[12:03] <hentai_jeff> just do a quick search for linux games and you'll find some good ones
[12:03] <rdvon> cool. thanks
[12:03] <moDumass> it may be that a partition is full though, but it says file system 48% so i should be good
[12:04] <rdvon> although i think i still might have to stick with windows for good games D:
[12:04] <rdvon> like oblivion.
[12:04] <magnetron> shade8: this is the support channel. join #ubuntu-offtopic for other topics
[12:04] <hentai_jeff> you can get that running with wine
[12:04] <rdvon> hahaha.
[12:04] <shade8>  when i chat does it show up in rissian
[12:04] <^Albe^> i'm looking fr some info for add a folder in an iso image (or in the iso image or in the destination cd) is it possible? kiso hangs in gnome during the "Open" , and in kde does not save the modified iso (without su) or hangs (in su mode) any help/idea? thx regards
[12:04] <shade8>  i dont understand
[12:04] <usser_> rdvon: oh i dont remember theres a trick for running xgl
[12:05] <rdvon> gah!
[12:05] <rdvon> anyone tried ubuntu studio?
[12:05] <moDumass> ok, i see shade8 this isnt a 'let chat' kinda channel, it seems more like a 'i mashed help me fix' channel
[12:06] <jendead> hello, does anyone know how to tell wine to run in 32-bit color by default?
[12:06] <usser_> rdvon: heres a guide for beryl with ati http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=291464
[12:06] <shade8>  wher edo i go for online chat
[12:06] <Asauce> How do I change the "PKG_CONFIG_PATH" correctly while compiling source code so I don't get those stupid errors about not having gtk, etc.?
[12:06] <bruenig> rdvon, ubuntu with different packages and a different theme, it is like Ubuntu CE, except that it does have some unique packages whereas Ubuntu CE doesn't and could be replicated by apt-getting a few apps
[12:06] <moDumass> i mashed, i get 'GDM could not write to authoriation file' i googled, google said delete Xauthority and ICEauthority, done... but no love still cant log in, anyone encountered this before? please show me the way
[12:06] <rdvon> cool. ill try and thanks usser.
[12:06] <magnetron> jendead, wine cannot change the bit depth.
[12:06] <rdvon> ill just get the repos for ubuntu studio.
[12:07] <void^> Asauce: install the appropriate -dev packages?
[12:07] <jendead> oh.. how do people get games to work if you can't get 32 bit color?
[12:07] <Asauce> So I have to go into synaptic and download gtk-dev or something to that extent?
[12:07] <shade8>  i want to chat with other countries
[12:07] <kernel288> Hey guys. got a question. I downloaded nano-2.0.6.tar.gz but the installation wont work with ubuntu ! If i write apt-get install nano   it says its up to date ! What is worng.?!
[12:07] <magnetron> jendead: you will have to set X11 to the right bit depth before you start wine
[12:08] <jendead> magnetron, my desktop is running in 32 bit
[12:08] <DShepherd> kernel288: nano is already there..
[12:08] <DShepherd> kernel288: its already installed i imean
[12:08] <kernel288> what u mean? I didnt installed it at all.
[12:08] <DShepherd> s/imean/mean
[12:08] <bruenig> kernel288, it is already installed
[12:09] <kernel288> Ok, if its installed, where do i find it ?
[12:09] <bruenig> kernel288, do "which nano"
[12:09] <magnetron> jendead: if you don't, wine will convert the colors for you - but it will be dread slow. you might have some luck with the "emulate virtual desktop" option in winecfg
[12:09] <kernel288> nano-2.0.6.tar.gz
[12:09] <bruenig> kernel288, it should be in /usr/bin/nano
[12:09] <jpjacobs> kernel288, nano is normally installed per default
[12:09] <magnetron> jendead: wait are you trying to run bf2?
[12:09] <kernel288> ok, wait
[12:09] <rdvon> haha.
[12:10] <jendead> magnetron, no.. trying to run fate, old game
[12:10] <kernel288> wtf
[12:10] <kernel288> it works o.O
[12:10] <magnetron> jendead: is it in the AppDB (the winehq page)
[12:10] <kernel288> but i didnt install it... i am confused...
[12:10] <bruenig> kernel288, does just running "nano" not work?
[12:10] <cjae> when I compile an app I have to manually update it myself when a new release comes along right
[12:10] <jrib> cjae: yes
[12:10] <bruenig> kernel288, it is installed by default. Like for instance, did you install gnome?
[12:10] <usser_> cjae: yes
[12:10] <jendead> magnetron,  i wasn't aware of an appdb, i'm new to it :)
[12:10] <jpjacobs> kernel288, it is installed in the basic install...it's the default editor
[12:11] <cjae> except for in gentoo right
[12:11] <magnetron> jendead: http://appdb.winehq.org/
[12:11] <kernel288> well .. i dont think so. I had to download it . I am using wubi. And windows installer for Ubuntu
[12:11] <kernel288> so i got to download it myself
[12:11] <bruenig> cjae, gentoo you aren't really compiling it yourself, you are compiling it through the package management system
[12:11] <jendead> magnetron, doesn't show up in a search :(
[12:11] <wimdows> how can I prevent fsck running on a device when I boot?
[12:11] <magnetron> jendead: is it a dos game?
[12:11] <cjae> bruenig, I c
[12:12] <jpjacobs> kernel288, hmm if nano does not get cleanly installed by wubi, i wouldn't trust it anyway
[12:12] <hentai_jeff> wimdows, it only runs every 30 boots
[12:12] <jendead> magnetron,: no, it's a windows game. when i run it, it says "this game must be run in 16 or 32 bit color mode"
[12:12] <py_geek> ALL:: Hey, i'm having a problem with wine... I downloaded the warcraft 3 demo, and all my graphics are messed up in the game (sound isn't that great either...). all the images and stuff in the game are just basically a bunch of lines that have the color of that image. I can barely tell what's what. The screen size also goes down. heres the link to the screenshot- http://www.opmstech.org/t_tmp/screenshot.png
[12:12] <kernel288> well ye, but I need it. Gedit or nano. Its mostly important for me to change the tastatourlayout.
[12:12] <wimdows> hentai_jeff - but it fails on my raid5 array, and yet it mounts it fine and is OK
[12:12] <usser_> py_geek: did u try running it with opengl flag?
[12:13] <Bobbon> Someone can help me whit my mounting and partition of tre disk in. Cant get it to work.
[12:13] <magnetron> jendead: try to enable "emulate virtual desktop" in winecfg
[12:13] <py_geek> usser_: ?
[12:13] <moDumass> hmmm, seems my install directory has run out of space, how would i go about clearing some?
[12:13] <cjae> do I use e2fsck or just fsck to manually check filesystem (ext3)
[12:13] <jrib> wimdows: you can use tune2fs to change the frequency (-1 or 0 make it not check) or edit your fstab
[12:13] <jendead> magnetron: same error message
[12:13] <usser_> py_geek: try running warcraft like this wine war3.exe -opengl
[12:13] <Milage> py_geek: that's all right, the graphics just reflect the overall game quality now :)
[12:13] <blackgraz> is there some type of exchange server port for ubuntu
[12:14] <yell0w> gahhh how come all this time i'm here and nobody tell me about gconf-editor ;(
[12:14] <moDumass> ok, i removed trash, hoping to clear some space, but still "GDM could not write to your authorization file"
[12:14] <wimdows> jrib - what do I put in fstab to make it not check?
[12:14] <jrib> yell0w: you hear about gconf-editor?
[12:14] <jendead> magnetron: it looks really ugly, like it's in 256 color mode :(
[12:14] <magnetron> jendead: try to post the results in the appdb, and file a bug. that will speed up the process of making the game supported by wine
[12:14] <hentai_jeff> rvdon:http://gaming.gwos.org/news.php here's a good site for you and games for ubuntu
[12:14] <py_geek> Milage: hey, dont go cracking on my useless game that i waste hours playing!;)
[12:14] <yell0w> jrib, just did ;( and feel so pissed off for all the time i've spent mucking around with each files ever since i used ubuntu
[12:15] <jrib> wimdows: change the 6th field to 0 (see man fstab)
[12:15] <wimdows> cheers jrib
[12:15] <Milage> py_geek: what if I let you crack on my useless game that I waste hours on? :p
[12:15] <cjae> where do I add the amount of ram the card has in xorg ??
[12:16] <jrib> yell0w: oh, so you weren't even using gconftool-2 huh, yeah that seems cumbersome
[12:16] <subdub> hi

[12:21] <schighschagh> Adobe says they don't support 64-bit versions of Flash or Shockwave. Is there a workaround for 64-bit Feisty?
[12:21] <usser_> schighschagh: yes
[12:21] <kaolti> drone4four: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=268036 i followed this guide
[12:21] <moDumass> hey all, a quick prob, "GDM could not write to your authorization file" ive deleted ICEauthorization and Xauthorization, but i think that my partitiion may be full, how do i make this go?
[12:21] <usser_> schighschagh: use nspluginwrapper
[12:21] <TheAberrant> is there a way to run a MAC OS X app in ubuntu?  (kind of like a wine for MAC)
[12:21] <Milage> you can apparently get Flash working, but you would lose audio occationally
[12:22] <NDPTAL85> TheAberrant: No.
[12:22] <gikid> hmm
[12:22] <SlimeyPete> schighschagh: yeah, there's a way to use 32-bit firefox and install the 32-bit plugin. I can't remember how you do it, but if you google you should find some info.
[12:22] <PriceChild> abaddon, you can chroot a 32bit firefox
[12:22] <schighschagh> I'll try it.
[12:22] <gikid> i tried to ask in kubuntu but I got no awnser
[12:22] <schighschagh> Thanks.

[12:22] <gikid> (18:20:43) (gikid) does anyone know whats wrong?
[12:22] <PriceChild> TheAberrant, above message sorry
[12:22] <PriceChild> TheAberrant, maybe also "gnash"

[12:37] <killown> I have webcam Bus 005 Device 002: ID 0c45:6270 Microdia  how I do to find module for it?
[12:37] <vox754> !please | killown
[12:37] <ubotu> killown: Avoid your questions being followed by a trail of "Please, help me", "Can nobody help me?", "I really need this!", and so on. This just contributes to making the channel unreadable. If you are not answered, ask again later; but see also !repeat and !patience
[12:37] <smo> sudo mount -t vfat /dev/hda3 /media/fat -o umask=000 for exemple

[12:38] <KiloHertz> Hey has anyone happen to get a NVIDIA TNT driver installed?
[12:38] <ludd1t3> i have a pentium d 915 2.8ghz processor, should i install the regular i386 or amd64 version?
[12:38] <void^> anathematic: the server install uses the same repositories as any other ubuntu version. therefore, you can get exactly the same software on it.
[12:38] <ludd1t3> ive heard both
[12:38] <ludd1t3> on forums
[12:38] <ludd1t3> which one will run more stale
[12:38] <ludd1t3> stable
[12:38] <kernel288> didnt work for me crtl + alt + maus 1. Just klicking of what
[12:38] <gaten> KiloHertz: i think thats a legacy card, correct? you would use legacy drivers
[12:38] <CoUdErMaNn> I
[12:38] <eAi> smo:
[12:38] <killown> This is xawtv-3.95, running on Linux/i686 (2.6.17-10-generic)

[12:38] <smo> good
[12:38] <blackgraz> what packages do i need to compile a software program like ./configure make make install?
[12:38] <CoUdErMaNn> anybody  use  studio?
[12:39] <gaten> kernel288: try holding crtl+alt and hitting left or right arror keys
[12:39] <KiloHertz> gaten: I am not sure. that is why i was asking
[12:39] <ludd1t3> any ideas whould hep
[12:39] <eAi> smo: If I comment that line it can't mount it, as it can't find it
[12:39] <eAi> (in fstab)
[12:39] <usser_> ludd1t3: if u just start with linux i'd suggest i386
[12:39] <gaten> KiloHertz: check the forums, they will tell you what driver to use
[12:39] <gaten> KiloHertz: or the wiki
[12:39] <smo> copy the whole line i gave before
[12:39] <smo> sudo mount -t vfat /dev/hda3 /media/fat -o umask=000 for exemple
[12:39] <smo> just to try
[12:39] <pyrops> how come the "desktop Effects" cannot be enabled
[12:39] <smo> replace by your drive sure and your mont point
[12:39] <smo> mount
[12:39] <gaten> pyrops: do you have nvidia/ati drivers installed?
[12:39] <smo> to try
[12:39] <N9URK> hi, I just installed 6.10 (had problems getting 7.04 installed) and the HD won't boot. I can only get the Live CD to boot. I did "find /boot/grub/stage1" "root (hd0,0)" and "setup (hd0)" from the live disk and it won't  boot.  Any ideas?  THanks for all help in advance!
[12:39] <anathematic> void^:  so is the server version just a console or can i load the GUI for it?
[12:39] <pyrops> ATI
[12:40] <KiloHertz> gaten: one problem though. If I install that driver it will most likely overite my other nvidia driver. Is there  a way to have two nvidia drivers installed at the same time like where one is nvidia1 and the other nvidia2, cause I need both drivers.
[12:40] <kernel288> ok with crtl + alt and left or right arrow it shows me all my tabs i openend, you know. I can see al my openend windows but it wont rotate the cube
[12:40] <idefix_> why does this happen so often? you run something it says "permission denied" you then add in front "sudo" and type the password then it says: "command not found" ?
[12:40] <void^> anathematic: you can install a gui on it.
[12:40] <smo> not forced to have it in fstab...
[12:40] <anathematic> void^:  how do i do that?
[12:40] <gaten> KiloHertz: not that im aware of. you'll have conflics
[12:40] <void^> anathematic: it would depend on what you want.
[12:40] <anathematic> void^:  what i want?
[12:40] <Corbin|Tuxing> how do i get myself permissions to write
[12:41] <pyrops> gaten i have ATI
[12:41] <idefix_> you are highly gifted, aren't you?
[12:41] <gaten> pyrops: ok, and its installed correctly im assuming. is the option grayed on under desktop effects or whar
[12:41] <idefix_> strange
[12:41] <pyrops> gaten , yes and yes
[12:41] <eAi> sm: Ok, I fixed it by recreating /media/c but now only root can mount /media/c - the file manager can't
[12:42] <gaten> Corbin|Tuxing: you need to read the ubuntu handbook
[12:42] <void^> anathematic: gui doesn't mean a lot. do you just want an X server or a full desktop? (why did you use the server install anyways?)
[12:42] <Corbin|Tuxing> i just need a quick answer
[12:42] <Corbin|Tuxing> and my connection is slow
[12:42] <gaten> Corbin|Tuxing: chmod 777
[12:42] <eAi> Corbin: sudo chmod 777 filename
[12:42] <loki_> what file has my screen resolution in it?
[12:42] <N9URK> hi, I just installed 6.10 (had problems getting 7.04 installed) and the HD won't boot. I can only get the Live CD to boot. I did "find /boot/grub/stage1" "root (hd0,0)" and "setup (hd0)" from the live disk and it won't  boot.  Any ideas?  THanks for all help in advance!

[12:43] <loki_> yea that's the one
[12:43] <loki_> thx
[12:43] <loki_> where's xorg.conf located again?
[12:43] <anathematic> void^:  because i'm using it as a webserver, i might just learn the console stuff lol
[12:43] <Akuma_> my eclipse install was weird so i purged it and deleted other eclipse dirs i found, now when i apt-get it and start it i get the error: "Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from /usr/lib/eclipse/startup.jar". any idea how i can recover?
[12:43] <eAi> loki_: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:43] <gaten> pyrops: i dont know then, perhaps its an issue w/ ati
[12:43] <loki_> thx
[12:43] <pyrops> gaten: capito..
[12:43] <void^> anathematic: no need for a gui then.
[12:44] <ludd1t3> does anyone know if pentium d runs better on i386 or amd64?
[12:44] <anathematic> =D i'll just do that void^

[12:44] <Overdose_> Anyone to help me with some SCSI RAID (5) formatting probs
[12:45] <ludd1t3> i read in the forums that it supports pentium d though...

[12:57] <seven_six_two> ifconfig reports an addy in the dynamic range and I set a static ip in network-admin

[12:58] <N9URK> SlicerDicer- it slides, it dices, it makes juliene fries, but it won't do raid

[01:08] <Pelo> arbir,  did you try to upgrade /update anything in it ?
[01:09] <erfdain> uhm... what about packages that depend on package x?
[01:09] <arbir> no Pelo.
[01:09] <ryanpg> nevermind all... I had to run nautilus-script-manager (which shouldn't be the case IMHO) but now it works
[01:09] <ryanpg> thanks

[01:10] <Pelo> arbir,  I realy donT' know
[01:10] <erfdain> how do i list packages which DEPEND on another one? as opposed to which packages are dependencies?
[01:10] <dastardly> atm im downloading one that has 71 seeders and over 1000 leechers, so i should get better speed then 20KB/s max
[01:10] <carcosa> how do I cure the "file size limit exceeded" error
[01:10] <arbir> ok Pelo... another thing is, the Keyring manager asks for my password each time i boot up
[01:11] <arbir> this is because, my wireless password is stored in there @ pelo
[01:11] <jmichaelx> Pelo: i am in kubuntu, so not using nautilus.... how would i mount it from the command line?
[01:11] <Pelo> arbir,  you'Re out of luck I haven't worked with that either
[01:11] <arbir> is there no way i can disable this @ pelo ?
[01:11] <Checkka> Is there a way to see what drivers the OS is using in Ubuntu Feisty?
[01:11] <arbir> ok Pelo . thanks though.

[01:12] <Pelo> moDumass,  thats was my only idea
[01:12] <brazilian_guy> hi, i have just installe ubuntu and i dont know how is the default root passoword... any tip?
[01:12] <KiloHertz> Anyone here got dual monitors running in Ubuntu with Two Graphics Cards?
[01:12] <aquarius> arbir: you can disable it by using pam_keyring, although that means that you have to log into your desktop (it can't log you in automatically)
[01:12] <Pelo> Checkka,   lsmod I think
[01:12] <aquarius> brazilian_guy: you don't need the root password; instead of using "su" to get root, use "sudo <command name>"
[01:13] <Pelo> brazilian_guy,  it's your user password,  there isnT' an actualy root in ubuntu
[01:13] <arbir> aquarius:  let me check pam_keyring
[01:13] <carcosa> how do I cure the "file size limit exceeded" error
[01:13] <jmichaelx> Pelo: ok, it says that 'floppy1' and 'floppy0' are mount points that do not exist...
[01:13] <aquarius> carcosa: where do you get that error from?
[01:13] <TheAberrant> How do I fix a blue hue issue with Logitech quickcam express 046d:092f (using Camorama)?

[01:13] <brazilian_guy> aquarius, Pelo: no root at all?
[01:14] <Pelo> jmichaelx, I'm realy not up on how kde filemanager works,   try asking in #kubuntu
[01:14] <carcosa> in bash, also I get unspecified errors in metacity when trying the same thing
[01:14] <carcosa> it's a download
[01:14] <Pelo> !root | brazilian_guy
[01:14] <ubotu> brazilian_guy: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:14] <the_fool> hello
[01:14] <carcosa> happens with wget, scp, sftp
[01:14] <jmichaelx> Pelo: using the command line it shouldn't matter
[01:14] <moDumass> pelo woohoo i made a live cd ages ago for my gf, hopefully this will work
[01:14] <erfdain> how do i list packages that depend on something? like if i wanted to know everything that depends on dpkg....
[01:14] <brazilian_guy> ubotu: yea, but it means any user can run sudo?
[01:14] <dougie> the command for copy is CP right?
[01:14] <Pelo> jmichaelx,  try with  /dev/floppy
[01:14] <dougie> cp*
[01:15] <Pelo> dougie,  yes cp    http://www.linuxcommand.org/index.php
[01:15] <Pelo> moDumass,  it should
[01:15] <dougie> i can't seem to change the owner of a Fat32 partition for some reason...
[01:15] <moDumass> its doing its thing right now
[01:16] <gif89pro> brazilian_guy: if you really want to set a root password: sudo passwd root      then you can su after you set a password
[01:16] <CodenameKT> I got a problem with my usb sata drive being detected. is there a package i need to dl? I installed ubuntu from the server inst with the minimal
[01:16] <d2812> gif89pro: Cant that break the recovery mode?
[01:16] <gif89pro> d2812: no idea, haven't done it
[01:17] <jmichaelx> Pelo: it keeps telling me that /dev/floppy, floppy0, floppy1 are special devices that do not exist lol
[01:17] <brazilian_guy> gif89pro: gif89pro thats true :D thanks
[01:17] <moDumass> hmm, dont know whta its doing now though
[01:17] <moDumass> looks odd
[01:17] <bimberi> brazilian_guy: no, only users who are members of the admin group get sudo privileges (unless you tinker with the configuration of course)
[01:17] <d2812> gif89pro: I'm fairly sure it does, which is why its not recommended afaik anyway
[01:17] <f0rtune> im trying to burn the dvd image of ubuntu, but i keep getting this error- There was an error writing to the disc:

[01:18] <f0rtune> im trying to burn the dvd image of ubuntu, but i keep getting this error- There was an error writing to the disc:
[01:18] <f0rtune> Unhandled error, aborting, anyone know why?
[01:18] <bimberi> d2812: it's doesn't break recovery mode per se.  it means that you're asked for the root password during its boot sequence
[01:19] <jendead> how can i make sure wine is configured to run opengl apps?
[01:20] <d2812> bimberi: ah. thanks. I knew it had a some sort of consquence for recovery, just didnt know what.
[01:20] <dave32356> hi, i've just upgraded to 7.4 and my wireless has stopped working, when i click the icon it says Could not find information on interface 'eth0:avahi' in /proc/net/dev, can anyone help?
[01:20] <bimberi> d2812: np :)
[01:20] <usser_> jendead: as long as its installed and video drivers are in place it can run
[01:20] <Nema> i have a program which won't run unless i: "echo 1000000000 > /proc/system/kernal/shmmax"  I can only do that with sudo.  how can i automate this so the program runs?
[01:20] <RawSewage> f0rtune, it's not a DVD
[01:20] <jendead> usser_ that's weird, because if i set a program to opengl mode it will no longer run
[01:21] <dougie> does anyone know why ubuntu wouldn't be letting me change the owner of a partition?
[01:21] <f0rtune> RawSewage: what do u mean?
[01:21] <dougie> its a fat32 partition
[01:21] <RawSewage> f0rtune, it's a CD
[01:21] <f0rtune> RawSewage: you mean the image?
[01:21] <RawSewage> f0rtune, yeah
[01:21] <f0rtune> RawSewage: there are DVD images of ubuntu....
[01:21] <usser_> jendead: what program?
[01:21] <RawSewage> f0rtune, ok sorry
[01:21] <CodenameKT> dougie: not in superuser?
[01:22] <Zigosity> Hey, how can I get windows PCs on a network to see my ubuntu pc? What will I have to use?
[01:22] <f0rtune> RawSewage: and i cant even get SUSE to burn
[01:22] <jendead> usser_ world of warcraft, it will run in d3d mode but once i switch to opengl it won't work at all
[01:22] <usser_> Zigosity: SAMBA SERVER
[01:22] <dougie> CodenameKT i've done sudo chown dougie /dev/sda2 several times and nothing
[01:22] <usser_> oops sorry for caps
[01:22] <bimberi> Nema: so you only want that amount for shmmax to apply while the program runs?
[01:22] <mr2> I have a live 7.04 ubuntu that will not install (freezes @ 15%) I think it has to do with only have a SATA drive ...is there a fix for this?
[01:22] <TheAberrant> Is the spca5xx included in the kernel?  Trying to diagnose this blue webcam issue...seems that I may have to build it from source
[01:22] <usser_> dougie: thats not how u do it
[01:22] <Nema> bimberi: probably
[01:22] <Zigosity> usser_, Thanks.
[01:22] <RawSewage> f0rtune, what app are you using
[01:22] <usser_> dougie: u chown mount point not the device itself
[01:22] <dougie> usser_, how do you do it then?
[01:23] <dougie> usser_, well thats not working either it just says not permitted or something
[01:23] <bimberi> Nema: because you could add that to /etc/rc.local and it will be run (as root) at system startup
[01:23] <f0rtune> RawSewage: the one build into ubuntu 'CD/DVD creator'
[01:23] <Checkka> Did feisty add the fglrx drivers?
[01:23] <dougie> dougie@dougie-desktop:~/Desktop$ sudo chown dougie /home/dougie/files
[01:23] <dougie> chown: changing ownership of `/home/dougie/files': Operation not permitted
[01:23] <usser_> jendead: hm, dunno any other app that doesnt work in gl, did u read the guide on winehq.org?
[01:24] <dougie> it lets me chown the partition but it doesn't change anything
[01:24] <CodenameKT> dougie: sudo chown USER /mnt/fat32
[01:24] <jendead> usser_ i read a guide for how to get wow to work - it suggested 2 ways to run it in opengl. both ways cause the same thing
[01:24] <Nema> bimberi: yeah.  do you think that's ok to do?  will it affect the memory available to routine tasks in general (ie, when the program in question ISNT running)
[01:24] <usser_> jendead: wow weird? what video card u have?
[01:24] <dougie> CodenameKT, yeah thats what i did... the mount point is /home/dougie/files
[01:24] <f0rtune> im trying to burn the dvd image of ubuntu, but i keep getting this error- There was an error writing to the disc:
[01:24] <f0rtune> Unhandled error, aborting, anyone know why?
[01:25] <jendead> usser_ 7800gt, it gave me a VERY hard time installing ubuntu as well. i'm also using amd_x64 version of linux in case that is part of i
[01:25] <av16ar> jrib:i've just executed "apt-get build-dep tulip" and now i'm trying to recompile the sources from scratch (need around 15min). And if I'm lucky, it might work.
[01:26] <usser_> jendead: do glxinfo | grep direct
[01:26] <TheAberrant> What's the command for the kernel version?
[01:26] <jendead> usser_ direct rendering: Yes
[01:26] <usser_> jendead: if it says yes everything is fine and u better of asking in #winehq
[01:26] <jrib> av16ar: you *have* to be able to recompile the source package from the repositories otherwise it's a bug :)
[01:26] <mr2> f0rtune: I have a simliar issue on a HP but used the same disk after on other systems ...probably a poor cd rom
[01:26] <jendead> usser_ ok, thanks :)
[01:26] <bimberi> Nema: sorry, I don't know enough about it to answer.  I'd say that if your other processes are already running OK with a lesser value then they'll be unaffected by _increasing_ a maximum
[01:27] <Nema> bimberi: great.  appreciated.
[01:27] <mr2>  I have a live 7.04 ubuntu that will not install (freezes at 15%) I think it has to do with only have a SATA drive ...is there a fix for this?
[01:27] <killown> how I do to create /dev/video?
[01:27] <bimberi> Nema: yw :)
[01:27] <fbv> Hi
[01:27] <dougie> mr2, i have a sata drive and i installed it just fine
[01:28] <av16ar> jrib: what do you mean by repositories? because I'm compiling the sources from CVS
[01:28] <killown> please
[01:28] <fbv> This is my first time here
[01:28] <RagingBull> killown: mkdir
[01:28] <Checkka> Does anyone know if Feisty comes with the ATi fglrx drivers?
[01:28] <bimberi> !hi | fbv
[01:28] <ubotu> fbv: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:28] <brazilian_guy> im trying to install amsn, but theres no amsn in the default apt source. So i downloaded that and tried dpkg -i on it, but there are some dependencies which need to be installed. Is there any way to run dpkg forcing it to download and install the needed dependeces?
[01:28] <fbv> ty
[01:28] <bimberi> yw :)
[01:28] <LjL> !repositories > av16ar    (av16ar, see the private message from Ubotu)
[01:28] <moDumass> struggling to get this live cd to boot
[01:28] <LjL> av16ar: the repositories are the places where apt-get takes packages from - binary and source ones.
[01:28] <killown> xaw tv return error open(/dev/video): No such file or directory
[01:28] <moDumass> failed to start x server
[01:28] <brazilian_guy> im new to ubuntu/debian stuff
[01:28] <concept10> Neil-, still around?
[01:29] <jrib> av16ar: well usually you will also be able to recompile from CVS, but only if they have not changed the program so that it requires newer or different libraries than the version in the repositories.  The command I gave you only gets you dependencies for the version that is in the repositories, but those are usually the same as cvs for a while
[01:29] <killown> please
[01:29] <mr2> dougie:  I have tried twice freezes and cursor stops responding and google hits show others have similar issues but can't find a resolution  Dell 320
[01:29] <killown> help me
[01:29] <fbv> Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Whatch ya doing
[01:29] <usser_> Checkka: yes but u have to take some extra step to install it
[01:29] <fbv> Bye I gtg
[01:29] <Crazytom> anyone here use elmo for pop mail accounts?
[01:29] <av16ar> i hope
[01:29] <dougie> hmm don't know was just saying its doubtful that its because your on SATA
[01:29] <fbv> See ya
[01:30] <Checkka> usser_, whats the extra step?
[01:30] <RagingBull> killown: my bad sudo mkdir /dev/video
[01:30] <usser_> Checkka: enabling binary drivers repository and downloading the driver
[01:30] <usser_> Checkka: and running setup script
[01:30] <RagingBull> is there enough room on the hD?
[01:30] <RagingBull> for the install
[01:31] <Checkka> usser_, is this all done through apt get?
[01:31] <d2812> brazilian_guy: system -> Adminstation -> Software Sources
[01:31] <usser_> usser_: yep
[01:31] <elj4176> ive got a skunked up gui and i dunno how to fix it ;) i tried an update on a perfectly working dapper box and it didnt go so well. now when i reboot i get all boxes instead of characters.

[01:31] <htaccess> anyone aware of a bug with fiesty which causes ping to wait 5 seconds between sending querys and causes ssh sessions to take a long time to start (appears to be resolver related)?

[01:32] <ubotu> Checkka: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:32] <d2812> brazilian_guy: then on the screen that pops up select the ubuntu sources, making sure you include universe(thats where amsn is)
[01:32] <moDumass> cant log in with live cd, keeps saying xserver failed to start
[01:32] <Catachan> is fluxbuntu actually up there on the official ubuntus with Kubuntu and Xubuntu?
[01:32] <dougie> moDumass you need to use the alternate cd
[01:32] <dougie> so you can do a text based install
[01:33] <d2812> brazilian_guy: now you can apt-get install amsn :)
[01:33] <mvfeinstein> can anyone tell me if there is a way to set up ubuntu to allow multiple remote x connections
[01:34] <moDumass> dougie, im not installing
[01:34] <RagingBull> elj4176: check /var/log/ Xorg.0.log to see why it keeps failing
[01:34] <dougie> moDumass, oh well there is a problem with the video card driver its trying to load most likely...not sure how to fix it though but i had the same problem on my laptop
[01:34] <RagingBull> that will give you a starting point
[01:34] <ethereality> apt-get is the command-line tool for handling packages, and may be
[01:34] <ethereality>        considered the users "back-end" to other tools using the APT library.
[01:34] <av16ar> jrib: the developers told me the origin of the compiling error I got with Ubuntu may be the fact the Qt devel packages provided by Ubuntu are different from those provided by Fedora Core 6
[01:34] <ethereality> what does back-end mean?
[01:35] <moDumass> dougie my hdd is ful so i cant login, now i have logged in from live cd, its all good
[01:35] <f0rtune> im trying to burn the dvd image of ubuntu, but i keep getting this error- There was an error writing to the disc:
[01:35] <f0rtune>  Unhandled error, aborting, anyone know why?
[01:35] <moDumass> how do i mount my 2 hdds that i want to transfer files between?
[01:35] <elj4176> thx raging bull
[01:35] <dougie> are they ide hard drive?
[01:35] <dougie> or sata?
[01:36] <mr2> dougie: can you explain this resolution for SATA support? from Ubuntux.org  The solution was:When you start your live CD, you get to the menu of the CD, which lets you change language, keyboard, etc... You have to pass this value to the kernel, before starting the installation (I don't remember the key you have to press to get to the kernel boot options, but I know it was easy to find):pci=nomsiAppend
[01:37] <dougie> if ide it will be like sudo mount /dev/hda1 or hda2 the number is the partition number if sata it would be sda1 or sda2
[01:37] <dougie> mr2, i didn't have to do anything special
[01:37] <levander> usser_: I'm trying the ffmpeg command line to encode to AAC.  But, I'm getting an "Uknown codec 'aac'" error.  Is there some package I have to install so that ffmpeg can encode to AAC?
[01:38] <levander> usser_: you still there?
[01:38] <dougie> anyone know how to enable UDF support in ubuntu?
[01:38] <Trae> man, should I not be using Ubuntu 7.04?  I was using 6.10, 6.04 warty etc.... and never had the thing lock up on this machine.  Now, I install 7.04 and it keeps locking up on me :(
[01:38] <elj4176> ragingbull: i looked at the log and it said something about a font but x will start - i just cant read anything
[01:38] <Trae> I wiped and did a complete re-install too
[01:38] <levander> dougie: I tried that about a year ago and had a helluva time.  I ended up just thinking it was buggy and didn't work.

[01:42] <seven_six_two> where does iwconfig keep it's configuration? I tried to change my wireless settings in /etc/network/interfaces but it had no effect
[01:43] <jrib> Drk_guy: sudo apt-get install libgift0    I was trying to give the word "installing" some emphasis
[01:43] <seven_six_two> only ifconfig seems to change that file
[01:44] <tjs> just wondering if getting all the broken stuff working on install for indel macs is a target of ubuntu or if its going to remain a DIY job? ie: should I bother going through 2 days of pain? or will it 'get better' ?
[01:44] <Drk_guy> Jrib, please look at the PasteBin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20739/

[01:44] <ncd> hey does any one here want to make a game
[01:44] <jrib> Drk_guy: what is gift-0.11.8-i686
[01:44] <tjs> ncd: take it to #ncdWantsToMakeAGame
[01:44] <bruenig> haha
[01:44] <ncd> heh
[01:44] <ncd> whats your offtopic channel?
[01:44] <Drk_guy> It is a package for accessing the P2P nets trough the giFT Core
[01:44] <Pollywog> !fonts > pollywog
[01:44] <bruenig> if you can make a game in bash, I am up for it
[01:45] <tjs> ncd: #debian
[01:45] <Drk_guy> Jrib, www.gift.sourceforge.net
[01:45] <knoeki> my shift key just stopped working incorrectly about 15 minutes ago... i already tried a diffrent keyboard but it doesn't help... is this common? should i reboot? (both are usb keyboards btw)...
[01:45] <jrib> Drk_guy: that is what is causing your trouble
[01:45] <bruenig> knoeki, if it stopped working incorrectly, are we to assume that it therefore works correctly?
[01:45] <Drk_guy> Jrib, how comes that?
[01:45] <Drk_guy> Jrib, explain it plz
[01:45] <vulcan40> LOL
[01:45] <jrib> Drk_guy: because that isn't a package in the ubuntu repositories
[01:45] <ncd> some production quality games are needed
[01:45] <tjs> knoeki: how did you type a ? without a shift key?
[01:46] <knoeki> bruenig: oops, i mean stopped working correctly
[01:46] <tjs> or ( )
[01:46] <Drk_guy> But IT IS caching the file from the archive repos Jrib
[01:46] <jrib> Drk_guy: remove gift-0.11.8-i686, you're problem will go away
[01:46] <knoeki> tjs: the funny thing is that shift does work when i activate caps lock..
[01:47] <Drk_guy> I'll try the sudo apt-get remove gift-0.11.8-i686 command Jrib
[01:47] <Pollywog> if I put some fonts in ~/.fonts/ how do I make apps look there for fonts?
[01:47] <tjs> thats pretty weird
[01:47] <knoeki> tjs: kinda...
[01:47] <jrib> Pollywog: should do that by default, run fc-cache and restart the app if they don't
[01:47] <Pollywog> jrib: ty
[01:47] <knoeki> i should probably just reboot...
[01:47] <tjs> knoeki: wait
[01:48] <knoeki> yes?
[01:48] <Drk_guy> Look at the pastebin Jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20740/
[01:48] <tjs> knoeki: if you alt+ctrl+f2
[01:48] <tjs> does it work out of X
[01:48] <|-David-|> *--[Amsg]  test [Amsg] --*
[01:48] <jrib> Drk_guy: is gift-0.11.8-i686 still installed?
[01:48] <moDumass> hey all, so ive booted in via live cd, and ive mounted the hdd thats full, or at least that partition, how do i remove some of the crap on it?
[01:48] <bruenig> oh wow |-David-| how did you do that
[01:48] <Drk_guy> Idk Jrib
[01:48] <obiwan_> can anyone tell me how to get cthugha to work ?
[01:49] <jrib> Drk_guy: apt-cache policy gift-0.11.8-i686
[01:49] <|-David-|> lol, hang on, bruenig.
[01:49] <|-David-|> I'm testing something
[01:49] <tjs> moDumass: remout it read/write
[01:49] <knoeki> tjs: that shortcut doesn't work.
[01:49] <mistone> I am trying to install ubuntu on a computer where the CD drive won't boot up and I can't access the BIOS
[01:49] <mistone> how do I do it
[01:49] <tjs> knoeki: ??
[01:49] <jrib> |-David-|: please don't test stuff here
[01:49] <Drk_guy> Look at the pastebon Jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20741/
[01:49] <Ohzie> If I have an Athlon64 and I'm using ubuntu for desktop stuff, including gaming, are there any things I should consider about using the 64 bit distro? Would it be easier for me to just use the 32 bit one?
[01:49] <bruenig> mistone, that is not likely to happen then
[01:49] <seven_six_two> where does iwconfig keep it's configuration? I tried to change my wireless settings in /etc/network/interfaces but it had no effect
[01:50] <knoeki> tjs: screen glitches up... probably because the ati videocard...
[01:50] <Ohzie> And would the 32 bit one work for an Athlon64?
[01:50] <mistone> bruenig: you are saying  I can't install ubuntu ?
[01:50] <vulcan40> easier with 32 for sure
[01:50] <knoeki> tjs: should i just open terminal?
[01:50] <Enverex> Does anyone here happen to have or use a Dell Inspiron 6400?
[01:50] <|-David-|> ok, i'll part the chan for a bit...bruenig, type /query |-David-| and i'll tell you when i get a chance
[01:50] <tjs> knoeki: do a /etc/init.d/gdm stop (to kill X) and see if its working outside of X, /etc/init.d/gdm start should get you back to x afterwards
[01:51] <knoeki> okay.
[01:51] <tjs> will tell you if its an X issue or a hardware/driver thingo
[01:51] <bruenig> mistone, it is only installable via cd or dvd, so I would say so
[01:51] <moDumass> i used 'sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt' command
[01:51] <pilgrim> I've got an ibook g4...which version of ubuntu can I download?
[01:51] <moDumass> but i dont know how to get into it
[01:51] <knoeki> tjs: invalid command...
[01:52] <tjs> knoeki: sudo
[01:52] <Drk_guy> Pilgrim, dl the version you need, if you have a Core Duo, dl the Athlon 64 ver.
[01:52] <Och4> the program azureus is in another language and i don't know how to change it.  help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[01:52] <knoeki> tjs: okay
[01:52] <stefg> !ppc | pilgrim
[01:52] <ubotu> pilgrim: PowerPC.  Formerly used by Apple for the Macintosh line of computers. Variants are now used in popular gaming consoles. PPC was a fully supported Ubuntu architecture up to and including edgy. It is now a community port, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
[01:52] <jrib> Drk_guy: ok, either: visit packages.ubuntu.com and download the deb for libgift0 and install with dpkg (force overwrite) or figure out the switch to apt-get to force it to overwrite, then remove gift-0.11.8-i686, and then reinstall libgift0
[01:52] <bruenig> Och4, java does suck
[01:52] <Drk_guy> Och4, try using Deluge, it is better
[01:52] <welshchris> got a Dell XPS
[01:53] <jrib> Drk_guy: actually, try "apt-get remove apollon" and see if that succeeds
[01:53] <Och4> drk_guy, what about the program called "bittorrent" it comes with automatix???
[01:53] <Olipro> hey guys
[01:53] <bruenig> !automatix | Och4
[01:53] <ubotu> Och4: 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
[01:53] <Olipro> did your channel get attacked?
[01:53] <bruenig> !howdy | Olipro
[01:53] <ubotu> Olipro: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:53] <oriez> is there any good translation software in ubuntu, something like Babylon
[01:53] <spaz> hey Olipro
[01:53] <Olipro> we just got an attack from w00t
[01:53] <jrib> Olipro: nope
[01:53] <bruenig> Olipro, not recently as in not in the past few hours
[01:54] <Och4> !worksforme
[01:54] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[01:54] <spaz> wow, i mention a channel and half of #uncyclopedia takes a look o_o
[01:54] <vulcan40> heck automatix was the only way I could get Java working properly
[01:54] <Olipro> bruenig: oh, I was there when he joined our channel so I saw him coming earlier
[01:54] <khatahn> is there a good graphical network monitor for linux that displays clearly all the connections and bandwidth usage? something like iptraf but graphical
[01:54] <Olipro> I was off doing things this time sadle

[01:54] <dondong> anybody know why,whats wrong with my google earth?
[01:54] <jrib> dondong: you have to tell us what is wrong with it

[01:54] <spaz> dondong: we can't know if you don't know the problem

[02:10] <jrib> dondong: apparently there should be an "uninstall" script in the google-earth directory
[02:10] <SlicerDicer-> anybody using software linux raid??
[02:10] <jrib> Drk_guy: kde or gnome?
[02:10] <Drk_guy> Gnome
[02:10] <dondong> thanx,guys,very nice of you,thanx jrib,ill try
[02:10] <Drk_guy> Kde is for older systems
[02:11] <ZeZu> kde is for older systems?
[02:11] <ZeZu> doesn't it use more resources?
[02:11] <tjs> Drk_guy: thats fud mate
[02:11] <Drk_guy> Fud?
[02:11] <ZeZu> I know kde was always more sluggish on my older hardware
[02:11] <tjs> google it
[02:11] <stefg> oh no..... no KDE-Gnome flamewar.... #ubuntu-offtopic for that
[02:12] <Drk_guy> Ok, tjs, i am fud
[02:12] <m0`> err :x
[02:12] <Drk_guy> I am really fud
[02:12] <m0`> How do we (within terminal) change the home directory of a user?
[02:12] <jrib> Drk_guy: does the application still open after those errors?
[02:12] <tjs> really, I have not run KDE in 5 years, but you cant make statements like that without expecting to be called a troll
[02:12] <av16ar> jrib: excuse for the translation line code, it should be line 77 in the pastebin
[02:12] <Drk_guy> Nope, not even with sudo Jrib
[02:12] <jrib> m0`: usermod
[02:12] <Drk_guy> And it doesn't un-install now
[02:13] <Pollywog> Elmer Fud?
[02:13] <jrib> av16ar: are you sure cvs compiles?  try compiling a stable release
[02:13] <tjs> 'FUD is an abbreviation for Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt, a sales or marketing strategy of disseminating negative but vague or inaccurate information on a competitor's product. The term originated to describe misinformation tactics in the computer software industry and has since been used more broadly.'
[02:13] <Drk_guy> Google define: fud Pollywog
[02:14] <Pollywog> yes I know what it means :)
[02:14] <bitchxwicked> hey my gnome manager quit working....
[02:14] <m0`> I messed up ubuntu (2nd day trying ubuntu) I created two users, "family", and "m0"  I customized family for my needs but now I didn't want two usernames, just one user. So I deleted m0, and renamed family to m0 and deleted home directory family
[02:14] <Drk_guy> I must retire
[02:14] <Drk_guy> Bye
[02:14] <m0`> When I log in now, it says invalid home directory and all those bad errors which wont let me log in now
[02:14] <Pollywog> btw I put some fonts in ~/.fonts/ and ooo does see them :)
[02:14] <|ryan|> is there ono kismet package for ubuntu?
[02:14] <|ryan|> no
[02:15] <arrow_> I'm trying to hook my notebook up to the internet using wifi, does anyone know how I would find "Netork name (ESSID):"?
[02:15] <jrib> m0`: usermod is the command (with appropriate options), you can also just edit /etc/passwd directly
[02:15] <baghyay> salam hi
[02:15] <Och4> does anyone know the program, gdesklets??  im having troubles with it. ie: never staying in the same spot, doesn't work well with beryl, and disappearing.
[02:15] <av16ar> jrib: I guess yes, it worked with Fedora.
[02:15] <Pollywog> ESSID is something you set in the wifi router and in your config
[02:15] <bitchxwicked> heres a good question... does anyone know how to enable ntfs write on a usb disk /dev/sda1 real quick?
[02:16] <bitchxwicked> maybe an apt-get program or something
[02:16] <bitchxwicked> so i can save some stuff and then reload to 7.04
[02:16] <jrib> av16ar: same checkout?
[02:17] <m0`> jrib: how do I rename group ?
[02:17] <jrib> m0`: what do you mean by that?
[02:17] <bitchxwicked> anyone know how to enable ntfs? maybe an apt-get program i can download real quick or something?
[02:17] <stefg> m0`: as you found out yourself that was quite stupid :-) Internally Linux operates on UIDs User ID's these are numbers, not names. you got to boot in safe mode and do some chown operations on the command-line
[02:17] <Pollywog> !ntfs
[02:17] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:17] <av16ar> jrib: What do you mean?
[02:18] <m0`> stefg: I am on bootsafe mode right now, I di sudo usermod -d /home/m0 m0
[02:18] <m0`> but now I need to rename the group from family to m0
[02:18] <arrow_> Pollywog, would I look at 192.168.1.1 then?
[02:18] <m0`> Err why did I do that :< I setup ubuntu perfect to my needs just a simple rename user messed my thing up :(
[02:18] <stefg> m0`: chown -R m0 /home/m0
[02:18] <knoeki> please, quick, how do I turn restart X? or turn it on?
[02:19] <stefg> m0`: chown -R m0:m0 /home/m0  rather
[02:19] <jrib> av16ar: the code that you compiled on fedore, was it the same code that you are compiling now (not a new checkout)?
[02:19] <Pollywog> arrow: make up a name of your choice and you put that in your wifi router in the place where ESSID goes
[02:19] <Och4> whats the program that shows your cpu, ram, etc useage in the taskbar area (whatever it's called)??
[02:19] <knoeki> someone told me to turn it of few mins ago and now my system crashes 5mins after booting
[02:19] <Pollywog> and you put it in your notebook too in the config in /etc/network/interfaces
[02:19] <knoeki> I already had to reboot 3 times..
[02:20] <Pollywog> if you have a linksys router the default is SSID is linksys, but you should change it
[02:20] <bitchxwicked> !ntfs-3g
[02:20] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[02:20] <m0`> stefg: m0 invalid group
[02:21] <Pollywog> arrow which card do you have in the notebook?
[02:21] <QuarkPup> Och4: system load monitor?
[02:21] <m0`> stefg: When I deleted username m0, the grp deleted as well
[02:21] <Pollywog> if it is rt2500 maybe I can send you a sample config
[02:21] <m0`> Err, I guess I have to reinstall ubuntue
[02:21] <stefg> m0`: i c ... so 'adduser m0' again
[02:21] <jrib> m0`: that shouldn't be necessary
[02:22] <CptFuzzy> bitchxwicked: aptitude install ntfs-3g
[02:22] <CptFuzzy> ops... already answered... sry
[02:22] <av16ar> jrib: I'm not absolutely certain it was the same but I strongly think yes becauce it was just a few days ago.
[02:22] <m0`> jrib: I get all these errorrs
[02:23] <sudobash> yeah thanks
[02:23] <m0`> jrib:An error occured while loading or saving configuration for gnome panel
[02:23] <m0`> jrib: An error occured while loading or saving configuration for Panel Manger
[02:23] <jrib> m0`: so just create a new user
[02:24] <jrib> av16ar: lines 16 and 17 seem to indicate the problem but I'm not much of a c++ programmer
[02:24] <stefg> m0`: so add a fresh user first, to have something to log in graphically again. you can copy the home-dir later and chown it
[02:24] <conn> hi, is anyone here using beryl with a nvidia card and experiencing bad performance? I have a possible solution
[02:24] <mao> anyone know opengl with s3virge video driver?
[02:24] <jrib> m0`: make sure you put your new user in the "admin" group so you don't need to return to recovery mode
[02:24] <baghyay> i install grub-gfx but i find the grub normzl
[02:25] <baghyay> how can i install grub-gfx
[02:25] <sudobash> it says i need to run ntfsfix on it but i dont have it and apt-get doesnt know what ntfsfix is
[02:25] <m0`> jrib: I created user temp123 now
[02:25] <m0`> jrib: Should I do anything else?
[02:25] <Catachan> the profile import on the install CD, does it actually import the entire profile? or just settings? Like, If I want to import my home dir from Debian, then will it import the whole thing, programs and all?
[02:25] <m0`> admin group
[02:26] <sudobash> baghyay> try apt-get install grub-gfx
[02:26] <sudobash> or try synaptic
[02:26] <av16ar> jrib: you mean the line beginning by #include?
[02:27] <av16ar> lines*

[02:28] <sudobash> cool thanks for the ntfsprogs
[02:28] <m0`> Is there any way I could save my user before? I did too much installation , around 7 hours last night
[02:29] <sudobash> charles also do sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs
[02:29] <m0`> I don't want to delete everything i did :
[02:29] <knoeki> well, I hope restarting X works...
[02:29] <jrib> av16ar: nah, I mean in the pastebin, from the actual error
[02:29] <knoeki> else I'll have to reinstall ubuntu...>.<
[02:29] <sudobash> i cant believe im about to say this but im about to go to windows xp to play counter strike... but only for a few days then ill move to 7.04
[02:30] <charles> it still won't let me paste anything into it
[02:30] <variant> sudobash: why don't you install in in wine?
[02:30] <carutsu_> does anyone know a solution for my problem with OOo?
[02:30] <stefg> sudobash: you know what the term Wintendo means, don't you?
[02:31] <av16ar> jrib: I've been told that in an compiling error, the intersting line is the first line where it bugs.
[02:31] <j0nas`> has anyone had any luck with Xinerama?
[02:31] <av16ar> jrib: it is possible that the error comes from a further line?
[02:32] <sudobash> variant> the fps are to slow in wine and i dont have the money to buy cedega
[02:32] <sudobash> its works pretty well actually
[02:32] <jrib> av16ar: add another 0 to the addWidget call on line 88 of the pastebin and see if it compiles
[02:32] <sudobash> but the fps is still lagging
[02:32] <wauwau> stefan!
[02:32] <jrib> av16ar: hmm, actually looking at the code I geuss that doesn't make sense
[02:33] <variant> sudobash: i see, you can probably optimise it quite a lot
[02:33] <benkong2> I got a problem trying to change my sources.list I used this list http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/blog/?page_id=13
[02:33] <mistone> how do I mount a usb harddrive in ubuntu server ?
[02:33] <benkong2> now I am trying to grep the output for just the missing keys so I did aptitude update |grep NO_PUBKEY >> missing.keys but They are not there
[02:33] <benkong2> what's wrong?
[02:33] <niriven_> there an easy way to change the ubuntu splash (loading window) and backdround?
[02:34] <mikeo1> how do i change the screen resolution in ubutnu
[02:34] <mikeo1> i already reconfigured x with dpkg and it still doesnt work
[02:34] <m0`> I am doing this:  "sudo adduser m0"  => the group m0 already exists...
[02:34] <jrib> benkong2: errors probably get printed to stderr, not stdout
[02:34] <m0`> Then I am doing this: "sudo deluser m0" => the user m0 does not exist
[02:34] <mikeo1> only at 1440x900 when this monitor can do 1680x1050
[02:34] <|-David-|> Alright, finished testing
[02:34] <|-David-|> lol
[02:34] <ryancr>  anyone the max res of a ati 7000 (rv100) reason i ask is i am trying to run compiz at 1680x1050 but the last 4inchs of my screen are all messed up...and the effects work on the rest of the screen just fine
[02:34] <Kr0ntab> mikeo1, SYstem --> Preferences --> Screen res
[02:34] <mikeo1> and i added the higher res to xorg
[02:35] <sudobash> the thing is the drive i am trying to mount with ntfs-3g has a corrupt MBR so it is always going to deny it even though i use the force option
[02:35] <variant> ryancr: what kind of display is it? is it a widescreen laptop|
[02:35] <jrib> benkong2: also, you're asking for headaches if you use a list like that
[02:35] <ryancr> wide screen 22" lcd
[02:35] <j0nas`> has anyone had any luck with Xinerama?
[02:35] <carutsu_> mikeo1: are you using intel chipset?
[02:35] <benkong2> jrib: so whold I do aptitude update | grep NO_PUBKEY  >>$1>$2
[02:35] <lucky_> mikeo1, did you try the screen resolution gui under system>preferences?
[02:35] <j0nas`> i followed a howto on the forums but i still only get one screen... :(
[02:35] <ryancr> variant:its an lg226wt
[02:36] <variant> ryancr: can you post a screenshot of what it looks like?
[02:36] <mikeo1> its running kubuntu right now
[02:36] <benkong2> why headaches?
[02:36] <ryancr> sure one sec
[02:36] <variant> ryancr: nice screen :)
[02:36] <mikeo1> nope doesnt show up there
[02:36] <jrib> benkong2: because 3rd party repos usually cause them
[02:36] <mikeo1> only 1440x900
[02:36] <ryancr> i just got it...so far its pretty sweet
[02:36] <benkong2> jrib:
[02:36] <benkong2> jrib:  oh ok
[02:36] <benkong2> thanks
[02:36] <Akuma_> the jvm that comes with the ubuntu restricted package is sun's, right?
[02:36] <mikeo1> how do i add 1680x1050?
[02:36] <sudobash> !ntfstools
[02:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ntfstools - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:37] <jrib> benkong2: you probably want something like 2>&1 somewhere in there
[02:37] <j0nas`> !xinerama
[02:37] <ubotu> xinerama is an extension to !X to use two or more physical displays as one large virtual display. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/XineramaHowTo - See also !DualHead

[02:37] <baghyay> when i installing grub-gfx  i have that baghyay@baghyay-desktop:~$ sudo grub-install hd0
[02:37] <baghyay> Installation finished. No error reported.
[02:37] <baghyay> This is the contents of the device map /boot/grub/device.map.
[02:37] <baghyay> Check if this is correct or not. If any of the lines is incorrect,
[02:37] <baghyay> fix it and re-run the script `grub-install'.

[02:37] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[02:38] <domingo> hi
[02:38] <carutsu_> mikeo1: again are you using intel chipset?
[02:38] <lucky_> mikeo1, sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf . then just navigate down to the screen section towards the bottum and you can manually edit the resolutions
[02:38] <av16ar> jrib: well, maybe it's an optional parameter, but why not i'm gonna try it.
[02:38] <mikeo1> i am using nvidia chipset
[02:38] <mikeo1> nvidia onboard gforce graphics
[02:38] <mikeo1> mx440 i think
[02:39] <gimmulf_> hmmm getting this error when i try to restart apache: apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using 127.0.0.1 for ServerName
[02:39] <mikeo1> i manually edited the resolutions but it doesnt want to use the highest one
[02:39] <jrib> av16ar: ok try it, but I think you're right.  It must mess up with lementPropertiesWidget*& and it's not a pointer to a QWidget
[02:39] <nom_> How can I make Beryl run on startup, i have the settings all set -up but they never actually work
[02:39] <stefg> mikeo1: you need nvidia-glx-legacy for that
[02:39] <mikeo1> i have nvidia drivers installed
[02:39] <mikeo1> and i am using them
[02:39] <sudobash> is there a way to force the drive to mount even though it tells me that the logfile is bad... i think the mbr is bad becuase the drive wont boot it will just store data.... it was given to me...
[02:40] <nom_> How can I make Beryl run on startup, i have the settings all set -up but they never actually work
[02:40] <stefg> !beryl | nom_
[02:40] <ubotu> nom_: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[02:40] <sudobash> there is a how to on how to make beryl one of you startup option
[02:40] <sudobash> s
[02:40] <mikeo1> i dont see a place to change the screen resolution in nvidia-settings though
[02:40] <stefg> !effects
[02:40] <ubotu> For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects.
[02:41] <stefg> mikeo1: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:41] <mikeo1> did it already
[02:41] <sudobash> mikeo1> isnt there an app to change res. in propeties next to the Administrator tools
[02:41] <sudobash> ?
[02:41] <mikeo1> didnt detect the highest
[02:41] <lucky_> mikeo1, nvidia-xconfig
[02:41] <sudobash> wait
[02:41] <jrib> av16ar: maybe it just needs a different version of qt, check what ubuntu has and what you had on fedora
[02:42] <sudobash> just manually edit the xorg.conf file
[02:42] <lucky_> it allows you to choose supported resolutions in there i believe
[02:42] <sudobash> i can get 1280:1024 by just editing the xorg.conf
[02:42] <Tsuamia> Hey does anyone know how I can Install Pidgin?
[02:42] <stefg> mikeo1: might be an issue of using the standard nvidia-drivers instaed of the nvidia-glx-legacy ones, which are recommended for MX 440
[02:42] <mikeo1> nvidia xconfig didnt do it
[02:42] <mikeo1> still at the default
[02:42] <maikol> how can i install cups 1.1
[02:43] <Borat> tsumania, go to the website pidgin.im and then download the deb,
[02:43] <sudobash> let me ssh to your box real quick and i can vi you xorg.conf file... i will even make a xorg.conf.backup
[02:43] <Tsuamia> borat:I couldn't find a deb
[02:43] <lucky_> mikeo1, can you post your xorg.conf somewhere?
[02:43] <sudobash> yeah do that
[02:43] <lucky_> patebin or whatever its called
[02:43] <sudobash> the part that you need to edit will look like:
[02:43] <mikeo1> going to install the legacy drivers
[02:44] <Tsuamia> Windows  Source  Fedora Core  CentOS / RHEL are all that's there
[02:44] <mikeo1> will they still work with beryl?
[02:44] <sudobash> its in the Screens section
[02:44] <cables> Where can I put a command to have it execute when X starts?
[02:44] <mikeo1> when i reconfigure x with legacy drivers do i select nvidia or nv?
[02:44] <nekostah> o:
[02:45] <darksoule> how do I modify the grub so I can use Windows too.
[02:45] <sudobash> modes      "1280x1024"  "1280x960"  "1024x768"  etc...
[02:45] <shawn34> mikeo1, nvidia
[02:45] <sudobash> nvidia
[02:45] <nekostah> hey i'm having a bit of a wierd problem..... i'm at a friends and installing ubuntu and the ide hdd is seen by the installer as a scsi for starters
[02:45] <nekostah> then on one of the partitions i just made it tells me everytime i wanna format it that i have a crc error... any clues what could be the cause of this?
[02:46] <h3xis> how do i check which version of xorg i'm running?
[02:46] <nekostah> darksoule: sudo nano /etc/boot/grub/menu.1st
[02:46] <nekostah> there is an example of windows right there
[02:46] <nekostah> but grub should have picked up windows during the install and asked if it was ok to install grub to first hdd etc
[02:46] <nekostah> did you not get that ???
[02:46] <Tsuamia> does anyone know which deb I should download?
[02:46] <Tsuamia> http://packages.debian.org/unstable/net/pidgin
[02:47] <nekostah> Tsuamia you want gaim? sudo apt-get install gaim ;)
[02:47] <Tsuamia> no I want pidgin
[02:47] <h3xis> Tsuamia you shouldnt be using debian repos in ubuntu
[02:48] <jsizzle> anyone else having trouble with azureus crashing on startup?
[02:48] <Neil-> http://pidgin.im/pidgin/download/source/
[02:48] <stefg> Tsuamia: why? nothing in pidgin that gaimcan't do as well
[02:48] <Neil-> Tsuamia: I use source from there
[02:48] <av16ar> jrib: on Fedora, it's 3.3.6 and on Ubuntu it's 3.3.8
[02:48] <darksoule> I installed ubuntu before windows.
[02:48] <ArtificialSynaps> ahhh
[02:48] <Neil-> stefg: There is now, pidgin has new stuff in the latest one
[02:48] <sudobash> man ntfs-3g and ntfsfix arent working for me
[02:48] <jsizzle> I can get to the config wizard but then it crashes
[02:48] <antum> Hi, Is there a way to re-install Ubuntu, Currently on Feisty and want to get back to Edgy

[02:48] <TcoUpLoad> i
[02:48] <nekostah> antum yeah really easilyu
[02:49] <nekostah> did you make seperate partitions for / and /home ?
[02:49] <Neil-> Tsuamia: its possible, what went wrong?
[02:49] <snowpunk98> Any idea why my totem won't work in web pages
[02:49] <antum> Um, someone else installed the machine...
[02:49] <nekostah> if so when reinstalling just manually partition... but like Neil- there is implying most likely you can fix it otherwise
[02:49] <Pelo> snowpunk98, codecs ?
[02:49] <Tsuamia> Neil: some gtk development thing
[02:49] <sudobash> !ntfs
[02:49] <nekostah> altho ssh is horridly slow
[02:49] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[02:49] <PunkUnity> finally got mIRC to work at my dads house, didnt remember what the server was called
[02:49] <snowpunk98> I can't listen to javascript:var%20open_child_window=%20window.open%20('http://gameradio.nhl.com/cc/playa.php?url=http://boss.streamos.com/wmedia-live/nhl/9284/20_nhl-anaheim_game_audio_050909.asx','mp','height=320,width=400');

[02:50] <nobx> hey i'm having no sound at all after hibernating in Feisty... is this a known problem? it didn't happen before
[02:50] <Neil-> Tsuamia: Sounds like you were missing a package?
[02:50] <stefg> snowpunk98: notice the middel part, where it says 'windows media' :-)
[02:50] <Neil-> Should come with a list of requirements
[02:50] <Tsuamia> Neil: yeah gtk 2.0 but I can't work out how to get it
[02:50] <Neil-> Ah..
[02:50] <Tsuamia> tried sudo ap-t get etc
[02:50] <Tsuamia> apt-get*
[02:51] <snowpunk98> stefg, is there anyway for me to get it to work
[02:51] <Neil-> Search synaptic for 'gtk' and see if you see it listed
[02:51] <Pelo> TcoUpLoad,  you might have to install the propiratary driver ,  search for your card model in the forum to make sure
[02:51] <Tsuamia> Okay
[02:51] <Pupeno> What do I have to install to play internet 'radio' on rythmbox?
[02:51] <mcn06> Hi, does anyone know of a prolog ide for ubuntu/
[02:51] <stefg> snowpunk98: get w32codecs, mplayer and mozia-mplayer plugin, deinstalll totem-mozilla
[02:51] <stefg> snowpunk98: get w32codecs, mplayer and mozilla-mplayer plugin, deinstalll totem-mozilla
[02:51] <shawn34> Pupeno, works out of the box i think
[02:52] <sudobash> hey does anyone know how to force ntfs-3g to mount
[02:52] <jrib> av16ar: I don't know, not really sure why it won't compile
[02:52] <shawn34> Pupeno, i prefer amarok over rhythmbox though
[02:52] <mikeo1> still doesnt detect the highest resolution
[02:53] <Pupeno> shawn34: here it didn't work out of the box.
[02:53] <Pelo> Pupeno,  check the rhytmbox site to learn which pluggin you need,  and install it from synaptic,  or try searching synaptic for radio and see if there is a rythmbox related package
[02:53] <mikeo1> i tried installing the legacy drivers but got a kernel mistmatch nvidia error thinggy
[02:53] <av16ar> jrib: according to the main developer it would be because, there's missing file in the Ubuntu's package
[02:53] <mikeo1> so i just reinstalled nvidia-glx
[02:53] <snowpunk98> arg I get errors
[02:53] <jrib> av16ar: can he tell which file?
[02:53] <Pelo> mikeo1,  you might need to add the extra resoution you need to xorg.conf manualy
[02:53] <mikeo1> that was the first thing i did
[02:53] <zlx> Hey, Is there a way to get programs to load up on startup to different desktops?
[02:53] <m0`> how do we make a user get admin priveleges after we do sudo adduser m0
[02:53] <mikeo1> hte problem is it doesnt use it
[02:53] <sudobash> i think ntfs-3g is so unstable because they expect that the ntfs drive is bootable and dont want to mess the boot process up
[02:54] <mikeo1> it uses one lower than the one i added
[02:54] <jrib> m0`: sudo adduser m0 admin

[02:56] <Akuma_> how can i uninstall gnu java?
[02:56] <Hny> hi
[02:56] <stefg> jimmy_: so sudo apt-get remove gaim first
[02:56] <jrib> moDumass: remove downloaded debs that apt-get uses (see   man apt-get)
[02:57] <Pelo> zlx,   you'll need to use devilspie , it's in synaptic,  you'll need to make little rules,  there is a read me with exemple in the /user/bin/devilspie folder  ( or somewhere there about)
[02:57] <jimmy_> stefg,  i can't, it asks me to also remove ubuntu-desktop ?
[02:57] <SimonYee> look like ubuntu after installation of security
[02:57] <SimonYee> goes into installation of 6.10
[02:57] <stefg> jimmy_: ubuntu-dektop is just a meta-package... don't worry
[02:57] <zlx> cheers pelo ill give it ago :)
[02:57] <av16ar> jrib: He doesn't exactly remember but he told me it is a header file ("dot h") so I also installed the package libqt3-compat-headers but I still got the same error :(
[02:57] <IndyGunFreak> jimmy_: do you have the .deb file for pidgin, or are you going to compile it?
[02:57] <SimonYee> it takes 5 hours is this normal ?
[02:57] <sudobash> ahah allow_other
[02:57] <jimmy_> IndyGunFreak, i was just going to install it via synaptic
[02:58] <IndyGunFreak> jimmy_: is it in synaptic?.. i hadn't saw it there
[02:58] <Pelo> jimmy_,  you can remove ubuntu-desktop safely it's just a meta package which is used to install the rest of the desktop , you can remove that package with no ill effects
[02:58] <jrib> av16ar: I thought that you would get some errors about not being able to find an include if that happened.  Try to compile the source from the repos just to see if it works (apt-get source tulip)
[02:58] <SimonYee> hi room
[02:58] <jimmy_> IndyGunFreak, I added a repo, sorry
[02:58] <SimonYee> what is the differences in 6.0.6 and 6.10 ?
[02:59] <TcoUpLoad> but pelo on fedora with a 2 screen connect to vga external i have X imagem but on laptop i have black screen
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> jimmy_: oh ok.. no apology necessary
[02:59] <av16ar> jrib: ok i'm trying
[02:59] <Pelo> TcoUpLoad, wrong person
[02:59] <SimonYee> I am from malaysia
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> SimonYee: other thant he current version is 7.04, they are both old.. there isn't *that* much differene
[02:59] <SimonYee> I know about 7.04
[02:59] <IndyGunFreak> 6.10 will have more updated software, etc.
[02:59] <SimonYee> have not gotten cd yet
[03:00] <chamunks>  /join #ubuntu-effects
[03:00] <jimmy_> stefg, should i put ubuntu-desktop back after?
[03:00] <lucky_> mikeo1, can you post your xorg,conf in #pastebin
[03:00] <TcoUpLoad> on instalation the anaconda detect grafical card has radeon mobility x700 PCIE but screen =None... so after that point a dont have more X...
[03:00] <mikeo1> ok
[03:00] <SimonYee> firefox in the older version is 1.5.0.3
[03:00] <IndyGunFreak> SimonYee: well, you can download 7.04 from ubuntu.com
[03:00] <stefg> jimmy_: no, taht would try to install gaim :-)
[03:00] <SimonYee> I know
[03:00] <stefg> !meta-package
[03:00] <ubotu> A meta-package is a package that simply depends upon other packages and brings them in. It's not a real package, but a very useful package that can drag in other package versions.
[03:01] <pirox> anyone know if avidemux provides information on the video streams if you were to open a media file in it?

[03:05] <SimonYee> one i found if I want to change resolution
[03:05] <SimonYee> very not simple
[03:05] <IndyGunFreak> SimonYee: ? you do it the same way you do under windows.
[03:05] <gopnik> ubotu hello

[03:05] <gopnik> how are you?
[03:05] <stefg> jimmy_: don't know about pidgin. But common sense says this is likely to happen when running unofficial hack-packages
[03:05] <Pelo> gopnik,  ubotu is a bot
[03:05] <SimonYee> wha tis the simple way to set resolution without running sudo
[03:06] <jimmy_> stefg, poop
[03:06] <gopnik> just a bot??
[03:06] <Pelo> SimonYee,   menu > system > prefs > screen resolution
[03:06] <gopnik> ok

[03:06] <IndyGunFreak> jimmy_: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Pidgin+2+DEB?content=57356     its worked fine for me and everyone i've sent it to.
[03:06] <mikeo1> so how do i get my screen resolution to work at the lcds default?
[03:06] <mikeo1> its a 1680x1050 monitor but only wants to run at 1440x900
[03:06] <mikeo1> yeah simonyee its a pain in the ass for me right now
[03:06] <mikeo1> bought a nice new 22" lcd and cant even run it at native res
[03:07] <jimmy_> IndyGunFreak, ahh thanks ill try it
[03:07] <IndyGunFreak> jimmy_: you may have to uninstall the one you just installed, to be safe.
[03:07] <SimonYee> mines going in at 600*800
[03:07] <SimonYee> lcd monitor later
[03:07] <SimonYee> reinstall mikeo1
[03:07] <mikeo1> lol yeah right
[03:07] <stefg> mikeo1: hav you ever taken into account that a venerable mx440 with shared mem wont support such a reso ?
[03:08] <Pelo> SimonYee,  you might need to manualy add the extra resolutions you need to xorg.conf , after that the will appear in the resolution menu
[03:08] <niriven_> anyone know how to load gconf?
[03:08] <m0`> See, that is the problem with Linux. You mess up one thing, and you can't redo, you have to be a darn expert to fix it. While in windows, they wont let you mess up the same way, there is limits
[03:08] <mikeo1> i thought it could
[03:08] <SimonYee> mine is a build in
[03:08] <niriven_> says its installed, but i dont see it in my menus or know the binary name
[03:08] <SimonYee> display
[03:08] <Pelo> niriven_,   gconf-editor
[03:08] <SimonYee> there are pelo
[03:08] <niriven_> pelo thanks!
[03:08] <IndyGunFreak> m0`: i guess i've never had a problem like tha
[03:09] <SimonYee> but the thing is that other higher resolution is too high
[03:09] <Pelo> SimonYee,  for every colour depts ?
[03:09] <SimonYee> yes
[03:09] <SimonYee> I want it to lock only to 600*800
[03:09] <SimonYee> for the time being
[03:09] <SimonYee> but always jump to the higher range
[03:09] <Pelo> SimonYee,  remove the resolutions that are too high and only leave the ones you can use,  you might have to adjust the  horizsync

[03:11] <antum> I'm doing a downgrade according to: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DowngradeHowto is there any more information on possible issues this could cause?
[03:11] <Chicory> Everyone just raves about how great and simple it is.
[03:11] <Chicory> But so far despite setting up clients and servers, there's just no connection.
[03:11] <tcleval> hey, after upgrade when ubuntu checks the filesystem on startup it gives me erros about ext2 on /dev/hdb1, but that partition is ext3, how can i fix this?
[03:12] <Chicory> The only problem I can think of is the IP adddresses, but I've triple-checked those.
[03:12] <crimsun> antum: you'll need to massage dependencies by hand.
[03:12] <crimsun> antum: packages are not designed to downgrade.
[03:12] <Pelo> tcleval,  ext3 is just ext2 with journaling, I believe fcshk can'T tell the different
[03:12] <Pelo> diferrence
[03:12] <antum> crimsun that sounds scary, maybe I should just do a complete reinstall?
[03:12] <XiXaQ> isn't Opera available in repositories for feisty?
[03:12] <tcleval> pelo, but how about the erros? it says it cant find superblock
[03:12] <jrib> !opera > XiXaQ (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:13] <jrib> XiXaQ: just download the deb
[03:13] <Pelo> XiXaQ,  I think you need to enable the xtra repos

[03:14] <crimsun> russe11: depends which output is being used.
[03:14] <crdlb> russe11: run gstreamer-properties
[03:14] <darksoule> ok so, I got the windows to show up on the grub but I still can't boot it. I can only use Ubuntu. where did I go wrong? http://pastebin.ca/486723
[03:14] <russe11> crimsun, crdlb: Okay, what am I looking for in gstreamer-properties?
[03:15] <crdlb> russe11: set the default audio output plugin to ALSA
[03:15] <Beforewisdom> Where is the equivalent of /etc/env.d/02locale in ubuntu
[03:16] <phixnay> hey guys
[03:16] <BrokenCrystal> hey
[03:16] <Pelo> darksoule,  can you upload a pick of gparted ?
[03:16] <crimsun> Beforewisdom: you haven't told us what /etc/env.d/02locale is/does or its origin.
[03:16] <darksoule> gparted?
[03:16] <russe11> crdlb, when I set to ALSA and click test, it says "ALSA - Advanced Linux Sound Architecture: Could not open resource for writing."
[03:16] <Beforewisdom> Im not sure, I am reading a "howto" meant for gentoo,  it holds locale information
[03:17] <phixnay> I just installed ubuntu on my brother's computer, and wireless didn't work, so I installed ndiswrapper. When I installed the drivers it came with, it said that prism54usb was an alternate driver. how do I get that driver?
[03:17] <crdlb> russe11: do you currently have rhythmbox or totem open?
[03:17] <Pelo> darksoule,  so I can see your partition table ,   menu <system > admin > gnome partition editor ( you might need to install it   sudo apt-get gparted)
[03:17] <russe11> crdlb: no
[03:17] <Pelo> sudo apt-get install gparted
[03:17] <russe11> crdlb: I closed them first.

[03:17] <crdlb> russe11: I don't know then
[03:17] <Pelo> arro, use the install cd
[03:17] <russe11> crdlb: Okay, thanks anyway.

[03:18] <phixnay> also, ndiswrapper made it so network manager works, but it can't connect to the WPA network : (
[03:18] <Pelo> arro,  nvm
[03:18] <IndyGunFreak> arro: what program?
[03:18] <phixnay> has anybody had problems before with ndiswrapper and WPA?

[03:31] <HymnToLife> DBO ?
[03:31] <DBO> just taking care of the bad router folks
[03:31] <HymnToLife> what's with all the bans ?
[03:31] <flyback> chump, that's for william shatner singing and other canadian acts of terrorism!
[03:31] <HymnToLife> oh right
[03:31] <flyback> :P
[03:31] <IndyGunFreak> DBO: oh ok.
[03:31] <zombiepig> it's like one of the processes is freezing but i don't know how to troubleshoot :P
[03:31] <Pelo> darksoule,  change the line in your grub menu   root (hd0,1) for root (hd0,0)
[03:31] <HymnToLife> still that old exploit ?
[03:31] <DBO> yep
[03:31] <zombiepig> anyone able to help me?
[03:31] <pppoe_dude> zombiepig, which process
[03:32] <HymnToLife> you'd think router vendors would have released patches to their closed-source firmware by now :p
[03:32] <phixnay> jrib: we keep getting these
[03:32] <darksoule> not doubting you but I thought (hd0,0) was my ubuntu hard drive
[03:32] <jrib> phixnay: getting what?
[03:32] <IndyGunFreak> arro: did it work
[03:32] <Arix> Hey, i know this may be a noob question, but what would ubuntu be considered? Linux2.6.x; Linux2.4.x; Linux2.2.x; or Unix
[03:32] <zombiepig> pppoe_dude -> that's what i'm not sure of
[03:32] <Pelo> HymnToLife,  some networks have put a filter so it doesn't get displayed
[03:32] <HymnToLife> Arix, Linux 2.6
[03:32] <phixnay> jrib: DCC attacks. cou7ldn't you ban the word dcc or something
[03:32] <chump> arix 2.6
[03:32] <zombiepig> just the wait cursor never goes
[03:32] <Arix> thx
[03:33] <pppoe_dude> zombiepig, need more detail to help you
[03:33] <arro> IndyGunFreak: still working on it
[03:33] <Arix> both of u

[03:33] <Bogaurd> I upgraded my dapper server install to edgy... now mount says that /dev/sda1 is mounted on /, rather than /dev/hda1, and it shows as having no free space... looking in fstab, i see a weird line with a UUID...
[03:33] <ubuntu> hello, Im having an Error, after changing the users and groups around.. will not let me boot into ubuntu...
[03:33] <zombiepig> pppoedude, what would you like? is there a log i can checkout?
[03:33] <IndyGunFreak> arro: but did the driver install, or are you still requiring a connection?
[03:33] <phixnay> DBO ah, I don't really undersatnd how it works
[03:33] <flyback> HymnToLife, forget it
[03:33] <flyback> vxJERKS is more unstable than I am
[03:33] <pppoe_dude> zombiepig, what program do you open that causes this?
[03:33] <Srixon> hello, Im having an Error, after changing the users and groups around.. will not let me boot into ubuntu...
[03:33] <zombiepig> it's when i bootup
[03:33] <flyback> so I doubt any router vendor will fix it if it takes more than 10 seconds
[03:33] <flyback> :P
[03:33] <jplastin> i have a partition with FAT32 i want mounted in ~/thelatter that is read/write and won't require a password
[03:33] <pppoe_dude> zombiepig, is it just the cursor? or is the computer not responding?
[03:34] <arro> IndyGunFreak: still trying to get the driver off of the cd
[03:34] <jplastin> and mounts every time i boot up
[03:34] <jplastin> what's the best way of doing this/
[03:34] <IndyGunFreak> oh ok.
[03:34] <zombiepig> nope, just the cursor. everything else works fine and has the normal arrow cursor. but if i minimize back to the desktop, the wait cursor returns
[03:34] <Pelo> jplastin,  check in man fstab to learn how to set permision , and man mount to
[03:34] <jplastin> I tried putting this in my /etc/fstab:
[03:34] <tim__> Trouble setting up a new External Hard Drive
[03:34] <darksoule> ok, bye, for now...

[03:34] <zombiepig> so it's not a huge deal, just annoying :P
[03:34] <Srixon> hello, Im having an Error, after changing the users and groups around.. will not let me boot into ubuntu... Can anyone help me with this?
[03:35] <jplastin> That didn't work because it wouldn't give me write access
[03:35] <pppoe_dude> zombiepig, never had this kind of issue before
[03:35] <bmt8> does anyone know if future versions of ubuntu will include any default disk mounting GUI tools to avoid having to manually edit fstab? its not a problem for me, but i want to recommend the OS to beginners and explaining fstab to them is like another language

[03:36] <zombiepig> ppoe_dude - do you mean in sessions?
[03:36] <Srixon> How Do i do that?

