[12:01] <Lilacor> tim167: after that you want to edit your /etc/network/interfaceds file
[12:01] <stefg> dave_: ping  <ip-of-other-computer>
[12:01] <necrodrako> yes
[12:01] <dave_> yeah tried it, getting nothing
[12:01] <tondar> k, very tired, gng to sleep, bye every one ;)
[12:01] <ori_> Stormx2: maybe once this gets installed
[12:01] <crimsun> necrodrako: pastebin  amixer -c1
[12:01] <Beyond_The_Grave> Why won't the network app let me choose a WPA key instead of just WEP keys?
[12:01] <ace_ace> bye tondar
[12:01] <stefg> dave_: so they can't see each other
[12:01] <Stormx2> ori_: Theres a good chance MSN won't work. The output will have been there, I guarantee it.
[12:02] <d4rkmonkey> errrrr
[12:02] <dave_> so what could i possibly be doing wrong
[12:02] <tondar> ace_ace: thank you
[12:02] <Stormx2> ori_: Did it say "now type make" or similar?
[12:02] <ace_ace> tim167: can you see what IP the second computer got ?
[12:02] <tim167> Lilacori in synaptic i see: gnome-netstatus-applet is it that ?
[12:02] <d4rkmonkey> ace_ace, pastebin gave me some weird error
[12:02] <necrodrako> said invalid card number
[12:02] <ori_> Stormx2: it didn't get to any of that
[12:02] <d4rkmonkey> give me a sec, let me try again
[12:02] <dave_> say i did nothing but connected the two machines via ethernet card, they should ping no matter what
[12:02] <Stormx2> ori_: Oh. What did it say?
[12:02] <dave_> ?
[12:02] <tim167> ace_ace: it is set to dhcp
[12:02] <d4rkmonkey> Query failure: Can't open file: 'recent.MYI'. (errno: 145)
[12:02] <d4rkmonkey> lock tables recent write :(
[12:03] <ace_ace> dave_: with just two computers you might need a crosscable ?
[12:03] <stefg> dave_: ypu have to be more specific about your setup and what you are trying to do
[12:03] <ori_> Stormx2: nothing more than what I pasted, now it seems to be working though
[12:03] <crimsun> necrodrako: that's a one (1), not an el (l)
[12:03] <necrodrako> ooo
[12:03] <MmikeMRMA> Where does evolution keeps its settings? I moved ~/.evolution directory (copy -av) from the dapper installation to this one, fresh feisty, and evolution still asks me for initial setup.... how do I copy all the settings from old evolution?
[12:03] <ace_ace> wow a pastebin server error !
[12:03] <jad> hey, how do i install flash player for firefox in feisty?
[12:03] <ori_> Stormx2: now it says I need GLib 2.0 development headers installed to build
[12:03] <ace_ace> just join #d4rkmonkey
[12:03] <d4rkmonkey> yup...
[12:03] <rollerskatejamms> Anybody know if there's a way to totally clear out all saved wireless settings?
[12:03] <rollerskatejamms> poop
[12:03] <d4rkmonkey> ok
[12:03] <jad> !flash
[12:03] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[12:03] <ace_ace> d4rkmonkey: and paste it there!
[12:03] <starkruzr> hi.  I installed ubuntu at first, then installed kubuntu-desktop later.  why is it that a) beryl-manager no longer automatically starts when I login under KDE and b) when I start it myself, I lose my window bars?
[12:04] <Stormx2> ori_: sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev
[12:04] <necrodrako> http://pastebin.ca/490209
[12:04] <Agrajag> ori_: what are you trying to build?
[12:04] <dave_> well optimally share files between+share an internet connection, i have this computer with eth0 on a cable modem and eth1 to my other ubuntu machine..the other just has an onboard network adaptar
[12:04] <stefg> !beryl | starkruzr
[12:04] <ubotu> starkruzr: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:04] <ori_> Agrajag: pidgin
[12:04] <dave_> its all plugged in, ive been messing with it for awhile but they just wont see eachother
[12:04] <starkruzr> stefg: I think this is a kubuntu problem, not specifically a Beryl one.
[12:04] <Agrajag> ori_: you should probably just do sudo apt-get build-dep gaim
[12:04] <ace_ace> dave_: buy a switch they are cheap. Else buy a cross cable!
[12:05] <m1r> still dl cd-s to get to feisty :/
[12:05] <rollerskatejamms> Anybody know if there's a way to completely clear out all wireless settings?
[12:05] <Stormx2> Agrajag: Damn, i completely forgot about that.
[12:05] <stefg> starkruzr: #kubuntu or #ubuntu-effects
[12:05] <Agrajag> ori_: that will get everything you need to build gaim, which should be the same as what you need to build pidgin
[12:05] <dave_> yeah i know, but if i can do it without buying anything i'td be cheaper
[12:05] <m1r> roler, etc/network/interfaces ?
[12:05] <LucaBazooka> Hello to all, is it possible to install Kubuntu on USB drive and run it from there without installing grub?
[12:05] <ori_> Agrajag, ok one sec
[12:05] <ace_ace> dr4monkey: Mass storage controller: Texas Instruments 5-in-1 Multimedia Card Reader (SD/MMC/MS/MS PRO/xD)
[12:05] <dave_> so wait a regular eth cable wont work?
[12:05] <dave_> is that my problem
[12:05] <A1> I've installed three different versions of ubuntu (6.1, 7.04 and feisty, i've also installed the 64 bit version of 6.1) and have experienced this problem on all versions-- i have an nvidia geforce 6100 integrated graphics chip and an AMD Athlon64 X2 4200+ and i keep getting these graphics glitches where my screen "blinks." It doesn't blink black, it blinks as if you were to maximize a window and then minimize it within a millisecond of maximizing i
[12:05] <stefg> starkruzr: and it is a beryl problem, which is not going to be supported in here
[12:06] <Jack3> guys something is really messed up with my ubuntu
[12:06] <beruic> For compressing, would it be sensible for me to install p7zip-full, and leave the others out?
[12:06] <A1> does anyone think they could help with that problem?
[12:06] <ace_ace> dave_ no, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossover_cable
[12:06] <tim167> Lilacor, bbl
[12:06] <Jack3> when i boot into it, it goes to the blue login screen (ive got kubuntu)
[12:06] <vmuser> hi...what is the command to check if i have kernel heards installed?
[12:06] <ori_> agrajag, Stormx2: this will take about 15 minutes
[12:06] <Jack3> and  i type in my pass
[12:06] <Jack3> the scren goes blak
[12:06] <m1r> A1 ; google envy for drivers
[12:06] <Tehk> Anyone know what port the Remote Desktop uses?
[12:06] <beruic> A1: have you tried the nvidia-glx-new drivers?
[12:06] <roler> A1; try the drivers from the nvidia site. I had that problem on an old nvidia laptop. an older version of the drivers actually fixed the problem.
[12:06] <anathematic> this is gong to sound really stupid but how do i know if a file is a binary? What's the extension or what?
[12:07] <mikeyribbs> hey, i gotst a problem with my speakers. they dont make any noise when I play anthing. they aren't muted either
[12:07] <crimsun> necrodrako: if you don't prepend my nick to statements, I'll miss them
[12:07] <beruic> For compressing, would it be sensible for me to install p7zip-full, and leave the others out?
[12:07] <dave_> damn
[12:07] <necrodrako> crimsun: http://pastebin.ca/490209
[12:07] <phy3> anatematic -- the command     file      can often figure that out ---       file  <filename>
[12:07] <IntuitiveNipple> A1: I read that there a known issues with the nivdia drivers and CPUs that have VT support, you might want to check the Nvidia forums (http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=14)
[12:08] <dave_> so theres no way of doing anything between two computers with a standard eth cable
[12:08] <dave_> ?
[12:08] <crimsun> necrodrako: which element ae you trying to capture?
[12:08] <necrodrako> recording with mic
[12:08] <mikeyribbs> can someone hook me up with some help?
[12:08] <dave_> damn
[12:08] <stefg> anathematic: linux doesn't use extensions to identify filetypes. it employes the mime-type concept, and file permissions, which state if a file is executable
[12:08] <IntuitiveNipple> dave, not unless you convert it into a crossover cable, no
[12:08] <vmuser> hi...what is the command to check if i have kernel heards installed?
[12:08] <necrodrako> crimsun recording with microphone
[12:08] <dave_> how do you do that?
[12:08] <anathematic> stefg:  okay then so how do i see if something is a directory or not when looking around?
[12:09] <IntuitiveNipple> dave_: swap cores around so TX goes to RX and visa-versa
[12:09] <Beyond_The_Grave> I can't figure out why 1) Ubuntu won't let me choose WPA keys 2) let me set a static address when it's the same as this side of my PC (windows) 3) Why when a static address is set it won't even see any of the networks that I know are up
[12:09] <stefg> anathematic: ???
[12:09] <anathematic> stefg:  oh never mind i am a bit new to this i got it =D
[12:09] <dave_> damn never knew there was a difference
[12:09] <anathematic> haha man it's so easy installing little things on linux to windows
[12:09] <beruic> Can anybody tell me if p7zip-full can compress and not only read zip, rar, cab and ace?
[12:09] <ace_ace> dave_: learn the basics :-)
[12:09] <anathematic> it's just "sudo apt-get install namehere" and i'm set
[12:09] <anathematic> =d
[12:09] <necrodrako> crimsun: recording with mic
[12:10] <IntuitiveNipple> dave_: http://www.davidj.org/tools/cabler/cabler.html
[12:10] <dave_> so if i rewire this thing it will work ?
[12:10] <crimsun> necrodrako: you need to unmute the Mix* element(s)
[12:10] <Beyond_The_Grave> Is anybody even seeing what I'm typing or is there something wrong on Windows now?
[12:10] <ori_> I see it
[12:10] <dave_> this isnt an important enough project to actually "spend money"
[12:11] <vmuser> hi...what is the command to check if i have kernel heards installed?
[12:11] <hmmman> i can see

[12:11] <dave_> oo
[12:11] <beruic> Please, please, please, can anybody tell me if p7zip-full can compress and not only read zip, rar, cab and ace?
[12:11] <hmmman> i only just joined
[12:11] <dave_> thank you intuitivenipple
[12:11] <Beyond_The_Grave> So, nobody knows, man this stinks as support
[12:11] <Prez> I new in ubuntu world, i used to use rc.local to get startup stuff, what is the equivalent in ubuntu?
[12:11] <stefg> Beyond_The_Grave: there's something wrong on Windows, *of course* (nbut let's not go into /that/ )
[12:12] <Beyond_The_Grave> Ok, but I'm talking about on Ubuntu why it won't let me connect to a WPA network
 i am joined, too 8)

[12:12] <hmmman> today is my first hour with ubuntu anyone have any good pointers for learning more?
[12:12] <freeza> Beyond_The_Grave, I had the same problem with my atheros card and accessing my wpa2 network at home. I had to set it up manually go here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202834
[12:12] <m1r> how can i see ubuntu shared folders on windows PC ?
[12:12] <crimsun> necrodrako: use alsamixer -c1 -V, or select the correct device using gnome's volume control applet
[12:12] <Beyond_The_Grave> Was that on 7.04 freeza?
[12:13] <ace_ace> Beyond_The_Grave: http://www.google.com/search?q=ubuntu+feisty+wpa&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:official&client=firefox-a

[12:18] <d4rkmonkey> thanks jrib :D
[12:18] <ace_ace> vmuser: rpm is not for ubuntu
[12:18] <ace_ace> !rpm
[12:18] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[12:18] <lontra> vmuser: cause you're on a debian based system and it doesn't use rpm?
[12:18] <ace_ace> !apt
[12:18] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)

[12:26] <vmuser> is kernel headers part of the kernel-package?
[12:26] <ace_ace> vmuser: then it not installed... try 'apt-get install linux-headers'

[12:29] <Stormx2> ori_: yeah i am
[12:29] <stefg> vmuser: what are you actually trying to achieve. you apparently need some kernel modules to be built. which ones?
[12:29] <Seenep> anyone know how to get aterm's transparency feature to work?
[12:29] <nickrud> man, ubotu's picked up a lot of good factoids since I was gone
[12:30] <ori_> Stormx2: so configure worked and I hit make
[12:30] <rr_lap> alteroo: when i turn on my computer they are all rearraged and they were locked when i placed them
[12:30] <ori_> Stormx2: and it did mention SSL
[12:30] <Jawshie> Ah well, thanks anyways ace_ace
[12:30] <Jawshie> Byebye
[12:30] <Seenep> well, i kinda enabled it but it's messed up
[12:30] <ori_> Stormx2: It's making right now
[12:30] <Stormx2> ori_, did you get messages at the end of ./configure?
[12:30] <rr_lap> why does gnome screw up the order of the gidgets on the top bar like clock and logout and stuff, i lock them into place
[12:30] <ori_> Stormx2: yea
[12:30] <tim167> ace_ace: this is sooo silly: apparenlty the built-in network card doesnt reset when i reboot the computer, unless i TOTALLY turn the power off (or unplug the ac), now it just simply works again!
[12:30] <Stormx2> ori_: Did is say you had the correct libs for ssl installed?
 first you have to get in the pull-down menu on your desktop - the point "places" and hold with the left mouse-button the point "computer" - pull it on your Desktop ...
[12:31] <ori_> Stormx2: yes
[12:31] <stefg> rr_lap: because gnome has an attitude sometimes
[12:31] <taime1> why does the terminal server client in ubuntu ask you for domain / client hostname and all that?
[12:31] <taime1> cant i simply typein the ip and the password?

[12:55] <dountby> bye everyone
[12:55] <xipietotec> hahaha, okay, so using 915resolution to replace my 640x480 with a higher resolution caused 640x480 to disappear off my screen resolution options
[12:55] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, no probs, ill catch ye some other time
[12:55] <IntuitiveNipple> Give installing those drivers a go!
[12:55] <movva> can i run windows real player package on ubuntu using UBUNTU
[12:55] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, Im about to do just that
[12:55] <stefg> movva: no
[12:56] <movva> can i run utorrent
[12:56] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, wondering how to unload those drivers from before
[12:56] <stefg> movva: only with wine
[12:56] <movva> yes
[12:56] <movva> can i run real player using wine?
[12:57] <IntuitiveNipple> Blacklist them, reboot, install the newly built drivers, and reboot
[12:57] <danan> speaking of wine, you can run steam with it right?
[12:57] <IntuitiveNipple> Make sure the new driver modules names aren't the same as the blacklisted ones - if they are, remove them from the blacklist!
[12:57] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, ok, gonna go find out how to blacklist them
[12:57] <stefg> movva: this is a support chaneelfor ubuntu, not fake-windows :-) google is your friend
[12:57] <movva> Ok
[12:57] <sarixe> hi, i searched through my xorg log, and i found something utterly confusing.  it's configured to run on PCI:1:5:0, but seems to be ignoring that and going to PCI:1:5:1.  any help?
[12:57] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: edit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[12:57] <movva> sorry for bugging
[12:58] <deccadoggy> thanks guys!
[12:58] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: Add them to the end as 2 lines "blacklist ath_pci" and "blacklist "ath_hal"
[12:58] <cafuego> deccadoggy: installed ok?
[12:58] <Paddy_EIRE> thx IntuitiveNipple you have been extremely helpful
[12:59] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: When you reboot, the existing ones won't be loaded so when you run the build/install, it'll be able to over-write the existing ones if they have the same name
[12:59] <escargo> someone knows something about a acpi bug ad the  feisty fan kernel?
[12:59] <sarixe> (WW) fglrx: No matching Device section for instance (BusID PCI:1:5:1) found
[12:59] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: But once installed, you might have to remove one or both blacklists if the new modules share the same names
[01:00] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, I get it, then just take them of the blacklist again
[01:00] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: You can install a  module without rebooting by, as the superuser, doing "modprobe modulename"
[01:00] <Paddy_EIRE> oh ok
[01:00] <Paddy_EIRE> nice one
[01:00] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: And remember to check the end of kern.log to see any messages when you do, using "tail /var/log/kern.log"
[01:01] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: And then you can check what modules were loaded using "lsmod | grep ath"
[01:02] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: To build the drivers, download the file and unpack it, then install the Linux build files using Synaptic: "Build-essentials" "linux-headers" "pkg-configure" (I think thats it)
[01:02] <coded1> I have ubuntu ultimate ed, and a radeon 9800pro, I believe I remember there was some boot codes to get the card / resolution going, does any one remember them?
[01:02] <coded1> or have alternate methods?
[01:03] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, i think i have the build packages
[01:03] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: Then, in theory you can change into the extracted drivers directory, and do "make" then, as superuser, "make install"
[01:04] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, what about ath_rate_sample does that need blacklisted
[01:04] <kmarius> hi, i'd like to restrict my little sister (2nd user on this computer) to a certain time (4pm to 9pm) ... is there an easy way of doing that?
[01:04] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: I didn't notice that in the output of lsmod
[01:04] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, ok, thx
[01:05] <sercik> i can't access sound as user
[01:05] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: But maybe it would have been loaded if the rest was working, so if you think so, do it :)
[01:05] <sercik> probably i have launched a bad command "usermod -g vboxusers sercik"
[01:05] <nj786> how do you update the forecast
[01:05] <mkeller> Hello, I also cannot get my sound to work.  I have a SB Live! 24 bit card.
[01:05] <magnui> anyone here made a Counter strike source server?
[01:05] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, ok, see you later :)
[01:05] <nj786> on desktop
[01:06] <nj786> it has a ? mark
[01:06] <IntuitiveNipple> night :D
[01:06] <NemesisD> this may be an odd question but my boss has a tape drive with data that was recorded under unix, is there any tape software for ubuntu that we could use to get data from it
[01:06] <sercik> no my sound works good but i can't use sound server ad user
[01:06] <NemesisD> whoops
[01:06] <NemesisD> this may be an odd question but my boss has a tape drive with data that was recorded under unix, is there any tape software for ubuntu that we could use to get data from it?
[01:06] <aum> hi - are there any specific annoyances with xubuntu I should be aware of from people's experience? (I'm choosing a *buntu for my wife's slow older laptop (1.8GHz, 256MB RAM))
[01:07] <mkeller> oh, well mine doesn't work at all.  I think it worked while running as a live CD, but now that it's installed, it doesn't.
[01:07] <rr_lap> any cool themes people suggest?
[01:07] <nj786> anybody?
[01:07] <sercik> please someone help me hot to configure users and groups correctly in which group i need to add user to work??
[01:07] <nj786> how do you set the forecast
[01:07] <EpP> heyyyy
[01:07] <rkhessel> crap nipple left
[01:08] <barbarella_me> rr_lap:yes..hijs bakkie
[01:08] <EpP> anyone know if ubuntu is stable on the xbox?
[01:08] <rkhessel> ne1 else know anything about building modules?
[01:08] <skunkworks> ?
[01:08] <stefg> kmarius: interestig question, i don't think that 's *easy*. you'd need a script which checks which time of day it is to enable or disable the user account... look at crontab. another option would be to let her log in, but if it's not the right time to log her out again immediatly. that would involve a script sourced by .bashrc. Nay pros with an opinion on that?
[01:08] <scoobydoo28139> wow this stuff is way over my head
[01:08] <Sam_> hey guys
[01:09] <bruenig> !howdy | Sam_
[01:09] <ubotu> Sam_: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[01:09] <scoobydoo28139> hey sam
[01:09] <Sam_> i got a question, i just started a program with the ./ command, now when that program starts anything i type in goes to that procame
[01:09] <Sam_> program
[01:09] <Sam_> how do iget back to normal command line?? so i can start another program or whatever??
[01:09] <rkhessel> ctrl-c?
[01:09] <Sam_> but i want to make that program still runing??
[01:09] <jrib> Sam_: do you want to kill it or put it in the background?
[01:09] <Sam_> put it in the background
[01:09] <jrib> Sam_: ctrl-z  then do 'bg'
[01:09] <larsso_> hii!!
[01:09] <bruenig> Sam_, for some clarification, ./ is not a command, . is the current directory, so ./something runs "something" which is in the current directory
[01:10] <Sam_> kkZ thxs
[01:10] <sercik> alsaconf
[01:10] <v3n0m> sa
[01:10] <barbarella_me> sam:crtl + c to terminate
[01:10] <sercik> Sam you can launch the program with & to the end
[01:10] <jrib> Sam_: google for "bash job control" for more info
[01:10] <larsso_> i'm need help some install wine for dos programs! :)
[01:10] <Jack3> hey
[01:10] <sercik> for example vim &
[01:10] <Jack3> somethin is really wrong with my login
[01:10] <Jack3> i type my password in the login screen, it turns black, then it goes back to the login screen
[01:10] <larsso_> i'm need help some install wine for DOS programs! :)
[01:10] <Jack3> ive tried restarting and all
[01:10] <Jack3> its never done this
[01:10] <coded1> any one get an ati radeon working with ubuntu?
[01:11] <Jack3> does anyone know?
[01:11] <barbarella_me> Jack3:what is the usser?
[01:11] <rkhessel> hello y'all, I'm trying to build a module for my RAID card, it worked fine in Dapper
[01:11] <Jack3> michael
[01:11] <v3n0m> coded1: I'm just wondering what your problem is specifically..
[01:11] <rkhessel> but the build complains now about stuff that is in .config, but is now not in config.h
[01:11] <Jack3> and i put my password in correctly  i know
[01:11] <rkhessel> any idea why?
[01:11] <phy3> Jack3 -- sounds like X won't run for you
[01:11] <larsso_> drivers  OPENGL sis 760GX working in linux??
[01:11] <barbarella_me> Jack3:what is the user?
[01:12] <Jack3> barbarella, my user name is michael....
[01:12] <coded1> v3n0m: my card shows up in lspci but my resolution is locked by X at 640
[01:12] <yagami> Hi all. Is it possible to people on my homenetwork to share the dictionary server on my ubuntu box over web interface?
[01:12] <yagami> if not, then is it possible any other way?
[01:12] <stefg> !wine | larsso_
[01:12] <ubotu> larsso_: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[01:12] <v3n0m> o, ok, over my head =p
[01:12] <v3n0m> but I also have an ATI card and I can't get ubuntu to work
[01:12] <mirra> is there an easy way to combine open office word documents?
[01:13] <barbarella_me> Jack3:start in single mode and reset your password.
[01:13] <Jack3> single mode?
[01:13] <rkhessel> yagami, what is a dictionary server?
[01:13] <yagami> ATI sucks. stick with nvidia :)
[01:13] <yagami> dictd
[01:13] <Jack3> phy3, the only changes i did were install wine from source
[01:13] <grimboy> stefg, Thanks
[01:13] <Jack3> and then i had an odd problem
[01:13] <john_> yagami: sound advise
[01:13] <Jack3> it showed my harddrive as having 0 bytes free
[01:13] <Jack3> and i deleted 600mb of files, and it still said 0 free
[01:13] <Jack3> so i rebooted
[01:13] <coded1> v3n0m: there are "cheat codes" that worked for me once but i have forgotten them it was something like, xdriver=ati, nodcc, ....
[01:13] <Jack3> and now it just goes to the login screen and wont go past that
[01:14] <bashologist> Using Feisty. When I try to import a svg to path in blender I get this error: ImportError: No module named math but my python has the math module. Above this error there's also this: Only built-in modules are available. Some scripts may not run. So how do I fix this?
[01:14] <v3n0m> oh
[01:14] <larsso_> tks.. ubotu!!
[01:14] <brianski> anyone know of a virtualization solution that actually works on amd64? virtualbox doesn't, and vmware is failing for some reason that the vmware techs haven't been able to discern
[01:14] <Jack3> do you know it would do that?
[01:14] <coded1> it wouldn't be that quick in beryl but it would look nicer :)
[01:14] <yagami> ok, sound advise? whats that supposed to mean or do? :P
[01:14] <john_> yagami: stick with nvidia
[01:14] <larsso_> for MS-DOS programs wine can't run
[01:15] <barbarella_me> Jack3:bad hardware or partitioning
[01:15] <Jack3> what?
[01:15] <phy3> jack3 -- there are login options on the bottom left of the login screen
[01:15] <Jack3> it was working just fine before
[01:15] <Jack3> left bottom?
[01:15] <Jack3> ithe pull down box?
[01:15] <coded1> good thing apparently AMD+ATI are open sourcing their radeon drivers :):):)
[01:15] <yagami> john_: not one of those gaming buffs- but i still hear people raving about how good ATI is over nvidia. so in that sense, we're all in a loss here
[01:15] <brianski> coded1: yeah but when?
[01:15] <coded1> lol
[01:15] <Jack3> in the pull down box it doesnt really have any different options
[01:16] <coded1> thats a good question
[01:16] <coded1> :)
[01:16] <rkhessel> yagami: do you want to make dictd requests from other boxes but transport it over http, or just be able to look up words on a web server?
[01:16] <brianski> and will the ati cards folks have now reap the benefits of the open source driver
[01:16] <v3n0m> as
[01:16] <barbarella_me> coded1:amd...love it
[01:16] <v3n0m> s
[01:16] <brianski> and what license will the driver be under
[01:16] <brianski> etc
[01:16] <brianski> etc
[01:16] <Jack3> helo ?//////////////////////
[01:16] <v3n0m> is the linux-swap partition supposed to be a 'sub-partition' of another partition with an extended filesystem?
[01:16] <mirra> is there an easy way to combine open office word documents??
[01:16] <barbarella_me> Jack3:that is long dir
[01:17] <Jack3> lol
[01:17] <Jack3> i dont see why the hdd could be bad
[01:17] <coded1> v3n0m: i dont think it matters
[01:17] <stefg> !swap | v3n0m
[01:17] <ubotu> v3n0m: swap is used to move unused programs and data out of main memory to make your system faster. It can also be used as extra memory if you don't have enough. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq for more info
[01:17] <Jack3> isnt there a repair option
[01:17] <john_> yagami: I ran hidef video in linux with a 2500 Athlon and a Radeon 9600 with almost 100% cpu with a geforce 4 that dropped to 45% with the oss drivers.
[01:17] <Jack3> or something i can use
[01:17] <barbarella_me> Jack3:maybe the cables
[01:17] <Zambezi> Anyone having problem with cupsys in Dapper? I can't access localhost:631. :-(
[01:17] <rkhessel> v3n0m: swap could be a primary partition
[01:17] <rkhessel> it does not matter
[01:17] <Jack3> dude im running windows off the same hdd
[01:17] <Jack3> its on my laptop
[01:18] <yagami> rkhessel: not exactly over web server- i've not installed apache yet. you know - am looking for some application (cross-compatible for the windows boxes) that could point to my box on the local area network- and from there retreieve definition of words off of dictd.
[01:18] <Jack3> i resized my windows partition and have been running linux off the smaller partition
[01:18] <rkhessel> v3n0m: probably best to use a logical partition inside an extended one though
[01:18] <coded1> i think it would be funny if the OSS video drivers work better for linux then windows closed drivers
[01:18] <larsso_> eeehy  do you know spanish room for help in UBUNTU????
[01:18] <IJ-DaKar> hi, need some help. wanna know if i can install X11 in Feisty-server

[01:26] <rob1n> EpP: this is #ubuntu :)
[01:26] <wil> i recently downloaded ubuntu studio, was hoping somone could tell me if there is a program out there that would let me green screen effect a video?
[01:27] <EpP> rob1n, any all you here are more knowledgeable in general
[01:27] <aum> what are the drawbacks of xubuntu?
[01:27] <mirroray> you could split the video into frame-by-frame and run it through a gimp script to cut out the green?
[01:27] <spl0it> I'm having some trouble getting sound to work properly on my pc - I have a sb live, amd athlon 1.4gig, and when I type cat /proc/asound/cards my sound card is at 1 instead of 0, any idea what I should change to get that sorted out?
[01:27] <wil> that would be a very tedious task
[01:28] <phixnay> aum: it's not as feature rich as gnome or kde I think
[01:28] <wil> hoping there was a video editing program out there that allowed it easily
[01:28] <scoobydoo28139> so with wine do i need windows to be mounted also?
[01:28] <john_> scoobydoo28139: nope
[01:28] <rob1n> scoobydoo28139: no
[01:28] <Spo8> I installed the 64 bit version of firefox only to find that there's no support for flash.  How do I uninstall this and get the 32 bit version installed?  Does synaptic automatically get 64 bit versions if you're on a 64 system?
[01:29] <phixnay> Spo8: flash works on it
[01:29] <scoobydoo28139> roblin can i just put in a cd and install?
[01:29] <phixnay> Spo8: I'm uisng it right now
[01:29] <lonnie> John: I tried that and it didn't work.
[01:29] <scoobydoo28139> ok , do i get wine in add remove?

[01:30] <Spo8> phixnay: Whenever I go to the flash site, it's only for 32 bit versions of firefox.  The customer service person said the same, and that I should install the 32 bit version then get their 32 bit flash for linux.

[01:44] <JoeMorris> crap

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

[01:46] <john_> lonnie: once that is installed you will have automatix in the applications menu under system tools
[01:46] <lonnie> Ubotu: You're right it failed.
[01:46] <EADG> marrakech: do you have synaptic open? Close it. Did you use the --reinstall?

[01:50] <ace_ace> anathematic:  apt-get install proftpd, for instance
[01:50] <EADG> marrakech: K, hold.
[01:50] <marrakech> ok
[01:50] <anathematic> ace_ace:  proftpd any good? =)
[01:50] <anathematic> well i guess it is else you wouldn't give that example
[01:50] <Reodlu> hello, who can help me to do run ASP.NET in Ubuntu??
[01:50] <marrakech> EADG, probably i can't remove it because is not working... :p
[01:50] <lasking> i want know upgrade to 7.10 safe or no
[01:50] <scoobydoo28139> lol ace_ace your away
[01:50] <marrakech> i can try uninstalling it by dpkg
[01:50] <realcoolguy> in my xorg.conf file, the device never changes, and I'm always stuck using Mesa drivers instead of the ATI ones (and I'm following the steps outlined on other pages) and I don't know what to do anymore...
[01:50] <PriceChild> lasking, no
[01:50] <ace_ace> anathematic: ie been using it for 7 years or so...
[01:50] <yoda2031> is there a command-line compiler for linux anywhere?  pref. one I can apt-get I've had my fair share of tarballs today :P
[01:51] <lasking> thanks
[01:51] <ace_ace> anathematic:  i have no experience with others

[01:51] <Anubie> Is there any command to figure out what are the devices installed on linux?
[01:51] <yoda2031> ace_ace, have it, what's the command for it in terminal?
[01:51] <EADG> marrakech: looking up the 'fix' option.
[01:51] <mirrorain> can someone tell me why every time I try to make the driver for a winmodem it gives me a "No rule to make target" error when it enters my source headers directory?
[01:52] <mirrorain> I have the proper source headers
[01:52] <marrakech> EADG, you mean aptitude fix ?
[01:52] <ace_ace> yoda2031: depends... normally 1.'less README' 2. './configure' 3. 'make; make test' 4. 'make install'
[01:52] <scoobydoo28139> well that was interesting, futile , but interesting
[01:52] <anathematic> ace_ace:  where abouts is the config file for proftpd located?

