instantly gives me "E: Failed to mount the cdrom" and I think it is trying the other (broken) one.
[07:27] <Zoffix> ra21vi: yes, I've just installed it
[07:27] <ra21vi> Zoffix: ok do this, cat /etc/mtab
[07:28] <infidel> how bad does mint suck?
[07:28] <ra21vi> Zoffix: there you get the right mounted device
[07:28] <phy3> nol13 --- here is your (and everyone's) first project in C++  ...   http://www.engin.umd.umich.edu/CIS/course.des/cis400/cpp/hworld.html
[07:28] <godlygeek> Does anyone here use an alternate wm to metacity inside gnome?
[07:28] <raabman> Anyone know how to wake up a USB wireless card so I don't have to boot into windows to make it work in Ubuntu?
[07:28] <brentc4m> godlygeek, yes, openbox
[07:28] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: the sed one would help you more with learning regexp :)
[07:28] <FakeOutdoorsman> godlygeek: i also use openbox
[07:28] <[o_0] > llegue
[07:28] <dhtechs> raabman:  ndis wrapper?
[07:28] <infidel> raabman, what?
[07:29] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: I could give you a bit of a verbose explanation of how the sed line works
[07:29] <[o_0] > hola
[07:29] <godlygeek> brentc4m, FakeOutdoorsman : do either of you use feisty?  :)
[07:29] <FakeOutdoorsman> godlygeek: yes
[07:29] <brentc4m> godlygeek, you betcha
[07:29] <[o_0] > see
[07:29] <raabman> I have a hp desktop that, from what I have read, needs to be booted into windows to "wake up" the use wireless card
[07:29] <FakeOutdoorsman> godlygeek: i use openbox with no GDM
[07:29] <godlygeek> brentc4m, FakeOutdoorsman again: how do you do it?  WINDOW_MANAGER in ~/.gnomerc?
[07:30] <ooazzaoo> SuperQ, thanks.. works great
[07:30] <[o_0] > oye ustedes ven lo que escribo?
[07:30] <brentc4m> godlygeek, openbox --replace as a gnome startup item
[07:30] <raabman> use=usb
[07:30] <infidel> raabman, ifconfig eth1 up
[07:30] <dhtechs> raabman:  what chipset is he card
[07:30] <dhtechs> *the card?
[07:30] <brentc4m> godlygeek, there is probably a better way, but this works and i'm lazy
[07:30] <raabman> Gemtek
[07:30] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: :)
[07:30] <dhtechs> Hmmmm
[07:30] <Phi1> hey everybody
[07:30] <raabman> I am having a hard time getting anymore info then that
[07:30] <godlygeek> brentc4m: crap, fluxbox doesn't have a --replace and that's what i really want to work.
[07:31] <nol13> phy3, is there any other ones? i cant goto like umuch.edu, im a buckeye fan/
[07:31] <dhtechs> not supported as far as I know
[07:31] <godlygeek> i'm seeing a ~70 second delay between fluxbox loading and gnome continuing to load the panel apps... *sadness*
[07:31] <federicocamilo> Hello, I remember hearing about a method to install ubuntu onto a computer from within XP. (i think it instaled grub and did something with an image. not sure what tho.) Does anyone know if such a method exists and if so where can i find it?
[07:31] <infidel> raabman, what card do you have?
[07:31] <ooazzaoo> SuperQ, now i've got duplicate usernames (dump binary also exports pass history) appended with username_history_x.  Sed to delete all lines matchin _history?
[07:31] <Phi1> I'm on ubuntu 7.04 on a samsung notebook and have a problem with hibernation (system tries to hibernate, but then immediately comes back up)...
[07:31] <infidel> raabman, iwconfig
[07:31] <Phi1> ...posted the log here: http://www.pmayer.net/public/hibernating
[07:31] <raabman> infidel: It is a generic Gemtek card in a hp s7700n
[07:32] <Phi1> ...I don't really understand the log, so could someone point me into the right direction? What could be the problem?
[07:32] <Zoffix> ra21vi: hm, it's what I've tried "/media/Ubuntu ....." when I pass that to -d option it gives me "Could not mount... : (2 Not a directory)" what is interesting is that after running `sudo apt-cdrom` with that option my Fiesty CD _does_ get UNmounted :/
[07:32] <carbine> Oh my God I love you guys
[07:32] <FakeOutdoorsman> godlygeek: sadness...  try it without gnome or GDM.  so fast.
[07:32] <carbine> Thanks sooo much
[07:32] <infidel> raabman, lspci -v
[07:32] <carbine> All this time and it was that easy.. Lol
[07:32] <Zoffix> ra21vi: oh.. it's actually a DVD with a CD ISO burned onto it. I've just installed from it so I guess it is fine, could that be the problem though?
[07:32] <godlygeek> FakeOutdoorsman: that's what i usually do, but i thought i'd give this whole 'gnome works out of the box' thing a shot.  i call bullsh?t.  :-p
[07:33] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: | grep -v "_history"
[07:34] <FakeOutdoorsman> godlygeek: i wish i could help you more, but i've never tried it like that
[07:34] <raabman> infidel: It is an internal usb wireless care so it doesn't show up on lspci -v.  I can't cut and paste because that computer has no internet connection
[07:34] <federicocamilo> Hello, I don't know if i registered properly. can anyone hear me?
[07:34] <jdraper> no
[07:34] <Jordan_U> federicocamilo, no
[07:34] <ooazzaoo> SuperQ, thanks.. works great
[07:34] <federicocamilo> lol
[07:34] <ooazzaoo> need to read up on regex
[07:35] <godlygeek> FakeOutdoorsman: nah, it's alright... the only reason i really wanted to do it that way was to just have the network manager and power manager 'just work', but instead, i think i'll try to figure out how to make *box load them into the slit.  heh
[07:35] <infidel> raabman, never heard of an internal usb wireless card
[07:35] <federicocamilo> Is there a way to install ubuntu with only an internet connection and an existing installation of XP or 2000?
[07:35] <raabman> Neither had I.
[07:35] <federicocamilo> and no floppy or CD?
[07:35] <raabman> But it shows up on the lsusb
[07:35] <Jordan_U> federicocamilo, Yes
[07:35] <Phi1> hm... anyone into hibernation? :(
[07:36] <godlygeek> raabman: internal cards are usually minipci, not usb...
[07:36] <infidel> raabman, hold on let me check
[07:36] <Supaplex> federicocamilo: yes. http://www.goodbye-windows.com - but I think that's debian.  I know ubuntu has one, but I don't know where.  I maintain that site, and I'm welcome to input to support ubuntu to.
[07:36] <Jordan_U> federicocamilo, But it's not officially supported yet, do you have a usb pen drive?
[07:36] <FakeOutdoorsman> godlygeek: good idea with trying to use networkmanager.  wifi-radar doesn't alwys work on my ancient machine.  good luck putting the load into the *box slit.
[07:36] <SuperQ> ooazzaoo: yes :)
[07:36] <Supaplex> s/think//
[07:36] <federicocamilo> debian is fine. anything debianish with apt-get is good. thanx!
[07:37] <godlygeek> FakeOutdoorsman: it seems it'll be easier than getting gnome to load what i want.  heh... either of them SHOULD work in the slit, in theory, so it's worth a shot.
[07:38] <SpookNElbow> Hi all-y'all!
[07:38] <Peteguy> Hi.  I installed the 'restricted' nvidia driver and now my x-windows won't boot.  Is there a way to uninstall that driver from the terminal?
[07:39] <SpookNElbow> Just got Ubuntu running on my WinXP box last Friday at 0500.
[07:39] <disinterested> ok when i enable gl desktop i have no title bar what am i missing?
[07:39] <Jordan_U> Pete_69, Yes, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh ( choose "nv" for the driver )
[07:39] <mike71b> peteguy sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:39] <SpookNElbow> Yikes!  Populous place -- "1144 people in room".
[07:39] <nol13> Peteguy, is(was) your internet running ok?
[07:40] <Phi1> Is there a FAQ or special help site for hibernation-related problems?
[07:40] <Jordan_U> Pete_69, Sorry, my last comment was for Peteguy
[07:40] <Peteguy> Ok, I'll try that.  It's pretty cool that they have a text-based IRC client.  Thanks, I'll give it a shot
[07:41] <nol13> Phil. hibernation is for bears and astronauts
[07:41] <godlygeek> Phi1: what's the problem?
[07:42] <Phi1> the problem is that it tries to hibernate, but immediately comes back up
[07:42] <SpookNElbow> Jordan_U:  You mean this -- "Yes, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" -- is in ref to a text-only client?
[07:42] <Phi1> the log is here: http://www.pmayer.net/public/hibernating
[07:42] <phy3> !hibernate
[07:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hibernate - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:42] <Jordan_U> SpookNElbow, No, in reference to the question of disabling the nvidia driver
[07:42] <mike71b> I'm creating a virtual XP home machine right now, should I choose format ntfs or fat? Is one faster to use?
[07:43] <Nowak> is there a way to install parted package from edgy on feisty ?
[07:43] <dhaval> hi. can someone tell me when pidgin will get added to the ubuntu repos?
[07:43] <mike71b> gparter
[07:43] <mike71b> gparted
[07:43] <nol13> Novak, is your internet running ok?
[07:43] <jack|ass> arrrrgh.  i can get windows to start to boot, but then it decides it needs to fsck a raid array disk.
[07:43] <FakeOutdoorsman> dhaval: i'm not sure, but you can build it from source. i'm running it.
[07:44] <nol13> mike71b, neither
[07:44] <dhaval> FakeOutdoorsman: that i do not want to do. I won't be able to upgrade using apt then (or will I?)
[07:44] <bimberi> dhaval: when gutsy is released.  Unless a backport is done.
[07:44] <jl> i have a problem with youtube the videos is out of sync with the sound, how can i solve this?
[07:45] <Phi1> ubotu: 0 search results for "hibernate"... damn. ;) thx for the link though
[07:45] <phy3> Is that through MB ?
[07:45] <phy3> oops
[07:45] <jdraper> gutsy what
[07:45] <jdraper> gusty gypsy?
[07:45] <jdraper> gutsy german
[07:45] <brentc4m> so with a release like feisty, are updates only bugfixes/security updates? besides the backports repo

[07:46] <nol13> catch
[07:46] <lasking> guys who know purisa font ?
[07:46] <FakeOutdoorsman> dhaval: apt may want to "upgrade" your custom install by replacing it once it appears in the repository if you use checkinstall and give it the same name as it will appear in the repository...i think.
[07:47] <Peteguy> That command worked great, I'm back with a GUI.  Is there a proper place to grab Nvidia drivers from?
[07:47] <nol13> lasking, pursia is for bears and astronauts
[07:47] <Jordan_U> dhaval, http://gnutopia.net/daniel/pidgin_2.0.0-1.deb ( note, I found this while googling and havn't tried it myself so it may be made by an idiot / kill your cat )
[07:47] <jumbers> What's the name of that program that creates banners using ASCII characters?
[07:47] <Jordan_U> jumbers, banner ?
[07:47] <Crankymonky> Guys, I know this really isn't a ubuntu question, but what font's are considered okay for a paper?
[07:48] <jl> nol13: is this a feisty issue?
[07:48] <Crankymonky> Sans 12?  Arial 12?  Times New Roman 13?
[07:48] <nol13> jumbers, kstars
[07:48] <jumbers> Jordan_U: Uh, it's gigantic
[07:48] <bimberi> hi pschulz01, system -> prefs -> sound, System Beep tab
[07:48] <eternaljoy> can I play quake4-demo on Ubuntu?
[07:48] <Jordan_U> jumbers, That's the point :)
[07:48] <jumbers> Jordan_U: I want to use it for a server banner
[07:48] <lasking> nol13:what mean? can you explain it?
[07:48] <jumbers> Jordan_U: For SSH
[07:49] <Nowak> is there a way to install parted package from edgy on feisty ?
[07:50] <nol13> lasking, no, sorry, im just a jackass
[07:50] <lasking> ...
[07:50] <rgould> what is the command to refresh the groups you belong to without logging out?
[07:50] <nathan_> eternaljoy, you can run anything you want on Ubuntu with a little know how. :)
[07:50] <Eythan> How long does it normally take to resize a partition from the boot CD?
[07:50] <eternaljoy> nathan_: :)
[07:50] <nol13> jl, i dunno, i have a few issues with youtube and flash9 beta on dapper, sometimes it keeps pausing
[07:51] <Zoffix> W00t. I am teh smartest :) I've just copied my ndiswrapper source to the other Ubuntu box (that I could ssh into) and copied it back to this box and ran it :) seems to be working fine, got online ^_^
[07:51] <strabes> Eythan: depends on how big it is and how much data you have on it
[07:51] <Zoffix> Thank you to everybody who was helping ;)
[07:51] <Eythan> *sigh*
[07:51] <Eythan> I've been waiting for ten minutes now and it's still at 0% :P
[07:51] <illriginal> Anyone know how to get a PSP (playstation portable) to be recognized by Ubuntu?
[07:51] <strabes> Eythan: then something is probably wrong. how big is it?
[07:51] <SuperQ> Eythan: it can take a long long time
[07:51] <Eythan> 150gb
[07:51] <FakeOutdoorsman> Zoffix: excellent.
[07:52] <strabes> Eythan: shouldn't be THAT slow
[07:52] <SuperQ> Eythan: where are you watching the %?
[07:52] <phy3> Let us know when it hits 1%
[07:52] <SuperQ> Eythan: sometimes I've seen the text-ui progress bar not work at all
[07:52] <nathan_> illriginal: It should recognize as a Mass storage dive.
[07:52] <SuperQ> Eythan: but if you hit Alt-F3 or Alt-F4 it migh be saying something
[07:52] <illriginal> yeah for some reason it's not :(
[07:52] <Eythan> superQ That might be it then
[07:52] <nol13> lasking, what is the problem with pursia font?
[07:52] <abg> once i've installed japanese in kde, how do i actually get to type with it?
[07:53] <SuperQ> Eythan: you can hit Alt-F1 to return to the main install screen
[07:53] <SuperQ> Eythan: (I assume you're using the alternate or server installer)
[07:53] <strabes> abg: run kcontrol and go to regional & accessibility
[07:53] <nathan_> Have PSP set for USB connection?
[07:53] <Eythan> SuperQ nope, the one from the live gui
[07:53] <pschulz01> bimberi: LEGEND!
[07:53] <SuperQ> Eythan: oh..
[07:53] <strabes> abg: then country/region & language
[07:53] <illriginal> do I have it set for usb connection?
[07:53] <illriginal> hold on, let me check my settings <,<
[07:53] <SuperQ> Eythan: I didn't know the live CD gui did resizes
[07:53] <bimberi> pschulz01: cool :)
[07:53] <strabes> Has anyone had any luck with the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 NX?
[07:54] <Eythan> superq It does with 7.04 I guess
[07:54] <lasking> my pursia font is lost
[07:54] <SuperQ> sweet
[07:54] <illriginal> LOL
[07:54] <pschulz01> do you remember what you helped me with previously?
[07:54] <abg> strabes: i've already done that and installed japanese, but now i don't know how to actually use it
[07:54] <illriginal> It opened Rhythmbox?!?!
[07:54] <nathan_> there you go
[07:54] <illriginal> ha that's funny
[07:54] <illriginal> why does it open rythmbox?
[07:54] <nathan_> You probably have music files on there and opened the default app for them
[07:54] <nol13> lasking, so where you from?
[07:54] <strabes> abg: keyboard layout maybe?
[07:55] <SuperQ> Eythan: if you open a terminal under applications::accesories
[07:55] <nathan_> same reason why I have WinAmp open when I connect my USB drive
[07:55] <abg> strables: alright, thanks. i'll fiddle around with it
[07:55] <lasking> north pole
[07:55] <SuperQ> Eythan: you can run "vmstat 1"
[07:55] <illriginal> bug?
[07:55] <pschulz01> bimbari: do you remember what you helped me with previously?
[07:55] <SuperQ> Eythan: and see if the ---io--- column says bi/bo
[07:55] <nol13> lasking, ssucks, i hear its melting
[07:55] <SuperQ> Eythan: (blocks in, blocks out)
[07:55] <illriginal> It's called, "sony psp player" lol
[07:55] <illriginal> Sony psp music player, sorry
[07:56] <foo> Anyone have a rough idea of how long an e2fsck -fyv may take on an 800GB partition? Hmm.
[07:56] <lasking> yes
[07:56] <nathan_> Hmm, maybe Ubuntu is able to recognize it as a PSP
[07:56] <SuperQ> foo: haha
[07:56] <Eythan> Superq Kay, brb
[07:56] <lasking> so i lost my pursia font where to get it back?
[07:56] <SuperQ> foo: oof
[07:56] <illriginal> nathan I've been lookin around to putting songs/images/videos onto my psp, i have a 512 stick of memory in the psp.
[07:56] <SuperQ> :(
[07:56] <Madpilot> foo, if it's a full 800GB partion, quite a while... go get a coffee or something
[07:57] <foo> Madpilot: eh, I'm not sitting around waiting for it. 5 hours? 10 hours? 25 hours?
[07:57] <illriginal> i don't however have a card reader for my PC....
[07:58] <Madpilot> foo, no idea. My 110GB /home, which has about 80GB of stuff in it, fscks in about 5min or less.
[07:58] <illriginal> woot
[07:58] <illriginal> nevermind, i got it!
[07:58] <pr0nGuy> How do I copy data onto a CD with Grip without finalizing?
[07:58] <daya> how do I allow active ftp for the clinets behind the natted firewall
[07:58] <illriginal> im gonna see if i can play mp3s on it
[07:58] <SuperQ> foo: seriously, depending on how much stuff, and what kind of disk it is (RAID?)
[07:58] <SuperQ> foo: hours
[07:59] <foo> Madpilot: ahh, RAID5 with 3 400GB drives. It's been going for about 6 hours already
[07:59] <SuperQ> foo: what stage is it on?
[07:59] <Defian> sheesh, thats a lot of space.
[07:59] <SuperQ> /dev/mapper/ns-data   900G  595G  306G  67% /data
[07:59] <Defian> Video editing or something?
[07:59] <SuperQ> 5x 300G
[07:59] <Madpilot> foo, nice setup, but I'm glad I don't have to wait for it to fsck
[08:00] <illriginal> WOOOOT Ubuntu is fully compatible with PSP!!!
[08:00] <SuperQ> foo: it's not re-building the RAID5 is it?
[08:00] <foo> SuperQ: Not sure. It's remote
[08:00] <illriginal> I got my mp3 playing on my PSP!
[08:00] <foo> SuperQ: hm, don't think so.
[08:00] <foo> Madpilot: hah
[08:00] <SuperQ> foo: cat /proc/mdstat
[08:00] <SuperQ> foo: oh.. you don't have a console on it?
[08:01] <arch01> hello
[08:01] <skinnypuppy> I'm installing my first XP virtual machine on VMware server, I'm to the Windows network setup portion of the virtual machine. Should I give it an IP on the local sub, or let it do DHCP ?
[08:01] <SuperQ> foo: 6 hours seems a bit long, but ext3 fsck is dependant on how much stuff is on the FS
[08:01] <Eythan> superq so what am I looking for in the bi / bo?
[08:01] <Eythan> superq Everything takes so long on the live gui
[08:01] <SuperQ> Eythan: are the numbers non-zero?
[08:01] <foo> SuperQ: I do, I'd just need to call my buddy
[08:01] <foo> SuperQ: 600GB out of 800GB was used
[08:01] <SuperQ> yea, that's going to take a long ass time
[08:02] <Eythan> superq At the moment yeah, but I cancelled the resize of the partition
[08:02] <Eythan> superq I'll get to that stage again :P
[08:02] <SuperQ> foo: I would verify that it's not trying to fsck and rebuild at the same time
[08:02] <titun> how can i upgrade my libc6 from 2.5 to 2.5-7, i have the .deb
[08:02] <SuperQ> Eythan: oh.. canceling resizes is.. dicey
[08:02] <foo> SuperQ: Hm, before we did that... the RAID array was fine. It's hardware RAID, fwyi
[08:02] <SuperQ> titun: dpkg -i new-libc.deb
[08:02] <foo> fyi*
[08:03] <SuperQ> ok
[08:03] <arch01> does anybody have a black screen problem after installing/enabling the latest nvidia drivers on a 1680x1050 laptop with geforce fx go5700.
[08:03] <SuperQ> foo: this is why I use XFS on big filesystems :)
[08:04] <titun> SuperQ: this gives : libc6 conflicts with tzdata (<< 2007e-2)
[08:04] <ubuntu> algum brasileiro?
[08:04] <SuperQ> titun: ahh
[08:04] <arch01> #nvidia
[08:04] <abg> i've been trying to type in japanese for awhile now - i have the language installed, it's added to my keyboard layouts, and there's a flag icon in my toolbar
[08:04] <abg> but when i switch, i can't get it to type in japanese. the only change is apostrophes then appear as colons
[08:04] <titun> SuperQ: so i need to remove tzdata
[08:04] <SuperQ> titun: why not use apt-get
[08:04] <SuperQ> NO!
[08:04] <arch01> does anybody have a black screen problem after installing/enabling the latest nvidia drivers on a 1680x1050 laptop with geforce fx go5700.
[08:04] <SuperQ> titun: you need to resolve dependancies
[08:04] <lasking> play mp3s on what?
[08:04] <abg> i've been trying to type in japanese for awhile now - i have the language installed, it's added to my keyboard layouts, and there's a flag icon in my toolbar
[08:04] <abg> but when i switch, i can't get it to type in japanese. the only change is apostrophes then appear as colons
[08:04] <titun> SuperQ: humm.....
[08:05] <SuperQ> titun: you should just use apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade
[08:05] <SuperQ> titun: instead of trying to apply single packages by hand
[08:05] <titun> SuperQ: ok... let me do so
[08:05] <thompson> hi there
[08:06] <T0uCH> is there any brands of laptop that were unable tp run ubuntu?
[08:07] <abg> i've been trying to type in japanese for awhile now - i have the language installed, it's added to my keyboard layouts, and there's a flag icon in my toolbar
[08:07] <abg> but when i switch, i can't get it to type in japanese. the only change is apostrophes then appear as colons
[08:07] <abg> does anyone have any suggestions?
[08:08] <phy3> Wakarimasen!
[08:08] <abg> haha, thanks.
[08:09] <liri> where is the file that contains the list of the session startup programs, anyone?
[08:09] <arch01> does anybody have a black screen problem after installing/enabling the latest nvidia drivers on a 1680x1050 laptop with geforce fx go5700.
[08:09] <Jordan_U> T0uCH, ( assuming you meant able not unable ) System 76 sells linux pre-installed with tech support ( real, not outsources script monkeys )
[08:09] <arch01> does anybody have a black screen problem after installing/enabling the latest nvidia drivers on a 1680x1050 laptop with geforce fx go5700.
[08:10] <lasking> i'll get back to mars
[08:11] <titun> apt-get says i have the latest version of libc6, which it shows is 2.5, but i need to install 2.5-7 to solve dependency for pidgin
[08:11] <foo> SuperQ: hmm, interesting, ok
[08:11] <_deselby9_> hi I'm trying to compile mplayer ... but I cant get it to configure with lame support
[08:12] <Flannel> titun: pidgin isn't in the repositories, so that's not unexpected.
[08:12] <titun> Flannel: yes, its not in the repositories
[08:12] <titun> so what to do
[08:12] <SuperQ> foo: yes
[08:12] <Yasuo> moin/hi
[08:12] <SuperQ> titun: oh
[08:13] <Flannel> titun: find a deb that works with feisty, or just use GAIM beta 6
[08:13] <SuperQ> titun: pidgin is probably compiled for a different version of ubuntu
[08:13] <Yasuo> im using ubuntu 6.10 and want to remove totem-mozilla but apt always wants to downgrade it and wont remove it
[08:13] <titun> Flannel: i have the deb for Feisty , but this dependeny on libc6 killing me
[08:14] <Yasuo> its annoying that mp3s aren't being downloaded but played back in mozilla
[08:14] <Flannel> titun: that deb isn't really for feisty.
[08:14] <titun> Flannel: humm...... ok
[08:14] <SuperQ> titun: what is in /etc/lsb-release
[08:14] <Flannel> titun: if it was, it wouldn't depend on that, it'd be for the feisty version of libc6 (2.5-0ubuntuN)
[08:14] <foo> SuperQ: thanks
[08:14] <kevin> hello i cant do apt-key add - ...it just hangs
[08:15] <tael> hola
[08:15] <strabes> Yasuo: cd /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ && sudo rm libtotem* && sudo apt-get install mplayer mozilla-mplayer
[08:15] <SuperQ> foo: ?
[08:15] <kevin> any ideas?
[08:15] <titun> Flannel: right
[08:15] <clever> kevin: its hanging because its waiting for a key to be fed into stdin
[08:15] <Yasuo> hi kevin strabes Yasuo: cd /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/ && sudo rm libtotem* && sudo apt-get install mplayer mozilla-mplayer <<< thank you but aint this a bit rude?
[08:15] <clever> kevin: if you dont pipe one in youll have to type it in yourself
[08:15] <ferronica> can i use Kubuntu in ubuntu???
[08:15] <titun> SuperQ: no /etc/lsb-release here
[08:16] <Flannel> ferronica: Yes.  They'll coexist nicely
[08:16] <kevin> clever can you take a look at a site for me?
[08:16] <foo> SuperQ: for he tip
[08:16] <foo> for the *
[08:16] <SuperQ> :)
[08:16] <clever> kevin: what site?
[08:16] <Yasuo> kevin, first download the pgp-key then add it via  apt-key add /path/fi/file
[08:16] <skinnypuppy> Works great K and Ubuntu, you choose at the login which gui you want
[08:16] <ferronica> Flannel; to install it i have to creat seperate partition for KDE
[08:16] <kevin> http://compiz.org/Ubuntu_Installation_Guide#Configuring_Compiz
[08:17] <kevin> im under fiesty
[08:17] <kevin> clever, http://compiz.org/Ubuntu_Installation_Guide#Configuring_Compiz
[08:17] <Flannel> ferronica: no.  They both (Ubuntu and Kubuntu (desktop flavors)) will exist on the same Ubuntu (linux distro) install.
[08:17] <skinnypuppy> Just install KDE under synaptic, then KDE will be a login option
[08:17] <clever> kevin: cant click the link atm no mouse
[08:17] <Flannel> ferronica: just install the `kubuntu-desktop` package
[08:17] <tael> cinelerra
[08:17] <clever> kevin: and i dont know how to use compiz
[08:18] <ferronica> Flannel: from where CD ( i have downloded one CD too)
[08:18] <kevin> i just have to figure out how to get the apt-key to work
[08:18] <Flannel> ferronica: Do you have the Desktop CD or the alternate CD?
[08:18] <ferronica> Flannel: i think alternate
[08:18] <_deselby9_> I'm on dapper 64 bit (server)
[08:18] <kevin> Yasuo, I downloaded : wget http://ubuntu.moshen.de/2F306651.gpg -O-
[08:19] <Wiseguy> anyone know the ubotu link for setting up beryl with an nvidia car?
[08:19] <Flannel> ferronica: if it's the alternate, then you can add it to your repositories, and install from that.  But really, you'll need to download updates from the internet anyway.  So just ignore the CD and download the packages from the internet
[08:19] <Yasuo> kevin, then apt-key add 2F306651.gpg
[08:19] <ferronica> Flannel: alternate CD wont give me live options
[08:19] <kevin> sweet thanks
[08:19] <skinnypuppy> ferronica if you are currently booted in ubuntu all you need to do is add kde through the synaptic package manager in ubuntu and it will become a login choice
[08:19] <Flannel> ferronica: that's correct
[08:19] <_deselby9_> anyway lame is complied and installed ... libmp2lame.so is in /usr/local/lib
[08:20] <strabes> Yasuo: why is that rude? I was including a replacement for totem....
[08:20] <Flannel> ferronica: in synaptic, click the "kubuntu-desktop" package, and then hit apply
[08:20] <strabes> Yasuo: the mplayer mozilla plugins are far superior to the totem ones
[08:20] <skinnypuppy> What flannel said, I'v done it both ways.
[08:20] <bradf0rdX> Hey, does anyone know why I can only DL one torrent at a time w/ bittorrent?
[08:21] <mattstang> so I have an odd situation... just wondered if anyone has heard of anyone experiencing the same thing
[08:21] <_deselby9_> when I configure mplayer it doesnt find lame
[08:21] <Yasuo> strabes, yes o <3 mplayer but if i click mp3 i jsut want to download it XD
[08:21] <strabes> _deselby9_: have liblame installed
[08:21] <tael> how to cinelerra in spanish????
[08:22] <mattstang> widescreen... 1440x900.... but part of my desktop is out of the viewing area
[08:22] <_deselby9_> strabes ... I compiled lame
[08:22] <Flannel> !es | tael
[08:22] <ubotu> tael: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[08:22] <strabes> Yasuo: then delete the part about installing mplayer from the command i sent you
[08:22] <gb__> hi guys
[08:22] <kevin> Yasuo, it says no such file or directory
[08:22] <gb__> i need some info on phpbb
[08:22] <gb__> anyone set it up on ubuntu
[08:22] <Yasuo> kevin, well did youi download the pgp-file successfully?
[08:22] <bradf0rdX>  Hey, does anyone know why I can only DL one torrent at a time w/ bittorrent?
[08:22] <kevin> Yasuo,
[08:22] <kevin> Yasuo, yes
[08:23] <skinnypuppy> Anyone think a suse 8.2 pro retail with admin book and user book is worth putting on ebay or feed it to the trash? Any packages from there that would be worth saving?
[08:23] <ferronica> Flannel: there is no use of  alternate CD
[08:23] <Yasuo> kevin, then you may pecify the wrong filename/path
[08:23] <gb__> skinnypuppy,  nope
[08:23] <skinnypuppy>  trash ha?
[08:23] <Flannel> ferronica: eh?  There is.  But not in your case, since you'll need to download most packages again for updates anyway
[08:23] <bradf0rdX>  Hey, does anyone know why I can only DL one torrent at a time w/ bittorrent?
[08:23] <ferronica> Flannel: it will format hdd and fresh install the Kdesktop
[08:24] <gb__> anyone running phpbb on ubuntu?
[08:24] <Flannel> ferronica: No, it wont.  You aren't installing a new OS.  You're installing KDE ontop of your existing Ubuntu install.
[08:24] <jscinoz> bradf0rdX, i recommend you download Azureus and use it instead of the built in BT program
[08:24] <Flannel> !anyone | gb__
[08:24] <ubotu> gb__: 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?
[08:24] <kevin> Yasuo, i think thats what it was, i left off -0- on the end of the link and it workes
[08:24] <ferronica> Flannel: okay
[08:24] <gb__> lol Flannel  u forgot me
[08:24] <gb__> heh
[08:24] <Yasuo> kevin, lol ^^
[08:24] <gb__> how are ya buddy?
[08:24] <necr0mancer> bradf0rdX: That's just how the client is.
[08:24] <necr0mancer> One torrent at a time, try a different client
[08:24] <kevin> Yasuo, thanks alot :)
[08:24] <necr0mancer> Like Azuereus(sp?)
[08:25] <jscinoz> yes
[08:25] <jscinoz> Azureus ftw
[08:25] <Nooie> hello
[08:25] <gb__> and i already did ask the question already like 2 times
[08:25] <ferronica> Flannel: you mean only GUI will change , and from GDM i can choose GNOME and KDE right
[08:25] <Flannel> gb__: doing fine.  Best to just ask your question about phpBB instead of trying to nail someone down
[08:25] <somar> i think utorrent is awesome,  is that windows only?
[08:25] <Flannel> ferronica: correct.
[08:25] <jscinoz> Does anyone know how to edit all items in the places menu, not just the ones added from bookmarks but the ones there by default
[08:25] <necr0mancer> Yeah, i think utorrent is win only
[08:25] <jscinoz> utorrent is windows but i i believe it runs well in WINE
[08:25] <gb__> Flannel,  did not mean to nail someone down
[08:25] <skinnypuppy> Is there anything to edit .FLV video with ???
[08:25] <ferronica> Flannel: and other things remain same
[08:25] <gb__> was just asking
[08:25] <Flannel> ferronica: yep
[08:26] <gb__> i 'm trying to install it myself for the first time here
[08:26] <ferronica> Flannel: one more thing if i use CD then to install KDE
[08:26] <gb__> i'm sorry if u think i was rude
[08:26] <somar> Some people have troubling running utorrent with wine, but works well with WineX/Cedega
[08:26] <Nooie> I have just installed Ubuntu on MS Virtual Machine, its working fine, I'm on it now, but for some reason when I run Firefox it can crash out and I can't do anything but move the mouse, anyone got any ideas?
[08:26] <jscinoz> pity Cedega isnt free
[08:26] <Flannel> gb__: Well, if you really just want to know, then I suppose that's a reasonable question.  But if you're looking for somone who's done it, to ask further questions to, it's best to just ask the eventual question
[08:26] <mattstang> Running Ubuntu 7.02, X.org 7.2 (can't install fglrx driver), 1440x900 screen res, losing 40-50 lines horiz, any ideas?
[08:27] <gb__> Flannel,  how do i set it up, from what i read on google, it says phpbb after install should be in /var/www
[08:27] <jscinoz> and.. the panel just crashed...
[08:27] <gb__> but i dont see anything there
[08:28] <jscinoz> How can i bind the System Monitor to Ctrl-Alt-Del
[08:28] <Nooie> I have just installed Ubuntu on MS Virtual Machine, its working fine, I'm on it now, but for some reason when I run Firefox it can crash out and I can't do anything but move the mouse, anyone got any ideas?
[08:28] <mattstang> jscinoz:  I think that'd depend on your WM
[08:28] <jscinoz> WM?
[08:28] <jscinoz> oh
[08:28] <jscinoz> metacity
[08:29] <jscinoz> =P
[08:29] <Yasuo> install IE
[08:29] <Flannel> gb__: the package doesn't seem to put anything into /var/www, you might read the READMEs in /usr/share/doc/phpbb2/
[08:29] <gb__> ok thanks
[08:29] <Tomcat_> jscinoz: That'll be difficult, because init/upstart is set to catch ctrl-alt-del to reboot. :)
[08:29] <mattstang> jscinoz:  KDE, Gnome.....
[08:29] <jscinoz> Gnome,
[08:29] <leafw> any ideas on how to take a screenshot that *includes* the mouse pointer ?
[08:29] <Nooie> was that for me?
[08:30] <jscinoz> wait nevermind..
[08:30] <mattstang> :)
[08:30] <jscinoz> just found it as an install option in automatix
[08:30] <Yasuo> leafw any ideas on how to take a screenshot that *includes* the mouse pointer ? yyy xvidcap makes videos but also screenshots and you can define to include mousepointer
[08:31] <Nooie> Anyone know of Firefox crashing?
[08:31] <Flannel> !automatix | jscinoz
[08:31] <ubotu> jscinoz: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[08:31] <Yasuo> Nooie, maybe wrong display driver? dunno, install internetexplorer@wine XD
[08:31] <somar> what is the ntfs package I need to install again? ntfs_3g?

[08:31] <jscinoz> I know flannel, im not asking for help with it =P
[08:32] <[Neurotic] > still trying to get my usb network cable working, I have noted that usbnet is core to ubuntu, but when I plug in my usb cable, both eth0 and usb0 get IP addresses? You can see ifconfig, and route -n here http://www.pasteserver.net/1044 I assume I need to tell ubuntu to somehow resolve one or the other?
[08:32] <jscinoz> Next question: How can one edit all items in the places menu, not just the ones added from bookmarks but the ones there by default
[08:32] <al-kk> How could I run a program on a DuoCore computer let it use one cpu only?

[08:32] <al-kk> help
[08:32] <Nooie> Hi Yansuo, Sorry new to IRC and Linux, I'm a serious windows freak. Where can I get IE from? if Firefox doesn't work?
[08:32] <rAstari> HELP I've trawled the net with this error everytime I try load anything using a GUI - ""unable to copy users xauthorization file"
[08:33] <rAstari> what does it portend?
[08:33] <Toma-> Nooie: firefox will work.
[08:33] <al-kk> how could the programs run just using one cpu on a DuoCore pc?
[08:33] <bradf0rdX> jscinoz, k sweet, thank you.
[08:33] <Nooie> Toma - Its been crashing the whole system out.
[08:33] <jscinoz> Nooie, if you really want IE http://www.tatanka.com.br/
[08:33] <al-kk> how could the programs run just using one cpu on a DuoCore pc?
[08:33] <Toma-> Nooie: IE wont solve your problems. Try running "galeon" as an alternative
[08:34] <Toma-> Nooie: at least till you fix firefox :)
[08:34] <mattstang> if its not multithreaded app
[08:34] <mattstang> al-kk
[08:34] <jscinoz> How can one edit all items in the places menu, not just the ones added from bookmarks but the ones there by default?
[08:34] <Nooie> Toma: New to linux but hopefully I'll get there :-)
[08:34] <al-kk> Mattstang,
[08:34] <rAstari> anyone know the meaning to this error - "unable to copy users xauthorization file"
[08:35] <al-kk> Mattstang, the problem is the program's timing function goes to a Duoble speed
[08:35] <Toma-> Nooie: Have you read the User Guide that comes with Ubuntu? its a massive help to get used to using Ubuntu :)
[08:35] <mattstang> al-kk, just one app is doing this?  or all apps?
[08:35] <Wiseguy> hey guys, can anyone recommend a decent torrent app?
[08:35] <sorsis> is there way to contact wine package maintainer. i need wine on A64
[08:35] <al-kk> Mattstang, just one , the VBA  visual playboy
[08:36] <Nooie> Toma: off the website?
[08:36] <Toma-> Wiseguy: deluge
[08:36] <al-kk> Mattstang, just one , the VBA  visual playboy adv
[08:36] <MM2_> Wiseguy: azureus?
[08:36] <mwe> jscinoz: I think you need to mess with the files in /var/lib/gnome. they will be overwritten when you update, though.
[08:36] <rAstari> anyone know the meaning to this error - "unable to copy users xauthorization file"
[08:36] <Toma-> Nooie: nope, Click SYstem, then Help + SUpport
[08:36] <jscinoz> ok thanks
[08:36] <al-kk> Mattstang, could I use any command to solve it?
[08:36] <mattstang> al-kk, I'd send an email to the support folks for that app... sounds like its not multithreaded
[08:37] <jscinoz> mwe, i don't have a gnome folder in /var/lib
[08:37] <Nooie> Toma: Found, and reading. Thanks!
[08:37] <cwraig> wiseguy: Azureus is a bit of a pain int he arse cause it needs java
[08:37] <al-kk> Mattstang, yes, thank you
[08:37] <Wiseguy> cwraig, do you have an alternate suggestion?
[08:37] <rAstari> anyone know the meaning to this error - "unable to copy users xauthorization file"
[08:37] <al-kk> Mattstang, but in the program the time goes too fast
[08:37] <al-kk> Mattstang, the time goes double speed
[08:38] <mattstang> al-kk, all the more reason to report to the support folks for the app... sounds like a bug to me :)
[08:38] <skinnypuppy> Finally using XP on VMware server on feisty with beryl. I can't belive this all works on 256 megs of 133 ram !
[08:38] <Toma-> Nooie: no problem! if you have any problems with anything, come ask for help in here, and if you dont get a reponse straight away, wait a few minutes, or make a coffee, or read digg and ask again. failing that, post your question on the ubuntuforums!
[08:38] <mattstang> Running Ubuntu 7.02, X.org 7.2 (can't install fglrx driver), 1440x900 screen res, losing 40-50 lines horiz, any ideas?
[08:38] <Eythan> Here comes the sun!
[08:38] <Eythan> It's working
[08:38] <al-kk> Mattstang, thanks, bless you
[08:38] <Nooie> Toma: Cool will do. Once again thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
[08:38] <mattstang> al-kk, sorry I couldn't be more help
[08:39] <mattstang> al-kk, sometimes, that is the only route to go
[08:39] <rAstari> why can I only run apps with sudo, but not the gui?
[08:39] <[Neurotic] > What is 'link-local' on a routing table? ... I'm not sure what it means?
[08:39] <jxxxt> rAstari: www.ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-367176.html it does not look good though!!
[08:39] <al-kk> Mattstang, thanks
[08:39] <mattstang> rAstari, all apps????
[08:39] <Toma-> Nooie: no probs :) also, if youre using xhat right now for chat, you can hit tab to "Auto Complete" someones nickname
[08:39] <rAstari> mattstang:mostly apps that require admin rights
[08:40] <Eythan> I'm officially no longer setting up a dual-boot, my computer didn't want that
[08:40] <Nooie> Toma: Its Gaim, I think.
[08:40] <dooglus> is it possible to restart the beagle indexer without rebooting or logging out&in?
[08:40] <Eythan> I'm going to be fully Ubuntued.
[08:40] <mwe> jscinoz: /var/lib/menu-xdg or something. the .desktop files. try locate .desktop
[08:40] <mattstang> rAstari, apps that are owned by root should require sudo access... otherwise that'd be a security hole
[08:40] <dooglus> it seems to have stopped working
[08:40] <Toma-> Nooie: ahh never mind then :)
[08:40] <skinnypuppy> Dumb question perhaps, but could I install OSX onto a desktop pc using Vmserver on feisty?
[08:40] <berent> I wonder why we should rip to see a vcd/dvd
[08:41] <phy3> Eythan, do you have two hard disks?
[08:41] <mattstang> skinnypuppy, I doubt it...
[08:41] <Eythan> phy3 Unfortunately, no
[08:41] <Eythan> phy3 I was trying to set up partitions, but it would seem Windows had other ideas
[08:41] <azhar> test
[08:41] <dooglus> !beagled
[08:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beagled - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:41] <dooglus> !beagle
[08:41] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about beagle - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:41] <phy3> I run linux on one, Win on the other, choose boout using BIOS, works fine, no conflicts
[08:41] <skinnypuppy> Just wondering since they have the intel based procs now
[08:41] <Eythan> phy3 In the process, I destroyed my XP install :P
[08:41] <mattstang> skinnypuppy, does VMware server even support OSX at this time?  my understanding is that it does not
[08:42] <Eythan> phy3 And I no longer have the restored discs, so Ubuntu = a go go
[08:42] <skinnypuppy> noob , just wondering.
[08:42] <mwe> !info beagle
[08:42] <ubotu> beagle: indexing and search tool for your personal data. In component main, is optional. Version 0.2.16.3-0ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 883 kB, installed size 3892 kB
[08:42] <phy3> GRUB is on linux disk, has no clue for windows, windows never disturbed by linux
[08:42] <mattstang> skinnypuppy, I think you'd have to run it not via virtual machine
[08:42] <rAstari> mattstang: what I mean is, I have to go to console to run synaptic, or firestarter, indeed any app that requires admin rights, I cant just choose them from the gui
[08:42] <berent> I wonder why we should rip to see a vcd/dvd
[08:43] <jumbers> Is there any way to get rid of that tiny pause XMMS does between songs?
[08:43] <mattstang> skinnypuppy, I know you used to have to use some app called bootcamp before to run OSX on a core duo proc PC
[08:43] <rAstari> jxxxt: yeah, saw that one earlier, but I dont have a server install - I really dont want to reinstall ubuntu
[08:43] <dooglus> mwe: I have beagle installed, and it has been working in the past, but now it seems to have stopped indexing new files I make.  I wondering how to restart it without logging out
[08:44] <skinnypuppy> I'm installing mastercam on my first XP virtual machine right now. can't belive how well feisty works with beryl.... great!
[08:44] <gb__> nah no luck
[08:44] <mattstang> Running Ubuntu 7.02, X.org 7.2 (can't install fglrx driver), 1440x900 screen res, losing 40-50 lines horiz, any ideas?
[08:44] <jxxxt> rAstari: Fair enough I did not know so I just had a quick google to see if there was anything ;-)
[08:44] <rAstari> jumbers: go to xmms prefs, click  the o0ptions tab, look for "silence between songs"
[08:45] <mattstang> rAstari, I'm not really familiar with those apps, check to see whom owns the binary
[08:46] <ltracy> hi, anybody have any pointers on the best way to easily migrate between wireless networks?  I keep having trouble switching from one to another.

[08:47] <kod> *have
[08:47] <mattstang> kod, just ask dood
[08:47] <jumbers> rAstari: It's not that, it's a very short pause.
[08:47] <eternaljoy> anyone gotten quake4-demo to work on feisty?
[08:47] <jumbers> rAstari: I'd say less than half a second
[08:47] <kod> so if i start ubuntu normally, my gdm fails to start correctly. i get a black screen.
[08:48] <ltracy> I want to be able to set preferred networks, and have it automatically connect to the most preferred
[08:48] <kod> if i start in matinence mode, then start up gdm it works fine
[08:48] <kod> anyindeas?
[08:48] <jxxxt> ltracy: when I was switching networks all the time I just opened the gui network thing and selected the one I wanted
[08:48] <kod> gah, *any ideas
[08:48] <ltracy> jxxxt it seems to not rerun dhclient or something when I switch sometimes.. Maybe I was doing something wrong.
[08:49] <ltracy> kod check /var/log/XOrg.0.log

[08:50] <bullgard4> What 'embedded controller' is meant in my directory /proc/acpi/embedded_controller/EC0/ ?
[08:50] <rAstari> jumbers: is the music on a the same partition as ubuntu, or is it on another partition?
[08:50] <jxxxt> ltracy: Might be that the network is too weak to form a  good connection that caught me a few times
[08:50] <codenamexiii> Hey guys, trying to Install the MP3 plugin for GStreamer, or is there any quick for Mp3 support for Ubuntu, I just installed it.
[08:50] <ltracy> jxxxt the ones on campus are a little weird too.. they do a noCat thing which messes things up sometimes

[08:51] <ltracy> kod, probably.. is that how it ends?
[08:51] <Dramakus> can some1 help me w/ setting up my screen resolutions?  for some reason whenever I enable my nvidia driver it restricts my resolution to 800x600 and it removes all title bars.
[08:52] <codenamexiii> Is there any easy way to install a MP3 encoder?
[08:52] <ltracy> kod, btw- I think that log is from the last time X started, so if you've booted successfully more than once, it isn't relavent
[08:52] <ltracy> (i.e. in your recovery mode twice)
[08:52] <kod> mmkay, i can reboot and then check it before i restart x
[08:52] <kod> .old doesn't say anything either
[08:52] <ltracy> kod: it should tell you why it didn't start
[08:53] <codenamexiii> Can anyone help?
[08:53] <kod> i think it stalls

[08:58] <mypapit> hello ubuntuter
[08:58] <DanaG> Another odd thing: sometimes the console starts scrolling weirdly:
[08:58] <mattstang> Dramakus, might have something to do with your monitor VertRefresh or Hsync
[08:58] <DanaG> where it'll move horizontally, too.
[08:58] <Dramakus> I've tried that i used 60 hz which I know is compatible

[09:02] <DanaG> Oh, install Filelight for a nifty disk-usage graph.

[09:16] <crdlb> vm: you'll have a much easier time with compiz
[09:16] <crdlb> vm: do you have fglrx working?
[09:16] <wehttamb_> how do i get emerald to aply its themes in beryl
[09:16] <lethu> fierycleric, I don't really know, you should look in the ubuntu forums
[09:16] <vm> I am new to linux, but after my third attempt, I have the ati proprietry drivers working, and when i fglrxinfo into terminal all seems well
[09:17] <crdlb> vm: then use: method A of https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/Xgl
[09:17] <crdlb> to set up Xgl
[09:18] <vm> oh yeah, and is it advisable, when it gives u 2 options to take the terminal route? cause i have been doin that a fair bit and seems like a quicker way to do it
[09:19] <crdlb> vm: what do you mean?
[09:19] <crdlb> just use Method A
[09:19] <vm> heh, i mean is it worth me learning terminal
[09:19] <worsnak> seems like ubuntu will be going places. http://www.businessweek.com/globalbiz/content/may2007/gb20070509_681142.htm?chan=top+news_top+news+index_global+business

[09:20] <mattstang> Need help with downgrading Xorg in Edgy from 7.2 to 7.1
[09:20] <eshaase> so what does it mean when my system freezes and my hard disk starts clicking?
[09:21] <mattstang> eshaase, something bad is happening
[09:21] <eshaase> mattstang: what specifically?
[09:21] <mattstang> bad hard drive most likely
[09:21] <mattstang> or on its last leg
[09:21] <phy2> Disk noises are not a good thing.
[09:21] <vm> eshaase: something very bad, If the physical drive is clicking its gonna die pretty soon, backup everything, then get a new hdd?
[09:21] <mattstang> if it goes zzzzztick........zzzzzzzztick
[09:22] <mattstang> then that usually means disk is done
[09:22] <worsnak> are debian and ubuntu packages interchangable?
[09:22] <MikeB-> worsnak, no
[09:23] <eternaljoy> anyone here experienced to know what causes these errors when running quake4-demo pls?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20127/
[09:23] <wehttamb_> i installed beryl and emerald but emerald wont aply any of it themes wen i click on them
[09:23] <worsnak> if i am now debian and i want to switch ubuntu, it would mean a complete re-installation?
[09:23] <wehttamb_> how do i aply them
[09:24] <eshaase> i have two hard drives, what can i use to determine which hard drive is bad?
[09:24] <MikeB-> worsnak: yes, the both use a debian base, but some of the libraries  and the kernel are greatly different
[09:24] <vm> so, could someone explain to me what a shell script is?
[09:25] <wehttamb_> how do i aply emerald themes to beryl
[09:25] <worsnak> MikeB-: i think this is something ubuntu folks should work on, making it a seamless effort to switchover fr debian.
[09:25] <phy2> shell script, basically a list of commands in a text file
[09:25] <lethu> vm, did you ever use windows?
[09:25] <phy2> you mean DOS
[09:26] <ssaa> please i need some help please . I have an Ati 64 MB video card and i dont know why beryl doesn't look as good as in an intel 950 32MB card from a friend. maybe i'm missing a driver?
[09:26] <lethu> phy2, dos or windows, in both of them you find .bat files which are the equivalent of shell scripts
[09:26] <worsnak> MikeB-: when even the kernel is greatly different, what debian base is there to speak of?
[09:26] <MikeB-> worsnak: I do not think is would be as easy as you think
[09:26] <vm> oh k
[09:26] <Frogzoo> vm: a shell script is just a file that feeds commands to your shell instead of you entering them yourself - but it's very powerful and has all the functionality of a full blown programming language
[09:27] <vm> yes being a 17 year old that goes too highschool i know my way around bat files lol
[09:27] <phy2> That's what I meant to say
[09:27] <vm> Frogzoo: ty
[09:27] <lethu> vm, : )
[09:28] <vm> and is there a difference between using the sudo command in terminal, instead of gksudo?
[09:28] <mattstang> vm, "man sudo" then "man gksudo" :)
[09:29] <vm> lol wow, that helps ty
[09:29] <mattstang> hehe, sorry... I'm getting cranky because I'm getting no love ;)
[09:29] <vm> lol i am a linux virgin here
[09:30] <mattstang> oh, well man pages are a GREAT way to start learning quickly
[09:30] <mattstang> vm, some of it will be over your head, but you can grab some key points... and I'd bet you can find the differences
[09:31] <Frogzoo> !docs

[09:32] <mattstang> Anyone gone through the process of downgrading Xorg from 7.2 to 7.1 in Ubuntu 7.02?
[09:32] <vm> heh i will pic it up pretty quick
[09:33] <Defian> Nope. Why would you want to?
[09:33] <glitchz> hows australia vm?
[09:33] <stbcomp> hi all
[09:33] <denardo> I have to clear 500M off my / partition to upgrade to feisty, even after a "sudo apt-get clean" and removing /var/log/*.gz . Any ideas what else I can clear off?
[09:33] <vm> lol someone been whois ay, tis awesome
[09:33] <mattstang> Defian, my screen res is set to 1440x900... but it sure seems that its more like 1440x940
[09:33] <mattstang> xwininfo is report 1440x900
[09:34] <bullgard4> What 'embedded controller' is meant in my directory /proc/acpi/embedded_controller/EC0/ ?
[09:34] <zilly66> !dvd

[09:34] <Defian> I see
[09:34] <vm> brb, time to c if xgl works *cross fingers*
[09:34] <Defian> you should be able to just edit it
[09:34] <mattstang> so I want to install ati fglrx drivers
[09:34] <stbcomp> Anybody had any luck in getting an saa7134 tv card working on feisty?
[09:34] <kraut> moin
[09:34] <Defian> 7134?
[09:34] <mattstang> which does not support Xorg 7.2
[09:34] <stbcomp> hmmm one sec
[09:34] <virdiq> denardo, do this: find / -type f -size +20000k -exec ls -lh {} \; | awk '{ print $9 ": " $5 }'
[09:35] <Defian> stbcomp heh I have the same card
[09:35] <stbcomp> any luck with it defian?
[09:35] <virdiq> denardo: it'll print all files larger than 20MB on your system... so you can use it to see if there are any really large wastes of space
[09:35] <pirx> hey! i have installed ubuntu, and my wireless network card seems to work. in the network manager applet i see the 3 wireless networks that i think i should see, but the signal strength seems to be zero (according to the network manager applet)... its a stationary computer with a pci card (ifconfig calls it ra0). my laptop right next to it (also running ubuntu) connects just fine to the network. what could be the problem?
[09:35] <Defian> afraid not, it's actually part of the reason I came in here, stbcomp
[09:35] <virdiq> denardo: but don't just delete files! you need to make sure they're not part of an existing application/package... and if they are, remove the package properly using apt
[09:36] <stbcomp> aha
[09:36] <stbcomp> so I'm not alone here
[09:36] <Dramakus> u still in here stang?
[09:36] <Defian> is it the cheapy kworld one off of newegg? lol
[09:36] <pirx> when i run "iwlist scan" it says that the link quality is 71/100, whatever that m,eans
[09:36] <vm> hrm my login screen has like the biggest reso i have ever seen, and the text is miniscule, any ideas how to fix?
[09:36] <stbcomp> just one that came with the pc
[09:36] <coz_> doesn anyone here know where to find libgtkglextmm .it was missing in feisty one week before release and  i cannot find it
[09:36] <Defian> ah
[09:36] <stbcomp> it's a lifeview
[09:36] <Defian> I got mine for $20
[09:36] <mattstang> Dramakus, yup
[09:36] <denardo> virdiq: Checking now...
[09:36] <stbcomp> makes you wonder.......
[09:37] <stbcomp> I'll let you know if I come up with anything
[09:37] <vm> hrm my login screen has like the biggest reso i have ever seen, and the text is miniscule, any ideas how to fix?? sorry bout the spam but cant test xgl till i fix it >_<
[09:37] <Defian> likewise
[09:38] <stbcomp> thanks
[09:38] <denardo> virdiq: That may not be acting as expected. I'm getting a lot of lines that say, for example, "and: 27M"
[09:38] <stbcomp> Mines a flytv platinum mini
[09:39] <lethu> vm, is the screen reso the same even after logging in?
[09:39] <vm> no, i changed it once i logged in, but the logon screen is still massive
[09:40] <lethu> vm, check your xorg.conf file's resolutions
[09:40] <vm> okay
[09:40] <denardo> virdiq: Looks like an awk problem. And it's also looking at my Windows partition which it doesn;t need to. But it's a start.
[09:40] <mattstang> invoke xwininfo and click your background... it'll tell you the actual resolution
[09:41] <vm> holy crap i even remembered the command and location lol, *tears of pride* :P
[09:41] <eternaljoy> any1 know where I can get Enemy Territory for Ubuntu pls?
[09:41] <lethu> vm, lol
[09:41] <mattstang> also check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[09:42] <lethu> eternaljoy, google for the .run installer for linux
[09:42] <vm> lethu, what exactly am i looking for, cause i cant find anymention of the 1960x something reso that the logon screen is at
[09:42] <eternaljoy> lethu: quake4 wont run!  can u look at the errors for me?
[09:44] <lethu> vm, look for what is the default resolution in your conf file
[09:44] <brutopia> eternaljoy: just paste them in pastebin.ca