[03:37] <mister_roboto> Srixon: from the grub menu. and dont do that any more unless u know what ur doing
[03:37] <pppoe_dude> Srixon, also, do you get an error message?
[03:37] <Pelo> tim__,  you probably have to mount it manualy and then if that works add it to fstab  ,  check the manpage for mount
[03:37] <Srixon> Ok what would it be.. /usr/srixon
[03:38] <Srixon> yes i get an error messege something like ./var  but i cannot remember i will check again and if this doesnt fix it i will write it down.
[03:38] <mister_roboto> Srixon: undo whatever u changed
[03:38] <tim__> Okay how would i do that I admit im New to Ubuntu
[03:38] <Srixon> I changed the directory for the user files.
[03:38] <Beforewisdom> what file does Ubuntu 6.10 store the environmental variables in?
[03:38] <pppoe_dude> Srixon, what exatly did you change?
[03:38] <zombiepig> pppoe_dude, actually - maybe i did at about that time the problem started. a driver for a sd card reader... i'll try removing that and see if the problem goes away

[03:49] <phixnay> I'm on windows right now - could some one do me a favor and check what version of wpa supplicant ubuntu ships with?
[03:49] <Pelo> tim__,  usb external hdd should mount automaticaly, is it formated ?
[03:49] <tim__> Pelo I just got it so probably not
[03:49] <Emilio_M> well, when somebody can help me, send me a PM
[03:50] <majd> Hey, is there a way to mount a windows vista file system in the ubuntu edgy eft live cd?
[03:50] <Pelo> tim__,  ok check in system > admin to see if you have gparted installed ( gnome partition editor) , if not  sudo apt-get install gparted ,   in gparted, select the proper hdd from the drop down list and make a pertition on it and format it
[03:51] <fyochief> But that would give the same bad result in Ooo, etc & it doen't.  "t" works fined there
[03:51] <Pelo> bruenig,  am I usualy short with helpees ?
[03:51] <tim__> Pelo Which Format would be able to be seen by windows and Ubuntu
[03:51] <Pelo> majd, try installing nfts-3g but I it it needs a reboot you wonT' be able to keep it
[03:51] <bruenig> Pelo, no but it is fun to watch others get overwhelmed by certain types of people as well
[03:51] <Pelo> tim__,  vfat ( ie fat32)
[03:51] <gikid> JENDA
[03:52] <majd> Pelo, does ubuntu mount it automatically when you install ubuntu?
[03:52] <fyochief> mister_roboto,_ But that would give the same bad result in Ooo, etc & it doen't.  "t" works fined there
[03:52] <tim__> Pelo It dosnt have that option
[03:52] <bruenig> ubuntu feisty mounts everything you got when you install
[03:52] <mister_roboto> fyochief: not necessarily true. a <ctrl>-t could do very different things in diff programs
[03:52] <Pelo> majd,  feisty should mount your nfts partition automaticaly but only in read mode
[03:52] <mister_roboto> fyochief: or <alt>-t, whatever
[03:52] <majd> Pelo, i just need to back them up
[03:52] <mister_roboto> fyochief: try banging on your alt and ctl keys
[03:53] <Pelo> tim__,  in the terminal   sudo apt-get install  gparted
[03:53] <Takumi> ok.. rebooted with the updated fstab entries, seems a bit better
[03:53] <Pelo> majd,  you 'll be fine to copy from
[03:53] <Pelo> tim__,  or do you mean you donT' have the fat32 option ?
[03:53] <Bogaurd> now my / is showing up as having no free disk space.... grrr
[03:53] <majd> Pelo, one last question, does it work in edgy?
[03:54] <tim__> Pelo No fat 32 Opt. and when i try formating it gives me this error
[03:54] <Pelo> majd,  in edgy I don'T think so I think you will have to install nfts support for read at least
[03:54] <Pelo> !ntfs | majd
[03:54] <ubotu> majd: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse

[03:56] <JammasterJay> What does this mean? "A later version is available in a software channel" - i got the latest version direct from the company's site
[03:56] <mister_roboto> Bogaurd: try running "sudo apt-get autoremove"
[03:56] <nj786> lol
[03:56] <majd> is there a way to install ubuntu such that it uses free space and doesn't ruin the integrity of my windows only partition?
[03:56] <bruenig> moDumass, what?
[03:56] <nj786> im new
[03:57] <bruenig> !kde | nj786
[03:57] <ubotu> nj786: KDE (http://kde.org) is the !desktop environment used natively in !Kubuntu.

[03:57] <Bogaurd> mister_roboto: done... nothing removed. my drive isnt full though!
[03:57] <wxq2378> Bogaurd, maybe your apt cache is full of downloaded debs  try sudo apt-get clean
[03:57] <nj786> ok
[03:57] <nj786> what do i do
[03:57] <nj786> when i installed it
[03:57] <mister_roboto> Bogaurd: well your root filesystem is
[03:57] <maikol> the ubuntu provided cups is no good. subversion 1.3 worked for me.  maybe its time to update the package
[03:57] <nj786> brueneg?
[03:58] <bruenig> nj786, don't install kde menu if you don't have kde
[03:58] <bruenig> nj786, go to those links to learn more about kde
[03:58] <nj786> i just installed it
[03:58] <mister_roboto> Bogaurd: you could try booting the live gtparted cdrom and resize the partition where you mounted "/"
[03:58] <bruenig> nj786, why?
[03:58] <bruenig> I am fresh though
[03:58] <zerokill88> im having a error while trying to copy a dvd. i get this....the selected location does not have enough free space to store the disc image (95 MiB needed).what can i do to fix this?
[03:58] <nj786> can i uninstall it
[03:58] <nj786> all i did was type it in to terminal
[03:58] <nj786> is there a way ot get rid of it
[03:58] <nj786> im sorry bruenig
[03:59] <Bogaurd> ok mister_roboto: i did apt-get clean, now it's showing as 99% used :S
[03:59] <bruenig> nj786, what was the command you typed
[03:59] <Pelo> zerokill88,  copy less stuff or get an empty dvd
[03:59] <nj786>  sudo apt-get install
[03:59] <bruenig> nj786, install what
[03:59] <nj786> i am just trying to install this icon theme
[03:59] <majd> vox754, is there a way to browse the files on my windows partition from the live cd?
[03:59] <Bogaurd> which doesnt make sense as it  only had about 30% used before i upgraded from dapper -> edgy -> feisty
[03:59] <nj786> i donwloaded
[03:59] <nj786> but i do not know how
[03:59] <bruenig> nj786, is the icon theme kde?
[03:59] <nj786> no idea
[03:59] <budluva> nj786, goto your desktop
[03:59] <tim__> PELO it just says error while trying to label disk
[03:59] <bruenig> nj786, link to the icon theme
[04:00] <nj786> hold on
[04:00] <nj786> ill giv u the link
[04:00] <Pelo> tim__,  ic
[04:00] <budluva> nj786, if you downloaded it from the net, its probably in /home/nj786/Desktop
[04:00] <vox754> majd, yes there is, you mount the partition and you can view, browse, open, play, but not modify, ask Pelo or bruenig, they'll help you
[04:00] <nj786> yes
[04:00] <nj786> it is
[04:00] <nj786> what do i do
[04:00] <nj786> to install it
[04:00] <budluva> nj786, well open system/preferences/theme
[04:00] <vox754> !enter | nj786 I know you are a nub but,

[04:00] <jscinoz> Hey everyone, i recently uninstalled the proprietry Nvidia driver and wish to reinstall it, unfortunately there seem to be some remanent files preventing it from working properly is there a way to remove all of these?
[04:01] <Pelo> tim__, did the hdd come with a cd ?
[04:01] <mister_roboto> Bogaurd: if you don't have "/var" on a separate partition, you might look in there to see if you have some giant logs to clean up too. it's kind of a pain to track down stuff to remove. if your disk has a lot of space, you might try resizing partitions.
[04:01] <nj786> i appologize.
[04:01] <bruenig> nj786, link to the theme, this isn't windows, there isn't a "way" to install it necessarily. There could be a variety of ways depending on what it actually is.
[04:01] <budluva> nj786, then edit your current theme, goto the icon tab, and drag the icon package you downloaded into that window
[04:01] <tim__> No
[04:01] <tim__> wish it did
[04:01] <Pelo> jscinoz,  sudo apt-get purge  package name
[04:01] <nj786> do i click customize?
[04:01] <jscinoz> alrready done that
[04:01] <RagingBull> Hello
[04:01] <budluva> nj786, yes
[04:01] <Pelo> tim__, ok ...   let me think a few minutes
[04:02] <budluva> nj786, then goto the icon tab
[04:02] <nj786> ok and then
[04:02] <budluva> nj786, then in that window it opened up, drag the icon package you downloaded into that window
[04:02] <jscinoz> pelo, basically when i try reinstall the driver it installs fine but X fails to start with "Cannot find NVIDIA"
[04:02] <nj786> ok
[04:02] <vox754> !prefix | nj786
[04:02] <ubotu> nj786: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[04:02] <budluva> nj786, then you should be able to pick it from the list
[04:02] <zerokill88> pelo but i have 160 gig hd
[04:02] <moDumass> what does unexpected token mean?
[04:03] <Pelo> jscinoz,   in xorg.conf  change nvidia for nv
[04:03] <vox754> !tab | nj786 zerokill88
[04:03] <ubotu> nj786 zerokill88: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[04:03] <nj786> budluva, i dragged the folder into it but it rejects it
[04:03] <jscinoz> i have
[04:03] <RagingBull> This is what I want I want you to do exactly as I say in this is why
[04:03] <RagingBull> eer
[04:03] <budluva> nj786, ok whats the link to the icon you downloaded?
[04:03] <RagingBull> M-ERiMiEs-t
[04:03] <mister_roboto> moDumass: some kind of syntax error
[04:03] <RagingBull> mt
[04:03] <mon^rch> doom 3 and quake 4 on linux... yay me :D
[04:03] <yarddog> remhilight nick
[04:03] <jscinoz> pelo, i needed to change nvidia back to nv to get into X,
[04:03] <budluva> nj786, i was hoping the icon package was in a tarball
[04:03] <Pelo> zerokill88,  did you say you were copying "TO" a dvd ? or from a dvd
[04:03] <jscinoz> pelo, my problem is getting the nvidia driver to install and set up correctly
[04:03] <tim__> pelo okay
[04:04] <Pelo> jscinoz, I'm not an expert on nvidia , check the forum
[04:04] <zerokill88> pelo im copying from a dvd
[04:04] <nj786> KDE_cRYSTAL_DIAMOND_2.6_CLASSICAL_MOD
[04:04] <budluva> nj786, theme's that are in the .tar.gz format you can drag into the theme windows to install
[04:04] <Pelo> zerokill88, maybe you donT' have room on that particular partitons,  try copying a few files at a time
[04:04] <jscinoz> already have checked the fourm, i need some help from someone here who can go over it with me
[04:04] <bruenig> nj786, that is for kde, you are using gnome
[04:04] <bruenig> nj786, stay away from stuff that says kde or is shiny and blue
[04:04] <nj786> oh ok
[04:05] <Pelo> jscinoz,  try asking again in half an hour
[04:05] <budluva> nj786, so paste the link to the icon here
[04:05] <nj786> wait bruenig
[04:05] <mister_roboto> bruenig: hey, kde rocks :)
[04:05] <jscinoz> alright.
[04:05] <nj786> i have this other 1
[04:05] <nj786> in tar.gz_files
[04:05] <budluva> nj786, i take it your in gnome? and not kde right?
[04:05] <zerokill88> Pelo,well i formated the whole partition for linux.so i should have the whole 160 g.and its an iso file
[04:05] <nj786> i am in gnome
[04:05] <nj786> yes
[04:06] <budluva> nj786, ok, and your downloading all these icon's and themes from gnome-look.org?
[04:06] <lancer> How long before Ubuntu upgrades to the recently released blender 2.44 ? I had to do an entire distro upgrade of Fiesty just to get blender 2.43 working and on dial up that took me about 3 days.
[04:06] <nj786> budluva i have this other icon it is in tar.gz_files
[04:06] <nj786> yes
[04:06] <budluva> nj786, ok try dragging that into the icon window to install it
[04:06] <nj786> 1 sec
[04:06] <budluva> nj786, if done correctly you should be able to select the icon theme from the window
[04:06] <nj786> budluva so no KD icons will work
[04:06] <nj786> on gnome?
[04:07] <budluva> no
[04:07] <Pelo> tim__,   ok this is what I have to suggest , I had some problems myself formating a usb drive earlier today,  I ended up booting the live cd to use gparted on that to install a disklabel, try that, it might help, once the hdd is partitioned you should be able to format it with not problem and it should mount autiomatical
[04:07] <mister_roboto> lancer: you could always d/l the source and compile it yourself to stay current. you won't have the package management though, if you care
[04:07] <lancer> mister_roboto, I would do that , but not sure of deps / steps etc
[04:07] <bruenig> budluva, did you not see what the name of the file was, he pasted it, it was "OBVIOUS KDE THEME NAME" or something like that
[04:07] <tim__>  okay thanks
[04:07] <budluva> nj786, there is another way to install themes, instead of dragging them into the window, you can just click INSTALL and point it to the file you downloaded
[04:07] <budluva> bruenig, oh
[04:07] <Pelo> zerokill88, check in gparted to make sure the partiton is ok and that there is space available , that is all I can suggest
[04:08] <budluva> bruenig, no i missed that :P
[04:08] <jplastin> Azureus won't start anymore for some reason: /usr/bin/azureus: line 36: exec: java: not found
[04:08] <Bogaurd> mister_roboto: looks like i found the cause of the problems :) when i upgraded, all the drive names got messed up, so the correct partitions were not mounted, which means a big backup was done to the wrong location, taking a lot of disk space :)
[04:08] <nj786> ok  thank you budluva
[04:08] <budluva> nj786, you should start downloading themes at www.gnome-look.org
[04:08] <mister_roboto> lancer: yes, it can be a bit of a pain for large programs that have a lot of deps. i don't know much at all about blender
[04:08] <jplastin> I have sun-java5-bin and sun-java5-jre installed though
[04:08] <nj786> ok
[04:08] <nj786> thank you budluva
[04:08] <budluva> nj786, stay away from kde-look.org
[04:08] <Pelo> later
[04:08] <budluva> :P
[04:08] <nj786> thank you budluva
[04:08] <mister_roboto> Bogaurd: good job!  :)
[04:08] <zerokill88> pelo ok
[04:08] <jplastin> i also had sun-java6-jre and sun-java6-bin installed before
[04:08] <moDumass> it was indeedy, now is there some way to foolproof this, somehow set my install dir to never be more than 80% full without throwing its toys and making me move stuff?
[04:08] <Bogaurd> is there anyway to have a symbolic link at /dev/hda to point to what is now called /dev/sda?
[04:09] <mister_roboto> Bogaurd: i had a feisty upgrade hose me too by changing my drive device names and they didn't all mount. easy to fix but...
[04:09] <budluva> Bogaurd, did you try gparted?
[04:09] <bruenig> Bogaurd, you don't like the new name?
[04:09] <skt> does anyone here run WoW and have poor performance? I'm using feisty and cedega and get around 20-30 fps when windows gets 50+. I've adjusted nvidia-settings as well as cedga and in-game settings to the absolutele highest performance possible and still nothing
[04:09] <Bogaurd> mister_roboto: why does it happen, do you know? my desktop is feisty, but that still shows up as /dev/hda
[04:09] <lancer> mister_roboto, the trouble with blender and ubuntu is that a certian renderer plugin that blender uses (yafray) is compiled with older clibs - result is a crash if you use the "live" render feature (see it rendering - useful to know if worth the wait)... only solution is to wait a proper compiled for ubuntu version but upgrades to repos can be very very behind the times.
[04:10] <mistone> how do I mount a fat32 harddrive at boot?
[04:10] <Bogaurd> bruenig: well, what was wrong with /dev/hdx? :P
[04:10] <bruenig> mistone, add it to the fstab
[04:10] <mistone>  I know that
[04:10] <mistone> wahts the syntax
[04:10] <nautivus2> una
[04:10] <bruenig> !fat32
[04:10] <Bogaurd> budluva: what do you mean?
[04:10] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[04:10] <cashvalentine^^> Which is the better dual core processor for Ubuntu, AMD or Intel Duo 2?
[04:10] <mister_roboto> Bogaurd: the maintainers decided to go to a new naming scheme for the drives but i haven't been following the news and am not sure of the reason.
[04:11] <budluva> Bogaurd, well your drive names all got renamed to sdx right?
[04:11] <Bogaurd> budluva: yeah, they did
[04:11] <ixian_> is there a good alternative to gdesklets? i find most of the widgets in gdeskets to be rather ugly
[04:11] <bruenig> Bogaurd, is there some sort of problem with the new name or you just want it changed back
[04:11] <sgtmattbaker> anybody here play any x360?
[04:11] <budluva> Bogaurd, well just wondering maybe gparted can fix the names
[04:11] <theRealballchalk> haha
[04:11] <Bogaurd> bruenig: it's just that it broke stuff, and I've gotta work out where to fix everything :)
[04:11] <bruenig> ixian_, depending on what you are looking for, conky is good, it is generally just a system monitor though
[04:12] <bruenig> Bogaurd, what did it break, scripts or what?
[04:12] <theRealballchalk> richard stallman looks like a messiah preaching
[04:12] <theRealballchalk> http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2007/05/28/100033867/
[04:12] <cashvalentine^^> Anybody have recommendations for which is the better dual core processor for Ubuntu, AMD or Intel Duo 2?
[04:12] <Chicory> Yep.
[04:12] <mister_roboto> lancer: i guess you'd have to upgrade that plugin too in the same way if you really needed new blender and didn't want to wait. do you have the backports repo enabled? you can get newer stuff that way
[04:12] <Chicory> He tends to do that.
[04:12] <ixian_> bruenig, im mostly looking for that kind of thing.. system stats..
[04:12] <Bogaurd> bruenig: scripts, fstab etc
[04:12] <rai7> Linux nub here: I just want to know if Ubuntu uses the swap file if there is still physical memory free? I have 2 gigs and am wondering if running programs needing lots of mem will make my hard disk thrash?
[04:12] <bruenig> Bogaurd, well fstab will be easy to fix, you can use sed to fix all the scripts at once and fstab for that matter
[04:12] <nj786> budluva do i download the PNG or the SVG?
[04:12] <bruenig> !info conky | ixian_
[04:12] <ubotu> ixian_: conky: highly configurable system monitor for X based on torsmo. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.4.5-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 123 kB, installed size 416 kB
[04:13] <nj786> budluva the theme
[04:13] <Dragnslcr> Anybody know offhand what command is run and/or file is altered when you set the time for monitor power saving?
[04:13] <MTecknology> is everybody offline?
[04:13] <budluva> nj786, png and svg are both graphic formats, like jpg or gif
[04:13] <nj786> budluva, so it really doesnt matter?
[04:13] <bruenig> svg is better
[04:13] <nj786> ok
[04:13] <bruenig> for themes
[04:13] <budluva> nj786, lol what your trying to download is just a screenshot, not the actual themes
[04:13] <cashvalentine^^> What forum has people who can answer the following: "Which is the better dual core processor for Ubuntu, AMD or Intel Duo 2?"
[04:14] <nj786> oh
[04:14] <theRealballchalk> rai7 how much ram u got?
[04:14] <budluva> nj786, your just downloading a picture of the theme
[04:14] <bruenig> cashvalentine^^, I don't think it much matters
[04:14] <nj786> well
[04:14] <nj786> where can i download the real icons?
[04:14] <nj786> llol
[04:14] <rai7> theRealballchalk: I have 2 gigs
[04:14] <budluva> nj786, the download from gnome-look.org should be in .tar.gz
[04:14] <budluva> nj786, they should be on the same page where your seeing the picture
[04:14] <cashvalentine^^> bruenig: with duo2, do you use the amd64 version of ubuntu?
[04:14] <Och4>  /j #cedega
[04:14] <nj786> yess what i am download is in that tar.gz format
[04:14] <budluva> ok
[04:14] <budluva> there you go
[04:15] <theRealballchalk> rai7 i'd allocate 2 gigs for swap since you have 2 gigs of physmem
[04:15] <nj786> ok now what do i do
[04:15] <bruenig> cashvalentine^^, those are all reverse compatible to i386 so it doesn't matter
[04:15] <budluva> it should download to /home/YOURUSERNAME/Desktop
[04:15] <nj786> do i extract the downloaded folder?
[04:15] <nj786> budluva?
[04:15] <budluva> no
[04:15] <theRealballchalk> rai7 don't quote me but double check around because i'm not on linux
[04:15] <budluva> nj786, go back to the theme manager
[04:15] <budluva> nj786, System/Preferences/Theme
[04:15] <nj786> ok
[04:15] <mister_roboto> bruenig: amd64 compile doesn't include any amd-specific optimizations?
[04:15] <budluva> nj786, custozime your current theme
[04:15] <nj786> and then budluva?
[04:15] <bruenig> rai7, swap is such a waste, my swap is at 2.4 MB of usage right now, I wouldn't wast much disk space on that
[04:16] <nj786> ok and then budluva?
[04:16] <budluva> nj786, now did you download icons again? or wallpaper, or window borders or what?
[04:16] <nj786> just icon theme
[04:16] <theRealballchalk> bruenig: true that
[04:16] <bruenig> mister_roboto, the amd64 version does yes, you also lose stuff like flash
[04:16] <mister_roboto> bruenig: he was asking about using amd64 on an intel chip. not a wise move
[04:17] <rai7> 2.4 mb!!!!? mine is 89 megs, though I dont hear the disk moving. when I do free -m I get 1537 used 89 megs in swap. Is that strange?
[04:17] <budluva> nj786, ok, goto the icon tab again, click install, and navigate to where you downloaded the .tar.gz and click on it, then click OK
[04:17] <nj786> i got it
[04:17] <bruenig> mister_roboto, oh I thought he was talking about the AMD chip
[04:17] <Pete_> does anyone know how I can fix a problem with gnome-sessions-properties from the command line?  I made a change to the gnome-sessions-properties and now gnome will not start...
[04:17] <budluva> nj786, now can you see it in the list?
[04:17] <nj786> thank you indearly soo much budluva
[04:17] <mister_roboto> bruenig: core duo
[04:17] <theRealballchalk> i use onlly 7% of my swap
[04:17] <budluva> nj786, no problem
[04:17] <nj786> yes budluva, thank you
[04:17] <budluva> nj786, good luck and have fun

[04:19] <JammasterJay> Has anyone successfully installed Skype?
[04:19] <Pete_> anyone know how to fix gnome-sessions-properties?
[04:19] <Pelo> Pete_,  what's the problem ?
[04:19] <Baelrun> Anyone have any luck with the Dell TrueMobil 1400?  Fiesty recognizes it, it's shown in iwconfig, yet it is flagged as disabled in lshw
[04:20] <Pete_> i made a change to the gnome-sessions-properties, and now gnome will not load.
[04:20] <Pelo> Pete_, lovely
[04:20] <Pete_> is there a text file I can change back in a terminal session?
[04:20] <Pelo> Pete_, did you delete someting or add something ?
[04:20] <|jplastin|> please someone check the output of startin azureus on the command line;
[04:20] <|jplastin|> http://pastebin.ca/486814
[04:20] <Pete_> both
[04:20] <|jplastin|> It
[04:20] <|jplastin|> 's a java issue
[04:20] <|jplastin|> i have both java5 and java6 installed
[04:21] <|jplastin|> And i'm pretty sure Azureus is trying to use java6
[04:21] <bruenig> |jplastin|, azureus is crap
[04:21] <|jplastin|> because when java6 is uninstalled
[04:21] <sudobash> hey does anyone know how send another xterm from tty1 to the failself enviornment that is supposed to be at tty7?
[04:21] <Pelo> Pete_,  you can remove stuff in  ~/.config/automount  but for adding stuff I donT' know

[04:21] <charles> i
[04:21] <Bogaurd>  when I do an fdisk -l, I notice that one of my partitions, which is part of an LVM array, is listed as having partition type 83 (Linux) whereas all the reast are listed as 8e (Linux LVM). Is this going to pose a problem down the track? Is it safe to modify this using fdisk?
[04:21] <bruenig> |jplastin|, what doesn't help is scrolling up to the read the beginning of your sentence
[04:21] <charles> my external isn't working still
[04:21] <MrNOKIA> hello everyone
[04:21] <Chicory> <3
[04:22] <charles> i ran cat /etc/fstab
[04:22] <sudobash> you have it on usb?
[04:22] <mister_roboto> |jplastin|: yes, it's java 6 and the vm is crashing :\    try "sudo update-java-alternatives" and set it to java 5 if you want to try the other jvm
[04:22] <charles> yeah
[04:22] <levander> Is there any way to encode to the WMA format from WAV on Ubuntu?
[04:22] <sudobash> whats the device path?
[04:22] <|jplastin|> bruenig: cranky spanky

[04:23] <MrNOKIA> here's what i posted by mistake in #ubuntu-kernel
[04:23] <MrNOKIA> [05:10]  <MrNOKIA> hello again :)
[04:23] <MrNOKIA> [05:14]  <MrNOKIA> i'm a little bit puzzled: could anynone please explain the "your processor does not support long mode, use a 32bit version" error ? i got it twice, once on gentoo 2007 and also on feisty fawn, when trying to boot a dell inspiron 6400 centrino dual core box
[04:23] <MrNOKIA> [05:16]  <MrNOKIA> what is more strange, is that on a dell inspiron 6400 intel dual core 2 the error doesn;t appear
[04:23] <MrNOKIA> [05:17]  <MrNOKIA> both distros, however, are puzzled by the ATi x1400 vga, which is very strange, at least from ubuntu point of view: both dapper and edgy detected it flawlessly
[04:23] <MrNOKIA> [05:17]  <MrNOKIA> but not feisty...

[04:23] <Airforce5555> the terminal is awesome!!!!!
[04:23] <|jplastin|> You already said that.
[04:23] <jrib> bruenig: ?
[04:23] <charles> uhmm... what is a device path...
[04:23] <sudobash> try checking /dev/sda1
[04:23] <bruenig> I thought MrNOKIA was going to keep going
[04:23] <charles> hehe
[04:23] <rollerskatejamms> Hobbsee, Huh?
[04:23] <charles> oo
[04:23] <rollerskatejamms> Hobbsee, Why'd you do that

[04:24] <MrNOKIA> ok
[04:24] <sudobash> your on ubuntu right? which ver?
[04:24] <Pete_> pelo, that got me back in! thanks alot!!!
[04:24] <rollerskatejamms> MrNOKIA, are you trying to use 64 bit ubuntu on a Core Duo?
[04:24] <Airforce5555> the default is black backround
[04:24] <MrNOKIA> yes
[04:24] <MrNOKIA> centrino duo
[04:24] <rollerskatejamms> MrNOKIA, Only Core 2 Duos have 64 bit.
[04:24] <Airforce5555> let me take another look at it
[04:24] <|jplastin|> http://pastebin.ca/486814  If anyone can help with this java error i'm getting running Azureus... I have both java5 and java6 jre and bin installed.
[04:24] <norton_escafe> MrNOKIA: will not work
[04:24] <sudobash> try this charles.... mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[04:24] <charles> it's hda5
[04:24] <Pelo> Pete_,  you're welcome
[04:25] <sudobash> but make the media folder first
[04:25] <rollerskatejamms> MrNOKIA, The old Cores arent 64 bit, only Core 2's are
[04:25] <sudobash> like mkdir /media/sda1
[04:25] <mister_roboto> |jplastin|: yes, it's java 6 and the vm is crashing :\    try "sudo update-java-alternatives" and set it to java 5 if you want to try the other jvm
[04:25] <MrNOKIA> thanks
[04:25] <Airforce5555> black backround, white text, green border. it owns
[04:25] <norton_escafe> MrNOKIA: gotta have a Core 2 Duo for 64 bit goodness.
[04:25] <rollerskatejamms> Sorry MrNOKIA :-(
[04:25] <MrNOKIA> didn't knew that
[04:25] <Airforce5555> omg
[04:25] <Airforce5555> does that happen a lot?
[04:25] <DBO> dont worry, just a minor glitch Airforce5555
[04:25] <sudobash> charles> mkdir /media/sda1
[04:25] <crdlb> that was a sad little netsplit
[04:25] <Baelrun> Anyone have any luck with the Dell TrueMobil 1400?  Fiesty recognizes it, it's shown in iwconfig, yet it is flagged as disabled in lshw.  Laptop is a Inspiron XPS Gen 1
[04:25] <sudobash> that first
[04:25] <sudobash> then
[04:25] <norton_escafe> yay netplits
[04:26] <sudobash> mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[04:26] <Pelo> Baelrun,  check the forum <
[04:26] <Amaranth> Baelrun: you have to install the firmware
[04:26] <sudobash> if it doesnt say anything it worked... if not it will say unable to mount file
[04:26] <Amaranth> Baelrun: since broadcom won't give us permission to redistribute it
[04:26] <Amaranth> !broadcom
[04:26] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:26] <charles> i think it is hda5
[04:26] <charles> is it okay if i still use sda1
[04:26] <DBO> crdlb, actually if you notice, they are all freenode staff =P
[04:26] <|jplastin|> mister_roboto: so what arguement does that command take?
[04:26] <sudobash> try it
[04:27] <|jplastin|> mister_roboto: sudo update-java-alternatives java5 ?
[04:27] <crdlb> DBO: I just did :)
[04:27] <levander> I've somehow lost that thing where when you mouse over a window, it brings that window to the forefront and assigns the focus to it.  Anybody know how to re-enable it?
[04:27] <sudobash> mkdir /media/sda1
[04:27] <sudobash> do that as root
[04:27] <sudobash> or sudo mkdir /media/sda1
[04:27] <Amaranth> DBO: the super s3krit staff server split
[04:27] <mister_roboto> |jplastin|: if you just run the command itself, it shows a very helpful usage screen
[04:27] <mister_roboto> |jplastin|: give it a try
[04:27] <|jplastin|> sudo update-java-alternatives -s java-1.5.0-sun
[04:27] <norton_escafe> Amaranth: heh
[04:27] <jrib> levander: system > preferences > windows
[04:28] <DBO> Amaranth, thanks =P  kinda guessed that one, I was just pointing out a fun fact
[04:28] <Pelo> levander, are you using desktop effects ?  ask in #ubuntu-effects  if not  try in system > prets > mouse
[04:28] <charles> charles@Victor:~$ mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[04:28] <charles> mount: only root can do that
[04:28] <|jplastin|> mister_roboto: It still crashes using java5 =[
[04:28] <sudobash> sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[04:28] <brett^`> charles: use sudo
[04:28] <mister_roboto> |jplastin|: might try reading that file created by the jvm to see why it's crashing. should be a stack trace in there (if you care to start digging that deep :)
[04:28] <charles> sudo make me a sandwich! lol
[04:28] <|jplastin|> mister_roboto:gcj works though
[04:29] <sudobash> sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[04:29] <a5benwillis>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY PASSWORD
[04:29] <|jplastin|> mister_roboto: any downsides to using Azureus with gcj/
[04:29] <norton_escafe> charles: that shirt rocks
[04:29] <|jplastin|> ?
[04:29] <sudobash> lol
[04:29] <ChiefFYO> Notice that I just typed a "t".  I can type a lower case "t" in any program with a GUI. I can not type a "t" in a terminal widow  (Dapper, GNOME Terminal 2.14.2).  When I type a "t" in a command line in a shell, I get the last thing I had saved with C-v. BTW,  cap "T" behaves properly in shell command lines and in GUI's of applications.  Any thoughts? thanks.
[04:29] <mister_roboto> |jplastin|: hmmm, that's interesting.  i don't know the answer. i use neither azureus nor gcj  :)
[04:29] <mister_roboto> |jplat
[04:29] <mister_roboto> jpla
[04:29] <mister_roboto> sorry...
[04:29] <charles> it says it's already mounted
[04:29] <sudobash> azureus is awsome in linux
[04:30] <mister_roboto> |jplastin|: if it runs and works with gcj, just use that
[04:30] <crdlb> ChiefFYO: gnome-terminal has customizable keybindings
[04:30] <charles> i mean
[04:30] <norton_escafe> ChiefFYO: weird.  Have you tried that from a console window?
[04:30] <JammasterJay> Voip: Skype, Wendo, Gaim...i can't get any of them to work, is there another option?
[04:30] <norton_escafe> s/window/tty
[04:30] <charles> i'll inmountit first and do it again
[04:30] <jscinoz> Hey has anyone been able to install wine from the ubuntu repo with ALSA support? the guys in #winehq said that its ubuntu's problem not Wine's
[04:31] <sudobash> what did it say charles?
[04:31] <ChiefFYO> crdb:  Looked for them but only found information for rebinding the Window keys.  Do you know how?
[04:31] <sudobash> or did it not say anything?
[04:31] <charles> it mounted just fine now
[04:31] <sudobash> cool
[04:31] <charles> but i don't know how to get it to show up now
[04:31] <sudobash> you can check the mount by just using the command like $ mount
[04:31] <charles> $ mount
[04:31] <charles> shit
[04:31] <sudobash> just mount
[04:31] <charles> haha
[04:32] <Pelo> jscinoz, try looking in the forum for an answer
[04:32] <sudobash> $ means prompt
[04:32] <charles> i mean that was bad language, i apologize
[04:32] <jscinoz> alright
[04:33] <sudobash> so does anyone know how ubuntu deals with the X windows as tty? like im trying to send an open xterm to the desktop
[04:33] <sudobash> w calls the tty :0 for tty7?
[04:33] <sudobash> should be something like xterm > tty7
[04:34] <sudobash> guess i should go to the linux channel
[04:35] <phixnay> how do I blacklist stuff in modprobe?
[04:35] <Pelo> sudobash, we're not ignoring you we just dont' know
[04:35] <lineman60> phixany one sec
[04:35] <Pelo> phixnay,   man modprobe
[04:36] <|-David-|> *--[Amsg]  I'm so bored, anyone have anything that might entertain me? [gmsA] --*

[04:36] <wastrel> sudobash:  export DISPLAY=:0.0; xterm
[04:36] <mister_roboto> phixnay: or man modprobe.conf  :)
[04:36] <phixnay> no mention of blacklisting
[04:36] <phixnay> oa
[04:36] <Wayne_> Would somebody be so kind to link me to the newest version of ubuntu for MAC???
[04:37] <mister_roboto> phixnay: don't ignore those "see also"'s in man :)
[04:37] <wastrel> sudobash:  jump into X and figure out what your $DISPLAY is set to (echo $DISPLAY)
[04:37] <lineman60> http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=112273
[04:37] <Pelo> phixnay,  there is an option with modprobe to remove  that could be usefull
[04:37] <ChiefFYO> sudobash: From the F2 computer is something like "startx 0:1 ???" I you want to do what I think.  I used to do this all the time before we had Virtual desdtops & have forgetton the full details
[04:37] <Bogaurd>  when I do an fdisk -l, I notice that one of my partitions, which is part of an LVM array, is listed as having partition type 83 (Linux) whereas all the reast are listed as 8e (Linux LVM). Is this going to pose a problem down the track? Is it safe to modify this using fdisk?
[04:37] <Pelo> !torrents > Wayne_   check pm
[04:37] <wastrel> !blacklist | phixnay
[04:37] <ubotu> phixnay: To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[04:38] <Wayne_> pelo ... any other way besides torrents?
[04:38] <phixnay> Pelo mister_roboto wastrel: thanks for the useful info guys! I'm trying to get my wireless adapter to work, and blacklisting some drivers seems to be the way to go
[04:38] <Pelo> !downloads > Wayne_
[04:39] <HiddenHax> BONANZA!
[04:39] <Wayne_> Pelo: No new PM for !downloads and http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/7.04/release/ does not have a MAC version.

[04:40] <wastrel> Wayne_:  i don't think feisty has a ppc version
[04:40] <Wayne_> http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/6.10/release/ does though ; they don't have a 7.1 for MAC yet?

[04:40] <ulti2001> I am having a problem with ubuntu, I can't seem to get the active window to appear above all the other windows
[04:40] <wastrel> phixnay:  yes, unless you're able to rmmod the offending modules from the running kernel
[04:41] <ulti2001> like when i click open the file open box appears behind everything
[04:41] <ulti2001> i am using beryl
[04:41] <ulti2001> so is there something it changed
[04:41] <nelson_> E a galera!!!
[04:41] <dragonmc> hey guys, anyone able to recommend a good archiver that supports .rar and possibly .ace files?
[04:41] <ChiefFYO> /Leaving
[04:42] <nelson_> Algum do Brasil por aqui?
[04:42] <Pelo> !pr
[04:42] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pr - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:42] <Pelo> !br
[04:42] <ubotu> Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[04:43] <Wayne_> While im here ... The new iMac's (with the intel's) ... Can ubuntu ppc version be ran off of a USB flash drive onto the imac's if so how would I boot from the USB flash drive?
[04:44] <Pelo> Wayne_, probabaly
[04:44] <Pelo> !install
[04:44] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[04:44] <Pupeno> Hello.
[04:44] <Pupeno> Is there some gnome hexadecimal/binary editor?
[04:44] <Pupeno> Pelo: why?
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> Pupeno: he's in one of his moods.. he can be quite cantankerous
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:45] <wastrel> Pupeno:  i use hexer - it's a vi-like hex editor.  for gnome, i dunno
[04:45] <bill__k> Pupeno, GHexEdit
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> lol
[04:45] <Pupeno> Pelo: at least I say hello, instead of just asking.
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> Pupeno: well, most people, its preferred they just ask.
[04:45] <bill__k> Pupeno, look in synaptic (or adaept if you're on kubuntu)
[04:45] <IndyGunFreak> you have to remember, there's 1200 people in this channel,
[04:45] <Pelo> fortunately  ubuntu comes with a handy dictornnary
[04:46] <jscinoz> is there a way to schedule /tmp to autoclean itself? its taking up 20gb  :(
[04:46] <Wayne_> Pelo: I've googled for the last thirty minutes ; do you know how I would boot the iMac's from USB flash drive?
[04:46] <Pupeno> IndyGunFreak: I don't see saying hello is a problem yet.
[04:46] <DBO> !cron > jscinoz
[04:46] <IndyGunFreak> Pupeno: no, generally not...
[04:46] <IndyGunFreak> not right now.
[04:46] <jscinoz> and what would my script be?
[04:47] <IndyGunFreak> come in during the busy times, and your hello will be off hte screen before someone can answer.
[04:47] <DBO> jscinoz, just write a script that deletes everything in there
[04:47] <Pelo> !install > Wayne_   I donT' know sorry but there might be something in those links
[04:47] <Wayne_> I checked the links also.
[04:47] <Wayne_> Ugh so stressful.
[04:47] <gooch> does anyone know the difference between the regular and alternate install CDs?
[04:47] <jscinoz> so sudo rm /tmp/* ?
[04:48] <jscinoz> that gives "Argument list too long"
[04:48] <bluefox83> !dvd
[04:48] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> Wayne_: i don't think thats a Linux issue.
[04:48] <DBO> jscinoz, no no, you need to make a script that should check the age of the files in there too
[04:48] <Pelo> Wayne_,  try the forum then  there is a lot of user provided info on stuff like that,  I donT' realy know anything about macs
[04:48] <IndyGunFreak> gooch: the alternate install CD is text based... some PC's have trouble with the regular installer.
[04:48] <Wayne_> Thank you for your help.
[04:48] <MTecknology> Does anybody know how to explain what a multicast rate is?
[04:49] <jscinoz> and how would i do this? surely such a function should be built into ubuntu, you cant just leave temporary files growing to take half a disk in a day or two
[04:49] <Pelo> gooch,  the alternate cd is a text base installer,  the regular one is a live cd desktop
[04:49] <gooch> cool thanks
[04:49] <Pelo> jscinoz,  please donT' use the enter key for punctuation
[04:49] <IndyGunFreak> gooch: do you think you need the alt. install cd?
[04:49] <DBO> jscinoz, well normally they dont grow that fast... and it should clean itself automagically
[04:49] <IndyGunFreak> !enter
[04:49] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[04:49] <ulti2001> i got it thanks guys
[04:50] <codeshiftster> my friend is going to switch to Ubuntu and he asked me a question I couldn't help with about networking
[04:50] <DBO> jscinoz, I am looking for a better answer for you, please hold
[04:50] <jscinoz> Thanks
[04:50] <norton_escafe> jscinoz: cd /tmp && find -type f -exec rm '{}' ';'
[04:50] <Pelo> MTecknology, try lookign it up in wikipedia
[04:50] <norton_escafe> jscinoz: I would test it in a scratch dir first, of course.
[04:50] <IndyGunFreak> !ask | codeshiftster
[04:50] <ubotu> codeshiftster: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:50] <gooch> yeah i got a laptop that freezes on boot from the live cd...
[04:51] <IndyGunFreak> gooch: ok.. the alt. install CD, while text based, is pretty easy... i have to use it on my PC.
[04:51] <DBO> norton_escafe, you might want to add a time requirement to that too, so you dont delete stuff from active programs
[04:51] <wastrel> norton_escafe, jscinoz -delete is equivalent to -exec rm '{}' ';'  (but is less visually interesting)
[04:51] <codeshiftster> I was just giving some background.  I wasn't going to go much deeper if I didn't get a response
[04:51] <gopnik> gooch: i got the same problem then used alternate CD
[04:51] <DBO> jscinoz, sudo apt-get install tmpreaper
[04:51] <jscinoz> is there a way to make it not ask for confirmation for each file?
[04:51] <IndyGunFreak> gopnik: well, most aren't gonna respond to a general question, so just ask, if someone can help, they will.
[04:51] <jscinoz> ok thanks DBO
[04:51] <gopnik> also on laptop
[04:52] <codeshiftster> how do you check on surrounding wireless networks in Ubuntu?
[04:52] <wastrel> tmpreaper is a good name for a program!
[04:52] <Pelo> codeshiftster,  there is alot of traffic in this channel it is better to ask the question and if someone knows the answer they will jump in and provide it
[04:52] <norton_escafe> wastrel: sorry, old skool habits (don't need this newfangled -delete nonsense. :)
[04:52] <IndyGunFreak> gooch: my problem is dual displays, it chokes a live cd every time..lol
[04:52] <IndyGunFreak> so i have to alternate install.
[04:52] <Pelo> !wifi > codeshiftster  check pm windows
[04:52] <jscinoz> norton_escafe, DB0, wastrel thanks for your help
[04:53] <gopnik> IndyGunFreak: i don't have any question for now :)
[04:53] <IndyGunFreak> nortons name should be norton_escapee
[04:54] <codeshiftster> ...pm windows.  Right.  I'm going to google that now
[04:54] <juantao> Hello, is there anyone here who could help me with a virtual hosting problem?
[04:54] <juantao> I've either missed a step or misconfigured something: [warn]  NameVirtualHost jondowd.com:0 has no VirtualHosts
[04:55] <juantao> The sites are visable world wide, but get that error when I restart apache (although the sites function ok)
[04:55] <jscinoz> DB0, how can i schedule tmpreaper to run automatically
[04:55] <Pelo> codeshiftster,  private msg window , in your irc client,  a message from ubotu
[04:56] <cables> Can anyone using Beryl in here tell me what they have for Visual Effects > Wobbly Windows > Advanced > Grid > Grid Resolution? I messed up my settings so it would be great if someone could tell me the default values.
[04:56] <HiddenHax> woohooo
[04:57] <rainwalker> Why do some programs have the little window resizer triangle in the bottom right corner and others dont?
[04:57] <kramers> how do i install programs like flash?
[04:57] <crdlb> rainwalker: it's purely up to the program to add that widget
[04:57] <cables> !flash | kramers
[04:57] <ubotu> kramers: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[04:57] <Pelo> rainwalker,  developper's discretion
[04:57] <jobezone> Hi, I just submitted this bug to ubuntu: "The linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic package doesn't contain a initrd.img" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/114541
[04:57] <billy> kramers: use Synaptic Package Manager.
[04:57] <kramers> thank you
[04:57] <rainwalker> crdlb: is there a way I can add it?
[04:57] <amicrawler> is there a reson that  xine  hd content  drops to the bottom of the screen instead of the middle?
[04:58] <crdlb> rainwalker: no
[04:58] <rainwalker> :(
[04:58] <crdlb> unless you want to patch and recompile the apps
[04:58] <rainwalker> I was hoping it was an Ubuntu thing; neither Firefox nor Gimp has it
[04:59] <HiddenHax> PELO
[04:59] <jobezone> Can anyone confirm on their Feisty Fawns? Do a 'dpkg -L linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic' if you have the package installed.
[04:59] <HiddenHax> HI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[04:59] <amicrawler> is there a reson that  xine  hd content  drops to the bottom of the screen instead of the middle?
[04:59] <DBO> HiddenHax, try to tone it down please =)
[05:00] <jobezone> It should have install a newer version of initrd.img-etcetc in /boot
[05:01] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Is there a particular reason why I cannot fix broken packages in Synaptic?
[05:01] <Pelo> Neon_Gen_Eva, try removing them  ( completely ) and reinstalling
[05:01] <jobezone> anyone cares to confirm, by doing 'dpkg -L linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic' and see if there is no initrd.img.***** file installed under /boot ?
[05:02] <Neon_Gen_Eva> I attempted to complete remove the "Samba" package, and recieved an error exit status 102 ( think)
[05:02] <Pelo> jobezone,  this a pretty much a channel for noobs, you're talking above most ppl's level , sorry
[05:03] <crimsun> jobezone: that's because the initramfs is regenerated at install/upgrade.
[05:03] <jobezone> aaaahhhhhhhhh
[05:03] <jobezone> crimsun: dumb me!
[05:03] <norton_escafe> jobezone: there is not initrd in the package.  crimsun pointed out why. :)
[05:03] <jobezone> yep, I learned it just now
[05:04] <jobezone> it's this laptop then, that didn't manage to regenerate it.
[05:04] <jobezone> Will close the bug
[05:05] <jscinoz> what should the tmptime value in /etc/default/rcS be?
[05:05] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Pelo: Tried a complete remove and got "E: samba: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 102"
[05:05] <norton_escafe> jscinoz: is 0 in mine
[05:06] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Sorry to bother you again
[05:06] <jscinoz> does 0 mean never or auto?
[05:06] <jscinoz> because mine is 0 but it never cleans /tmp
[05:06] <Pelo> Neon_Gen_Eva, I was just giving some basic advice, I can't help further then that
[05:06] <Pelo> not on this anyway
[05:06] <Neon_Gen_Eva> Thanks anyways
[05:06] <Neon_Gen_Eva> IT was better than nothing.
[05:06] <norton_escafe> jscinoz: it means remove them no matter how new they are
[05:06] <jscinoz> ah
[05:07] <jscinoz> but why does mine never clean...
[05:07] <Neon_Gen_Eva> So thanks, any idea where I can get more help?  Another Channel or what?  If not, it's fine.
[05:07] <Pelo> Neon_Gen_Eva,   the forum would be a good place  search for borken pakcages  and see what turnes up

[05:08] <gopnik> thanks

[05:09] <vox754> Pelo, "locate cron" gives /etc/cron.weekly/sysklogd  and a few
[05:10] <antum> How do I reinstall an earlier version of ubuntu? I've put the Live CD in and restarted but it booted my old system
[05:10] <Pelo> vox754,  thakns
[05:11] <codeshiftster> vox754:  you too?
[05:11] <zcat[1] > problem; when I right-click an ISO and burn it to disk, I sometimes get no option to change the burn speed, sometimes only two options "maximum" and "51.1x" -- using other software I get the full range of speeds.
[05:11] <HiddenHax> ifconfig eth0 down;macchanger -m XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX eth0;ifconfig eth0 up
[05:11] <antum> Anyone know how to boot from CD?

[05:11] <Yggdrasil> is there any compatible web cam software under linux
[05:12] <juantao> antum: is this a bootable cd?
[05:12] <Yggdrasil> mon^rch did you try changeing the group ? do an ls -l -a
[05:13] <antum> Yeah, its from Ubuntu called 6.06 LTS, its the version we used to use but then switched to feisty and now things don't work so we want to reinstall our old system
[05:13] <juantao> antum: this live cd should have been what started
[05:13] <wastrel> what's .dmrc
[05:13] <Yggdrasil> got me
[05:13] <wastrel> desktop manager prolly
[05:13] <zcat[1] > antum, first up make sure it's a bootable CD.. restart your computer and you should see a brief message like "press DEL for setup".. usually DEL or F1 or F8 ... do that and you end up in the bios settings
[05:13] <antum> juantao, its on a mac mini if that makes any sense?
[05:14] <wastrel> display manager even
[05:14] <juantao> antum: is the cd drive working ok? can you see disc that put in it?
[05:14] <antum> zcat[1]  is there a similar command for mac?
[05:14] <juantao> oh. on a mac i think you have to hold down 'C' while booting
[05:14] <antum> juantao, its at the point where ubuntu wont bootup at all... so i can't see if its recognising the cd
[05:14] <zcat[1] > antum, ahh.. for Mac I think you hold down C or cmnd-C while it's booting... I don't know though, it's been a while..
[05:14] <antum> I'll go try that out...
[05:15] <zcat[1] > was that way on my beige mac, but that was a few years ago.
[05:15] <juantao> yes - put in the disc, restart the computer while holding down letter c
[05:15] <Yggdrasil> juantao u need to set the bios to do it if its a pc ? is it a mac ?
[05:16] <juantao> yes - they said it was a mac
[05:16] <antum> I've just booted it in recovery mode, I couldn't get anything different to happen by holding down C while booting.
[05:16] <dragonmc> any recommendations for an archive manager that supports rar 3.x archives and possibly .ace?
[05:16] <Yggdrasil> what kinda mac?
[05:16] <Yggdrasil> cuz c doenst always do it
[05:17] <antum> Yggdrasil Mac Mini
[05:17] <Yggdrasil> mm
[05:17] <Yggdrasil> kinky
[05:17] <antum> Yggdrasil do you know of another command?
[05:17] <HiddenHax> lala
[05:17] <Yggdrasil> yea s,ec
[05:17] <jason_> anyone use the skype program in ubuntu
[05:18] <juantao> antum: turn the computer off (with the disc in the tray) and then turn it on. as soon as it goes 'bonig' press letter c and dont let up until you see the 6.06 installer
[05:18] <zcat[1] > anyhow... someone wanna try my question? I can't burn slower than 52x from the desktop burner...
[05:18] <Yggdrasil> try just option
[05:18] <jason_> if so how do i make an international call on it
[05:18] <flyback> http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1660843971041561797&q=neodymium&hl=en <== I been wanting to do this for ages, high power magnets create eddy currents in aluminum and copper which causes a drag effect, they use these in newer roller coasters and vewrticle drop rides as a failsafe magnetic braking system
[05:18] <zcat[1] > well, sometimes 51.1x :(
[05:18] <antum> juantao ok, I'll give that a go, cheers
[05:18] <Pelo> zcat[1] ,  give  gnomebaker a try
[05:18] <Yggdrasil> option might give you a funky startup sscreen .
[05:18] <Yggdrasil> is there any compatible web cam software under linux
[05:18] <antum> Yggdrasil, I'll try that too!
[05:18] <zcat[1] > Pelo, yeah, no issues with k3b but that's not an answer, it's a workaround. I want nautilus to work properly
[05:19] <Yggdrasil> antum thats how u can netboot too
[05:19] <Yggdrasil> maybe
[05:19] <jason_> can anyone help me with that
[05:20] <jason_> i need to make a international call on skypes
[05:20] <Pelo> zcat[1] ,  when I click the burn cd button I get a dialog where I can set the speed ,  that's the best I can do for you
[05:20] <Pelo> jason_,  try #skype
[05:20] <zcat[1] > Pelo, I get the same dialog. Usually it's greyed out, sometimes it gives me the option of 51.1x .. k3b gives me all the speeds so I don't think it's a problem with the drive.
[05:20] <Pelo> jason_,  I mean check the skypes website for channel
[05:21] <jason_> so no one uses it
[05:21] <jason_> what it is when i put the +011 in and then the number it will not call it
[05:21] <Bogaurd>  when I do an fdisk -l, I notice that one of my partitions, which is part of an LVM array, is listed as having partition type 83 (Linux) whereas all the reast are listed as 8e (Linux LVM). Is this going to pose a problem down the track? Is it safe to modify this using fdisk?
[05:22] <antum> juantao / Yggdrasil Command and/or C doesn't do anything for me, it still just boots into GRUB and only options are Ubuntu, Recovery Mode (Ubuntu) or Ubuntu Memtest
[05:22] <zcat[1] > bah, back to k3b then until I find a real answer :(
[05:22] <Pelo> Bogaurd,  that's a question for a lvm channel
[05:23] <Bogaurd> Pelo: ok, thanks
[05:23] <Yggdrasil> antum if your getting grub you can do quite a bt.
[05:23] <Yggdrasil> bit
[05:23] <Yggdrasil> im going to sleep
[05:23] <Lounged> love this new ubstudio!
[05:23] <Pelo> Bogaurd, that'S wasn't a reprimand, it's just too specialies for this channel,  you're not likely to get an answer
[05:23] <Lounged> just installed it 2-day
[05:23] <antum> Yggdrasil, I'm not familiar with GRUB, how would I get that CD booting?
[05:24] <charles> is anyone here knowledgeable about external hard drives
[05:24] <Pelo> OMG  I think they fixed the thing in wine that confilcted with DHT in utorrent
[05:25] <charles> mine is ntfs
[05:25] <charles> i put on ntfs-3g
[05:25] <Pelo> and ...
[05:25] <charles> it worked just fine
[05:25] <charles> but the thing is
[05:25] <DBO> ... and?
[05:25] <charles> it's recognizing it
[05:25] <charles> i can see it
[05:25] <charles> and go into it
[05:26] <charles> it's read-only
[05:26] <DBO> charles, keep in mind the enter key is not a comma =)
[05:26] <tjl30> hey is anyone familiar with eclipse?
[05:26] <charles> duly noted
[05:26] <Pelo> charles,  change the permission
[05:26] <DBO> charles, can you please show us your /etc/fstab entry for it
[05:26] <charles> how... i'm kind of noob at linux
[05:27] <charles> o ok
[05:27] <antum> anyone know how to boot a cd from grub?
[05:27] <antum> an ubuntu live cd?
[05:27] <charles> charles@Victor:~$ mount /dev/sda1 /media/sda1
[05:27] <charles> mount: only root can do that

[05:27] <DBO> not the whole thing you silly silly man
[05:28] <DBO> just the one line with the ntfs-3g
[05:28] <DBO> give us the output of "cat /etc/fstab | grep ntfs"
[05:28] <Pelo> antum, you don'T boot the live cd from grub,  you just boot from the live cd,  you probably hit  F8 at boot  to get a boot device selection or some other key depending on your bios
[05:28] <Pelo> DBO, that was mean
[05:28] <DBO> Pelo, it stopped that flood
[05:28] <antum> Pelo its a Mac Mini, I've tried C and Command, but can't get anything coming up...
[05:29] <charles> it doesn
[05:29] <antum> I've got a previous install of Feisty which is buggered up, and wont let me login
[05:29] <Pelo> antum,  I donT, know about macs,  check your documentation for info on selecting a boot device
[05:29] <gregcha117> i resized my ntfs drive a while ago, and it broke windows so ive just been using it to access the files on there and i tryed to resize it again and i get an error, when i run dmesg it says buffer I/O error on device hda2
[05:29] <DBO> charles, ok, please join #DBO and paste the whole thing there

[05:30] <[Neurotic] > is regular crashing of Firefox a known issue with Ubuntu Feisty? and is there a workaround?
[05:31] <Lounged> what's the command for  making xscreensaver run as default instead of the regular one?
[05:31] <DBO> [Neurotic] , its known, there is no easy workaround, if you want the complex workaround I am more than happy to help
[05:31] <gregcha117> Pelo: i can mount it but i cant seem to resize it
[05:31] <SurfnKid> does ubuntu support APC backup UPS?
[05:31] <[Neurotic] > DBO: what causes it? at least maybe I can avoid it?
[05:31] <Pelo> [Neurotic] ,  I occasionnaly get FF crashes when I load heavy flash movies but that is pretty much it for me,  a freind had craches every few minutes,  neveer figured out why
[05:32] <IntelleCT> Hi everyone, what do you guys use to terminal into your ubuntu-server box from a windows pc?
[05:32] <DBO> [Neurotic] , beats me, seems to be related to network drivers in some fashion but in the end nobody is really sure right now
[05:32] <zcat[1] > IntelleCT, putty
[05:32] <Bastanteroma> I just compiled a patched Wine to install Joost, as per seemingly successful forum instructions, but the install dialog disappeared, leaving a bunch of messages in the terminal but no prompt.  Should I close the terminal?  Post the messages?
[05:32] <IntelleCT> zcat[1] : thanks...do you use ssh or terminal?
[05:32] <Pelo> gregcha117,  you can'T resize it smaller then the used portion ( if you get my meaning)
[05:32] <moDumass> hey all, so i spent most of this morngin trying to get back into my machine, done, but now i want to check and see if i have freed up enough space, also i want to check and see weather or not ive moved stuff to the right place
[05:32] <[Neurotic] > I'm running a few RIA heavy apps together - gmail, meebo, google docs and the chatzilla plugin ... seems to be not so happy
[05:33] <zcat[1] > putty is a windows ssh client
[05:33] <JammasterJay> Cant open any links in Wengophone....can anyone help?
[05:33] <IntelleCT> zcat[1] : sorry, I meant telnet
[05:33] <gregcha117> Pelo: there is 56 gigs of free space on the ntfs drive, i was trying to convert 50 of that to ext3 but it wont allow me to
[05:33] <moDumass> any one know how to read 'disk usage analyzer
[05:33] <Pelo> Bastanteroma,   try asking in #winehq
[05:33] <[Neurotic] > I wonder if it is what is causing my Synergy to drop in and out
[05:33] <Bastanteroma> Thanks Pelo
[05:33] <IntelleCT> I can't seem to connect via ssh...do you know what I need to do to get that going?
[05:33] <zcat[1] > telnet is a bad idea.. no security. putty/ssh encrypts everything
[05:33] <zcat[1] > and for copying files there's winscp
[05:33] <Pelo> greg__, backup the data,  trash the partition,  make a new one
[05:34] <DBO> [Neurotic] , its possibly related yes, btw if you are talking to me please say my name otherwise I dont notice
[05:34] <greenhobo21> Hey guys, I am having a real hard time connecting my printer.
[05:34] <nj786> hey does anybody know how to add a new installed theme for XMMS? im a noob so be gentle
[05:34] <nj786> lol
[05:34] <Lounged> i can wine to run Yahelite in linux but the yahvox won't connect 4 some reason
[05:34] <[Neurotic] > DBO: sorry, fair enough... so what's the complicated workaround? (If it's too complicated, I may end up saying 'stuff it')
[05:34] <nj786> anybody?
[05:34] <IntelleCT> zcat[1] : cool, I'll winscp in mind...another question...I've got my ubuntu-server on my network and able to ping but I can't connect via ssh through putty...am I missing something?
[05:34] <Pelo> nj786,   try cheking the xmms site for info
[05:35] <DBO> [Neurotic] , the complicated workaround is we temporarily enable the edgy repos, install the 2.6.17 kernel from edgy and set that to your default.  This will mitigate the issue until someone figures out why 2.6.20 is crashy
[05:35] <[Neurotic] > ewwwww
[05:35] <zcat[1] > IntelleCT, sudo apt-get install ssh  .. the server's not installed by default.. 'no open ports policy'
[05:35] <DBO> [Neurotic] , tell me about it
[05:36] <konam> someone have gfxboot on feisty?
[05:36] <IntelleCT> zcat[1] : thanks once again...will do that.
[05:36] <[Neurotic] > DBO: so it seems that it is actually a kernel issue?
[05:37] <DBO> [Neurotic] , yes it is a kernel issue of some sort
[05:37] <[Neurotic] > DBO: oh fun
[05:37] <[Neurotic] > DBO: I assume that whenever someone works it out, an update will come down the wire?
[05:37] <DBO> yes, and it will still show up in your update manager even if you are on the old kernel
[05:38] <[Neurotic] > awesome
[05:38] <[Neurotic] > then I will hang out and wait
[05:38] <jscinoz> H-K Suite makes me happy in my pants O_o
[05:38] <[Neurotic] > DBO: thanks for that, least I now know something is happening
[05:38] <Pelo> jscinoz, family channel
[05:39] <jscinoz> sorry =P
[05:39] <aum> hi - i tried the feisty fawn liveCD on my wife's Toshiba Satellite 1130 laptop - after 5 minutes it still wouldn't start - just sat there in a loop with the ubuntu/gnome splash screen, and a 'can't start gnome settings daemon' warning - any ideas?
[05:39] <Pelo> jscinoz,  no I meant  go and say that in #family
[05:39] <jscinoz> why?
[05:39] <Pelo> see how long it takes them to kick you out
[05:39] <Pelo> ;-)
[05:40] <anathematic> hi i'm installing samba on ubuntu 7.04 server at the moment and i slipped and deleted my /etc/samba/smb.conf file, wtf do i do?
[05:40] <oneweb> fawn has not made any updates to any of my programs in well over a week. should I re-install?
[05:40] <DBO> [Neurotic] , it might not be the quickest update... like i said, progress has been... slow and none of the kernel devs seem to have acknowledged it
[05:40] <jscinoz> Pelo, i'd say quite a long time since theres no one in the channel =P
[05:40] <Pelo> anathematic,  assuming you can't just restore it from the trash,  try reinstlling samba from synaptic
[05:40] <Iron_Chef> is it better to use rsa or dsa?
[05:40] <anathematic> Pelo: what do you mean from synaptic?
[05:41] <anathematic> i tried "sudo apt-get install samba smbfs" but i just got some error~
[05:41] <wastrel> dsa
[05:42] <Pelo> anathematic, synaptic package manager , it a gui front end for apt,  you can easily reisntal packages in it , it's a right click option,  should restore anything you deleted that is needed
[05:42] <anathematic> Pelo: i'm in console so i can't really do any gui stuff at the moment it's all in console :<
[05:42] <anathematic> any other way i can just get it back?
[05:42] <Pelo> anathematic, try sudo apt-get reinstall packagename
[05:43] <anathematic> invalid operation reinstall~
[05:43] <Srixon> Hello
[05:43] <Srixon> Im Back, and my problem... still sucks :P
[05:44] <Iron_Chef> hmm the answer was dsa :-)
[05:44] <Pelo> anathematic,  sudo apt-get check packagename
[05:44] <Pelo> Srixon,  can you state your problem again ?
[05:44] <eEEp> Wow, cool.
[05:45] <Pelo> eEEp,  you should get out less
[05:45] <anathematic> Pelo:  worked fine but i still can't install the package correctly
[05:45] <Srixon> Mister_Roboto: hey again, I cannot seem to be able to change the command, will not let me past the screen and i dont know how to work in the terminal (Linux Newbie)
[05:45] <eEEp> Pelo: LOL
[05:45] <Pelo> anathematic, maybe the ppl in #samba can help
[05:45] <anathematic> Pelo:  okay thanks i'l ask there
[05:46] <eEEp> Thanks for letting me stay; just browing around.
[05:46] <Pelo> anathematic, ask about your original question
[05:46] <Srixon> QUESTION!: Is there anyway to get into my installed ubuntu through my live-cd to fix a user directory error?
[05:46] <dunder> hey guys...i've got this Sansa e280 portable music player...and i deleted some songs on it, so they were sent to the .Trash-dunder directory on the device...now i can't delete the .Trash-dunder folder, gives me errors saying this is a read-only device (which isn't true since it created the .Trash-dunder directory to begin with & moved stuff there)
[05:47] <Pelo> Srixon,  not sure you can ,  what excatly did you that caused the problem ?
[05:48] <Pelo> dunder,   sudo chmod 777  /mountpoing
[05:48] <DBO> Srixon, you can chroot into the proper directory after you mount the hard drive from the live CD
[05:48] <DBO> with that done you can make system changes like normal
[05:49] <Srixon> I was trying to get root privs by setting my users directory to something else, now when i try to log on it gives me an error and wont let me past the logon screen  || I went to Users and Groups and changed My users home directory to somethign else.
[05:49] <DanaG> How can I change the timeout on gnome-vfs?
[05:49] <Srixon> DBO: could you walk me through this? i am a linux newbie.
[05:49] <DanaG> The SSH/SFTP servers at my school take roughly 45 seconds to respond, so gnome-vfs times out even before the password prompt.
[05:49] <DBO> Srixon, are you on the live cd?
[05:49] <Srixon> DBO: yes

[06:14] <DShepherd> abaddon: it should extract and compress .rar files..
[06:14] <abaddon> ok whats the code to install unrar
[06:14] <Srixon> DBO: Ahh! nvm got it! didnt get the d in passwd
[06:14] <DBO> ok thanks
[06:14] <DBO> now edit the file =)
[06:14] <DShepherd> abaddon: is it a .rar file? sudo apt-get install unrar
[06:14] <Srixon> DBO: Alright. im all edited :)
[06:15] <Srixon> DBO: Saved and Closed.
[06:15] <jscinoz> Hey everyone, i have a NVIDIA GPU with only 64mb of GpuRam, is there any way i can force it to use some main ram aswell?
[06:15] <DShepherd> abaddon: unzip file didn't work?
[06:15] <abaddon> it says .zip but usually downlaoding lineage is a .rar and if i can get .rar i can download it from somewhere else and see if it works
[06:15] <DBO> Srixon, cat /etc/group | grep 100
[06:15] <Srixon> jscinoz: Try looking for Xubuntu. its for lower end machines. that could do you some good :) (not trying to sound rude if it comes out that way)
[06:15] <DShepherd> abaddon: oh ok.. do your magic man :-)
[06:16] <Srixon> DBO: users:x:100:
[06:16] <Srixon> ntfs:x:1000:
[06:16] <abaddon> lol i hope it works
[06:16] <DBO> Srixon, ok go ahead and reboot, see if you can log in now =)
[06:16] <bootsmorris> the icons that are on the logout screen have gone away how do i get them back?
[06:16] <jscinoz> my machine can run normal ubuntu fine, its just for highly graphical stuff (games) that doesnt work, my gpu has only 54mb ram while my system has 2gb and i need the gpu to use some system ram, is this possible?
[06:17] <Srixon> DBO: Alrighty, Thanks much! I also have another problem, should i ask now or wait till relogged? i think it may be a minor quick fix.
[06:17] <DBO> ask now, just in case
[06:17] <luisgmarine> can Ubuntu mount *.img?
[06:17] <levander> What MP3 genre should I use for these NPR news programs I'm encoding?
[06:17] <levander> Speech is the closest one I see, but they aren't really speeches.
[06:18] <jscinoz> How can I get the evdev  mouse driver to work without causing X to fail?
[06:18] <Srixon> DBO: I cannot write to my 2nd harddrive, Its IDE and my Main is SATA, any reason? i have the NTFS Writing addon(?) And i've tried reformatting as ext3 and xfs. but it will not give me the privs to do so.
[06:18] <DBO> Srixon, we will deal with that once you are back in Ubuntu proper
[06:18] <DBO> Srixon, please reboot and see if you can log in now
[06:18] <Srixon> Alright. Be right back!
[06:19] <aZn137> something is wrong with my wpc54g driver
[06:19] <aZn137> everytime i plug in my card it freezes
[06:20] <levander> I have gotten zero help in this channel today.  You guys suck.
[06:20] <abaddon> dshepherd: i found a .rar lineage but it wont be done downlaoding until tomorow thanks for all your help though
[06:21] <Pupeno> Is Mozilla no longer shipped with Ubuntu? (7.04)
[06:21] <jeannot> levander: no, u suck
[06:21] <DShepherd> abaddon: no prob.. you got those commands down right?
[06:22] <srixon> DBO: Alright im back
[06:22] <DShepherd> Pupeno:Mozilla Firefox is... not Mozilla
[06:22] <srixon> Mmmm. Beryl.
[06:22] <Pupeno> oh! :( ok.
[06:22] <DBO> srixon, ok everything working proper now I take it?
[06:23] <abaddon> dshepherd yeah unzip file and unzip e package
[06:23] <DBO> srixon, can I please have your /etc/fstab in pastebin for my viewing pleasure?
[06:23] <srixon> DBO; Yep. everything going great, cept it reeminded me i have another problem :P Microphone doesnt come through correctly.
[06:23] <TheFlyingFool> does mp3 support come in 7.04?
[06:23] <srixon> dbo: Maybe... ok sure
[06:23] <DBO> !mp3

[06:24] <srixon> DBO: Permission Denied.
[06:24] <DBO> srixon, just do "cat /etc/fstab", and copy and paste it in place
[06:24] <DBO> to pastebin that is
[06:24] <srixon> DBO: Its letting me write to my Seondary Harddrive now.
[06:24] <DBO> well then quit your whining =P
[06:25] <srixon> lol
[06:25] <srixon> DBO: That.. really hurts.
[06:25] <squidink> I'm trying to install on a server using the Alternate install CD, and it keeps crapping out trying to load module trm290. The CD is OK.
[06:25] <srixon> DBO: :P
[06:25] <DBO> srixon, I need more details about this mic issue if I am going to help with it
[06:25] <srixon> DBO: Is there anyway to givemyself the same rights/privs as the root user?
[06:26] <DBO> srixon, you dont want to do that
[06:26] <DBO> srixon, if you need to do something as root, use sudo, but use it as sparingly as possible.  Launching your browser as root for example is a very dumb thing to do
[06:26] <DShepherd> abaddon: its actually unrar e file.rar and unzip file.zip..
[06:27] <srixon> DBO: Ok, I use ventrilo, Installed through wine. I have a Sound Blaster X-FI Card, NO drivers so im using my onboard. I get sound fine.. but my microphone Gets no Input to the PC, i've tried in every port, No input to the PC. the microphone works.. works fine on my windows PC
[06:28] <DBO> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=434488  <--- check that out srixon
[06:32] <srixon> DBO: Ok, Done all that, still no input.
[06:32] <ixian_> is there a way that you can control ubuntu, the UI and everything, remotely? like being able to see what's currently on the screen, control the cursor, etc, from a different computer
[06:32] <|chiz|> ixian_: vnc
[06:32] <bulmer> you have a choice of vncviewer or nxmachine
[06:33] <bulmer> an also X
[06:33] <DBO> srixon, which sound card are you plugging it into?
[06:34] <srixon> My onboard Soundcard, Analog Devices
[06:34] <musaddi> I have intel 946gz mainboard and 19" samsung widescreen monitor 940BW, can I install install ubuntu? Will I get 1440x900 resolution?
[06:34] <srixon> Currently not using my Sound Blaster Xfi, Theres no drivers for it :/
[06:34] <squidink> I'm trying to install off the server CD but it keeps hanging when trying to load IDE driver for trm290. Any ideas?
[06:35] <DBO> srixon, sorry I dont know =(
[06:35] <squidink> musaddi: if windows can do it then ubuntu probably can
[06:35] <ixian_> |chiz|, is there a program that would allow a windows pc to login to a ubuntu pc?
[06:35] <srixon> squidink: Give sup Computers? :P just playing.. no idea here.
[06:35] <musaddi> with live cd I get 1024x768
[06:35] <srixon> DBO: *tear* Thank you much for everything DBO.. you need any windows help... ever... lol... im your man ;P
[06:35] <musaddi> How do I get 1440x900?
[06:36] <|chiz|> ixian_: realvnc is a good client
[06:36] <squidink> musaddi: you prolly need 915resolution - dunno if that loads on thre liveCD
[06:36] <squidink> musaddi: what graphics chipset is it?
[06:37] <musaddi> 946gz
[06:37] <|chiz|> ixian_: you will have to enable the server on your machine
[06:37] <ixian_> |chiz|, okay thanks. and yep i was reading about that on the wiki
[06:37] <|chiz|> ixian_: you can enable that in system->preferences->remote desktop
[06:38] <srixon> Thanks everyone! Have a GOOD NIGHT!
[06:38] <musaddi> squidink: thank you, I will try 915resolution
[06:39] <Tarkus> hey, i need some help with mounting an external drive.. i can get it mounted but i cant copy/paste/move/modify any of the files.. any idea how i can grant permissions to it?
[06:39] <robbie_crash>  I cannot get my resolution to display at my monitor's native setting of 1280*1024. I've got it stated in my xorg.conf, I've followed all the walk throughs I can find, and still I'm stuck at 1280*960. I know the card is capable of displaying at 1280*1024, but it won't. I'm using ubuntu Feisty, with the latest nvidia drivers. Anyone have any ideas? I've tried asking in #nvidia, but nobody is ever there.
[06:39] <charlie__> hello
[06:40] <charlie__> I have a problem mounting a drive
[06:40] <robbie_crash> Tarkus, what file system is it?
[06:40] <Tarkus> ntfs
[06:40] <robbie_crash> !ntfs | tarkus
[06:40] <ubotu> tarkus: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[06:40] <charlie__> its an xd card that slots into my toshiba m100 laptop
[06:40] <robbie_crash> !ntfs-3g | Tarkus
[06:40] <ubotu> Tarkus: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[06:41] <Tarkus> robbie_crash, thanks man
[06:41] <robbie_crash> np
[06:41] <robbie_crash> charlie__, what happens when you insert a card?
[06:42] <kendellsmith> i'm still having trouble getting ubuntu server edition to grab an IP via DHCP from my Belkin router
[06:42] <Pupeno> !mp3
[06:42] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[06:42] <robbie_crash> kendellsmith, is dhcpd running?
[06:42] <ixian_> i would be wary about writing to ntfs, people say its pretty reliable but i corrupted a partition with ntfs-3g
[06:43] <kendellsmith> is that needed for the server box to obtain an IP from my router
[06:43] <robbie_crash> ixian_, how long ago? They've said that they haven't had any data integrity issues in over a year?
[06:43] <Srixon> DBO: Are you still here?
[06:43] <DBO> yes
[06:43] <Srixon> DBO: fixed the mic problem. Do you know how to get the GSM CCodec and install it into ubuntu?
[06:44] <robbie_crash> kendellsmith, you need your router to be giving out dhcp addresses, and to have dhcpd running on your box to obtain addresses, as far as I know. I'm not positive though, I say that because that's what I had to disable to get my static to stick.
[06:44] <intelikey> anyone got any idea why the binary from the repos wont work for my nvidia card (Riva128) http://pastebin.us/?dl=35464   ?
[06:44] <DBO> Srixon, sorry
[06:44] <ixian_> robbie_crash, in the last week it happened
[06:44] <DBO> Srixon, I imagine you can google as well as I can
[06:45] <joe7d6> who often visit linuxactionshow.com, dont they realise their site theme is dead slow? ...
[06:45] <Srixon> DBO: well your worthless... :P jk.. Anyway to use a flashdrive in a way similar to readyboost in vista?   || I've looked through google. Im not a total noob :P
[06:45] <ixian_> so im sticking with fat32 for my movies/music partition now
[06:45] <robbie_crash> ixian_, yikes, I dunno then. Why not use ext3 or ext2 with the Windows ext2 driver?
[06:45] <intelikey> ixian_ don't forget the 2g limit there
[06:46] <DBO> Srixon, to be honest, I dont know what readyboost is, describe it in 10 words or less =P
[06:46] <Absens> I just installed windows xp on my slave drive while my primary was disconnected.  Now in ubuntu when i open "computer" i see "Filesystem.desktop" and cannot access it.  It gives the error msg, the location is not a folder
[06:46] <charlie__> hi i cant mount my xd drive on my toshiba laptop i tried mounting it as fat32 and no dice linux doesnt even see it
[06:46] <ixian_> i guess i could give that a try
[06:47] <Srixon> DBO: Readyboost uses a flashdrive as cache/pagefile
[06:47] <ixian_> i'd prefer to have it as ntfs but i dont trust ntfs writing in linux anymore :|
[06:47] <HymnToLife> intelikey, try to blacklist the rivafb module, it's known to cause problems with the nvidia driver
[06:47] <Srixon> DBO: 7 words :P
[06:47] <robbie_crash> charlie__, aren't most flash drives fat16?
[06:47] <charlie__> im not suer
[06:47] <charlie__> sure
[06:47] <aZn137> tot they were fat32
[06:47] <DBO> Srixon, you COULD but it would be slower than a hard drive...
[06:47] <charlie__> its a standard xd
[06:47] <Srixon> USB 2.0 Is about 12x faster than a harddrive.
[06:48] <charlie__> flash for a camera and it slots into the side of my laptop
[06:48] <intelikey> HymnToLife it was blacklisted.   when i first tried.  then i commented it out and inserted rivafb.  it works fine  but still no nvidia
[06:48] <robbie_crash> charlie__, I've never used xd so I have no idea
[06:48] <charlie__> like sd same deal
[06:48] <Srixon> DBO: i think i found something.. let me look at this :P
[06:49] <cjae_> if I put a ps2 disc in my rom could I extract the dialogue from the game??
[06:49] <torpedo|dog> What's a good FTP daemon that's available in the repositories?
[06:49] <charlie__> just flash memory but because it slots direct into the side of my toshiba it doesnt behave like a flash drive
[06:49] <intelikey> HymnToLife if you notice in the pastebin that the first attempt was nvidia  then rivafb then nvidia again
[06:49] <DBO> Srixon, the bus speed is faster yes but the write speed isnt...
[06:49] <cjae_> or is it encrypted too!
[06:50] <DBO> Srixon, plus you will wear out the poor flash drive really quick that way... but yes you can use a flash drive as swap if you really want to
[06:50] <Srixon> DBO: I've been using this flashdrive like that for a long while :P... its OCZ so its a good quality flash ram drive.
[06:50] <HymnToLife> intelikey, what's the PCI-ID of your card
[06:50] <HymnToLife> maybe it's just not supported by the driver
[06:51] <robbie_crash> DBO, Vista has apparently fixed ALL of those issues! It's amazing! the write limit is removed! Don't worry!
[06:51] <drgeb> in my Xorg.log file I see "Could not init font path element /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc, removing from list!" where is this comming from cause I don't have this in my xorg.conf file
[06:51] <robbie_crash>  I cannot get my resolution to display at my monitor's native setting of 1280*1024. I've got it stated in my xorg.conf, I've followed all the walk throughs I can find, and still I'm stuck at 1280*960. I know the card is capable of displaying at 1280*1024, but it won't. I'm using ubuntu Feisty, with the latest nvidia drivers. Anyone have any ideas? I've tried asking in #nvidia, but nobody is ever there.
[06:51] <DBO> robbie_crash, amazing, I didnt know they could fix hardware limitations with software =P
[06:52] <DBO> Srixon, please trust me when I say the write speed of that flash drive is probably about 10MB's
[06:52] <robbie_crash> DBO, They can do everything! They're Microsoft! It just works (tm)
[06:52] <Absens> When I open "computer - file browser" my hdd and cd drive now have .desktop and .drive extensions after them and when I try to open them it says "the location is not a folder" -  what's happening??
[06:52] <HymnToLife> DBO, that's the normal speed for USB 2, so what ?
[06:52] <intelikey> HymnToLife  bus info: pci@01:00.0
[06:53] <robbie_crash> Although I am glad I booted into Windows the other day, as the nvidia tools on there told me why my computer keeps crashing.
[06:53] <DBO> HymnToLife, hard drives are faster is the point =P
[06:53] <wicked> hey does anyone know of an error that says tty not owned by group in tty?
[06:53] <wicked> tty not owned by group tty
[06:53] <HymnToLife> intelikey, lspci -n | grep 01:00.0 | awk '{print $3}'
[06:53] <HymnToLife> that gives ?
[06:53] <wicked> whenever you try commands
[06:54] <intelikey> 12d2:0018
[06:54] <Srixon> DBO: I dunno DBO, i've read things that show USB Writing/Readin is faster then an HDD, the only reason that you shouldnt mount a permanent OS on it is that its not as reliable.
[06:54] <intelikey> 12d2:0018 HymnToLife
[06:54] <HymnToLife> intelikey, your card is just not supported
[06:54] <HymnToLife> it starts at 0x0020
[06:55] <HymnToLife> see here http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_32667.html
[06:55] <intelikey> heh.
[06:55] <Railer> ubuntu screen saver, how do I get the SS to show pictures from a folder on screen?
[06:55] <seamus7> Are all ports locked down by default on a new install of ubuntu?
[06:55] <justin_> mm
[06:56] <duffyd> hi, I think this may just be a general ubuntu issue but I can't seem to get my internet browsers to recognise any host entries I put in my /etc/hosts file - anyone having a similar issue?
[06:56] <happycalf> I came into trouble when i using vsftp+mysql+pam,can anyone help?
[06:56] <duffyd> if I ping the host addresses they work fine but in the browser it doesn't recognise the changes
[06:56] <justin_> beryl on ubuntu with radeon 9200 dual head: having major problems with redraw on second desktop - and i dont see that option that you get with nvidia so that you can turn off the gl stuf or something... i just dont know.......
[06:57] <DBO> Srixon, RAM drives are faster, flash drives are much slower...
[06:57] <justin_> duffyd, does dns resolve when you ping google.com ?
[06:57] <duffyd> justin_: yes
[06:57] <DBO> Srixon, Im really sure of this, Im still happy to help you do this, but not without making you aware of that first
[06:57] <dibblego> why does sudo env - /etc/rc2.d/myscript start my server, yet it won't start during boot? how do I find out more information about rc scripts that run at boot?
[06:57] <duffyd> dns resolution in general is fine just the /etc/hosts stuff
[06:57] <justin_> duffyd, mmm
[06:58] <justin_> duffyd, sudo apt-get install epiphany-browser
[06:58] <DBO> dibblego, sudo apt-get install sysv-rc-conf
[06:58] <duffyd> well actually the /etc/hosts is fine too just can't open the site in fire fox
[06:58] <justin_> then open that and try google.com
[06:58] <justin_> eh?
[06:58] <duffyd> ok
[06:58] <DBO> dibblego, then, sudo sysv-rc-conf
[06:58] <justin_> wiat
[06:58] <cbs> dibblego: may you forgot to include high dependancy services to run on startuop?
[06:58] <justin_> just keep telling meh :>
[06:58] <Srixon> DBO: I understand What your saying, but the writing is slower correct, but as a swap drive does it really write all that much? because it the majority of the time is spent reading than it should be fine.
[06:58] <DBO> dibblego, anything that is checked underneath the number 2 is run at boot
[06:58] <dibblego> DBO, that's what I don't understand; the server hasn't started - I have to do it myself
[06:59] <DBO> Srixon, it would be half and half, so yeah it would be slower
[06:59] <DBO> dibblego, did you install the software I told you to?
[06:59] <DBO> and check to make sure its checked
[06:59] <dibblego> DBO, yep; looking at it now
[06:59] <dibblego> DBO, 2,3,4,5 is checked
[07:00] <Srixon> DBO: Oh.. well nvm then :P is there anyway i could make use of a flash drive as some sort of... "Booster"? i mean im running on a high end system anywho... but i like to tinker/tweak :P
[07:00] <duffyd> justin_: exactly the same issue
[07:00] <DBO> dibblego, does your script fall on its face if you pass it the start arguement?
[07:00] <cbs> what is the apt-get for mozilla shockwave flash install?
[07:00] <intelikey> so is that the bottom line.    linux / nvidia    doesn't support my 9 year old graphics card  ?
[07:00] <justin_> duffyd, so it wont go to the webby from the browser but it will resolve via terminal?
[07:00] <dibblego> DBO, it doesn't accept any arguments normally; do you mean if I pass an argument explicitly?
[07:00] <bimberi> !shockwave | cbs
[07:00] <ubotu> cbs: Shockwave is currently only available for Windows. To run it under !Wine, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[07:00] <justin_> intelikey, it probably does
[07:01] <justin_> what card
[07:01] <duffyd> justin_: I did see a thread here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=317242 that spoke about some ipv6 issues with the /etc/hosts file
[07:01] <DBO> Srixon, you could use it to store files for easy transfer between different machines... like some kind of mini portable hard drive
[07:01] <intelikey> nvidia justin_
[07:01] <duffyd> justin_: I tried them but no dice
[07:01] <intelikey> justin_ riva 128
[07:01] <DBO> dibblego, yeah because at boot it will be passed the "start" argument
[07:01] <justin_> intelikey, nvidia-legacy-glx is what your looking at most likely
[07:01] <dibblego> DBO, oh I didn't know that
[07:01] <justin_> !nvidia
[07:01] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:01] <intelikey> justin_ nope don't work
[07:01] <duffyd> well it does go to the web but doesn't go to the server that is defined with the specific ip address in my /etc/hosts
[07:01] <justin_> check that and its got a link as to what is in there for legacy
[07:01] <justin_> you need to manually download the driver and go through a couple steps
[07:01] <Srixon> DBO: Yea i figured that much, but im looking for a performance boost on a single system, i have other "pendrives" i use for that. just wondering if there were any tweak options, but it sounds liek not.. thanks much! :)
[07:02] <dibblego> DBO, it starts just fine
[07:02] <justin_> gimme bit and i'll find the good nvidia directions for you
[07:02] <intelikey> justin_  http://pastebin.us/?dl=35467
[07:02] <duffyd> justin_: just so you've got a context for this - I'm a web dev and I've got a dev site setup on another ip address and for some reason none of my browsers are recognising this address assignment in /etc/hosts
[07:02] <wday> Hi everyone, this is kind of a long shot -- but I'm out of look for googling. I'm capturing video on Linux using dvgrab (1394), but the workflow needs to be ported to Mac OS X. Any ideas of dvgrab-like software on OS X? (It just needs to be schedulable)
[07:02] <justin_> ah