[01:58] <usser> mirrorain: is there any particular reason to compile it?
[01:58] <marrakech> Pelo,  //var/cache/apt
[01:59] <Pelo> marrakech, that'S just a cache for packages that were downloaded and installed by apt,  it should not give you problems , but let me see if I can get you that file you seem to be missing
[01:59] <usser> mirrorain: its supposed to be in the repos
[01:59] <scoobydoo28139> <<feels stupid>> how you use paste bin?
[01:59] <ace_ace> marrakech: just try: 'sudo mkdir -p /var/cache/apt/archives'
[01:59] <mirrorain> well, I can't get my modem to work, so I can't use synaptic or anything

[02:01] <skyfaller> nom_: it's currently disconnected, and 127.0.0.1 is still returning pings

[02:02] <nom_> Skyfaller, hmm
[02:02] <Pelo> gif89apro,  as I recall it's an app for devs to creat gui ,  but you can install it from synaptic if you have an app that says it's missing

[02:03] <skyfaller> nom_: it said on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessTroubleShootingGuide#connection  that I should try changing the channel... but I don't see any info on how to do that
[02:03] <gif89apro> Pelo: yeah, just did that... maybe I have to restart x to get it to work?
[02:03] <mirrorain> becuase I can't install a winmodem in ununtu
[02:03] <fsckr> does anyone who uses xchat have a recommendation on a sysinfo script?
[02:03] <Pelo> gif89apro,  no idea,  try see what happens
[02:03] <skyfaller> nom_: also, I'm not clear on whether that would help with my problems acquiring an IP address
[02:03] <fsckr> sorry wrong channel
[02:03] <cafuego> mirrorain: Not easily. Maybe with apt-zip in ubuntu, but you'll need apt-zip first.
[02:03] <marrakech> bye
[02:03] <scoobydoo28139> ace_ace: yes i got it, tks, now ,um need the terminal command line for boot text
[02:03] <Pelo> mirrorain,  search for winmodem in the forum www.ubuntuforums.com

[02:05] <superkirbyartist> Can anyone help me please?
[02:06] <Pelo> superkirbyartist,  can you open it in someting else ? like totem ?
[02:06] <ace_ace> superkirbyartist: sorry, i can not help you!
[02:06] <cafuego> mirrorain: http://www.linuxant.com/drivers/
[02:06] <superkirbyartist> Polo, VLC takes less than 15 seconds to load on my Pentium MMX 266mhz.  I don't want to try anything else.
[02:06] <mirrorain> I'm checking that now, but intel has put out its own drivers, and I've got 2 from linmodem.org
[02:07] <cafuego> ok
[02:07] <mirrorain> but all of those fail when I go to make
[02:07] <Reodlu> hello
[02:07] <bruenig> superkirbyartist, well vlc has its own library of codecs for the most part, so if it isn't working in it, it won't work in it
[02:07] <superkirbyartist> Plus, the movie is "apparently" playing, but no pictures are shown, just a black screen.
[02:07] <Pelo> superkirbyartist, try  asking in #vlc then
[02:07] <Reodlu> who can help me with apache?
[02:07] <cafuego> mirrorain: Yeah, they will all want the kernel-headers and devel stuff :-(
[02:07] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig, finally tries to help me after telling me to "sudo rm *.*"!
[02:07] <ace_ace> Reodlu: what do you want to know ? apache 1 or 2? maybe join #apache ?
[02:08] <tunganet> How do i change my ip?
[02:08] <skyfaller> Pelo: well, I'm in ubuntu-wireless if you want to join me :)
[02:08] <superkirbyartist> Pelo no one in #vlc

[02:08] <Reodlu> ?
[02:08] <grout> can someone help me out with kiba-dock?
[02:08] <JoeMorris> damn
[02:08] <skyfaller> Pelo: I don't suppose you know how to change the channel on a wireless?
[02:08] <Pelo> skyfaller,  I can't help  I've never dabbled with wireless in ubuntu or anywhere else , sorry
[02:08] <grout> I cant find out how to add objects to the dock
[02:08] <Reodlu> do you know ace_ace?
[02:08] <JoeMorris> :)

[02:09] <superkirbyartist> Bruenig, your point is...
[02:09] <gif89apro> grout: how did you install it, i've been trying to figure out how
[02:09] <Pelo> superkirbyartist, check their site for info on a channel or for a furum where you can inquire about problems with their prog
[02:09] <Reodlu> well...I have found a lot information in google, but not good information
[02:09] <grout> gif89apro: using apt-get
[02:09] <mirrorain> well, to the best of my knowledge I have all the kernel headers, how large are the combined build-essential files?
[02:09] <bruenig> there was no point, I was wondering if you will ever figure out that simply saying something is true even when done over and over doesn't then make it true
[02:09] <Pelo> skyfaller,  I have no notion whatsoever on how a wireless connection operates
[02:09] <gif89apro> grout: did you have to edit the source list first?
[02:10] <mirrorain> becuase I'm on a 21 kbits/s connection
[02:10] <Reodlu> I have instaled mod_mono in ubuntu but it's not work
[02:10] <ace_ace> Reodlu: The first hit in google looks promising, didn it work ?
[02:10] <grout> gif89apro: yea
[02:10] <skyfaller> *sigh*
[02:10] <ace_ace> Reodlu: is aps.net = mono ? i don think so !
[02:10] <Pelo> skyfaller, check in the forum for help ,  there is a lot of stuff in there , best start by doing a search for your hardware make and model

[02:11] <mirrorain> is there a way to get the buil-essential package for my distribution from within windows?
[02:11] <JoeMorris> i wish my ubuntu 7.04 cd worked :(
[02:11] <Flannel> mirrorain: you don't need it.  It's on the Ubuntu CD
[02:11] <Reodlu> mod_mono is a pluging to apache
[02:11] <ace_ace> Reodlu: did you try the first hit in the google search I snet you ? they talk about aspdotnet module
[02:11] <Pelo> mirrorain,   it should be on the live cd ,  you can install if from tehre if your connection doesn't work
[02:12] <mirrorain> is it installed by default?  becuase gcc won't compile and I don't know why
[02:12] <ace_ace> JoeMorris: mine doesn work either.... I am waiting download of another....
[02:12] <Flannel> mirrorain: sudo apt-cdrom add && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:12] <ace_ace> JoeMorris: meanwhile helping out a bit...
[02:12] <mirrorain> thank you very much, I will go try that
[02:12] <Flannel> mirrorain: the first adds teh CDrom as a repository, the second updates your cache, the third installs it
[02:12] <Reodlu> well I cannot go to google.com coz it go google.es directly :-S
[02:12] <JoeMorris> ace:  im sure after google summer of code, it will be fixeD :)
[02:12] <JoeMorris> its only may now
[02:12] <JoeMorris> so next one should fix it
[02:13] <Pelo> mirrorain,  it is not installe by default,  but boot up ubuntu then put the live cd in  and sudo apt-get update and sudo apt-get install build-essential
[02:13] <JoeMorris> a bug this bad wont last

[02:14] <ace_ace> !kubuntu
[02:14] <ubotu> Kubuntu is Ubuntu with KDE, the K Desktop Environment, instead of Gnome. See http://kubuntu.org for more information - For support: #kubuntu - See also !KDE

It works fine with the LIVECD, and it installed OK, but thats my issue. atm im in LiveCD...

[02:16] <ace_ace> tyler2435: you can get a little bit more info by editing the boot menu, removing 'quiet' and splash' . Just boot, and in the grub menu do some 'e'.

[02:26] <ace_ace> EADG: still waiting for kubuntu to download...
[02:26] <ace_ace> steel_lday: looks good... just run 'make' in the soruce directory of your program!
[02:26] <scoobydoo28139> ace_ace: it says I am spaming the paste bin
[02:27] <jrib> epw: equivs, but why?
[02:27] <ace_ace> scoobydoo28139: hilarious!
[02:27] <epw> jrib: sun-java5-jdk is pulling in sun-java5-demo, which is pulling in X, don't want X
[02:27] <epw> jrib: so i'm gonna try faking sun-java5-demo
[02:28] <ace_ace> scoobydoo28139: does it say default' somewhere in the menu.lst ? you need to look at all 'image' lines (no # ) and then count from 0.
[02:28] <scoobydoo28139> ace_ace: it says for me to enable java ,,,how?
[02:28] <ace_ace> scoobydoo28139:who or what says that ?
[02:28] <steel_lady> ace_ace, did you see it?
[02:28] <Garcia> is ubuntu really better than windows?
[02:28] <dibblego> is there something like MacOS quicksilver for ubuntu?
[02:28] <tehpunkprodigy> I tried to load a different sound card driver on my computer and ubuntu cannot find my sound card, how can I restore the default driver that came with ubuntu?
[02:28] <ace_ace> you can do join #scoobydoo28139 and paste ti there !
[02:28] <scoobydoo28139> ace_ace:the paste bin
[02:28] <AeroSteve> irc://irc.hackint0sh.org
[02:28] <Garcia> im thinking of switching but i dont think i should
[02:28] <Yasuo> anyone knows about the qemu-vnc-server and how to get it working? i cannot connect to it
[02:29] <dibblego> Garcia, is anything worse than windows?
[02:29] <Garcia> thats what i always say
[02:29] <crdlb> scoobydoo28139: just use a different pastebin, such as pastebin.ca
[02:29] <scoobydoo28139> omg this is so much fun lol
[02:29] <Garcia> but, will ubuntu be able to run applications and games i run in windows?
[02:29] <Garcia> likes battlefield 2, nvidia, AIM...
[02:29] <ace_ace> scoobydoo28139: just type /join #scoobydoo28139 in your irc!
[02:30] <Garcia> i really like how the thing looks, but will it be able to run my games and stuff?
[02:30] <Catoptromancy> could use wine on nearly all games
[02:30] <eternal_p> Garcia: applications, I'm 99% sure you will find everything for appications, games, it depends, some yes, some no
[02:30] <steel_lady> ok, does somebody know how to do makefile compile by hand for things that are not obtained by apt-get?
[02:30] <scoobydoo28139> ace_ace:http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21091/
[02:30] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, ./configure    make    makeinstall
[02:30] <Catoptromancy> usuallly
[02:30] <Garcia> but i wanna be sure, i dont wanna switch to ubuntu, to find out i cant run my windows games, and then having to somehow switch back to windows
[02:31] <scoobydoo28139> wow never spamed a paste bin b4
[02:31] <Catoptromancy> Garcia, check winehq and see if the games are on the list
[02:31] <Garcia> k, thnx
[02:31] <eternal_p> check out..cenga it isn't free, but has a great list of what games they support
[02:31] <crdlb> Garcia: dual boot at least at first
[02:31] <steel_lady> catoptromancy, do you want to dedicate some time to me so I can explain what is happening and where am I in the problem?
 but, will ubuntu be able to run applications and games i run in windows? # yes and no
[02:31] <Catoptromancy> what are you trying to compile?
 likes battlefield 2, nvidia, AIM... # ---
[02:31] <akao> no
[02:32] <ace_ace> scoobydoo28139:try 'default 3' in the beginning of the menu.lst. Just try it. I can guarantee.
[02:32] <kbrooks> Garcia, aim is unnecessary
[02:32] <kbrooks> Garcia, there is gaim
[02:32] <Doctor_Zoidberg> yep GAIM works fine, so does Kopete for AIM users
[02:32] <eternal_p> Garcia: I prefer Kopete, but a lot of people like gaim

[02:32] <Garcia> cool
[02:32] <scoobydoo28139> ok did you read ace_ace?
[02:32] <Catoptromancy> Garcia, http://appdb.winehq.org/
[02:32] <ace_ace> Garcia: try dual-boot.
[02:32] <ace_ace> !dual-boot

[02:32] <rollerskatejamms> does aptitude have a dist-upgrade command?
[02:33] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, what are you trying to compile?
[02:33] <Doctor_Zoidberg> actually, GAIM works better than AIM does
[02:33] <Catoptromancy> it uses AIM account, but GUI is better
[02:33] <Doctor_Zoidberg> yep
[02:33] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, I have one astronomy package. It is very important for me to do the work ordered by my boss. I am being tortured by it several days already and he will kill me
[02:33] <BioDeath>  nm everyone, it all seems to be working for now??
[02:33] <Doctor_Zoidberg> it also stays connected much longer too
[02:33] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, link to site?
[02:33] <Alonea> Garcia: even easier is VMware.
[02:34] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, the name is miriad package, wait
[02:34] <Alonea> Garcia: You can run an OS inside another OS. Like you would a program. Vmware server. tis fun
[02:34] <Garcia> i think imma stick to windows, even though i dont like it, i mean imma have to go through alot of stuff trying to find out what works or not, new programs, having to install nvidia the manual way
[02:35] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, here: http://www.astro.umd.edu/~teuben/miriad/
[02:35] <kbrooks> Alonea, vmware server is not "easier"
[02:35] <nibsa1242> gatornibs
[02:35] <kbrooks> Alonea, it's harder and proprietary.
[02:35] <ace_ace> Garcia: did you try dual-boot ? You can have windows and ubuntu next to eacht other, you can choose when you boot.
[02:35] <Alonea> kbrooks: is for me. definately helps when your windows breaks often.
[02:35] <danan> Garcia: You can dual-boot between the two, so you don't have to leave Windows forever
[02:35] <kbrooks> Garcia, there is ##windows for you.
[02:35] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, give me about 10 min, ill boot onto my Linux PC
[02:36] <Deshi> I am having a problem here booting ubuntu I got it all installed but its supposed to be a headless system and when i detach the monitor the system will hang during boot until i reattach the monitor
[02:36] <Alonea> kbrooks: was a breeze to install and its free.
[02:36] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, the package you get doing to anonymous ftp area and then downloading the one with 32 ending
[02:36] <Pelo> how do you do a check of a fat32 drive in ubuntu ?
[02:36] <ace_ace> Alonea: vmware: depends what is your host system. If it linux, you still cant do directx trough vmware !?
[02:36] <Doctor_Zoidberg> i've dual booted for a while with linux and windows (jusy make sure you install windows first because of the MBR)
[02:36] <nibsa1242> can anyone help me mount my sd card (or make it auto mount)... it used to work in Edgy but wont work in Feisty 90%+ of the time
[02:36] <LjL> Pelo: fsck.vfat
[02:37] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, try  typing "./configure" into terminal thats in directory of makefile
[02:37] <ace_ace> Deshi:are you starting a window manager ?
[02:37] <Pelo> LjL,  how do I specify the drive ?
[02:37] <kbrooks> Alonea, vmware server is not "free"
[02:37] <Catoptromancy> ill brb
[02:37] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, thank you. have in mind that this installation needs you install a lot of compilers and stuff apart
[02:37] <eternal_p> kbrooks: yes it is
[02:37] <LjL> Pelo, uh, just like you would with a normal fsck... just type it as the parameter. besides, it's got a manpage :P
[02:37] <kbrooks> eternal_p, in terms of speech, it isn't
[02:37] <ace_ace> Alonea: vmware player is !
[02:37] <Alonea> kbrooks: yeah it is...there are pay versions, but they do free versions on their website too.
[02:37] <Doctor_Zoidberg> i thought the vmware PLAYER was free, but the server is not
[02:37] <kbrooks> ace_ace, still no
[02:37] <kbrooks> Doctor_Zoidberg, non-free
[02:37] <eternal_p> Doctor: nope, they are both free
[02:37] <nevermind> does anyone knows if it's possible to get the MAC address for a shutdown machine?
[02:37] <eternal_p> server and player
[02:37] <kbrooks> *sigh*
[02:37] <eternal_p> workstation 6 is not
[02:37] <Pelo> LjL,  tk
[02:38] <ace_ace> kbrooks: sorry, i meant gratis.
[02:38] <Doctor_Zoidberg> with the player you need the vmx files which it does not create
[02:38] <nibsa1242> Doctor_Zoidberg: I think its only free as in beer (for the player)
[02:38] <ace_ace> kbrooks: better use qemu then eh ?
[02:38] <kbrooks> ace_ace, and i meant free as in speech
[02:38] <kbrooks> ace_ace, or virtual box
[02:38] <kbrooks> bbl
[02:38] <Doctor_Zoidberg> it works fine, but u need to find your own vmx file
[02:38] <Alonea> http://www.vmware.com/products/free_virtualization.html
[02:38] <eternal_p> ace_ace: qemu or virtualbox, but none are as complete as vmware server I think
[02:38] <nibsa1242> ace_ace kbrooks I've had acceptable results with qemu
[02:38] <eternal_p> especially with USB
[02:39] <ace_ace> Doctor_Zoidberg: and you can create vmx files for free with qemu :-)
[02:39] <Alonea> see, its free. only have to pay for support if you happened to want it.
[02:39] <steel_lady> catoptromancy, the result is a lot of output that ends with reporting od creating Makefile and compile.generic adjusted to my system. now it has to be compiled and linked
[02:39] <Doctor_Zoidberg> yeah, I'm going to start looking into virtaul pc options
[02:39] <nibsa1242> can anyone help me mount my sd card (or make it auto mount)... it used to work in Edgy but wont work in Feisty 90%+ of the time
[02:39] <Alias|> Quick question: I have downloaded the kernel sources package, libncurses, fakeroot, etc., and I'm in make menuconfig. Are the pre-selected options I find there defaults? if I compile the kernel with the options that are selected, will it be the same as my current (default Ubuntu) kernel?
[02:39] <Doctor_Zoidberg> i want to install DSL on a USB drive
[02:39] <ace_ace> nibsa1242: sorry, no clue...:-(
[02:40] <nevermind> does anyone knows if it's possible to get the MAC address for a shutdown machine?
[02:40] <Doctor_Zoidberg> the virtual option they use is qemu
[02:40] <hiromitz> my wacom isnt functioning correctly
[02:40] <hiromitz> T,T anyone know how to fix it?
[02:40] <Adam_G> Hi all. I have an odd problem - my sound stopeed working, seemingly without cause. It's a laptop and the beeps still work (for sound bells) but there is no sound whatsoever.
[02:40] <Alias|> nevermind: Is it written on the machine or the NIC? If not, then no, sorry... the machine has to be on and report its MAC address to you.
[02:40] <ace_ace> nevermind: you mean a mchine that is turned off ? no power ? mybe it is printed on the card ?
[02:40] <nibsa1242> Doctor_Zoidberg: I'm not sure if its ideal. But I think what I'm going to look into in the future is something like seemless qemu, but instead of using qemu I'll have an actual windows server box around to run the aps from.
[02:40] <Deffy> nevermind: how recent has another machine communicated with it
[02:41] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, type "make"
[02:41] <Deffy> it may still be in the ARP table
[02:41] <Adam_G> I've tried restarting the alsad service, and even rebooting the computer - no change
[02:41] <fotophocus__> Hi everyone.. Ubuntu newbie here, as of 10 mins ago :)
[02:41] <Adam_G> there doesn't seem to be esd or oss running either
[02:41] <ace_ace> fotophocus__:congratulations!
[02:41] <eternal_p> fotophocus__: welcome
[02:41] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady "make" will take some time to compile
[02:41] <nevermind> Alias|, ace_ace: indeed, the PC is switched off, but i have acces (via ssh) to at least 2 other PC on the same network that have ssh to the one in question just a few hours ago
[02:41] <hiromitz> anyone know what to do when your tablet no longer works because of the tablet driver upgrade?
[02:42] <fotophocus__> Thanks!  I tried RedHat ages ago and didn't have the patience.. but it's time for me to learn
[02:42] <ace_ace> nevermind: do you have a dhcp server? look in dhcp_leases!
[02:42] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, if ./configure didnt show any errors , it should compile fine
[02:42] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, make has several options so you can se here: http://pastebin.ca/490439
[02:42] <Doctor_Zoidberg> fotophocus__ congrats, ubuntu is a great intro to the linux world
[02:42] <nevermind> ace_ace: I don't think it's using it, since this one has a fixed IP
[02:43] <Adam_G> I've also run fuser /dev/audio and /dev/dsp, nothing there either
[02:43] <ace_ace> steel_lady: make prog1 ?
[02:43] <nevermind> i've checked the arp table, but i get nothing but the hostname and a 'incomplete' in the MAC address
[02:43] <nibsa1242> later
[02:43] <fotophocus__> Anyone have any suggestions of what to do/try now?  I'm sitting here thinking "Okay, Ubuntu is cool... now what?"
[02:43] <eternal_p> fotophocus__: read every post on ubuntuforums tips and tricks..great way to learn
[02:43] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady "make install"
[02:43] <Tomrick1> Is there any development of a patch for ORINOCO Monitor mode for recent Linux kernel (Ubuntu 7.04)? My googling on this subject has not being productive.
[02:44] <ace_ace> Adam_G: what might work is cat /etc/passd > /dev/dsp and see if you hear nasty sounds.. You can take any small file other then /etc/passd :_0
[02:44] <Deffy> have some lackey turn it on?
[02:44] <steel_lady> ace_ace: make: *** No rule to make target `prog1.o', needed by `prog1'.  Stop.
[02:44] <Deffy> I mean, that's why we have lackies in IT right
[02:44] <cafuego> Tomrick1: to the best of my knowledge that patch was added to the mainline driver over a year ago
[02:44] <Adam_G> ace_ace: tried thet - did't hear anything
[02:44] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, is that terminal output or in the makefile?
[02:45] <Doctor_Zoidberg> in many cases you read about a package and its as easy as either "sudo apt-get install" or add/remove package and typing its name
[02:45] <ace_ace> steel_lady: try what Catop... says or maube the name of the program is not prog1 but something else ?
[02:45] <Adam_G> but it still gives a bell on a failing tab completion, for example
[02:45] <ace_ace> Adam_G: speakers turned off ? sorry, no clue here!
[02:45] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy: Catoptromancy: http://pastebin.ca/490446
[02:45] <oldude67> is there an easy way to split my hard drive without losing my ubuntu, qtparted doesnt see it...and im like a newbie
[02:45] <datrigg> Auuudi!~
[02:45] <Adam_G> Except for the audio bell working, I'd think so too :)
[02:45] <Tomrick1> Cafuego - monitor mode does not seem to be available
[02:45] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, I am giving you terminal output
[02:46] <ace_ace> Adam_g: can you have others sounds than the bell ? a ding ? a waaammmm ? are you not listening to the pc speaker beep ?
[02:47] <ace_ace> Adam_g did you turn up the volume on each and every mixer in the mixer 'input' section ?
[02:47] <braveheartlion> how do i know whether the CD I burned has the alternate ISO on it or the main/live ISO?
[02:47] <Adam_G> ace_ace: It's a laptop - the hardware "speaker" is in the sound card, it comes through either the laptops speakers or headphones if they're plugged in. Nothing other than that...
[02:47] <Flannel> braveheartlion: Which ISO did you download?
[02:47] <nibsa1242b> <- is back, still having a problem getting my sd card to mount... I just noticed that when the computer boots with the sd card in the drive it says: mmcblk0: error 1 sending read/write command
[02:48] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, paste me what  `chmod --help'  does
[02:48] <Adam_G> ace_ace: Like the Gnome mixer? I don't have any gnome services running (I run ratpoison WM) but I'll start the panel and check
[02:48] <ace_ace> I finally have a kubuntu cd downloaded... gonna burn it and reboot... will be gine for a while !
[02:48] <ace_ace> bye bye !
[02:48] <insomniac190> I am trying to set up a samba share on my feisty box so i can access it on my modded xbox, but i know nothing about samba.  Can anyone give me a hand?
[02:49] <braveheartlion> both, Flannel, and i clicked on the file so quickly i did not see which I clicked on to burn
[02:49] <usser> insomniac190: http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/samba.htm
[02:49] <nibsa1242b> insomniac190: good luck!
[02:49] <EADG> ace_ace: good luck
[02:49] <ace_ace> braveheartlion: if you boot, it will dispaly a text only meny. Also you can check the md5sum of the cd
[02:49] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy http://pastebin.ca/490452
[02:49] <insomniac190> nibsa1242b:  you say good luck, is it hard?
[02:49] <Flannel> braveheartlion: alright.  So, have you booted it yet? or are you trying to find out before then?
[02:49] <modern> sup
[02:50] <usser_> insomniac190: its not hard really
[02:50] <jared> rawr
[02:50] <nibsa1242b> insomniac190: I've tried and failed to Samba in the past. I think it might be easier now, but as I no longer use any version of Windows I haven't tried.
[02:50] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, im just guessing now, try "make lib"
[02:51] <Flannel> braveheartlion: If you look on the CD, thealternate should have these files: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.list  the desktop should have these: http://releases.ubuntu.com/7.04/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.list
[02:51] <insomniac190> usser_: ive never done anything in samba before, hopefully this does not give me grief
[02:51] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy: make: Nothing to be done for `lib'
[02:51] <nonyabus> does anyone know how I can set my ubuntu to have my monitor resolution set to the max by default
[02:51] <nonyabus> i set it but each time i restart it goes back down to a smaller res
[02:52] <usser_> insomniac190: check out this step by step http://www.troubleshooters.com/linux/samba.htm
[02:52] <Catoptromancy> im stuck reforatting at the moment
[02:52] <Xyhthyx> Is there a safe way to make a ubuntu partition bigger?
[02:52] <Catoptromancy> I think libs might be missing
[02:52] <insomniac190> usser_: im already reading it :)
[02:52] <Flannel> Xyhthyx: boot to a liveCD, use gparted to expand the partition
[02:52] <Doctor_Zoidberg> nonyabus, carefull when pushing your monitor settings, if you know what the hardware allows, fine.....but its not something you can push over the limit then tone back....puch over the limit and you need a new monitor
[02:52] <braveheartlion> Flannel:  thanks
[02:53] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, "make prog1"
[02:53] <nonyabus> Doctor_Zoidberg: i understand but i know the proper rez
[02:53] <nonyabus> it looks fine when i change it to that
[02:53] <Doctor_Zoidberg> xp has a safety setting for this as standard, k
[02:53] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy make: *** No rule to make target `prog1.o', needed by `prog1'.  Stop.
[02:53] <Xyhthyx> Flannel: ok, I got this unpartitioned space I want to merge with the ubuntu install, gParted can take care of that?
[02:53] <nonyabus> i have the nvidia driver
[02:53] <BrendanM> Is there a way to set Xscreensaver to automatically disable when certain other applications are running?
[02:53] <Flannel> Xyhthyx: is it before or after your Ubuntu partition?
[02:54] <Xyhthyx> Flannel: Before.
[02:54] <Flannel> Xyhthyx: how big is the freespace?
[02:54] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, "make clean" then "./configure" and paste whole configure output
[02:54] <Xyhthyx> Flannel: Around 5gigs.
[02:54] <nonyabus> is there somewhere where i can manually edit and save the default rez?
[02:54] <Flannel> Xyhthyx: How big is your current ubutu partition... data wise?
[02:54] <braveheartlion> I burned a CD that is Live (not alternate). I'm confused, though, it seems we can go to the text install. What am I misunderstanding
[02:54] <NemesisD> how do i set up apache2 to only start manually instead of automatically like it does now?
[02:54] <Xyhthyx> Flannel: 30gigs.
[02:54] <Flannel> braveheartlion: The... server CD?
[02:55] <cface> Aye can someone help me out with my sound problem
[02:55] <eternal_p> cface: just ask the question :)
[02:55] <Flannel> Xyhthyx: 30 gigs of stuff? or just 30gig partition? with X amount of stuff?
[02:55] <dope> how do i know what user php is running under
[02:55] <usser_> braveheartlion: is it cd or dvd u got?
[02:55] <BrendanM> Anyone? Disabling the screensaver when certain other apps are open? Bueller?
[02:55] <Xyhthyx> Flannel: The latter, 30 gig partition with X amount in it.
[02:55] <rr_lap> how do i get gnome to start apps on start up? in kde they would automaticly restore the session like windows and what not that was open
[02:55] <braveheartlion> Flannel: no. desktop.
[02:55] <cface> Alright, i've got Sound Blaster Audigy sound card and i cant seem to get it to work...
[02:55] <bruenig> rr_lap, system>preferences>sessions
[02:55] <braveheartlion> usser_: CD
[02:56] <bruenig> I hate session saving, I restart to be fresh, if I wanted everything to be the same, I wouldn't restart
[02:56] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, here it is: http://pastebin.ca/490461
[02:56] <dope> how do i know what user php is running under
[02:56] <rr_lap> ty bruenig, still getting used to gnome
[02:56] <Pelo> bruenig,  you can turn it off you know
[02:56] <usser_> braveheartlion: well then thats mighty strange, does it give u text install option in the boot menu?
[02:56] <NemesisD> im sure its simple, where can i control what services are started upon booting?
[02:56] <nonyabus> again, does anyone know why everytime i restart my default monitor resolution gets set to a lower value?
[02:56] <cface> Okay... no help on sound...
[02:56] <Flannel> Xyhthyx: the thing is ext3 partitions (what ubuntu probably is), can only be expanded backwards.  (the beginning can't move).  However, with a little manuevering, you'll be able to expand it forward.  It depends on how much stuff you have on it (if it's 5 or less, you format the 5GB, transfer everything form the 30, then delete the 30, and expand the 5 to 35)
[02:56] <eddmul> good morning everybody
[02:56] <Doctor_Zoidberg> dope, do you know where your HTDOCS folder is?
[02:56] <nonyabus> it works, but i need to reset it each time
[02:57] <dope> yea i think it's /var/www
[02:57] <Doctor_Zoidberg> put a php script there
[02:57] <dope> ok
[02:57] <dope> and then
[02:57] <Doctor_Zoidberg> point your browser to the localhost
[02:57] <Doctor_Zoidberg> if it shows the script as text, its not working
[02:57] <Xyhthyx> Flannel: I see, thanks. It's definately more than 5, I'll give it to windows then.
[02:57] <dope> it is working
[02:57] <Doctor_Zoidberg> if it inteprets the script, then it is
[02:57] <Flannel> Xyhthyx: if its less than about 15GB full, you'll still be able to do it (Cut the 30GB in half, new partition on back half, copy everything there, delete front, format (now) GB of space, move stuff forward, delete the 15, expand 20 to 35
[02:57] <Jack3> guys, somehting is really wrong with my ubuntu
[02:57] <Jack3> http://pastebin.ca/490448
[02:57] <Jack3> look at that
[02:57] <Jack3> thats fro df
[02:57] <dope> however I have a problem with permissions because I can't write files with php
[02:58] <Xyhthyx> Flannel: Ah, that is doable. Thanks.
[02:58] <dope> and I'm trying to find the user php runs under so I can put it into the correct group
[02:58] <braveheartlion> usser_: no, but i can get out of the graphical mode and enter a black screen with the word: "boot"
[02:58] <Flannel> dope: www-data:www-data (the apache user)
[02:58] <ibo> hi
[02:58] <dope> i did that but it still can't write with the group and user permission at 7
[02:58] <sanger> wenas
[02:58] <dope> the directories have 774
[02:58] <Flannel> dope: /var/www does?
[02:58] <dope> but I get a forbidden when viewing the webpages
[02:58] <dope> yes
[02:59] <eddmul> anybody could help me how to detect hard disk partition after I made format for one of my partition using partition magic? Because it won't mount in my Ubuntu.
[02:59] <Flannel> dope: and /var/www is owned by www-data?
[02:59] <cface> Cmod it to 777
[02:59] <cface> chmod*
[02:59] <usser_> braveheartlion: by get out u mean yourself? or it just throws u there, i had this on a laptop it was hardware pblm ubuntu just couldnt boot
[02:59] <ibo> fuck  off

[03:00] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, I am checking the parts where it said..no and I am adding them through synaptic
[03:00] <bruenig> dope, you want the files in it to be 774, you don't want the directory itself to be 774, since you need the directory to be executable
[03:00] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady "make all"
[03:00] <Doctor_Zoidberg> for some reason 644 springs to mind on permissions for some scripts, but only for selected ones
[03:00] <Catoptromancy> ok
[03:00] <eddmul> :)
[03:00] <dope> i just did chmod -Rv 774 /var/www
[03:00] <bruenig> 644 is nobody can execute
[03:01] <wacky> how can i send an email in the shell ?
[03:01] <Doctor_Zoidberg> many sites are made up of many scripts, but only the key ones need permision chaged