[09:53] <lethu> vm, ok one moment plz
[09:53] <mattstang> Still looking for help with downgrading Xorg to 7.1 (ati fglrx driver doesn't support Xorg 7.2).  If anyone can help I'd be very grateful
[09:53] <H264> quick question
[09:53] <brutopia> eternaljoy: it seems that you should install restricted drivers for your display adapter
[09:53] <brutopia> which version of ubuntu are you using
[09:53] <eternaljoy> brutopia: what do you mean?
[09:53] <H264> how many different DVD editions are there?
[09:53] <eternaljoy> brutopia: feisty
[09:53] <idefix> felipec: yes but the installer will still download about 700mb of deb files
[09:54] <H264> (for Ubuntu only)
[09:54] <brutopia> okay, type sudo restricted-manager in console
[09:54] <eternaljoy> ok
[09:54] <mattstang> H264, dvd editions?
[09:54] <eternaljoy> brutopia: 2 items show
[09:54] <mattstang> H264, ohhh... of the livecd/installcd?
[09:54] <H264> mattstang: yeah
[09:54] <brutopia> eternaljoy: could you tell names of those items
[09:55] <mattstang> H264, should be just CD editions unless you order them
[09:55] <eternaljoy> brutopia: wirless and the other: Nvida allceratoed grapgics driver = NOT in use
[09:55] <H264> mattstang: I think there is only one - that covers both live and alternate
[09:55] <Gorlist> Morning
[09:55] <brutopia> install that nvidia thing
[09:55] <felipec> idefix: hmm, the system will be exactly the same? so when I update it will download the same pagackages?
[09:55] <lethu> vm, are you using dual screen?
[09:55] <eternaljoy> brutopia: you mean select it?
[09:55] <brutopia> yes
[09:55] <H264> mattstang: I am working on labels right now, and would like to be through
[09:55] <vm> lethu, no
[09:56] <eternaljoy> brussel: ok i click on Enabled
[09:56] <mattstang> H264, there is desktop and server... and there is two versions.... I think they are Fiesty and edgy
[09:56] <mattstang> 6.xx and 7.02
[09:56] <eternaljoy> brutopia: saus need reboot
[09:56] <mattstang> the 6.xx version has LTS... longer support
[09:56] <idefix> felipec: what do you mean by update?
[09:56] <brutopia> then reboot and try quake 4 again
[09:56] <Gorlist> Slight problem, yesterday got the latest ATI drivers working lovely - boot up this morning to fine OpenGL rendering has gone back to Mesa - any suggestions!
[09:56] <eternaljoy> brutopia: what do I do if ubuntu wont start with X error?
[09:56] <H264> mattstang: ok
[09:56] <brutopia> it made a backup of your xorg.conf
[09:56] <brutopia> restore it to the same name and it takes old settings to use
[09:57] <eternaljoy> ok
[09:57] <Gorlist> one moment
[09:57] <eternaljoy> brb
[09:57] <idefix> felipec: but the system will be exactly the same... the installer will let you chose what to install ubuntu, kbuntu, xubuntu etc.
[09:57] <H264> mattstang: thanks :)
[09:57] <mattstang> H264, np dood!
[09:57] <idefix> felipec: and it will download the aproprate packages
[09:57] <felipec> idefix: update the system, apt-get update I guess
[09:57] <Gorlist> the concurrent xorg.conf file appears to be correct?
[09:57] <Gorlist> so has it just loaded a backup?
[09:58] <lethu> vm, I am not familiar with ati xorg configurations that's why I might be wrong but your second screen section looks weird to me
[09:58] <Defian> stbcomp, i think i got it figured out
[09:58] <idefix> felipec: well i thought u were talking about a fresh install.. if you want to upgrade your system its 'apt-get upgarde'
[09:58] <stbcomp> yeah?
[09:59] <Defian> lemme get you a link
[09:59] <stbcomp> ta
[09:59] <stbcomp> You here in oz?
[09:59] <bobslaede> anybody know of a caldav web-based client?
[09:59] <Defian> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=321533&highlight=saa7134
[09:59] <lethu> vm, let me edit the file for you ok?
[09:59] <Defian> third post
[09:59] <Gorlist> eternaljoy: just checked the current xorg.conf - seems to be set correctly
[09:59] <Defian> i followed what he did
[09:59] <vm> okay
[09:59] <stbcomp> Thanks for that, I'll give it a go
[09:59] <lethu> vm, 1min
[09:59] <idefix> felipec: in any case take a look at this http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php/Ubuntu_PXE_Install
[09:59] <Defian> (cept his typo of 1734 instead of 7134)
[09:59] <Defian> now it works
[09:59] <Defian> so far anyway
[09:59] <Defian> gotta test it now
[09:59] <Defian> it gets a picture though
[10:00] <Defian> so it's a step
[10:00] <sorsis> actually i would like to make installation disk again
[10:00] <Nanu> Hi room
[10:00] <sorsis> i would like to make put "Ruvuntu" as Raw Ubuntu on installation disk
[10:00] <felipec> idefix: I don't want that, I just want to download a small image, like to create an USB disk, so I can install Ubuntu from there
[10:01] <sorsis> then put that welcome center to be excecuted before huge amount of packages is installed
[10:01] <stbcomp> well done defian, I'll be back in a sec
[10:01] <vm> Lethu, i will brb, found a possible work around
[10:01] <lethu> vm, ok
[10:01] <felipec> idefix: and since obviously the first thing I'm going to do is update, I thought maybe it was a good idea that instead of downloading lets say kernel-2.6.20 and then download again kernel-2.6.21, download .21 the first time
[10:01] <idefix> felipec: afaik know ubuntu does not provide such an image.
[10:01] <Defian> GOOGLE IS YOUR GOD! BOW BEFORE IT! MUAHAHAHAH *cough* :P
[10:02] <sorsis> Is there some more experienced guy who would have a bit of time to negotiate with me?
[10:02] <felipec> idefix: all right, but does what I say makes sense?
[10:02] <Gerro> sorsis: me pick me, I'm the more experienced newbie
[10:03] <vm> gargh that was a failed attempt lol
[10:03] <hooper> How so I write a simple script for ubuntu?
[10:03] <Nanu> I have an out hard desk,, I can not write any file on it ,,, how can I??
[10:03] <idefix> felipec: if you want to save bandwith yes.. cauz if you download the cd and then upgrade you'll have to re-download updatet packages.. so yes it makes sense.
[10:03] <Gerro> Nanu: you want to write a file to your desk?
[10:03] <lethu> vm, hehe, I think I found your solution
[10:03] <Nanu> Gerro yes
[10:03] <Gerro> felipec: don't get full package unless you have no internet at your house
[10:04] <denardo> virdiq: Hmm, didn't find any usefully huge files or directories.
[10:04] <anathematic> :( someone want to help me out installing ubuntu for half a second?
[10:04] <stbcomp> I'm still getting a blue screen here
[10:04] <Gerro> Nanu: well get out a chisel and a hammer and start chipping away at it? is it like steel or wooden desk?
[10:04] <felipec> Gerro: ehm, parse error
[10:04] <anathematic> i booted it from the cd fine and when i click to install it the screen turns off
[10:04] <felipec> Gerro: come again?
[10:04] <Gerro> felipec: kool, with what?
[10:05] <vm> lethu, if you did you are my new god, although u shall still be second to packages and multiple desktops, but please do tell :P
[10:05] <idefix> felipec: the network install will help you there though - it does fetch the packages from the current (up to date) repository.
[10:05] <lethu> vm, lol oki
[10:05] <lethu> vm, let me paste it
[10:05] <Defian> stbcomp, are you using tvtime?
[10:05] <Nanu> Geroo: it is a laptop Desk in a box .. with a USB cable
[10:06] <Gorlist> Right guys, eternaljoy suggest my Ubuntu was using a backup file of the xorg.conf ?
[10:06] <stbcomp> Yep
[10:06] <felipec> idefix: by network install you are refering to the PXE install?
[10:06] <eternaljoy> when I enabled Nvida accelrator, X wont start
[10:06] <idefix> idefix: yes
[10:06] <Gorlist> as for somereason It stopped loading 3d Accel. instead used Messa
[10:06] <Defian> right click, hit input configuration, and see if you can change the video source
[10:06] <Defian> i had to use composite2
[10:06] <eternaljoy> Gorlist: I was???
[10:06] <stbcomp> okay one sec
[10:06] <Gorlist> i check my xorg.conf file and its correct
[10:06] <Gorlist> yes :)
[10:07] <graveson1> what tool can i use to encode from divx(avi) to h.264 using preferably a gui
[10:07] <Gorlist> sorry it was brutopia :)
[10:07] <dimebar> graveson1: acidrip ?
[10:07] <Nanu> Gerro:  it is a laptop Desk in a box .. with a USB cable
[10:07] <Gorlist> brutopia: I checked the Xorg.conf and it appears to be correct?
[10:07] <H264> graveson1: VLC works alright :)
[10:07] <virdiq> denardo: maybe try removing as many packages as possible, update to Feisty, then reinstall as many of the original packages as possible --- the reason being that the upgrade may need a lot of temporary space to work, which is cleared up after the update
[10:07] <Nanu> Nanu:
[10:08] <Gerro> Nanu: I have no clue what your talking about really...
[10:08] <eternaljoy> brutopia: it didnt work!  X wont start
[10:08] <Gerro> Nanu: are you trying to mount a hard drive under linux using a live cd?
[10:08] <denardo> I wonder if I could lend some space to the / partition from the /home partition.
[10:08] <idefix> felipec: still there is another thing you should consider. if you at any point want to reinstall you'll have to redownload the whole dist again. you dont have to do that if you got the cd.
[10:08] <H264> graveson1: did you catch that?
[10:09] <lethu> vm, here you go http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20133/
[10:09] <eternaljoy> brutopia: you here?
[10:09] <stbcomp> No dice, still a blue screen
[10:09] <Defian> blue screen eh? hm
[10:09] <H264> heheh
[10:09] <Defian> i only get a blue screen in television mode
[10:10] <felipec> idefix: right, but if 90% of the packages are updated already and Ubuntu supported install from latest that wouldn't matter
[10:10] <Nanu> Gerro: no .. it is simple . I have portable Hard desk.. It is mounted and I can read it ,, but I cannot write to it
[10:10] <vm> lethu, time to test it brb
[10:10] <stbcomp> If I change to anything but television or television mono, I get a black screen and can't choose Channel Management
[10:10] <H264> Nanu: what is it formatted as?
[10:10] <felipec> idefix: PXE installs are great, but that's not what I want right now
[10:10] <Defian> ah, well all i'm trying to with mine is plugin a game console
[10:11] <Nanu> NTFS
[10:11] <Defian> which works fine on composite 2
[10:11] <stbcomp> okay
[10:11] <H264> Nanu :/
[10:11] <Defian> are you trying to make use of the tuner function?
[10:11] <stbcomp> yep
[10:11] <idefix> felipec: in that case i guess you're stuck with the cd.
[10:11] <Nanu> H264: maybe i matter of permissions
[10:11] <Defian> well, if it means anything it lets me choose channel management
[10:12] <stbcomp> weird this one
[10:12] <Defian> yeah
[10:12] <felipec> idefix: right
[10:12] <Nanu> I tried to do it on terminal .. it says: ( only read )
[10:12] <stbcomp> I guess I'll have to troll the forums and see what I can find
[10:13] <Defian> well good luck
[10:13] <H264> Nanu: well... perhaps, but I don't know if Ubuntu can write to NTFS, the problem is that Microsoft owns and keeps to its self the writing portion of NTFS
[10:13] <Defian> I on the other hand, need sleep.
[10:13] <valehru_> what is the fastest and easiest mail server I could set up?
[10:13] <vm> lethu it fixed the reso, but not the text, and now the largest reso i can set my desktop at is 1024x768 instead of the 1280x1024 like before
[10:13] <felipec> idefix: I'm giving Ubuntu another try, I'm a Fedora user, so far F 1 - U 0, I can download an 8MB image, burn it, and install from FTP
[10:13] <Nanu> H264: well ,, fuck Microsoft
[10:14] <Nanu> Cya
[10:14] <stbcomp> Thanks Defian, that was a start mate
[10:14] <stbcomp> I'll let you know how it goes
[10:14] <H264> Nanu: even if you could write to it after a while it might not work
[10:14] <lethu> vm, that's not a problem you can add any reso you want that your monitor can support
[10:14] <Defian> sure thing
[10:14] <idefix> felipec: yup debian can do that in a similar way. but afaik ubuntu does not even have a 'base package' without all the desktop stuff.
[10:14] <vm> lol any ideas how to fix text then?
[10:14] <H264> Nanu: somewhere I read something about that happening
[10:14] <lethu> vm, what's exactly the problem with the text?
[10:15] <crabgrass> okay, so i saw "filesystem is NOT clean" when i rebooted just now, and everything is lagging up right now, what's going on?
[10:15] <vm> lol its smaller then an ant
[10:15] <idefix> felipec: so its either all or nothing.. i might be wrong though i my selfe swtiched from etch a few week ago :)
[10:15] <Nanu> H264: can i format it?
[10:15] <stbcomp> have a good sleep
[10:15] <H264> Nanu: you dual boot?
[10:15] <lethu> vm, lol hmm can't help you there sorry, am no expert with ants : x
[10:16] <H264> Nanu: or is that just an extra storage disk for windows?
[10:16] <felipec> idefix: hm, yeah, in Ubuntu you don't choose which packages you want at installation time right? all the stuff that's in the CD is installed
[10:16] <vm> haha, but i need to be able to choose session, and i cant see the text to do so ><
[10:16] <graveson1> dimebar: acidrip is for audio ,but i will check it out
[10:16] <graveson1> H264: thanks i will check it out
[10:17] <H264> graveson1: thanks for what?
[10:17] <Nanu> H264: it is a desk on a box with USB cable connected to the USB port in my motherboard
[10:17] <lethu> vm, ask somebody else as I have no idea what it might be coming from sorry
[10:17] <dimebar> graveson1: you can use it for video stuff too
[10:17] <Nanu> I don't no what do u call this kind of desks
[10:17] <vm> kk np, ty for ur help
[10:18] <idefix> felipec: pretty much yes.. they have got one meta package and that pulls all the other ones with it. so essential all you do is chose your top-level package, kbuntu -kde, ubuntu -gnome. and thats it.
[10:18] <H264> Nanu: ok, you use it for extra storage only?
[10:18] <lethu> vm, yw good luck
[10:18] <Nanu> H264: yes
[10:18] <H264> Nanu: Great :)
[10:18] <Ukendt> Hey
[10:18] <idefix> felipec: i like that for my desktop system though. cauz its not as bloated as it sound.. i mean its just the basic 700mb :)
[10:18] <valehru_> !mail
[10:18] <ubotu> mail is another medium to communicate. Ubuntu mailinglists can be found at http://lists.ubuntu.com
[10:18] <valehru_> !mail server
[10:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mail server - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:18] <valehru_> !postfix
[10:18] <ubotu> postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[10:19] <H264> Nanu: Linux (and everything else for that matter) works quite well with FAT32, which is what I would format it as...
[10:19] <felipec> idefix: yes, but I rarely use bare desktop, I usually install development packages right away
[10:19] <vm> lethu, one last thing, how do i get it back to 1280x1024?
[10:19] <idefix> felipec: go gentoo ;)
[10:20] <pirx> i am trying to compile a driver for a wireless network card. it asks me to provide the path for the (compiled and built) target kernel
[10:20] <Nanu> H264L: great ,, tell me how to make it FAT32
[10:20] <Dramakus> steed?
[10:20] <H264> Nanu: which OS are you using that it is plugged into?
[10:20] <pirx> so i entered /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.20-15. but thats not right,right? :)
[10:21] <Nanu> H264: I gotta go
[10:21] <lethu> vm, just add "1280x1024" before "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" in the Modes line
[10:21] <Nanu> Cya
[10:21] <lethu> vm, don't forget the space
[10:21] <idefix> felipec: but honestly give debian a try.. its essentially the same and offers everything you want.
[10:21] <H264> Nanu: ok cy :)
[10:21] <felipec> idefix: I don't want to mess with the whole system =/, only some stuff
[10:21] <H264> *cya
[10:22] <idefix> felipec: debian has a base meta package that is very small - essentially just installs apt and friends and from there on you can install all the packages you want.
[10:23] <H264> this place is crazy with 1,000+ ppl in it - all trying to say something at the same time
[10:23] <phy2> Not all
[10:24] <H264> fine, half :)
[10:24] <Do``> could someone help me with this issue? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2616708#post2616708
[10:24] <H264> heh, it is still kinda crazy :)
[10:24] <denardo> Well, I tried removing /var/cache/apt/archives/ and recreating it as a symlink to space on a partition where I *do* have space. So now update manager completely craps out while just looking at the system.
[10:24] <idefix> H264: filter you information dude
[10:24] <vm> lol fixed reso w00t, now to fix this text ><
[10:25] <denardo> ANyone know if having that as a symlink is a bad thing?
[10:25] <lethu> vm, hehe, forums are your friends : )
[10:25] <felipec> idefix: I gave debian a try, I will never like it, but Ubuntu was not that bad 3 years ago
[10:26] <nopcode> where can i find pthreads documentation?
[10:26] <idefix> denardo: you can do that no problem
[10:26] <denardo> idefix: so any clue why my update manager is dying?
[10:27] <phy2> I'm here after 3 years away from linux to see what the "state of the art" is, particularly how it sets with new users... Looks grim for the casual adopter if it doesn't go perfectly... Then as soon as nuuser learns something, it gets broke some more... bummer
[10:27] <idefix> denardo: hmm ok.. if you want to update that -might- be another issue i know apt has no problmes with it. i dont know how the update manager handles it.
[10:28] <pirx> come on, please tell me what the path to the "compiled and built target kernel" is:)
[10:28] <phy2> My case, I had to disconnect two IDE drives, and remove a second video card, to get the live insttall to go
[10:28] <felipec> nopcode: google: man pthread
[10:28] <idefix> denardo: even though there is no reason for it not to work.. did you try starting the update-manager from a terminal so you can see the error msg it dies with
[10:28] <nopcode> felipec: no that cant be
[10:28] <pirx> do i need to install some more package to have all the source, headers and stuff in the system?
[10:29] <nopcode> felipec: i've got much better pthread documentation in "info libc" on other systems
[10:29] <idefix> felipec: well i like debian... it takes some getting used to. but then again i switched to ubuntu for my desktop systems :)
[10:30] <denardo> idefix: Hmm... how do I find the command-line command to start the update manager?
[10:30] <vm> this is just getting downright annoying lol
[10:30] <idefix> denardo: 'sudo update-manager'
[10:31] <H264> phy2: yeah, however for me I am willing to work out a problem if it installs (more or less) without a problem, I feel more comfy if I can move a window around and don't have to touch the command line except for the copy-paste fix on the forum
[10:32] <vm> would anyone know how to fix my login screen? the text is approximately 2px big :(
[10:32] <denardo> idefix: Hmm. "SystemError: E:Archive directory /var/cache/apt/archives/partial is missing." Should I just mkdir that directory?
[10:33] <RPDrake> is it just me or are the Ekiga Softphone quite lousy?
[10:33] <idefixx> denardo: create it its a dir 'sudo mkdir /var/cache/apt/archives/partial'
[10:34] <[swb] > yeah it seems a little flaky to me
[10:34] <denardo> idefixx: Ah, tried it, and updae-manager is working so far!
[10:34] <dimebar> RPDrake: I don't have any probs with ekiga
[10:34] <[swb] > when its working it works well, but I have found that it often crashes, and sometimes tries to register with the wrong password
[10:34] <deadeyez> hi all, having some trouble doing updates
[10:34] <deadeyez> I want to do sudo apt-get update
[10:34] <RPDrake> dimebar: with the default settings?
[10:34] <deadeyez> but I get [waiting for headers] 
[10:35] <dimebar> Only problem I had was when the default stun server didn't work; I had to change it to a different one
[10:35] <deadeyez> when I ping the address:  http://be.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ then I get ==> unknown host
[10:35] <idefixx> denardo: im fairly sure it will get the job done now
[10:35] <denardo> idefixx: Argh. update-manager now complains again that there isn'
[10:36] <dimebar> RPDrake: what is the problem you're having with it?
[10:36] <RPDrake> dimebar: you can use ip addresses too right?
[10:36] <idefixx> denardo: ?
[10:36] <RPDrake> dimebar: the sound is quite noisy
[10:36] <denardo> idefixx: (oops) isn't enough space in the directory, even though I symlinked the directory to a partition where there is plenty of space.
[10:36] <dimebar> RPDrake: Do you use a headset?
[10:36] <RPDrake> dimebar: and delayed
[10:37] <RPDrake> dimebar: I use the build in mic on my laptop
[10:38] <dimebar> RPDrake: Do you use other VOIP software in that way?
[10:38] <idefixx> denardo: which directory did you delete? and how did you create the symlink?
[10:38] <RPDrake> dimebar: with IP instead of Ekiga style address?
[10:39] <ferronica> what is the purpose for eubuntu
[10:39] <H264> dedeyez: under System > Administration > Software Sources, do you have the right boxes check off?
[10:39] <rezzie> hallo
[10:39] <rezzie> hello everyone
[10:39] <RPDrake> yo rezzie
[10:40] <rezzie> have a nice day
[10:40] <crdlb> !edubuntu | ferronica
[10:40] <ubotu> ferronica: Edubuntu is an Ubuntu derivative aimed at schools and educational institutions. For more info, see http://www.edubuntu.org
[10:40] <RPDrake> you too
[10:40] <H264> dedeyez: under the Ubuntu Software tab
[10:40] <RPDrake> haha
[10:40] <denardo> idefixx: "lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 2007-05-10 01:17 /var/cache/apt/archives -> /home/jzitt/apt-archives/"
[10:40] <idefixx> denardo: looks ok
[10:41] <RPDrake> a+w ;)
[10:41] <ltracy> hehehe wrote a little python script to connect to preferred essid's.. wonder if I can make it good and add a frontend to it.
[10:41] <dimebar> RPDrake: I think you're using H232 rather than SIP - SIP in my opinion works far better.  http://wiki.ekiga.org/index.php/What_is_SIP%3F
[10:41] <ltracy> Anybody have an idea of how to find out when a wireless network comes into or out of view?
[10:41] <H264> deadeyes: Sorry, I was calling you dedeyez
[10:42] <H264> gnah
[10:42] <H264> *deadeyez
[10:42] <H264> :P
[10:42] <RPDrake> thnx dimebar I'll check it
[10:42] <idefixx> denardo: im guessing /var is on your root partition? how much free space have you got there? 'df -h'
[10:42] <denardo> idefixx: df says /home has 2021952K free, but update-manager complains that /var/cache/apt/archives needs at least 730K
[10:43] <dimebar> RPDrake: If it doesn't sound any better may want to give Gizmo a go
[10:43] <denardo> idefixx: /var is indeed on the root partition, which has only 348M free.
[10:43] <RPDrake> dimebar: seems like the SIP is just like a DNS
[10:43] <bullgard4> What driver is responsible to write in /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info "last full capacity: 3937 mAh"?
[10:44] <ltracy> Has anybody tried beryl on ubuntu?
[10:44] <RPDrake> no lil a tho'
[10:44] <H264> yep
[10:44] <ltracy> does it work well?
[10:44] <idefixx> denardo: well thats still more than 730k even if it would check for the partition not the dir.
[10:44] <H264> quite if you are using 32 bit... I don't think the ATI 64bit drivers will work with beryl
[10:45] <crdlb> why wouldn't they?
[10:45] <idefixx> denardo: what does 'df -h /var/cache/apt/archives/' and 'df -h /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/' report?
[10:45] <denardo> idefixx: Actually, I think update-manager may have complained about 730M, not 730K. I'll double-check -- getting tired.
[10:45] <anathematic> hey guys i'm installing ubuntu at the moment and the resolution it's running it is outside my monitors capabilities, i've selected on the menu "vga" to 800 by 600 and it works for the first section however after the menu has loaded and some text goes through it dies again, anyone able to through some suggestions to me?
[10:46] <ltracy> cool
[10:46] <H264> because I am running 64bit Ubuntu and I have the ATI drivers installed right, but beryl only crashes
[10:46] <dimebar> RPDrake: similar idea, yes
[10:46] <nopcode> H264: HA HA!</nelson>
[10:46] <denardo> idefixx: for each, it says "/dev/hda5             5.1G  2.9G  2.0G  60% /home"
[10:47] <H264> I can't say about NVIDIA, I would bet they will work...
[10:47] <H264> (for 64bit)
[10:47] <ltracy> hehe, they seem to :)
[10:47] <anathematic> anyone...?
[10:47] <ltracy> 32 bit nvidida
[10:47] <nopcode> H264: yeah
[10:47] <Slart> H264: ask in #ubuntu-effects , they are the bling bling experts
[10:47] <crdlb> H264: are you using Xgl?
[10:47] <nopcode> H264: works nicely on 64 bit. dont buy ati.
[10:47] <idefixx> denardo: that probably means the update manager is to dumb to understand that there is an symlink and just check how much space is left on '/' and dies
[10:47] <ltracy> had trouble on my gentoo box..
[10:48] <idefixx> denardo: kind of odd though...
[10:48] <JohnChimpo> Hey guys.  I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 from the live CD and after it rebooted I booted up to the disk I installed it on and I only get a black screen with "GRUB" in the top left corner and an underscore.  it stops there and does nothing and accepts no keyboard input.
[10:48] <H264> nopcode: Too late... I already bought an Apple iMac Core 2 Duo, it comes with an ATI :(
[10:48] <Josesordo> I format a NTFS partition and create a ext3 partition with gparted and now I cant write in the new partition (ext3) :(
[10:48] <denardo> idefixx: Yeah, that's my guess, too. I'd been hoping that maybe I could shift some stuff off of / temporarily, but what to clear off is, um, unclear :-)
[10:48] <yagami> hi, everyone. how do i use gnome cd/dvd maker to burn iso images? is it possible at all?
[10:48] <nopcode> H264: uhm
[10:48] <nopcode> well ati always sucked on linux
[10:49] <nopcode> thats why i'll never buy ati
[10:49] <crdlb> actually old ati works great on linux
[10:49] <deadeyez> nopcode: works "great" for me:)
[10:49] <bezibaerchen> yagami: right-click the iso and select "burn"
[10:49] <nopcode> deadeyez: i need the latest opengl features, too
[10:49] <nopcode> as in the very latest
[10:49] <H264> nopcode: that's alright, I don't mind too much, I can do without eye candy :)
[10:49] <deadeyez> nopcode: no experience with that:)
[10:49] <idefixx> denardo: the first place you start is usually /var/log .. there are a lot of .gz files (from logrotate) you can just kill or archive them
[10:49] <nopcode> and i doubt ati would deliver
[10:50] <bezibaerchen> yagami: sorry, it is called "open with cd/dvd maker"
[10:50] <denardo> idefixx: Yup, I deleted them.
[10:50] <yagami> bezibaerchen: its a failed cause for me- i made the images as .k3b files- not iso images. so i've got no choice but k3b. problem is, i've had trouble getting k3b to write data to dvds on my device.
[10:51] <yagami>  and at that, does it make any difference what speed i use to write?
[10:51] <idefixx> denardo: all the other stuff is pertty much non movavle .. well it is but i wouldnt do that if you're not a 100% sure you know what you're doing
[10:51] <JohnChimpo> Anyone know how to fix my problem?
[10:51] <denardo> idefixx: Yeah, that's my concern.
[10:52] <yagami> someone recommended that i should write to DVDs at a speed not greater than 6x- and whats the deal with joilet extensions? i've disabled it- will it cause problems?
[10:52] <idefixx> denardo: give me a minute im gonna try something
[10:53] <mjr> yagami, joliet extensions are needed to show long filenames and stuff on Windows; Linux can also use them but will prefer Rock Ridge extensions, if available. Having Joliet shouldn't break anything really.
[10:53] <mjr> yagami, (but lacking it shouldn't break anything either, in the presence of Rock Ridge)
[10:53] <mjr> (and in Linux)
[10:54] <yagami> mjr: so that means if joilet extensions are disabled, rockridge will be used? and no, i'm not going to be using any of the files on windows.
[10:54] <mjr> yagami, even if Joliet were enabled but Rock Ridge available, Linux will use Rock Ridge instead of Joliet (by default, that can be overridden of course)
[10:55] <yagami> its just that i've been unable to get some files to work (especially ebooks/applications) when names are truncated in k3b
[10:55] <mjr> yagami, I don't know if k3b will burn Rock Ridge by default but I assume so since, well, it'd be insane not to :] 
[10:56] <VSpike> mutter mutter... try gnome they said... much more reliable than kde they said...
[10:56] <yagami> alrighty, thanks. mjr  :)
[10:57] <JohnChimpo> Anyone know what to do when you try to boot to the disk you installed Ubuntu on to and all you get is a screen with "GRUB" in the topleft corner and nothing else?
[10:57] <Billy> Howdy...I could use some help, I want t tryout Ubuntu Server, and I want to install onto a Dell Laptop, and I have burned the ISO many times, and when I put it in the laptop or any other computer and the disk doesn't run or install on bootup, it tries but just goes to XP OS
[10:57] <Answer> !timezone
[10:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about timezone - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:57] <Answer> :/
[10:57] <idefixx> denardo: well just gave it a try with synaptic, the other way around symlinked archives to a partition with not enough space on it... didnt complain. so it really seem to be to dumb to understand that
[10:57] <Answer> How to set the timezone from command line?
[10:58] <denardo> idefixx: OK, I'll try with synaptic. Thanks.
[10:59] <phy3> Billy, you may have to make a setting in the BIOS to try to boot from CD before trying to boot from Hard Disk
[10:59] <dooglus> Answer: maybe edit /etc/timezone?  mine says "Europe/Prague
[10:59] <Billy> phy: yup done that
[10:59] <Answer> dooglus: ok but what is America/ central time
[10:59] <vm> OMG someone please help
[10:59] <Billy> phy3: yup done that
[10:59] <Answer> !ask | vm
[10:59] <ubotu> vm: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:00] <vm> i changed my logon screen format to plain, and now when i try and boot up it just goes all black with a loading mouse and does nothing
[11:00] <vm> anyway to revert it (i am on live cd atm)
[11:00] <JohnChimpo> Nobody knows anything about my question?
[11:00] <idefixx> denardo: if synaptic doesnt work use aptitude. that should work
[11:00] <Answer> vm:  if you are on livecd just reboot it should go back to normal
[11:00] <Answer> JohnChimpo: can't you hit f1 or something to go to setup
[11:01] <vm> nono, its my actual install, i am on the livecd cause thats all i can do to get into computer
[11:01] <phy3> Ask again, JohnChimpo, looks like ti has been a while
[11:01] <vm> cause it doesnt load login screen
[11:01] <VSpike> getting some very wierd effects on widgets in gnome, with the default theme.  Scrollbars not drawing properly, "tick" icon in menu lookign like 3 horizontal lines until you hover when it becomes a tick, the brush icon in the search box in evoltion becoming something random.. any ideas?
[11:01] <JohnChimpo> No I tried all the keyboard keys they do nothing.
[11:01] <VSpike> Changed theme and that seems to have helped somewhat
[11:01] <Billy> do the server installs install differently from the desktop ISO'd?
[11:01] <Answer> JohnChimpo: before it freezes on that screen can you go into safemode or something
[11:02] <phy3> Billy, yes, no GUI on server install, only command line
[11:02] <vm> i need to get this working again, its got my schoolwork on it :@:@
[11:02] <JohnChimpo> I installed Ubuntu 7.04 on one of my hard disks and when I boot to the disk itself I get a screen that says GRUB and it freezes.
[11:02] <Billy> Thanks!
[11:02] <Cnl_Delta> hi, how can i set up the CD-ROM drive so i don't have to sudo to unmount or eject CDs
[11:02] <Answer> vm: where did you change it to plain
[11:02] <RPDrake> VSpike: using GTK?
[11:02] <phy3> GUI can be added, are you sure you need server?
[11:02] <JohnChimpo> Answer: No I don't get anything at all.  Anyone know if there's a tool I can use to fix it?
[11:03] <Answer> JohnChimpo: use a livecd and fix your grub
[11:03] <denardo> idefixx: Hmm, not seeing an option in either for a distro upgrade.
[11:03] <Billy> i want to play with server cause I am a web-developer and would like to know more about ubuntu server
[11:03] <vm> system administration>login window
[11:05] <phy3> Server installs "minimal" server package, no gui, command line only. GUI can be added by apt-get install ubuntu-desktop       about 400 meg download
[11:05] <Billy> ok! Thanks! i'll try that then
[11:06] <phy3> You could also start from desktop and add the server apps you want
[11:06] <Answer> vm: you can enable auto login by editing /etc/gdm/gdm.conf.   set  "AutomaticLoginEnable=true"    and "AutomaticLogin=yourusername".  this should bypass that screen and allow you to set it back
[11:06] <vm> answer, okay i shall try
[11:06] <multik> hi guys. What would I need to be able to work with HP scanner on my Ubuntu 7.04?
[11:06] <Answer> !server | Billy
[11:06] <ubotu> Billy: Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[11:06] <tondar> will my hp scanjet 4200C work with ubuntu?
[11:07] <phoenix_> hey
[11:07] <VSpike> RPDrake: I assume so... ?
[11:07] <Answer> !hardware | tondar
[11:07] <ubotu> tondar: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[11:07] <phoenix_> whats the cmd unzip *.tar.bz2 ?
[11:07] <ROBOd> hello guys
[11:07] <tondar> thank you
[11:07] <VSpike> It gets worse.. firefox won't load any pages and open office hangs on opening

[11:07] <Answer> phoenix_: tar -xjvf
[11:07] <ROBOd> how do i configure ubuntu to automatically download and install updates for certain packages?
[11:08] <VSpike> I know I'll get flamed for this in a linux room, but maybe I'll try rebooting
[11:08] <Answer> VSpike: try ctrl+alt+delete to restart x before rebooting
[11:08] <RPDrake> VSpike: maybe just restart X
[11:08] <VSpike> Answer: I've logged out and in again - presumably that has the same effect?
[11:08] <Ezeu> REGISTER abc
[11:08] <crdlb> ctrl+alt+bksp you mean?
[11:08] <Answer> VSpike: oh i meant ctrl+Alt+backspace to restartx
[11:08] <phy3> control alt backspace   or  delete ?
[11:08] <phy3> ya
[11:09] <idefixx> denardo: you'll have to update your /etc/apt/sources.list manually.
[11:09] <RPDrake> VSpike: Ctrl-Alt-Backspace
[11:09] <vm> its read only, how can i fix it answer

[11:11] <Answer> phoenix_: you need htis file:  gzip: /home/phoenix/ps3toolchain/binutils-2.17.50-20070112.tar.gz: No such file or directory
[11:11] <RPDrake> vm: the #1 editor of choice
[11:11] <deadeyez> RPDrake: indeed, but not that easy to learn
[11:11] <mrgigabyte> I like nano cause its a lil more noob friendly
[11:12] <RPDrake> deadeyez: :he got me started quite quickly
[11:12] <phy3> Takes a bit of skill, can't VI by dead reckoning....

[11:15] <deadeyez> vm: if you use the live cd, you have to be sure you can mount it and that it is not mounted read only
[11:16] <RPDrake> vm evt. sudo /etc/init/gdm stop
[11:16] <deadeyez> phy3: I already told him that:s
[11:16] <lethu> don't you think he should better just use nano as he is new to linux, a "sudo nano /etc/gdm/gdm.conf" should do the job
[11:17] <phy3> Ok
[11:17] <Pie-rate> cvslockd is using 100% CPU time. can i just kill it?
[11:17] <lethu> then ctrl + s to save and ctrl + x to exit

[11:17] <nicnicnic> i need assistance trying to get python to compile on my machine
[11:18] <Answer> !python | nicnicnic
[11:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about python - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:18] <nicnicnic> does anyone know if i can APT-GET it or do i have to compile from source
[11:18] <Nanu> Guys I wanna format a partition,,, how?
[11:18] <Pie-rate> is it a bad idea to kill cvslockd?
[11:18] <Gerro> nicnicnic: apt-get python
[11:19] <tehsu> I installed a new hard disk in my laptop and fdisk cant find the disk, but windows allows to format it, is there anything I need to do to enable it for format?
[11:19] <nicnicnic> says invalid operation
[11:19] <idefixx> Nanu: open console, type 'mkfs.' and press tab twice
[11:19] <RPDrake> nicnicnic: maybe it's installed already?
[11:19] <nicnicnic> nah
[11:19] <nicnicnic> then i could compile Scons
[11:19] <tehsu> anyone?
[11:19] <nicnicnic> haha
[11:20] <Gnea> tehsu: what laptop and what hard disk?
[11:20] <RPDrake> nicnicnic: did you try typing python in a term.?

[11:20] <nicnicnic> yes RPDDrake
[11:21] <nicnicnic> i tryed compiling from source
[11:21] <nicnicnic> but it says my GCC cant pull it off
[11:21] <Gnea> tehsu: what's the model # of the toshiba?
[11:21] <SoftIce> hi, there wouldn't be any complications to use a debian kernel on ubuntu, download the .deb and install it, why I ask is that ubuntu doesn't have vserver kernels
[11:21] <nicnicnic> hold on ill get an exact error
[11:21] <tehsu> MK1234GSX
[11:21] <RPDrake> nicnicnic: did you try apt-get install python-dev ?
[11:22] <nicnicnic> i try and run the config script and it says my C compiler cannot create executables?
[11:22] <idefixx> Nanu: do you see all the different commands? they are used to create a filesystem (format). chose one and use it on the partition you want to 'format'
[11:22] <nicnicnic> no
[11:22] <PrimoTurbo> How do I go about removing a installed game like Quake4?
[11:22] <Gnea> tehsu: does dmesg pick it up?
[11:22] <PrimoTurbo> do I just remove all the directories it's accosiated with?
[11:22] <tehsu> havnt checked
[11:22] <idefixx> Nanu: dont forget sudo .. you have to do that as root
[11:22] <PrimoTurbo> or is there a uninstall command?
[11:22] <Gnea> PrimoTurbo: apt-get remove <packagename>
[11:22] <PrimoTurbo> not a package
[11:22] <nicnicnic> rad thanks RPDrake
[11:22] <tehsu> it picks up a scsi device
[11:22] <PrimoTurbo> it was a .sh file
[11:22] <nicnicnic> what is the Apt-get function anyways?
[11:23] <nicnicnic> im a noob to linux
[11:23] <RPDrake> nicnicnic: it worked?
[11:23] <Gnea> oh, that's bad then
[11:23] <nicnicnic> yea its doing it now
[11:23] <tehsu> but its an ide drive
[11:23] <nicnicnic> how can i get a list of all the application/packages apt-get can do?
[11:23] <RPDrake> nicnicnic: apt is the debian package manager
[11:23] <Gnea> PrimoTurbo: you'd have to track the dirs/files down and remove them by hand, unless the .sh has an uninstall function built-in
[11:23] <Nanu> idefixx: ok I typed mkfs.vfat .. then?
[11:23] <ohir> nicnicnic 'linux update'
[11:23] <idefixx> Nanu: which is the partion you want to format?
[11:24] <tehsu> Gnea: [    4.608000]  SCSI device sda: 234441648 512-byte hdwr sectors (120034 MB)
[11:24] <RPDrake> nicnicnic: apt-cache search "pattern"

[11:24] <Gnea> RPDrake: tzconfig ?
[11:25] <Gnea> RPDrake: timezone != time
[11:25] <tehsu> MK1234GAX not GSX
[11:25] <Answer> Gnea: tzconfig looks right.  what files does it edit tho
[11:25] <RPDrake> %z     +hhmm numeric timezone (e.g., -0400)
[11:25] <the_sultan> okay need help ubuntu edgy just keeps randomly rebooting
[11:25] <idefixx> Answer: date.. not sure though :)
[11:25] <Gnea> Answer: not entirely sure. try man tzconfig
[11:25] <RPDrake> Gnea: date can set that too heh
[11:26] <drif_> nicnicnic: first 'apt-get update' to get the latest package info then 'apt-cache pkgnames'
[11:26] <Answer> RPDrake: how do you set the timzeon withe date command??
[11:26] <Gnea> RPDrake: not permanently for the system.
[11:26] <PrimoTurbo> whats the command to remove a directory with files in it?
[11:26] <SoftIce> who would I be able to speak to, to get an answer on when vserver will be supported in ubuntu ?
[11:26] <Answer> PrimoTurbo: rm -rf
[11:26] <drif_> PrimoTurbo: rm -rf
[11:26] <tehsu> maybe i shoudl install windows
[11:26] <drif_> hehe
[11:26] <nicnicnic> i hate how you have to type3 sudo
[11:26] <iMilad> I've installed Pidgin using a .deb package and it works properly. But i need Pidgin development files that are not included in the main package. They seem to be needed for compiling other plugins for Pidgin. Does anybody know how i can get them?
[11:26] <nicnicnic> but i guess it adds to security
[11:27] <idefixx> Nanu: well, ok. do you know if its /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdd2 or whatever?
[11:27] <drif_> nicnicnic: I've bypassed that one :D
[11:27] <Gnea> nicnicnic: you'd hate it more if someone you didn't know was hacking away at your system ;)
[11:27] <carbanm> anyone wanna help my beryl problem?
[11:27] <tehsu> Gnea: any ideas?
[11:27] <Nanu> idefixx: i dont know

[11:27] <nicnicnic> i kno the feeling
[11:27] <the_sultan> any help anyone
[11:28] <ferronica> Eubuntu is Feasible for Play School children???
[11:28] <dooglus> Answer: which city are you in or close to?
[11:28] <Gnea> tehsu: it seems rather... wrong, that it's detecting it as a scsi device and not the ide that it is
[11:28] <nicnicnic> haha how can i cache these package names to a text file?
[11:28] <crimsun> SoftIce: what in particular?
[11:28] <drif_> nicnicnic: add '> filename' in the end
[11:28] <alexzz> ubuntu configuation for dual monitor
[11:28] <RPDrake> ok. maybe tzconfig is necessary lol
[11:28] <SoftIce> crimsun: well I need a supported vserver kernel
[11:28] <Gnea> tehsu: anyway, see if you can fdisk -l /dev/sda
[11:28] <tehsu> it sees it like this  ATA-6: TOSHIBA MK1234GAX, AC001A, max UDMA/100
[11:28] <nicnicnic> where will that dump the file?
[11:28] <SoftIce> crimsun: debian has kernel-vserver in all their releases
[11:28] <drif_> nicnicnic: on your current directory
[11:29] <tehsu> cannot open sda
[11:29] <idefixx> Nanu: is it mounted at the moment? in any case why do you want to format it anyway?
[11:29] <Gnea> tehsu: right, there's a SCSI kernel module that's loaded it
[11:29] <SoftIce> crimsun: now i'm stuck with a dapper box and no supported kernel, there is this edgy kernel, linux-vserver-image-2.6.17-11-vserver-generic, but it has not been patched
[11:29] <tehsu> i did it to hda and it didnt give me a error
[11:29] <carbanm> ive got feisty, an ATI Radeon X1300 and cant get beryl to work, closest ive come is to have it close gnome(?) and leave me in a shitty situation
[11:29] <SoftIce> crimsun: so this kernel would be vulnerable to the latest exploits
[11:29] <tehsu> this is just weird
[11:29] <Gnea> tehsu: can you paste the entire output of dmesg to a pastebin please?
[11:29] <Gnea> !pastebin
[11:29] <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)
[11:29] <tehsu> yeah

[11:30] <carbanm> anyone?
[11:31] <PrimoTurbo> Is there a good linux command line guide somewhere
[11:31] <Gerro> carbanm: you got the ATI drivers going?
[11:31] <Nanu> idefixx: it is already mounted,, I couldn't write to it,,, I thought it was because it is NTFS .. I wanted to make it FAT32 so I can write to it
[11:31] <carbanm> fglrx
[11:31] <tehsu> Gnea: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20142/

[11:31] <PrimoTurbo> gee thanks
[11:31] <Gerro> PrimoTurbo: there is also the man command to print the manual
[11:32] <idefixx> Nanu: allright then. type 'df -h' in a console and find your drive. if you cant find it paste the output to a pastbin pls.
[11:32] <PrimoTurbo> I need a good one no very technical, for new users
[11:32] <Gerro> PrimoTurbo: for example man ls | less then use spacebar to scroll through and q to quit reading
[11:32] <crimsun> SoftIce: are you referring to linux-vserver.org or linuxvirtualserver.org ?
[11:32] <idefixx> !pastebin | nanu
[11:32] <nicnicnic> ok new issue

[11:32] <nicnicnic> howcome i cant see it in the file manager?
[11:32] <nicnicnic> but i can see it in terminal
[11:32] <Gerro> PrimoTurbo: yeah the linux.org documentation is very easy reading
[11:33] <pookey> Is there documentation on ubuntu's exim setup anywhere?
[11:33] <PrimoTurbo> is there anyway to make xchat minimize into taskbar icon on close like azuerues?

[11:34] <mattfletcher> does anyone know of a media player which would be good for playing sfx during a play? on windows, winamp can be set to stop after each track and await a manual advance
[11:34] <Tobsan> it's set to utf-8, and i want it to be iso-8859-1
[11:34] <Nanu> idefixx dev/hdb1
[11:34] <crimsun> SoftIce: they don't seem to provide a public git tree
[11:34] <Civic> Hello everybody
[11:34] <idefixx> Nanu: is there data on that drive?
[11:34] <PrimoTurbo> Gerro: linux.org is a large site what is the url to the specific non-technical command line guide?
[11:34] <carbanm> mattfletcher: try wine and winamp heh
[11:34] <mattfletcher> carbanm: or not
[11:34] <Civic> How to play the music file in linux ubuntu?
[11:34] <Nanu> yeah
[11:35] <idefixx> Nanu: cauz if you creat a new filesystem it will all be deleted. you know that, right?
[11:35] <Nanu> I know idefixx
[11:35] <carbanm> mattfletcher: technically couldnt you just use any media player and do it as diff playlists?
[11:35] <Gnea> tehsu: well according to dmesg, there's 1 partition on the hard drive. are you trying to do this as root or the standard ubuntu user?
[11:35] <crimsun> SoftIce: if you write up a spec to include it in 7.10, I'll try to allocate some resources to review it.
[11:35] <carbanm> like all the songs you want to play before a pause to a playlist
[11:35] <tehsu> standard
[11:35] <Nanu> but this is the line sorry
[11:35] <Nanu> idefixx /dev/sda1              38G   27G   11G  73% /media/New Volume
[11:35] <Gnea> ah, that's the problem. you need to be root.
[11:36] <Gnea> sudo su
[11:36] <mattfletcher> carbanm: i want to have every track loaded into a playlist in order, then just click each
[11:36] <crimsun> SoftIce: you'll want to look at how we handle diffs to our ubuntu-gutsy git tree  (see http://hera.kernel.org/git/)
[11:36] <idefixx> Nanu: jsut wanted to ask you to repost :)=
[11:36] <mattfletcher> i don't want to be hunting for playlists
[11:36] <tehsu> well that showed it
[11:36] <Gnea> no root, no go. thank you, come again.
[11:36] <tehsu> but i dont understand why it shows it
[11:36] <gejr> Has anyone used kPlaylist? do you know how it's sharing function works? I haven't been able to figure it out.
[11:36] <tehsu> as sda
[11:36] <SoftIce> crimsun: so what the issue is right now, is nobody has taken charge of support to linux-vserver (kernel) ?
[11:36] <Nanu> I knew that idefixx
[11:36] <ferronica> which one is Live CD "Desktop CD for PC (Intel x86) computers (contents of live filesystem)" or "Desktop CD for PC (Intel x86) computers (BitTorrent download)"
[11:36] <idefixx> Nanu: ok.. just to be sure do 'ls -l /media/New Volume' look at the output is that really your usb drive?
[11:36] <crimsun> SoftIce: essentially.
[11:36] <carbanm> mattfletcher: banshee can do it.
[11:36] <tehsu> thanks man,
[11:37] <Civic> Anybody: Why do Rhytmbox Music Player can not play any sound file? What can be the problem?
[11:37] <Gnea> no problem, have fun
[11:37] <SoftIce> crimsun: isn't this quite a across board solution ?
[11:37] <mattfletcher> carbanm: thanks, i'll try it
[11:37] <gejr> Civic: you need the codecs for mp3 etc
[11:37] <Civic> gejr: how to get them?
[11:37] <SoftIce> and to ease of installation not to have to compile source kernels the entire time?
[11:37] <Tobsan> does anyone know how i change my default encoding?
[11:37] <HOT> Civic: you may need to download a codec pack, i beleive its called win32codec
[11:37] <Poltergeist> :))
[11:37] <Nanu> idefixx i'm sure i know it
[11:37] <HOT> ie "apt-get install win32codec"
[11:37] <Civic> HOT thanks
[11:37] <HOT> np
[11:37] <Poltergeist> nope
[11:37] <crimsun> SoftIce: I'm not sure why you're asking me that.  You'll want to address those ideas in your spec.
[11:38] <VSpike> this just gets better... open office won't start, firefox won't load any pages... when I pressed the logout button it didn't work, until I loaded evolution, at which point it loaded 5 instances for every time I pressed the button.  And the icons in it are missing.  And the system has forgotten my keyboard layout.
[11:38] <idefixx> Nanu: 'sudo umount /dev/sda1'
[11:38] <crimsun> SoftIce: (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/)
[11:38] <carbanm> mattfletcher: to an extent. i just played with it a bit, and if you press shift+space during a song, it sets it to stop after the song, but its a temoporary setting
[11:38] <gejr> Civic: win32codecs won't give you the ability to play mp3
[11:38] <ferronica> which one is Live CD "Desktop CD for PC (Intel x86) computers (contents of live filesystem)" or "Desktop CD for PC (Intel x86) computers (BitTorrent download)"
[11:38] <Poltergeist> for mp3 you only need libxine in kde i believe
[11:38] <Poltergeist> :))
[11:38] <idefixx> Nanu: 'sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1'
[11:38] <Poltergeist> and some other things in gnome
[11:38] <SoftIce> crimsun: thanks
[11:38] <Poltergeist> win32codecs is for movies
[11:38] <carbanm> so if pushing shift space after pressing space to play it doesnt piss you off, it'll do
[11:38] <VSpike> When I try to load the keyboard control panel app, it opens then exits
[11:38] <Nanu> idefixx that's great thanks
[11:38] <VSpike> Something is seriously screwy here
[11:38] <HOT> im presuming he doesnt have mp3's and has wmv's instrad
[11:39] <idefixx> Nanu: dont forget to rmount it ;)
[11:39] <Civic> HOT: it is a problem
[11:39] <Civic> it says:
[11:39] <idefixx> Nanu: 'sudo mount -tvfat /dev/sda1 /media/New Volume'
[11:39] <Civic> E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
[11:39] <Civic> E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
[11:39] <carbanm> Anyone wanna help me with my beryl/ati problem?
[11:39] <Poltergeist> well, he should install all the bloody codesc, he will need them
[11:39] <gejr> Civic: close synaptic package manager and try again
[11:39] <drif_> civic: you need to be root.. add sudo in the beginning of line

[11:41] <pikake069> quick question.... Is it possible to do a GUI remote desktop between 2 Ubuntu 6.06 LTS server editions
[11:42] <Civic> it says the same

[11:42] <Poltergeist> !multimedia
[11:42] <VSpike> OK, it running it from konsole (which still loads), I get: Segmentation fault (core dumped)
[11:42] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically.

[11:42] <HOT> Civic: its "w32codecs"
[11:42] <ajmorris_> in mozilla thunderbird, how do you make it display emails in html not plain text, because somehow it was changed, and i don't know how to change it back
[11:42] <Poltergeist> a, yeah
[11:42] <gejr> ye
[11:42] <Poltergeist> :)
[11:42] <gejr> that's it
[11:42] <Poltergeist> w32codecs
[11:42] <gejr> w32codecs
[11:42] <Civic> HOT: I will try again :)
[11:43] <Nanu> idefixx: that
[11:43] <HOT> *nod*
[11:43] <Poltergeist> install dvdcss if you are there
[11:43] <drif_> Poltergeist: but does it exist on default repositories?
[11:43] <ferronica> can any one please tell me which one is LIVE CD?
[11:43] <Poltergeist> i don't know
[11:43] <Poltergeist> i use suse
[11:43] <idefixx> Nanu: ?
[11:43] <Nanu> idefixx that it good but I don't think that i will memorize this commands
[11:43] <gejr> ferronica: the Desktop cd?
[11:43] <Poltergeist> a, it;s libdvdcss for playing dvd-s
[11:44] <Civic> well nothing good. :(
[11:44] <dooglus> ferronica: the install cd is the live one; the alternate cd isn't
[11:44] <Civic> Package w32codecs is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[11:44] <Civic> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[11:44] <Civic> is only available from another source
[11:44] <Civic> E: Package w32codecs has no installation candidate
[11:44] <ferronica> gejr: from here --->http://us.releases.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/feisty/
[11:44] <dooglus> !info w32codecs
[11:44] <ubotu> w32codecs: Win32 codec binaries. In component extras, is optional. Version 20061022-1~seveas1 (feisty-seveas), package size 13920 kB, installed size 33580 kB (Only available for i386)
[11:44] <HOT> civic you need to enable binaries
[11:44] <HOT> erm i mean universal repositories
[11:44] <Civic> and how to do that?
[11:44] <dooglus> HOT: are you sure?
[11:45] <HOT> w32codecs are in universe, im not sure, but i beleive so
[11:45] <idefixx> Nanu: that is true.. but since its an usb device it should handle teh mounting automaticly once you plug it in.
[11:45] <gejr> Civic: you can do it in Synaptic Package manager
[11:45] <dooglus> HOT: ubotu disagrees with you.  he thinks they're in feisty-seveas
[11:45] <ferronica> dooglus: in eubuntu there is no alternate CD
[11:45] <gejr> Civic: on the menu "Settings -> Repositories"
[11:45] <usr_rob> what are the advantage of using ubuntu 7.04 server edition than debian etch ? (i am very familiar with debian on the server, i hav not tested ubuntu thou)
[11:45] <gejr> Civic: just hook all the repositories there and hit apply
[11:45] <fnf> is there anyone familiar with fusesmb ?. I've tried mounting it but it didn't seem to work. The documentation is lacking.
[11:45] <HOT> ok, im probly wrong
[11:45] <usr_rob> *have
[11:45] <Civic> I will try
[11:46] <gejr> ferronica: the first one should be a live cd.
[11:46] <Seveas> dooglus, and you know ubotu is always right :)
[11:46] <gejr> ferronica: "PC (Intel x86) Desktop CD"
[11:46] <Nanu> Yeah I know idefixx .. but i mean in future i may need to do this again .. i won't remember those commands .. how sad
[11:46] <fnf> !fusesmb
[11:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fusesmb - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:46] <ferronica> dooglus: i wanna use torrent not direct download
[11:46] <fnf> Anyone ?
[11:46] <idefixx> usr_rob: well i guess ubuntu is a lot faster in distribuitin cycles (6 month static)
[11:47] <gejr> ferronica: then use this one: http://us.releases.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/feisty/edubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.iso.torrent
[11:47] <ferronica> gejr: what is this "15-Apr-2007 07:59   30K  Desktop CD for PC (Intel x86) computers (contents of live filesystem)"
[11:47] <tarnap_> i need a benchmark software... glxgears ain't really great =)
[11:47] <ferronica> gejr: what this mean "(contents of live filesystem)"
[11:47] <gejr> ferronica: probably a list of what software is included on the livecd
[11:47] <idefixx> usr_rob: even though i myself prefer debian on my server.. i can allways get some unstable stuff and think stability > features.
[11:47] <ferronica> gejr: okay
[11:48] <dooglus> Seveas: ubotu told me a link yesterday which turned out to be a 404 error
[11:48] <Seveas> dooglus, which ?
[11:48] <dooglus> Seveas: I don't remember now, sorry.
[11:48] <Seveas> @lart dooglus
[11:48] <idefixx> Nanu: just get used to linux a bit... and i'll come naturaly to u ;)
[11:49] <usr_rob> idefixx, okey, thx. i will look up what version of mysqld, php ubuntu got, and se if i need the newer packages from it rather then the ones that are in debian
[11:49] <usr_rob> *see
[11:49] <Nanu> idefixx: I see
[11:49] <gejr> it took me about 6 months to get as comfortable with linux as i used to be with winxp...now i'll never go back :)
[11:50] <idefixx> usr_rob: right now feisty and etch are pretty close together but the next ubuntu version is due in about 5 month... debian will probably be more than a year
[11:50] <Poltergeist> :))
[11:50] <carbanm> can anyone help me with a beryl problem?
[11:50] <Poltergeist> debian, more like 3 years or so
[11:50] <idefixx> usr_rob: again.. debian got unstable.. so no big deal there.
[11:50] <roconnor> in /etc/acpi/resume.d/ there is file called 50-time.sh that sets the clock from the hardware clock, but there is no corresponding command in suspend.d/
[11:50] <gejr> so who has tried kPlaylist?
[11:51] <roconnor> I propose that suspend.d/ get a file 50-time.sh that sets the hardware clock from the system clock
[11:51] <carbanm> Or can anyone help me with a fan sensor problem?
[11:51] <roconnor> How would I file such a request?
[11:51] <dooglus> Seveas: roconnor on launchpad.net
[11:51] <gejr> carbanm: dont ask to ask...just ask.
[11:51] <mrcreativity> i need to customize the buttons of my touchpad...
[11:51] <dooglus> s/Seveas: //
[11:51] <usr_rob> idefixx, heh, i don't want to run debian unstable on the server
[11:51] <mrcreativity> can someone help me/
[11:51] <Civic> OK I have found codecs in Synaptic PAckage MAnager. Which one do I need? I cant find w32 in there
[11:52] <idefixx> usr_rob: well they got testing as well ;)
[11:52] <Poltergeist> !multimedia
[11:52] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically.

[11:52] <gejr> mrcreativity: you need to modify your xorg.conf. Google for "synaptic touchpad ubuntu" and see what comes to you.
[11:52] <Poltergeist> civic, follow the instructions from the site
[11:52] <mrcreativity> gejr: thank you
[11:52] <roconnor> dooglus: ah, okay
[11:52] <Civic> firs or the second one?
[11:52] <usr_rob> idefixx, yeah, yeah ;)
[11:52] <Poltergeist> d,oh
[11:52] <Poltergeist> try both
[11:53] <idefixx> usr_rob: im not talking about updateing the whole system though just pick a few packages from testing and/or unstable to fit your version needs
[11:53] <carbanm> okay, ive got an ATI radeon x1300, and want more than anything to get beryl to run, closest ive come is to get it to remove everything useful in ubuntu and then say "it wont work"
[11:53] <Civic> OK :)
[11:53] <Poltergeist> can't open two tabs?
[11:53] <carbanm> that is problem one.
[11:53] <Poltergeist> :)
[11:53] <dooglus> roconnor: don't hold your breath though.  :)
[11:53] <usr_rob> idefixx, that is okey, but a security risk thou, but indeed it will work ..
[11:53] <phy3> carbann, you can have my beryl, I don't need it
[11:53] <idefixx> usr_rob: im no authority on ubuntu server (since i dont use them) but i guess they are in any case not as stable as debian - i mean how can they? they take stuff from testing/unstable themselfes
[11:54] <d2812> Civic: you still need help?
[11:54] <roconnor> dooglus: Oh, that's sad to hear.  The fix, I think, is really easy.
[11:54] <carbanm> problem two is that ive got a tyan thunder k7, and it has no form of fan control in the bios, and in windows i used "speedfan" to make it not sound as if a plane is taking off in my bedroom, and now there is nothing in /acpi/fan/
[11:54] <anathematic> guys installing ubuntu atm, under prepare diskspace if i select whatever harddrive i can select which partition i want to use on the harddrive later on right?
[11:54] <Poltergeist> civic, there is always the forum
[11:54] <anathematic> yes / no?
[11:54] <anathematic> ^^
[11:54] <Poltergeist> it's a good one, i use it even for suse, ubuntuforums.org
[11:54] <dooglus> roconnor: trivial bugs can sit in the tracker for years without getting any attention.  I think the ubuntu developers must be overloaded.
[11:54] <phy3> anathematic, you can create partitions manually, and assign as you like, use or not
[11:54] <Civic> I still can not play mp3 files
[11:54] <ajmorris_> anyone know the answer to my thunderbird problem?
[11:55] <usr_rob> idefixx, yeah, that's right but i asumed they have tested the unstable/testing packages more than the unstable/testing packages in debian
[11:55] <anathematic> phy3: so i'm not going to lose any of my data on the other partitions on the harddrive i select am i?
[11:55] <d2812> Civic: type "wget -q http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/medibuntu-key.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -" - thats step 1
[11:55] <anathematic> that is my main concern
[11:55] <usr_rob> *assumed
[11:55] <idefixx> usr_rob: well i guess so :) who knows
[11:55] <carbanm> Civic: get easyUbuntu
[11:55] <Free_Thinker> hi. can anyone tell me why after enabling 3d support the sleep option disappeared along with reboot and shutdown (but those i can do from console)?
[11:55] <d2812> Civic: then "sudo wget http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/sources.list.d/feisty.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list" thats step 2
[11:55] <phy3> I only install linux to its own separate drive, not on a windows disk.
[11:55] <dooglus> usr_rob: in my experience 'sid' is more stable than ubuntu's 'stable' releases
[11:56] <usr_rob> idefixx, that's why i wrote the first question ;)
[11:56] <kalin> does anyone know if there is a way to regenerate /etc/fstab to default?
[11:56] <d2812> Civic: then "sudo apt-get update"
[11:56] <mrcreativity> Free_Thinker: the same thing happened to me once, but it didnt happen after u enabled 3d
[11:56] <roconnor> dooglus: I guess my bug isn't that urgent. ... unless your hardware clock is really bad like mine ;)
[11:56] <phy3> Maybe I misunderstood your question, as I did not rearrange windows
[11:56] <usr_rob> dooglus, that's ironic
[11:56] <carbanm> any one on the beryl/fan problem?
[11:56] <Civic> d2812: OK. I will try :)
[11:56] <mrcreativity> Free_Thinker: i changed an option in th elogin manager and got them back
[11:56] <dooglus> usr_rob: it may also not be true, but that's the impression I get, having run both for a long time
[11:56] <anathematic> ph3: i want to over ride the windows partition i have set aside for OS's and leave my other partitions on the harddrive intact
[11:56] <anathematic> that's fine right?
[11:57] <dooglus> usr_rob: maybe it's just that I have lower expectations from sid
[11:57] <usr_rob> idefixx, thx for your thoughts about it
[11:57] <idefixx> usr_rob: not much more left for me to say then... thats pretty much all i know ;)
[11:57] <idefixx> usr_rob: np
[11:57] <usr_rob> dooglus, maybe, thx, i'll look more into it on google ..
[11:57] <HOT> Civic: you could try automatix 2 or easybuntu
[11:57] <SoftIce> hello, ho would I remove all packages from everything other than ubuntu main ?
[11:57] <dooglus> usr_rob: it's hard to find an unbiased opinion of course.
[11:57] <d2812> Civic: thats all from http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/. Its adds the repo's and their gpg key. That should add it to synaptic
[11:57] <HOT> Civic: you do have a sound device right?
[11:58] <phy3> I believe you can do that in manual partioning
[11:58] <Free_Thinker> mrcreativity: what option can u tell me?
[11:58] <SoftIce> force removal of all universe, etc ?
[11:59] <VSpike> Very strange ... I've logged back into KDE, and all the programs that would not work under gnome (gnome-terminal, open office, firefox) now work fine.  Also, my keyboard works again.
[11:59] <mrcreativity> Free_Thinker: system >login window>local>enable show action bar under menu bar
[11:59] <vm> loll i gave up
[11:59] <vm> and reinstalled linux
[11:59] <VSpike> as a first evaluation of gnome, that sucked :)

[12:01] <Frogzoo> are there any huge catastophe showstoppers upgrading from edgy to feisty - or does the process work in like 99% of instances?
[12:01] <dooglus> SoftIce: there's a command that will list all non-main packages - something like 'apt-query' but I forget exactly what it's called
[12:01] <Poltergeist> :))
[12:01] <Civic> OK everyone. Thanks for the help. Bye
[12:01] <carbanm> can anyone here help me get beryl running? i have the fglrx from the repos, and an ati radeon

[12:01] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[12:12] <vm> can anyone help me, on my login screen the text is like 2px big
[12:12] <phy2> and after login?
[12:13] <vm> i set it to normal reso
[12:13] <vm> and its all good
[12:13] <vm> but the login screen still stuffed
[12:13] <HOT> hey just a quicky, if i change the path output to PATH=$PATH:/home/someone/bin
[12:13] <HOT>  should i not then be able to execute commands in that directory?
[12:13] <dooglus> SoftIce: did you get an answer about removing non-main packages yet?
[12:14] <HOT> sorry ignore that, i need to export
[12:14] <phy2> Here we go again... I THINK it takes the maximum resolution from xorg.conf for the login screen, so I would try editting xorg.conf, reducing the highest resoutions, and see what happens, keeping a backup of xorg.conf of course, and using   (oh no!)   vi   to edit it
[12:15] <mrcreativity> i downloaded realplayer and i dont know how to install it. can someone help me?
[12:15] <eeos> hi! what happened to libapache2-mod-php4? sudo apt-get install libapache2-mod-php4 returns package not available (since the update to 704)
[12:15] <soundray> HOT: also, consider PATH=/home/someone/bin:$PATH instead of the other way round
[12:16] <vm> phy2, i tried that last time, and like it changed the reso of the login box, but the text was still tiny
[12:16] <HOT> soundray: do i have to export variables every time i restart?
[12:16] <HOT> or do i just add to .bashrc?
[12:16] <mc44> mrcreativity: http://www.mikesplanet.net/2007/04/realplayer-10-for-feisty/
[12:16] <soundray> HOT: add to .bashrc if you want it permanent, or to /etc/environment if you want it systemwide.
[12:16] <dooglus> soundray: adding it to .bashrc won't do anything apart from in your terminal windows
[12:17] <HOT> soundray: thanks, this is better practice than just dumping in /bin right?
[12:17] <mrcreativity> mc44: thanks
[12:17] <dooglus> HOT: .xprofile is a better place to put it
[12:17] <HOT> ah right , i see that
[12:17] <soundray> HOT: definitely. You can also put local programs for system wide use in /usr/local/bin
[12:17] <vm> anyone got compiz working on a ATI radeon x1600 by any chance?
[12:18] <HOT> right
[12:18] <HOT> thanks!
[12:18] <dooglus> vm: almost - I have it working on an ATI *mobility* radeon x1600
[12:18] <dooglus> vm: maybe that's the same thing - I don't know
[12:18] <mrcreativity> how do i install a .bin file?
[12:19] <vm> hrm
[12:19] <mc44> mrcreativity: which bin file?
[12:19] <berent> mc44 : why do u wan tit
[12:19] <mrcreativity> realplayergold.bin
[12:19] <berent> mrcreativity : try with wine
[12:20] <lethu> phy2, ah ah too funny
[12:20] <mc44> mrcreativity: use the deb in that link I gave you
[12:20] <mrcreativity> im downloading it, but i have a really slow connection, itll take ages to download
[12:20] <felipec> mrcreativity: chmod +x file.bin; ./file.bin
[12:20] <berent> mrcreativity : also try ./realplayergold.bin
[12:20] <Dramakus> can some1 help for some reason my cube desktop keeps reseting to 1 desktop
[12:20] <soundray> mrcreativity: if you install the bin, you're bypassing the package system. Bad idea.
[12:21] <vm> lol i dnt remember who linked me to the xgl setup but if you could link again would be appreciated
[12:21] <mrcreativity> soundray: why?
[12:21] <berent> soundray : real player is for playing ..... files . understand he is not doing any development work
[12:22] <dooglus> vm: here's a log of the excellent help I got installing compiz for ATI: http://dooglus.rincevent.net/compiz.txt
[12:22] <nicko1> where could i find vista icons for ubuntu??
[12:22] <soundray> mrcreativity: because it is not going to be updated, and it will potentially conflict with programs installed in the regular way. berent, your point is not relevant.