[07:02] <happycalf> hello, i encounter the difficulty when using vsftpd+mysql+pam,can anyone so kind to help?
[07:02] <DBO> dibblego, what did you name the file?
[07:02] <justin_> and duffyd is your hostname in the localhost line: 127.0.0.1 localhost <your_hostname>

[07:03] <Grandpajoe> hey guys, real stupid question here: whats the keyboard shortcut to minimize all windows?
[07:03] <justin_> put your /etc/network/interfaces in that
[07:03] <DBO> dibblego, if its in /etc/rc2.d it needs to start with S95 or S98 or some high number (two digit)
[07:03] <dibblego> DBO, $ sudo env - /etc/init.d/teamcity-startup start this works fine (and is linked to from rc2,3,4,5)
[07:03] <dibblego> DBO, yes, it starts with S20 in rcX (I used update-rc)
[07:03] <duffyd> justin_: I was under the understanding that I could just override dns by specifying an ip address in /etc/hosts
[07:03] <duffyd> justin_: ok
[07:04] <DBO> dibblego, you sure it doesnt depend on another script to finish before it starts and that its not simply failing?
[07:04] <dibblego> DBO, $ ls -l /etc/rc2.d/S20teamcity-startup
[07:04] <intelikey> justin_ so linux and nvidia doesn't support my card ?
[07:04] <DBO> dibblego, change the S20 to S99
[07:04] <Wiseguy> hey guys, does anyone use amarok for a 5g ipod?
[07:04] <dibblego> there's no other script it would depend on, but ok
[07:04] <justin_> intelikey, eh ?
[07:05] <intelikey> justin_  http://pastebin.us/?dl=35467
[07:05] <DeafByBeheading> Hi, my wireless card did not work on 7.04, but it turned out all I needed to do was copy in the right firmware, and I got it working now. I know I need to run iwconfig with the right settings to configure it, but I'm not sure what startup script this should go in. Any suggestions?
[07:05] <IntuitiveNipple> morning :)
[07:05] <justin_> what kinda card again?
[07:05] <Grandpajoe> good morning
[07:05] <intelikey> justin_ riva 128
[07:05] <DBO> dibblego, have you considered adding logging to the script so it creates a log file?  see if its even being fired off
[07:05] <Ademan> is there any app that will list all of the package dependencies of a given package? (like EVERYTHING, like you know, packageX depends on libgtk-2.4 (which in turn depends on libglib-2.4 etc etc)
[07:05] <justin_> yeah thats a non-essential issue
[07:05] <DeafByBeheading> it's an xterasys with an acx111 chipset.
[07:05] <dibblego> DBO, yeah I'll try this first (rebooting...)
[07:05] <DBO> dibblego, also is the script its chmod +x
[07:05] <duffyd> justin_: http://pastebin.us/35468
[07:05] <dibblego> DBO, yes
[07:05] <justin_> intelikey, can you do the same for lspci -vvv
[07:05] <Pupeno> DeafByBeheading: that is configured on /etc/network/interfaces. man interfaces for more info. The GUI for network config for Ubuntu might do the trick.
[07:05] <cbs> Does anyone know where to get they "All Your Base Animation" in somehting other than flash?
[07:06] <intelikey> lspci -n | grep 01:00.0 | awk '{print $3}'  <<returns>>  12d2:0018
[07:06] <intelikey> justin_ second.  i will.
[07:06] <dibblego> DBO, like I said, I can execute the script manually and the server starts
[07:06] <Grandpajoe> cbs, does your flash not work?
[07:06] <justin_> ah
[07:06] <cbs> no
[07:06] <justin_> duffyd, its a lot easier than we thought
[07:06] <Grandpajoe> do you have amd?
[07:06] <justin_> :>
[07:06] <cbs> yes
[07:06] <duffyd> justin_: oh cool
[07:06] <Grandpajoe> I had the same problem
[07:06] <DeafByBeheading> Pupeno: awesome, thanks. (No X on this machine, or I probably could've figured out a GUI solution).
[07:06] <intelikey> justin_   http://intelikey.pastebin.us/35469
[07:06] <Grandpajoe> lemme find the link to fix all of that
[07:06] <cbs> howd u fix it?
[07:06] <DBO> dibblego, ok please add a quick "echo "blah blah" >> somelogfile.txt" to the script
[07:06] <Cassionan> inteli, It's probable that the riva 128 is not supported.  It's also highly probable that you could snag a rockin other card for pretty darn cheap.
[07:06] <justin_> your terminal is using say eth0 and firefox eth1 [wireless]  or w/e
[07:06] <cbs> thankyou
[07:07] <justin_> disable one of them
[07:07] <justin_> :)
[07:07] <Grandpajoe> real hard, follow the link
[07:07] <DBO> dibblego, see if we cant figure out whats going on
[07:07] <dibblego> DBO, ok
[07:07] <bimberi> Grandpajoe: ctrl-alt-D  (to show desktop)
[07:07] <duffyd> justin_: ok
[07:07] <Grandpajoe> ok well it was hard for me, cause this is the first time I ever used linux lol
[07:07] <intelikey> Cassionan agp ?
[07:07] <cbs> grandpajoe: whats the link?
[07:07] <Pupeno> DeafByBeheading: then just edit the config file... may take a while to get it to work, but it is worth it. After that configuring network on Ubuntu and Debian is trivial.
[07:07] <calliope> oh man dibblego has invaded ubuntu too
[07:07] <lasking> how to set gdesklet weather url?
[07:07] <intelikey> Cassionan when did agp cards get cheep ?
[07:07] <Grandpajoe> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=341727
[07:07] <Grandpajoe> there ya go
[07:07] <dibblego> calliope, eh?
[07:07] <Cassionan> yeah, find yourself a 6600gt for 30$
[07:07] <IntuitiveNipple> intelikey: I just noticed you're on about an NVidia issue, which version of Ubuntu are you working with?
[07:08] <justin_> intelikey, yeah looks fine: http://http.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-8762/README/appendix-a.html
[07:08] <dibblego> DBO, I think I may have found something; I'll report back later
[07:08] <intelikey> IntuitiveNipple dapper
[07:08] <Grandpajoe> btw, the last step says it has some output, it didn't for me, but it ended up working anyway
[07:08] <justin_> note that all the riva tnt2's are in there
[07:08] <Grandpajoe> and now you can use youtube and such
[07:08] <Cassionan> check newegg.com
[07:08] <DeafByBeheading> Pupeno: Yeah, I had this card working before under Sarge (a couple of years ago), so it shouldn't be too hard. Thanks again.
[07:08] <intelikey> justin_ this is an riva not a tnt
[07:08] <lasking> who know my question?
[07:08] <justin_> IntuitiveNipple, if he does the manual direct from nvidia that should fix it... etc
[07:08] <cbs> hooray thanks im going to see what I can do
[07:08] <justin_> oic intelikey
[07:08] <Pupeno> DeafByBeheading: once it is configured, you can play with /etc/init.d/network restart and ifup and ifdown.
[07:09] <IntuitiveNipple> oh ok - thought it may have been Feisty. I just got the nivida 8776 build drivers patched and working in it over the weekend for a GEforce2 MX chipset

[07:10] <intelikey> yeah i can get xorg up with the nv driver.
[07:10] <justin_> and i'm fairly certain that the legacy proprietary worx
[07:10] <Cassionan> http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130053
[07:10] <justin_> ive noticed since edgy i gotta go proprietary dunno why
[07:10] <DeafByBeheading> Got it. I've gotten reasonably comfortable as a *nix user, but this is my first shot at trying to admin a server (fortunately it's just mine; I'm not responsible to anyone). Thanks again for the help.  'Night.
[07:10] <intelikey> this is dapper
[07:11] <Rictoo> Guys, name your favorite Linux games
[07:11] <justin_> ok brb
[07:11] <Pupeno> Rictoo: emacs!
[07:11] <disinterested> xmoto
[07:11] <Rictoo> emacs?
[07:11] <Rictoo> ...?
[07:11] <Cassionan> What I just linked was a cheap agp card intelikey
[07:11] <Pupeno> Rictoo: just a joke.
[07:11] <Rictoo> -.-
[07:12] <Rictoo> what's xmoto?
[07:12] <disinterested> its a motor cycle trials riding type game
[07:13] <Rictoo> xmoto is a ripoff of elma XD
[07:14] <intelikey> ok i'm not seeing anything pretanant on that page.
[07:14] <luisgmarine> Is it hard to split up and re-merge Linux partitions?
[07:16] <jscinoz> Why does my bootup hold for an abnormally long time at "Starting swapfile swap"?
[07:16] <intelikey> luisgmarine i don't see why it would be.   gparted cd
[07:16] <ub12> Does any one here know what to do with a memtest result? One with errors.
[07:16] <dibblego> ub12, buy new memory
[07:16] <lightrush> ub12: do u clock?
[07:17] <intelikey> ub12 with errors.   eeek
[07:17] <Assassin`> hey how do i get quake
[07:17] <disinterested> dr.s say take a pill for more momory
[07:17] <ub12> dibblego, I have brought two sticks of memory at different times and they are both faulyt?
[07:17] <ub12> lightrush, I do not clock
[07:17] <Assassin`> please dont direct me to shit either
[07:17] <cables> Is there a package for Desktop Data Manager in the repos? I'm not sure what the package name I should be searching for is.
[07:17] <luisgmarine> intelikey, I'm about to switch over to x86_64, but I have a crapload of games that I have extracted, and I don't want to loose them, so I want to great another partition, move my games and stuff to that partition and then install x86_64 and then remerge that partition once amd 64 is installed
[07:17] <IntuitiveNipple> ub12: reseat the RAM sticks, reduce the RAM clock-speed, or replace the RAM
[07:17] <cables> !ohmy | Assassin`
[07:17] <ubotu> Assassin`: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[07:17] <lightrush> ub12: if Memtest gives u errors - then something is wrong and it is not software
[07:17] <Assassin`> o snap sorry
[07:18] <luisgmarine> On the contrary has anyone in this channel installed Cedega and Ubuntu x86_64?
[07:18] <cables> !quake | Assassin`
[07:18] <ubotu> Assassin`: Quake runs natively under Ubuntu - See http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/quake4/ for details
[07:18] <Assassin`> little drinky drinky and came from other channel
[07:18] <Assassin`> sorry
[07:18] <Assassin`> :)
[07:18] <lightrush> ub12: memtest is used by many overclockers for tests whiule overclocking
[07:18] <intelikey> luisgmarine gparted cd
[07:18] <ub12> IntuitiveNipple, Could a FSD running too slow cause these errors?
[07:18] <luisgmarine> intelikey, lol for cedega?
[07:18] <lightrush> ub12: and if it gives errors then hardware is wrong
[07:18] <Assassin`> well help with torrents and such...
[07:18] <Och4> does anyone play video games here?  i could really use some help.
[07:18] <ub12> ^^^FSB
[07:18] <lightrush> ub12: either memory or MB
[07:18] <IntuitiveNipple> ub12: Unlikely, it generally fails when its being run too fast
[07:18] <luisgmarine> Och4, what's up?
[07:19] <intelikey> luisgmarine no for your partition work.
[07:19] <Assassin`> like how would i get it on here torrented
[07:19] <cables> Assassin`, read the link.
[07:19] <luisgmarine> intelikey, would I have to add anything to my fstab when i reboot?  Like so I can start copying all the files onto that partition?
[07:19] <intelikey> shouldn't
[07:19] <Och4> luisgmarine, I can't get my lineage 2 game to work.  I'
 please dont direct me to s*** either
[07:19] <luisgmarine> Och4, lmao are you the one in #cedega?
[07:20] <cables> Assassin`, well I'm not going to spend my time reading you the document.
[07:20] <Assassin`> i wanted direct support
[07:20] <Och4> luisgmarine, I've tryed wine and cedega. but nothing helps
[07:20] <luisgmarine> Och4, lol if so we are in the same boat
[07:20] <Assassin`> umm i dont want that
[07:20] <Och4> luisgmarine, maybe> maybe even wine >.<
[07:20] <cables> Assassin`, you'll just have to wait for someone else who's willing to walk you through it. There's a reason we have Ubotu here.
[07:20] <Assassin`> i would still be reading it then wouldn't i
[07:21] <Och4> luisgmarine, what game are you currently trying to troubleshoot?
[07:21] <luisgmarine> Och4, http://cedegawiki.sweetleafstudios.com/wiki/Lineage_2
[07:21] <cables> Assassin`, people here are willing to help people who genuinely can't figure out how to do things. You're just lazy.
[07:21] <jisatsu__> I've got 3 files, how can I join them up into one big file? I don't mean like an archive or anything, literally just 3 files, end on end, as one file
[07:21] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: You could boot from a Live CD, then use gparted to shrink the partition to create space. Create a new extended partition in the free space and new logical partition(s) in there, then use copy (cp) to move what you want into it.
[07:21] <cables> jisatsu__, use the "cat" command
[07:21] <Assassin`> excuse me
[07:21] <cables> jisatsu__, cat file1 file2 file3 > outputfile
[07:21] <luisgmarine> Och4, meh call of duty, I'm not sure how to install a multi-disc game when Ihave extracted its contents to seperate folders
[07:21] <jisatsu__> cables: is it binary safe?
[07:21] <Assassin`> i just started ubuntu yesturday
[07:21] <cables> jisatsu__, it doesn't care whether it's a binary or text
[07:22] <jisatsu__> cables: ok, cool :) thanks
[07:22] <Assassin`> linux in general actually
[07:22] <Assassin`> i have no idea how to do anything really
[07:22] <luisgmarine> intelikey, sounds easy enough
[07:22] <cables> Assassin`, as far as I can tell, you've made no effort at all to look at the document I sent you. If you have a specific question regarding it, we can help. Otherwise, it's just too general.
[07:23] <Assassin`> well well do you want me to ask you question by question??
[07:23] <billy> Assassin`: check out the lessons at www.linux.org
[07:23] <intelikey> well i've been on the wiki and i've been on the forums    i've not found anything telling me that linux and nvidia support my agp riva128 nvidia card.    and the module wont insert so i guess i'm SOL        modprobe nvidia   >>> FATAL: Error inserting nvidia_legacy (/lib/modules/2.6.15-28-386/volatile/nvidia_legacy.ko): No such device
[07:23] <cables> Assassin`, yes, that would be great. If you don't ask me any questions, I won't know what you need to know.
[07:23] <Assassin`> no direct support please omg
[07:23] <Assassin`> how can i find quake
[07:23] <cables> !quake | Assassin`, read this
[07:23] <ubotu> Assassin`, read this: Quake runs natively under Ubuntu - See http://zerowing.idsoftware.com/linux/quake4/ for details
[07:24] <IntuitiveNipple> luis: the key is install the new OS into one of the new partitions and verify it can work with the moved apps, BEFORE you delete the old partition(s)/OS. The final step is then to move the new OS partition to the start of the disk so you can expand it.
[07:24] <Assassin`> i just switched over to ubuntu and the only thing that i know is sudo apt-get
[07:24] <anathematic> nyone know if swat is installed defaulty with ubuntu server 7.04?
[07:24] <intelikey> doesn't matter i don't use a gui anyway.   just wanted everything working that could work.
[07:24] <cables> Assassin`, everything you need is there. Just read it, and if you run into any problems following the directions, ask.
[07:24] <intelikey> later folks.
[07:24] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: I always recommend creating separate disk partitions for /boot / /home and /var to make things easier for the future
[07:25] <Assassin`> bare with me please :)
[07:25] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, I think I'm going to try that, the only thing I'm afraid is that when Id o that, I might not set the proper file sizes for each one and down the road run out of room :\
[07:25] <Assassin`> umm quake 3
[07:25] <Assassin`> ?
[07:26] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, For now I'm going to keep my music/games/porno on another partition, this way I can install whatever I want without loosing anything
[07:26] <bimberi> anathematic: it's on the CD, not sure if it's installed by default though
[07:26] <IntuitiveNipple> well the trick is, when you begin, shrink the existing partition as small as you can
[07:26] <anathematic> ohdamnit irc is being buggy
[07:26] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: Good plan
[07:26] <Och4> luisgmarine, do you know what a private server?
[07:26] <cables> Assassin`, you asked where to get it, and I sent you a link. Read what's in the link, THEN ask specific questions.
[07:26] <anathematic> 2 secodns i can't read that answer i just know someone said my name
[07:26] <anathematic> ok
[07:26] <luisgmarine> Och4, what was that?
[07:26] <bimberi> anathematic: it's on the CD, not sure if it's installed by default though
[07:26] <anathematic> woo i can see
[07:26] <Assassin`> not quake 4 quake 3
[07:26] <anathematic> bimberi:  okay i'll lok up installing it now
[07:27] <anathematic> bimberi:  should it install by default with samba?
[07:27] <bimberi> anathematic: 'sudo apt-get install swat'
[07:27] <bimberi> anathematic: idk sorry
[07:28] <anathematic> :) thanks
[07:28] <Assassin`> O_o
[07:28] <bimberi> np :)
[07:28] <cables> Assassin`, I don't see anything on how to install Quake 3 on Ubuntu, sorry.
[07:28] <Assassin`> im not trying to be an a**
[07:28] <Assassin`> sorry
[07:28] <Assassin`> how long has everyone here been ubuntuing
[07:29] <ricafrj> about 2 months
[07:29] <ricafrj> at least me
[07:29] <cables> About a year
[07:29] <nownott> when i try to install on latitude c600 i get an error hdc tmout waiting for dma
[07:29] <Assassin`> well i heard alot of n00bies come here
[07:29] <duffyd__> actually, just further to my issue with getting my system to recognise entries in my /etc/host file - I am using a ppp authenticated adsl connection and this may be influencing my system being able to recognise entries in my /etc/hosts file - would this be true?
[07:29] <nownott> any ideas on a solution for this
[07:29] <Assassin`> not many pros
[07:29] <dad> what is the best dvd ripping software for linux
[07:29] <Assassin`> Not being rude at all either
[07:29] <Assassin`> cause i sux
[07:30] <cables> Assassin`, there are a few pros... a lot of inexperienced people can still help out by using the bot or telling people what they know.
[07:30] <cables> dad, try AcidRip
[07:30] <Lapinux> there are alot actually, they just might not be on right now
[07:30] <dad> thank you
[07:30] <Assassin`> like directing to a link
[07:30] <ub12> Assassin`, We try and help we were all newbies once
[07:30] <Och4> luisgmarine, im on a private server.  it should work
[07:30] <Assassin`> i could find that but i come here for support :)
[07:31] <luisgmarine> Och4, oh, do you happen to know how to install a multi disk game, from extracted files?
[07:31] <nownott> no ideas for dma timout?
[07:31] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: usually you run the installer in one folder and it "knows" to look for other files relative to its parent folder
[07:32] <cjae_> why does streamtuner start crackling ??
[07:32] <Meshezabeel> how can I make a modification to ubuntu and repack it into an installation disc?
 Assassin`, We try and help we were all newbies once
[07:32] <Assassin`> 
[07:32] <Assassin`> true
[07:32] <cjae_> works great for like hour then sucks
[07:32] <Assassin`> i just wanted to know where i can download it
[07:33] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, I don't exactly understand
[07:33] <Assassin`> i'll bb another day
[07:33] <ub12> Assassin`, Have you tried "apt-cache search quake"
[07:33] <Assassin`> no i don't know commands
[07:33] <Assassin`> or much at all
[07:33] <Assassin`> and with drinking
[07:33] <Assassin`> lol
[07:33] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, I just have a folder named Call of Duty, and inside are two folders named CD-1 and CD-2
[07:33] <Assassin`> i appreciate what you guys do tho
[07:33] <Assassin`> its great
[07:33] <Och4> luisgmarine, what ya mean by extracted file?  like in a zip file?
[07:34] <luisgmarine> Och4, no, I take the games disc and extract it to my PC
[07:34] <chamunks> hey can someone direct me to where i would go to get help for my ulamp server i need to enable OpenSSL so i can use gmail with phpbb2
[07:34] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: you could convert the 2 folders into ISO images and then mount them so the OS thinks they're real CDs
[07:34] <luisgmarine> call it illegal w/e but it keeps me from worrying about having the darn cd around me all the time
[07:34] <cbs> how do I copy files to my /usr/lib/mozilla/plugins/ directory?
[07:35] <IntuitiveNipple> cbs: use the "cp" command
[07:35] <billy> cbs: you can copy and paste in Nautilus.
[07:35] <Och4> luisgmarine, extract?  install?  your logic isn't making sense.
[07:35] <luisgmarine> Och4, nvm
[07:35] <IntuitiveNipple> cbs: You may need to use "sudo cp" to have the correct permissions
[07:36] <robbie_crash>  I cannot get my resolution to display at my monitor's native setting of 1280*1024. I've got it stated in my xorg.conf, I've followed all the walk throughs I can find, and still I'm stuck at 1280*960. I know the card is capable of displaying at 1280*1024, but it won't. I'm using ubuntu Feisty, with the latest nvidia drivers. Anyone have any ideas? I've tried asking in #nvidia, but nobody is ever there.
[07:36] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, how do I mount two of them together though?
[07:36] <schighschagh> How can I get wine to work with DirectX on Ubuntu x64?
[07:36] <compengi> schighschagh, directx? O.o
[07:36] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, the installer asks me to insert CD2, but how does it knwo where to look?
[07:36] <Och4> luisgmarine, friends.  i've installed game with multiple disc, but i guess i don
[07:37] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: Well as they'd both be virtual it is possible, but if you want to emulate a real CD player then you could mount #1, let it run, then when asked for the 2nd CD unmount #1 and mount #2
[07:37] <Och4> don't know anything then
[07:37] <cbs> intuitivenipple: awesome, thanks
[07:37] <schighschagh> compengi, I'm trying to install some of my Windows games.
[07:37] <compengi> schighschagh, you can't :)
[07:37] <jrr> where can i easily see what port gnome VNC uses? netstat shows multiple connections.
[07:37] <schighschagh> compengi, Are you sure? o.O
[07:37] <compengi> schighschagh, just wine the installed game
[07:38] <fluvvell> my desktop which I just upgraded to Feisty, changes its main eth from eth0 to eth1 whenever it comes out of suspend mode! Where can I go to sort this out? It comes up with a mac address exactly the reverse of its normal mac address!
[07:38] <schighschagh> compengi, It doesn't run.
[07:38] <jrr> what game are you dealing with?
[07:38] <IntuitiveNipple> jrr: VNC generally uses 5800 and 5900 (for HTTP) i think
[07:38] <fluvvell> and back to eth0 on the next suspend-recover
[07:38] <IntuitiveNipple> fluvvell: That sounds cool :D
[07:38] <jrr> IntuitiveNipple: one of the connections is indeed 5900. thanks.
[07:38] <compengi> schighschagh, DirectX is a 100% microsoft and made for windows it needs alot of dll files and stuff to run which wine can't
[07:38] <IntuitiveNipple> fluvvell: Is it a wireless ethernet or a wired?
[07:38] <schighschagh> jrr, I've tried a few RTS so far including Age of Empires II and StarCraft.
[07:39] <fluvvell> IntuitiveNipple:  Yeah! it is kindov, but I'm used to setting stuff in interfaces and not have programs stuff with it.  Its  a wired network
[07:39] <compengi> schighschagh, which games you are trying to run
[07:39] <jrr> schighschagh: how's SC?
[07:39] <compengi> oh
[07:39] <jrr> when i tried it under wine like 4 years ago it ran well
[07:39] <jrr> then a new version later choked
[07:39] <IntuitiveNipple> fluvvell: That sounds like a bug - I can't imagine any circumstance where the MAC should be mis-reported
[07:39] <compengi> !games | schighschagh
[07:39] <ubotu> schighschagh: Information about games on Ubuntu can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Games and http://www.icculus.org/lgfaq/gamelist.php and ubuntugames.org
[07:39] <anathematic> what's an easy way to delete everything in a file using GNU nano?
[07:39] <Assassin`> 666
[07:39] <fluvvell> IntuitiveNipple, I haven't figured out what avahi does yet either, but I think its involved somewhere
[07:39] <jrr> anathematic: hold down ctrl+w for a long long time?
[07:40] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, I'm just going to use the real cd's, lol
[07:40] <IntuitiveNipple> fluvvell: http://avahi.org/
[07:40] <schighschagh> compengi, ubotu, Hey, Diablo II works!
[07:40] <anathematic> jrr: isn't ctrl +  w search?
[07:40] <jrr> arejay: make that ctrl+k
[07:40] <compengi> :)
[07:40] <fluvvell> IntuitiveNipple, yeah. I suspect some kind of bug but where to report it?  I've looked at avahi.org but there is - well - quite a bit of reading. It also seems more appropriate to a mobile computer.
[07:40] <jrr> arejay: i mean anathematic
[07:41] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: As long as it works, no point wasting time on it! I wasted this weekend solving a 'no sound' issue on 2 mobos with feisty. Turned out on one i'd forgotten to turn on the speakers, and on the other, 2 jumpers were missing from the mobo!
[07:41] <fluvvell> This is my desktop/server/mythtv box
[07:41] <jrr> anathematic: yes. i've been vim'ing for a little while now
[07:41] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, lmao, that's a common mistake!
[07:41] <jrr> fluvvell: mythtv FTW
[07:41] <mantice> Can some one please help me ? My Camera will not work with ubuntu
[07:41] <jrr> fluvvell: do you hd?
[07:41] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, you run 32-bit or 64-bit?
[07:41] <anathematic> jrr:  haha thanks this is quicker than the back space ;)
[07:41] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: Not for me, it ain't!!
[07:41] <billy> mantice: has it ever worked?
[07:41] <mantice> Yeah
[07:41] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: these were old 32-bit machines
[07:42] <fluvvell> jrr, sorry ?
[07:42] <mantice> It worked the third time I tred it.
[07:42] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, I'm afraid to make the leap
[07:42] <IntuitiveNipple> I'm about to try 64-bit on a new Vaio
[07:42] <jrr> in my experience, 64 linux is less fun
[07:42] <jrr> fluvvell: HD. high-def.
[07:42] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, I just don't want to loose all this data!  Good 40GB worth of games, music and such
[07:42] <billy> mantice: if you wait after a "camera found" window pops up, does a second "camera found" window pop up?
[07:42] <mantice> Yes it does.
[07:42] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: I ordered it over the weekend so i shall be having fun installing Feisty on it and then getting the preinstalled Vista to run via VMPlayer :)
[07:43] <fluvvell> jrr, oh no no, not at this stage.  Maybe in the future, but upgrading from edgy killed my backend so I've got to fix it first.
[07:43] <billy> mantice: then don't touch the first window.  it's a bug.  mine does the same thing.  just wait for the second window.
[07:43] <jrr> when going linux 64, be preared to lose most proprietery binary support (flash plugin, etc) excepting nvidia, as they don't suck
[07:43] <mantice> Im using KDE. btw billy
[07:43] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: I'm so used to all that stuff nowadays - I move resize delete create partitions all the time
[07:43] <jrr> fluvvell: i've been playing with myth, but have yet to get it to the point where i'll use it regularly
[07:43] <fluvvell> jrr, and FTW ?
[07:43] <srixon> Hello, I cannot install the nvidia drivers im getting an error saying "You are currently Running an X Server, please turn this off" how would i turn that off?
[07:43] <billy> mantice: i use gnome. probably the same bug though.
[07:43] <jrr> FTW = 'for teh win' which is an internetism
[07:44] <fluvvell> jrr. Its got heaps of potential
[07:44] <billy> srixon: sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[07:44] <IntuitiveNipple> It's a myth :p
[07:44] <mantice> I dont have second windows poping up
[07:44] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, can both ubuntu versions use the same swap partition?
[07:44] <luisgmarine> instead of having to create two swap partitions for 32-bit and 64-bit?
[07:44] <jrr> fluvvell: i have my cable box plugged in w/ firewire, and what's killing me is that all the channels i care about are encrypted
[07:44] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: Yes, I believe so
[07:45] <IntuitiveNipple> luisgmarine: As *long* as you're not trying to run one OS using virtualisation at the same time
[07:45] <fluvvell> jrr, arrrrgh. Yeah well free to air digital is coming to NZ, and I hope to pick up a dish at some stage.
[07:45] <jrr> fluvvell: afaik, myth has little to know dish support
[07:45] <jrr> which dish net you looking at?
[07:46] <fluvvell> oh, its freeview
[07:46] <fluvvell> jrr, very new.
[07:46] <mantice> digikam fails to connected to the cam
[07:46] <fluvvell> jrr, but don't know much more than having looked at it in favourite electronics shop
[07:47] <luisgmarine> IntuitiveNipple, nah
[07:47] <billy> how do you change your nick in irssi?
[07:47] <jrr> billy: /nick?
[07:47] <jrr> or mbe /name
[07:47] <gruelius> I have absolutely rooted my grub setup, how can i get ubuntu to reinstall grub without wiping my install?
[07:47] <dawn_chorus> jrr: right on.
[07:47] <jrr> dawn_chorus: you got it! wtg.
[07:48] <mantice> So what do I do about this camera and linux??? buy windows ... ?
[07:48] <jrr> gruelius: good question. when upgrading from edgy to feisty i ran `apt-get dist-upgrade` only once and grub was borked.
[07:48] <jrr> i wound up reinstalling
[07:49] <gruelius> sigh
[07:49] <defcon> hey im having problems when I scan my work network with nmap my dsl disconects
[07:49] <defcon> any idea?
[07:49] <defcon> im using ubuntu
[07:49] <jrr> mantice: when you plug it in, it doesn't automagically work?
[07:49] <defcon> weird problem
[07:49] <gruelius> i dont want to do that cause i spent so bloody long getting packages to compile stuff
[07:49] <mantice> It pops up
[07:49] <defcon> never had that with any other os...
[07:49] <mantice> but it cant read any thing on it
[07:49] <x1nn> My fresh install of ubuntu keeps freezing up, (mouse moves but nothing responds, key commands don't respond) I have ubuntu only on my toshiba laptop, I posted my log file after a crash to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20726/  but I have no idea what I'm looking at with the log. Can anyone help.
[07:50] <defcon> any network specialists here
[07:50] <jrr> x1nn: ctrl+alt+f2 will switch to a text console, if that works
[07:50] <mantice> I go to root and it says nothings there
[07:50] <jrr> see if that responds, which well at least further indicate the severity fo your crash
[07:50] <dad> is acidrip better then k9copy?
[07:50] <defcon> my dsl keeps disconnecting and I have to wait for another ip when I scan with nmap
[07:50] <defcon> is it a problem with ubuntu
[07:50] <defcon> !nmap
[07:50] <moDumass> hey all, is there a way to ban an ip address form msging me?
[07:50] <x1nn> jrr: do you mean after a crash?
[07:51] <defcon> firewall the ip
[07:51] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nmap - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:51] <jrr> x1nn: the crash state you describe preserves mouse movement, yes?
[07:51] <moDumass> im using gaim, and i blocked and removed this person
[07:51] <tracy> hi everyone. i have a dell inspiron e1505 with ubuntu. i have a problem with the suspend. when i close the laptop lid it will suspend, but not resume. i found a good forum post, but what it says to do, i have already done. would anyone be interested in helping me?
[07:51] <x1nn> jrr: yes
[07:51] <Kassah> I'm having trouble with the roaming mode on my wireless card... it sees the wireless networks.. but when I try to connect to them... it fails... if I do a ifconfig eth1 down && ifconfig eth1 up && dhclient eth1 it works just fine
[07:51] <moDumass> now sneeky sneeky theres a new contact in my contact list, so i do a google search on the name
[07:51] <GMWeezel> Are there any file recovery programs in the repositories?
[07:51] <jrr> x1nn: i'm just curious if switching to a text console will still work. i'm not sure it will help you =\
[07:51] <mantice> I also get stalled on my kde window status bar.
[07:52] <moDumass> \and i find a debate between the name i banned and the new name on some forum somewhere, now i think they are both the same person pitching the same opinion
[07:52] <compengi> !kernel
[07:52] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[07:52] <x1nn> jrr: I'll try it next time I crash, experiencing several crashes per hour
[07:52] <moDumass> how do i firewall this ip, and how do i find this ip?
[07:53] <atlex2> hello
[07:53] <jrr> frerik__: /me is jealous of your fios
[07:53] <IntuitiveNipple> moDumass: You mean firewall an IM user? You can't, there's never a direct connection, its all relayed through the presence server.
[07:54] <atlex2> would someone mind helping me set up wireless in my macbook?
[07:54] <atlex2> please message me
[07:54] <defcon> in ubuntu my dsl keeps disconnecting and I have to wait for another ip when I scan with nmap
[07:54] <defcon> how do I fix it
[07:54] <moDumass> darn, intuitivenipple is there anyway to stop them from seeing if i am online, can i set a "offline" response to any of their requests?
[07:54] <moDumass> im using gaim
[07:55] <atlex2> would someone with a macbook message me please
[07:55] <IntuitiveNipple> moDumass: You could set your contact list to private, so unless *you* have added someone they can't see you, then if they try adding you you can deny the request.
[07:56] <SuperQ> x1nn: I didn't see anything obviously wrong in your logs :(
[07:56] <atlex2> can anyone hear me?
[07:56] <SuperQ> atlex2: 10-4
[07:56] <atlex2> thanks
[07:56] <schighschagh> Where does wine keep whatever dll-s it keeps?

[07:57] <atlex2> core 2 duo
[07:57] <jrr> they could call it a 'newton'.  it'd sell like hotcackes.
[07:57] <moDumass> intuitivenipple, im trying to do that but i cant find any mention of the feature
[07:57] <Kassah> atlex2: what is your wireless card? or what laptop do you have?
[07:58] <atlex2> i have a macbook core 2 duo
[07:58] <pr0nGuy> can anyone explain to me in common parlance what the heck the Ndiswapper, tarballs, extracting, etc?
[07:58] <IntuitiveNipple> moDumass: Which IM network ? I know you an do it with MSN
[07:59] <x1nn> should I focus my attention on drivers?
[07:59] <moDumass> yeh can you do it with msn in gaim?
[07:59] <atlex2> my wireless works fine in windows and x but not in linux
[07:59] <lando> mantice: i wouldnt be able to help ya.. and it seems as if the rest are ignoring ya ... try #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:59] <Kassah> atlex2: do a lspci | grep 802
[07:59] <atlex2> im using wired right now
[08:00] <Kassah> see if that returns anything
[08:00] <atlex2> in terminal
[08:00] <Kassah> atlex2: or just lspci and look through the list to see if you see anything with wireless or 802.11
[08:00] <rollerskatejamms> Anybody know why I would have an /etc/group and an /etc/group- file?
[08:00] <IntuitiveNipple> atlex2: Do you have the PCI ID of the wireless device (from lspci) ?
[08:00] <atlex2> no meleitious intent i hip
[08:00] <atlex2> hope
[08:01] <Kassah> atlex2: what was that?
[08:01] <atlex2> what was that again
[08:01] <atlex2> the code
[08:01] <atlex2> or command
[08:01] <Kassah> atlex2: type in 'lspci'
[08:01] <Kassah> atlex2: and look for Wireless or 802.11
[08:02] <IntuitiveNipple> atlex2: try this at a shell prompt: lspci | grep 'Atheros'
[08:02] <atlex2> alright
[08:02] <chamunks> anyone know about lamp servers and tls ??
[08:02] <chamunks> anyone know about lamp servers and tls encryption??
[08:02] <atlex2> would people mind if i just paste a lot in
[08:03] <Madpilot> atlex2, use a pastebin
[08:03] <IntuitiveNipple> atlex2: Use a pastebin
[08:03] <Madpilot> ubotu, pastebin | atlex2

[08:04] <drofdarb> What is the preferred method up updating the package database by cron?
[08:04] <cables> drofdarb, you could just add a cron job that does apt-get update
[08:04] <atlex2> this is what it gave me
[08:04] <cables> Does anyone here use Desktop Data Manager?
[08:04] <IntuitiveNipple> atlex2: Yes, you have the device referred to in my two links above
[08:04] <TakeOut{u}> if i remember correctly there is an apt config file that asks you how often you want to check for updates
[08:04] <atlex2> do people want to message me privately
[08:04] <Kassah> IntuitiveNipple: any reason why a ndiswrapper driver wouldn't work with the network discovery thing that's on the panel by default?
[08:04] <atlex2> in order to help
[08:05] <atlex2> which was that nipple?
[08:05] <IntuitiveNipple> Kassah: wireless networking is such a mish-mash anything is possible!
[08:05] <cables> drofdarb, in Software Sources, you can set how often you want it to update itself, and if it finds any new versions of packages it'll notify you.
[08:05] <atlex2> sorry it goes by quickly
[08:05] <IntuitiveNipple> atlex2: scroll back up, and visit the two URLs I pasted
[08:06] <Bambie> does ubuntu have torrent thing?
[08:06] <IntuitiveNipple> atlex2: "Network controller: Atheros Communications, Inc. Unknown device 0024 (rev 01)"
[08:06] <drofdarb> cables: is Software Sources a desktop thing?
[08:06] <cables> Bambie, yep
[08:06] <Kassah> Bambie: yes
[08:06] <cables> drofdarb, it's in Gnome
[08:06] <cables> drofdarb, oh, lol, ok
[08:06] <drofdarb> =)
[08:06] <IntuitiveNipple> Bambie: What do you mean by 'thing' ?  Try Azureus
[08:06] <atlex2> ive tried rapper
[08:06] <Bambie> can anyone tell me where it is please? i'm newb to ubuntu/linux.
[08:06] <cables> drofdarb, in that case, adding apt-get update to cron should probably work
[08:06] <atlex2> its confuzleing
[08:06] <cables> Bambie, Applications>Internet>BItTorrent
[08:07] <cables> Bambie, Azureus is pretty crashy on my system at least, I'd steer clear if I were you.
[08:07] <IntuitiveNipple> atlex2: Those bug reports indicate that support for the wireless isn't available
[08:07] <drofdarb> cables: okay, thanks bud
[08:07] <kahrytan> cables: Then use utorrent
[08:07] <Bambie> cables i dont torrent on app internet
[08:07] <Bambie> i just checked it
[08:07] <Kassah> IntuitiveNipple: well is there any configs I can look at to maybe solve the problem? I'm able to connect to the network... but it doesn't seem to like DHCPing the address... if I use dhclient manually it works
[08:07] <atlex2> that sucks how would i compile a driver kernal
[08:07] <atlex2> or somtin
[08:07] <TakeOut{u}> use apt-cache search
[08:08] <TakeOut{u}> or synaptic to search for torrent applications
[08:08] <cables> kahrytan, I used utorrent for a while in wine but now I use Deluge
[08:08] <atlex2> or am i just sool
[08:08] <cables> Bambie, right click on Applications and hit Edit Menus
[08:08] <Bambie> what torrrent should i search for? what do you prefer?
[08:08] <cables> Bambie, see if you can find BitTorrent and check it off since it doesn't seem to be appearing in the menu.
[08:08] <IntuitiveNipple> Kassah: I have no idea, sorry. Google is your friend... sometimes!
[08:08] <Bambie> alright, thanks
[08:08] <atlex2> so basicaly im screwed untill they decide to make a driver for me?
[08:09] <cables> Bambie, I like deluge, you can get it here: http://deluge-torrent.org/
[08:09] <Pupeno> Is there some way to change the label of a vfat filesystem?
[08:09] <IntuitiveNipple> atlex2: If you *READ* those bugs properly you might find some good news!
[08:09] <kahrytan> cables:  Deluge is command-line?
[08:09] <RAOF> cables, Bambie: Or "deluge-torrent" in add/remove
[08:09] <cables> kahrytan, no
[08:09] <cables> RAOF, it's not in the repos
[08:09] <kahrytan> cables: does it support DHT w/ encryption?
[08:09] <atlex2> via auto update?

[08:13] <RAOF> cables: Maybe it's currently in a state of flux while being backported to Fesity?
[08:13] <pRrp> hey, what makes xubuntu able to detect my ipod shuffle automatically in xfce env? i plugged it up and wham.. it was mounted in /media/IPOD
[08:13] <cables> RAOF, why was it removed from feisty?
[08:13] <Pupeno> Ranpha1: Take a look at this: http://pupeno.com/2006/12/17/encrypted-home-in-ubuntu-or-kubuntu-or-debian/
[08:13] <Pupeno> Ranpha1: it is not exactly what you want, but more.
[08:13] <cables> pRrp, magicalnessification
[08:14] <pRrp> i've never seen linux do that so easy.. last time i had to add to fstab and do all kinda junk to make it mount.. in xubuntu it's all mac-like as in "it just works"
[08:14] <kahrytan> cables: deluge looks nice. I might just try it
[08:14] <pRrp> cables: haha. yeah, but like.. what mod/daemon allowed that hotpluggery magic?
[08:14] <cables> pRrp, probably something to do with HAL, but that's just a guess
[08:15] <cables> RAOF, why would it be in edgy-backports but not any feisty repos?
[08:15] <Ranpha1> Pupeno well that part i get but Luks uses a 128bit key by default. I can chance this with cryptsetup -c ***** luksFormat /dev/sdb  but ik don't know what to put into the ****** area
[08:15] <pRrp> im wondering cause when i install gentoo next on a desktop (when i get money for one) i wanna make sure i config this magic on there
[08:16] <RAOF> cables: I have no idea.
[08:16] <cables> weird packagingness...
[08:16] <cables> -ification?
[08:16] <RAOF> cables: As I said, maybe it's been accidentally removed as a part of a backport.
[08:16] <kahrytan> cables: deluge is a backport
[08:16] <RAOF> kahrytan: But not in Feisty.  I installed it in Feisty when it *wasn't* a backport :)
[08:16] <kahrytan> cables in edgy
[08:17] <cables> kahrytan, it's not in Feisty right now at all, but they have a Feisty .deb on their site.
[08:17] <P__> hello
[08:17] <Bambie> cables can i paste you the search result for torrent in priv?
[08:17] <cables> Bambie, what search result?
[08:18] <RAOF> cables: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/deluge-torrent/+bug/105187
[08:18] <cables> Bambie, there's a torrent client built-in to Ubuntu, it should open when you doubleclick on a .torrent file.
[08:18] <P__> can someone help me with x configuration ? i have a 1440*900 flatscreen, i have installed the nvidia-glx-new driver, it works, i can use nvidia-settings to set the resolution, but each time i restart x i have to select the resolution again
[08:18] <Bambie> its hiding some where
[08:18] <Bambie> lol
[08:19] <cables> P__, start the computer, hit alt-f2, and see if doing "nvidia-settings -l" works (that's a lowercase l)
[08:19] <cables> P__, if it does, add it to your startup (System>Preferences>Sessions)
[08:20] <P__> i guess i can just shutdown x to test it, no need to restart
[08:20] <cables> P__, yeah
[08:20] <P__> ok i try that
[08:20] <rollerskatejamms> In feisty, whats the difference between linux-image-2.6.20-generic and linux-image-2.6.20-386
[08:20] <il-luzhin> can't can amarok to play files on my network.  'input plugin' error.  anyone help?
[08:20] <kaushal> Hi
[08:21] <mantice> does any one know how to get my digital camera to work ?
[08:21] <kaushal> What does DNS Search Path means
[08:21] <kaushal> Are there any online documents
[08:21] <shroomsky> hello
[08:21] <crimsun> rollerskatejamms: different config options.  Essentially, 386 doesn't support SMP but does support 486+.  generic supports SMP but requires at least a 586.
[08:21] <Wiseguy> hey guys, is it a bad idea to chmod -R 777 my windows share?
[08:21] <rollerskatejamms> crimsun, So generic is better if you have a modern PC.
[08:21] <shroomsky> i need help on how to detect a slave hard drive, message me if you know how to help.
[08:21] <TakeOut{u}> i believe its the path on which the DNS resolves the required hostname kaushal
[08:21] <crimsun> rollerskatejamms: that's the crux of the decision to use -generic by default, yes.
[08:22] <TakeOut{u}> whether it hits recursive dns servers, etc
[08:22] <pierre_> well no it doesnt, but i have another problem, if i close the session, i don't see the input fields for name and password on the gui logging screen..
[08:22] <pierre_> when i log again i mean
[08:22] <x1nn> Still looking for help: Multiple crashes per hour, this time after crash, I ctrl+alt+f2 weird thing happened on the screen, (looked similar to a bad vid card) I posted my new log after crash to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20758/
[08:23] <mantice> I dont want to go reinstall micro$oft to get some pictures of my camera :(
[08:23] <sapumal> what is the camera model?
[08:23] <SuperQ> x1nn: ahh.. I'm sorry I can't help you much with that
[08:23] <SuperQ> x1nn: but it sounds video card related
[08:23] <mantice> Powershot A430
[08:23] <shroomsky> my harddrive is FAT32, from a windows system, what do i do so that Xubuntu can detect it?
[08:23] <SuperQ> x1nn: (the garbage screen is nothing to be worried about when you ctrl-alt-f1)
[08:23] <SuperQ> (or f2)
[08:24] <IntuitiveNipple> shroomsky: nothing, it will be detected automatically
[08:24] <SuperQ> x1nn: you may want to select a backup video card driver
[08:24] <mantice> My camera is dectect automagicly but it dont work :(
[08:24] <sivaji> vm is installed and configured in my system still my browser says "missing plugins"
[08:24] <SuperQ> x1nn: if you're using nvidia, switch it to nv
[08:25] <sapumal> sorry no experience with Cannon
[08:25] <Ademan> can anyone try running prboom?   it crashes SOMETHING when i press fire in game (ctrl) and i have to ctrl+alt+f1 and killall -9 prboom   but then i'm ok again, anyone else have that problem? (anyone willing to try?)  If you're testing be sure to run it with the -window option, i lost my mouse if i don't do -window
[08:25] <Absens> what can I use to emulate a cd drive and mount the .iso for ubuntu-studio?
[08:25] <Myrtti> !iso | Absens
[08:25] <ubotu> Absens: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[08:25] <cables> Absens, why do you want to mount the ubuntu-studio ISO? What are you trying to do with it?
[08:26] <Patrick2> What's the difference between a ".so" and a ".so.2" file ?
[08:27] <Ademan> Patrick2: it's just a notation used for indicating versions
[08:27] <Absens> thanks
[08:27] <Patrick2> Ademan: Thanks :)
[08:28] <Ademan> np
[08:28] <TKD> holas
[08:28] <Patrick2> Ademan: So you could have a .so.3 (or a .so.N) file
[08:28] <Ademan> Patrick2: yep, that's my understanding
[08:28] <Patrick2> Ademan: Cheers
[08:28] <Ademan> and usually the one that's just .so is actually a symlink to one of the .so.N
[08:28] <x1nn> Where do I look to check my exact vid card?
[08:29] <Ademan> x1nn: lspci
[08:29] <Patrick2> Ademan: Indeed - I had a some instructions to create a sym link from /lib/libnss_winbind.so.2 to libnss_winbind.so
[08:29] <Patrick2> Ademan: Was curious to know why the different "extension"
[08:30] <crimsun> Patrick2: technically .so should be shipped only in libfoo-dev packages according to Debian Policy.  .so.X are shipped in respective non-dev libfoo packages.
[08:30] <crimsun> the mechanics behind it can be found in the Library Packaging Guide/Manual linked on netfort.co.jp.
[08:31] <Patrick2> crimsun: Interesting, thanks for this info
[08:31] <RAOF> Patrick2: the ".so.2" extension is basically meant to indicate that it's the "2"nd major version of the library (so you can have .so.1 & .so.2 installed in parallel, if you need an older library version for something)
[08:31] <crimsun> It is incorrect to manually create symlinks.  Install the -dev package.
[08:31] <Wiseguy> am i able to compile java programs with stock ubuntu? or do i need to install another package?
[08:31] <Patrick2> RAOF: And you just update the sym link depending on which version you want
[08:32] <crimsun> Wiseguy: some java programs can be compiled using gcj
[08:32] <cables> Wiseguy, sun-java6-jdk is the development package for sun java 6
[08:32] <RAOF> Patrick2: No, binaries should link to .so.2 or .so.1
[08:32] <air23> can anyone help me in a private conversation
[08:32] <Patrick2> A much better system than in Windows with their "side by side" SxS install
[08:32] <il-luzhin> help with amarok playing media off internal network?
[08:32] <sivaji>  menu is hidden in konqueror i cant restore
[08:32] <cables> !ask | air23
[08:32] <ubotu> air23: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:32] <Patrick2> RAOF: OK
[08:32] <cables> air23, you should ask here, and whoever can help you will respond.
[08:32] <RAOF> Patrick2: But if you're *building*, then you probably want to build against the latest version (or fix your source :)), so the "libfoo.so" symlink should go to the latest version of libfoo
[08:33] <air23> ok
[08:33] <RAOF> Patrick2: If there's a program that requires a libfoo.so file, that's a bug (I belive), 'cause it's linked against the wrong file.
[08:34] <air23> I tried installing ubuntu and my x server failed to load, so i modified the /ect/X11/xorg.conf to change my video card, i then save the modifications, but then how do i run the installation again
[08:34] <Patrick2> ROAF: The libnss_winbind.so file was created by building Samba from source. To integrate this with NSS I needed to create a symlink from libnss_winbind.so.2 to libnss_winbind.so
[08:35] <BVBBQ> ok i have a removable hard drive that is being problematic and says its read only. can i fix this. or should i reformat.
[08:35] <m0> Helo
[08:35] <shroomsky> when i do certain commands in Terminal, it says that only root can do that. what do i do?
[08:35] <m0> Can I mount an smb location?
[08:35] <Madpilot> BVBBQ, what format is the removable drive in?
[08:35] <RawSewage> How do I fix it so all windows open up maximized
[08:35] <BVBBQ> Madpilot, not sure.
[08:36] <Patrick2> shroomsky: become root
[08:36] <m0> I have a location smb://server-pc/scripts, can I mount that to one of my drives?
[08:36] <shroomsky> how do i become root? when i installed xubuntu it only asked for a username and password
[08:36] <RAOF> !root > shroomsky
[08:36] <Madpilot> shroomsky, put sudo in front of the command, then use your own password
[08:36] <Patrick2> shroomsky: Good question. sudo
[08:36] <shroomsky> ok thanks!
[08:36] <sapumal> sudo su
[08:36] <sapumal> and give your password
[08:36] <cables> shroomsky, if you want to become root for an extended period of time, use sudo -i
[08:36] <cables> (not sudo su)
[08:37] <Madpilot> sapumal, 'sudo su' isn't needed or recommended - it defeats the whole point of using sudo...
[08:37] <Patrick2> shroomsky: Yes sudo su is a good command to remember. It will give you a root shell (whereas just sudo command will execute the command a drop you back to your standard account)
[08:37] <BVBBQ> Madpilot, can you tell me how to go about taking care of this. i need it to be able to work on both ubuntu and windows machines. just for storage.
[08:37] <shroomsky> thanks
[08:37] <shroomsky> it worked
[08:37] <cables> shroomsky, it's not a good command to remember. Remember sudo -i.
[08:37] <defcon> why when I synscan with nmap my dsl gets disconnected
[08:37] <cables> shroomsky, sudo -i is the correct way.
[08:37] <air23> I tried installing ubuntu and my x server failed to load, so i modified the /ect/X11/xorg.conf to change my video card, i then save the modifications, but then how do i run the installation again
[08:38] <sapumal> Madpilot: you are correct. But it does the trick
[08:38] <RawSewage> Im tired of having to resize my window after I open every app.  How do I set it to save last window size
[08:38] <sivaji>  it neccessary to have 64bit supporting os for amd processor or normal os is enough
[08:38] <Madpilot> BVBBQ, if it's a Windows removable, it's likely in NTFS. You can read NTFS from Linux, but not always reliably. You might want to reformat the drive to FAT32, if it's got to work everywhere.
[08:38] <BVBBQ> ok i have a removable hard drive that is being problematic and says its read only. can i fix this. or should i reformat.
[08:38] <Patrick2> If you don't have the root account enabled (i.e. no password set) how else do you get a root shell ?
[08:38] <cables> air23, the installation of what?
[08:38] <defcon> yo
[08:38] <RAOF> sivaji: No, you can use either i386 or AMD64 on an AMD.
[08:38] <air23> ubuntu
[08:38] <Tarkus> anyone know if theres anything similar to adobe flash? for linux? something to create flash content?
[08:38] <cables> Patrick2, sudo -i
[08:38] <Madpilot> Patrick2, sudo -i
[08:38] <defcon> anyone here familiar with ubuntu and dsl
[08:38] <tondar> how do I change the gdm and splash theme ?
[08:38] <BVBBQ> Madpilot, ok good. how do i do that?
[08:38] <defcon> why when I synscan with nmap my dsl gets disconnected?????
[08:38] <defcon> cables,  u know?
[08:39] <cables> !dsl | defcon, ubotu is
[08:39] <ubotu> defcon, ubotu is: Setting up an ADSL/PPPoE connection? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[08:39] <Patrick2> -i == interactive ? (On a Windows box at the moment :-)
[08:39] <defcon> cables its already set up
[08:39] <Och4> i need help, but i don't know how to compile. the 1
[08:39] <defcon> but I keep getting disconnected when I scan
[08:39] <andrea> how to install kbfx on kubuntu?...
[08:39] <Absens> Why is firestarter blocking connections from deluge when I've added torrent ports to the whitelist already?
[08:39] <sivaji> RAOF : i could see separate package for amd processor
[08:39] <Och4> i need help, but i don't know how to compile. the !compile, doesn't do anything for me.  i need to compile this file "wine_mod_fixed(2).tar.gz"  it's for an tutorial
[08:39] <cables> defcon, I don't know how to help you with DSL, sorry
[08:40] <defcon> ok
[08:40] <andrea> how to install kbfx on kubuntu?...
[08:40] <Patrick2> From man sudo  -i  The -i (simulate initial login)
[08:40] <RAOF> sivaji: Yes, and you can use either the i386 or the AMD64 version.  Although you probably want the i386 one.
[08:40] <andrea> how to install kbfx on kubuntu?...
[08:40] <andrea> how to install kbfx on kubuntu?...
[08:40] <Patrick2> How to "sudo -i" and "sudo su" differ ?
[08:40] <RawSewage> Im tired of having to resize my window after I open every app.  How do I set it to save last window size
[08:41] <RAOF> RawSewage: You don't (at least in Gnome), apps need to save their own state.
[08:41] <cables> Patrick2, one's correct, one's not... no idea why...
[08:41] <m0> can I mount an smb:// path to my filesystem ??
[08:41] <andrea> how to install kbfx on kubuntu?...
[08:41] <RawSewage> RAOF, none of them do though
[08:41] <cables> m0, yes, hold on a sec
[08:42] <Patrick2> cables: Perhaps /etc/profile etc are not sourced when you do a sudo su
[08:42] <Madpilot> Patrick2, the -i gets sudo to keep logging (one reason sudo is useful); sudo su bypasses the logging
[08:42] <BVBBQ> How do i reformat a removable hardrive?
[08:42] <wauwau> which channel is the right one for questions about beryl ?
[08:42] <Patrick2> i.e. updates /var/log
[08:42] <m0> cables: i tried mounting it says special device does not exist
[08:42] <cables> !effects | wauwau
[08:42] <Patrick2> wtmp
[08:42] <ubotu> wauwau: For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects.
[08:42] <cables> m0, hold on, I'm gettin you a guide
[08:42] <m0> cables: oh boy i hope it is just one line hehe
[08:42] <cables> m0, here, this worked for me: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently?highlight=%28Windows%29
[08:43] <cables> m0, far from it lol
[08:43] <Madpilot> BVBBQ, sorry, I was just looking info up for  you - never used a full-on removable drive myself... (thumbdrives are almost always FAT32 already)
[08:43] <calliope> well thats wacky
[08:43] <calliope> well thats wackier
[08:43] <mjancaitis> Hey, everybody - having an issue with grub on the feisty alternate install disc, it won't offer me any options to install to a floppy as I'd like to. Any help?
[08:43] <Patrick2> Thank you all!
[08:43] <Bambie> how do i run bittorrent from command line cause i dont see it on App/internet
[08:43] <Kassah> is there a way to route the system beep through the sound card?
[08:43] <Bambie> it is installed
[08:43] <starz> !tty
[08:43] <ubotu> To get to the tty terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login).
[08:43] <starz> argh
[08:43] <sapumal> The purpose of sudo it to give access to certain root previleages. But both sudo su and sudo -i give full access.
[08:43] <starz> anyone have experience fixing blank tty's ??
[08:43] <Myrtti> Bambie: btdownloadgui.bittorrent
[08:43] <air23> I tried installing ubuntu and i get: failed to start X server (your graphical interface)? anybody know?
[08:44] <cables> Bambie, I told you to right click on Applications and hit Edit Menus and find it, and check it off, so you can access it from your menu.
[08:44] <m0> Is it true that smbfs is depricated? According to [WWW]  a blog post by Joey Stanford we need to use CIFS instead of smbfs!
[08:44] <starz> Myrtti, btlaunchmanycurses is far superior
[08:44] <RAOF> m0: Yup.
[08:44] <cables> m0, I never heard that
[08:44] <m0> hmm
[08:44] <mjancaitis> air, sounds like you need to install some graphics drivers
[08:44] <m0> So what should I use
[08:44] <Myrtti> starz: yes, but she didn't tell more specs ;-)
[08:44] <RAOF> m0: Although you can still use smbfs if you like.
[08:44] <cables> sapumal, I'm sure you can disable -i/su in sudoers
[08:45] <air23> how can i do that?
[08:45] <m0> RAOF: is it easy to set up CIFS?
[08:45] <m0> RAOF: compared to SMBFS
[08:45] <BVBBQ> .... how can this be so difficult?
[08:45] <cables> m0, I don't see a problem with smbfs for now...
[08:45] <RAOF> m0: I belive that it's the same as smbfs.  CIFS is what windows file sharing is called now.
[08:46] <Och4> i need help, but i don't know how to compile. the !compile, doesn't do anything for me.  i need to compile this file "wine_mod_fixed(2).tar.gz"  it's for an tutorial
[08:46] <m0> http://joey.ubuntu-rocks.org/blog/2007/04/25/resolution-to-mounting-samba-shares-dont-use-smbfs/
[08:46] <RAOF> m0: If smbfs works for you, then that's fine.  Use smbfs
[08:47] <m0> okay will do right now
[08:47] <m0> is smbfs installed by default on ubuntu
[08:47] <cables> m0, it's in the repos
[08:47] <shirish> guys how can I find how much total space is occupied in the present directory on the CLI
[08:47] <cables> m0, follow the guide, they tell you everything
[08:47] <cables> shirish, du -s .
[08:47] <bayziders> If I wanted to ask a question about general pc hardware what channel should I go to?
[08:47] <shirish> cables: thanx
[08:48] <cables> shirish, hold on a sec
[08:48] <shirish> cables: sure
[08:48] <cables> shirish, du -hs . is better
[08:48] <cables> shirish, in fact, you don't even need the . so just use du -hs :)
[08:49] <shroomsky> hm, im already root, but when i access /etc/fstab it says permission denied
[08:49] <cables> shroomsky, how are you trying to access it?
[08:49] <shroomsky> through terminal
[08:49] <shroomsky> i type /etc/fstab
[08:49] <cables> shroomsky, you can't just type /etc/fstab
[08:50] <cables> shroomsky, are you trying to edit fstab?
[08:50] <shroomsky> yep
[08:50] <IntuitiveNipple> shroomsky: you can't do that, you should do "cat /etc/fstab" to view it
[08:50] <cables> shroomsky, do you want to do it in a graphical editor?
[08:50] <shroomsky> so i can mount my FAT 32 harddrive
[08:50] <shroomsky> yeah
[08:50] <shroomsky> as long as i can mount my extra harddrive
[08:50] <cables> shroomsky, hit alt-f2 and type "gksudo gedit /etc/fstab"
[08:51] <shroomsky> do i need to convert my win95 FAT32 harddrive to a linux native?
[08:52] <shroomsky> yeah thats what i wondered too
[08:52] <shroomsky> it appears in my sudo fdisk
[08:52] <shroomsky> but not in cat /etc/fstab
[08:52] <cables> shroomsky, you don't have to convert anything
[08:52] <mjancaitis> Does the Feisty alternate install disc really give me no option on where to manually install grub?
[08:52] <RAOF> shroomsky: Are you using Gnome (Ubuntu) or KDE (Kubuntu)?
[08:52] <duffyd> hi, I'm pretty sure I've discovered a bug in ubuntu when you're using a ppp connection (that's my specific case anyway) and you put host entries in /etc/hosts - web browsers don't recognise these entries. In other words I can't override dns with entries in my /etc/hosts file
[08:52] <shroomsky> neither
[08:52] <cables> shroomsky, just because linux knows about it (fdisk -l) doesn't mean it'll mount it. That's why you need to add it to fstab.
[08:52] <shroomsky> im using xubuntu
[08:52] <Absens> can anyone help me configure firestarter to permit connections from deluge?
[08:53] <cables> shroomsky, ok, replace gedit with "mousepad"
[08:53] <crimsun> mjancaitis: err, it should.  The expert mode definitely does if you use grub with a supported FS (list) for /boot.
[08:53] <danny3793> how do i get into my nvidia settings?
[08:53] <danny3793> i need to change my resolution
[08:53] <shroomsky> ok
[08:53] <cables> danny3793, alt-f2 then nvidia-settings
[08:53] <shroomsky> cables: do you mind if i pm you?
[08:53] <danny3793> thank you, :D, i forgot how to get in there
[08:53] <cables> shroomsky, no problem, go ahead
[08:53] <shroomsky> im now in the fstab file
[08:54] <kraut> moin
[08:54] <cables> shroomsky, you can PM me because I'm unfiltered, but for future reference, you'll need to register to PM most people.
[08:54] <mjancaitis> crimsun: I've downloaded the AI disc, and ran through the install process, but unlike Edgy, there's no option for "Do you want to install grub here?"
[08:54] <mjancaitis> And when I try to go into rescue mode, there are options for installing grub and lilo, but no options on where to put it
[08:55] <mistone> how do I run a script when a cd is inserted ( before it gets mounted )
[08:55] <bayziders> Wow I just upgraded to 2 gigs of ram, this thing is beast O_O
[08:55] <mjancaitis> I'm going to try and download the desktop install disc and see if it has it correct
[08:55] <wauwau> which partitions should i best create for a normal laptop-version of feisty ?
[08:55] <Tylzen> Hi
[08:55] <kahrytan> Absens: It is on default settings, then it would allow it.
[08:55] <RAOF> wauwau: It's generally a good idea to make a "/", a "/home" and a "swap" partition.
[08:56] <shroomsky> hello
[08:56] <shroomsky> now that im in the fstab editor, how do i add an extra harddrive?
[08:56] <Tylzen> First time user of ubuntu here, last time I used Linux were with Mandrake 8.xx
[08:56] <shroomsky> should i copy whats written in sudo fdisk?
[08:56] <Tylzen> I could need some help with installing JAVA for my Firefox browser
[08:56] <shroomsky> example: /dev/hdb1
[08:56] <IdahoEv> apt problem:   i tried to install an experimental package which failed because the setup tried to access mysql with a pre-encoded password that doesn't match mine.    Now I can't uninstall it either, and I cannot use apt to install anything!  shell transcripts visible at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20759/
[08:57] <RAOF> wauwau: Depending on how much space you have, "/" should be about 5-10Gb, "swap" should be 512Mb->1Gb, and "/home" should be everything else
[08:57] <wauwau> raof: thanks - please tell me: which size would you give them on a 40gb hd ?
[08:58] <Ademan> i don't personally see the value of creating a /home partition personally, but i suppose it COULD help when you want to upgrade, or if you need to reinstall for whatever reason, i guess...
[08:58] <Tylzen> Anyone who would be so helpful and help med with installing JAVA for Mozilla Firefox, I tried, but I failed :)
[08:58] <cables> Tylzen, open a terminal please

[08:58] <Tylzen> done cables
[08:58] <TaylorT1293> wauwau: I gave swap 512 and /home the rest on my laptop same size
[08:58] <cables> Tylzen, put in "sudo aptitude install sun-java6-plugin"
[08:58] <RAOF> wauwau: Maybe 5Gb, 512Mb, The rest for /home
[08:59] <TaylorT1293> wauwau: RAOF's saying exactly what I've got on mine :)
[08:59] <kahrytan> TaylorT1293: SWAP needs to be at least same size as ram
[08:59] <Tylzen> cables: that seems to work :)
[09:00] <wauwau> raof & taylort1293: thanks a lot ...
[09:00] <Tylzen> cables: I tried to follow JAvAs official sites install guide, but in my terminal when I type in su and is asked for a PW it says it is wrong
[09:00] <RAOF> kahrytan: That's totally wrong.
[09:00] <cables> Tylzen, ok
[09:00] <IdahoEv> how do I get rid of a broken package that didn't fully install with apt-get?   "apt-get remove" gives me the same error with this package that "apt-get install" did.
[09:00] <Absens> anyone familiar with firestarter?
[09:00] <Madpilot> ubotu, java | Tylzen
[09:00] <ubotu> Tylzen: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[09:00] <duffyd> anyone ?

[09:01] <TaylorT1293> RAOF: I take it my IQ isn't below average going by what kahrytan said?
[09:01] <defcon> why does this happen in ubuntu
[09:02] <defcon> and not in any other os
[09:02] <defcon> ;\
[09:02] <Madpilot> ubotu, anyone | duffyd
[09:02] <ubotu> duffyd: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:02] <TaylorT1293> RAOF: (i.e. I'm not crazy after all)
[09:02] <RAOF> TaylorT1293: No, you're fine.  He's wrong, there's no reason to have any particular value of swap (and certainly not 2*RAM).  That's *really* old stuff (win3.11 style time :))
[09:03] <RAOF> defcon: Probably becasue Ubuntu builds everything with a bunch of compile-time security options, which abyss is breaking.
[09:03] <EmoKarnaj> Hi.  I am compiling a list and collection of 'essential apps' any computer user could possibly need, not counting hackers, perverts or gamers.  No offense... anyone have any bright ideas?  I already have openoffice.org, gimp, browsed through http://www.opensourcewindows.org/ ... oh I couldn't install ubuntu on my computer, but you guys seem to be the experts on things like these
[09:03] <defcon> security options?
[09:03] <RAOF> defcon: In particular, it seems that it's trying to access memory weirdly.  If this is the intended behaviour, file a bug.
[09:03] <defcon> where can I get more info
[09:04] <Tylzen> Well I must say that Linux has gotten a lot more user friendly.
[09:04] <Tylzen> Since I last used it
[09:04] <duffyd> ubotu: :-) ok. just so you've got a context for this - I'm a web dev and I've got a dev site setup on another ip address and for some reason none of my browsers are recognising this address assignment in /etc/hosts
[09:04] <defcon> where can I find these compile time security options
[09:04] <defcon> any way to bypass?