[03:06] <Irishman2020_> troy_: get envy
[03:06] <troy_> which package can i apt-get for that
[03:06] <P_Kable> envy
[03:06] <nonyabus> geforce 7800
[03:06] <Irishman2020_> troy_: not sure its in the apt
[03:06] <Irishman2020_> nonyabus: do you use nvidia-settings or envy?
[03:07] <nonyabus> i use nvidia, don't know what envy is
[03:07] <Tarkus> i have both compiz and beryl installed, and now my computer is running horribly. glitches everywhere. is there a way to completely reset my system files and compiz/beryl, etc..?
[03:07] <Irishman2020_> the drivers... go download envy with apt-get
[03:07] <Irishman2020_> !envy
[03:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about envy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:07] <Doctor_Zoidberg> a curious hypothetical question .... would sudo apt-get install *  download and install everything in every category in the repositries?
[03:08] <Skiguy> how do I start the default ubuntu vnc server (remote session service) from the terminal?
[03:08] <TiredOfWindows> I have a 64 bit system.I have been advised to use 32 bit Ubuntu. Why?
[03:08] <nonyabus> Irishman2020_: what's the command?
[03:08] <nonyabus> sudo apt-get envy?
[03:08] <steel_lady> catoptromancy what should I do?
[03:08] <Irishman2020_> skiguy: vnc4server
[03:08] <BrendanM> TiredOfWindows, certain applications aren't available for 64 bit
[03:08] <tomer> Does anyone know if removing gDesklets could have messed up my desktop? My launchers and links all open up as text files now.
[03:08] <BrendanM> for example, Firefox (I think) and flash player
[03:08] <Irishman2020_> nonyabus: sudo apt-get envy
[03:08] <troy_> i tried that
[03:08] <cannibal_> server irc.accela.net
[03:09] <cannibal_> ack
[03:09] <troy_> it said the package is not available
[03:09] <Irishman2020_> I dowloaded from envy's site.
[03:09] <Catoptromancy> I guess google something,  but ill get linux installed in a bit, ill try to compile and see what happens
[03:09] <Irishman2020_> do google, envy ubuntu
[03:09] <Irishman2020_> first link
[03:09] <BrendanM> TiredofWindows, it's sort of the same deal as windows (64-bit windows doesn't support everything that 32 does), although Linux is actually slightly ahead in 64 bit support at the moment.
[03:09] <nonyabus> Irishman2020_: sudo apt-get envy
[03:09] <nonyabus> E: Invalid operation envy

[03:19] <palomer> so one failure isnt normal?
[03:19] <Jack3> than i did df
[03:19] <Irishman2020_> nonyabus: thats the deb file

[03:24] <NickGarvey> budluva: I played it yesterday
[03:24] <psusi> Jack3: because it can't see those mount points as they exist outside of the chroot

[03:24] <tomer> I think I have some file association issues. Can anyone help out?
[03:25] <psusi> variant: I had him mount /proc... but that won't help either since it still can't see the mount points as they are outside of the chroot
[03:25] <eddmul> what is it tomer?
[03:25] <fester225> I did an install for Feisty (7.04), but <lsb_release -a> shows I'm still running Dapper (6.06). How do I get Feisty (7.04) to install?
[03:25] <variant> !ask | tomer
[03:25] <ubotu> tomer: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:25] <variant> psusi: you had him mount /proc where?
[03:25] <budluva> NickGarvey, what version of wine are you using?
[03:25] <psusi> variant: in /proc of course
[03:25] <tomer> ubotu: i get no answers otherwise :P
[03:25] <NickGarvey> budluva: uh, 9.37
[03:25] <Jack3> psusi, it works fine, i just tried it outside of chroot, it shows the sda5 as 0bytes free, and 100% use
[03:25] <variant> psusi: in /mnt/whatever/proc you mean...
[03:25] <tomer> I try to create desktop launchers and it keeps creating text files
[03:25] <budluva> NickGarvey, hmmm, and you had 0 problems at all eh?
[03:26] <NickGarvey> budluva: wel,l I followed the howto on the wine site and had to crack it
[03:26] <TiredOfWindows> PriceChild: psusi i have 2 GB of ram and I want to install normally (i think it's NTFS?).
[03:26] <tomer> also, links from the help center open up as text files
[03:26] <psusi> Jack3: is sda5 actually mounted?  and if so, where?
[03:26] <budluva> NickGarvey, hmm
[03:26] <budluva> well this is gey
[03:26] <Jack3> psusi, its at /Mount
[03:26] <NickGarvey> budluva: (although I did buy the game, it just wouldn't work if it wasn't cracked)
[03:26] <psusi> variant: yes, mounted it from inside the chroot
[03:26] <harpette> can someone go to http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/default.stm , click on "listen" at the top, and tell me how it goes? it'll ask you whether you have WMP or RealPlayer.i'd like to know what software/plugins to install to make it work, so i'd like to hear success stories
[03:26] <PriceChild> TiredOfWindows, the alternate installs exactly the same system as the desktop
[03:26] <budluva> well it works find in windows
[03:26] <Jack3> i know its actually mounted, i can see the folders and my acct in /home/michael
[03:26] <variant> psusi: you don't understand
[03:26] <psusi> TiredOfWindows: then use the desktop cd
[03:26] <fester225> I did an install for Feisty (7.04), but <lsb_release -a> shows I'm still running Dapper (6.06). How do I get Feisty (7.04) to install?
[03:26] <budluva> might have to go back
[03:27] <NickGarvey> !upgrade | fester225
[03:27] <ubotu> fester225: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:27] <psusi> Jack3: you mean in /mnt/home/michael?
[03:27] <tomer> Anyone?
[03:27] <Zigosity> Hey guys... When I try to access the shared folders on my ubuntu machine from my windows PC, it gives me a "... is not accessible. The share name was not found. Be sure you typed it correctly." error. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening?
[03:27] <ixian_> what's a similar player to rhythmbox, but for windows?
[03:27] <Jack3> well, /Mount/home/michael
[03:27] <Jack3> but when i was in chroot, it was /home/michael
[03:27] <troy_> can anyone tell me why ubuntu would suddenly have a very long login time, and refuse to run some gtk apps, after updating to the latest software set (ubuntu version 7.04)
[03:27] <TiredOfWindows> psusi: i've been having problems installing with the desktop CD (and, not in passing, but in fact, also with the alternate CD).
[03:28] <psusi> Jack3: and df shows it is mounted in /Mount/home/michael?
[03:28] <variant> psusi: you have to mount the chrooted proc from outside of the chroot
[03:28] <cjae> hi running feisty how do I capture video like say foamy that ranting squirrel and email it??
[03:28] <Zedfloyd> regarding UbuntuStudio...  if i already have feisty installed can i just upgrade or do i have to do a total install???
[03:28] <junmin> tomer, are you sure that you are creating these with a correct way?
[03:28] <variant> psusi: for example: mount -t proc none /mnt/whatever/proc
[03:28] <Jack3> psusi, no it shows it mounted on /Mount
[03:28] <tomer> yeah, I'm just right clicking and 'adding launcher to desktop'
[03:28] <Lam_> i'm trying to install fglrx 8.36.5 and i followed the guide on cchtml down to the dot but am still getting mesa
[03:28] <tomer> from the applications menu
[03:28] <variant> Jack3: from outside the chroot run that command i just told psusi
[03:28] <Tabris> someone here can help me with one little thing with a printer on ubuntu
[03:28] <Jack3> with the whatever/
[03:28] <Jack3> ?
[03:28] <psusi> variant: what difference would that make?  as long as it is mounted?  and if /proc/mounts shows /foo is mounted, but you are chrooted in /bar, then df can't stat /foo
[03:28] <variant> Jack3: no
[03:28] <Zedfloyd> regarding UbuntuStudio... if i already have feisty installed can i just upgrade or do i have to do a total install???
[03:29] <tomer> It was working fine until I uninstalled gDesklets. Might that have something to do with it?
[03:29] <Jack3> than what do i put that?
[03:29] <TiredOfWindows> what are the advantages to using the alternate CD?
[03:29] <Irishman2020_> TiredOfWindows: more options, advanced install
[03:29] <budluva> NickGarvey, you have nvidia or ati gfx?
[03:29] <PriceChild> TiredOfWindows, works on less ram
[03:29] <NickGarvey> budluva: nvidia
[03:29] <budluva> NickGarvey, ahhh
[03:30] <variant> psusi: yes, so proc would be mounted in /bar/proc
[03:30] <budluva> NickGarvey, what vid card?
[03:30] <__mikem> PriceChild, I honestly didn't know the alternate install cd had more options
[03:30] <NickGarvey> budluva: I built my computer, I chose carefully :)
[03:30] <Zigosity> Hey guys... When I try to access the shared folders on my ubuntu machine from my windows PC, it gives me a "... is not accessible. The share name was not found. Be sure you typed it correctly." error. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening?
[03:30] <Zedfloyd> regarding UbuntuStudio... if i already have feisty installed can i just upgrade or do i have to do a total install???
[03:30] <Tabris> a epson printer prints so slow on ubuntu but in windows still normal, what can i do?
[03:30] <psusi> variant: yea... but df can't see /foo, so it can't tell you how much space it has used/free
[03:30] <NickGarvey> budluva: 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7600 GS]  (rev a1)

[03:34] <PriceChild> !patience | Tabris
[03:34] <ubotu> Tabris: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[03:34] <psusi> Jack3: what makes you think it isn't actually full?
[03:34] <cjae> Irishman2020_, does stramripper do this
[03:34] <Tabris> anyone knows the irc of ubuntu-es ?
[03:34] <teer2> After I use Synaptic Package Manager to install GNASH, should it work within Firefox after quitting and coming back in?
[03:35] <Irishman2020_> cjae: trying to remmber the software name for FF's addon
[03:35] <Irishman2020_> cjae: let me check
[03:35] <TiredOfWindows> Irishman2020_: PriceChild thanks. will it be as easy to use the alternate CD (for a newbie) as the desktop cD?
[03:35] <Jack3> psusi, i checked the total of / , it was 5gb, it says i should have 11gb total
[03:35] <PriceChild> TiredOfWindows, pretty simple yeah
[03:35] <psusi> Jack3: the df yuo pasted before was from in the chroot right?  can you paste it from outside?
[03:35] <xsx> !help
[03:35] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[03:35] <Tabris> ...
[03:35] <Jack3> its not really different but okay
[03:35] <cjae> Irishman2020_, wouldn't that only rip flv??
[03:35] <harpette> Tabris: ask for the room/channel list from your irc software, and scroll down. Pbbly #ubuntu-es
[03:36] <Jack3> http://pastebin.ca/490515
[03:36] <Tabris> yes, but in which server
[03:36] <psusi> Jack3: and how did you check the total used space?
[03:36] <Irishman2020_> cjae: one sec, cheking
[03:36] <Jack3> i selected everything with konqueror in / and checked the size
[03:36] <cjae> Irishman2020_, or whatever youtube is
[03:36] <psusi> Jack3: that won't count things it can't see... do sudo du -bsh /Mount
[03:36] <Irishman2020_> TiredOfWindows: Wanting to learn or just use the computer?
[03:37] <harpette> Tabris: this one
[03:37] <Tabris> ya lo encontre
[03:38] <TiredOfWindows> ok. so I got some advice from someone that, because of my ATI Card, I when I first boot up the alternate CD, I should install  xorg-driver-fglrx
[03:38] <TiredOfWindows> and   linux-restrictred-modules$(uname -r). how do i do that?
[03:38] <Irishman2020_> cjae: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/search?q=downloader+flash&status=4
[03:38] <cjae> Irishman2020_, and then I would have to convert them to right oh sorry didn't see you checking
[03:38] <cjae> Irishman2020_, or download a player
[03:38] <spl0it> I'm having an issue with pgp - I installed seahorse - created a key - now how do I encrypt files? when I view the key it says it is used to decrypt files and emails.... what I'm a missing here - another package to handle encryption? another key ??
[03:39] <dsmith_> Even Bill Gates recommends Ubuntu...   http://www.fayerwayer.com/up/2007/04/bill_gates_ubuntu_mini.jpg
[03:39] <Irishman2020_> cjae: that will d/l them... most likely the flash player will be sufficient from FF or IE
[03:39] <kbj> Is there a way for force a resolution in ubuntu?
[03:39] <Irishman2020_> cjae: Foamy is swf files, not like flv from youtube
[03:39] <Jack3> psusi, noooooooo!,it shows 12g
[03:39] <Jack3> this isnt possible :(
[03:39] <psusi> Jack3: so it is full ;)
[03:39] <Jack3> it cant be
[03:39] <Jack3> how do i tell where all that is comin from
[03:39] <Jack3> is there a command to show all folders in /  and there sizes
[03:39] <cjae> Irishman2020_, can I use ff for swf??
[03:40] <Irishman2020_> cjae: oh yes
[03:40] <psusi> Jack3: du -bh /Mount to see the size of each directory
[03:40] <psusi> Jack3: sudo of course
[03:40] <Irishman2020_> cjae: if you are having problems with viewing swf or flv's in FF in ubuntu, get the flash player extension for FF
[03:40] <Jack3> holy shit, thats not the directory, thats EVERY FREKEN FILE
[03:40] <Jack3> make it stop make it stop!!!
[03:40] <Jack3> ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
[03:40] <Irishman2020_> Jack3: ctrl +c
[03:41] <cjae> Irishman2020_, have you sent foamy before?? is it too big to email do I have to convert
[03:41] <psusi> Jack3: lol... oops... yea, ctrl-c
[03:41] <bruenig> Jack3, it is every directory
[03:41] <psusi> Jack3: make that sudo du -bsh /Mount/*
[03:41] <Irishman2020_> cjae: may be easier just to link the file
[03:41] <kbj> Is there a way for force a resolution in ubuntu?
[03:41] <spl0it> anyone know what step I'm missing - friken seahorse is installed, now how do I encrypt files with pgp?
[03:41] <TiredOfWindows> Irishman2020_: wanting to install ubuntu on my computer, but have been having problems for about 2 months now
[03:42] <Tabris> i installed the flash-nonfre form synaptic, but when i see a flash content in a page and i press the right click, i see a "gray MS Windows" Menu
[03:42] <Irishman2020_> TiredOfWindows: Ubuntu 7.04 standard install CD has worked better than their older versions.  I have never had a problem installing it on most machines
[03:42] <cjae> Irishman2020_, was thinking that but not likely they will click it
 is there a command to show all folders in /  and there sizes
[03:42] <Jack3> oh nice psusi
[03:42] <Irishman2020_> cjae: dunno on the file size, never sent one
[03:42] <Jack3> it looks like /usr is taking 2.5gb
[03:42] <Irishman2020_> cjae: if you get it downloaded, check the file size, let me know
[03:42] <psusi> Jack3: sounds about normal
[03:42] <Jack3> and /home 3.8gb
[03:42] <TiredOfWindows> Irishman2020_: i wish I could say the same thing
[03:43] <Jack3> and root 3.7
[03:43] <cjae> Irishman2020_, thanks no anything about streamripper
[03:43] <Irishman2020_> TiredOfWindows: what issues have occured?
[03:43] <TiredOfWindows> Irishman2020_: this is the first time my system is going to have ubuntu installed.
[03:43] <Irishman2020_> cjae: not offhand
[03:43] <psusi> Jack3: /root is 3.7 gigs?  there shouldn't hardly be anything in there...
[03:43] <cjae> Irishman2020_, will let you know thanks
[03:43] <Irishman2020_> TiredOfWindows: ahh, try it with the basic CD, dont waste time on the advance yet
[03:43] <intelikey> hmmm i installed windows on my hdc  and now that disk wont boot.   says not a valid boot disk
[03:43] <penguin> hello
[03:43] <Irishman2020_> TiredOfWindows: I've had way better luck with ubuntu's installer than ANY distro
[03:44] <TiredOfWindows> Irishman2020_:  The problem I get is that when I choose "Run or Start Ubuntu" or "Check CD for defects" the computer blanks/blacks out and hangs. I have to press the power button
[03:44] <TiredOfWindows> on the computer to reboot.
[03:44] <bruenig> zenwalk installer is pretty good
[03:44] <Irishman2020_> TiredOfWindows: and I dualboot, run 3 hds, etc
[03:44] <psusi> TiredOfWindows: you using i386 or amd64?
[03:44] <TiredOfWindows> Irishman2020_: maybe the problem is not with the distro per se, but with my system
[03:44] <Jack3> psusi, somethings wrong, when i cd to /Mount/root and do dir, there is nothing
[03:44] <Jack3> how can that be?
[03:44] <kitche> intelikey: that's because window usually installs it's mbr in hda
[03:44] <TiredOfWindows> psusi: my system is 64 bit, but i will install 32 bit ubuntu on it
[03:44] <Irishman2020_> TiredOfWindows: could be... or maybe the burner...
[03:44] <penguin> can someone answer a few quick questions? Im new to linux in general
[03:44] <psusi> Jack3: because you don't have access to that directory... sudo -s to stay as root for a while
[03:44] <intelikey> kitche hda will boot tho
[03:44] <TiredOfWindows> Irishman2020_: i think the burner is fine
[03:44] <steel_lady> atopytomanc, how is it going, can I go 15 mins more?
[03:45] <spl0it> anyone use seahorse here?
[03:45] <Irishman2020_> TiredOfWindows: well, might be the system then, what do you run on it normaly
[03:45] <psusi> TiredOfWindows: you will or that is the one that has this problem?
[03:45] <Jack3> psusis, i am sudo -s
[03:45] <Irishman2020_> penguin: fire away, people are listening
[03:45] <ribatejo> hoi
[03:45] <Zigosity> Hey guys... When I try to access the shared folders on my ubuntu machine from my windows PC, it gives me a "... is not accessible. The share name was not found. Be sure you typed it correctly." error. Anyone have any ideas why this is happening?
[03:45] <Jack3> unless i should go to chroot?
[03:45] <harpette> Tabris: what do you expect when you right click on flash content? Doesn't your grey menu have "Zoom in", etc?
[03:45] <psusi> Jack3: no... just cd /Mount/root and du -bsh
[03:45] <TiredOfWindows> psusi: i mean:"I want to install ubuntu 32bit"
[03:46] <ribatejo> my atheros builtin  minipci wireless broke...have a pcmcia one but uses also atheros chipset
[03:46] <penguin> awesome, i am on a t23 laptop, and i have a wired connection and a dwl610 wifi card, but when i go to the device viewer its is registered as a dwl510 and there is no wlan0 in my network settings :s does anyone have a clue whats going on?
[03:46] <TiredOfWindows> psusi: both 32 and 64 bit ubuntu cds cause me problem, leading me to think that the problem lies not specifically with one iso, but with my system
[03:46] <TiredOfWindows> or what i mean, psusi, is that my system and ubuntu are not communicating well
[03:47] <LuisGMarine> Anyone here running games under Cedega?
[03:47] <Jack3> root@ubuntu:/Mount/root# du -bsh
[03:47] <Jack3> 3.7G    .
[03:47] <psusi> TiredOfWindows: hrm.... when you choose start ubuntu, pick the option to edit the command and change the word splash to nosplash
[03:47] <ribatejo> can't really blacklist ath_pci I think
[03:47] <ribatejo> at least it didn't work...
[03:47] <psusi> Jack3: well, it's in there then... du -bsh * to see where
[03:47] <TiredOfWindows> psusi: i think you misunderstand; I cannot even install ubuntu
[03:47] <psusi> TiredOfWindows: I know... I'm talking about when you try to boot the cd
[03:48] <Jack3> psusi, du: cannot access `*': No such file or directory
[03:48] <TiredOfWindows> psusi: what do you mean by "boot the cd"?
[03:48] <Irishman2020_> penguin: hmmm good question... not sure where to go, I'm still learning alot
[03:48] <cjae> Irishman2020_, how do i make it dl I try clicking the icon which seems silly and it keeps telling me not a valid url
[03:48] <psusi> TiredOfWindows: as in, insert the cd, and boot from it
[03:48] <ribatejo> atheros chipsets are 5211 and 5212 so even if i blacklist and use ndiswrapper I will have the same problem ?:(
[03:48] <Irishman2020_> cjae: what addon did you download?
[03:49] <penguin> hrmm, yeah thats cool. does anyone know if i can run beryl on a 16mb super savage card? oi can deal with no wifi for now :4

[03:52] <ribatejo> anybody can teel me how to disable a network interface? ifconfig has ath0 eth0 lo and wifi0 ..TIA
[03:52] <marnanel> I've just upgraded to a 2.6 kernel so I can use a USB camera. When I plug it in, udevmonitor and gnome-volume-manager both see that a camera of the correct make was connected. Yet it doesn't mount under /media or launch the photo app. I have tried this on other machines running Ubuntu and it's worked. Any pointers as to what to try next?
[03:53] <Irishman2020_> cjae: one sec
[03:53] <Transience> anyone know if i can use a belkin wireless pci card with ubuntu 64bit?
[03:53] <SickOfWindows> vy video card is so cool that, in windows xp, it supports 2 monitors. can ubuntu do that?
[03:54] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: yes
[03:54] <harpette> datrigg: hmmm i did that yesterday, and it did mount all partitions on that drive
[03:54] <penguin> ohhkk another question... when i get my good comp up and running, does beryl support dual monitors?
[03:54] <Fezzler> I installed Fiesty Fawn Desktop from LiveCD.  Working beautifully.  Now I want to network the dedicated Ubuntu box to home network with 4, sometimes 5, computers: Ubuntu, Vista Home Premium, iMac G5, iMac G3 Rev. A Bondi Blue, and sometimes Dell XP laptop.  I want Ubuntu to serve as a back-up file server (simple..map to network folders on Ubuntu box).  Do I do this by installing "samba" on the Ubuntu?
[03:54] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: if its nvidia, get envy for ubuntu
[03:54] <Irishman2020_> penguin: yes, its in the options as to how it handles it
[03:54] <penguin> oh excellent ^^
[03:54] <SickOfWindows> IrishDave Display Adapter: Radeon X850
[03:55] <SickOfWindows> Irishman2020_: sorry, the message above was fdr you
[03:55] <harpette> datrigg: i went to Places > Computer, and navigated from there, and i could browse the partitions by just clicking away
[03:55] <datrigg> harpette: how did you get the drive to mount then...I figured it would automount...but I haven't changed the config fstab
[03:55] <penguin> ok moar questions im addicted now. I updated to 7.04 and my ubuntu changed to edubuntu :S is this bad and can i get back to just ubuntu easily?
[03:55] <radhios> \paart
[03:55] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: make sure you get the ati drivers and you should be fine, i run 2 monitors with my nvidia card
[03:55] <radhios> \part
[03:55] <harpette> datrigg: nor did i
[03:55] <SickOfWindows> Irishman2020_: cool
[03:55] <psusi> penguin: wow.. how did you manage to do that? ;)
[03:56] <datrigg> harpette: I don't see it there :(
[03:56] <scoobydoo28139> I am on day 2 of ubuntu now ,and been around a little, 1. how or where do i find software for my tvcard?2. what is knoppix?
[03:56] <Irishman2020_> penquin: you downloaded the wrong update... go into synaptic and get ubuntu
[03:56] <penguin> psusi: noooo clue
[03:56] <SickOfWindows> Irishman2020_: i didn't know ubuntu is that good
[03:56] <cjae> Irishman2020_, can I not just add the address not just click
[03:56] <marnanel> scoobydoo28139: knoppix is a distribution that runs off one CD, so you don't need to install it or change what's currently on your hard disk.
[03:56] <penguin> irishman2020: do i just select the ubuntu package?
[03:56] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: I'm pretty sure if my vid card could handle it, I could run 4
[03:56] <SickOfWindows> wow!
[03:56] <harpette> datrigg: sorry the drive is not in my computer right now, so i can't look around
[03:56] <Irishman2020_> cjae: checking, sorry, trying to do 20x things at once
[03:56] <marnanel> SickOfWindows: look up "xinerama"
[03:56] <SickOfWindows> what can windows do that ubuntu cannot do (yet).
[03:57] <datrigg> does anyone else know how to mount second drive?
[03:57] <datrigg> internal
[03:57] <SickOfWindows> i guess i'm talking about hardware support
[03:57] <scoobydoo28139> ok
[03:57] <Jack3> psusi, http://pastebin.ca/490534
[03:57] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: I dont think there is much... sony usb handycams... :(
[03:57] <harpette> datrigg: just do it the old manula way: mount -t ext2 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/thingy
[03:57] <scoobydoo28139> but where do i find stuff for my ati tvcard?
[03:57] <Transience> does anyone know if i can use my belkin wi-fi pci card with ubuntu 64bit?
[03:57] <SickOfWindows> oh
[03:57] <Alias|> SickOfWindows: I've got a firewire audio interface that works with Windows and not with Ubuntu. It makes me sad: Windows can't be made hard realtime capable.
[03:57] <PriceChild> Transience, have you tried?
[03:57] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: I have to get a firewire cable, but I know it will work there
[03:58] <SickOfWindows> Irishman2020_: good to hear!
[03:58] <SickOfWindows> Alias|: sorry to hear.
[03:58] <psusi> Jack3: my guess is it's all in .Trash... du -bsh .Trash
[03:58] <SickOfWindows> maybe one day, Alias|'s problem will be no more
[03:58] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: theres pretty much anything, it just may not be code writtent yet
[03:58] <penguin> how do i install ubuntu in synaptic?
[03:58] <Jack3> yes .Trash is 4k
[03:58] <Transience> price child: no, not yet
[03:58] <scoobydoo28139> ....
[03:58] <Fezzler> Wrong place for samba question?
[03:58] <Alias|> SickOfWindows: I hope so :-)
[03:58] <Jack3> oops, i mean it says !
[03:59] <psusi> Jack3: I bet you ran nautilus as root and deleted a bunch of stuff eh?
[03:59] <Jack3> no...
[03:59] <SickOfWindows> is there a financial reason why shuttleworth is making ubuntu linux free for us?
[03:59] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: Its not what linux cant do... its what linux users cant do.

[04:00] <Irishman2020_> aww, they dont put the meaning in the !
[04:00] <Jack3> yes
[04:01] <psusi> Jack3: how about .wine?
[04:01] <SickOfWindows> good news guys. this is my first time running alternate cd and the installation is going a lot further than with the destkop cd. I am so happy!!!!
[04:01] <penguin> AHG! i figured out what i did wrong.. its not edubuntu i just installed the artwork packages :S
[04:01] <psusi> Jack3: it's got to be in one of those directories ;)
[04:02] <penguin> can someone please give me a quick rundown on how to install themes for ubuntu?
[04:02] <Jack3> psusi, is there a way to find the size of all of them at once?
[04:02] <SickOfWindows> guys, the text installer is asking me how i want to partiton the disk. which option should i choose? I want to remove the WinXP which is the 1 and only hard drive and let ubuntu take over teh entire hard drive
[04:02] <Jack3> this wlill take forever
[04:02] <bruenig> penguin, open the theme manager, drag the compatible tar.gz to it
[04:03] <one_speed> I'm looking for an alternative to grub that will be easy to config with PCBSD & Feisty -- any recommendations??
[04:03] <OldSalt> penguin: system->themes->install theme
[04:03] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: are you deleting all your data as well, right?
[04:03] <psusi> Jack3: hrm... try find . -exec du -bsh \;
[04:03] <penguin> bruenig: whats is comaptible with my ubuntu...sorry im really new and dumb @ this
[04:03] <SickOfWindows> choice 1: resize scsi 3, partiotn 1 and use freed space ...
[04:03] <SickOfWindows> Irishman2020_: yes. Fresh start
[04:03] <psusi> Jack3: wait
[04:03] <psusi> Jack3: nevermind
[04:03] <Jack3> ?
[04:03] <SickOfWindows> choice 2: use entire disk
[04:03] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: use entire disk
[04:03] <bruenig> penguin, drag the .tar.gz and if it works it is compatible, that is the best way
[04:03] <SickOfWindows> choice 3 use the lagret continous free space
[04:03] <psusi> Jack3: make that ls -al | xargs du -bsh
[04:03] <penguin> kk sweet thanks  ^^
[04:04] <SickOfWindows> Irishman2020_: Choice 2: use enitire disk?
[04:04] <psusi> err
[04:04] <SickOfWindows> OOK.
[04:04] <psusi> Jack3: just ls -a, no -l ;)
[04:04] <Irishman2020_> the 1st and 3rd would keep your windos
[04:04] <SickOfWindows> Here we go. No turning back
[04:04] <Irishman2020_> good luck Sick!
[04:04] <SickOfWindows> No more windows on the computer from now on
[04:04] <SickOfWindows> Irishman2020_: thanks! bit nervous
[04:04] <Irishman2020_> I understand... its a new world!
[04:04] <Irishman2020_> Freedom!
[04:04] <xsx> i remember when i completely switched to ubuntu from windows... it felt good
[04:04] <Skiguy> anyone running tightvncserver?
[04:05] <one_speed> I'm looking for an alternative to grub that will be easy to config with PCBSD & Feisty -- any recommendations???
[04:05] <Irishman2020_> i've got vnc4server running Skiguy
[04:05] <Irishman2020_> but it doesnt seem to work right
[04:05] <Irishman2020_> one_speed: ummm Lilo?
[04:05] <penguin> grr file format is invalid :(
[04:05] <kitche> one_speed: umm grub is the only one I think not sure if lilo works with BSD never tried it
[04:05] <MyG> alright everyone. I have quite a fun thing to ask.
[04:05] <Jordan_U> one_speed, The only other option is LILO, but that won't like BSD
[04:06] <one_speed> What about GAG? no good?
[04:06] <Jack3> zomg
[04:06] <SickOfWindows> the text installer is now asking me : "is system clock set to UTC". What should I say?\
[04:06] <Jordan_U> one_speed, There is GRUB2
[04:06] <Jack3> psusi, it was .local ~~~~~~~~~~~!!1
[04:06] <jdemesse> Jordan_U, kitche : lilo can boot BSD just fine
[04:06] <spl0it> bah fuck it, seahorse just doesn't work I guess
[04:06] <psusi> SickOfWindows: no... windows doesn't set the system clock to UTC
[04:06] <PriceChild> !ohmy | spl0it
[04:06] <Jordan_U> SickOfWindows, If you aren't going to use windows then "yes"
[04:06] <ubotu> spl0it: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:06] <spl0it> 10-4
[04:06] <Skiguy> irish: which window manager do you use?
[04:06] <psusi> Jack3: hrm... no idea wtf .local is
[04:06] <SickOfWindows> psusi: i won't have windows. refer to my nickname
[04:06] <SickOfWindows> 8-)
[04:06] <Jack3> Jack3, it contains Trash
[04:06] <SickOfWindows> Jordan_U: thanks
[04:07] <MyG> I am using Ubuntu fiesty. My friend gave me an old computer.. I am using it as an old windows box (XP Pro). I want to share my internet with the windows box. I connect to the internet via USB adapter to Router. I have a crossover network cable connecting the two. how can i get this working?
[04:07] <psusi> SickOfWindows: but you did.. so it set your clock to local time
[04:07] <Jack3> psusi, it contains Trash
[04:07] <SickOfWindows> psusi: i'm confused
[04:07] <vorbote> SickOfWindows: If you won't have windows in the system, it is practical to use UTC in the BIOS clock.
[04:07] <harpette> one_speed: GRUB is good, you gotta read the doc. install grub-doc and type "info grub" (you'll need to know how to use info. i think that "info info" will get you started)
[04:07] <SickOfWindows> psusi: says i should say no to UTC clock. Jordan_U says yes
[04:07] <psusi> SickOfWindows: you used windows on this computer... windows stores the local time in the system clock, not UTC time
[04:07] <Jack3> more importantly, it contains my large files :D
[04:07] <Jack3> how do i delete them?
[04:07] <Jack3> rm ?
[04:08] <SickOfWindows> psusi: vorbote Jordan_U i'm so confused
[04:08] <Irishman2020_> brb
[04:08] <SickOfWindows> yes i've used windows xp. but now it'll disappear.
[04:08] <Jordan_U> psusi, But that will be synct once and then no longer have problems
[04:08] <psusi> SickOfWindows: if you say yes, ubuntu will come up with the wrong time so you will have to set it... that is all
[04:08] <vorbote> SickOfWindows: You can set the clock later by using ntpdate.
[04:08] <Jack3> psusi, how do i delete the files?
[04:08] <psusi> Jack3: rm -fr .local
[04:08] <panduwana> hi all, is there any tutorial about making LKM for ubuntu?
[04:08] <vorbote> SickOfWindows: But if the time is already in localtine, you may prefer to say no.
[04:08] <SickOfWindows> vorbote: can't i set it easierly?
[04:08] <Jordan_U> SickOfWindows, In other workds it doesn't make much of a difference so don't worry :)
[04:09] <SickOfWindows> or easilyer? 8-)
[04:09] <SickOfWindows> ok
[04:09] <Jack3> psusi, should i delete local, or just the files in trash?
[04:09] <psusi> SickOfWindows: yes, you can... so it doesn't make much difference how you answer the question ;)
[04:09] <vorbote> SickOfWindows: The problem I see is that you are already into installation.
[04:09] <Assassin`> what is good for downloading music
[04:09] <budluva> can someone help me? im trying to install the newest 9755 drivers for my fx5500 card, and when i do a sudo gdm restart i see the nvidia logo and then the screen flashes a black screen every few seconds, and then i get.... failed to start x server, Fatal server error: could not open defaul font 'fixed'
[04:09] <SickOfWindows> next windows asks for my real name: why in the word does it need my real name? Just for sending emails?
[04:09] <budluva> how do i fix this?
[04:09] <psusi> Jack3: I think you can delete the whole thing... I'm not sure how those files got there in the first place
[04:09] <SickOfWindows> I prefer some privacy.
[04:09] <Assassin`> something like limewire or what kazzaa used to be
[04:09] <TakeOut{u}> SickOfWindows, it can't give your identity away without your name, derrr
[04:09] <psusi> SickOfWindows: so it knows what to call you
[04:09] <SickOfWindows> TakeOut{u}: i don't get it
[04:10] <vorbote> SickOfWindows: In the end, it doesn't really matter, (unless you want to install NetBSD in another partition, that one is a doozy).
[04:10] <SickOfWindows> psusi: can't it call me by my "host computer name"
[04:10] <LeKe> hi! somebody know how to change the subtitle color in totem? the font may change in ~/.gconf/apps/totem/%gconf.xml
[04:10] <SickOfWindows> vorbote: ok.
[04:10] <Jack3> psusi,it FIXED IT!
[04:10] <Jack3> YAY
[04:10] <vorbote> SickOfWindows: So, just say no, and keep local time.
[04:10] <SickOfWindows> SickOfWindows = IgnorantOfComputerStuff
[04:10] <Jack3> time to rebootz0rz