[12:23] <nads> Does anyone know why I get a connection refused for VNCVIEWER to my Ubuntu box? I'm not behind a router and I've enable the remote desktop option view preferences....
[12:23] <HOT> god dammit what a great OS
[12:23] <nads> enabled
[12:24] <vm> hot: agreed
[12:24] <Frogzoo> are there any huge catastophe showstoppers upgrading from edgy to feisty - or does the process work in like 99% of instances?
[12:24] <vm> if only i could get xgl/compiz workin
[12:24] <soundray> nads: add the screen number to the vncviewer call. Normally :0

[12:24] <Dramakus> can some1 plz help me.  My 4 desktops keep reseting to 1
[12:24] <Dramakus> I
[12:24] <vm> haha ty
[12:25] <Dramakus> I've tried Bevel Manager and it doesn't seem to keep it set
[12:25] <Dramakus> erm Beryl*
[12:25] <Frogzoo> Dramakus: beryl support one desktop only
[12:26] <nads> soundray: I did that. the viewer said "connection initiated" and after a while it stops
[12:26] <Frogzoo> Dramakus: you might like to bump up the number of cube faces, that's about it
[12:26] <chrismhampson> i keep getting fsck errors when I boot ubuntu. sometimes it goes to a console view and asks me to run fsck manually, other times it gets to the login screen and then says something about authority and gdm not starting. any ideas?
[12:26] <baadnwz> i need help to mount a nvraid and to set up 3d acceleration on ati card (x1600)
[12:26] <Dramakus> Frogzoo: Sorry that is what I mean
[12:26] <erUSUL> chrismhampson: hardware error? faulty hard disk?
[12:26] <Dramakus> my cube faces reset to 1
[12:26] <ward_> i miss .so.X (where X = a number) files i need for some program i wanted to install, but i installed all dependencys, what could be the proble? also, what sohuld i read about this to understand why my comp is missing those files while i installed the right software
[12:27] <lethu> Frogzoo, the official forums are filled with posts of people encountering upgrade issues, the most sure way is to back up your home dir, do a fresh install then copy back your dir
[12:27] <ward_> ?
[12:27] <chrismhampson> erUSUL: i do not have this problem with PCLOS or xp so i am convinced it is ubuntu
[12:27] <Frogzoo> lethu: k, same old then thx, *cry*
[12:27] <lethu> Frogzoo, heh yw : )
[12:28] <chrismhampson> erUSUL: sometimes I can get to the desktop and then all the icons appear to have a lock symbol attached
[12:28] <mc44> Frogzoo: I disagree, there have been far less problems than last time
[12:29] <erUSUL> chrismhampson: that's becouse in case of filesystem error or inconsistency linux will mount it read only for safety
[12:29] <mc44> Frogzoo: updgrading should be fine
[12:29] <lethu> mc44, far less isn't 99% sure
[12:29] <erUSUL> chrismhampson: have you manually passed an fsck to the fs? from a livecd?
[12:29] <Frogzoo> mc44: sure, but any problems mean a fresh install in the long run is quicker
[12:29] <chrismhampson> erUSUL: I suspect that it is a shutting down issue or something caused by dual-booting like UTC versus local time....
[12:30] <gordboy> hi. feisty 7.04. xorg radeon X driver. messed up fonts in stellarium. any ideas ?
[12:30] <rdesh> ya :D
[12:30] <chrismhampson> erUSUL: i just run fsck from the console and then press ctrl+D
[12:30] <mc44> Frogzoo: I have seen hardly any problems caused by ugrades rather than just being feisty bugs
[12:30] <rdesh> anyone know a way to check to see how much capacity a CDR has?
[12:30] <Frogzoo> lethu: btw, that's the perfect argument for /home on a separate partition
[12:30] <bullgard4> Can I use Synaptic to get the same result as by doing 'sudo apt-cache search <catchword>'?
[12:30] <chrismhampson> erUSUL: it seems to correct the issues on the next reboot...
[12:30] <mc44> lethu: almost all the bugs are nothing to do with upgrading but just feisty bugs even in a fresh install
[12:30] <ward_> ?
[12:31] <erUSUL> chrismhampson: i do have a weid mb that rtesets the clock o lot but the only thing that happens is a normal fsck without errors or other issues i only have to wait a looong time to boot
[12:31] <ward_> i miss .so.X (where X = a number) files i need for some program i wanted to install, but i installed all dependencys, what could be the proble? also, what sohuld i read about this to understand why my comp is missing those files while i installed the right software
[12:31] <lethu> Frogzoo, yeah that's right I wonder why I still don't do it this way
[12:31] <vm> anyone happen to know how to install xgl and compiz on for ati radeon x1600?
[12:31] <HKJGN_> O.o
[12:31] <chrismhampson> erUSUL: i will try a live cd fsck.....do i just open a terminal and type fsck?
[12:31] <erUSUL> chrismhampson: so i suspect something more is happening to you. do pass a fsck to your fs's from a livecd
[12:32] <Dramakus> Frogzoo: That is what I meant my 4 cube faces turn into 1 for some reason : /
[12:32] <lethu> mc44, you might be right but I have seen many people crying about their failed upgrade
[12:32] <haru> why is vnc over ssh super slow?
[12:32] <Frogzoo> !beryl | Dramakus
[12:32] <ubotu> Dramakus: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:32] <erUSUL> chrismhampson: there is an extra switch or two that can be handy check the manual page 'man fsck.ext3'
[12:32] <lethu> mc44, especially in the official forums
[12:32] <nicko1> In YOUR FACE!! I got the icons!!
[12:33] <HOT> vm , i got it working recently with beryl , but i had to use the 2.0.0 version of beryl, anything else bombs
[12:33] <Gerro> nicko1: icons?
[12:34] <HOT> vm: in essence i enabled the restricted ati driver, then forced install of beryl 2.0.0 , and all the other beryl gubbins, i also had to write a custom GDM entry....trying to remember it all
[12:34] <gordboy> ok. another q. how to get passwordless login in gdm ?
[12:34] <vm> lol hrm
[12:34] <vm> i have to install xgl first tho dnt i?
[12:34] <dooglus> vm: did you check that log I pasted the URL for?

[12:37] <haru> why is vnc over ssh super slow?
[12:37] <dooglus> haru: vino?
[12:37] <erUSUL> haru: encryption overhead??
[12:37] <HOT> haru: try lowering the colour from 24bit to 16bit, it makes a massive difference to speed
[12:37] <Gerro> I installed gnome-keyring by mistake so went to remove it but it wants to remove my entire system, how to fix this problem?
[12:37] <baadnwz> and 2nd how do i set the ati driver corectly for now is using mesa indirect
[12:37] <gordboy> passwordless login in gdm ? i can do it in fedora 5/6, gentoo, debian etch. but not in feisty, for some reason. is it even possible ?
[12:38] <dooglus> gordboy: I did it in ubuntu 5.04 once by editing some pam file, but I forget the details
[12:38] <haru> HOT, erUSUL even if its on a 100Mbps lan?
[12:39] <gordboy> dooglus, thanks
[12:39] <haru> HOT, i lowered it to 64K.. but the output screen looks bad
[12:39] <haru> dooglus, whas vino?
[12:39] <HKJGN_> sigh... anyone have any experience with BF2142, i cant get Cedega to run the patch file, says "could not find BF2142" directory, when its sitting right in it..
[12:39] <lasking> who know how to change gnome icon  not change all of it  i only want change one
[12:40] <dooglus> gordboy: see http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-12777.html - search for 'pam' in there
[12:40] <gordboy> dooglus, nice
[12:40] <dooglus> haru: vino is the VNC server that ubuntu uses by default, and it's dog slow.  vnc4server is much faster
[12:40] <lasking> who can help me
[12:41] <haru> dooglus, i think i am running vnc4server only
[12:41] <dooglus> haru: using compiz or beryl?
[12:41] <andrewm> hey guys, i'm part way through a dist-upgrade. I stupidly chose to use the gui tool in the "updates" screen to upgrade to feisty. Is there anyway i can see how long this is going to take. It's been going for a while
[12:41] <haru> neither
[12:41] <haru> default gnome
[12:41] <andrewm> it doesn't seem to have locked up
[12:44] <andrewm> and i can hear the hd ticking
[12:44] <andrewm> but some estimation of time would be useful
[12:44] <dooglus> haru: I don't know then.  is the CPU maxed out on either the server or client?
[12:44] <haru> nope
[12:44] <Aaroncn> How can I register a nickname?
[12:44] <dooglus> Aaroncn: /msg nickserv register pa$$word
[12:44] <lethu> gordboy, System --> Administration --> Login window --> Security tab --> Enable Automatic login | is this what you are looking for?
[12:44] <lasking> unhelpful
[12:44] <haru> dooglus, on another note.. how do i make sure i am using vnc4server and not the default
[12:44] <haru> windows remote desktop performs fine tho
[12:44] <dooglus> lethu: he wants passwordless login, not auto login
[12:44] <Dimensions> how can do i make ubuntu very light ?
[12:44] <dooglus> haru: check with 'ps -ef | grep -e vnc -e vino' to see which are running
[12:44] <Dimensions> **how do i make ubuntu a light OS ?
[12:44] <andrewm> haru: windows remote desktop is rdp
[12:44] <lethu> dooglus, ah ok sorry : )
[12:44] <andrewm> Dimensions: Light ? memory or CPU ?
[12:44] <zwerkje_> i have a amd X2 4600+ and its look like ubuntu only use 1 core
[12:44] <andrewm> or both
[12:44] <Dimensions> andrewm:  both ...
[12:44] <haru> dooglus, haru      6499     1  0 02:33 ?        00:00:06 /usr/lib/vino/vino-server --oaf-
[12:44] <haru> apparantly vino
[12:44] <gordboy> lethu, no it isn't. but i may have to go there if i can't track this down properly
[12:44] <dooglus> haru: you're trying to share your main desktop remotely?  or a separate desktop?
[12:45] <haru> either will do
[12:45] <lethu> gordboy, okidoki goodluck
[12:45] <haru> preferablt share
[12:45] <gordboy> lethu, :)
[12:45] <haru> btw when i run vnc4server however it just says u need a pwd to access your files and then stops
[12:45] <dooglus> haru: install 'x11vnc' then
[12:45] <Dimensions> andrewm:  ??
[12:46] <dooglus> haru: run 'vncpasswd' to set a password
[12:46] <xbow> hi all, I need help, I can't to install printer HP LJ 1018. dmesg output: drivers/usb/class/usblp.c: usblp0: removed. Next line: usb 4-2: usbfs: USBDEVFS_CONTROL failed cmd hpiod rqt 161 rq 1 len 1 ret -110. Used driver is foo2zjs, getweb done. What's wrong?
[12:47] <haru> dooglus, x11vnc is installed.
[12:47] <dooglus> haru: I run x11vnc like this:  x11vnc -display :0 -rfbauth ~/.vnc/passwd
[12:47] <andrewm> Dimensions: ok what system do you have.?
[12:47] <dooglus> haru: you'll need to have run 'vncpasswd' first, to create that passwd file
[12:48] <andrewm> Dimensions: and what features are you willing to give up ?
[12:48] <nicko_> hol como estas ?
[12:48] <dooglus> haru: you'll probably also need to stop vino first - using system > admin > remote desktop and unchecking stuff

[12:49] <Dimensions> andrewm i have many systems we run our own software on all ubuntu have deployed hundreds of them ... but nowadays we use smaller units 4 * 4 in size ... so we decided to use Slax instead ... but it would be better to have Ubuntu in lighter mode ... we dont use any thing else of ubuntu except using for our own 24/7 running software ...
[12:49] <CoOlGhOsT> Ive got an external harddrive (USB) which mounts automagically when I logon. How do i get to mount on boot and not on logon???
[12:50] <haru> dooglus, is this right?http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20148/
[12:50] <Dimensions> andrewm so would prefer lighter version of GDM ? or some other graphic manager etc ... we have noticed when it runs for few weeks it starts using Swap ....while we want it to rely only on 256 RAM ...
[12:50] <zwerkje_> i have a dual core proc. but only one core is in use how do i fix this?
[12:50] <andrewm> Dimensions: Just grab your self the ubuntu source, and trim down the distro to what is required to run the system and your software
[12:50] <dooglus> haru: no.  run x11vnc not vnc4server
[12:50] <andrewm> and make an ISO of that
[12:50] <dooglus> haru: vnc4server makes a new desktop, whereas x11vnc shares your existing one
[12:51] <andrewm> Dimensions: also make your own kernel with only support for hardware you have

[12:52] <billy> morning earth_creatures
[12:52] <Dimensions> okie dokie andrewm ... kinda ubuntu i think but 150 MB .. in size
[12:52] <dooglus> killerbunny: doStuff & doOtherStuff; doYetMoreStuff
[12:52] <Dimensions> anehow ... thanks ...
[12:53] <UberDox> Does anyone know why Kismet would spit FATAL: 'get_mode' does not return integer parameters.?
[12:53] <haru> dooglus, shud i use rdp to connect?
[12:53] <skyion> does anyone know about a bug in nfs with ubuntu
[12:53] <ant30> I think that is a problem with unicode charset and mrxvt
[12:53] <dooglus> haru: no, VNC
[12:53] <vm> like i am in heaven
[12:53] <andrewm> Dimensions: size of the installed distro has no bearing on the "lightness" of a distro
[12:53] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, fstab is your friend
[12:53] <haru> and how do i specify port to connnect on
[12:53] <vm> OMG I HAVE A CUBE lol, i will stop ranting now
[12:53] <andrewm> Dimensions: do you just want it to take up less space ?
[12:53] <haru> :port?
[12:53] <phatfish> I keep getting this error when i try to update or install certain packages: http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/universe/binary-i386/Packages.bz2: Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)
[12:53] <dooglus> haru: :0 --> port 5900, :1 --> port 5901, etc
[12:54] <Nooie> any one help on running/installing a jar file?
[12:54] <andrewm> Nooie: java -jar blah.jar
[12:54] <MartyMcFly> For some reason I can't ssh into a certain server from this ubuntu computer yet I can on the ubuntu computer next to me - any idea what could be blocking the connection?
[12:54] <penizillin> hallo
[12:54] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: hehe right now its not being very friendly... is all but the UUID syntax deprecated now?
[12:55] <Nooie> Andrewm: Doh you mean I have to do a command line?
[12:55] <haru> dooglus, it works but is equally slow... btw the transfer rate is 1mbps
[12:55] <dooglus> haru: strange
[12:55] <andrewm> Nooie: that was how you run it on the command line. You don't have to do that, you can launch it via a GUI, i just don't know how :)
[12:56] <Nooie> lol
[12:56] <haru> 10/05/2007 16:29:25 netrate: 998 KB/sec, latency: 92 ms
[12:57] <haru> dooglus, one last thing.. anyway to play media over ssh?
[12:57] <hellblade> Nooie: if it's a program you'll use frequently, you can create a shortcut
[12:57] <dooglus> haru: what if you just run 'vnc4server', note the display number it tells you and connect to that port (+5900)
[12:57] <dooglus> haru: I don't know
[12:57] <andrewm> haru: you can set up a tunnel. The man page will tell you how to do that
[12:58] <andrewm> haru: man ssh
[12:58] <jdowdle> I love tunnels, yum :)
[12:58] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, sorry was at WC (not warcraft : ), I don't think so as my fstab file is using it and am under feisty
[12:58] <haru> andrew already tunneling on port 5902.. wondering what shud i tunnel to acess media/disk
[12:58] <Aaroncn> /qoute ns
[12:58] <kavi> anybody got any experience with bcm-4318 chipeset?
[12:58] <Aaroncn> '/ns'
[12:58] <haru> w/o samba shares that is
[12:59] <hellblade> some 3D games completely freeze my pc(no ssh possible etc). do you know how I can trace the problem?
[12:59] <vm> okay guys, so if i got xgl working, where do i go to install beryl (instead of normal desktop effects in fiesty)
[12:59] <andrewm> haru: what protocol are you tunnelling ?
[12:59] <jdowdle> 3d games ? SSH?
[12:59] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: edgy upgrade converted mine and they are still there after upgrade to feisty...
[12:59] <haru> andrewm, atm tunneling vnc over ssh
[12:59] <jdowdle> Oh you can't login even to a console after its frozen?
[01:00] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: an entry in fstab will be sufficient tho?
[01:00] <haru> andrewm, want to tunnel something so that i can play music too
[01:00] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: cause i did that once and i got borked and some point
[01:00] <hellblade> jdowdle: I used ssh as an example of what kind of freeze I get. ie. only hard reboot helps
[01:00] <jdowdle> dang. anyway to disable join/part's in gaim/pidgin?
[01:00] <haru> tho dont know what
[01:00] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, probably yeah if you know what you are doing
[01:00] <jdowdle> hellblade: Ah. Not sure. You try looking at your x log?
[01:00] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: not sure if it was because of upgrade or cause of renaming of drives or whatever
[01:00] <jdowdle> hellblade: i know thats helped me before
[01:01] <andrewm> haru: ok, well the easiest way would be to run a shoutcast server  or some other thing to stream. OR you could use sshfs (fuse) and "mount" the other machine.
[01:01] <andrewm> via ssh
[01:01] <andrewm> so you have access to it's disks like you would your own HD
[01:01] <haru> andrewm, i think i will use sshfs
[01:01] <andrewm> k
[01:01] <vm> any reason i cant use the cube, i had it a few seconds ago..
[01:01] <andrewm> there are caveats to sshfs
[01:02] <hellblade> jdowdle: X start ok, I have direct rendering enabled, some 3D apps work (beryl, glxgears) but others fail
[01:02] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, that's why I always do fresh installs
[01:02] <dooglus> vm hold control+alt then click the left mouse button
[01:02] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: ive got some clues as to what im doing but im no means a guru or anything... been using linux for 3 years :-)
[01:02] <gordboy> dooglus, could you paste that url for gdm passwordless login again please. my logging was off
[01:02] <dooglus> http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-12777.html
[01:02] <gordboy> nice
[01:02] <vm> dooglus: nope
[01:02] <jdowdle> hellblade: yeah, but check out the log. It might be some specific extension. I'm not sure but its a good starting point
[01:02] <bullgard4> Why did Ubuntu install the DEB program package libapm1 although I'm using ACPI and not APM?
[01:02] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: yeah i know... they are better. but im a lazy wank.r
[01:02] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, am not a guru either : )
[01:02] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, lol
[01:03] <bullgard4> Warum hat Ubuntu mir das DEB-Programmpaket libapm1 installiert, obwohl ich ACPI verwende und nicht APM?
[01:03] <agranto> hola qe tal

[01:03] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: oh well... i guess ill just try fstab again
[01:03] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, the best way is to put your home dir in a separate partition like another guy in this chan suggested
[01:03] <leStat666> Please help ...
[01:04] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, good luck
[01:04] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: ???
[01:04] <leStat666> how do i make the resoluton stick on boot
[01:04] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: of course i have my /home on a seperate part
[01:04] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, that makes doing fresh installs easier
[01:04] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: aah... we're talking fresh installs now... lol
[01:04] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: i thought we were talking about mounting
[01:05] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, hehe no you didn't get me : )
[01:05] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, I was talking about future ; )
[01:05] <ROnewbie> ob
[01:05] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, when you ll be moving to gusty
[01:06] <hellblade> leStat666: it has to be the first one in the Modes line in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[01:06] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: my plan is ALWAYS to do a frest install... but when time comes it never happens hehe
[01:06] <Nooie> okay, I just did a jav -jar but I got an error about the AWT. Cannot load AWT toolkit
[01:06] <Nooie> any ideas?
[01:06] <hellblade> leStat666: or select it in the monitor settings
[01:06] <hellblade> Nooie: have you installed sun's java?
[01:07] <leStat666> im am running and upgrade to fesity
[01:07] <vm> where has my cube gone :(
[01:07] <leStat666> and run glx driver
[01:07] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, lol you are way more lazy than me
[01:07] <Nooie> I did Java -jar etc.... and it worked seemed to understand what I was talking about, so I assume so
[01:07] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: hehe i prolly am...
[01:07] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, hehe
[01:08] <nuked_omen> how do i mount my ntfs partiton, just install ntfs-3g and it does it automatically when i restart?
[01:08] <hellblade> Nooie: try "ls -l /etc/alternatives/java"
[01:09] <leStat666> hellblade, : http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20149/
[01:09] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: u have any ideas of which circumstances courses usb devices to be mounted on diff /dev/... points?
[01:09] <Nooie> hellblade: lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 2007-05-10 11:37 /etc/alternatives/java -> /usr/lib/jvm/java-gcj/jre/bin/java
[01:09] <tondar> gimme something to try on ubuntu, something new
[01:09] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: cause it doesnt make much sense to do a fstab entry if kernel decides to enable usb ports in different order than last bootup
[01:09] <tondar> a game ...
[01:10] <leStat666> tondar, world of padman
[01:10] <leStat666> :)

[01:11] <ubuntuBeginner> hello...  can someone help me with a simple problem?
[01:11] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, yeah that's right I made an udev to fix that for my ipod so that the device letters stay static but that was in gentoo and I don't know who all this works in ubuntu
[01:11] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, udev script*
[01:11] <ubuntuBeginner> where can I change the order of the operation system menu in the boot?
[01:11] <nuked_omen> ubuntuBeginner: no one knows if you don't ask
[01:11] <tondar> leStat666: gimme the site for it, is it in the reps?
[01:11] <leStat666> tondar:http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/news/article.php?storyid=2011
[01:12] <chrismhampson> erUSUL: did i do the right thing and type sudo fsck /dev/hdb1 for example?
[01:12] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: should be the same i would think as ubuntu uses udev as well... not sure tho
[01:12] <leStat666> hellblade, 1400x1050 85hz
[01:12] <dooglus> ubuntuBeginner: /boot/grub/menu.lst
[01:12] <tondar> leStat666: checking it out
[01:12] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: could be we would need a guru to tell us for sure tho :)
[01:12] <ubuntuBeginner> dooglus: thanks, i'll try
[01:12] <leStat666> tondar, : its fun :)
[01:12] <butters> anyone able to help me with networking with a WinXp machine.

[01:13] <leStat666> butters, : haha no i hate Networking!
[01:13] <leStat666> :P
[01:13] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, if you still want it I can pastbin it for you
[01:13] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, the udev script I mean
[01:14] <butters> lol - ive set up the basic ubuntu settings, and then gave my gf's comp a user name / pass
[01:14] <butters> but no luck ! :(
[01:14] <tondar> leStat666: what is the aim of this game?
[01:14] <VSpike> hi haru... I switched to gnome for a while, but then it all started to get seriously wierd on me so I had to switch back to KDE
[01:14] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: sure that would be great.. thanks!
[01:14] <leStat666> shoot and kill other people
[01:14] <leStat666> :)
[01:14] <vm> why has my cube stopped working
[01:15] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, oki np one min plz
[01:15] <gordboy> dooglus, i managed to get it going by editing /etc/pam.d/gdm, as explained in that post you gave. hooray :)
[01:15] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: thanks
[01:15] <leStat666> tondar, : http://www.linux-gamers.net/modules/wfdownloads/ <== for other games

[01:15] <CheshireViking_> nuked_omen, did you get an answer to your mounting an ntfs partition, if not, this might help http://www.ubuntugeek.com/widows-ntfs-partitions-readwrite-support-made-easy-in-ubuntu-feisty.html (i got disconnected so not sure if this came through)
[01:15] <haru> VSpike, really.. :S i am pretty confortable with gnome
[01:15] <hellblade> leStat666: first backup your original!
[01:15] <haru> VSpike, what went wrong?
[01:16] <VSpike> I was, while it worked .. i was actually quite liking the cleanness of it compared to kde
[01:16] <nuked_omen> CheshireViking_: it just did thanx
[01:16] <leStat666> ok :) :)
[01:16] <vm> gargh, my cube desktop worked, then i added another workspace, and now it wont work
[01:16] <hellblade> leStat666: I wasn't sure if you needed the metamodes so I commented them out
[01:16] <tondar> any fifa like game for linux?
[01:17] <tondar> leStat666: ^
[01:17] <ProN00b> does anyone know a easy way to turn a bunch of .png icons into an gnome icon theme ?
[01:17] <leStat666> i dont know what metamodes are !??
[01:17] <leStat666> fifa .. soccer .. dont know .. check linux games ...
[01:17] <leStat666> u may find one
[01:18] <VSpike> haru: first, firefox stopped loading pages, but networking was still OK - konqueror still worked.  Then it just went downhill from there... eventually it forgot my keyboard layout, all the control panel apps would start then exit immediately, i was getting wierd drawing effects on widgets in most programs, gnome-terminal would segfault immediately (although konsole still worked), and even the logout dialog would only appear some of the time, and
[01:18] <VSpike> when it did, was missing half the icons
[01:18] <billy_> How does one restore Window decorations in XFce?
[01:18] <leStat666> hellblade, : what are metamodes?
[01:18] <CoOlGhOsT> lethu: i have to got... please pm it to me.. thanks again!
[01:18] <lethu> CoOlGhOsT, oki cya
[01:18] <VSpike> leStat666: metamodes refer to modes relating to dual displays I think
[01:19] <haru> VSpike, lol... thats very weird
[01:19] <leStat666> oh i only have 1 monitor
[01:19] <tondar> any soccer fifa for linux?
[01:19] <VSpike> haru: I logged back into KDE, and everything works OK, including the gnome-terminal and firefox :)
[01:20] <VSpike> haru: I'm still getting some wierd widget things on some gnome apps.  I've turned off the KDE setting that tries to make gnome apps use KDE styles
[01:20] <VSpike> haru: It seems to be helping - probably need to restart KDE to be sure
[01:20] <leStat666> tonder: closest soccer game i could see
[01:20] <leStat666> http://www.bolzplatz2006.de/en/
[01:20] <vm> can anyone linke me to a compiz install tutorial for fiesty?
[01:20] <chrismhampson> I constantly get fsck errors on bootup. I run fsck and the next boot is fine. then it happens again next time I boot up. does anyone else get a lot of fsck errors?
[01:21] <VSpike> haru: I'd really like it to work because I was digging it, but I can't deal with all that
[01:21] <hellblade> leStat666: not sure. just try the new conf and see if it works
[01:21] <leStat666> ok ill bbs :)
[01:21] <hellblade> chrismhampson: could be broken hard drive
[01:21] <VSpike> haru: gut feeling is that it's to do with styles and widgets, and KDE conflicting with GTK somehow
[01:21] <haru> :(
[01:21] <Grizogovno> hi all, i hav a problem on my notebook, my cd drive wont boot
[01:21] <Grizogovno> can i somehow install from usb or fat32 partition
[01:22] <chrismhampson> hellblade: i don't think so...I don't have these probs in pclinuxos or any complaints when i check drives in win2k etc
[01:22] <CheshireViking_> Grizogovno, is the bios on your computer set to allow it to boot from cd before it boots from the hard drive?
[01:22] <Grizogovno> yes
[01:22] <Grizogovno> i tried all that
[01:22] <tondar> leStat666: how to install wop?
[01:22] <hellblade> chrismhampson: i am not sure then. any output from fsck about the nature of the errors?
[01:22] <VSpike> Grizogovno: I never managed it... I think if you have a wired ethernet adaptor you may stand a fighting chance of doing a network install
[01:22] <Grizogovno> cd is not working
[01:22] <chrismhampson> hellblade: could ubuntu not be shutting down properly? sometimes it complains that the time stamp of something is in the future and also that APT is not installed
[01:23] <tondar> leStat666: feisty
[01:23] <Grizogovno> i have a pxe- install option
[01:23] <Grizogovno> and a floppy boot
[01:23] <Grizogovno> pxe boot
[01:23] <Grizogovno> and i can emulate usb as floppy
[01:23] <NekoKun> how do I make a folder mappeable to windows?
[01:24] <hellblade> NekoKun: you mean map a network drive in windows?
[01:24] <Grizogovno> i found a article how to install gentoo from usb but nothing or ubutnu
[01:24] <NekoKun> yup
[01:24] <Grizogovno> i can link you
[01:24] <leStat666> hellblade, : nope still defaulting to 1024x768 on boot :(
[01:25] <tondar> leStat666: how to install wop?
[01:25] <tondar> fesity
[01:25] <tondar> feisty
[01:25] <hellblade> NekoKun: I think you can browse the samba shares and right click > map network drive
[01:25] <CheshireViking_> !install | Grizogovno, have a look at the first link on Ubotu's message, that gives a number of methods of installing
[01:25] <ubotu> Grizogovno, have a look at the first link on Ubotu's message, that gives a number of methods of installing: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways.

[01:25] <leStat666> if so sudo chmod +x <filename>
[01:25] <leStat666> then sudo ./<filename>
[01:26] <NekoKun> hellblade: But, I need to declare something on the folder, right
[01:26] <NekoKun> ?
[01:26] <Grizogovno> thx
[01:27] <ferronica> how to use "ping" in ubuntu ?
[01:27] <hellblade> leStat666leS: try to remove all other resolutions from that mode line and leave only yours. if that doesn't work neither check here http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/ChangeResolution
[01:27] <rollerskatejamms> If I remove a dependancy of a metapackage, that wont remove all the things the metapackage installed right?
[01:27] <vm> i want to install beryl, with an ati card using Xgl any help?
[01:27] <hellblade> ferronica: open a terminal and "ping HOSTNAME"
[01:27] <rollerskatejamms> i.e. I want to remove openoffice draw
[01:27] <hellblade> ferronica: or "ping IP"
[01:28] <dooglus> rollerskatejamms: it'll remove just draw and the metapackage
[01:28] <dooglus> rollerskatejamms: writer etc. will stay installed
[01:28] <ubuntuBeginner> anyone knows a program to slow the cpu fan speed?
[01:28] <leStat666> pingor ping -? for cmd line options
[01:28] <leStat666> err
[01:28] <ferronica> hellblade: like this "ping www.example.com"
[01:28] <hellblade> NekoKun: nope. just fill in the details in the window that opens
[01:28] <leStat666> ping -? for cmd line options
[01:28] <dooglus> hellblade: I think he might be trying to share his ubuntu home with some windows machines, not the other way around
[01:29] <hellblade> ferronica: yes
[01:29] <ferronica> hellblade: like as we use in Windows CMD
[01:29] <mwe> ubuntuBeginner: I'm using tp-fancontrol for my thinkpad. It's controlled via acpi. But this program is specific to thinkpads
[01:30] <ubuntuBeginner> mwe, humm i'm just moving from xp to ubuntu, and i had a program from the motherboard company to do that... normally the fan makes more noise than a chainsaw :(
[01:30] <haru> what port are samba shares accessed on
[01:30] <ferronica> hellblade: ping www.google.com
[01:30] <ferronica> hellblade: like that
[01:30] <hellblade> NekoKun: oh you mean you want to share a folder from your ubuntu box to a windows one?
[01:30] <leStat666> ferronica, : yes
[01:30] <leStat666> in term
[01:30] <vm> i want to install beryl.....i have xgl set up, how do i do it?
[01:30] <NekoKun> hellblade:  yes, to share... I have a linux folder and I need to make windows see it
[01:31] <mwe> ubuntuBeginner: yeah. I think it's at least possible in linux as well. But I'm not sure how if it's not a thinkpad
[01:31] <ferronica> leStat666: in term???
[01:31] <hellblade> vm: "sudo aptitude install beryl" should work
[01:31] <hellblade> vm: or the synaptic way
[01:32] <merijnofiets> hoi?
[01:32] <ubuntuBeginner> mwe, I'll search a little more. thanks!
[01:32] <hellblade> NekoKun: I think it's too complicated to explain here. lemme find a nice guide for you
[01:33] <gordboy> i've been using ntfs-3g as opposed to ntfs in gentoo & fedora. is ntfs-3g better than ntfs in ubuntu ?
[01:33] <luddite> fiesty keeps loosing my external USB drive and i have to delete it from fstab(i never put it there) until it gets recorgnised again
[01:33] <dooglus> gordboy: ntfs-3g allows write, ntfs doesn't
[01:33] <luddite> yes it does
[01:33] <gordboy> make your minds up :)
[01:33] <onur_> gordboy, I2ve used ntfs-3g about a year ago. I was satisfied with it at that time
[01:34] <gordboy> i'll go with ntfs-3g
[01:34] <hellblade> NekoKun: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Share_files_using_Samba
[01:34] <NekoKun> is it possible to grant mount permission to a user?
[01:34] <onur_> NekoKun, yes
[01:34] <dooglus> NekoKun: /etc/fstab can do that, with the 'user' flag
[01:34] <NekoKun> where user is the username?
[01:34] <luddite> i am using ntfs-3g now with firefox and thunderbird windows/ubuntu profiles sharing
[01:35] <onur_> nice
[01:35] <dooglus> NekoKun: where 'user' is a fixed string
[01:35] <dooglus> NekoKun: it allows all users to mount that partition.  you can set up sudo to allow specific users to run 'mount' as root, otherwise
[01:35] <luddite> so what ever os i open i get all emails /history etc
[01:35] <frinux> hi
[01:35] <hellblade> NekoKun: can post my samba configuration for you if you want, although I don't use password for my shares
[01:36] <fotoflo3> can gunzip decompress regular .zip files?
[01:36] <zsolty_szasz> hello, I need some help please! I have some problems regarding shutdown and reboot :(
[01:36] <frinux> I've a problem with samba : I can go on a PC through his IP, but there is nothing in Network places
[01:36] <root> foto, y
[01:36] <fotoflo3> root: good
[01:36] <hellblade> NekoKun: dooglus is talking about mounting a share from an other pc (eg mount a windowsXP share in your ubuntu)
[01:37] <riaal> Good day everyone, Im planing to get an USB 2.0 HDD for backup my ubuntu and windows system, Is there any filesystem that works on both? (Like an usb stick =) )
[01:37] <leStat666> ferronica, : Open a terminal and type ping hostname or ip
[01:37] <fotoflo3> root thanks
[01:37] <buzzzz> riaal: fat32
[01:38] <riaal> buzzzz, great, cheers
[01:38] <buzzzz> riaal: though it probably won't keep ubuntu's permissions
[01:38] <buzzzz> you might need to partition it
[01:38] <leStat666> hellblade, : is there a way to lock xorg.conf so it cant be changed by ubuntu?
[01:38] <phy2> make a copy

[01:39] <zoro> hey everyone - quick question. how do i tell apt-get to ignore a particular package?
[01:40] <leStat666> type apt-get --help
[01:40] <leStat666> :)
[01:40] <bullgard4> Why did Ubuntu install the DEB program package libapm1 although I'm using ACPI and not APM?
[01:40] <hellblade> NekoKun: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20155/ and you'll also have to add a user named "guest" with no login permisions or a home dir
[01:41] <zoro> leStat666: pfft :p
[01:41] <Costel> hi! i want to format a partiton and make it ext3 qtparted is useless
[01:41] <hellblade> leStat666: it doesn't change by ubuntu but the xserver might "gues" some settings sometimes
[01:41] <zoro> leStat666: doesn't help ;)
[01:41] <leStat666> well they are the option apt-get has
[01:41] <zsolty_szasz> I requaire some help , please! i have strange shutodwn/reboot problems :(
[01:42] <leStat666> hellblade, : can i stop it from "guessing" lol
[01:42] <zoro> leStat666: states nothing to do with ignoring packages
[01:42] <bullgard4> zsolty_szasz: ask!
[01:43] <Costel> why nobody gives me an answer or even an "i dont know"?
[01:43] <zoro> Costel: qparted is acutally pretty good. i think there's a bootable version of it too
[01:43] <hellblade> zoro: what exactly are you trying to do? if a package is a dependency for another one you should let it get installed too
[01:43] <CheshireViking_> !patience | Costel
[01:43] <ubotu> Costel: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[01:44] <Costel> i'm banned from kubuntu for no reason
[01:44] <Costel> ..
[01:44] <leStat666> --no-upgrade
[01:44] <leStat666>     Do not upgrade packages; When used in conjunction with install no-upgrade will prevent packages listed from being upgraded if they are already installed. Configuration Item: APT::Get::Upgrade.
[01:44] <zsolty_szasz> bullgard4: well ,my problem is that shutdown works ok, but when I want to boot my box, It's doesn't want to boot at first time, just the second time
[01:44] <zoro> hellblade: i've compiled a package to suit my needs at the momnet, and i want to tell apt to bugger off and stop overwriting  it ;)
[01:44] <hellblade> leStat666: did you check the link I sent you? adding some modelines in there will probably force that res for you
[01:44] <nuked_omen> probably remove the w bit from the file
[01:44] <leStat666> yeah i did that and am about to reboot and see if it worked
[01:44] <bullgard4> Costel: You probably did not use Gparted correctly. Gparted is a useful tool for your purpose.
[01:44] <hellblade> zoro: that's called "hold"
[01:44] <burnerx> anyone know where can i go to learn about iptables ?
[01:44] <buzzzz> zoro: "man apt-get" might help you
[01:45] <HymnToLife> burnerx, man iptables ?
[01:45] <buzzzz> zoro: hold and ignore are both in there
[01:45] <burnerx> i want some simple examples
[01:45] <Costel> after i formated a partition i must restart the box to make it ext3
[01:45] <bullgard4> zsolty_szasz: You need too analyze your dmesg messages.
[01:45] <bullgard4> to
[01:45] <zoro> buzzzz: i'm confused now - i've already checked the --help and the man but found nothing to help me. i'll look for hold now though
[01:45] <zoro> buzzzz: thanks
[01:45] <Costel> but after restart the ntfs files are still ther
[01:45] <arti_> nick arti
[01:45] <burnerx> anyone here config their iptables ?
[01:46] <buzzzz> zoro: gl
[01:46] <nuked_omen> what is an iptable
[01:46] <nuked_omen> !iptable
[01:46] <Costel> burnex:i do
[01:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about iptable - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:46] <nuked_omen> !iptables
[01:46] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[01:46] <hellblade> Costel: are you ok with erasing all data from this partition?
[01:46] <tondar> what is the apt for virtualBox?
[01:46] <Costel> yes
[01:46] <Costel> shure
[01:47] <zoro> buzzzz: :/ nothing in the man pages about that command. is it applied to "apt-get" or is there another command i should be aware of?
[01:47] <hellblade> Costel: let me find the command for you
[01:47] <Costel> ok
[01:48] <JuJuBee> I need help.  I just upgraded to 7.04 and my wireless cards are not working now.  I have Linksys (rt2500) card
[01:48] <ROnewbie> How can I have a data partition (other than the one I'm running Feisty from) permanently mounted on boot?
[01:48] <tondar> virtualBox not in feisty repos?
[01:48] <zsolty_szasz> bullgard4:can you be more explicit please ?
[01:48] <tondar> only deb?
[01:48] <buzzzz> zoro: nothing I know of... doesn't mean it doesn't exist, of course
[01:48] <sipior> ROnewbie: if there's a line for it in /etc/fstab, make sure the "auto" option is set
[01:48] <zoro> ubotu: :) i'll keep digging. thanks
[01:48] <zoro> buzzzz: *
[01:49] <sipior> ROnewbie: gnome might have a fancy way of setting that as well, look around
[01:49] <hellblade> Costel: "sudo mkfs.ext3 /dev/YOUR_PARTITION" but make sure it's unmounted and the right partition:)
[01:49] <buzzzz> zoro: best of luck
[01:49] <bullgard4> zsolty_szasz: I'm afraid not. Please tell me what you did not understand in my answer.
[01:49] <ROnewbie> sipior: gnome ... meaning the partition editor ?
[01:49] <Costel> i know that command...
[01:49] <jgalvin1> zoro - check pm
[01:49] <Costel> it formats the disk too?
[01:49] <reini> exit
[01:49] <hellblade> zoro: i can help you. 1 min pls
[01:50] <sipior> ROnewbie: no, i was thinking of the hard disk viewer in the system monitor
[01:50] <sipior> ROnewbie: best just to edit /etc/fstab anyway
[01:50] <hellblade> zoro: do you know how to use aptitude?
[01:50] <zoro> yup
[01:50] <ROnewbie> sipior: I just looked at fstab, and it only has my boot partition and the swap one
[01:50] <tondar> any chan for virtualBox?
[01:50] <ROnewbie> sipior: no mention of the data one
[01:50] <hellblade> zoro: sudo aptitude hold PACKAGE
[01:51] <jgalvin1> i told him that 5mins ago hellblade but i think i'm not l33t enough at unreal tournament for him :)
[01:51] <ROnewbie> sipior: and anyway, I just mounted it myself, but it won't allow me to write
[01:51] <sipior> ROnewbie: and you want to add another? just copy the boot partition line and modify the partition device
[01:51] <sipior> ROnewbie: this an ext3 filesystem?
[01:51] <Costel> ROnewbie:esti roman?
[01:51] <hellblade> zoro: or in it's ncurses UI you can highlight the right package version and press '='
[01:51] <ROnewbie> sipior: yes, it is
[01:51] <ROnewbie> Costel: da
[01:51] <ROnewbie> Costel: salutare.
[01:51] <Costel> salut
[01:51] <zoro> hellblade: thanks for that. it certainly did something. but another apt-get update will overwrite it. i presume that i have to use aptitude from now on?
[01:51] <Costel> esti al doilea cu care vb. aici
[01:52] <sipior> ROnewbie: how are you mounting it at the moment?
[01:52] <Grizogovno> how to do this Append c:\grldr="Install Ubuntu" to c:\boot.ini. i follow hard disk install instructions
[01:52] <hellblade> jgalvin1: :P\
[01:52] <jgalvin1> heh
[01:52] <jgalvin1> i must be on ignore

[01:52] <zoro> jgalvin1: this channel is moving at an incredible pace ;)
[01:52] <butters> so i know ps -ef prints the proccesses to the terminal, but how do i tell which one is say, axx the hard drive
[01:52] <butters> ?
[01:52] <zoro> jgalvin1: i got your pm though - only read it now :D
[01:53] <hellblade> zoro: not sure (that kind of options should be shared) but aptitude has better dependancy handling so yes
[01:53] <leStat666> i give up
[01:53] <leStat666> :P
[01:53] <jgalvin1> zoro: if i were drowning in the irish sea, would you rescue me?
[01:53] <zoro> jgalvin1: i would of course ;)
[01:53] <jgalvin1> good man
[01:53] <jgalvin1> i'll hold you to that
[01:53] <zoro> :D
[01:53] <zoro> do i actually know you? :)
[01:53] <jgalvin1> yes
[01:53] <zoro> your name is .... too familiar
[01:53] <jgalvin1> :)
[01:54] <hellblade> zoro: and btw aptitude has all the usual apt-get params, like install, remove etc
[01:54] <sipior> ROnewbie: since nautilus is not invoked at boot, you'll need to modify /etc/fstab; just copy the boot partition line and make the changes to the device name
[01:54] <zoro> hellblade: yeah i know that. i've just always defaulted to apt-get :) ty though
[01:54] <zoro> hellblade: time to change my habits ;)
[01:54] <zoro> jgalvin1: elaborate ;)

[01:56] <ROnewbie> sipior: ... ok, I'll give it a try. I'm just afraid I'll screw it up - just made a reinstall after playing with grub.conf too much. Can I give you the paste in private, and check w/ you that I'm changing the right thing?
[01:56] <zoro> hellblade: hold the power button for 4 seconds ;) :D
[01:56] <Wilson> Bom dia pessoal...
[01:56] <sipior> ROnewbie: sorry, i was going to say that i'm not sure why you would have a write problem, but make sure the "user" option is also set

[01:58] <CreativeEmbassy> partition magic? where do I see that?
[01:58] <CreativeEmbassy> maybe I should elaborate
[01:59] <CreativeEmbassy> I had ubuntu on my computer a month ago
[01:59] <Costel> ROnewbie:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20157/
[01:59] <CreativeEmbassy> I screwed some things up, so I went into windows
[01:59] <leStat666> hellblade, : yay! fixed it with http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=248755&postcount=5
[01:59] <CreativeEmbassy> and deleted the ubuntu partition
[01:59] <onur_> JuJuBee, was it working previously ?
[01:59] <CreativeEmbassy> made ntfs take up the entire space again
[01:59] <hellblade> leStat666: nice:)
[02:00] <JuJuBee> onur_ yes, in 6.10
[02:00] <tuxBandicoot> CreativeEmbassy: did u format the NTFS?
[02:00] <leStat666> hellblade, : thanks to your original link :)
[02:00] <CreativeEmbassy> now last time I restarted, grub comes up and I realized I just messed up my bootloader
[02:00] <leStat666> that page was at the bottom of it
[02:00] <onur_> JuJuBee,  were you using ndiswrapper ?
[02:00] <CreativeEmbassy> so I'm on the ubuntu live cd now
[02:00] <JuJuBee> No
[02:00] <CreativeEmbassy> tuxBandicoot: No, I didn't reformat ntfs.

[02:01] <CreativeEmbassy> I can't do that, lots of business materials on that drive I can't afford to lose :-(
[02:01] <onur_> JuJuBee, check above out and come back if this does not work
[02:01] <CreativeEmbassy> lemme double check what error I get
[02:01] <tuxBandicoot> CreativeEmbassy: have you tried with gparted?
[02:01] <cherva> have anyone installed 3dfs ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/innolab/ ) i have downloaded the source and when i run ./configure this comes out http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20158/
[02:01] <hellblade> CreativeEmbassy: if you need to resize the ntfs partition without loosing data, so that you can make space for an ubuntu installtion, download partition magic for windows from "somewhere"
[02:01] <compengi> is getdeb.com for ubuntu?
[02:01] <CreativeEmbassy> but I can't get into windows
[02:01] <hellblade> compengi: yes
[02:01] <CreativeEmbassy> that's the problem
[02:02] <nicko1> how do i remove the shortcut of my xp drives from the desktop?
[02:02] <soundray> hellblade: please don't recommend Partition Magic. gparted is safer
[02:02] <tuxBandicoot> CreativeEmbassy: you already got room for ubuntu?
[02:02] <soundray> CreativeEmbassy: just resize your partition with the installer.
[02:02] <hellblade> CreativeEmbassy: boot from the windows xp installation CD in the command prompt and run FIXMBR
[02:02] <compengi> hellblade, then if pidgin can be found there why it's not in the repos yet?
[02:02] <CreativeEmbassy> yeah, I have around 20 gigs available
[02:02] <onur_> nicko1, just delete them
[02:02] <CreativeEmbassy> well, it's windows vista

[02:17] <tty|-0> because i speak in spanish
[02:17] <tty|-0> a new configuration
[02:17] <hellblade> vm: that would be compiz. no idea how to rest/wipe its config. i think it's in gconf
[02:17] <nicolah> hellblade, do you think that tellico support barcodes ?
[02:17] <nicolah> rambo3, I'm checking "books" even if it's outdated (more than one year)
[02:18] <nicolah> rambo3, books is just for mac osx !
[02:19] <Jozxyqk> can anyone help? i feel like this should be an easy answer
[02:19] <hellblade> nicolah: i don't know. check this page http://rarebookblog.wordpress.com/2006/09/06/tellico-and-readerware-linux-based-book-cataloguing-software/

[02:19] <ubotu> Jozxyqk: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:19] <Jozxyqk> ziroday i did ask my question
[02:19] <Jozxyqk> hi.. how do i set up ubuntu to display "high characters" properly in text mode?  like the lines that appear around ncurses dialog boxes, etc
[02:19] <nicolah> rambo3, I found a books on freshmeat, and it's for mac
[02:19] <nicolah> thanks hellblade
[02:19] <ziroday> Jozxyqk: sorry im being blind :)
[02:20] <Jozxyqk> seeing "accented a" characters in aptitude is very annoying, i'd like them to appear like the box-border characters that they're supposed to look like
[02:20] <vm> hrm i need to know how to reset the compiz stuff..
[02:20] <Jozxyqk> something that "just worked" in my old debian environment
[02:20] <chrismhampson> since installing feisty i haven't been able to get openoffice quickstarter working properly. It appears after enabling in the options menu but then the tick disappears again. any ideas?
[02:20] <hellblade> Jozxyqk: try changing the font. this could help. I'm using dejavu mono
[02:21] <antonio_> Hola a tod@s
[02:21] <Jozxyqk> hellblade i dont think it is a font issue.. same ssh client (putty) with same settings sees the characters differently between the 2 systems
[02:21] <hellblade> vm: I think there is an #ubuntu-effects or something like that
[02:22] <leperkhanz> hellblade: Yes, there most definitely is.  and #beryl
[02:22] <hellblade> Jozxyqk: try a normal terminal + ssh
[02:22] <rami> hello guys, how does one assign to autostart programs to launch in specific desktops...i.e firefox in desktop 1, gaim 2...etc
[02:22] <Jozxyqk> i think it is a termcap issue, but i'm no termcap expert
[02:23] <Jozxyqk> hellblade, it also has the same thing when i run things locally
[02:23] <hellblade> leperkhanz: he is looking for help on compiz:)
[02:23] <leperkhanz> lol, is there a diff? :P
[02:23] <leperkhanz> Thought they were "merging" again anyway.

[02:34] <tidrion> PriceChild: what did I do wrong?
[02:34] <mattfletcher> i've still not budged this vmware. -f install gave "already running newest version"

[02:48] <eternaljoy> ziroday: hello
[02:48] <saillant> Please How open UDP - TCP ports  ( 7.04 )
[02:48] <ziroday> eternaljoy: hi
[02:49] <mattfletcher> pricechild: no such option -reconfigure
[02:49] <PriceChild> mattfletcher, bah... memory fails me... dpkg --reconfigure... dpkg-reconfigure or something? :s
[02:49] <tuxBandicoot> PriceChild: readin the HowTo ;) (triage)
[02:49] <saillant> Please How to open UDP - TCP ports  (on feisty fawn 7.04 )
[02:49] <honeymonkey> mattfletcher, how about doing it in init 1?
[02:49] <gerryxiao> hello, any good download tools on linux? just like flashget on windows
[02:50] <avenged56> does anyone know the best how to on s-video on a intel 945gm  i cant get it to work
[02:50] <ziroday> gerryxiao: well theres flashget on linux too (i think)
[02:50] <honeymonkey> i'll install vmwareplayer on my qemu ubuntu and see what it does to init.d
[02:50] <mattfletcher> pricechild: dpkg-reconfigure gives same error: invoke-rc.d: initscript vmware-player, action "stop" failed.
[02:50] <mattfletcher> honeymonkey: how might i do that?
[02:50] <gerryxiao> ziroday:  not found by now
[02:50] <tominglis> hi, i was wondering if it is possible to install opera 9 and realplayer 10 and acrobat reader 8 from the commercial repository in feisty
[02:50] <hellblade> Invertigo: try "ssh localhost" to check if it's up and running
[02:50] <tominglis> i can't seem to find them in there?
[02:51] <PriceChild> mattfletcher, hmm.... thisisn't going to be easy I suppose... I don't want to suggest anything to you because I'm not completely sure and don't want to mess your system
[02:51] <ziroday> gerryxiao: plus theres loads of gui for wget
[02:51] <VSpike> mattfletcher: are you trying to remove vmware?
[02:51] <ziroday> gerryxiao: have you tried searching download in synaptic?
[02:51] <mattfletcher> it's only a morning old, i might just reinstall
[02:51] <PriceChild> tominglis, i was discussing this with a few people at UDS today and it seems feisty-commercial does not exist
[02:51] <mattfletcher> vspike: yes
[02:51] <honeymonkey> mattfletcher sudo init 1
[02:51] <bimberi> mattfletcher: try stopping it first - 'sudo invoke-rc.d vmware-player stop'
[02:51] <hellblade> tominglis: opera is available from their repository
[02:51] <gerryxiao> ziroday: yes
[02:51] <tuxBandicoot> anyone know what package does the site gnome-look.org uses?
[02:51] <mattfletcher> honeymonkey: thanks, i will try that in a bit
[02:51] <avenged56> does anyone know the best how to on s-video on a intel 945gm  i cant get it to work
[02:52] <gerryxiao> i found download for X, but not much good
[02:52] <ziroday> gerryxiao: and you found nothing :-/
[02:52] <mattfletcher> bimberi: that gives the same error i sent above
[02:52] <VSpike> mattfletcher: you could try editing /etc/init.d/vmware-player and insert the line "exit 0" right at the start
[02:52] <ziroday> gerryxiao: you can try dta for linux (firefox plugin)
[02:52] <AnRkey> can can any1 help my with booting ubuntu installer via pxe?
[02:52] <VSpike> mattfletcher: well, after the #!/bin/sh line anyway
[02:53] <gerryxiao> ziroday: does it support multithread downloading?
[02:53] <ziroday> gerryxiao: dunno
[02:53] <hellblade> tominglis: also check http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/ for the other two packages
[02:53] <gerryxiao> hmm
[02:53] <tominglis> PreChild: is it going to exist? if i install the deb files from the respective websites now will they be updated by the commerical repository when it does, or will i need to delete and then reinstall them?
[02:53] <gerryxiao> i'll try it
[02:53] <tominglis> hellblade: thanks
[02:53] <VSpike> mattfletcher: that should allow dpkg to continue with removal at least.
[02:53] <bimberi> mattfletcher: k, another way would be to stop it starting at boot 'sudo update-rc.d -f vmware-player remove' then reboot and uninstall
[02:54] <ziroday> gerryxiao: flashgot for linux https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/220
[02:54] <mcsd> "cannot mknod: Operation not permitted" when trying to extract a tar.gz file
[02:54] <mc44> tominglis: it will exist eventually :)
[02:54] <mattfletcher> blocking the init script with exit 0 seems to have done it!
[02:54] <mattfletcher> dare i reinstall it now?
[02:54] <gerryxiao> for some software, i need download it under windows and cp to my linux box
[02:55] <gerryxiao> ziroday: thx
[02:55] <hellblade> tominglis: if you add the repos I told you, they'll get auto updated. I think the commercial repo is getting replaced by linspire's CNR
[02:55] <Toma-> eternaljoy: are you on the nvidia install now?
[02:55] <ziroday> gerryxiao: np
[02:55] <honeymonkey> mattfletcher you could try qemu
[02:55] <bullgard4> Why did Ubuntu install the DEB program package libapm1 although I'm using ACPI and not APM?
[02:55] <DaHex> Hi all, im trying to install downloaded software with "make" , but is doesnt seem to be working
[02:55] <bimberi> mattfletcher: why not? you seemed to be ready to do a total reinstall a minute ago :)
[02:55] <ziroday> eternaljoy: youre back
[02:55] <mattfletcher> honeymonkey: i might do
[02:55] <eternaljoy> can anyone here help me get my Nvidia 7300 Video Drivers working in Feisty pls?