[09:05] <RAOF> defcon: I'm not entirely sure, there's something on the ubuntu wiki, but I can't seem to find it.
[09:05] <Madpilot> duffyd, first off, ubotu is a bot, not a human. ;)
[09:05] <duffyd> yeah ;-)
[09:05] <jean> hello all
[09:06] <RAOF> defcon: And you can't turn it off, it's how the abyss package was compiled.  You should file a bug against the abyss package.
[09:06] <mistone> how do I run a script when a cd is inserted ( before it gets mounted )
[09:06] <jean> when trying to change the hostname of my pc i get the error msg "The default Gateway IP address is invalid."
[09:06] <RAOF> mistone: Hm, probably some udev trickery.  What do you want to do?
[09:06] <jean> why can't i change my computer's name?
[09:06] <IntuitiveNipple> air23: Once LiveCD has started, there's an "Install" icon on the desktop. Double-click that and you're started
[09:07] <mistone> I have ubuntu server + mpd and I want to use abcde to automagicly rip my CDs when I put a audio CD in
[09:07] <air23> i did but then i get x-server failed, i then want to run it again how do i do that
[09:07] <cables> Audacity in Feisty is horrible, I'm going to have to compile it myself :(
[09:07] <mistone> I have no keyboard, mouse or moniter attached to it
[09:07] <defcon> on this site http://mail.kde.org/pipermail/amarok/2007-January/002449.html it seems he things the gcc installs stack smashing protection
[09:07] <defcon> can I use another gcc
[09:07] <IntuitiveNipple> jean: You can. System > Administration > Networking ... General ... Host name
[09:07] <mistone> so  I want it completly automated
[09:08] <jean> that's what i've done
[09:08] <jean> but i get the previous error msg
 i did but then i get x-server failed, i then want to run it again how do i do that
[09:08] <joe7d6> folks. i need help on video playback problem. video shows artifact or interlaced? on all players(totem,mplayer,vlc). nvidia driver 'nv' i have not installed nvidia binary driver yet. strange... xorg.conf problem? help!
[09:08] <IntuitiveNipple> air23: If x-server failed, it sounds like you need to fix an issue first. You could try using the alternate CD
[09:08] <RAOF> mistone: Oooh.  I'm not sure how to do that, but you want to look into custom udev rules.
[09:08] <Och4> please, if anyone got a minute.  im stuck in the middle of a tutorial.  ""checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executablesSee `config.log' for more details.""  i get this error why ./configure it
[09:08] <joe7d6> forgot to add: video artifacts shown on fullscreen, oversized video!
[09:09] <Ian-Keith> can someone help with a sound issue i've got
[09:09] <IntuitiveNipple> jean: It sounds as if you have a bad manual setting for your network card. Check the properties in the "Connections" tab
[09:09] <RAOF> Och4: You want to run "sudo apt-get build-dep wine"
[09:10] <jean> i am using Kubuntu
 i modified the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file, and now want to check to se if it works, so how can i test it again??
[09:10] <jean> I am in Network Connections
[09:10] <IntuitiveNipple> jean: ahhh, ok, well there's got to be something similar but I don't use KDE
[09:10] <jean> in the Domain Name System tab
[09:10] <RAOF> mistone: Something like this page http://reactivated.net/writing_udev_rules.html would be useful, particularly "running external programs on certain events"
[09:10] <IntuitiveNipple> air23: assuming you are at a shell prompt, try "/etc/init.d/gdm start"
[09:11] <IdahoEv> please help: i need to remove a package that failed to config.  apt cannot install, remove, or purge this package: all attempts return an error.  shell paste is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20759/
[09:11] <IntuitiveNipple> jean: DNS is not the pace
[09:11] <drofdarb> Okay, anyone know why upon starting up, processes would continue starting after the login prompt is displayed?
[09:11] <IntuitiveNipple> jean: the default gateway is set with each network adapter
[09:11] <IntuitiveNipple> drofdarb: Sounds normal to me
[09:11] <crimsun> drofdarb: that's a consequence of using upstart, which brings up services as they're ready.
[09:11] <brentc4m> drofdarb, that's how upstart is configured for some reason
 "it sas permission denied" any ideas???
[09:12] <Ian-Keith> Can anyone help with an issue I'm having with my audio?
[09:12] <drofdarb> Not that it's a huge deal.  But it's kind of annoying that the login prompt is 5 lines up the screen and the output stops on *Running local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)"
[09:12] <IntuitiveNipple> air23: Yes, you need to use "sudo " as a prefix to the command. because you're not logged in as root
[09:12] <drofdarb> IntuitiveNipple, crimsum, brentc4m: oh, okay, gotcha guys
[09:12] <drofdarb> Must be something new with the 7.04 edition.
[09:12] <tondar> I have a png that is 1.2mb what should I use to make it smaller (zip it )
[09:12] <tondar> ?
[09:13] <RAOF> tondar: gzip
[09:13] <tondar> RAOF: did, but it came to be 1.1 MB
[09:13] <knix> Is there a way to get gnome to recalculate the screen resoluton? It really doesn't like it when I change it with xrandr (even thorugh the settings gui dialo)
[09:13] <IdahoEv> where do .deb packages get downloaded to, and can anyone point me to tools I can use to inspect their contents?
[09:13] <jean> IntuitiveNipple: how to know the setting of my default gateway,
[09:13] <brentc4m> drofdarb, yeah it is, kind of annoying if you're not using gdm or something
[09:13] <RAOF> tondar: png files are not going to be very compressible, because they're already compressed
[09:13] <tondar> RAOF: gzip is an app ?
[09:13] <duffyd> anyone here with /etc/hosts file knowledge (plz refer to my previous posts)
[09:13] <defcon> RAOF, can I install another gcc instead of ubuntu's because I believe ubuntu's gcc installs the stack protection
[09:13] <duffyd> or networking in general
[09:14] <tondar> RAOF: is it in the repos ?
[09:14] <RAOF> defcon: As far as I'm aware, it's a compile time option to use the stack protection.
[09:14] <RAOF> tondar: You've already got it installed.
[09:14] <IntuitiveNipple> jean, the setting itself will probably be in /etc/network/interfaces
[09:14] <tondar> RAOF: thought so
[09:14] <jean> 127.0.1.1 doesnt change when i change the hostname
[09:14] <bayziders> For some reason when I go to customize theme it doesn't give me an option for window border? How do I get it back?
[09:14] <IntuitiveNipple> jean: edit /etc/hosts
[09:14] <mistone> so RAOF all I have to do is add RUN+="/usr/bin/my_program" to the end of the cdrom rule file in udev ?
[09:15] <Ian-Keith> Question: I'm having issues with my audio, it's skippy for everything, from the startup sound to MP3s. Anyone know what could cause this?
[09:15] <Och4> please, if anyone got a minute.  im stuck in the middle of a tutorial.  ""checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executablesSee `config.log' for more details.""  i get this error why ./configure it
[09:15] <RAOF> jean: That's right.  That's why the network admin thing tells you to restart after changing yoru host name.
[09:15] <crimsun> Och4: install build-essential
[09:15] <RAOF> Och4: Again, "sudo apt-get install build-dep wine"
[09:15] <Ian-Keith> I just recently installed Ubuntu after Windows broke down hardcore.
[09:15] <RAOF> mistone: Yeah, looks like it.  But I've never done that.
[09:15] <Och4> raof, when did you say before?
[09:15] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: does ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav'' skip, too?
[09:15] <Ian-Keith> uhm
[09:15] <RAOF> Och4: A bit before.
[09:15] <Ian-Keith> well, let me give it a shot
[09:16] <Och4> raof, sorry i missed it
[09:16] <jean> IntuitiveNipple: what should i look for in /etc/network/interfaces?
[09:16] <IntuitiveNipple> Ian-Keith: It sounds like a PCI-bus latency issue. It can often be solved by moving the PCI cards around in the slots on the motherboard, to alter the IRQ handling
[09:16] <IntuitiveNipple> jean: "gateway"
[09:16] <Rictoo> What's the newest and best distributed computing program?
[09:16] <RAOF> drofdarb: It might be worth filing a wishlist bug against upstart.
[09:16] <Och4> raof, what buil though. i don't know what file ya referring to
[09:16] <jean> no gateway in /etc/network/interfaces
[09:17] <air23> i have a dell with ATI RADEON X1400 graphics card and using the 7.04 liveCD, and i get X-server failed. Any solutions?????
[09:17] <Ian-Keith> yeah, it skips
[09:17] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: ok.  Now try ``aplay -Dplughw:0 /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav''
[09:17] <Myrtti> RAOF: I'd say boinc
[09:17] <RAOF> Och4: You run "sudo apt-get build-dep wine"
[09:17] <Ian-Keith> er, crimsun: Yes
[09:17] <IntuitiveNipple> Ian-Keith: It might not be, but I've seen a lot of systems where PCI latency was the issue
[09:17] <crimsun> air23: use the alternate installer, which is text-based, then install fglrx.
[09:17] <jean> IntuitiveNipple: no gateway
[09:18] <mistone> RAOF: that didn't work :(
[09:18] <IntuitiveNipple> jean: that might be why the network manager is complaining, but I can't be sure
[09:18] <Ian-Keith> wow
[09:18] <Ian-Keith> uhm
[09:18] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: That didn't work, the command didn't do a dang thing
[09:18] <Ian-Keith> And then I had to kill it, and got some nice, loud static
[09:19] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: that's not "didn't do a dang thing
[09:19] <crimsun> "
[09:19] <Ian-Keith> ah, okay XD
[09:19] <pyrohotdog> How do I get rid of all these YPBINDPROC_DOMAIN: Domain not bound
[09:19] <pyrohotdog> errors
 how do i do alternate installer???
[09:19] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: does ``aplay -Dhw:0 /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav'' skip, too?
[09:19] <crimsun> air23: download it.
[09:19] <nightfreak> hi, php4-cgi seems to be removed from the official sources in feisty. where can i find it now?
[09:20] <jean> IntuitiveNipple: in /etc/hosts, the name next to 127.0.1.1 do not match hostname
[09:20] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: Yes.
[09:20] <Tarkus> hey, anyone know whats the best, most used/recommended IDE for design/coding websites?  (html, css, php, etc..)
[09:20] <IntuitiveNipple> jean: that would help, to have it match :D
[09:20] <Och4> !invoke
[09:20] <jean> IntuitiveNipple: it is my previous hostname
[09:20] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: please read http://www.linux-sound.info/alsa/index.php?task=support and tell me the URL of the paste generated by the script linked from that page.
[09:20] <jean> it did not change automatically
[09:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about invoke - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:20] <Och4> whats invoke everyone?
[09:20] <Adriano> argh
[09:21] <RAOF> Och4: No idea.  Can we get some context?
[09:21] <spivey350> test
[09:21] <IntuitiveNipple> Tarkus: A powerful one is Eclipse with one of the various HTML/CSS plugins, or myeclipseide, etc
[09:21] <Adriano> the MS news were a wonderful start for the morning
[09:21] <Myrtti> Tarkus: give Screem a try
[09:21] <Adriano> and no doubt, it's monday
[09:21] <Meglo_> Breaking: Hostage situation at Russian embassy in Costa Rica
[09:21] <Myrtti> that's like old
[09:22] <Ademan> Tarkus: nvu, eclipse like people are saying, and there's another that's escaped my mind atm, but iirc it's good
[09:22] <jean> i've changed /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts
[09:22] <jean> so it matches
[09:22] <Adriano> ademan: bluefish? qanta+?
[09:22] <RAOF> Ademan, Tarkus: You might be thinking of "komposer", which is nvu + bugfixes?
[09:22] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: Which link? I need t odownload Alsa-info?
[09:22] <Myrtti> jean: and rebooted?
[09:22] <rollerskatejamms> Anybody know how to get Totem to play sound out of a USB headset?
[09:23] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: yes, then run it.
[09:23] <crimsun> rollerskatejamms: what's the output from ``asoundconf list''?
[09:23] <rollerskatejamms> crimsun, Nvidia and default
[09:23] <Och4> raof, maybe it's nothing special, but heres you go "4: after deleting, from normal user terminal (not superuser) invoke "
[09:23] <jean> Myrtti: did not reboot yet
[09:23] <equilibrix> hello, anybody experiencing very slow gameplay when running games under Wine?
[09:23] <crimsun> rollerskatejamms: if you use alsa directly, you can only set the default sound card.  If you want to migrate sound between different cards on-the-fly, you need to use pulseaudio with pavucontrol.
[09:23] <rollerskatejamms> crimsun, but its listed in the sound control panel
[09:24] <jean> why can i do it graphically?
[09:24] <jean> can't
[09:24] <rollerskatejamms> crimsun, fine, how do i set the default soundcard?
[09:24] <crimsun> rollerskatejamms: asoundconf set-default-card default
[09:24] <rollerskatejamms> crimsun, thanks
[09:24] <Myrtti> oh an early headache
[09:24] <RAOF> Och4: Oh, it's a synonym for "run"
[09:25] <Ian-Keith> How do I install Alsa-info?
[09:25] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: don't install it.  Download it, and run it.
[09:25] <rollerskatejamms> crimsun, That did it thanks! So if I unplug the usb headset will asla not know what to do?
[09:25] <Ian-Keith> Run it?
[09:25] <Meglo_> Breaking: False alarm
[09:25] <crimsun> rollerskatejamms: it should fall back to your onboard.
[09:25] <rollerskatejamms> crimsun, Nice! Thanks so much!
[09:26] <Ian-Keith> well, uhm
[09:26] <equilibrix> hello, anybody experiencing very slow gameplay when running games under Wine?
[09:26] <Ian-Keith> opening it shows me a lot of code
[09:26] <Ian-Keith> as it opened in gedit
[09:26] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: so now save it to your desktop.
[09:26] <Och4> raof, im on the next step, within regedit, and i know what this means at all
[09:26] <Och4> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20761/
[09:26] <Och4> raof, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20761/
[09:27] <RAOF> Och4: That means you need to create a new key in the settings for whatever it is.
[09:27] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: okay, it's saved
[09:27] <RAOF> Och4: I can't really explain it any differently to that.
[09:27] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: now open a Terminal, then execute: bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh
[09:27] <pyrohotdog> Tarkus: screem?
[09:28] <Och4> raof, would you like more contact of the read me file?
[09:28] <RAOF> Och4: No, I know what it's asking you to do, I just can't explain it in any other way.  You go to regedit, open up the key it tells you to, then add some values.
[09:29] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: http://pastebin.ca/487066
[09:29] <sn0n> why we talkin bout regedit in #ubuntu
[09:29] <unimatrix9> hello there, can i use evince and set an timer for slideshow?
[09:30] <RAOF> sn0n: wine.
[09:30] <Och4> raof, should i make the key though???
[09:30] <equilibrix> guys, anybody experiencing very slow gameplay when running games under Wine? Even the platinum-rated games run very slowly (for example Soldat)
[09:30] <sn0n> oo
[09:30] <unimatrix9> evince ; can it change slides in an set time?
[09:30] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: right, so you may have the codec sync issue.
[09:30] <sn0n> equil, you using sdl?
[09:30] <Ian-Keith> meaning I've got to open up my computer and...........
[09:31] <RAOF> Och4: Yes, you should make the key.  That's what the thing says to do.
[09:31] <sn0n> equilibrix: most games you cant just 'install and go' you have to configure a little
[09:31] <RAOF> Why wouldn't you want to make the key?
[09:31] <equilibrix> sn0n: yeah, that's why I need help
[09:32] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: try this (this is one long series of commands, so copy and paste into a Terminal):  kill $(lsof -t /dev/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/mixer* /dev/snd/*) ; sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd |awk '{print $1}') && sudo modprobe snd-ac97-codec && modprobe snd-via82xx dxs_support=4
[09:32] <equilibrix> sn0n: do you have any configure tips how to increase performance? Maybe I'm just missing something important..
[09:32] <Och4> raof, i mean should i title it as something.  the tutorial, doesn't say to give it a name or anything
[09:33] <RAOF> Och4: You can't title it, can you?  Just make the key with the name that they say in the place that they say.
[09:33] <Och4> raof, how do i do this? "1: Mouse_Hack   2: No_Mouse_Center     "apply values "TRUE" to both"  how i do the apply vaules of true??
[09:33] <sn0n> equilibrix: i dont use wine, i just know i hadda hell of a time with WoW,.. and hadda make it use SDL,.. and hear its the same with most games..
[09:34] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: got 4 Operation Not Permitteds
[09:34] <RAOF> sn0n, equilibrix: *I* ran WoW in wine, and all I needed to do was install it.
[09:34] <zerocool> i need some help
[09:34] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: pastebin (use http://pastebin.ca) the command and its output
[09:34] <Och4> raof, within the redegit, getting a key for "wine" oh it lets me name it
[09:34] <RAOF> Och4: You make a new key with the boolean value "true"
[09:34] <zerocool> i got an msi fx5200 vga kard wich is an nvidia whene i try to load the driver i hear only the sound but no display
[09:34] <zerocool> can some one help me up please
[09:35] <RAOF> zerocool: You're using a laptop with an internal LCD?
[09:35] <equilibrix> RAOF: I'm trying to run Soldat, which according to wine application database should run perfectly, but the gamespeed is very slow
[09:35] <zerocool> no i am on a desktop pc
[09:35] <RAOF> equilibrix: Do you have 3D acceleration working?
[09:35] <equilibrix> RAOF: yes, I run native linux apps without any problems
[09:35] <zerocool> with a crt monitor
[09:35] <RAOF> zerocool: Ok, it's not that problem then. :)
[09:36] <Gruelius> Ive buggered my grub setup, how do i reinstall it from the live cd?
[09:36] <Saied> hi all
[09:36] <zerocool> i installed automatix for the driver but it semms that its not working
[09:36] <RAOF> !automatix | zerocool
[09:36] <ubotu> zerocool: 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
[09:36] <Saied> I have a problem with X window system. can anyone help me?
[09:36] <Och4> raof, just "Data TRUE"  like that
[09:36] <Och4> ?
[09:37] <zerocool> so i have to install everything from scratch then
[09:37] <RAOF> Och4: I *don't know*.  There's presumably a "type" setting somewhere, set it to "boolean" and give it the value "true"
[09:37] <tomy-dsd> hi i am runnin xchat when i try to get files over internet it does not work any other irc clients that is better the xchat
[09:37] <zerocool> brb
[09:37] <RAOF> zerocool: not necessarily, but it might be easier.
[09:38] <equilibrix> sn0n: and how did u force it to use SDL? Can this be done with other apps too?
[09:38] <Gruelius> who here want to make $5 AU
[09:39] <Saied> i remixed ubuntu and when want to boot it fails to setup graphical x window system with error "could not open default font 'fixed'"
[09:39] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: hold on, having issues with xrvt, or however that goes
[09:39] <Ian-Keith> it's not copying things for me to paste them into Pastebin
[09:39] <Ian-Keith> click-dragging is not working
[09:39] <Och4> raof, "boolean"  oh man. wheres that.  i right clicked on the string>modify>Date>TRUE
[09:40] <Gruelius> saied try sudo dpkg-reconfigure
[09:40] <Gruelius> the full command should be in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[09:40] <Saied> but when i boot it in virtual machine it boots normally with X window system
[09:41] <Gruelius> same install?
[09:41] <Gruelius> or same config
[09:41] <RAOF> Och4: *I don't know*.  Probably at the "string" bit.
[09:41] <tomy-dsd> hi i downloaed sirc how can i run it on graphic mode
[09:41] <Saied> no real boot is from CD in live mode. maybe bad burn ?
[09:42] <Gruelius> ah, so when yourun the live cd you get that error message
[09:42] <Gruelius> and when you run in vm you dont
[09:42] <Gruelius> select "Test disc for faults" or whatever it is on the bootup disc menu
[09:42] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: I tried in a new terminal window instead of uxvct and got three error messages (no such file/direc) and a kill: usage: message
[09:43] <crssout> hi :)...... need help on an issue, I changed the host name to something else, told me that if i needed to lunch applications I would have to log back in, well I did but it gnome now fails to start, don't know how to make it work with terminal
[09:43] <Saied> Gruelius: yaah
[09:43] <Saied> Gruelius: OK
[09:43] <defcon> yo
[09:43] <Gruelius> crssout: change hostname back to original value?
[09:43] <tomy-dsd> hi i downloaed sirc how can i run it on graphic mode
[09:43] <defcon> how do I add -fno-stack-protector to a make file, like where do I put it after
[09:44] <crssout> yeah i tried with hostname but it resets when i reboot back to the screwd up value
[09:44] <equilibrix> guys, anybody solved problem with games running slowly under Wine?
[09:44] <tomy-dsd> hi i downloaed sirc how can i run it on graphic mode
[09:44] <Gruelius> equilibrix: which games
[09:45] <StarScream> equilibrix: which games..the only games i have all run well.
[09:45] <Gruelius> tomy-dsd: as much as i want help too i dont repost my question every 5 lines
[09:45] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: http://pastebin.ca/487073
[09:45] <tomy-dsd> hi i downloaed sirc how can i run it on graphic mode
[09:45] <equilibrix> Gruelius: for example Soldat, which is platinum-rated and duns very slowly although it should run flawlessly
[09:45] <StarScream> equilibrix: what is your video card  and do you have correct  drivers   installed and working ?
[09:46] <rakeer> If i simply disable the service powernowd, will it stop the processor from stepping?
[09:46] <Gruelius> open source drivers or proprietary?
[09:46] <StarScream> i.e does glxgears give you a decent frame rate
[09:46] <equilibrix> StarScream: I have ATI Radeon 9800 PRO, 3D acceleration working
[09:46] <equilibrix> StarScream: native linux games run perfectly with 3D acceleration
[09:46] <crssout> am I going to have to reinstall ubuntu? I don't know why this even happened, all I did is change the hostname :(
[09:47] <tomy-dsd> hi i downloaed sirc how can i run it on graphic mode
[09:47] <insmod>  proprietary is better on some not all nvidia yes ati yes
[09:47] <Gruelius> crssout: how did you change it
[09:48] <insmod> crssout : what is the prob
[09:48] <crssout> trough the network selection in system
[09:48] <insmod> crssout : what is the prob
[09:48] <crssout> cant log in anymore
[09:48] <insmod> crssout : what is wrong
[09:49] <insmod> crssout : graphic utils suck -- but i am an old fart 11yrs linux user lol i hate gui
[09:50] <crssout> sorry I asked the question earliers, let me explain, when I changed the host name it told me that if I wanted to lauch new application to log back in
[09:50] <insmod> crssout : yes u must
[09:50] <crssout> well i did and gnome fails to load i just get a blank background screen
[09:50] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: You alive still?
[09:51] <Och4> raof, it didn't work :)
[09:51] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: yes, what's the result?
[09:51] <insmod> crssout : did you reboot?
[09:51] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: http://pastebin.ca/487073
[09:51] <Ian-Keith> looks like I have no sound driver at all now
[09:51] <Och4> raof, big thank though.  you really tired and did help me along
[09:51] <crssout> insmod: its odd that that screwd it up, yes i rebooted, tried changing the hostname back through the backup terminal, but it doesn't stick when I reboot
[09:52] <crssout> insmod: I changed the host name to the exact value of my username, maybe that had something to do with it?
[09:52] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: do each of those steps one at a time.
[09:52] <Ian-Keith> so, first the kill
[09:53] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: yep.  Separate the commands.
[09:53] <Ian-Keith> the kill gets the No Such File/Directory
[09:53] <Ian-Keith> and the kill: usage:
[09:54] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: no big deal.  What's the output from  lsmod|grep ^snd  ?
[09:54] <insmod> crssout : sudo  echo "name >> /etc/hostname"
[09:54] <zaggynl> What's the difference between /usr/bin and /usr/sbin ?
[09:54] <Gruelius> can anyone and everyone wish me luck plz? testing grub
[09:54] <crimsun> zaggynl: different $PATH
[09:54] <zaggynl> gl hf Gruelius
[09:54] <Ian-Keith> how much of that command do you want?
[09:54] <zaggynl> crimsun, what does this mean?
[09:54] <pv2b> zaggynl: /usr/sbin contains utilities typically only used by administrators
[09:54] <zaggynl> ah okay, thanks
[09:54] <crssout> insmod: what will that do? right now im windows xp since I cant do anything
[09:54] <zaggynl> I just downloaded this poweriso commandline tool, I'll put it in /usr/bin then
[09:55] <pv2b> zaggynl: you probably want to put it in /usr/local/bin
[09:55] <insmod> crssout : change the host name
[09:55] <zaggynl> pv2b, how so?
[09:55] <pv2b> zaggynl: on debian-based systems, you typically keep files that are managed by debian packages in /usr/bin et cetera
[09:56] <zaggynl> ah okay
[09:56] <zaggynl> so 'loose' programs should be put in /usr/local/bin
[09:56] <pv2b> zaggynl: for stuff built from source code or installed otherwise outside the .deb system, you should put them in /usr/local somewhere /usr/local/bin for a binary for example
[09:56] <pv2b> yeah
[09:56] <pv2b> it might already be in your path
[09:56] <zaggynl> will do, thanks for the info
[09:56] <pv2b> echo $PATH and find out
[09:56] <crssout> insmod k i'll give it a shot, let me just clarify sudo echo"(new name goes here?) >> /etc/hostname:
[09:57] <pv2b> zaggynl: it's more a convention than a loose rule, really
[09:57] <pv2b> s/loose/strict/
[09:57] <insmod> crssout : yup
[09:57] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: How much of this command were you looking for again?
[09:57] <crssout> insmod: k brb
[09:57] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: run them all.
[09:57] <Flannel> crssout: sudo echo "newname" | sudo tee -a /etc/hostname
[09:57] <Ian-Keith> Yes, but you wanted me to separate it; I'm not sure where to do that.
[09:58] <Bogaurd> i've got feisty on my desktop - if i try to run a command, but i dont have the package installed, i get a message saying it can be installed though the following package: blah
[09:58] <rancidlm> hey all does any one know how to start a application in a new display using startx ?
[09:59] <Bogaurd> i have feisty on my server... but that one does not give the suggestions
[09:59] <Bogaurd> any idea as to why?
[09:59] <Flannel> Bogaurd: because you don't have the package that suggests things installed.
[09:59] <Bogaurd> heh
[09:59] <insmod> rancidlm: startx -- :1
[09:59] <Bogaurd> Flannel: what is the suggestion package?
[09:59] <rancidlm> insmod, perfect thanks!
[09:59] <pv2b> zaggynl: i'm not sure how compliant Ubuntu specifically is with the FHS, but that's one standard that is pretty close to, if not entirely in line with what ubuntu does.
[10:00] <pv2b> zaggynl: take a look at http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ -- as i said, it might not be completely accurate for ubuntu, but the basics should be correct
[10:00] <Flannel> Bogaurd: Not sure.  Uh, a quick search reveals "comman-not-found" which seems likely
[10:00] <Bogaurd> thanks :)
[10:00] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd |awk '{print $1}') gave a password prompt, then a command prompt
[10:00] <zaggynl> Awesome, thanks for the links pv2b
[10:02] <Bogaurd> Flannel: hrmm. it says i already have it installed :(
[10:02] <Flannel> Bogaurd: then maybe you need to enable it or something, as part of your environment
[10:02] <Bogaurd> ah yeah i just found it
[10:02] <Bogaurd> in bashrc
[10:02] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: good.
[10:03] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: now, the next.
[10:04] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: tons of error messages.
[10:04] <Ian-Keith> Operation Not Permitteds.

[10:06] <crimsun> ap: yes.
[10:06] <Ian-Keith> ahh
[10:06] <Ian-Keith> i had to break it down
[10:06] <Gerro> ap: yes it uses .deb system
[10:06] <Ian-Keith> sudo modprobe snd-ac97-codec
[10:06] <shirish> guys I am on my live CD & im unable to do fdisk -l /dev/sdb or fdisk -l /dev/hdb
[10:06] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: right, so now, the last command.
[10:07] <Ian-Keith> then sudo modprobe snd-via82xx dxs_support=4
[10:07] <shirish> I want to list the hdd
[10:07] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: ok, have you executed that last one?
[10:07] <crossbar> dunder, dalnet :P
[10:07] <Gerro> shirish: what the -l for? perhaps sda or hda?
[10:07] <Ian-Keith> yes
[10:07] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: ok, and how about the output from ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav'' ?
[10:07] <Gerro> shirish: do df to see your file systems
[10:07] <Ian-Keith> it plays, but is skippy
[10:08] <shirish> Gerro: I'm on the live CD not on the hdd
[10:08] <ap> where i can find debian package for playig mp3 and movie
[10:08] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: in bios, is there anything about pci transaction burst or pci delayed transactions?
[10:08] <shirish> Gerro: the hdd has linux, but its IDE1
[10:08] <Ian-Keith> what?
[10:08] <Gerro> shirish: ok so your trying to install over your old linux install?
[10:08] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: How do I check that?
[10:09] <shirish> Gerro: nope, it has 7.04 I just want to put dma on the hdd
[10:09] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: you need to reboot and go into your bios
[10:09] <Gerro> shirish: then what are you doing using the live cd!?
[10:09] <Gerro> shirish: use hdparm
[10:09] <Ian-Keith> Okay...what key is it normally that I have to bash to get it do go into bios?
[10:10] <shirish> Gerro: lemme cite the bug-report first
[10:10] <Sil1> bittorrent isn't showing in my applications list but it's installed.. how can i add it manually?
[10:10] <Gerro> Ian-Keith: f10
[10:10] <Gerro> Sil1: you need the bit torrent gui
[10:10] <Gerro> shirish: there is a dma bug with 7.04?
[10:11] <sil1> ok
[10:11] <shirish> Gerro: I don't know but I have not been able to set it through the hdd , hdparm thing
[10:11] <dobblego> is there easyubuntu for the command line only?
[10:11] <crssout> insmod: k didn't work :(, samething, when rebooted, hostname was still the latter
[10:12] <kurtti> Do you know any good tutorial for setting up Subversion on Edgy?
[10:12] <dawn_chorus> exit
[10:12] <shirish> Gerro: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/96693
[10:12] <dobblego> kurtti, sudo apt-get install subversion # and you're done
[10:12] <kurtti> heh, thanks
[10:12] <premier_> hello, I'm going to make a presentation using a project tommarow.  Last time I tried to do anything dual-monitor with linux, it got screwed up.  Should dual monitors "just work" in ubuntu, and what should I do if they do not work?
[10:13] <theINC_> Hey, got my Ubuntu CD today :) just gonna try it now, tell you how it rates up to Vista and OS X
[10:13] <premier_> I would be real embarrising if it didn't work, of if I had to spend 20 minutes hacking it
[10:13] <dobblego> premier_, you usually have to set it up; depending on your video card
[10:13] <shirish> Gerro: guys, help me I'm unable to see my hdd partitions through the live CD
[10:13] <ap> :'(please  cant play mp3 ile on my ubuntu 6, where i ant find  it
[10:13] <crimsun> premier_: which video card do you have?
[10:14] <premier_> dobblego: ati radeon Mobility X1400, cr
[10:14] <premier_> crimsun:
[10:14] <dobblego> !ati > premier_
[10:14] <Gerro> shirish mount them
[10:15] <shirish> Gerro: how can I moun them?
[10:15] <premier_> dobblego, crimsun, I have the fglrx drivers installed, and they work as well as fglrx drivers work
[10:15] <RockClimber> I'm trying to get the same network setup I had on fedora. I have eth0,wired,static IP,user controllable and eth1,wireless,dhcp,user controllable and set using Networkmanager. Now under fedora nm would bring up eth0 if I plugged it in (at work) and at home it would prompt for keyring password to brng up eth1. Now in feisty eth1 works fine but eth0 isn't started by networkmanager. Any ideas how to do that? It needs to be static.
[10:15] <theINC_> okay, first problem: Ubuntu doesn't fill my screen on 1152 x 864, and I don't want to downgrade to 1024x768 or change my monitor size setting.  answers?
[10:15] <shirish> Gerro: how can I mount the hdd?
[10:15] <crimsun> theINC_: video card?
[10:15] <Gerro> shirish: cd /mnt mkdir mybrokenassHD mount /dev/sda /mnt/mybrokenassHD
[10:15] <theINC_> crimsun: 7900GS
[10:15] <dobblego> premier_, then does it work?
[10:15] <Gerro> shirish that should work :)
[10:15] <crimsun> theINC_: ...Nvidia?
[10:16] <theINC_> crimsun: uhuh
[10:16] <crimsun> theINC_: so are you using the binary-only Nvidia drivers?
[10:16] <theINC_> yup.
[10:16] <theINC_> crimsun: just using the ones that came with
[10:16] <premier_> dobblego: I'm not sure yet, as it don't have the projector... but if I have the drivers, should I expect it to "just work"?
[10:16] <crssout> hi, do you guys know if changing the host name will prevent you from loggin back in? it screwd me up, i get a black window when I try to log in :(
[10:16] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: restarting now
[10:16] <crssout> *blank
[10:16] <BVBBQ> can someone tell me the commands to reformat an external hard drive, i bought one but it came formatted and ubuntu is hating it.
[10:16] <theINC_> oh, wait, i need to download the recommended drivers...
[10:17] <RockClimber> crssout, add localhost back to your /etc/hosts
[10:17] <theINC_> should the ones I get from Desktop Effects do?
[10:17] <dobblego> premier_, there are lots of variables, but it could just work; but you'll only have two monitors, not a single screen
[10:17] <Gerro> BVBBQ: use fdisk and make it fat32
[10:17] <shirish> Gerro: don't know what the thing with brokenass but did as you told, now what?
[10:17] <crimsun> theINC_: use System> Administration> Restricted Drivers Manager
[10:17] <Gerro> shirish: your HD stuff should be inside that folder I guess
[10:18] <BVBBQ> anyone?
[10:18] <Gerro> BVBBQ: use fdisk
[10:18] <theINC_> crimsun: I'm able to get onto the ineternet with Firefox but the package downloader doesn't want to work.
[10:18] <crssout> RockClimber: wich cmds will I need to do that? I tried sudo echo "name>>/etc/hostname" but it didnt' work
[10:18] <BVBBQ> Gerro, can you walk me through the peculiars of that?
[10:18] <Gerro> BVBBQ: sure
[10:18] <RockClimber> crssout, open the file with vi and makesure the line "127.0.0.1" has localhost as one of the aliases
[10:18] <shirish> Gerro: peculiar, there is no mybrokenassHD folder
[10:18] <RockClimber> BVBBQ, don;t use fdisk
[10:18] <BVBBQ> Gerro, ok. so in terminal sudo fdisk what?
[10:19] <RockClimber> fdisk is for partitions
[10:19] <BVBBQ> RockClimber, why not?
[10:19] <BVBBQ> RockClimber, thanks.
[10:19] <Gerro> BVBBQ the location of the device in /dev/
[10:19] <RockClimber> you need to do "mkfs.vfat /dev/hdX"
[10:19] <RockClimber> or mkfs.ext2
[10:19] <rakeer> Can someone explain how I get sound to work in dosbox/
[10:19] <crssout> RockClimber: don't know what vi is, can u start it through terminal? I can only use the back up terminal
[10:19] <RockClimber> fdisk just makes partitions it doesn't format them
[10:20] <RockClimber> crssout, "sudo vim /etc/hosts"
[10:20] <BVBBQ> RockClimber, ok so it needs to be compatible with windows as well as ubuntu. just for storage of mp3s
[10:20] <Gerro> BVBBQ: you want to remove any partitions on it and create a new primary partition for fat32 then write the partition table to the drive
[10:20] <crssout> RockClimber: thx man, ill see if it works brb
[10:20] <BVBBQ> Gerro, no just reformat and make it fat32
[10:20] <RockClimber> crssout,  you need "127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
[10:21] <RockClimber> actually you don't defintely need localhost.localdomain, just localhost should do
[10:21] <RockClimber> BVBBQ, "man mkfs.vfat"
[10:21] <crssout> RockClimber: thx I'll update u in a bit
[10:21] <BVBBQ> RockClimber, so just hit that into terminal and it will reformat my external hard drive?
[10:21] <RockClimber> crssout, you may need to restart your networking daemon "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[10:21] <shirish> Gerro: no luck :/
[10:22] <theINC_> and now i've lost my network :(
[10:22] <theINC_> wait, we're back.
[10:22] <crssout> RockClimber:ok ill right that down too
[10:23] <RockClimber> is there another ubuntu channel for discussing problems that are probably bugs rather than just answering simple user questions?
[10:23] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: No, nothing about either in Bios
[10:23] <ravigr8> hello is there any channel for chatting on java?
[10:23] <rakeer> how do I enable sound in dosbox?
[10:24] <BVBBQ> RockClimber, can you please explain in laymens terms. do i just type what you said into terminal or is there something else?
[10:24] <crossbar> premier_: che this out http://www.ygriega.de/index.php?id=2&amp;detail=1 for dual monitor
[10:24] <yellow_chicken> int x=255; int y=~x;   why it came out negative?  precedence problem?
[10:24] <RockClimber> BVBBQ, there are many tutorials on google for formatting a FAT32 filesystem from a linux box. Read about mkfs.vfat
[10:24] <stork> ravigr8, ##java
[10:24] <BVBBQ> thanks
[10:25] <zaggynl> !shockwave
[10:25] <ubotu> Shockwave is currently only available for Windows. To run it under !Wine, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[10:25] <zaggynl> !#$)(*
[10:25] <ravigr8> thanx
[10:25] <sil1> can i use ktorrent in feisty?
[10:25] <misfitpierce> in kubuntu I believe so
[10:26] <RockClimber> sil1, depends - is it for porn or pirate movies
[10:26] <yellow_chicken> for Bitwise complements does it turn 1 into 0 and 0 to 1?  it seems like it turn one into negative instead
[10:26] <sil1> trying to get ubuntu-studio
[10:26] <RockClimber> sil1, yes it will work then
[10:26] <crossbar> rockclimber, what is that all about :P
[10:26] <sil1> deluge isn't working for me, and i get an error when i try to install bittorrent gui
[10:26] <void^> yellow_chicken: if you switch the topmost bit of a signed value to 1 you get a negative number.
[10:27] <RockClimber> just for the benefit of all the misguided souls, you don't need KDE to run KDE applications, just qt (which will install with apt-get when you inst k-blah-blah).
[10:27] <RockClimber> crossbar, what's what about?
[10:27] <theINC> argh! I can't get Ubuntu to keep a network connection!
[10:27] <toool> any one here know how to instal devede 2.13
[10:28] <crossbar> i just wasnt sure if u were talking against pirating movies or if there really is some kind of restriction on the client
[10:28] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: No, there is nothing of that sort in my BIOS.
[10:28] <BVBBQ> RockClimber, i like how the command you told me to look up has some of the most complicated websites devoted to it. harder than learning japanese from a dislexic algerian.
[10:28] <crossbar> with ubuntu i just dont know anymore :)
[10:28] <theINC> argh, and now it's frozen on me.
[10:29] <theINC> i'm not sure I actually like this ubuntu.
[10:29] <premier_> I have a freind who is on a macintosh; how can i share files with him?  Such as with an ethernet cable?
[10:29] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: what exactly are you trying to do?
[10:29] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: right, now repeat those steps, but use dxs_support=5
[10:29] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: if that still has bad audio, then use dxs_support=2
[10:30] <Ian-Keith> Blah...can you c/p the last steps for me again? Don't have them after the reboot
[10:30] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, im trying to reformat an external hardrive.
[10:30] <crossbar> ive always liked ubuntu, except today i tried getting my belkin wireless working with lin drvrs and ndis
[10:30] <RockClimber> BVBBQ, what's wrong with dislexic people and how hard is japanese to learn, thousands of japenese 4 year old can speak it?
[10:30] <crossbar> just to play around i tried it on 5.10, 6 and 7.04
[10:30] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: unmount it first
[10:30] <AmyRose> crossbar: You have to blacklist like 12 modules if yours is ralink-based
[10:30] <crossbar> its an rt73
[10:30] <RockClimber> BVBBQ, what is the device address for the harddrive (something like /dev/sda) it'll appear in "dmesg" when you plug it in
[10:31] <Gerro> RockClimber: writing it is another thing but easier than chinese I hear
[10:31] <defcon> anyone know how to disable stack smash protection in gcc
[10:31] <crossbar> since i dont have another operating sys i desided to try pclinux today and im giving it a go.
[10:31] <Gerro> defcon: I do
[10:31] <defcon> how
[10:31] <defcon> its making me mad lol
[10:31] <crossbar> ubuntu could seriously use its network configurator
[10:31] <crossbar> had it found and setup in  10 sec flat :P
[10:31] <defcon> hehe
[10:31] <yellow_chicken> void^: int x=255; that's 1111.1111.  how do i turn it into x=0? --> 000.0000 ?
[10:32] <Gerro> defcon: CFLAGS=-fno-stack-protector ./configure
[10:32] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: what exactly is giving you a problem?
[10:32] <defcon> in the make file?
[10:32] <Gerro> defcon: bleh I mean instead of doing ./configure you just do "CFLAGS=-fno-stack-protector ./configure"
[10:32] <Och4> hello
[10:32] <defcon> how do I do it for make
[10:32] <zaggynl> crossbar, which one does pclinux use?
[10:32] <BVBBQ> RockClimber, it says it is at /media/usbdisk
[10:33] <Gerro> defcon: you don't have to, make does what is 'configured' to do
[10:33] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: Can you get me that last command?
[10:33] <crimsun> which?
[10:33] <Gerro> defcon: just configure it differently and make will work
[10:33] <crossbar> i dont know.  im trying to figure it out so i can use it in the livecd i want to build
[10:33] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: it's 4:30 AM, and I have an 8:00 AM meeting.
[10:33] <Ian-Keith> :/
[10:33] <defcon> can I add "CFLAGS=-fno-stack-protector" to the makefile?
[10:33] <Ian-Keith> Sorry. Just getting into Ubuntu, I'm new to it all.
[10:34] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, the fact that i am a total newb at linux is giving me the greif. im just trying to reformat. it should be simple. i need the string of commands to mash into terminal.
[10:34] <void^> yellow_chicken: 'int' is usually a 32bit value. there are 24 zeros in front of the bits that make up 255.
[10:34] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: I just don't know which command you want me to repeat.
[10:34] <skylight> anyone know why my scroll on the mouse isnt working?
[10:34] <Gerro> crossbar: so what you having trouble with in doing so?
[10:34] <Ian-Keith> You wanted me to repeat "those steps" with dxs_support=5 and =2
[10:34] <Ian-Keith> But I don't have the rest of the commands,
[10:34] <theINC> is there no way to save my liveCD setting on my physical HDD (ntfs)?
[10:34] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: the kill [..] ; [..]  && modprobe
[10:34] <Mantice> My dvd drive is not working is there like a device manager or something along the lines of that ?
[10:34] <zaggynl> crossbar, when you've found out, could you PM me with the name? thanks
[10:35] <crimsun> Ian-Keith: you'll find them in your bash history.
[10:35] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: what do you want to format it as, vfat?
[10:35] <skylight> anyone at all?
[10:35] <yellow_chicken> void^: ah.. i see.
[10:35] <Gerro> theINC: you can write to ntfs with captive ntfs or ntfs ng 3 or whatever that driver is called
[10:35] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: if you want to use it to swap files with a Windows PC then this is probably what you want
[10:35] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, i want to make it fat32, it needs to work with windows too
[10:35] <defcon> Gerro, I added "CFLAGS=-fno-stack-protector" to the make file without quotes and its still smashing
[10:35] <crossbar> gerro i dont have any trouble right now.  but i did get a hint into what my ubuntu wireless probs were
[10:35] <gordonjcp> yup
[10:35] <crossbar> zaggy, sure
[10:35] <Gerro> theINC: hope you aren't planning on trying to install linux to ntfs won't work
[10:35] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, that works too
[10:35] <theINC> uh oh.
[10:35] <defcon> CFLAGS=-fno-stack-protector
[10:35] <defcon> all: abyss
[10:35] <defcon> abyss: main.o usage.o net.o scan.o log.o parse.o datalink.o check.o synscan.o icmp.o test.o tcp.o pingsweep.o udp.o udpscan.o
[10:35] <defcon> 	gcc main.o usage.o net.o scan.o log.o parse.o datalink.o check.o synscan.o icmp.o test.o tcp.o pingsweep.o udp.o udpscan.o -o abyss -g -lpthread -lpcap
[10:35] <skylight> anyone know why my scroll on the mouse isnt working?
[10:36] <theINC> my hard-drive is NTFS formatted, can I make a (whatever format linux likes) partition?
[10:36] <Gerro> defcon: do exactly as I say go into directory and enter "CFLAGS=-fno-stack-protector ./configure" then do "make" then as root do "make install" its that simple
[10:36] <theINC> using GnomePE?
[10:36] <Gerro> theINC: yes you can, ext3 partition is what you want to setup
[10:37] <theINC> BAH! i can't keep a steady network connection with Ubuntu
[10:37] <theINC> i'm trying to download the Nvidia drivers
[10:37] <Madpilot> theINC, the LiveCD installer has a partitioner - it can shrink your NTFS partition and repartition as ext3
[10:37] <defcon> root@dell:~/scan/abyss# CFLAGS=-fno-stack-protector ./configure
[10:37] <defcon> bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
[10:37] <Gerro> theINC: if your trying to dual boot with windows and linux I suggest you read up on how to do that, but if you want to install linux just run the installer it will partition it for you
[10:37] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: basically you need to find out what the device is
[10:37] <jscinoz> Hey guys, im having major problems getting nvidia-glx-new to work, i've tried everything, i've removed, purged and reinstalled the restricted modules for my kernel, the driver itself and eveything i can think of but whatever i do i get "FATAL: error running install command for nvidia" on startup, what can i do?
[10:37] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: it will probably show up as a SCSI device of some sort
[10:37] <defcon> this program has no configure
[10:38] <theINC> Gerro: I've got Vista already installed, shouldn't I just be able to create a partion and I'll get the dual-booty?
[10:38] <yellow_chicken> void^: is there a 8-bit integer? or some sort of unsign primative type?
[10:38] <theINC> Gerro: if no, then where's a good tutorial about that?
[10:38] <Gerro> jscinoz: that thing is really ooold, grab the one from nvidia site and do it yourself
[10:38] <jscinoz> nvidia-glx-new and the one on the site are both 9755...
[10:38] <Gerro> !dualboot > theINC
[10:39] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, ok. walk me through this. what do i have to do to find out.
[10:39] <gordonjcp> ok, is the drive plugged in?
[10:39] <Gerro> theINC: windows likes to hog the master boot record, its more so a bios thing
[10:39] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: ?
[10:39] <Mantice> Can some one help me with my new dvd drive, but I dont know what linux is up to and where it is.
[10:40] <Gerro> theINC: if you like the fancy graphics of vista you might want to test out beryl on linux, its awesome :)
[10:40] <jscinoz> Hey guys, im having major problems getting nvidia-glx-new to work, i've tried everything, i've removed, purged and reinstalled the restricted modules for my kernel, the driver itself and eveything i can think of but whatever i do i get "FATAL: error running install command for nvidia" on startup, what can i do?
[10:40] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, how do i find out "what the device is" and if it will show up as scsi device, how do i look for scsi devices
[10:40] <theINC> Gerro: I assumed that Desktop Effects was related to Beryl?
[10:40] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: is it plugged in?
[10:40] <jscinoz> I hear that CompComm (beryl+compiz merge) will be ready by the end of the month
[10:40] <defcon> Gerro, this app does not have a configure script, only a make file
[10:40] <gordonjcp> defcon: what's the app?
[10:40] <jscinoz> Theinc, desktop-effects is compiz, less featrure rich but more stable than beryl
[10:40] <defcon> to run the initial app
[10:40] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, yes it is. it shows up as a hard drive that i cannot write to.
[10:40] <defcon> its a hommade syn scan
[10:40] <theINC> okai.
[10:40] <jscinoz> theinc, but beryl and compiz are merging soon anyway so you'll get the best of both =P
[10:41] <gordonjcp> right - can you read it?
[10:41] <defcon> gordonjcp,  its a scanner my friend made
[10:41] <Gerro> defcon: then might have to setup your own configure script?... erm I have no clue really
[10:41] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, yes i can
[10:41] <theINC> I can't hold a network connection with Ubuntu - what can I do to diagnose it and therefore solve?
[10:41] <gordonjcp> defcon: tell him to learn how to use gnu autotools or scons
[10:41] <Gerro> defcon: what is it your trying to install?
[10:41] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: good
[10:41] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: at a command-line type in "mount"
[10:42] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, what am i looking for?
[10:42] <Ian-Keith> And now my comp is hanging
[10:42] <Ian-Keith> Periodically
[10:42] <defcon> gordonjcp, how do I modify the make file to put in -fno-stack-protector
[10:42] <CheshireViking> skylight,  check your xorg.conf, have you got the line "Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" " within the inputdevice section?
[10:42] <Gerro> theINC: yeah
[10:42] <defcon> im just trying to compile an application a friend made
[10:42] <defcon> it compiles on any other linux
[10:42] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: do you see lots of lines like "/dev/sda3 on / type ext3" kind of thing?
[10:42] <defcon> but ubuntu has too much gay protection
[10:42] <gordonjcp> defcon: you'd be better asking your friend about it
[10:43] <defcon> he died
[10:43] <gordonjcp> why do you want a syn scanner anyway?
[10:43] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, /dev/sda1 on /media/usbdisk type ntfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,uid=1000,gid=1000,umask=077,iocharset=utf8)
[10:43] <Gerro> theINC: might want to make a list of windows apps you use and see how supported they are with wine or if they don't need directx support and can be run in virtual windows setup
[10:43] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: good
[10:43] <hilts50> how can I edit my xorg.conf file?  I know this is a really lame question.
[10:43] <gordonjcp> that sounds like your external drive - am I right?
[10:44] <theINC> Gerro: I use OS X for most of my computing, so the things I'd need the PC for are gaming.
[10:44] <defcon> I audit networks
[10:44] <defcon> for a living
[10:44] <Ian-Keith> crimsun: if you're still here, thanks for trying to help. I'll just pick up tomorrow some time. Thanks for putting up with me.
[10:44] <gordonjcp> defcon: have you tried nmap?
[10:44] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, yes it is. i know this for a fact that it is the hard drive in question
[10:44] <void^> yellow_chicken: unsigned char
[10:44] <defcon> yea
[10:44] <defcon> nmap is nice but for some reason it kills my internet connection
[10:44] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: good.  It's best to make sure, because there's no going back once you format ;-)
[10:44] <defcon> it drops my dsl
[10:44] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, good call.
[10:44] <defcon> any idea on fixing that?
[10:45] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: unmount it, either by right-clicking and saying "unmount"
[10:45] <theINC> well, I've got an ethernet cable plugged in, and I can get a network connection (internet) when I start up.  After about 30 secs or so it goes though
[10:45] <defcon> nmap runs fine but my connection drops
[10:45] <yellow_chicken> void^: i found 'byte'  , is unsigned char any better? it's for IP calculator
[10:45] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, done
[10:45] <gordonjcp> defcon: if you're port-scanning from a DSL connection, your ISP is probably thinking you're up to no good
[10:45] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: it won't appear in mount now - try it and make sure
[10:45] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, yes it is gone.
[10:46] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: you now want to do something like mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
[10:46] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: check the man page for mkfs.vfat because you might need to pass extra parameters to set it to 32-bit
[10:46] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: brb, meeting
[10:47] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, its just for holding music. it doesnt need to be fancy
[10:50] <BVBBQ> gordon............... im scared........ will i dream........
[10:51] <andrzej19801> siemka
[10:53] <BVBBQ> anyone?
[10:54] <BVBBQ> wow it died in here
[10:55] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: what are you trying to do?
[10:55] <Erix> hi
[10:55] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, trying to reformat my external hard drive. trying to make it useful for both windows and linux.
[10:56] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: okay. can you currently mount it?
[10:56] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, i " mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
[10:56] <BVBBQ> " ed it and now i cant mount
[10:56] <battlesquid> where can i find login themes for ubuntu?
[10:56] <VSpike> Can anyone tell me which tool I'd use to filter a text file to only show lines which match or don't match a regex?
[10:56] <VSpike> awk?
[10:56] <richard_> Can some one help me get my digital camera working with linux
[10:57] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: okay.. sounds like you did it.. what's the problem? :)
[10:57] <battlesquid> VSpike, awk sed or easier: grep
[10:57] <praecox> VSpike, grep?
[10:57] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, now i cant mount it.
[10:57] <Rebecca> oooh
[10:57] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: sorry, misread
[10:57] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, that sounds bad for me
[10:58] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: try running cfdisk /dev/sda
[10:58] <Rebecca> and see what's on it partition wise
[10:58] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, should be nothing on it.
[10:59] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: you are certain of this?
[10:59] <Terrasque> there should be one partition
[10:59] <BVBBQ> Rebecca,   i just bought it.
[10:59] <defcon> yo when I dont have firestarter running do I still have a firewall up
[10:59] <defcon> or do I need to set it up for autostart
[10:59] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: make no assumption. check it
[11:00] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, i just bought it and havnt put anything on it yet. reformatting and deleting everything on it is a ok
[11:00] <rollerskatejamms> Is there a way to make it so that booting into recovery mode requires a password? Because right now it just gives you passwordless root on the system and that's very silly.
[11:00] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: check it......
[11:00] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: report back what partitions it has
[11:01] <habeeb> rollerskatejamms: yes
[11:01] <bintut> is there an ongoing ubuntu-embedded development?  ==> https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-May/000289.html
[11:02] <habeeb> rollerskatejamms: moment, I'll try to find it.
[11:02] <rollerskatejamms> habeeb: thanks!
[11:02] <habeeb> rollerskatejamms: that's the point of the recovery mode, tho... weird but thats the point.
[11:02] <HiddenHax> Mae
[11:02] <rollerskatejamms> habeeb: yes but it should give you root WITH a password
[11:02] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, i cant open it. i cant mount it. so checking it is unpossible.  under part type it says "primary" and there is a pri/log
[11:02] <rollerskatejamms> habeeb: Not just let anybody reboot your computer and get root on it. That's crazy.
[11:03] <mskadu> hello people
[11:03] <rollerskatejamms> habeeb: I'm not just sitting at my desk watching over it all day every day.
[11:03] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: have you run this "cfdisk /dev/sda"as i said?
[11:03] <HiddenHax> hello
[11:03] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, thats where i scried this information.
[11:03] <mskadu> can anyone point me to some docs on installing ubuntu using VMware server?
[11:03] <mantice> Can some one help me get my PowerShot A430 Camera working, It pops up and it finds the drivers and such it just does not read the filesystem.
[11:03] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: You want to install ubuntu in vmware or vmware in ubuntu?
[11:03] <mskadu> ubuntu in vmware
[11:03] <HiddenHax> foreal?
[11:03] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: So just do it . . .
[11:04] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: It's just like installing it on a regular pc.
[11:04] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  I did, Am having some problems
[11:04] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: such as?
[11:04] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  I thought so too
[11:04] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  Wel, for one the installer goes through fine
[11:04] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  but conks when it tries to write GRUB
[11:04] <HiddenHax> how do u type peoples nicks soo fast
[11:04] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: okay. so you have 1 primary partition?
[11:04] <okay> hi
[11:04] <rollerskatejamms> HiddenHax: tab completion
[11:04] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  saying could not write to /target/ ??
[11:05] <HiddenHax> hello
[11:05] <mskadu> HiddenHax:  Xchat (type first few chars and hit tab) ;)
[11:05] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: try checking "ls -lah /dev/sda*"
[11:05] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, yesh, but this is only for holding mp3's so it doesnt need to be fancy
[11:05] <HiddenHax> awesome thanks rollerskatejamms
[11:05] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: Hmm. Did you create an "advanced" virtual machine, or just use the default and set it to Ubuntu
[11:05] <mskadu> HiddenHax:  and the up and down arrow key helps ;)
[11:05] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: Is there an error message?
[11:05] <HiddenHax> ops
[11:05] <mskadu> Well, i used a default
[11:05] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: But you set it to ubuntu righ
[11:06] <Stonekeeper> hi! which channel is available for ubuntu server?
[11:06] <rollerskatejamms> right*?

[11:06] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  yep
[11:06] <rollerskatejamms> Stonekeeper: this one :-P
[11:06] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: Hmm . . . try removing the hard drive in the virtual machine and adding an IDE drive or something. Also are you installing off a CD or did you mount an ISO in vmware/
[11:06] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: I mean a virtual ide drive of course.
[11:07] <rollerskatejamms> habeeb: any luck finding that?
[11:07] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: well, assuming you ran mkfs.vfat correctly it should be mountable. how are you trying to mount it?
[11:07] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  no, vmware sets it to SCSI by default
[11:07] <Stonekeeper> ok. Thanks. I got a MAJOR issue. After powercuts, one of my severs is playing up. It says disk space is 100% but I know it's not from booting a live CD. Also I get "df: Warning: cannot read table of mounted filesystem" errors when i try df. Any ideas?
[11:07] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, clicking the mount button
[11:07] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: I know it does. Try an ide drive
[11:07] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, double clicking on it.
[11:07] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: Are you installing from CD or ISO?
[11:07] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  how does one do that?
[11:07] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, and asking really really nicely.
[11:07] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  ISO
[11:07] <Stonekeeper> any idea anyone?
[11:07] <SmSpillaz> !ping
[11:07] <ubotu> pong
[11:07] <clever> [SmSpillaz PING reply] : 890milisec
[11:07] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  mounted in the vmwareconfig
[11:07] <rollerskatejamms> mskadu: Edit the virtual machine's settings, you can add and remove hardware.

[11:08] <mskadu> rollerskatejamms:  let me give that a shot
[11:08] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, what will that do?
[11:09] <rollerskatejamms> Ok habeeb can you do me a favor. Coincidentally I'm in recovery mode right now. So I have no way to copy those links. Can you email them to zach@brainlink.com
[11:09] <brubrub> hi room
[11:09] <rollerskatejamms> I'd really apprecaite it
[11:09] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: make a mount point and try to mount the drive to it.. oh, you would need to use sudo or login as root to do it
[11:09] <habeeb> rollerskatejamms: well, you can... but ok.
[11:09] <rollerskatejamms> BVBBQ: sudo -i first
[11:09] <rollerskatejamms> habeeb: How?
[11:09] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, when i try to mount it. i get this message "mkdir /mnt/music; mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /mnt/music"
[11:09] <rollerskatejamms> habeeb: Aside from paper
[11:09] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, oops
[11:09] <habeeb> rollerskatejamms: open another terminal, and do /etc/init.d/gpm start
[11:10] <rollerskatejamms> habeeb: I don't have a "screen" going and I only have one tty
[11:10] <BVBBQ> rebecca, mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1,
[11:10] <rollerskatejamms> habeeb: recovery mode only has one terminal
[11:10] <habeeb> rollerskatejamms: aw
[11:10] <habeeb> didn't know that
[11:10] <rollerskatejamms> So if I want to do that I have to quit irssi
[11:10] <habeeb> well, ok, I'm sending htem.
[11:10] <rollerskatejamms> Anyway I'm going to reboot into non recovery mode. I'm shocked that ndiswrapper worked in recovery mode.
[11:10] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: try autofs instead of vfat
[11:10] <rollerskatejamms> I justwanted to see what happened in recovery mode :-D
[11:10] <rollerskatejamms> brb
[11:10] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: also, did the mkfs.vfat complete without errors?
[11:11] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, it didnt say any errors. i will find the output.
[11:11] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, rylan@rylan-desktop:~$ mkfs.vfat /dev/sda1
[11:11] <BVBBQ> mkfs.vfat 2.11 (12 Mar 2005)
[11:11] <mployee8_> Has anyone had any problems with feisty crashing
[11:11] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, thats all it said to me.
[11:11] <mantice> Can some one help me out with my camera ? I know its supported it just dont work.
[11:11] <brubrub> i have a problem with ssh, when i connect to a server in my pc i read "ssh: Connection refused port 22", anyone can help me?, (Sorry for my english, im spanish :_) )
[11:12] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: um.. is it still going?
[11:12] <mantice> My camera worked once then it stoped.
[11:12] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, no it stopped almost instantly.
[11:12] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: try it again
[11:12] <larsemil> i have a sound problem - with no sound - since i updated to feisty. it goes away by restarting computer. anyone got an idea on how to restart the sounddaemon without rebooting?
[11:12] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, same command?
[11:12] <Rebecca> yeah
[11:12] <RawSewage> Can you have different wallpapers for different workspaces
[11:12] <brubrub> eeeoooo..., anyone can help me please?  :_(
[11:13] <Rebecca> brubrub: is ssh running on it?
[11:13] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, still same effect.
[11:13] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, waits like 1.5 seconds and then new command line pops up
[11:13] <brubrub> Rebecca yes, but can i know if the server is runnning?
[11:14] <brubrub> to secure me please
[11:14] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: try it with the -v switch
[11:14] <magnetron> !ask | brubrub
[11:14] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, go easy on me. so mkfs.vfat -v /dev/sda1 ?
[11:14] <Rebecca> brubrub: ps auwx | grep sshd
[11:14] <ubotu> brubrub: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:14] <larsemil> no way to restart the sounddaemon?
[11:14] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: yes
[11:15] <brubrub> well i need to go
[11:15] <brubrub> sorry, see all bye
[11:15] <Myrtti> larsemil: /etc/init.d/alsa-utils restart
[11:16] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, looks like it worked. but infact it did not.
[11:16] <larsemil> Myrtti, wonderful!
[11:17] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: how big is the drive?
[11:17] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, 60gig
[11:17] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: are you certain the drive actually works?
[11:18] <RawSewage> Can you have different wallpapers for different workspaces
[11:18] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, before i started trying to reformat i could mount it and read it. now i cannot.
[11:18] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: try wiping the partition table and start again
[11:18] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, how.
[11:19] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: cfdisk is handy
[11:19] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: how are you getting on?
[11:20] <Stonekeeper> HELP!!!! What causes: "df: Cannot read table of mounted file systems" !!!?!!?!?
[11:20] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, its not getting on. i cannot mount. mounting is important.
[11:20] <gordonjcp> hrm
[11:20] <gordonjcp> what exactly does it say when you try to mount it?
[11:20] <BVBBQ> rebecca, what exactly do i need to do
[11:20] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: start by reading the man page
[11:21] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, ok here goes. mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1,
[11:21] <BVBBQ>        missing codepage or other error
[11:21] <BVBBQ>        in some cases useful info is found in syslog - try

[11:26] <mskadu> skylight:  for future reference, you can find packages at command line using --> apt-cache search java
[11:26] <gordonjcp> MenZa: you could unmount it and remount in ~/music, or you could symlink it
[11:26] <DJNutte> what you are the noob
[11:27] <mskadu> skylight:  which should give you package names containing java
[11:27] <MenZa> gordonjcp: hmm, symlink sounds good - ln /media/disk/Musik ~/musik ?
[11:27] <skylight> let me try that
[11:27] <mskadu> skylight:  select the one thar sounds right and then do a --> apt-get install {that package name}

[11:29] <aboeysa> salamo alikom
[11:30] <skylight> thanks it looks like its installing
[11:30] <MenZa> Myrtti: keep your guard up, though ;)
[11:31] <Myrtti> sure
[11:32] <mskadu> skylight:  you are welcome ;)
[11:32] <mskadu> skylight:  you might want to look up automatix2, though not everyone's particularly fond of it. makes routine installations a snap
[11:32] <mskadu> !automatix2
[11:32] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[11:33] <mskadu> !WorksForMe
[11:33] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.

[11:33] <sedra> hi
[11:36] <skylight> ok heres the problem, I go online to poker room.com and try to play poker, every time i do that , they always tell me theres not java installed, and ITS BULL SHIT.
[11:36] <skylight> Cause it is installed an i knopw it
[11:36] <spikeb> skylight: you're SURE the plugin package is installed as well?
[11:36] <gordonjcp> MenZa: ln -s
[11:36] <skylight> and i guess there wanting me to install a plugin
[11:37] <skylight> Java runtime enviorment
[11:37] <MenZa> gordonjcp: ah
[11:37] <skylight> but i dont know shit about it
[11:37] <Myrtti> install the plugin too
[11:37] <Myrtti> and please, mind your language
[11:37] <skylight> but where
[11:37] <mskadu> skylight:  ahh .. are u using firefox?
[11:37] <DBO> sky_walkie, can you please watch the swearing
[11:37] <DBO> oops...  oh well Myrtti got it
[11:37] <gordonjcp> skylight: did you install the jre *plugin*?
[11:37] <spikeb> skylight: you want the package sun-java6-plugin (if you're on 7.04)
[11:37] <mskadu> skylight:  u need to install java plugin for firefox
[11:38] <crssout> hi guys, I can't log on, it fails to load anything :s
[11:38] <crssout> last thing I did was change the host name
[11:38] <gordonjcp> skylight: you also must close all instances of firefox and restart it before the plugin is picked up
[11:38] <skylight> oh wait
[11:38] <jscinoz> I'm having a minor problem with my login splashscreen, I still use the default but the splash is surrounded by black and makes it look out of place, is there a way to fix this?
[11:38] <skylight> hold on
[11:38] <spikeb> sun-java5-plugin package for edgy and probably dapper.
[11:38] <Enverex|LT> This Ubuntu/Dell thing is already causing issues, people on the forums seem to think that they can't just buy any laptop and put Linux on it >.<
[11:39] <Deffy> wow, busy even at 5:30am :) this is good
[11:39] <Myrtti> crssout: reboot to rescue and change both /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts the same
[11:39] <stefg> crssout: there's two files involved: /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts ... they must hold the same name for 127.0.0.1
[11:39] <spikeb> Enverex|LT: they can't.
[11:39] <Myrtti> crssout: you need to have the same in both
[11:39] <spikeb> Enverex|LT: if they want it to work decently.
[11:39] <skylight> http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/web/sun-java5-plugin
[11:40] <Myrtti> you can get to the rescue mode by pressing esc when GRUB is loading
[11:40] <skylight> thats where i am some one guide me threw it
[11:40] <Myrtti> right after your bios check
[11:40] <Deffy> I have a quick (I hope) network question/issue
[11:40] <Enverex|LT> spikeb, Yes, they can. Just because it's not "UBuntu certified" it doesn't mean that it has parts that wont work
[11:40] <skylight> nvm
[11:40] <crssout> ok in the file what it must contain has to look like "name 127.0.0.1"?
[11:40] <skylight> i used the termals apt-get
[11:40] <Enverex|LT> spikeb, This laptop is a 6 year old Clevo thing, everthing in it works happily in Linux, as does my moms Thinkpad
[11:40] <skylight> its working
[11:40] <spikeb> Enverex|LT: there are PLENTY of laptops that will give you a massive migrane trying to install and configure linux on.
[11:41] <Myrtti> crssout: and the other one just "name"
[11:41] <skylight> ok i think it worked, wish me luck
[11:41] <Enverex|LT> spikeb, Not if you check to see if they have parts that work under Linux first,
[11:41] <Deffy> basically with my wireless card in (laptop) when I reboot, my ethernet port doesn't display an ip addy in ifconfig and I can't do anything with it
[11:41] <spikeb> Enverex|LT: now that is a good idea.
[11:41] <Joe`> hi
[11:41] <spikeb> Enverex|LT: but the point of dell (or system76, or any other linux vendor) machines is you dont HAVE to check.
[11:41] <Deffy> in the GUI it says it has the static IP I set earlier
[11:42] <crssout> ah ok so hostname="name" and hosts="name 127.0.0.1"? I need to make sure I been at this prob for a few hours
[11:42] <Deffy> I can get it to work by doing sudo ifconfig eth0 ipaddy
[11:42] <Myrtti> hosts might have something else too
[11:42] <Deffy> but damn it's annoying
[11:42] <Myrtti> mut 127.0.0.1 line should be name 127.0.0.1
[11:42] <BVBBQ> im back!
[11:42] <skylight> it worked, YAH
[11:42] <skylight> thanks for the help people
[11:42] <BVBBQ> Rebecca,  you still there? i broke the interweb
[11:43] <crssout> k i'll take a look, brb
[11:43] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, you there?
[11:43] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: yup
[11:43] <BVBBQ> ok
[11:43] <Deffy> I'm beginning to wonder if you guys can even hear me 0_o
[11:43] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, sorry my internet cancled itself. must be all the nirvana im downloading.
[11:44] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, so. removable harddrive is still not working
[11:44] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: heh
[11:44] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: when you formatted it, did you get any errors?
[11:44] <skylight> ok im off by
[11:44] <Rebecca> BVBBQ: indeed
[11:45] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, none except when i try to mount.
[11:45] <gordonjcp> strange
[11:45] <mantice> Is it just me or does kde a bit slow on 256 ddr ram ?
[11:45] <gordonjcp> mantice: 256 is probably not really enough for KDE with fully shiny
[11:46] <mantice> What about gnome.
[11:46] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: so it completed the formatting properly?
[11:46] <mantice> alot of my programs are crashing eg ktorrent :(
[11:46] <gordonjcp> mantice: again, you couldn't really run it with the full shinyness on
[11:46] <mantice> Im thinking of formating back to gnome.
[11:46] <gordonjcp> 256M isn't really a lot these days
[11:46] <mantice> lies. :)
[11:46] <gordonjcp> maybe you could try Xubuntu?
[11:46] <BVBBQ> Rebecca, oddly, when i went downstairs to yell at the minions on the ground floor and tried plugging it into my xbox360 and plugging it back into the computer it works now.
[11:46] <Deffy> I like Xfce :)
[11:46] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: ah, I meant to say
[11:46] <spikeb> xfce is pretty nice nowadays
[11:46] <BVBBQ> thanks all for the help. looks like my xbox formatted it nicely.
[11:47] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: sometimes after you format, you need to unplug and then plug it back in
[11:47] <gordonjcp> BVBBQ: oh, the Xbox formatted it?
[11:47] <BVBBQ> gordonjcp, no no no. it was the xbox im sure of it.
[11:47] <gordonjcp> fair enough ;-) that's easier then
[11:50] <mantice> kde is not that slow, gnome on 6.** was good
[11:50] <Deffy> Well atleast my coworkers will be impressed that I've got IE6 running in Linux
[11:51] <mantice> Deffy: The whole point of having linux is so you can get away from that =P, still cool though.
[11:51] <Deffy> oh no
[11:51] <Deffy> I need it to configure medical devices for work
[11:51] <Deffy> see they use a web based interface to configure
[11:52] <mantice> yeah
[11:52] <Deffy> but ofcourse they never tested it with anyother browser but IE6
[11:52] <mantice> lol
[11:52] <mantice> thats like my modem :(
[11:52] <hawk> Sounds more like an IE interface than a web interface, then :P
[11:52] <Enverex|LT> Deffy, Using IE is definately not something to be proud about
[11:52] <Deffy> so firefox doesn't work, neither does opera, lynx, safari
[11:52] <Enverex|LT> Deffy, and if it's a "web interface" then any browser should work
[11:52] <Deffy> You'd think that would be the case
[11:52] <Enverex|LT> Deffy, Does it need ActiveX?
[11:53] <mantice> lol, xfce looks like it requires 1 gb of ram so much eye candy.
[11:53] <Deffy> but these guys destroyed a nice BusyBox install on these devices to get everything to work
[11:53] <Deffy> well all I know is that it's heavy on the Java
[11:53] <kadakas> how can i view .ASX media streams ?
[11:53] <Enverex|LT> Deffy, Look up ies4linux if you insist on playing into it
[11:54] <Adamantinus> Hey all.
[11:54] <Deffy> Enverex|LT, that's what I use
[11:54] <kadakas> im using Firefox2 with Totem plugin
[11:54] <Deffy> and it's all I use it for
[11:54] <Deffy> otherwise it just sits on the desktop
[11:54] <kadakas> it just wont play asx streams in here: http://h20181.www2.hp.com/plmcontent/NACSC/SML/results.htm?SID=7900045&MEID=0F467F1D-E8C0-4F1B-B6F3-5280081B0A25
[11:54] <Deffy> being mocked by the Xfce mouse
[11:55] <Adamantinus> I've got a flash drive that I was given that is recognised as an 8mb removable floppy drive or something in Windows and cannot be formatted or used in any way. Tried it in Ubuntu, comes up as the same in Computer except it comes up as ChipsBnk Flash Disk.
[11:55] <mantice> omg ktorrent crashed again.
[11:55] <Adamantinus> Is there some way to completely wipe the disk to see if it'll recognise as a flash drive properly?
[11:55] <Deffy> so any thoughts on my networking issue above?
[11:55] <Adamantinus> It's a 2GB I recieved for free because the owner couldn't get it to work, and said if I could fix it, I could keep it.
[11:56] <Adamantinus> "Unable to mount the selected volume. The volume is probably in a format that cannot be mounted."
[11:56] <Adamantinus> <mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sdb, missing codepage or other error, in some cases useful info is found in syslog - try, dmesg | tail  or so
[11:56] <Deffy> 8mb removable floppy....
[11:56] <Adamantinus> Yeah, it looks like a floppy drive, but Windows says it's 8mb.
[11:56] <Deffy> oh...
[11:56] <Adamantinus> Ubuntu says unknown.
[11:56] <Deffy> hmm
[11:56] <Adamantinus> So I got NO idea.
[11:56] <Deffy> I wonder if it was formated wrong
[11:56] <hawk> Adamantinus: Take a look in dmesg, see what it says about it there...
[11:57] <Adamantinus> dmesg?
[11:57] <mantice> its a 1 TB prototype flash drive !!!
[11:57] <Enverex|LT> Adamantinus, Have you actually partitioned and formatted it?
[11:57] <kadakas> what can i use to play .ASX files ?
[11:57] <kadakas> http://h20181.www2.hp.com/plmcontent/NACSC/SML/Media/0F467F1D-E8C0-4F1B-B6F3-5280081B0A25/xe2-mother.asx
[11:57] <Adamantinus> It was given to me as is. I've tried formatting it, it doesn't appear to be partitioned.
[11:57] <Deffy> either that or (somehow) it was formated FAT12 which is what DOS used for Floppies
[11:57] <hawk> Adamantinus: cfdisk -z /dev/sdb (if that's the right device for it), create a single partition of whatever type you prefer, then create a filesystem on that partition... see if that helps
[11:57] <kadakas> VLC, mplayer, totem does not play that
[11:58] <Adamantinus> Tried to format as FAT32, said not enough space, tried FAT, errored me.
[11:58] <Adamantinus> Can't format it in doze, dunno how in Ubuntu.
[11:58] <Adamantinus> hawk, hmmkay.
[11:58] <Deffy> cfdisk or qparted if you need a mouse
[11:58] <Adamantinus> How do I make sure it's /dev/sdb?
[11:58] <nikusan> Hi all, usb external hdd with ext3 permission mounts with owner root, so it's read only for the regular user... fix?
[11:59] <Adamantinus> Oh, and if I right click the "drive" and go properties, it says "Type: desktop configuration file"
[11:59] <Enverex|LT> Adamantinus, Use fdisk on it and set it up then
[11:59] <Gnea> nikusan: chmod
[11:59] <Enverex|LT> Gnea, DONT do that
[11:59] <Gnea> Enverex|LT: pardon?
[12:00] <nikusan> Gnea, I don't think that's what I want
[12:00] <Deffy> nikusan: chown?
[12:00] <Enverex|LT> nikita, Mount it with user read/write permissions, i.e. -o umask=0000
[12:00] <Adamantinus> Can I make sure it's /dev/sdb before I fdisk?
[12:00] <Flannel> Gnea: chmod/chown is not the answer.  mounting options are.
[12:00] <Enverex|LT> arg
[12:00] <Enverex|LT> nikusan, , Mount it with user read/write permissions, i.e. -o umask=0000
[12:00] <Gnea> ah, good point
[12:00] <Enverex|LT> Gnea, Changing the permissions on every file is mad
[12:00] <Gnea> thanks
[12:00] <nikusan> Enverex|LT, can I make whatever is automounting it do that itself?
[12:01] <sivaji>  how can i change themes
[12:01] <Gnea> Enverex|LT: not necessarily
[12:01] <Adamantinus> Can I copy paste the error that fdisk gave me here?
[12:01] <Deffy> well I gotta get ready for work
[12:01] <Adamantinus> It's 6 lines.
[12:02] <Enverex|LT> Adamantinus, No
[12:02] <Enverex|LT> Adamantinus, Use a pastebin
[12:02] <Adamantinus> wtf is a pastebin?
[12:02] <Gnea> !pastebin
[12:02] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:03] <Adamantinus> Ooh nice.
[12:03] <Adamantinus> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20772/
[12:03] <Adamantinus> Now it's asking for a command.
[12:04] <usuaria> ola
[12:04] <crssout> hi guys I still can't log in, on /etc/hosts were does the new host name go?

[12:06] <crssout> i have been at this for 3 hours now :(, ever since I changed the host name it wont let me log on
[12:08] <peacemaker> helo
[12:08] <Deffy> is it alright if I idle while at work?
[12:08] <maarten> 501 Syntactically invalid HELO argument(s)
[12:08] <Enverex|LT> Deffy, You think the other 1100 people in here are all active? heh
[12:08] <peacemaker> can i have help please
[12:08] <Enverex|LT> !ask | peacemaker
[12:08] <ubotu> peacemaker: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[12:09] <Adamantinus> Eh, it wants to reboot to use a new table or something.
[12:09] <sivaji> how to use samba
[12:10] <highvoltage> how to speak in full sentences
[12:10] <peacemaker> how to upgrade to ubuntu 5.10 to 6.04
[12:10] <aleX-xx> 7.04?
[12:10] <aleX-xx> :)
[12:10] <sivaji> change u r reposittory
[12:10] <sivaji> peacemaker :
[12:10] <CheshireViking> !upgrade > peacemaker
[12:10] <pyrohotdog> peacemaker: sudo apt-get dist-upgrade
[12:11] <Deffy> ok
[12:11] <peacemaker> ok
[12:11] <Deffy> oh one more quick question
[12:11] <IdoIL> can some1 guide me on how to connect my PPPoE connection ?
[12:11] <crssout> yeah, I changed the host name, now I can't log on, how can I make it work again?
[12:11] <peacemaker> and how to use samba?
[12:12] <Deffy> I've got an Atheros chipset wifi card (cardbus) and I'm using whatever driver Ubuntu installed by default
[12:12] <Deffy> it's says it's the proprietary one, that means it's prolly not Madwifi but something else, right?
[12:12] <CheshireViking> !samba | peacemaker
[12:12] <ubotu> peacemaker: samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[12:12] <nikusan> Enverex|LT, I'd like to fix the automounting instead of changing the mount options in fstab or somewhere like that. The external disk gets shared around, and I've got another one just like it that mounts with user permissions all by itself
[12:13] <crssout> sigh
[12:13] <Enverex|LT> nikusan, Not entirely sure how to do it with automounting, sorry
[12:13] <Enverex|LT> Deffy, Yeah, that'll be MadWiki
[12:13] <peacemaker> thank u
[12:13] <Enverex|LT> er, wifi
[12:13] <IdoIL> samba will help me with pppoe ?
[12:13] <Deffy> hmmm ok
[12:14] <crssout> why would changing host name screw u up from logging in, its like it just doesn't load anything?
[12:14] <Deffy> then maybe it's the card
[12:14] <maarten> !pppoe | IdoIL

[12:17] <Deffy> I'll probably be better equipped (laptop actually on, not in my bag) to deal with it later tonight
[12:17] <sivaji> can i browse my friends computer if i know his ip add
[12:17] <peacemaker> i want to know if Ubuntu 6.10 CD exits?
[12:17] <crssout> hi, need an answer, I can't log on after changing the host name, why? I changed it through the gui network app
[12:18] <Gnea> Has anyone tried any of those off-the-shelf VoIP phones with debian?  Like the ones at Walmart in the electronics department?
[12:18] <sivaji> yes peacemaker
[12:18] <Gnea> crssout: login to what? X or console?
[12:18] <sivaji> peacemaker what is u r problem
[12:18] <crssout> Gnea: Gnome, fist log on screwn, it stays blank like if nothing loaded
[12:18] <peacemaker> i want to request ubuntu 6.10 CD? if it's possible?
[12:19] <Gnea> crssout: did you try rebooting?
[12:19] <sivaji> !shipit -> peacemaker
[12:19] <sivaji> !shipit
[12:19] <peacemaker> shipit give 7.04 CD
[12:19] <ubotu> shipit is a service that sends free Ubuntu, Kubuntu and Edubuntu CDs. See http://shipit.ubuntu.com/ and http://shipit.kubuntu.org and http://shipit.edubuntu.org - Shipit will send Feisty (7.04) CDs
[12:19] <crssout> Gnea: yes many times, I tried a few suggestions so far, seem to be missing the mark though
[12:20] <Gnea> crssout: can you login to the console?
[12:20] <sad> mowi ktos po polsku>?
[12:20] <crssout> Gnea: last suggestion was to make sure the dommain name was the same in /etc/hostname and /etc/hosts...If I seletct the terminal session yes
[12:21] <Gnea> crssout: so what is in /etc/hostname now?
[12:21] <peacemaker> so it's not possible to request 6.10 CD? if yes give me please the way?
[12:21] <crssout> Gnea: all there is is crossout
[12:22] <crssout> Gnea: I get confused on what should be in /etc/hosts
[12:22] <PriceChild> peacemaker, no, only 7.04 You can still download 6.10 though
[12:22] <peacemaker> ok
[12:22] <peacemaker> thank u
[12:23] <Gnea> crssout: /etc/hosts is nothing more than a mapping of IP addresses to hostnames - typically, it's: <IP> <Hostname.domain> <alias of hostname>
[12:23] <Gorlist> Morning
[12:23] <Gorlist> Yesterday tried to install MythTV Frontend,
[12:23] <sivaji> peacemaker u can upgrade
[12:23] <Gorlist> went in fine but on the first config I forgot to log out
[12:24] <Gnea> crssout: so this wouldn't be out of the ordinary: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost   and then   192.168.1.1 crossout.yourdomain.tld crossout
[12:24] <Gorlist> now when I try to use it comes up with cannot connect to mysql backend?
[12:24] <Gorlist> any suggestions?
[12:24] <Gnea> crssout: or something along those lines.  also check /etc/mailname
[12:24] <flyback> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6KBOBsDL7FI <--- awesome
[12:24] <Gnea> flyback: is that the compiz/beryl vid?
[12:25] <flyback> no it's not even linux sorry :P
[12:25] <crssout> Gnea: k originaly all ther was was 127.0.0.1 local host
[12:25] <flyback> just awesome
[12:25] <Haza1> Hello folks. I wonder if someone can help me install Ubuntu Server edition using Raid? - i am completely lost =(
[12:25] <crssout> Gnea: and 127.0.1.1 crososut
[12:25] <crssout> Gnea: after that the ipv6 mumble jumble
[12:25] <Gnea> crssout: ok that doesn't look right at all.
[12:25] <Gnea> crssout: it should be: 127.0.0.1 localhost
[12:26] <ziroday> hi can ubuntu run on  these specs : Pentium PIII, 6GB Harddisk, 64MB RAM
[12:26] <Gnea> crssout: do you have a 192.168.x.x ip or an internet ip?
[12:26] <Haza1> I have setup my raid array in the post and i start to have problems when i try and install the software raid during the ubuntu installation process
[12:26] <crssout> Gnea: yes router ip i guess
[12:27] <crssout> Gnea: its dinamic though
[12:27] <Gnea> crssout: ok, then you should set crossout to whatever the 192 ip is
[12:27] <crssout> Gnea: does it mater if its DCHP?
[12:27] <Gnea> crssout: yeah but it's 192 so it's not likely to change really... maybe once every what, 8 months?
[12:27] <Gnea> crssout: nah should be fine
[12:28] <larson9999> i got my super cow powers! finally!!
[12:28] <Gnea> crssout: you should be able to configure your router to remember the mac address
[12:28] <crssout> Gnea: k ill give it a go, be back soon, nothing has worked so far :S, yes I can do that
[12:28] <crssout> Gnea: should I configure it?
[12:28] <Gnea> crssout: yeah
[12:30] <byron> hello
[12:30] <ziroday> hi can ubuntu run on  these specs : Pentium PIII, 6GB Harddisk, 64MB RAM? Thanks in advance
[12:31] <flyback> no
[12:31] <flyback> not enough ram
[12:31] <flyback> the rest of the specs are pretty decent
[12:31] <crssou1> Gnea: is there a way to just put the mac adress instead of the ip?
[12:31] <flyback> ziroday get some more ram
[12:31] <ziroday> flyback: is the ram only needed for live cd
[12:32] <flyback> heck no
[12:32] <ziroday> flyback: dammit
[12:32] <Gnea> crssou1: if you secure it right, yeah
[12:32] <flyback> linux desktops usually work best on 128 and up
[12:32] <ziroday> flyback: thanks
[12:32] <flyback> dude
[12:32] <flyback> 128 is like $13 us if you look around
[12:32] <flyback> it can't be that bad in .sg either
[12:32] <rysiek|pl> guys, what is the *easiest* way of determining what is the currently set-up gateway on a given network iface?
[12:32] <ziroday> flyback: yeah ill talk to my client then. they hate upgrading thier comps
[12:32] <flyback> ziroday is this a laptop?
[12:32] <byron> i really got a problem with hibernate on my laptop, it suspends and the powerLED blinks fine but when it returns I'll get a black display and the system freezes. So what can I do to solve this problem?
[12:33] <flyback> ziro there are small lightweight linuix distros that might run on that
[12:33] <Gnea> rysiek|pl: open a terminal, type: ip r  look for whatever 'default' is pointing to
[12:33] <flyback> or you could turn it into a thin client
[12:33] <mdkaneda55> ziroday: xubuntu installation (with xfce) might work for ya, it worked on my old machine =)
[12:33] <rysiek|pl> Gnea: great, just what I needed, thanks!
[12:33] <ziroday> mdkaneda55: how much ram?
[12:33] <flyback> ziroday, if you lived near me i'd give you a stick or something :p
[12:34] <ziroday> flyback: lol
[12:34] <rysiek|pl> crssou1: why would you need that?
[12:34] <ziroday> flyback: thxs
[12:34] <mdkaneda55> ziroday: can't remember what i ran it on, but it requires less than gnome/kde, xubuntu.com i think has specs
[12:34] <flyback> ziroday if that's a laptop i'd defintely spent the $20 to get it up to 128 or so
[12:34] <ziroday> flyback: but im in asia so i doubt it
[12:34] <flyback> p3 laptop will still put up a hell of a fight
[12:35] <flyback> desktop is so/so depends what your client thinks
[12:35] <ziroday> flyback: no desktop running 98 or NT rite now
[12:35] <zak_> are there any desktop gmail clients or email clients that specifically support gmail [without POP emulation] ?
[12:35] <Karotte> oweia
[12:35] <flyback> ziroday there is also the thin client option
[12:35] <Karotte> oh sorry wrong window
[12:35] <flyback> with NX
[12:35] <flyback> anyways gotta get ready for work
[12:35] <flyback> peace
[12:35] <crssou1> rysiek|pl: been trying to get my self to log on, not sure how to secure it though first im gona tryi previus suggestions see if that works
[12:35] <ziroday> flyback: my clients want it perfect otherwise theyre gonna go get a shiny vista (dammit)
[12:35] <flyback> ick
[12:35] <flyback> although
[12:35] <flyback> vista > win9x
[12:35] <ziroday> flyback: sweet thanks a load cya
[12:35] <flyback> by 100x :)
[12:36] <flyback> only because win9x was such a unstable pos
[12:36] <rysiek|pl> flyback: not on Celeron 333 ;)
[12:36] <ziroday> mdkaneda55: ill check it out thanx
[12:36] <crssou1> k brb
[12:36] <flyback> rysiek|pl, i'd rather run vista on a 333 than win9x
[12:36] <flyback> I can't stand win9x
[12:36] <flyback> I been a tech 15+ yrs
[12:36] <flyback> i can't even look at the cd
[12:36] <rysiek|pl> flyback: I can't stand windoze whatsoever
[12:36] <flyback> after all the 1000's of reloads I did over the yrs
[12:36] <flyback> :P
[12:36] <rysiek|pl> precisely
[12:36] <flyback> vmware is changing all this :)
[12:37] <flyback> learning that at work and using it
[12:37] <flyback> it's awesome

[12:38] <matahari> would it be possible if anyone of you could create a ubuntu/debian package for translate-toolkit 0.11 ?
[12:38] <matahari> (for dapper)
[12:38] <webwolf_27> does anybody know if it's possible to create a multi-language video-dvd with qdvdauthor
[12:38] <ziroday> ha i can run it in xubuntu with 64mb of ram
[12:38] <ziroday> like just
[12:38] <ziroday> my clients aint gonna like that
[12:38] <ziroday> mind you theyve been usin 98
[12:38] <flyback> i'd stick with nt4 for now if you can't otherwise
[12:38] <flyback> it's better than win9x
[12:38] <flyback> but linux woul dbe best :)
[12:39] <Deffy> nah man
[12:39] <Deffy> Win 3.1 FTW!
[12:39] <dav7> absolutely :D

[12:41] <Kix> Help, anyone. I've currently compiled and installed the "sl-modem" drivers. They work great! However. I was wondering if anyone knows a way to automatically start the 'slmodemd' daemon on boot?
[12:41] <driverx> I've installed gpodder but when it downloads podcasts, the names on the casts and on the folders look like long strings of hex... anyone know what's up with that?
[12:41] <webwolf_27> Kix, add it to the start scripts
[12:41] <mdkaneda55> ziroday: xubuntu's got easy-setup for all that, i got my mom on linux and she didn't mind the switch, & solved her spyware problems, hehe.
[12:42] <Kix> webwolf_27: Kinda new at this :p What exactly?
[12:42] <flyback> btw I have a client with a PII 400 384 meg of ram
[12:42] <flyback> I want to mabye give them ubuntu instead of win98se badly
[12:42] <flyback> just dunno if they can handle the switch
[12:42] <flyback> will talk to you guys more tonight
[12:43] <Haza1> Any pro's here at setting up Ubuntu using a raid array
[12:44] <webwolf_27> Kix, you can either add it to one of the scripts in /etc/init.d or write you own in that directory, then the correct command wold be (if I remember right) rc-update add <your script> default
[12:44] <foug> my wallpaper diisappered, it's all black, anyone know what i did?
[12:44] <Kix> webwolf_27: :D Thanks
[12:44] <Gnea> foug: you right clicked and messed it up
[12:45] <foug> how to fix?
[12:45] <webwolf_27> Kix, I'd write my own script though so I could easily start/stop/restart the daemon
[12:46] <Kix> webwolf_27: Thanks for you help / advice
[12:46] <webwolf_27> Kix, np, I was a newbie once too
[12:46] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: What kind of RAID array?
[12:46] <Haza1> a striped raid0
[12:46] <Gnea> foug: right click (on the desktop) and unmess it up
[12:46] <Haza1> for better performance yes?
[12:46] <foug> Gnea: doesn't work, neither does changing the wallper
[12:47] <tigger_> anybody got a thinkpad t60 here?
[12:47] <Gnea> foug: you changed the desktop color, not the wallpaper
[12:47] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: I meant as in via dmraid, or md/lvm ?
[12:47] <foug> Gnea: well, right click does nothing still
[12:47] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: and on what hardware (controllers) ?
[12:47] <Gnea> foug: doesn't bring up a menu?
[12:47] <foug> Gnea: yes
[12:48] <Gnea> foug: what WM are you using?
[12:48] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: i really dont know mate. the last time i build a computer it cost 100 for a 10 GB hard drive =/
[12:48] <foug> Gnea: beryl
[12:48] <Haza1> what kind of setup would you recommend for performance?
[12:48] <Pijiu> how do i find out the exact model of my cd drive?
[12:48] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Well, have you got the kit already or are you looking for what to buy?
[12:49] <Haza1> I have all the kit 2x 160 GB SATA HD's
[12:49] <Gnea> foug: no idea. try #beryl
[12:49] <IntuitiveNipple> I've been running RAID1+0 (mirror + stripe) using dmraid on Promise Fastrak controllers for several years. That lets both Windows and Linux co-exist on the RAID array
[12:50] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: well my plan for this machine is a Data server
[12:50] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: okay, so its IDE-SATA so you'll use LVM (logical volume manager) and md, I guess
[12:50] <Haza1> so all i need is linux installed on it with the best performance i can get
[12:50] <IntuitiveNipple> For security, RAID1 (mirror) is the key if you don't want to go the full RAID5 route
[12:51] <Haza1> aye, Raid1 is mirrored yes?
[12:51] <IntuitiveNipple> RAID1 is also much faster for reading than RAID0
[12:51] <nikusan> I've got 2 external usb hdd enclosures with sata hdd's formated with ext3. both are automounted with the options "rw nosuid nodev data=ordered". One is owned by me, the other by root. What is causing the difference?
[12:51] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: yes
[12:51] <pgquiles> wine fails with "err:wgl:X11DRV_WineGL_InitOpenglInfo  couldn't initialize OpenGL, expect problems". Any idea?
[12:51] <Haza1> okay. so what i will do is go and change my raid in POST to a raid1?
[12:51] <hylje> pgquiles: beryl? hardware acceleration?
[12:53] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Hmmm, usually Linux is set to do it all. It depends on what the BIOS setting is actually doing. You should check - it might prevent Linux MD / LVM from working as expected.
[12:53] <pgquiles> hylje: no beryl, plain X with NVidia binary drivers (installed with Ubuntu packages)
[12:53] <hylje> pgquiles: non-wine gl apps work?
[12:53] <pgquiles> hylje: no
[12:53] <K99ubuntu> tets
[12:53] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: There's 2 kinds of RAID - full Hardware RAID (expensive), and so-called fake-RAID or software-RAID where all the logic is in the software.
[12:53] <hylje> pgquiles: you have a problem with hardware acceleration then
[12:53] <pgquiles> hylje: this configuration worked fine in Edgy, fails since I moved to feisty
[12:53] <Gruelius> If i have a printer shared using cups on another computer, what method should i use to connect to it?
[12:53] <Fosco__> nick Vossler
[12:54] <Haza1> ahhh, okay. well mine is software then ;0
[12:54] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: okay. i am sitting in the "VIA Tech. RAID BIOS Utility"
[12:54] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: The problem with BIOS stuff is it might be configuring the RAID format to a proprietary format
[12:54] <K99ubuntu> test
[12:54] <Pijiu> How do I find out the exact model of my cd/dvd drive
[12:55] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: What's the motherboard model number? I'll look it up
[12:55] <defcon> how do I change my database engine
[12:55] <defcon> to sqllite
[12:55] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: i will look it up. 2 mins
[12:55] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: Asus P5VD2-MX
[12:55] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: appreciate all the help btw
[12:56] <IntuitiveNipple> ahhh, lovely Asus :)
[12:56] <martinbr> hey :-) Can anyone help me out making beryl work? when i start it up, i cant move the windows around :-( the cube effect works fine though. Very wierd
[12:56] <IntuitiveNipple> Almost all the mobo's I have are Asus, they often have a Promise Fastrak controller onboard
[12:57] <Gonsalu> hello
[12:58] <Gonsalu> I'm having some problems sharing a printer with a Windows machine...
[12:58] <defcon> how do I change my database engine to sqlite
[12:58] <defcon> ?
[12:59] <Gonsalu> I've added the printer in the ubuntu machine, and in "System > Administration > Printing" I've checked the "Share Printers" in the "Global Settings" menu
[12:59] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: This one? http://www.asus.com/products4.aspx?modelmenu=2&model=1200&l1=3&l2=11&l3=310&l4=0
[12:59] <defcon> !database
[12:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about database - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:59] <defcon> !sqllite
[12:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sqllite - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:59] <defcon> !sqlite
[12:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sqlite - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:59] <SlimeyPete> defcon: by altering your code so that it uses sqlite.
[12:59] <Gonsalu> then, I've added the printer in the same machine as a networked printer using the URI: ipp://172.18.108.35/printers/LaserJet-6L
[12:59] <defcon> could I reinstall ubuntu over ubuntu
[12:59] <defcon> like repair
[01:00] <Gonsalu> and I can successfully print a test page using the networked printer on the ubuntu machine
[01:00] <Wayne_> I just downloaded the newest version of ubuntu ; burned using Nero Burning Rom ; when I goto start up windows xp pro. it does not recoginze the linux disk. CD Rom is set to boot first ; any ideas?!?
[01:00] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: thats the one mate
[01:00] <defcon> reboot brb
[01:00] <highvoltage> defcon: you generally don't need to
[01:00] <Gonsalu> but I've tried to add the printer in the windows machine using the URI http://172.18.108:35:631/printers/LaserJet-6L and it doesn't work
[01:00] <IntuitiveNipple> okay, reading up on the JMicron JMB363 SATA controller now
[01:01] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: cheers, like i said before this all away over my head.
[01:01] <Slart> Wayne_: sounds like you did it right... if CD-rom is set up to boot first it should start ubuntu live version
[01:02] <Wayne_> Yes I never had this problem before I switched back to windows for a whole 3 day's and never had so many problems in my life :(
[01:02] <Wayne_> Any idea slart?
[01:02] <Slart> Wayne_: just checking here... you did burn it as an image right? you didn't just burn the file to a cd?
[01:02] <Wayne_> Yes I burned as a .iso :)
[01:02] <Gruelius> Wayne_: booting enbled in bios?
[01:03] <Wayne_> Yes sir.
[01:03] <Wayne_> I even pressed the "F8" feature lol. I hate windows.
[01:03] <Gruelius> Wayne_: did you pray to the G-Man for some help?
[01:03] <Gruelius> you might want to check the checksums on the disc
[01:03] <Wayne_> Gruelius ; I also did that ;o)
[01:03] <Gruelius> or use imgburn
[01:03] <Slart> there just isn't much else that can go wrong... you had the CD inserted, did a cold boot? just to be sure
[01:03] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Read this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dmraid/+bug/106825
[01:03] <jscinoz> how do i install gtk2 themes from gnome-look.org
[01:03] <Gruelius> Sata cd drive?
[01:04] <Wayne_> Yes it's a sata cd drive
[01:04] <Slart> sata cd drives? they make that now
[01:04] <Slart> ?
[01:04] <rysiek|pl> guys, if I need to add a gateway by hand, i need route add default gw 192.168.x.y (where 192.168.x.y is gw's IP), right?
[01:04] <Gruelius> i win
[01:04] <mboman> rysiek|pl: yes
[01:04] <Gruelius> Wayne_: no old mobo's boot from them
[01:04] <Gruelius> they are all kents
[01:04] <Wayne_> I only have ONE cdrom left ...