[04:11] <budluva> Jordan_U, linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-15-386
[04:11] <Assassin`> what do you guys suggest for music downloads
[04:11] <SickOfWindows> yahoo, it's now installing Base syntem!!!!
[04:11] <Assassin`> didn't like nicotine or azureus
[04:11] <Ivan_> probably an annoying questions by now, but ps3 wifi, how?
[04:12] <SickOfWindows> Assassin`: nicotine is bad for us
[04:12] <Assassin`> the program?
[04:12] <SickOfWindows> Assassin`: i'm just playing. i know nicotine is a computer program
[04:12] <Assassin`> not ciggarettes
[04:12] <SickOfWindows> 8-)
[04:12] <SickOfWindows> by your contecxt
[04:12] <Assassin`> but whats good for music?
[04:12] <Assassin`> :)
[04:12] <harpette> Assassin`: sorry , am not using a peer-to-peer software, so i wouldn't know
[04:12] <SickOfWindows> Assassin`: lsd
[04:13] <vorbote> Assassin`: it is not a matter of which client you use, but what p2p network you want to use. That's not a theme to discuss here (not even on Freenode). May I suggest you read http://slyck.com/ ?
[04:13] <Jordan_U> !p2p | Assassin`

[04:19] <Alias|> teleforce^: have you got to the part of the installation where it shows you your partition layout and allows you to alter it?
[04:19] <SickOfWindows> is it truet hat .04 versions are beta while .10 velsions of buntu are the stable ones?
[04:19] <cjae> irishman
[04:19] <Irishman2020_> cjae: one sec
[04:19] <dawn_chorus> SickOfWindows, they're all beta.  :)
[04:20] <cjae> Irishman2020_,  what do you mean drag and drop
[04:20] <modern> no
[04:20] <teleforce^> Alias - i never got to a screen where the install disk asked me for a partition layout!
[04:20] <vbabiy> hey john_ you around
[04:20] <MyG> i guess i will have to ask later ^^
[04:20] <Irishman2020_> cjae: one sec
[04:20] <Alias|> teleforce^: Then your problem probably lies elsewhere. :-) How far did you get with the install CD?
[04:21] <penguin> does anyone have a recomendation as to what i could use to replace the tool bars in ubuntu with something a little nicer, excluding beryl as i only have a 16mb video card
[04:21] <teleforce^> the ubuntu iso i got, seems to not want to get to an install screen that i am familiar with
[04:21] <vbabiy> hey guys can any one tell me if this is 64bit http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21093/
[04:21] <teleforce^> gets to this menu
[04:21] <scoobydoo28139> i like maxpc they are our friends:)
[04:21] <Jordan_U> teleforce^, There is an install application on the desktop of the LiveCD
[04:21] <teleforce^> and this menu dosn't want to do much of anything
[04:21] <john_> vbabiy: just came back
[04:21] <Alias|> teleforce^: The ubuntu installer CD is a Live CD. It boots into an Ubuntu environment and then you have to run the installer from within that environment. The icon for the installer is usually on the desktop in the top-left hand corner.
[04:22] <vbabiy> john_ can you take a look at that paste bin http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21093/
[04:22] <teleforce^> ok
[04:22] <SickOfWindows> dawn_chorus: i see
[04:22] <teleforce^> any way to not boot into the ubuntu environment?
[04:22] <teleforce^> (i think my crappy computer can't handle the live cd)
[04:23] <Alias|> teleforce^: I haven't used the Alternate CD, but I think it boots straight to the installer rather than to a live CD.
[04:23] <vbabiy> john_ is that 64bit
[04:23] <dawn_chorus> SickOfWindows, only kidding, though Ubuntu is pretty bleeding edge.  If you're looking for super stable, and not so cutting edge (which can lead to instability), try another distro.  :)
[04:23] <dawn_chorus> teleforce^, how much RAM?
[04:23] <bruenig> teleforce^, you need to install it to boot into it if the live cd isn't working
[04:23] <Jordan_U> !alternate | teleforce^
[04:23] <ubotu> teleforce^: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[04:23] <teleforce^> yeah, the one i got dosn't want to get into the installer
[04:23] <linux__alien> my resolv.conf gets overwritten with some address during reboot of my system everytime. I want resolv.conf not to be modified how do i stop it from happening
[04:23] <teleforce^> it tries to load it into memory, and it craps out :/
[04:23] <linux__alien> the network-manager does the modification everytime during the startup of my system
[04:24] <teleforce^> i got 196Mb of ram
[04:24] <bruenig> linux__alien, do grep -l resolv.conf /etc/init.d/* and see which script is doing it
[04:24] <Jordan_U> teleforce^, That should be enough but is pushing it, I would try the Alternate CD
[04:24] <dawn_chorus> teleforce^, try xubuntu.
[04:24] <bruenig> don't try xubuntu
[04:24] <byen> hey fellas anyone know how i can enable a dropdown menu in epiphany in the address box?
[04:24] <bruenig> the last release was awful
[04:24] <dawn_chorus> bruenig, why?
[04:24] <teleforce^> where do i get the alternate cd?
[04:24] <linux__alien> bruenig, its pppd-dns
[04:24] <dawn_chorus> bruenig, no it wasn't.
[04:25] <Andune> anyone else using a USB headset with Ubuntu?
[04:25] <bruenig> linux__alien, so open it up and be careful, but comment out the offending lines
[04:25] <bruenig> dawn_chorus, twas
[04:25] <Jack3> psusi, you there?
[04:25] <dawn_chorus> bruenig, well, you have your opinion, i have mine.  :)
[04:25] <Jack3> psusi, i rebooted, and it said that it failed to mount the swap
[04:25] <bruenig> dawn_chorus, I have used it across 3 versions, it was the worse release
[04:25] <natsumey> anyone here have quick how-to for newbie to setup and configure cluster + gfs
[04:26] <dawn_chorus> bruenig, what led you to that conclusion?
[04:26] <burnerx> there is no support for Epson AL-C1100 in 7.04 ??
[04:26] <Jack3> psusi, and when i tried loggin in, it just showed the konsole window but without a gui, like kde wouldnt start
[04:26] <linux__alien> bruenig, but i dont see the place where it exactly writes to resolv.conf in that file
[04:26] <Jordan_U> teleforce^, http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso
[04:26] <bruenig> dawn_chorus, http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m290/bruenig/artifacts.png
[04:26] <vbabiy> hey john_ any luck
[04:26] <bruenig> dawn_chorus, everything crashed all the time, even stuff like the xfce calender thing orage would class
[04:27] <linux__alien> bruenig, i get 192.168.1.1 as the DNS address in the resolv.conf automatically during startup its because of the peer dyns i believe but i dont know how to stop it
[04:27] <bruenig> linux__alien, do some ctrl + f to find where it says resolv.conf
[04:27] <john_> vbabiy: looking
[04:27] <dawn_chorus> bruenig, wow.  i run it on my laptop.  like a dream.  though the boot takes fo ev a.
[04:27] <vbabiy> thanks john_
[04:28] <bruenig> dawn_chorus, that was a good run too, seeing as I was able to screenshot it. The other times it was just go
[04:28] <bruenig> down
[04:28] <dawn_chorus> bruenig, too bad.  i'm really enjoying my xubunt!  :)
[04:28] <ep|k> hi
[04:28] <ep|k> need help
[04:29] <bruenig> The new features of xfce are kind of disappointing too all the clutter in the bar at the top
[04:29] <Assassin`> ok im a super noob
[04:29] <john_> vbabiy: Looking at this http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/how-do-i-find-out-if-my-server-cpu-can-run-a-64-bit-kernel-version-apps-or-not.html it looks like it is.
[04:29] <ep|k> how to solve this --> [Wed May 16 10:28:23 2007]  [error]  VirtualHost *:80 -- mixing * ports and non-* ports with a NameVirtualHost address is not supported, proceeding with undefined results

[04:29] <Assassin`> can someone tell me how i would uninstall something
[04:29] <weston> I just installed Beryl but it is not working.. I right click the red diamond and select Beryl as Window Manager, the open windows blink a few times (fast) and I go back in to menu and it's still set to Metacity
[04:29] <Assassin`> for example azureus
[04:29] <bruenig> Assassin`, how did you install it
[04:29] <vbabiy> yeah hey john_ do you know how i can find out if it found my gigabit nic alos
[04:29] <Assassin`> in the terminal
[04:29] <ep|k> how to enable virtualhost
[04:29] <vbabiy> also
[04:29] <teleforce^> what is a good link for the Ubuntu command line install?
[04:29] <bruenig> Assassin`, with what command?
[04:29] <Assassin`> sudo aptitude install azureus
[04:30] <bruenig> Assassin`, sudo aptitude remove azureus
[04:30] <Assassin`> sudo aptitude uninstall azureus
[04:30] <Assassin`> o
[04:30] <Assassin`> ok
[04:30] <Assassin`> ty
[04:30] <Assassin`> remove is the command :)
[04:30] <chandi> im lost on how to check md5 sum :(, ive downloaded image, but what do i check
[04:30] <weston> Does anyone have a simple answer to why Beryl will not activate??
[04:30] <bruenig> weston, #ubuntu-effects
[04:30] <weston> ok thanks
[04:30] <bruenig> chandi, are you on linux?
[04:30] <chandi> no windows right now

[04:31] <bruenig> chandi, ask if people know any windows tools to check md5sum
[04:31] <chandi> ok on linux, what does the tool check, the actual image or the md5file
[04:32] <Assassin`> can someone tell me what would be good for mounting .iso images?
[04:32] <Assassin`> :)
[04:32] <chandi> because i have a tool on windows but im not sure what im suppose to check
[04:32] <bruenig> chandi, on linux you have options, you can do md5sum image.iso and it will tell you the image, or you can do md5sum -c md5file and it will check the image mentioned in the file and compare and output ok or not
[04:32] <vorbote> chandi: Look here http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/ I'm sure you'll find something there.

[04:34] <PriceChild> Transience, have you tried?
[04:34] <Transience> no
[04:34] <teleforce^> ok you rougue, i will try your alternate command line install
[04:34] <Transience> i'd like to know before i install
[04:35] <PriceChild> Transience, that's what the live cd environment is for :)
[04:35] <Transience> oh

[04:36] <Hawker> I don't reccomend getting feisty just yet.
[04:37] <Hawker> Internet is uber slow with it.
[04:37] <w1ls0n_> ?
[04:37] <Zigosity> My internet runs just as fast with feisty.
[04:37] <Zigosity> :\
[04:37] <cein> internet is slow?
[04:37] <dostek> hawker my internet ran fine
[04:37] <etzerd> hello all
[04:37] <Hawker> Mine doesn't, some others are having the same problem as me.
[04:37] <w1ls0n_> howdy
[04:37] <etzerd> ?
[04:37] <Hawker> Although it's going pretty fast today.
[04:37] <PriceChild> Hawker, that's not ubuntu ;)
[04:37] <w1ls0n_> maybe it's your dialup :P
[04:37] <Pelo> Hawker, are you sure it isn't just your tubes that need unclogging ?
[04:38] <dostek> Does anyone know if the sata_promise module can be exported from ubunt into debian?
[04:38] <Hawker> My internet is running fine now too.
[04:38] <Pelo> dostek, you might have better luck in the forum
[04:38] <Hawker> I have wireless so it's a bit wierd.
[04:38] <etzerd> can anyone tell me between Gnome and KDE which one is best?
[04:38] <john_> etzerd: That is a matter of openion try them both.
[04:38] <w1ls0n_> etzerd, Gnome.  However, this is a matter of opinion.
[04:38] <dostek> Pelo I've been foruming for 5 hours lol
[04:39] <Dracula}X{> I like gnome myself
[04:39] <Pelo> etzerd,  it's a question of personnal pref,   generaly new users tend to prefer gnome while advance users like the versatility of kde
[04:39] <Hawker> msg nickserv register Hawker nick15
[04:39] <Hawker> Oy
[04:39] <jyrk> i want to be able to exit X by pressing ctrl-alt-backspace, without it restarting. how do I accomplish this?
[04:39] <pot> I set my panel size to 120 pixels - but the icons are still 48px, even though the png's are 128px
[04:39] <john_> etzerd: I'm an advanced user and I really don't like KDE, it's just each to his / (unlikely) own.
[04:40] <pot> how do i make the gnome panel icons bigger to fit the size of the panel ?
[04:40] <Pelo> jyrk, you might want to try another key combination
[04:40] <etzerd> WilsOn: I like Gnome don't take me wrong. But for someone like me from Microsoft Windows I see KDE is more likely. But the issue with KDE is when you use the add new program when you click on a program it take too long to be selected.
[04:40] <vorbote> dostek: You can't use binaries from Debian and Ubuntu interchangeably, but you can recompile the sources. You could port the Ubuntu kernel to Debian.
[04:40] <jyrk> Pelo, like what?
[04:40] <Pelo> pot, I donT' think you can
[04:40] <etzerd> John: I agree with you.
[04:40] <dostek> vorbote> its not a binary
[04:40] <Pelo> alt F2
[04:40] <Pelo> jyrk,  sorry alt F1
[04:41] <vorbote> dostek: all kernel drivers are binary
[04:41] <Zigosity> I'm trying to share folders on my ubuntu box with a windows PC, but I keep getting a "\\family\temp is not accessible. The share name was not found. Be sure you typed it correctly." error when I try and open a folder over the network. (Temp is a shared folder).
[04:41] <grayscale> question: I'm trying to run Kivio in Feisty and it shows the process running in the system monitor, but no program appears in X.
[04:41] <dostek> vorbote> The Ubuntu team has obviously patched the sata_promise module as PATA support for my PDC20378 is not in the vanilla kernel
[04:41] <grayscale> Anyone run into a similar problem?
[04:41] <jyrk> ok, but i need it to actually stop the x server, not just jump into the console. does that mean i have to manually run the stop script?
[04:41] <w1ls0n_> Zigosity, try smb://family/temp
[04:42] <w1ls0n_> Zigosity, or smb:// with the IP
[04:42] <vorbote> dostek: that's exactly what I wrote: port the kernel from ubuntu to debian -> recompile under debian.
[04:42] <Pelo> jyrk,  this is a little over my head sorry
[04:42] <troxor> jyrk: /etc/init.d/gdm stop
[04:42] <dostek> vorbote> Sorry I misunderstood. No way to just export the sata_promise driver ;-)
[04:43] <vorbote> dostek: Yes there is, if you know what the files are and can whip up a makefile for them against the Debian kernel source
[04:43] <jyrk> troxor: you wouldnt happen to know how to make a keyboard shortcut that will do that sequence for me, like ctrl-alt-backspace used to, would you?
[04:43] <ubuntubeginz> hi guys wat is a gud mp3 player for ubuntu.. (def not rhythm box).. anything else
[04:43] <Catoptromancy_> yay xubuntu back online
[04:44] <w1ls0n_> what's wrong with rhythmbox?
[04:44] <enigma_> exaile
[04:44] <vitalstatistix> anyone here using latest gnome-power-manager with use_time_for_policy in gconf set?
[04:44] <dostek> vorbote> hrmmmmm....lol ok I think i may port the ubunt kernel over to debian but that kind of defeats the prupose of running debian lol
[04:44] <Catoptromancy_> Kaffeine with a bunch of codecs
[04:44] <w1ls0n_> ubuntubeginz, look in the package manager.  there're a lot to choose from
[04:44] <vorbote> Else, just grab the ubbuntu source package, and run a debuild on it in Debian (pbuilder works nicer).
[04:44] <ubuntubeginz> w1lson: just a suggestion from anyone of U guys...
[04:44] <Pelo> w1ls0n_,  nothing is wrong with rhythmbox but there are some hardcore music listener out there
[04:44] <troxor> jyrk: if all else fails, you can use xbindkeys.. I don't recall any util in gnome offhand, but there might be one
[04:45] <cjae> Irishman2020_, sorry lost connection
[04:45] <travlerman> how do i program ubuntu to access my windows computer  cause im on dialup and the computer with ubuntu has no modem in it
[04:45] <jyrk> k. thanks, troxor
[04:45] <cjae> had you asked me
[04:45] <ubuntubeginz> looking for somthing close to winamp..
[04:45] <Assassin`> nothing will open an .exe? n00by question
[04:45] <w1ls0n_> ubuntubeginz, If you like winamp then try XMMS
[04:45] <w1ls0n_> ubuntubeginz, it's basically the same thing
[04:45] <vorbote> dostek: not necessarily. Have you tried with a Sid kernel? (Debian's kernels are nowhere close to vainilla either).
[04:45] <Pelo> ubuntubeginz,  amorak , listen , songbird , beep music plaer,  xmms
[04:45] <vitalstatistix> anyone here having issues with gnome-power-manager and use_time_for_policy=false in gconf?
[04:45] <troxor> jyrk: you can also alias it to something in .bashrc (say, `etgr`), then alt+f2, type etgr, and there you go
[04:45] <ubuntubeginz> thanks guys... will try em
[04:46] <Catoptromancy> Assassin`, wine can open .exe
[04:46] <dostek> vorbote> Nah not tried the Sid kernel but i did compile a Vanilla with the same config hoping the driver had been updated
[04:46] <Catoptromancy> .exe is for windows only
[04:46] <cjae> Irishman2020_, had u answered me
[04:46] <vitalstatistix> this gconf setting never gets picked up by gnome-power-manager on my machine so I wrote my own patch
[04:47] <w1ls0n_> When using wine, does one need to be root?
[04:47] <troxor> ubuntubeginz: xmms is kinda old... try audacious and/or bmp/ or bmpx
[04:47] <pot> Anyone know how to use large icons on the gnome panel ?
[04:47] <DGMurdockIII> hi
[04:47] <vitalstatistix> also, some may realize the hal updates farked up the whole thing
[04:48] <ablyss> w1ls0n_ no
[04:48] <ubuntubeginz> troxor: okie ..will try em also
[04:48] <i_is_cat> why didnt ubuntu ask me for a root pass?
[04:48] <i_is_cat> :/
[04:48] <w1ls0n_> great.
[04:48] <penguin> grrr... i have a huge problem, I cant get anarok to play mp3s... it said it could but nothing loads into the collection D:

[04:48] <penguin> *amarok
[04:48] <pot> !root
[04:48] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[04:48] <dostek> vorbote> Another Q in Ubuntu i use 1280x1024 resolution but in Wine it uses the same and the font is not readable any easy way to change the resolution for wine apps
[04:48] <vorbote> dostek: in fact, debian and ubuntu share many patches to the kernel. Ubuntu goest two steps further and includes things that debian supplies as extra (for the sake of simplicity) and add further things.
[04:48] <Assassin`> i c
 Assassin`, wine can open .exe
[04:48] <vitalstatistix> i_is_cat: ubuntu doesn't use a root password
[04:48] <Assassin`> i c now
[04:48] <YA_newbie> How do I modify fstab(?) to keep it from mounting a FAT32 partition I don't want mounted at startup?
[04:48] <i_is_cat> how do i login as root if i want to?
[04:48] <penguin> can someone toss me some advice please?
[04:48] <troxor> pot: you mean the shortcut icons (eg, by default web browser, et al next to System menu) ?
[04:49] <mcrandello> Hi I'm tryingto set up an irda device and having problems can someone help?
[04:49] <ablyss> YA_newbie vi /etc/fstab
[04:49] <Pelo> !mp3 > penguin  check for a pm from ubotu
[04:49] <christopherwilso> Has anyone else experienced the live CD hanging up before the first install?
[04:49] <i_is_cat> because i set the box up for someone else and they dont remember the pass
[04:49] <DGMurdockIII> i have a qustion
[04:49] <dostek> vorbote> I would love to one day sit down and compile a customer kernel for my PC ;-)
[04:49] <mcrandello> christopherwilso: I had that problem, it had to do with a radeon 200m on a cheap laptop
[04:49] <pot> troxor : yes - launcher icons on the panel - i made the panel size to 128px but the icons still cap at 48px =\
[04:49] <Pelo> christopherwilso, use the cd integrity check in the boot menu
[04:49] <mcrandello> there were 7 devices sharing an irq
[04:49] <vorbote> dostek: That has more to do with the quality of your video drivers (and wine's fonts). You can edit wine's registry (but I've never tried).
[04:49] <DGMurdockIII> Is there a driver for the Century CD storage device for ubuntu
[04:49] <christopherwilso> Thanks, but the CD check passed.
[04:49] <penguin> curses.. a bot -_-
[04:50] <troxor> pot: which icon theme? have you tried "crystal svg" (a vector image theme) for fun? vector images scale essentially infinitely, losslessly
[04:50] <dostek> vorbote> yeh i tired wit hno luck on the editing of wine reg for reoslution
[04:50] <Pelo> christopherwilso, when does it hang ?
[04:50] <i_is_cat> do i have to boot from the live disc and change it?
[04:50] <christopherwilso> Would setting a different display help? Like the safe graphics mode or is there something else?
[04:50] <pot> troxor - not on the panel - check for yourself - make the panel size over 100 pixels
[04:50] <vorbote> dostek: compiling a custom kernel is very easy with the help of kernel-package.
[04:50] <SickOfWindows> my text install has been stuck at 18% for 15-20 minutes now
[04:50] <SickOfWindows> what must i do+
[04:50] <SickOfWindows> ?
[04:51] <vorbote> dostek: and yes, that wine's registry can be as devilish as the original...
[04:51] <macd> SickOfWindows, wait, or restart
[04:51] <pot> troxor i'm using 256x256 PNG's
[04:51] <DGMurdockIII> Is there a driver for the Century CD storage device for ubuntu?
[04:51] <dostek> vorbote> yeh i ment to fit my specific PC but ill never get the PATA sata_promise thing working
[04:51] <i_is_cat> :/

[04:51] <Pelo> DGMurdockIII,  ubuntu supports most hardware ,  you can try checking the hardware make and model in the forum for mor info if you think you need
[04:51] <teleforce^> hey, why should I use Ubuntu again?
[04:52] <penguin> is it just me or is the site down?

[04:52] <w1ls0n_> Does anyone know anything about prism wireless cards & ubuntu 7.04?
[04:52] <troxor> pot: ah, you speak the truth.. deskbar applet and volume control scale, but you're right.. I'm not sure how to make those bigger, sorry :\
[04:52] <groogs[h] > I have CUPS setup to print to a local print (parallel port), and I have it working in samba as well.. however, samba clients can only print to it when the lp group has write access to /var/spool/cups.. but something (not sure what, yet) keeps resetting it:  "drwx--x---  3 cupsys lp     4096 2007-05-02 08:03 cups/".  am i doing something totally wrong?

[04:53] <SickOfWindows> macd: i worry that it will stop at 18percent in future attempts
[04:53] <mcrandello> Pelo: have a channel list downloaded from a while ago, didn't see anything that jumped right out at me
[04:53] <DGMurdockIII> any other way
[04:53] <penguin> thank you pelo
[04:53] <w1ls0n_> SickOfWindows, I once had a similar problem and got through it by taking the cd out, putting it back in and then resuming.
[04:53] <Pelo> mcrandello, check the site of that prog,  there maybe one listed on there, might not be freenode
[04:53] <SickOfWindows> w1ls0n_: too late. I've just restarted
[04:53] <macd> SickOfWindows, if the CD passes the verification, then you may want to try again, elsewise post a bug with output from lspci (so we know your hardware)
[04:54] <scoobydoo28139> there isn't much hope for my tv card is there?
[04:54] <SickOfWindows> won't taking the cd out make bad things happen
[04:54] <macd> SickOfWindows, not likely
[04:54] <mcrandello> Pelo: thx I'll try that. A lot of documentation that seems to start at the genius level then gets harder.
[04:54] <SickOfWindows> macd: can i get output from lspci if i can't get ubuntu installed in the first place?
[04:54] <Catoptromancy_> Assassin`, sudo wine program.exe ?
[04:54] <groogs[h] > scoobydoo28139: lots of cards are supported by video4linux
[04:54] <Pelo> mcrandello, well we all have to start somewhere
[04:54] <macd> SickOfWindows, can you boot the livecd?
[04:55] <SickOfWindows> macd i'm using altenarte install
[04:55] <Punkunity> whats video4linux groogs[h]  ?
[04:55] <SickOfWindows> i've had problems with desktop cd
[04:55] <troxor> w1ls0n_: at least one prism card works in feisty ;)
[04:55] <w1ls0n_> troxor, have you any idea what "(prism54pci): Cannot read eeprom!" means?
[04:55] <macd> SickOfWindows, not likely then, you should search for install bugs with your hardware.
[04:55] <scoobydoo28139> groogs, can i get that veia synaptic downloader?
[04:55] <w1ls0n_> in dmesg.
[04:56] <SickOfWindows> macd:  what are you referring to in"not likely then"?
[04:56] <troxor> w1ls0n_: certainly nothing good, where is that being displayed?
[04:56] <troxor> w1ls0n_: oops, sorry.. dmesg.. hmm
[04:56] <w1ls0n_> troxor, dmesg after I load the modules.
[04:56] <macd> SickOfWindows, not likely to get the livecd booted and get lspci.
[04:56] <jyrk> i can view files on windows machines over my samba shares, but when I try to copy them, i get a message saying I have insufficient permissions. anyone know how to fix this?
[04:57] <w1ls0n_> troxor, I've tried everything that's in english on launchpad and the ubuntu forums.  None of the solutions have worked so far.
[04:57] <macd> w1ls0n_, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/106987
[04:57] <troxor> w1ls0n_: eeprom is the ROM chip on the card.. probably referring to the card's firmware, what card is it?
[04:57] <SickOfWindows> maybe i accidentally hit pause on my keyboard. is there a pause function when instalaiton is happening?
[04:57] <macd> w1ls0n_, its a known issue, with a known fix ;)
[04:57] <Irishman2020_> SickOfWindows: I dont think so
[04:57] <Pelo> jyrk,  you may get better help on this in #samba
[04:57] <womble> Are there instructions anywhere for updating the install CD to support new hardware, either to add new driver modules to the initrd or to build a whole new kernel/initrd for replacement on the CD?  Running Dapper, in particular.  An hour or so with Google and the wiki hasn't provided me with anything useful.  The "KernelCustomBuild" page has an unanswered question on that subject, which doesn't fill me with optimism...

[04:58] <SickOfWindows> i've tried installing for the 2nd time now, and the installation halted a lot sooner than the 1st time
[04:58] <macd> w1ls0n_, actually its in progress, the fix hasnt been committed yet
[04:58] <i_is_cat> so i should use the livecd then? :/
[04:58] <necrodrako> how do i know which device is my cd drive in ubuntu 7.04, so i may mount it
[04:58] <DGMurdockIII> anyone now how to get Century CD work?
[04:58] <macd> SickOfWindows, If I were you, Id check the cd integrity first, then concern yourself with the problem if it doesnt fail.
[04:58] <w1ls0n_> macd, I've read that.  I don't see a solution
[04:59] <SickOfWindows> macd: i have. CD integrity shows prefect.\
[04:59] <macd> w1ls0n_, refer to bug 90902
[04:59] <Pelo> i_is_cat,  check in the forum for recover password
[04:59] <macd> w1ls0n_, the fix appears to be in progress.
[04:59] <vorbote> womble: You may want to look for the Debian Installer manual (it is somewhere in debian.org or the debian wiki site).
[04:59] <Pelo> DGMurdockIII, check the forum
[04:59] <macd> w1ls0n_, they also talk about using a newer version of firmware, have you tried that?
[05:00] <joemauch> hi, i can't get Ubuntu Feisty to see my raid 1+0 on my ICH7R, it just sees seperate drives, not the single NTFS volume on the drives
[05:00] <w1ls0n_> macd, I tried updating and found that it was updated already.  Do you know how to get the version?
[05:00] <dabaR> Do any of you guys multi-boot with openbsd?
[05:00] <macd> w1ls0n_, " for i in /lib/firmware/`uname -r`/isl*; do echo "$i:"; strings $i | grep Vers ; echo -ne "\n\n"; done " should work

[05:02] <dr_willis> digital_funeral,  you got another ubuntu pc with access to the net?
[05:03] <digital_funeral> dr_willis: nope
[05:03] <Pelo> digital_funeral,   put the live cd in ,  sudo apt-get update,   sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:03] <macd> digital_funeral, download all the packages onto a usb stick or cdrom then use dpkg to install them
[05:03] <digital_funeral> pelo:ty
[05:03] <joemauch> vorbote: i installed it via synaptic, but i'm not sure where to go from there, fdisk -l still lists seperate discs instead of the single volume.
[05:03] <macd> Pelo, does the livecd have build-essential ?
[05:03] <womble> Catoptromancy: sudo -K
[05:03] <setuid> Can someone tell me if Feisty includes full-disk encryption at install time?
[05:03] <Pelo> macd, I'm pretty sure it does
[05:03] <dr_willis> setuid,  not at install time - that i saw.,
[05:04] <macd> Pelo, digital_funeral that method also assumes one has cdrom sources in apt/sources.list
[05:04] <Pelo> macd, but I have been known to be wrong os several occasion
[05:04] <budluva> if im going to setup a dual-boot pc, should i install vista or ubuntu first?
[05:04] <harry> Can I tell my computer to act as an alarm clock?
[05:04] <dr_willis> setuid,  at least not on the livecd. alt install may.. But ive not heard it mentioned.
[05:04] <vorbote> joemauch: You need to set up a dmraid device with dmsetup.
[05:04] <Catoptromancy> $ sudo -K
[05:04] <Catoptromancy> sudo: timestamp too far in the future: May 16 08:16:48 2007
[05:04] <dr_willis> harry,  you can set the pc to do things at a specific time.. yes.
[05:04] <macd> budluva, windows first.
[05:04] <EADG> budluva: vista then ubuntu
[05:04] <vorbote> joemauch: (I don't have much experience with such set ups but it isn't difficult).
[05:04] <Pelo> harry,  there is probably a package to do that,  check in  add/remove and in synaptic
[05:04] <Punkunity> its registered now
[05:04] <Irishman2020_> harry: theres a package
[05:04] <mboman> budluva: always MS first. Linux knows how to co-operate, Microsoft doesn't
[05:05] <dr_willis> !find alarmclock
[05:05] <Irishman2020_> harry: check synaptic package manager... theres an alarm clock there
[05:05] <ubotu> Package/file alarmclock does not exist in feisty
[05:05] <Punkunity> vorbote, I registered but still cannot talk in channel
[05:05] <Irishman2020_> !find alarm
[05:05] <ubotu> Found: kalarm, bmp-alarm, xmms-alarm
[05:05] <SickOfWindows> guys, in my text install, it's on the "Configuring xserver-xorg" screen. There are a lot of choisec for video modes/resolutions, but only the bottom 3 resolutions are chosen. Does this mean that if i put a check mark on the higher resolutions, i may have problems? If not, why then did the text install only choose the lowest 3 resolutions?
[05:05] <dr_willis> Punkunity,  you also need to be indentified to nickserve
[05:05] <budluva> this is stupid having to dual boot just to play a friggin game
[05:06] <setuid> budluva, Then stop dual-booting
[05:06] <womble> Catoptromancy: Well that's... odd.  Do you have any other way to get root on the box?  If so, you could delete the timestamp by hand.
[05:06] <dr_willis> budluva,  now ya know why i ditched the games..
[05:06] <Irishman2020_> harry: there are 3 above, xmms-alarm and bmp-alarm play music for your alarm using xmms or bmp
[05:06] <macd> SickOfWindows, choose the ones your screen and video card support
[05:06] <setuid> budluva, How much have you donated to the Wine project?
[05:06] <Pelo> SickOfWindows,  it just means, you'll hav eto add them manualy after , not biggy
[05:06] <SickOfWindows>  budluva, or setuid or stop playing that game 8-)
[05:06] <Catoptromancy> womble, how do I delete timestamp?