[02:56] <eternaljoy> ziroday: I think i have multiple nvidia drivers installed
[02:56] <tuxBandicoot> hey PriceChild: is the gnome-look.org an out of the box site that uses PHP or it's all hand made?
[02:56] <mattfletcher> well thank you everyone who has helped me. i'd better get on with some proper work now. like installing neverball or summat
[02:56] <Toma-> eternaljoy: are you using the system that has the failed nvidia drivers
[02:56] <leperkhanz> How do I flush my dns in Ubuntu?
[02:56] <gerryxiao> or download it under winxp virtual machine guest and then cp to linux host
[02:56] <PriceChild> ToXedVirus, haven't a clue
[02:56] <eternaljoy> Toma-: yes on it now
[02:56] <tuxBandicoot> PriceChild: I mean if they used any packages or not?
[02:56] <PriceChild> haven't a clue
[02:56] <hellblade> tuxBandicoot: it's custom code
[02:56] <ziroday> eternaljoy: you can uninstall them but it shouldnt matter (i hope0
[02:56] <Costel> someone can help me disable vmware server's dhcpd and use dhcp3-server?
[02:56] <pirx> nope, unchecking system sounds still plays that little drum when loggin out
[02:57] <honeymonkey> mattfletcher get the qemu-launcher and read http://www.crazysquirrel.com/computing/debian/applications/xp-under-debian-with-qemu.jspx to set up tun
[02:57] <Toma-> eternaljoy: and youve switched to the 'nv' driver?
[02:57] <eternaljoy> ziroday: I used automatix2 crap to install nvdia drivers, but I removed them I think!
[02:57] <honeymonkey> damn
[02:57] <honeymonkey> sorry
[02:57] <tuxBandicoot> hellblade: so no pre-made pack?
[02:57] <tuxBandicoot> it's all done by a programmer?
[02:57] <eternaljoy> Toma-: xorg says "nv"
[02:57] <ziroday> eternaljoy: automatix is not god for drivers
[02:57] <ziroday> *good
[02:57] <eternaljoy> ziroday: I learned that :(*
[02:57] <kdehl> Hi there. I just wondered how I can close a DVD that I've burnt but apparently forgot to close. I can't find any option for it in k3b, nor does cdrecord support DVDs, and I can't find a version in Adept that does. What do I do?
[02:57] <ziroday> eternaljoy: do you have a gui
[02:57] <Toma-> eternaljoy: ok. did you try to get nvidia working last time you started X?
[02:57] <eternaljoy> ziroday: gui?
[02:57] <honeymonkey> so, anyone ever setted up an openshh server remotely?
[02:57] <eternaljoy> Toma-: what?
[02:57] <frustratedwithed> can someone help me with edubuntu 7.04 setup questions in this IRC?
[02:58] <eternaljoy> ziroday: im running fesity now in GUI
[02:58] <mc44> frustratedwithed: you might want to try #edubuntu
[02:58] <eternaljoy> ziroday: its using "nv"
[02:58] <Toma-> eternaljoy: ok. did you try to get the nvidia driver working last time you started the computer??
[02:58] <ziroday> eternaljoy:great
[02:58] <hellblade> eternaljoy: quick steps... backup your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, install nvidia-glx-new, run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" and choose nvidia as driver
[02:58] <ziroday> eternaljoy: run envy
[02:58] <fierycleric> !ask
[02:58] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:58] <eternaljoy> Toma-: it wont work!  X stops
[02:58] <ziroday> eternaljoy: have you got envy?
[02:58] <HymnToLife> frustratedwithed, if you do not actually ask a question, we cannot actually help you...
[02:58] <eternaljoy> hellblade: install nvidia-glx-new?
[02:58] <bimberi> honeymonkey: what do you mean?  do you have some kind of shell access to it now?
[02:58] <eternaljoy> ziroday: where I get envy?
[02:58] <tuxBandicoot> hellblade: custom code as in all done by a programmer from scratch?
[02:58] <avenged56> does anyone know the best how to on s-video on a intel 945gm  i cant get it to work
[02:59] <eternaljoy> hellblade: when I chose dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" and choose nvidia as driver, X refuses to start
[02:59] <hellblade> tuxBandicoot: I think yes. not 100% sure though
[02:59] <eternaljoy> !envy
[02:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about envy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:59] <hellblade> eternaljoy: have you installed the driver I told you?
[02:59] <eternaljoy> ziroday: E: Couldn't find package envy
[03:00] <eternaljoy> hellblade: yes.install nvidia-glx-new
[03:00] <ziroday> eternaljoy: http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[03:00] <tuxBandicoot> hellblade: could they share it maybe?
[03:00] <tuxBandicoot> or publish it
[03:00] <tuxBandicoot> ?
[03:00] <eternaljoy> hellblade: it removed  nvidia-glx
[03:00] <hellblade> tuxBandicoot: ask the admin. I have no connection with him:)
[03:01] <tuxBandicoot> hellblade: thnaks
[03:01] <hellblade> eternaljoy: can you pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
[03:01] <Toma-> eternaljoy: if these guys dont get it fixed, come back in 14 hrs and ill get it working
[03:01] <hellblade> !pastebin
[03:01] <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)
[03:01] <honeymonkey> bimberi nope, it's my mom's pc and I wrote a script that should've set up sshd (she ran it) but I get connection refused and I feel dumb
[03:01] <eternaljoy> ziroday: do I get envy_0.9.2-0ubuntu7_all.deb?
[03:01] <eternaljoy> hellblade: ok
[03:01] <Toma-> hellblade: hes using nv right now, you wont get any useful info from that
[03:01] <ziroday> eternaljoy: you gotta pick someone to follow
[03:01] <eternaljoy> Toma-: ok
[03:02] <eternaljoy> ziroday: im trying envy
[03:02] <eternaljoy> ziroday: do I get envy_0.9.2-0ubuntu7_all.deb?
[03:02] <tuxBandicoot> anyone know gnome-look admin mail add?
[03:02] <ziroday> eternaljoy: yeah
[03:02] <bimberi> honeymonkey: you've go network connectivity? can you ping it?
[03:02] <hellblade> Toma-: with the dpkg-reconfigure I mentioned he should get the right config
[03:02] <frustratedwithed> For edubuntu I have double-nic AMD64 server connected on eth1 to my router and eth0 reserved for my LTSP clients.  After I installed the edubuntu server amd64 cd I can get connection to the internet, but the dhcp doesn't seem to be working, my PXE clients can't see it.  Any ideas?
[03:02] <honeymonkey> yep
[03:03] <eternaljoy> hellblade: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20164/
[03:03] <lethu> leperkhanz, what do you mean by flushing your dns?
[03:03] <eternaljoy> ziroday: ok and after dl it?  how I install it?
[03:03] <ziroday> just double click the file on your desktop
[03:03] <leperkhanz> in windows: ipconfig /flushdns
[03:03] <q-t> hey, when i save a document in openoffice as a word doc, it says that the document might contain formatting or content that cannot be saved as a word document...? Does this mean that an ordinary tekst document might loose data?
[03:04] <honeymonkey> bimberi yes. could I post the relevant parts of the script to see if I missed something?
[03:04] <ziroday> q-t: youre safe
[03:04] <honeymonkey> or should I pastebin
[03:04] <honeymonkey> ?
[03:04] <q-t> ziroday: kool
[03:04] <bimberi> honeymonkey: pastebin it/them
[03:04] <chrismhampson> does anyone have the latest openoffice quickstarter as a startup program on feisty? I don't seem to be able to get it working.
[03:04] <hellblade> eternaljoy: if envy doesn't help you let me know
[03:04] <eternaljoy> ziroday: ok envy installed
[03:04] <eternaljoy> hellblade: I will
[03:05] <eternaljoy> ziroday: i run envy now?
[03:05] <bullgard4> What other DEB program packages depend on package libapm to function correctly?
[03:05] <vagabon1> I'm getting an error when issuing the ./configure command while trying to install a package from source (couldn't find it on synaptic):  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20163/  -  I'm guessing I need those packages listed there in order to continue with configuration/installation, but when I search for them using synaptic I don't get anything that matches (closlely anyhow), can someone tell me what packages I need to have by looking at the terminal output?
[03:05] <ziroday> eternaljoy: now go to Apps > System Tools > Envy
[03:05] <ziroday> eternaljoy: yeah
[03:05] <eternaljoy> ok
[03:05] <honeymonkey> ok
[03:05] <hellblade> chrismhampson: have you installed it? what exactly doesn't work?
[03:05] <systest> Anyone know if there are plans to start including the full suite of kernel modules in the XEN kernel package?
[03:05] <MrFeetio> how can I set up multitouch trackpads?
[03:05] <eternaljoy> ziroday: which I chose?  i nstall Nvidia driver manually?
[03:06] <ziroday> eternaljoy: no automatic install nvidia
[03:06] <chrismhampson> hellblade: when i tick quickstarter in oo menus it appears but when start oo again, the tick has disappeared
[03:06] <lethu> does anyone know the equivalent to ipconfig's /flushdns command under ubuntu?
[03:06] <lethu> please : )
[03:06] <Pici> vagabon1: You need to install the dev package for those 4 missing packages
[03:06] <Pici> vagabon1: er, dev packages
[03:06] <hellblade> chrismhampson: can't help as I dont use that. sry:(
[03:07] <leperkhanz> I doubt it will even work.  I'm pretty sure Cox is just shutting me down off of AIM because I sent a mp3 at 70 kb/sec to my gf.
[03:07] <SnuS> Help. I made a repository for my LAN for ubuntu 6.06 using debmirror and am lacking some packages (like libaudio2, libqt3). I'm getting it off iasi.roedu.net. Any suggestions on fixing this ?
[03:07] <Pici> vagabon1: For example, gtk+-2.0-dev
[03:07] <leperkhanz> They probably have some bot blocking my server connection to oscar as a result assuming that I am a pirate.
[03:07] <noelferreira> how can i have this bakcup files not created: file.~1~     file.~2~  file.~3~ ... i only need one backup. ?
[03:07] <ROnewbie> does anyone know how to automount a data partition in Feisty ?
[03:07] <ROnewbie> preferably upon boot /
[03:07] <ROnewbie> ?
[03:08] <ziroday> !automount
[03:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automount - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:08] <SlimeyPete> ROnewbie: you need to edit /etc/fstab. If you google for "fstab" you should be able to find some tutorials.
[03:08] <eternaljoy> ziroday: ok! it now says: DO you want xorg.,conf auto configured?
[03:08] <ziroday> eternaljoy: yes
[03:08] <eternaljoy> ziroday: ok
[03:08] <ziroday> eternaljoy: then yes again and good luck
[03:08] <eternaljoy> ziroday: now it says to restart
[03:08] <vagabon1> Pici: would libgtk2.0-dev be the same package?  I don't see anything that just says gtk+-2.0...
[03:08] <systest> ROnewbie: what do you mean by data partition, a local filesystem?
[03:08] <flake> version 7.04  - have there really been no updates in a while?  seems like every time I boot up it says there are no updates needed
[03:08] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: If it all works you should try beryl.
[03:08] <eternaljoy> ziroday: if X refuses to start, what I do?
[03:09] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: I wish
[03:09] <ROnewbie> SlimeyPete: I just did that, under the help of a wannabe guru, and it didn't work
[03:09] <hellblade> vagabon1: yes. no '+' are allowed in package names
[03:09] <eternaljoy> ziroday: i will brb I hope
[03:09] <Pici> vagabon1: Yes, sorry, (I was trying to recite from memory)
[03:09] <ziroday> eternaljoy: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and pick the nv driver
[03:09] <eternaljoy> ziroday: if I take longer then 2mins, that means X wont load
[03:09] <leperkhanz> good luck!
[03:09] <ziroday> eternaljoy: im countin
[03:09] <vagabon1> k, thanks
[03:09] <eternaljoy> brb I hope
[03:09] <honeymonkey> bimberi http://www.pastebin.ca/480788
[03:10] <lethu> leperkhanz, can't you contact somebody (an admin?) to fix this for you
[03:10] <leperkhanz> how do I give jackd realtime permission?
[03:10] <SlimeyPete> ROnewbie: what did you add? Do you get any error messages when you try to mount it?
[03:10] <ROnewbie> systest: I mean another partition of my hardrive than the one I'm booting from
[03:10] <hellblade> eternaljoy: if X dont come up, "sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[03:10] <arcad3> !ext3
[03:10] <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
[03:10] <leperkhanz> lethu: my aim connect problem?
[03:10] <ROnewbie> SlimeyPete: no, no error messages, but I wouldn't see it even in /mnt
[03:10] <honeymonkey> bimberi the script didn't append the public key, but port 22 is closed anyway
[03:10] <hellblade> ROnewbie: what filesystem is that partition and what /dev/hdX?
[03:11] <systest> ROnewbie: then the "edit fstab" advice you recieved is correct.  What's not working?
[03:11] <lethu> leperkhanz, yeah
[03:11] <_cosmo1t> hello hello
[03:11] <ziroday> 1 min and eternaljoy aint back yet :(
[03:11] <leperkhanz> I don't think there is anyone in this county who knows pcs better than I do, and I'm a damn n00b compared to half the people in my irc channels.
[03:11] <_cosmo1t> anyone configured cvsd on their ubuntu distro?
[03:11] <leperkhanz> much less my evil, awful ISP.
[03:11] <ROnewbie> hellblade: ext3
[03:11] <_cosmo1t> i set up the jail, and a ln -s to my repository
[03:11] <_cosmo1t> now i get
[03:11] <_cosmo1t> cvs [login aborted] : unrecognized auth response from localhost: cvs pserver: cannot open /stuff/CVSROOT/config: Too many levels of symbolic links
[03:11] <ROnewbie> hellblade: what's /dev/hdx ?
[03:11] <SlimeyPete> ROnewbie: so... you created a directory, e.g. /mnt/otherPartition, then you add a line to the fstab to tell the system to mount (eg) /dev/sda1 into /mnt/otherPartition?
[03:11] <leperkhanz> talk about the blind leading the ignorant.  NEVER go with Cox as an ISP if you can help it.
[03:11] <flake> have there really been no updates in the past week to 7.04?  I'm just curious, I haven't had to run synaptic in a while
[03:12] <ROnewbie> SlimeyPete: no, I didn't create any directory; I just added a line in fstab
[03:12] <flake> for a month at least
[03:12] <graveson1> is there a good app to convert from divx to h.264,excluding acidrip and vlc
[03:12] <ziroday> dammit 2 minutes and eternaljoy aint back dammit
[03:12] <ziroday> eternaljoy: you alive?
[03:12] <SlimeyPete> ROnewbie: you need to create a directory into which you will mount the drive...
[03:12] <hellblade> ROnewbie: your partition name. eg /dev/hda2
[03:12] <ROnewbie> systest: it's just not loading
[03:12] <leperkhanz> flake: not really, nothing exciting.

[03:12] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: got nvidia?
[03:12] <eternaljoy> ziroday: X started thuis time.  So how do I make sure my nvidia drivers are working now?
[03:12] <tuxBandicoot> woops
[03:12] <ROnewbie> hellblade: /dev/sda5
[03:12] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: how can I check?
[03:12] <ziroday> eternaljoy: well can u see stuff
[03:12] <eternaljoy> ziroday: yes LOL ;)
[03:12] <leperkhanz> system
[03:12] <leperkhanz> admin
[03:12] <systest> ROnewbie: SlimeyPete is on the right track, I won't add to the confusion
[03:12] <leperkhanz> restricted drivers
[03:12] <flake> no prob, just checked my sources.list to make sure :)
[03:13] <ziroday> eternaljoy: then they worked :)
[03:13] <z0man> think im getting somewhere with my error 17.....even though my hardware is really uptodate stuff I'm going to make sure my /boot is at the beginning of my hd drive
[03:13] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: nothing there about Nvidia
[03:13] <ROnewbie> systest: thanks :-)
[03:13] <CheshireViking> eternaljoy, in a terminal, try typing "glxgears" to see if your 3d is working
[03:13] <ziroday> eternaljoy: you made it now you can go install beryl
[03:13] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: Good!
[03:13] <lethu> leperkhanz, erf : s
[03:13] <leperkhanz> Now, go join #beryl and get it on for real.
[03:13] <eternaljoy> ziroday: but system admin restricted drivers doesnt mention Nvidia
[03:13] <ziroday> eternaljoy: it shouldnt
[03:14] <ROnewbie> SlimeyPete: ok, sounds good, but mind the "newbie" part. Isn't there a GUI way of doing it ?
[03:14] <eternaljoy> CheshireViking: glxgears gives me 3 gears rotating
[03:14] <berent> anyone here
[03:14] <ign0s> hello ppl
[03:14] <crazychicken> hey guys
[03:14] <ziroday> eternaljoy: youre alive and running brilliant
[03:14] <leperkhanz> mine says, "Nvidia accelerated graphics driver"
[03:14] <eternaljoy> ziroday: where were you 8 hours ago? :)
[03:14] <ziroday> eternaljoy: you want beryl?
[03:14] <_cosmo1t> so anyone w/ cvsd?
[03:14] <_cosmo1t> sorry ot jump in
[03:14] <ROnewbie> SlimeyPete: the first time I installed feisty it would automount both other partitions on boot.
[03:14] <leperkhanz> enabled is checked and in use.
[03:14] <HymnToLife> eternaljoy, that's pretty much what it's supposed to do... How many FPS ?
[03:14] <ziroday> eternaljoy: at school lol
[03:14] <hellblade> ROnewbie: add "/dev/sda5        /media/MOUNTPOINT    ext3    user,defaults           0       0" in /etc/fstab and then create that MOUNTPOINT dir
[03:14] <berent> is there anything else apart from gimp for images and 3d
[03:14] <SlimeyPete> ROnewbie: there might be, but I'm not aware of it. I've always done it by editing fstab.
[03:14] <butters> ok, im in the mouse button file
[03:14] <crazychicken> i've installed ubuntu 7.04 on several machines
[03:14] <CheshireViking> eternaljoy, you can also try entering "glxinfo", i'm not sure whether that will tell you if the nvidia driver is working though
[03:14] <eternaljoy> ziroday: nobosy mentioned Envy to me for 8 hours trying to get this to work :P
[03:14] <berent> is there anything else apart from gimp for images and 3d
[03:14] <crazychicken> but i'm having trouble on my T43 Thinkpad
[03:15] <leperkhanz> berent: You might want inkscape.
[03:15] <butters> and the example has a few extra features than what im looking at
[03:15] <daynah> So... I was told to find the gimp folder (hidden, I understand how to view them) that will contain my brushes folder in my home folder. It isn't there. Any ideas as to where it's hiding?
[03:15] <eternaljoy> HymnToLife: how can I tell FPS?
[03:15] <leperkhanz> what are you looking to do, specifically?
[03:15] <ROnewbie> hellblade: I don't know the UUID for this one, and the other two partitions in fstab have one (the boot partition and the swap)
[03:15] <HymnToLife> eternaljoy, it doesn't print them in the console ?
[03:15] <ziroday> eternaljoy: not many ppl like it because if you upgrade you have to remove the drivers
[03:15] <hydrophobic> hi can someone tell me where i would go to get the standard C libraries?
[03:15] <berent> leperkhanz : how better is it for 3d
[03:15] <SlimeyPete> ROnewbie: sounds like you've installed a bit of software which has edited your fstab. That does happen sometimes (though it's a bit naughty - software shouldn't do that without warning you of hte consequences)
[03:15] <leperkhanz> for 3d?
[03:15] <HymnToLife> hydrophobic, build-essential
[03:15] <ziroday> eternaljoy: but thats 6 mths away lol
[03:15] <berent> !inkscape
[03:15] <ubotu> Inkscape is a powerful vector graphics drawing application - see http://www.inkscape.org/ for more
[03:15] <ziroday> eternaljoy: you want beryl?
[03:15] <graveson1> is there a good app to convert from divx to h.264
[03:15] <_cosmo1t> wow it's hard to keep up reading in here lol
[03:15] <eternaljoy> CheshireViking: it didnt say
[03:15] <hellblade> ROnewbie: you can substitute UID with /dev/sda5
[03:15] <leperkhanz> you probably want blender and about 40 years of experience.
[03:15] <hydrophobic> thanks
[03:15] <eternaljoy> ziroday: thanks a LOT for this :)
[03:15] <HymnToLife> eternaljoy, try    glxgears -printfps
[03:16] <eternaljoy> ziroday: yes
[03:16] <eternaljoy> HymnToLife: ok
[03:16] <CheshireViking> eternaljoy, what version of ubuntu are you using? if its Edgy, you need to type "glxgears -printfps", on my fiesty install i don't need the printfps part
[03:16] <ziroday> eternaljoy: no prob now i can go to bed
[03:16] <ROnewbie> hellblade: I'm a little lost between what you are saying and slimey, ... let me give his advice a try first, is that ok ?
[03:16] <ziroday> eternaljoy: sure add these to /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:16] <crazychicken> it gets very close to booting live cd, then the screen is black with a spinning cursor in the middle, but it stays like that for hours
[03:16] <eternaljoy> HymnToLife: glxgears -printfps didnt tell me
[03:16] <ROnewbie> SlimeyPete: well, that's the thing, it's a quasi fresh install I'm doing this on.
[03:16] <HymnToLife> pfft, once again a stupid odea of Ubntu devs it seems
[03:17] <CheshireViking> eternaljoy, it should show the fps in the terminal window, nothing appearing at all in that?
[03:17] <eternaljoy> ziroday: i deeply appreciate your help.  And thank a lot to HymnToLife, hellblade, CheshireViking too
[03:17] <eternaljoy> and Toma- :)
[03:17] <HymnToLife> glxgears prints the FPS in _every_ other OS
[03:17] <leagris> graveson1, ffmpeg2theora I like it much. Command line, simple, works fine.
[03:17] <CheshireViking> np
[03:17] <ziroday> eternaljoy: no prob an now ill tell you how to get awesome beryl
[03:17] <fabio__|> hello, is there a good VPN server for ubuntu?
[03:17] <berent> leperkhanz : how better is it for 3d and does it require nvidia driver like opengl
[03:17] <eternaljoy> CheshireViking: it only says: Usage:  -display <displayname
[03:17] <leperkhanz> blender?
[03:17] <eternaljoy> ziroday: ok :)
[03:17] <eternaljoy> HymnToLife: lol :)
[03:18] <HymnToLife> it's a funny toy to play around with when you're bored but that's about it...
[03:18] <leperkhanz> you are looking at starting a new career, you better go google, but blender is AWESOME for 3d stuff.
[03:18] <ziroday> eternaljoy: in terminal echo "deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org feisty main
[03:18] <moauud> #ubuntu-sa
[03:18] <berent> !beryl
[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] <graveson1> leagris: does it decode into theora ?
[03:18] <ziroday> eternaljoy: then deb-src http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org feisty main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:18] <crazychicken> can anyone point me some direction?
[03:18] <hellblade> ziroday: why not install beryl from official repos?
[03:18] <leperkhanz> look up beryl in youtube.
[03:18] <leperkhanz> then decide if you want it.
[03:19] <ziroday> hellblade: are they up to date?
[03:19] <crazychicken> after looking online it seems there is some problem with the default video drivers
[03:19] <eternaljoy> seeing glxgears works and displays 3 gears rotating, that means my Nvidia card is being used now?
[03:19] <leagris> graveson1, it encode any video formats supported by ffmpeg into theora
[03:19] <noelferreira> how can i have this bakcup files not created: file.~1~     file.~2~  file.~3~ ... i only need one backup. ?
[03:19] <arcad3> how do i make a video like i n Youtube?
[03:19] <ziroday> eternaljoy: yes
[03:19] <eternaljoy> ziroday: ok
[03:19] <HymnToLife> eteran, not necessarily
[03:19] <berent> leperkhanz : i don't have nvidia card. I want some thing which helps me with my card still provides me good 3d
[03:19] <SlimeyPete> ROnewbie: right, just to summarise: you need to tell the system to mount a partition device (//dev/sda5) into a directory (which can be anything, for instance /mnt/disk or /media/mount or whatever you like). You also need to make sure that that directory exists - if it doesn't, then create it. The line that hellblade quoted you for fstab should work - just copy it in and subsitute your chosen directory instead of /media/mountpoint
[03:19] <ziroday> !instabul | arcad3
[03:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about instabul - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:19] <berent> !blender
[03:19] <HymnToLife> if they're rotating at 30 FPS.. Well, you get the point
[03:19] <ubotu> blender is a free application for 3D modelling, animation, rendering, etc. You can install it from Ubuntu's repositories, and tutorials are at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro
[03:19] <graveson1> leagris: i need something to convert to h.264
[03:19] <leagris> graveson1, if you like gui you can have a try with avidemux
[03:19] <hellblade> noelferreira: do you know which program creates them?
[03:19] <ziroday> eternaljoy: now wget http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/root@lupine.me.uk.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add -
[03:20] <eternaljoy> ziroday: I type:   echo "deb http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org feisty main" ?
[03:20] <leperkhanz> berent: good luck man.  Without a graphics card of some sort it is very difficult to get good 3d for any app / game.
[03:20] <noelferreira> hellblade: i think it is emacs hellblade
[03:20] <arcad3> !istambul
[03:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about istambul - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:20] <ziroday> eternaljoy: are you still on that step?
[03:20] <leperkhanz> berent: you can give zsnes a shot. :D
[03:20] <eternaljoy> ziroday: yes :P
[03:20] <WaterHose> I'm looking for some help with my Apache server running on Ubuntu. Any volunteers?
[03:20] <SlimeyPete> ROnewbie: don't worry about UUIDs at all, by the way. That's a new thing that ubuntu uses but you can stilluse the old-fashioned "/dev/sda5"
[03:20] <berent> leperkhanz : i have a intel card
[03:20] <eternaljoy> ziroday: but im copying your messages
[03:20] <berent> leperkhanz : but not too much updated
[03:20] <berent> !zsnes
[03:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about zsnes - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:21] <ziroday> eternaljoy: easier way jus realised :p sorry do sudo apt-get install beryl beryl-manager emerald-themes
[03:21] <honeymonkey> microphone, alsa, hda-intel. any takers?
[03:21] <leperkhanz> berent: what do you want to do exactly?  play games or make 3d models, or what?
[03:21] <eternaljoy> ziroday: my Rez is 50Hz.  Its usually at 60Hz before!  how do I change it?
[03:21] <Omnius> G'day, is it possible to install ubuntu by network?
[03:21] <imc_> Hiya how can I create the shortcut that allows me to type "oowriter" to the Run Application menu (ALT+F2) and have that launch openoffice.org2.2 -writer ?
[03:21] <greg_> hi all
[03:21] <ROnewbie> SlimeyPete: slimey, thanks a bunch. I'm right now on the phone, i'll give this a try. Thans.
[03:21] <ROnewbie> thanks
[03:21] <leagris> graveson1, either try vlc or mplayer mencoder. Any of these including avidemux can encode H.254 as long as the codeg is installed
[03:21] <honeymonkey> ich7
[03:21] <xnet-12__> hi
[03:21] <hellblade> noelferreira: if you use a GUI emacs then there should be some otpion in its menus
[03:21] <eternaljoy> ziroday: so all I need is to type: sudo apt-get install beryl beryl-manager emerald-themes ?
[03:21] <berent> leperkhanz : aminly for 3d models thats it no games and acceleration.
[03:21] <ziroday> eternaljoy: yep
[03:21] <SlimeyPete> ROnewbie: no problem
[03:21] <graveson1> leagris: thanks
[03:21] <eternaljoy> ziroday: my Rez is 50Hz.  Its usually at 60Hz before!  how do I change it?
[03:21] <leperkhanz> you want blender than.  Go google  blender 3d
[03:21] <HymnToLife> imc_, sudo ln -s $(which openoffice.org2.2-writer) /usr/local/bin/oowriter
[03:22] <usser> hey guys\
[03:22] <ziroday> eternaljoy: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution
[03:22] <noelferreira> i don't hellblade
[03:22] <imc_> HymnToLife, thanks so much
[03:22] <leperkhanz> it's the de facto for every OS now, not just linux.
[03:22] <ziroday> leperkhanz: what is?
[03:22] <eternaljoy> ziroday: it only shows 50Hz there
[03:22] <berent> leperkhanz : ok i will try it
[03:22] <leperkhanz> blender.
[03:22] <leperkhanz> for making 3d models.
[03:22] <berent> !blender
[03:22] <ubotu> blender is a free application for 3D modelling, animation, rendering, etc. You can install it from Ubuntu's repositories, and tutorials are at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro
[03:22] <ziroday> eternaljoy: then its a pain is it that much of a issue?
[03:22] <greg_> i want to remove the firefox package but only the firefox package. when i do an apt-get remove firefox, apt wants to remove also the gnome-core etc.... how can i ONLY remove the firefox package ?
[03:22] <ziroday> eternaljoy: you can do it but you have to edit your xorg
[03:22] <leperkhanz> ooohhh good link ubotu the bot.
[03:23] <eternaljoy> ziroday: does it matter or damage my notebook screen if its at 50Hz?
[03:23] <dr_willis> greg_,  the others are meta-packages - removing firefox will 'break' and thus remove them.
[03:23] <ziroday> eternaljoy: no
[03:23] <hellblade> noelferreira: i can't help you then. try searching on google for emacs options or something like that
[03:23] <tominglis> hey guys, what's the difference between helix player and real player?
[03:23] <eternaljoy> ziroday: ok
[03:23] <ziroday> eternaljoy: you got beryl yet?
[03:23] <cberlo> Hi folks.  I turned on Desktop effects and three of my desktops/workspaces disappeared.  Anyone know how to fix this properly?  I changed the properties on my desktop switcher and it shows three more workspaces, but when I switch to them, my panels disappear!
[03:23] <leperkhanz> tominglis: they both suck?
[03:23] <noelferreira> thanks hellblade
[03:23] <ffm> Whenever I change the /etc/motd, it changes back after a restart. Why is this? How can I stop it?
[03:23] <eternaljoy> ziroday: not yet!  im now trying to get quak4-demo run, but it gives me errors
[03:24] <tominglis> leperkhanz: well mplayer sucks more at playing their files on firefox
[03:24] <ziroday> eternaljoy: gtg now nite
[03:24] <eternaljoy> ziroday: night, cheers
[03:24] <dr_willis> ffm,  its dynamicially generated on each boot up. theres a script thats remaking it.
[03:24] <eternaljoy> hellblade: you here?
[03:24] <leperkhanz> tominglis: what are you trying to play?
[03:24] <CheshireViking> eternaljoy, the only thing with a different refresh rate is that you might not get the same screen resolutions you had before, if you're running at your normal resolution now, i wouldn't worry about it
[03:24] <WaterHose> How do I set permissions on a new folder so that a user can FTP into that folder? FTP server is already pointed at the folder. I guess I just need to set Linux file permissions.
[03:24] <dr_willis> ffm,  not that i rember WHICH script. however.
[03:24] <leagris> tominglis, helixplayer is free software allpurpuse media player. Realplayer is closed source binary only, realmedia only, spying user mediaplayer.
[03:24] <Mase> hey all, how long roughly does the edgy->feisty upgrade take ?
[03:24] <eternaljoy> CheshireViking: ok
[03:24] <hellblade> eternaljoy: yes
[03:24] <eternaljoy> anyone here got quake4-demo to run?
[03:24] <leperkhanz> tominglis: what kind of file do you want to play?
[03:24] <gejr> cberlo: compiz uses viewports, not gnome's desktops
[03:24] <eternaljoy> hellblade: can I paste quake4 demo errors?
[03:24] <ffm> dr_willis: How can I stop uit?
[03:24] <greg_> dr_willis: so if i understand, if i remove firefox, i remove gnome too ?
[03:24] <hellblade> Mase: 1-2 hours on a fast conection
[03:25] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: go get Urban terror.
[03:25] <gejr> cberlo: you'll have to set number of viewports in compiz
[03:25] <usser> WaterHose: what daemon u use?
[03:25] <hellblade> eternaljoy: yes but i'm not sure i can help. go on anyway
[03:25] <gejr> cberlo: i think it's done in gconf-editor somewhere
[03:25] <leperkhanz> it's free and beats the tar out of any quake.  gameplay wise.
[03:25] <dr_willis> ffm,  find the script and alter it.  its proberly got comments in it on what to do.  let me look in /etc/
[03:25] <ffm> kk
[03:25] <bullgard4> What other DEB program packages depend on package libapm to function correctly?
[03:25] <eternaljoy> hellblade: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20166/
[03:25] <cberlo> gejr: So basically it's not tuned quite enough yet?
[03:25] <leperkhanz> what's the quick way to up font size in pidgin?
[03:26] <WaterHose> proftpd
[03:26] <gejr> cberlo: yes, most likely
[03:26] <eternaljoy> anyone here know what these errors mean and why quake4-demo wont load?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20166/
[03:26] <Mase> hellblade: ok got 24mb /s to  a local mirror...i.e the datacenter is in my town on the same ISP and i am sure it's not the download speed. it's taken 5 so far on an athlon 2000. Should i kill it and do a dist-upgrade manually ?
[03:26] <ffm> dr_willis: I am in irssi and I cannot look w/o quiting out of IRC. If you find it, will you message me?
[03:26] <dr_willis> ffm,  grepping for 'motd' in /etc/init.d shows that 'bootmisc.sh' is doing it.
[03:26] <usser> WaterHose: hm, and where that folder is located?
[03:26] <leperkhanz> LOL, I just used beryl to zoom in.
[03:26] <ffm> !repeat | eternaljoy
[03:26] <ubotu> eternaljoy: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[03:26] <Mase> top shows it using various amounts of cpu/memory
[03:26] <dr_willis> ffm,  ya should learn to use 'screen' :) it lets you multutask on 1 shell.
[03:26] <ffm> dr_willis: will look into that. Thanks.
[03:26] <hellblade> bullgard4: open aptiude, go to libapm ('/' to search) and after selecting it and pressing return, scroll down to the "packages that depend on..."
[03:26] <gejr> eternaljoy: what does "glxinfo | grep direct" output?
[03:26] <Mase> so it doesn't look like it's hogging the cpu
[03:26] <ffm> dr_willis: Not over putty/ssh.
[03:27] <hellblade> bullgard4: quit with 'q'
[03:27] <WaterHose> usser: Folder is /etc/apache/htdocs I believe.
[03:27] <dr_willis> ffm i use screen over ssh/puty
[03:27] <ffm> dr_willis: How?
[03:27] <eternaljoy> gejr: ill look
[03:27] <Ivan> hello nama u sp
[03:27] <dr_willis> ffm i just run putty.exe then run screen..
[03:27] <tominglis> leperkhanz: i just want to be able to play all of the real media and windows media files you get on the web, especially the ones at the bbc site and trailers and stuff
[03:27] <dr_willis> ffm cant recall any issues with it.
[03:27] <ffm> kk.
[03:27] <usser> WaterHose: if ftpd enables local users to login, then i guess 'chown <localuser:localuser> /folder' should fix it
[03:27] <eternaljoy> gejr: direct rendering: Yes
[03:27] <tominglis> leperkhanz: i just have kmplayer plugin for konqi and mplayer plugin for firefox
[03:27] <tominglis> afaik
[03:27] <bullgard4> hellblade: I have done so. But there are no entries.
[03:27] <hellblade> Mase: any pregressbar or indication of activity? if not, go on and dist-upgrade it
[03:27] <gejr> eternaljoy: hm..so it's not the video drivers fault obviously
[03:27] <honeymonkey> greg_ dpkg --ignore-depends=firefox --remove firefox
[03:27] <leperkhanz> tominglis: It's mainly an issue of codecs then.  VLC has your best chance of opening random restricted codecs. imho.
[03:28] <usser> WaterHose: is user that logs in through ftp the same as your local user?
[03:28] <Mase> hellblade: it says its almost finished but it's been like that for hours
[03:28] <eternaljoy> gejr: quake4-demo wont run at all, with those errors.  Weird eh?
[03:28] <hellblade> Mase:do you have any disk activity?
[03:28] <WaterHose> usser: I thought so too, but when I tried it I can no longer login to FTP server. FTP user is different from user who created folder.
[03:28] <Mase> hellblade: yes
[03:28] <Ivan> hai anjing u jangan pake bahasa asing, q gak ngerti
[03:28] <tominglis> leperkhanz: i have w32codecs installed and libxine extracodecs
[03:28] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: forget quake.  Go download urban terror.  It's free, super fast, and way more fun.  Honest.
[03:28] <JuJuBee> How do I remove a route from the routing table permanentl?  Ihave a route to the 169 network for some reason.
[03:29] <butters> has anyone else messed with their mouse button mappings???
[03:29] <tominglis> leperkhanz: and all of the ugly and bad gstreamer ones
[03:29] <leagris> tominglis, vlc is the most versatile player. Be sure to install enough codecs including non-free (sorry). So you can play any video formats, audios and DVDs (dvdcss2 might help DMCA caught) as well.
[03:29] <gejr> eternaljoy: check out this thread: http://www.ogre3d.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=15751&highlight=&sid=e332918633716ab45827835878ca7c98
[03:29] <hellblade> Mase: it might not be safe to close it now then.... your pc your choice:P
[03:29] <gejr> eternaljoy: and do a search for couldn't find matching glx visual on google
[03:29] <Mase> hellblade: hmm
[03:29] <usser> WaterHose: hm try setting others to allow to access the folder
[03:29] <Ivan> anjing, kucing, monyet lu semua kayak hewan
[03:29] <tominglis> leagris: i have w32codecs, all gstreamer, libxine extracodecs, libdvdcss2, mplayer / mplayer plugin (on top of what is already in feisty)
[03:29] <greg_> honeymonkey: thx
[03:30] <crazychicken> how do i change which video drivers ubuntu 7.04 uses during install? like when booting live cd?
[03:30] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: where I get urban terror?
[03:30] <tominglis> leagris: but it doesn't play web movies very well at all
[03:30] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: google it.  5 seconds.
[03:30] <tominglis> leagris: neither kaffeine nor mplayer
[03:30] <eternaljoy> gejr: do do a search for what?
[03:30] <gejr> crazychicken: is that possible? must be one of the cheatcodes to pass to the kernel in that case ;o
[03:30] <tominglis> leagris: the bbc website laughs in its face
[03:30] <WaterHose> usser: How do I do that? Sorry for my ignorance.
[03:30] <hellblade> Mase: that's what I did with my kubuntu upgrade, but i got some small problems after the dist-upgrade which I had to manualy fix. If you know your way in package management go on

[03:31] <crazychicken> i dont know, is it not?
[03:31] <tominglis> leagris: you reckon vlc will do it aswell? do i need to uninstall the mplayer mozilla plugin?
[03:31] <ADminS> ANY idea http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20167/
[03:31] <leagris> tominglis, install mozilla-plugin-vlc or mplayerplug not boths
[03:31] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: lol! cant find it :P
[03:31] <crazychicken> from what i've read it seems there is some problem with some laptop video cards that wont let the installer work properly
[03:31] <deriick> hgdfsj
[03:31] <fabio__|> do you know any good software to setup a VPN server on Ubuntu?
[03:32] <Mase> hellblade: is it going to do anything aside from run apt-get dist-upgrade you think ?
[03:32] <Mase> i.e will it use apt ?
[03:32] <leagris> tominglis, you will need so flashplayer plugin as well as number of web videos are handled though flash.
[03:32] <usser> WaterHose: that i dont know i always used gui to do that
[03:32] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: You want one from column A and one from column B: http://www.urbanterror.net/page.php?6
[03:32] <Sjimmie> fabio__|: openvpn ?
[03:32] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: ok
[03:32] <Mase> fabio__|: openVPN is quite good
[03:32] <hellblade> Mase: no but I prefer aptitude, not apt-get
[03:32] <usser> WaterHose: try right clicking on the folder thaeres gotta be something about permissions there
[03:32] <gejr> crazychicken: you can try the cheatcode xdrv=nv
[03:33] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: then right click the executable and allow it to run as a program.
[03:33] <Lhademmor> Hi, I have a ThinkPad R51 and I've noticed that the Ctrl+1 to Ctrl+9 shortcuts that usually in Firefox is used to switch tabs doesn't work on Ubuntu. It does, however, work on XP. Shall I report it as a bug?
[03:33] <hellblade> eternaljoy: "glxinfo | grep direct" <- what does this show?
[03:33] <jovans> does intel graphics chipset works on feisty?
[03:33] <gejr> crazychicken: it works for pclinuxos..might be in ubuntu too
[03:33] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: then I will shoot you in the head with a giant gun.
[03:33] <usser> jovans: yes
[03:33] <Mase> jovans: yes
[03:33] <leperkhanz> :)
[03:33] <tominglis> leagris: yes i have flash 9 - need it for flex 2!
[03:33] <crazychicken> these "cheat codes" are just what you pass the kernel (like after hitting F6)?
[03:33] <eternaljoy> hellblade: direct rendering: Yes
[03:33] <jovans> and where can i get the driver for 3d?
[03:33] <bullgard4> jovans: yes.
[03:33] <gejr> crazychicken: yep
[03:33] <tominglis> leagris: it just seems that the mplayer plugin doesn't play realplayer and wmp files very well if at all
[03:33] <gejr> xdrv=nv
[03:34] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: You want one from column A and one from column B?  I dont get it :P
[03:34] <leperkhanz> anybody know how to give jackd realtime permission?
[03:34] <leagris> Mase, would you recommand openvpn as routed IP or as ethernet tunnel for use between hostell unsafe wifi connected laptop to a didacted server gateway ?
[03:34] <fabio__|> is it OpenVPN avaiable through apt-get ?
[03:34] <tominglis> leagris: it tries to open multiple instances of the same movie in konqi and then tries to play all of them
[03:34] <honeymonkey> ADminS yep, apt-cache search webmin gives no hits. It's not in any of the ubuntu repositories
[03:34] <Arry> hi, I get errors when running aplay -l, any ideas?
[03:34] <gejr> crazychicken: that should load the opensource nvidia driver...it's crap, but better than vesa :)
[03:34] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: you need the executable (column A), and the data files (column B)
[03:34] <Lhademmor> Did anyone manage to hear me?
[03:34] <leperkhanz> read that site!
[03:34] <gejr> usser: that's my experience, yes
[03:34] <leagris> tominglis, have a try with the VLC plugin. .Either way wmv9 depend on clused binary codecs.
[03:35] <leperkhanz> VLC works on a lot though.
[03:35] <gejr> usser: although to get the resolution you want you might need to "sudo apt-get install 915resolution" and restart X
[03:35] <honeymonkey> you could check http://www.us.debian.org/distrib/packages and see if it's there
[03:35] <Mase> leagris: yes
[03:35] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: ioUrbanTerror_1.0.zip ?
[03:35] <leperkhanz> yes, and the one on the right too.
[03:35] <leperkhanz> read the site!
[03:35] <Mase> leagris: for the IP, if you just want to tunnel
[03:35] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: ok
[03:35] <Mase> leagris: i'd use ssh
[03:35] <Mase> simpler
[03:36] <|ericsson|> I can't explain my problem really, but if you look here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20169/ and tell me what is going on ;)
[03:36] <Lhademmor> apparently not
[03:36] <usser> gejr: oh ok
[03:36] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: damn, broken link
[03:36] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: wait, not the zip!
[03:36] <leperkhanz> you want the linux one!
[03:36] <gejr> usser: was that what you wanted? a resolution change?
[03:36] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: the FSK405: windows | linux/mac (USA) ?
[03:36] <leagris> Mase, I'd like to hav it as default gateway for internet access as I consider these free wifi as very unsafe and sometimes using spying proxies.
[03:36] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: I clicked on linux, and its a broken link
[03:36] <hellblade> I gtg peeps. cya
[03:36] <eternaljoy> hellblade: cheers
[03:37] <leperkhanz> nm, the linux one is a zip.
[03:37] <leperkhanz> try a diff mirror.  that's why there's a list of 6.
[03:37] <|ericsson|> The entry through putty becomes in finnish and installs more packages then the one I enter directly on the server
[03:37] <Mase> leagris: yeh well then VPN away. Just make sure it's encrypted
[03:37] <leperkhanz> then read the install guide at the bottom.
[03:37] <leperkhanz> after you get both files.
[03:37] <honeymonkey> |ericsson| that seems hindu to me
[03:37] <usser> gejr: nah i just wanted to know if i have to install a proprietary driver for intel
[03:37] <|ericsson|> honeymonkey: same here ;)
[03:37] <gejr> usser: ok:)
[03:37] <Mase> usser: nope
[03:38] <leagris> Mase, I have openVPN servie to run on debian server side and on Ubuntu feisty on laptop. Are there any version issues I must consider?
[03:38] <honeymonkey> is there a windows putty client?
[03:38] <usser> Mase, gejr: thanks =)
[03:38] <leperkhanz> how about unlocking memory?  Anyone know how to do that?
[03:38] <gejr> honeymonkey: yes.
[03:38] <crazychicken> honeymonkey: yup
[03:38] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: the UrbanTerror40_full.zip?
[03:38] <honeymonkey>  |ericsson| i mean, did you use it?
[03:38] <tominglis> leagris: thanks man i will try the vlc
[03:38] <gejr> honeymonkey: that couldn't have cost you much time to google up i guess:p
[03:38] <Mase> leagris: you just need a vpn client on your laptop....on the server side what ever comes with debian will be fine
[03:38] <ADminS> honeymonkey: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20170/
[03:39] <Mase> leagris: you only have simple needs by the sounds of  it so you will be fine
[03:39] <ADminS> honeymonkey: but when i do search no output
[03:39] <honeymonkey>  |ericsson| netstat -i
[03:39] <|ericsson|> honeymonkey: i haven't installed any of the suggested/recommended packages since I want to figure out WHY the putty enty wants to install all those extra packages..
[03:39] <ADminS> so i don't know how there is no output and why appears with tab!
[03:39] <leperkhanz> eternaljoy: yes, and the file on the right too.
[03:39] <leagris> Mase, An IP VPN is ok or should I try the ethernet VPN?
[03:40] <leperkhanz> then read the bottom of the page.  the install guide.
[03:40] <crazychicken> gejr - same problem
[03:40] <|ericsson|> honeymonkey: what am I looking for there?

[03:45] <kon> where do you change the modules that are being autoloaded?
[03:45] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: website says: Linux users also need updated BattlEye files if they use ioUrbanTerror
[03:45] <cdubya> !Feisty
[03:45] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) is the latest version of Ubuntu. Upgrading to Feisty: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades - Downloading: http://www.ubuntu.com/download - For BitTorrent downloads, see !Torrents
[03:45] <kon> or blacklist modules
[03:45] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: whats the BattlEye files?
[03:45] <leperkhanz> just don't go on battle eye servers... :)
[03:46] <leperkhanz> just do the non pb, non battle eye servers.
[03:46] <leperkhanz> it's brand new.  there aren't cheaters (yet) anyway.
[03:46] <honeymonkey> |ericsson| could it be the language? xkeyboard-config kinda jumps out at me
[03:46] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: what? LOL
[03:46] <cdubya> by the way, how stable is Feisty?
[03:46] <tidrion> cdubya: been stable for me so far
[03:47] <phy2> Depends what you tack on to it
[03:47] <leperkhanz> just select a server that is not punkbuster OR battle eye.
[03:47] <albert> hi, i have a question concerning x-startup. quite simply: it's very slow. is there some tuning possible?
[03:47] <leperkhanz> you don't need any extra files.
[03:47] <cdubya> heh, phy2, knew that was coming.....
[03:47] <leperkhanz> for now.
[03:47] <cdubya> should have specified my question
[03:47] <phy2> so sorry
[03:47] <cdubya> no problem....I should have been more specific
[03:47] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: are there many servers which are NOT  punkbuster OR battle eye?
[03:47] <leperkhanz> also, in game, try W, A, and D at the same time to run even faster.
[03:47] <leperkhanz> yes.
[03:48] <cdubya> anyone had Feisty break anything serious when upgrading?
[03:48] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: ok
[03:48] <tidrion> cdubya: not anything on my end
[03:48] <Sergo> 8-)
[03:48] <cdubya> kewl
[03:48] <eternaljoy> leperkhanz: so I can walk into you in the game? :)
[03:48] <cdubya> thanks.
[03:48] <honeymonkey> ADminS most likely all the webmin stuff is old apt meta garbage
[03:48] <tidrion> cdubya: I take that back, I can't get DVD's to play anymore even after following the instructions
[03:48] <leperkhanz> maybe, i'm not online atm. :D
[03:48] <cdubya> tidrion, ouch, that would be a must for me.....
[03:48] <|ericsson|> honeymonkey: I'm starting to suspect it's some kind of cache in the windows putty client that causes this, after all, we have quite a few servers here I switch between
[03:48] <cdubya> maybe I'll hold off a bit....
[03:49] <tidrion> cdubya: can still read them, just can't watch the movie
[03:49] <cdubya> Dapper still works great......
[03:49] <cdubya> :D
[03:49] <Lhademmor> Anyone: Is Pidgin in the reposteries?

[03:51] <Sergo> i think what windows xp is more "easy" than other linux distro, why i think so
[03:51] <Lhademmor> leperkhanz: Any idea when it'll be added?

[03:52] <Sergo> oh i know, xp use more less ram
[03:52] <CheshireViking> !pidgin | Lhademmor
[03:52] <ubotu> Lhademmor: 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
[03:52] <Lhademmor> ah
[03:52] <Zajjko_> Is there an actual fix for fan noise caused by an Ati-card on Ubuntu Dapper Drake?
[03:52] <honeymonkey> greasel libgtk-1.2-dev
[03:53] <Lhademmor> Okay then: Any ETA on feisty +1?
[03:53] <ADminS> honeymonkey ok Thanks
[03:53] <dr_willis> Zajjko_,  you meaning that the ati card's fan does not slow down when not needed - like it does in windows?
[03:53] <GigaClon> how can I get rhythmbox to stop opening when i plug in a device
[03:53] <CheshireViking> Lhademmor, about 6 months from fiesty release - October 07 i'd guess
[03:53] <Lhademmor> hm okay
[03:53] <greasel> honeymonkey: Have that too.
[03:54] <Zajjko_> dr_willis: amongst other things yes. It also revs up and down intermittently during low usage
[03:54] <nato70_> hi There... someone knows any good replace for flashplayer mozilla plugin for amd64?
[03:54] <honeymonkey> hmm
[03:54] <rysiek|pl> hi
[03:54] <Arry> right, pastebin of my aplay -l command results:
[03:54] <Arry> http://www.pastebin.ca/480864
[03:54] <usser> nato70_ u can use flashplugin with amd64
[03:54] <dr_willis> Zajjko_,  you have installed the fglrx drivers?
[03:54] <Zajjko_> dr_willis: yup
[03:55] <rysiek|pl> guys, is it possible to upgrade Ubuntu 6.10 to Ubuntu 7.04 WITHOUT net access and using only Kubuntu 7.04 cd?
[03:55] <eternaljoy> lep
[03:55] <honeymonkey> greasel: does it say libgtk-1.2.so.0. or libgtk-1.2.so.0
[03:55] <nato70_> uuser - hi there... yes i know... but i have to use the 32bit version right? and I would like to know if there is any alternative for 64
[03:55] <dr_willis> nato70_,  you do realize that you do NOT have to use the 64bit ubuntu disrto on an Amd64 cpu? you can use the 32bit ones.
[03:56] <Zajjko_> nato70_: it is even recommended to use the 32bit one
[03:56] <zenlinuxNH> Hi folks. I have a new Dell Latitude D620 that's having intermittent problems with the keyboard and mouse/trackpad freezing up on wake from suspend.
[03:56] <nato70_> really ?
[03:56] <zenlinuxNH> I've got it exhibiting the behavior *right now*, and am able to ssh into it.
[03:56] <nato70_> now I am frustrate!
[03:56] <zenlinuxNH> Does anyone have suggestions on what I could try to figure out what the problem is?
[03:57] <nato70_> so..... why they botther to compile the ubuntu 64?
[03:57] <dr_willis> nato70_,  yep - seen others that miss-understand how the 64bit vs 32bit works.
[03:57] <zenlinuxNH> It hasn't kernel paniced.
[03:57] <dr_willis> nato70_,  for SOME tools you gain a lot by going 64bit
[03:57] <Garnol> i want to burn the ubntu 7.04.iso on CD .. can i just instert the file on a blank CD ??
[03:57] <usser> nato70_ well i suppose u can use gnash
[03:57] <eternaljoy> has anyone got Urban Terror to run on Ubuntu?
[03:57] <usser> nato70_ never tried it though
[03:57] <dr_willis> nato70_,  i always use the 32bit disrtos on all my 64bit machines.
[03:57] <greasel> honeymonkey: the message I get is "error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-1.2.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[03:57] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  yep. On my other machine.
[03:57] <usser> dr_willis: whats the point in having 64bit machine then??
[03:57] <Garnol> i want to burn the ubntu 7.04.iso on CD .. can i just instert the file on a blank CD ??
[03:58] <nato70_> dr_willis - I am so frustrate now...
[03:58] <phy2> *wonders why support for 64bit remains elusive
[03:58] <dr_willis> usser,   whats the point in having a pc. :)
[03:58] <nato70_> usser - I heard about gnash, but it seems that doenst work in sites like youtube (ie)
[03:58] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: I dl 2 files. extracted them into 1 folder.  And click on the exectuable file, but nothing happens
[03:58] <CheshireViking> Garnol, are you running ubuntu now? I use K3b to burn iso's to a cd
[03:58] <dr_willis> 64bit is slowly gainging ground. i imagine in a nother year. it will be the perfered system.
[03:58] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: any ideas?
[03:59] <usser> dr_willis: heh
[03:59] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  use the shell. not clicking.. read the install docs at their homepage.
[03:59] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: their install docs only for Window users
[03:59] <usser> nato70_ then u only choice is 32bit flash with nspluginwrapper
[03:59] <Garnol> CheshireViking: i now just try the File Browser opten (write Disk) .. then appears a popup, where you can say : burn as image CD ...
[03:59] <usser> nato70_ or a 32bit firefox
[03:59] <Garnol> i will try that
[03:59] <honeymonkey> greasel what is the output of slocate libgtk-1.2.so.0
[04:00] <leagris> dr_willis, what's the point in having anyghing you don't "realy" need. BTW. At times, 64Procs are wise choise for 32apps performance wise.
[04:00] <CheshireViking> Garnol, that sounds like it should do it
[04:00] <Garnol> i thought so
[04:00] <nato70_> dr_willis - so..... you do have a 64 bit processor with a 32 bit OS.... did you ever try the ubuntu 64 ?
[04:00] <Kubuntu> Where can I find linux drivers?
[04:00] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  the web site i recall said install the openquake3 stuff to a dir.. then unzup their package to the same dir.
[04:00] <Kubuntu> Canon cp 710, I need a driver? Where?
[04:00] <dr_willis> nato70_,  yep. a year or so ago.. had issues with java and flash and other things..
[04:00] <SlimeyPete> Kubuntu: in adept/synaptic, usually - or by using google.
[04:00] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: no no!   I dont have openquake3
[04:01] <nato70_> usser - thank you mate !
[04:01] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: http://www.urbanterror.net/page.php?6
[04:01] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  time to go to the web site ane reread their docs. :)
[04:01] <nato70_> dr_willis - thank you for your help !
[04:01] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: their install docs only for Window users
[04:01] <usser> nato70_ dont listen to him, java is working in ubuntu 64 now, and flash is easy to set up, there's no reason to stay on 32bit
[04:01] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  i recall they were a bit vage on where to unzip the things to
[04:01] <greasel> honeymonkey: Nothing at all.
[04:01] <leagris> nato70_, tested boths Ubuntu64 and Ubuntu32 on AMD64 3500+. Well, for anyghing desktop related, it got a 15% performance boost and a 100% annoyance boost for multimedia, games, java, updatability... ;p
[04:02] <nato70_> usser - i guess so... I will not give up... :)
[04:02] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  aparently I found  the instructions to download/unzip the openquake stuff, and then download/unzip the actual UT game. :)
[04:02] <honeymonkey> greasel you have sudo slocate -u  ?
[04:02] <honeymonkey> right?
[04:02] <nato70_> leagris - did you make the test using the latest ubuntu version (7.04) ?
[04:02] <honeymonkey> sudo slocate -u
[04:03] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: I dont have the actual game
[04:03] <SpaceBass> anyone have a recommendation for a way to display a webpage on my desktop?
[04:03] <leagris> nato70_, did it with dapper.
[04:03] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: i only have those 2 zip files
[04:03] <sercik> hi
[04:03] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  the ioopenquake thing IS the first part of the game
[04:03] <dr_willis> Download and run the ioUrbanTerror installer and then the Urban Terror Installer.
[04:04] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: osry I dont understand
[04:04] <nato70_> leagris - well... I believe it got better now... dont you ?
[04:04] <dr_willis> thats all i did. :)
[04:04] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: but when I try to run ioUrbanTerror installer , nothing happens
[04:04] <nato70_> leagris - 12 months in software is a life time !
[04:04] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  you 'clicking' on it arent you?
[04:04] <greasel> honeymonkey: that does nothing.
[04:04] <sercik> please someone could point me to a new guide to install compiz on ubuntu dapper?
[04:04] <Kubuntu> I can't find driver for canon cp 710, anyone know where it is?
[04:04] <Arry> can someone help with my sound problem please?
[04:05] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: i type: ./ioUrbanTerror.i386
[04:05] <leagris> nato70_, I which it is but, past experiences makes me not beleave in miracles.
[04:05] <nato70_> leagris - :)
[04:05] <honeymonkey> it builds the slocate database
[04:05] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: nothing happens. only says: Sys_Error: Couldn't load default.cfg
[04:05] <honeymonkey> if you don't have it built it won't find anything
[04:05] <Kubuntu> Arry don't ask if anuone can help you, jsut ask the question and if somebody can answer they will.
[04:05] <honeymonkey> so you build it with sudo slocate -u
[04:05] <sercik> i have downgraded to dapper because i con't like feisty and i'm not sure if onlyne guide are updated.. with the latest nvidia driver is needed to install XGl o aiglx?
[04:06] <nato70_> sercik - what problems you got with feisty ?
[04:06] <nato70_> sercik - what about edgy?
[04:06] <sercik> very slow
[04:06] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  there NOT really an 'installer' ya just install by putting the contsnts of both those zip files in the same dir
[04:06] <honeymonkey> now, greasel, the reason is this: either a) the file is in your system but the permissions (or something else) are fudged or b) the file isn't in your system
[04:06] <tanath> sercik, old computer?
[04:06] <nato70_> sercik - what computer do you have ?
[04:07] <leagris> nato70_, as long as you rely on binary software with 32bit support only, workaround on mixed 32/64bit environment is a pain.
[04:07] <sercik> and my soundcard doesn't work properly the last time i had this impression was with FC4
[04:07] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: I did that.  I unzip both files into same folder.
[04:07] <sercik> is not old
[04:07] <matux> I have upgrade my Ubuntu, and it has upgrade my kernel, but i still see version 6.10 why?
[04:07] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: and then waht I do?
[04:07] <greasel> honeymonkey: Oh, now I see. Output for slocate libgtk-1.2.so.0 is "/usr/lib/libgtk-1.2.so.0.9.1  /usr/lib/libgtk-1.2.so.0"
[04:07] <sercik> athlon  64 3500+ with 2x512 ddr 2-2-5-2
[04:07] <dr_willis> i just cd'd to one of the dirs and ran the game
[04:07] <dr_willis> downloading the files again to check.
[04:08] <dr_willis> which is going to take an hr.. sigh
[04:08] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: thanks
[04:08] <eternaljoy> :(
[04:08] <nato70_> matux - because 6.10 is your distro version... not your kernel version... to see your currently kernel versio, open your terminal and type : uname -r
[04:08] <leagris> nato70_, a pain not woth the 15% performance boost. I'd only recommand 64bits for dedicated server use. Especially huge databases and RAM requirements.
[04:08] <honeymonkey> greasel libgtk1.2-dbg
[04:08] <dr_willis> i cd'd to the larger games dir i think and ran that game
[04:08] <matux> Is there a way to upgrade my distro version
[04:08] <honeymonkey> hmm, so it is there and something is fudged
[04:09] <nato70_> leagris - I see your point... and I fully agree
[04:09] <Arry> does anyone know why my aplay -l results gives this output : http://pastebin.ca/480880.  But the alsa-info.sh script gives a different output: http://pastebin.ca/480874. ?
[04:09] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: i cant figure it out :P
[04:09] <sercik> please a little help to a guide to install compiz on dapper
[04:09] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  let me go to my other machine
[04:09] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: how did you run the game? what yuou type?
[04:09] <eternaljoy> dr_willis: ty
[04:09] <dr_willis> eternaljoy,  since its not on this one
[04:09] <matux> Is there a way to upgrade my distro version, do I have to dowload the install disk to upgrade my distro?
[04:10] <CheshireViking> !upgrade | matux
[04:10] <ubotu> matux: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[04:10] <greasel> Didn't have -dbg, ePSXe still not working, though.
[04:10] <matux> thanks a lot!!!
[04:10] <effie_jayx> is nvu still on the repos
[04:10] <nato70_> sercik - what video board do you have ?
[04:10] <effie_jayx> ?
[04:11] <leagris> !nvu
[04:11] <ubotu> nvu is a WYSIWYG and code dual-function HTML editor for easily creating web pages.  The original developer is working on a full rewrite; meanwhile, another is doing bugfixes.