[01:04] <rysiek|pl> mboman: ok, thanks
[01:04] <jscinoz> and then?
[01:05] <Gruelius> i have to open my shuttle, lift out the cd/dvd cage, then install a ide burner to boot discs
[01:05] <Gonsalu> any hints ?
[01:05] <Wayne_> Gruelius ; I have a anus a8n5x motherboard ... new.
[01:05] <VoX> hi, how do i force my onboard pata devices to be mounted before the add-on ide card?
[01:05] <Gonsalu> anus haha
[01:05] <Gruelius> Wayne_: Sata Dvd drives are very new :p
[01:05] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: hmmm, i dont remember getting that message. as far as i can remember the furthest i got with the ubuntu Server installation was when i tried to boot the installed OS
[01:05] <Wayne_> And I've installed ubuntu 6.10 before.
[01:05] <Haza1> and got a GRUB Error 17
[01:05] <byron> i really got a problem with hibernate on my laptop, it suspends and the powerLED blinks fine but when it returns It won't wake up completely. so what can I do to solve this problem?
[01:05] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: That'd be because you hadn't installed dmraid.
[01:05] <larsemil> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=443055
[01:06] <highvoltage> /wi/win 13
[01:06] <Wayne_> Blah! Gruelius ; I found an easy solution, just going to install Ubuntu 6.10 agian and update.
[01:06] <Wayne_> Thanks for the help bye.
[01:06] <Gruelius> i doubt that would work
[01:06] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: That's why I asked earlier if you were using dmraid (which is required to work with the JMB363 proprietary RAID metadata format) or use Linux's LVM / MD RAID format
[01:06] <rysiek|pl> Gonsalu: recently I was setting up a HP LaserJet in my job. on Kubuntu - 5mins, done. on windoze - 2 days of heavy fighting with critical losses on both sides. ;)
[01:06] <Gruelius> imo i have never been able to boot from a sata drive
[01:06] <jscinoz> I downloaded the HK Suite theme installer (DEB) from gnome-look.org the theme files are in /usr/share/theme but i cannot select it in sys>prefs>themes
[01:07] <jscinoz> what should i do?
[01:07] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: My instinct would be to ignore the BIOS/JMB363-proprietary fake-RAID and just use Linux LVM / MD
[01:07] <Haza1> okay. i understand now. Well i assume i would want to use the Linux LVM?
[01:07] <Gruelius> rysiek|pl: i got mine working but whenever i print it fking takes 2 mins to print
[01:07] <Haza1> So i shouldnt create the raid array in the RAid BIOS utility?
[01:08] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: I've done a bit of hacking to fix problems in the kernel when using fake-RAID-0 and stripes larger than a single disk. I'm not sure if my patches have reached the mainline kernel yet though.
[01:09] <Gonsalu> rysiek|pl: you succeeded in adding the printer in Windows?
[01:09] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: No, Linux handle it all, that way you've got more support and many more developers to call on if you haave issues etc
[01:09] <highvoltage> xece/win 13
[01:09] <Haza1> Okay, well i have removed my RAid in the Raid bios utility and i have booted the server CD
[01:09] <Haza1> i will just put in the basic language settings ect and then goto the partioning section
[01:09] <rysiek|pl> Gonsalu: aye... simply got HP on the phone
[01:10] <rysiek|pl> Gonsalu: turned out the drivers on the cd where b0rked
[01:10] <crossout> hey I can't log in, dunno why? How can I find out whats wrong?
[01:10] <Gonsalu> I try to access http://172.18.108.35:631/ on ubuntu but it gives a 403 forbidden
[01:10] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: This might help you in the correct direction: http://knowledge76.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Server_Install_With_Software_RAID
[01:10] <rysiek|pl> Gonsalu: and the new ones where in some fscking obscure download location
[01:11] <zlx> my gDesklets crashed and now every time I try to run it it wont load just goes white and stays white ;/ Iv uninstalled it and reinstalled it and its the same, any ideas?
[01:11] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: Ha! thats looks exactly what i was looking for! =D
[01:11] <Gonsalu> It's not a driver issue, because if I move the printer to the windows machine, it prints flawlessly
[01:11] <nomad111> when im using skype i cant listen to my music for some reason how can i resolve this issue?
[01:11] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Now all your decisions is, do you go for a mirror or a stripe or a bit of both :)
[01:11] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Google is your friend :p
[01:11] <Gonsalu> but if I move the printer to the ubuntu machine and try to share it
[01:11] <nomad111> i cant remember how to fix this issue
[01:11] <Gonsalu> I can't add it in the windows machine
[01:11] <rysiek|pl> Gonsalu: but on ubuntu the printer works fine through the net, right?
[01:11] <rysiek|pl> aaah
[01:11] <IntuitiveNipple> nomad111: Sounds as if your ESD isn't enabled/working
[01:11] <Gonsalu> yes
[01:11] <rysiek|pl> 'kay
[01:12] <rysiek|pl> Gonsalu: frankly, I have no idea, sorry :/
[01:12] <crossout> anybody have any ideas how to troubleshoot when you can't log in?, the bakup terminal works, how would I find out why I can't log in?
[01:12] <Gonsalu> alright, thanks anyway
[01:12] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: indeed it is. buts its hard to find what you are looking for when you dont have a clue what you are ment to be doing ;)
[01:12] <Comradin> Ive got a problem with my resolver, I use internal domain names like server1.company.local and my browsers won't open pages like server.company.local. Using nslookup I get a correct answer from my DNS servers. All clients can access the hosts, just my ubuntu box claims to have a problem
[01:12] <Haza1> http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html#1
[01:12] <nomad111> IntuitiveNipple: i cant remember how to fix it
[01:12] <Gonsalu> crossout: try running 'startx' on the backup terminal and see what errors it gives out
[01:12] <nomad111> IntuitiveNipple: used to
[01:12] <Haza1> i have been follow this for a couple of days now without success
[01:12] <Comradin> my resolv.conf looks good
[01:13] <Comradin> search and server statements contain valid values
[01:13] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Oh I know, it's like Douglas Adams wrote: "There's an art, or rather, a knack to flying: the knack is to throw yourself at the ground and miss" :)
[01:13] <crossout> Gonsalu: K Ill update u in a bit
[01:13] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: lol! =)
[01:13] <IntuitiveNipple> nomad111: On ubuntu, System > Preferences > Sound > Sounds > "Enable software sound mixing (ESD)"
[01:14] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: okay. im gonna give this another try and see how far i get
[01:14] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Good luck :)
[01:14] <VoX> hi, how do i force my onboard pata devices to be mounted before the add-on ide card devices?
[01:14] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: cheers
[01:14] <IntuitiveNipple> Vox: It depends on what order the kernel modules load and register their devices
[01:15] <VoX> IntuitiveNipple: ...how do i force that to happen in a specific order?
[01:15] <IntuitiveNipple> VoX: I'm not sure, but if you find out, post the solution in the forums!
[01:15] <VoX> ugh
[01:16] <rysiek|pl> VoX: why not writing your own init script?
[01:16] <VoX> rysiek|pl: because i lack the know-how to do so
[01:16] <rysiek|pl> VoX: just add "noauto" to the drive's options in /etc/fstab
[01:16] <IntuitiveNipple> I'm not sure if it depends on the order of PCI device discovery, or the order the modules are listed someplace, or what!
[01:17] <IntuitiveNipple> rysiek|pl: Ahhh, yes, that would solve the issue if they're not needed at boot-time :)
[01:17] <VoX> ahhhh
[01:17] <VoX> of course
[01:17] <rysiek|pl> huh?
[01:17] <IntuitiveNipple> I was assuming we were talking about during kernel boot
[01:18] <jscinoz> I downloaded the HK Suite theme installer (DEB) from gnome-look.org the theme files are in /usr/share/theme but i cannot select it in sys>prefs>themes, it didnt provide a .tar.gz but just put its folder in /usr/share/themes, what should i do?

[01:21] <IntuitiveNipple> Gorlist: Maybe this will help? http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=379429
[01:22] <IntuitiveNipple> Gorlist: in summary "go to the multimedia preferences and select USB audio for all the outputs and inputs"
[01:22] <Gorlist> thanks, will go through it
[01:23] <Gorlist> where do I find "multimedia preferences"   ??? e.g. if I just click on the volume control ?
[01:23] <IntuitiveNipple> Depending on version, i think it's System > Preferences
[01:24] <larson9999> i don't get it.  i've done everything i can find in all the forums and flash still causes ff to lock up on this machine.

[01:25] <IntuitiveNipple> larson9999: I had the same issue recently with an early release of the Flash 9 plugin. After putting up with it for a while I installed the latest Flash plugin and it cured the issues
[01:25] <rysiek|pl> guys, what is the nice, easy and generic way of downgrading all packages to versions that are present in standard repos, after removing a repo the newer versions came from? apart from indyvidually pinning all 100+ packages, of course ;)
[01:26] <larson9999> IntuitiveNipple: i think i upgraded flash on friday.  i will give it another go.
[01:26] <Gorlist> IntuitiveNipple:  Thanks, its System, Prefs/ Sound Preferences
[01:26] <IntuitiveNipple> larson9999: okay, if you did, that may not be it then
[01:26] <IntuitiveNipple> Gorlist: cool :)
[01:27] <IntuitiveNipple> larson9999: Do you have other FF plugins installed? It's sometimes worth disabling all but Flash and testing. Sometimes you'll find its caused by another plugin interferring
[01:27] <driverx> I've installed java6 from repos and enabled java in Firefox but the java test pages say I need the plugin. ANy ideas?
[01:27] <ths_> Seti??
[01:27] <larson9999> IntuitiveNipple: i'm thinking of installing fresh anyway.  i did my usual upgrade before fresh install.  dapper to edgy was the first time i didn't install fresh after an upgrade.
[01:27] <perlmonkey> hello guys
[01:27] <IntuitiveNipple> larson9999: Eeek! I never trust upgrades :)
[01:28] <larson9999> IntuitiveNipple: i uninstalled ff completely and then reinstalled don't have any other pluggins.
[01:28] <SETI> wha?
[01:28] <IntuitiveNipple> larson9999: Ok, it does sound like a Flash thing then. Sorry I can't be of more help
[01:29] <IntuitiveNipple> driverx: Did you do "about:plugins" in Firefox to see if it thinks the plugin is installed?
[01:30] <driverx> IntuitiveNipple: Yeah - it's not showing up

[01:34] <mdkaneda55> crossout: sounds like it's not mounting your root filesystem, check your /etc/fstab for problems, you'll probably have to boot from live cd & mount your partitions to make changes to /etc/fstab if this is the problem though

[01:37] <VoX> rysiek|pl: didnt fix it
[01:38] <rysiek|pl> VoX: just adding noauto? of course not, you would need a script to mount them afterwards

[01:42] <RockClimber> Earlier today someone in this channel suggested that mkfs.vfat was as difficult as learning Japanese from a dyslexic Algerian. I have done some googling and it seems unlikely that being dyslexic in Algerian(letter based) would affect the part of the brain that causes dyslexia in Japanese (pictogram based language). So infact it was an uneeded slight on dyslexic and Algerian people.

[01:42] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[01:42] <bartmon> AnRkey: No, that doesn't work either. i installed using the alternative CD with a text installer...
[01:43] <crossout> how could I reinstall gnome through terminal?
[01:43] <icecruncher> crossout: sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop
[01:43] <AnRkey> bartmon, does the monitor go into suspend mode? or are you getting an error?
[01:43] <crossout> k thank you :)
[01:44] <Saied> ubotu: i compiled kernel myself
[01:44] <icecruncher> Saied: ubotu is a bot
[01:44] <Saied> icecruncher: piff
[01:44] <RockClimber> !ubotu
[01:44] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[01:44] <gypsymauro> hi
[01:45] <bartmon> AnRkey: With ati there is no error, just a black screen. I can even hear startup sounds for login and when i blindly log in  i can hear gnome loading as well. If i use vesa, i just get an error telling me that no suitable screen was found. Now this tells me that i should go with the ati driver... But how can i get an image?
[01:45] <RockClimber> Chris, do you have trouble choosing which shoes to war?
[01:45] <Tylzen> Hi, I got some issues while playing some various movies that I've got
[01:45] <Tylzen> I have used xvid and/or DIVX to encode my videos
[01:45] <Tylzen> but I am unable to playback
[01:45] <Saied> any idea about kernel boot messages ?
[01:45] <AnRkey> bartmon, that is an odd one
[01:45] <Tylzen> I can hear the sound, and I see the video if I move the window around
[01:46] <RockClimber> Saied, put "quiet" as a kernel option in grub
[01:46] <gypsymauro> I'm trying to use network-manager-vpnc plugin but in the applet I can't see the VPN entry, there is an howto?
[01:46] <mdkaneda55> tylzen: what program are u using to play the video?
[01:46] <AnRkey> bartmon, sounds like you are using a resolution too high for your monitor and it's switching to suspend mode
[01:46] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: totem
[01:46] <bartmon> AnRkey: tell me about it. I got ubuntu when breezy was around and i could upgrade it easily to dapper, edgy and then everything died when i went to feisty.
[01:47] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: and I got the codecs downloaded (Gstream)
[01:47] <Tylzen> And installed
[01:47] <Saied> RockClimber: i have remixed kubuntu live cd and compiled kernel myself. my problem is in live mode. i have used quiet in isolinux.cfg as kernel boot parameter. but some log messages appears
[01:47] <mdkaneda55> Tylzen: you can view the video, but its like stationed in the center or something, and u gotta move the window to just the right spot to catch it, that what u said?
[01:48] <Tylzen>  mdkaneda55: Well if I click the top bar, the video sometimes appear in various qualities, if I make it fullscreen, the mainscreen of totem is still there with some of the video in the background
[01:48] <askand> I hate feisty :( now its even more unstable than before :( it takes like 2 minutes to load the desktop..
[01:49] <mdkaneda55> you can try changing the Output Module to OpenGL... forgot how to do so for totem though, i can search around..
[01:49] <Saied> i have remixed kubuntu live cd and compiled kernel myself. my problem is in live mode. i have used quiet in isolinux.cfg as kernel boot parameter. but some log messages appears
[01:50] <marco_linux> hello
[01:50] <askand> Can someone tell me why feisty suddenly takes 2 minutes to load the desktop?
[01:51] <Frogzoo> askand: bootchart might help you tune bootup time, but 2 minutes is a lot to start from
[01:51] <crossout> thx to whoever helped me last, my ubuntu is fixed :)
[01:52] <askand> Frogzoo: yeah.. it isnt the systemboot that is slow..its loading the desktop that takes time
[01:52] <julius> hi, does someone know how to add a RSS feed to Comic-Screenlet ?
[01:53] <crossout> well cya, just for some of you, I had the problem in wich when I would try to log in nothing will happen, it turned out that ubuntu was failing to load gnome, all I had to do was reinstall the desktop
[01:54] <mwe> you could have probably just reconfigured it, though.
[01:54] <crossout> now that im able to analyze better, I probably screwed up something by messing with a lot of rpms
[01:54] <crossout> k thx cya :)
[01:55] <marco_linux> I have a laptop Compaq V3000 running Ubuntu Feisty Fawn but there's no sound coming out of the speakers. Curiously, the microphone is working fine and I the sound is working with a headphone. Does anyone know what is happening?
[01:55] <fong_> hi can anyone help? i just upgraded to fiesty fawn, and now my wifi's not working!!!
[01:55] <AnRkey> bartmon, try another card :)
[01:55] <fong_> its a laptop....
[01:55] <fong_> i cant do that
[01:55] <rysiek|pl> guys, what is the nice&easy way of downgrading all the packages to standard repo versions after a non-standard repo has been disabled?
[01:55] <fong_> it has to work!
[01:56] <rysiek|pl> fong_: what is the card?
[01:56] <fong_> intel 3945
[01:56] <fong_> huhuhu
[01:56] <rysiek|pl> fong_: intels tend to be well supported, AFAIK
[01:56] <rysiek|pl> hmm
[01:56] <fong_> rysiek, well its listed in the "restricted drivers"
[01:56] <rysiek|pl> fong_: try ndiswrapper?
[01:56] <mwe> can someone running the default feisty kernel please paste the output of 'uname -a'?
[01:56] <rysiek|pl> aah
[01:57] <AnRkey> bartmon, You can also beta test gutsy when it gets to beta and make sure that you will be ok when the stable version is released. I did that and I was able to make sure my laptop works fine with feisty.
[01:57] <rysiek|pl> mwe Linux eclipse 2.6.20-15-generic #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
[01:57] <fong_> rysiek, what's your suggestion?
[01:57] <mwe> thanks
[01:57] <rysiek|pl> fong_: did you install restricted drivers, then?
[01:57] <rysiek|pl> mwe: nop. ;) what for?
[01:57] <fong_> none that i remembered...
[01:57] <rysiek|pl> fong_: do it, then :)
[01:58] <mwe> rysiek|pl: I was wondering if was a preemptive kernel. it's not, I see.
[01:58] <rysiek|pl> !restricted > rysiek|pl
[01:58] <fong_> rysiek, how do i do that?
[01:58] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: you still there mate?
[01:58] <bartmon> AnRkey: I can't replace the card in a laptop! Wish i could though...
[01:58] <rysiek|pl> fong_: try: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:59] <fong_> alright...
[01:59] <fong_> ah weird.. it just worked
[01:59] <fong_> lol
[01:59] <rysiek|pl> ?
[01:59] <fong_> rysiek, newbie here.:D
[02:00] <rysiek|pl> fong_: what just worked :)
[02:00] <fong_> rysiek, my wifi
[02:00] <mdkaneda55> tylzen: ~/.gnome2/totem_config     <--- edit that file (hopfully exsists in fiesty, know it does in dapper)
[02:00] <myriam> Hola
[02:00] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: I'll look for it :D
[02:00] <mdkaneda55> tylzen: replace this line: # video.driver:auto
[02:01] <Frogzoo> bartmon: you can get spares for laptops, contact the manufacturer
[02:01] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: With?
[02:01] <fred__> Hello. Is there any way to download feisty herd3?
[02:01] <mdkaneda55> tylzen: with this line: video.driver:OpenGL
[02:02] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: Where was it suppose to be?
[02:02] <rysiek|pl> fred__: why on earth would you need that?
[02:02] <rysiek|pl> fred__: feisty is stable now
[02:03] <rysiek|pl> fong_: you mean: your card on your box, or "it is stated on the wiki page that my card just works, while it doesn't"? :)
[02:03] <fred__> rysiek|pl : because of that bug, which blocks me https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/+bug/84591
[02:03] <fred__> no persistence working is a no go for me
[02:03] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: I only find a directory filled with plugins
[02:03] <fong_> rysiek, the card on my box is working now...
[02:03] <mdkaneda55> tylzen: hidden /.gnome2/ dir in home
[02:03] <marco_linux> Does anyone know how to make Feisty Fawn produce sound on a Compaq Laptop?
[02:04] <fong_> how do i set WPA2 personal on the wifi now? it only shows WEP
[02:04] <bartmon> Frogzoo: I have a feeling they won't want to replace it because it works in windows.
[02:04] <AnRkey> bartmon, what laptop is it?
[02:04] <bartmon> AnRkey: HP nw8240. It has a FireGL v5000 in it which is in fact a Radeon X700Pro
[02:04] <AnRkey> bartmon, i c
[02:05] <AnRkey> bartmon, if you can get it running it should be cool
[02:05] <rysiek|pl> fred__: you can always mount the disks by hand
[02:05] <bartmon> I'm gonna try two things: first try using the vga driver in xorg.conf
[02:05] <bartmon> then installing fglrx
[02:05] <fong_> is WPA2 supported in ubuntu?
[02:05] <bartmon> and using my old xorg.congf
[02:05] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: :I found a file named Totem nothing else, no _config file in that folder.
[02:05] <fred__> rysiek|pl: ah? you think this should work?
[02:06] <bartmon> fong_: see wpasupplicant
[02:06] <fong_> !wpasupplicant
[02:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about wpasupplicant - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:06] <fred__> rysiek|pl: booting a second computer to test. how would you mount it?
[02:06] <Tylzen> I tried to open the totem file with a text editor, and it was for [State]  mdkaneda55
[02:06] <fong_> bartmon, thanks... will look into it
[02:07] <mdkaneda55> hmm.. does the 'totem' file have a: # video.driver:auto     line?
[02:07] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: : no
[02:07] <mdkaneda55> hm
[02:07] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: Should I try and add one?
[02:07] <AnAnt> can someone help me setting Quotas? I've run edquota, and I got those fields : blocks       soft       hard     inodes     soft     hard  , what are those fields for ?
[02:08] <Pijiu> how do i find out the model of my cd drive?
[02:08] <mdkaneda55> hold on a sec
[02:09] <rysiek|pl> fred__: hmmm... you would have to know your drive's device names
[02:09] <bartmon> fong_: It is text based, it has no graphical interface. I believe there is a graphical tool for WPA(2) keys. Network manager maybe.
[02:09] <fred__> rysiek|pl: ok, i have it
[02:09] <rysiek|pl> fred__: ls -l /dev | grep [hs] d[a-d]  will print you all drive's on the box
[02:09] <Do``> how do i unmount my external usb hdd without the automount hotplugging feature reconnecting it immediately?
[02:10] <AnAnt> can someone help me setting Quotas? I've run edquota, and I got those fields : blocks       soft       hard     inodes     soft     hard  , what are those fields for ?
[02:10] <rysiek|pl> fred__: then - simply make a dir for each of them - like mkdir /media/hda1
[02:10] <IntuitiveNipple> Network Manager worked when I installed Feisty on a PC with an 802.11g card
[02:10] <rysiek|pl> fred__: sorry, that's sudo mkdir /media/hda1
[02:10] <IntuitiveNipple> It prompted for the WPA2 credentials
[02:10] <rysiek|pl> fred__: and then - sudo mount /dev/devicename /mount/dirname
[02:10] <fred__> rysiek|pl: i know how to mount a volume, but i need casper to use the persistence volume correctly. it must not be visible to the system.
[02:10] <zemonsta> hi, mt-daapd gives the following error: Error opening db: No backend database support for type: sqlite   - sqlite is installed!
[02:11] <rysiek|pl> fred__: ah, in that case, I have no idea :/
[02:11] <mdkaneda55> tylzen: video.driver:OpenGL   <--- thats the line u want, if that looks like totem config file, but w/ a different filename im not sure.. u can always change back if it doesnt do anything, hehe
[02:12] <evo> hey
[02:12] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: hehe I'll try :D
[02:12] <fred__> rysiek|pl: bah, do not worry, i woll succeed one day, let it be through an update to feisty or a downgrade, if i ever find a downloadable herd3
[02:12] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: hey man
[02:12] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Have you brought me chocolates ? :)
[02:12] <morpheus> good morning
[02:12] <rysiek|pl> fred__: good luck :)
[02:12] <Haza1> i finally got ubuntu installed on the system but it isnt looking good
[02:12] <evo> I've got a problem with Wireless internet in Ubuntu Fiesty. It won't detect anything, even unsecured networks
[02:12] <icecruncher> morpheus: good evening
[02:13] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: uhoh!
[02:13] <evo> Windows seems fine
[02:13] <fred__> rysiek|pl: heh, thanks, i will need much of it..
[02:13] <Haza1> and yes. i will get you all the choclates you desire =)
[02:13] <Haza1> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/108971
[02:13] <morpheus> lot of problems with the wireless hazal.  you
[02:13] <zemonsta> also, i want to know how to replace the startup Ubuntu feisty loader with the ubuntu studio loading theme
[02:13] <evo> and before I clean installed Fiesty it was fine
[02:13] <Haza1> i serahced the web and that pretty much the problem i am getting on boot
[02:13] <morpheus> hazal you have a broadcom lan wireless
[02:13] <Haza1> *searched
[02:13] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Go on then, i'll take a look :)
[02:13] <evo> I'm using Dell Inspiron 1300
[02:13] <evo> can anybody suggest a solution?
[02:13] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: Well it didn't get worse, nor better
[02:13] <Haza1> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/108971 - thats the link
[02:14] <morpheus> solution for what evo??
[02:14] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: Sound is still there, but no image, well if I move it around, maximize it is there shortly
[02:14] <evo> I can't see any wireless networks
[02:14] <evo> in the applet
[02:14] <evo> or the Manual config tool
[02:14] <mdkaneda55> Tylzen: try getting VLC, should definatly work in there, if not i know how to easily change output module to opengl using vlc =) hehe
[02:14] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Ouch! Can you add a report to that bug report so it gets confirmed ASAP?
[02:15] <morpheus> evo: wireless is hell.  There's a whole article on configuring ndiswrapper for the dell
[02:15] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: Didn't VLC was out for Linux :P My first day with Linux after a 7 yr break
[02:15] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: I'll be installing Feisty the same way on a couple of big servers next week so I may have to fix that for myself, too
[02:15] <evo> I don't use ndiswrapper. It worked out of the box before
[02:15] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: darn
[02:16] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: the good news is, it sounds like a simple script issue to be corrected.
[02:16] <evo> morpheus: I used iwp**** drivers before
[02:16] <rysiek|pl> gtg, cya all
[02:16] <Haza1> IntuitiveNipple: okay, so you want me to submit a bug report on the ubuntu website? do you have an address for me? =)
[02:16] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: The trouble is, when the install scripts are developed the authors don't have access to every combination of disk and driver, so its easy to fix one problem and introduce another
[02:16] <Tylzen> On my kids first computer I will put on Linux :)
[02:17] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Add the report as a comment to the end of that bug you posted to me
[02:17] <Tylzen> He is only 16 weeks old and not born yet, so a PC is not something he needs ATM
[02:17] <morpheus> well, i'm a noob and still trying to get my wireless to work.  there is an article in teh commumity forum/wifi docs
[02:17] <evo> morpheus: ok, fair enough
[02:17] <evo> thanks
[02:17] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: Don't let him have one until he's 16!
[02:18] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: Why not?
[02:18] <tondar> hi all
[02:18] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: We're trying not to breed hackers from birth :p
[02:18] <Tylzen> hha
[02:18] <tondar> what are other products by gnozilla (icewaesel and ?)
[02:18] <Tylzen> I remeber how I typed cmds in DOS when I was a kid
[02:18] <Tylzen> remember*
[02:18] <IntuitiveNipple>  :D I started with PCs when I was 16 - doesn't take long to catch up :)
[02:18] <Tylzen> None of the young kids know any DOS commands
[02:19] <IntuitiveNipple> I built my first computer, in 1981 :O
[02:19] <morpheus> i had to clean install xp with feisty 3 times before I figured how to get past the MBR issues.  finally partitioned 8G at the beginning of the drive and 2 partitions for xp and feisty.
[02:19] <Tylzen> 5 years before I was born
[02:19] <IntuitiveNipple> I was 16... so i'm the proof that 16 is a good age to get computers lol
[02:20] <morpheus> ?
[02:20] <IntuitiveNipple> I know one thing, getting a new PC through the mail like I did, stops you doing any household chores for about a week :D
[02:20] <tondar> what are some other products by gnuzilla?
[02:21] <morpheus> up all night trying to get wireless working.  guess it's time to take  a nap before work.  cya
[02:21] <tondar> there is an iceweasel proj, any others?
[02:21] <Tylzen> I was banned at my school from using any electronics after I cracked the teachers PW, and changed my account
[02:21] <Tylzen> So I could install games like Doom :P
[02:21] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: lol... thats the kind of thing they should encourage!
[02:21] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: Well VLC didn't help much
[02:21] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: I could see the first three seconds, then it disappears
[02:22] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: And I was only discoverd because someone told the teachers
[02:22] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: you'll never make a secret agent :p
[02:22] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: He got very unpopular at school, because all the games were removed, and I was banned from the computers and even the phones
[02:23] <mdkaneda55> Tylzen: Settings - Preferences - Video (on left, click +) , Output modules - Click checkbox by Advanced Options (lower right), change the module to OpenGL
[02:23] <sp1d3r> does anyone knows which is the right command to show all mainboard information?
[02:23] <evo> hey
[02:23] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: It's a shame what fear does to some people. Instead of embracing the technology and learning from breaches, people seem to think closing their eyes will make crackers go away.
[02:23] <evo> morpheus: you still here?
[02:24] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: : True true
[02:24] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: : Nothing
[02:24] <IntuitiveNipple> sp1d3r: a combination of lspci, lsusb, and cat /proc/cpu I suspect
[02:24] <evo> morpheus: turned out, it was just that the hardware switch on the wireless was off. Normally, an LED goes on/off (at least it does in Windowz)
[02:24] <IntuitiveNipple> ^^ cat /proc/cpuinfo ^^
[02:25] <Frogzoo> Tylzen: you need to be cautious - if you'd done that as an adult, it would be a criminal offense
[02:25] <Tylzen> Frogzoo: I knew that :P
[02:25] <Tylzen> I only once cracked another persons PC while being adult
[02:25] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: It should be a criminal offence to use weak passwords, or deploy networks that are insecure, if people want to keep things private
[02:26] <Tylzen> I exploited a security thing in his Win2000, he was a jerk, so I sent a message to his PC to shut down.
[02:26] <sp1d3r> IntuitiveNipple: yes but I need to know which is the exactly socket of my processor
[02:26] <IntuitiveNipple> It's not like their aren't any encryption tools!
[02:26] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: I knew more about a PC than the teachers at my grade school
[02:26] <IntuitiveNipple> sp1d3r: You have more than one CPU? Can't you look up the motherboard manual?
[02:26] <Gnea> sp1d3r: you need to look that up on the internet
[02:26] <preaction> sp1d3r: most processors have their own specific socket type
[02:27] <sp1d3r> IntuitiveNipple no I can't
[02:27] <Gnea> sp1d3r: who makes the motherboard?
[02:27] <IntuitiveNipple> sp1d3r: You don't have Google? :O
[02:27] <Tylzen> mdkaneda55: Perhaps I should try and update the video drivers ? :D
[02:27] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: Not everyone can afford google XD
[02:27] <IntuitiveNipple> LOL
[02:27] <Frogzoo> sp1d3r: best bet is reach for the mobo manual
[02:27] <IntelleCT> any networking gurus out there?  need some help
[02:27] <IntuitiveNipple> I know, the Class B shares are damned expensive :)
[02:28] <Tylzen> xD
[02:28] <sp1d3r> IntuitiveNipple No...
[02:28] <Gnea> IntelleCT: what's the problem?
[02:28] <IntuitiveNipple> IntelleCT: There may be :p
[02:28] <Frogzoo> spiff: or read off the mobo number, then google for the manual
[02:28] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: : Tell me a fast way in Linux to find out what GFX card I got, without tearing my laptop appart
[02:28] <Gnea> lspci | grep VGA
[02:29] <sp1d3r> Now I'm searching on internet for a tool like cpuZ(win)  for linux
[02:29] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: System > Administration > Device Manager
[02:29] <IntuitiveNipple> (thats' on Edgy)
[02:29] <Gnea> sp1d3r: what is cpuZ? just cat /proc/cpuinfo
[02:29] <IntuitiveNipple> on Feisty I think its System > Preferences > Hardware
[02:29] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: I knew I should have chosen the english language pack XD
[02:30] <along> hai
[02:30] <IntuitiveNipple> You could do "lspci" too
[02:30] <sp1d3r> Gnea: hm... in /proc/cpu there ins't none about cpu socket decription...
[02:30] <IntelleCT> Gnea:  I have a windows box that has two NIC.  I have broadband connection via a modem/router that I currently have one of the nics hooked up to.  I want to hook up the other nic to a switch (that has no internet connection) that my ubuntu-server is on.  I can't seem to get them to communicate on the switch when I do this.
[02:30] <fong_> how do i run the wpa_supplicant service?
[02:30] <along> how to make aztech 600ER as bridge mode?
[02:30] <preaction> sp1d3r: what kind of processor do you have?
[02:30] <Gnea> sp1d3r: if you match it up with google, you might get an answer
[02:30] <IntuitiveNipple> sp1d3r: If you know the CPU, you can GOOGLE for the socket type
[02:30] <sp1d3r> preaction Athlon AMD
[02:31] <feisty704> help
[02:31] <sp1d3r> IntuitiveNipple ok ok
[02:31] <IntuitiveNipple> That better?
[02:31] <dav7> looool
[02:31] <Frogzoo> sp1d3r: I think from 'sudo lshw' you could figure it out
[02:31] <feisty704> i cant login to gnome
[02:31] <preaction> sp1d3r: the athlon XP? you have to buy another Athlon XP. I believe they use "socket 7", but that doesn't matter. i have yet to see two different processors that use the same socket
[02:31] <Gnea> IntelleCT: you'd need to setup internet connection sharing for windows - or transfer one of the nics from the wintendo system to ubuntu and set that up to do NAT
[02:32] <askand> How do I easiest make the switch from ubuntu to windows?
[02:32] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: I found it, seems my intergrated piece of shit GFX doesnt want to show video
[02:32] <feisty704> everytime i ty to log in, it says that my previous sessions only last less than 10 seconds.

[02:32] <IntuitiveNipple> askand: Put the Ubuntu Live CD in the CD drive and reboot
[02:33] <sp1d3r> Frogzoo wow! A lot of information. I'm reading them
[02:33] <askand> IntuitiveNipple: from ubuntu to windows?
[02:33] <IntuitiveNipple> Haza1: Yeah, I just noticed you add the comment... nice one
[02:33] <Kirovski> that is not a way to switch from Windows to Ubuntu
[02:33] <Frogzoo> IntuitiveNipple: not really an ubuntu question, but setup ICS on the doze box (run the wizard), then set the IP & gateway in ip settings
[02:33] <IntelleCT> Gnea: which do you recommend?
[02:33] <feisty704> it could mean that there is some installation problem or that i maybe be out of diskspace
[02:33] <IntuitiveNipple> Frogzoo: huh?
[02:33] <feisty704> but i have enough diskspace
[02:33] <Frogzoo> IntuitiveNipple: gah, tab malfunction
[02:34] <feisty704> i tried loging into failsafe but still the same
[02:34] <Gnea> IntelleCT: whatever's easier for you. I'd go with using ubuntu as the NAT/Firewall/Gateway, since it's a server to begin with.
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple> askand: It depends on how much of your existing data documents and settings you want to keep when moving to Windows.
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple> Frogzoo: Phew! :p
[02:34] <Frogzoo> IntelleCT: not really an ubuntu question, but setup ICS on the doze box (run the wizard), then set the IP & gateway in ip settings
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple> aha lol
[02:34] <feisty704> theres a x-session-errors file generated
[02:34] <askand>  IntuitiveNipple: dont really knows whereubuntu puts everything..in my home folder?
[02:34] <feisty704> help
[02:34] <IntuitiveNipple> askand: Yes
[02:34] <rem> Hey .. Anyone knows if a p2 333 that is currently a file server (samba), could also handle a mail server (postfix,fetchmail..., ~15 users ..), loadwise ... ? anyone has experience with this conf .. ?
[02:35] <Gnea> Frogzoo: if he's running ubuntu as a server, and windows as a desktop, why run windows as a router?
[02:35] <sp1d3r> Frogzoo: Yeah! great command thank you
[02:35] <IntuitiveNipple> askand: You could back that up and then import things like your Firefox settings to Windows Firefox once it's installed, for example

[02:36] <IntuitiveNipple> rem: As long as the server isn't being spammed heavily, it should have no problem. Storage space is the main issue if the mail accounts retain the email (IMAP for example)

[02:36] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: I think the difference is just the way the driver is packaged, and maybe the installer

[02:37] <Frogzoo> rem: yes it can handle it - slowly

[02:38] <randomwalker> how do i configure ubuntu to use the nwe partition as swap
[02:38] <Frogzoo> rem: actually I think you'll be fine
[02:38] <rem> also I dont want it to slow down too much the file server ..
[02:38] <IntuitiveNipple> randomwalker:  have you done sudo swapon ?
[02:38] <IntelleCT> Gnea: is there an app I should use in ubuntu to set up NAT?
[02:38] <rem> k ty ....Ill give it a try ...
[02:38] <randomwalker> IntuitiveNipple: didn't know that, thanks
[02:39] <feisty704> got a "(nautilus:7383) : WARNING **: Can not calculate _NET_NUMBER_OF_DESKTOP" in the x-session-errors file

[02:41] <Ind[y] > Hello. How do I install fonts like verdana?
[02:42] <jigen> Tylzen> u have to change the permissions first, if you already did that
[02:42] <jujimufu> Ind[y] : first, you find the fonts. Then you press Alt+F2, write "kcontrol" go to the last tab and open Font Manager
[02:42] <jigen> sebrock>because you did not identify a directory to go to
[02:42] <Tylzen> jigen: Read & Write
[02:43] <sebrock> jigen, obiously <dir> is the directory, I just did not spell it out
[02:43] <KnowledgEngineer> hello
[02:43] <feisty704> can someone help me?
[02:43] <jigen> Tylzen: then you should just rub the file like such ./install.sh
[02:43] <jigen> sebraock: You should try the man pages first
[02:44] <Tylzen> jigen: It says I must be root
[02:44] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: chmod 755 install.sh; ./install.sh ??
[02:44] <Kohvihoor> feisty704, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:44] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: sudo chmod 755 install.sh; ./install.sh ??
[02:44] <Jeanre> hi all
[02:44] <Jeanre> how much faster is ubnutu on amd64?
[02:44] <feisty704> kohvihoor: can u help me?
[02:44] <feisty704> i cant log in to gnome
[02:44] <jigen> Tylzen: sudo chmod 755 ./install.sh
[02:45] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: Seemed like nothing happened, it asked for PW and I typed it
[02:45] <Tylzen> And I was like, next line :D
[02:45] <Kohvihoor> feisty704: you have to type it in terminal, or if you are in text mode, then login as normal user and type sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:45] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: ok, split the command up, I was paraphrasing "sudo chmod 755 install.sh"
[02:45] <feisty704> i know
[02:45] <sebrock> jigen, I did... exportfs -i /home/zeus | this should work
[02:45] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: then "./install.sh"
[02:45] <feisty704> i asked that to get some attention
[02:46] <feisty704> kohvihoor, i have a different problem
[02:46] <feisty704> i cant log in to gnome
[02:46] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: It says I must be root to install DRI drivers
[02:46] <Kohvihoor> What error it gives?
[02:46] <jigen> sebrock: What's the error you are getting again?
[02:46] <IntuitiveNipple> okay, do the install with sudo: sudo ./install.sh
[02:46] <vlt> Hello. What does the process artsd do, why does it consume 378 MB of my RAM and can I kill it without causing serious problems?

[02:47] <feisty704> i tried to log in into failsafe but still the same
[02:47] <kritzstapf> vlt: artsd is a sound daemom
[02:47] <jigen> su
[02:47] <IntuitiveNipple> vlt: artsd is the sound server
[02:47] <jigen> then tyoe your PW
[02:47] <sebrock> jigen, Invalid exporting option: /home/zeus
[02:47] <KnowledgEngineer> how can i boot hd usb using grub
[02:47] <KnowledgEngineer> ?
[02:47] <jigen> abd the do /.install.sh
[02:47] <Tylzen> jigen: That doesn't work, it says wrong pssword
[02:47] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: is you do "su" you type the root password, if you do "sudo" you use *your* password
[02:47] <jigen> sebrock: what does the man pages say about -i
[02:48] <feisty704> got a "(nautilus:7383) : WARNING **: Can not calculate _NET_NUMBER_OF_DESKTOP" in the x-session-errors file
[02:48] <Tylzen> What is the root pw, I never set one
[02:48] <Kohvihoor> feisty704: Sorry, i can't help you with that problem, i have had that problem multiple times, and i have solved it using the hard way. D:
[02:48] <IntuitiveNipple> ^is/if^
[02:48] <CheshireViking> vlt, maybe this will help, gives a bit more detail about artsd - http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-questions/2003-December/028056.html
[02:48] <jigen> Tylsen: you need to add a root user first
[02:48] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: There isn't one, thats the point... To login as root do "sudo su" and type *your* password
[02:48] <sebrock> jigen, basically that -i is a temporary option, not using /etc/exports
[02:48] <Tylzen> thre
[02:48] <feisty704> hard way? reinstall feisty?
[02:48] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: The point of not having a password for root, is to make the system secure
[02:48] <Kohvihoor> Yep.
[02:49] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: : That sudo su worked :D
[02:49] <Bsims> Well different approach
[02:49] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: It always does, I spend most of my time logged in like that :D

[03:10] <mboman> I am "converting" my Gentoo machine to Ubuntu 7.04. Will the installer recognize the lvm2 groups I already have in Gentoo?
[03:10] <randomwalker> IntuitiveNipple: sounds complicated..
[03:10] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: Harsh, well it is with 3 of my favourite codecs that it does it with, I don't have any raw footage on my lap
[03:10] <berent> hi IntuitiveNipples :  the other one?
[03:10] <IntuitiveNipple> randomwalker: Actually, it sounds easy :)
[03:10] <bXi> mboman: i think it does
[03:11] <IntuitiveNipple> randomwalker: In essence all you do is edit about 4 lines in the VMPlayer text config file
[03:11] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: It plays the sounds perfectly, but I have to maximize repeatly before I can see some of it
[03:11] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: I'm suspecting its your acelerated video driver
[03:11] <mboman> I do have a backup of the data on those drives, but I really don't want to go through the pain of putting it back - took me ages to back it up in the first place (1 week+)
[03:11] <randomwalker> IntuitiveNipple: ok, i'll give it a try then
[03:12] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: I'm assuming you're using an accelerator
[03:12] <IntuitiveNipple> randomwalker: The great thing is you can dual-boot AND virtualise
[03:12] <C_Kode> mboman: Linux LVM is Linux LVM.  They should see it.  You just will probably need to scan for him.  vgscan
[03:12] <along78> bXi: thanks
[03:12] <IntuitiveNipple> randomwalker: At least, that is what I'm hoping :F
[03:12] <randomwalker> IntuitiveNipple: right, that's what i find appealing
[03:12] <C_Kode> scan for them
[03:12] <bXi> along78: no problem
[03:12] <mboman> C_Kode: cool. thanks
[03:12] <randomwalker> IntuitiveNipple: like, the changes in the virtualized setup are reflected in the physical setup, right?
[03:12] <C_Kode> mboman: you mean the Ubuntu install?
[03:12] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: It is a inbuilt piece of poo, have no idea to tamper with it
[03:13] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: But yes, I do
[03:13] <IntuitiveNipple> randomwalker: The article indicates that Vista automatically adopts a hardware profile for each situation, too
[03:13] <randomwalker> IntuitiveNipple: cool. i hope i don't end up hosing my vista partition :)
[03:14] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: usually the blanked video issue is caused by the video output to the overlay surface being messed up. I would suggest, in order to prove this, that you temporarily switch back to the standard open-source no-accelerated video driver.
[03:14] <can-o-worms> #debian
[03:14] <IntuitiveNipple> randomwalker: if you do, add coments to that article so I can learn from your experience :D
[03:14] <randomwalker> IntuitiveNipple: :)
[03:14] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: I am using whatever Ubuntu decided to use, which I have discovered is the same driver that Intel is providing
[03:14] <hwf> hello

[03:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mpd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:15] <hwf> need some to look at my x-session-errors log via http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20794/
[03:15] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: hmm, ok... maybe research how to turn off using video overlays in the media player then
[03:15] <hwf> need someone to look at my x-session-errors log via http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20794/
[03:15] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: I just turned it off :)
[03:15] <IntuitiveNipple> I know in gmplayer you can select which method to use
[03:15] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: You're too quick for me!
[03:15] <hwf> it kept preventing me to log in to gnome desktop
[03:15] <C_Kode> Can anyone used apt-get to install mysql-devel?  (I can't!)
[03:15] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: No diff, still see the first 2 secs or so
[03:16] <randomwalker> lol
[03:17] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: okay, so if it is *not* using overlays, you have an application problem. Is there another player you can try?
[03:17] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: Totem is the worst, VLC is slightly better
[03:17] <Tylzen> But still unable to watch more than 2 secs :D
[03:17] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: What OS version are you using?
[03:17] <zengkhol> dear helpers, how do i burn audio cd in k3b from mp3 files ?
[03:18] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: Thats the clue to get off the damned PC :) (it's a feature not a bug!)
[03:18] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: Newest version, I downloaded it yesterday and burned it out :D
[03:18] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: BLAH!!
[03:18] <hwf> help
[03:18] <hwf> need someone to look at my x-session-errors log via http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20794/
[03:18] <IntuitiveNipple> fire!
[03:18] <creadorcreativo> zengkhol: you need install libk3b2-mp3
[03:18] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: But it is pretty random normally it is black from begin to end
[03:19] <Tylzen> Not like 2 secs, then turn off
[03:19] <zengkhol> thanks, i'll try now
[03:19] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: Have you got "Desktop Effects" enabled ?
[03:19] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: I do
[03:19] <aro> hwf, I'd help you but after looking at that I realize I don't know what it means :(
[03:19] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: You know what i'm about to suggest, dont you!?
[03:20] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: Make dinner?
[03:20] <IntuitiveNipple> that too :p disable effects
[03:20] <aro> hwf, though "Window manager warning: "" found in configuration database is not a valid value for keybinding "toggle_shaded"" seems to be the beginning of the errors and warnings
[03:20] <hwf> aro: its from my x-session-errors log
[03:20] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: I hate you!
[03:20] <zengkhol> creadorcreativo: thank's it worked

[03:21] <daltocli> Heya... I'm having problems with VMware Server... Apparently the vmmon module is missing, as such I can't start my virtual servers... How would I sort this out?
[03:21] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: But I wanted the effectS!!!!!!!! :(
[03:21] <daltocli> I've tried reinstalling vmware server (after a --purge remove)
[03:21] <C_Kode> daltocli: Reinstall VMWare Server
[03:21] <C_Kode>  ah
[03:21] <daltocli> I've done that twice :S
[03:21] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: "Desktop Effects" means the compositing aka Beryl etc, which uses stuf like overlay buffers
[03:21] <C_Kode> Have you gotten VMWare to run at all?
[03:22] <daltocli> First thing I do if something buggers up :P
[03:22] <gumpish> arg! What sed syntax do I have to use to replace all of the newlines in a file with spaces?
[03:22] <daltocli> VMware Server Console runs, etc
[03:22] <daltocli> But it's just starting the virtual machines
[03:22] <C_Kode> Have you gotten any VMs to run on this setup yet?
[03:22] <daltocli> When I do a stop on vmware-server is says that VMware machine monitor has stopped
[03:22] <daltocli> Nope
[03:22] <johan010> o/ , im having problems getting a nvidia agp card to work , unless i blacklist amd64_agp x will freeze on loading with a blackscreen, any ideas?
[03:23] <daltocli> Aha... It failed on a start though :|
[03:23] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: Now I forgot where the overlay settings were in VLC
[03:23] <daltocli> vmnet module doesn't exist either :|
[03:23] <C_Kode> You don't have it installed right.  Hold on, I have a link that might help you,.
[03:23] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: sounds like me! my short-term memory is terrible at times
[03:23] <daltocli> I installed vmware from automatix2 if that helps at all
[03:24] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: Found it :D
[03:24] <IntuitiveNipple> your memory, or the overlays?
[03:24] <Tylzen> both
[03:24] <daltocli> /lib/modules seems to have 3 directories: 2.6.20-15-server -generic and -lowlatency

[03:27] <hwf> now the log's are even onger than before
[03:27] <Tylzen> Kohvihoor: Chase the gnome
[03:27] <IntuitiveNipple> Kohvihoor: accelerated video drivers?
[03:27] <aro> hwf, are the errors actually preventing you from doing anything?
[03:27] <hwf> no
[03:27] <Kohvihoor> Yep, accelerated.
[03:27] <aro> hwf, I have some nasty looking errors and warnings in my xsession error log but I would not know unless I looked
[03:27] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: no comment!
[03:27] <C_Kode> mboman: did you have any trouble compiling it?
[03:27] <hwf> there's a popup
[03:27] <hwf> if i clicked okay, then it would restart
[03:27] <Kohvihoor> Somehow Debian Etch was or at least seamed faster, than Feisty.
[03:28] <Kohvihoor> With GNome.
[03:28] <berent> Are IntuitiveNipple and Tylzen females
[03:28] <Tylzen> Yup Females that use Linux

[03:29] <daltocli> I'd rather be at home though :D
[03:29] <mboman> C_Kode: compiling what?
[03:29] <hwf> it says "your session only lasted less than 10sec. if you hav not logged out yourself, this could mean that there is some installation problem or you are low of diskspace. try logging in with one of the failsafe session to see if u can fix this problem"
[03:29] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: next time I'm in Ikea I shall go to the restaurant and think of you as i munch on those meatballs :)
[03:29] <daltocli> :|
[03:29] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: I always order in swedish, even though I am in Denmark
[03:30] <Tylzen> IntuitiveNipple: I love to confuse people
[03:30] <daltocli> That sounds very... promiscuous? :P
[03:30] <IntuitiveNipple> Tylzen: you're certainly succeeding here :)
[03:30] <hwf> aro: then theres a checkbox to view details of the x-session-errors log
[03:30] <Tylzen> I am going to cook meatballs with cream sauce and tatoes!
[03:30] <berent> IntuitiveNipple has only one nipple and Tylzen has ?
[03:30] <C_Kode> mboman: sorry directed that at the wrong person.

[03:44] <adrian15> hwf: because X work but some programs do not work, is it ?
[03:44] <hwf> well, x is running now unless i checked ok on the pop up then gnome get restarted
[03:44] <hwf> yes
[03:44] <hwf> gnome-session gave me error
[03:44] <luisgmarine> Quick question, how many MiB's in a gigabyte?
[03:44] <hwf> adrian15: Session management error: Could not open network socket
[03:44] <daltocli> luisgmarine, 1024
[03:45] <hwf> is it corrupted?
[03:45] <daltocli> 1000 is the "rounded off" version
[03:45] <hwf> adrian15: i cant even reconfigure gnome-session
[03:45] <adrian15> hwf: and what's written in the pop up ?
[03:46] <hwf> adrian15: it says "your session only lasted less than 10sec. if you hav not logged out yourself, this could mean that there is some installation problem or you are low of diskspace. try logging in with one of the failsafe session to see if u can fix this problem"
[03:46] <daltocli> luisgmarine, Also, if you're using MiB, the correcter term is gibibyte/GiB, not gigabyte :)
[03:46] <adrian15> hwf: and failsafe session does work
[03:46] <adrian15> ?
[03:46] <daltocli> Oh... That was an awful mistake
[03:46] <daltocli> Today isn't my day, it seems
[03:47] <hwf> adrian15: no.. failsafe didnt work too.. same error popped up
[03:47] <adrian15> hwf: did you messed up with X configuration lately ?
[03:47] <hwf> no
[03:47] <IntuitiveNipple> 1024 Bytes = 1 KiloBytes (KB), 1024 KB = 1 MegaBytes (MB), 1024 MB = 1 GigaBytes (GB)
[03:47] <hwf> all i did was install new gtk 2 themes
[03:47] <hwf> adrian15: several of them
[03:48] <daltocli> Mebibyte is slightly different :)
[03:48] <hwf> adrian15: then restarted, gnome crashed back to gdm. relogin, i get the error
[03:48] <IntuitiveNipple> 1024 = 2^10
[03:48] <pookemax> anybody can assist me to access the web that has been blocked by my government
[03:49] <daltocli> Ja, IntuitiveNipple
[03:49] <adrian15> hwf: What I do not understand is why failsafe session does not work
[03:49] <adrian15> if you type X &
[03:49] <adrian15> do you see an X ?
[03:49] <adrian15> you know you see a grey screen ?
[03:49] <adrian15> ctrl + alt + f1
[03:49] <hwf> i didnt type X
[03:49] <hwf> just reoaded gdm
[03:50] <luisgmarine> Hello guys
[03:50] <adrian15> hwf: From ctrl+alt+f1 you can do a gdm stop. And run X manually.
[03:50] <hwf> with sudo /etc/init.d/gdm force-reload
[03:50] <luisgmarine> I'm trying to create a partition for my music and stuff, I just made the partition and made it reisferfs
[03:50] <hwf> adrian15: do u mean startx?
[03:50] <luisgmarine> how do I format it to be an extended , or can it be a primary partition?
[03:50] <Polis_wrk> my rc.local doesn't load in bootup of my system 6.10-lamp, what can be my problem? the file is correct edited, with the same settings as i'm using on my 6.06-lamp
[03:51] <adrian15> hwf: It does not matter, if you can select to run failsafe or gnome .... that means that X works.
[03:51] <vox754> luisgmarine, that is upon creation, an extended partition is essentially the fourth primary partition which can contain other secondary partitions or "logical drives"
[03:51] <adrian15> hwf: So it's a gnome error.

[03:56] <calliope> which cpu is a better choice  	intel E6320  1.86  4M/1066 for $250   or   AMD  X2-5600 (1Mx2)  2.8G  for  $250

[03:57] <BadaR> Hello guys!I have just dual booted Win XP and Ubuntu Feisty 7.04,i just made some settings in gParted.But how can i configure my GRUB(or how was that program called)So it could give me a choise what OS should i load?Now i can only switch by manually changing flags in gParted to boot.Please help!!!
[03:57] <calliope> is there any specialized purpose or use that the inel might be better for?
[03:57] <Answer> BadaR, locate menu.lst
[03:57] <IntuitiveNipple> Answer: Have you tried Googling for it?
[03:58] <Answer> calliope, processor is processor...  amd usually has bigger cache
[03:58] <BadaR> Answer, /boot/grub/menu.lst this is what i need?
[03:58] <Answer> IntuitiveNipple, yeah thanks captain obvious
[03:58] <Answer> BadaR, yeah edit that file for your choice
[03:58] <IntuitiveNipple> Answer: Well, I found the answer in 2 clicks so you can't have looked much!
[03:58] <daltocli> What CPUs are we comparing here?
[03:58] <Answer> IntuitiveNipple, yeah I don't think that works
[03:59] <calliope> i would normally just grab the AMD but someone who builds systems tells me that the intel will do render and vid capture at better performance. does anyone know if there is truth to that
[03:59] <mc44> !grub | BadaR
[03:59] <ubotu> BadaR: 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
[03:59] <Cnl_Delta> hi, if i sart a program and can hear the audio but not see the program in the taskbar or onscreen, what can i do?
[03:59] <IntuitiveNipple> Answer: You've installed thinkpad-acpi ?
[03:59] <C_Kode> calliope: Today's Intel Processors preform better at most operations.
[03:59] <BadaR> Hm, Answer, apparently i dont have any OS in it.Only ubuntu ... heres my menu.lst
[04:00] <BadaR> Answer, http://pastebin.ca/487457
[04:00] <daltocli> Especially the Core 2 Quad :P
[04:00] <robinlinth> I'm trying to play Chess in 3D but it says this: "Your system does not have the required software to enable 3D mode. Please contact your system administrator and ask them to install the OpenGL Python bindings and the GtkGLExt Python bindings.". What package do they mean?
[04:00] <daltocli> I want my next station to have two Core 2 Quads bwahaha
[04:00] <daltocli> Imagine all that power at my command :D
[04:00] <vox754> daltocli, that is kinda offtopic
[04:00] <IntuitiveNipple> Answer: I take it you followed the guide here? http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/How_to_get_special_keys_to_work
[04:01] <daltocli> Define kinda
[04:01] <Answer> IntuitiveNipple, I see it in acpi listen... but I dunno
[04:01] <daltocli> It's a reply to someone else
[04:01] <C_Kode> After 8 years of AMD processors, my last processor was Intel's E6600 Core 2 Duo dual 2.4ghz cores
[04:01] <daltocli> You might want to attack the initiator/culprit, not a replier.
[04:01] <Answer> BadaR, hold on I will paste mine for you
[04:02] <calliope> C_Kode: that is nicely generaly but how bout intel vs amd for video capture, editing and render  for the same priced CPU
[04:02] <daltocli> Or better still, just be quiet since you've said nothing useful, just complained non-stop
[04:02] <daltocli> C_Kode, those ones any good?
[04:02] <daltocli> I have the T5500 (1.66GHz) - they're pretty stable
[04:02] <calliope> C_Kode: are you happy with your E6600 ?
[04:03] <vox754> !offtopic | Lets see if this works now calliope daltocli C_Kode
[04:03] <C_Kode> calliope:  Intel is better now.  Google Intel vs AMD.
[04:03] <ubotu> Lets see if this works now calliope daltocli C_Kode: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:03] <C_Kode> calliope: very much so.
[04:03] <Guest88856> Is is possible to make a cluster with both PPC and x86 processors?
[04:03] <C_Kode> calliope: I'm not an overclocker anymore like I was years ago, but the E6600 hasd been known to overclock to 3.8ghz
[04:03] <hylje> Guest88856: yes if your clustering app is endian-aware
[04:03] <daltocli> vox754, Add one in for "stop complaining non-stop and be silent unless you have something 100% benefitial to say" instead of just complaining non-stop.
[04:03] <Guest88856> THIS IS BLASPHEMY!
[04:04] <Guest88856> THIS IS MADNESS!
[04:04] <daltocli> I'm pedantic yet I know when to shut up

[04:04] <Answer> BadaR, you can see my menu.lst for reference http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20808
[04:04] <Answer> BadaR, basically you have to figure out which partition is your windows install and add that section
[04:04] <daltocli> C_Kode, Which version of GCC will start using --march=core2?
[04:05] <daltocli> It it 4.3?
[04:05] <C_Kode> Answer my Ubuntu question then.  Why when I try to install mysql-devel does it fail as if there is no such package?
[04:05] <jam_> How do I get my Linux computer to recognize a set of headphones?
[04:05] <C_Kode> daltocli: I don't have that answer.
[04:05] <mc44> !info mysql-devel
[04:05] <ubotu> Package mysql-devel does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:05] <daltocli> C_Kode, damn. Will be useful when it is realised though
[04:05] <mc44> C_Kode: because that package doesnt exit
[04:06] <BadaR> Answer, honestly,didnt understand a line there :|
[04:06] <C_Kode> Well, isn't that special.
[04:06] <adrian15> BadaR: Can you describe us a step-by-step?
[04:06] <daltocli> Depends... I prefer having everything as optimised as possible
[04:06] <adrian15> BadaR: What are these gparted flags?
[04:06] <jam_> Can anyone help me? How do I get my Linux computer to recognize a set of headphones?
[04:06] <daltocli> Shame with debs you can't choose which gcc --march option you want :(
[04:06] <adrian15> BadaR: Did you install windows and then linux or viceversa ?
[04:06] <BadaR> viceversa
[04:07] <adrian15> BadaR: aha.
[04:07] <BadaR> (i didnt installed windows yet,only made ntfs partition)
[04:07] <Xyhthyx> jam_, I'm concerned if just connecting them doesn't work.
[04:07] <BadaR> im on ubuntu at moment
[04:07] <adrian15> BadaR: So you can only boot windows unless you set the linux partition as active... is that ?
[04:07] <Answer> BadaR, you need to add an entry in menu.lst for the windows partition like this:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20809/
[04:07] <mc44> BadaR: if you havent installed windows, how can you possible expect to boot into it??
[04:07] <adrian15> BadaR: What's your problem then ?
[04:08] <C_Kode> Why would you offer MySQL package, but not MySQL devel...
[04:08] <BadaR> im just pissed of manually switching those flags in gparted
[04:08] <Guest88856> My Killer NIC isn't detected by linux, is there a way I can get it working?
[04:08] <BadaR> i wanted to have some menu in GRUB
[04:08] <jam> oops... didn't mean to quit.
[04:08] <BadaR> so i could choose at PC startup what OS to boot
[04:08] <mc44> BadaR: you will have, when you install windows
[04:08] <mc44> BadaR: you cant expect to have the option *before* you install windows
[04:08] <burnerx> anyone setup a web radio before or can point me at the right direction ?
[04:08] <BadaR> so you say GRUB will auto detect?
[04:08] <Guest88856> How can I get my nic working?
[04:09] <adrian15> BadaR: when you change the flags and boot linux do you see GRUB or does Linux begin to boot alone ?
[04:09] <mc44> BadaR: yes, once you install windows follow this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[04:09] <jam> Would that be HAM radio, burnerx, or musical broadcasting?
[04:09] <C_Kode> Guest88856: With the use of Google.
[04:09] <BadaR> thanks guys
[04:09] <BadaR> im off then
[04:09] <Guest88856> I already googled it
[04:09] <Guest88856> I can't find anything on it
[04:09] <dope> I'm having trouble getting into a samba share. it says I don't have access. where can I check the access?
[04:09] <mc44> C_Kode: please dont tell people to use google, its not helpful
[04:09] <burnerx> jam, audio broadcasting
[04:09] <Guest88856> I'm using a killer NIC card
[04:10] <Guest88856> Works fine under windows, not at all under linux
[04:10] <Guest88856> I've updated the kernel, tried multiple distros
[04:10] <Guest88856> Won't work
[04:10] <Xyhthyx> Guest88856, Knowing the brand would help us help you.
[04:10] <Hadron> anyone know of a utility to track config changes from basic Ubuntu defaults? e.g to help after a new install of Ubuntu - alist of config files needed to be restored.
[04:11] <Enverex|LT> Guest88856, Brand and model + chipset...
[04:11] <vox754> Guest88856, you need to know the "chipset"   the brand is useless info most of the time
[04:11] <Guest88856> It's a Killer NIC
[04:11] <jam> burnerx: I'm sorry. I can't help you there :(
[04:11] <Guest88856> the expensive one
[04:11] <Enverex|LT> Guest88856, That's no use what-so-ever
[04:11] <jam> burnerx. Do you want to make your own website and host your own music, or do you want to use something like Yahoo! Radio?
[04:11] <CheshireViking> Guest88856, saying "Killer NIC" is like saying you have a BMW car, it doesn't specify which model
[04:12] <Hadron> Guest88856: I cant believe you coughed up for that con.
[04:12] <void^> Guest88856: work on your troll skills
[04:12] <Guest88856> What?
[04:12] <Guest88856> I'm serious
[04:12] <Xyhthyx> Guest88856, Does a detailed description of the chipset show up on "lspci -v"?
[04:12] <burnerx> jam, i want to host it myself ... was thinking of using mpd+icecast2

[04:20] <pookemax> it is hidden during the creation of partition
[04:20] <LjL> Jenny9: about what?
[04:20] <dr_willis> insmod,  rename?  a filesystem can have a lable. or are you refering to the /dev/hda1 or whatever device name?
[04:20] <Hadron> PriceChild: I was not. I have just been asked to watch my words. And I feel "nipple" is offensive to some people too. Anyway, it was only meant as lighthearted merth. I'm off now. c u later.
[04:20] <Jenny9> psp = playstation portable
[04:20] <C_Kode> Guest: You must not have.  They have beta Linux drivers on their website

[04:21] <Jenny9> nobody here would be able to help me then I guess
[04:21] <simplyviven> hey tell me how to install ati 9100 igp drivers
[04:21] <IdleOne> !ati
[04:21] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:21] <Neillithan> hi. i'm trying to install ubuntu on my laptop.  i am making the partitions prior to installing ubuntu.  I need one partition for Ubuntu, 1 for a swap, and 1 for the grub boot loader, correct?
[04:22] <Agony> Alright. So I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 7.04 from 6.10, and now my sound refuses to work (it did before). I now get the error "Could not open resource for writing." whenever I attempt to play sound. By the way, my soundcard is apparently an ATI SB450.
[04:22] <Xyhthyx> !alsa
[04:22] <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
[04:22] <PriceChild> !pm | simplyviven
[04:22] <ubotu> simplyviven: 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.
[04:22] <IdleOne> !sound | Agony
[04:22] <pookemax> it correct and make sure it is not from powerquest...
[04:22] <ubotu> Agony: please see above
[04:22] <C_Kode> Wow, Ubuntu is supposed to be a very friendly Desktop system, yet there are some very nazish users in this channel.
[04:22] <LjL> Neillithan: no, you don't need a partition for the boot loader
[04:22] <PriceChild> C_Kode, if you find anyone breaking the CoC please poke an op.
[04:22] <Guest88856> Is there any way to get an X-Fi sound card working under linux?
[04:23] <pgquiles> how can I clone the MAC of an ethernet device? I tried to add "mac xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" under the "iface eth0 inet dhcp" line but it does not work
[04:23] <simplyviven> arey i'm getiting disconnected
[04:23] <Neillithan> ljl, can I make life simple by eliminating the need for the swap partition?
[04:23] <Agony> ALSA is selected, and the steps at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound didn't help.
[04:23] <LjL> Neillithan: i'd recommend against it, but it's possible (although i don't know if the GUI installer lets you, but it probably does)
[04:23] <ironfroggy> can anyone tell me what i need to cross-compile targetting windows?
[04:23] <simplyviven> can anybody pm me plz
[04:24] <Neillithan> ljl: okay. should i make them primary patitions, logical, or does it matter?
[04:24] <LjL> Neillithan: you won't be able to use hibernation, however, and you'll have to be very careful not to go out of memory
[04:24] <Guest88856> Is there anyway to get a Creative X-Fi sound card working under linux?
[04:24] <PriceChild> Guest88856, not supported yet afaik
[04:24] <LjL> Neillithan: primaries are fine, unless you plan to have more than 4 partitions in total
[04:24] <Enverex|LT> Guest88856, At the moment? No. Creative just canceled their drivers too so probably not for some time
[04:24] <along78> bXi: need to add in /etc/resolv.conf

[04:24] <pookemax> > how to unhide ntfs?
[04:24] <Neillithan> ljl: i have a windows partition (primary), documents partition (ntfs primary), and a type 88 partiton but i don't know what that is.
[04:24] <emarkd> can anyone help me config the media buttons on my keyboard in edgy?
[04:24] <vox754> LjL, did you manage to set the two network interfaces as you wanted, the PCI and onboard? I found some info that you may need to set up some rules in udev config files.
[04:24] <insomniac190> !rename partition
[04:25] <LjL> Neillithan: given you said it's a laptop, my guess would be that it's the "hidden" partition that can be used to restore Windows
[04:25] <dr_willis> pookemax,  gparted should be able to 'unhide' it.
[04:25] <Neillithan> ljl: affirmative
[04:25] <Hadron> ironfroggy: try this for a start http://www.wxwidgets.org/docs/technote/crosscmp.htm
[04:25] <dr_willis> Neillithan,  you want to be very veyr very carefull with those.
[04:25] <Neillithan> ljl: okay so... will I need to convert any of these to logical? seeing as.. i will result with 5 partitions.
[04:26] <LjL> Neillithan: so, you lack one "slot" for having both root and swap. make an extended partition
[04:26] <pookemax> then tell me command for installation. i ve try burn to cd the livecd gparted but still cant works
[04:26] <ironfroggy> Hadron: i saw that but i dont understand the references to mingw
[04:26] <insomniac190> Is there a command to rename hda1 etc?
[04:26] <ironfroggy> i thought that was for compiling ON windows
[04:26] <LjL> Neillithan: no well, if you want to leave your existing partitions as untouched as possible, just make an extended partition and put two logical ones inside it - one for root and one for swap
[04:26] <LjL> Neillithan: (and one for /home, if you want)
[04:26] <dr_willis> insomniac190,  rename it to what?
[04:27] <insomniac190> im storing my music on 1 partition so i wanted to rename it music
[04:27] <Neillithan> ljl: the problem with the /home is, I am limited on harddrive space.. i was going to try and utilize an NTFS partition from within linux..
[04:27] <dr_willis> insomniac190,  you may want to clarify what the problem. sounds tome like you may be trying the wrong aproach.
[04:27] <Neillithan> ljl: the NTFS would also be the /home, if that's possible.
[04:27] <LjL> Neillithan: you can't have /home on an NTFS partition. but if you just mean you'll use your NTFS for documents, while having /home in your root partition, then ok...
[04:27] <dr_willis> insomniac190,  just mount it to a /media/music mount point woiuld be one way.. if its ext3 you can set the partition label.
[04:27] <cox377_> can anyone recommend an program for joining avi files together?
[04:28] <platman> insomniac190:  you can choose the mountpoint for the partition, so that it's in a folder named "Music"
[04:28] <Neillithan> ljl: will it still have read and write access? (the ntfs partition)
[04:28] <insomniac190> dr_willis:  thanks, i'll give that a try
[04:28] <PriceChild> !away < |-David-|
[04:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about away < - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:28] <PriceChild> !away > |-David-|
[04:28] <LjL> Neillithan: yes and no. not by default - you'll have to install something called ntfs-3g to write to it. and that's still not completely stable. if you really care about the NTFS partition and want to avoid any chance of data corruptions as much as possible - then don't write to it from Linux
[04:28] <platman> insomniac190:  4get it willis beat me to it
[04:29] <Neillithan> ljl: bummer.
[04:29] <Neillithan> ljl: well.. what size of the root partition do you suggest since I will not have a /home partition?
[04:30] <LjL> Neillithan, i cannot suggest anything aside from "as big as possible"... 3 gig is slightly more than the bare minimum
[04:30] <Neillithan> ljl: allright then, 5-15 gigs... i will figure it out :) thanks for your help :)
[04:31] <LjL> Neillithan: remember you can also write to ext3 from windows, using third-party software (though that's probably not any safer than writing to NTFS from linux)
[04:31] <pookemax> anybody have an idea why the live cd gparted that ive burn cant works?
[04:31] <dr_willis> pookemax,  bad download, not burnt right... define 'cant works'
[04:31] <Neillithan> ljl: how big should the swap partition be?
[04:32] <malcome> what is new ubuntu called? the one after fiesty
[04:32] <dr_willis> Neillithan,  depends on your ram size
[04:32] <randomwalker> malcome: gutsy gibbon
[04:32] <LjL> Neillithan: at least as big as your RAM. how much RAM?
[04:32] <pookemax> dr willis - is it now ways of booting cd?
[04:32] <mc44> !gutsy | malcome
[04:32] <ubotu> malcome: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule Support in #ubuntu+1
[04:32] <behdad_> Hello , whenever i want to install a new package ,synaptic says there are unresorvable dependencies make sure all required repositories are added and when i search for the unresorvable packege it is exist , is there anybody kows what is wrong with my package manager ? thanks
[04:32] <vox754> pookemax, use Knoppix CD!     Most probably is that you didn't burn the ISO correctly.
[04:32] <raw-bin> Greets. I want to attempt backporting the post 2.6.20 kernels. Is there a repository where the Ubuntu patches that went into the default Feisty kernel are present ?
[04:32] <pookemax> dr willis - is it normal ways of booting cd?
[04:32] <Neillithan> ljl: 448 MB of ram
[04:32] <C_Kode> Neillthan: Well, depends on how much ram you have.  2X your ram, but if you have 2GB of ram, 1Gb is good
[04:32] <dr_willis> pookemax,  you need to clarify the problem.  you downloaded the .iso file - how did you burn it?
[04:32] <malcome> mc44 randomwalker thankyou
[04:32] <LjL> Neillithan: i'd make it 1 gig, but you can do with less if you really have to
[04:33] <AmyRose> Is there a gtkrc setting to change the icons used in GTK apps? I'm in KDE
[04:33] <pookemax> ive extract the iso then burn the extracted files on cd? is that the correct way dr?
[04:33] <AmyRose> and nobody in #kubuntu had an answer
[04:33] <dr_willis> pookemax,  'extract the iso' - thats the problem.
[04:33] <LjL> pookemax: ehm, no.
[04:33] <insomniac190> dr_willis: i changed the mount point under the volume tab of the partition.  But when I try to unmount it, it says cannot unmount volume, mount disagrees with fstab
[04:33] <dr_willis> pookemax,  use a tool that burns iso files. like 'burn at once'
[04:33] <cox377_> avi joiner
[04:33] <LjL> pookemax: an ISO is a byte-for-byte image for a CD. you need to burn *the ISO*, not the files it contains
[04:33] <cox377_> !avi joiner
[04:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avi joiner - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:33] <LjL> !burniso > pookemax    (pookemax, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:33] <emarkd> can anyone help me config the media buttons on my keyboard in edgy?  I need to change their function from the commandline.  Anybody got any ideas?
[04:33] <raw-bin> Anyone ?
[04:34] <dr_willis> insomniac190,  and its correct. :) ya should of unmounted it first.
[04:34] <peacemaker> thank you
[04:34] <insomniac190> dr_willis: so unmount it first, change the settings, and them mount it?
[04:34] <xjdriver69> exit
[04:34] <Neillithan> ljl: okay i have it worked like this
[04:34] <vox754> !prefix > pookemax
[04:35] <Elko> Hi, I was wondering if it's possible to 'remember' the last used username when login in in ubuntu.
[04:35] <dr_willis> insomniac190,  somting like that. It may be worth wile to read a few docs on how linux mounts drives and the use of the fstab file.
[04:35] <vox754> !tab > pookemax
[04:35] <malcome> when is kde 4 out
[04:35] <dr_willis> Elko,  kdm and gdm have that feature. i belove.
[04:35] <Elko> dr_willis: I use gdm, but can't find that option
[04:35] <Neillithan> ljl: c: 15gb primary, e: docs ntfs 64gb primary, linux logical 13 GB linux swap 1 GB, and type 88 251 MB primary
[04:35] <calvarez> OT: anybody familiar with AMD 939 and AM2 sockets?
[04:36] <dr_willis> Elko,  on my laptop it puts in the last logged in username.. of course thats also the ONLY username on the machine. :)
[04:36] <fanch59> hi folks
[04:36] <pookemax> any default burner within ubuntu for iso burning?
[04:36] <dr_willis> Elko,  you may need tomanually edit the gdm config file.
[04:36] <dr_willis> pookemax,  i use k3b normally
[04:36] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> To the person who helped me get ubuntu up and installed"thanks" very much for taking the time to help a nooby like me:)
[04:36] <insomniac190> !fstab
[04:36] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[04:36] <behdad_> My packege manager doesnt install dependencies packages , how can i fix it ?
[04:36] <emarkd> pookemax:  you can burn from nautilus
[04:36] <insomniac190> !partitions
[04:36] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[04:36] <Neillithan> ljl: sorry if that was confusing.  im' sure it will work fine
[04:37] <fanch59> I'm looking for support to solve a wireless connection problem using wpa on ubuntu... anyone can help ?
[04:37] <emarkd> pookemax:  at least, you can burn isos from nautilus
[04:37] <LjL> Neillithan: i think that's what you meant, but note that *both* the linux(root) and the linux(swap) partition must be logical
[04:37] <Neillithan> ljl: yup. they are logical.  you said they must be extended... i dunno how to verify if they are extended.
[04:37] <dr_willis> LjL,  huh? i always use pimary partitions.. oh  - inside an extended they have to be logical of course. :)
[04:37] <LjL> Neillithan: they must not be extended
[04:38] <LjL> Neillithan: you need to have *one* extended partition that *contains* two logical partitions
[04:38] <dr_willis> extemded partitions Just 'hold' logical partitions. :) yea.. thats it..
[04:38] <LjL> Neillithan: an "extended partition" is just a contained for logical partitions
[04:38] <gmvagb> dfgd
[04:38] <dr_willis> The things you learn using Linux. :)
[04:38] <LjL> dr_willis: yes, that's what i was saying. he can't use primaries, since he'd end up with 5
[04:38] <LjL> dr_willis: well actually that goes for Windows as well..
[04:38] <gmvagb> h
[04:38] <pookemax> how bout using the default burner
[04:38] <steel_lady> Hi, I have complicated installation problem and I need help please!
[04:38] <Neillithan> ljl, are you familiar with norton partition magic?
[04:38] <dr_willis> iad to explain this to a guy at work the other day. had to draw him several pictures.
[04:38] <LjL> gmvagb: test successful. now what's your support question?
[04:38] <Enverex|LT> Does anyone here have, or have access to a Dell Inspiron 6400?
[04:39] <LjL> Neillithan: no, and i haven't heard well of it at all. i suggest GParted.
[04:39] <steel_lady> Averex, I do
[04:39] <LjL> !gparted | Neillithan
[04:39] <ubotu> Neillithan: GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[04:39] <steel_lady> Enverex
[04:39] <Enverex|LT> steel_lady, Do you have an X1400 in it? (ATi GPU)
[04:39] <Neillithan> ljl, I will keep that in mind. for the moment, i am using windows to partition
[04:40] <steel_lady> Enverex, I am stupid, so tell me where and how should I look for it?
[04:40] <fanch59> errrrrr... nobody can help with my wireless connection then ?
[04:40] <Neillithan> ljl, here is how it works.
[04:40] <vox754> !wifi
[04:40] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:40] <LjL> Neillithan: make sure you have backups before doing things such as resizing partitions (whether you're using PM or GParted)
[04:40] <behdad_> fanch59: what is your wifi problem ?
[04:40] <mc44> steel_lady: what is your problem?
[04:40] <fanch59> i've already read tons of wikis on wireless...
[04:40] <Enverex|LT> steel_lady, erm... can you pastebin the output of "lspci" please?
[04:40] <emarkd> can anyone help me config the media buttons on my keyboard in edgy?  I need to change their function from the commandline.  Anybody got any ideas?
[04:41] <Neillithan> ljl, c is primary, e is primary, linux is logical, swap is logical. linux and swap are encased in the "extended" blue bubble thing
[04:41] <gil> what is the fix for this TLS problem in aMSN?
[04:41] <fanch59> my problem is tha tmy landlord protects his network with a wpa key
[04:41] <LjL> Neillithan: yes that's correct
[04:41] <Neillithan> ljl: allright then, all is well!
[04:41] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> how can i change grubs os boot order?
[04:41] <Neillithan> ljl: and yes, i have made backups of all important data.
[04:41] <behdad_> fanch59: ok , then ?
[04:41] <fanch59> and network manager doesn't have wpa in the list of possible encryption
[04:41] <LjL> Neillithan: just make sure when you install Ubuntu not to mix up partition numbers...
[04:41] <fanch59> so i've installed wpa_supplicant
[04:41] <steel_lady> enverex, what is the link to pastebin?
[04:41] <platman> NEWUBUNTUUSER281:  you have to modify the grub menu.lst
[04:42] <Neillithan> ljl: i will be relying on partition sizes, not numbers
[04:42] <LjL> Neillithan: best to take note of the sizes, and then make sure they match when you install, rather than guess the numbers
[04:42] <LjL> right
[04:42] <Enverex|LT> steel_lady, pastebin.ca
[04:42] <Neillithan> ljl, indeed!
[04:42] <fanch59> i've tryed to configure it as well as /etc/network/interfaces
[04:42] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> platman i tried to edit the list but it pulls up a blank in terminal
[04:42] <gil> anyone? How can i get aMSN to pick up the TLS lib. I have it installed but it wont pick up
[04:42] <fanch59> but i'm still not able to connect to network
[04:42] <Neillithan> ljl: well, one thing i have not backed up is the type 88 restore partition.
[04:42] <steel_lady> mc44: I have to install wip that needs to have installed pgplot well before and it seems that somebody did something bad about pgplot installation through synaptic
[04:42] <platman> use gedit to modify it. you must have root permission to open it
[04:42] <Neillithan> ljl: i do have a restore disk that came with the laptop, will the disk be sufficient by itself?
[04:42] <LjL> Neillithan: if you're not going to resize it (and you shouldn't), that shouldn't be a *huge* concern.
[04:43] <behdad_> fanch59: wait
[04:43] <Wagner-> question: i have two HDs in the computer, each was partitioned into multiple partitions under windows; i installed feisty fawn as dual boot; how can i tell which HD (primary or secondary) feisty fawn installed itself on (shrinking one of the windoze partitions)
[04:43] <LjL> Neillithan: i have no idea honestly. probably not, or they wouldn't have put that partition there ;)
[04:43] <fanch59> i'm very new in linuw (less than 1 week)
[04:43] <Neillithan> ljl gay!
[04:43] <MEL> hi, I'm new. How do you ask a question here?
[04:43] <CheshireViking> !ask | MEL
[04:43] <ubotu> MEL: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:43] <LjL> MEL: use your keyboard
[04:43] <Neillithan> ljl: well, that sucks hard!