[05:07] <w1ls0n_> macd, nautilus (root) says I don't have permission to move or delete the old firmware files.

[05:13] <macd> Khrajin, I'm 99% sure your problem is an older issue, are you installing from the livecd? and this is after install? or is this on the livecd start?
[05:13] <hitmanWilly> Jack3_: swapon <device of swap partition>
[05:13] <Punkunity> cables asomeone else said that I was muted, and that WAS my original question about this whole problem

[05:14] <Irishman2020_> zabin: what problems?
[05:14] <Khrajin> macd: The CD (iso burned to cd) was downloaded about 3-4 days after Fiesty was released.

[05:15] <Irishman2020_> zabin: or is this just installing ubuntu for the first time?
[05:15] <macd> Khrajin, they follow relatively the same core updates path.
[05:15] <freeza> kubuntu, ubuntu and xubuntu have the same exact base system which is feisty
[05:15] <hitmanWilly> Khrajin: they use the same repos, so yes

[05:16] <Khrajin> freeza: Ty :D
[05:16] <zabin> i have installed ubuntu fresh on a 6 gig hard drive to see if i can get this to work

[05:16] <zabin> I tried using envy but that didnt work
[05:16] <macd> !opera

[05:16] <freeza> peepsalot, yes
[05:16] <ubotu> opera is an advanced and free (only as in price) web browser.  Install it via Applications->Add/Remove..., making sure that "Show commercial applications" (dapper only) is checked. For more info on opera please see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OperaBrowser

[05:17] <freeza> although you can just goto opera.com and download the deb package for feisty and double click it to install, same thing
[05:17] <darklard> budlova: yes
[05:17] <dr_willis> livingtm,  i dont think im using that method.
[05:17] <Irishman2020_> cjae: did you get the popup?
[05:17] <budluva> darklard, ok right click, then goto open volume control
[05:17] <cjae> irshman what popup

[05:18] <freeza> yeah
[05:18] <budluva> darklard, is external amp clicked in preferences?
[05:18] <macd> craigbass1976, you'll have to paste your named.conf.local file
[05:19] <cjae> irishman they have to be maximum windows size
[05:19] <Khrajin> freeza: How did you unbrick? I tried shorting pin 16... But I have a feeling it isn't doing what it should be. Would you mind helpin?
[05:19] <bootbat> Hi all...

[05:19] <freeza> Khrajin, never tried to unbrick sorry, just threw it away lol
[05:20] <troxor> ultimateq: isn't that message displayed by the bios when none of the drives are bootable?

[05:21] <rollerskatejamms> Anybody know what langauge Nautilus is written in? C?
[05:21] <ultimateq> rastari: I installed ubuntustudio fresh then I got the error. found some suggestions that i should set my hd access mode to large in the bios, but that did not fix it, even with a fresh install
[05:21] <Khrajin> macd: Mmm dling @ 463KB/sec <knocks on wood> 22 mins remaining.
[05:21] <darklard> budlova: is okay I have Master : PCM : LineIn : Ext Mic : Int Mic : IntMic  for options

[05:21] <freeza> ahh
[05:21] <budluva> darklard, wiki.ubuntu.com
[05:21] <macd> !nvidia | zabin
[05:21] <ubotu> zabin: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[05:21] <fsckr> i know this isn't the channel to ask this but does anyone have any recommendations on where to "rent" servers
[05:21] <rAstari> ultimateq:u got a dual boot? or no?
[05:21] <Catoptromancy_> I had to fix a few things
[05:21] <cjae> Irishman2020_, I finally got a pop that says right click save target as or copy link into dl manager
[05:22] <craigbass1976> macd, yes, and also the arpa one
[05:22] <Punkunity> hello
[05:22] <darklard> budlova ah thnx i'll check into there
[05:22] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy_where are we now?
[05:22] <Khrajin> Per Macd's suggestion of my error being something that was happening on the earlier 7.04 release
[05:22] <Irishman2020_> there yea go
[05:22] <freeza> never been a fan of kde, too windows-y
[05:22] <Catoptromancy_> im downloading it
[05:22] <Catoptromancy_> it seems there are binaries also
[05:22] <dr_willis> freeza,  gotta love sterotyping. :)
[05:22] <Khrajin> freeza, I like good looking gui's
[05:22] <Catoptromancy_> have you tried those?
[05:22] <ultimateq> rAstari: I installed it with windows to try a dual boot, but when that failed. I tried it by itself, with nothing else. I still get the error
[05:22] <budluva> darklard, what kind of sound card do you have?
[05:22] <ultimateq> I'm baffled
[05:22] <freeza> lol i mean its true isnt it
[05:23] <macd> craigbass1976, and they have the proper permissions? (I just dont know the parse order for bind so elimintaing everything)
[05:23] <Khrajin> freeza: Stereotypin?
[05:23] <darklard> not entirely sure i can get exact name but it's intel brand in a toshiba laptop
[05:23] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, I am blonde and I don't want those but I want last stable inbstallation to use one particular prog. bins are in dev elopment
[05:23] <darklard> budlova
[05:23] <lontra> what is the package that provides the metacity window borders for the human theme?
[05:23] <freeza> Khrajin, nah the fact that kde is too windows-y
[05:23] <moose_> hi folks, quick question: will ubuntu automatically detect and adjust if I swap out my AMD athlon 64 3000+ with an X2 3800+?
[05:23] <Khrajin> freeza: lol :P true, but i think it looks better than windows.
[05:24] <craigbass1976> macd, Well I just chowned them both so bind owned them, and still same error.
[05:24] <Catoptromancy_> steel_lady, which exact package you install? direct link
[05:24] <danny3793> moose_: it should yes
[05:24] <macd> moose_, what release of ubuntu?
[05:24] <moose_> 7.04
[05:24] <Khrajin> moose_: yes, it's just a upgrade like RAM.
[05:24] <moose_> ok cool, thanks!
[05:24] <freeza> if you dont have a custom kernel installed you will be fine
[05:24] <Khrajin> moose_: Careful with swapping CPU's. take your time
[05:24] <macd> moose_, as long as your running the amd64 kernel, no problemo.
[05:24] <peepsalot> gpg: WARNING: unsafe ownership on configuration file `/home/peeps/.gnupg/gpg.conf'
[05:25] <adrenaline_> I need a ubuntu & samba pro
[05:25] <steel_lady> Catopt ftp://ftp.astro.umd.edu/progs/bima/miriad_ia32.tar.gz
[05:25] <cables> macd, no need for that, the -generic kernel will run fine on 64bit processors.
[05:25] <peepsalot> anyone know what that error message means
[05:25] <scarter> network issues after hibernation startup. stop/start of bcm43xx and stop/start of networking have no effect. could this be a gnome-network-manager issue?
[05:25] <Khrajin> freeza: Custom Kernel + KDe = :( ?
[05:25] <weird_> j #brasil
[05:25] <macd> cabldevil, yeah Im stuck in the past before generic.
[05:25] <moose_> im running the generic kernel: 2.6.20-15-generic
[05:25] <freeza> no
[05:25] <macd> cables*
[05:25] <danny3793> scarter: i have a similar issue, except mine crashes the entire computer when it goes to sleep, lol
[05:25] <macd> craigbass1976, what exact error is bind spitting at you?
[05:25] <freeza> but if he has custom kernel he might have disabled the extensions for other cpus
[05:26] <Catoptromancy_> steel_lady, run "arch"
[05:26] <Irishman2020_> cjae: just right click the icon and download it
[05:26] <Khrajin> Are there really 1174 users in this channel?
[05:26] <Irishman2020_> cjae: did that work?
[05:26] <danny3793> freeza: thats if he even has dual core to start with, if hes updating from dc to dc, he should have no problems there
[05:26] <macd> Khrajin, yes
[05:26] <Irishman2020_> Khrajin: probably alot of idle people though
[05:26] <peepsalot> should i chown my ~ggnupg/gpg.conf to root?
[05:26] <freeza> yeah
[05:26] <Khrajin> macd: =O
[05:26] <craigbass1976> macd, expected quoted string.  Forget it, I'm starting over.
[05:26] <Toma-> Khrajin: yep. alot of people idle tho
[05:26] <macd> craigbass1976, ohh, you got whitespace!
[05:26] <freeza> im talking if he was going from like single to dual
[05:26] <Khrajin> Lurkers... :) I'm one of them until I pipe up with a question.
[05:27] <vorbote> peepsalot: no, do make sure it is mode 600
[05:27] <rAstari> ultimateq: boot with a recovery cd or something like hiren's boot cd - then get a prompt, type fdisk /mbr
[05:27] <freeza> bbl
[05:27] <macd> craigbass1976, or if you want something more robust than bind, look@ pdns.
[05:27] <danny3793> freeza: yeah, im on an AMD Athlon 64 x2 4000+, and im using a 32bit standard 7.04 kernel, instead of the 64bit AMD specific kernel
[05:27] <Khrajin> freeza: l8
[05:27] <craigbass1976> macd, is that apt-able?
[05:27] <lontra> what is the package that provides the metacity window borders for the human theme in dapper?
[05:27] <macd> !pdns
[05:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pdns - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:27] <craigbass1976> macd, bind is the biggest wench

[05:28] <Catoptromancy> oh heh
[05:28] <Catoptromancy> bout to say
[05:28] <macd> craigbass1976, do 'apt-cache search pdns'  you'll see it.
[05:28] <Catoptromancy> try the ia64 version
[05:28] <berk> so I just installed Ubuntu feisty fawn couple days ago. I am loving it
[05:28] <rAstari> ultimateq: with your mbr fixed you can reinstall them.. Advisable to install windows first
[05:28] <steel_lady> catoptromancy, why?
[05:29] <danny3793> berk: same here, and i am loving it too :D
[05:29] <macd> craigbass1976, it also has a sql backend, so you can make domain changes on the fly, and I'll plug myself here http://sourceforge.net/projects/publicdnsadmin/  is a php frontend for managing zones. (Im the developer)
[05:29] <Catoptromancy> are totally sure you have 32?
[05:29] <craigbass1976> macd, got it already.  Thanks.  I was hoping to get tinydns up but had some issues with that as well
[05:29] <berk> my only problem is getting flash to work on firefox
[05:29] <peepsalot> vorbote how can i list file permissions in octal?
[05:29] <berk> but other than that I am pretty happy
[05:29] <SickOfWindows> hi guys. the text itstall is successful! Thank you all very much. Freedooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom! (say in the tune of Braveheart!)
[05:30] <scarter> danny3793: i'm on feisty amd64, you?
[05:30] <danny3793> berk: i have no problems with flash on my FF, i told it to download the plugin by itself and it worked just fine :S
[05:30] <greening> 
[05:30] <peepsalot> vorbot, well it is -rw------- which i think = 600
[05:30] <berk> I am on 64bit
[05:30] <danny3793> scarter: im on feisty 32bit standard, though i do have an amd 64bit CPU
[05:30] <ultimateq> rAstari, I have a fresh install of xp running now, since I was os-less before. I have reset my mbr already.
[05:30] <peepsalot> vorbote, ^^
[05:30] <SickOfWindows> after 2 monts of frusration, i finally got ubuntu on my computer.
[05:30] <craigbass1976> macd, well, I'll plug myself to then... openinvoice on sourceforge is a series of bash scripts with a OpenOffice frontend and a mysql backend that is a FIFO inventorying system.  Feel free to make the whole thing php! :)
[05:30] <SeveredCross> Anyone know if I can map the Windows key on my keyboard to open the Applications menu?
[05:30] <SickOfWindows> thank  you all
[05:30] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, I don't understand, what is it and how to check. I have intel centrino dual core processor
[05:30] <vorbote> peepsalot: ls -ln
[05:30] <danny3793> ahhh SickOfWindows, How is it going over there :)
[05:31] <scarter> danny3793: well, that shoots down my theory of amd64 being the culprit...
[05:31] <danny3793> scarter: what do you mean? lol, im having no probs :P
[05:31] <vorbote> peepsalot: ha! That only does u/gids. I dunno.... I memorized them a long time ago. Not difficult really.
[05:31] <macd> !jp | greening
[05:31] <ubotu> greening:  #ubuntu-jp  #kubuntu-jp

[05:31] <greening> test

[05:31] <Catoptromancy> 32 should... run
[05:31] <Catoptromancy> OI cant connect to the site
[05:31] <SeveredCross> Anyone with my Windows Key question?
[05:32] <danny3793> scarter: only problem i have is when Linux goes into sleep mode, but i just turned it off so now i dont gotta worry about it :D
[05:32] <SeveredCross> Hmm.
[05:32] <danny3793> SeveredCross: whats your questions?
[05:32] <Khrajin|3lbsligh> Is setting up remote desktop / vnc on Ubuntu fairly simple?
[05:32] <peepsalot> vorbote, ok.  so do you know why i would get this error that my gpg.conf has "unsafe ownership" ?
[05:32] <SeveredCross> Never mind heh.
[05:32] <SeveredCross> Found it.
[05:32] <rAstari> ultimateq: hhmm, I don't know buddy
[05:32] <danny3793> kk :P
[05:32] <SeveredCross> I was stupid not to check in Keyboard Shortcuts.
[05:32] <bootbat> I am trying to register as a registered linux user but the page does not open....
[05:32] <ultimateq> it's alright rAstari, I'm browsing some forums... No idea why it's acting funny =\
[05:33] <bootbat> Anyone knows of a different link?
[05:33] <peepsalot> vorbote, i am trying to run this command: sudo gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-key 6A423791
[05:33] <macd> Khrajin|3lbsligh, out of the box its about 3 clicks.
[05:33] <scarter> danny3793: must be a new feature in feisty?
[05:33] <danny3793> scarter: what must be a new feature? turning off sleep mode?
[05:33] <steel_lady> Catoptromancy, the site is occasionally having problems or b eing very nslow, I am conected. so you think I should dl another version? but I think that 32 should run, it looks it runs we just have to know which parameters to put running make
[05:33] <SeveredCross> Aww, I can't use the Super key as a modifier.
[05:33] <lontra> what is the package that provides the metacity window borders for the human theme in dapper?
[05:33] <Khrajin> macd: What about writing a script that finds the local modem's IP address and emails it to me every day?
[05:34] <Comrade-Sergei> whats a good program availble in the repos to convert wmv to mpeg??
[05:34] <vorbote> peepsalot: amd it tells you that your gp.conf file is unsafe? Try chmod 600 ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf
[05:34] <SeveredCross> Okay, one more question.
[05:34] <SeveredCross> Anyone know how to determine the weird keycodes in the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog?
[05:34] <macd> lontra, human-theme
[05:34] <SeveredCross> Like 0xed--what the hell does that map to?
[05:34] <macd> !human-theme | lontra
[05:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about human-theme - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:34] <macd> booo!
[05:34] <lontra> macd: i can't find it in dapper
[05:34] <danny3793> !metacity | lontra
[05:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about metacity - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:34] <danny3793> i tried, lol
[05:34] <scarter> danny3793: i could hibernate in 6.06LTS & 6.10 with no issues (never have been able to suspend), but with 7.04, returning from hibernation leaves my networking disable, requires a reboot to get it back.
[05:35] <macd> lontra, 'apt-cache search metacity | grep human'
[05:35] <vorbote> SeveredCross: Those weir keycodes are for the keys in multimedia kbds
[05:35] <macd> Khrajin, thats about 3 lines of bash ;P
[05:35] <Catoptromancy> hmmmm
[05:35] <greening> test
[05:35] <lontra> macd: i'm running debian and i'm trying to cherry pick the package so that i can use the blue variant of it ...
[05:35] <Comrade-Sergei> whats a good program availble in the repos to convert wmv to mpeg??
[05:35] <Catoptromancy> steel_lady, erase the folder, and put a fresh install of program
[05:35] <Catoptromancy> from tar
[05:35] <macd> lontra, you just said dapper?
[05:35] <Khrajin> macd: Could you point me in the directino of the code or an example?
[05:35] <Catoptromancy> the "./configure"
[05:36] <lontra> macd: yes i'm trying to get the dapper version for debian
[05:36] <danny3793> scarter: thats weird, atleast your computer isnt telling you it can no longer find your CPU, RAM, HDD, etc :P
[05:36] <lontra> macd: i found it ... thanks
[05:36] <peepsalot> vorbote, the permissions were already at 600.  http://pastebin.ca/490621

[05:37] <m1r> tnx again to all who helped
[05:37] <Comrade-Sergei> i need a program to convert wmv files to mpeg what will do this?
[05:37] <m1r> gn ppl and stay good
[05:38] <danny3793> scarter: lol, atleast my issue is only when it sleeps :P, why dont you just make it never go to sleep?
[05:38] <macd> Comrade-Sergei, there are websites that do that now.
[05:38] <danny3793> scarter: if you know your gonna be gone for awhile, why not just put it in hibernation till you get back :P
[05:38] <Khrajin> macd: Could you point me in the directino of the code or an example of the acquiring ip and mailing it to myself?
[05:39] <macd> Khrajin, give me a few minutes and I'll whip one up
[05:39] <Comrade-Sergei> macd like?
[05:39] <Khrajin> macd: <3
[05:39] <danny3793> By the way guys, i must say, Linux handles my Nvidia card/chipset MUCH better than Vista did :D
[05:39] <Comrade-Sergei> macd + a 256 k line isnt going to be all that fast
[05:39] <hoarycripple> which cd image should I use for intel xeon 5160?
[05:39] <Khrajin> danny3793: The only thing Vista is good for is a door-stop.

[05:40] <yagami> Hi, i am having trouble keeping my samba server 'alive'- if say the DHCP on the windows box goes down, then it stops.
[05:40] <yagami> is there any way to make it persistent?
[05:40] <macd> Comrade-Sergei, locally, you should read up on mencoder/ffmpeg.
[05:40] <Comrade-Sergei> oh yea
[05:40] <SickOfWindows> danny3793: doing well. thanks
[05:40] <yagami> yeah, by DHCP server, i am referring to ICS- havent much choice there, i share an internet connection with this windows box, you see.
[05:40] <scarter> danny3793: i do have it set that way (no suspend/sleep, never could get those to work), i just like being able to hibernate (on purpose) my notebook and pick up where i left off later... didn't think i would lose features when upgrading to feisty.
[05:40] <danny3793> SickOfWindows: no probs yet? :P
[05:41] <Khrajin> yagami: Have a script test that the windows box is up and if it is down have samba restart every minute until the box comes up maybe
[05:41] <SickOfWindows> danny3793: i had problems syncying a pda with winxp, i'll try syncing now
[05:41] <macd> Khrajin, what network interface do you want to grab the address from?
[05:42] <danny3793> scarter: thats very weird, did it start doing that in the beginning from when you first installed it?
[05:42] <Khrajin> macd: lets assume eth0
[05:42] <macd> k
[05:42] <yagami> Khrajin: woosh! that goes right over my head. i know OF bash scripts and daemons- but have no idea where to begin writing one- i may be able to write one if i can get my hands on a similar script...any further help?
[05:42] <Jack3_> IS theresuch a thing as a repair install?
[05:42] <danny3793> Krajin: Vista is the perfect peice of toilet paper :)
[05:42] <yagami> and thanks, Khrajin - sort of knew that this option was always available
[05:42] <Khrajin> danny3793: :P sounsd painful, but symbolically acceptable
[05:42] <xelados> I have a minor right-click issue in Firefox in feisty. After a while of running Firefox, I get two menus when I right-click on a chrome object like the address bar or an extension's icon.
[05:42] <macd> Khrajin, do you want it to only mail it if its changed?
[05:42] <Khrajin> yagami: No idea.. I was just thinking up something random
[05:42] <xelados> Is there any way to fix this little bug?
[05:43] <Khrajin> macd: Even better but not if it takes up too much of your time to make
[05:43] <konex> Does anyone know how can I unzip .rar files?
[05:43] <linuxnobb> hi
[05:43] <Khrajin> konex: man tar
[05:43] <m0u5e> konex: get rar support, search in applications add/remove rar
[05:43] <linuxnobb> why GNOME doesn't have a kewl project like KDE4??
[05:43] <linuxnobb> is gonna lag behind
[05:43] <scarter> danny3793: yep... if i know i'm not going to need the net when i resume next, i don't worry about it, but if i'm moving locations and need net access, i shutdown instead of hibernate. it's just a big pain.
[05:43] <m0u5e> although im pretty sure we get rar by default...
[05:43] <danny3793> Khrajin: xD, Even when my gfx card was on the restricted drivers, it ran better than on Vista, i wish i could use some programs like i can use on Windows, but thats way less than what Linux has given me so far :D
[05:44] <Irishman2020_> good night all
[05:44] <Khrajin> danny3793: I'm only on windows for a few reasons: 1 World of Warcraft 2: Progress Quest. Although I havn't tried PQ in Wine yet.
[05:44] <danny3793> scarter: too bad you can make it suspend and not hibernate
[05:44] <m0u5e> is there a way for gnome-irc to join multiple servers?
[05:44] <BrightLoudNoise> ack, i seem to have stumbled upon a variation of the initramfs issue, as i also have my drive configured using lvm
[05:44] <m0u5e> its so frustrating that i cant join multiple servers at the same time (or at least regular irc commands aren't working :/ )
[05:45] <scarter> danny3793: happens the same on both of my feisty machines (cpq v3000z & cpq r4012us), they worked fine under previous versions.
[05:45] <danny3793> Khrajin: I am using WoW perfectly with Cedega, im getting 60FPS inside of Stormwind :P
[05:45] <Khrajin> m0u5e: Multiple instances of IRc maybe?
[05:45] <Khrajin> danny3793: Don't you have to pay for Cedega?
[05:45] <m0u5e> Khrajin: but that's defeating the purpose :X
[05:45] <BrightLoudNoise> is mdadm required if you are simply using lvm on a single drive?
[05:45] <Khrajin> m0u5e: =) I tried.
[05:46] <danny3793> Khrajin: yes, but its $15 (3 month min. purchase) and then if you no longer pay for the sub. you dont get updates, but you still get to use the program ;)
[05:46] <m0u5e> Khrajin: thats a good idea though, i guess i do that if i get desperate ;-)
[05:46] <scarter> danny3793: never have been able to get any of my notebooks to suspend (dell: l400, c600, c640; cpq: r4012us, v2000z, v3000z), really bites.
[05:46] <m0u5e> danny3793: does WoW work with wine just as well?
[05:46] <Khrajin> danny3793: Free WoW on XP or 15$ for the same thing and not needing to reboot... Hmm..
[05:46] <danny3793> scarter: lemme see if they have posted anything like this on the forums
[05:46] <m0u5e> scarter: yeah, my dell 1150 does hibernate, but sometimes it hangs halfway through...
[05:46] <Vaske_Car> how to change desktop icon size?
[05:46] <Khrajin> I dislike hibernating altogether. I don't trust it.
[05:46] <danny3793> Khrajin: id go with the $15 one time fee, just so i dont have to reboot ;)
[05:47] <Khrajin> danny3793: lol, I'm fine with rebooting for now. We'll see in a few weeks as I transition to Kubuntu nearly 100%
[05:47] <danny3793> m0u5e: Wine is an emulator, and i guess Cedega isnt, but i do know Cedega runs WoW better than Wine, and provides much more compatibility for games than Wine :P
[05:47] <m0u5e> danny9793/Khrajin: well WoW isn't exactly free..
[05:47] <Khrajin> danny3793: I have an ATI Radeon 1400 Mobility and Fiesty isn't <3ing it.
[05:47] <m0u5e> danny3793: actually wine stands for WINE IS NOT an EMULATOR
[05:48] <zabin> hey
[05:48] <macd> Khrajin, http://pastie.caboo.se/61954  that should work
[05:48] <m0u5e> :/
[05:48] <danny3793> Khrajin: ahhh, ATI :S, that sucks lol
[05:48] <macd> its pretty simple, you should be able to edit what you see fit
[05:48] <konex> another question... i had 256mb of memorie, and  i got about 8mb of free memorie, then i put more 256mb and now i'm with 512mb ram, but i still get 8mb of free ram. what's that?
[05:48] <zabin> for some reason i have to reinstall my nvidia drivers every time i restart my computer
[05:48] <scarter> m0u5e: i've had that happen before, but not recently, suspend just locks the machines and i have to power-down
[05:48] <danny3793> m0u5e: ohhh, glad that is cleared up :)
[05:48] <Vaske_Car> how to resize desktop icons?
[05:48] <Khrajin> I like ATI better than nvidia. :D
[05:49] <Khrajin> but that's personal pref.
[05:49] <zabin> has anyone had a problem were they have to reinstall there nvidia drivers each time they restart?
[05:49] <danny3793> scarter: your on an AMD64 bit ubuntu fiesty right?
[05:49] <scarter> danny3793: correct
[05:49] <danny3793> kk
[05:49] <macd> Khrajin, get that?
[05:49] <zabin> !ask | zabin
[05:49] <Khrajin> macd: =o amazing.
[05:49] <Khrajin> macd: Do I only have to input my email addy?
[05:49] <m0u5e> AMD has horrible support.
[05:49] <macd> Khrajin, yep, and make sure that runs as root.
[05:50] <m0u5e> Nvidia at least is more responsible and responsive IMO
[05:50] <Khrajin> macd: So do I just have it cron as sudo?
[05:50] <macd> Khrajin, yeah roots crontab
[05:50] <danny3793> m0u5e: so far i love my AMD more than my Intel, multi-tasking ftw :P
[05:50] <zabin> m0u5e: do you have an nvidia card?
[05:50] <macd> Khrajin, also you might have to verify the path on mail
[05:50] <scarter> m0u5e: what makes you say that? are you talking amd/ati video or amd cpu?
[05:50] <m0u5e> zabin: lol no, this computer has a intel 855GM
[05:50] <Khrajin> macd: What does that entail?
[05:50] <m0u5e> my other computer has a nvidia though
[05:50] <zabin> gateway?
[05:51] <m0u5e> i just dont like the new catalyst control center
[05:51] <m0u5e> its buggy as hell, and sucks up system resources
[05:51] <konex> how can i unzip .rar files?
[05:51] <m0u5e> oh wait
[05:51] <peepsalot> so i received a defective motherboard today :,(
[05:51] <peepsalot> at least i think it's the mobo
[05:51] <m0u5e> s**t did i say amd?
[05:51] <m0u5e> i meant ati :X
[05:51] <TaylorT1293> konex: technically, winRar, but 7-zip should do it too
[05:51] <m0u5e> haha 6_6;
[05:51] <danny3793> scarter: you do have an nVidia card right?
[05:51] <konex> TaylorT1293: : can i use it on Linux?
[05:52] <TaylorT1293> konex: 7-zip? I'm not sure, let me check
[05:52] <m0u5e> konex:  you can unzip rar files, using 7zip
[05:52] <Khrajin> ;_; 89% dl rate dropped to 26kB/s soo close...
[05:52] <m0u5e> konex: if you *really want, i guess you can WINE winrar?
[05:52] <lineman60> what is the default path for python in ubuntu? /user/local/python is a no go
[05:52] <scarter> danny3793: i'm on the r4012us with an ati radeon x200m, the other (v3000z) has an nvidia go6150
[05:52] <konex> m0u5e:  but is it a linux program?
[05:52] <danny3793> i trully am disliking WINE, as it makes the text small on some apps Lol
[05:53] <konex> wine?? o0' better i search more
[05:53] <m0u5e> konex: there is a 7zip version for linux... winrar is not linux
[05:53] <konex> m0u5e:  :O thx
[05:53] <m0u5e> konex: i dont recommend winrar simply because its shareware :)
[05:53] <ubuntubeginz> danny3793: can try crossover...
[05:53] <callidusfox> If someone uses rsync for backups please talk to me, I have a simple but important question
[05:53] <danny3793> scarter: try disabling your restricted driver for you gfx card, then go to hibernate and see if it does it still
[05:53] <danny3793> ubuntubeginz: crossover?
[05:54] <m0u5e> danny3793: wine takes getting used to, but it *is* still in development..., also you try playing around with the settings to better suit you
[05:54] <AngryElf> my panels have frozen, and i'm watching a movie so i dont want to log in again -- this makes me sad :(
[05:54] <macd> Khrajin, actually I messed up, let me edit it and then you can refresh it
[05:54] <Khrajin> macd: What does that entail, verifying email path.
[05:54] <Khrajin> macd: np
[05:54] <scarter> danny3793: didn't think about that... i'll try that and see if it makes any diff. i was thinking about trying envy to get the latest ati drivers and maybe install beryl, any comments?
[05:54] <m0u5e> anyone know how to get a linksys WPC54G* (PCMCIA) working without using ndiswrapper?
[05:55] <lineman60> where are the local varables ?
[05:55] <scarter> m0u5e: what's the chipset in the card?
[05:55] <ubuntubeginz> danny3793: it is kind of production version of Wine... http://www.codeweavers.com/products/download_trial_linux/ ...I use it to install my windows software... but it is 30-day onli.. :(
[05:55] <danny3793> scarter: oooohhhh boy, if your gonna do envy, dont let it decide the version for you, try manual first, envy messed up my nvidia drivers and i had to reconfigure 10 times before i figured out that i had to set the gfx card as nv and not nvidia so i could get back on
[05:55] <m0u5e> its a PCMCIA wireless-G card :X
[05:55] <SickOfWindows> how come Opera browser is not in Add/Remove?
[05:55] <konex> m0u5e: should i download debian 7zip?
[05:55] <danny3793> ubuntubeginz: i may have to wait awhile on that, i just payed $15 for cedega :P
[05:56] <Hashslinger> is there a way to get my 8800gtx to work under ubuntu??? I have been tryin to get it to work for the last two weeks and nothing good has come of it
[05:56] <danny3793> SickOfWindows: how did you install Opera? Linux natice?
[05:56] <ubuntubeginz> danny3793: cedega is onli for games rite
[05:56] <m0u5e> konex: there should be a 7zip in your app database... just go to Applications Add/Remove programs for gnome
[05:56] <danny3793> native*, ubuntubeginz: yep, cedega is for gaming only, and might i say, it does a damn good job :P
[05:56] <bullgard4> Does my Laptopcomputer or my battery have an Embedded Controller? My operating system Ubuntu 7.04 loads automatically the module i2c_ec. How to proceed to answer this question?
[05:57] <scarter> m0u5e: after you plug it in, what does 'dmesg' say the chipset, owner, vendor id, model id is?
[05:57] <SickOfWindows> i'd like to add opera. how do you sugest?
[05:57] <m0u5e> ubuntubeginz: try Wine :)
[05:57] <konex> m0u5e:  i don't have this menu :O
[05:57] <ubuntubeginz> mou5e: yes tried it.. but cant install microsfot office..
[05:57] <danny3793> SickOfWindows: go to Opera.com, and download it for Linux, that should work for ya
[05:57] <m0u5e> konex: are you using kubuntu?
[05:58] <konex> m0u5e: : nopz
[05:58] <konex> ubuntu
[05:58] <Khrajin> danny3793: What other games have you tried on Cedega?
[05:58] <SickOfWindows> any jpilot users here? If so, how do i sync my new ubuntu system with new pda?
[05:58] <konex> m0u5e:  at least i hope so
[05:58] <ubuntubeginz> danny3793: does warcraft work on cedega
[05:58] <danny3793> Khrajin: just WoW xD, i may try a few others just to see how they handle, such as Civ4, C&C3, and maybe AoE: 3
[05:58] <m0u5e> scarter: hold on, im checking :P
[05:59] <Hashslinger> is there a way to get my 8800gtx to work under ubuntu??? I have been tryin to get it to work for the last two weeks and nothing good has come of it
[05:59] <callidusfox> If someone uses rsync for backups please talk to me, I have a simple but important question
[05:59] <Khrajin> danny3793: What server?
[05:59] <danny3793> ubuntubeginz: it should, they do have a big db of games, ill go look for you
[05:59] <danny3793> Khrajin: i play on a few, but my main is on Kul'Tiras
[05:59] <Khrajin> danny3793: I'm in Whisperwind.