[04:12] <Kubuntu> Where can I find the Canon drivers?
[04:13] <sercik> no i don't want beryl it is a fork or compiz and i have red very bad of it
[04:13] <honeymonkey> greasel have you read http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=394097
[04:13] <honeymonkey> ?
[04:13] <sercik> and then beryl is for kubuntu for ubuntu is better compiz
[04:14] <eternaljoy> how do I  shut down Beryl?
[04:14] <nato70_> sercik - both aren't stable my friend
[04:14] <joumetal> Kubuntu What Canon hardware do you have?
[04:14] <nato70_> sercik - beryl is for ubuntu (some people make it run in kde)...
[04:14] <eternaljoy> how do I kill Beryl?
[04:14] <Kubuntu> Is Kubuntu a LSB-3.2-compliant Linux distribution?
[04:15] <Ruccus> ubuntu is for humans
[04:15] <nato70_> sercik - i had it installed quite for while... but i unistalled...
[04:15] <sercik> no nato70_ sorry but compia is better and more stable
[04:15] <Kubuntu> I have selphy cp 710-.
[04:15] <nato70_> sercik - good luck mate... (you will need!) :)
[04:15] <greasel> honeymonkey: Have not, will look at it now. Thank you for your time.
[04:16] <Lhademmor> Why does Ubuntu recommend I don't install aMule?
[04:16] <bullgard4> What is 'kernel code' The source code of the Ubuntu kernel? What is its filename?
[04:17] <nato70_> sercik - anyway, it's always nice to hear another opinions: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=401944
[04:17] <bullgard4> Was versteht man unter 'Kernel-Code'? Den Sourcecode des Ubuntu-Kernels? Welchen Dateinamen hat er?
[04:18] <Kubuntu> Is it possibole that beryl improves my gaming?
[04:18] <mattwalston> anyone have much experience with directory services for Linux?
[04:18] <honeymonkey> Kubuntu, doubtful. It will eat up vram
[04:18] <honeymonkey> and ram
[04:19] <honeymonkey> and just in general slow everything down. but it looks really nice.
[04:19] <Kubuntu> How should I install a rpm file?
[04:19] <mattwalston> Kubuntu, convert with alien
[04:19] <mattwalston> Kubuntu, http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2005/09/23/installing-using-an-rpm-file/
[04:19] <Kubuntu> ailen says hostname: Unknown host, what us wring?
[04:19] <Dr_Willis_Home> for those wantign to see my "OpenTerror" game directory layout its here ---->  http://pastebin.ca/480900
[04:20] <Lhademmor> Oops, I accidentally rated my own bug as "Confirmed"....
[04:20] <CheshireViking> sercik, there's a lot of rumours & reports that beryl & compiz are going to merge, so they'll end up as the same project
[04:21] <honeymonkey> what else is needed after apt-get install openssh-server for the server to work?
[04:22] <leagris> Kubuntu, I found Beryl helping on running WoW with Cedega on gnome Because switching desktop from the full screen game and gnome hotkeys don't work. But with Beryl, all I have to do is put the mouse on right top most corner and voila the 3D application switcher BTW it is a sideband enhancment and not 3D related
[04:23] <arch_> how do I boot from a CD?
[04:23] <Dr_Willis_Home> honeymonkey,  start the service (it may of allready started) try ssh localhost, see if it works
[04:23] <mattwalston> arch_, enable it as the first boot device in bios
[04:23] <mattwalston> arch_, some bios's also let you press escape to select
[04:24] <honeymonkey> thx Dr_Willis_Home, so that's it?
[04:24] <leagris> honeymonkey, something like /etc/init.d/openssh start (only after installation. Next system start will lauch openssh server).
[04:24] <FunnyLookinHat> arch_, sup dude
[04:24] <Dr_Willis_Home> honeymonkey,  depends on what you want to do. :) i always enable X forarding in the ssh configs by default also.
[04:25] <honeymonkey> what should i for if i keep getting connection refused?
[04:25] <leagris> honeymonkey, looking if the sshd is running
[04:25] <Dr_Willis_Home> honeymonkey,  check the logs be sure its running (thus the localhost test)
[04:25] <crazychicken> ok guys i got more specific info now
[04:25] <crazychicken> i turned off "quiet splash"
[04:26] <crazychicken> and now i get
[04:26] <crazychicken> Starting GNOME Display Manager... FAIL
[04:26] <honeymonkey> can you imagine anyway in which i could do those things remotely?
[04:26] <Dr_Willis_Home> crazychicken,  you got kde/kubuntu installed?
[04:26] <joumetal> Kubuntu, openprinting.org says your selphy cp 710- works mostly. Feisty does have gutenprint driver already.
[04:26] <crazychicken> i'm just trying to install ubuntu 7.04
[04:26] <leagris> crazychicken, fgrep EE /var/log/X11/xorg0.log | less will show you
[04:28] <crazychicken> leagris: how do i get to a prompt?
[04:28] <Lr5> crazychicken: alt+f2 I believe
[04:28] <leagris> honeymonkey, no ssh no safe remote. I used a seral link and enable terminal, console on it for a home made server with no gfx card at all. But is is realy oldscool and heavy geeky to do so ;D
[04:29] <crazychicken> leagris: that fgrep command didn't do anything
[04:29] <multidex> Hi all - is there something similar to the hosts file in windows that i can clear out
[04:29] <leagris> crazychicken, no ssh, no remote prompt. You have to hookup a screen and keyboard
[04:29] <crazychicken> it output several blank lines
[04:29] <mati> hi
[04:30] <leagris> crazychicken, fgrep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log | less sorry
[04:30] <loco_aullador> Hi, anyone knows what process is related to de secure.log? i cant see it, and i'd like to know if i have to install a particular aplication to see it

[04:31] <crazychicken> leagris: cannot open device /dev/input/wacom
[04:31] <Andeh> Hello
[04:31] <kaolti> can anyone help me solve this error please?debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process
[04:32] <Andeh> I have a question
[04:32] <leagris> crazychicken, nothing significant here, look furter errors
[04:32] <crazychicken> that's the only thing that is an error
[04:32] <leagris> crazychicken, so X launch ?
[04:33] <Xenocide> can anyone help me with setting up wireless on a commandline only system?
[04:33] <Andeh> I want to reinstall ubuntu (i messed lots of stuff up lol) on ReiserFS. I already backed up my home folder.
[04:33] <Andeh> If i just copy my home folder back after installing, will that account be root?
[04:33] <dyrne> Xenocide: is the device showing up?
[04:33] <crazychicken> when i say startx
[04:33] <Xenocide> i have not put it in yet, but im just wondering what file i need to modify
[04:33] <crazychicken> it says "FreeFontPath : FPE "/usr/share/fonts/X11/misc" refcount is 2, shoudl be 1; fixing"
[04:33] <crazychicken> and quits
[04:33] <dyrne> Xenocide: nothing really if it works.
[04:33] <dyrne> Xenocide: out of the box i mean
[04:34] <Xenocide> well how do i select and access point
[04:34] <Xenocide> in commandline
[04:34] <Andeh> If i just copy my home folder back after installing, will that account become root?
[04:34] <leagris> crazychicken, tryes with just X if it goes to a thin checkered pattern background with a X crossed cursor, then X works ok. You can exit by pressing CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE
[04:34] <sercik> which is the best kernel for an athlon 64 (ubuntu 32 bit)?
[04:34] <buz> is there any way to run ubuntu live cds in KVM on Intel CPUs?
[04:34] <dyrne> Xenocide: to scan for networks 'iwlist ath0 scan'  where ath0 is your wireless device
[04:34] <crazychicken> yea it does that
[04:34] <Andeh> Also, is there a list of installed applications somewhere, so i can just apt-get all of them after installing?
[04:35] <Andeh> *reinstalling ubuntu
[04:35] <dyrne> Xenocide: to configure 'sudo iwconfig ath0 essid networkname'   and to connect: 'sudo dhclient ath0'
[04:35] <Xenocide> thanks
[04:35] <crazychicken> so then why doesn't the install work?
[04:35] <kaolti> can anyone help me solve this error please?debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process
[04:35] <dyrne> Xenocide: ifconfig -a will show all devices ifconfig will show the devices that are up. if your device isnt up do 'sudo ifconfig ath0 up'
[04:36] <Andeh> If i REINSTALL ubuntu, and copy my homefolder back, will i be able to login normally??
[04:36] <usser> Andeh: yes
[04:37] <nuu> kaolti: lsof | grep config.dat
[04:37] <nuu> that way you can try to figure out which process locks the file
[04:37] <usser> Andeh: i did that when upgraded from suse to ubuntu =)
[04:37] <Andeh> usser: but it will not change the Root account settings?
[04:37] <jjchico> kaolti: try "lsof | grep config.dat". this will show what process is using config.dat. Then kill the process (kill process_id).
[04:37] <Dr_Willis_Home> Andeh,  i normally keep my /home on its own partition. it works for me that way Simler to whatyou are doing.
[04:37] <Andeh> usser: Wow. Very compativle.
[04:37] <usser> Andeh: as long as u give the same user name as it was before everything should be fine'
[04:37] <leagris> crazychicken, you can look at the file /var/log/gdm/:0.log for problems related to starting gdm the gnomd X session login manager.
[04:37] <Dr_Willis_Home> Andeh,  ive had issued with some newer versions of kde/gnome not likingthe old home dir kde/gnome settings. but thats not much of an issue any more
[04:38] <kaolti> nuu:doesnt show anything
[04:38] <kaolti> jjchico: doesnt show anything
[04:38] <usser> Andeh: u may change the user name and then just copy the contents of your old /home to a new one
[04:38] <tomee> hello
[04:38] <crazychicken> leagris: my /var/log/gdm folder is empty
[04:38] <Andeh> Ok, the problem might be that this version that i want to reinstall is UPDATED, so if i copy the home partit of an UPDATED ubuntu, will it work with a cd i just got Shipped?
[04:39] <Assassyn> WoW
[04:39] <Assassyn> so many ubuntu lovers
[04:39] <Assassyn> :P
[04:39] <usser> Andeh: yes
[04:39] <Andeh> Or will i need to update it after installing? That would work
[04:39] <Andeh> ok thanks
[04:39] <Andeh> One last question
[04:39] <Kal_Torak> Yo, Linux newb here.  I just installed Ubuntu, and after defeating the lousy installer which kept freezing on me, I tried rebooting and got a Grub error.  Error 21.
[04:39] <leagris> crazychicken, is ther gdm installed ?
[04:39] <Andeh> Is there a way to backup a list of all the installed aps/packages and install all of them elsewhere?
[04:39] <Andeh> That would be awesome :D
[04:39] <CheshireViking> Andeh,  is this the sort of thing you're looking for http://www.ubuntugeek.com/clone-your-ubuntu-installation.html
[04:40] <crazychicken> what do you mean? i haven't done anything besides try to boot the live cd
[04:40] <Andeh> Maybe.. i'll read
[04:40] <leagris> crazychicken, oh, sorry
[04:40] <kaolti> jjchico: any ideas?
[04:40] <CheshireViking> Andeh, there might be an easier way of doing this, i know somebody has posted instructions in the channel on how to do what you're asking
[04:40] <calin> I cannot set up a pppoe connection on Ubuntu 7.04. I am trying different approaches for 2 days now (i ran out of Ubuntu help and forums)... any ideas
[04:41] <leagris> crazychicken, did you try starting with different resolutions/ locales/ safe graphic mode ?
[04:41] <honeymonkey> CheshireViking cool! thx
[04:41] <tomee> how can i see the code like slackware when linux boot??
[04:41] <crazychicken> yup - same problem
[04:41] <Andeh> Oh cool...
[04:41] <sercik> calin: do you have a ethernet modem?
[04:41] <leagris> crazychicken, did you check the MD6SUM of the install CD is ok ?
[04:41] <bykte> does ubuntu still install crap along with the default installation?
[04:41] <leagris> crazychicken, MD5SUM sorry
[04:41] <crazychicken> i've installed it on 2 other machines from the same cd
[04:41] <Pici> tomee: remove the quiet and splash arguments from your kernel line in GRUB
[04:42] <calin> sercik: it's a fiberlink connection going through the network socket
[04:42] <Kal_Torak> bykte,  depends on what you mean by crap
[04:42] <leagris> crazychicken, can you tray /etc/ini.d/gdm start and tell if you see some errors ?
[04:42] <bykte> Kal_Torak, stuff/apps that i dont use..
[04:42] <Kal_Torak> Yes.
[04:42] <Kal_Torak> It installs a selection of games and utilities.
[04:42] <Andeh> I just want to install ubuntu on reiserFS. I asked if i can just convert but no, and copying it onto a reiserFS would, apparently, require even more messing around and they said the easiest way would be just to backup /home and reinstall ubuntu on ReiserFS, then restore /home.
[04:43] <bykte> i want a simplified ubuntu with the minimals if possible.. just wondering if its possible to do that
[04:43] <ice9> who is using freenx here
[04:43] <Andeh> And this method of installing packages looks easy
[04:43] <bykte> http/ftp/smtp service etc etc removed..
[04:43] <crazychicken> segmentation fault (core dumped)
[04:43] <sercik> i need help to upgrade kernel i see many kernel under synaptic
[04:43] <Kal_Torak> Eh, I don't know if you can get a distro that stripped down.
[04:43] <tomee> how can i see the code like slackware when my ubuntu boots???
[04:43] <neighborlee> bykte: imo, by far ubuntu is the most thoughtful and effective distro out there as during install not only does it mount windows partitions it also brings over your windows desktop background which I think is rather kewl ;)...and based on debian and being a livecd-installer it is rather 'light' on install yes ;)
[04:43] <crazychicken> or if i do ./gdm start
[04:44] <kaolti> can anyone help me solve this error please?debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process. lsof | grep config.dat gives no results
[04:44] <leagris> crazychicken, ok at least we know now gdm crash at software level due to unknown bug
[04:44] <crazychicken> i just get the same Starting GNOME Display Manager fail
[04:44] <usser> Andeh: but the downloaded apps are in /var/cache/apt/archives

[04:49] <Andeh> Ok, one more question, when i was on the live cd a few mins ago, i was browsing my linux hDD and went in my home folder. A lot of the folders inside told me i didnt have permission to acces them. What's this and does this mean i can still just copy over my home folder?
[04:49] <neighborlee> Kal_Torak: ahh ok well I dont know then..are you positive that drive has no problems ???
[04:49] <Kal_Torak> Pretty sure.
[04:49] <leagris> crazychicken, may be you can avoid gdm crash and launch startx gnome-session or X gnome-session directly

[04:51] <Andeh> DavidProck1981: Ok, i copied my /home to my NTFS external drive. Is the permissions problem gone now?

[04:56] <dyrne> mplayer for some reason is in multiverse
[04:56] <Andeh> If i want to reinstall ubuntu on ReiserFS and move my /home to a new partition will i need to be on the live CD?
[04:56] <Andeh> And also, if so, the live CD complains about permissions so will i need to do a 'sudo chmod 777 /home'. Is this command right?
[04:56] <Yggdrasil> daedra did you enabel all the repos ?
[04:56] <Kyral_Laptop> Andeh: yah you'll have to be in Live mode
[04:57] <daedra> YES
[04:57] <Assassyn> is ubuntu good for a file server?
[04:57] <kaolti> leagris: i can just use kill to stop the prog?
[04:57] <Kyral_Laptop> Andeh: and don't go running that chmod
[04:57] <Kyral_Laptop> Andeh: Just switch to root on the Live
[04:57] <neverblue> morning
[04:57] <Yggdrasil> sudo apt-cache search mplayer
[04:57] <Yggdrasil> ?
[04:57] <Andeh> Oh, thanks!
[04:57] <Kyral_Laptop> Yggdrasil: You don't need sudo to use apt-cache
[04:57] <daedra> wait no what is multiverse?
[04:57] <dyrne> Assassyn: yes but id hesitate on fiesty. ive had problems with disk performance. dapper would be a good choice though
[04:57] <daedra> ive got universe and restricted
[04:57] <Yggdrasil> oh
[04:57] <Andeh> Excellent
[04:58] <Assassyn> dapper?
[04:58] <Andeh> So
[04:58] <Yggdrasil> ok then apt-cache search mplayer
[04:58] <Kyral_Laptop> daedra: Multiverse is basically Ubuntu's answer to Debian's Non-Free repo
[04:58] <crazychicken> leagris: X gnome-session says unrecognized option
[04:58] <dyrne> Assassyn: test livecd 6.06 i believe. its the stable long term support version
[04:58] <usr13> I have mounted volumes that show on my Gnome Desktop, (when mounted).  How can I change the name of one of them?
[04:58] <Remot1> Software index is broken - error is there a simple fix -please
[04:58] <leagris> kaolti, If the program is stick yes although it is an emergency solution. May emerge more problems that need fixing the configuration database for dbs.
[04:58] <crazychicken> and startx gnome-session quits with the same font error from before
[04:58] <daedra> Kyral_Laptop: got the line for me to edit into /etc/apt/sources.list (im using feisty)?
[04:58] <dyrne> Assassyn: you can test feisty livecd but if you do 'hpdarm -tT /dev/hda' or whatever i bet the results will be worse in feisty
[04:59] <Andeh> I want to reinstall ubuntu on a ReiserFS partition, and move my /home to a new partition while doing so.

[04:59] <elementz> tach allerseits

[04:59] <usr13> Just wondering how these icons appear on the Desktop.  Where do they come from?
[04:59] <kaolti> leagris: dunno but i always get this error, after clean restart even
[04:59] <crazychicken> startx gnome-session gives that font error
[04:59] <cblack0> I want to use apt-get to download the binary (not source) .deb files for a package I already have installed. I have tried: apt-get -d --force-yes install package with no luck. Does anyone have any tips?
[05:00] <baadnwz> can anyone help me with nvraid & dmraid , i have ubuntu installed on a ide disk and i cant mount my raid array
[05:00] <Assassyn> dyrne
[05:00] <Assassyn> can i pm you?
[05:00] <leagris> cblack0, apt-get install --reinstall package
[05:00] <crazychicken> what other commands can i give the kernel to boot the install in some simpler way?
[05:00] <Yggdrasil> daedra did you do apt-get update ?
[05:00] <cblack0> leagris, adding in the -d flag to just dl I assume?
[05:00] <Andeh> Wait a second, in the Live CD Installer how do i tell it that my /Home is on a seperate partition??
[05:00] <shirish> guys if I want to unhide the menu, should I comment #hiddenmenu or uncomment hidden menu in /boot/grub/menu.lst ?
[05:00] <Super_Cat_Frog> hi - does anybody know where i can get a x86 deb of thunderbird 2?
[05:00] <daedra> Yggdrasil: got it nevermind
[05:00] <Grummus> hauks, search the wine appdb http://appdb.winehq.com
[05:00] <cblack0> leagris, I don't want to actually change the local system at all in terms of installation, just download the .deb to put it on a cd
[05:00] <chimaera> whats the difference between x.org and xfree86
[05:01] <Yggdrasil> hello guys, im about to perform a reinstallation and ive backup up my /home folder is there any other thing that i might want to back up before i do this ?
[05:01] <Yggdrasil> and gals
[05:01] <Andeh> Super_Cat_Frog: I would compile it from source, i dont know where/if there is a deb.
[05:01] <cblack0> chimaera, xfree86 is older, the default X kind of changed to xorg. Mostly the same code but all new stuff comes from xorg (vast simplification)
[05:01] <Andeh> I will reboot into live cd now, bye!!!
[05:01] <cblack0> Yggdrasil, I'd back up /etc
[05:02] <cblack0> Yggdrasil, it is small and could come in handy
[05:02] <Yggdrasil> hmm
[05:02] <Yggdrasil> intersting
[05:02] <Yggdrasil> ok
[05:02] <chimaera> cblack0: ic thanks
[05:02] <dyrne> Assassyn: im at work you might not get a quick response
[05:02] <shirish> also xfree86 is is more propreitory, while x.org is gpl'ed fully
[05:02] <cblack0> Yggdrasil, just for reference really, not to copy it back. Just to check against if something isn't working or copy back selected configs maybe
[05:02] <Yggdrasil> uh huh good idea, thats the sort of input i was looking for
[05:02] <shirish> andeh: you can do ctrl+alt+f1-f6 and from the command prompt
[05:03] <Yggdrasil> hekcm aybe /usr for that case ?
[05:03] <shirish> andeh: do an fdisk -l it will show you your hdd partitions
[05:03] <chimaera> is virtualbox performance better than vmware?
[05:03] <chimaera> i tried both and vmware is alot slower
[05:03] <cblack0> Yggdrasil, nah, /usr is all installed software which will get reinstalled. No config or user data in there.
[05:03] <chimaera> or did i do something wrong
[05:03] <cblack0> can't hurt, but I doubt you'd use it
[05:03] <crazychicken> leagris: i made another cd and it worked fine...
[05:03] <crazychicken> sorry for the trouble
[05:03] <Yggdrasil> ok
[05:03] <Yggdrasil> great thanks
[05:03] <crazychicken> not sure what happened to my cd since yesterday....
[05:04] <Yggdrasil> dam, im on a t1 and the ubuntu cd is stillonly 82k/s
[05:04] <leagris> crazychicken, :)
[05:04] <Yggdrasil> :(
[05:04] <cblack0> Yggdrasil, if you compiled some stuff by hand in /usr maybe back that up, if it all just came from a regular install just /home and /etc is usually fine. Maybe /var if you want to retain logs
[05:04] <shirish> Yggdrasil: are u on the .torrent or from the server?
[05:04] <crazychicken> one quick thing though
[05:04] <Yggdrasil> cblack0 yes compiled stuff
[05:04] <crazychicken> when giving the kernel options
[05:04] <crazychicken> there is -- at the end of the line
[05:04] <Yggdrasil> but nothing i dont think i can live w/o actualy
[05:04] <crazychicken> do the commands go before or after those? or can i delete them all together
[05:05] <leagris> crazychicken, failing CD.. God damn these media type are usafe for backups ;D
[05:05] <shirish> can anyone tell me how I can unhide the menu from grub menu in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:05] <Super_Cat_Frog> does anyboy have an ftp server i could upload my thunderbird deb to, since im going to bother making one?

[05:11] <crazychicken> ok guys - one more thing
[05:11] <shirish> PriceChild: is that so, I remember vividly some guy giving his repostory to add for the debug packages
[05:11] <crazychicken> resizing an NTFS partition always gives me issues - i defrag first, but still i get
[05:11] <shirish> if it has been merged that's good then
[05:12] <crazychicken> "the following operation could not be applied to the disk"
[05:12] <Karotte> does the ubuntu kernels still prevent root access to /proc/kcore?
[05:12] <gop> Dr_Willis_Home,  I installed codec then audicious but still no mp3 support
[05:12] <PriceChild> dv5237, lvm makes it easy to move partitions around, resize, expand onto more discs

[05:12] <Dr_Willis_Home> gop,  its working here.

[05:16] <PriceChild> Jchord, hey
[05:16] <corr> anyone here using dual monitors on a laptop in ubuntu
[05:16] <Toma-> !fixres > Endlessguitar
[05:16] <PriceChild> Jchord, you can't mount /dev/sda
[05:16] <SlimeyPete> Endlessguitar: use the Restricted Hardware Manager (it's in one of the menus) to install your graphics drivers.
[05:16] <Jchord> corect
[05:16] <shirish> PriceChild: I have a query, I have done it quite a few times but this time stumped, to see the GRUB menu by default, should #hiddenmenu be uncommented or not in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[05:16] <Jchord> server ubuntu
[05:16] <corr> im attempting to get the windows "dualview" look.. one main monitor, and then a spare monitor that I can drag stuff over to.. Twinview duplicates windows on both monitors..
[05:16] <PriceChild> Jchord, you need to do /dev/sda2 or something
[05:16] <usr13> Can anyone tell me how names are chosen for mounted devices when they appear on the desktop?  (Say when you plug in a Kingston USB memory stick; An icon appears on the desktop with the name "Kingston".)
[05:16] <Jchord> ohhh DOH!!
[05:16] <Endlessguitar> hmm
[05:17] <Jchord> wow
[05:17] <Endlessguitar> okej
[05:17] <Endlessguitar> slimeypete
[05:17] <Jchord> thanks
[05:17] <PriceChild> Jchord, sda refers to disk sda2 refers to partition 2 on disk a :)
[05:17] <usr13> How is that name determined.
[05:17] <corr> hm nm, got it :)
[05:17] <Endlessguitar> can you navigate me or remote me please?
[05:17] <Endlessguitar> should be nice
[05:17] <Toma-> usr13: basically, it will name it by what device number it is.
[05:17] <Jchord> ya i knew that i just forgot
[05:17] <PriceChild> usr13, that's just the label of the partition afaik
[05:17] <Jchord> doh!
[05:17] <Toma-> usr13: not by what brand it is
[05:18] <PriceChild> Toma-, unless it has a label
[05:18] <Endlessguitar> slimeypete
[05:18] <SlimeyPete> Endlessguitar: sorry, I don't have an Ubuntu box here (I'm at work). It's probably in the System menu.
[05:18] <gop> Dr_Willis_Home,  am I doing something wrong
[05:18] <finer_recliner> i have an IP address for both eth0 and eth1. how can i tell which one i'm using to connect with?
[05:18] <Endlessguitar> ok
[05:18] <PriceChild> Endlessguitar, what graphics card do you have?
[05:18] <PriceChild> Endlessguitar, don't give out remote access to your machine ;)
[05:18] <Endlessguitar> geforce 7600
[05:18] <z0man> ifconfig
[05:18] <Endlessguitar> :)
[05:18] <Qix> finer, can't you just unplug your ethernet cable and see which one drops?
[05:18] <z0man> type ifconfig for ip address info
[05:19] <Endlessguitar> how I chat private?
[05:19] <Dr_Willis_Home> gop,  its playing here. all i can recall doing is running totem or somthing befor and it askes-auto-installed the various mp3 and other needed files
[05:19] <PriceChild> Endlessguitar, system > admin > restricted manager
[05:19] <Jchord> nevermind it still won't work now it says "mount: can't find /dev/sdb1 in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab" and i know for shure that it the drive and partition is sdb1
[05:19] <gop> ahh
[05:19] <Dr_Willis_Home> gop,  i dont even recall what it installed. :)
[05:19] <PriceChild> Endlessguitar, that will prompt you for your password and then let you choose whether to install the nvidia non-free drivers
[05:19] <shirish> Endlessguitar: just click on the person's name you want to chat with
[05:19] <finer_recliner> Qix: kinda not my first choice...
[05:19] <leagris> Endlessguitar, /dialog nickname or /CHAT nickname for p2p DCC chat
[05:19] <usser> Jchord: do ls /dev/sd*
[05:19] <Qix> understandable, =D
[05:20] <usser> Jchord: and see if its there
[05:20] <Endlessguitar> okej
[05:20] <PriceChild> Jchord, tell me the exact command you are using please
[05:20] <Endlessguitar> :)
[05:20] <gop> hmm
[05:20] <bezibaerchen> leagris: /query nickname should be fine too :-)
[05:20] <Endlessguitar> hey
[05:20] <PriceChild> Jchord, as it shouldn't say that :P
[05:20] <finer_recliner> z0man: yes, i'm referring to ifconfig....BOTH devices have an IP address. i want to know which one im using to connect with though
[05:20] <Endlessguitar> bah
[05:20] <Endlessguitar> Im so fucking bad
[05:20] <Endlessguitar> at linux lol
[05:20] <mc44> !ohmy | Endlessguitar
[05:20] <ubotu> Endlessguitar: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[05:20] <Endlessguitar> :)
[05:21] <Jchord> sudo ls /dev/sd* gives me /dev/sda  /dev/sda1  /dev/sdb  /dev/sdb1
[05:21] <PriceChild> Jchord, what command are you trying to run?
[05:21] <phy2> finer_recliner, you can install wireshark, a protocol analyzer, can show you every packet going in and out of your machine
[05:21] <PriceChild> Jchord, paste it for me exactly :)
[05:21] <Jchord> the comand im using is "mount /dev/sda1"
[05:21] <z0man> when i try to identify which, i tend to use another machine to try and ping it or try to access the router
[05:21] <jovans> i have no 3d
[05:21] <shirish> does anybody know why virtualbox is not in the repositories?
[05:21] <Yggdrasil> anyone know of a particularly fast dl miror for ubuntu cd ?
[05:21] <z0man> if it don't ping then try another network slot in the machine
[05:22] <shirish> Yggdrasil: I would suggest rather go for a .torrent
[05:22] <PriceChild> Jchord, you need to specify the mount point
[05:22] <PriceChild> Jchord, sudo mkdir /media/foo
[05:22] <leagris> finer_recliner, sudo route -n | grep UG  or sudo traceroute -n destination
[05:22] <usser> Jchord: if its not in fstab its not gonna be mounter
[05:22] <CyberTop> Hallo all
[05:22] <usser> *d
[05:22] <Endlessguitar> hmm

[05:25] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  but the expert debian installer crashes
[05:25] <Hariharan> shirish: where do you stay
[05:25] <dyrne> effie_jayx: that comp id consider vector linux or something.  the server installcd might be ok but really ubuntu isnt the sleakest of distros
[05:25] <buonvino> hello how can i copy someone's nick name quickly when i want to say something to him in irc channel ?
[05:25] <shirish> finer_recliner: paste the content of your ifconfig at paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:25] <z0man> U might end up having to take one network card out to really know
[05:25] <shirish> Hariharan: Pune, India, South East Asia
[05:25] <buonvino> like what shirish did
[05:25] <effie_jayx> dyrne,  I am looking into Slax and Damn SMall
[05:25] <Toma-> buonvino: type the first couple letters and hit tab
[05:25] <SnuS> effie_jayx DSL is ok. puppy linux is good, too.
[05:25] <PriceChild> buonvino, type the first few letters then press <tab>
[05:25] <buonvino> o thanx
[05:26] <Hariharan> shirish: working for
[05:26] <effie_jayx> dyrne,  but packaging is where it hurts
[05:26] <CyberTop> does nobody know how to help me?
[05:26] <z0man> who had the two ips?
[05:26] <dyrne> effie_jayx: puppy linux might be good. i dont like it though. seems too MS like
[05:26] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  I need it to sintall educational software...
[05:26] <z0man> and cannot identify the card
[05:26] <SlimeyPete> effie_jayx: Vector Linux will run OK on that hardware
[05:26] <dyrne> effie_jayx: yeah. there are some slackware based distros with decent package management
[05:26] <shirish> Hariharan: working for small businesses, if we want to chat OT from here, suggest we pm?
[05:26] <CyberTop> pleace!
[05:26] <leagris> finer_recliner, you have two default gateways wierd. traceroute will tells you which gateway you realy use.
[05:26] <Toma-> CyberTop: DVB worries hey?
[05:26] <dyrne> effie_jayx: freebsd also
[05:26] <Dr_Willis_Home> puppylinux ms like? Hmmm..
[05:27] <shirish> leagris: he might be having one to some kind of local lan perhaps
[05:27] <finer_recliner> shirish: pasted.
[05:27] <pdlnhrd> is there an easy way to downgrade apache from 2.2.3 to 2.0 something?
[05:27] <SnuS> effie_jayx well, I'm currently installing ubuntu server 6.06 with xubuntu-desktop on about 40 computers ranging from P2@350 to P4@2.8 for my workplace. so it works
[05:27] <shirish> finer_recliner: link please
[05:27] <finer_recliner> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20188/
[05:27] <finer_recliner> shirish: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20188/
[05:27] <CyberTop> Toma-:  ???
[05:27] <SnuS> effie_jayx in what way does the installer crash ?
[05:27] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  mi problem seems to be the kernel...
[05:27] <usr13> So, what is the process involved in displaying the icon on the desktop each time a new drive is mounted?
[05:28] <usr13> How is that done?
[05:28] <CyberTop> I don't understand
[05:28] <Yggdrasil> shirish, 170 KB/s much better
[05:28] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  after it detects the Hardware... (past the language section)  it jst doesn't respond anymore...
[05:28] <Toma-> CyberTop: what model is your DVB card
[05:28] <CyberTop> ok
[05:28] <finer_recliner> leagris: $traceroute --> bash says command not found
[05:28] <CyberTop> Toshiba
[05:28] <shirish> finer_recliner: from what it looks, it looks eth0 as your net
[05:28] <effie_jayx> I tried reading the verbose... and I couldn't access busybox
[05:28] <Qix> sudo traceroute
[05:28] <shirish> finer_recliner: but traceroute is always better
[05:28] <z0man> finer_recliner your 192 is a local connection?
[05:28] <Toma-> CyberTop: Ill need a little more info than that
[05:29] <leagris> finer_recliner, need sudo and no $ sign
[05:29] <shirish> Yggdrasil: there is also .metalink but its still at a spec. here, once that gets approved you will get much better speeds
[05:29] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  I burned the cd's on 4x so it is not a DMA loss or something... I don't think
[05:29] <SnuS> weird, never had that happen.
[05:29] <SnuS> tried booting of a live cd ? DSL or something ?
[05:29] <SnuS> see if that works ?
[05:29] <CyberTop> but i don't know the model but  i give you the link about it
[05:29] <shirish> zonum_: also usually your first connection to the net gets etho0, atleast that's my experience
[05:29] <finer_recliner> z0man, shirish, leagris: 192 is a wireless router and i did sudo traceroute, and still command not found
[05:29] <usr13> Whether it is a ide drive or a usb flash drive, an icon appears on the desktop for it, and a name appears under it.  How is that done?  What application gets the name and display's it on the screen for us?
[05:30] <lucasvo> hi
[05:30] <xtknight686> usr13: gnome-hal-mounter i believe
[05:30] <shirish> finer_recliner: lol, don't do sudo traceroute just do traceroute archive.ubuntu.com
[05:30] <Toma-> CyberTop: ok
[05:30] <z0man> traceroute6
[05:30] <z0man> try that
[05:30] <leagris> finer_recliner, so it is not install. sudo apt-get install traceroute
[05:31] <xtknight686> usr13 rather, gnome-volume-manager
[05:31] <usr13> gnome-hal-mounter  ?
[05:31] <usr13> you sure?
[05:31] <xtknight686> see above
[05:32] <usr13> o sorry
[05:32] <drummer> Need help avi no longer works in Dapper LTS.
[05:32] <Lectus> Hello! I'm planning on installing either Ubuntu or Kubuntu for dual boot with WinXP. I tryied both Live CDs but it seems Kubuntu runs faster than Ubuntu, although Ubuntu seems more complete with nicer applications. Is this performance difference true? When the OS is installed to hard disk will it run faster so the speed difference won't be noted?
[05:32] <Toma-> CyberTop: what is the webiste for your DVB card?
[05:32] <z0man>  sudo apt-get install traceroute would install the missing package i believe
[05:32] <dyrne> what is it with linux traceroute anyway ive never gotten the good output i get with win32 tracert
[05:32] <Yggdrasil> tracert ?
[05:32] <CyberTop> one moment
[05:33] <finer_recliner> leagris, shirish: i got traceroute, and did traceroute www.google.com, and the first line is 192.168.0.1
[05:33] <Yggdrasil> cybertop is it a dvb-t card or wha?
[05:33] <drummer> Can someone help with a problem playing video files?
[05:33] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  I will do that ... we are donating those pc's ... a school is discarding them... and an orphanage may benefit there...
[05:33] <Yggdrasil> shirish, would be nice to get about 270KB/s
[05:33] <leagris> finer_recliner, according to the netmask on your eth1 it goes through this interface
[05:33] <fdr> Hello. Can you please suggest me a tool that gives me UML class diagrams starting from Java source? Thanks!
[05:33] <Yggdrasil> but 170 will have to do
[05:33] <shirish> Yggdrasil: I know I filed a spec. about it
[05:34] <SnuS> unfortunately, edubuntu will not work on them, but you can use puppy linux or DSL or feather linux. try them out, they seem pretty neat. I was amazed at Puppy Linux :D
[05:34] <CyberTop> it is a USB dvb
[05:34] <Yggdrasil> i dont understand .
[05:34] <Yggdrasil> cybertop for terestrial cable or ota
[05:34] <ivan> Hi everybody, i just have a simple question that i couln't find an answer in google. usually, when went to places->network->windows network and then double-clicked on the network, it would give me a list of computer in the workgroup...
[05:34] <Yggdrasil> or sat
[05:34] <mattwalston> Anyone know what would cause the users prompt to show  "I have no name!"
[05:34] <ivan> now.. for some reason, its asking me a password...
[05:34] <Toma-> CyberTop: you need to say my name before replying to me
[05:34] <shirish> Yggdrasil: it has nothing to do at your end
[05:34] <SnuS> effie_jayx ubuntu-6.06.1-server-i386.iso - did you try this image ?
[05:34] <dyrne> ah nm i wasnt using icmp -I
[05:34] <Dostcan_NL> haloo
[05:34] <finer_recliner> leagris, shirish: do you know of a way to force my traffic to use eth0 instead of eth1?
[05:34] <Yggdrasil> shirish gotcha
[05:34] <CyberTop> is terrestrial cable and ota
[05:35] <daedra> anyone a fan of mpd?
[05:35] <daedra> !mpd
[05:35] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mpd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:35] <Yggdrasil> cybertop cool, generlaly ive dealt whit those types in debian, using a kernel built for it
[05:35] <daedra> !info mpd
[05:35] <|ericsson|> SnuS: You are aware that there is a 7.04 server version out?
[05:35] <ubotu> mpd: Music Player Daemon. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.12.2-2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 127 kB, installed size 404 kB
[05:35] <ivan> and whether i enter a password or not, it doesn't show me any computers in the network, but if i enter the name of the computer i want to browse (or ip) it works
[05:35] <Yggdrasil> v4l might help you out
[05:35] <Yggdrasil> #v4l
[05:35] <Toma-> CyberTop: model number?
[05:35] <Otacon22> stop please to say ota, that I have the bip on xchat with that name
[05:35] <Otacon22> :P
[05:35] <phy2> finer_recliner, you can do that with 'route' command, I believe
[05:35] <drif> daedra: be more specific
[05:35] <kick52[pm] > hello
[05:35] <SnuS> |ericsson| I am aware that therer is a 7.04. but I my personal suggestion is using 6.06 for a p2@300mhz.
[05:35] <shirish> finer_recliner: don't know your setup sorry
[05:35] <leagris> finer_recliner, traffics goes to the first default gateway matching the netmask
[05:36] <daedra> drif: well, I use mpd on dapper but I've completely forgotten how to set it up
[05:36] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  I didn't... then Install Xubuntu Desktop?
[05:36] <shirish> daedra: whats mpd?
[05:36] <shirish> music player daemon or something else?
[05:36] <drif> that's what I was after
[05:36] <daedra> shirish: yep music player daemon
[05:36] <drif> there's also Multi-link PPP daemon for FreeBSD
[05:36] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  I still use dapper.. ;)
[05:37] <bulle> daedra: what type of daedra are you ?
[05:37] <SnuS> effie_jayx exactly. http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download . Get the 6.06 LTS server version, and boot off it, try installing and after installing simply apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
[05:37] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  I have the server dvd from the official book...
[05:37] <SnuS> it works like a charm :>
[05:37] <daedra> bulle: one of the plains of oblivion
[05:37] <SnuS> ahm. ok, well, try it out :)
[05:37] <CCmonster> whats the command to del a file in terminal
[05:37] <CCmonster> i want to delete the TOTEM plugins for firefox
[05:37] <phy2> CC -- rm
[05:37] <shirish> daedra: I did see that package, maybe its called something else now
[05:37] <ivan> anybody know how to get rid of the password?
[05:37] <CCmonster> ive replaced them with mplayer
[05:37] <bulle> daedra: yeah, i guessed that much, but what type ? =D
[05:37] <|ericsson|> SnuS: would be advisable due to LTS, would run smoothly on that machine, agreed..
[05:37] <daedra> drif: anyway, i know it involves inetd
[05:37] <SnuS> Help: any suggestions on a good network browser as close to MS Explorer as possible ? :|
[05:38] <CCmonster> when i go through the gui
[05:38] <CCmonster> it wont let me del files
[05:38] <bulle> SnuS: what do you mean with "network browser" ?
[05:38] <daedra> bulle: let me sort out mpd, we'll talk in ubuntu-offtopic
[05:38] <CCmonster> why? and how do i change that?
[05:38] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  will xfce work ok with only 96 RAM?
[05:38] <|ericsson|> SnuS: you can use IE if you want ;)
[05:38] <skipper> Hi everyone.  I need help.  When I open Thin Client Manager in 7.04, it pegs by cpu usage at 100% and locks the application up.  Any ideas?
[05:38] <shirish> daedra: there is mpd in the repository
[05:38] <r00t3r-j03> Can anyone tell me where to get a VCD Plugin for Totem?
[05:38] <Jchord> when i do this "sudo cp /media/foo2/Backups /home/jchord/" it says "cp: omitting directory `/media/foo2/Backups' " what do i do? to get it to copy?
[05:38] <daedra> shirish: I know, how do I set it up
[05:39] <daedra> shrish: it needs configuring through inetd
[05:39] <skipper> Hi everyone.
[05:39] <shirish> daedra: what do u mean set it up? u do sudo aptitude install mpd
[05:39] <SnuS> bulle sorry. SMB.
[05:39] <daedra> arrrg
[05:39] <|ericsson|> Jchord: try creating the folder first, that does help sometimes
[05:39] <Jchord> ok thanks
[05:39] <buz1> Hi all. I'm finally installing Dapper drake on my laptop. I couldn't seem to find a tool to resize and keep my windows partition. I used another tool to repartition and now i'm installing on separate partitions. My question is: Will the standard installation wipe the boot manager, so I can't access windows anymore? I would like to be able to dual boot
[05:39] <bulle> SnuS: i like smb4k
[05:39] <daedra> shirish: mpd requires a front end, in my case ncmpc, and I want to know how the two work together
[05:39] <shirish> daedra: ah sorry, don't know about that
[05:40] <SnuS> effie_jayx one of my recent installs. Mem:        125056     120940       4116          0       2268      52252 . it has 50mb free out of 128, running firefox. do the maths. barely.
[05:40] <Dostcan_NL> halo
[05:40] <honeymonkey> buz1 dapper i don't know but ubiquity should find the partition and set up grub
[05:40] <dyrne> bulle: it will ask you but yes it will reinstall mbr. that is a good thing
[05:40] <pdlnhrd> i am getting this error:  error while loading shared libraries: libc.so.6   anyone know a fix?
[05:40] <SnuS> damn debmirror.
[05:40] <SnuS> Euare n aducerea http://ubuntu.gds.ro/ubuntu/pool/main/k/kdelibs/kdelibs-bin_3.5.2-0ubuntu18.3_i386.deb  404 Not Found
[05:40] <dv5237> if i do 'sudo nano -B /etc/apt/sources.list' where will nano put my backup? i did 'ls /etc/apt' but only see 'sources.list' and 'sources.list.d'
[05:40] <bulle> dyrne: uhm ?
[05:40] <dyrne> bulle: it will detect windows and at bootup you can choose
[05:40] <effie_jayx> SnuS,  welll ... that machine will only use educational software...
[05:41] <Jchord> i did mkdir /home/jchord/Backups and then sudo cp /media/foo2/Backups /home/jchord/ but ut still says cp: omitting directory `/media/foo2/Backups'
[05:41] <shirish> daedra: wouldn't it have been better if there was documentation about that on help.ubuntu.com then even if you forget you can look it up as well as others.
[05:41] <bulle> dyrne: i think you are mixing me up with someone else
[05:41] <buz1> @honeymonkey: is ubiquity the installer? I'm not sure if you're recommending that i use a separate tool
[05:41] <dyrne> bulle: yeah :)
[05:43] <Qix> I have tried everything on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/LinksysWUSB54GC?highlight=%28WUSB54GC%29 to get my WUSB54GC working and it still doesn't work properly.
[05:43] <Andeh> Hello
[05:43] <Jchord> help! Ii did "mkdir /home/jchord/Backups" and then "sudo cp /media/foo2/Backups /home/jchord/" but it still says "cp: omitting directory `/media/foo2/Backups' "
[05:43] <Qix> Now when the driver loads it pegs my CPU at 100%
[05:44] <AnAnt> !activedirectory
[05:44] <ubotu> You can learn more about ActiveDirectory intergration at  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto
[05:44] <Andeh> I am on the live cd now. Is there any way i can run the DPKG command on my ubuntu install FROM the live cd? I need this to find out what packages i have installed
[05:44] <Qix> does _anyone_ have a clue about this?
[05:44] <Andeh> ?
[05:44] <shirish> daedra: what's so cool about mpd, I use exaile?
[05:44] <z0man> Hows this for a partition strategy, move the beginning NTFS a little foward for the /boot to be at the start
[05:44] <usser> Jchord: i think its supposed to be the other way around
[05:44] <ziro> Jchord, use cp -a
[05:44] <Jchord> hun?
[05:44] <psusi> z0man: can't move the start of an ntfs partition
[05:44] <shirish> Andeh: you can use the terminal
[05:44] <z0man> you can with GParted
[05:44] <usser> Jchord: u wnat to copy home to backups right
[05:45] <psusi> z0man: not the last time I checked... it won't let you because doing so will cause windows to not boot
[05:45] <JR> is it possible to get ubuntu to boot up at 1600x900?
[05:45] <daedra> shirish: mpd can have ANY front end, it's more than likely that exaile is a front end for mpd
[05:45] <daedra> it is the root of lots of music players
[05:45] <Jchord> no backups into home
[05:45] <Andeh> shirish: I tried, i dont know what folder the command is in. Do you know, or am i doing it wrong?
[05:45] <Jchord> thanks ziro it worked
[05:45] <z0man> but i can't get XP To boot with ubuntu installed on top :(
[05:45] <shirish> daedra: no, its not because I installed mpd right after you said, while exaile has been running for quite sometime now
[05:45] <Andeh> My ubuntu install is on /media/disk
[05:45] <Andeh> What do i have to type?
[05:45] <CCmonster> why do i keep getting mplayer errors?
[05:45] <shirish> Andeh: what do u wanna do?
[05:45] <z0man> when i dual booted suse it came with a GRUB error 18 on stage 1.5
[05:45] <CCmonster> im getting mplayer errors of all kinds
[05:46] <CCmonster> weird video output errors
[05:46] <daedra> shrish: mpd, a daemon, can be piped through a network, accessed in a number of crazy ways
[05:46] <daedra> it works for me :)
[05:46] <z0man> however i can install everything either suse or ubuntu.  Just i cannot dual boot :(
[05:46] <daedra> its just a bit sketchy to set up at first
[05:46] <AdamPal> Best way to upgrade from debian etch (4.0) lenny/sid (unstable) -> ubuntu stable?  (apt-get dist-upgrade is much preferred is possible)
[05:46] <Andeh> shirish: i said i need to run the DPKG command to find out what packages i have installed. I need to backup a package list so i can auto-install all of them after reinstalling ubuntu.
[05:46] <Andeh> OK?
[05:46] <buz1> I've installed now... rebooting... here goes! :-/
[05:46] <z0man> i have tried to fix grub's pointing file menu.lst and that didnt work :(
[05:46] <Kyral_Laptop> AdamPal: Safest method is a clean reinstall
[05:47] <AdamPal> Kyral_Laptop: I realise, but if that is /really/ not an option for me...
[05:47] <Kyral_Laptop> AdamPal: That being said, try it ;P
[05:47] <shirish> z0man: you should be able to, look at the http://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto as well as the page mentioned therein
[05:47] <Kyral_Laptop> AdamPal: Sounds like fun to try it though :D
[05:47] <Andeh> I need to do this command from the live cd, but to get the packages installed on my /media/disk partition: sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep '[[:space:] ] install$='| awk '{print $1}' > installedpackages
[05:47] <AdamPal> I think Im going to
[05:47] <AdamPal> Full backup first, then apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:47] <shirish> Andeh: ok no idea about that
[05:47] <Andeh> **to get the packages that are installed*
[05:47] <daedra> !info mpd
[05:47] <ubotu> mpd: Music Player Daemon. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.12.2-2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 127 kB, installed size 404 kB
[05:47] <AdamPal> I just dont have the energy to reinstall from scratch
[05:47] <AdamPal> What apt sources should I use for stable?
[05:47] <Andeh> shirish: darn
[05:47] <shirish> sorry
[05:47] <daedra> my recommended front end is ncmpc
[05:47] <daedra> !info ncmpc
[05:47] <ubotu> ncmpc: text based audio player. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11.1+svn-r3965-2 (feisty), package size 81 kB, installed size 352 kB
[05:48] <kitsuneofdoom> I can't open any gtk programs in my vnc session.
[05:48] <shirish> although its a good idea & should be possible
[05:48] <shirish> ok dinner call, bbl all
[05:48] <CCmonster> this is frustrating.
[05:48] <Andeh> shirish: wow, i didnt know converting to ReiserFS was such a pain in the bum
[05:48] <bullgard4> How can I establish if $kernel-source is an existing environment variable in my computer?
[05:48] <Andeh> That's all im really trying to do
[05:48] <CCmonster> Every video i play, comes up black and makes me have to RIGHT click to get it to play in Totem
[05:49] <CCmonster> ugg, i just want something that plays the flipping embedded videos RIGHT :O
[05:49] <Kubuntu> Can Ubuntu recover xp passwords?
[05:49] <honeymonkey> buz1 ubiquity is the installer
[05:49] <Andeh> shirish: and booting the live cd takes 19 minutes for me for some reason so i want to do as much as possible from the live cd
[05:49] <usser> bullgard4: echo $kernel-source
[05:49] <highvoltage> CCmonster: run gstreamer-properties
[05:49] <Andeh> shirish: cause i am in it now
[05:49] <highvoltage> CCmonster: then go to video and disable Xv
[05:49] <bullgard4> usser: I will give it a try.
[05:49] <highvoltage> CCmonster: that worked for me
[05:49] <SnuS> I tried mirroring my own ubuntu repository using debmirror, but I keep getting errors for some packages, like kdelibs-bin_3.5.2-0ubuntu18.3_i386.deb ( not found ).
[05:50] <SnuS> I used "debmirror --progress --nosource --method=ftp --host=ftp.fu-berlin.de --root=linux/ubuntu/ --dist=dapper,dapper-updates,dapper-security,dapper-backports --section=main,restricted,universe,multiverse --arch=i386 --cleanup --ignore-release-gpg /mnt/mp32/ubuntu"
[05:50] <daedra> can someone type a tilde
[05:50] <AdamPal> What ubuntu sources in apt.sources should I be using for a dist-upgrade from debian etch (unstable) to ubuntu (stable) ?
[05:50] <AdamPal> daedra: ~
[05:50] <honeymonkey> buz1 why not use feisty?
[05:50] <daedra> I can't find it on this fecking keyboard
[05:50] <daedra> lol
[05:50] <Toma-> lol
[05:50] <Andeh> Ok, can anyone help me?
[05:50] <Andeh> I am following this guide but i need to get the package list from my Ubuntu insta,, but  i am in the LiveCD now.

[05:50] <kitsuneofdoom> I'm trying to update my home computer to 7.04 remotely, but any gtk programs give a BadRequest in my vnc session, and all of the installers use gtk, it seems.
[05:51] <Toma-> haha.
[05:51] <daedra> stupid american layout
[05:51] <CCmonster> disable xv?
[05:51] <JR> is it possible to get ubuntu to boot up at 1600x900?
[05:51] <usser> Andeh: dpkg -l
[05:51] <Toma-> daedra: thats the funniest thing ive helped with in this channel :D thanks
[05:51] <compengi> does ubuntu support connon lbp 2900 printer?
[05:51] <daedra> I realised the ridiculousness of it
[05:51] <compengi> cannon*
[05:51] <Toma-> compengi: canon*
[05:51] <Andeh> usser: -l??
[05:52] <Toma-> compengi: theres a comprehensive list of printers available... hold tight
[05:52] <usser> Andeh: -l for list will show u all the packages installed
[05:52] <dyrne> compengi: do a google search like:  'site:linuxprinting.org printermodel'
[05:52] <noname1> Linux is weird! I had everything working perfectly yesterday on my laptop.... I turn it on today and my sound does not work.
[05:52] <|ericsson|> compengi: if you have problems you could always try the turbo-print--driver
[05:52] <dyrne> noname1: you must have upset it
[05:52] <daedra> I've set it to uk layout now ~~~~
[05:52] <daedra> yaya
[05:52] <kick52[pm] > ok
[05:52] <CCmonster> frustrating,
[05:52] <noname1> daedra | I did
[05:52] <CCmonster> it wont work
[05:52] <usser> noname1: that suggest only one thing that everything wasn't perfect =)
[05:53] <bullgard4> usser: detlef@MD97600:~$ "echo $kernel-source; -source"
[05:53] <CCmonster> do i need to restart firefox?
[05:53] <noname1> but but but...
[05:53] <noname1> it was perfect
[05:53] <daedra> nonamel: you did? what did you did?
[05:53] <`alex> what is SFTP?
[05:53] <CheshireViking> usser, will that work for Andeh? he's running off the livecd, don't you need to be running the hard drive system to get the list of packages installed?
[05:53] <kick52[pm] > im a bit confused by the install proccess
[05:53] <noname1> no idea.
[05:53] <MBChris> hi all
[05:53] <daedra> nonamal: ah.
[05:53] <noname1> sound worked out of the box
[05:53] <MBChris> alex: Secure FTP
[05:53] <noname1> then... it didn't
[05:53] <usser> CheshireViking: it still have to show stuff
[05:53] <noname1> today
[05:54] <noname1> out of the blue.
[05:54] <kick52[pm] > how can i make it use the guided free space option work for external drives?
[05:54] <Andeh> usser: I think it wont work.
[05:54] <Andeh> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/clone-your-ubuntu-installation.html
[05:54] <Andeh> dpkg -l does not help. I tried.
[05:54] <daedra> nonamel: I hate that
[05:54] <kick52[pm] > it only seems to work for whole disk
[05:54] <daedra> nonamel: So I tend not to
[05:54] <usser> Andeh: hm
[05:54] <redbullfx> hi guys...hows it going...
[05:54] <noname1> this is my laptop...
[05:54] <sercik> !multimedia
[05:54] <ubotu> Ubuntu 7.04 installs multimedia codecs automatically. For older versions of Ubuntu, or if you can't use the automatic installer, see https://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - For multimedia applications, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultimediaApplications
[05:54] <`alex> MBChris thanks. why does connecting with nautilus to ftp server wont work? It works for most of FTP servers but for "ftp://ftp.assyrianchurch.com.au" it just doesnt, can anyone test it in some random FTP program and see if it gives answer back? i get "site down or osmething like that"
[05:54] <CCmonster> no luck
[05:54] <CCmonster> restarted totem, and firefox
[05:54] <noname1> so... naturally i turned it off...
[05:54] <rvilera> Hi all.
[05:55] <Andeh> Ok, does anyone know how to do this?
[05:55] <Andeh> I am on the live cd, i need to get a dpkg -l  list of the things installed in my HARD DRIVE. Dpkg -l only gives me the ones on the cd.
[05:55] <redbullfx> i need help..  what channel should i go to, so i can get help with my synaptic package manager????
[05:55] <MBChris> alex: i will try, hold on
[05:55] <rvilera> Question, I'm about to install a compatibility directory for a program compiled against an older glibc, but I see there's a glibc2.2 based stdc++ package available. will installing it overwrite/damage my current libstdc++ or will it sit besides it without touching it?
[05:55] <nickrud> Andeh, mount your hard drive root partition somewhere, sudo chroot somewhere, then dpkg -l
[05:55] <usser> bullgard4: then that variable doesnt exist
[05:56] <AdamPal> What ubuntu sources in apt.sources should I be using for a dist-upgrade from debian etch (unstable) to ubuntu (stable) ?
[05:56] <bullgard4> usser: Thank you very much for helping me.
[05:56] <redbullfx> i need help..  what channel should i go to, so i can get help with my synaptic package manager????
[05:56] <rvilera> redbullfx: try here
[05:56] <MBChris> alex: The adress is not known
[05:56] <nickrud> AdamPal, unless things have changed a lot in the last 6 months, that's not a good idea. It was actively discouraged at one time
[05:57] <redbullfx> in here????
[05:57] <`alex> MBChris same here =(
[05:57] <noname1> wtf
[05:57] <noname1> sound works now
[05:57] <nickrud> Andeh, did that make sense to you?
[05:57] <MBChris> so its a wrong url
[05:57] <CCmonster> whats the terminal cmd for del?
[05:57] <rvilera> AdamPal: I agree, a direct cross update from debian to ubuntu is not the best idea on my mind
[05:57] <noname1> w.t.f
[05:57] <rvilera> noname1: don't look a gift horse in the mouth
[05:57] <sipior> CCmonster: rm
[05:57] <rvilera> CCmonster: rm
[05:57] <AdamPal> How am I ever going to recreate all my lovely customizations in ubuntu :(
[05:57] <MBChris> alex: ping: unknown host ftp.assyrianchurch.com.au
[05:57] <rvilera> CCmonster: be CAREFULL with
[05:57] <daedra> rm is evil
[05:57] <noname1> ha.
[05:57] <Yggdrasil> adampal that wont work
[05:58] <noname1> I guess not
[05:58] <CCmonster> i know :)
[05:58] <Andeh> nuckrud: It is mounted, as "/media/disk". What does chroot do, and what do i need to type in the terminal?
[05:58] <Yggdrasil> it might maybe work, but i doubt it
[05:58] <nickrud> AdamPal, back up your /etc, your home, and do dpkg --get-selections for your package list
[05:58] <rvilera> AdamPal: worse yet, migrating cross-os from a heavily customized os is like changing lanes in a turbo charged bus onto an oncomming train
[05:58] <CCmonster> using the apt-get, how do i remove a package?
[05:58] <CCmonster> apt-get remove?
[05:58] <effie_jayx> CCmonster,  yep
[05:58] <AdamPal> rvilera: I've done that before... it was fun... I'm still alive :D
[05:58] <drummer> Still looking for some help on video files - anyone?
[05:58] <AdamPal> nickrud: And then...?
[05:58] <rvilera> CCmonster: dpkg -r
[05:59] <daedra> I want to search my running processes for a string
[05:59] <daedra> ps and greb?
[05:59] <rvilera> daedra: a string where?
[05:59] <iwcd> I am using ubuntu feisty with kde and the taskbar has disappeared - only for my username - Help appreciated thanks :)
[05:59] <nickrud> AdamPal, compare your customized etc with the ubuntu one, mount your home (those shouldn't need changing) then dpkg --set-selections < <saved package list> and apt-get dselect-upgrade
[05:59] <rvilera> daedra: yes. use "ps -fea|grep"
[05:59] <nickrud> AdamPal, that will get you nearly back
[05:59] <daedra> fea?
[05:59] <AdamPal> Thank you
[06:00] <Andeh> nickrud: It is mounted, as "/media/disk". What does chroot do, and what do i need to type in the terminal?
[06:00] <nickrud> AdamPal, did that when I started with warty
[06:00] <rvilera> daedra: shows extended info on all processes, not just your session's
[06:00] <daedra> also where does the string go (foo)
[06:00] <AdamPal> Thank you nickrud
[06:00] <rvilera> daedra: ps -fea|grep "foo"
[06:00] <daedra> rvilera: much thanks :)
[06:00] <rvilera> Question, I'm about to install a compatibility directory for a program compiled against an older glibc, but I see there's a glibc2.2 based stdc++ package available. will installing it overwrite/damage my current libstdc++ or will it sit besides it without touching it?
[06:00] <CCmonster> hmm, cant say the mplayer plugin is great either :(
[06:01] <drummer> iwcd:  Take a look on the bottom right hand side of your screen and see if you accidentally rolled it up.  There may be a small gray or blue bar there.
[06:01] <nickrud> Andeh, chroot changes the effective root, so you any commands you run are from the disk. It's used a lot for locking servers away from the full system.
[06:01] <CCmonster> i dont know wtf is wrong with my mplayer
[06:01] <CCmonster> nothing works in it
[06:02] <nickrud> Andeh, you would simply type, in a terminal, sudo chroot /media/disk  . There's a lot of options there, but since you're only looking for the dpkg list you don't need any
[06:02] <Andeh> nickrud: I dont think it works, it typed "sudo chroot /media/disk sudo dpkg -l" and it says ""chroot: cannot run command `sudo': Permission denied""
[06:02] <iwcd> drummer - ive looked for that - nothing about and its not hiding anywhere - works in other accounts though
[06:02] <redbullfx> When i try to install Skype i get ...     error : Dependency is not satisfiable: libqt3-mt | libqt3c102-mt
[06:02] <Costel> and we we know whats wrong?
[06:02] <sipior> CCmonster: i've had poor luck with it as well, but totem-xine works quite well on everything i've thrown at it
[06:02] <nickrud> Andeh, you don't need sudo for the dpkg -l
[06:02] <sipior> CCmonster: as long as win32 codecs are installed, &cet.
[06:02] <Kubuntu> I want to control my wondows computer from here without installing anything on it. Is ti possibole?
[06:02] <Andeh> Hey
[06:02] <drummer> iwcd: that's my best guess,
[06:02] <Andeh> when i typed chroot /media/disk it says "chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': Permission denied"
[06:03] <Andeh> Whats that?
[06:03] <CCmonster> how do i get the win32 codecs?
[06:03] <sipior> Kubuntu: yeah, there's a terminal server on ubuntu that you can try
[06:03] <rvilera> Kubuntu: if it has terminal server you can use rdesktop to connect to it
[06:03] <Kubuntu> Exspalain terminal server?
[06:03] <nickrud> Andeh, but you do need sudo for the chroot:   do sudo chroot /media/disk , then after that's done do the dpkg -l
[06:03] <rvilera> Kubuntu: google for it.
[06:03] <rvilera> Question, there was I remember a site that maintained packages for older redhat distros, what was it please?
[06:03] <rvilera> bah wrong window
[06:03] <drummer> CCmonster: install and run Automatix2
[06:03] <rvilera> sorry
[06:03] <sipior> CCmonster: there's an extra repository you can hit now that has them, iirc
[06:03] <rvilera> Question, I'm about to install a compatibility directory for a program compiled against an older glibc, but I see there's a glibc2.2 based stdc++ package available. will installing it overwrite/damage my current libstdc++ or will it sit besides it without touching it?
[06:03] <Louey> Kubuntu I found an app that might work. http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/   its like a software kvm switch
[06:03] <dmhouse> Hi all. I'm trying to open a large (54MB) .avi file in Totem, which crashes immediately. Running totem from the terminal gives http://pastebin.ca/481035 as an error when it crashes.