[04:43] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> how do i gain root permission?
[04:43] <Neillithan> ljl: ooops! sorry
[04:43] <behdad_> fanch59: have you ever tried iw.. commands ?
[04:43] <MEL> OK...vmserver
[04:44] <platman> NEWUBUNTUUSER281:  use "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst"
[04:44] <steel_lady> Enverex http://pastebin.ca/487521
[04:44] <behdad_> fanch59: like iwconfig ?

[04:44] <LjL> !root > NEWUBUNTUUSER281    (NEWUBUNTUUSER281, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:44] <Neillithan> ljl: so.. how would i backup the partition?
[04:44] <fanch59> i've tried some
[04:44] <Dekkard> arent we supposed to use gksudo with gui apps?
[04:44] <platman> NEWUBUNTUUSER281:  sudo gives you admin/root priviledges
[04:44] <Agony> OK, I've tried https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting  - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin

[04:44] <Wagner-> anybody catch my question?
[04:44] <Agony> None of those have helped.

[04:45] <LjL> Neillithan: i'm not a windows user, i hardly know anything about what windows apps are available
[04:45] <luisgmarine> Hello, is it better to have seperate mount partitions for / and /home?
[04:45] <mc44> steel_lady: what error do you get?
[04:45] <Neillithan> ljl: i see.  well.. i'm taking a huge chance here. lol  I think i'm just gonna wing it!
[04:45] <MEL> too fast for me...Anyone know how to get vmserver to work?
[04:45] <LjL> Neillithan: keep in mind that gparted, partimage and friends are all things that you can (temporarily, of course) install while on the Ubuntu live CD.
[04:45] <fanch59> behdad, can we talk in private message please ? (i'm french and find it hard to follow the conversation in the chatroom)
[04:45] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> ok platman for the first time it opened
[04:45] <vox754> !repeat > MEL
[04:45] <Dekkard> the theory is that haveing seperate home and root partitions makes it easier to upgrade the os... some dont some do.. your milage will vary
[04:46] <behdad_> fanch59: yes sure
[04:46] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> now look for the number of the line?
[04:46] <Neillithan> ljl: i am wanting to install ubuntu 7.04... and i did not see a live cd available for that.
[04:46] <fanch59> thanks
[04:46] <LjL> Neillithan: uh?
[04:46] <steel_lady> mc44, I install pgplot and it is supposed to install fortran and C compiles together with it and then compile libraries but after I install it through synaptic, it looks perfect untill I see that actually didn't put compilers nor compiled
[04:46] <vox754> !install
[04:46] <boggystudios> how do I add a program to my /etc/init.d so I can then run update-rc ?
[04:46] <ubotu> Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[04:46] <LjL> Neillithan: the standard, so-called "Desktop CD", the one you get right from www.ubuntu.com, *is* a live CD
[04:46] <bluesign_> what is the easiest way to stream an avi over internet with vlc?
[04:46] <Neillithan> ljl: no kiddin
[04:46] <Agony> Does anyone have any *other* ideas for getting my sound to work?
[04:46] <platman> NEWUBUNTUUSER281:  just copy and paste it so that the entry you want to be first, is the first entry
[04:46] <MEL> !setup
[04:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about setup - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:47] <Neillithan> ljl: i guess i "do" have the live cd afterall. haha
[04:47] <CheshireViking> luisgmarine, if you have a seperate partition for /home, if you have to reinstall, the info/data in /home wouldn't get deleted
[04:47] <LjL> !live | Neillithan
[04:47] <ubotu> Neillithan: Ubuntu Dapper 'Desktop' CD contains a Live CD (Ubuntu that runs straight off the CD and RAM) with an install option. Breezy's Live CD contained no install.
[04:47] <mc44> steel_lady: hmm, I dont know then, sorry
[04:47] <LjL> Neillithan: (where "dapper" means "dapper and following versions", of course)
[04:47] <eggstain> hey all
[04:47] <steel_lady> please, is there somebody who colud help me?
[04:48] <eggstain> i deleted my /usr/share/pixmaps dir - is there any quick way of fixinf this
[04:48] <rambo3> no
[04:48] <Neillithan> ljl: allright so... i will commence with the partition resizing, and then boot up on the live cd and install via ubuntu.
[04:48] <luisgmarine> CheshireViking: so its recommended that you have a seperate / and /home?
[04:48] <luisgmarine> easier for upgrades right?
[04:48] <platman> eggstain:  you can get anyone to just send you a copy of theirs
[04:48] <MEL> how do I find someone who can help me?
[04:48] <LjL> luisgmarine: i wouldn't go as far as saying it's "recommended"... but it's hardly a bad idea ;)
[04:48] <Enverex> steel_lady, Ok thanks, you're kinda lacking the key thing I need though, nevermind.
[04:48] <Enverex> Does anyone here have, or have access to a Dell Inspiron 6400?
[04:49] <rullie> MEL, you type the question here and expect someone to answer you
[04:49] <eggstain> platman, interested in sending yours
[04:49] <underfire> I have dual-boot setup: Ubuntu and XP Pro. After I boot to XP (then shutdown), GRUB won't load. I have to repair the MBR with grub-install (from the Ubuntu Live CD) in order to get the system to boot. Any ideas for a permanent solution?
[04:49] <Linoob> TMC
[04:49] <MEL> OK...I expect that someone will help me set up Vmserver in Fiesty.
[04:49] <platman> eggstain:  i am not interested in registering for pm's. I was hoping someone here would step up
[04:49] <CheshireViking> luisgmarine, i don't know whether its recommended, I've just learned from experience & I make sure a setup up a seperate parition for /home now
[04:49] <steel_lady> Enverex, can you tell me what is that thing and what does it serve for?
[04:49] <luisgmarine> haha that's all I needed
[04:49] <rambo3> eggstain, you could try reinstalling some gnome packe that has pixmaps . search apt for gnome pixmap
[04:50] <C_Kode> MEL: Compile problems?
[04:50] <Enverex> steel_lady, I need to find someone with the ATi X1300 or X1400 cards built in, I need to know if you can switch from the onboard to the discreet card via the BIOS
[04:50] <MEL> Nope. I believe it's a Fiesty issue.
[04:50] <platman> eggstain:  give me a moment. i'm going to tar the file so i can send you the folder
[04:50] <steel_lady> enverex, are those graphic cards'
[04:50] <eggstain> platman, great thanks
[04:50] <C_Kode> Ahh.  Not sure.  I use CentOS for my VMWare servers
[04:51] <emarkd> can anyone help me config the media buttons on my keyboard in edgy?  I need to change their function from the commandline.  Anybody got any ideas?
[04:51] <Linoob> My son's computer is dual boot, windows and linux. The other day the linux partion upgraded to Fiesty Fawn. In the process it wrecked the Grub files menu.lst file and now it won't boot to windows.. does anyone have the line(s) from the menu.lst file that I can type back into the file to get the Window boot ability back ?
[04:51] <luisgmarine> CheshireViking: I have a 160 GB hdd, 50 GB are going to my torrents/music, and then the rest is for Ubuntu, so that 110GB, what would you recommend I break those up into?  Like how much for /home and how much for / ?
[04:51] <MEL> Worked well in Edgy...Now wont work
[04:51] <steel_lady> enverex if you need something specific of drivers or something, you can find it through the dell page for sure
[04:51] <[tpm] > MEL, check out this: http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/server.html
[04:51] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> ok do i copy and paste # also?
[04:51] <Enverex> steel_lady, No... I need specific information that only someone with one of these laptops with those cards in could answer.
[04:52] <MEL> Okay. Going there. Thanks.
[04:52] <Hadron> emarkd: which kbd? Most just work.
[04:52] <Enverex> steel_lady, and I'm pretty sure Dell wouldn't have Linux drivers on their site anyway, not that I need them
[04:52] <C_Kode> Linoob: http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/Installing-GRUB-natively.html
[04:52] <emarkd> hadron:  yeah, it works fine but i have two audio cards and need to switch which card the volume buttons control...
[04:52] <Greg__> hello
[04:52] <Hadron> Enverex: the drivers would have no impact on BIOS card selection. None.
[04:52] <Linoob> thanks I'll go check that out !
[04:52] <platman> eggstain:  did you get the file?
[04:53] <Enverex> Hadron, ... I never said they would
[04:53] <rockzman> Does anyone know how to log on a windows domain using ubuntu?
[04:53] <vox754> luisgmarine, 15 GB for / are more than enough, the rest may go to /home or to other partitions like /mystuff /Ddata you can create new partitions and experiment
[04:53] <steel_lady> Enverex, I am sorry. Right now I am desperate myself because noone offers to help me and I tried everything I could alone
[04:53] <CheshireViking> luisgmarine, maybe 15-20gb for /home, say 1gb for /swap and the rest for /home, a basic ubuntu install only takes about 3gb, so the 15-20gb for /home is probably over the top
[04:53] <coolbeans> Hi all.  How would I burn files to a DVD-RW from the command line in Dapper?
[04:53] <platman> rockzman:  you have to set up samba to do this
[04:53] <MEL> tpm...used your link earlier for Edgy...Doesn't seem to work for Fiesty
[04:53] <luisgmarine> CheshireViking: you mean for /?
[04:53] <eggstain> platman, I didnt see anything happen
[04:53] <someothernick> MEL: http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-install-vmware-server-from-canonical-commercial-repository-in-ubuntu-feisty.html
[04:53] <MEL> The forums leave the question open.
[04:54] <luisgmarine> 1024 MB = 1GB right?
[04:54] <arn_> hi, is there any better IDE for gcc which support auto complete while developing? I am using Ubuntu 6.1
[04:54] <Hadron> Enverex: soory was steel_lady
[04:54] <CheshireViking> luisgmarine, sorry, yes i did mean "/"
[04:54] <platman> do you know how to receive a file via irc? if you dont just pm me your email address and i can email it to you
[04:54] <rockzman> platman can you help me ?
[04:54] <mungos> First thing to do is make a programme table that XINE can use. This will be called channels.conf and should normally be created in ~/.xine/. Included in DVB-Utils is a tool called scan that will create this file for you. IIRC scan works like this but better check the help before you try! UPDATE: I checked and this is actually how to do it: You need the initialization data so scan knows which frequencies to scan. This initialization data ca
[04:54] <mungos> n be downloaded at linuxtv.org. They are included in the dvb apps and have listings for DVB-C, DVB-S and DVB-T. No need to compile the proggies as we have already installed them with apt-get but these initialization files are very important to make a channels.conf. Execute this command in the directory with the initialization files (I put them in /usr/bin/dvb)
[04:54] <mungos> scan -o zap path/to/initialization > /path/to/channels.conf
[04:54] <usser> arn_ i use kdevelop but thats for kde
[04:54] <mungos> who can hel me how to create that
[04:54] <Greg__> does anyone know how to bypass file check on startup???
[04:54] <Hadron> arn_: there are several. Most are rubbish. I use emacs + cedet but its incomplete, hard to get working and buggy. Try anjuta. About the best of the lot (which I dont use because its java) is eclipse with the CDT plugin.
[04:55] <platman> rockzman:  i dont have any windows computers so i dont know how to set samba up unfortunately. i use only linux
[04:55] <Hadron> usser: kdevelop can be used for gnome too. or anything.
[04:55] <platman> eggstain:  do you know how to receive a file via irc? if you dont just pm me your email address and i can email it to you
[04:55] <rockzman> platman but u said it is possible to login on a linux workstation using ur windows server login and password through samba?
[04:55] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> Platman: can i send you my text file and you edit my boot order then i save over ?
[04:56] <Knoeki> how do I change permissions on a HDD if the HDD is currently owned by root?
[04:56] <Hadron> arn_: things to google : cedet, semantic, etags, ebrowse, cscope, lxr
[04:56] <usser> Hadron yea i know
[04:56] <srbaker> folks
[04:56] <srbaker> what do i use for scanners these days?  still SANE?
[04:56] <Hadron> usser: then why say the opposite?
[04:56] <arn_> Hadron, What did you mean by that?
[04:56] <Greg__> please tell me how
[04:56] <Wayne1> Can anyone refer me to some link's that would be helpful for a new person to linux ubuntu ???
[04:57] <steel_lady> Heeeelp! I am going to comit suicide!!!!
[04:57] <CheshireViking> rockzman, have a look at this, it explains how to use a linux machine to mount & access a windows server drive http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_mount_network_folders_on_boot-up.2C_and_allow_all_users_to_read.2Fwrite
[04:57] <usser> Hadron some people prefer clean gnome installation
[04:57] <Hadron> arn_: mean by what?
[04:57] <mc44> Wayne1: what do you want help on?
[04:57] <MEL> Hi another question...Anyone know how to set up Vnc4server in Fiesty?
[04:57] <SlimeyPete> Knoeki: the HDD isn't owned by root. The directory it is mounted into is. You can use chmod to change the permissions for the directory.
[04:57] <Hadron> usser: aha. I see. Yes, me too :)
[04:57] <arn_> arn_: things to google : cedet, semantic, etags, ebrowse, cscope, lxr
[04:57] <SlimeyPete> steel_lady: you want the Samaritans, not #ubuntu...
[04:57] <platman> rockzman:  it is possible.
[04:57] <Wayne1> mc44: Anything nothing in particular ; i'm willing to learn anything that's thrown at me.
[04:57] <Hadron> arn_: come on. You don't understand what I mean by "things to google"?
[04:57] <platman> NEWUBUNTUUSER281:  use pastebin to paste your text in menu.lst
[04:57] <LjL> Wayne1: then keep a close watch on this channel :P
[04:57] <Knoeki> SlimeyPete: the HDD *IS* owned by root (it's not the primary HDD)
[04:57] <Wayne1>   LjL ; Thank you.
[04:58] <Hadron> arn_: go to goole and search for those things.
[04:58] <Enverex> steel_lady, What exactly was your problem?
[04:58] <steel_lady> SlimeyPete, I want Ubuntu that works! Somebody did the bad thing in this distribution
[04:58] <SlimeyPete> Knoeki: do you mean that the device is owned by root? In which case I'm not sure how you can change it, or why you'd want to....
[04:58] <arn_> Hadron, personal jargon might not be familiar with people
[04:58] <centrodia> hola

[04:59] <ubotu> centrodia: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[04:59] <Hadron> arn_: "things to google" us not "personal jargon". You might be more productive to acknowledge the previous list I gave.
[04:59] <MEL> vnc or vpn?

[04:59] <centrodia> hola
[04:59] <Guest88856> Hello.
[04:59] <steel_lady> Enverex, as I said somebody did something bad, so when you install pgplot through synaptic or manually, it doesn't pull dependencies nor compilers nor comiles and installs properly. and when I look for components I run into a wall. and all that I need to install another program that should be in repository but it is not!

[05:00] <Guest88856> In the future
[05:00] <MEL> do you know how to set up vnc in Fiesty?
[05:00] <arn_> Hadron, I appreciate your suggestions, but i am little bit surprised seeing you, my not knowing your jargon
[05:00] <Guest88856> We use OpenBSD.

[05:00] <SlimeyPete> Knoeki: so just mount it. As long as you mount it into a directory which is set to allow you to edit, you should be able to edit the file.
[05:00] <centrodia> hello

[05:00] <MEL> thanks
[05:00] <PriceChild> Guest88856, that is offtopic.
[05:01] <Hadron> Guest88856: trolling is not funny here. Go to comp.os.linux.advocacy with the other wierdos.

[05:10] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> i realy like beryl
[05:10] <jhaig> Paddy_EIRE: Between the two Linux machines, you can set up NFS to access folders.  To include the Windows PC, you will need Samba.
[05:10] <vox754> insomniac190, most probably the partition is mounted on /media which creates a link in the desktop and on places, you just need to create a directory, say /disks/stuff and mount the partition there.
[05:11] <Paddy_EIRE> jhaig, i have no idea how to do this
[05:11] <Enverex> steel_lady, Are they key to running it or optional extras?

[05:12] <jhaig> Paddy_EIRE: I'm afraid I haven't set up Samba on Ubuntu.  Maybe someone else can help.
[05:12] <fanch59> anyone could help me going through my config to identify teh problem ?
[05:12] <vox754> insomniac190, you could for example hide the partition under several directories so only you know where is it.
[05:12] <orbin> malkadi: ... is that a laptop?
[05:12] <sdf> can i install microsoft power point in linux??
[05:12] <steel_lady> Enverex, they are the very thing to run the other thing

[05:13] <Dr_willis> sdf,  wine can run some windows programs
[05:13] <usser> sdf yes u can some of windows programs
[05:13] <SlimeyPete> sdf: some Windows programs, yes. You can use WINE to run some Windows programs (but not all of them)
[05:13] <insomniac190> vox754: i don't need all that, only one using this computer
[05:13] <Paddy_EIRE> jhaig, how about nfs??
[05:13] <steel_lady> Enverex, I think that somebody did sbad ab because it does not do what it says in its descriptionout it in the packageomething principally

[05:14] <sdf> can i install it?
[05:14] <steel_lady> Enverex, my keyboard is joking with me. So, something is wrong about that package and they should correct it
[05:14] <Tailsfan> Anyone know if they'll be a thing that support Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for Ubuntu?
[05:14] <orbin> Falstius: i assume you meant to put "website creator" after wysiwyg.  try nvu.
[05:14] <Enverex> steel_lady, So file a bug
[05:15] <vox754> insomniac190, you could mount it everywhere, but I think only media creates the link. Try it, then tell me. I, for example, use a generic /Z directory to mount various partitions that I seldom use.
[05:15] <usser> sdf unlikely

[05:17] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> ok, going there now
[05:18] <randomwalker> usser: openoffice might kinda sorta work for really basic stuff
[05:18] <neverblue> when i first install postgresql, what DB is created or what username can I login with initially(and the pass) ?
[05:18] <randomwalker> usser: but for making real presentations it sucks big time
[05:18] <peacemaker> please how to start azureus after installation?
[05:18] <jhaig> Paddy_EIRE: There may be a simple way to set it up using the GUI.  Have a look under settings for sharing folders (I'm afraid I don't have Ubuntu booted up at the moment).
[05:18] <usser> randomwalker hm i heard that impress outdoes powerpoint big time =)
[05:18] <fanch59> i'm sorry to insist, but i really need help to sort this wifi problem out... i've spent days reading wikis and tutos, and it's still not working. What is more i'm an expat, and without this wireless connection i can't communicate with my friends and family....
[05:19] <randomwalker> usser: heard? well, i actually use it, and it doesn't come close
[05:19] <tuna-fish> How can I quickly compress a lot of raw images into jpeg or something?
[05:19] <usser> randomwalker oh ok lol =)
[05:19] <neverblue> and is phppgadmin installed properly (in web root), on an install, cause I dont see it there
[05:19] <jhaig> Paddy_EIRE: I can help you do it by editing configuration files by hand, but there is probably an easier way to do it.
[05:19] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> ok lol i registered
[05:19] <orbin> fanch59: what's the issue?
[05:20] <fanch59> can we talk in pm orbin ?
[05:20] <dbrewer_rjr> what is the cheapest best raid card for a dapper drake raid 1 setup. We used a 1280 adaptec card, but it was fakeraid and sucked.
[05:20] <peacemaker> i need your help
[05:20] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> Platman: i copyed and pasted, says i am registerd now lol
[05:20] <steel_lady> enverex, to file a bug to whom? It takes days, I need a work to be done :-(
[05:20] <orbin> peacemaker: hunt for it in the menu or create a new entry for it if it's not there
[05:21] <fanch59> well...apparently not, so let's do it here.....
[05:21] <orbin> fanch59: i'd rather keep it in channel so people can chip in if need be
[05:21] <fruitbag> Hey guys...
[05:21] <fanch59> ok
[05:21] <fruitbag> Would it be possible to download and install Ubuntu through ethernet?
[05:21] <insomniac190> voz754: mounting it to the mnt dir displayed it on the desktop
[05:21] <platman> NEWUBUNTUUSER281:  i sent you a pm to verify if you registered. send me one back
[05:21] <fanch59> i'll try my best to be clear and concise
[05:21] <orbin> fanch59: if you sent me a pm i didn't see it.  you're probably not registered
[05:22] <fruitbag> ...I want to install Ubuntu through the network rather than using a disk, since my CD-ROM drive is corrupt.

[05:22] <annimar> hi there
[05:22] <dbrewer_rjr> what is the cheapest best raid card for a dapper drake raid 1 setup. We used a 1280 adaptec card, but it was fakeraid and sucked
[05:22] <fanch59> but in network manager, i've got 3 wireless interfaces detected
[05:22] <Enverex> dbrewer_rjr, Like 300GBP
[05:23] <fanch59> Ra0 is the one i don't want to use....
[05:23] <annimar> I was here yesterday, asking for some help with gnome-main-menu
[05:23] <fanch59> then i've got wmaster0 and wlan0
[05:23] <annimar> has anybody here working it flawlessly on feisty?
[05:23] <fanch59> i've tried to configure /network/interfaces using both, but there is no real difference...
[05:23] <orbin> fanch59: please prepend your messages with my nick so they highlight for me, and try to keep it on one line :)
[05:23] <fruitbag> Any suggestions here?
[05:23] <boggystudios> how can I get "/opt/lampp/lampp start" to run every time my computer turns on?

[05:24] <fanch59> orbin sorry.....
[05:24] <Dr_willis> boggystudios,  one way is to use the /etc/rc.local script feature

[05:24] <fanch59> orbin i can't connect to my landlord's wireless wpa network, though i've installed and configured wpa_supplicant
[05:24] <Neillithan> is there a way I can access the internet in ubuntu, wirelessly?
[05:25] <boggystudios> Dr_willis: I thought of adding it to the default runlevel of the computer but can't find a tutorial on how to do that
[05:25] <fruitbag> SlimeyPete: would I need to provide an address?
[05:25] <CheshireViking> !wifi | Neillithan
[05:25] <ubotu> Neillithan: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:25] <SlimeyPete> fruitbag: check out http://wiki.koeln.ccc.de/index.php/Ubuntu_PXE_Install    (I've not tried it myself)
[05:25] <fruitbag> Thanks
[05:25] <Dr_willis> boggystudios,   check out the sysv runlevel docs/tutoirials.. or the rc.d scripts for examples.
[05:25] <dbrewer_rjr> Enverex: can you recommend a raid card for sata that will run raid 1 as a true hardware raid?
[05:25] <Dr_willis> boggystudios,  ubuntu uses a new style init system also. so you proberly should check the ubuntu docs/himepage/wiki/forums
[05:25] <SlimeyPete> fruitbag: the problem is, you'll need an existing Linux box to use as the server.
[05:25] <Elko> Dr_willis: the only thing I can find in gdm.conf is autologin, and google isn't helping either, so I guess it's not possible :(
[05:26] <fruitbag> Ah...
[05:26] <fanch59> orbin maybe i need to precise as well that i've installed my card's driver via nsdiwrapper
[05:26] <fruitbag> I'm currently using Win XP
[05:26] <Dr_willis> Elko,  im not clear on what you are wanting it to do.
[05:26] <boggystudios> Dr_willis: ok thanks, I will look there

[05:26] <SlimeyPete> fruitbag: I don't think you'll be able to do it then, sorry. Do you have a floppy drive? There's an outside chance that someone's put the net-installer onto floppies, I guess.
[05:27] <insomniac190> vox754: mounting it to /z/windows also displays the partition.  im gonna eat something and then ill mess wioth this a bit more
[05:27] <KEvinFK> hello i have a question
[05:27] <PocketIRC> I get a high pitched sound from my laptop when i charge it..is it dangerous ?
[05:27] <SlimeyPete> fruitbag: I've not heard of anyone doing it but it used to be available for Debian, which Ubuntu is based on, so you never know...
[05:27] <orbin> fanch59: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org  please paste the output of lsusb, iwconfig, iwlist scan, and the contents of /etc/network/interfaces
[05:27] <dbrewer_rjr> Can anyone recommend a raid card for sata that will run raid 1 as a true hardware raid on dapper?
[05:27] <Dr_willis> Hmm.. a Ubuntu livecd/dvd that boots up a server. that lets the other machines on the lan install ubuntu.. that would be a neat idea
[05:27] <SlimeyPete> Dr_willis: yeah
[05:27] <CheshireViking> fruitbag, I think on that link from ubotu, there's instructions on how to install via a usb key, is that something you've thought about?
[05:27] <Elko> Dr_willis: when the gdm login screen appears, I want the last used username to be printed so I just have to press enter, instead of filling in the username each time. autologin isn't an option, because I /do/ want my machine to be protected by a password
[05:28] <chirs_need_help> hi, i have a problem... i first installed kubuntu, and now i installed ubuntu. Both show a blackscreen when the loginscreen should appear.
[05:28] <annimar> KEvinFK: What's up?
[05:28] <KEvinFK> i am trying to install ubuntu but idk which drive to install it on
[05:28] <PocketIRC> I get a high pitched sound from my laptop when i charge it..is it dangerous ?
[05:28] <chirs_need_help> there are some red and yellow stripes
[05:28] <KEvinFK> i have win xp running on a drive but is divited how do i selec the second one
[05:28] <vox754> insomniac190, okay, it is strange since I tell you it works for me... Well I'm still using Edgy. Maybe something with the masks or the like...
[05:28] <annimar> PocketIRC: Do you happen to have a Powerbook?
[05:28] <Neillithan> I'm trying to connect to my wireless network, and it says "password type:" "wep key (hexadecimal)" I'm pretty sure in the router, it is set to use WPA.. is this a problem?
[05:28] <randomwalker> Elko: i don't think such a feature is available
 nope..
[05:29] <Dr_willis> Elko,  hmm.. Mine defaulted to that way with the normal kdm login..
[05:29] <Dr_willis> i think. :)
[05:29] <Dr_willis> or ya could make the login screen just show icons of the users
[05:29] <dbrewer_rjr> I am having raid 1 probs on dapper. Can anyone recommend an inexpensive raid card for sata that will run raid 1 as a true hardware raid on dapper?
[05:29] <orbin> Neillithan: try using the network manager applet instead.
[05:29] <fruitbag> CheshireViking: ah...
[05:30] <fruitbag> From USB, eh?
[05:30] <fruitbag> That'll do...
[05:30] <annimar> PocketIRC: I had this problem on my Powerbook, it only happend when I plugged the a/c adapter directly in. Using the extension cord stopped the sound.
[05:30] <Neillithan> orbin: how would i do that?
[05:30] <Paddy_EIRE> jhaig, Im finding this a little difficult or overly complicated in comparison to networking win machines
[05:30] <fruitbag> What link is this?
[05:30] <CheshireViking> !install | fruitbag
[05:30] <Elko> Dr_willis, randomwalker: I'll fiddle around some more with this, it must be possible ;)
[05:30] <ubotu> fruitbag: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[05:30] <orbin> Neillithan: by default, near the clock, you should see an applet on the panel that looks like two computers
[05:30] <CheshireViking> fruitbag, i think its from that first link from ubotu
[05:30] <orbin> Neillithan: do you see your network when you left-click on it?
[05:31] <Neillithan> orbin, I see manual configuration.
[05:31] <C_Kode> dbrewer_: Most SATA RAID controllers arn't actually hardware raid.  They are bios level software raids.
[05:31] <Neillithan> orbin, from within there, I see wireless connection
[05:31] <CheshireViking> fruitbag, there's a few options that might help part way down the page, even installing from windows
[05:31] <C_Kode> dbrewer: Though, I beleive 3ware's is actually a hardware raid
[05:31] <dbrewer_rjr> C_Kode: yes, that is why i am asking
[05:31] <Paddy_EIRE> could anyone tell me why networking in linux is so overly complicated compared to win
[05:32] <BleSS> is secure to delete almost users and groups that are built by default? (to configure a server)
[05:32] <KEvinFK> i need help installing ubuntu on a single harddrive sharing win xp hdd has been split already but ubunto software won't detect it please send me a privete if u can walk me trhough
[05:32] <orbin> Neillithan: open a terminal, and type in iwconfig.  don't paste anything here.  do you see data about a wireless interface?
[05:32] <annimar> Paddy_EIRE: I hate networking in Windows and like it a lot in Linux.
[05:32] <Dr_willis> BleSS,  i dont think you sould be doing that - untill you see what they do. I dont see what you would gain security wise either.
[05:32] <fratermisc> Paddy_EIRE, excessive flexibility.
[05:32] <C_Kode> dbrewer: http://www.3ware.com/products/serial_ata.asp
[05:32] <dbrewer_rjr> C_Kode: 3ware is tried and true with dapper?
[05:33] <annimar> again: anyone using gnome-main-menu here?
[05:33] <fanch59> orbin shall i select something from the syntax list ?
[05:33] <fratermisc> Paddy_EIRE, but articulating your pain in a good way might drive improvement in the ubuntu network config applets.
[05:33] <Neillithan> orbin, i tried to configure the orbin, i see 3 lines that say "no wireless extensions" and then below that, a bunch of stuff
[05:33] <C_Kode> dbrewer: I don't know.  Check Google and their website
[05:33] <orbin> fanch59: no
[05:33] <Neillithan> orbin, oops, ignore the first sentence i typed
[05:33] <orbin> Neillithan: as in IEEE 802.11g etc?
[05:33] <Neillithan> orbin, yessir
[05:33] <BleSS> Dr_willis: ok, but it's recommended in some howtos about security
[05:34] <dbrewer_rjr> oops they are bringing the network down ....bbl
[05:34] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: I find that networking in linux actually works better (or at all)
[05:34] <orbin> Neillithan: type in: iwlist scan.  does it show your network?
[05:34] <latinoguy> I Installed beryl but i can not see the cube i just turn to the other desktops but no cube what im making wrong
[05:34] <Neillithan> orbin, from within the router, I chose WPA encryption. is that going to be a problem?
[05:34] <orbin> Neillithan: no
[05:34] <Dr_willis> BleSS,  they reccomend it -but dont explain it? :) may want to find some better docs.
[05:34] <AgentSmith> Hello.
[05:34] <rambo3> latinoguy, ctrl + alt + left click
[05:34] <Dr_willis> BleSS,  ubuntu tends to default to the most secure setups it can manage also.
[05:34] <Kisom> When I create a new user using adduser, does the user have permission by default to write to any other folders than his home?
[05:34] <orbin> Neillithan: it may be helpful to unhide your SSID if you have done so
[05:34] <Neillithan> orbin, scan completed
[05:34] <latinoguy> i made that
[05:34] <AgentSmith> Dr. Willis.
[05:34] <Paddy_EIRE> annimar, then can you tell me how I can setup a simple home network with 1 tower (connected to wireless hub/router via ethernet then connected to isp's router)  and 2 laptops (wireless linux comps)
[05:34] <fanch59> orbin: it's pasted
[05:35] <orbin> fanch59: link?
[05:35] <Dr_willis> Kisom,  the /tmp directory perhaps.
[05:35] <Neillithan> orbin, how would i unhide my ssid?
[05:35] <Senih> how can i ask someone for help
[05:35] <Senih> ?
[05:35] <latinoguy> but i want to see it in the front of the desktop
[05:35] <BleSS> Dr_willis: it's true, thanks
[05:35] <Dr_willis> Senih,  you just did. :)
[05:35] <CheshireViking> Senih, just ask your question, if anybody knows & is able to help, just wait for the reply
[05:35] <orbin> Neillithan: just the two words? scan completed?
[05:35] <fanch59> orbin: sorry :) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20816/
[05:35] <Paddy_EIRE> annimar, I just want to share files in as simple amount of hassle compared to win
[05:35] <Neillithan> orbin, it found cell 01 and cell 02. i'm pretty sure cell 02 is my network.
[05:35] <annimar> Paddy_EIRE: Have you tried iFolder?
[05:36] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: can all the boxes reach the internet?
[05:36] <latinoguy> rambo3: i did that and it turns and show me the next desktop, but i want to see it in the center of my sceen thanks
[05:36] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, yes
[05:36] <Paddy_EIRE> annimar, never heard of it
[05:36] <rambo3> !beryl | latinoguy

[05:36] <annimar> Paddy_EIRE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IFolder
[05:36] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: some wireless routers won't act as a switch with respect to the wireless network, so you wouldn't be able to communicate directly between them in that case
[05:37] <mtha> hi, has anyone here got a lenovo 3000 c100?
[05:37] <orbin> fanch59: when you left click on the network manager applet (two computer icons near the clock)  what do you see?
[05:37] <neverblue> when doing a new postgresql install, is a new user created, so you can connect to it?
[05:37] <Neillithan> orbin, what should i do now?
[05:37] <latinoguy> rambo3: i had read all that info thanks anyway
[05:37] <AgentSmith> It seems you have been living two lives, Dr. Willis. In one life you are Dr. Willis, a succesful doctor helping heal the sick... in the other.. you go by the name "Dr_Willis" spreading lies and homosexual propaganda among the innocent users of this chatroom.
[05:37] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, I'm pretty sure this one does

[05:38] <latinoguy> im alredy doing it
[05:38] <latinoguy> thanks
[05:38] <jamiehd> For no apparent reason, whenever I try to log on to ubuntu, it tells me that the files that contain myy preference settings are in use by another user. I click continue, and it says "Please contact your system administrator to solve the following problem:
[05:38] <jamiehd> Could not resolve the address"xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory" in the configuration file"/etc/gconf/2/path" Failed: Couldn't locate backend module for'xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.mandatory'"
[05:38] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, because it says on the box
[05:38] <orbin> Neillithan: your device seems to be working.  it's just a quirk that the applet sometimes conflicts with the networking tool you were playing with
[05:38] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: what does it say?
[05:38] <orbin> Neillithan: follow those steps to let the applet take control and hopefully let you connect
[05:39] <fanch59> orbin: i can see "cable network" (the one i'm using now but cannot use all the time), then i've got "wireless network RT2500" and no network below, and "unknown usb specific vendor interface" with a list of networks, which varies according to where i am in the house...
[05:39] <Neillithan> orbin, it will not be able to connect. the network is password protected
[05:39] <jamiehd> No one got any ideas why? :-(
[05:39] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, here is the router http://www.amazon.com/D-Link-DI-524-Wireless-Router-802-11g/dp/B0001PFQ08
[05:39] <orbin> Neillithan: not following you
[05:40] <orbin> fanch59: have you tried connecting that way?
[05:40] <Neillithan> orbin, well... i need to manually type a password to connect to the wireless network.. by connecting automatically, it cannot connect i assume
[05:40] <Toma-> What group should a secure ftp user belong to?
[05:40] <orbin> fanch59: i.e. select the netowrk you wish to connect to.
[05:40] <Toma-> ftp?
[05:41] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: well that doesn't specifically say if you can or can't
[05:41] <mtha> hi, can anyone help me detect my cpu temp? i have a celeron m and acpi -t reveals nothing. neither does speedfan in windows. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.
[05:41] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, yes it does
[05:41] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, read on down
[05:41] <LjL> !info lm-sensors > mtha
[05:41] <gwashburn> which section?
[05:41] <orbin> Neillithan: does it say something about a keyring?
[05:41] <Senih> I have problem with my laptop, i can't change monitor brightness. i already installed the grafic driver nvidia but the slider in Power managment for setting the brightnes is NOT working. Can anyone help me!! Thanks
[05:41] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, product description
[05:41] <Neillithan> orbin, i don't know
[05:42] <mtha> hi LjL, i have tried that, it doesn't work, it says no sensors found although it gives me the module i2c-i801 to load.
[05:42] <fanch59> orbin: yes of course... but if i try manual configuration i cannot select wpa from the list key encryption available, and if i just select my network it says something like " i can"t connect because security involves features not supported by my hardware"
[05:42] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> platman: you here?
[05:42] <orbin> Neillithan: ok, you lost me.  i thought no wireless networks showed up when you left-clicked?
[05:42] <yumanda> Help me, how to install ia32-libs-gtk on a 64bit machine, one app needs this pkg,but i cannt find it
[05:42] <orbin> Neillithan: hence why i told you to follow the configuration steps on that webpage
[05:42] <LjL> mtha: what have you tried exactly? first thing is "sensors-detect" iirc, then you should add the modules it lists to /etc/modwhatever, then reboot (or load the modules manully), then "sensors"
[05:42] <jamiehd> Ok. I'll try the forum.
[05:43] <Neillithan> orbin, the steps are confusing.
[05:43] <wauwau> how can i check the cpu-temperature on an core-duo laptop ?
[05:43] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: well I still don't see it, but anyway, if you can't ping betweent hem then you certainly are not going to be able to do anything else
[05:43] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, how to do this
[05:43] <mtha> LjL, that is exactly what I have tried, I followed a guide on ubuntu forums.org
[05:43] <busfahrer> Excuse me, I'm trying to mount a german language DVD (from a ISO9660 image) via -o loop, but the German special characters  get displayed wrong. Do I need other options?
[05:43] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: and the one I had was a netgear, you could ping between computers but not establish a tcp connection
[05:43] <Neillithan> orbin, nevermind! i was looking at the entirely wrong page.
[05:44] <Neillithan> orbin, I will attempt to follow the steps.
[05:44] <orbin> fanch59: you seemed to have multpile wireless devices.  are they all wpa capable?
[05:44] <fruitbag> ...the guys behind Ubuntu were geniuses.
[05:44] <LjL> mtha: and the "no sensors found" is when you do "sensors", or when doing "sensors-detect"?
[05:44] <Senih> ok, i have problem with my laptop (Sony VAIO), i can't change monitor brightness. i already installed the grafic driver nvidia but the slider in Power managment for setting the brightnes is NOT working. Can anyone help me please. Thanks!
[05:44] <fanch59> orbin: i only have 2 physical devices... and these two are wpa compatible
[05:44] <joseanto> hola
[05:44] <mtha> LjL, it is when i do sensors.
[05:45] <LjL> !es > joseanto    (joseanto, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:45] <Neillithan> orbin, you were wrong. it says, "Note that you can not set up WPA encryption in a gui environment as of Feb 2006 but it is being developed and will come in the future."
[05:45] <LjL> mtha: pastebin the output of "sensors-detect" please
[05:45] <IntuitiveNipple> Senih: Which model Vaio do you have?
[05:45] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> ljl
[05:45] <fanch59> but i could disactivate ra0 if i knew how to... I used to to it when i used windows

[05:45] <mtha> LjL, just give me a second please.
[05:45] <Sal> hey everyone
[05:45] <orbin> Neillithan: what page are you looking at?
[05:45] <LjL> mtha: sure, i'm not going anywhere
[05:45] <Neillithan> orbin, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessNetworking
[05:46] <Sal> HELLO
[05:46] <orbin> fanch59: have you tried selecting connect to other wireless netowrk and entering the netowrk details manually?
[05:46] <mariah> I'm debugging a problem I've had with my Sony Laptop and the generic kernel. The machine runs really slow just after finishing initrd.

[05:46] <mtha> unless you know what you're doing.
[05:46] <mtha> We can start with probing for (PCI) I2C or SMBus adapters.
[05:46] <mtha> Do you want to probe now? (YES/no): y
[05:46] <mtha> Probing for PCI bus adapters...
[05:46] <mtha> Use driver `i2c-i801' for device 0000:00:1f.3: Intel 82801FB ICH6

[05:47] <fanch59> orbin: yes, but i still cannot select wpa encryption from the list. Only 3 types of WEP are present in there
[05:47] <mtha> To continue, we need module `i2c-dev' to be loaded.
[05:47] <mtha> Do you want to load `i2c-dev' now? (YES/no): y
[05:47] <mtha> Module loaded successfully.

[05:47] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, you still there
[05:47] <LjL> orbin: yes?
[05:47] <IntuitiveNipple> Senih: Yeah, its similar to the FE41 range in Europe.
[05:47] <DBO> LjL, I win
[05:47] <Neillithan> orbin, I blame IRC for that one.
[05:47] <mariah>  I'm debugging a problem I've had with my Sony Laptop and the generic kernel. The machine runs really slow just after finishing initrd.
[05:47] <Senih> IntuitiveNipple so can u help me ?
[05:47] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: yeah, did you try pinging between them?
[05:47] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, how
[05:48] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> LJL
[05:48] <IntuitiveNipple> Senih: I suspect it might need some special spicctrl help
[05:48] <gwashburn> open a terminal, and do: ping <ip of other computer>
[05:48] <mtha_> LjL, here is the rest of it: obing for `Winbond W83782D' at 0x290...                   No

[05:48] <mtha_> Probing for `IPMI BMC SMIC' at 0xca8...                     No
[05:48] <mtha_> Some Super I/O chips may also contain sensors. We have to write to

[05:49] <Senih> IntuitiveNipple: ok thanks
[05:49] <mariah> Senih: I just jumped into this but are you messing with a Sony trying to fix brightness?
[05:49] <DBO> mtha_, let me know when your paste is done in #ubuntu-ops, then learn to use pastebin please
[05:49] <orbin> fanch59: hmm, never encountered that before.

[05:49] <Senih> IntuitiveNipple: 7.04 ubuntu
[05:49] <Neillithan> orbin, okay that page totally does not help me. the network manager "is" enabled already
[05:49] <orbin> fanch59: and wpasupplicant is installed you say?
[05:49] <mattl> hey.. does anyone have a link for PPC feisty?
[05:50] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: looking the System -> Administration -> Network Tools
[05:50] <fanch59> orbin: is there any alternative to network manager that i could try with my card ?
[05:50] <IntuitiveNipple> Senih: I've just ordered an FE41Z and in my research for that I found that everything is supported, according to people in the Ubuntu forums, but you might need to dig for answers with Google
[05:50] <NEWUBUNTUUSER281> What hapend to platman?
[05:50] <fanch59> orbin: yes, wpasupplicant is installed...and normally it is configured as well
[05:50] <mtha_> LjL, never mind, here is the URL for the text: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20819/
[05:50] <user5284> this channel is so excessive.
[05:50] <Senih> IntuitiveNipple: OK I'll try. Thanks
[05:50] <IdleOne> what is the command for upgrading to next verion?
[05:51] <orbin> Neillithan: enabled, yes.  configured properly, probably not - that's why you can't see any wireless networks when you left-clicked on it
[05:51] <Neillithan> orbin, you are making me do a pointless tutorial.  it does not say "why" i must do any of these steps. it does not say "how" this will help me
[05:51] <LjL> user5284: especially so when people make the signal/noise ratio worse by making gratuitous comments
[05:51] <Neillithan> orbin, please direct me to the appropriate step.
[05:51] <tappaja> is it possible to set up fan rpm in ubuntu. cool and quiet is working, but fan is 3000rpm all the time
[05:52] <LjL> mtha_: it would seem indeed that there are no sensors detected... kind of weird
[05:52] <orbin> Neillithan: ctrl+f then look for configuring

[05:53] <DBO> morning of the living idiots...
[05:53] <scriper> I read the manpage of grub. In "see also" section it is saying that the full documentation can be found on grub info page. So, i can access it by command "info grub". But after that whatever i see, is the only the same man page, What do i wrong?
[05:53] <mtha_> LjL, i would like to tell you that when I did sensors-detect before I updated my BIOS in january, it wouldn't even give me that, it would just say that no sensors were found.
[05:53] <LjL> mtha_: your BIOS itself does have a page with sensors readings?
[05:53] <fanch59> orbin: can you think of anything i should try ?
[05:54] <mtha_> LjL, no it does not
[05:54] <|ericsson|> Has anyone here ordered 500+ discs from Canonical?
[05:54] <orbin> fanch59: wifi-radar perhaps.  never tried it though.  have you had a look on the forum for any existing threads about missing wpa options?
[05:54] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, I seem to be able to ping between them, when I do the ip address listed in network tools although it just seems to run line after line endlessly
[05:54] <HoocH_LAP> So how do one use WINE after I have installed it ?
[05:54] <LaNCeloT_RW> hi dudes, I need to start firestarter with the Gnome startup, but I should be root to do that... how do I start it?
[05:54] <fanch59> orbin: i've tried these two solutions already
[05:54] <dyrne> |ericsson|: building a fort?
[05:54] <letterman> Hey, I'm trying to convert from Windows, and I have a VIA VT6420 SATA RAID controller connecting a pair of 250 gb drives. I'm trying to get Ubuntu to mount the drives, but it gives me an error. It sees the raid card, it sees the drives as a 456gb volume.. I'm kinda stuck as to what's missing..?
[05:55] <fanch59> orbin: what is said for wpa pbs is to used wpa supplicant, which does not really work in my case i'm affraid...
[05:55] <|ericsson|> dyrne: one would think ;) We've been thinking about distributing @ a university
[05:55] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: are you trying to do filesharing?
[05:55] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, yes
[05:55] <lethu> HoocH_LAP, "wine name_of_the_app" in terminal
[05:55] <Wavesonics> I'm doing a fglrx install and i'm getting: Detected version of X does not have a matching 'x720' directory, any ideas how to fix this?
[05:55] <Neillithan> orbin, okay here is what has occured thus far. you have attempted to help me. your attempts failed. you directed me to a spaghetti tutorial.  the tutorial is too unhelpful to help me.
[05:55] <fanch59> orbin: but if i try wifiradar again, shall i uninstall networkmanager ?
[05:55] <HoocH_LAP> lethu: k ty :)
[05:55] <Neillithan> orbin, now, i don't even know what i need to do, and you aren't being very helpful.
[05:56] <lethu> HoocH_LAP, yw :)
[05:56] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: do you have samba installed?
[05:56] <letterman> has anyone else installed ubuntu with a SATA  raid configuration?
[05:56] <orbin> fanch59: i don't think it's necessary to uninstall it, no
[05:56] <sldkfj> user5284, yeah, instead of a continuous rerun of the same issues, I think this channel should have bots that post urls to the Uubuntu website that would have a credible how to ready to use for the newb,  God knows I've seen a person tell another how to mount a windows os in here over 20 times.
[05:56] <fanch59> orbin: ok, thanks for having attempting at helping me
[05:57] <fanch59> attempted*
[05:57] <orbin> Neillithan: sorry you feel that way.
[05:57] <mariah>  I'm debugging a problem I've had with my Sony Laptop and the generic kernel. The machine runs really slow just after finishing initrd.
[05:57] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, yes samba installed on both laptops
[05:57] <Neillithan> orbin. yeah, this tutorial is not what i need.
[05:57] <mariah>  Anyone familiar with the kernel that can help?
[05:57] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, and I have file and printer sharing enabled on the tower
[05:57] <brandon__> I'm trying to figure out the best way to get a unicode font in my Hoary system
[05:57] <orbin> Neillithan: what exactly is puzzling about it?
[05:57] <LaNCeloT_RW> hi dudes, I need to start firestarter with the Gnome startup, but I should be root to start Firestarter... how do I start it?
[05:58] <fanch59> heu, admins ? i've received a weird PM, maybe you'd be interested
[05:58] <Neillithan> orbin. everything!  every step seemingly IS NOT the step for me!
[05:58] <brandon__> Where does this Times font come from anyway?
[05:58] <sysrage> from the new romans
[05:58] <PriceChild> fanch59, hello there can i help?
[05:59] <orbin> Neillithan: you don't need to follow all the steps.  there's only one section you need to focus on.
[05:59] <brandon__> but seriously.. I've never been that happy with X's font management..
[05:59] <Paddy_EIRE> hello kevin
[05:59] <Neillithan> orbin, which apparently is NO section!
[05:59] <brandon__> I see a Times font in my application font lists but I don't know where it is on disk
[05:59] <fanch59> PriceChild:  maybe... i'll pm you what i've received, and you'll see if it's important or not !
[05:59] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, kevin is on the other laptop
[06:00] <brandon__> like if I wanted to replace a .ttf with my windowsxp's times font, which has an okay unicode charset included
[06:00] <orbin> Neillithan: there's 3 paragraphs under the heading "Configuring Devices"
[06:00] <orbin> Neillithan: that was what i was referring to
[06:00] <Neillithan> orbin, yes and all 3 paragraphs do not apply to me what-so-ever
[06:00] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: ok ... I don't see how taht relates to whether samba is installed on the other laptop or not
[06:01] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, yes it is
[06:01] <lethu> brandon__, look here --> /usr/share/fonts/
[06:01] <Pupeno> Hello.
[06:01] <Luxurious> I want to give a user full access to a folder owned by group and user root, how do I do that?
[06:01] <Pupeno> Is it possible to check that two files refeer to the same data (that is, they are hard links)?
[06:01] <mariah> Anyone here familiar with initrd.img?
[06:01] <fanch59> ok.. if anybody else want to try to help me with my wireless problem, i promise i'll be gratefull ;)
[06:01] <lethu> brandon__, if that doesn't help try locate Times in terminal
[06:02] <mariah> fanch59: what is the problem
[06:02] <Pupeno> Luxurious: chmod g+rwX folder; and ensure that the user is a member of that group.
[06:02] <brandon__> lethu, I did locate.. nothin' ..  but it might be called "ti" or something
[06:02] <mariah> fanch59: what is the problem
[06:02] <fanch59> mariah: i'm trying to connect to a wireless network with a wpa key via a usb wireless adapter
[06:03] <fanch59> mariah: and i simply can't !
[06:03] <orbin> Neillithan: how do you figure?  when you left-click on the applet, do you see a wireless network?  no.  did you see one with the iwlist scan command? yes.  the steps attempt to enable the applet to use your wireless interface - which atm, it's not doing.
[06:03] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: can you see it through the Places -> Network ?
[06:03] <lethu> brandon__, that's possible yup
[06:03] <mariah> does it work without wep?
[06:03] <mariah> fanch59: does it work without wep?
[06:03] <Neillithan> orbin, The easiest way to do this is by going to System blah blah blah.
[06:04] <Neillithan> orbin, there is nothing to untick
[06:04] <Neillithan> orbin, therefore, this step does not apply to me!
[06:04] <brandon__> lethu, I just copied my XP fonts into a new dir here..
[06:04] <hendrixski> If I have an existing chroot that wasn't created with pbuilder, can I login to it with pbuilder?
[06:04] <brandon__> now let's see.. how to reload fonts
[06:04] <Neillithan> orbin, it says beneath "or the harder way" but it does not say "if the above step fails"
[06:04] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, no I cannot
[06:04] <Neillithan> orbin, which means it is not required
[06:05] <zabin> Hey i have a question. I have Three harddrives in my computer one for windows and the other two i want to use for ubuntu. I want to put on home partition on its own hard drive but when ever i got to do that it gives me an error and says Can't have the end before the start!. Does anyone know how to fix that?
[06:05] <Neillithan> orbin, which also means, this entire tutorial does not apply to me!
[06:05] <fanch59> mariah: i can conect to wep networks, but not to wpa ones.....
[06:05] <hendrixski> all the documentation for pbuilder I'm reading is confusing, including the man file
[06:05] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, although I can see my laptop through windows on the tower
[06:05] <lethu> brandon__, fc-cache
[06:05] <brandon__> ugh.. I have to make this hints file?  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=20976
[06:06] <fanch59> mariah:  the problem is that my landlords network is wpa protected... and I can't selectt wpa from network manager when i try to configure the network manually
[06:06] <orbin> Neillithan: so all connections, when you click on propertiesd have "enable this connection" unchecked?
[06:06] <hendrixski> I know pbuilder creates a chroot environment, and doesn't save any changes when it logs in... but I dunno if it needs to be a chroot created by pbuilder... and how to work it :-(
[06:06] <Neillithan> orbin, yes sir.
[06:06] <orbin> Neillithan: right-click on the applet, do you see enable wireless?
[06:06] <brandon__> fc-cache seems to have gotten it.. I don't know what this .hints file is they're talking about
[06:06] <senniha> does anyone have an hp dv6000z
[06:07] <Neillithan> no, i see "enable networking"
[06:07] <cbs> whats the best winamp style media player for ubuntu?
[06:07] <mariah> fanch59: I admit I have never used wpa but the first step was to verify the nework worked at all.
[06:07] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: and you laptop is in linux?
[06:07] <Luxurious> Pupeno: Is there a way to give access to the folder without using chmod?
[06:07] <hendrixski> I gather nobody knows how to operate pbuilder?
[06:07] <sldkfj> cbs, xmms
[06:07] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, gwashburn yes
[06:07] <mariah> fanch59: lemme just have a quick look around on my pc
[06:07] <Luxurious> This is sort of a delicate folder.
[06:07] <fanch59> mariah: the network work ! my landlord uses it
[06:07] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: I missed the model of WiFi card you're having problems with?
[06:07] <brandon__> damn.. it's still not working :(
[06:07] <mariah> fanch59: gnome or kde?
[06:08] <Neillithan> orbin, okay the only thing i see when i right click a connection and hit properties is "enable romaing"
[06:08] <brandon__> swriter and scalc (openoffice) aren't showing the font data..
[06:08] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: i use a belking usb wifi mimo card
[06:08] <fanch59> mariah: gnome
[06:08] <lethu> brandon__, : s
[06:08] <Neillithan> orbin, i see "wireless connection" "wired connection" and  "modem connection"
[06:08] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: what chipset or PCI ID does it have?
[06:08] <Neillithan> orbin, that is ALL.
[06:08] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: on the linux console from the tower try: telnet <ip of laptop> 139
[06:08] <ErichOwens85> Hello, I have a question.  My sound on Feisty Fawn stutters often, and forces the program running it randomly to crash and hang.
[06:08] <cbs> whats the hotkey to bring up a terminal window in feisty?
[06:09] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: can't remember right now... is there a way to find out ?
[06:09] <orbin> Neillithan: where?  in the sys > admin > network dialog?
[06:09] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, sorry, the tower is running xp
[06:09] <Neillithan> orbin, YES.
[06:09] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: try "sudo lsusb" that should help
[06:09] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, although its a dual boot with opensuse
[06:09] <neverblue> ijust installed postgreSQL, is there a 'phpmyadmin'-like app that I can use for psql? if so, why does it not show up in my webserver root? (aka localhost)

[06:10] <zabin> Hey i have a question. I have Three harddrives in my computer one for windows and the other two i want to use for ubuntu. I want to put on home partition on its own hard drive but when ever i got to do that it gives me an error and says Can't have the end before the start!. Does anyone know how to fix that?
[06:10] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: then maybe its a suse issue, since windows can see the laptop, but not the suse
[06:10] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: i have this : ID 050d:905b Belkin Components
[06:10] <lethu> brandon__, running fc-cache both as root and user might help
[06:10] <margorach> Has anyone had problems with devices in /dev having incorrect permissions whenever the system is rebooted?

[06:11] <Stratos> Hello, anyone here that is using Greek on his ubuntu?
[06:11] <mariah> fanch59: dunno if this will help but a good first step.
[06:11] <neverblue> scoobydoo28139, are you aware that items that start with a # (hash) represent channels on IRC?
[06:12] <fanch59> mariah: thanks, ill have a look
[06:12] <brandon__> there it goes.. Mangal handles it
[06:12] <neverblue> and do enter that channel, you usually do --> /join #channel
[06:12] <scoobydoo28139> not till you just told me:)
[06:12] <neverblue> s/do/to/
[06:12] <brandon__> lethu, did it as root .. works great.  I needed to install mangal.ttf for this hindi text
[06:12] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, I would rather not use suse anyway, just keep the tower xp
[06:12] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: Try reading this: http://patrikhermansson.se.scorpionshops.com/?q=node/85
[06:12] <brandon__> I'm not sure why yet.. perhaps the unicode times/arial don't have these particular characters

[06:13] <HoocH_LAP> Is there directX for linux ?
[06:13] <HoocH_LAP> :P eheh
[06:13] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: Thats an article by someone that has your card working with WPA on Linux
[06:13] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: make sure they have the same workgroup
[06:13] <mariah> HoocH_LAP: Yes it's called WINE
[06:13] <cbs> has anyone ported milkdrop to linux yet?
[06:13] <brandon__> they show in windows in the browser too.. but not under linux..
[06:13] <Paddy_EIRE> gwashburn, how to determine what the windows workgroup name is and each of the laptops.... or better yet what info do I need
[06:14] <margorach> void^: lots of devices with 660, when they should be 664 or 666.
[06:14] <brandon__> I'll let you know if I figure anything out too..
[06:14] <HoocH_LAP> mariah: I have that.. tried to run a game with wine and it didn't find directx :(
[06:14] <brandon__> if you're interested
[06:14] <gwashburn> Paddy_EIRE: sorry, I have to leave for a bit
[06:14] <margorach> void^: eg. /dev/random & /dev/null both start at 660
[06:14] <mariah> HoocH_LAP: What game?
[06:14] <shwag> why do flash videos continually crash firefox or epiphany ?
[06:14] <HoocH_LAP> mariah: Eve-Online.. It says it can't find D3DX
[06:15] <margorach> void^: which prevents standard users from flushing stuff to /dev/null or using /dev/random (or /dev/urandom) to seed openssl and create ssh keys.
[06:15] <mariah> shwag: Try installing Flash player nonfree
[06:15] <kdub432_> shwag, it doesnt do that for me... make sure you're using the latest binary
[06:16] <void^> margorach: strange, what does 'grep null /etc/udev/rules.d/40-permissions.rules' say?
[06:16] <Neillithan> orbin, I just wanted to let you know that you were not very helpful.
[06:16] <shwag> kdub432_: i am using latest binary. only difference is...i let firefox install flash itself from the web this time, rather then using apt-get to install it.
[06:16] <brandon__> wow.. i could swear this hindi page worked yesterday..
[06:16] <margorach> void^: KERNEL=="null",                         MODE="0666"
[06:16] <frojnd> is there any package that comes with apt, and support USB 2.0 ?
[06:16] <shwag> mariah: what good would nonfree do me. doesn't that not even have sound ?
[06:16] <orbin> Neillithan: i'm not a guru
[06:16] <shwag> mariah: err,...i am on nonfree.
[06:17] <lethu> brandon__, k
[06:17] <Neillithan> orbin, well you assumed i had connections. which i have none.
[06:17] <brandon__> (I have to work with a bunch of translations, by the way).
[06:17] <Neillithan> orbin, none to disable, none to enable. none is pretty impossible to work with
[06:17] <napster_> hello
[06:17] <mariah> shwag: I have had the exact same problem. Try uninstall and resinstall without firefox open.
[06:17] <lethu> brandon__, I see
[06:17] <mariah> HoocH_LAP: http://myeve.eve-online.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=420926&page=3
[06:17] <brandon__> some languages/people still like to use standard low character sets, but using fonts which different shapes on it
[06:17] <napster_> am i alone here
[06:17] <BigToe> Is there a way to send a message to all people currently logged in on a PC?
[06:17] <afonit> is there a linux program similar to Snagit for Windows?
[06:17] <shwag> mariah: how do I uninstall? i just installed it via the firefox plugin popup
[06:18] <mariah> HoocH_LAP: Info about EVE looks like it covers Ubuntu
[06:18] <BigToe> or all people on a network?
[06:18] <brandon__> ie. it looks like plain text, not specially encoded, but the font shows some special foreign character for, say, a semi-colon
[06:18] <void^> margorach: it ought to be 666 then, unless something chmods it explicitely or you aren't even using udev
[06:18] <orbin> Neillithan: i was referring to a wiki page in an attempt to help.  you've already stated several times how unhelpful i've been.  i'll butt out now.
[06:18] <sico> can anyone recommend a good client (or plugin for gaim) for secure instant messaging in ubuntu?
[06:18] <Neillithan> orbin, the wiki page needs HELP and LOTS of it.
[06:18] <brandon__> it might look something like this:  sal] m lethu; b&zurn[a
[06:18] <|ericsson|> Having problems with Clam, take a look @ http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20820/
[06:18] <mariah> shwag: Ahh... same as me. Installs in wrong place for ubuntu. Install using apt-get
[06:18] <margorach> void^: yeah I know, it's a fiesty install, I've got about 4 other edgy installs that work fine.
[06:18] <HoocH_LAP> mariah: k, ty.. I'll read it :)
[06:19] <BigToe> or all people on a network?
[06:19] <Neillithan> orbin, whoever wrote it needs to clarify exactly what the steps pertain to, how they will help... why they are necessary.
[06:19] <brandon__> someone called it a hack, but I think it's just the only way it used to be able to be done.
[06:19] <BigToe> Is there a way to send a message to all people currently on a network?
[06:19] <margorach> void^: If I change the permissions it's fine, but when I reboot they're back where they were.
[06:19] <shwag> mariah: it works though. how do I delete it?
[06:20] <lethu> brandon__, see
[06:20] <brandon__> sico, using jabber protocol/clients and encryption maybe?
[06:20] <mariah> shwag: Sorry not sure.
[06:20] <zabin> hello does anyone know how to but the /home dir on its own partition?
[06:20] <fanch59> mariah: i'm back... i've modified (for the 100th time) the indicated files, and it's still the same message
[06:20] <C_Kode> zabin: df -h
[06:20] <margorach> zabin: do you know how to partition a drive?
[06:20] <zabin> i am running the live cd right now
[06:21] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: Did you see my link to someone else who has done it with that adapter and linux and WPA?
[06:21] <mariah> fanch59: So you don't even get an option for wpa you said?
[06:21] <zyclop> greetings, Audacity demands the library named "lame_enc.dll". Where can I find it?
[06:21] <zabin> I have Three harddrives in my computer one for windows and the other two i want to use for ubuntu. I want to put on home partition on its own hard drive but when ever i got to do that it gives me an error and says Can't have the end before the start!. Does anyone know how to fix that?
[06:21] <void^> margorach: what happens to those permissions when you run 'sudo udevtrigger'?
[06:21] <kornerr> hi
[06:21] <fanch59> mariah: when i try to connect it says that "teh wireless network i'm trying to connect to requires security features which are not supported by my hardware"
[06:21] <sico> brandon__, through gaim? or another client?  i'm thinking about trying scatterchat
[06:21] <kornerr> anyone can tell me why ubuntu 7 installer is so SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW?
[06:21] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: "Belkin Wireless G+ MIMO USB Adapter in Linux" http://patrikhermansson.se.scorpionshops.com/?q=node/85
[06:21] <margorach> remain when I left them at.
[06:22] <kornerr> it takes forever to install
[06:22] <margorach> void^: remain what I left them at.
[06:22] <fanch59> thank you IntuitiveNipple
[06:22] <IntuitiveNipple> That person has WPA working
[06:22] <void^> margorach: even if you set them to something else first?
[06:22] <margorach> zabin: have you deleted the partitions that were on the drive (eg. do you want to use the whole drive for the home folder).
[06:22] <kermitus> lol thats funny.. I recently got my Belkin wireless g pcmcia card to work on my ubutu laptop, and it works rather nicely I must say...
[06:23] <zabin> C_Kode do you know what "Can't have the end before the start!" means?
[06:23] <brandon__> sico, gaim has an encryption plugin
[06:23] <kermitus> *Ubuntu
[06:23] <brandon__> sico, I don't know about the others.. I never use it anyway
[06:23] <margorach> void^: they remain what *I* set them to, not what they were on boot.
[06:23] <zabin> yes
[06:23] <brandon__> (I use gaim, but not the encryption)
[06:23] <sico> brandon__, what is it called? is that the OTR plugin you're referring to?
[06:23] <zabin> i have del both hard drives
[06:23] <zabin> When i got to make a swap it lets me
[06:23] <brandon__> no.. it's pretty clearly called encryption I think
[06:23] <mariah> Anyone familiar with ubuntu boot process that can help with a problem of the pc running slow right after finishing initrd.init
[06:23] <brandon__> maybe ssl but I don't think so
[06:24] <margorach> zabin: how much have you used for swap, and how big is the drive?
[06:24] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: i don't really understand what he says.....
[06:24] <zabin> for mount point i create a partition for "/" and one for "/home" correct?
[06:24] <margorach> zabin: yeah.
[06:24] <zabin> i have a 250gb and a 400gb with 2 gigs of ram
[06:24] <void^> margorach: that certainly sounds like udev is utterly broken.
[06:24] <zabin> i am using the 400 gb on for my home dir
[06:24] <margorach> void^: I was afraid that was going to be the answer.
[06:24] <void^> margorach: do you have a tmpfs mounted on /dev?
[06:24] <zabin> i am making the swap 2100 mb
[06:24] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: i've used linux for roughly a week, so when i read things like "compile driver", the first thing that comes to my mind is "bless you"
[06:24] <phal__> hix how can i make my refresh rate 85? i only have 60 and 87 options?
[06:25] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: In summary: download the Ralink drivers, patch the source code, compile and build the kernel module for your kernel version, install, then configure
[06:25] <dyrne> phal__: /msg ubotu fixres
[06:25] <|chiz|> zabin: thats all good, you just need the / and /boot partitions too right
[06:25] <nemo_work> hey. my mom's ubuntu laptop just recently lost sound in linux. works in windows. after trying everything I could think of, still no sound. looking for more ideas.  all channels unmuted and raised, ogg123 reports no errors playing to -d alsa09 or -d esd

[06:25] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: thank you but i still don't know how to do that....
[06:25] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: Yes, it can be a steep learning curve, but right now thats your only option from what I can tell.
[06:25] <margorach> void^: udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755)
[06:25] <zabin> ok so i made my swap partition
[06:26] <sico> brandon__,  thank you.
[06:26] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: you're probably right, since i've tryed every single option i could find before coming here
[06:26] <zabin> then i click on new then i got let the drive use the rest of the space and set the mount point to / and i get an error message

[06:26] <Paddy_EIRE> could someone help me network 2 laptops and a winxp tower
[06:26] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: do i need to uninstall ndiswrapper before i do that ?