[06:01] <konex> Khrajin: what game are you talking about?
[06:01] <Khrajin> danny3793: Yeah not many can take me down around my level. I have out DPSed most guys +5 levels above me
[06:01] <m0u5e> konex: oh? sorry hold on :D

[06:01] <Khrajin> macd: reviewing
[06:01] <Hashslinger> any one know how to get 8800gtx to work with linux
[06:01] <konex> ahhh

[06:01] <macd> !nvidia | Hashslinger

[06:02] <Toma-> How can you list all installed packages in the terminal?
[06:03] <crimsun> dpkg -l
[06:03] <Khrajin> toma-: Aptitude
[06:03] <m0u5e> scarter: yeah i tried that too
[06:03] <macd> Toma-, you dont want to
[06:03] <m0u5e> scarter: the card doesnt even exist :X
[06:03] <Arodon> hey quick newbie question - I have a directory with a bunch of .rar files and want to extract each of them, is there a nice command form or a script to do that?
[06:03] <danny3793> ubuntubeginz: cedega should support it, it does have some problems in multiplayer, but it says there seem to be no problems with installing or patching it
[06:03] <Toma-> thanks again crimsun  :)
[06:03] <m0u5e> konex: are you using kubuntu or ubuntu?
[06:03] <Toma-> macd: o rly?

[06:03] <Toma-> I was bashing away at apt-cache and apt-get
[06:03] <Toma-> macd: im re-mastering a live cd. i need it :)
[06:03] <konex> m0u5e: ubuntu
[06:03] <neztiti> pls source.list 4 ubuntu610
[06:03] <Khrajin> So, are there small changes that developers address in 7.04 that they change but leave as 7.04?
[06:04] <ubuntubeginz> danny3793: maybe will get trial version and try it out... thanks man.. :)
[06:04] <macd> Toma-, werd
[06:04] <m0u5e> konex: okay, go to applications, go all the way to the bottom. there should be a ADD/REMOVE Programs
[06:04] <macd> Khrajin, mostly bug fixes, security issues.
[06:04] <neztiti> i have error there
[06:04] <ori> what games actually run properly on ubuntu?
[06:04] <konex> m0u5e:  hehe a second...
[06:04] <elektronisch> nice distro guys.
[06:04] <danny3793> ubuntubeginz: i dont know if there is a trial version, but no problem :), www.transgaming.org is their main website
[06:04] <scarter> m0u5e: take a look at the bottom of the pccard and look for a model, rev, firmware, etc... also did 'lspci' give you any bracketed [nnnn:nnnn]  next to the unknown device?
[06:05] <Khrajin> macd: Same error.... New iso.
[06:05] <Lounge> what's a good widget tool kit for ubuntu?
[06:05] <Khrajin> http://mirrors.gigenet.com/ubuntu/kubuntu/feisty/
[06:05] <WindowLess> hi guys, i'm trying to sync my pda onto my new ubuntu. My PDA has an error message.Title: Hotsync Problem. Message: Unable to initiate HotSync operation because the serial port is in use by another application
[06:05] <m0u5e> scarter: no, whats weird is that it doesnt give me *anything
[06:05] <WindowLess> How come it says that my serial port (It's really a USB port) is being used
[06:06] <castro> hi, I'm trying to do a partial upgrade and I keep getting an error that some packages can't be authenitcated, am I doing something wrong?
[06:06] <WindowLess> how can i fix this problem?
[06:06] <macd> Khrajin, and this is the livecd? or the alternate install cd?
[06:06] <Khrajin> macd: Live
[06:06] <konex> m0u5e: no menu :p.. i'll see search about it. But a question, is kubuntu better then ubuntu?
[06:06] <scarter> m0u5e: do other pccards work in this machine?
[06:06] <macd> Khrajin, are you using some exotic raid controller?
[06:06] <m0u5e> scarter: its a WPC54GS v.2 Linksys PMCIA Notebook Adapter
[06:06] <m0u5e> scarter: this is the only one on me, haven't tried others :(
[06:06] <neztiti> guys any help???
[06:06] <Khrajin> macd: I think so. Adapptec AIC-7896
[06:07] <neztiti> again pls source.list 4 ubuntu610
[06:07] <neztiti> edgy
[06:07] <macd> thats pretty run of the mill, shouldnt be a problem
[06:07] <callidusfox> If someone uses rsync for backups please talk to me, I have a simple but important question
[06:07] <m0u5e> konex: thats an interesting question... i personally haven't tried kubuntu enough to really say which one *I like better... but initially I liked gnome better
[06:07] <neztiti> or command 2 fix the problems
[06:07] <ori>  danny3793, you have to pay for this?
[06:07] <m0u5e> konex: its a widely disputed topic... i recommend just getting a live cd and playing around with the two
[06:07] <konex> m0u5e: hum, but then why are u in "ubuntu" channel?
[06:07] <danny3793> ori: have to pay for what, cedega?
[06:07] <macd> Khrajin, one sec, let me see if the manual workaround is still in my buffer
[06:07] <m0u5e> konex: i use ubuntu :)
[06:07] <konex> m0u5e: yeah.. the best solution
[06:08] <ori> danny3793: yea
[06:08] <Khrajin> macd: ok
[06:08] <faar> alguem sabe configurar um servirdor jabber?
[06:08] <konex> m0u5e: ;O but whats the difference?
[06:08] <shayan> Testing 1,2,3, just got IRSSI
[06:08] <m0u5e> konex: one uses the GNOME desktop environment, and the other uses KDE
[06:08] <m0u5e> konex: beyond that, they're at the core they're pretty much the same
[06:08] <danny3793> ori: yeah, its a $15 ( 3 month min. purchase ), of which is an actual subscription, but you can end the subscription and still keep your program/account and still use it to play games, you just no longer get updates after you cancel the subscription
[06:08] <m0u5e> konex: *at the core (oops)
[06:08] <Arodon> hey quick newbie question - I have a directory with a bunch of .rar files and want to extract each of them, is there a nice command form or a script to do that?
[06:09] <konex> m0u5e:  at the core? whats that? sorry
[06:09] <ori> danny3793: does it actually work well?
[06:09] <konex> m0u5e:  there's a long  i dont practice my english
[06:09] <danny3793> ori: if they come out with an update, and you want to get it but have canceled your subscription, then you have to make another $15 purchase
[06:09] <m0u5e> konex: hehe no i repeated "they're at" so i was just clarifying :D
[06:09] <m0u5e> konex: wait, your using ubuntu feisty right?
[06:09] <shayan> Hello guys, does anyone know how to register to ubuntu IRC
[06:09] <ori> danny3793: do the games actually work like the should though? is it just a simple installation or is there a lot of hassle?
[06:10] <konex> huhuhu
[06:10] <danny3793> ori: for me, yes it has, and ive heard alot of good things about it, if you want to make sure it works with the game you want to play then you can visit http://cedega.com/gamesdb/search.mhtml and search for the game you want to play
[06:10] <macd> Khrajin, what error do you get before the job control line?
[06:10] <konex> m0u5e:  second..
[06:10] <m0u5e> Arodon: if there are pictures in them, just comix reader
[06:10] <konex> m0u5e:  what's feisty?
[06:10] <ori> danny3793: ok thanks
[06:10] <Khrajin> macd: Checking... I've been rebooting trying other things while I wait.
[06:10] <Arodon> no, not pics, they need to be actually extracted
[06:10] <m0u5e> konex: its the newest ubuntu release
[06:11] <danny3793> ori: well for me, i wanted to hassle with it to get the most out of it and my GPU, but the most i had to do was copy the information from both the regular WoW CDs and TBC CDs to a folder on my computer, and i just pointed cedega to the Installer.exe files, mounted them, and let it install them
[06:11] <konex> m0u5e:  ahh!! yes
[06:11] <BrightLoudNoise> could someone answer my question about lvm and mdadm?
[06:11] <macd> Khrajin, np, I'll be back in a min myself
[06:11] <|Assassin`|> can someone help me?
[06:11] <danny3793> ori: but there is one problem, sometimes if your installing a game that plays sound, you have to play sound, such as a song, so it does not crash the installer
[06:11] <m0u5e> konex: okay thats weird... you should have a Add/Remove thing at the bottom of your Applications
[06:11] <Arodon> I'm just looking for some kind of "wildcard" command or script for running a command on *.rar
[06:11] <castro> hi, i'm having trouble with an upgrade if anyone can help
[06:11] <Khrajin> I think I'm gonna name my server orly
[06:11] <konex> m0u5e: version 2.18.1
[06:12] <danny3793> ori: i know it sounds weird, but i had to do that to get WoW to install on my machine with cedega, so if your experiencing weird instant installer crashes, try playing some music while installing it and see if that helps
[06:12] <konex> m0u5e:  i dunno if i have all sources in ubuntu
[06:12] <m0u5e> konex: 2.18.1 ...  wait of what?
[06:12] <|Assassin`|> i have catalyst controll center version .9 can someone help me upgrade please?
[06:12] <ori> danny3793: hmm, good to know
[06:12] <konex> m0u5e:  is it like windows that we can block some sources to some users?
[06:13] <ori> danny3793: do you know anything about getting ati drivers to work with ubuntu?
[06:13] <konex> m0u5e: ah! gnome version
[06:13] <m0u5e> konex: okay, just try going into the terminal window and typing apt-get Xarchiver
[06:13] <Khrajin> macd: /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[06:13] <konex> ok
[06:13] <m0u5e> konex: linux is more secure than windows, what do you mean block sources to users?
[06:13] <danny3793> ori: nope, i know its tougher than nVidia drivers, but i myself do not have an ATI, so i only had to fuss with nVidia, although, Envy is a nice program if it does not mess up your computer lol....try using the Manual ATI install that envy offers, it may be better for you than letting it automatically choose
[06:14] <konex> m0u5e:  for example.. in windows you have the admin user, in linux does it happens too?
[06:14] <m0u5e> konex: ahh! your talking about sudo
[06:14] <m0u5e> konex: sudo is the admin user, essentially
[06:14] <FunnyLookinHat> (root technically is)
[06:14] <konex> m0u5e: ahh like root?
[06:14] <Lounge> without having be root
[06:14] <jrattner1> Question: Where can I find information setting up my broadcom BCM4318 with Ubuntu 7.04?  The wiki is outdated and only has information for 6.10
[06:14] <mewconsulting> I'm trying to install Netbeans 6 on Ubuntu 7.04. I'm getting an error message that JDK 6 or JDK 5 is required, I've installed both and set the default java to Sun Java 6 but I keep getting an error message that the JDK was not found on this computer. Can any help?
[06:14] <m0u5e> konex: yeah, root is the admin, sudo allows you to use root privs
[06:14] <jad> !shockwave
[06:14] <ubotu> Shockwave is currently only available for Windows. To run it under !Wine, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Shockwave
[06:14] <Khrajin> sudo = one time use as admin basically
[06:14] <FunnyLookinHat> !broadcom
[06:15] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[06:15] <konex> i got it
[06:15] <m0u5e> funnylookinhat: :D
[06:15] <jrattner1> FunnyLookinHat, did you notice how i set they were outdated
[06:15] <FunnyLookinHat> jrattner1, is that link outdated?
[06:15] <konex> i wrote  apt-get Xarchiver and i got this msg.. let me translate
[06:15] <FunnyLookinHat> jrattner1, I wasn't sure if that was the one you had found, one sec, I'll pull something up for you
[06:15] <m0u5e> konex: but to your earlier question, Xarchiver also extracts *.rar files, so i recommend you get that if you want a graphical interface
[06:16] <m0u5e> konex: the rest of the stuff can be mostly read on www.ubuntu.com
[06:16] <chamunks> I want to mount /dev/sda1  so i can make a backup of my /home/ how do i do that just for one session it doesent have to mount at boot or anything
[06:16] <konex> m0u5e: is it a program?
[06:16] <m0u5e> konex: yes
[06:16] <FunnyLookinHat> jrattner1, Try this:   http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102&highlight=bcm4318+feisty

[06:16] <Khrajin> macd: /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[06:17] <m0u5e> konex: hold on. wait its just "XArchive" you need not the archiver
[06:17] <konex> E: Operation Xarchive invalid

[06:17] <mewconsulting> I'm trying to install Netbeans 6 on Ubuntu 7.04. I'm getting an error message that JDK 6 or JDK 5 is required, I've installed both and set the default java to Sun Java 6 but I keep getting an error message that the JDK was not found on this computer. Can any help?

[06:18] <Khrajin> Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
[06:18] <chamunks> I cant recall the command to do that
[06:18] <jrattner1> FunnyLookinHat, thanks
[06:18] <macd> Khrajin, and thats it? there wasnt anything on crtl + alt + f1 either right?
[06:18] <SDark> hi
[06:18] <Toma-> chamunks: just use recovery mode?
[06:18] <Khrajin> Alt-ctrl-R1 is still 'Loading, please wait...'
[06:18] <FunnyLookinHat> jrattner1, if that doesn't help, try searching ubuntuforums.org for your card model and "feisty" and you should come up with some good tutorials
[06:18] <konex> m0u5e: btw.. where can i learn about ubuntu?
[06:18] <Toma-> chamunks: ir is /dev/sda1 you rroot filesystem?
[06:19] <SDark> does the liveCD of ubuntu or kubuntu includes k3b and cdrtools or cdrkit?
[06:19] <m0u5e> konex: http://www.ubuntu.com
[06:19] <konex> i'm damm new in this
[06:19] <chamunks> Toma-, im not recovering anything im just trying to backup /home/ which so happens to be my old raid array im putting it all onto a bigger sata drive
[06:19] <Khrajin> macd: And the whole '/bin/sh...' is under the enter 'help' etc
[06:19] <m0u5e> SDark: i know that ubuntu doesn't... b ut you can just download it using synaptic
[06:19] <ori> any ideas on installing ATI drivers?
[06:19] <konex> m0u5e: huhu nice! more english for me :D ty
[06:19] <chamunks> Toma-, its /dev/sda1 its going to be my new /home when i install everything again
[06:19] <SDark> m0u5e: right in the liveCD?
[06:19] <Toma-> chamunks: the recover console will only mount the root filesystem, iirc. you can do what you like form there..
[06:20] <m0u5e> konex: you can always google it and add your language before it :)
[06:20] <konex> m0u5e:  i've downloaded xarchiver-0.4.6 and now?
[06:20] <corpis> to get sound to work, do you generally have to run a config?
[06:20] <konex> m0u5e: nah, it'll be good for me, there's a long time i dont speak in English
[06:20] <danny3793> does anyone know of a good FTP program other than gFTP, because i cant stand gFTP
[06:20] <m0u5e> konex: are you using synaptic konex? or are you trying to do it manually :X
[06:20] <konex> or write :D
[06:20] <SDark> does the liveCD also supports "copy to RAM" to allow the ejection of the disk and free the drive?
[06:20] <chamunks> Toma-, im not trying to just mount the root filesystem im running a fully functional 64 bit os its just i want to mount that as a folder in my fs to copy some files to it
[06:20] <m0u5e> konex: i recommend you use add/remove or synaptic
[06:21] <corpis> this is the 3rd time ive had kubuntu, had an older version and my sound was picked up, what could be stoping it now?
[06:21] <konex> m0u5e: i went to a website and downloaded the program
[06:21] <Toma-> ahh, i dont know then sorry
[06:21] <konex> 0o'

[06:21] <macd> Khrajin, load a shell form busybox and type dmesg
[06:21] <danny3793> poor m0u5e
[06:22] <m0u5e> danny3793: i wanted to help :(
[06:22] <m0u5e> im actually pretty new to ubuntu myself, so i try to help others with the stuff i know :(

[06:22] <patbam> hi, has anyone else had trouble with a usb perpheral (speicifically , a harddrive, which i believe is ntfs) oin upgrading to feisty?
[06:22] <Khrajin> macd: how do I load a shell?
[06:23] <m0u5e> danny3793: add/remove and synaptic is your friend :)
[06:23] <DanaG> Recently, my ability to suspend and resume broke.
[06:23] <danny3793> m0u5e: same here, just got ubuntu installed 3 days ago, but i did some research before actually installing it, a good month or so of learning about linux
[06:23] <FunnyLookinHat> patbam, well, you should be able to read the drive fine, but you won't be able to write to it unless you use the ntfs-3g driver
[06:23] <macd> when you type help, it should give an option for a shell
[06:23] <DanaG> It used to work properly, but now it hangs with a black screen on resume.
[06:23] <macd> like /bin/sh
[06:23] <veneno> hi there
[06:23] <danny3793> ohhhh cmon!!! what kinda help is that! LOL, gFTP seriously does not like me, i hate it :(
[06:23] <veneno> some chanel in spanish?
[06:23] <m0u5e> danny3793: my intial search comes up with gFTP, try that? :)
[06:23] <danny3793> brb
[06:23] <patbam> FunnyLookinHat: thanks. i was able to read & wirte to it under dapper. i did a dapper->edgy->feisty upgrade. now, it sees the drive, but none of the contents
[06:23] <macd> Khrajin, or just type 'dmesg' It's been to long for me to remember tbh
[06:24] <`sam`> veneno, #ubuntu-es

[06:24] <veneno> thx

[06:24] <Sam_> hey everyone
[06:24] <macd> Khrajin, what options does it give you under help?
[06:24] <Khrajin> macd: /bin/sh can't access tty; job control turned off

[06:25] <patbam> any other thoughts, FunnyLookinHat?
[06:25] <sarah_cgwd> SurfnKind: in this server?
[06:25] <m0u5e> scarter: yeah, that shows up | i thought that was just my broadcom card being stupid
[06:25] <Sam_> so is there anything anyone can do, is anyone good with that kind of stuff, its a joomla problem more of
[06:25] <m0u5e> scarter: cause i do have broadcom ethernet, and i have a place to put in a internal WiFi card (but its not there)
[06:26] <macd> Khrajin, no its ok, I think you might want to compile a list of your hardware and post a bug to https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug/  containing your hardware list, its possible there is still a bug within the kernel pata driver.
[06:26] <FunnyLookinHat> patbam, unfortunately no...  I would try installing the ntfs-3g package again and then making sure that there is no reference to the drive in your /etc/fstab file....  if there is I'd remove it and see if plug-and-play works out.
[06:26] <Sam_> basically wwhat is hapeneing, is when i set my life site to an external ip (dns) i cannot access the site, my friends can though. When i set it to an internal ip, then i can acess but no one else can.  And  yes, i have tried pinging my ip, and im fine
[06:26] <Khrajin> macd: =( i want it to work
[06:26] <corpis> there a way to check WHY my sound card isnt working? it detects it, I see it, but still have no sound. USB sound card.
[06:26] <mon^rch> in nautilus how can I refresh the thumbnail cache of a folder containing videos? :/
[06:27] <FunnyLookinHat> patbam, last resort of course is to backup your data and do a fresh feisty install..  but that really shouldn't be necessary
[06:27] <scarter> m0u5e: ok, then you can follow the instructions for using the bcm43xx driver (same as i use), you'll use bcm43xx-fwcutter to extract the firmware files from the linksys driver...
[06:27] <patbam> FunnyLookinHat: thanks a lot
[06:27] <macd> Khrajin, yeah it would be nice if it did, you can also ask nicely in #ubuntu-devel
[06:27] <SDark> corpis: alsamixer and possibly unmute it?
[06:27] <Khrajin> macd: What does the tty error mean?
[06:27] <macd> Khrajin, but I didnt send you there
[06:27] <Sam_> anyone..................
[06:27] <patbam> FunnyLookinHat: i suppose i could read it onto a windows drive if need be
[06:27] <Khrajin> macd: And I *greatly* appreciate it
[06:27] <macd> Khrajin, thats a generic error for any kernel issues with hardware
[06:27] <corpis> it's not muted
[06:27] <corpis> and kmix is installed
[06:28] <macd> Khrajin, the kernel doesnt handle some hardware fialures elegantly, and now you've seen it in person ;)
[06:28] <|_ocke> hola

[06:30] <|_ocke> its the same vidcard, so that works great (plus i install new nvidia drivers all the time)
[06:30] <|_ocke> i need to have alsa redetect my card
[06:30] <macd> |_ocke, you need to determine your soundcard type, and load the modules for it.
[06:30] <rAstari> hello..Please help.. I upgraded to 7.04 with a beryl setup, now it wont boot? any ideas
[06:30] <Khrajin> macd: how long you been doing linux stuff?
[06:30] <|_ocke> but im having problems finding the instructions on the forums that dont involve crazy stuff that has nothing to do with this
[06:31] <macd> Khrajin, I dunno, 94 or so
[06:31] <Khrajin> macd: =o
[06:31] <crimsun> |_ocke: ..."redetect"?  It doesn't involve any redetection.  It's done automatically on boot.
[06:31] <|_ocke> its very similar to the old one, a via ac97, but on a different dma add im sure
[06:31] <scarter> m0u5e: the page you're looking for is -- ndiswrapper install = http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=197102, using the bcm43xx driver with broadcom firmware = http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=185174
[06:31] <macd> |_ocke, does it show up in lspci ? and are the appropriate modules loaded "lsmod"
[06:31] <|_ocke> where are the config files, or how do i have it do it automatically
[06:31] <|_ocke> without reinstalling some stuff
[06:32] <|_ocke> macd, it shows up in lspci
[06:32] <crimsun> |_ocke: ...it's done automatically on boot.  You don't need to do anything.  What's the real issue with your sound?
[06:32] <patbam> FunnyLookinHat: do you think i should apt-get remove  ntfs-3g  and then install it?
[06:32] <|_ocke> and yes
[06:32] <|_ocke> via 82xx is loaded
[06:32] <scarter> m0u5e: ndiswrapper adds another layer, however, it can also provide some additional features. i use bcm43xx with wpa, wpa2 (psk), wep128, and open, with no issues
[06:32] <|_ocke> its a VT8233/A/8235/8237 AC97 Audio Controller (rev 60)
[06:33] <corpis> i cant get my sound to work either |_ocke =(
[06:33] <crimsun> |_ocke: I know that much.  What's the real issue?  Is it inaudible?
[06:33] <crimsun> corpis: what's your audio issue?
[06:33] <|_ocke> the old one was also via 82xx, though slightly diff
[06:33] <|_ocke> crimsun, ye
[06:33] <|_ocke> s
[06:33] <corpis> it detects it, it's there
[06:33] <corpis> but no sound

[06:33] <|_ocke> no mute
[06:33] <m0u5e> scarter: ok
[06:33] <macd> |_ocke, did you verify the proper sound system under system -> preferences

[06:34] <|_ocke> this is the quickest response ive ever gotten in this channel, BTW

[06:35] <crimsun> macd: feel free to modify it, then.
[06:35] <|_ocke> via ac97 8237 shows up in sys->pref->sound
[06:35] <|_ocke> but no outpuy
[06:35] <macd> crimsun, and leave a trace of me, never ;P
[06:35] <|_ocke> im assuming the dma address is different from previous
[06:36] <crimsun> macd: then use tor and privoxy or something.
[06:36] <llama32> crimsun: actually, the first time i did the manual swapon it said it had corrupt resume data or something...
[06:36] <Toma-> Any engineers here? Is QCAD the best AutoCAD replacement?
[06:36] <|_ocke> i just migrated this HD and install from a celeron 933 system to a athlonxp3200+ 2.1ghz system
[06:36] <macd> |_ocke, dma is done on boot, its not a hard coded thing
[06:36] <crimsun> llama32: so swapoff -a, re-mkswap, then swapon -a
[06:36] <|_ocke> new mobo, onboard sound, proc, mem, same HD and inst, same vidcard
[06:36] <llama32> crimsun: thanks
[06:36] <|_ocke> everything else works flawlessly
[06:36] <r691175002> Hi

[06:37] <|_ocke> hang on working on it
[06:37] <|_ocke> i have lspci -v log too
[06:37] <patbam> is there something i need to do to make that mount happen (... hmm, question of my life...)
[06:37] <crimsun> |_ocke: don't bother.  Just run that script.  It tells me what I need to know.
[06:38] <r691175002> I have a problem with beryl, none of the windows have borders: http://img411.imageshack.us/img411/9216/screenshotqa2.png

[06:50] <Dave-Kubuntu> Macd, not everytime but it happens not JUST with glxgears... it's happening with Eclispe apps too... everything is slow
[06:50] <macd> Khrajin, honestly, I dont know, I think it has nothing todo with the drives, I think its some combintation of hardware making it choke
[06:51] <Khrajin> macd: Ok. :) Ty
[06:51] <echostorm> test
[06:51] <FlashNet2> or is it sock?
[06:51] <crimsun> corpis: what does ``amixer -c0'' give you?  (pastebin)
[06:51] <|_ocke> i run my own server :P
[06:51] <macd> Dave-Kubuntu, by chance did you change your hostname in /etc/hosts and not in /etc/hostname ?
[06:51] <Dave-Kubuntu> not at all

[06:51] <ubotu> echostorm: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:51] <echostorm> there we go
[06:52] <|_ocke> id much rather host my own shit than post it on some service
[06:52] <macd> Dave-Kubuntu, not really sure then
[06:52] <echostorm> someone can read this?
[06:52] <|_ocke> mostly cause it makes me feel useful
[06:52] <joe7d6> can someone help me on this? http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-fix-nvidia-acceleration-in-feisty-nvidia-8800-and-legacy-users.html my card doesnt fall into that category. to my knowledge only 'nvidia' module is loaded on my system. so i can ignore this right?
[06:52] <Dave-Kubuntu> well all 3d things are slow
[06:52] <|_ocke> taco?
[06:52] <echostorm> yay!
[06:52] <|_ocke> heh
[06:52] <crimsun> |_ocke: I can't access your server; it's firewalled from my end.  That's why I ask people to use http://pastebin.ca
[06:53] <macd> Dave-Kubuntu, do you have Section "DRI"   Mode 0666 EndSection in your /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:53] <|_ocke> it shouldnt be, i have it opened up to the world
[06:53] <crimsun> |_ocke: it's firewalled from  /my/  end.  I'm at work.

[06:54] <Dave-Kubuntu> Macd: yes and composte is set to 0 and the screen is aticonfig-(blah-blah)
[06:54] <echostorm> I might even consider daily build if neccesary.
[06:54] <crimsun> echostorm: use one of the mirrors.
[06:54] <macd> Dave-Kubuntu, Im out of ideas
[06:55] <crimsun> |_ocke: seriously, this will move a lot faster if you just paste it onto some other pastebin.
[06:55] <scarter> danny3793: disabled the restricted ati drivers, no joy. same issue, wireless not functional after resuming from hibernation.
[06:55] <crimsun> [or get someone who's not firewalled to do it for you.] 
[06:55] <corpis> crimsun: , i get the same thing sir
[06:55] <macd> Dave-Kubuntu, does fgl_glxgears or fglrxgears do the same?
[06:55] <crimsun> corpis: from ``amixer -c0'' ?
[06:55] <corpis> yes
[06:55] <corpis> putting it in JUST like that
[06:56] <echostorm> crimsum... the second option will be my choic, which is why i came here... was hoping for a direct link
[06:56] <bullgard4> Does my Laptopcomputer or my battery have an Embedded Controller? My operating system Ubuntu 7.04 loads automatically the module i2c_ec. How to proceed to answer this question?

[06:57] <ori> how do I private message myself?
[06:57] <pyrohotdog> I have synergy setup between my Ubuntu and Debian box, and it works fine, but it doesn't sync my screensavers? Do I have to add something to the .conf file?