[06:04] <nickrud> Andeh, see psusi just above
[06:04] <drummer> Speaking of mplayer etc.  I am suddenly having major problems with all video players.  help please
[06:04] <Costel> chrooting into a disk is imposibile
[06:04] <sipior> Andeh: where are you trying to chroot to?
[06:04] <psusi> Costel: it most certainly is...
[06:05] <Andeh> My Ubuntu install so i can do dpkg and save my packages and install them after i reinstall from the live cd i am running now.
[06:05] <sipior> and where is that mounted?

[06:06] <ubotu> blender is a free application for 3D modelling, animation, rendering, etc. You can install it from Ubuntu's repositories, and tutorials are at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro
[06:06] <Andeh> on /media/disk
[06:06] <Andeh> Also, when i chroot to /media/disk it tells me that /bin/bash can not be found, but when i CD to it bin/bash is there!
[06:06] <CCmonster> there is movie player totem, and then a totem with a xine backend?>
[06:06] <CyberTop> toma you see the link
[06:06] <psusi> Andeh: what does ls -al /media/disk/bin/bash say?
[06:06] <Andeh> cd /media/disk/bin and "bash" is there
[06:06] <Toma-> CyberTop: yes, thanks, ill look into it
[06:06] <CyberTop> ok
[06:06] <sipior> Andeh: and are you root when you chroot?
[06:06] <Andeh> it says "-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 700560 2007-04-10 23:32 /media/disk/bin/bash"
[06:07] <Andeh> I am on the live cd, and i did a sudo when chrooting
[06:07] <Costel> CCmonster:http://ubuntuguide.org u have there all u need
[06:07] <kitsuneofdoom> GTK programs do not run over VNC
[06:07] <psusi> hrm... that's strange
[06:07] <AdamPal> Out of interest, is `./command < blah' the same as `cat blah|./command' ?
[06:07] <daedra> grr
[06:07] <CyberTop> According to you it is compatible??
[06:07] <psusi> AdamPal: yes
[06:07] <CCmonster> is there really a diff between totem-gstreamer and totem-xine?
[06:07] <CCmonster> i didnt realize there were 2 diff
[06:07] <rvilera> Question, I'm about to install a compatibility directory for a program compiled against an older glibc, but I see there's a glibc2.2 based stdc++ package available. will installing it overwrite/damage my current libstdc++ or will it sit besides it without touching it?
[06:07] <Ng> kitsuneofdoom: they should, almost anything that should work in X should work in VNC
[06:07] <rvilera> CCmonster: the engine it uses
[06:07] <psusi> CCmonster: yes
[06:07] <Andeh> also, it says sudo: unable to execute /media/disk/bin/bash: Permission denied
[06:08] <rvilera> CCmonster: one uses the xine engine, the other the gstreamer engine
[06:08] <CCmonster> which is preferred?
[06:08] <Andeh> even though i do a sudo and i already set the permissions to 777 and it still says that
[06:08] <daedra> how do I add a directory in plugdev to a group so that mpd can access it
[06:08] <daedra> cannot open music_directory "/media/disk-3/music/" (config line 8): Permission denied
[06:08] <nickrud> Andeh, is the partition mounted no-exec?
[06:08] <rvilera> CCmonster: depends on who you ask, you should be able to install both and try them out
[06:08] <Andeh> nickrud, i dunno. How do i mount it as exec?
[06:08] <redbullfx> QUESTION : I need some help with skype not installing? i get a error : dependency is not satisfiable : libqt3-mt | libqt3c102-mt
[06:08] <CCmonster> here is my goal - be able to play embedded or streaming video IN THE PAGE
[06:08] <Costel> Andeh:u cannot chroot there
[06:08] <wInd> Hi
[06:09] <nickrud> Andeh, type mount | grep media/disk  and look at the output for the
[06:09] <wInd> my desktop is empty after reboot
[06:09] <kitsuneofdoom> Ng: I know, but apparently it's not a unque error
[06:09] <wInd> any idea how to make the icons and wallpaper come back ?
[06:09] <kitsuneofdoom> Ng: It has to do with xfixes
[06:09] <nickrud> *partition
[06:09] <rvilera> CCmonster: I think you'll need either the vlc or mplayer plugin versions, but they're not perfect by far
[06:09] <mc44> CCmonster: you mean in firefox?
[06:09] <Andeh> /dev/hda7 on /media/disk-1 type reiserfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[06:09] <nickrud> wInd, try killall nautilus first
[06:09] <CCmonster> yes in firefox
[06:09] <nickrud> ah
[06:09] <sipior> nickrud: good catch :)
[06:09] <Andeh> Wait no thats the wrong one, it should be just disk
[06:09] <Andeh> i think theres a problem with the mounted
[06:09] <rvilera> Question, I'm about to install a compatibility directory for a program compiled against an older glibc, but I see there's a glibc2.2 based stdc++ package available. will installing it overwrite/damage my current libstdc++ or will it sit besides it without touching it?
[06:09] <Andeh> I'll remount it as something else ok?
[06:10] <daedra> grrr
[06:10] <psusi> Andeh: what happens if you do /media/disk/bin/bash?

[06:10] <wInd> 'nautilus : no process killed'
[06:10] <redbullfx> I need some help with skype not installing? i get a error : dependency is not satisfiable : libqt3-mt | libqt3c102-mt
[06:10] <mc44> CCmonster: then you want mozilla-mplayer or mozilla-totem
[06:10] <psusi> Andeh: ohh, you mounted it with noexec, so you can't run anything on it... heh
[06:10] <insomninja> Hi
[06:10] <mc44> CCmonster: totem-mozilla rather
[06:10] <kitsuneofdoom> why do you even need gtk to upgrade to 7.04
[06:10] <nickrud> wInd, then alt-f2 , and enter nautilus
[06:10] <Andeh> How do i not mount it as noexec?
[06:10] <CCmonster> what about codecs and all that?
[06:10] <wInd> oh year
[06:10] <wInd> great :)
[06:10] <psusi> Andeh: don't give the noexec option when you mount it
[06:10] <usser> redbullfx: ah yes, did u download it from skype.com?
[06:10] <Ng> kitsuneofdoom: if you're using update-manager, because update-manager uses gtk
[06:10] <mc44> CCmonster: mplayer should play nearly everything
[06:10] <redbullfx> yes i did
[06:11] <insomninja> I'm trying to compile a program that requires 'yacc', but apt-cache search returns a list of different programs and I don't know what to choose...
[06:11] <wInd> didn't thought of that lol
[06:11] <psusi> Andeh: only give the rw option, leave the others out
[06:11] <Andeh> I didnt, i went in gparted and right clicked, mount
[06:11] <wInd> thanks nickrud
[06:11] <rvilera> I give up, I'll compile my own ld, glib, and libstdc
[06:11] <Andeh> Whats the command to mount it? It's at /dev/hda5
[06:11] <nickrud> wInd, yw
[06:11] <usser> redbullfx: try version that says static with qt compiled in
[06:11] <kitsuneofdoom> Ng: even the server install uses gtk though
[06:11] <Andeh> i already unmounted
[06:11] <sipior> CCmonster: i've installed the totem-xine and the accompanying player, and these work fine with embedded video
[06:11] <Ragnar74> Hi has anyone used injection with a broadcom chipset based wlan card?
[06:11] <nickrud> Andeh, sudo mount /dev/hda5 /media/disk
[06:11] <nickrud> Andeh, eh.
[06:12] <Costel> mount -rw /dev/foo /mnt/foo
[06:12] <Ng> kitsuneofdoom: update-manager-core doesn't depend on gtk
[06:12] <martos> wenas
[06:12] <nickrud> Andeh, sudo mount -t ext2 /dev/hda5 /media/disk
[06:12] <redbullfx> ok ill try that
[06:12] <Andeh> Something keeps mounting it and opeing nautilus with it
[06:12] <CCmonster> accompanying player?
[06:12] <CCmonster> isnt that what totem-xine is?
[06:12] <Andeh> Every time i unmount nautilus opens with the disk i unmounted. Wtf?
[06:12] <mc44> CCmonster: no thats totem backend
[06:12] <kitsuneofdoom> Ng: it doesn't?
[06:12] <chiky> wenas
[06:12] <sipior> CCmonster: there's a totem plugin as well
[06:13] <mc44> CCmonster: you need the mozilla plugin to play in mozilla
[06:13] <Ng> kitsuneofdoom: well, it shouldn't do :)
[06:13] <Andeh> Ok, how do i unmount it?
[06:13] <nickrud> Andeh, that's plugdev. You'll need to edit /etc/fstab and remove the noexec on media/disk
[06:13] <cblack0> I'm trying to add apt repos by using the /etc/apt/sources.list.d. I made a text file that contains a regular repo path (like a snipped from sources.list) yet it doesn't seem to be honored (even after an apt-get update). Any clues?
[06:13] <sipior> CCmonster: search aptitude for totem, it'll turn up
[06:13] <daedra> cannot open music_directory "/media/disk-3/music/" (config line 8): Permission denied
[06:13] <CCmonster> i will still need to download the ness plugins nomatter which player
[06:13] <kitsuneofdoom> Ng: It do.
[06:13] <nickrud> Andeh, then it should mount the way you need
[06:13] <mc44> CCmonster: eh? you just need to get mozilla-mplayer or totem-mozilla, either should work ok
[06:13] <Andeh> No, it is not even in fstab. Remember i am on livecd
[06:14] <Ng> kitsuneofdoom: oh I know why. In edgy it's not split into two packages. From feisty onwards there is a separate update-manager-core package which definitely doesn't depend on gtk
[06:14] <Ng> kitsuneofdoom: if it's a server though you could just use apt-get?
[06:14] <Andeh> What is the command to UNMOUNT?
[06:14] <dyrne> cblack0: can you pastebin it?
[06:14] <kitsuneofdoom> Ng: OH. Idiot me. It was depending on Gksu
[06:14] <Ng> Andeh: umount /path/to/mounted/place
[06:14] <cblack0> dyrne, sure, hold
[06:14] <dyrne> cblack0: and the output of update?
[06:14] <Ng> Andeh: possibly with sudo :)
[06:14] <cblack0> dyrne, thanks btw
[06:14] <mc44> Ng: you can get update-manager-core for the edgy->feisty upgrade though

[06:18] <sipior> drummer: and is any error given?
[06:18] <redbullfx> hell here is the thing.. before i reinstalled ubuntu, it did work.. perfect, but now i get this error, or if i go to synaptic manager, and i try to install  xine, or xmms, i get always sometyhing missing
[06:18] <cblack0> dyrne, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20197/
[06:18] <redbullfx> its crazy..
[06:18] <redbullfx> but i never had that problem
[06:19] <kick52[pm] > hmm
[06:19] <cblack0> my issues using /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ files are at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20197/
[06:19] <drummer> mc44: all of them
[06:19] <kick52[pm] > could ou get fluxbox to integrate into compiz... no..
[06:19] <redbullfx> ok let me try usser
[06:19] <CCmonster> can you install multiple things at once?
[06:19] <drummer> sipior: no error on the screen and I do not know which log file to check.
[06:19] <usser> redbullfx: skype needs qt and if u install skype from repo it should pull all the dependencies with it
[06:19] <CyberTop> Toma-: you read in pvt?
[06:19] <mc44> drummer: run the player from the terminal
[06:19] <sipior> drummer: try starting the player from the command line. try "totem"
[06:19] <CCmonster> like sudo apt-get install mplayer mozilla-mplayer mplayer-skins
[06:19] <Toma-> CyberTop: i cant avoid it :) yes i read it
[06:19] <phy2> cblack0 --- the      sources.list           file is what I editted, not           sources.list.d
[06:19] <redbullfx> usser - ok ill try taht..ill be right back
[06:20] <CyberTop> ok
[06:20] <mc44> CCmonster: yes, but if you install mozilla-mplayer, mplayer will be automatically installed
[06:20] <AnAnt> hello, I got a problem joining an Active Domain
[06:20] <z0man> i think my box has a hardware issue with linux :(
[06:20] <Andeh> brb dinner 10 minutes
[06:20] <cblack0> phy2, yeah, I know how to get it to work that way. I am trying to get it to work by including snippets from sources.list.d as that makes managing autoinstalls a bit cleaner
[06:20] <AnAnt> I followed the steps in:
[06:20] <CCmonster> because of the dependency
[06:20] <AnAnt> !activedirectory
[06:20] <CCmonster> ?

[06:20] <CyberTop> is pssible to configure it?
[06:20] <Och4> mawkee, will that teach me how to make .sh files?  i already have the script coding, but i don't know where to begin.
[06:20] <CCmonster> ok i get this error in mplayer, about video out
[06:20] <treefingers> I just upgraded to latest version of ubuntu through auto updater and I am now I have no sound although my sound card is detected
[06:20] <AnAnt> I followed the steps in https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto
[06:21] <Toma-> CyberTop: well, it saddens me to say, it looks like it cant be used...
[06:21] <Costel> can someone look at that http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20198/
[06:21] <mc44> CCmonster: does it work in firefox?
[06:21] <cblack0> phy2, in many distros, a .d dir means the contents of all files within that dir will be included (like an #include) in the main config
[06:21] <CyberTop> I don't understand
[06:21] <Toma-> CyberTop: It was plugged in when you ran lsusb right?
[06:21] <CCmonster> error opening/initializing the selected video out (-vo) device

[06:21] <Andeh> Ok dinners not ready yet

[06:22] <mc44> drummer: which player?
[06:22] <AnAnt> what's the problem ?
[06:22] <Andeh> I do a 'sudo mount /dev/hda5 /ubuntu' and it tells me "mount point ubuntu does not exist"
[06:22] <Andeh> What the hell?
[06:22] <drummer> mc44: I tried totem this time
[06:22] <CyberTop> i speak english very little
[06:22] <mc44> drummer: which other players dont work? try one of them
[06:22] <Toma-> Andeh: have you got a folder falled /ubuntu?
[06:23] <kicadp> hiyas
[06:23] <sipior> drummer: what other things have you changed on this system recently?
[06:23] <sipior> drummer: any upgrades?

[06:24] <Toma-> CyberTop: is that a USB device or a PCI device?
[06:24] <CyberTop> PCI

[06:25] <drummer> sipior: I also tried completely removing the players and then the codecs then re-installing with no joy.
[06:25] <usser> redbullfx: can u do sudo apt-get install skype?
[06:25] <cblack0> nickrud, thanks, I don't think that is the only issue tho as I also tried to add a repo snippet that works from sources.liost (an http one)
[06:25] <sipior> drummer: that's very odd. any other strange system behaviour?
[06:25] <kicadp> how can enable the dual boot after i finished installing ubuntu ? i have XP on other partition
[06:25] <Toma-> woops!
[06:26] <iddqd_> What should i put to my Device section' driver, im using 3Dfx Voodoo 3 3000 and i want 3D-accelearion? :P
[06:26] <Toma-> CyberTop: use pastebin
[06:26] <stefg> drummer: but you didn't remove ~/.vlc . Maybe there's some misconfiguration in there
[06:26] <Toma-> !pastebin | CyberTop

[06:26] <iddqd_> my gfx card i mean
[06:26] <usser> redbullfx: skype works huh?
[06:26] <usser> redbullfx: it was a dependency problem
[06:26] <sipior> drummer: also, it would be useful to look through the log that synaptic keeps of which packages are upgraded. it is accessible from synaptic, and you could use that to help isolate the problem
[06:26] <redbullfx> usser :  THank you .....very much..can u help me with next problem?
[06:26] <kicadp> by default XP boots but i want both OS` to appear in boot list

[06:27] <sipior> drummer: have you activated compiz or beryl recently?
[06:27] <spencer> How do I make it so I can run programs off my usb drive?
[06:28] <svl> Hi all. Something I _really_ miss from Windows is the ability to start dragging a file from explorer and then while holding that alt-tab through all open programs to pick one to drop it in. But alt-tabbing doesn't work on ubuntu when you're dragging something. Anyone know of a workaround? (Google leads me to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NonModalDrag%26Drop which makes me think "not yet", but I...
[06:28] <svl> ...thought to ask just in case)
[06:28] <sipior> drummer: ah wait, are you low on memory?
[06:28] <iddqd_> Anyone has voodoo gfx card?
[06:28] <kicadp> stefg: ubuntu was installed after XP
[06:28] <drummer> sipior: tried to with no luck.
[06:28] <kicadp> on ther partition
[06:28] <kicadp> other*
[06:28] <sipior> drummer: have a look at free and see what it says
[06:28] <redbullfx> usser : is there a way to write you and see just your responses ???
[06:28] <dooglus> svl: you can drag it to the window list in the bottom panel, which will open the window you hover it over
[06:29] <stefg> kicadp: read the grub-howto, you'll find the answer there
[06:29] <CCmonster> how do i add the mplayer site to my repositories
[06:29] <CCmonster> so it willl stay updated?
[06:29] <kicadp> ok, thank you
[06:29] <svl> dooglus: ah, that might do for now. thanks. :)
[06:29] <nickrud> cblack0, I just tried a working one from my sources.list and it didn't work either
[06:29] <cblack0> ah vell
[06:29] <usser> redbullfx: that'd be private msg but im not registered so i cant send pms
[06:29] <Toma-> CyberTop: can you please run "dmesg | grep bt878_probe" for me?
[06:29] <dooglus> svl: google for avant-window-navigator if you're using compiz or beryl - it's a nice bottom-panel replacement
[06:30] <usser> redbullfx: shoot whats the problem
[06:30] <redbullfx> usser : are you in another # so i its less croweded
[06:30] <cblack0> ok, does anyone have a working syntax for sources.list for a directory-based repo? wiki https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/Personal did not seem to work :(
[06:30] <sipior> drummer: the insufficient resources error is very interesting. are you low on disk space, or memory?
[06:30] <svl> heh, I don't think my laptop would quite perform with those - but I'll keep it in mind for when I'm back home. :)
[06:31] <Grrr> hello everyone
[06:31] <usser> redbullfx: well im at work now so im kinda time-limited, ask a question if i can i answer it, if not somebody else will
[06:31] <Toma-> CyberTop: shucks. you might be on the same boat as me. its not getting auto-loaded. what was the card called again?
[06:31] <cox377> hello all

[06:32] <mc__> I meant im searching one,sry

[06:34] <redbullfx> usser : or what fixed it
[06:34] <sipior> tatters: Battle for Wesnoth is pretty nice
[06:34] <Toma-> tatters: boson maybe?
[06:34] <usser> redbullfx: seems like it, but it shouldn't be if u were installing from the apt-get all the deps should have been taken care of automatically
[06:34] <Hoag> Can anyone tell me te command for te gnome on screen keyboard?
[06:34] <nickrud> cblack0, did you put the deb line into the main sources.list
[06:34] <drummer> sipior: as I said beryl will not run so i (t5hink) I removed it all.  BUT I started having these problems after I first intalled beryl.
[06:34] <Toma-> sipior: thats nothing like C+C tho
[06:34] <stefg> cox377: you have to install it (use the add/remove entry in the apps menu)
[06:34] <usser> redbullfx: i dunno maybe it was apt-get update u did
[06:34] <sipior> Toma-: there was an "or" statement in his original request
[06:34] <redbullfx> ok.....
[06:34] <Hoag> My |-| and rig|-|t - s|-|ift + m keys aren't working so well
[06:35] <redbullfx> usser: well thank you...oh and another question
[06:35] <cblack0> nickrud, check this out: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20201/
[06:35] <cblack0> nickrud, yep, it's in there
[06:35] <Toma-> sipior: ok
[06:35] <cox377> stefg: have to install the pluggin or K3B?
[06:35] <tatters> sipior: , Toma- thnx I wil give them both a go.
[06:35] <cblack0> nickrud, it seems to know the package exists, but can't fetch it
[06:36] <redbullfx> usser: i have 4 drives. 1 drive has linux on it. i made it use whole drive for the system, But my other drives are still ntsf, i cant save anything there, so i want to make one of them linux, how do i do that
[06:36] <Toma-> tatters: continuing on the 'or' path, tremulous is a great game
[06:36] <stefg> cox377: possibly both.. the plugins are mainly for transcoding media content
[06:36] <sipior> drummer: well there's a big clue :) did the problem occur after rmoving beryl, or after installing it?
[06:36] <patzlaff> Hi all
[06:36] <sipior> removing, rather
[06:36] <usser> redbullfx: install gparted
[06:36] <redbullfx> usser: ok let me try
[06:36] <quaal> why did my sound just cutout while playing mp3's in xmms
[06:36] <cox377> stefg: i cant see an option for making an iso in k3b though mate
[06:36] <usser> redbullfx: and launch it
[06:36] <DVS01> hi
[06:36] <redbullfx> ok
[06:37] <irpotential> Do voodoo3 cards work with Ubuntu or not (I don't care about 3D anything just TV out)?
[06:37] <quaal> xmms message: please check that your soundcard is configured properly, you have the correct output plugin selected, no other program is blocking the soundcard
[06:37] <drummer> sipior:  hard to say.  I installed beryl - couldn't get it to work, uninstalled and then was having problems with video files
[06:37] <patzlaff> I've some problem with beryl-manager...My video card is 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 04) and I use the last version Faisty. When I try start up the beryl the problem is libGL error: drmMap of framebuffer failed (Invalid argument)
[06:37] <Toma-> CyberTop: can you run "dmesg | grep saa7" for me please?
[06:38] <patzlaff> Can anyone help me?
[06:38] <sipior> drummer: you might try reinstalling beryl, without activating it. possible something got deleted that shouldn't have. very bizarre, anyway
[06:38] <dmhouse> Hey there. I'm trying to open a large (55MB) .avi file. Both totem and mplayer crash on opening with the errors in http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20203/. Any suggestions?

[06:38] <DVS01> my girlfriend is a total computer newbie. i am considering putting ubuntu on the pc that i am building for her. do you guys have any recommendations as to what sort of setup i should make for her?

[06:39] <CyberTop> it is normal?
[06:39] <cblack0> DVS01, KDE. Make firefox the default browser. Make sure a nice IM program is easily available. Also install thunderbird for email
[06:39] <quaal> Shaba1, yes.
[06:39] <drummer> sipior:  I'm trying that now.
[06:39] <sipior> dmhouse: did you recently play around with beryl by any chance?

[06:39] <dmhouse> sipior: I did indeed. :)
[06:39] <Toma-> CyberTop: your card needs a driver called saa717x, i presume.
[06:39] <usser> redbullfx: u have some weird, repository problems
[06:39] <redbullfx> usser: all other packages worked...and it said, do you want to ignore. i said no
[06:39] <dmhouse> sipior: should I try with metacity?
[06:39] <sipior> dmhouse: drummer is trying something at the moment, might help you
[06:39] <CyberTop> ok
[06:40] <quaal> Shaba1, sudo apt-cache search vnc
[06:40] <CyberTop> but how configure it?
[06:40] <sipior> dmhouse: no, it seems to screw up under metacity as well
[06:40] <redbullfx> usser: how do i check it or fix it?
[06:40] <sipior> dmhouse: well, you can still try...
[06:40] <quaal> Shaba1, vncserver looks interesting
[06:40] <patzlaff> Can anyone help me with my beryl problem???
[06:40] <nette> hey.. has someone tried to install office2003 with wine??
[06:40] <usser> redbullfx: do u have an install DVD handy?

[06:40] <quaal> nette, i did it with crossover office
[06:41] <nette> quaal, ok.. what will that say? crossover office?
[06:41] <redbullfx> usser: yeah. i have the cd??
[06:41] <dmhouse> sipior: confirmed, it breaks with metacity too.
[06:41] <walas> hey... what do i have to do to grant access to make files NOT only on my desktop?
[06:41] <plaa> is there a way to get konversations osd working in ubuntu?
[06:41] <dmhouse> ... And with Compiz.

[06:41] <Gorlist> Afternoon
[06:41] <CCmonster> i also need a front-end?
[06:42] <redbullfx> usse: when i boot, should i click on start or install option, or boot from hard disk???
[06:42] <usser> redbullfx: im not sure its gonna be on cd but u can try
[06:42] <Gorlist> Right need some help, is their a Linux Hard Driver tester I can download?
[06:42] <drummer> sipior:  well that did not work.  I ran vlc from the cmd line and got the same errors
[06:42] <Louey> how do i install a program that is an .rpm file?
[06:42] <Gorlist> (Dynotics)
[06:42] <patzlaff_>  I've some problem with beryl-manager...My video card is 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82915G/GV/910GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 04) and I use the last version Faisty. When I try start up the beryl the problem is libGL error: drmMap of framebuffer failed (Invalid argument)
[06:42] <rsteele> private
[06:42] <Ursinha> Louey, you can use alien to transform a rpm into a debian
[06:42] <patzlaff> Guys
[06:42] <drummer> sipior: it's weird that it tries to play, then crunches.
[06:42] <kaolti> is there a command to restart x window?
[06:42] <usser> redbullfx: boot from hard disk
[06:42] <redbullfx> usser: do i need to restart comp, or just put it in
[06:42] <quaal> nette, crossover office is a program you install that runs on wine, makes installing MS shit easier
[06:42] <sipior> drummer: i hate to say it, but you might need to reinstall a big chunk of the X server
[06:42] <Ursinha> kaolti, restart how?
[06:43] <lucasvo> I have problems with my soundcard and I am not sure if it is broken or not. it is supposed to work with ubuntu out of the box. but in my case the sound is too quite and sounds somehow distorted
[06:43] <Louey> cool i'll google it. thanks Ursinha
[06:43] <quaal> nette, its not free, so you'll have to deal with that..
[06:43] <usser> redbullfx: just put it in
[06:43] <lucasvo> but thats only when I turn it up.
[06:43] <Ursinha> Louey, yw
[06:43] <Ursinha> :)
[06:43] <usser> redbullfx: i thought u already restarted
[06:43] <nette> quaal, oh ok...
[06:43] <redbullfx> ok its in
[06:43] <stefg> !beryl | patzlaff
[06:43] <ubotu> patzlaff: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[06:43] <Gorlist> Anyone know a hard drive Diagnotics program for ubuntu??
[06:43] <sipior> drummer: dmhouse : quite baffling, and i would say you should file a bug report with canonical (beryl is not technically supported, but they might like to know about this)
[06:43] <redbullfx> usser: ok its in
[06:43] <stefg> !sound | lucasvo
[06:43] <ubotu> lucasvo: 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
[06:43] <kaolti> Ursinha: restart like going back to text mode and then initialising display again without restarting the whole pc
[06:43] <quaal> !crossover office | nette
[06:43] <drummer> sipior:  Is there a way to do that without wiping the drive?
[06:44] <quaal> !crossoveroffice | nette
[06:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about crossoveroffice - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:44] <quaal> guess they dont have anything
[06:44] <sipior> drummer: dmhouse : yes, you can simply select "reinstall" using synaptic
[06:44] <kaolti> Ursinha: i did dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and i  dont want to reboot
[06:44] <CCmonster> so i installed totem-xine, now i just apt-get install mozilla-totem?
[06:44] <Ursinha> kaolti, you can go to a terminal and kill -9 'pgrep X`
[06:44] <quaal> CCmonster, totem plugin kinda sucks.. i'd advise mplayer and/or vlc
[06:44] <sipior> drummer: dmhouse : hopefully that will restore your system, but the problem might be more subtle, requiring a lot more packages to be reinstalled
[06:44] <kaolti> Ursinha: lemme try
[06:44] <CCmonster> well mplayer is being DUMB
[06:45] <CCmonster> it wont hold a connection
[06:45] <Gorlist> Hi, is their a way I can test the hard drive for fault
[06:45] <CCmonster> it keeps "stopping"
[06:45] <CCmonster> and i cant use the progress bar it seems
[06:45] <redbullfx> usser:so how do i make the cd check for errors, or make it fix it...
[06:45] <dmhouse> drummer: I've only tried a single video. Does it crash on all files for you, or just for specific ones (perhaps larger ones)?
[06:45] <stefg> Gorlist: what do you want to test?
[06:45] <dmhouse> CCmonster: increase the buffer size?
[06:45] <usser> redbullfx: now im not sure go to /etc/apt/sources.list and disable everything except cd/dvd
[06:45] <Gorlist> hard drive for errors
[06:45] <sipior> drummer: dmhouse : that's one reason i keep all home directories on a separate partition (and separate disk when i can). easy reinstall if required
[06:45] <drummer> sipior: like which ones?  and should I completely remove breryl 9again) before trying this.
[06:46] <redbullfx> usser: ok...
[06:46] <dmhouse> CCmonster: see man mplayer.
[06:46] <Ursinha> kaolti, are you using gdm?
[06:46] <kaolti> Ursinha: how can i start x again from text mode?
[06:46] <CyberTop> Toma-: ?
[06:46] <Gorlist> for faults or bad sectors
[06:46] <redbullfx> usser: just put those # infront right?
[06:46] <CCmonster> which codec "family" should i use
[06:46] <CCmonster> ?
[06:46] <stefg> Gorlist: theres's  smartmontools or fsck with badblock checking
[06:46] <kaolti> Ursinha: hmmmmmm yea i think so :D
[06:46] <strabes> kaolti: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start
[06:46] <mc__> im looking for a CAD like programm which is easy to use for designin a house.
[06:46] <sipior> drummer: dmhouse : hmm...search for X server and reinstall everything, frankly
[06:46] <drummer> dmhouse: all avi amd mpg crash and I can no longer play dvds
[06:46] <Gorlist> how can I access these
[06:46] <Toma-> CyberTop: this is all i can suggest. "sudo modprobe saa7134 i2c_scan=1"
[06:46] <Gorlist> through terminal?
[06:46] <Ursinha> kaolti, if you're running gdm you have two possible ways
[06:46] <dmhouse> drummer: okay.
[06:46] <Toma-> CyberTop: after that, i have no help :(
[06:46] <usser> redbullfx: umm wait, i dont see no cd/dvd in the list, hm, i guess
[06:46] <dv5237> what font does ubuntu use in the gnome termminal?
[06:47] <Ursinha> kaolti, kill gdm, and then restart it again -- gdm restart never worked for me
[06:47] <dogmeat> how do i get more package information about what is displayed from a apt-cache search ?
[06:47] <cblack0> so, I got my repo working. My problem was the way I made Packages.gz
[06:47] <treefingers> I am looking to install Java Plugin on Firefox 2.0.0.3 on Feisty.. what should I do to make sure everything works correctly?
[06:47] <usser> redbullfx; i dunno
[06:47] <Ursinha> or startx -- :2, to up X on display :2
[06:47] <Ursinha> kaolti,
[06:47] <Ebem> I have a problem I can't get video to work in totem-xine, vlc, or mplayer. I don't have beryl or emerald installed anymore, I have a nvidia card... any suggestions?
[06:47] <redbullfx> usser: ill check online,, but can you tell me how you know if its repositories problem
[06:47] <kaolti> Ursinha: yes
[06:47] <taonari> Hello I just setup Samba today and am having write issues.  The share is visible from windows machines and you can read the contents of the folder but I cannot write to it.  Can somone take a look at my smb.conf file:  http://pastebin.ca/481097

[06:48] <sipior> Ebem: yes, a few folks here have posted this problem. no solution atm, sorry
[06:48] <Ursinha> kaolti, i think you can kill gdm, and then X, and then just startx
[06:48] <drummer> sipior: dmhouse: ok I'll give that a shot.  It'll have to wait til tonight - I have appoints to keep now.  Thanks
[06:48] <sunnypies> taonari, do you need to setup at a fat32 partition so you can write to it?

[06:49] <Ursinha> anybody here with problems using totem-xine?
[06:49] <ubuntu_mike> mm
[06:50] <spencer> Ati problems are easy to fix, just buy a nvidia card
[06:50] <ubuntu_mike> quick question
[06:50] <CyberTop> yes excuse me
[06:50] <usser> redbullfx: and because it wasn't installing dependent packages
[06:50] <ubuntu_mike> im trying to install ubuntu
[06:50] <ubuntu_mike> im at the partitions screen
[06:50] <luisgmarine> Ursinha, what kind of problems?
[06:50] <zaggynl> Ursinha, try a real mediaplayer -> VLC, mplayer
[06:50] <jpotex> I get "core dumped" when I try to install the ati driver on 7.04. The message is on this board, http://ubuntu-se.org/smf/index.php/topic,9511.0.html. Can someone help me?
[06:50] <jpotex> spencer: I think it'll be the only solution soon enough
[06:50] <redbullfx> oh ok...
[06:50] <Ursinha> i'm trying to play a asx file and totem freezes
[06:50] <ubuntu_mike> i put a swap, and an ext....i click 'next' but it gives me an error saying i dont have a root / parititon...isnt that what the swap is?
[06:50] <Ursinha> tried with mplayer, it claims for a asi...dll file
[06:50] <Ursinha> but i guess all codecs are installed
[06:51] <stone123_> ubuntu_mike, mount ext3 as /
[06:51] <lucasvo> stefg: please do not just use ! sound because you've read the word sound in my message. I told you sound is somehow working
[06:51] <ubuntu_mike> heh
[06:51] <Ursinha> zaggynl, i've already tried mplayer
[06:51] <ubuntu_mike> that made me look dumb
[06:51] <ubuntu_mike> = X
[06:51] <Doct_dany> hi
[06:51] <CyberTop> Toma-: you help me ebout samba?
[06:51] <stefg> lucasvo: have you read the howto?
[06:51] <ubuntu_mike> thx stone
[06:51] <zaggynl> Ursinha, you have the w32codecs?
[06:51] <lucasvo> stefg: yes
[06:52] <stone123_> np
[06:52] <Ursinha> zaggynl, yes
[06:52] <jpotex> Doesnt the VESA-driver has support for 1680x1050?
[06:52] <lucasvo> and according to this how2 evereything is supposed to work
[06:52] <lucasvo> which apparently isn't
[06:52] <Toma-> CyberTop: i dont know anything about samba sorry :(
[06:52] <zaggynl> Ursinha, asx, hmm are you able to find the pls file for said stream?
[06:52] <irpotential> can anyone offer any help with a voodoo3 tv out? or should I go elsewhere?
[06:52] <seanj> can someone help me set up a printer, Lexmark x1270?
[06:52] <CyberTop> I have installed SWAT but when i opne 127.0.0.1:901 it don't work
[06:52] <cblack0> irpotential, I don't have one and don't know about them. I would google around, no idea
[06:53] <Ursinha> zaggynl, when i tried to use totem-gstreamer, it wasn't able to understand mms protocol
[06:53] <CyberTop> why?
[06:53] <redbullfx> usser: than you for your help.... i appreciate it
[06:53] <Ursinha> zaggynl, fine, so i installed totem-xine instead
[06:53] <stefg> lucasvo: then it might be as simple as mixer settings. Pcm might be all the way up, but Master is down... that would result in low, but distorted sound
[06:53] <usser> redbullfx: no problem
[06:53] <irpotential> ok, I've seen loads of 3D acceleration problems with them on google, but tv out is harder to find
[06:53] <Ursinha> zaggynl, and it freezes
[06:53] <redbullfx> usser: u mind if i add u as friend..so next time i need help...im pretty sure ill be back
[06:53] <Ursinha> zaggynl, so i decided to try mplayer
[06:53] <IdleOne> 
[06:53] <Ursinha> and then he claims for the dll
[06:54] <usser> redbullfx: sure
[06:54] <zaggynl> Ursinha, I haven't had succes with asx files either, does the stream you're trying to view/listen to provide pls files?
[06:54] <dyrne> irpotential: better off searching ubuntuforums.org
[06:54] <treefingers> is there a channel for more laid back chat?
[06:54] <Ursinha> zaggynl, its message is that is possible to connect but not to reproduce
[06:54] <Pici> treefingers: #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:54] <IdleOne>  Z] 
[06:54] <irpotential> ill look harder. thanks
[06:54] <Ursinha> zaggynl, hmmm... i don't really know... but it used to work with edgy..;;
[06:54] <stefg> lucasvo: double-click on the speaker-icon in the tray and check
[06:54] <seanj> can someone help me set up a printer, Lexmark x1270?
[06:54] <treefingers> Pici: thanks
[06:55] <quaal> why did my sound just cutout while playing mp3's in xmms with the error message: please check that your soundcard is configured properly, you have the correct output plugin selected, no other program is blocking the soundcard
[06:55] <Ursinha> maybe changes made?
[06:55] <redbullfx> usser: i need a movie player, that plays all .. codecs and stuff??? which one???
[06:55] <Ursinha> redbullfx, mplayer, no doubt
[06:55] <usser> redbullfx: i use mplayer
[06:55] <zaggynl> Ursinha, could you PM me the link
[06:56] <redbullfx> usser: ok done..installed.... its so wierd..anything i wanted to install before didnt work.. but not it works..slowely
[06:56] <redbullfx> its weird
[06:56] <seanj> ok so basically i cant use my printer with ubuntu, that's encouraging
[06:57] <Zjoske> i got a question
[06:57] <Ursinha> zaggynl, uhhh i wish i could, but its a link on a internal site of the company i work to, sorry
[06:57] <Ursinha> :/
[06:57] <bobofett> Trying the Kubuntu 7.04 upgrade for about the 10th time...alrady asked in kubuntu irc..no one is saying anything.  But just frozen at Configuring passwd now...any clues?
[06:57] <stefg> seanj: what model?
[06:57] <zaggynl> Ursinha, ah okay
[06:57] <mrholepunch> Does anyone have any experience w/ Feisty and ati drivers?
[06:57] <Zjoske> i want to mount mij USB stick, but it wont mount, i tried mounting it to sg0 but doesnt work, it's not a block device, and sda doesnt work too..
[06:58] <Zjoske> although mij usb mass storage device is recognized
[06:58] <usser> redbullfx: where do u live?
[06:58] <seanj> stefg: Lexmark X1270
[06:58] <rambo3> Zjoske, sda1
[06:58] <Zjoske> sda1 doesnt work to
[06:58] <redbullfx> usser: orlando how about you
[06:58] <Ursinha> mrholepunch, till now feisty and restricted drivers manager seems to deal well
[06:58] <Ursinha> with it
[06:58] <usser> redbullfx: it seems the repo mirrors are lagging
[06:58] <Zjoske> the only point it can use is sg0
[06:58] <Zjoske> but cant mount on that
[06:58] <Ursinha> zaggynl, anyway, what are these pls files?
[06:58] <rambo3> Zjoske, unplug it and plug it back in and check dmesg
[06:58] <shane_> Hi where would wine install to?
[06:58] <usser> redbullfx: ny
[06:59] <Zjoske> i'll paste the output
[06:59] <Ursinha> shane_, what to you mean?
[06:59] <redbullfx> usser: when i use mplayer. i try to play a movie, boat trip.avi  it says, Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo ) device.
[06:59] <zaggynl> Ursinha, well I tried to play an audio stream of my favorite radio station using the asx file, didn't work, I got it working with the pls file the station provides
[06:59] <shane_> The directory, I need to edit a file while I use wine to run
[06:59] <stefg> seanj: lexmark is known for not releasing linux-drivers... get rid of the paperweight and buy a linux-compatible one from HP or Epson (these DO provide Linux-drivers)
[06:59] <seanj> ok :(
[06:59] <Ursinha> zaggynl, hmmm... i see
[06:59] <Ursinha> zaggynl, you asked them for it?
[06:59] <redbullfx> usser: i like NYC, its huge... but all i saw was 48th and lexington, RAMADA INN
[06:59] <redbullfx> lol
[07:00] <zaggynl> Ursinha, they provide it next to the asx link
[07:00] <Cnl_Delta> erm, whats the best channel to get help on burning bios recovery cds when a failed flash took out the floppy drive
[07:00] <usser> redbullfx: hm weird
[07:00] <Ursinha> zaggynl, ohh yes, i see
[07:00] <bobofett> So any idea what would cause the 7.04 upgrade to just stop at Configuring passwd?  And what will happen if I just close out of this...telling me system maybe unusable...just not sure what to do.???
[07:00] <redbullfx> usser: ill search that online
[07:00] <Ursinha> in my case iguess i'll have to deal with the asx file as well;;; :/
[07:00] <Ursinha> zaggynl, ^
[07:00] <usser> redbullfx: look in the settings of mplayer theres gotta be something about video out
[07:00] <shane_> Ursinha: well?
[07:01] <shane_> Ursinha:Where would it be?
[07:01] <Ursinha> shane_, do you want to know about the bin file?
[07:01] <Zjoske> rambo3: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20209/
[07:01] <redbullfx> usser: ok.... and what chat program do you use,  VOICE wise
[07:01] <mrholepunch> Ursinha, I sent you a private message regarding the ATI problem
[07:01] <Ursinha> i guess in usr/bin/wine
[07:01] <shane_> Ursinha: I want to know where to find the folder which I use wine to run
[07:01] <Ursinha> mrholepunch, sorry, let me see
[07:01] <IdleOne> dwwe
[07:01] <seanj> I can't afford a new printer
[07:02] <shane_> Ursinha: ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Astonia 3$ wine explorer /desktop=blah moac.exe Is how I open it, but where do I find the file?
[07:02] <usser> redbullfx: i have an account on fwd, and theres lots of linux clients to connect to voip networks, i use twinkly
[07:02] <Ursinha> shane_, usually it's placed at /usr/bin
[07:02] <ncd> hi
[07:02] <dcordes> when will there be PIDGIN in the repos?
[07:02] <usser> *twinkle
[07:02] <ncd> where can i see a log for beryl?
[07:02] <Ursinha> mrholepunch, guess i'm not getting your private messages
[07:02] <usser> dcordes: pbbly never
[07:02] <dv5237> what would be the 'correct' xterm configfile to put the fontsize and font in i see alot of differnt awnsers when i google for it
[07:02] <joseph__> Anyone know the terminal command to get Beryl?
[07:02] <mrholepunch> alright, let me just paste it on here
[07:03] <rambo3> Zjoske, what kind of device is that ?
[07:03] <Ursinha> joseph__, to get?you mean install?
[07:03] <CheshireViking> !pidgin | dcordes
[07:03] <ubotu> dcordes: 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
[07:03] <stefg> !beryl | joseph__
[07:03] <ubotu> joseph__: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[07:03] <ncd> hhrm
[07:03] <mrholepunch> Well, the restricted drivers that come w/ Feisty do not work. I install and compile the restricted drivers from ATI's website. fglrxinfo says that the ati driver is functional, but the restricted manager is telling me I do not need any restricted drivers. I still have no 3D support. (Radeon 9600)
[07:03] <usser> joseph__: beryl --replace
[07:03] <joseph__> Ursinha yes I mean the teminal command like sudo apt-get beryl or some thing like that
[07:03] <dcordes> CheshireViking, you know a good third party repo for that by chance?
[07:04] <Ursinha> oh, i see
[07:04] <Ursinha> joseph__,   ^
[07:04] <Zjoske> rambo3: it's a mass storage device (usb flash drive)
[07:04] <treefingers> How do I find out if I have multiverse repository enabled?
[07:04] <Ursinha> joseph__, i guess sudo apt-get install beryl beryl-manager
[07:04] <joseph__> Ursinha any clue on the correct command line?
[07:05] <stefg> treefingers: its anableb by default in Feisty
[07:05] <stefg> uuh
[07:05] <treefingers> stefg: thanks again
[07:05] <stefg> treefingers: it's enabled by default in Feisty
[07:05] <CheshireViking> dcordes, i don't, i've not installed it i'm afraid, i only know the factiod because so many people have asked about it in the last couple of days
[07:06] <Jelledj> hoi
[07:06] <rambo3> Zjoske, i dont know that looks wierd
[07:06] <Jelledj> hi
[07:06] <dcordes> I would like to have my messenger up to date :-)
[07:06] <crusie> hi
[07:06] <Jelledj> is this of zeroscape?
[07:06] <rambo3> Zjoske, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.17/+bug/70008
[07:07] <crusie> I have some major issues... my ubuntu wont boot so I\m on the live cd atm... is it possible to make it able to write to ntfs_
[07:07] <carlesoriol> how can i format a floppy?
[07:08] <Matir> Anyone know of somewhere I can buy Ubuntu case badges/stickers?  I don't mean the $3/sticker cafepress kind (that look like they were done on an inkjet)
[07:08] <mrholepunch> So I take it everyone is having as much trouble w/ ATI driver as I am? I'm at the end of my wits w/ this thing...
[07:08] <h4wk0> mrholepunch; i got mine to work first time
[07:10] <dmhouse> Anyone know of a Fuzzy Clock clone for GNOME?
[07:10] <dmhouse> (Fuzzy Clock is a useful KDE panel applet that displays the time like "Twenty to four" instead of "15:38".)
[07:11] <dr_willis> now why that is 'usefull' i dont know. :)
[07:11] <CheshireViking> Matir, what country are you in? I got some in the uk from Linuxemporium
[07:11] <dcordes> CheshireViking, you know something about pidgin repos?
[07:11] <Matir> CheshireViking, USA
[07:11] <CheshireViking> dcordes, i don't, i've not installed it i'm afraid, i only know the factiod because so many people have asked about it in the last couple of days
[07:11] <dmhouse> dr_willis: it's cute and it saves me a few milliseconds unconsciously the numerical time.
[07:12] <CheshireViking> Matir, there was someplace that was advertising some, i'll see if i can find the link again, give me a minute
[07:12] <dooglus> dcordes: I have a pidgin .deb you can use if you like
[07:12] <dcordes> CheshireViking, maybe that's why they don't want old code :-)
[07:12] <dyrne> that would be the simplest applet in the world to make
[07:12] <mrholepunch> Alright well here is the issue I am having. I initially ran Ubuntu/Feisty from live cd and had full 3d support. Beryl worked etc. I looked in the xorg.conf file and noted that the "ATI" driver was selected. I installed Feisty and I lose 3d support. Fglrx is now the default driver. I attempted to install the "ATI" driver like was on the live cd w/ no success (no 3d support). I looked in the restricted drivers manager and it tells me tha
[07:12] <mrholepunch> t I do not need any restricted drivers. fglrxinfo is defaulting to mesa. I install the proprietary ati drivers (from ati.amd.com), blacklist the fglrx module, and use module-assistant to build the driver. Now fglrxinfo is using ati but I still have no 3d support and restricted manager still says I don't need any restricted drivers. Sorry for the huge explanation....
[07:12] <dcordes> dooglus, well thanks- I can compile myself. what I'm looking for is a repository so I stay up to date
[07:13] <Matir> CheshireViking, much appreciated... i googled some myself and found nothing
[07:13] <dooglus> dcordes: "svn up && sudo checkinstall" will keep it up to date...  that's all I do
[07:13] <dmhouse> Also, does anyone know if I can configure the panel to allow windows in front of it?
[07:13] <CheshireViking> Matir, have a look at this, its the first link i found http://ubuntu.wordpress.com/2006/08/12/free-powered-by-ubuntu-stickers/
[07:14] <dcordes> dooglus, you made a script for that?
[07:14] <dooglus> dcordes: no, but a simple alias in your .bashrc would suffice
[07:14] <dmhouse> I'd like to have the panel pretty large so the icons are nice and big but that's limiting my vertical real estate, so I'd like it if it could be configured to allow windows in front of the panel, like it can be in KDE.
[07:14] <dcordes> dooglus, good idea thanks
[07:14] <dooglus> dcordes: the pidgin developers are a bit funny about regular folk using 'their' svn repo, but screw them, eh?
[07:15] <dcordes> dooglus, you mean they don't like people killing their traffic?
[07:15] <dooglus> dcordes: they use sourceforge anyway, so I don't see what the problem is
[07:15] <dcordes> oh i see
[07:15] <CheshireViking> Matir, http://www.system76.com/ this is the website for System76 who are in the USA
[07:16] <mrholepunch> I have googled everything I can think of to resolve this ati problem. I was able to get it working on my laptop after many hours of troubleshooting, but can't get it to work on desktop
[07:16] <br24> test
[07:17] <Matir> CheshireViking, ok, thanks
[07:17] <lucasvo> stefg: I found out what the problem is. I suspended the pc. it stopped working afterwards
[07:17] <lucasvo> do you know how to fix this?
[07:18] <Louey> i am trying to use a program called synergy and when I run the command to start it i get this error: synergyc: error while loading shared libraries: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[07:18] <felixx> can anyone tell me what the difference is? $gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list and gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[07:18] <rezker> which command must i type to launch bittornado?
[07:18] <felixx> why the $?
[07:18] <Louey> does that mean its not in my path?
[07:18] <cox377> when installing ubuntu when seting up the "/" should bootable flag be on>?
[07:18] <stefg> lucasvo: i see. so the driver needs a reload after suspend as it seems
[07:18] <Ursinha> cox377, no
[07:18] <Clete2> cox377: Bootable flag should be on your /boot partition
[07:18] <ZCODE> Which package installls /usr/include/* ?
[07:19] <lucasvo> stefg: apparently. I just have to find out where I have to set this option
[07:19] <dooglus> felixx: '$' is the shell prompt.  you don't type it
[07:19] <Ursinha> cox377, as Clete2 said
[07:19] <jamesbrose> felixx, you don't need the $
[07:19] <mobutu> does ubuntu work on HP TRU64 ?
[07:19] <felixx> thank you dooglus, but in this tutorial, why would someone tell me to type it?
[07:19] <cox377> Clete2: so i've got primary 6gb f ext2    /boot
[07:19] <rezker> which command launching bittornado?
[07:19] <felixx> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=413624
[07:19] <felixx> scroll down to the dvd playback
[07:19] <dooglus> felixx: typing the $ would work if the 'gksudo' variable was set to the value 'gksudo'...
[07:19] <felixx> huh
[07:20] <cox377> Clete2: #6 logical 152gb f ext3   /home
[07:20] <Clete2> cox377: Yes, your / partition does not need bootable, but your /boot does. :)
[07:20] <dooglus> felixx: but often tutorials will show the '$' as a shorthand for "type this at a terminal promot"
[07:20] <Ursinha> cox377, /boot partition needs to be an separated one, if exists
[07:20] <Kaso> I have a CD which has some audio and some videos on it, but Sound Juicer wont let my just open the CD, it just keep tying to play the audio tracks
[07:20] <mobutu> rezker: dunno, but try 'dpkg -L bittornado' , to find out what files are in the package
[07:20] <gordboy> quick question or two. where is the equiv of /etc/inittab ? and how do i set default runlevel ?
[07:20] <cox377> Clete2: ive got a grub 18 error
[07:20] <felixx> ok, ill add it to my sources.lst without the $ then
[07:20] <dooglus> s/promot/prompt/
[07:20] <cox377> i'm hoping by making the boot partion 32mb it will solve this
[07:20] <Clete2> cox377: Sorry, can't help you with that.. I have to go :-/
[07:20] <felixx> thanks doog :)
[07:21] <T-Pup> Does anyone know how to reset the keyring password ? Mine keeps saying password wrong when I try to connect to WEP network
[07:21] <Clete2|away> if nobody can help, try googling error 18
[07:21] <rezker> mobutu: thnx
[07:21] <dooglus> felixx: it doesn't go in sources.lst - it needs typing as a shell command
[07:21] <Ursinha> cox377, you can have two partitions, /boot and /. /boot bootable, and / not
[07:21] <T-Pup> and i've tried googling - heh irc was my last stab attempt :( lol
[07:21] <dooglus> felixx: that's the command you use to run the editor...
[07:21] <cox377> Ursinha: i will soon know if i;ve done it right
[07:22] <cox377> Ursinha: should i have /boot & /root
[07:22] <Ursinha> cox377, or you can have only a / and the boot files are going to be inside, you don'1t have to worry about them
[07:22] <felixx> bah, i get an error upon reload
[07:22] <dooglus> cox377: /boot and /
[07:22] <felixx> wrong key or something
[07:22] <dooglus> cox377: / is the "root partition"
[07:22] <Ursinha> cox377, if you want
[07:22] <Ursinha> cox377, a minute
[07:22] <cox377> Ursinha: this grub 18 has been doing my head in for a day now
[07:22] <cox377> Ursinha: you would never thing insalling ubuntu could be so hard lol
[07:23] <felixx> dooglus, you mind if i pick your brain a little deeper?
[07:23] <dooglus> felixx: sure
[07:23] <dooglus> felixx: if you're registered here, you can /msg me
[07:24] <felixx> im registered on the forums
[07:24] <dooglus> felixx: I mean registered with nickserv on the irc server
[07:24] <felixx> ah
[07:24] <dooglus> felixx: ie. type /msg nickserv register pa$$word
[07:24] <totall_6_7> Where can i go to make a suggestion on Feisty and the desktop affects option
[07:24] <dooglus> felixx: where pa$$word is a secret password
[07:24] <felixx> righ
[07:24] <felixx> t
[07:24] <dooglus> felixx: then /msg dooglus hi
[07:25] <Ursinha> now i can receive pvt messages :(
[07:25] <Ursinha> oops :)

[07:26] <dmhouse> Anyone know if it's possible to control Rhythmbox without it having focus? I.e. I want to use Win-C as Play/Pause, Win-V as Next Track and Win-X as Previous Track at any time, similar to Amarok's Global Shortcuts?
[07:26] <nagyv> totall_6_7, the former holds for feature requests too, I think
[07:26] <mikejanssen> hmm...i just installed the nvidia-glx drivers for my vid card...and its not showing all the resolutions i can have
[07:26] <systest> Is there a method to setup multiple network configs and have the system select the most approrpriate one at boot?  e.g. netmanager but without having to log in.
[07:26] <cox377> Ursinha: when i tried it said that i had no root partion, so now change root to 6gb and logical ext3 to 150gb
[07:26] <totall_6_7> thanks nagyv
[07:26] <cox377> Ursinha: + a 1gb swap
[07:26] <Ursinha> cox377, ok
[07:27] <Ursinha> cox377, i would put a little more on /
[07:27] <cox377> Ursinha: its only for a little web browser
[07:27] <felixx> do i need to log in now that im registered?
[07:27] <rambo3> systest, man interfaces
[07:27] <Ursinha> cox377, in / you're going to have the whole system
[07:27] <Ursinha> cox377, a feisty installation uses about 3gb
[07:28] <cox377> Ursinha: i've got a p3/450mhz thought i would stick a 160gig in it and its been sooooooooooooooooooo much hassle with this grup 18 error
[07:28] <cox377> Ursinha: just install lamp
[07:28] <cox377> Ursinha: brb
[07:28] <felixx> once i register my nick with nickserve do i need to login ?

[07:28] <navets> can anyone here tell me how i can access my other hard drive on my ftp server
[07:29] <systest> rambo3: "mapping" cool, hadn't seen that before.  Thanks.