[06:26] <dredhammer> does anyone know how to enable ctrl+alt+del to bring up the system monitor when compiz is enabled?
[06:27] <zabin> should all of the partitions be primary or do i have to make any of them logical?
[06:27] <fanch59> mariah: so what would you suggest instead ?
[06:27] <mariah> fanch59: sry appologies it does say.
[06:27] <papa> s
[06:27] <DevilChaos> hi just a quick question here what is the current best version of ubuntu at the moment please?
[06:27] <fanch59> mariah: what does sry mean ?
[06:27] <margorach> zabin: only 2-3 can be primary.
[06:27] <mariah> fanch59: sorry
[06:28] <Psoulocybe> sudo aptitude -f install was the command... any way to reverse it?
[06:28] <zabin> what do you mean?
[06:28] <zabin> mangorch: what do you mean?
[06:28] <fanch59> oups...sorry, i'm slow with english at times....
[06:28] <jhaig> DevilChaos: Feisty is the latest version, Dapper is the most recent "Long Term Support" version, and it is about 1 year old.
[06:28] <margorach> zabin: only set one partition as primary on each drive, set the others to logical
[06:28] <nemo_work> oh well. since it is working, guess I'll get back to work.
[06:29] <mariah> fanch59: I would just google my head off until I found the answer like a normally do. Or buy another adapter.
[06:29] <zabin> mangorch: should the swap be logical or primary?
[06:29] <|chiz|> zabin: root is the only partition that really should be primary
[06:29] <Psoulocybe> i mean i ran sudo aptitude -f install and it uninstalled a TON of packages i have installed
[06:29] <zabin> which is the mount point of just / correct?
[06:29] <irule> hi there, http://pastebin.ca/487691 someone please help me, this is a routing error
[06:30] <mariah> fanch59: do you dual boot into window$?
[06:30] <fanch59> mariah: ok....but i've already spent hours on google and ubuntu forums, then doing things i don't understand
[06:30] <fanch59> dor no result
[06:30] <|chiz|> zabin: you can only put 4 primary partitions on a drive and if you want logical partitions they are put into a extended partition that counts as one of the 4
[06:30] <Samus_Aran> does anyone have any idea what program could be responsible for an ethernet interface that keeps resetting itself to no IP address every 3-5 seconds ?  it is correctly set up so ifup eth1 sets it to the internal address, but then it is just erased
[06:30] <zabin> i keep getting this error message "Can't have the end before the start!"
[06:30] <|chiz|> zabin: the mount point of / is root yes
[06:31] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: Check out this open-source project,it might help http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page
[06:31] <zabin> whenever i try to mount "/" or /home i get this error message "Can't have the end before the start!"
[06:31] <fanch59> mariah: nope, got a big crash with windows, and since i'm an expat i didn't have my win cd...on only had a ubuntu live cd that i downloaded 3 days before out of mere curiosity
[06:31] <DevilChaos> jhaig can you point me to the download iso dvd please?
[06:31] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: thank you
[06:31] <Nitro> How do I blacklist the bcm drivers right after installing ubuntu?
[06:32] <mariah> fanch59: I can point you in a direction. Learn iwconfig and ifconfig. Figure it out at a comand line level.
[06:32] <Nitro> *broadcom drivers
[06:32] <wauwau> how can i backup/restore my thunderbird-email-data ?
[06:32] <mariah> fanch59: dont give up on ubuntu. Once you struggle through it you will never go back to windows.
[06:32] <|chiz|> zabin: I haven't seen that before, did you try googling it?
[06:32] <Paddy_EIRE> can anyone help me network 2 laptops (linux) and a tower (winxp)
[06:33] <jhaig> DevilChaos: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[06:33] <mariah> fanch59: I use kubuntu with kde so it's more difficult for me to help you plus I don't use wpa
[06:33] <vox754> !blacklist
[06:33] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[06:33] <DevilChaos> cheers
[06:33] <zabin> i have a tutorial on how to do this "http://www.cs.cornell.edu/~djm/ubuntu/" but this problem isnt covered

[06:34] <margorach> void^: and someone just starting using the server, damn. Thanks for your help.
[06:34] <|chiz|> phal__: print screen button
[06:35] <mon^rch> phal__: hit printscreen and paste the output into gimp...
[06:35] <phal__> doesnt work
[06:35] <phal__> no function
[06:35] <zabin> |chiz| : i googled it, i think its a bug with ubuntu 7.04 because someone else had the same problem and thats what they were saying
[06:35] <|chiz|> zabin: lovely
[06:36] <zabin> |chiz| i know lol, i think i should maybe try 6.10 and fix this problem and then perhaps upgrade
[06:36] <Milage> that's strange
[06:36] <mariah> fanch59: Not to start a flame war but the truth is when you start using windows it's no different you just have more people to help you get through the learning curve. I've had ubuntu for about 2months and have fixed nearly EVERY problem that in Windows I would have just learned to live with.
[06:36] <Milage> I suddenly lost my sound in feisty
[06:36] <fruitbag> Guys...
[06:36] <|chiz|> zabin: upgrades are not always the best thing
[06:36] <shwag> mariah: I deleted the one in .mozilla  and installed nonfree via apt-get .. crashes seem to be gone.
[06:36] <Dr_willis> mariah,  linux is fixable.. windows isent. :)
[06:36] <shwag> mariah: you were right.  does the bug team know about this?
[06:36] <fruitbag> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStick <-- does this installation doc also apply to Ubuntu 7.04?
[06:36] <Milage> I think windows is fixable enough <.<
[06:37] <|chiz|> zabin: but I really don't have anymore advise
[06:37] <Samus_Aran> zabin: how could you be trying to mount "/" ?  there's no /sbin/mount if you have no / mounted
[06:37] <mariah>  gonna go eat people. brb after
[06:37] <fruitbag> In it, it shows that it describes installation of Ubuntu 6.06 LTS.
[06:37] <fruitbag> ...but I'm not sure.
[06:37] <fruitbag> Does it apply to all versions for installing from a USB stic?
[06:37] <letterman> I'm trying to migrate from windows, and I get the following dmsg when trying to load a SATA NTFS RAID: http://pastebin.ca/487717
[06:37] <crossbar> heh my windows has never really worked as well as linux
[06:37] <Samus_Aran> Nitro: /etc/modprobe.d/ has blacklisting I think
[06:38] <crossbar> my copy from cd or sandisk is always faster
[06:38] <crossbar> my internet connect is usually faster
[06:38] <fanch59> ok, i'll try all this....thank you for your help folks, take care
[06:38] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: good luck
[06:38] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: ty
[06:38] <fruitbag> So, any views here?
[06:39] <letterman> can anyone help me sort it out?
[06:39] <letterman> can anyone help me with that?
[06:39] <letterman> oops
[06:39] <kx> Hi , Is there a theme manager for compiz ??
[06:39] <mskadu> hello all
[06:39] <fruitbag> Does the Ubuntu USB stick installation manual apply to all versions?
[06:39] <mskadu> where is global proxy info saved ?
[06:39] <zabin> Samus_Aran: for mount point i type in "/"? is that not correct?
[06:39] <fruitbag> ...or just 6.06 LTS?
[06:39] <crossbar> its probably the same fruitbag
[06:39] <crossbar> did u try it
[06:39] <retaliator> is there something like deamon tools for ubuntu?
[06:40] <kx> theme manager for compiz ??? is there one like emerald ??
[06:40] <crossbar> good question.
[06:40] <mskadu> does anyone know where the global proxy info is stored?
[06:40] <|chiz|> retaliator: mount
[06:40] <mskadu> retaliator:  there's a thread on ubuntu forums for this
[06:40] <fruitbag> crossbar: not yet...
[06:40] <fruitbag> The installation of version 7.04 isn't finished yet.
[06:40] <Dr_willis> retaliator,  depends on what you are needing it to do. You can easially mount .iso files
[06:41] <Samus_Aran> zabin: what I mean is that your "/" has to be mounted, it is mounted by the Linux kernel before the operating system (Ubuntu) ever loads
[06:41] <fruitbag> crocd: if it's teh same, then why does it say it's for installing 'Ubuntu (Drapper Drake, 6.06 LTS)' ?
[06:41] <Samus_Aran> retaliator: if you're trying to mount a filesystem in a file, such as foo.iso, then you can use: mount -o ro,loop foo.iso /mnt/blah
[06:42] <Milage> Hey guys
[06:42] <zabin> Samus_Aran: im running off the live cd and i am trying to install it
[06:42] <Milage> My sound suddenly died here
[06:42] <Samus_Aran> retaliator: otherwise you'll need a kernel module if it is a raw CD image (such as a .bin/.cue pair), which allows it to pretend to be a physical CD drive device.  I think it's called Virtual CD
[06:42] <Milage> No idea why
[06:42] <orian> Ubuntu 7.4 comes with evolution 2.6. I want to update evolution to 2.8. How can I do this? Does anyone know of a third party repository for this?
[06:42] <Milage> What can I do to check what went wrong?
[06:42] <Milage> Using feisty
[06:43] <Neil3> orian, 7.04 comes with 2.10
[06:43] <mskadu> retaliator:  try this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=420089
[06:43] <retaliator> thx alot all of you
[06:43] <greg_g> so, I am in need of building a new computer, and it has been 4 years since my last build, what are some good suggestions on motherboards and video cards (or onboard video in the case of the intel 965 chipset, does it really behave well with linux?)
[06:43] <Samus_Aran> zabin: so what are you typing in to get the error message you pasted ?
[06:43] <scale3> hi... i'm having the (apparently common) "can't access tty job control turned off" problem
[06:43] <Milage> I'm not getting audio in any of my applications
[06:43] <amitksaha> #umit
[06:44] <marc_> Milage, did you change anything before it stopped working?
[06:44] <zabin> i click on new partition then. i type in mount point to be / and then i get the error message
[06:44] <Milage> Not a thing
[06:44] <orian> Neil3, I sorry had the wrong numbers but there is a latter version than 2.10
[06:44] <Neil3> ooh
[06:44] <Neil3> must be very new
[06:44] <Milage> i first noticed i wouldn't get sound on the youtube videos
[06:45] <Samus_Aran> greg_g: in terms of cost vs. performance, I recommend AMD64 X2 dual-core processors over Intel.  AMD has always had perfect Linux kernel support, before their CPUs are even released.
[06:45] <Milage> then I tried playing something in amarok, but it said something about the audio device being busy
[06:45] <Milage> i closed amarok, but now it won't even start
[06:45] <Neil3> orian, http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution/download.shtml says the latest stable release is 2.10
[06:45] <dredhammer> does anyone know how to enable ctrl+alt+del to bring up the system monitor when compiz is enabled?
[06:45] <marc_> what if you try to start amarok from the command line?
[06:45] <marc_> does it give errors?
[06:46] <Samus_Aran> Milage: try this command from a console to see if you can figure out what is using your soundcard: fuser /dev/dsp
[06:46] <Milage> No, it just stops at the splash screen
[06:46] <orian> 2.11.2 your right it is unstable sorry
[06:46] <scale3> if i had a working install of feisty on my hd and nowi t won't boot... but it will boot from the feisty install/live cd... how do i reinstall the original (un-updated) feisty from the cd without wiping my current setup?
[06:46] <mariah> %c4 back
[06:46] <greg_g> Samus_Aran> what about motherboard support?
[06:46] <mariah> opps
[06:46] <mariah>  back
[06:46] <greg_g> Samus_Aran> and I thought the intel 965 chipset was open source?
[06:46] <irule> hi there, http://pastebin.ca/487691 someone please help me, this is a routing error
[06:47] <LuisGMarine_> Can anyone here help me install cedega on Ubuntu 64-bit?
[06:47] <mariah> Anyone familiar with ubuntu boot process that can help with a problem of the pc running slow right after finishing initrd.init
[06:47] <PriceChild> LuisGMarine_, you purchased cedega *and* support for it. Ask transgaming :)
[06:47] <clever> 0 each with taxes
[06:47] <Milage> Samus_Aran: That command returns nothing
[06:47] <LuisGMarine_> PriceChild: they are a bunch of tards, they don't help me at all
[06:47] <Samus_Aran> greg_g: motherboards are a mixed bag both for intel and amd, there are so many different chipsets.  there's a web page that lists every known motherboard chipset, and which ones are supported partially/fully by the Linux kernel.  that's what I used when choosing my last mobo
[06:48] <gudinio> hi, installation on piv/IDE hdb -failed with kernel panic
[06:48] <gudinio> cannot mount vfs
[06:48] <Samus_Aran> greg_g: the mobo I almost bought before looking at that page had only partial chipset support, so it is certainly worth looking at
[06:48] <PriceChild> LuisGMarine_, installing should just be a matter of dpkg -i name_of.deb
[06:48] <scale3> test, test, can anyone read this?
[06:48] <PriceChild> scale3, yes
[06:48] <greg_g> Samus> hrmmmm  do you remember that site??  I don't think I have found it yet (I have been trying to do my own research, for about a week now off and on, which is why I thought the 965 was a good choice)
[06:49] <Samus_Aran> greg_g: one of the most common issues is not having full IDE or SATA support, which can be a pain in the ass if your fast new hard drive is going very slow or sometimes disconnects
[06:49] <scale3> good.
[06:49] <majd> hey, if i have a mac hooked up to an ubuntu laptop through firewire, can i mount the mac on my ubuntu?
[06:49] <Milage> Samus_Aran: I think i figured it out
[06:49] <Samus_Aran> greg_g: I don't know the particular chipset you mentioned, lemme see if I can find the name of the site
[06:49] <Milage> After i closed Azureus, I got my sound back
[06:49] <greg_g> Samus> yeah, or you can't install off of your IDE cd drive (was a problem with the 965 at first until the .20 kernel)
[06:49] <scale3> how do i reinstall feisty without wiping out everything that's currently on my hd or re-partitioningr o anything?
[06:49] <greg_g> Samus> Thanks a lot for you help
[06:49] <Milage> That's strange though, why would a bit torrent client stop the sound from working?
[06:49] <Gasten> w00t! http://www.linuxworld.com/newsletters/linux/2007/0507linux2.html
[06:50] <scale3> on the install program from the feisty cd, it asks me if i want to repartition the HD. is there a way to install feisty keeping my previous partitions?
[06:50] <Samus_Aran> greg_g: will you be using SATA hard drives or IDE ones ?
[06:51] <zabin> Hey i got it. I used gparted to set up the partitions and then it worked. I guess we will find out if this still boots after the install lol
[06:51] <Samus_Aran> greg_g: I think it was the SATA drive support that was such a mixed bag when I was last shopping for a mobo
[06:51] <IntuitiveNipple> scale3: Yes, choose to Manually partition the disk
[06:51] <Samus_Aran> zabin: well good luck
[06:51] <majd> so i guess i'm just asking if there's a way to mount a firewire drive
[06:51] <Gasten> japan goes linux: http://www.linuxworld.com/newsletters/linux/2007/0507linux2.html
[06:51] <gudinio> tried to install 7.04 - cannot boot into it - failed with  kernel panic
[06:51] <zabin> Smaus_aran: thanks for the help
[06:51] <greg_g> Samus> well, I have a 320 gig IDE HD and an old dvd-rw and dvd reader, but I am willing to buy a new harddrive (SATA or whatever) and new dvd burner
[06:51] <Bulltitan> hi to install fluxbox in xubuntu should i use, apt-get, aptitude or synaptic?
[06:51] <Gorgapor> when i lock my screen, and press "switch user" my computer crashes. I can't access alternate consoles or ctrl-alt-backspace. how do i fix this?
[06:52] <kdub432_> majd, i'm sure there is, but i dont know how to... haha
[06:52] <majd> kdub432_, lol
[06:52] <greg_g> Samus> in fact I would prefer a new harddrive to do the system install, and the 320 for media etc... getting a new optical drive if it is needed
[06:52] <Samus_Aran> Gorgapor: are you using the nVIDIA closed-source driver ?
[06:52] <Gorgapor> Samus_Aran, no, ATI
[06:52] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: hi, it's me again... i was wondering if you could help me by telling me precisely what i need to type to install this driver... i'm affraid of doing bad things...
[06:52] <Gorgapor> Samus_Aran, is there a log file i should check maybe?
[06:53] <Bulltitan> is it the same thing if i use apt-get or aptitude i mean
[06:53] <Samus_Aran> Gorgapor: start with the X log file, it will probably be named something like /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old
[06:53] <Gorgapor> ok, thx
[06:53] <Samus_Aran> Gorgapor: that is, if your X reloads on bootup (it will create a new log file then)
[06:54] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: I don't think it'd be easy to do. Building a module involves so many potential issues, confusion would be almost certain. You really need someone either there with the PC, or operating it remotely
[06:54] <Jonny0stars> hello
[06:54] <Samus_Aran> Gorgapor: just look through the last lines of those log files, if nothing shows up in there, try /var/log/messages
[06:54] <MirandaFR-Invite> http://chat-clubstation.com

[06:55] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: hwo can i manage to have it done remotely ?
[06:55] <Pollywog> here is a dumb question but it's not my first and probably won't be my last... is there some sort of Docbook reader?
[06:55] <Samus_Aran> Gorgapor: and if that still doesn't work, practice the sys-req keys, as you may at least be able to sync the hard drive next time it crashes, so that perhaps something will show up in the logs
[06:55] <Bulltitan> any ideas
[06:55] <Gorgapor> ok
[06:55] <Jonny0stars> he says it doesnt ask him for a password
[06:55] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: If the PC is connected to the Internet, you could enable a remote user to connect using SSH shell or VNC remote desktop
[06:55] <scale3> intuitivenipple: in the manual partitioning option, i have device /dev/hda. under that is /dev/hda1 mounted at /media/hda1, and /dev/hda5, the swap.
[06:55] <Samus_Aran> Pollywog: I don't know what docbook is, but apt-cache search docbook shows a couple hundred results, so my guess is "yes" =)
[06:56] <Samus_Aran> Pollywog: just do a search for docbook in Synaptic
[06:56] <Pollywog> I did that
[06:56] <Jonny0stars> any one know why he cant sudo echo "blah" >> /etc/somefile
[06:56] <Pollywog> thanks
[06:56] <scale3> how do i get the installer to install to /dev/hda1 without reformatting the partition?
[06:56] <nickrud> Pollywog, the gnome help browser is a docbook reader, it goes by yel
[06:56] <IntuitiveNipple> scale3: You'll need to adjust those to fit with your particular disk setup
[06:56] <nickrud> er, yelp
[06:56] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple:  would you do this for me ? (please !)
[06:56] <karman12> may
[06:56] <PriceChild> scale3, you "have" to format whatever you isntall / to
[06:56] <Pollywog> nickrud: thanks I did not remember that
[06:56] <IntuitiveNipple> Jonny0stars: Does he have permission to write to /etc/ ?
[06:57] <Jonny0stars> well thats why i told him to type sudo first
[06:57] <Pollywog> doesn't kde have one as well?
[06:57] <Samus_Aran> Jonny0stars: sudo blah > foo will be trying to append the file as the regular user, not as root
[06:57] <nickrud> not sure, I don't use kde much except for amarok
[06:57] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: It might take hours... you need some professional support from someone who has experience of that WiFi hardware, really
[06:57] <Jonny0stars> ah i see
[06:57] <Pollywog> nickrud: ty
[06:57] <Samus_Aran> Jonny0stars: the command is "sudo blah" and the append is "> foo".  if you want to do it with append, put it in a command that will be run as root
[06:57] <Samus_Aran> Jonny0stars: e.g. sudo sh -c 'command > foo'
[06:58] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: so in a word, i'm fu@!/   ?
[06:58] <Jonny0stars> thanks mate
[06:58] <majd> how do you mount a firewire connection?
[06:58] <Samus_Aran> Jonny0stars: that way the ">" part is also run as root
[06:58] <Samus_Aran> Jonny0stars: er, make sure to do >> not >
[06:58] <Samus_Aran> Jonny0stars: unless you want to erase the file
[06:58] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: The beauty of GNU/Linux is, you have the freedom to build it yourself, but that doesn't imply it doesn't cost :)
[06:58] <Jonny0stars> hehe ok thanks mate
[06:58] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: The cost is often the learning-curve
[06:58] <Samus_Aran> Jonny0stars: welcome
[06:59] <Molluck> Hello, can somebody please help me connect to my wireless network via router?
[06:59] <Molluck> i mean, via laptop
[06:59] <Samus_Aran> fanch59: for every hour I have put into learning GNU/Linux, I have saved a bit more than an hour in the long run, and that number continues to rise
[06:59] <KakaRoT-|> Molluck: what doesn't work?
[06:59] <mariah> shwag: glad to hear you flash problem is fixed
[07:00] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: i don't have time to learn this right now...i'm an expat, and without this wireless connection, i can't communicate with my friends and family. It's been nearly a week since i last talked to my wife
[07:00] <Samus_Aran> fanch59: thing that now seem second nature to me on a GNU/Linux system, annoy me so much that they're missing on Windows
[07:00] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: well, everything doesn't work.
[07:00] <KakaRoT-|> =)
[07:00] <c14uz> Hi to all
[07:00] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: In reality, if you read all instructions thoroughly, and use your brains, you *could* build the new driver yourself in about 30 minutes
[07:00] <c14uz> i need help
[07:00] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: I need to connect to the wireless network, i don't know how to begin.
[07:00] <c14uz> :D
[07:00] <Enverex> Does anyone here have, or have access to a Dell Inspiron 6400?
[07:00] <c14uz> Who can help me?
[07:00] <alaK> Is there a remote desktop for linux ? ( i meen server, not a client ) ?
[07:00] <Samus_Aran> fanch59: even simple things like renaming a bunch of JPEG files, or telling your music to start playing in 2 hours, needs third-party software on Windows
[07:01] <KakaRoT-|> are you using ubuntu 7.4?
[07:01] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: yes
[07:01] <Gladiator-TR> iyi akamlar
[07:01] <c14uz> I use kubuntu an i whant know how to configure my eth
[07:01] <greg_g> Samus> sorry to nag, I just haven't been able to find that site you mentioned, with the chipset support, been looking right now
[07:01] <c14uz> who can help me?
[07:01] <fanch59> IntuitiveNipple: i've never done anything similar to that before... my speciality is british contemporary literature, not computer science
[07:01] <KakaRoT-|> do you have a network applet on your gnome-pannel?
[07:01] <MFen> does anyone have pure-ftpd working in "implicit tls" mode (port 990)
[07:01] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: yes
[07:01] <nalioth> !offtopic
[07:01] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[07:01] <fanch59> i've never written a program in my whole life
[07:01] <KakaRoT-|> right-click on it?
[07:01] <void^> alaK: no, there's only X forwarding (Xdmcp), vnc and freenx
[07:01] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: The joys of open source :p
[07:02] <MFen> i have managed to get pure-ftpd to launch with -Y 2 -S ,990, but it doesn't present a tls transport, it's serving a plaintext connection
[07:02] <IntuitiveNipple> fanch59: You could spend 100 and install Windows XP
[07:02] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: it says "enable networking" it is checked.
[07:02] <mariah> fanch59: I feel your pain!
[07:02] <MFen> i think ubuntu's pure-ftpd might be broken wrt TLS
[07:02] <Samus_Aran> fanch59: GNU/Linux is no harder to learn than Windows, the only two factors that are there are: 1) if you have experience using Windows that makes it *harder* to learn GNU/Linux as you have preconceptions about how things should be done, 2) you probably can't just call up your usual techie friend for advice like you could with Windows
[07:02] <Gladiator-TR> TR 'den balanan varm ???
[07:03] <KakaRoT-|> and "enable wireless"?
[07:03] <mariah> fanch59: but of the distros of linux I have tried ubuntu is the easiest and best supported (web wise)
[07:03] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: negative
[07:03] <Samus_Aran> fanch59: never having to run Ad-Aware, a virus scanner or SpyBot Search & Destroy is quite nice as well =)
[07:03] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: can you please type my name when responding to me?
[07:03] <mariah> samus_aran: fanch59: its true. I said that earlier.
[07:04] <KakaRoT-|> iwconfig find yout wireless network adapter?
[07:04] <Samus_Aran> fanch59: and being able to update 1000+ programs in a few minutes is a dream.  there exists nothing like that for Windows.  every program has its own installer that uses an inconsistant look-and-feel with individual auto-updaters if any
[07:04] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: it shows "ieee 802.11g .... blah blah"
[07:05] <mariah> fanch59: open a terminal and type iwconfig and show us what it says.
[07:05] <alaK> void: Ok i am not following, what do you mean by forwarder ?
[07:05] <Samus_Aran> fanch59: and as was said, almost all GNU/Linux problems *do* have a solution, whereas many Windows problems are just left in the realm of "gremlins, live with it".  as times goes by, your GNU/Linux system will get *more* stable, not less stable =)

[07:06] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: by enable, do you mean place a check mark next to "wireless connection" ?
[07:06] <IntuitiveNipple> hammedhaaret: check out the "loop2 file system, you can mount CD images with that
[07:06] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret: is it an ISO9660 file (.iso) or a raw CD image (.bin/.cue)?
[07:06] <mc44> !iso | hammedhaaret
[07:06] <ubotu> hammedhaaret: To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[07:06] <scale3> how do i boot from the live cd into my old file system?
[07:07] <IntuitiveNipple> hammedhaaret: correction: "loop" file system!
[07:07] <mariah> Anyone familiar with ubuntu boot process that can help with a problem of the pc running slow right after finishing initrd.init
[07:07] <KakaRoT-|> Molluck: yes
[07:07] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: there is a check mark next to wireless connection already
[07:07] <KakaRoT-|> k
[07:07] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: can you define "slow"? is it waiting for something to happen? any clues in dmesg log?
[07:07] <letterman> So uhmm.. there's no flash player for x64 linux?
[07:08] <KakaRoT-|> Molluck: are u using wpa in your router?
[07:08] <sil1> !iso
[07:08] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[07:08] <IntuitiveNipple> letterman: oh ***** don't remind me! I just ordered a 64-bit PC and forgot that!
[07:08] <Samus_Aran> letterman: gnash should work, though it isn't as full-featured as Adobe Flash
[07:08] <marshall> when i open gnome-font-properties (System>Preferences>Font) the window closes shortly after appearing. when i do it in the terminal, i get this output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20823/
[07:08] <scale3> can anyone tell me how to boot from the feisty install cd into my working file system on my hd, instead of the liveCD file system?
[07:08] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: I was about 20 minutes ago. i thought that was the reason why i was having problems, so i enabled WEP and rebooted the router. evidently, i'm still having issues.
[07:08] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: it says running /scripts/initbottom ... and then pauses for about 10 seconds
[07:08] <isidoro> hi
[07:08] <isidoro> :-)
[07:08] <lostboyz> if i install and run the alternative version of ubuntu/xubuntu will it run faster than the regular version?
[07:08] <scale3> or is there something like a boot rescue cd rather than ann istall cd?
[07:09] <Samus_Aran> scale3: when you boot the CD, press F1 for help.  it has instructions for how to boot into an installed system
[07:09] <letterman> thanks samus
[07:09] <scale3> ^an install
[07:09] <majd> how do you mount an external firewire drive with write permissions?
[07:09] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: Right after that every script runs noticeably slower through the rest of the boot process.
[07:09] <letterman> as long as I can dick around on sites like youtube I'll be ok ;)
[07:09] <scale3> samus_aran: thanks :)
[07:09] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: ok, I had something similar 6 months ago. The way I identified the culprit was to decompress the initrd boot image in /boot/ and then examine the script to see wha tit was doing
[07:09] <isidoro> what can use to edit a video file whithout re encoding??
[07:09] <lostboyz> if i install and run the alternative version of ubuntu/xubuntu will it run faster than the regular version?
[07:10] <lostboyz> if i install and run the alternative install version of xubuntu will it run faster than the regular version?
[07:10] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: I did that. It interrupts udev
[07:10] <Samus_Aran> scale3: welcome. the installer is looking pretty nice these days, and has a nicer help screen than before
[07:10] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: are you still there?
[07:10] <KakaRoT-|> Molluck: bad idea.. however I don't know how to fix up your problem, in my experiences it works fine automatically
[07:10] <Samus_Aran> isidoro: what type of video file, and what type of editing ?
[07:10] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: Also the problem doesn't happen if I boot on battery only.
[07:10] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: well what a fuckin bitch this is.
[07:10] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: i386 kernel doesn't do this at all.
[07:10] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: It *sounds* like you've got a device being repeatedly polled and it's timing out
[07:10] <Molluck> KakaRoT-|: i'm not holdin back when i say ubuntu has failed a first good impression.
[07:10] <c14uz> who use kde?
[07:10] <hammedhaaret> Samus_Aran: yes its an .iso file... is there a GUI tool.. or do i have to use terminal
[07:11] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: Is this a 64-bit laptop ?
[07:11] <kalpik> c14uz, join #kubuntu
[07:11] <brandon__> this is awful
[07:11] <brandon__> anyone here read Hindi?
[07:11] <LionRock> what should I install to play in firefox WMP streams ?
[07:11] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: using 32 bit feisty kubuntu with a centrino cpu
[07:11] <kalpik> brandon__, yeah.. me :)
[07:11] <isidoro> Samus_Aran: just cut some partes. the video is a divx file
[07:11] <scale3> hah. the help file on the live CD for rescue disc says "this is not a rescue disc"
[07:11] <hammedhaaret> ubotu: whats the <mountpoint> ?!?!
[07:11] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret: I recommend doing something like I did, wherein you can just click the iso icon to mount it
[07:11] <jam> Is there a way to empty the trash-bin from terminal with sudo powers? I tried rm -rf /home/jam/Trash/* but it didn't do anything. I didn't even get an error message... :(

[07:11] <dn4> anyone know how I can boot off a thumbstick which has a *.iso using grub as the boot manager
[07:12] <Samus_Aran> isidoro: just use mplayer to cut it, and then mencoder to put the pieces back together without reencoding
[07:12] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: Sounds like an ACPI issue? maybe try isolating it with "apci=off" on the kernel boot command line?
[07:12] <kdub432_> dn4 i did that once, but i forgot how i did it.... so its possible at least...
[07:12] <isidoro> Samus_Aran: but a gui soft like premiere?
[07:12] <Samus_Aran> scale2: it does ?  heh
[07:12] <greg_g> Samus_Aran> have you found that chipset support site?  (sorry to ask again)
[07:12] <junk32> Trying to upgrade from Edgy to Feisty and I always get multiple error messages like these: Failed to fetch http://givre.cabspace.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2 Sub-process bzip2 returned an error code (2)

[07:13] <majd> how do i see the mount name for an external drive?
[07:13] <IntuitiveNipple> isidoro: Have you looked at Cinelerra?
[07:13] <nomasteryoda> majd, if you type "mount" it will show all mounted drives
[07:13] <stian> is it possible to mount something in fstab, that contains a "space" in the folder name? exuse my english, im from norway..
[07:13] <Samus_Aran> greg_g: oops, sorry, forgot to paste it.  this is the one about SATA support, so if you will be using a SATA drive is certainly worth finding a mobo chipset that is fully supported by Linux already
[07:14] <Samus_Aran> greg_g: http://linuxmafia.com/faq/Hardware/sata.html
[07:14] <stian> example... mount /media/200/name here
[07:14] <hammedhaaret> Samus_Aran: tried to click it... it just opened the archieve manager
[07:14] <marshall> when i open gnome-font-properties (System>Preferences>Font) the window closes shortly after appearing. when i do it in the terminal, i get this output: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/20823/

[07:14] <isidoro> cinelerra no... i try google
[07:14] <Molluck> UBUNTU HAS FAILED ME.
[07:14] <stian> ive tried adding "
[07:14] <LionRock> what should I install to play in firefox WMP streams ?
[07:14] <stian> but it still gives me an error
[07:14] <IntuitiveNipple> stian: I *think* you can 'escape' the space with "mount /media/200/name\ here"
[07:14] <greg_g> Thanks again Samus_Aran
[07:14] <stian> i tried that as well :)
[07:14] <stian> didnt work
[07:14] <Tailsfan> If I use iwne on Ubuntu, will it work with teh Nintendo Wi-Fi USB Conector Software?
[07:15] <stian> that is, it works when I do it in a terminal
[07:15] <PriceChild> stian, tried "s ?
[07:15] <stian> yes i did
[07:15] <brandon__> kalpik, I'm working with a Hindi translation of our document.. and it's giving me a difficult time to get working on the web :)
[07:15] <stian> and it works in a terminal, but not thorugh fstab
[07:15] <Molluck> i cannot for the love of god connect to my wireless connection. this is GAY.
[07:15] <kalpik> brandon__, why dont you join #ubuntu-in
[07:15] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret: yes, it would have to be set up with a small script
[07:15] <vox754> !language > Molluck
[07:15] <IntuitiveNipple> stian: try replacing the space with %20 ?
[07:15] <stian> no, didnt try that, will try now. thanks
[07:15] <Molluck> gay is not a bad word
[07:16] <Tailsfan> Mullock, Did you set up your wirelss Drivers with Ndiswrapper?
[07:16] <Molluck> i don't know what that is1
[07:16] <IntuitiveNipple> stian: ok, here's how to do it!! replace the space with \040
[07:16] <Samus_Aran> stian: I think you may have to use a symlink for spaces in fstab (e.g. create /mnt/foo -> /full/path with spaces/foo)
[07:16] <PriceChild> Molluck, please do not use "gay" as a derogatory term.
[07:16] <IntuitiveNipple> stian: you can 'escape' the space with "mount /media/200/name\040here"
[07:16] <Molluck> PriceChild: frickin okay
[07:16] <hammedhaaret> Samus_Aran: do you have it at hand... or should i google
[07:16] <stian> thanks a lot, gonna try it now,, ill get back to you
[07:17] <PriceChild> Molluck, calm down and state your problem in depth. Then someone may be able to help you.

[07:17] <Molluck> i have already stated my problem in depth twice, both times 2 people have failed to help me.
[07:17] <IntuitiveNipple> for fstab, they recommend using \040
[07:17] <stian> also tried the single quotes, no go there either.. gonna try the \040 thing now tho
[07:17] <RoundyT1> what would i use to copy a directory to a server.....?
[07:17] <frinux> I cannot manage to connect my ubuntu on my windows VNC server, I get the message Unknown authentication scheme from VNC server: 19
[07:17] <Bradf0rd> Hey, is it even legal or possible for MS to charge royalties for Linux distro's?
[07:17] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: Thanks I will try that. (I was on the phone). bbafter
[07:17] <chief__> molluck what your card??
[07:17] <Molluck> i cannot connect to the internet via wireless network on my laptop. i have tried to configure it manually, but it still does not have a connection.

[07:18] <RoundyT1> what would i use to copy a directory to a server.....?
[07:18] <Molluck> chief__: the laptop has wifi capability
[07:18] <PriceChild> RoundyT1, sftp ?
[07:18] <Tailsfan> /joiN #openbsd
[07:18] <Bradf0rd> Thank YOU IntuitiveNipple!
[07:18] <stian> still no go, though i havent tried the symlink method yet.. gonna do that now :).. ill get back to you in a little bit
[07:18] <jam> dn4: http://wiki.flimzy.com/index.php/Debian_on_USB is a good explanation of what you want, and also: http://wiki.debian.org/DebianLive/Howto/USB
[07:18] <RoundyT1> PriceChild, :-D is the the directory equivalent to scp?
[07:18] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret: well I just wrote myself a 1-liner command for mounting an iso file, I can give you the command if you like
[07:19] <PriceChild> RoundyT1, its secure ftp
[07:19] <rr_lap> what is a good ftp server?
[07:19] <Bradf0rd> Also, is there a way to swap out the Alt key in place of Ctrl?
[07:19] <Samus_Aran> IntuitiveNipple: hm, didn't know \octal worked in /etc/fstab

[07:19] <DaFFes> hey guys how do i change the default program to an archieve type? i want .cpp to open in Kate and not in gedit
[07:19] <IntuitiveNipple> Samus_Aran: http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-27823.html
[07:19] <Bradf0rd> I'm a mac user, so it's sort of a hassle to reach all the way across the keyboard to press Ctrl rather than the command/windows or Alt
[07:20] <dyrne> rr_lap: im partial to vsftpd but really for home use i prefer sftp
[07:20] <rr_lap> how do i integrate felix/apache/upnp?
[07:20] <stian> cant get it working :(
[07:20] <Samus_Aran> stian: also keep in mind that "mount /mount/point" and "mount /mount/point/" are not always the same, so try both
[07:20] <IntuitiveNipple> DaFFes: Select a file of the type you want to change, right click and choose properties, then choose "Open With" tab
[07:20] <Samus_Aran> Bradf0rd: yes, changing the keyboard mapping

[07:21] <dn4> hmm is there a smart boot manager which allows for usb booting?
[07:21] <coopster> I'm having a wierd issue.  I'm setting up samba to manage a windows network, and I've got the server acting as a DNS server.  Everything works, except i cannot get the server to resolve names from /etc/hosts for clients on the network
[07:21] <SnapLin> thank god for dynamic ip's lol
[07:21] <stian> doesnt seem to be working
[07:21] <scale6> this is driving me up a wall.
[07:21] <Samus_Aran> majd: does the hfsplus filesystem support writing ?
[07:21] <hammedhaaret> Samus_Aran: sure.. if it works it would be nice... im pretty new with ubuntu which you might have noticed
[07:21] <stian> i just dont get it, but thanks alot for trying to help me guys
[07:21] <coopster> i have "10.0.0.1 optomizer" in /etc/hosts, but when a client pings 'optomizer', it returns hostname not found.  how can i troubleshoot this?
[07:21] <Samus_Aran> majd: if it does, then set a umask -o umask=000

[07:24] <DaFFes> Hey guys, i'm a new user in Ubuntu, and i had to reinstall the system once, before reinstalling my webcam was OK, and i hadnt configured anything, but after reinstalling my webcam doesnt function, i tried a lot of guided tutorials with spca and gspca, and my webcam is in the spca support list, does anyone know what can be happening?
[07:24] <letterman> Samus Aran, I typed 'sudo apt-get install gnash' and it seems to have installed but whenever I load a website with content type x-application-flash I get a message about there being nothing installed to handle this plugin type
[07:25] <dn4> is there a smart boot manager which allows for booting off a usb thumbstick?
[07:25] <DaFFes> its a A4tech camera and in the lsusb is described as Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0ac8:303b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0303 WebCam
[07:25] <Bradf0rd> Can Ubuntu read/write Mac OS Extended (journaled) Filesystem?
[07:25] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret: what is your user ID ?  you can run the command "id" if you don't know, it will be the first number next to your name
[07:25] <Garnol> HEY guys  .. my soundoutput is very silent .. what could be the problem ??
[07:25] <void^> alaK: you can run applications including entire desktops on remote X servers.
[07:25] <Samus_Aran> Garnol: ALSA is probably muted
[07:25] <DaFFes> Garnol,  u mean low volume or mute?
[07:26] <scale6> how can i use the feisty live/install cd to boot into my old file system instead of the live FS?
[07:26] <Garnol> low volume
[07:26] <IntuitiveNipple> This worked for me: "sudo mount /dev/hda1 /home/tj/test\ dir; sudo ls test\ dir"
[07:26] <Samus_Aran> Garnol: from a terminal run the command "alsamixer" and see if the master/pcm/wave etc. have an M below them (muted)
[07:26] <Samus_Aran> Garnol: well if it's just low and not silent, have you started with the basics: check the volume on your speakers, then check the volume in alsamixer ?
[07:26] <kalpik> Garnol, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
[07:26] <Garnol> yes i checked the basics ..

[07:27] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: Ok that confirms the problem is acpi.
[07:27] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: I love it when you can isolate things so quickly!
[07:27] <Samus_Aran> Garnol: keep in mind that ALSA sound drivers may have as many as 5 different volume controls for regular sounds
[07:27] <scale6> how can i use the feisty live/install cd to boot into my old file system instead of the live FS?
[07:27] <scale6> how can i use the feisty live/install cd to boot into my old file system instead of the live FS?
[07:27] <Samus_Aran> actually, I've seen one that had 6
[07:27] <hammedhaaret> Samus_Aran: .... does 1000 sound like a user id? thats whats between uid= and (my name)
[07:27] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret: yep
[07:28] <IntuitiveNipple> scale6: On the LiveCD menu, the last options says "Boot from your hard disk" or something similar
[07:28] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: Ok so now what? I'm really wanting to avoid compiling a kernel.
[07:28] <yeti_> !fr
[07:28] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[07:28] <scale6> intuitive: yeah, that doesn't work.
[07:28] <scale6> i had feisty working
[07:28] <scale6> i ran the system-update.
[07:28] <scale6> it installed the new kernel
[07:28] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret: okay, so the first step is to add a line to your /etc/fstab file that will allow regular users to mount an ISO file, do this: sudo sh -c 'echo /tmp/temp_user.iso /mnt/iso udf,iso9660 loop,ro,unhide,user,noauto,uid=1000,gid=0 0 0 >> /etc/fstab'
[07:28] <scale6> then my computer crashed
[07:28] <scale6> now it won't boot.
[07:28] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: I'd guess now the long slow work of working through the init scripts disabling one thing at a time and testing it (with ACPI enabled, of course!)
[07:28] <kalpik> !enter | scale6
[07:29] <ubotu> scale6: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[07:29] <scale6> it'll boot fine from the live cd
[07:29] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: Thats how I did it - unpack initrd, change the script, repack it... and over and over again
[07:29] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret: then open up /etc/fstab and confirm that the last line of the file is the /tmp/temp_user.iso /mnt/...blah part
[07:29] <mariah> IntuitiveNipple: lol, ok... see you when I'm old
[07:29] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: lol
[07:30] <scale6> so how do i boot from the cd, not from my hard drive, but into my hd's old file system, not the LiveCD fs?
[07:30] <Bradf0rd> Does anyone know if Ubuntu will read Mac Extended (journaled) Filesystem????
[07:30] <rr_lap> can i have apache use upnp by integrating it with felix?

[07:34] <dn4> ok I don't have a usb bootable motherboard, is there  a way to still boot off usb using a bootmanger?
[07:34] <steel_lady> please people, this is driving me crazy the whole day because I can not resolve my problem and I have to work!!!
[07:34] <Samus_Aran> slicknick_: it would probably be the second soundcard on the system, so other apps probably need to be told to use that second soundcard
[07:34] <joeljkp> i'm under the impression that esd is for mixing oss apps, and dmix is for alsa apps, right? so i need both of them enabled?
[07:34] <Garnol> again about my soundcard .. its still low volumed --- i checked the aplay -l command ...
[07:35] <coopster> I'm having a wierd issue.  I'm setting up samba to manage a windows network, and I've got the server acting as a DNS server.  Everything works, except i cannot get the server to resolve names from /etc/hosts for clients on the network
[07:35] <coopster> i have "10.0.0.1 optomizer" in /etc/hosts, but when a client pings 'optomizer', it returns hostname not found.  how can i troubleshoot this?
[07:35] <LionRock> what should I install to play in firefox WMP streams ?
[07:35] <Paradoxx> test
[07:35] <Garnol> and i dont know .. but in alsamixer there is no mutet thing ..
[07:35] <slicknick_> Samus_Aran : hmmmm k
[07:35] <hammedhaaret> Samus: ok i got lost a bit there... should i just write "sudo sh -c 'echo /tmp/temp_user.iso /mnt/iso udf,iso9660 loop,ro,unhide,user,noauto,uid=1000,gid=0 0 0 >> /etc/fstab'" in command line to add the or open the fstab and add the line there.... if i should open the fstab and add... how do i save???
[07:35] <joeljkp> lionrock: fluendo has wmp codecs for purchase
[07:35] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: if you use ALSA, then you have no OSS.  you have only "OSS Emulation" which simply means ALSA converts requests for OSS sound into normal ALSA requests
[07:35] <Paradoxx> How do I remount all drives in fstab?
[07:35] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: The client won't know the name if it isn't in the DNS server's zone records
[07:35] <Paradoxx> !fstab
[07:35] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[07:35] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: meaning dmix will mix both for you
[07:35] <Gab_> test
[07:36] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, doesn't /etc/hosts override that if it's set to in /etc/host.conf?
[07:36] <joeljkp> samus_aran: so i can disable esd without consequence?
[07:36] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: and neither one are needed if your soundcard can mix multiple sounds in hardware.  mine for example can mix 12 in hardware.  some cheaper soundcards only do software mixing
[07:36] <joeljkp> samus_aran: why is it enabled by default?
[07:36] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: Did i misunderstand you? I thought you meant the host entry is on the server, and your'e trying to use the name from the clients?
[07:37] <Paradoxx> How do I remount all drives in fstab without rebooting?
[07:37] <kalpik> Paradoxx, sudo mount -a
[07:37] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: so it will be like Windows 2000 and above: you can always play more than one sound at a time, no matter what soundcard you have.  Gnome uses ESD, KDE uses ARTS.  its their way of making sure people don't have the "only one sound at a time" issue

[07:37] <ubotu> wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[07:37] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: dmix is not usually set up
[07:37] <Hobbsee> steel_lady: i suspect you'll get other attention than what you wanted
[07:37] <buerste> some1 using a fujitsu siemens pi1556? my microphone doesn't work! (yes, sounds like the apocalypse has finally come)
[07:37] <joeljkp> samus_aran: oh? i thought dmix was enabled by default in ubuntu? at least, my software-mixing-only card mixes fine after killing esd
[07:37] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, right.  i have samba set up to use wins, then host, then bcast, so my understanding is that wins would fail, then host would check /etc/hosts on the server, see the entry, and return the correct IP, but this isnt happening
[07:38] <Gab_> Hubbseeagree
[07:38] <Paradoxx> kalpik, that mounts...I want to unmount as well
[07:38] <LionRock> joeljkp, any open source ? :/
[07:38] <|ericsson|> steel_lady: what is your problem?
[07:38] <Hobbsee> steel_lady: of course, maybe stating your question might help.
[07:38] <Garnol> my system volume is very low .. i cant change it trough the basic things ... i think its a problem of my driver or interface .. can you help ?? Or do you have a good tutorial ??
[07:38] <nonZero> Hi there!  on Feisty, I've got the sound card detected w/o any problem but the mic doesn't work.
[07:38] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: ESD and ARTS are part of the Gnome and KDE packages.  they aren't related to ALSA in any way
[07:38] <steel_lady> PriceChild, I am trying to get help the whole day today and my boss is waiting to have the work done while I can not even install the program!
[07:38] <kalpik> Paradoxx, sudo umount -a && sudo mount -a
[07:38] <nonZero> any idea where to start from?
[07:38] <joeljkp> lionrock: yeah, gstreamer-ffmpeg, but the warning is that it's illegal in most countries
[07:38] <joeljkp> samus_aran: right, right, but they both mix sounds in software
[07:38] <rr_lap> can i have apache use upnp by integrating it with felix?
[07:39] <Garnol> my system volume is very low .. i cant change it trough the basic things ... i think its a problem of my driver or interface .. can you help ?? Or do you have a good tutorial ??
[07:39] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: ok, so, we are talking about the Server only? how it works out the IP to return for a DNS request, by controlling the places it looks for that name?
[07:39] <joeljkp> samus_aran: i.e. if you have dmix enabled, you don't need esd
[07:39] <Paradoxx> kalpik it says devices busy

[07:39] <Paradoxx> kalpik, guess I'll just reboot
[07:39] <joeljkp> garnol: tried it in windows?
[07:39] <axisys> any visio like tool out there?
[07:40] <kalpik> Paradoxx, that's fine
[07:40] <hammedhaaret_> Samus_Aran: got logged off there for a sec...   i got lost a bit there... should i just write "sudo sh -c 'echo /tmp/temp_user.iso /mnt/iso udf,iso9660 loop,ro,unhide,user,noauto,uid=1000,gid=0 0 0 >> /etc/fstab'" in command line to add the or open the fstab and add the line there.... if i should open the fstab and add... how do i save???
[07:40] <Scunizi> Garnol:  Are you running gnome and have you installed any kde apps that use the kde sound system?
[07:40] <kalpik> Paradoxx, it will only unmount drives that are other than /, swap and .home
[07:40] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: I have no idea if Ubuntu sets up dmix by default, but most distros do not.  if it is set up, then esd should not be needed.  try this: mv /usr/bin/esd /tmp; kill $(ps auxww|awk '/esd/ {print $2}')
[07:41] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, sorry, I know I'm probably not being very clear.  I have samba set up on the server, and the clients networked.  I want a client to be able to resolve 'server' to the server's IP address.  I have an entry in /etc/hosts on the server that does this, but for some reason that's not working.  It resolves correctly on the server, but not at all on the client
[07:41] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: then see if you can still play more than one sound at a time.  if not, mv /tmp/esd /usr/bin
[07:41] <|ericsson|> steel_lady: did you see the line: Note: Building this code requires an ANSI C-compiler. ?
[07:41] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: you'll need "sudo" before those 'mv' commands, as they need to be done by root
[07:41] <kalpik> Garnol, did you try to follow http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449 ?
[07:41] <Garnol> scunizi: i additional installed xmms and amarok
[07:41] <majd> i have windows installed on one partition, is there a way to set it up such that i install ubuntu wi/o damaging my data?
[07:42] <Scunizi> I'm not sure .. but is amarok KDE based?
[07:42] <IntuitiveNipple> axisys: Dia
[07:42] <IntuitiveNipple> grrr
[07:42] <zaggynl> Scunizi, yep
[07:42] <axisys> IntuitiveNipple: thx
[07:42] <|ericsson|> !grub > majd
[07:42] <joeljkp> samus_aran: yes, it worked after moving esd
[07:42] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, it's odd, because the clients are all set to use the server as the only DNS server, and they can resolve public addresses correctly.
[07:42] <scale6> my computer doesn't boot. can anyone help me?
[07:42] <|ericsson|> scale6: could you be a bit more informative?
[07:42] <steel_lady> |ericsson| yes I did and it is supposed to come with pgplot package but it does not work. I installed it manually but further in instalation description of pgplot it requieres for more things that I can not install
[07:42] <CarinArr> hmm right i'm a bit puzzled.. i was getting around 4000 FPS with my gf7600 card before i reinstalled my ubuntu, now, after reinstalling, nvidia drivers properly installed, etc. i'm only getting 10 - 12FPS
[07:43] <Garnol> kalpik: i tried the first command  .. my soundcards are supported ..
[07:43] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: ok, so you want the Server's DNS server to use the /etc/hosts file as well as its zone files, in essence, then
[07:43] <CarinArr> glxinfo shows direct rendering as yes.. anyone have any idea what might be wrong>?
[07:43] <majd> |ericsson|, grub is a bootloader...i need something to partition and install ubuntu w/o damaging my windows data

[07:43] <Bradf0rd> Is there a way to get quicktime to play in Ubuntu???
[07:43] <abarbaccia> hello all - somehow i filled up my primary partition but i don't know where the big files are - can someone let me know how to figure this out?
[07:43] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, yes.  it appears to do that locally, because i can ping 'server' from the server, and it pings the correct IP, but that does not work from a client.
[07:43] <welch> hey, i am trying to get wpa to work in ubuntu. i googled and followed a tutorial, but i still can't connect. i can't find where to enter my network username and password. does anyone know how to?
[07:43] <Scunizi> Garnol:  I use Kalarm and this happens to me.  Sometimes the sound control/mixer for KDE loads and mutes the gnome mixer.  Sometimes not. Do you have two "speaker" icons by the clock?
[07:43] <joeljkp> bradf0rd: only illegally
[07:43] <hammedhaaret_> samus_aran: thx for the help so far.... but can you explain it to me again? the mount script
[07:43] <joeljkp> bradf0rd: or with something like wine
[07:43] <|ericsson|> majd: using diskdruid or partitioner that comes with (k)ubuntu and then using Grub/Lilo makes your system a dual-boot
[07:43] <nonZero> my microphone does not work:  should i switch from ALSA to something else?
[07:44] <Bradf0rd> Joeljkp, Well can you pm me?
[07:44] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: That is what I'd expect, because when you do that locally the kernel checks the local /etc/hosts file before trying DNS
[07:44] <|ericsson|> majd: one solution is to install i.e grub on a floppy disk if you don't want to mess about with your MBR
[07:45] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, right, but I had thought it would go through the same process for a samba user, which it apparently doesn't.  I've also tried adding the addresses to lmhosts, but that did nothing.
[07:45] <Alonea> how do I connect to a network with WAP?
[07:45] <Scunizi> !wap

[07:45] <Samus_Aran> joeljkp: did you also kill the processes with that ps|awk command ?
[07:45] <welch> alonea, i am trying to do that as well. this helped : http://ubuntu-tutorials.blogspot.com/2007/02/enable-wpa-wireless-access-point-in.html

[07:50] <Hadron> Paradoxx: google up/man fstab
[07:50] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: I'd try reducing samba's name resolution to just "hosts" just to prove the file is actually being used!
[07:50] <Samus_Aran> nonZero: okay.  first off, open a terminal and load the program "alsamixer", then press Tab to get to the recording selector and find your microphone in the list, use the right arrow to go to it and Spacebar to select that as your recording source
[07:50] <Paradoxx> Hadron, kk
[07:50] <nonZero_> Samus_Aran:  soundcard. speakers work OK

[07:51] <welch> scunizi: thanks for the link, but there was no information about configuring it with a specific username and password. do you have any other ideas?
[07:51] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret_: that's not all of it, that was step 1.  two more steps

[07:51] <Paradoxx> Hadron, I'm sure what exactly I am looking for
[07:51] <welch> scunizi: i am pretty sure the problem is that ubuntu is trying to use my account name (or no name) as my username
[07:51] <hammedhaaret_> Samus_aran: no no.. just thought i should.. never mind.. im ready for step 2
[07:51] <Scunizi> welch:  sorry I haven't delved into wpa on wireless espicially on fiesty.  I'm still on dapper which has lousy support for wpa.

[07:52] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, no apparent effect.  I had a thought that it may be dhcp related, would an incorrect wins entry do this maybe?

[07:52] <Hadron> s/filed/field
[07:52] <|ericsson|> steel_lady: as you mentioned, it does not come with the pgplot libraries and I don't know where they might be located
[07:52] <Samus_Aran> nonZero: after that, press Tab twice more to go back to the main alsamixer screen, and tap right arrow and look for an "input gain" or similar control, as you usually want to turn that on.  then keep going right and there will usually be some badly named items to adjust the input recording volume, you'll probably need to turn it up, maybe unmute it
[07:52] <hammedhaaret_> Samus_Aran: im not... im ready for step 2

[07:58] <welch> IntuitiveNipple: okay, so there is no hope?
[07:58] <kemik> is there a way to log on a remoteserver, start an X app and *not* redirect output to the client, but instead let it run as if i were sitting locally ?
[07:59] <Garnol> under processes ?
[07:59] <Hadron> daltocli: installs are not CPU intensive. They are disk bound.
[07:59] <daltocli> kalpik, I'll do that I think... But I'm using a 64-bit OS
[07:59] <daltocli> Hadron, true
[07:59] <IntuitiveNipple> welch: There's always hope; but it might be futile :p
[07:59] <nonZero_> Samus_Aran:  (i'm on the phone... :-( )
[07:59] <kalpik> daltocli, aah,, ok :)
[07:59] <welch> IntuitiveNipple: okay, thaks
[07:59] <daltocli> I think even when it's done things will be pretty good
[07:59] <Scunizi> This might be tough to do since you might have a tone loaded in amorok. but have you tried uninstalling amarok then testing after a reboot?
[07:59] <BioHaZZarD> HIgh
[07:59] <kodge> i'm having some trouble with beryl, is therw another channel i should be in?
[07:59] <daltocli> I have Core 2 Duo T5500 with 2gb ram
[07:59] <Samus_Aran> nonZero_: there are four main controls for microphones: 1) recording source [needs to be set to mic] , 2) input gain [without it many mics are almost silent] , 3) mic recording volume, 4) mic output volume
[07:59] <BioHaZZarD> nope this one is the fullest
[07:59] <daltocli> Should keep things nice and useable :D
[08:00] <Samus_Aran> nonZero_: the mic output volume will normally be muted, otherwise your speakers will play what you are speaking into the microphone, and then it will get recorded again and create awful feedback
[08:00] <DaFFes> Hey guys does anyone know how to make script for XCHAT like it could be done for Mirc?
[08:00] <hammedhaaret_> Samus_Aran: in IRC??
[08:00] <Scunizi> garnol: I answered but didn't put your name in the post .. look above..to catch it.
[08:00] <Samus_Aran> nonZero_: but the mic output volume is good to turn up for testing
[08:00] <daltocli> DaFFes, http://www.xchat.org :)
[08:00] <Garnol> Scunizi: cant i use amarok ??.. or do i have to uninstall it temporarly
[08:00] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret_: yes
[08:00] <daltocli> Or, google.com :P
[08:00] <IntuitiveNipple> welch: there's a known bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/107321
[08:00] <Samus_Aran> DCC SEND request sent to hammedhaaret_: user_mount_iso.sh

[08:01] <coaniepi> hi, what is default torrent client in Feisty please? : )
[08:01] <daltocli> You use perl, python or TCL :)
[08:01] <daltocli> I've yet to test ruby and php :P
[08:01] <DaFFes> i guess tcl is more like mirc scripting
[08:01] <daltocli> I certainly hope not
[08:01] <nickrud> coaniepi, gnome-btdownload
[08:01] <BioHaZZarD> i hav a amd athlon fx-60 64 bit dualcore 2x 2,8 GH a DFI Lanparty MOBO Got Dual Channel extra fast G.E.I.L physical memory A Ati Radeon EAX 1900XTX Crossfire :D and a Seagate 320 Gig Hard disk OW YEAH AND I HAV DRIVERS PROBLEMZ!!!!! :S
[08:01] <hammedhaaret_> ok......guess that didnt work
[08:01] <Scunizi> Garnol:  You can uninstall without removing everything just as a test to see how the volume reacts...I'm not sure if this will actually do anything but if a KDE app is causing the issue this might let you know.
[08:02] <DaFFes> Hey guys, i'm a new user in Ubuntu, and i had to reinstall the system once, before reinstalling my webcam was OK, and i hadnt configured anything, but after reinstalling my webcam doesnt function, i tried a lot of guided tutorials with spca and gspca, and my webcam is in the spca support list, does anyone know what can be happening?
[08:02] <daltocli> mirc scripting is just plain revolting and primative :)
[08:02] <DaFFes> its a A4tech camera and in the lsusb is described as Bus 001 Device 006: ID 0ac8:303b Z-Star Microelectronics Corp. ZC0303 WebCam
[08:02] <steel_lady> PriceChild, you see, I still don't have any suggestions or help :(
[08:02] <daltocli> I think you need to do a custom install for the spca5xx driver
[08:02] <coaniepi> nickrud, thanks. : )
[08:02] <daltocli> I always had to (I really should test it out again)
[08:02] <retaliator> where can I change the color theme of my murrine gtk?
[08:02] <DaFFes> daltocli, i did it a lot of times
[08:02] <DaFFes> hehe
[08:02] <daltocli> Oh :S
[08:02] <fruitbag> Hey all...
[08:02] <DaFFes> spca5xx
[08:02] <DaFFes> gspca
[08:02] <fruitbag> I have a big dilema.
[08:02] <DaFFes> ...
[08:02] <Garnol> Scunizi: i hate things like that .... im now going to remove all KDE software from Synaptic ...
[08:03] <Scunizi> Garnol:  another question.... was this card working before?
[08:03] <daltocli> It is a pain in the rear, isn't it?
[08:03] <fruitbag> I'm trying to install Ubuntu 7.04 from a USB stic.
[08:03] <nickrud> retaliator, if it's changeable, it'll be in system->prefs->themes, under a tab there
[08:03] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, no luck.
[08:03] <fruitbag> stick *
[08:03] <DaFFes> sure it is
[08:03] <fruitbag> Some of the first instructions are rather vague.
[08:03] <DaFFes> because it has already functioned once
[08:03] <theconartist> retaliator, theres a tab thats sometimes disabled. otherwise in the teme file
[08:03] <Garnol> Scunizi: i worked very well with ubuntu 6.06
[08:03] <daltocli> I'll give it a test again with my cam when I've finished my vmware stuff
[08:03] <Scunizi> Garnol: or just sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop and try kde in a session to see what happens.
[08:03] <Jonah> hi is there anyone please that can help me out with a RAM problem....
[08:03] <fruitbag> For example: "Copy some files from sub-directories to the root directory." -- what files, and from what sub-directories?
[08:03] <Jonah> please?
[08:03] <fruitbag> ...
[08:03] <theconartist> retaliator, and im not sure but the murrina configurator might have some controls for that
[08:03] <fruitbag> It doesn't make much sense.
[08:03] <byron> Hello. I've got a problem with hibernate and suspend on my notebook. Well it switches off fine but on restart nothing happens and I'll get a black screen and I can't shutdown. Any suggestions to solve the problem?
[08:04] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: You know it works locally on the server, so it sounds like a case that samba isn't checking (or doesn't have permissions to) /etc/hosts
[08:04] <retaliator> no you can change lots of things with murrina configurator
[08:04] <retaliator> but not the colors
[08:04] <retaliator> and thats what I want
[08:04] <Garnol> Scunizi: oh .. nearly 500MB  .. this could take a while ...
[08:04] <Garnol> but its installing
[08:04] <theconartist> well then whip out your text editor on the theme file
[08:04] <Garnol> btw do you have icq ??
[08:04] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: Is there any reason you can't add the Server's name into DNS and have WINS set to check DNS?
[08:04] <Scunizi> Garnol;  Yikes
[08:04] <fruitbag> Any views here on what I could do?
[08:05] <majd> when i install ubuntu using the "Use the largest continuous free space" option, it doesn't damage any windows data right?
[08:05] <Garnol> scunizi: whats Yikes ??
[08:05] <TakeshiKovacs> hey guys
[08:05] <kemik> is there a way to log on a remoteserver, start an X app and *not* redirect output to the client, but instead let it run as if i were sitting locally (display on the remoteservers 'native' display)?
[08:05] <Scunizi> Garnol: 500mg
[08:05] <welch> hey, this program i am trying to install is asking for the directory of the ubuntu kernel source code? which is it?
[08:05] <dyrne> kemik: yeah
[08:06] <TakeshiKovacs> jesus, what a chaos here :p
[08:06] <kemik> dyrne: how would i do? as it is now it insists on forwarding
[08:06] <IntuitiveNipple> welch: thank goodness you're back I had news for you but you'd gone
[08:06] <welch> oh thanks
[08:06] <IntuitiveNipple> welch: check this https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/107321
[08:06] <titusg> hi, I have an external usb hdd, with two fat32 partitions on it - it pmounts read-only when I plug it in. How can I mount it rw and format it so that it can be used on linux & windows?
[08:06] <dyrne> kemik: for instance type 'w' and enter then whatever diskplay do 'export DISPLAY=:0.0' then ' firefox&' or whatever
[08:06] <spo0ner> kemik: have you tried "screen"?
[08:06] <dyrne> kemik: maybe i misunderstood one sec
[08:07] <spo0ner> oh...maybe I misunderstood the request
[08:07] <__Ace__> how and where to change to make ubuntu automount as ntfs-3g when that is found?
[08:07] <fruitbag> Bah...
[08:07] <fruitbag> Why are these instructions so vague?
[08:07] <__Ace__> and how to fix where it should automount
[08:07] <DaFFes> daltocli, about mirc scripting... I'm doing now Computer Engineering, in the best University of Brazil, and i started programming in Mirc Scripting, and its not so primitive as u think hehe
[08:07] <fruitbag> For example: "Copy some files from sub-directories to the root directory." -- what files, and from what sub-directories?
[08:07] <ubuntu> bugaga
[08:07] <Chr1831> i am looking 4 a project manager 4 ubuntu anyone know a good one?
[08:07] <DaFFes> i mean i started with mirc scripting when i was 14
[08:07] <kemik> spo0ner: not sure what 'screen' has to do with this?
[08:07] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, I'm trying that right now.
[08:07] <daltocli> DaFFes, It is, when you compare it most languages out there
[08:07] <ubuntu>  ?)))
[08:07] <fruitbag> "Rename the  isolinux.scg to syslinux.cfg and edit it a bit." -- edit what?
[08:08] <spo0ner> I misunderstood, I thought you were trying to run a remote screen and disconnect
[08:08] <daltocli> php, perl and python make it look like nothing more then handwriting :P
[08:08] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: I've never liked using 'hosts' for this reason. I always add a local LAN zone to DNS
[08:08] <kemik> spo0ner: ah, no :)
[08:08] <spo0ner> I completely misunderstood
[08:08] <daltocli> Let alone mono, C/C++, lisp, etc
[08:08] <Chr1831> anyone?

[08:09] <TakeshiKovacs> majd, it should not, no. at least that option did it for me ;)
[08:09] <zaggynl> Anyone knows of any hack attempts/tests on ubuntu feisty? or tutorials to further harden/secure ubuntu?
[08:10] <PriceChild> zaggynl, there's a little something on planet.ubuntu.com atm I think.

[08:11] <Jonah> i'm on amd64
[08:12] <IntuitiveNipple> byron: That's a well known problem with so many solutions or partial solutions depending on the model, etc.
[08:12] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret_: you still there ?  apparently I shouldn't have pasted that line about the DCC send, I got booted from freenode =p
[08:12] <PriceChild> Samus_Aran, hey yeah sorry about that.
[08:13] <hammedhaaret_> Samus_Aran: im here
[08:13] <byron> well i got a toshiba satellite a100-01l: core2duo t2250; nvidia geforce go 7600; 1gb ram
[08:13] <PriceChild> Samus_Aran, hammedhaaret_ there's no real reason why you should have to use dcc
[08:13] <PriceChild> Samus_Aran, what are you trying to send?
[08:13] <technicallyhesri> I'm interested in setting up a bluetooth dongle on Feisty, anyone have a favorite configuration with a GUI that works?
[08:13] <Samus_Aran> PriceChild: a 4 line bash script for hammedhaaret_
[08:13] <Rene_J> hi, i installed ubuntu on my laptop and after some time wiped the partition. as grub now fails to find /boot i can't boot into windows. I read through some faq's and figured that booting from a windows cd and running fdisk /mbr & fixboot would fix this. sadly this requires an administrator password. is it possible to restore the windows bootmanager from linux, alternatively use grub to boot windows (ubuntu is removed only temporarily)
[08:13] <TakeshiKovacs> anyone here familiar with the cpufreq-stuff?
[08:13] <PriceChild> !paste | Samus_Aran
[08:13] <ubotu> Samus_Aran: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:14] <majd> does the live cd not let you transfer files from the windows partition to the external hard drive?
[08:14] <PriceChild> Samus_Aran, or just pm him it?
[08:14] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret_: I can pastebin it if you like
[08:14] <PriceChild> Samus_Aran, dcc is overkill
[08:14] <coopster> IntuitiveNipple, what should i set the zone name to in named.conf.local if i want it to serve the LAN?
[08:14] <technicallyhesri> Rene_J, you might try using 'ultimatebootdisk'
[08:14] <technicallyhesri> worked for me
[08:14] <Rene_J> i don't have a floppy
[08:14] <Samus_Aran> PriceChild: we're on IRC, DCC is there for file transfers.  it is very common for copying and pasting to break Bash scripts.  for example line endings can change, or tabs can end up misconverted.  I've had many scripts break when people copy and paste them
[08:15] <hammedhaaret_> Samus_Aran: whatever suits you and makes me able to open iso files
[08:15] <IntuitiveNipple> coopster: I always make it "lan.domain.tld" where "domain.tld" is the company's Internet domain
[08:15] <byron> using the nvidia drivers, i read that there is a solution for an other model but it won't work for mine.
[08:16] <Chr1831> how come the open link on downloaded files on firefox does not work?
[08:16] <scale6> how can i mount a file system from the Live disk such that i can chroot into it?
[08:16] <mon^rch> can I add a "--bind" line to /etc/fstab ?
[08:17] <harry_> I installed xubuntu and I'm wondering how to remove/turn off the gui
[08:17] <mon^rch> scale6: if you start gparted and close it it will mount all the file systems :/
[08:17] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret_: just a moment, I need to add one thing to the script for you, as you won't be running this from the console, you'll be clicking in the GUI
[08:18] <mon^rch> scale6: or you can sudo mount -a
[08:18] <Do``> could someone help me with an automount issue?
[08:18] <D2> hi
[08:18] <Do``> how do i keep 'automount on hotplugged devices'
[08:18] <mon^rch> can I add a "--bind" line to /etc/fstab ?
[08:18] <isidoro> hi
[08:18] <Do``> without remounting automatically when i disconnect an external hdd drive?
[08:18] <kanpachi> hello, how long can i use dapper? i tried feisty but i didn't like it, when is the new LTS coming along?
[08:18] <isidoro> I have a problem with my usb disk
[08:18] <isidoro> it is a 250GB
[08:19] <isidoro> linux mount it in read only
[08:19] <PriceChild> kanpachi, at least 12 months
[08:19] <kanpachi> 12 months?
[08:19] <isidoro> and automatically unmount and mount in a sort of loop
[08:19] <kanpachi> wasn't it released last year?
[08:19] <maynards-girl> how do I create a shortcut/launcher-link on the desktop to a certain directory?
[08:19] <kanpachi> or two years ago, if i'm not mistaken?
[08:19] <Myrtti> kanpachi: well the support for dapper is three years on desktop
[08:19] <PriceChild> kanpachi, last lts was 6th month of 2006
[08:19] <PriceChild> kanpachi, next one won't be for at least 12 months
[08:19] <Myrtti> kanpachi: starting last june
[08:20] <Do``> isidoro: i have the same problem with a few details changed
[08:20] <Myrtti> Tribes: turn that off
[08:20] <kanpachi> no i mean, if i have a problem, and i come asking here or in the forums, won't people tell me to upgrade to feisty? i've seen it done
[08:20] <PriceChild> kanpachi, ah i answered your second question :)
[08:20] <D2> kanpachi: 7.O4 means 2OO7 and April
[08:20] <isidoro> Do``: how did you solved
[08:20] <kanpachi> i'm talking about DAPPER , not feisty
[08:20] <PriceChild> kanpachi, the answer to your first question is that dapper is supported for 3 years on desktop and 5 on the server... which gives you over 2 more years of security updates :)
[08:20] <Do``> isidoro: dont know, but when i disconnect my drive it automatically gets remounted
[08:20] <Do``> which screws up the journal of the ntfs partition on it
[08:21] <majd> Hey, I'm mounting an external firewire drive but it's not mounting with writing permissions, I'm trying to backup some windows files to the external drive
[08:21] <majd> they're both mounting
[08:21] <majd> the windows one w/o write, but i don't need that
[08:21] <isidoro> Do``: my usb disk is fat32
[08:21] <hammedhaaret_> Samus_Aran: as long as it takes... really appreciate the help (:
[08:21] <nox-Hand> How would I see what GFX my PC has? :D
[08:21] <Do``> i dont know what could make it read only, sorry
[08:21] <kanpachi> ok, thanx, i hate to think i'd be forced to upgrade to Feisty
[08:21] <nox-Hand> Ah, Hardware info ;)
[08:21] <maynards-girl> how do I create a shortcut/launcher-link on the desktop to a certain directory?
[08:21] <scale6> when i try to chroot to my mounted HD, i get: "chroot: cannot run command '/bin/bash': Permission denied"
[08:22] <lbci> kanpachi, do you have a problem or just asking about LTS
[08:22] <nox-Hand> How would I find out whether my "Trident Cyberblade/i1" motherboard card accepts any 3d stuff? (glx, Beryl niceness ;))
[08:23] <technicallyhesri> Is this the right room to ask about bluetooth on Feisty?
[08:23] <Soundless> probably

[08:23] <welch> to make this change https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/107321
[08:23] <Soundless> hi all I got a really big problem and I'm really desperate I really really need help with this
[08:23] <void^> scale6: if you are root and permissions appear to be alright it's probably just mounted noexec (automagic mounts often are)
[08:24] <Soundless> I have a HP DV2000 next to thispc and I had ubuntu on it.. it doesn't boot any cd anymore except the ubuntu boot cd
[08:24] <scale6> void^: it is mounted "noexec". how do I change that?
[08:24] <void^> scale6: remount it.
[08:24] <D2> Soundless: have you tried Bios?
[08:24] <scale6> i've tried. it remounts "noexec".

[08:26] <Xyhthyx> Or in nautilus, create one using the right click menu and put it on your desktop.

[08:32] <Soundless> D2: I've ordered it from HP itself it should have it... + it does boot on this pc (well not exactly but it gives an error that this isn't an hp pc etc)
[08:32] <BioHaZZarD> i need some fast help on network configuration quite a challenge ;) i got a dual onboard netword adapter 1 for incoming and one for a second pc (through mine) the question is how do i set it up....
[08:33] <deadend> leave
[08:34] <BioHaZZarD> Q: Where can i read DHCP addisnged network adress
[08:34] <Soundless> but on the laptop (which the DVD belongs to) it doens't even give an error it just goes straight to the HDD and gives me the GRUB error 22 (no HDD) probably because it's empty :P
[08:35] <anto> Heya, what command do i use to view all active programms?

[08:35] <D2> Soundless: This is what I think: I doubt about having Windoze on any other CD/DVD than on original disc from Microsoft (except when you burned it yourself ;-) ), so that Recovery DVD contains only drivers and programs
[08:36] <Soundless> ok D2 forgot about that what about the UBCD
[08:36] <anto> what do i type if i want to find the a programm called otserv?
[08:36] <Soundless> it doesn't boot that either
[08:36] <Soundless> ...
[08:36] <Soundless> and btw
[08:36] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret_: oops, the package is in lowercase.  'xdialog'
[08:36] <anto> in ps ax list?
[08:36] <D2> Soundless: But I can also make a mistake, I have never bought any HP laptop
[08:36] <Soundless> the HP recovery disk did boot before...
[08:36] <theconartist> how can i tell why a package is being held back in an update?
[08:37] <sldkfj> Anyone?    How do I change an icon in Gnome's Nautilus 'tree',  I have a USB stick that has an IPod icon.
[08:37] <Pelo> theconartist,  you can'T afaik  but don'T worry about it , if it is being held it's for a good reason
[08:37] <Pelo> sldkfj,  right click properites , click the icon displayed in the first tab
[08:38] <Jonah> hi can anyone please help me out - ubuntu won't boot after upgrading my RAM, this seems to be the closest thing i can find on google: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2653783#post2653783   but it doesn't offer any help i understand and i don't wanna reinstall....
[08:38] <Soundless> any idea?
[08:38] <anto> exit
[08:38] <hammedhaaret_> Samus_Aran: and that was it? if so.. you're the best!!!
[08:38] <k00kla> 
[08:38] <Jonah> my post with my problem is at bottom of that thread
[08:38] <D2> Soundless: I opened a channel just for you, you should see it somewhere, go there
[08:39] <Pelo> Jonah,  ave you tried removing the extra memory see if your system can still boot without it ?
[08:39] <D2> I don't know what IRC talker you are using, so I don't know, where what...
[08:39] <D2> do you copy?
[08:39] <Soundless> I'm using Mirc
[08:39] <Jonah> my simply mepis live disc boots up no problems however
[08:40] <Soundless> but I got no clue which channel you mean
[08:40] <deskyfly> oh my godness
[08:40] <technicallyhesri> What's the easiest way to setup bluetooth? I'm used to OSX (for idiots)
[08:40] <Jonah> Pelo, yeah it works fine just not with 4gb of mem....
[08:40] <D2> I mean a private one
[08:40] <philwhln> what's the best graphics card for installing beryl effects?
[08:40] <technicallyhesri> I downloaded the KDE stuff with apt
[08:40] <deskyfly> many people=) greate
[08:40] <Pelo> Jonah,  can you boot recovery mode ?
[08:40] <Jonah> it seems to be a problem ubuntu has with too much mem
[08:40] <deskyfly> hello all!
[08:40] <theconartist> how can i tell why a package is being held back in an update?
[08:40] <Soundless> any clue how or where I can find it with mIRC
[08:40] <tjl30> there is something wrong with the bottom panel I need help
[08:40] <Anakao> ubuntu great!!

[08:41] <nox-Hand> why is pidgin not in packages?
[08:41] <bnjmn> i have a huge file (5 gigabytes) and i want to delete the first 2 gigs of it.  how should i best go about doing this?
[08:41] <CheshireViking> !pidgin | nox-Hand
[08:41] <ubotu> nox-Hand: 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
[08:41] <D2> Soundless: never mind, I just tried, now back to the problem
[08:41] <Pelo> Jonah,  there is a third option in the grub boot menu,   mem check  , try it
[08:41] <technicallyhesri> you might be able to dd the 5gb file to another file and stop at a certain point
[08:41] <technicallyhesri> then delete the original
[08:41] <D2> now your PC doesn't boot anything, right?
[08:41] <ditoa> hi
[08:41] <bnjmn> nnng
[08:42] <Soundless> except ubuntu disk
[08:42] <nox-Hand> CheshireViking: More why one can't apt-get it. It's stable and it's out
[08:42] <bnjmn> i don't have that much space left on the disk
[08:42] <technicallyhesri> ouch
[08:42] <tjl30> can some one help my out, when I go to minus out programs they disapear

[08:43] <BioHaZZarD> CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHERE I CAN READ MY ROUTER ADRESS? (Standard gateway) windows on my linux network
[08:43] <D2> have you checked the discs for any damage?
[08:43] <maaike> there is no damage, works fine under windows

[08:43] <david> less caps for the win
[08:43] <CheshireViking> nox-Hand, even if its stable, if its not added to the repo's, it won't be available, canonical must have decided for some reason that they aren't adding it
[08:44] <retaliator> how can you add a "new mail" icon in the notification area for thunderbird?
[08:44] <Soundless> maaike try the NTFS tool from automatix

[08:45] <PihI> Hi! I have encountered a very strange problem with Feisty. There is this webpage which I cannot access with Ubuntu -either with FF, Opera or Konqueror. I have previously visited the site with Feisty (another computer though) but I can't anymore. It works fine with IE6. Does anobody have an idea what the problem might be ??
[08:46] <ubuntu__> Ar yra LIETUVIU?
[08:46] <Xyhthyx> PihI, maybe the webpage is now designed for IE ;__;
[08:47] <ubuntu__> fuckers
[08:47] <marcin> hi, got a problem
[08:47] <technicallyhesri> Pihl, this may be a SSL or some other security issue
[08:47] <PihI> Xyhthyx: Perhaps yes. Perhaps this was a known issue
[08:47] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret_: I have the script done, but it is telling me a message it shouldn't.  I'm just sorting that out then you will be able to use it
[08:47] <marcin> I've installed my ubuntu in the safe graphic mode... and now my biggest resolution is 800x600.. does anybody know where and how to fix it?
[08:47] <kernel288> hey guys, how do i open Bittorrent if its already installed on my ubuntu version? Need the terminal command
[08:48] <D2> Soundless: what have you burned UBCD with?
[08:48] <gnomefreak> kernel288: most of the time the name of the app will open it in term
[08:48] <Soundless> nero
[08:48] <Xyhthyx> marcin, you mean you booted in safe graphics mode. Boot in normal mode.
[08:48] <sharyari> Has anyone tried installing the nvidia-drivers with the program envy?
[08:48] <sharyari> I don't get consoles when I do....
[08:48] <Soundless> but like I said the hp dvd booted before too
[08:48] <kernel288> well but it doesnt. it says that its not found.
[08:48] <Soundless> but now it doesn't
[08:48] <ditoa> hello peoples
[08:49] <ditoa> i have the pictures online
[08:49] <ditoa> and they are at
[08:49] <kernel288> If it would, I wouldnt ask ;)
[08:49] <marcin> kernel288: Xyhthyx: yes, I meant I've used the safe graphic mode to install ubuntu (7.04)
[08:49] <gnomefreak> kernel288: what bittorrent app is it?
[08:49] <ubuntu__> hello, how write in terminal a command witch creates a folder with a date names
[08:49] <ditoa> http://homepage.ntlworld.com/deadmonkey/ubuntu
[08:49] <D2> I've heard that Nero can burn a boot CD uncorrectly
[08:49] <ditoa> they go in order from boot up
[08:49] <D2> you got a really strange problem
[08:49] <marcin> D2: I've used the CD ordered in the shipit
[08:50] <sharyari> you sure?
[08:50] <shinichizio> Hey, my windows are acting all screwy. I was recently asked (told rather) to fsck my drive and I may have done it wrong. How do I check for that?
[08:50] <kernel288> Its normal BitTorrent. Add/remove aplication says that its already installed but I  need the command to open It. BitTorrent.
[08:50] <Xyhthyx> marcin, booting feisty from your HD in normal mode doesn't show anything higher than 800x600?
[08:50] <gnomefreak> kernel288: gnome desktop?
[08:50] <ditoa> MTecknology: i put the picture online
[08:50] <kernel288> yeah.
[08:50] <MTecknology> ditoa, what's the link?
[08:50] <ditoa> http://homepage.ntlworld.com/deadmonkey/ubuntu
[08:50] <D2> marcin: and? what's the point?
[08:50] <fratermisc> shinichizio, probably best to do that from the livecd- would others here agree?
[08:51] <LordTureis> ditoa: have you checked the cd for defects?
[08:51] <ubuntu__> mkdir arch_`date'+%y-%m-%d`                              where is mistake?
[08:51] <marcin> talyes, 800x600 is the highest resolution I've got from the menu system --> preferences --> resolution
[08:51] <hammedhaaret__> Samus_Aran: ok.. wont disturbe you then... did i tell you that i really appreciate it?!?
[08:51] <kernel288> I also cant find it at applications at the main bar, you know.
[08:51] <ditoa> LordTureis: yup all 7 of them and they are all perfect
[08:51] <shinichizio> I can't use the CD, I don't have it and have no way to burn it.
[08:51] <marcin> Xyhthyx: ^^
[08:51] <Xyhthyx> marcin, are you perhaps using a widescreen monitor and an intel video chipset?
[08:51] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret__: it's no problem, I like to script.  it's just some stupid error .. um, just figured it out, I had mistyped the line in my /etc/fstab file when I was testing it, blah !
[08:51] <shinichizio> fratermisc: How do I got livecd-?
[08:51] <marcin> Xyhthyx: hm.. it's a laptop
[08:51] <Soundless> I got no clue what to do pff
[08:51] <ubuntu__> mkdir arch_`date'+%y-%m-%d`                              where is mistake?
[08:52] <Xyhthyx> marcin, Hmm well you can at least tell if it's widescreen ;p
[08:52] <neroahead> hi i want to burn a movie, i am usin nero linux how do i burn it
[08:52] <MTecknology> ditoa, I'm at work - i'll look at it in a second
[08:52] <Samus_Aran> hammedhaaret__: I'll just make sure it's working now, then send it to you
[08:52] <ditoa> kk
[08:52] <kernel288> So do you know to command for opening BitTorrent?
[08:52] <marcin> Xyhthyx: and it's intel.. I don't know how to check it's a widescreen :)
[08:52] <Xyhthyx> marcin, Well.. does it look wide? :D
[08:52] <Willbert> hey guys sorry for the long question but..
[08:53] <Willbert> ive been strugglin with this for a couple of days now, tried the forums and wiki/googled where i could but no joy... When i startup ubuntu i get an error (ACPI: unable to locate RSDP) i got thru the installation fine but when i boot up i just get a black screen. I can boot with the 'single' tag to get just a terminal but id like to get into the GUI! Can anyone help???
[08:53] <Xyhthyx> marcin, Anyways, try installing the 915resolution package: sudo apt-get install 915resolution
[08:53] <D2> Soundless: try forbidding booting from HDD and set booting from CD/DVD multiple times
[08:53] <Xyhthyx> If that doesn't help you can simply remove it.
[08:53] <isti> Hello are they other programs like gimp ??
[08:53] <Soundless> d2 you mean from bios?
[08:53] <D2> Soundless: yep
[08:53] <MTecknology> ditoa, It's definitely a driver problem... I'll try to find a fix that worked for me in a minute
[08:54] <Soundless> not really possible here they get auto-set I can only reorder them
[08:54] <marcin> Xyhthyx: no, it's not wide.. i've got a lot of free place up, down, left and right :)
[08:54] <ditoa> :) thanks
[08:54] <Xyhthyx> marcin, lol.
[08:54] <D2> then set HDD to the last position
[08:54] <shinichizio> Is there at least a proper guide to using fsck since nobody will tell me where to get this CD I need?
[08:54] <isti>  Hello are they other programs like gimp ?? (free programs pls)
[08:55] <isidoro> why ubuntu mount and umount automatically my usb disk??   it is a continuos loop
[08:55] <fratermisc> shinichizio, normally the installer cd is a live cd
[08:55] <D2> isti: just google it...
[08:55] <fratermisc> http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu
[08:55] <D2> isti: don't be so lazy
[08:55] <LordTureis> isti: krita, perhaps
[08:55] <dr5554> isti: yes CinePaint, mtPaint, jpaint
[08:55] <isti> thx
[08:55] <shinichizio> fratermisc: I'm starting at a disadvantage - I got this computer with Ubuntu installed already, and no CD. Thanks though
[08:56] <isti> where do I get google it
[08:56] <MTecknology> ditoa, what vid card did you say you had?
[08:56] <marcin> Xyhthyx: no more ideas?
[08:56] <D2> www.google.com
[08:56] <fratermisc> shinichizio, ahh, you can have a cd sent to you, but running fsck while you have a system running can be difficult to manage.
[08:56] <ditoa> nvidia 6800
[08:56] <ditoa> pci express
[08:56] <isti> oh
[08:56] <Jonah> can anyone please help me since upgrading to 4gb RAM ubuntu won't boot, although my simplymepis livecd works ok, but is slow
[08:56] <AJ_> Hi, everyone :)
[08:56] <dr5554> isti: try the repositories first
[08:56] <Xyhthyx> marcin, nope sorry. Have you tried searching ubuntuforums.org?
[08:57] <marcin> a little bit
[08:57] <nickrud> isti, you might like inkscape
[08:57] <shinichizio> fratermisc: I did it from the command line - I mounted it read-only like the big obvious warning text told me to do. Does that help?
[08:57] <Jazon> hi hi.  can i chat in here about the S$ patent claims?
[08:57] <Jazon> M$ i mean
[08:57] <isti> thx
[08:57] <isidoro> who help me
[08:57] <mjr> Jazon, no. #ubuntu-offtopic
[08:57] <fratermisc> shinichizio, okey doke. good.
[08:57] <bbrazil> Jazon: #ubuntu-offtopic. there's a debate warming up at the moment
[08:57] <Jazon> great thx mjr :-)
[08:57] <CheshireViking> !fsck > shinichizio , hope this helps
[08:57] <MTecknology> ditoa, try this http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[08:57] <scoobydoo28139> welp i goto go thanks all have a good day:)
[08:57] <marcin> i've seen there a topic about xorg.conf, but i've saw 1024x768 is a default resolution in there
[08:57] <gnomefreak> kernel288: try using gnome-btdownload
[08:58] <Xyhthyx> marcin, if previous posts didn't have an answer, open a new thread detailing the problem. Remember to include the brand/chipset if your video card.
[08:58] <shinichizio> !fsck
[08:58] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[08:58] <isidoro> CheshireViking: is not a problem of file system
[08:58] <AJ_> Can anyone tell me if there are NVIDIA drivers for Ubuntu 7.0.4 I just downloaded?
[08:58] <isidoro> is a mount and umount problem
[08:58] <D2> AJ: yes, but restricted
[08:58] <gnomefreak> yes there is AJ_
[08:58] <jjjj> hi
[08:58] <shinichizio> CheshireViking: Not so much, but thanks.
[08:58] <neroahead> hi is there any program to burn movies on ubuntu
[08:59] <isidoro> so ubuntu automatically umount and mount my disk... is a continuos
[08:59] <lumberjack> neroahead: yes
[08:59] <isidoro> my usb disk
[08:59] <CheshireViking> shinichizonio, no probs, I saw you ask for instructions  on using fsck, so just passed the link on
[08:59] <AJ_> D2: I'm not that familiar with Linux yet, can you tell me what that means?
[08:59] <boow> just installed nvidia driver on edgy with envy im trying to install audacious with projectm but can't find the gl libraries
[08:59] <neroahead> can u give me any names pls
[08:59] <zaggynl> neroahead, goto applications->add/remove
[09:00] <n2diy> Jonah:  run memtest, it should be one of the boot options on the live CD.
[09:00] <neroahead> yes i know that
[09:00] <hammedhaaret__> Samus_Aran: how will you send it? link?
[09:00] <neroahead> but what to download theere which programs
[09:00] <kernel288> it says that its not supported and so the host-based autentications is failed.
[09:00] <gnomefreak> !nvidia > AJ_   | AJ_ please read the pm you recieve from the bot
[09:00] <D2> AJ: Me 2. restricted means they are not free, but you can use them, don't worry
[09:00] <Xyhthyx> isidoro, only be worried if it's mounting/umounting by itself without you touching the usb drive.
[09:00] <neroahead> but what to download theere which programs
[09:00] <isidoro> Xyhthyx: yes that's the situation
[09:01] <Jonah> n2diy, memtest gives some errors, but i'm not convinced that there's any problems with my memory itself as the bios check is ok and mepis live disc boots, i think its ubuntu and something possibly to do with this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2653783
[09:01] <AJ_> D2: I downloaded drivers off the NVIDIA site, but they didn't work
[09:01] <Xyhthyx> isidoro, Ah.. then you should be worried. I don't have an answer unfortunately.
[09:01] <zlx> if i make KDE my default windows manager will it be just for that user or all users?
[09:01] <zafer> hey guys
[09:01] <AJ_> I ended up having to rollback (well, a friend did after I installed ssh)
[09:01] <zafer> i'm new to ubuntu
[09:01] <boow> where are the gl libraries located i think im using xorg 7.x
[09:01] <JRw> I have a new 500 GB Seagate external USB drive; I booted live Ubuntu 7.04 so I could test writing to the ntfs drive...  BUT it says only root can do it, and @#$@@% I don't know how to become root in ubuntu !
[09:01] <isidoro> Xyhthyx: windows is fine
[09:01] <neroahead> hello
[09:01] <zafer> i'm running edgy right now
[09:02] <zafer> i've gotten AIGLX and BEryl to work very nicely
[09:02] <T`> anyeone here have issues with WPA + feisty? seems to work rarely on my laptop (bcm43xx ndiswrapper drivers)
[09:02] <D2> no, you don't have to download any drivers, they are burned with the OS
[09:02] <D2> I mean with Ubuntu
[09:02] <zafer> i was wondering how i could install i guess any plugin for firefox that enables me to watch videos and flash stuff?
[09:02] <JRw> How can I open a file browser as root?
[09:02] <n2diy> Jonah:  Ok, I'm loading the forum info. now. The bios memory test isn't as complete as memtest, if memtest is showing errors, something is wrong.
[09:03] <zafer> can anyone help me?
[09:03] <Xyhthyx> isidoro, you can try System->Preferences->Removable Drives and Media. Turn off automounting.
[09:03] <Willbert> cananyone help with this error(ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP) and a black screen instead of GUI
[09:03] <preaction> JRw: in the live cd, doing "sudo -i" will put you into a root shell
[09:03] <zafer> i'm trying to get firefox to play streaming videos and all flash stuff?
[09:03] <D2> are you there, Soundless?
[09:03] <JRw> preaction, OK, thanks.  What about a gui browser?
[09:03] <boow> zafer, get a prog called automatix it does all that for you and more
[09:03] <preaction> JRw: sudo nautilus
[09:03] <JRw> preaction, Thank you!
[09:04] <danny> Sorry to interrupt but could anyone help me with an X issue?
[09:04] <LordTureis> I wouldn't use automatix.  it's screwed up enough ubuntu installs for me.
[09:04] <ditoa> btw i have two monitors connected, would that cause it to fcuk up?
[09:04] <preaction> !automatix | boow, zafer
[09:04] <ubotu> boow, zafer: 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

[09:06] <RawSewage> Im trying to install Ubuntu on my laptop, but it wont load the Installer.  my CD just keeps running, and the whole system grinds to a stop.  how can I install Ubuntu
[09:06] <Jazon> what is the channel for feisty fawn?