[06:58] <Khrajin> ori: :x sry
[06:58] <corpis> http://pastebin.ca/490688
[06:58] <macd> Dave-Kubuntu, you can also try adding the following to /etc/fstab 'tmpfs /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0' and add in the Section DRI in /etc/X11/xorg.conf add 'group 0' then restart.
[06:58] <ori> Khrajin: still nothing
[06:58] <Khrajin> ori: :x = emoticon
[06:58] <Ademan> hey whats the name of that gtk app that shows all of the standard widgets so you can view your theme?
[06:59] <Khrajin> ./ori: /msg ori text

[07:13] <danny3793> scarter: i think i have found a fix for you
[07:13] <smtlaissezfaire> Is anyone else having the timeout problems with security.ubuntu.com? I can't get any packages through apt-get.
[07:13] <scarter> danny3793: yes?
[07:13] <|_ocke> gimme an aplay test command plz
[07:13] <|_ocke> same as before
[07:13] <scarter> danny3793: excellent... what did you locate?
[07:13] <jero872> ok ive installed the 8800 driver from console now what just restart or turn back on x11?
[07:14] <crimsun> |_ocke: aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav
[07:14] <danny3793> scarter: its on the forums but the person who posted about fixing it did not list how i think he means he used a method someone stated
[07:14] <hermes> is there any linux program/command i can use to test lan bandwidth?
[07:14] <|Assassin`|> how do i install an emerald theme
[07:14] <|Assassin`|> O_o
[07:14] <Yggdrasil> can somone help me with this ? W: GPG error: http://e17.dunnewind.net feisty Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 223020C2A7C6F0DF
[07:14] <xlinux_> which log guys?
[07:14] <|Assassin`|> im in emerald themer 0.2.1
[07:14] <danny3793> scarter: one method is to type "sudo /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManger restartP" into the terminal after you wake the computer up from hibernation
[07:14] <xlinux_> i would think the xorg log
[07:14] <echostorm> heh... ok screw you scarter I offered my help 5 minutes ago... could have said no at least. It was a 1 page post! geez
[07:14] <danny3793> scarter: that does not work for some though i notice, so lemme figure out method 2
[07:15] <deCon> I need help setting up Xubuntu on an ollld computer!
[07:15] <deCon> I need to know how to partition it specifically, for best performance
[07:15] <jero872> thanks guys it works great :)
[07:15] <|Assassin`|> how do i install an emerald theme  like for beryl
[07:15] <danny3793> scarter: supposedly if you "whitelist" the module, it will allow wireless to work after hibernation/suspend has been woken up
[07:15] <infernal_jesus>  deCon: all in one parition :P
[07:15] <infernal_jesus> deCon: so /boot and / :P
[07:15] <danny3793> scarter: im just not sure what white listing the module exactly means :S
[07:16] <deCon> infernal_jesus, its 6.8GB on a P2 400mhz possible 256mb ram...
[07:16] <danny3793> scarter: here is what one person posted, im sure your module may be different: "I added ipw3945 to MODULES_WHITELIST in /etc/default/acpi-support, restarted acpid and acpi-support, suspended, the light stayed on, when I restarted, wireless was back."
[07:16] <deCon> infernal_jesus, and i added another 5GB harddrive, but i dont think its detected yet...it only shows hda1 in bios install area
[07:16] <scarter> danny3793: i remember reading something about whitelist'ing, let me see if its in the same place as the blacklist file...
[07:16] <|Assassin`|> ok?
[07:16] <deCon> infernal_jesus, so how much do i want to make a /boot?
[07:16] <digital_funeral> what is the terminal command to delete a file/folder?
[07:17] <|Assassin`|> how did you get it
[07:17] <danny3793> scarter: it should be in the /etc/default/acpi-support listed above from the post i c/ped into my msg
[07:17] <deCon> digital_funeral, sudo rm /path/to/file/or/folder
[07:17] <bluefox83> ok, i can't get anything on ncb.com to play, and i want my Heroes hook up D:
[07:17] <xlinux_> the flashes would make me think xorg, but the fact that the system completely freezes makes me think system
[07:17] <infernal_jesus> deCon: not a lot, I think the install should make it automatically
[07:17] <digital_funeral> ty
[07:17] <scarter> danny3793: what's the link to the forum posting?
[07:17] <xlinux_> my logs dont seem to show the freeze
[07:17] <|Assassin`|> how do i install an emerald theme
[07:17] <echostorm> this is what annoys me. I have a bad feeling not only do i have a better pc than most the community; my pc is better than most the developers. that makes it hard to choose this os

[07:18] <echostorm> i just want things to work
[07:18] <deCon> infernal_jesus, well it needs me to partition, and its asking how much for the first % of the drive. 6.8GB, how much % do i make the boot?
[07:18] <scarter> echostorm: i didn't see your post, what was it that you said that i ignored and offended you over?
[07:18] <echostorm> or answers to make em work
[07:18] <joe7d6> i want to install the latest nvidia driver on feisty. what am i going to do? i think i need kernel source. anything else? oh i need to ditch the restricted driver first right? advice...
[07:18] <deCon> echostorm, what makes your computer so hot?
[07:18] <erfdain> How do I delete previous kernels?
[07:18] <xlinux_> anybody?
[07:18] <echostorm> \you didnt offend me scarter, i was just annoyed... did you get your answer
[07:19] <non|inear> does anyone know how i can check the ram allocatoin to my intel graphics card?  looked in xorg log file but confused by what it says there
[07:19] <infernal_jesus> deCon: just  a sec
[07:19] <deCon> erfdain, go to Synaptic under base and find the kernel modules called linux-........ and delete the ones you dont want
[07:19] <deCon> infernal_jesus, thanks
[07:19] <echostorm> decon , frankly nothing... thats why im trying to get ubuntu support.\
[07:19] <jero872> ok i restarted  my computer and i got an xserver error saying that the nvidia kernel was mismatched or something?
[07:19] <scarter> echostorm: still in progress... notebooks can be so troublesome when dealing with the little details.
[07:19] <danny3793> echostorm: why did you just contridict yourself?...first your computer is hot, then its not? lol
[07:19] <millinao> How would I pipe A's stdin to B and B's stdout to A?

 yes anybody ... :-)
[07:20] <xlinux_> wacky, know anything about video stuff?
[07:20] <deCon> echostorm, you said it was better...so whats the issue?
[07:20] <loco> hello, does anyone know how i can configure the extra two buttons on my trackball to pageup and pagedown
[07:20] <infernal_jesus> deCon: it just has to be the first partition
[07:21] <infernal_jesus> I'll tell you the size of mine
[07:21] <deCon> echostorm, specifically....? i have a really nice computer too, but most of it preconfigures
[07:21] <xlinux_> ive tried the forums and everything.. im actually thinking about trying Sabayon rather than keep Ubuntu, solely for the freezing
[07:21] <deCon> infernal_jesus, well how much does boot NEED? with an installation such as xubuntu?
[07:21] <echostorm> dcon let me scroll up to make sure im not stupid or mistyped what i was thinking
[07:21] <erfdain> so I want to keep the latest kernel.  the 2.6.17 is older than the 2.6.20 right?
[07:22] <Tarkus> hey, anyone know is this a good IDE for web development? (php, css, html)? http://www.aptana.org/

[07:22] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:22] <deCon> echostorm, i dont know what your problem is exactly, i jumped in when you said your pc was better than most developers
[07:22] <danny3793> scarter: do you know your module name for your network card?
[07:22] <infernal_jesus> deCon: it doesn't need a lot, 100mb is more than enough :P
[07:22] <deCon> echostorm, do you have a specific issue?
[07:22] <deCon> erfdain, yes
[07:22] <erfdain> thanks so much
[07:22] <danny3793> scarter: i believe you can get the name from your xorg.conf file, lemme make sure
[07:22] <echostorm> dcon actually a very specific one
[07:22] <deCon> infernal_jesus, oh sweet....and the rest is home?
[07:22] <eifzon> how do i create the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup ?
[07:22] <non|inear> how do i view the user list in xchat? has been annoying me for days :P
[07:23] <infernal_jesus> deCon, the rest is /
[07:23] <erfdain> I only have limited space for ubuntu right now so I'm tyring to keep it as cleen as I can until we move and I go hard core ubuntu
[07:23] <Greevous> eifzon: you can copy it through the terminal
[07:23] <infernal_jesus> deCon: but if you want you can make two separate partitions for / and  /home
[07:23] <danny3793> maybe not, lol, google time :P
[07:23] <Greevous> eifzon: cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /~
[07:23] <digital_k> hello all :)
[07:23] <Greevous> eifzon: etc...
[07:24] <ykphuah> anyone having problems with ipw3945 and dropped packets?
[07:24] <digital_funeral> for some reason i can't modify a bunch of files
[07:24] <eifzon> thx Greevous :}
[07:24] <Greevous> eifzon: no problem
 no, not very much, I tried a few programs and codecs ... what do you mean exactly ?
[07:24] <gregorovius> is kdar available in the ubuntu repos? I can't seem to find it
[07:24] <digital_k> is anyone here using ubuntu studio yet? if so, what do you think of it/
[07:24] <jero872> how do i have the changes to /etc/defaults/linux-restricted-modules i made in vim?
[07:24] <deCon> infernal_jesus, heres the problem, i'm not sure if the second drive i put in is showing...it didn't show two drives immeadiately, but i'm not used to the xubuntu install splash. should i make the whole remainder "/" and hope i can put the other drive as /home?
[07:24] <digital_k> im considering installing, but not sure
[07:24] <digital_funeral> when specifying the correct name and everything, it gives me a "no such file or directory"
[07:24] <loco> hello, does anyone know how i can configure the extra two buttons on my trackball to pageup and pagedown
[07:24] <deCon> infernal_jesus, i was hoping to improve performance by separating the swap to the other drive

[07:24] <kahrytan> I have a weird problem. My gnome-terminal won't let me type F. It brings up Gnome Terminal help. Somehow, the Help key got changed from F1 to F
[07:25] <danny3793> loco
[07:25] <infernal_jesus> deCon: how much RAM do you have?
[07:25] <xlinux_> wacky, im having this problem with having my screen flash black. After a while the system will totally freeze...
[07:25] <danny3793> loco: i have something that may help you a bit, i had to do the same thing
[07:25] <loco> danny3793: yes
[07:25] <danny3793> loco: PM me
[07:25] <infernal_jesus> deCon: well swap is a separate partition you create
[07:25] <deCon> infernal_jesus, i'm not sure...i frankensteined the box a couple days ago and didn't care to check, more than 128, but its old..so probably pc100 style
[07:25] <xlinux_> im using the 9755 binary from the Nvidia website
[07:25] <echostorm> dcon I run an msi k9n Diamon mobo with a 590 NVIDIA SLI chip... this runs an integrated audigy SE onboard chip (not common i know) .... im having distortion problems off a fresh build (volume too high = nasty) I also own an NVidia GEForve 790GTO whic is essentially a modded 7900GTX for discussion... im having serious problems with these 2 devices
[07:26] <wacky> do you use beryl or 3d-stuff?
[07:26] <deCon> infernal_jesus, right, but i heard if its on another disk, it can seek faster than having to switch between the / and /swap on the same physical drive
[07:26] <echostorm> dcon hey you asked took me awhile to type
[07:26] <scarter> danny3793: ok... i added 'bcm43xx' to the 'WHITELIST_MODULES' entry in 'acpi-support', i'll see if that makes a diff... be back soon.
[07:26] <deCon> echostorm, so what exactly are you trying to figure out?
[07:26] <danny3793> scarter: ok, best of luck :D
[07:26] <kahrytan> How do you run bin files?
[07:26] <deCon> echostorm, try "decon" when spelling, i didn't notice your last one
[07:27] <xlinux_> yes... it doesnt matter whether im playing a 3d game, using beryl, using composite effects, etc.. it will eventually freeze
[07:27] <infernal_jesus> deCon: I wouldn't really know about that. I know that reiser4 fs is faster than ext3
[07:27] <infernal_jesus> deCon: so you might want to try out reiser4
[07:27] <xlinux_> if I dont use 3d effects, than it will run forever
[07:27] <deCon> echostorm, have you installed the restricted drivers for your nvidia yet?
[07:27] <wacky> xlinux_: do you use mutt-client for mail?
[07:27] <danny3793> xlinux_: do you have an nVidia card?
[07:27] <Kaliree> I have an Feisty and an audigy 1 soundcard that isn't giving me sound in Ubuntu. I tried everything I could find in the forums, so I am hoping here can help, please?!
[07:27] <deCon> infernal_jesus, what makes it that way? that makes me mad, i should switch my box over now
[07:27] <xlinux_> danny3793, yes I do
[07:27] <infernal_jesus> deCon: but reiser4 is good for files, so you csna install your system on / as ext3, and make a /home partition reiser4
[07:27] <echostorm> decon of course , im actually getting ready to attempt go 3 with fiesty after the dvd loads
[07:28] <xlinux_> wacky, I use thunderbird mail
[07:28] <infernal_jesus> deCon: what makes what what way? :P
[07:28] <deCon> echostorm, interesting, so what exactly is it telling you?
[07:28] <locolbd> danny3793: where r u?
[07:28] <xlinux_> I have a geforce 7600
[07:28] <danny3793> xlinux_: restricted drivers for GPUs do not allow for 3D acceleration, that may be your down fall when using 3D apps
[07:28] <deCon> infernal_jesus, reiser4?
[07:28] <echostorm> decon I have to kill it every couple of days for work if things arent 80%
[07:28] <danny3793> loco: what do you mean, where am i
[07:28] <infernal_jesus> deCon: It's just faster, they tested it and it is
[07:28] <jero872> how do i save the linux-restricted-modules-common file after i edit it?
[07:28] <deCon> echostorm, hmm, what are the SPECIFIC problems?
[07:28] <infernal_jesus> just a sec
[07:28] <locolbd> danny3793: you are not responding to my PM
[07:29] <xlinux_> I use 3d acceleration all the time and it works.. it just eventually freezes
[07:29] <danny3793> loco: i did respond, asking how many buttons your mouse has :P
[07:29] <deCon> infernal_jesus, can i use it on my amazing box and still have swapping capabilities between my windows partition and ubuntu one?
[07:29] <danny3793> xlinux_: have you tried installing the actual drivers for your GPU?
[07:29] <xlinux_> I would imagine the drivers off of nvidias website allow for 3d accel
[07:29] <infernal_jesus> deCon: http://www.namesys.com/intbenchmarks/mongo/06.02.11.belka.crc/charts/comp.html
[07:29] <infernal_jesus> deCon: do you mean dual-boot?
[07:29] <danny3793> loco: we can talk in here since i am not recieving your PMs, How many buttons does your mouse have?
[07:29] <echostorm> decon the interesting thing about the video card is... if i do everything by the book we have things finer but...
[07:29] <xlinux_> According to the nvidia website, my video card uses the 9755 nvidia driver
[07:30] <locolbd> danny3793: didnt get it
[07:30] <danny3793> xlinux_: if you want to install the easy way, i would try envy, and just do a manual install and select the version you want to use
[07:30] <Kaliree> Hi, can anyone help me with a sound card issue in Feisty?
[07:30] <locolbd> danny3793:  my trackball has 4 buttons then the ba
[07:30] <xlinux_> Envy never works
[07:30] <locolbd> kaliree: what is the issue
[07:30] <wacky> sorry - i fear i can't help you by 3d-stuff ...
[07:30] <deCon> infernal_jesus, yes...i dual boot, but i like being able to swap files back and forth from both systems, and i think reiser isn't readable from windows in anyt way
[07:30] <xlinux_> it always crashes my xwindow
[07:30] <TakeOut{u}> i've never had any problems with it xlinux_
[07:30] <echostorm> decon things get crazy - all the tests will come back right but ill get 21FPS in glxgears
[07:31] <danny3793> xlinux_: i used envy to install my GPU drivers, i just had some problems using the automated install
[07:31] <infernal_jesus> deCon: ah..
[07:31] <infernal_jesus> deCon: oh, nevermind then :)
[07:31] <michael> ! ntfs
[07:31] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[07:31] <echostorm> decon no reason whatsover... i can verify things are loded right from a script lol
[07:31] <Kaliree> My audigy1 isn't giving me any sound at all, even though the alsa mixer says it's there as does the hardware appelet
[07:31] <danny3793> xlinux_: using envy to automatically install my nVidia drivers for my GPU caused my xServer to crash also, if that happens use the nv driver and try to manually install the nvidia drivers
[07:31] <deCon> echostorm, is it a software issue within the game?
[07:32] <xlinux_> is it just the 9755 driver from the website that has these issues that im having
[07:32] <deCon> infernal_jesus, so it isn't detecting the second harddrive, but i wanted to partition both of them, any ideas?
[07:32] <jero872> how do i change the linux-restricted-modules-common to write instead of read only?
[07:32] <joseph> anyone here know of good multi-point video conferenciong software?
[07:32] <infernal_jesus> de
[07:32] <|_ocke> k so im back
[07:32] <infernal_jesus> deCon: is it formatted?
[07:32] <|_ocke> any other ideas with the alsa
[07:32] <echostorm> decon absolutely not... I would ave made it game specific... this little bugger is in Gnome
[07:32] <locolbd> danny3793:  my trackball has 4 buttons then the ball
[07:33] <danny3793> loco: why do you keep repeating the same thing to me?...
[07:33] <echostorm> decon needless to say its not fun when trying to make converts lol
[07:33] <locolbd> danny3793:  cause u not responding
[07:33] <danny3793> xlinux_: im not sure which driver version i have, lemme check...
[07:33] <BlackCow> hello
[07:33] <danny3793> loco: the scroll wheel is 3 buttons in itself...
[07:33] <BlackCow> just want to make sure it is possible to make a new partition on a disk with windows already installed on it?
[07:33] <xlinux_> ok, pardon my questions.. but whats the difference? I mean, envy installs the 9755 version too, so whats the difference between envy doing and me doing it from the prompt
 maybe ekiga ...
[07:33] <deCon> infernal_jesus, I don't know, its an OLD windows HDD that i stole from another box and just slid in and plugged in...
[07:33] <xlinux_> thanks danny
[07:34] <echostorm> decon I havent gotten far enough to try it in a game frankly
[07:34] <deCon> echostorm, are you using beryl?
[07:34] <joseph> wacky.. i don't think that I can be in two calls at once though
[07:34] <joseph> like a conference
[07:34] <locolbd> danny3793:  i have a trackball, so it never moves, i have 2 buttons on either sides and then a ball in the center to move the cursor
[07:34] <joseph> that's my concern
[07:34] <Andruk> ubuntu randomly reboots, anywhere i can check for errors?
[07:34] <infernal_jesus> deCon: rn fdisk
[07:34] <deCon> echostorm, and have you tried switching to the beta drivers? or other nvidia drivers?
[07:34] <echostorm> decon havent tried ityet... am willing to
[07:34] <locolbd> danny3793:  so i have 4 buttons, left and right, then page up , page down
[07:34] <danny3793> xlinux_: installing through the terminal uses the ubuntu repository, and not a driver from nvidia itself, envy downloads the driver from nvidia
[07:34] <deCon> infernal_jesus, i dont have a CLI, its a text based GUI install
[07:35] <deCon> echostorm, have you configured your xorg.conf properly to support your monitor/video card?
[07:35] <echostorm> decon no havent tried betas... went with latest and greatest.
[07:35] <danny3793> loco: ohhh dear, i dont know how to get one of those things working, lol...i have a regular mouse, you have a mouse like my dad has :P
[07:35] <infernal_jesus> deCon: fdisk :)
[07:35] <xlinux_> I see what you mean.. let me be more clear
[07:35] <deCon> echostorm, you might look into the betas
[07:35] <Kaliree> locolbd, my soundcard is recognized by the alsa, but it is not producing any sound
[07:35] <BlackCow> can I make a new partition on an already formated disk?
[07:35] <danny3793> xlinux_: i have 9755 installed also, are you sure you have told restricted drivers to no longer run your GPU?
[07:35] <xlinux_> I downloaded the driver from the nvidia website, killed X, and installed it at the command prompt
[07:35] <|_ocke> i have 9755 too, works great
[07:36] <crimsun> Kaliree: 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.
[07:36] <xlinux_> I dont have restricted modules installed.. none
[07:36] <crimsun> |_ocke: what was the result of the test?
[07:36] <|Assassin`|> How do i install emerald themes?
[07:36] <locolbd> danny3793:  but u can scroll up and down right?
[07:36] <|_ocke> ill get a new result 1 sec
[07:36] <locolbd> danny3793:  but u can scroll up and down right?
[07:36] <danny3793> loco: yes i have a scroll wheel ball in the middle of both "clickers" but your mouse may be setup differently
[07:37] <BlackCow> right so assuming you can make a new partition, when I try to make a new partition automatically it just freezes up on it
 skype!? hmm - i haven't tryed it yet - besides, it's evel closed-source ... :-/
[07:37] <|_ocke> http://pastebin.ca/490713
[07:37] <BlackCow> should i do manual?
[07:37] <joseph> no video in linux
[07:37] <joseph> and no multipoint

[07:38] <BlackCow> k
[07:38] <danny3793> xlinux_: did you have any problems with X starting up after you installed it?
[07:38] <|_ocke> gparted is the best partition editor evef
[07:38] <|_ocke> ever

[07:38] <BlackCow> can I run it off the CD?
[07:38] <insmod> xlinux_: cool
[07:38] <crimsun> |_ocke: amixer set 'Capture' nocap
[07:38] <|_ocke> and is included on all ubuntu livecds
[07:38] <|Assassin`|> ive asked like 12 times in the past hour or so
[07:38] <xlinux_> i can play games, glx gears works, and I can use beryl
[07:38] <crimsun> |_ocke: then, try setting all four DXS elements to 90%
[07:38] <locolbd> danny3793:  i have four buttons, left and right buttons, then i have one for pageup and one for page down
[07:39] <wacky> joseph: with other words: i have no idea, sir ... ;-)
[07:39] <joseph> its ok
[07:39] <danny3793> assassin: go to System -> Admin -> synaptic package manager, and search for Berly, Emerald will be in the list
[07:39] <joseph> i appreciate the help
[07:39] <|_ocke>   Front Left: Capture 0 [0%]  [off] 
[07:39] <|_ocke>   Front Right: Capture 0 [0%]  [off] 
[07:39] <joseph> at least i know i'm not missing anything obvious
[07:39] <|Assassin`|> well i have that
[07:39] <scarter> danny3793: no such luck either... guess i'll continue to live with it... about every couple of weeks i google and search for forums to see if anyone has posted anything new... same ol' same ol'... i really appreciate all your efforts.
[07:39] <|Assassin`|> i want to install a theme
[07:39] <Kaliree> crimsun, what did you want me to dl from that page?
[07:39] <insmod> xlinux_: awsome that's how i always do it
[07:39] <|Assassin`|> but i cant get it to work
[07:39] <xlinux_> BUT after a while, the screen starts flashing black randomly, and then, the system will freeze to the point of where I need to do a hard power down
[07:39] <insmod> xlinux_: how is your fps ?
[07:39] <crimsun> Kaliree: download, save, and run the alsa-info.sh script  as ``bash alsa-info.sh''
[07:39] <xlinux_> lemme check
[07:39] <|_ocke> all dxs are at 81
[07:40] <insmod> xlinux_: ah
[07:40] <danny3793> scarter: no problem man, i hope someone comes out with a fix for it soon, atleast your problem is a bit less horrible than mine :P:
[07:40] <danny3793> LOL*
[07:40] <Kaliree> Okay, give me a sec, I'm a linux noob.
[07:40] <scarter> danny3793: so true!
[07:40] <crimsun> |_ocke: set them to at least 90%
[07:40] <xlinux_> averages at 4800fps
[07:40] <danny3793> loco: give me one second to get some things together
[07:40] <xlinux_> wait, 5100fps
[07:40] <insmod> xlinux_: did you read the readme?
[07:40] <insmod> xlinux_: awsome fps what card ?
[07:40] <wacky> joseph: http://asterisk.org/ could be what you are looking for ...
[07:40] <locolbd> danny3793:  k
[07:40] <joseph> yeah
[07:41] <joseph> i've looked into that
[07:41] <xlinux_> geforce 7600
[07:41] <joseph> and it might work
[07:41] <|Assassin`|> any ideas??
[07:41] <joseph> i was hoping to find something that didn't require a dedicated server though
[07:41] <locolbd> !mouse
[07:41] <ubotu> Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[07:41] <BlackCow> gparted, must be root to run, can be used as a weapon of mass destruction :-P that's comforting!
[07:41] <xlinux_> i believe I read the readme.. its been so long since I started installing the drivers this way
[07:42] <Prez> hello
[07:42] <xlinux_> just now, after running glx gears, my screen just flashed black
[07:42] <danny3793> loco: ok, go to here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/ , and paste up what your xorg.conf has inside of it for your mouse, im going to try and get you setup
[07:42] <xlinux_> aand again..
[07:42] <tondar> hello all
[07:42] <xlinux_> it may freeze here soon, so if it does ill be back..
[07:42] <Prez> this is strange, i can connect to several networks fine, but i connect to undernet and then to any channel and x-chat crashes completely, any ideas?
[07:43] <insmod> xlinux_: glx may be conflicting did you unload the drivers it told you to in the readme
[07:43] <xlinux_> hold on.. lemme check
[07:43] <danny3793> scarter: are you still there?
[07:44] <Kaliree> crimsun, do I just run the script through the terminal? It keeps telling me the command is not found
[07:44] <Sam_> hey guys i got a problem with my ISP, i need to type :99 because my ISP blocks port 80
[07:44] <Sam_> is there any program in ubuntu that will forward the ports so everything that comes in on 80 forwards to 90
[07:44] <crimsun> Kaliree: yes.  Where did you download and save the script?
[07:44] <Sam_> so people do not have to do the annyoing
[07:45] <Kaliree> Sorry it took so long, my antivirus was blocking the dl.
[07:45] <Kaliree> On the desktop.
 i never get to know a possibility that didn't require a dedicated server ...
[07:45] <infernal_jesus> Sam_: how can your ISP block port 80?
[07:45] <danny3793> Sam_: LMAO, you are kidding me right? i would call up your ISP and ask them to unblock the web :)
[07:45] <Andruk> ubuntu randomly reboots, any help would be greatly appreciated?
[07:45] <Kaliree> Do I need to change to that directory and then run it?
[07:45] <infernal_jesus> Sam_: that's the port you surf web pages through
[07:45] <joseph> yeah
[07:45] <joseph> that's why i asked here
[07:45] <joseph> where everyone is smarter than me
[07:45] <joseph> :-)
[07:46] <Sam_> i understand
[07:46] <Sam_> but my ISP
[07:46] <locolbd> danny3793:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21102/
[07:46] <Sam_> My ISP blocks hosting on port 80
[07:46] <crimsun> Kaliree: bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh
[07:46] <Sam_> like i can recieve data
[07:46] <Sam_> but i cant send data
[07:46] <wacky> i think asterisk is the best choice ...
[07:46] <Sam_> they have some filtering thingy
[07:46] <|_ocke> Sam_, what are you on, clearwire?
[07:46] <Sam_> Cox
[07:46] <xlinux_> insmod, im currently reading the readme to make sure ive done everything...
[07:46] <locolbd> kaliree: no, just run it in whatever dir you are in
[07:47] <Sam_> im wonding if like port triggerin on my linksys will do it
[07:47] <Sam_> my domain is registerd with namecheap
[07:47] <tondar> k
[07:47] <Khrajin> macd: still around?
[07:47] <Sam_> idk if they have a service for free or somethin, cause i got my own dns setup, just i need that dam port thingy fixed
[07:47] <BlackCow> im running gparted, i really have no clue what im doing with it :-/
[07:47] <insmod> xlinux_: http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-9755/README/chapter-03-section-02.html
[07:47] <Sam_> unless. hmm would somehting like if i did ns1.samfiles.com
[07:47] <Sam_> which is my site
[07:47] <eifzon> does anyone here got problem with tabbing in steam?
[07:47] <Sam_> ...
[07:47] <infernal_jesus> Sam_: linksys router can have port forwarding
[07:47] <macd> Khrajin, sorta
[07:47] <|Assassin`|> OK about beryl
[07:47] <Sam_> and i did it on the ip 68.111.85.216:99
[07:47] <|Assassin`|> ??
[07:47] <Sam_> ?????
[07:48] <infernal_jesus> Sam_: go to Applications and Gaming > Port forward
[07:48] <Sam_> i understand port forwarding or trigering, but waht does taht actauully do
[07:48] <|Assassin`|> how do i get the theme to install
[07:48] <Kaliree> It's telling me permission denied.
[07:48] <Sam_> i user port forwarding to open ports
[07:48] <Khrajin> macd: Reset mobo defaults and realized a processor died... Could that prompt the tty error? lol
[07:48] <danny3793> loco: ok, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21104/
[07:48] <Sam_> port triggering
[07:48] <locolbd> sudo alsamixer
[07:48] <infernal_jesus> Sam_: a request comes on port 80 on the router
[07:48] <Sam_> is the one that changes ports
[07:48] <Sam_> it will send out to another pot?
[07:48] <Kaliree> How do I go root without losing switching GUI's.
[07:48] <Sam_> port?
[07:48] <macd> Khrajin, yessir.
[07:48] <infernal_jesus> Sam_: the router can then either forward the port somewhere or block it
[07:48] <locolbd> kaliree: sudo alsamixer
[07:48] <Kaliree> Gotcha.
[07:48] <locolbd> kaliree: then type in your password
[07:48] <Sam_> so what about trigger what is that
[07:48] <danny3793> loco: replace that with your xorg.conf and your mouse should work, if not we can switch the 4 5 with 2 3 and hope that works :P
[07:49] <crimsun> Kaliree: did you type precisely what I gave you?  ``bash alsa-info.sh''
[07:49] <|Assassin`|> how do i install the beryl theme?
[07:49] <infernal_jesus> Sam_: if you tell it to go to another port, linksys router will forward it to the port on the machine specified
[07:49] <Sam_> i understnad
[07:49] <Sam_> i need it for outband
[07:49] <danny3793> assassin: i told you to go to synaptic package managera nd search for Beryl
[07:49] <Sam_> if someone types in my adress,
[07:49] <Sam_> it will go but i cant send the data back
[07:49] <Sam_> what if on like namecheap.....
[07:49] <|Assassin`|> i did
[07:49] <Sam_> hmm
[07:49] <infernal_jesus> Sam_: send data back?
[07:49] <Kaliree> Yes I did.
[07:49] <Sam_> i did
[07:49] <|Assassin`|> i have it
[07:49] <Kaliree> With and without the quotes.
[07:49] <wacky> .
[07:49] <|Assassin`|> but how do i get it to work?
[07:49] <danny3793> Sam_: that is probably more for you protection of not getting your net cut off lol
[07:49] <Sam_> like i have to use something besdies port 80
[07:50] <Kaliree> I have also been into the alsa mixer
[07:50] <danny3793> assassin: did you download the Beryl-Manager?
[07:50] <Sam_> no they want you to pay like 250 a month for the unblocked vesion
[07:50] <Sam_> which is BS
[07:50] <crimsun> Kaliree: and you said you downloaded and saved the script on the desktop?
[07:50] <bluefox83> can someone go to nbc.com/heroes and let me know if the episode plays? i can't get heroes to play for some reason :(
[07:50] <Sam_> cause they really dont want you hosting
[07:50] <danny3793> Sam_: why not change ISPs then? :P
[07:50] <Sam_> to eat there bandwith..Z!
[07:50] <|Assassin`|> yes
[07:50] <Sam_> lol
[07:50] <Sam_> because cox is the fastest and the cheapest where i am
[07:50] <guycook> Hi, I"m the newest person , 48% done with formatting the partion of the 7.04 Ubuntu 64bit
[07:50] <Sam_> i dont get verizon FIOS
[07:50] <Sam_> but its like 45 bucks a month
[07:50] <Kaliree> I accidently opened it from the location at first, but it is now on my desktop and I have tried the command since.
[07:51] <Sam_> 12  dwnload
[07:51] <Sam_> 1 or 2 upload
[07:51] <crimsun> Kaliree: copy and paste this command:  bash ~/Desktop/alsa-info.sh
[07:51] <Sam_> mpbs
[07:51] <Sam_> dhZ
[07:51] <|Assassin`|> where would it have shown up at?
[07:51] <danny3793> Assassin: go to Applications -> System Tools and click on Beryl Manager, a red gem should appear in your task bar, right click that red gem and go to Select Window Manager and tell it to use Beryl
[07:51] <Kaliree> I can't copy that into terminal can I?
[07:51] <xlinux_> insmod, my xorg looks correct according to that readme
[07:52] <crimsun> Kaliree: yes you can.
[07:52] <Kaliree> Nm.
[07:52] <danny3793> assasin: if you have a problem with your title bars tell me after you do this, press ALT F2 and type metacity --replace and hit enter
[07:52] <Kaliree> Lol.
[07:52] <Kaliree> I'm a noob.

[07:52] <locolbd> danny3793:  that dont work, it just make that extra button do the same thing like the right click
[07:52] <infernal_jesus> guderian_ubuntu: no :)
[07:53] <crimsun> Kaliree: yes.
[07:53] <guycook> Does ubuntu find my DSL router and get it's IP ? Or does it need to be told.

[07:59] <danny3793> loco: is it working on diff buttons other than the correct ones??
[07:59] <Prez> so what could cause xchat to only crash when i join achannel on undernet?
[08:00] <Khrajin> Theoretically could you pop in the live ubuntu CD to a system w/o a hard-disk and have it load up fine?
[08:00] <rohan> how can i start or stop the hal service ?
[08:00] <|Assassin`|> wow your talking to like three or four different people danny you must be stressed lol
[08:00] <Kaliree> Nope. Still nothing.