[07:30] <livingdaylight> clarjon1, hola amigo
[07:30] <hugo> anyone here knows how customize the ubuntu alternate cd
[07:30] <livingdaylight> Can someone advise me on webcams? ive got a 'softtech' webcam. Anyone got any idea how i might get this working?
[07:30] <DoctorOwl> Is there a list anywhere of which really big companies use Ubuntu?
[07:31] <rambo3> this list -> [] 
[07:31] <felixx> dooglus: you still there?
[07:31] <Melanzine> tu sera la dans une heure?
[07:31] <DoctorOwl> rambo3: Lol it's empty.
[07:31] <frojnd> any program like wget for windiws to download and not streaming videos??
[07:31] <Melanzine> crotte

[07:32] <psusi> frojnd: what?
[07:32] <dooglus> felixx: nope :)
[07:32] <rambo3> DoctorOwl, check out http://www.canonical.com/partners
[07:32] <dooglus> felixx: you should see a separate tab with my name on it
[07:32] <frojnd> psusi: instead of watching video on web page, I wanna download it ..
[07:32] <felixx> im familiar with irc
[07:33] <livingdaylight> I want to live in the United States of UBUNTU
[07:33] <gordboy> am i right in thinking the S scripts in /etc/rcS.d/ are called one time at boot, and that the default runlevel is 2 ?
[07:33] <felixx> as far as its functions
[07:33] <felixx> i did see a tab
[07:33] <psusi> frojnd: so right click the link and choose save
[07:33] <felixx> and tried to get a response
[07:33] <dooglus> felixx: heheh, I'm not logged in!
[07:33] <felixx> doh!
[07:34] <systest> gordboy: sort of
[07:35] <gordboy> systest, i'm more used to /etc/inittab and a rc.sysinit script, then the runlevels
[07:35] <systest> gordboy: the scripts for each runlevel are in /etc/rc<level#>.d
[07:36] <gordboy> right
[07:36] <systest> so it's /etc/rc2.d for RL 2
[07:36] <gordboy> indeed
[07:37] <DoctorOwl> rambo3: Ok done thanks
[07:37] <gordboy> i do fc5/6 and gentoo. but i'm getting there with ubuntu. i only installed it to get mythtv, but i'm liking apt-get and synaptic a lot
[07:38] <rm130> hell when i try to install opera, i get this error: This application conflicts with other installed software. To install 'opera' the conflicting software must be removed before.

[07:46] <isti> Is there any program like Cinema 4D on ubuntu ?
[07:47] <Stormx2> isti: modeling software, basically?
[07:47] <mcsd> is there a good wiki out there for making a live cd?  I have this which is very brief using Paul's Boot CD but I cannot seem to make it work with ubuntu 6.10 http://www.geocities.com/potato.geo/pbcd.html#download
[07:47] <unimatrix9> Cinema 4d : maybe  this http://www.blender.org/
[07:48] <catid> mcsd: there is already an ubuntu 6.10 live cd
[07:48] <Stormx2> mcsd: Making one from scratch?
[07:48] <mcsd> yeah but I added beryl ...yes scratch
[07:48] <Stormx2> mcsd: Adding apps yourself, etc?
[07:48] <catid> mcsd: you might want to just edit the existing iso
[07:48] <isti> Stormx2: yes where you make built cars,... in 3D
[07:48] <Stormx2> mcsd: Hmm. Maybe modify the existing one?
[07:50] <mcsd> how would I modify the original iso?
[07:50] <catid> hrm, not sure how to open another network with xchat on the live cd..
[07:50] <catid> it closes when i run /server XYZ
[07:51] <nagyv> catid, CTRL+S
[07:51] <catid> that causes it to "save transcript"
[07:51] <totall_6_7> thanks again nagyv i posted it

[07:52] <Yggdrasil> hahha awesome!! got a fresh fresh install of ubuntu on my laptop/main workstation. first fresh install in like 1.25 years
[07:52] <catid> yay
[07:53] <nagyv> Yggdrasil, and what did you made a fresh install? upgrading?
[07:53] <Yggdrasil> huh ?
[07:53] <Yggdrasil> i had to do it with no cd drive was the pain in the arse.
[07:54] <isti> Hy!!  Is there any program like Cinema 4D on ubuntu ?
[07:54] <catid> isti: check out Blender
[07:54] <unimatrix9> whats is the ubuntu answer to system roll back , timemachine or and deepfreeze?
[07:55] <Garnol> hi guys ... i have a problem with feisty .. (ubuntu 7.04) .. it cant load the Xserver drivers i think .. it just says, that it cant load the Xserver probably
[07:55] <sharms> unimatrix9: our answer is we do our best not to destroy your system in the first place
[07:55] <catid> unimatrix9: there are a few options..  the one i know most about is LVM2, which requires you to install from the alternate cd
[07:55] <isti> catid: thanks
[07:55] <catid> unimatrix9: you can set restore points like in windows ME (i think), called snapshots
[07:55] <unimatrix9> sharms it for the school project
[07:55] <tokyo25> garnol are you installing 7.04?
[07:56] <unimatrix9> so multi user and no control!
[07:56] <sharms> unimatrix9: there are lvm snapshots, but it is not easily configurable by novice
[07:56] <Garnol> tokyo25: no .. i just loaded it trough the LiveCD
[07:56] <catid> unimatrix9: i disagree with sharms.. the manual isn't hard to understand and you can use evms to edit the partitions graphically
[07:56] <tokyo25> did it load fine are you using it? or does it not work before the live cd loads
[07:57] <unimatrix9> lvm snapshots?
[07:57] <sharms> catid: That is what I call "being real".  It may come easy to those already very technically inclined, but I would love to see 98% of the people here do it
[07:57] <Huffameg> Hi! Can anyone help me with my DVDplayer?

[08:00] <noname1> but it never failed me on other systems
[08:01] <FakeOutdoorsman> Yggdrasil: you might need to change group too, so you could do "chmod newuser:newgroup -R /folder/blah

[08:02] <Kinux> Hey All

[08:03] <izmaelis> hi, i'm trying to install ubuntu-server 7.04, but I get error complaining about installing libc6 in base system installation part
[08:03] <navets> can someone please help me fix my sound
[08:03] <navets> i have no master volume control
[08:03] <Huffameg> My problem is: I use Totem DVDplayer. When I put in a DVD it will start playing directly without going through the DVDmenu. But when I want to use the menus and first start Totem and then press OpenDisc, I only get  the message that it lacks a component or plugin or something..
[08:03] <padee> unimatrix9: i would like to show pictures on several screens in a little internet cafe... simultaniously
[08:03] <|chiz|> Kinux, its easy to install
[08:03] <|chiz|> Kinux, I've never tried to configure it
[08:03] <fooooobarella> bye
[08:04] <Kinux> i have downloaded it fromt he packet manager, but i dont knwo how to set it up! i cant find a exe file...am recently n00b from windows
[08:04] <Kinux> package*
[08:04] <SlimeyPete> Kinux: if oyu used the package manager to download it then it will have been automatically installed and configured for you.
[08:05] <|chiz|> Kinux, its a command line tool, it's called gcc
[08:05] <SlimeyPete> Kinux: and for what it's worth, binary files on Linux aren't usually called .exe
[08:05] <|chiz|> Kinux, its stands for the gnu c compiler
[08:06] <Garnol> anyone here who installed XGL on DapperDrake ??
[08:06] <Kinux> ah right,thanks for the info
[08:06] <Huffameg> ?
[08:06] <Kinux> i just tried gcc ,but all i got was "no input files"
[08:06] <|chiz|> Kinux, look at the man page for gcc too
[08:06] <Kinux> any idea to what this means chiz?
[08:06] <SlimeyPete> Kinux: yeah... you have to say "gcc <c source file>"
[08:06] <unimatrix9> padee, why not make it easy for yourselve and use the screensaver and cast the jpegs with that?
[08:07] <nagyv> Kinux, what are you doing? you would like to compile something from source?
[08:07] <|chiz|> Kinux, you might want to take a look into makefiles as well
[08:07] <SlimeyPete> Kinux: gcc is not a graphical program - you don't write code in it like you do in, say, Visual Studio. You write code in another editor, save it to a file and then run gcc on the file to compile it.
[08:07] <Kinux> honestly i dont know! i have just started learning C and i need an compiler
[08:07] <nevermore> gcc is for you then
[08:07] <isidoro> !xdtv
[08:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xdtv - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:08] <Huffameg> DVD, anyone?
[08:08] <SlimeyPete> Kinux: just load a text editor, write your C, save it to a file and then run gcc on the file
[08:08] <nagyv> Kinux, and probably you will find plenty of tutorials using google.
[08:08] <SlimeyPete> it'll make a file called a.out
[08:08] <SlimeyPete> which you can run by typing "./a.out"
[08:08] <cox377> i've trying to copy some files to a mount but it says
[08:08] <unimatrix9> padee : you can use gl slide show , or fspot slide show on the screensaver ...
[08:08] <Garnol> anyone here who installed XGL on Ubuntu 6.06 ??
[08:08] <SlimeyPete> Kinux: try joining #gcc and asking for help in there - they know more :)
[08:09] <Kinux> ah right, thanks for the help chiz and Slimey :)

[08:10] <danshtr> hi all, is it sane to use 2.6.21 on unbuntu 7.04 ?
[08:11] <taavi> danshtr: only if you need something in 2.6.21
[08:11] <unimatrix9> padee : simultanously is a bit of a problem thats true....but the screensaver would start at the time you set when not active used....

[08:11] <concept10> zaggynl, dude thanks alot, I didnt see those packages for feisty, and im too lazy to figure out these build errors
[08:11] <cox377> whats the command to copy certain files to a certain directory
[08:12] <taavi> compiling your own kernel does take some time but for me they've worked well
[08:12] <izmaelis> cox377: cp
[08:12] <danshtr> is there a kernel upgrade howto for ubuntu. (i tried to google it, but maybe i used the wrong keywords)
[08:12] <lizardmenke> cox377 cp
[08:12] <taavi> there is
[08:12] <taavi> try the forums search
[08:12] <Answer> Anybody a wpa_supplicant LEAP genius?  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20217/
[08:13] <Grummus> but you may loose some device drivers because kernels from distributions are almost never stock kernel.org kernels
[08:13] <padee> unimatrix9: well, i rather would like a solution for starting a stream like with vlc

[08:24] <ferronica> Is there any application to check my download and upload speed???
[08:24] <Grummus> az, wget <url> should download the file <url> from the web regardless of it's content
[08:24] <jason__> do a speed test ferronica
[08:24] <az> Grummus, yes it does. but i want to fetch all files in a directory without having to specifiy each file individually
[08:25] <Horscht> hi
[08:26] <cox377> can someone help me withy something please
[08:26] <jason__> ferronica u can go to speed guide . net to see if u got ur setting right on ur connection
[08:26] <Horscht> what's a good alternative to ktorrent? It's being banned on a few closed tracker.
[08:26] <lizardmenke> cox377 did you try sudo cp ?
[08:26] <Pici> !torrent | Horscht
[08:26] <ubotu> Horscht: Torrent clients: Azureus (Java), BitTornado (Shell with python front-end), KTorrent (KDE/Qt)  -  Bittorent FAQ: http://www.bittorrent.com/FAQ.html
[08:27] <darkos> Alguien habla espaol?
[08:27] <crdlb> that really need to be upgraded

[08:27] <ubotu> darkos: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[08:27] <Horscht> I tried deluge, but that one seems to have problems with trackers. In some torrents, it just doesn't get any tracker adress
[08:27] <Grummus> az, try "wget -r" should do the trick, what does the console say when you try to download the directory?
[08:27] <Horscht> Azureus is a memory hog :/
[08:27] <savetheWorld> so am i
[08:27] <crdlb> Horscht: I use rtorrent myself (but it's terminal-based)
[08:28] <Pici> Horscht: Theres also deluge, but I've never used it
[08:28] <crdlb> it's the lightest and fastest client I've ever used
[08:28] <jason__> did u all hear about dell putting ubuntu on some systems
[08:28] <savetheWorld> yes
[08:28] <darkos> cuales son los servers en espaol?
[08:28] <savetheWorld> no
[08:28] <Pici> darkos: /j #ubuntu-es
[08:28] <az> Grummus, i turned the recursive option on as well. but wget only looks for "html" files, even though i told it to accept pdf files.
[08:28] <jason__> thats going to be cool when they do
[08:28] <brum> anybody running zimbra collaboration suite on feisty?
[08:28] <Horscht> so, there's no real light weight gui alternative to Ktorrent?
[08:29] <darkos> pici de donde erS?
[08:29] <savetheWorld> az: look for the systen wide wget rc file. probably in .etc .somewhere
[08:29] <idefixx> Horscht: wine + utorrent
[08:29] <ferronica> jason: what is speed guide?
[08:29] <Pici> darkos: no hablo. type this:   /j #ubuntu-es
[08:29] <jason__> its a gudie to tell u how to set ur connetion
[08:29] <az> Grummus, i did there is nothing in that /etc/wgetrc file concerning filetypes. most options are commented out.
[08:29] <frojnd> Can someone help me on that one? I wanna download htm with wget. I have username on that html page and password. So If I wanna download http://something.movie.htm I have to go into the directory I wanna save this file? and than: wget -6 (don't know where to put username and password) url   ???
[08:29] <darkos> ok gracias
[08:29] <Horscht> I wanted to refrain from using wine. I'd prefer a "native" linux client. But It looks like utorrent is the best option
[08:30] <cinex_> hi
[08:30] <jason__> hang on i got a site save that tells u how to set it up righthold on ok
[08:30] <jason__> what kind connection u have
[08:30] <Grummus> az, the url you give to wget need to contain clickable links to the files, how does the webpage look like when you open it in a browser?
[08:30] <ferronica> jason: any other application to see my download and upload
[08:30] <brimstone> i'm trying to pxe boot from a edgy iso using preseed files and the installer is complaining about a package file. can anyone help or point me in the right directoion?
[08:31] <Trynemj0el> 644 didn't help much, aborted my session in less than 10 seconds due to lack of permissions. So i used 744, and it all appers to be well now :)
[08:31] <jason__> http://www.goitexpert.com/entry.cfm?entry=ubuntuguide go there
[08:31] <tecta> when will pidgin be in the repositories ????
[08:31] <az> Grummus, it's an apache like directory listing. but i think you could the bug :-) no links to the files!
[08:32] <Grummus> frojnd, wget http://user:password@somewhere
[08:32] <jason__> about middle of the page it tells u how to set ur connection file to get it to go faster
[08:32] <idefixx> Horscht: i think it is.. for private trackers at least... i dont like azureus personaly and all the linux rest sux imo.
[08:32] <tecta> anyone know?
[08:32] <Trynemj0el> tecta, you can download .deb package if you're having trouble compiling source
[08:32] <jason__> thats how i got mine set up and it goes fast
[08:32] <frojnd> Grummus: tnx
[08:32] <tecta> Trynemj0el, where can i get the deb file at?
[08:32] <Trynemj0el> gimme a sec
[08:32] <jason__> i get 1489 out of a 1500 conection
[08:32] <Horscht> ktorrent is good, but it's unfortunetlly getting banned on a few private trackers :(
[08:32] <jTr0n> wow... i JUST got ubuntu working finally.  grub was hating on me because my bios was autodetecting my drives
[08:32] <tecta> Trynemj0el, do u know what it isn't in the repositories yet ?
[08:33] <idefixx> Horscht: thats because it so no good ;)
[08:33] <captaintrips> anyone know why all my listings but a .pid in the console (ctrl F1) would be black?
[08:33] <Horscht> so, ok. how would the command to start utorrent be then?
[08:33] <az> frojnd, you might also try: wget --http-user=xxx --http-password=xxx <url>
[08:33] <jTr0n> i kept getting error 22 or 17 depending how I installed it.  couldn't find any help online.  alot of people have the error tho
[08:33] <Horscht> I moved the utorrent.exe to usr/bin/
[08:33] <jason__> and if u black list the IPv6 the web pages load alot faster to
[08:33] <idefixx> Horscht: install wine.. then wine utorrent.exe
[08:34] <Horscht> wine is already installed
[08:34] <Horscht> thanks idefixx
[08:34] <captaintrips> bit tornado is good, and u can use apt-get to install it
[08:34] <kitche> jTr0n: error 22 and error 17 is very common for grub
[08:34] <danny3793> Can someone help me with a Live CD i am trying to run on an Acer brand computer i just bought yesterday?
[08:35] <jason__> danny what kind of proccessor u have in it
[08:35] <jason__> amd or a intel
[08:35] <danny3793> AMD Athlon 64 x2
[08:35] <jTr0n> yea all my menu.lst and all that junk were a-ok though was the thing
[08:35] <darkos> #ubuntu-ve
[08:35] <jason__> hang on let me look it up for ya ok
[08:35] <jTr0n> i switched off auto detect for ide drives on my bios though and it worked like a charm
[08:35] <Trynemj0el> tecta, http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=817
[08:35] <danny3793> i downloaded the 64 bit AMD version of Ubuntu
[08:36] <jTr0n> anyways, now i can get into the real meat of linux.  finally start migrating
[08:36] <tecta> Trynemj0el, thanks
[08:36] <danny3793> the computer currently has Vista on it, and for some odd reason they only have a 32bit Vista OS on it
[08:36] <kitche> danny3793: there is only 32bit Vista
[08:36] <captaintrips> because acer is cheap danny3793
[08:36] <captaintrips> lol
[08:36] <danny3793> so im going to just take that completely off and put Linux on it
[08:36] <jTr0n> makes sence danny.  64 bit windows driver support blows
[08:36] <danny3793> ahh, makes sense :P
[08:36] <BraddX> hey, can someone give me a link to Ubuntu Supported Hardware?
[08:36] <jTr0n> and there's hardly any software that will work on 64bit windows
[08:36] <jason__> 7.04 right
[08:36] <BraddX> I can't find it :(
[08:37] <danny3793> i grabbed the 6.06 LTS version
[08:37] <kitche> danny3793: but doesn't matter sicne x86_64 is not 64bit anyways just x86 with 64bit extensions
[08:37] <az> Grummus, thanks! that link is needed to find those pdf files
[08:37] <jTr0n> you'll still see a benefit of 64bit in loading times
[08:37] <jason__> On the boot screen, press F6 "boot options.
[08:37] <jTr0n> kitche:  amd64 is 64bit
[08:37] <jason__> Type in at the end of the current script pci=noacpi
[08:37] <kitche> jTr0n: nope it's not
[08:37] <jTr0n> pretty sure it is
[08:37] <jason__> It is some sort of power management issue
[08:38] <cox377> does anyone know the command to copy a set of files from one directory to another?
[08:38] <jTr0n> its intel that doesn't have tru 64
[08:38] <ferronica> jason: Is there any application like nload
[08:38] <danny3793> ok, thanks i will go try that
[08:38] <jason__> that should work danny
[08:38] <usser> i think jTr0n is right
[08:38] <kitche> jTr0n: is that why all the processors say x86_64
[08:38] <az> bye to Grummus & savetheWorld!
[08:39] <usser> kitche: i'd say that the labels say that to signify that it still supports x86 arch
[08:39] <kitche> ussr: then it's not 64bit
[08:39] <usser> kitche: sure it is just somehow emulates commands of 32bit cpu
[08:39] <ferronica> Is there any application to check my download and upload speed???
[08:40] <citrixx> hello
[08:40] <BraddX> can someone give me a link to Ubuntu Supported Hardware?
[08:40] <jTr0n> hmm yea you're right that its an extension of the x86 instruction set, but it still is true 64bit
[08:40] <citrixx> @ferronica try the network desklet from gdesklets
[08:41] <Grummus> kitche, x86_64 is true 64 bit, it only has i386 downward compatibility
[08:41] <ferronica> citrixx: for that i have to install gdesklet
[08:41] <lizardmenke> ferronica, netspeed applet
[08:41] <variant> ferronica: www.speedtest.net
[08:42] <jason__> ferronica that only thing i know is a speed test http://www.speedtest.net/ that one is the best i have see yet try it
[08:42] <lizardmenke> ferronica, netspeed applet is a gnome applet thet keeps track of down and upload speed
[08:42] <jTr0n> lol what's really funny is I'll get faster speeds from my ISP's speed test than speedtest.net
[08:43] <variant> jTr0n: obviously
[08:43] <jTr0n> i approached them with it and the guy read something back to me about "only our authorized speed test servers will be accepted as benchmarks for your connection"
[08:43] <danny3793> Jason, are you still there?
[08:43] <jTr0n> canaidan ISP's are so shoddy
[08:43] <cox377> does anyone know the command for copying files from one directory to another?
[08:43] <jason__> yeah iam still there

[08:43] <jason__> so it didnt work
[08:43] <cox377> variant: sorry mate can you give me an example

[08:57] <Broccoly> is there disk encryption available in ubuntu?

[08:58] <Ademan> Death_Sargent: may or may not be possible, sadly GNOME is the least customizable of the desktop environments in my opinion

[08:59] <gumpish> What exactly does the GNOME "Volume Applet" control? I muted it but sound still plays in my web browser...
[08:59] <jason__> there is a custom ubuntu called gwubuntu that some guy mad for gamers
[08:59] <Ademan> gumpish: well it controls A LOT of different "volumes" right click on it and hit open volume control, one of those sliders should do what you want
[08:59] <jason__> but iam out have fun guys and i hope ever gets everythingfixed
[09:00] <Ademan> gumpish: also you should be able to set which slider the volume control controls
[09:00] <disinterested> jason: and what does that do?
[09:00] <gumpish> but shouldn't "mute" mute everything it controls? =/
[09:00] <gumpish> hmm
[09:00] <jason__> o it has alot of games on it
[09:00] <Ademan> gumpish: (to set which slider it controls right click on the applet ->properties)

[09:00] <atrus> i had nm-applet connect me to an AP once, only to find that it's the wrong network, private, and useless to me to boot. How can i get it to stop connecting to it automatically, now that it's apparantly on their "good" list?
[09:00] <jason__> u have to download java and flash bc he didnt include it in it
[09:00] <mike71b> Espanol http://www.ubuntu-es.org/index.php?q=forum
[09:00] <Ademan> gumpish: the thing is it's hard for ubuntu to know which "volume" actually mutes/unmutes everything (apparently it's a hardware issue)
[09:00] <Jtoralva> wakarimas
[09:01] <Ademan> gumpish: so you can figure out which one is TRUELY the "master" volume, and use it

[09:17] <crdlb> Opiate137: the bug isn't in feisty
[09:17] <psusi> I also run 64bit, so usually anything proprietary doesn't work
[09:17] <exodus> yes, its some code that I wrote awhile back
[09:17] <crdlb> it's in the nvidia drivers
[09:17] <Opiate137> i have a 512mb geforce 7600 GS i believe

[09:19] <Jakob-> Opiate137, well I was actually more thinking like undoing - not redoing :/
[09:19] <Plupp> hi nathan
[09:19] <Zoofmu> Is there a way you can configure x11vnc to refresh faster then once every 2 minutes, and is there a way to make sure that it doesnt disconnect after the firt user leave and is there a way to make sure that only one IP adress is allowed in (specific ip)
[09:19] <psusi> Geheimnis-: I like to run into problems... only way they will ever get fixed...
[09:19] <kosnick> anyone knows about bluetooth?
[09:19] <Opiate137> jakob: well, to uninstall it, you could insert a wind0ze or whatever junk CD :P

[09:20] <jTr0n> you dual booting with windows or did you just overwrite windows?

[09:21] <treblesix> Hi all. I have a few problems with Ubuntu, but this should be a quick one. I have my  time synchronised with a server in London, yet it is an hour behind when displayed on the panel. Its appears correct in everything else.
[09:21] <kosnick> anyone knows about bluetooth?
[09:21] <Zoofmu> Could anyone tell me what VNC i should run if I want to see the screen??????????
[09:21] <Opiate137> anyone know how to capture video with BT878? xawtv is not working.
[09:22] <Answer> !vnc | Zoofmu
[09:22] <Jakob-> Opiate137, yes I am. Lost all my data :P Thank god for me backupping importnant files quite often.
[09:22] <ubotu> Zoofmu: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[09:22] <Zoofmu> Answer that didnt help :(
[09:22] <Answer> Zoofmu: use vino then
[09:22] <mattwalston> Also, when following the exact instructions from the docs for LDAP authentication, I am able to su to a ldap user but it does not show the correct username in the prompt (I have no name!) or in directory listings (UID #)?
[09:23] <Zoofmu> Answer  I got Xubuntu
[09:23] <Zoofmu> Answer  vino doesnt work in XFCE
[09:23] <Zoofmu> COuld anyone please tell me what VNC is best if u want to see the screen through LAN?
[09:23] <Answer> I just told you three options...

[09:26] <sunnypies> question:  i know all the computer channels on irc that I want like linux and windows,  is there a list out there for other channels like motorcycles?
[09:26] <sunnypies> for irc?
[09:26] <imjones> im on the ubutu screen right now it is going hella slow
[09:26] <Answer> sunnypies: /channels
[09:26] <sunnypies> Zoofmu, what do you want to know?
[09:26] <Zoofmu> sunnypies
[09:26] <Zoofmu> I got ubuntu on the other computer, but I got xubuntu on this one, what VNC server should I run so I can see the desktop from my ubuntu computer?
[09:26] <kosnick> how can i configure bluetooth not to sleep during login screen?
[09:27] <dooglus> I just got home, tried to unlock my feisty desktop, but can't type into the 'password' box.  Any hints how to get back in?
[09:27] <treblesix> thats Vino aint it ?
[09:27] <Grummus> sunnypies, i doubt you find many motorcycle channels on FreeNode ;)
[09:27] <vict0rrr> can anyone tell me what module should I use to connect via rdp on a windows box (xp pro / remote desktop connection) . I have gnome and last version of ubuntu
[09:27] <NeX> I'm wondering if anyone knows a software to calibrate my screen, to change the luminosity, contrast, colors, ...
[09:27] <kdubois_> imjones, you run a disk checker on your hdd
[09:27] <kdubois_> ?
[09:27] <imjones> yes
[09:27] <sunnypies> Grummus, where should i look then?
[09:27] <tux321> when I boot I get grub error 17
[09:27] <dooglus> the password box doesn't seem to be getting focus - I can 'cancel' with the mouse, and I can type this stuff in a virtual console
[09:27] <disciple> Zoofmu have you tried XDMCP
[09:28] <kdubois_> dooglus, that happens to me too sometimes. i blame beryl. hit ctrl alt backspace to restart x
[09:28] <Zoofmu> disciple  omfg.. never even heard of it
[09:28] <Grummus> sunnypies, on another irc network, this one is only about free software development and support
[09:28] <Zoofmu> disciple  I get confused of all these different
[09:28] <Zoofmu> thats why linux sucks so hard compared to windows
[09:28] <dooglus> !info gnome-rdp | vict0rrr
[09:28] <Zoofmu> I mean Windows is so easy
[09:28] <ubotu> vict0rrr: gnome-rdp: Remote Desktop Client for the GNOME Desktop. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.2.2-0ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 102 kB, installed size 312 kB
[09:28] <disciple> It is like VNC but built into Ubuntu
[09:28] <sunnypies> Grummus, oh ok, do you know some names of other ones?
[09:28] <keir> is there any way of running mac os x programs under linux? i want to run omnigraffle...
[09:28] <vict0rrr> thx
[09:28] <tux321> how can I reinstall grub

[09:29] <Erealz> anyone run ekiga?
[09:29] <imjones> what the heck is logical disk error
[09:29] <Zoofmu> I got ubuntu on the other computer, but I got xubuntu on this one, what VNC server should I run so I can see the desktop from my ubuntu computer?
[09:29] <Plupp> how do i know that a odule
[09:29] <disciple> Gottago
[09:29] <Grummus> sunnypies, my chat has about 30-50 different networks by default
[09:29] <strabes> Zoofmu: The only reason you think that is because you already know how to use Windows so well. Linux isn't windows and doesn't behave exactly like windows, so you are intepreting the difference as inferiority. After you learn the differences, I think you'll come to the same conclusion as most of us in this channel: that linux is indeed superior to windows.
[09:29] <Plupp> how do i know that a module is loaded?
[09:29] <dooglus> Zoofmu: it's not hard - just enable 'remote desktop' in the 3rd menu
[09:29] <sunnypies> Grummus, oh i see them thanks
[09:29] <Zoofmu> strabes Linux will never be superior... it got crap support :/
[09:29] <strabes> tux321: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=224351&highlight=grub
[09:29] <Zoofmu> dooglus  OMFG
[09:30] <Zoofmu> dooglus Do you even understand English?
[09:30] <Geheimnis-> Plupp: the command I know is "lsmod"
[09:30] <dooglus> Zoofmu: how would you do it in Windows?  Windows doesn't even come with a VNC client
[09:30] <strabes> Zoofmu: Linux support is free. What kind of support does microsoft give you?
[09:30] <Geheimnis-> Plupp: add to this the name of the module
[09:30] <abo> LjL, I've been trying that for some time... couldn't figure out how to do it yet...
[09:30] <Zoofmu> dooglus  but it got a GUI so it's easy
[09:30] <Zoofmu> strabes  Google
[09:30] <LjL> abo: what specifically do you need to do?
[09:30] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I understand English, yes.  I even know how to use apostrophes.
[09:30] <Plupp> thnx Geheimnis :)
[09:31] <Zoofmu> dooglus then you understand the fact that Xubuntu doesnt have what you just suggested
[09:31] <tux321> strabes: thanks
[09:31] <Kinux> Hey all!
[09:31] <Opiate137> anyone know how to capture video from a TV card?
[09:31] <Opiate137> without xawtv, since it fails to load.
[09:31] <bobbo> anybody know how to empty the recycle bin from the Terminal?
[09:31] <strabes> Zoofmu: that's right. there's no centralized windows support sites. you have to do all the searching on your own. You can't just come to a convenient IRC channel or website like ubuntuforums.org to ask for help. You have to figure everything out on your own.
[09:31] <dooglus> Zoofmu: you said you wanted to see the desktop of your ubuntu computer on xubuntu, and asked which server to use, right?
[09:31] <Plupp> so the ndiswrapper is loaded but the device doesnt work, any clues?
[09:31] <strabes> tux321: see also https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[09:31] <Zoofmu> dooglus  no
[09:31] <Zoofmu> dooglus  other way around
[09:32] <Zoofmu> strabes  well I DONT NEED support in ms..
[09:32] <Zoofmu>  windows*
[09:32] <strabes> Zoofmu: that's because you already know how to use it....
[09:32] <Kinux> does anybody know how to build gcc compiler? or a link to  a site explaining in detail how? would be much appreciated!
[09:32] <Kinux> i am a complete n00b btw, only moved from windows 2 weeks ago
[09:32] <Zoofmu> strabes  never need, if I wanted to use VNc I just google, install and configure
[09:32] <Zoofmu>  strabes  the thing is, linux got less support, thereforel ess hits and easier understand
[09:32] <dmhouse> Kinux: why do you want to build GCC, then?
[09:32] <Zoofmu> strabes all HOWTO's are old and not uopdated
[09:32] <dooglus> Zoofmu: use any vnc server you like.  x11vnc works well.  vino is what ubuntu uses by default
[09:32] <Zoofmu> strabes  If I like now want to use VNC, I have to ask like a houndred times
[09:32] <Kinux> hhave just started learning C
[09:33] <Zoofmu> dooglus  I am using x11vnc
[09:33] <Kinux> have*
[09:33] <Geheimnis-> oh, while I'm thinking about it, is there any software for Ubuntu that would allow me to use audio and video with MSN users on Windows ?
[09:33] <dooglus> Zoofmu: so what's the problem?
[09:33] <Zoofmu> dooglus but the refresh is like 3 minutes a pop
[09:33] <kitche> Kinux: sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[09:33] <dmhouse> Kinux: install it through Synaptic, then.
[09:33] <dooglus> Zoofmu: you're using compiz or beryl?
[09:33] <Zoofmu> dooglus neither
[09:33] <Geheimnis-> the only one I know that is closest to what I want is aMSN
[09:33] <dooglus> Zoofmu: the update should be real time then
[09:33] <danny3793> can someone help me with an X Server problem??
[09:34] <bobbo> Geheimnis - Have you tried GAIM? I think that supports Video (If your cam has drivers)
[09:34] <Zoofmu> dooglus  guess what,, THEY ARENT
[09:34] <Zoofmu> sorry
[09:34] <dooglus> bobbo: I don't think pidgin supports video, does it?
[09:34] <iMilad> I had to install DBus 0.62 for compiling a program. Now whenever I start my computer I see an error message saying: "INTERNAL ERROR: Failed To Initialize HAL" Does anybody a solution for this?
[09:35] <danny3793> anybody wanna help with my X Server issue?..
[09:35] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I used x11vnc earlier today and was getting 37fps from it
[09:35] <Kinux> sudo apt doesnt seem to be found in the package manager:S
[09:35] <Geheimnis-> hmm yes I have.. GAIM didn't have video as far as I can remember (maybe in a newer version it does), aMSN has video since 0.95 or 0.96
[09:35] <Zoofmu> dooglus  what client?
[09:36] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I was on a Windows machine.  I think I was using the RealVNC client
[09:36] <Zoofmu> dooglus  Im on ubuntu using vncviewer
[09:36] <bobbo> Pidgin/Gaim doesnt have video support according to my friend
[09:36] <Zoofmu> vncviewer adress password
[09:36] <dooglus> Zoofmu: it might be worth trying vnc4viewer
[09:36] <imjones> what the heck is logical disk error
[09:36] <lajos> Hi everybody! I just wanna tell my laptop running ubuntu feisty with beryl... COOOL :)) thanks for the developer team.
[09:37] <lizardmenke> Zoofmu: on ubuntu you might wanna try krdc
[09:37] <Geheimnis-> lajos: congrats
[09:37] <Zoofmu> lizardmenke krdc?
[09:37] <Zoofmu> lizardmenke  is it installed, perhaps u could give its real name?
[09:37] <ferronica> lizardmenke: what is your speed????
[09:37] <lizardmenke> Zoofmu: it is in synaptics
[09:38] <dooglus> I can't unlock the gnome screensaver.  the password box won't take any keystrokes.  how can I get around this?
[09:38] <Kinux> kitche and dmhouse, build essential is installed, i don't know what to do now or where to find it :(
[09:38] <Zoofmu> lizardmenke  why is it better then vncview ?
[09:38] <bobbo> dooglus - Manual restart?
[09:38] <dooglus> bobbo: I'm worried that might cause data loss
[09:38] <kitche> Linux: build-essential installs gcc for you among other developer tools
[09:38] <Zoofmu> dooglus  I fixed the FPS, however its not 37 fps
[09:38] <dooglus> Zoofmu: how?
[09:38] <lizardmenke> Zoofmu: I use it all the time works fine for me
[09:38] <bobbo> always a last resort
[09:38] <imjones> squashfs error
[09:38] <imjones> what the heck is that toooo
[09:38] <Zoofmu> dooglus beryl apparently... however still very slow for LAN :(
[09:38] <dooglus> bobbo: I'm on my last-but-one resort at the moment, namely asking you lot
[09:38] <jTr0n> how do i get the universe and multiverse in feisty?
[09:38] <Zoofmu> lizardmenke whats it called?
[09:39] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I asked you about beryl already - you said you weren't using it?

[09:39] <neverblue> Megaqwerty, yes
[09:39] <Zoofmu> dooglus thats why I saiid apparenylu, didnt know (it didnt have woobly windows)
[09:39] <Geheimnis-> Plupp: maybe if you say what brand and model, somebody can help you out
[09:39] <crdlb> Megaqwerty: why are you using konsole in gnome?
[09:39] <lizardmenke> Zoofmu: its a KDE client really, but works fine on  Gnome
[09:39] <Zoofmu> lizardmenke thats for KDE Im running gnome, that will just slow things down
[09:40] <Plupp> netgear wg121
[09:40] <kitche> Kinux: gcc <souce file> to compile it
[09:40] <neverblue> Megaqwerty, use gnome-terminal :)
[09:40] <Zoofmu> dooglus what is the difference between x11vncserver and vnc4server?
[09:40] <dooglus> Zoofmu: if you run x11vnc -noxdamage it'll run better, but still not great.  basically VNC doesn't work well with beryl or compiz
[09:40] <Bicchi> I need to setup a machine as a kiosk pc. Only web browser access. How do i lock down gnome so that a user can not do modifications like changing stuff around?
[09:40] <Megaqwerty> crdlb: neverblue: 'm using Yakuake
[09:40] <Zoofmu> Does anyone know what VNC server is the best, Im using x11vnc right now, is there one better and faster?
[09:40] <Megaqwerty> *I'm
[09:40] <dooglus> Zoofmu: vcn4server exists
[09:40] <jTr0n> how do i get the universe and multiverse in feisty?
[09:40] <lajos> yeah gnome terminal is transparent if u set
[09:40] <LjL> !universe > jTr0n    (jTr0n, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:40] <josh_>    Does anyone here think KDE 4 will come default in Gutsy Gibbon?
[09:40] <bobbo> Kinux   if you get an error use gcc -Wall <filename> to show the error details
[09:40] <nevermore> !universe
[09:40] <crdlb> Megaqwerty: there's a gnome version of that whose name escapes me
[09:40] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[09:41] <Megaqwerty> crdlb: tilda?
[09:41] <crdlb> yes
[09:41] <gdb> Zoofmu: freenx is not as flexible as vnc, but performs far far far better
[09:41] <lizardmenke> ferronica: http://www.speedtest.net/result/124435131.png
[09:41] <Zoofmu> gdb why does it perform far far better?
[09:41] <neverblue> Megaqwerty, well, you didnt say that in the first place :)
[09:41] <gdb> i'd rather use a shell than vnc
[09:41] <Megaqwerty> crdlb: I remember I didn't like it for some reason....I'll check it out again though.
[09:41] <Geheimnis-> Plugg: are you running feisty?
[09:41] <gdb> Zoofmu: I would guess because it's written better?
[09:41] <jTr0n> that community guide is just for 6.06
[09:41] <dooglus> Zoofmu: the difference between x11vnc and vnc4server is that x11vnc shares your existing desktop, and vnc4server creates a new desktop, allowing someone else to have their own session while you continue using your desktop
[09:41] <jTr0n> i tried using that one
[09:42] <Plupp> yep
[09:42] <ferronica> lizardmenke: woww 1Mb
[09:42] <ferronica> lizardmenke: are you using LAN
[09:42] <lizardmenke> ferronica: i am a lucky man :p
[09:42] <Geheimnis-> Plupp: ever heard of ndiswrapper? I'm not sure whether it's needed with feisty, but otherwise that would be the way to go
[09:42] <kosnick> my bluetooth keyboard sleeps before i login and then i can do nothing . Can i have it awaken all the time?
[09:42] <OUTTAKIND> hey u room i had the same problem with my wifi
[09:42] <dooglus> Zoofmu: freenx sends compressed X protocol over the wire, whereas VNC sends bitmaps.  that's why it's so much faster.  Also, NX does some clever caching, whereas VNC doesn't.
[09:43] <lizardmenke> ferronica: yes
[09:43] <Zoofmu> dooglus does it work with same VNC client or does it require a new client?
[09:43] <Plupp> Geheimnis-:ndiswrapper sees the hardware and driver but when i mount it nothing happens!!
[09:43] <OUTTAKIND> wifi sucks, madwifi sucks, ndiswrapper sucks
[09:43] <dooglus> Zoofmu: it's a completely different protocol.
[09:43] <dooglus> Zoofmu: so you need a different client.
[09:43] <jTr0n> that guide for universe and multiverse is for 6.06.  i need one for feisty.  its different
[09:43] <leftyfBX> anyone know of a good rss "ticker" for gnome? preferably one that runs in the gnome panel
[09:43] <Plupp> OUTTAKIND - thought so...
[09:44] <kosnick> my bluetooth keyboard sleeps before i login and afterwards i can not use it anymore so no login. Is there any way to keep it awaken all the time?

[09:46] <kosnick> someone about bluetooth keybord?
[09:46] <jTr0n> firefox was freezing my system on the live cd, seems fine now
[09:46] <crdlb> jTr0n: if you check all the boxes, that will give you universe and multiverse
[09:46] <neverblue> terendul, run it in a shell, and note the errors
[09:46] <RockClimber> I'm assured in #openoffice.org that font replacement in options->tools should work if the font to be replaced isn't installed, but the ubuntu version doesn't seem to do this. Eg set Arial to be replaced by Liberation Sans, open MS Word doc using Arial and OOo uses default font (bitstream). Install Arial font and retry and now OOo does font replacement.
[09:46] <jTr0n> i only have two boxes.  two copies of the install cd
[09:46] <bobbo> Kinux   might be a syntax error in your code
[09:46] <Geheimnis-> Plupp: you can try using another driver, or make sure that ndiswrapper is being loaded on startup
[09:46] <crdlb> jTr0n: that's not the right tab
[09:46] <jTr0n> oh i c.  got it
[09:46] <jTr0n> i had a moment
[09:47] <Geheimnis-> that actually took me some time to get my wireless interface running on my laptop too
[09:47] <terendul> neverblue: ok, I'll do that, if it has time to output the errors first before hanging.

[09:50] <bobbo> Isnt GCC default on Ubuntu?
[09:50] <dooglus> Kinux: ubuntu is a binary distribution.  all the stuff is available as binary packages.  you don't need to compile gcc - it's available pre-compiled
[09:50] <andrewy> i'm trying to help someone get wireless up in feisty. what's the quickest way to see what driver wlan0 is using?
[09:50] <jdraper> for ff js reentrant stack overlf0
[09:50] <sunnypies> Anyone, how do I locate my java folder?
[09:51] <dooglus> Kinux: "sudo apt-get install build-essential" will install gcc and a few other useful packages
[09:51] <jTr0n> lol vulnerabilities and real attacks are two different things
[09:51] <dooglus> Kinux: the thing is, gcc is written in C anyway, so you need a C compiler (like gcc) to compile it anyway...
[09:51] <zshzn> heh, its jdraper. having fun?
[09:51] <jdraper> always
[09:51] <Geheimnis-> Plupp: hmm, I couldn't tell, maybe a USB non-wifi has better chances.. or maybe linksys ones are better documented by the community?
[09:51] <jTr0n> samuris wore less armour but they could've taken down a knight no problem
[09:51] <Kinux> Dooglus: i have build-essential installed, how do i use gcc?
[09:52] <jdraper> i have no idea what your point is jtr0n
[09:52] <dooglus> Kinux: I guess the real question is "why did you think you wanted to build gcc?  what are you really trying to do?"
[09:52] <Plupp> Geheimnis- ill check it on the net, thanx for your time
[09:52] <jdraper> your analogy has no connection to application exploits
[09:52] <Geheimnis-> Plupp: n/p
[09:52] <jdraper> its not a fight
[09:52] <Plupp> Over and out!
[09:52] <Kinux> use gcc for testing C i am learning
[09:52] <bobbo> Kinux    gcc -Wall <C source file you want to compile> -o <Executable Name (Make One Up)>
[09:53] <Grummus> jdraper, that's what NoScript is for in firefox
[09:53] <jTr0n> the point is, firefox has more known vulnerabilities than say IE, but it is attacked less because it's so kung fu
[09:53] <jdraper> uh
[09:53] <jdraper> sure
[09:53] <leftyfBX> LjL , thanks but i'm looking for more of a "ticker" solution .. i have all this real estate on my panel and i'd love to have 1 or more feeds scrolling across it
[09:53] <jdraper> i have no idea what your point is
[09:53] <Grummus> jdraper, you really visit unknown websites with java script enabled?
[09:54] <jdraper> hell yes
[09:54] <afief> Kinux, use something like Anjuta or KDevelop
[09:54] <jTr0n> with IE, all the known vulnerabilities have popular exploits distributed around the net fairly quickly, and thus it is attacked more often
[09:54] <Grummus> jdraper, then don't complain
[09:54] <jTr0n> with firefox, figuring out how to exploit a vulnerability is much much harder
[09:54] <jdraper> im not complaining
[09:54] <jdraper> im just lolling at firefox
[09:54] <afief> Kinux, if you're interested in knowing how compiling really works drop to the command line and gcc -o (executable name) (list of files)
[09:54] <knoppix> hello to all
[09:54] <zshzn> I don't know if jdraper is complaining, I'd say lecturing
[09:54] <jdraper> jtr0n: stop talking about shit u dontk now anyhting about
[09:54] <jdraper> ff is easier 2 explpoit
[09:54] <jdraper> cuz its open sores
[09:54] <SimAtWork> is there any way to get 3d hardware accelleration with a ATI Tech 3D Rage Pro AGP (1x/2x) ?
[09:54] <Kinux> bobbo i have tried what you suggested but is giving me error
[09:54] <jTr0n> HAH
[09:54] <bobbo> jTr0n   Copy & Paste POC code from Milw0rm , Skiddie style
[09:54] <SimAtWork> i never use ati's but that's all this computer has.
[09:54] <jdraper> so u can easily load up ida with debug symbols and shit
[09:55] <jTr0n> and you tell me i dont know what i'm talking about
[09:55] <jdraper> and have all the dbg syms
[09:55] <bobbo> Kinux  paste the error
[09:55] <jTr0n> OS doesn't mean insecure fool
[09:55] <jdraper> and see the code flow easier
[09:55] <Kinux> afief: ah right, cheers

[09:55] <LjL> leftyfBX, if you want to install gdesklets, gdesklets-data has a couple of RSS plugins... suppose some might work in a ticker-like fashion
[09:55] <jTr0n> bobbo - u know it
[09:55] <leftyfBX> i'm looking to put the ticker right at the top there
[09:55] <Kinux> bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[09:55] <jdraper> its way easier 2 exploit an open sores app

[09:55] <Be-snd> Hi everyone
[09:55] <knoppix> I want to know if one dell laptp can be used with linux without problem?
[09:56] <Answer> how to install java plugin for mozilla firefox?
[09:56] <alexpe> hello, wireshark cannot play voip calls, i get the error cannot open /dev/dsp O_WRONLY, i can play sound with xmms and i am part of audio group...
[09:56] <knoppix> the laptop modell is
[09:56] <leftyfBX> knoppix , i'm running Feisry on my Dell Inspiron 9300 jsut fine
[09:56] <afief> knoetje, use the lifeCD and check
[09:56] <Kinux> lol
[09:56] <jorgp> leftyfBX: what weather app is that?
[09:56] <knoppix> Dell Latitude C610
[09:56] <Answer> knoppix: I had a dell inspiron 600m, and a dell latitide 2200 no problem
[09:56] <leftyfBX> jorgp, goodweather
[09:56] <jTr0n> its probably easier to find application vulnerabilities without the source, then to read through the source and try to find somewhere you can exploit
[09:56] <Kinux> afief: i tried the gcc -o but returns this message "gcc: argument to '-o' is missing
[09:56] <Kinux> " any ideas?
[09:56] <LjL> jdraper, jTr0n: this channel is for support, discussing the merits or shortcomings of a piece of software just for the sake of it is not appropriate for this channel. please go on in #ubuntu-offtopic
[09:56] <jdraper> how is that jtr0n
[09:56] <Answer> Kinux: -o needs output file after it
[09:56] <LjL> !language | leftyfBX
[09:56] <ubotu> leftyfBX: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:56] <lizardmenke> LeftyBX: did you install python feedparser in order to use the rss?
[09:57] <jTr0n> good point.  i have to restart x anyways.  brb
[09:57] <afief> Kinux, you have to actually specify what name you want the exectuable(the file you run) to have after the -o
[09:57] <Be-snd> does enybody knows something about getting sound working on a laptop
[09:57] <bobbo> Kinux like gcc test.c -o test
[09:57] <afief> for example gcc -o hello_world hello_world.c
[09:57] <LjL> leftyfBX, there's such a ticker for KDE. i really seem not to find any for GNOME
[09:57] <leftyfBX> lizardmenke , which feed parser are you talking about? Like I said, i'm looking for a ticker solution to go into my gnome panel .. i don't want to use gdesklets .. they are very limited in function
[09:57] <afief> bobbo, you are always faster than me:D
[09:57] <noname1> Be-snd | get what working?
[09:58] <jdraper> help i am using reiserfs and it keeps dropping my inodes like nina reiser
[09:58] <knoppix> thanks folks for all
[09:58] <cables> Where can I put a command to have it execute when X is started?
[09:58] <lizardmenke> leftyfBX: ok sorry did see that
[09:58] <leftyfBX> LjL , i saw the kde one ... don't think it works without "kicker"
[09:58] <Kinux> bobbo: so i have made a file, already named it blur.c, so i need to type in terminal gcc blur.c -o test? that correct?
[09:58] <afief> Kinux, it is
[09:58] <bobbo> Kinux   that would work
[09:58] <Dracula}X{> Hello allI was just wondering if there is a way to share my internet connection through firewire in ubuntu?

[09:59] <Be-snd> i have toshiba laptop and in edgy en even in feisty i cant get sound working
[09:59] <cables> jorgp, go to Power Management

[09:59] <bashusr> i nochalantly clicked "yes" to an update and now my networking doesn't work :(
[09:59] <afief> bobbo, lucky me:D
[09:59] <Be-snd> i searched several forums
[09:59] <stupac> This isn't a big deal, but I'm using 7.04 and the desktop on a cube effect stopped working, it only shows a single desktop and I can't switch them
[09:59] <bobbo> bye!
[09:59] <felixx>  do i remove gnash w/ add/remove orr synaptic?
[09:59] <lizardmenke> leftyfBX: I remember havin a ticker in fedora w. Gnome, can't rmember the name though
[10:00] <jch> Dracula}X{: Get shorewall and firestarter
[10:00] <Be-snd> but didnt found anything wich solved my problems
[10:00] <Kinux> bobbo : i have tried that and now i get "gcc: blur.c: No such file or directory
[10:00] <Kinux> gcc: no input files
[10:00] <Kinux>  "
[10:00] <LjL> leftyfBX: no indeed it won't.
[10:00] <elba1> Do I have to do anything special to have a second monitor work in Ubuntu?
[10:00] <dooglus> Kinux: just "gcc file.c" to compile a C program
[10:00] <Dracula}X{> jch I can get these through synaptic, right?
[10:01] <jch> Dracula}X{: Yes, or apt-get install ...
[10:01] <afief> Kinux, you need to navigate to the directory where your files are saved
[10:01] <terendul> neverblue: I've just crashed firefox and saved the output. I just have a few lines with "** Message: GetValue variable 1 (1)". There's no real exception output.
[10:01] <Dracula}X{> ok lemme do that, by the way I thank you for your assistance
[10:01] <afief> Kinux, where did you save?
[10:01] <Be-snd> anybody interested ?

[10:03] <Kinux> afief:   i know have ":~/Desktop$
[10:03] <Kinux> " that correct?
[10:03] <cables> piglit, there's an Advanced button somewhere that allows you to change which HD Grub is installed on
[10:03] <dooglus> Kinux: correct
[10:04] <gi0> hi. to whom can i address application pronblems of php?
[10:04] <Answer> gi0: #php
[10:04] <Kinux> dooglus: so what do i do from there?
[10:04] <afief> Kinux, yes, it means that you're in your(the ~ sign means your home folder) "Desktop" folder. now do the gcc -o test blur.c
[10:04] <dooglus> Kinux: gcc file.c
[10:04] <dooglus> Kinux: where file.c is the .c file you've written
[10:04] <gi0> the channel #php seems to be too crowded

[10:05] <shane_> Does anyone know the difference between Gnome and KDE?
[10:05] <cables> gi0, try ##php, that's the correct channel.
[10:05] <piglit> cables: i want to edit menu.lst manualy
[10:05] <dooglus> shane_: they're just 2 different desktops
[10:05] <cables> piglit, that's a different issue.
[10:05] <dooglus> shane_: with different widget sets, and different applications
[10:06] <cables> piglit, to edit menu.lst, hit alt-f2, and type "gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[10:06] <shane_> dooglus:What's a widget set?
[10:06] <gi0> cables: doesnt work neither
[10:06] <dooglus> shane_: it has been said that KDE is more "Windows like" and GNOME is more "OS/X like" - but I don't know how true that is.  shane_ widgets are things like buttons, menus, etc.
[10:06] <Kinux> afief: dooglus: i have tried both those inputs, but i just get a new line with :~/Desktop$ again :S
[10:06] <afief> Kinux, that means it worked
[10:06] <shane_> dooglus: Okay I'm using Gnome
[10:06] <dooglus> Kinux: that means your program has been compiled.  type "./a.out" to run it
[10:07] <cables> gi0, you aren't identified to NickServ... try identifying, then join the channel.

[10:07] <Kinux> dogglus: just ".a.out"
[10:07] <cables> SnakesAndStuff, I don't use it for newsreading, but I know that Thunderbird has that functionality.
[10:08] <Kinux> i get command not found
[10:08] <dooglus> Kinux: ./a.out
[10:08] <afief> Kinux it's ./a.out, and if you used my command ./test
[10:08] <Kinux> sweet it worked XD
[10:09] <dooglus> Kinux: astonishing :)
[10:09] <Kinux> lol
[10:09] <cables> gi000, I just checked, and it seems that you need to be identified for that channel to work
[10:09] <afief> Kinux, congratulations:D now pick up the Linux Device Driver book and start hacking the kenel
[10:09] <Kinux> afief: whoa whoa whoa! haha
[10:09] <RAH66> hey all

[10:10] <noname1> what's a good console(text) Linux game, multiplayer?
[10:10] <dooglus> noname1: nethack
[10:10] <dooglus> noname1: sorry.  missed the 'multiplayer' but
[10:10] <Kinux> dooglus:  so does that way work with other C programmes, that contain more than printf?
[10:10] <dooglus> bit
[10:10] <afief> dooglus, make menuconfig && make  but you know that already:P
[10:10] <piglit> cables: the thing is i want to not install grub when i install 7.04 on /dev/sdb and when i am done with the 7.04 install i can edit menu.lst on /dev/sda (ubuntu 6.06) so i dont mess up 6.06
[10:11] <gi000> cables: thanks, now it works
[10:11] <dooglus> Kinux: should do.  until you get to multi-file programs, with separate header file directories, libraries, etc.
[10:11] <RAH66> hey I want to go to linux got the live cd of ubuntu and it scared the shit out of me being used to xp can any one help me out?

[10:11] <cables> piglit, I'm not sure how to do that
[10:11] <piglit> cables: or is this a unwise thing to do?
[10:11] <dooglus> Kinux: when a program gets bigger, people generally write a 'Makefile' to aid in compiling it.