[09:06] <Jazon> nm
[09:06] <dn4> ok I want to install the very basic components of fiesty, just enough to get a console up with root access. From there I want to change my apt-get sources.list to ubuntustudio sources and build my system from there. Does anyone know of a minimalistic install cd for fiesty?
[09:07] <Willbert> Raw: are you using the live cd?
[09:07] <RawSewage> LordTureis, I think it's fairly fast.  Over 1 ghz anyway.  probably 1.7
[09:07] <n2diy> Jonah:  What where the memtest errors?
[09:07] <zafer> LordTureis, can you tell me how to do this through the terminal
[09:07] <ditoa> is there any way to "install" the nvidia drivers for the live cd?
[09:07] <LordTureis> dn4: install ubuntu sever edition and then go from there
[09:07] <Willbert> Raw: are you using the live cd?
[09:07] <RawSewage> yes
[09:07] <Willbert> Raw: download the alternative install CD from the ubuntu webby
[09:07] <RawSewage> I get as far as seeing the out line of the updater
[09:07] <D2>  ok guys, can anyone tell me, what version of glibc do I get with Feisty 7.04?
[09:07] <RawSewage> Willbert, what does that do
[09:07] <zafer> LordTureis, i already allowed the restricted stuff in /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:08] <Jonah> n2diy, it just looks like a load of numbers to me, doesnt really say anything
[09:08] <LordTureis> zafer: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-restricted-extras
[09:08] <Willbert> Raw: itll give you the option to install from boot time
[09:08] <RawSewage> Willbert, ok thx
[09:08] <Willbert> saving you laptops resources

[09:28] <Memories> im trying to set firestarter to start on boot
[09:28] <SoulRaven> ok.......sorry......a am new in this channel....
[09:28] <RawSewage> Firestarter is only a configuration tool
[09:28] <Memories> the manual asked me to edit /etc/sudoers
[09:28] <PriceChild> Memories, firestarter is always running... its just the gui client you want to appear?
[09:28] <RawSewage> You dont need to have Firestarter start on boot
[09:28] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: did the ifup/down stuff do any good?
[09:28] <kevin__> anyone know where i can find the windows driver for  Broadcom Corporation BCM4318.. I am trying to use ndiswrapper to setup my wireless
[09:28] <Memories> pricechild the thing is i installed using a normal username
[09:28] <RawSewage> Firestarter is just a config tool
[09:28] <Memories> so i think it only starts if i wanted it to start!
[09:28] <Memories> im not sure
[09:29] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: that will disconnect my IRC here, just a minute
[09:29] <RawSewage> you only need to run Firestarter once
[09:29] <Memories> each time i click on firestarter
[09:29] <PriceChild> Memories, firestarter is just a gui for the "iptables"
[09:29] <Memories> it asks me for a password
[09:29] <PriceChild> Memories, iptables is always running
[09:29] <RawSewage> no
[09:29] <preaction> Memories: of course, it's altering something important
[09:29] <dromer> PriceChild: I reinstalled the plugin using Synaptic, still doestn't work
[09:29] <Memories> pricechild , so you mean its running in the background!
[09:29] <RawSewage> Firestarter is a config tool for IP tables
[09:29] <zaggynl> I constantly get hit on port 36544 (firestarter), anyone knows what this means is?

[09:30] <RawSewage> what!?!?
[09:30] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: you'll want to do a 'dhclient eth0' after this is all done to fix it back up (or an up/down on eth0)

[09:37] <Jonah> and then some on the internet say it's not good to have 3 sticks in and faster to just have 2 sticks with less mem
[09:37] <askand> My laptop does a very high pitched sound when i charge it..is something on its way to broke?
[09:37] <cables> Nalleman, yep, deal with it or download it manually
[09:37] <Jonah> i'm mad and don't know where to turn

[09:37] <bbrazil> Jonah: sound like you have some bad ram
[09:37] <Hobbsee> Wavesonics: please read the topic, and dont paste in here.
[09:38] <Wavesonics> sorry
[09:38] <Jonah> looks like i might have to ebay 2 sticks of ram now, but i don't know
[09:38] <cjsoftuk_> I'm using ncpfs on Ubuntu Server, and I've found a bug, but I can't see a reason why or see who to contact to fix it
[09:38] <Jonah> bbrazil, yeah i just dunno - is it not efficient to use three sticks as it goes into single channel mode?

[09:38] <tim167> how do i list files with their complete paths ? i am looking at ls, but cant find a way to do it with that...
[09:39] <tonyr1988> Mitsuo: It has some different solutions.

[09:39] <rr_lap> what do i need to apt-get to have kde? kubuntu-dekstop?
[09:39] <nuln> piti
[09:39] <cables> rr_lap, yep
[09:39] <centrinel> rr_lap: yea
[09:39] <cables> rr_lap, but install it with Aptitude
[09:39] <ompaul> !fr | nuln
[09:39] <ubotu> nuln: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[09:39] <bbrazil> Jonah: what are you doing that's so memory intensive?
[09:39] <cables> rr_lap, that way when you remove it, all the crap goes too.
[09:39] <cables> rr_lap, command is: sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[09:39] <bbrazil> tim167: find
[09:39] <nuln> oups dsl :)
[09:39] <Wavesonics> here is the log file from X11: http://rafb.net/p/PC1mM211.html
[09:39] <centrinel> you can try kde-core too, a lightweight version of kubuntu
[09:39] <Mitsuo> tonyrl1988: ty, i will check it out..
[09:40] <tim167> bbrazil thanks
[09:40] <bbrazil> tim167: you may also want -maxdepth 1 and -ls
[09:40] <tonyr1988> Mitsuo: Sorry I can't help directly. I haven't had that problem with my processor (looks like that's the culprit)
[09:40] <a5benwillis> DO I have to do anything special to make a USB hard drive writable underUbuntu?
[09:40] <PriceChild> Wavesonics, its not moaning about the versions... its moaning that "GART is not initialised"
[09:40] <PriceChild> a5benwillis, depends how its formatted
[09:40] <cables> a5benwillis, you shouldn't have to...
[09:40] <RedRum> hey cables
[09:40] <Wavesonics> what is GART?
[09:40] <a5benwillis> I cant write and I cant change permissions.
[09:41] <PriceChild> Wavesonics, i don't know i'm afraid
[09:41] <RedRum> i found a picture of you, cables
[09:41] <cables> Wavesonics, are you talking about nVidia?

[09:41] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[09:41] <bbrazil> Jonah: in that case you need all the memory you can get
[09:42] <Wavesonics> how do I get my messages to stand out for the person I am typing them to like you guys do for me?
[09:42] <bbrazil> Wavesonics: username: message
[09:42] <Mitsuo> tonyrl1988: my cpu is pentium d 2.8 btw..
[09:42] <Wavesonics> ah, thx
[09:42] <ompaul> Wavesonics, a function of the client
[09:42] <cables> Wavesonics, put their nick in front of the message
[09:42] <Jonah> bbrazil, even though some people seem to think that three sticks of more memory is worse than two sticks of less, somthing to do with flicking into single channel mode??
[09:42] <Wavesonics> figured
[09:42] <tonyr1988> Wavesonics: If you're using XChat, it has tab-completion
[09:42] <Wavesonics> oh very nice!
[09:42] <tonyr1988> Wavesonics: Just type the first few letters of the person's name, and hit Tab.
[09:42] <cables> Everything has tab completion
[09:42] <cables> Even Gaim I think...
[09:42] <bbrazil> Jonah: the difference is not likely to be noticable, if you're worried benchmark your app
[09:43] <bbrazil> Jonah: discussion without data is pointless
[09:43] <tonyr1988> cables: Really? Didn't know about Gaim. How does that work?
[09:43] <Wavesonics> So does any one know exactly what GART is?
[09:43] <cables> tonyr1988, Gaim has terrible IRC support
[09:43] <riaal> I have a problem! My linux boot up looks strange (splash screen) and when I press Ctrl+alt+F1 to open a terminal the screen turns gray  for some sec and then the monitor shuts down.. it has worked befor, I don't remeber doing anything that could mess this up =S
[09:43] <bbrazil> Jonah: if you really care about speed, you shouldn't use a virtual machine
[09:43] <cables> Wavesonics, are you tlaking about nVidia?
[09:43] <tonyr1988> cables: Oh, gotcha. I was thinking tab-completion for normal IMming. :) DIdn't see how that would be beneficial. Gotcha!
[09:43] <ompaul> riaal, failing hardware?
[09:43] <Wavesonics> cables, no, ATI
[09:44] <cables> Wavesonics, oh, ok, nvm then
[09:44] <Wavesonics> damn :/
[09:44] <anna123> ma qualche italiano ce qu

[09:44] <ompaul> !it | anna123
[09:44] <ubotu> anna123: Vai su #ubuntu-it o su #kubuntu-it se vuoi parlare in italiano, in questo canale usiamo solo l'inglese. Grazie!
[09:44] <Jonah> bbrazil, so basically it' s not gonna be that noticeable really and is better to just have more ram?
[09:44] <sacater> hey, can anyone tell how I keep networking active, but disable wireless, so always off, even after reboot
[09:44] <bbrazil> Jonah: in general, yes
[09:44] <anna123> a scusate
[09:44] <bbrazil> !it | anna123
[09:44] <riaal> ompaul, sound strange, have a really ubuntu-overkill hardware setup.. what do you think is the problem then? graphic card?
[09:45] <rr_lap> all i need to apt-get is kubuntu-desktop to install kde right?
[09:45] <bbrazil> rr_lap: yip
[09:45] <kbrooks> I'd like to clear out all packages that DO NOT have a (in)direct dependence on ubuntu-desktop
[09:45] <ompaul> riaal, na it just reaches other parts of hardware - try a couple of live cds first
[09:45] <sacater> nope
[09:45] <ompaul> kbrooks, you telling me you don't know how to do that with your skills?
[09:45] <bbrazil> kbrooks: you'll also want anything depended on by ubuntu-standard and ubuntu-minimal
[09:46] <kbrooks> bbrazil, ok, that too
[09:46] <bbrazil> kbrooks: and linux-386 iirc
[09:46] <kbrooks> bbrazil, *sigh* and that too. but how do i do that?
[09:46] <riaal> ompaul, hm, strange
[09:46] <MaDiNfO_> hi
[09:46] <MaDiNfO_> foes anyone knows
[09:47] <MaDiNfO_> hi does last kubuntu
[09:47] <bbrazil> kbrooks: unless you're really tight on space I woulnd't bother. You're more likely to break somethign than anything else
[09:47] <MaDiNfO_> doesnt turn of  when we told himto do it ?
[09:47] <kbrooks> bbrazil, okay
[09:47] <centrinel> ubuntu-minimal huh? what if i already on ubuntu-desktop. must have to remove ubuntu-desktop first or just install ubuntu-minimal ?
[09:47] <bbrazil> kbrooks: the generic answers are deborphan and debfoster, don't know how they translate to ubuntu meta packages
[09:47] <kbrooks> centrinel, it was to me, not you
[09:48] <centrinel> i am ask everyone on here. can you answer me?
[09:48] <Jonah> bbrazil, ok i've tried booting with 3 sticks in but my system is ok for a bit then will just lock up, been swapping mem modules around to try isolate a bad one but can't seem to....
[09:48] <Blazingazn> Hey
[09:48] <bbrazil> Jonah: try one at a time and memtest86
[09:48] <Blazingazn> Anyone willing to help a noob lol
[09:48] <bbrazil> Jonah: should be a boot option, if not it's on the livecd
[09:48] <|ericsson|> Any hints to what cause the GUI nfts-configuration not to start?
[09:48] <bbrazil> !ask | Blazingazn
[09:48] <ubotu> Blazingazn: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:48] <Blazingazn> Alright =P
[09:48] <Blazingazn> Well im try to partition
[09:48] <Blazingazn> And i dual booted before
[09:49] <Blazingazn> But i recovered my windows
[09:49] <Blazingazn> And now im missing half my HD
[09:49] <ompaul> !enter Blazingazn
[09:49] <ompaul> !enter |  Blazingazn
[09:49] <ubotu> Blazingazn: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:49] <tim167> what sign do i put between two commands if i want the second one to wait for the first one to finish ? was it  "&&" or "&" ?
[09:49] <Blazingazn> How do i move unallocated memory to my main local disk c
[09:49] <centrinel> &&
[09:50] <tim167> thanks centrinel
[09:50] <Puppy_> I want to buy a sip phone that works in ubuntu. Is there any easy way to check if it will work? I want one like this: http://cgi.ebay.com/PHILIPS-VOIP3211-Internet-DECT-phone-Retail-VOIP3211_W0QQitemZ280103585686QQcmdZViewItem
[09:51] <bbrazil> tim167: ;
[09:51] <Blazingazn> I'm using partitionmagic anybody know how to nove unallocated memory and join it with another primary like local disk C for windows
[09:51] <bbrazil> tim167: assuming you don't care about the exit status of the first command
[09:51] <centrinel> get gparted if you sucks with cli
[09:51] <foxiness> if i have editor x what i get form 3rd party,and this package 'deb' now update with new ver when now i want to install new one ,this i will act like an update/upagrde,or i need to remove the old ver first ?
[09:51] <ompaul> Blazingazn, that is a partition magic question not a ubuntu question we would not support it here
[09:51] <tim167> bbrazil ok cool then i can use that
[09:51] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: well, you were right about dhclient, there are two of them running, one on eth0 and one on eth1
[09:51] <SoulRaven> i got this error....when i boot from cd........"Some Things, such as theme, sounds or background setting may not work correctly" GNOME........etc....help....
[09:52] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: any idea why it has a dhclient running on a static device ?
[09:52] <Blazingazn> Trying to repartition though
[09:52] <Wavesonics> i hate ATI for linux :(
[09:52] <Xyhthyx> foxiness, you can install it without removing the old one.
[09:52] <ompaul> Blazingazn, it does not come with ubuntu so how weould we know :)
[09:52] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: you were messing around with your config?
[09:52] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: /sbin/dhclient -1 -lf /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth1.leases -pf /var/run/dhclient.eth1.pid -q -e dhc_dbus=31 -d eth1
[09:52] <Wavesonics> I've tried everything in the world. DRI just wont work :(
[09:52] <Blazingazn> I want to join unallocated memory to a primary so i can repartitonj and re dual boot ubuntu
[09:52] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: I have done ifdown -a since then, shouldn't that have closed any dhclients ?
[09:52] <foxiness> Xyhthyx: k then it will replace the old one ?
[09:52] <Xyhthyx> foxiness, yes.
[09:53] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: I will try killing it off and then down and upping both of them and seeing if the problem reappears or is gone for good =)
[09:53] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: not nessecarily
[09:53] <foxiness> Xyhthyx: thanks a lot :)
[09:53] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: thanks for your help
[09:53] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: if it think the interface is already down, it won't do anything
[09:53] <ompaul> Blazingazn, the ui for that program was easy 6 years ago when I last used it and we don't do it here no idea where you would get help for it
[09:53] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: -a is a tad dangerous due to that
[09:53] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: eth1 and eth0 are both ifup'ed
[09:54] <techjim> Hi room.  my kiba-dock makes 1/4th of my desktop black.  Any solutions?
[09:55] <LordTureis> techjim: you're running beryl or compiz, right?
[09:56] <techjim> LordTureis: Neither.  Do I need them?  My ole tnt m64 had some complications with beryl.  Is compiz more stable?
[09:56] <m1r> ubuntu 7.04, upgrade: change config file /etc/login.defs ???
[09:57] <beni_> how to compare two files?
[09:57] <beni_> i mean show differences between them

[10:00] <Gabber836> Test
[10:00] <stifler> does anyone have the MUSIC BOX mp3 player?by telesystem
[10:00] <PriceChild> !offtopic | stifler
[10:00] <LordTureis> techjim: yes, you need one of them.  I'm not sure if one is more stable than the other, though.  There still seems to be some debate on that.  It seems to vary from computer to computer.   though on a tnt m64?  I'm not sure either beryl or compiz will run on that.
[10:00] <ubotu> stifler: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:01] <stifler> but...it's interest of everybody. it's a non supported mp3..(for now)
[10:01] <mao_> is there a driver for my s3 trio 64 3d video card that will run opengl at an acceptable speed?
[10:02] <techjim> LordTureis: Believe it or not, the card is on the official list of supported cards, although I've spent a couple hours on the beryl boards
[10:02] <techjim> LordTureis: What about xcompmgr?  Will that composition manager work?
[10:02] <Rictoo|SLP> How would I get Ubuntu to redetect my monitor?
[10:03] <rasmus_> When I try to play a DVD in Totem, it says that some plugins are missing - where do I find these plugins?
[10:03] <rellik> I have been doing some setup on my fiesty and now when I reboot it stops on the black "ubuntu" loading screen, with the progess bar about at 50%
[10:03] <centrinel> rasmus_: you can find it by synaptic
[10:03] <centrinel> just my suggestion. like i did before. another is using apt-cache or aptitude
[10:04] <rasmus_> centrinel: thanks, but I've allready tried, but I can't seem to find it- do you you by any chance know the name of the package?
[10:04] <tomy-burn> hi i have a file.avi i want to burn it, can i burn it and see it on my dvd
[10:04] <Gabber921> .
[10:04] <LordTureis> techjim: sry, I don't know for sure, but http://www.kiba-dock.org/components/com_mambowiki/index.php?title=Installing_Kiba-Dock seems to indicate that xcompmgr would work
[10:04] <blueflops> Hi guys, anyone here knows a way to create a bootable floppy with ubuntu inside, to fix some configuration in ubuntu which made it unbootable? (no cd-rom, so I can't use the livecd)
[10:04] <centrinel> no~ sorry.
[10:04] <techjim> LordTureis: oh nice thanks for that link.
[10:05] <blueflops> Or know of a good linux floppy distro for this?
[10:05] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: okay, so something screwy is going on.  I ifdown'ed everything, then closed the dhclient on eth1, as it had been left behind.  then I ifup'ed lo eth0 eth1, and it seemed fine, only dhclient on eth0 as it should be
[10:05] <rellik> I have been doing some setup on my fiesty and now when I reboot it stops on the black "ubuntu" loading screen, with the progess bar about at 50%..  any ideas how to figure out what's wrong?
[10:05] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: but then ten seconds later, dhclient was running on eth1 as well, removing the IP for it
[10:05] <BU_> Hi guys, my system hangs up after choosing any option from the ubuntu`s menu when I boot from ubuntu`s dick, what can you say about this?
[10:05] <centrinel> i got a problem where i cant play wmv file and solved after installing klmcodec. hehe, and thats a different situation isn't,
[10:06] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: the eth0 that is supposed to have DHCP has this process running: dhclient3 -pf /var/run/dhclient.eth0.pid -lf /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth0.leases eth0
[10:06] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: looks about right
[10:06] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: and the one that isn't supposed to be running has: /sbin/dhclient -1 -lf /var/lib/dhcp3/dhclient.eth1.leases -pf /var/run/dhclient.eth1.pid -q -e dhc_dbus=31 -d eth1
[10:06] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: that's the phantom process that keeps respawning out of nowhere
[10:07] <mao_> blueflops: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[10:07] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: what's its PPID?
[10:07] <tomy-burn> hi i have a file.avi i want to burn it, can i burn it and see it on my dvd
[10:07] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: one sec, checking ..
[10:07] <mao_> blueflops: worked for me
[10:07] <TabulaRasa_> hello. i need a small kick in the ass to come to a solution with ubuntu feisty fawn. its running on a notebook with internal cardreader, and everything works fine, as long as the card is inside of that reader while booting. is there any GUI for mountin / unmounting cards?
[10:08] <Milage> Hi guys
[10:08] <Milage> Are there plugins for Amarok that enables me to play midi files?
[10:08] <Milage> And/or other less common format
[10:08] <Milage> formats*
[10:09] <dyrne> TabulaRasa_: can you unplug/replug the card and then dmesg | tail   does sda or sdb or whatever show up?
[10:09] <TabulaRasa_> lemme test it.
[10:09] <LuisGMarine> Hello, I created a custom partition for my music, but when I try to save files to it, it says that it can't find it, even though its listed as a partition
[10:10] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: its parent is: /usr/sbin/dhcdbd --system
[10:10] <dyrne> LuisGMarine: is it formatted and mounted?  try 'mount' command
[10:10] <TabulaRasa_> now, thats funny. now that i booted with the card inside, i can unplug it and plug it in again.
[10:10] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: I am not too sure where that program is coming from, it's something about dbus
[10:10] <TabulaRasa_> before, i plugged it in and nothing happened.
[10:10] <dyrne> LuisGMarine: if so its just a problem with write access
[10:10] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: that's beyond my knowledge then
[10:10] <dyrne> TabulaRasa_: ive heard people report similar thing but never ran into it myself
[10:11] <TabulaRasa_> hmmmmm.
[10:11] <Samus_Aran> the apt-cache search says "D-Bus interface to the ISC DHCP client"
[10:11] <TabulaRasa_> first i thought my card reader maybe isnt supported, now this teaches me better.
[10:11] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: I will try apt-get removing it and see what happens =)
[10:12] <BU_> Did somebody experience the same problem as mine?
[10:12] <Milage> Does any of you know if there is a midi plugin for amarok?
[10:12] <TabulaRasa_> okay, at least now i know a workaround, thats better than nothing. thanks for the hint with just trying it :)
[10:12] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: probably a bad idea. dbus is heavily integrated into gnome
[10:12] <TabulaRasa_> in the future i will always boot with a card in the slot ^^
[10:12] <dyrne> TabulaRasa_: :)
[10:12] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: yeah, darn.  it tells me it will have to remove: network-manager network-manager-gnome
[10:12] <nolan_> does anyone know how to set the default programs for specific file extensions?
[10:12] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: perhaps there is a setting in network-manager which is overriding /etc/network/interfaces
[10:13] <Samus_Aran> I figured they would use the same config.  not smart to have two separate network configurations
[10:13] <Samus_Aran> nolan_: in which file manager ?
[10:14] <nolan_> what do you mean?
[10:14] <nolan_> sorry, i am new to ubuntu
[10:14] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: this is why I use network/interfaces and wpa_supplicant :)
[10:14] <Samus_Aran> nolan_: e.g. Nautilus is the default for Gnome
[10:14] <nolan_> oh, okay
[10:14] <eden> hiya. I got a question, how can I overide the 'panel size' detected by the nv drivers? Currently it is detecting the wrong panel size (too small!)
[10:14] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: I think a dpkg-reconfigure network-manager will let you diable it
[10:14] <Samus_Aran> bbrazil: I will try that out, thanks
[10:15] <nolan_> i believe thats what i use.  it says that when i boot
[10:15] <data> hi. i am installing (k)ubuntu for a few friends of mine here. problem: A proxy
[10:15] <data> apt tries to honor http_proxy but fails blatantly
[10:15] <data> saying: "can't connect to 3128:80"
[10:16] <bbrazil> data: I'd suggest disconnecting the network during the install (assuming fomr cd)
[10:16] <data> probably mistaking it for some kind of ipv6-address
[10:16] <Samus_Aran> nolan_: in Nautilus, you just right-click on a file, then select "Open with other application"
[10:16] <data> bbrazil: well, i installed it using some vpn tricks
[10:16] <nolan_> oh, okay.  will it set it as the default then?
[10:16] <zabin> hey
[10:16] <Samus_Aran> nolan_: then you choose the program from the list, or if it isn't in the list, type in the name in the bottom.  there should be a checkbox for "always use this type" or something at the bottom
[10:16] <data> but now i can't update in kde cause adept doesn't honor any proxy-settings
[10:16] <bbrazil> data: put the proxy stuff in apt.conf
[10:16] <nolan_> oh, okay.  thanks a ton Samus_Aran
[10:17] <bbrazil> data: don't bother with any gui tools, they won't work
[10:17] <Samus_Aran> nolan_: welcome

[10:21] <tomy-burn> hi i have a file.avi i want to burn it, can i burn it and see it on my dvd

[10:22] <usamahashimi> can anyone guide me that how can i enable dma?
[10:22] <fraggle_> !ssh
[10:22] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[10:22] <tomy-burn> i burned as data my dvd player did not played
[10:22] <Milage> You can only play an AVI file on your DVD player if it supports divx or xvid

[10:22] <subdub> hi
[10:22] <dfgas> !ati
[10:22] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[10:23] <subdub> anyone knows how I could select the digital audio output with ALSA ?
[10:23] <usamahashimi> !hdparm
[10:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hdparm - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:23] <JP_P_home> ok thanks
[10:23] <subdub> (on th eps3)
[10:23] <tomy-burn> no my dvd player does not play divx
[10:23] <LjL> !info hdparm > usamahashimi
[10:23] <tomy-burn> does this mean it will not play .avi files
[10:23] <Samus_Ar1n> bbrazil: well, that was the problem ... gnome-network-manager has its own configuration settings for the network, it doesn't use /etc/network/interfaces directly ... >:-|
[10:23] <Milage> tomy-burn: avi files use several different codecs
[10:23] <Milage> usually, they are using the divx or xvid codec
[10:23] <RichiH> Samus_Aran: hi
[10:23] <dtrump> hey
[10:24] <RichiH> Samus_Aran: sorry for that, i am about to write email, too
[10:24] <Milage> if your DVD player cannot play either of these, it would be hard for you to make it work
[10:24] <tomy-burn> so what to do to be able to burn it and play it on my dvd player
[10:24] <dtrump> dunno
[10:24] <usamahashimi> LjL: thanks but how can i enable it permanently?
[10:24] <tomy-burn> do i need to convert this file
[10:24] <Milage> You would need to convert it to the DVD video format
[10:24] <Milage> I'm not sure what kind of program could do this, sorry
[10:24] <JP_P_home> LjL> what kind of bot is ubotu ?
[10:24] <tomy-burn> so is there any program on ubuntu i can download and convert this file
[10:24] <bbrazil> Samus_Aran: if you're still around in 12hours ask me again. I have the answer in work
[10:25] <SnapLin> lol i chuckleat your bann .....u sux
[10:25] <PriceChild> JP_P_home, supybot
[10:25] <JP_P_home> no ?
[10:25] <usamahashimi> !dma
[10:25] <ubotu> dma is Direct Memory Access/Addressing. It makes hard disks & optical drives transfer data faster, and is almost always enabled in Ubuntu 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DMA
[10:25] <Lacrymology> hey, does anyone here have uberyl working?
[10:25] <JP_P_home> so i will work again on mine :)
[10:25] <SnapLin> cmon bann me] 
[10:25] <Milage> Simply converting the file isn't enough, I think. It needs to be written to the DVD in a special way
[10:25] <Samus_Aran> RichiH: do you mean about gnome-network-manager, or did I miss something when I disconnected ?
[10:25] <NekoSensei> hi room
[10:25] <SnapLin> more banns loil
[10:25] <tomy-burn> so is there any program on ubuntu i can download and convert this file
[10:25] <LjL> usamahashimi: i think /etc/hdparm.conf, but not entirely sure. there used to be a /etc/default/hdparm, but i don't seem to have that in feisty
[10:25] <dfgas> how do i get accerated drivers for a ati 7200 aio
[10:26] <Milage> tomy-burn: a quick search on synaptic gave me a result that might do the job
[10:26] <usamahashimi> LjL: do i have to add hdparm in system startup?
[10:26] <Samus_Aran> PriceChild: if someone is doing ban evasion, muting them works way, way better than a ban.  bans encourage them to come back, muting makes them feel sad, heh
[10:27] <Milage> search for dvd creator, and you should get it
[10:27] <tomy-burn> ok what did u search for
[10:27] <Lacrymology> or beryl on gnome, it should be the same
[10:27] <Milage> "dvd creator"
[10:27] <apollonius> hello, i'm playing with feisty livecd on a macbook...i think it got my resolution wrong, how can i be sure and fix?
[10:27] <LjL> usamahashimi: i don't know what you mean
[10:27] <Milage> it claims to be able to create DVDs out of avi and mpeg files
[10:27] <NekoSensei> I've tried to install netbeans, but give me some errors with ubuntu 7.04. some one had install it?
[10:27] <Milage> oh, mov files too
[10:28] <tomy-burn> whats the name of program
[10:28] <isidoro> hi
[10:28] <Milage> "Video DVD creator"
[10:28] <apollonius> hello, i'm playing with feisty livecd on a macbook...i think it got my resolution wrong, how can i be sure and fix?
[10:28] <usamahashimi> LjL: i check the file /etc/hdparm there are some settings about dma there but do i have to put hdparm in system startup so that everytime system starts, it automatically enables dma?
[10:29] <apollonius> screen resolution app doesn't list my native resolution
[10:29] <apollonius> xorg.conf blows my mind ;-)
[10:29] <Puppy_> I checked: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport  Is there another hardware compatibility web site I can check? (I have checked the Linux questions one already and it does not let me search the way I want to. What I am looking for is a SIP phone compatible with Ubuntu)
[10:29] <subdub> anyone hows to select audio output with alsa ?
[10:29] <subdub> I'd like to use the digital audio output of my sound card
[10:29] <mneten> apollonius: not sure how it works on a macbook, but my install wouldn't even let me use 1280x1024 until i installed drivers for my graphics card...
[10:29] <|ericsson|> would this be classed as ban-abuse? ;)
[10:30] <kbrooks> |ericsson|, dont question ops
[10:30] <apollonius> mneten: i imagine drivers are installed since compiz works fine
[10:30] <kbrooks> |ericsson|, you arent allowed to
[10:30] <SlimG> How do i detect what values I can supply to the "vga=" kernel parameter? so I can find the correct value for 1280x800 (widescreen), vga=ask doesn't mention resolutions
[10:30] <atomikuXP> I am currently logged into XFCE on ubuntu and I want to be able to get on this logged in desktop through VNC.. at the moment it's not working, just takes me to a white/black screen when I try to VNC into it
[10:30] <Samus_Aran> apollonius: the first screen on the startup of the livecd has an option to change the resolution
[10:31] <mneten> apollonius: have you checked the system>pref>screen res ? :)
[10:31] <kodge> Hi guys. ive recently just installed WINE. Now that ive installed wine im not 100% sure how to open the .exe file? I was wondering if someone could help...?
[10:31] <Samus_Aran> apollonius: F5 or something like that
[10:31] <PriceChild> kbrooks, please don't... it was in good jest and i enjoyed the comment :)
[10:31] <apollonius> mneten: yes
[10:31] <|ericsson|> kbrooks: I wouldn't want to question their authority since I've got no problems with them since they are doing what they are supposed to..
[10:31] <mneten> rad. i'm a n00b so i dont really know where else to look :)
[10:31] <apollonius> Samus_Aran, thanx...so just restart and hold f5?
[10:31] <Samus_Aran> SlimG: vga=ask is only for text mode.  for graphics mode, it depends on which Linux framebuffer driver you are using
[10:31] <kimiks> scusate come faccio ad andare al canale in italiano di ubuntu
[10:31] <kodge> Hi guys. ive recently just installed WINE. Now that ive installed wine im not 100% sure how to open the .exe file? I was wondering if someone could help...?

[10:33] <kodge> WoW.exe, those who are not familiar, its a vidoe game
[10:33] <SlimG> Samus_Aran: Could you tell me what to do to get correct boot resolution? (got ubuntu feisty)
[10:33] <kodge> Video*
[10:33] <|ericsson|> kodge: wine has support for WoW, don't worry :)
[10:33] <Samus_Aran> SlimG: you need to read the documentation for the kernel, or guess.  read the files in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/fb I think it is
[10:33] <pyrops> what does .. extension "XFree86-DRI" missing on display ":0.0".
[10:33] <pyrops>  .. mean??
[10:33] <Samus_Aran> SlimG: it has a list of the modes, at least for vesafv
[10:33] <kdub432_> right. wine is *supposed to be able to do world of warcraft....make sure your video is set up right though
[10:33] <Samus_Aran> *vesafb
[10:34] <cjae> need to find more damn small linux and puppy linux channels
[10:34] <Samus_Aran> SlimG: if you're using nvidia framebuffer or something else, you need to find the documentation for that specific kernel module
[10:34] <kdub432_> i've never had much luck with wine and 3d applications... (thx ati..... haha)
[10:34] <kodge> Ericsson: Well I just tried what you told me to do. and well, it didnt work, it said wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\WoW.exe": Module not found, but looking at this, its looking in the wrong palce
[10:34] <cjae> noob @ irc
[10:34] <Samus_Aran> SlimG: you may need to install kernel documentation to have that file, or view it on a web page
[10:34] <albert> guys i'm having some dificulties trying to set my screen resolutions, i read on the forums there i could edit it, but i'm not too sure where to find the refresh rate of my monitor, i assume that the refresh rates for my monitor are the synchronization range but i'm not completely sure can someone confirm this for me?
[10:34] <Blazingazn> What software should i use to put the ubuntu.iso to a CD
[10:34] <askand> Can anyone look at this graph over my batterytime and try to figure out what happens?
[10:34] <askand> http://askar.freehostia.com/okng.png
[10:35] <ompaul> Blazingazn,  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto
[10:35] <subdub> anyone hows to select audio output with alsa ?
[10:35] <Samus_Aran> albert: monitors have two main settings: horizontal sync and vertical refresh rates
[10:35] <SlimG> thanks Samus_Aran, I'll look into it
[10:35] <kodge> Ericsson: Well I just tried what you told me to do. and well, it didnt work, it said wine: could not load L"c:\\windows\\system32\\WoW.exe": Module not found, but looking at this, its looking in the wrong palce
[10:35] <Samus_Aran> albert: you can read your manual or go to the manufacturer's web site to get these values.  however, most modern monitors automatically communicate this information to the computer when X loads up
[10:36] <Samus_Aran> albert: the monitor needs to be turned on for this communication to happen, so don't boot up with the monitor still off
[10:36] <Samus_Aran> albert: also, Ubuntu might have filled in its own values that could be incorrect.  look in the X config file: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:37] <Samus_Aran> albert: it will be found in: Section "Monitor"
[10:37] <Samus_Aran> albert: for example I have these two lines in that section: "HorizSync    31.469 - 79.976" and "VertRefresh  56.250 - 75.062"
[10:38] <kodge> I was wondering if anyone would be kind enough to help. Ive set up wine e.t.c and its working. Although when I type wine wow.exe it doesnt work. Its looking in the completely wrong folder. I was wondering if anyone knew how to make it change to the correct foldeR?

[10:45] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe

[10:45] <SirSteven> !worksforme
[10:46] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.

[10:49] <d2812> Can anybody here watch video on the BBC website in ubuntu?
[10:49] <SlimeyPete> Lacrymology: did you format it? If so, it might have been formatted as ext3 instead of FAT.
[10:49] <yeniklasor> hi, when was the latest ubuntu feisty update? I didn't see any update after when I upgrade the feisty. Am I wrong something?
[10:50] <Lacrymology> SlimeyPete, no, I haven't
[10:50] <SlimeyPete> yeniklasor: I haven't noticed any updates since release
[10:50] <Lacrymology> Just plugged it in
[10:50] <yeniklasor> OK thanks
[10:50] <Lacrymology> it works as a flash memory, of course. Just the display stays dead and whatnot
[10:51] <XLV> Lacrymology, if it has a removable battery, try removing it and reinstalling it
[10:51] <rene> hello, can somebody says me how I can extend the run command dialog in gnome?
[10:51] <apollonius> hi, how does one change resolution in feisty livecd? system/preferences/screen resolution does not offer me my native widescreen resolution
[10:52] <smith> xorg.config should solve your problem
[10:52] <yeniklasor> And I want to boot my server to linux, can I manage it with remote desktop? Or only can I do ssh?
[10:52] <apollonius> xorg.conf blows my mind
[10:52] <Lacrymology> XLV, what would that accomplish?
[10:52] <Lacrymology> I think I need a firmware update or something like that.
[10:52] <smith> but im guessing a rebott will cause the system not to work .. so ..
[10:52] <XLV> Lacrymology, resetting the device
[10:53] <smith> reboot*
[10:53] <Samus_Aran> kodge: are you still stuck ?
[10:53] <Samus_Aran> kodge: winecfg will run the WINE setup program
[10:53] <Samus_Aran> kodge: and you need to keep in mind that all the windows programs need to be inside your virtual C drive, usually ~/.wine/drive_c or else look in ~/.wine/dosdevices/c:/
[10:53] <smith> maby by reseting X
[10:53] <nickrud> apollonius, I'd say you out of luck on the live cd; you can't edit xorg.conf and restart X. on it.
[10:54] <smith> ah
[10:54] <apollonius> can't restart X from livecd?
[10:54] <nickrud> apollonius, if my experience is still valid ;)
[10:54] <smith> oh X is started allright
[10:54] <Samus_Aran> kodge: if you want to run a Windows program from outside that folder, you can symlink to it, or add another drive in ~/.wine/dosdevices/ to point to the folder where your files are
[10:55] <Samus_Aran> kodge: for example, to add a D: drive you could do: ln -s /mnt/windows/games/wow ~/.wine/dosdevices/d:
[10:55] <Lacrymology> and.. why doesn't my ubuntu play mp3? Is it normal for default install not to be able to play mp3 OR wav files?
[10:56] <Samus_Aran> Lacrymology: MP3, yes.  WAV, no.
[10:56] <nickrud> !restricted
[10:56] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[10:56] <Samus_Aran> at least I've never heard of any WAV file issues before
[10:57] <crevette> hi there
[10:57] <Lacrymology> Samus_Aran, yes what? yes is it normal for it *not* to work?
[10:57] <Samus_Aran> Lacrymology: correct
[10:58] <crevette> I'm running gutsy, and it seems that my second drive (sdb1) is viewed like my first
[10:58] <atomikuXP> I am currently logged into XFCE on ubuntu and I want to be able to get on this logged in desktop through VNC.. at the moment it's not working, just takes me to a white/black screen when I try to VNC into it
[10:58] <Lacrymology> Samus_Aran, still not playing .wav s
[10:58] <crevette> from the disk tools it has the same partitions (where it has not)
[10:58] <Lacrymology> meh, the whole having linux without internet is quite a pain
[10:58] <Samus_Aran> Lacrymology: MP3 unfortunately has patents, and many GNU/Linux distros don't like preinstalling it, as their is the risk of a lawsuit.  just view the URL above, it tells you how to add all sorts of restricted formats like RealMedia, WindowsMedia and MP3
[10:58] <FarrisG>  Grub is booting from a boot partition that, for some reason, I can't figure out how to read once the kernel has booted. This box was originally a CentOS box with a software RAID, and one partition of the first drive not raided for boot. But Ubuntu was installed onto the re-formatted partitions, left as is, and now I cannot install grub. The old CentOS Grub is still there and will actually boot the Ubuntu root, with the old CentOS kernel. But once don
[10:58] <Samus_Aran> Lacrymology: you don't have Internet why ?
[10:59] <shadeofgrey> damnit to hell -- i cant stand not having ubuntu
[10:59] <Samus_Aran> s/their/there/
[10:59] <Samus_Aran> shadeofgrey: so get ubuntu ?
[10:59] <shadeofgrey> somebody has to talk me through how to install it onnmy macbookpro
[10:59] <Lacrymology> Samus_Aran, because I live in a 3rd world country and internet connection is not completely out of league, but not in my basic needs list
[10:59] <Lacrymology> getting a connection soon, tho
[11:00] <Samus_Aran> Lacrymology: so how are you on the Internet right now ?
[11:00] <Samus_Aran> Lacrymology: school ?
[11:00] <shadeofgrey> i cant stand being ubuntuless for another second
[11:00] <Samus_Aran> shadeofgrey: that looked disturbingly close to buttless
[11:00] <apollonius> can someone remind me where xorg.conf lives?
[11:00] <PriceChild> apollonius, /etc/X11
[11:00] <Samus_Aran> apollonius: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:00] <PriceChild> apollonius, case sensitive ;)
[11:00] <apollonius> thanx pricechild
[11:01] <Samus_Aran> apollonius: in future if you forget where something is, a good way to search for it is: locate xorg.conf
[11:01] <kaukx> are there any good LAN chat software for linux ?
[11:01] <smith> wall
[11:01] <apollonius> Samus_Aran: thanx...will remember
[11:01] <smith> just type wall
[11:02] <ubuntu> Hey, I have linux live CD running on an HP laptop. I mounted the windows drive with read only permissions, then i hooked up an external firewire drive that I want to backup the windows files to. However, ubuntu (6.06) is mounting the drive with only read permissions and I don't know how to change that
[11:02] <FarrisG> Is there any way from the grub command line to tell exactly what partition grub is being run from?
[11:02] <Samus_Aran> ubuntu: which filesystem ?
[11:02] <Samus_Aran> FarrisG: when grub starts, pressing E will edit the command line used
[11:03] <apollonius> how do i restart X, if it doesn't restart because it's a livecd then oh well
[11:03] <Samus_Aran> FarrisG: it will have the (hd0,0) or whatever it is in that line, read from the menu.lst file
[11:03] <albert> alright i tested the x server and it worked fine
[11:03] <pokerface> hey can someone help me with something quick? i want to add stuff to the computer://
[11:04] <Samus_Aran> albert: did you restart the X server to use the new settings now ?
[11:04] <Samus_Aran> albert: (log out then Ctrl+Alt+Backspace on the login screen to reload it)
[11:04] <shadeofgrey> i dont understand something
[11:04] <dope> i have a laptop have I have the server edition running on. how do I get the card reader to work?
[11:04] <oxy-cotton-ball> !botsnack
[11:04] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[11:04] <albert> alright
[11:04] <dak> anyone know why some realmedia files play in ubuntu 64 and some done? the files work fine on my other debian box that is 32 bit...
[11:05] <albert> be right back
[11:05] <shadeofgrey> if macs are nothing more than PC's with a better OS then why is installation of ubuntu not as painless as installing it onmy dads dell
[11:05] <shadeofgrey> ?
[11:05] <mads-> I just installed xubuntu on top of normal ubuntu (sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop). Internet just won't work from scratch. What to do?? :S
[11:05] <PriceChild> mads-, you're not telling us something.
[11:05] <Samus_Aran> dope: if you're not in X with automatic tools, you just need to mount it as a hard drive
[11:05] <Samus_Aran> dope: it will show up as a SCSI hard drive, usually with VFAT filesystem
[11:05] <mads-> PriceChild: What do you mean?
[11:05] <PriceChild> mads-, do you normally connect using the network manager applet?
[11:05] <ElectricMonk> i've changed some permissions by accident, and need help in returning them to normal
[11:05] <Samus_Aran> dope: for example /dev/sda1
[11:05] <mads-> PriceChild: Yes sir, I do :)
[11:05] <Lacrymology> Samus_Aran, work
[11:05] <dope> Samus_Aran: so it'll be in /dev
[11:06] <PriceChild> mads-, wireless?
[11:06] <thadeus> hi
[11:06] <Samus_Aran> dope: check dmesg when you plug it in, it will tell you what device it is
[11:06] <Audio_1> i updated from 6.10 to 7.04 and now i am unable to delete/modify files. It says "read-only file system." what can i do?
[11:06] <mads-> PriceChild: Nope, wired..
[11:06] <DeadBird> hi. when i cfdisk /dev/hda  this message comes out :  FATAL ERROR: Bad logical partition 7: enlarged logical partitions overlap   Press any key to exit cfdisk
[11:06] <Samus_Aran> dope: dmesg |tail -n 50
[11:06] <dope> kk
[11:06] <thadeus> is there anyone here who use kiba-dock ???
[11:06] <Lacrymology> Samus_Aran, I work for a living, and pay my rent, and schooling, and food and etcetera etcetera
[11:06] <PriceChild> mads-, you can just type "nm-applet" in a terminal or somewhere to start the applet... but with a wired network it should just work fine. Try "sudo dhclient" in a terminal and see if it works then?
[11:06] <Lacrymology> and have been able to make my computer work after a long time
[11:06] <Samus_Aran> Lacrymology: yep, it is quite understandable.  Internet many places in the world is way too expensive
[11:06] <ElectricMonk> i try to log in, and it tells me the .dmrc needs to be owned by the user and have 644 permissions
[11:07] <Lacrymology> Samus_Aran, not TOO expensive.. just not on the top of the list, you know
[11:07] <Lacrymology> anyways
[11:07] <dope> Samus_Aran: it says SD card detected in socket 3
[11:07] <PriceChild> ElectricMonk, ctrl+alt+f1, then sudo chown user:user /home/user/.dmrc (replacing user with your username)
[11:07] <yeniklasor> Can I remote desktop between ubuntu server edition and my ubuntu desktop edition?
[11:07] <PriceChild> ElectricMonk, sudo chmod 664 /home/user/.dmrc
[11:07] <mads-> PriceChild: It tells me something about adding "madsravn-laptop" (name of the computer) to /etc/hosts . is that any hint?
[11:07] <FarrisG> Samus_Aran: Right, but I want to know where that menu.lst file is, because it's not in the boot/grub directory of the root file system. There is a boot partition that I can't seem to find/read once booted into ubuntu
[11:07] <PriceChild> ElectricMonk, exit and then ctrl+alt+f1
[11:07] <ElectricMonk> ctrl+alt+f1 opens the terminal?
[11:08] <PriceChild> mads-, Shouldn't have to touch that and I'd be scared to...
[11:08] <gn0me> Anyone ever have random parts of the screen just.. not draw. Like Pidgin or a terminal, some menus in Firefox.. they make the actual shape, but don't write the fonts.
[11:08] <mads-> PriceChild: Hmm.. strange.. Why would it then be telling me to do so?
[11:08] <PriceChild> mads-, I'm not sure... what's telling you that?
[11:08] <Samus_Aran> Lacrymology: I was in the Philippines for a year, and it surprised me that a slow and buggy DSL connection cost around 20% more than an extremely fast and stable connection here in Canada (and it's even cheaper in the USA)
[11:09] <Samus_Aran> FarrisG: did you create a /boot partition when you installed ?
[11:09] <shane_> Hi guys, is there any prettier desktop interfaces? Like the taskbar etc.
[11:09] <shane_> Any that look better?
[11:09] <mads-> PriceChild: When I log in from login screen, a box pops up telling me that it couldn't connect to the internet and I should add the name to /etc/hosts
[11:09] <nonZero> Samus_Aran:  thank you for your explanation, I'm back :-)
[11:09] <ryan__> Good afternoon everyone. Quick question for you.. I just got Ubuntu installed, and I use a program called "Synergy" quite a bit. I dont have a keyboard / mouse hooked up most of the time (Laptop on external display with cover closed)... How can I auto-start synergy BEFORE the login manager? I dont want to have to move my monitor and open the laptop every time I login.
[11:09] <PriceChild> mads-, i don't know sorry
[11:09] <atomikuXP> How can I use FreeNX server + NXclient (v1.5) to logon to an existing XFCE4 session?
[11:09] <nonZero> Samus_Aran:  seems like all controls ok, but no output from mic :-(
[11:09] <mads-> PriceChild: I will just log out from gnome and try out your advice till now :) thanks for your time...
[11:10] <shane_> Hello?
[11:10] <shane_> Anyone know?
[11:10] <nickrud> ryan__, you could add it to /etc/init.d/rc.local
[11:10] <FarrisG> Samus_Aran: *I* did not, but there already was one. When grub starts, it's the stock CentOS grub screen, and it references a CentOS kernel, and will even boot that kernel. But all of the OS fileystems now have ubuntu on them. I just can't tell where that /boot partition is
[11:10] <ryan__> nickrud: Will that start it before X though? It must have "X.Org" running when it starts up.
[11:10] <Samus_Aran> nonZero: as I was saying, you won't hear anything unless you unmute and turn up the {mic output volume} and the {mic input volume}, which have random names with ALSA
[11:11] <Samus_Aran> nonZero: and you also need to set the recording source to mic
[11:11] <shane_> Hello?
[11:11] <nickrud> ryan__, ah. is it ok if it simply starts after you log in, without interaction?
[11:11] <shane_> Anyone tell me how to spice up my interface? Add more colour make it look more graphical? I'm using GNOME :/
[11:11] <ZZsputnik> shane may edubuntu? icons?
[11:11] <ZZsputnik> be
[11:11] <shane_> hold up
[11:11] <mon^rch> where is it that I set to report which programs and settings I use... ?
[11:11] <shane_> edubuntu?
[11:11] <thadeus> no one use kiba dock here ??
[11:12] <ZZsputnik> it has nice icons
[11:12] <ryan__> I use a graphical login manager. The default with Ubuntu. I just want the app to open when the login manager starts. So I can login with my normal keyboard / mouse (Attached to a 2nd computer)
[11:12] <Xyhthyx> I can't figure out why I get a warning on boot "AC'97 1 access is not valid [0xffffffff] , removing mixer. ali mixer 1 creating error"
[11:12] <shane_> Do I have to upgrade?
[11:12] <shane_> You know the bar at the top Applications, Places, System etc. it's grey and boring I'm fed up with it!
[11:12] <Samus_Aran> nonZero: for example on my soundcard I have to adjust TWO controls just to turn up the mic recording volume, I think mine are "IEC958 AC97 1 [dB gain=mute, mute] " and "ADC [dB gain=mute, mute] "
[11:12] <nickrud> ryan ok, I get it. a sec
[11:12] <kaukx> which package provides libqt.so.2 ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
[11:12] <nonZero> Samus_Aran:  Capture=100<>100, mic as O=[OO]  , imput source=Mic
[11:12] <ryan__> shane_: Have you tried different themes?
[11:12] <albert> alright i got it ^^
[11:12] <albert> thanks alot !
[11:12] <ZZsputnik> !icons
[11:12] <ubotu> Want to see volume/trash icons on the desktop? Go to /apps/nautilus/desktop in gconf-editor (Gnome) or go to http://kudos.berlios.de/kf/kisimlar/tipsntrix.html#showtrash (KDE)
[11:12] <Xyhthyx> kaukx, easy on the ?'s heh
[11:12] <Samus_Aran> nonZero: unfortunately with ALSA drivers, every soundcard has different named items, and they often are not clear at all
[11:13] <ryan__> shane_:  Or you can also disable that pannel and have a single one at the bottom. Much like windows.
[11:13] <kaukx> :)
[11:13] <shane_> ryan_: Where do I find them?
[11:13] <Samus_Aran> albert: did you get your monitor behaving how you wanted ?
[11:13] <ryan__> System -> Prefrences -> Themes
[11:13] <shane_> ryan__:Different themes that is. Plus I messed up the bar at the bottom, I closed it and reopened it and
[11:13] <shane_> ok
[11:13] <mon^rch> shane_: dude... here: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/LiNsta+3+%28Linux+is+Not+Vista%29?content=44570
[11:14] <ElectricMonk> back, i didnt expect to be logged out to the command line, can someone give me the command for the change mod on the .dmrc again please?
[11:14] <mon^rch> shane_: that is an awesome theme for ubuntu
[11:14] <MikeReiner> If I have two devices showing up as ALSA mixers.. could that cause problems regarding sound?
[11:14] <ZZsputnik> anyway edubuntu icons are cool too
[11:14] <kaukx> xythyx,just trying to run lan chat,some crap missing
[11:14] <roo_> MikeReiner, what problems are you having?
[11:14] <MikeReiner> roo_ distorted sounds in games
[11:15] <atomikuXP> I am currently logged into XFCE on ubuntu and I want to be able to get on this logged in desktop through VNC.. at the moment it's not working, just takes me to a white/black screen when I try to VNC into it
[11:15] <MikeReiner> roo_ I tried changing sound cards, but it was exactly the same
[11:15] <roo_> MikeReiner, i doubt it. are they both internal sound cards?
[11:15] <MikeReiner> roo_ well the thing is, I'm using onboard for sound, but the 2nd alsa mixer is actually my TVTuner/media card
[11:15] <roo_> MikeReiner, the easiest way to tell is to take the tv card out i'd say.
[11:15] <shane_> monarch how do i install it?
[11:15] <imbecile> can someone explain what mythtv is? like do i need a dvb card for it? can I watch movie channel? do i even know what i'm talking about?
[11:16] <MikeReiner> roo_ Yeah the thought just crossed my mind
[11:16] <ElectricMonk> is it sudo user:user /home/user/.dmrc
[11:16] <shadeofgrey> imbits the opensource answer to TiVo
[11:16] <MikeReiner> roo_ if I could get UT04 to run just how I like it.. i'd probably reboot into windows about half as much as I do lol
[11:16] <nickrud> ryan__, rc local seems to have disappeared ;( So, add a script to /etc/init.d/ (say synergy) and link to it in rc2.d (say S99synergy) . The canonical way is to use update-rc.d to add that link. That will start after X
[11:16] <shadeofgrey> imbecile, mythTV is the opensource equivelant to TiVo
[11:17] <ElectricMonk> sudo chmod user:user /home/user/.dmrc even
[11:17] <shadeofgrey> imbecile, it gives you the power to turn any linux desktop or lapto computer into a TiVo
[11:17] <imbecile> shadeofgrey, so its not for getting the channels themselves?
[11:18] <shane_> mon^rch: How do I install this?
[11:18] <ryan__> Thanks nickrud.. So I would create a simple text file with my command in it. Save it to /etc/init.d/S99synergy.. Then use ln /etc/init.d/S99synergy /etc/init.d/rc2.d? Or do I add a line in rc2.d? Sorry, newbie here :)
[11:18] <shane_> poo:lol
[11:18] <ryan__> And change permissions to +x on the txt file.
[11:18] <kane77> what could python do on my comp? (it's using 99% of my cpu and I'm not aware that I use python in anything...)
[11:19] <Samus_Aran> nonZero: I recommend loading up Audacity and recording with that, it's easy to see if it is recording anything
[11:19] <Samus_Aran> nonZero: then fiddle with the settings in alsamixer until you get a recording
[11:19] <mon^rch> shane_: did you download it?
[11:19] <Samus_Aran> kane77: most likely it is gdesklets, they use up tons of RAM and CPU too often =p
[11:20] <svengips> can you net commends in console linux??
[11:20] <nickrud> ryan__, close. you need short bash script, be sure to put     # /bin/bash      on the first line
[11:20] <__Ace__> whats wrong here: ace@ace-laptop:~/crosscompile/code$ i586-mingw32msvc-gcc -lversion  c.c
[11:20] <kane77> Samus_Aran, nah, not gdesklets (although thanx for reminding :) I forgot to install them after I reinstalled)
[11:20] <__Ace__> /tmp/ccOXPl8k.o:c.c:(.text+0x43): undefined reference to `_GetFileVersionInfoSizeA@8'
[11:20] <shane_> mon^rch I don't know how
[11:20] <nickrud> ryan__, and use ln -s  (I'd suggest reading up on update-rc.d)
[11:20] <shadeofgrey> imbecile, no.  to get thechannels themselves yoiu have to buy a hardware component known as a TV tuner
[11:20] <nonZero> Samus_Aran:  thank you - nothing works.  the mic is fine on a different PC
[11:20] <__Ace__> I unclude the version lib damnit
[11:20] <__Ace__> *include
[11:20] <Samus_Aran> kane77: anyhow, you can look at the details with 'top' or something like: \ps auxww|grep python
[11:21] <shadeofgrey> imbecile, and you need to make sure you buy one that is compatible with mythTV because many are not
[11:21] <shane_> mon^rch: I don't know how
[11:21] <mon^rch> shane_: check your pm
[11:21] <imbecile> shadeofgrey,  thanks.. they are really expensive huh?
[11:21] <svengips> I search polnish users
[11:21] <Samus_Aran> nonZero: I can assure you with 90% probability that it is simply doesn't have the volume up.  ALSA can be a real bitch to configure mics on, but they do work.  I've recorded a lot with mine
[11:21] <kane77> Samus_Aran, too late :) python is dead
[11:21] <Samus_Aran> kane77: heh
[11:21] <nickrud> ryan__, after reading closely: save the file as synergy, then ln -s /etc/init.d/synergy /etc/rc2.d/S99synergy
[11:21] <tehpunkprodigy> does anybody know the command to upgrade from edgy to fiesty, I lost graphics so i cannot do it from synaptic
[11:22] <godmaster> hello
[11:22] <Samus_Aran> tehpunkprodigy: apt-get update; apt-get distupgrade
[11:22] <mon^rch> shane_: there is a download link right there on the page... you want the one that says gtk
[11:22] <Samus_Aran> tehpunkprodigy: I think ..
[11:22] <kane77> Samus_Aran, it has been shot twice with -9 gun
[11:22] <ryan__> Thank you nickrud. I'll give it a go.
[11:22] <shadeofgrey> imbecile, no - not all are..  but they certainly can be if you go for a dual channel model with lots of buffer RAM and other speciual componmentys
[11:22] <tehpunkprodigy> ill try that, thanks

[11:23] <godmaster> i need help with raid and mdadm who can help me please ? its very important 2 millions euros of data in  the disk
[11:23] <imbecile> shadeofgrey,  thanks for your help
[11:23] <IntuitiveNipple> Does anyone know if the Feisty on the Sony Vaio VGN-FE41Z actually supports the CPU's VT (virtualization) support? (There was a note on the Sony web-site saying "Vaio does not support VT" and I'm wondering if they've disabled it in BIOS)
[11:23] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: that sounds unusual!
[11:23] <__Ace__> anyone?
[11:23] <mariah> intuitiveNipple: I know I'm still young as well!
[11:23] <svengips> thanx
[11:23] <IntuitiveNipple> woo hoo!
[11:23] <godmaster> i need help with raid and mdadm who can help me please ? its very important 2 millions euros of data in  the disk
[11:24] <mariah> intuitiveNipple: Problem is in processor,ko for generic
[11:24] <FarrisG> I guess in the simplest terms: This box is currently booted into a 2.6.9 CentOS kernel. Ubuntu linux is installed on the / partition, and the 2.6.9 kernel image does not exist anywhere on that filesystem. How do I determine where exactly that 2.6.9 kernel is?
[11:24] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: I built custom-kernels for 2 of my notebook PCs and that helped them speed up generally, but there was no specific problem like you seem to have.
[11:24] <shane_> mon^rch:Help!
[11:24] <godmaster> please
[11:24] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: I hope you document this on launchpad
[11:24] <shane_> mon^rch: I got it, now how do I install it?
[11:24] <mariah> intuitiveNipple: If I rmmod thermal.ko and processor.ko problem stops immediatly.
[11:25] <godmaster>  who knows raid and mdadm
[11:25] <godmaster> ?
[11:25] <shane_> I know mdma
[11:25] <mariah> intuitiveNipple: Where and how and I will.
[11:25] <godmaster> can y help me shane?
[11:25] <mon^rch> shane_: okay click system-->pref's--->theme
[11:25] <ElectricMonk> i need more help on the permissions of the .dmrc file
[11:25] <shane_> mon^rch:Done that
[11:25] <Samus_Aran> g'day all.  gotta get work done.  nonZero: and do trust me, as long as you plugged it into the right plug on the back of your soundcard, it can work fine if you set up alsamixer
[11:25] <mon^rch> shane_: then drag and drop the theme into the window that appears
[11:26] <IntuitiveNipple> mariah: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/
[11:26] <shane_> from the desktop?
[11:26] <atomikuXP> I am currently logged into XFCE on ubuntu and I want to be able to get on this logged in desktop through VNC.. at the moment it's not working, just takes me to a white/black screen when I try to VNC into it
[11:26] <mon^rch> shane_: yes
[11:26] <nonZero> Samus_Aran, thank you! dnight
[11:26] <shane_> Mon^rch:I extracted the tarball is that right or wrong?
[11:26] <nickrud> FarrisG, try sudo fdisk -l ; that will show all of the partitions you have. mount will show the ones that are mounted. It's on one of the unmounted, most likely
[11:26] <ryan__> nickrud: Sorry to keep bugging you. Thumbing through the man pages.. update-rc.d just creates sym links to my script for the different run levels? If that is so, why did I go through the trouble to manually symlink it to runlevel2? (Just trying to get a feel for linux still)
[11:26] <mon^rch> shane_: one sec... lemmee download it to see :/
[11:26] <guycook> 2 ? about ubuntu, can I use vmware 6 workstation on it as the host machine, and does it support nvidia video cards?
[11:26] <shane_> mon^rch:sorry
[11:27] <d2812> Anybody know what package is needed for asx playback?
[11:27] <nickrud> ryan__, well, it's a lot easier to just make one link by hand than to build the update-rc.d for a custom run level :)
[11:27] <gizmo_the_great1> hi. I have a font included with The GIMP which is not with later versions. I've looked in the home/username/.gimp-2.2 folder but the fonts folder is empty? How can I find and copy the font to another PC?
[11:27] <Fogge> Hi, i need help recovering data that was thrown from the garbage bin in Feisty. Please PM.
[11:27] <ryan__> Gotcha :) Thanks again.
[11:27] <nickrud> *update-rc.d command line
[11:27] <HO1> so, whats the deal with ati and googlearth, anyone cracked it yet?
[11:27] <ryan__> Going to reboot to give it a whirl. Thanks again!
[11:27] <shane_> mon^rch:Okay, but I did not get the start bar and the terminal icon etc.
[11:28] <mon^rch> shane_: no dont extract it... just drag and drop the tarball into the theme window :)
[11:28] <shane_> mon^rch:balls.
[11:28] <shane_> mon^rch: So I want the GTK+Icons+Metacity?
[11:29] <Lacrymology> has anybody run Uberyl?
[11:29] <mon^rch> shane_: yes... you're using feisty, no?
[11:29] <shane_> mon^rch: No, echo
[11:29] <shane_> mon^rch 7.04
[11:29] <Lacrymology> something weird happened to my Beryl after updating it
[11:29] <shane_> think it's ehco
[11:29] <siloko> Anyone got Emerald Theme Manager to download new GPL themes - I always get a Tar error . . .
[11:29] <ElectricMonk_> hi all, can someone help with file permissions?
[11:29] <Goshawk> hi, how to change system language from terminal?
[11:30] <dtrump> dunno
[11:30] <nickrud> ElectricMonk_, maybe ;)
[11:30] <HO1> ohhhhh
[11:30] <mmdski> i'm having trouble with my ipw3945...
[11:30] <Lacrymology> uhm.. the taskbar froze...
[11:30] <Lacrymology> argh
[11:30] <HO1> this klik thing is interesting
[11:30] <Lacrymology> I can't change workspaces now!
[11:30] <ElectricMonk_> i log in and get the message the .dmrc file needs to be owned by the user and have 644 permissions
[11:30] <mon^rch> shane_: then you need to also sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf
[11:30] <mmdski> a really slow and seemingly unstable connection
[11:30] <Blazingazn> Hey what program do i use to put the ubuntu 7.04 iso onto a disk
[11:30] <nickrud> Lacrymology, try clt-alt left right
[11:31] <shane_> mon^rch:What is feisty?
[11:31] <Blazingazn> What program should i use to put the .iso on a disk
[11:31] <shane_> mon^rch:Do I do that before or after dragging the tarball into themes?
[11:31] <pyrohotdog> Blazingazn: From what OS?
[11:31] <linxeh> Blazingazn: and what type of disk ?
[11:31] <mon^rch> shane_: that's the name of the ubuntu distribution... :)
[11:31] <Lacrymology> nickrud, it behaves as normal left click
[11:31] <Blazingazn> Windows
[11:31] <Blazingazn> I'm putting the .iso ubuntu
[11:31] <linxeh> Blazingazn: and you only need to ask once
[11:31] <Blazingazn> Alrught xP
[11:31] <nickrud> ElectricMonk_, Lacrymology clt-alt left arrow should change workspaces
[11:32] <linxeh> Blazingazn: ok, nero will do it, probably cequadrat easy cd creator, and things like ultraiso ?
[11:32] <Blazingazn> Alright thank you
[11:32] <mon^rch> shane_: it should be done before... but you can just change to a different theme and back again if you installed it after...
[11:32] <nickrud> ElectricMonk_, chown <you>:<you> ~/.dmrc ; chmod 644 ~/.dmrc     try that
[11:32] <zerokill88> How do i check how much space i have in my directories?
[11:33] <shane_> mon^rch:Help what is this E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[11:33] <Lacrymology> nickrud, that worked. But my lower taskbar is still frozen (freshly installed Uberyl running gnome/Metacity)
[11:33] <roo_> zerokill88, you can see how much space you have left on your drives/partitions by typing "df -h" into a terminal
[11:33] <jszx> hi all
[11:33] <mmdski> is the driver for the ipw3945 native?
[11:33] <tapio> How can I figure out whats blocking my audio?
[11:33] <nickrud> zerokill88, apps->accessories->disk usage analyzer
[11:33] <shane_> mon^rch:Requested action requires Superuser priviledge
[11:33] <roo_> tapio, what do you mean blocking?
[11:33] <zerokill88> roo_ thanks alot. nickrude thanks
[11:33] <crimsun> tapio: lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/mixer* /dev/snd/*
[11:33] <ompaul> zerokill88, du -h is one thing and df -h is another
[11:34] <ryan__> No joy, looking through the logs, it is trying to start synergy before X.Org.. Because synergy must attach to a screen, it is not starting.
[11:34] <nickrud> Lacrymology, I ended up deleting and reinstalling the lower panel: WorkedForMe
[11:34] <tapio> crimsun: Thanks
[11:34] <mon^rch> shane_: okay then just sudo dpkg --configure -a
[11:34] <ElectricMonk_> k, to make sure i got this right its   sudo chown user:user home/user/.dmrc ; chmod 644 home/user/.dmrc
[11:34] <senniha> does anyone have an hp dv6000z
[11:34] <mon^rch> shane_: (you forgot to sudo) :)
[11:34] <shane_> mon^rch: I know ;;p
[11:35] <zerokill88> why would my sda1 look like this? /dev/sda1             144G  5.0G  132G   4% /
[11:35] <ryan__> The login manager for a default Ubuntu install is "GDM" isnt it?
[11:35] <nickrud> ryan__, yes
[11:35] <Lacrymology> W: GPG error: http://www.getautomatix.com edgy Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY CC919A31E23C5FC3
[11:35] <zerokill88> and how would i ad more memory to a diffrerent area?
[11:35] <roo_> zerokill88, that means 4% of the disk space is used
[11:35] <Lacrymology> argh
[11:35] <Lacrymology> I'll reboot X
[11:35] <mon^rch> Viva Rockstar energy drinks! :P
[11:36] <ElectricMonk_> well.....   sudo chown user:user /home/user/.dmrc ; chmod 644 /home/user/.dmrc

[11:36] <Graham> Hey people, how can I get .wma support?
[11:37] <mon^rch> I had a prob with my .dmrc file and had to reinstall intoa different /home to solve it :/

[11:38] <shane_> mon^rch: If I do sudo apt-get install pixbuf
[11:38] <shane_> mon^rch It'll look exactly like it does on the website?
[11:38] <mon^rch> shane_: yet
[11:38] <mon^rch> shane_: yes
[11:38] <shane_> mon^rch: SEXY TIME
[11:39] <shane_> Mon^rch: I'm not a homo, but I love you

[11:39] <mon^rch> shane_: lol... I love you too
[11:39] <dxdemetriou> I want to change my whole pc, but the problem is I don't know one up-to-date place on the internet to check each part I'll need. Is there a place that can I find full supported hardware by ubuntu?
[11:39] <ElectricMonk_> thanks nickrud i'll try that
[11:40] <nexous> Which file do i really need to replace from start menu icon in Tango icon set?
[11:40] <nickrud> ElectricMonk_, strange: mine is 600 ; try that one if 644 doesn't work.
[11:42] <zezu_> after upgrading to feisty from LTS, glxinfo reports: Xlib:  extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0".
[11:43] <zezu_> using nvidia drivers
[11:43] <mon^rch> ubuntu really should create some themes for gnome... I agree with shayne_, the standard panel is pretty darn boring
[11:43] <Goshawk> zezu_: have you already tried to configure the xserver?
[11:43] <linxeh> most people just want to work with their computers, not make it look pretty
[11:43] <linxeh> *shocking revelation*
[11:44] <d2812> linxeh: you've not met my girlfriend...
[11:44] <imbecile> dxdemetriou, try a live feisty fawn cd.. ubuntu works very well detecting hardware.. installed on 6 different laptops and all worked right out of the box.. no setting up needed..
[11:44] <mon^rch> I think most people want pretty if they can get it that way...
[11:44] <zezu_> Goshawk, well it was an upgrade, but i've looked at the xorg.conf file myself and it seems ok
[11:44] <zezu_> glx, dri modules are set to load
[11:44] <Goshawk> zezu_: do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:44] <linxeh> mon^rch: I don't - most people want it functional, accessible, and easy
[11:44] <zezu_> Goshawk, ok i'll try it thx
[11:44] <flix007US> Hi guys! I am having trouble with my dapper which was running for years now :-) It drops me to a shell when booting, saying it cant mount /dev/hda1. If I boot my dapper live-cd I can mount that partition, fschk runs ok, fstab looks good, also grub menu.lst. fdisk- l looks as expected ... I have now idea what to do and I need my system running again ...
[11:44] <crdlb> zezu_: actually you don't want Load "dri"
[11:44] <mon^rch> so why the eyecandy in feisty, hmmm?
[11:45] <Goshawk> zezu_: it will reconfigure the xorg.conf depending from your answer
[11:45] <mon^rch> I say the best of both worlds...
[11:45] <Filthpig> hi all
[11:45] <linxeh> mon^rch: or at least everyone that works on their machine. the eye candy is reaction to OSX and Vista, and because "they can"
[11:45] <Filthpig> urh
[11:45] <linxeh> yeah, if it isnt intrusive sure
[11:45] <zezu_> crdlb, i've read that, but it was working prop. i'll try removing it if reconf. desn't work prop.
[11:46] <crdlb> zezu_: run sudo nvidia-xconfig
[11:46] <crdlb> that's much better than dpkg-reconfigure
[11:46] <crdlb> for what you're doing
[11:46] <mon^rch> not intrusive for me... and makes my linux experience actually fun as well as productive, not annoying like vista ;)
[11:46] <Greevous> whois ahuman
[11:46] <Greevous> usrlist
[11:47] <Filthpig> why can't I make a root partition that's ca 10 gb, a home partition that's ca 235 gb and ca 2 gb swap partition on my 250 gb hdd?
[11:47] <Greevous> help
[11:47] <ompaul> !ask | Greevous
[11:47] <ubotu> Greevous: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:47] <klaus_> hello, on #kubuntu it looks like nobody can help me get libdvdcss2 running on feisty - i have it, it cracks the disc key, but continues with a read-error and nothing works :( has anybody an idea ?
[11:47] <Greevous> gui
[11:47] <ompaul> !enter | Greevous
[11:47] <nickrud> Filthpig, because it's not really 250 gb? ;)
[11:47] <Filthpig> heh
[11:47] <ubotu> Greevous: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:47] <zezu_> brb, i think nvidia-xconfig fixed going to restart server, i notice it was using "nv" instead of "nvidia" now
[11:48] <crdlb> gah
[11:48] <Greevous> My bad, keyboard slip
[11:48] <crdlb> he needed to reboot
[11:48] <eiceic_> hellow
[11:48] <Filthpig> nickrud: the partitioner tells me "ERROR!!!! Can't have the end before the start!"
[11:48] <Goshawk> zezu_nv is the opensource driver
[11:48] <Filthpig> which to me seems quite illogical
[11:48] <nickrud> Filthpig, make the root and swap, and leave the rest to home. See what happens
[11:48] <eiceic_> may name is alex
[11:48] <eiceic_> live in brazil
[11:48] <mon^rch> eyecandy and a nice theme are a must for most of today's home users... simply because "they could" sure turned out to be a pretty nice desktop :/
[11:49] <cjae> hi how do I edit grub (menu.lst) see another install (not windows) but the OS is linux and is on a partition behind the already loaded os
[11:49] <eiceic_> meu tem algum brasileiro ai??
[11:49] <air23> I have a dell with ATI Radeon X1400, and my x server fails, anybody know how i can fix it???
[11:49] <Filthpig> nickrud: if I make root 40 gb and home 210 (all amounts in ca;) it's all well
[11:49] <CheshireViking> !br | eiceic_
[11:49] <ubotu> eiceic_: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[11:49] <Filthpig> but I don't need 40 gb of root :/
[11:49] <cjae> do I just point it to /boot
[11:49] <cjae> or /
[11:49] <svr_pi> hi
[11:49] <Filthpig> god damn gaim is a really disturbing irc client :/
[11:49] <nickrud> Filthpig, odd. try cfdisk or fdisk
[11:50] <mon^rch> (my root is 250 gig)
[11:50] <mon^rch> :P
[11:50] <Filthpig> mon^rch: why on earth? :P
[11:50] <mon^rch> my /home is 500
[11:50] <shane_> mon^rch:Hey
[11:50] <Filthpig> but nickrud can I do that from the installer?
[11:50] <mon^rch> shane_: hey
[11:51] <shane_> mon^rch:sudo apt-get engine-bufpix
[11:51] <eiceic_> oi
[11:51] <dxdemetriou> imbecile, I know that, I already run Feisty. Just I want to check what m/board, graphic card etc I'll buy. Now I have a motherboard with onboard graphic card that doesn't work, and the soundcard have some problems. Isn't there a company that make m/boards for example full supported?
[11:51] <eiceic_> you is gay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[11:51] <shane_> mon^rch:isn't working
[11:51] <mon^rch> shane_: sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf
[11:51] <nickrud> Filthpig, I booted the live cd, used fdisk in a terminal window, put back vista (gparted didn't like it) and then installed ubuntu.
[11:51] <majd_> Hey, when i do mount in terminal and get: /dev/sdc2 on /mnt/majd_macbook type hfsplus (rw) that means that /dev/sdc2 when mounted has write permissions, right?
[11:52] <linxeh> on the dev servers I just set up, the root is 50GB, with 32GB swap, 100GB /opt, and approx 580GB as /data
[11:52] <schasi> Someone using the IBM T40 in here and can say something about battery runtime with linux?

If I try to install 7.04 it just does not do anything

[11:56] <Goshawk> atomikuXP: in vino just press ALT+A
[11:56] <nickrud> Filthpig, try using one of the text disk formatters, see if you can format the way you want
[11:56] <svr_pi> jrib: I can bot knoppix on the laptop but i never was able to boot ubuntu
[11:56] <mon^rch> shane_: lol is a start button that important?
[11:56] <shane_> YES!
[11:56] <jrib> svr_pi: k, give the alternate cd a try
[11:56] <Sam___> anyone???
[11:56] <Sam___> vpn??
[11:56] <Filthpig> nickrud: as in downloading the alternate cd?
[11:56] <jrib> !please > Sam___ (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:56] <shane_> Mon^rch: it's a ubuntu!
[11:56] <svr_pi> I am downloading it right now
[11:56] <mon^rch> shane_: I like the ubuntu one better anyway
[11:56] <Goshawk> atomikuXP: to accept the connection (and the screen will be not grey) try the same with the server you are using since vino is installed when you use gnome.
[11:57] <atomikuXP> Goshawk: What command do I run to start vino VNC server?
[11:57] <nickrud> Filthpig, I'm not sure, but I'd expect one of them to be on the live cd.
[11:57] <mon^rch> shane_: oh, yeah... you're not using ubuntu
[11:57] <svr_pi> is there any particular boot option I can use to start install instead of booting using CD first?
[11:57] <shane_> mon^rch: I am!
[11:57] <shane_> 7.04!
[11:57] <atomikuXP> Goshawk: I typed vino then pressed TAB (to make sure) It just gave me "vino-prefrences"
[11:57] <mon^rch> shane_: o
[11:57] <shane_> I have no start button at all!
[11:57] <Sam___> i have a question. I am trying to use my linux server, which is running apache, webmin, and other thingys to have a vpn server. I have 3 windows computers. I want them all on the same network.... And i would like the vpn i guest host computer to be on my linux server. Can anyone take some time and help me do this process.????
[11:57] <Goshawk> atomikuXP: after that you configure it, it is started by gnome session automatically
[11:57] <atomikuXP> Goshawk: I'm using XFCE
[11:57] <shane_> Mon^rch: Are you referring to Applications?
[11:57] <mon^rch> shane_: yes
[11:58] <svr_pi>  jrib: is there any particular boot option I can use to start install instead of booting using CD first?
[11:58] <Goshawk> atomikuXP: can you reach the keyboard of the server that you wanna control?
[11:58] <atomikuXP> Goshawk: I'm in the SSH
[11:58] <nickrud> Filthpig, I like text installers, I'm used to them
[11:58] <shane_> mon^rch: Okay
[11:58] <majd_> Hey, when i do mount in terminal and get: /dev/sdc2 on /mnt/majd_macbook type hfsplus (rw) that means that /dev/sdc2 when mounted has write permissions, right?
[11:59] <jrib> svr_pi: no, you need the alternate cd
[11:59] <mon^rch> shane_: the "start" button you see on the website is installable if you really want it that badly
[11:59] <Goshawk> atomikuXP: ok, so review the server configuration, and check that user should not confirm for each client attempt.
[11:59] <svr_pi> jrib: thanks I will try it
[11:59] <meezyfuh> hi. is there a way to download all files in an HTTP directory without having to individually click each one and 'save as'?
[11:59] <mon^rch> shane_: and the "start" button just opens the applications menu ;)
[11:59] <shane_> mon^rch: Nah, but I want the Penguin Terminal and wall paper!
[11:59] <svr_pi> jrib: could you tell me the difference between regular cd and alternate?
[11:59] <jrib> meezyfuh: wget
[11:59] <jrib> !alternate > svr_pi (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:00] <Goshawk> atomikuXP: usually i get the grey screen if the server is waiting for an answer from the user in the pc to allow/deny the remote connection
[12:00] <Sam___> can anyone help me config openssl??
[12:00] <atomikuXP> yeah
[12:00] <Sam___> need help not sure where it is installed too
[12:00] <meezyfuh> jrib: thanks much.
[12:00] <mon^rch> shane_: you can customize the whol;e lot...
[12:00] <atomikuXP> Okay, So how can I resume an XFCE session via the terminal?
[12:00] <svr_pi> jrib: thanks
[12:00] <Sam___> im using an ssh
[12:00] <Sam___> program
[12:00] <Sam___> what is the path to the config file??
[12:00] <shane_> mon^rch: How? Where do I get the bin and stuff?
[12:00] <jrib> !enter | Sam___
[12:00] <ubotu> Sam___: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:00] <Goshawk> atomikuXP: in gnome i start gnome-session
[12:00] <atomikuXP> yeah
[12:00] <atomikuXP> that'd start a new session
[12:00] <atomikuXP> I already have an XFCE session that I would like to... "enter"
[12:00] <air23> i installed ubuntu with alternate version and I have ATI RADEON X1400 but my xserver fails, anybody know why???