[10:14] <ditoa> however i can report that it all works just fine

[10:14] <keith> thanks
[10:14] <gejr> in gconf-editor i need to use <Control><Alt>Next to reach <Control><Alt>Page Down...does anyone know the equivalent for Page Up?
[10:14] <Jowi> keith, on IRC? /nick name
[10:14] <RAH66> problem is I used virtual box and it stops on a gray scren
[10:14] <ditoa> as i have done it many times in workstation 5.5
[10:14] <LicensedLunacy> ditoa: I was thinking more along the lines of copying a backup image to the machines, like norton ghost
[10:14] <Jowi> freeza, there is. xserver-xorg-video-intel
[10:14] <abd> afeif: I needed help , it's resolved
[10:14] <hendrixski> dooglus, yes. I'm inside gnome when I click on the icon in the file browser it works, when I type ./app it gives an error

[10:15] <i-am-garffi> hi. i got a hp pavilion tx1000 tablet/laptop today ,and i cannot install ubuntu <any version on it> anyone can help me??
[10:15] <DVS01> my girlfriend is a total computer newbie. i am considering putting ubuntu on the pc that i am building for her. do you guys have any recommendations as to what sort of setup i should make for her?
[10:15] <dooglus> hendrixski: from the standard ubuntu repositories?
[10:15] <freeza> jowi: what video card do you have?
[10:15] <DVS01> i asked before, but had to do some work, missed the backlog
[10:15] <T-Pup> DVS - just load terminal and nothing else
[10:15] <Dracula}X{> lol
[10:15] <T-Pup> so it boots to a command line
[10:15] <ditoa> DVS01, what will she use the system for?
[10:15] <RAH66> I dont know what gnome is or terminals or anything but really want to know how to get started
[10:15] <T-Pup> she'll love it
[10:15] <T-Pup> ;)
[10:15] <underwatercow> now, can someone please explain to me why I get the following error when I try to ssh to my home computer: "/usr/bin/X11/xauth:  /home/keith/.Xauthority not writable, changes will be ignored"
[10:15] <hendrixski> dooglus, no.  that one doesn't work with the latest plugins... so i got it off the eclipse.org site
[10:15] <DVS01> ditoa: web browsing and multimedia
[10:16] <DVS01> T-Pup: she will.. just not yet =D
[10:16] <ditoa> what multimedia? music? video?
[10:16] <dooglus> hendrixski: you're putting a "./" in front of exactly the same thing as you're clicking on to run it normally, and it's complaining?
[10:16] <Jowi> freeza, 945GM currently using i810. I tested the "intel" driver and it works with DRI but does not display the correct resolution. that's why I am wondering. they both seem to work.
[10:16] <Kinux> afief: dooglus: so everytime i want to compile something i need to use the following commands... cd ~/Desktop....gcc file.c...../a.out..? that good???
[10:16] <ditoa> firefox + adblock for web browsing
[10:16] <Horscht> !libnotify
[10:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about libnotify - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:16] <ditoa> there are dozens or audio players
[10:16] <dooglus> Kinux: ./a.out is just to run it, not to compile it
[10:16] <ditoa> vlc for video
[10:16] <ditoa> fspot for images
[10:17] <Kinux> dooglus: ah ok
[10:17] <dooglus> Kinux: you can do just "./a.out" over and over to run it multiple times without recompiling
[10:17] <afief> Kinux, cd ~/Desktop only if the file is in your desktop
[10:17] <dooglus> Kinux: I suggest you make a Makefile to make it easier to compile
[10:17] <pjma1> can anyone help me with my iPod problem above?
[10:17] <Be-snd> underwatercow, think you dont have the right ownship of that file
[10:17] <dooglus> Kinux: edit a file called "Makefile" in the same directory as your C source file:
[10:17] <hendrixski> dooglus, yes.  I'm very confused by it, because I thought that clicking on an executable essentially ran ./ on the command line.. maybe I'm missing an argument???
[10:17] <underwatercow> Then when I'm ssh'd and try to run programs, I get errors: X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
[10:17] <underwatercow> kate: Fatal IO error: client killed
[10:17] <Zoofmu> dooglus why does my keyboard get altered?
[10:17] <DVS01> the best thing about linux and my gf is that she wont have any spyware problems =D
[10:17] <Kinux> Makefile? erm (lost again)
[10:17] <dooglus> Zoofmu: greasy hands?
[10:17] <RAH66> ms virtual PC screws up when I get into ubuntu some screen res issue any help?
[10:17] <ditoa> i think makefile will just complicate things :)
[10:17] <Zoofmu> dooglus  no please why?
[10:18] <bgrupe> RAH66: use vmware
[10:18] <afief> dooglus, don't you think makefiles are too advanced for him?
[10:18] <ditoa> gcc -o outfilename inputfile.c
[10:18] <bgrupe> virtual pc is a waste
[10:18] <dooglus> afief: I don't think so.  A simple 2-liner will save him a lot of typing
[10:18] <RAH66> thanks what should I use?
[10:18] <underwatercow> makefiles aren't too complicated
[10:18] <underwatercow> lol
[10:18] <raw-bin> greets. A problem. I need to use hibernate-disk and I need it to unload the ipw3945 module at hibernate time. However ipw3945 and ieee80211 have a circular dependency. What I would like is to make hibernate-disk attempt a modprobe -r operation on ipw3945 rather than an insmod which I assume its doing now. Any clues ?
[10:18] <ditoa> RAH66: MS does not support ubuntu so i would use vmware workstation
[10:18] <MystaMax> hello, how do I rename the name of drive from sda5 to say, "media" under the "Places" panel?????
[10:18] <Zoofmu> dooglus  after running x11vnc my keyboard get changed, all the buttons and stuff gets mixed up, and now for some odd reason I cant hold dont backspace to remove a chunk of letters I have to press it many times
[10:18] <jmas> are the repositories down?
[10:18] <ditoa> or you can use vmware server which is free but not as nice/easy to use
[10:18] <bgrupe> RAH66: vmware player if you want to keep it simple, or vmware server for more functions
[10:18] <afief> dooglus, a lot of typing he should actually know... not to mention that this way he will never check what flags gcc can handle
[10:19] <RAH66> MS Sucks thats why I wana get ubuntu
[10:19] <bgrupe> both free as in beer
[10:19] <dv5237> bash: gpg: command not found <--- what packages do i need to install?
[10:19] <pegger> why is there no freeradius-postgresql package for ubuntu
[10:19] <sobersabre> hi guys.
[10:19] <Be-snd> why use postgres
[10:19] <beni> is there any skype linux client
[10:19] <sobersabre> any argentinos ?
[10:19] <skinnypuppy1334> Anyone here experienced with Vmware server running on Ubuntu???
[10:19] <Kinux> dooglus: "edit a file called "Makefile" in the same directory as your C source file:" what is,and how do i do that? :)
[10:19] <bgrupe> beni: yeah skype has one for linux
[10:19] <Be-snd> if its for user authentication i suggest useing ldap
[10:19] <dooglus> Kinux: make a new file called Makefile in the same place as file.c.  Make it a 2 line file:  line 1 says "a.out" and line 2 says "        gcc file.c" (where line 2 begins with a TAB, not 8 spaces).
[10:20] <gi000> beni: there is. but it crashed your system if someone calls you
[10:20] <Jowi> yes beni, download it from skype.com (or from the repos)
[10:20] <pegger> any ideas?
[10:20] <jmas> are the repositories down?
[10:20] <freeza> Jowi, do "sudo apt-get install 915resolution" and restart X that should fix ur res problem
[10:20] <RAH66> What is Beryl????
[10:20] <sobersabre> any south americans in here ?
[10:20] <pegger> Be-snd: because my application supports it, plus I like it better
[10:20] <gi000> beni: better use wengo or gizmo
[10:20] <hendrixski> !beryl | RAH66
[10:20] <ubotu> RAH66: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[10:20] <Jowi> freeza, no, that was not my question at all.
[10:20] <sobersabre> RAH66: beryl-project.org
[10:20] <Kinux> dooglus: ah think i got it :)
[10:20] <dooglus> Kinux: then you can just type "make" to build your program, rather than typing the gcc command each time.
[10:20] <freeza> you saying you not getting the right resolution right?
[10:20] <skinnypuppy1334> Check out the BERYL vids on youtube to get a good feel
[10:20] <cables> RAH66, http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2690866008461615113&q=BEryl
[10:20] <Be-snd> ok in that case
[10:20] <dooglus> Kinux: if it doesn't need compiling (because you didn't change the source) it won't rebuild anything
[10:20] <Zoofmu> dooglus  after running x11vnc my keyboard get changed, all the buttons and stuff gets mixed up, and now for some odd reason I cant hold dont backspace to remove a chunk of letters I have to press it many times
[10:20] <beni> gi000: which is better?
[10:21] <jmas> are the repositories down?
[10:21] <jmas> are the repositories down?
[10:21] <mandelum> hello
[10:21] <RAH66> so what is it like a style for ubuntu (theme for xp example)???
[10:21] <skinnypuppy1334> Anyone here experienced with Vmware server running on Ubuntu???
[10:21] <skinnypuppy1334> Anyone here experienced with Vmware server running on Ubuntu???
[10:21] <Kinux> dooglus: ah sweet, kind of like you do with C and erm*thinks* naming variables??
[10:21] <jmas> are the repositories down?
[10:21] <freeza> i810 driver also supports dri as well, you trying to run beryl or compiz with aiglx?
[10:21] <cables> !repeat | skinnypuppy1334
[10:21] <ubotu> skinnypuppy1334: 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
[10:21] <Jowi> freeza, I am saying that both drivers work with accellerated 3d, but only i810 set correct resolution (with 915res of course).
[10:21] <cables> jmas, not for me... try a different mirror
[10:21] <MystaMax> skinnypuppy1334: whats problems are you having?
[10:21] <freeza> thats because the other one is a very old driver, older than i810
[10:21] <cables> RAH66, it's more than a style
[10:22] <jmas> this is what I get
[10:22] <hendrixski> dooglus, I figured it out!  that particular terminal was running chroot... I just forgot to close it
[10:22] <sobersabre> guys, I have a friend who's mother started eating some bugs she keeps in a small box with wooden sawdust
[10:22] <RAH66> how do you install it?
[10:22] <jmas> http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/Release.gpg: Cannot initiate the connection to 8080:80 (0.0.31.144). - connect (22 Invalid argument)
[10:22] <mandelum> please help me to copy in linux, I just dont get anything copied when trying to copy my home folder to an external hard drive although I am logged in as root
[10:22] <Jowi> freeza, I am wondering what the difference is between the two drivers. the "intel" driver is the new one.
[10:22] <cables> RAH66, it provides effects that go on top of your existing themes
[10:22] <dooglus> hendrixski: right...  :)
[10:22] <cables> RAH66, it's in the Add/Remove manager
[10:22] <Horscht> how can i change the colors of libnotify?
[10:22] <sobersabre> she's been sent these by her friends from Argentina.
[10:22] <shane_> hey my mum does that

[10:22] <dooglus> hendrixski: that's kind of what I was getting at when I told you to use a terminal from inside of GNOME...  opening a new one would have worked I think
[10:22] <shane_> danny?
[10:22] <cables> RAH66, you need to install your 3d drivers first.
[10:22] <Endlessguitar> Hello:)

[10:23] <dooglus> Kinux: not really...  a Makefile just describes how to build the various source files.
[10:23] <Endlessguitar> :S
[10:23] <sobersabre> does she eat bugs ?!

[10:25] <jTr0n> i can't get my widescreen 1680x1050 to work now.  it was working before i installed the nvidia drivers
[10:26] <hendrixski> RAH66, Beryl can be kind of overwhelming.  but when you get it configured the way you like it is really nice
[10:26] <shane_> sobersabre:I'm only on AIM to pass the time while my ubuntu updates to 7.04
[10:26] <Endlessguitar> How I do install my graphic settings right in linux ubuntu now have I got geforce 7600 card into my computer
[10:26] <afief> Kinux, believe me, this is how i learned much of what I know(which isn't much i must admit:)
[10:26] <beni> gi000: where to get gizmo?
[10:26] <skinnypuppy1334> I really like Beryl !
[10:26] <beni> gi000: cant find it in the reps
[10:26] <sobersabre> shane_: of course, you suddenly failed to answer the 1st significant question that required a non mentioned information from you ...
[10:26] <som1> im trying to boot to my ubuntu cd from a floppy disk. i was told i have to do this using a grub floppy, but googling didnt tell me how to make the floppy disk on windows.. how do i do it?
[10:26] <Endlessguitar> hugifrb

[10:26] <shane_> sobersabre:What?
[10:26] <RAH66> thanks hendrix but I cant stop using xp now too much at risk
[10:26] <sobersabre> shane_: keep watching tv ...
[10:26] <sobersabre> :)
[10:26] <hendrixski> RAH66, there are a lot of great videos about Beryl on youTube.  do a search, and your eyes will pop
[10:26] <sobersabre> thanks for the participation.
[10:26] <Zoofmu> dooglus  after running x11vnc my keyboard get changed, all the buttons and stuff gets mixed up, and now for some odd reason I cant hold dont backspace to remove a chunk of letters I have to press it many times
[10:26] <MystaMax> skinnypuppy1334: yes. The guest machine can already be created. Its just like adding more hardware
[10:27] <afief> Endlessguitar, there is a great guide on www.belyl-project.com
[10:27] <jTr0n> som1 - lol had the same problem.  i boot into the ubuntu live cd to make it eventually
[10:27] <freeza> Jowi, i just read that website, the new driver adds support for X3000, so if you have an older card there is no difference
[10:27] <gi000> beni: gizmoproject.com i think
[10:27] <dooglus> Zoofmu: sounds familiar
[10:27] <Endlessguitar> thanx:)
[10:27] <Zoofmu> dooglus ?=
[10:27] <Jowi> !nvidia | Endlessguitar (have you read this one?)
[10:27] <gi000> or using debian/ubuntu with apt-get

[10:27] <som1> jTr0n, i dont know how to do this..
[10:27] <Endlessguitar> jowi thanx
[10:27] <shane_> Sobersabre:I was watching In your face
[10:27] <gi000> beni: i think its in universe
[10:27] <RAH66> vmware is free right?
[10:27] <Endlessguitar> can you please remote me? ubotu?
[10:27] <sobersabre> what channel ?
[10:27] <hendrixski> RAH66, If you're looking for a solid business platform.. then yeah, Beryl would be too much of a risk, less risk than vista though
[10:27] <shane_> Sobersabre:But it ends at half past
[10:27] <sobersabre> hmm..
[10:27] <shane_> Sobersabre: Adverts now
[10:27] <jTr0n> its easy to image a floppy in linux.  you've gotta pay $15 if you want to do it in windows
[10:27] <__mikem> RAH66 why do you need vmware?
[10:27] <som1> jTr0n my personal computer can just boot a cd
[10:27] <sobersabre> what chan ?
[10:27] <sobersabre> :)
[10:27] <shane_> Sobersabre:Bravo
[10:28] <jTr0n> burn the iso to a cd then
[10:28] <RAH66> wana run ubuntu on xp
[10:28] <LjL> RAH66: only as in price
[10:28] <shane_> Sobersabre:121 or something on sky
[10:28] <__mikem> !wubi | RAH66
[10:28] <ubotu> RAH66: wubi is an unofficial Ubuntu installer for Windows users - more info is at http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[10:28] <afief> jTr0n, nice one:D
[10:28] <dooglus> Zoofmu: does "xset r on" fix the auto-repeat?
[10:28] <som1> jTr0n wtf? for $15 i can drive home, make a floppy disk and come back, and still get some change
[10:28] <hendrixski> RAH66, you can run Ubuntu on XP inside of a virtual machine
[10:28] <__mikem> RAH66 you should use wubi, its alot better than vmware
[10:28] <Zoofmu> dooglus  yes but x11vnc always makes my keys weird and removes auto.reoeat
[10:28] <skinnypuppy1334> Thanks for the VMserver advice Max !!
[10:28] <__mikem> !wubi > RAH66
[10:28] <MystaMax> no prob
[10:28] <RAH66> ok ok
[10:28] <nathan_> Or you could have XP run inside Ubuntu on a VM. :)
[10:28] <schrollini> Anyone have experience mounting Compact Flash cards?  I'm getting IRQ errors.
[10:28] <afief> som1, you'll actually need the software;)
[10:29] <__mikem> RAH66 check out the PM that ubotu just sent you
[10:29] <|chiz|> i know how to fix auto repeat
[10:29] <sobersabre> shane_: bravo tv ?
[10:29] <som1> afief yeah, but i dont run windows home. im at my grandparents house.
[10:29] <freeza> xp on virtualbox in feisty is very fast
[10:29] <Endlessguitar> jowi
[10:29] <hendrixski> RAH66, www.vmware.com  and download vmware server, then load Ubuntu in it.  Very safe and easy
[10:29] <shane_> Sobersabre: Not sure if it's Bravo Tv, I think it's just Bravo
[10:29] <nathan_> How is that Virtual box?
[10:29] <Endlessguitar> can you please remote me 2 install the thing?
[10:29] <sobersabre> ok
[10:29] <__mikem> hendrixski, why does he have to use vmware, wubi is a much better option
[10:29] <nathan_> I've heard of it recently and I here it has quite a bit more features.
[10:29] <afief> soml, well I don't have much experience with floppies, but you could probably use a CD instead
[10:29] <RAH66> wow ubotu
[10:29] <jTr0n> i'm finaly trying to migrate my home desktop to linux.
[10:29] <cables> Yafray rendering in Blender doesn't work since my upgrade to Ubuntu 7.04... have any other Ubuntu users noticed this?
[10:30] <som1> afief i have the CD. this computer doesnt boot from cds on its own
[10:30] <Zoofmu> dooglus
[10:30] <Jowi> freeza, ..and it seems they added better Xv extension as well to get rid of the blue video screen (happens in mplayer for example when video window is not in focus). maybe I should try this one...
[10:30] <Zoofmu> how do make so ur keyboard doesnt get all weird?
[10:30] <hendrixski> __mikem, I just googled wubi, first time I heard of it... you're right...lookslike the better option
[10:30] <hendrixski> __mikem, is it stable though?
[10:30] <nathan_> I've noticed a few minor little pesky bugs in Feisty.
[10:30] <som1> Zoofmu lol, prolly change ur x config so it doesnt have weird languages
[10:30] <afief> som1, well, I suggest you start warming the motor(I know it sucks, but what choice? pirating software?)
[10:30] <__mikem> hendrixski its very stable
[10:30] <Jowi> Endlessguitar, I don't have a nvidia card so I would be a lousy troubleshooter if anything went wrong I'm afraid...
[10:30] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I don't know.  It doesn't make my keyboard all weird
[10:30] <Zoofmu> som1  what?
[10:30] <__mikem> wow, join/part spam is bad in here
[10:30] <nathan_> Like stopping gdm to terminal mode.
[10:30] <som1> Zoofmu define weird then
[10:30] <Endlessguitar> Oh
[10:30] <RAH66> wubi oooooooooooooooooooh nice
[10:30] <nathan_> no prompt
[10:30] <Endlessguitar> okey:S
[10:30] <gluttony> which of my partitions is my user named drive on? and can i change it?

[10:32] <hendrixski> wow Is there a way to turn off the join/part messages in IRC?
[10:32] <Jowi> Endlessguitar, a very similar app to winamp is called xmms. simply search for it and install it in synaptic.
[10:32] <__mikem> hendrixski, the only thing that you should warn them about, setup is fully automated, but it takes a long time
[10:32] <afief> Zoofmu, which one? :O
[10:32] <RAH66> so what is wubi?
[10:32] <ScrAm`> Hey. I can't get my digital camera to work on Ubuntu. I've connected it via USB, but it's not listed.

[10:33] <brentc4m> Endlessguitar, audacious is practically the same as xmms, but with gtk2
[10:33] <Answer> Is canonical support real or what?  there is no phone number and the submit button does not work on their contact page
[10:33] <Shai|afk>  I have Ubuntu on an old laptop and when I upgraded the kernel, it kept the old one and has used up all of my hd space I had left - if I delete all the files in /boot that have the old version number, will that break anything?
[10:33] <som1> winamp doesnt sort things by modifiers.
[10:33] <freeza> what digital camera is it?
[10:33] <Endlessguitar> what is gtk2?
[10:33] <afief> Zoofmu, well, gnome has vino installed, maybe you just need to make sure they both use the same protocol?
[10:33] <Endlessguitar> is it better?
[10:33] <Zoofmu> afief NO dude listen
[10:34] <Zoofmu> afief I DONT WANT TO RUN the server on ubuntu I want it to run on xubuntu
[10:34] <brentc4m> Endlessguitar, just trust me, if you want a winamp2 clone for linux, get audacious
[10:34] <Zoofmu> afief vino is just a server
[10:34] <dooglus> Zoofmu: you can install vino in xubuntu
[10:34] <Answer> Zoofmu: vino-server is the server; vino is the client
[10:34] <Endlessguitar> ok

[10:35] <ubotu> answer: vino: VNC server for GNOME. In component main, is optional. Version 2.18.1-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 202 kB, installed size 2184 kB
[10:35] <Zoofmu> Answer  well I dont think xubuntu has vino-server
[10:35] <Endlessguitar> I dunno which one I will take
[10:35] <Zoofmu> dooglus why should I do that?
[10:35] <Endlessguitar> audacious or gtk?
[10:35] <Answer> Zoofmu: apt-get install vino-server

[10:36] <brentc4m> Endlessguitar, gtk is the library programs use to draw to your screen, most ubuntu programs use gtk2, xmms uses gtk1, so it won't fit in with the rest of your desktop. audacious is an xmms rewrite using gtk2
[10:36] <Endlessguitar> audacious
[10:36] <dooglus> Zoofmu: vino is a Gtk app, but aren't all the XFCE apps Gtk?

[10:37] <afief> Zoofmu, how about telling us WHICH package you installed first?

[10:38] <hendrixski> puntoUY, it's called CDT, and it lets you do C++ on ecliipse, and it used to be really terrible, but now it's pretty good actually
[10:38] <__mikem> RAH66, it takes a while, you are better off using one of those download accellerators to download the thing faster and place it in the dirrectory that wubi is attempting to save the file its downloading.
[10:38] <Zoofmu> afief  it sucked because it had low refresh rate, and it removed autorepeat for my keyboard and when I shut it down it made my keyboard and mouse all weird siwtched places with all the buttons
[10:38] <user__> como va esto?
[10:38] <MystaMax> RAH66: or you can use ShipIT and have CDs sent to your house
[10:38] <puntoUY> hendrixski, so.. i download eclispe?
[10:38] <skinnypuppy1334> ctrl + wheelmouse scrolls the text bar up and down... running feisty
[10:38] <__mikem> When you do this, wubi will see the file, think it already download it and proceed with instalation
[10:38] <Answer> Zoofmu: tightvnc offers many options
[10:39] <Zoofmu> Answer  does it have  GUI?
[10:39] <Zoofmu> Answer  ALL of them offer many options..

[10:42] <Klowner> stupid question but if a person lost their /etc/init.d/apache2, anyone know of a way to get the default one back?

[10:43] <dooglus> Answer: maybe you meant to say "dpkg -L x11vnc | grep conf"?
[10:43] <BrendanM> brentc4m, how do I go about doing that?
[10:43] <mazza558> when my PC switches between processing speeds, especially when opening applications, music stutters for a second. It's getting really annoying :( (AMD)

[10:43] <gsiliceo> im using ubuntu and im a total newb, when i installed an nvidia fx5200 windows detected it but in ubuntu the kernel panicked in the boot process
[10:43] <hendrixski> puntoUY, hope that you like it.  I swear by Eclipse for whatever language I want to program in.. the plugins for it just plane rock!
[10:43] <strabes> BrendanM: you could create a group, add that user to the group, and chown it to that group...? just an idea
[10:43] <Answer> ScrAm`: send me output of "lspci -v"
[10:43] <dooglus> Xerus: no, but I would like to.  I have the same problem.

[10:44] <Zoofmu> dooglus  Answer  afief how do I setup vino, I just downloaded it
[10:44] <brentc4m> BrendanM, don't chmod devices, the changes won't be saved after rebooting
[10:44] <dooglus> Xerus: there are a bunch of Windows machines here with a workgroup name, but this ubuntu machine thinks its on a different workgroup or something
[10:44] <__mikem> RAH66 last I checked, installing form CD hasn't been implimented yet
[10:44] <Answer> Zoofmu: run "vino-preferences"
[10:44] <Jowi> __mikem, in xchat: right click on the channel button on the bottom of the window and uncheck the option.
[10:44] <hendrixski> RAH66, when you install Ubuntu, or even before, a good place to ask questions is www.ubuntuforums.org
[10:44] <Indi> Hi all

[10:44] <brentc4m> BrendanM, usermod -a -G kmem username

[10:44] <afief> Zoofmu, I think there was some GTK interface to configure it. i don't remember it very well though
[10:44] <dooglus> Zoofmu: run "vino-preferences"
[10:44] <RAH66> I have ubuntu 5.04 here is it any good?

[10:44] <flo__> salut
[10:44] <BrendanM> brentc4m, ok I did "sudo addgroup <user> kmem" but I'm still getting an issue
[10:44] <BrendanM> ok, lemme try that

[10:44] <Answer> ScrAm`: just pm its ok
[10:44] <__mikem> RAH66 that is very old
[10:44] <RAH66> lol
[10:44] <afief> Zoofmu, how does that contradict anything i just said?
[10:45] <qazwsxq> spam : *          http://s19.bitefight.pl/c.php?uid=30101
[10:45] <RAH66> yeah?

[10:45] <radioaktivstorm> hullo again.... i cannot return from suspend properly..... any pointers? the google gods are not listening much. :/
[10:45] <brentc4m> BrendanM, you have to logout and back in for group changes to take effect, maybe even restart
[10:45] <gsiliceo> anybody know how to install the drivers for a graphic card (nvidia fx5200) from a rescue disk, i can't access ubuntu(the kernel panics in the boot process)
[10:45] <BrendanM> ah, ok, thanks
[10:45] <__mikem> RAH66 also it requires the alternate install cd, (the one that uses the text mode installer)
[10:45] <haku> strabes: no it's broken. actually it works sometimes, but it has very very long delays even if it works so that is a problem
[10:45] <BrendanM> lemme try that
[10:45] <Zoofmu> afief well VINO DOESNT WORK
[10:45] <Zoofmu> great
[10:45] <Zoofmu> GREAT
[10:45] <Indi> can any one help me install Beryl on my ubuntu dapper

[10:45] <Zoofmu> Connection refused
[10:45] <RAH66> so I musnt download it then?
[10:46] <strabes> !installing > haku
[10:46] <dooglus> Zoofmu: you need to stop x11vnc first?
[10:46] <MystaMax> Zoofmu: dude, I've got xfce installed on ubuntu with VINO running RIGHT NOW
[10:46] <Zoofmu> dooglus  I dont even have x11vnc anymore
[10:46] <Zoofmu> MystaMax vino on xubuntu or ubuntu?!?!?!
[10:46] <afief> Zoofmu, do you mind shutting up for a minute and not shouting? I'm checking your x11vnc!
[10:46] <Answer> Zoofmu: Vino works.  Did you enable local loopback?
[10:46] <i-am-garffi> VFS cannot open root device "(null)" boot option (8,1) -------------> i cannot install ubuntu on my laptop. anyone can explain why? please...
[10:46] <siloko> radioaktivstorm:  check your swap disk is properly working (try 'free' from a console)
[10:46] <Zoofmu> Answer yeah it son
[10:46] <Zoofmu> its on
[10:46] <Answer> afief: there is no x11vnc conf file it is all command line
[10:46] <MystaMax> Zoofmu: Xubuntu = xfce + ubuntu
[10:46] <RAH66> wow ok 20 mbs is downloaded for the day
[10:46] <RAH66> yay
[10:46] <hendrixski> puntoUY, then Eclipse is for you.  It's what they use to teach programming in schools now, and it's got more features than you can shake a stick at
[10:46] <Zoofmu> MystaMax  I know but
[10:46] <afief> Answer, I just saw that too
[10:46] <Zoofmu> MystaMax  what do u got the vino on, the ubuntu or the xubuntu?
[10:46] <Answer> Zoofmu: in web browser go to http://localhost:5800
[10:46] <__mikem>  RAH66 you might be able to download it faster if you use a download manager
[10:47] <RAH66> ok
[10:47] <haku> strabes: should I have seen somethinf after that !installing line you wrote?
[10:47] <afief> Zoofmu, okay, I know how to configure it now, what are you trying to do?
[10:47] <hendrixski> __mikem, is he DLing from the site or using bittorent?
[10:47] <puntoUY> hendrixski, thanks for the help, i will try it :)
[10:47] <afief> Zoofmu, by the way "man x11vnc" helps a lot
[10:47] <freeza> u will love eclipse
[10:47] <mnemnonic_> j #123net
[10:47] <dooglus> RAH66: using a bittorrent client is usually the fastest way to get ubuntu
[10:47] <Zoofmu> afief  no it doesnt :(
[10:47] <__mikem> hendrixski, wubi currently uses bittorrent
[10:47] <Answer> man helps those who help themselves
[10:47] <puntoUY> freeza, xD
[10:47] <hendrixski> puntoUY,  you're welcome  :-)  enjoy
[10:47] <__mikem> hendrixski however the alternate iso is not heavily seeded
[10:48] <RAH66> still is 700 meg eeeeshhhh
[10:48] <afief> Zoofmu, why not?
[10:48] <gsiliceo> anybody know how to install the drivers for a graphic card (nvidia fx5200) from a rescue disk, i can't access ubuntu(the kernel panics in the boot process)
[10:48] <Zoofmu> Answer  localhost:5800 doesnt work, isnt it on 5900 really?
[10:48] <afief> Zoofmu, how about you just tell me what you want to do and let me figure out how to do it?
[10:48] <freeza> if you are making super simple cpps it takes some messing around to figure it out but once you get the hand of it its cool
[10:48] <lusepuster> hi folks - my clock app shows time wrong, it's 2 hours late. When I open 'date and time preferences', it shows a blank window. Is this a known problem?
[10:48] <dooglus> afief: he wants 2 VNC servers: one on :0 and one on a new :1
[10:48] <Steven_Laptop> gsiliceo, what steps have you done?
[10:49] <gsiliceo> none i just plugged in the card in the motherboard
[10:49] <Zoofmu> afief  CAN SOMEONE please for the sake of GOD, please help me with VNC, been crying all day wich one should I use for LAN vnc, and I want to be able to see what the person does and also being able to get my own X so I can do stuff without the person seeing what I am doing
[10:49] <gsiliceo> and ubuntu stopped loading
[10:49] <BrendanM> So I'm still getting a "Can't open "/dev/mem", full screen mode not available: Permission denied" error. Any other thoughts?
[10:49] <Zoofmu> afief  sorry wrong
[10:49] <hendrixski> __mikem, ah cool.... so his download will get faster
[10:49] <Zoofmu> afief  sorry ignore that message
[10:49] <MystaMax> Zoofmu: here is the tutorial I followed, and works fine, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=122402
[10:49] <afief> well? x11vnc -display :0 & ; x11vnc -display :1
[10:49] <afief> Zoofmu, okay, what DO you want?
[10:49] <Zoofmu> afief  hold on
[10:49] <__mikem> hendrixski, he will only get better speeds in bit torrent only if more people decide to seed the torrent
[10:49] <dooglus> afief: re-read what he wants
[10:50] <Steven_Laptop> gsiliceo, so did you have the card in before install ubuntu or after?
[10:50] <dooglus> afief: particularly the last 8 words
[10:50] <Zoofmu> MystaMax  damn you thats for GNOME
[10:50] <MystaMax> oh my

[10:50] <gsiliceo> i was using the built-in graphics in my motherboard
[10:50] <dooglus> afief: he wants one VNC session shared with the person sitting at the console, and one 'private'

[10:52] <Steven_Laptop> can someone post the command to reconfig the graph cards?
[10:52] <pjman> I'm trying to play with the "factoid thingy" do you have to do something special to get it to work?

[10:53] <ltracy> How the hell do I keep my resolv.conf from getting overwritten with old values?
[10:53] <Answer> ltracy: dhclient will overwrite resolv.conf
[10:53] <pjman> cool, thx
[10:53] <afief> Zoofmu, 1. isn't that what VNC is made for doing? 2. use a password 3. use your local IP when connecting to him
[10:53] <dooglus> pjman: you don't use <...> around the term
[10:53] <ltracy> I use it at home on comcast with comcast DNS stuff, then I go to school reconnect to a different network and it stays comcast
[10:53] <i-am-garffi> please anyone help me with installing ubuntu on a laptop...
[10:53] <Steven_Laptop> gsiliceo, let me see what I can find
[10:53] <gsiliceo> thank you
[10:54] <Zoofmu> afief  WHAT VNC, there are 1000
[10:54] <dooglus> afief: using a password doesn't help - VNC sends the password in clear text doesn't it?
[10:54] <ltracy> so I rerun dhclient and it puts in the new DNS server.. but then a couple minutes later it is back to comcast
[10:54] <strabes> !install > haku
[10:54] <Indi> thanks ubotu n dooglus
[10:54] <Answer> Zoofmu: you have exceeded your caps quota
[10:54] <siloko> ltracy: you can add a supercede command in dhclient.conf to ensure that this doesn't happen
[10:54] <ltracy> siloko:  I'll check that out.  thanks
[10:55] <strabes> haku: sorry about that. i wrote "installing" instead of "install." I've heard of similar problems and it's apparently possible to install from a usb stick or something. I don't really know though. You'll have to keep asking around
[10:55] <siloko> ltracy: supercede domain-name-servers <your dns ip>
[10:55] <MikeCame1> any exim gurus?
[10:55] <Zoofmu> stefg
[10:55] <Zoofmu> stefg is that better then VNC, what is the difference?
[10:56] <pjman> Zoofmu: I don't think there is a way to have VNC configured so you can connect connect to the main console session along with having your own concurrently...
[10:56] <Endlessguitar> can some1 help me to find one thing I need?
[10:56] <i-am-garffi> i bought an hp pavilion tx1000 laptop and i cannot start installing ubuntu... nothing happens....anyone on priv can help me? please
[10:56] <Zoofmu> pjman okay is there a server that can do both?
[10:56] <__mikem> RAH66, I don't know I never tried it
[10:56] <Endlessguitar> I need to download inux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-server
[10:56] <Endlessguitar> cant find it
[10:56] <pjman> I don't think so
[10:56] <salsero> hi my kaffeine records automatic by dvbt how can i deactived it
[10:56] <ltracy> siloko: well, I don't know what the server is.. I WANT it to overwrite resolv.conf with the corrent DNS server.. let me try to explain again
[10:56] <Zoofmu> pjman  I mean is there a server that can handle both, like disconnect from HIS X, then join my own X?
[10:56] <stefg> Zoofmu: it's  quicker than vnc, don't know what your understanding of better is
[10:56] <RAH66> omg
[10:56] <Zoofmu> stefg okay how does it work, I get to see what the person is up to?
[10:57] <RAH66> vmware is also almost 150 mbs
[10:57] <pjman> zoofmu: afaik there isn't
[10:57] <pjman> zoofmu: it would be nice though :-)
[10:57] <stefg> Zoofmu: have you ever considered actually reading what's on that page ? :-)
[10:57] <ltracy> I'm at home, DHCP gives me a good dns server for at home.  Later in the day, I leave for school, get to school, attach to wireless network, dhclient again gets me a good school DNS server.. 10 minutes later, for some reason, resolv.conf is overwritten with my HOME dns server (but I'm still at school!)
[10:57] <Zoofmu> pjman are you sure there isnt a VNC server that would let me have my own X and being able to disconnect and then connect to see what the person is up to
[10:57] <Zoofmu> stefg  YEAH it doesnt say what the difference is
[10:58] <Zoofmu> afief  so wich one should I use?
[10:58] <ltracy> so I'm at school, but resolv.conf is pointing to home stuff.. very strange to me... could this be because there are other dhclients running in the background?
[10:58] <Endlessguitar> know somw1 how I find inux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-server
[10:58] <Hoag> 'Ello. W|-|en I try to use t|-|e onscreen keyboard to avoid t|-|e fact t|-|at my |-| key doesn't work, I get an error: "/dev/js0: No such file or directory" |-|ow do I get t|-|e onscreen keyboard to work?
[10:58] <Hoag> P.S - milk + keyboards = no.
[10:58] <gsiliceo> haha
[10:58] <pjman> zoofmu: I wanted to do the same thing a while ago. I searched and searched but couldn't find anything. Maybe you can run two different VNC servers on different ports to accomplish this. I've never tried and don't the the specifics to set that up.
[10:59] <ltracy> see.. NOW resolv.conf says comcast.net with comcast nameservers.. but I'm not at home and I'm not on a comcast network
[10:59] <dd_> hi
[10:59] <Zoofmu> pjman  yeah wich two should I run?
[10:59] <dd_> do you know what's the package for "gas" ?
[10:59] <dooglus> Zoofmu: x11vnc & vino are for connecting to his X, vncserver & vnc4server are for connecting to your own X
[10:59] <siloko> ltracy: well you could add both your home and school dns servers to dhclient.conf (just copy the ip addresses from resolv.conf when you connect) and both will be added to resolv.conf at connection time no matter where you are
[10:59] <lusepuster> all xine-based apps freeze when started - any known fix?
[10:59] <Zoofmu> dooglus  roger that, I couldnt get vino to work, connection refused it said
[11:00] <radioaktivstorm> i guess theres too much activity, ill try back later. i-am-garffi, priv ill try to see if i can help.
[11:00] <ltracy> siloko: that might work.. any idea how I can tell what process is writing it?
[11:00] <siloko> ltracy: just seperate the adn ip address with a comma - you can add as many as you want following the supersede command i mentioned earlier
[11:00] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I wouldn't bother even trying.  None of the VNC stuff works very well in ubuntu.
[11:00] <Answer> radioaktivstorm: suspend and hibernate do not work for me.
[11:00] <BrendanM> so I have a very weird keyboard issue. It used to be that I could press+hold the arrow keys to scroll across text, now, I have to press the key repeatedly. Does anyone know how to change this behavior?
[11:00] <Zoofmu> dooglus  what should I use then?
[11:00] <Dracula}X{> Anyone here familiar with hosting internet sharing through firewire in ubuntu?
[11:00] <Guest> hey, what's the best way of installing ubuntu without losing my files?
[11:00] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I've found debian works a lot better personally.
[11:01] <Steven_Laptop> gsiliceo, sorry was on the phone and now they called me into a meeting but I hope this will help you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2580781
[11:01] <radioaktivstorm> answer: hmm, yeah i went trough a bunch of fun editing of acpi-support and stuff
[11:01] <gsiliceo> thanks man, will check it
[11:01] <radioaktivstorm> nothing really helped
[11:01] <MystaMax> Guest: burn your files to CD
[11:01] <rosabl> hello. i have pentium with 400 MHertz and a HDD with 2.5 GB, i set hda1 to 2.2 GB and hda2 for swap ( the rest ) ... i want to install ubuntu 6.1 alternate, but it failes during base system setup... bootstrap package missing... attempting 5 more times ( red screen
[11:01] <__mikem> RAH66, you are going to find that the performance you get when you run vmware, is extremely slow, and even on a fast machien things like beryl, and just about any graphically intense application will be unusable
[11:01] <Zoofmu> dooglus  I meant VNC and stuff
[11:01] <Horscht> is there some config i can edit to change the colors used by libnotify?
[11:01] <DVS01> is there a way to make cifs mounts' directory listings be cached? i have a directory with over 1000 entries, and it always takes a few seconds for the listing to come up in file browsers
[11:01] <Guest> mystamax: it's too much, haha. isn't there an easier way?
[11:01] <MystaMax> Guest: where are the files? in your home?
[11:01] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I would be using FreeNX instead of VNC if the temperamental windows client would work with it
[11:01] <stefg> rosabl: how much RAM do youn have?
[11:02] <dooglus> Zoofmu: it's a LOT faster than VNC
[11:02] <Spec> dooglus: afaik the older version of the NoMachine client works with freenx
[11:02] <dooglus> Zoofmu: even over the Internet - using a remote machine 1000 miles away can feel faster than running X locally sometimes :)
[11:02] <DVS01> oh crap.. i just realized, its sshfs, not cifs
[11:02] <Hoag> Or can anyone reccomend an alternate on screen keyboard?
[11:02] <dooglus> Spec: on most of the Windows boxes here, yes, it does.  but on one it doesn't...
[11:03] <rosabl> zirca 180 MB
[11:03] <dooglus> Spec: it just hangs at the first 'authenticating' step, forever
[11:03] <gsiliceo> damn, no, that guy can boot ubuntu, i can't nor i get a command line, i will keep searching
[11:03] <rosabl> stefg  around 180
[11:03] <rosabl> MB
[11:03] <gsiliceo> goodbye everyone
[11:03] <Zoofmu> dooglus does FreeNX work as own X or the persons X ?
[11:03] <DaveTarmac> hi all
[11:03] <dooglus> Zoofmu: 'own X'
[11:04] <Zoofmu> dooglus  Look you know what I want best, I want two servers, one for the persons X and one for my own X
[11:04] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I don't think it can attach to an existing display
[11:04] <rosabl> and its not bootstrap, its DEBOOTSTRAP warning
[11:04] <DaveTarmac> can anyone tell me if Feisty Live CD will read NTFS partitions? I've looked on google and ubuntu.com, but can't find anything specific
[11:04] <ink_> Hi; I just installed ubuntu for the first time.. how do I get it to boot in console-only mode;  /etc/inittab is not there and passing in '2' or '3' to the kernel params (grub boot screen) doesn't seem to work
[11:04] <stefg> rosabl: that's too tight.. take xubuntu, alternate install. ubuntu won't fit on taht machine, neither hd-space wise, nor TAM-wise
[11:04] <Zoofmu> dooglus okay what do you say about x11vnc and FreeNX ?
[11:04] <stefg> *RAM
[11:04] <Steven_Laptop> gsiliceo, ok I got 15min let me reboot and then I can email you mi xorg
[11:04] <neoeire> ne1 know about switching from ubuntu to kubuntu desktop?
[11:04] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I'm not entirely clear.  do you want "your own session" to be running on the remote machine, just for surfing?  I mean, why not just surf on the ubuntu box?
[11:04] <rosabl> file://okidoki thanx stefg ;)
[11:05] <dyrne> ink_: sudo update-rc.d -f gdm remove
[11:05] <MystaMax> neoeire: you can uninstall ubuntu-desktop and install kubuntu-desktop
[11:05] <Zoofmu> dooglus well I want two sessions, one HIS, and one MINE,  but If it isnt possible, then I want to be able too chose
[11:05] <LjL> !kde > neoeire    (neoeire, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:05] <dyrne> ink_: that is rather more permanent that sudo chmod -x /etc/init.d/gdm
[11:05] <Dracula}X{> Anyone know how ot share internet through firewire?
[11:05] <Adntu> ink_: Hi; just start in recovery mode
[11:05] <christof> Please how to add path in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH
[11:05] <ink_> dyrne:  thanks
[11:05] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I say try x11vnc again, google around to see why it's messing up your keyboard, then eventually find that it's a known bug, has been in the ubuntu tracker for 2.5 years, and neither of the ubuntu devs have time to commit the fix that's been lying idle.
[11:06] <karlanke> anyone know where i can get libc6 2.3.6-6 or higher? the highest on synaptic is -0
[11:06] <brentc4m> christof, export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/new/path
[11:06] <cbx33> anyone know of a way to open quark documents with OSS?
[11:06] <dooglus> christof: export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local:$LD_LIBERY_PATH
[11:06] <Zoofmu> dooglus okay but what about x11vnc and FreeNX,  if I want my own X i use FreeNX, but if i want HIS X I use x11vnc :) what do you say about that?
[11:06] <dooglus> Zoofmu: sounds good.
[11:06] <christof> dooglus: brentc4m  thx :)
[11:06] <Zoofmu> dooglus okay is it possible to SSH both?
[11:07] <dooglus> Zoofmu: you can ssh anything :)
[11:07] <dooglus> Zoofmu: freenx uses ssh by default I believe
[11:07] <Zoofmu> dooglus  what happends when I get my own X, am still in the "guys" account?=
[11:07] <dooglus> Zoofmu: they'll each open in a separate window.  you can use both at the same time
[11:08] <riaal> Anyone know if RADEON X1600 XT is included in Restricted Modules? Or what package to get for it?
[11:08] <Zoofmu> dooglus  no I meant if I get my own X, will I be in the guy that is logged ins account?
[11:08] <rosabl> can i make a swap partition on a seperate HDD like ( hda1 = ext3 2,5 GB / hdb1 = swap 500 MB )
[11:08] <stefg> rosabl: sure, smart move actually
[11:09] <dooglus> Zoofmu: if you like.  you can log in using freenx as whichever user you like.
[11:09] <Zoofmu> kk
[11:09] <rosabl> great!! :D
[11:09] <rosabl> ok, cu
[11:09] <Zoofmu> dooglus  you have to help me with that, right now Im gonna get x11vnc and FreeNX and get SSH and stuff :) cya later man
[11:09] <dooglus> Zoofmu: you run the freenx client, it prompts you for a username/password, and creates a new session for that user
[11:09] <Zoofmu> hehe :) dooglus  what if I dont want a new session
[11:09] <Zoofmu> dooglus what if I want the guys session but my own X =
[11:10] <dooglus> Zoofmu: I'm not understanding your terminology
[11:10] <stefg> rosabl: but leave Gnome and KDE alone, aint no fun on a box like that. xfce would be perfect, so xubuntu
[11:10] <steven_laptop> ok im back if I understand you correctly you cant even get to a command line?

[11:21] <ksnipz> was wondering, I needed to do some video editing and have to go back windows to do it (cinelerra, kdenlive etc won't cut it this time), so I was wondering if running a virtual machine via kqemu would be a viable option, like would I be able to access my hardware, (dvd burner, usb, video card, etc) or would I be better of just making a dual boot
[11:21] <Xerus2> thanks see you later
[11:21] <dooglus> pjman: that's different errors than I was getting.  I think mine were "smb" errors, but I'm not sur.
[11:22] <Answer> lusepuster: Lightweight Extensible Authentication Protocol
[11:22] <Be-snd> cisco proprieraty
[11:22] <Answer> ksnipz: if you need that much hardware access, and probably high performance graphics, dual boot might be better
[11:23] <Horscht> libnotify help anyone?
[11:23] <Horscht> is there some config i can edit to change the colors used in libnotify?
[11:23] <pjman> dooglus: ok, thanks for looking
[11:23] <dooglus> Horscht: your libraries are in colour?
[11:24] <Horscht> pardon?
[11:24] <Answer> Is there a way to search for my old posts in pastebin?
[11:24] <pjman> Does anyone else have any ideas why I'd get I/O errors? The hard drive (iPod) works fine in windows.
[11:24] <Horscht> I am trying/wanting to change the colors i get in libnotify popups
[11:24] <ksnipz> Answer, would you know what the main limitations of running a virtual machine would be?
[11:25] <iturk> hey guys i am having problem with temperature in my system and i only have one fan and by "cat /proc/acpi/fan/FAN0/state" it's off !! How can i turn it on ??
[11:25] <Answer> ksnipz: limited access to hardware layer, suboptimal graphics card performance
[11:25] <dooglus> Horscht: that's probably more to do with notification-daemon than libnotify isn't it?
[11:25] <dooglus> !info notification-daemon
[11:25] <ubotu> notification-daemon: a daemon that displays passive pop-up notifications. In component main, is optional. Version 0.3.6-0ubuntu3 (feisty), package size 43 kB, installed size 188 kB

[11:26] <xst> As far as I can see there doesn't seem to be much bug fixing activity by the Ubuntu Audio Team. Most bug have few or no comments from developers. Is all audio bug fixing in Feisty stalled?
[11:27] <abo> is feisty CD/DVD available for ordering/Downloading?
[11:27] <aoirthoir> yes
[11:27] <needhelp> How do I install realaudio/movie support for FireFox ?
[11:27] <aoirthoir> one moment I will get you the link
[11:27] <Anon092321> I feel like i made a huge mistake switching to linux
[11:28] <Horscht> does libnotify/notification-daemon not control the tooltips? (when i hover over the close/restore/minimize buttons on a windows for example) dooglus?
[11:28] <Anon092321> everything is 50 times harder and more cumbersome
[11:28] <Anon092321> it might not be linux's fault,
[11:28] <aoirthoir> abo, http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[11:28] <Anon092321> but a lot of the stuff on the net i used to enjoy was Microsoft stuff
[11:28] <mcscruff> Anon092321, so was windows the 1st time you used it
[11:28] <Anon092321> i was used to clicking a link to see a WMA stream
[11:28] <oriez> "dpkg: requested operation requires superuser privilege" how can i identify for him

[11:31] <winston> hi
[11:32] <nixternal> cox37777: you need to remove CDROM from your sources file. I know the CLI way, however for Synaptic I am not to familiar with seeing as I use Kubuntu, but there should be something in Synaptic so you can remove the CDROM, or disable it at least
[11:32] <d2812> cox37777: type "sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list", and put a # at the begining of the line that starts deb cdrom
[11:32] <EADG> Wondering what these files are for .serverauth.xxxx. I have a bunch of 'em in my home dir, anybody know?
[11:32] <karlanke> synaptic wont let me download faac or mplayer - it says it needs libc6 2.3.6-6, and i have -0, and thats the highest i can find
[11:32] <oriez> what the heck!?
[11:32] <d2812> Cox37777: or System -> Administation - Software Source, deselect the CD-ROM at the bottom of the screen.
[11:33] <BloodyTux> how do i get /tmp permissions???
[11:33] <cox37777> d2812: awsome mate, let me check it out.. it's server only so no front end
[11:33] <cox37777> d2812: 2 secs
[11:33] <nixternal> thanks d2812
[11:33] <d2812> np, just had to check my sources which line it was :)
[11:33] <Zoofmu> Is there a MSN client where you can voice chat?
[11:34] <BloodyTux> ???
[11:34] <BloodyTux> can someone help me
[11:34] <FordCortina> hi i've got a question about netiquette... on mailing lists is it normally to reply "ah thankyou that fixed it" or would most ppl just consider that spam?
[11:34] <Gorlist> Everning,
[11:34] <FordCortina> normal*
[11:34] <cox37777> d2812: seems to be working : )
[11:34] <dmhouse> FordCortina: I'd send that reply.
[11:34] <Gorlist> slight problem - I just accidental deleted a folder from my ntfs drive!! its not appeared in my trash can :)
[11:35] <dmhouse> FordCortina: it's useful for people that find the thread on Google and wond whether the suggested fix did in fact work.
[11:35] <meezyfuh> hi. is there a way to handle kgb files in ubuntu?
[11:35] <Gorlist> anyideas where I might find it to restore
[11:35] <psusi> Gorlist: hope you have a backup
[11:35] <Gorlist> no
[11:35] <Gorlist> it was a game directory
[11:35] <stefg> !coc | FordCortina: no that's not spam, but info, further information in
[11:35] <ubotu> FordCortina: no that's not spam, but info, further information in: The Ubuntu Code of Conduct to which we ask all Ubuntu users to adhere can be found at http://www.ubuntu.com/community/conduct/
[11:35] <dooglus> FordCortina: if you've asked a question and somebody has given you an answer that works, it's useful to reply saying 'that worked', so others can see that the advice was good
[11:35] <Gorlist> I pressed delete for some bizarre reason.
[11:36] <Gorlist> Im guessing it might be a terminal condition?
[11:36] <fluvvell> this seems like a dumb question but how do you turn the cube with the mouse in compiz ?
[11:36] <d2812> cox3777: you may need to run "sudo apt-get update", i cant remember off the top of my head.
[11:36] <FordCortina> dmhouse: stefg: dooglus: thanks! I'll send that reply.
[11:36] <dmhouse> fluvvell: it's Ctrl+Alt+drag with the mouse in Beryl, might be similar in Compiz.
[11:36] <siloko> fluvvell: ctl-alt-left ctrl-alt-right
[11:36] <meezyfuh> anyone ever heard of the kgb file extension? i know there is a program to uncompress in windows, but is there one for linux? i can't seem to find one.
[11:36] <dooglus> fluvvell: hold control+alt, click and hold left mouse button, release keys, hold mouse button, move mouse
[11:37] <fluvvell> cheers dooglus, siloko, dmhouse. I'll try...
[11:37] <siloko> a rash of answers - of only they were all that easy :)
[11:37] <dooglus> weird.  there's a ubuntu logo on the top of my compiz cube again.  it wasn't there this afternoon, but it was yesterday.
[11:37] <Dracula}X{> Anyone familiar with ip over firewire?
[11:37] <Gorlist> psusi: I assume I cannot recover it?
[11:38] <fluvvell> uh,  i've enabled desktop effects in the menu, and I've got the bendy and floppy windows and stuff, but ctl-alt mouse drag doesn't work
[11:39] <meezyfuh> has anyone ever heard of kgb files?
[11:39] <allblacks> question: how do i uninstall ClamAV?
[11:39] <jTr0n> did you enable the cube?
[11:39] <jTr0n> fluvvell:
[11:39] <fluvvell> is there somewhere I can check the key settings?
[11:39] <fluvvell> jTr0n: ?
[11:40] <jTr0n> did you enable the cube?
[11:40] <fluvvell> jTr0n: yep
[11:41] <siloko> fluvvell: compiz - desktop cube, surely not . . .
[11:41] <meezyfuh> sorry for repeating myself, but surely someone has heard of kgb!

[11:46] <Vittel> I have a very big Problem ... *urgh ... i've edited the groups with groupadd and added myself to a new group ... now ... sudo didn't work anymore ... can anyone help me? Or is only thing reinstall ? :(
[11:46] <__mog> i think something is wrong with my ati-driver: everything works, but very slowly. shell-scrolling with lots of text in a window is far away from smooth.. is that normal?
[11:46] <Sbastrd> I'm ready to make a full switch to Linux, but I need one problem fixed! :(
[11:46] <aro> __mog, which ATI card do you have
[11:46] <kazol> How do I force terminate Firefox? "kill-9 firefox-bin"?
[11:47] <dyrne> Henica: its always good to know f7 gets you back to gui too :)
[11:47] <pyrohotdog> kazol: yes
[11:47] <kazol> thx
[11:47] <aro> kazol, open terminal and type ps -A, find the PID matching it
[11:47] <Henica> Hmm.. it's telling me that an error has occurred. =/
[11:47] <jake> how do i force my cpu fan to always be on?
[11:47] <stefg> __mog: what does glxinfo | grep direct tell you?
[11:47] <pyrohotdog> kazol: sorry, killall -9 firefox-bin
[11:47] <__mog> aro, stefg: sec
[11:47] <anass> bored =/
[11:47] <siloko> ahh yes got the compiz cube working - sorry about the duff comments!!
[11:48] <Henica> It said that it refused my connection?
[11:48] <Zoofmu> Could someone help me please, I run Xubuntu, but I got no close/minimize/restor bar.. I removed beryl and restarted X now everything is gone.
[11:48] <aro> Zoofmu, #xubuntu
[11:48] <jake> laptop keeps overheating and the cpu fan isnt running anyideas?
[11:48] <kazol> How come Firefox keeps running? Is there a way to prevent this so I won't have to force terminate it?
[11:48] <siloko> Zoofmu: i get that when i have compiz as my window manager
[11:48] <Henica> Anyone?
[11:49] <allblacks> i got a huge problem i don't know how to fix this E: clvm: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[11:49] <allblacks> E: redhat-cluster-suite: dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
[11:49] <aro> kazol, how long after you close the visible firefox window is the process running?
[11:49] <aro> kazol, sometimes it just takes a few minutes for the process to be auto killed
[11:49] <kazol> jake: change the fan.
[11:49] <Osit[o_o] > ubuntu en espaol please
[11:49] <nentis> Howdy Ubuntu folk.  Under dapper's gnome, I could grab the titlebar, hit my hotkey for a desktop (F2 for example) and the window would move with me to desktop 2.
[11:49] <prego_> someon an idea about my soundcard problem?
[11:49] <nentis> Broke under feisty.
[11:49] <armyriad> Is this true: http://www.bbspot.com/News/2007/05/future-version-of-ubuntu.html
[11:49] <nentis> What option is this?
[11:49] <aro> jake, fans not spinning sounds like a hardware issue and not linux specific, unless the fan spins in Windows or something
[11:49] <Vittel> Nobody who can help ?
[11:49] <nentis> I'm not sure what this is called.
[11:49] <dyrne> !es | Osit[o_o]

[11:49] <jake> it works when i first start up the bios turns it on and after ubuntu boots it never turns back on
[11:49] <aro> __mog, which drivers are you using?
[11:50] <Henica> *sighs* I don't get it?
[11:50] <aro> Henica, what are you trying to do?
[11:50] <Sbastrd> Ok, I used speaker-test -c6 -D surround51 to test my speakers and they worked! But, how do I get my music and etc to work through all the speakers?
[11:50] <Henica> Trying to connect tot hte Terminal.. I think. So I can fix my screen resoluion.
[11:50] <Henica> to the* Sorry.
[11:50] <aro> Henica, are you using feisty ubuntu?
[11:50] <barbarella_me> Vittel:what was the question, i just came in.
[11:50] <aro> Henica, go to applications->accessories->terminal
[11:50] <stefg> __mog: to verIfy you got hardware acceleration type  'glxinfo | grep direct' in a terminal
[11:50] <Henica> I did that.
[11:50] <Henica> And I put in the info.
[11:50] <aro> Henica, then what
[11:51] <kazol> I can
[11:51] <aro> Henica, what do you mean by info
[11:51] <Henica> And it told me it refused my connection.
[11:51] <dmhouse> Henica: what preciself did you type?
[11:51] <jolsa> jj
[11:51] <jTr0n> dual monitor support in ubuntu needs to be better lol.  that was the hardest thing i had to setup so far.  luckily for me someone on google had an identical configuration to mine
[11:51] <aro> Henica, are you trying to telnet or something?
[11:51] <__mog> aro i think i got no 3d.. but i thought that wouldnt be useful if i dont want to play or have funky desktop-effects
[11:51] <__mog> stefg: no 3d
[11:51] <Vittel> I have a very big Problem ... *urgh ... i've edited the groups with groupadd and added myself to a new group ... now ... sudo didn't work anymore ... can anyone help me? Or is only thing reinstall ? :( @ barbarella_me
[11:51] <T-Pup> i'm replacing my computer at home, my daughters computer with ubuntu this weekend
[11:51] <aro> __mog, are you just using the drivers that linux auto decided to use at install?
[11:51] <kazol> sry. I meant to say: I cannot find any pages on howto setup software RAID-1 using mdam for Feisty.
[11:51] <T-Pup> my sons i'm gonna leave wind
[11:51] <__mog> aro: yap
[11:51] <aro> !raid | kazol
[11:51] <Henica> I'm just trying to follow someone else's instructions to fix my screen res. :P
[11:51] <ubotu> kazol: 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
[11:52] <Henica> This is my first time ever installing and running linux.. so I have no idea what I'm doing.
[11:52] <aro> Henica, you mean you want to change X Server resolution settings?
[11:52] <Henica> I want to be able to use the resolution 1280*800
[11:52] <T-Pup> Henica - mine too, google is your friend - its fixed every problem for me
[11:52] <dmhouse> Henica: you need to tell us precisely what you typed in the terminal.
[11:52] <Henica> I tried google-ing.. but I got lost. :p
[11:52] <stefg> !fixres | Henica , here's a howto:
[11:52] <ubotu> Henica , here's a howto:: 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
[11:52] <Henica> I didn't get to connect to the terminal yet?
[11:53] <aro> Henica, did you check System->Preferences->Screen resolution ?
[11:53] <Henica> Yes.
[11:53] <Henica> It's not listed as an option.
[11:53] <aro> Henica, which monitor/vid card do you have?
[11:53] <aro> Henica, I had this problem before which is why I ask
[11:53] <Henica> Well I'm on a laptop.
[11:53] <Henica> *goes to look up what graphics card her boyfrine dput in here*
[11:53] <barbarella_me> Vittel:Than you have to add your user to the /etc/sudoers file
[11:54] <__mog> aro, stefg: do you think simple kde without any 3d-stuff will work better when using the ati drivers? i thougt they would only be of use for 3d-stuff
[11:54] <dmhouse> Henica: 'connecting to the terminal' doesn't make sense. Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal gives you a terminal window, where you can execute a wide variety of programs that aren't available using the normal window system. You shouldn't have to connect to anything,
[11:54] <linxeh> does security.ubuntu.com have the same stuff on it as archive.ubuntu.com ?
[11:54] <aro> __mog, ATI support in linux is hit or miss, you can try fglrx drivers and mess around with those if you want
[11:54] <kofler> what is the difference between multiverse gstreamer * plugins and universe gstreamer * plugins?
[11:54] <aro> __mog, but I warn you that ATI is a pain so have patience when you do that
[11:54] <Vittel> Okay thanks barbarella_me i'll try it ;)
[11:54] <jTr0n> so cool to see more and mroe regular people jumping on the ubuntu train.  i picked it up at home so i could help all these folk i know that installed it on their systems.
[11:54] <siloko> Does anyone know how to prevent the partition listing in the left panel of Nautilus
[11:55] <Henica> dmhouse ; I don't have utilities under applications.
[11:55] <prego_> got a quick question, if anybody is able to help. how do i load the sound modules in order? got two soundcards and feisty messes with the order - wan't a particular card loaded first?
[11:55] <kofler> anyone know?
[11:55] <ubuntu> Vittel - or run 'sudo deluser you group' to remove yourself from the group that caused the problem
[11:55] <aro> Henica, you can check out this too http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[11:55] <aro> Henica, I'm not sure if that will help but it's worth a try
[11:55] <fouressence> I have a folder with numerous subfolders, and I'd like to copy all the files from those subfolders to a single directory.  (It's hundreds of subfolders, so doing it by hand... ugh)  Is there a way to do this is cp or mv?
[11:56] <stefg> __mog: sorry,don't know much about ATI . all i know is that the ati-drivers are a major pita in linux
[11:56] <aro> fouressence, you want to remove the file heirarchy from those folders and just make one directory with every file in it?
[11:56] <__mog> aro: i got the driver to work and i know how.. kind of.. but it seemed that the fan is always on if i use it..
[11:56] <fouressence> aro: Yup
[11:56] <aro> __mog, it might always be on if it's using 3D acceleration
[11:56] <stefg> !ATI | __mog
[11:56] <ubotu> __mog: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:56] <soneil> fouressence: you're looking for "find".  If you're positive there's no name collisions, something like: find /from/there/ -type f -exec cp "{}" /to/there/ ";"
[11:56] <Henica> Okay. So I figured out what I was doing wrong terminal wise.
[11:57] <pyrohotdog> If I save a file in openoffice, will I be able to open in it MS office?
[11:57] <kofler> what is the difference between gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly and gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse ?
[11:57] <fouressence> soneil: Thanks!
[11:57] <__mog> nvidia-drivers work fine?
[11:57] <Henica> Got there, typed in the command that I was told to, and it told me that the command did not exist.
[11:57] <moonwatcher> hello
[11:57] <kofler> besides the obvious that one is in multiverse and the other is in universe
[11:57] <aro> Henica, which command did you type
[11:57] <Henica> sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart
[11:57] <Henica> As specified above.
[11:57] <aro> pyrohotdog, you can save in Office 97/XP format
[11:57] <Zoofmu> dooglus how did I get autotype back?
[11:58] <moonwatcher> when i click one of the ftp "servers" in the "Places" menu firefox opens up instead of nautilus
[11:58] <aro> Henica, it should be "/etc/init.d/gdm restart" (without quotes, but be warned this will restart your X server)
[11:58] <moonwatcher> what made this happen and how do i change it back?
[11:58] <Hamm_sand> s
[11:58] <Henica> That's what I was told to do.. is this a bad thing?
[11:58] <pyrohotdog> aro: thank you.
[11:58] <aro> Henica, no, it's just if you haven't made any changes, it won't do much except show the exact same thing again
[11:58] <aro> Henica, it's good to restart X after you make changes
[11:59] <Henica> Hmm. I see.
[11:59] <nickrud> kofler, in general the stuff in multiverse might have license or patent issues, the ones in universe shouldn't
[11:59] <Hamm_sand> how could i find out if i have GTK 1.x or 2.x
[11:59] <aro> Henica, you can try to read through https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto to get an idea of how to edit your xorg.conf file
[11:59] <aro> Henica, it may require some studying on your part though if you're new with it
[12:00] <CppIsWeird> i am concidering putting ubuntu on a laptop, how efficent are ubuntu's controls for power efficency as opposed to the drivers that come installed on windows with the laptop?
[12:00] <Henica> The command you gave me did not work either.
[12:00] <Henica> "Command Not Found"
[12:00] <Nrbelex> Hi, is there any reason why my network card could see available wireless networks but not connect? It was working recently but shows no incoming data from a new wireless network.
[12:00] <siloko> Henica: to restart X type ctrl-alt-backspace