[08:00] <majd__> Hey, is there a way to fix the trackpad issue with the macbook?
[08:00] <crimsun> Kaliree: does ``aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav'' give you anything audible?
[08:00] <majd__> i.e. the scroll and right click
[08:00] <danny3793> assassin: weird...well if you want to change your theme, go ahead and right click on the red gem, and select Emerald Theme Manager, and in there there should be some themes
[08:00] <|Assassin`|> maybe i'm missing something
[08:00] <majd__> !macbook
[08:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about macbook - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[08:00] <foug> how do i install ventrillo? i downloaded the .tar but it came with no readme
[08:01] <Kaliree> No.
[08:01] <|Assassin`|> yea but how do i select a theme and install it :)
[08:01] <danny3793> foug: what kind of files are inside of the .tar?
[08:01] <xlinux_> haha.. ok I see what you were going for.. but I already determined that its as a result of GLX, or the nvidia drivers
[08:01] <Sam_> its esy
[08:01] <Sam_> ventrilo is easy
[08:01] <guycook> BlackCow, are you using dual monitors with your ubuntu?
[08:01] <Sam_> just use winscp or do this
[08:01] <rohan> i think there's a problem in the backports packages of HAL. there is no way to start or stop the hal service ! can someone please check on their system and tell me whehter "ls /etc/init.d/*hal*" gives any result except halt ?
[08:01] <danny3793> assassin: all you do is click on the theme you want to display ;)
[08:01] <BlackCow> no
[08:01] <Sam_> are you doign it through wget
[08:01] <locolbd> danny3793:  no everything works as normal, the extra two buttons just work as left and right buttons now
[08:01] <foug> danny3793: a license, ventrillo_srv.ini and ventrillo_status, along with srv.htm and just srv no .extension
[08:01] <|Assassin`|> hmmm
[08:01] <xlinux_> it will not flash black or freeze if I dont do anything 3d
[08:01] <|Assassin`|> but it wont do anything
[08:01] <BlackCow> the ubuntu fourms should help you out
[08:01] <danny3793> loco: PERFECT! :D, now lemme switch those around and hope it works ;)
[08:01] <crimsun> Kaliree: pastebin the output from ``amixer''
[08:02] <crimsun> Kaliree: then tell me the url
[08:02] <Khrajin> Theoretically could you pop in the live/install ubuntu CD to a system w/o a hard-disk and have it load up fine?
[08:02] <Kaliree> I do have a little bit of white noise now though, but only a hum.
[08:02] <|Assassin`|> i may be missing a component??
[08:02] <Kaliree> Okay.
[08:02] <danny3793> assassin: if it doesnt then that means that Beryl probably controls the themes, so youll have to get Beryl to become your theme, try ALT-F2 Beryl --replace
[08:02] <BlackCow> i think i remember coming across doing dual monitors when trying to figure out wide screen resolutions
[08:02] <insmod> xlinux_: then glx is borked
[08:02] <rohan> crimsun: when you are free, please have a look - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/109882
[08:02] <danny3793> assassin: maybe, lemme get you a list of what i have installed, my beryl works fine, give me a sec :P
[08:02] <BlackCow> something isn't right, it shouldn't take this long
[08:02] <xlinux_> ok.. how do I fix it? Dont laugh at the broadness of this question.. lol
[08:03] <danny3793> loco: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21106/ , try that configuration right there, tell me if it works ;)
[08:03] <guycook> BlackCow, I agree you should've had progress by now I"d think, did you google for clues?
[08:03] <|Assassin`|> damn nothing
[08:03] <danny3793> assassin: ok now to get you the list :P
[08:03] <Kaliree> How do I "pastebin it"?
[08:03] <BlackCow> yeah they said to do it manually
[08:03] <wacky> back ...
[08:03] <insmod> xlinux_: so you are sure with no glx it is fine?
[08:03] <guycook> Ah, sound works!
[08:03] <rohan> Kaliree: go on pastebin.com , paste it, and give us the url
[08:03] <danny3793> khrajin: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[08:03] <|Assassin`|> can u talk on a pm screen
[08:03] <xlinux_> if this is the case insmod, then GLX has been borked every single time Ive installed it
[08:03] <foug> danny3793: nvm, it was a server client. I have to run vent through wine ;\
[08:03] <BlackCow> :-/ the manual one confuses me tho, ill try to find better info on how to do it
[08:03] <|Assassin`|> or to busy
[08:03] <|Assassin`|> lol
[08:03] <freeza> hmm feisty tells me the battery life of my wireless mouse, thats pretty spiffy
[08:03] <insmod> xlinux_: :) nice
[08:04] <danny3793> assassin: sent ya a PM :P
[08:04] <|Assassin`|> O_o
[08:04] <|Assassin`|> really
[08:04] <wacky> what can i do, if i have lost my secret gpg key - how can i delete the key on keyservers ?
[08:04] <|Assassin`|> i no c
[08:04] <xlinux_> yes, my system was running perfect for 16 hours, I ran GLXgears, and immediately after, the flashing started
[08:04] <danny3793> assassin: did you not get it? DAMN PMS!! lol, loco isnt getting them either...darn

[08:04] <xlinux_> within 5 minutes it froze
[08:04] <Sam_> ventrilo dude that is info
[08:04] <Sam_> if you need to figure how do vent do that through putty
[08:05] <Sam_> config is in dircetory
[08:05] <insmod> xlinux_: what card again?

[08:05] <Sam_> i posted again
[08:05] <guycook> Ah, networking to the net worked, getting updates via the "Update Manager" now...
[08:05] <Andruk> ubuntu keeps randomly rebooting...
[08:05] <|Assassin`|> you get mine danny?
[08:05] <xlinux_> geforce 7600
[08:05] <insmod> xlinux_: k one sec
[08:05] <xlinux_> allright
[08:05] <locolbd> danny3793:   ok
[08:06] <VoltageX> hi, I just got through reading the horror stories on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/48229, is this still an issue in Feisty?
[08:06] <|Assassin`|> i think he gave up lol
[08:06] <danny3793> you should have, Beryl, beryl-core, beryl-manager, beryl-plugins, beryl-plugins-data, beryl-settings, beryl-settings-bindings, emerald, emerald-themes, libberyldecoration0, libberylsettings0, libemeraldengine0
[08:06] <|Assassin`|> hey thanks :)
[08:06] <|Assassin`|> i appreciate that much
[08:06] <danny3793> assassin: nah, just typing up the packages you should havem and not im not getting your PMs, and you can get all that from your synaptic package manager :)
[08:06] <danny3793> assassin: no prob, i hope it helps :D
[08:06] <majd> how can i control the fan speed?
[08:07] <danny3793> loco: does your mouse work properly now??
[08:07] <|Assassin`|> ill be back if it don't :)
[08:07] <insmod> xlinux_: do you give the BusID ?
[08:07] <BlackCow> argh not even google can help me :-/
[08:07] <danny3793> assassin: kk :D
[08:07] <BlackCow> ive got a bunch of results on resizing for mac books lol
[08:07] <locolbd> danny3793:   same sorry danny boy
[08:07] <locolbd> does not work
[08:08] <Kaliree> I have made the mighty pastebin angry, it won't let me post it.
[08:08] <xlinux_> busID?
[08:08] <guycook> hmm...too easy, Restricted Drivers has the nvidia driver, just had to check the enable box and it's downloading something, might have dual monitors pretty soon.
[08:08] <danny3793> loco: is it doing it on the same buttons?
 which hardware ?
[08:08] <majd> wacky: apple macbook
[08:08] <locolbd> the first button does not work
[08:08] <locolbd> danny3793: the other one is the same as the right button
[08:08] <danny3793> loco: you need to be more specific :P, if its doing something its not supposed to be you need to tell me ;)
[08:08] <wacky> majd: try 'sudo sh -c "echo 1500 > /sys/devices/platform/applesmc/fan0_minimum_speed'
[08:09] <insmod> xlinux_: it maybe XFC specific my xorg box is upstairs but you may need to give it
[08:09] <guycook> Restart required, first impressions are .... this is very user friendly install.
[08:09] <jjore> How can I ask apt-get or dpkg what my list of installed packages is? I'm installing Savane which requires MySQL but I don't yet know if I have that.
[08:09] <locolbd> danny3793: the extra button ont he left side is does nothing, the extra button on the right side the doing the job as the right button, eg. when i right click
[08:09] <locolbd> !mouse
[08:09] <ubotu> Enabling extra mouse buttons: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto  - Enabling serial mouse: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SerialMouseHowto
[08:09] <insmod> xlinux_: what driver version?
[08:09] <majd> wacky: were you missing a " ?
[08:09] <xlinux_> 9755
[08:10] <crimsun> Kaliree: just choose another pastebin.  There are hundreds.
[08:10] <majd> wacky: after i added that " it didn't echo anything
[08:10] <rohan> Kaliree: rafb.net/paste
[08:10] <danny3793> loco: explain in detail how many ways your mouse can work, it has left/right click (2), it has up/down scroll (2), and has a scroll click?, has a button the LEFT SIDE (on the actual side of the mouse not ontop) and on the right?
[08:10] <wacky> majd: 1500 is the minimum_speed, which could changed
[08:10] <xlinux_> checking on BusID, checking on "XFC specific"
[08:10] <starkruzr> hi.  why does KMix only control the PC Speaker in the taskbar?
[08:10] <rohan> Kaliree: pastebin.com hasn't been working from MANY days .. try the rafb link i gave, or use pastebin.ca
[08:10] <majd> wacky: how do i change it?
[08:11] <danny3793> Kaliree: you can also use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[08:11] <wacky> majd -> sudo sh -c "echo 1500 > /sys/devices/platform/applesmc/fan0_minimum_speed
[08:11] <insmod> xlinux_: XFConfig is what was used befor xorg
[08:11] <Kaliree> Here you go:  http://rafb.net/p/qEmt1554.html
[08:11] <xlinux_> ahhh
[08:11] <Kaliree> Thanks so much for the help, by the way.
[08:11] <rohan> how do i check whether hal is currently running on my system or so ? and in the backports package, there are no initscripts for hal. is that intentional ?
[08:11] <danny3793> loco: are you still there?
[08:11] <tondar> explain to me smbfa<<
[08:11] <guycook> Excuse, I have the nvidia driver activated, what part of the gui will enable the 2nd display?
[08:11] <insmod> xlinux_: what version did you install
[08:12] <|Assassin`|> i had them all danny :)
[08:12] <locolbd> danny3793: i have 4 buttons, 2 on the left, two on the right, one button on the left works as any normal left button would, also one button on the right works as a normal right click button would work
[08:12] <nostferka> I have downloaded gcc compiler
[08:12] <nostferka> how do i install?
[08:12] <xlinux_> insmod, version 9755 from the nvidia website
[08:12] <danny3793> guycook: i believe you can do that with nvidia-settings, press ALT-F2 and type nvidia-settings and it should bring up a setup dialogue thingy
[08:12] <ori> anything to extend batery life for laptops running ubuntu?
[08:12] <locolbd> danny3793: tthe extra button on the right is used to scroll up, the extra button on the right is used to scroll down
[08:12] <BlackCow> *sigh* is it even possible to resize a partition
[08:12] <tondar> will someone explain smbfa file for me ?
[08:13] <|Assassin`|> i dont wanna give up :(
[08:13] <danny3793> ok
[08:13] <rohan> ori: well, not much .. turn of the unnecessary services.
[08:13] <wacky> majd: 1500 can be another value - lower or higher - you have to play with it ...
[08:13] <starkruzr> hi.  why does KMix only control the PC Speaker in the taskbar?  if I right click on it I can use it to adjust all my different levels, but the taskbar icon seems to only control the PC Speaker and I can't seem to find a way to change it. help?
[08:13] <danny3793> loco: i know your problem now, lemme fix the config
[08:13] <guycook> danny3793, thanks much it's ALL new to me.
[08:13] <rohan> ori: but i think the kernel 2.6.21 should significantly help battery life. but we won't have it till gutsy gibbon is released .. so well :(
[08:13] <VoltageX> BlackCow: yes, it is but no one in here seems to know/care whether a critical bug has been fixed in Dapper that corrupted the drive
[08:13] <Luke9511> im using ubuntu 6.10 and installed it on my dektop and got my video card installed but now im unable to boot to the login screen, i tryed installing kde and that didnt help, also tryed to reconfigure xorg.conf and that didnt work is there anything else i can try?
[08:13] <majd> wacky: k
[08:13] <wacky> majd: ?
[08:14] <ori> rohan: ok so there's no power management software or anything?
[08:14] <guycook> danny3793, you're money!  thanks
[08:14] <BlackCow> a bug eh?
[08:14] <BlackCow> so basically don't do it
[08:14] <danny3793> loco: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21108/ , that may fix your problem
[08:14] <rohan> ori: oh, there is ofcourse. what do you use ? gnome or kde ?
[08:14] <danny3793> guycook: no problem man :D
[08:14] <Kaliree> Did anyone get my link? I just want to make sure it didn't get lost in the mix.
[08:14] <danny3793> assassin: you had all them packages??
[08:14] <rohan> ori: on gnome, press alt-f2 type "gnome-power-manager"
[08:14] <|Assassin`|> yea
[08:14] <ori> rohan: gnome
[08:14] <insmod> xlinux_: it was added in 1.0-8756 -- i would try other versions yours may be bugy or try the latest see if it's fixed
[08:14] <|Assassin`|> im confused
[08:14] <majd> wacky: i didn't know i was supposed to change the number, worked great
[08:14] <majd> thanks
[08:14] <crimsun> Kaliree: sec, busy.
[08:14] <BlackCow> i wonder if I could dig up another hard drive, could I have to hard drives, windows installed on one, ubuntu installed on the other
[08:14] <Kaliree> No prob.
[08:14] <danny3793> loco: if both your left buttons work but the right side is messed up, tell me what button is not working right, and ill know whats wrong
[08:15] <|Assassin`|> i open the emerald themer 0
[08:15] <danny3793> assassin: remark them for reinstallation and reinstall all of them
[08:15] <ori> rohan: does it do much?
[08:15] <xlinux_> insmod, my card was added in that version?
[08:15] <|Assassin`|> ok
[08:15] <rohan> ori: yep, it's excelent
[08:15] <ori> rohan: thanks a lot
[08:15] <danny3793> assassin: if that doesnt work then i trully dont know, so lets hope it doesnt come to that :P
[08:15] <crimsun> Kaliree: amixer set 'Center' 80% && amixer set 'LFE' 80%
[08:15] <xlinux_> insmod, where can I get these older versions? Im using the latest driver, so maybe I should go back some versions
[08:15] <rohan> ori: np. and on kde there should be a battery icon in your system notification area
[08:15] <tondar> what's a good site for beryl plugins?
[08:16] <rohan> ori: which laptop is it ? (just curiosity)
[08:16] <locolbd> danny3793: no it does not
[08:16] <danny3793> tondar: have you tried the beryl official site?
[08:16] <ori> rohan: aspire 5100
[08:16] <danny3793> loco: what is happening with the mouse now
[08:16] <tondar> danny3793: well did but never found a link to plugins
[08:16] <VoltageX> which partitioner does the Feisty installer use?
[08:16] <rohan> ori: ah ok. so you won't have any software brightness control.
[08:16] <danny3793> tondar: lemme see if i can get you one
[08:16] <guycook> danny3793, got it!  thank you very much.
[08:17] <tondar> danny3793: thanks
[08:17] <danny3793> guycook: no problem, glad you got dual monitors working ;)
[08:17] <Kaliree> Still nodda.
[08:17] <insmod> xlinux_: http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_display_archive.html
[08:17] <xlinux_> insmod... ohhh nice
[08:17] <danny3793> tondar: http://forum.beryl-project.org/viewforum.php?f=37
[08:17] <ori> rohan: could I download something?
[08:18] <guycook> danny3793, me too, I was reading some 'horror' stories from older ubuntu's haveing issues with nvidia cards, not with the 7.04 version all was well.
[08:18] <crimsun> Kaliree: and you're positive you're using the correct output jack?
[08:18] <Kaliree> I'll double check.
[08:18] <tondar> danny3793: thank you
[08:18] <guycook> In 7.04 what is the IRC program?
[08:18] <danny3793> guycook: yeah, i read some horror stories too about dual monitors causing loads of problems, but im glad to see the Ubuntu team really does care about the community they support :), along with the people who provide their free time to give support to the users who use ubuntu :P
[08:19] <rohan> guycook: yes, gaim.
[08:19] <VoltageX> any idea if the ubuntu monkeys stopped playing with Beryl long enough to upgrade GParted to 0.2/3 ?
[08:19] <rohan> ori: no. our only hope is to email acer and have them make a software so that linux can access bios. but until then you won't get cool features like brightness reduces to half when AC adapter is removied
[08:19] <danny3793> guycook: you can use xchat which can be downloaded through synaptic package manager, or use wine to install mIRC, im on mIRC :P
[08:19] <crdlb> !info gparted
[08:19] <ubotu> gparted: GNOME partition editor. In component main, is optional. Version 0.2.5-2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 316 kB, installed size 1588 kB
[08:19] <rohan> guycook: though i prefer xchat
[08:19] <danny3793> crdlb!!! what a guy! :P
[08:19] <tondar> danny3793: been there b4, but no specific place for plugins list ??
[08:19] <xlinux_> so to recap.. 8756 is the driver version that first supported my card, and i can use any version up from there to the current 9755 driver
[08:19] <Kaliree> Yeah, and it works fine in XP.
[08:19] <danny3793> tondar: no i dont think there is. :(
[08:19] <ori> rohan: it does reduce brightness a bit I've noticed
[08:19] <vietamine> hi
[08:19] <guycook> I will use xchat too, that's what i have on this Fedora box
[08:20] <danny3793> loco: what buttons are not working...lol
[08:20] <tondar> :(
[08:20] <VoltageX> crdlb: :/ no idea if that fixes the NTFS corruption problem
[08:20] <rohan> ori: oh ? cool .. it doesn't work here on my acer travelmate 3260
[08:20] <locolbd> danny3793: forget it about it
[08:20] <Kaliree> I thought there might be a conflict with my onboard sound, since it was trying to use them both, but I disabled that in BIOS
[08:20] <crimsun> Kaliree: ok, we'll try reverting the jack change.  amixer set 'Audigy Analog/Digital Output Jack' mute
[08:20] <locolbd> danny3793: thanx for trying
[08:20] <ori> rohan: I think this is newer
[08:20] <hjacob> How do I downgrade packages version-numbers?
[08:20] <tondar> man aptonCD ROCKS
[08:20] <xlinux_> insmod.. I wonder how far I should go back? Probably work my way down to the 8756 and see if ut helps?
[08:20] <BlackCow> gah, this isn't possible to do then...
[08:21] <BlackCow> any ideas of what else I can do?
[08:21] <freeza> has anyone gotten amsn to work? it keeps asking for that tls thing
[08:21] <Kaliree> Crimsun! You're a beautfiul man! (or woman!)
[08:21] <danny3793> loco: noooo were sooo close!! :(, if your right side button that is supposed to right click is not working then i know whats wrong :P
[08:21] <BlackCow> Or is it reformat the entire HD or not use ubuntu
[08:21] <insmod> xlinux_: no idea try all
[08:21] <Kaliree> It's working fine now.
[08:21] <danny3793> loco: so which button is not working on the mouse
[08:22] <crimsun> Kaliree: excellent.
[08:22] <|Assassin`|> ok now what danny
[08:22] <Kaliree> Thanks so much!
[08:22] <crimsun> np
[08:22] <Kaliree> So what was the prob then?
[08:22] <danny3793> assassin: did you try to open beryl-manager and make Beryl the window manager?
[08:22] <Kaliree> I may be a noob, but I am trying to learn.
[08:22] <xlinux_> allright, im going to give 9631 a shot and see how well that goes. thanks for your help. Even if it doesnt work, at least im eliminating things
[08:22] <|Assassin`|> yea screen went flashy
[08:22] <VoltageX> BlackCow: sorry I missed part of the discussion - what are you trying to do? These people are mostly interested in shiny 3d effects.
[08:22] <danny3793> assassin: and are you missing title bars on your windows?
[08:22] <crimsun> Kaliree: that jack switch is problematic.  Some SBLive/Audigy models require it be muted; others require it be unmuted.
[08:22] <|Assassin`|> and didn't select it
[08:23] <|Assassin`|> meaning?
[08:23] <guycook> Ah, so the Package Manager is like YUM in fedora, it will detect dependencies too.
[08:23] <BlackCow> im just trying to resize a partition but that dosn't seem to be going well
[08:23] <shinygerbil> Dammit. This is why I shouldn't have my client highlight on the word "shiny".
[08:23] <Kaliree> Is that the same switch in alsamixer?
[08:23] <|Assassin`|> my menus???
[08:23] <danny3793> assassin: it should have......are you sure? by missing title bars, i mean are the close,maximize,and minimize buttons gone??
[08:23] <VoltageX> BlackCow: which version of Ubuntu?
[08:23] <|Assassin`|> no
[08:23] <BlackCow> 6.10
[08:23] <danny3793> hmmm
[08:24] <|Assassin`|> thats what i said
[08:24] <VoltageX> BlackCow: what kind of partition (windows drive?)
[08:24] <BlackCow> yeah NTFS
[08:24] <|Assassin`|> its weird
[08:24] <danny3793> right click on Beryl-Manager gem up in taskbar and make sure Beryl is the window manager
[08:24] <Khrajin> How do I make a server w/ 2 cpu's boot with only 1 cpu? (one is having errors, boots with 2 doesn't boot with 1)
[08:24] <crimsun> Kaliree: yes, it's the same switch.
[08:24] <VoltageX> BlackCow: big issues with that on 6.10, pop a 7.04 CD in and use GParted from that livecd
[08:24] <Kaliree> Huh. I thought I tried that, but must not have.
[08:24] <|Assassin`|> select window manager >> beryl
[08:25] <|Assassin`|> it wont check
[08:25] <BlackCow> alright
[08:25] <BlackCow> just install 7.04 then?
[08:25] <|Assassin`|> and my screen flashes a couple times
[08:25] <|Assassin`|> then comes back
[08:25] <danny3793> assassin: weird...lol...hmm, maybe something in it is corrupt? o.o
[08:25] <BlackCow> the only reason im using 6.10 is because of ubuntu ultimate edition
[08:25] <Kaliree> Oh hey, I have a keyboard with volume controls on it, but it seemed to be routed to the bass volume level in the GUI.
[08:25] <VoltageX> BlackCow: hang on, have you already got 6.10 installed or are you just starting trying to get Ubuntu going
[08:25] <danny3793> loco: are you still there?
[08:25] <BlackCow> im trying to get ubuntu going
[08:25] <Kaliree> I didn't see anywhere to remap those keys in the GUI tool.
[08:25] <crimsun> rohan: you seem to need alsa-driver hg.  See the bottom of the download page linked from the ALSA home page.
[08:26] <dawn_chorus> Khisanth, reconfigure your kernel with SMP.
[08:26] <crimsun> rohan: make sure you have build-essential, linux-headers-$(uname -r), autoconf, automake1.7, libtool, and mercurial installed.
[08:26] <rohan> crimsun: ok. checking :)
[08:26] <bullgard4> Does my Laptopcomputer or my battery have an Embedded Controller? My operating system Ubuntu 7.04 loads automatically the module i2c_ec. How to proceed to answer this question?
[08:26] <dawn_chorus> Khisanth, *without SMP.  remember to not overwright the backup.
[08:27] <|Assassin`|> i have it selected
[08:27] <VoltageX> BlackCow: use 7.04 if possible
[08:27] <danny3793> i wonder if the line of code to fix the menu bar issue could help you with that
[08:27] <|Assassin`|> i unchecked that fallback box
[08:27] <danny3793> assassin: ohhh you do??? is it working fine?? menu bars displaying fine?
[08:27] <|Assassin`|> and it chose it
[08:27] <guycook_> guycook_ is impressed with Ubuntu 7.04 64 install!  VERY EASY (helps if danny3793 and others are here <grin>)
[08:27] <crimsun> rohan: you need to download both alsa-kernel and alsa-driver from hg.  Then CWD into alsa-driver, and execute  ./hgcompile --with-oss=yes --with-sequencer=yes --with-cards=hda-intel --with-debug=full --with-kernel=/lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build && make && sudo make install-modules.  Then reboot.
[08:27] <danny3793> assassin: that means your beryl is crashing, do you see anything wrong with your windows?
[08:27] <|Assassin`|> yea but no theme :?
[08:27] <|Assassin`|> nope
[08:27] <VoltageX> BlackCow: are you identified with the server (so I can message you privately)
[08:28] <danny3793> guycook: =D
[08:28] <rohan> crimsun: thanks a LOT :) i am trying it now
[08:28] <lethu> freeza, are you installing amsn from source?
[08:28] <danny3793> assassin: ok click open emerald theme manager and tell me if there are any themes in there
[08:28] <|Assassin`|> yea there are
[08:28] <freeza> lethu, repos
[08:28] <danny3793> click on some and see if your theme changes
[08:28] <BlackCow> gah that meens I can't install ubuntu ultimate :-/
[08:28] <lethu> freeza, which repos?
[08:28] <|Assassin`|> it wont
[08:28] <BlackCow> which meens im going to have to go through the pain of installing codecs and stuff
[08:29] <freeza> lethu, im guessing the regular feisty repos
[08:29] <danny3793> assassin: ok, go to this link and install this beryl: http://forum.beryl-project.org/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=4781
[08:29] <BlackCow> but if 6.10 wont work then I guess I have to >_<
[08:29] <danny3793> assassin: that may fix beryl from crashing, im not sure..
[08:29] <|Assassin`|> ok will try
[08:29] <VoltageX> BlackCow: anything that this ultimate edition was so good for, I'll personally help you fix it
[08:29] <rohan> crimsun: the page gives link only to alsa-driver --> hg clone http://hg-mirror.alsa-project.org/alsa-driver alsa-driver .. i modify the url accordingly for alsa-kernel ?
[08:29] <lethu> freeza, try automatix repos it got the latest version
[08:29] <crdlb> |Assassin`|: has beryl /ever/ worked for you?
[08:30] <freeza> lethu,
[08:30] <Luke9511> how do i reinstall xserver so that i can boot into ubuntu?
[08:30] <freeza> lethu, ok
[08:30] <danny3793> assassin: the "code" box that contains the commands (dont use the # letters in your commands) those go into your terminal, some may require sudo infront of them
[08:30] <guycook> ohoh, I have ONE big wide monitor, not 2 side by side like I do on this box.....oops on me.
[08:30] <VoltageX> BlackCow: 6.10 = windows destroyed while trying to resize, 7.04 = resize windows partition correctly
[08:30] <danny3793> crdlb: hes trying to get it working, this is his first time :P, i told him to get it through synaptic, and its crashing
[08:30] <BlackCow> its basically just ubuntu with a bunch of extra stuff installed so you don't have to
[08:30] <crdlb> danny3793 and |Assassin`|: come to #ubuntu-effects
[08:30] <danny3793> crdlb: so i told him just now to go get the .20 thingy :P
[08:30] <BlackCow> oh crap, hopefully i didn't mess anything up then
[08:31] <VoltageX> BlackCow: please add me to msn, voltz240@hotmail.com
[08:31] <danny3793> crdlb: i forgot how to join another server and stay in this one...:(
[08:31] <BlackCow> wil do
[08:31] <BlackCow> thanks for your help
[08:31] <crdlb> danny3793: /j #ubuntu-effects
[08:31] <rohan> crimsun: sorry, i found them both
[08:32] <BlackCow> im going to boot back into vista and pray I didnt screw anything up
[08:32] <WindowLess> i have a fresh instnall of ubuntu 7.04. what's the _correct_ way to install multimedia (e.g. Flash)? thanks
[08:32] <danny3793> crdlb: kk im in, but assassin is not here now, hes installing the stuff i jsut sent him too...lol
[08:32] <crdlb> |Assassin`|: can you come to #ubuntu-effects ?
[08:32] <|Assassin`|> ok
[08:32] <danny3793> assassin: type /j #ubuntu-effects
[08:32] <Archon> is there something wrong with apache2 (or at least, my installation)... i get a heap of "apache2 <defunct>" processes
[08:32] <danny3793> in this window :P
[08:32] <Archon> and they keep incrementing
[08:32] <VoltageX> WindowLess: open a firefox window, go to a site that requires flash, let Firefox download it for you?
[08:33] <danny3793> WindowLess: try to let FireFox do that, i let FF do it by itself and it installed just fine :P
[08:33] <danny3793> WindowLess: it used Adobe though
[08:33] <rohan> WindowLess: sudo aptitude install flashplugin-nonfree
[08:33] <WindowLess> danny3793: i thought there was something we could do in ubuntu (add/remove or terminal) that would install all multimedia stuff in one go
[08:33] <danny3793> crdlb: assassin is in effects
[08:34] <rohan> WindowLess: or better still, sudo aptitude install ubuntu-restricted-extras ---> that will get all the stuff you'd ever need
[08:34] <VoltageX> rohan: thanks, couldn't remember that
[08:34] <rohan> danny3793: nah, don't do that. that way, package manager does not know that flash is installed
[08:34] <danny3793> windowLess: im not sure, i havent had to install anything extra though after installing flash :P
[08:34] <rohan> VoltageX: nah, don't do that. that way, package manager does not know that flash is installed
[08:34] <VoltageX> rohan: sorry
[08:34] <rohan> VoltageX: err.. sorry for repeating myself :(
[08:34] <guycook_> Thanks all, going now.
[08:35] <VoltageX> WindowLess: in Synaptic, go and find ubuntu-restricted-extras
[08:35] <WindowLess> VoltageX: thanks. is that Ubuntu's recommended way
[08:36] <VoltageX> WindowLess: if there was an "ubuntu way" that would be it
[08:36] <WindowLess> thanks, VoltageX rohan
[08:36] <rohan> crimsun: some error - http://rafb.net/p/642lj413.html
[08:37] <WindowLess> if it's so popular, why does it only have one star?
[08:37] <rohan> WindowLess: it was added recently in the ubuntu repos. the "stars" are decided by the number of hits it receives from the popcon software. so since it's recently added, it doesn't have enough hits
[08:37] <VoltageX> WindowLess: not everyone uses that, not everyone participates in the popularity thing (i.e. adding to the star rating)
[08:37] <WindowLess> add/remove is asking for my CD. why can't it get  ubuntu-restricted-extras from the internet?
[08:38] <crimsun> rohan: "http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa-driver alsa-driver" and "http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa-kernel alsa-kernel"
[08:38] <rohan> WindowLess: you need to remove the CD sources
[08:38] <VoltageX> rohan: take over, I fail at fixing APT
[08:38] <rohan> VoltageX: ;)
[08:38] <rohan> crimsun: no, that gives the error - abort: 'http://hg-mirror.alsa-project.org/alsa-driver alsa-driver' does not appear to be an hg repository!
[08:39] <crimsun> rohan: read the URIs carefully.
[08:39] <VoltageX> rohan: also I am not in the best mood, as everyone here seems to be more interested in shiny desktop effects rather than working software
[08:39] <rohan> crimsun: sorry
[08:39] <rohan> VoltageX: lol
[08:39] <WindowLess> rohan: thanks
[08:40] <crimsun> VoltageX: surely "everyone" is a bit of a stretch.
[08:40] <rohan> WindowLess: i don't have gnome handy, but somewhere in synaptic you can find the "Software sources" window. there you must disable the CD source
[08:40] <VoltageX> crimsun: scroll up a bit, it's all that was talked about
[08:41] <rohan> VoltageX: well, some people do like bling bling .. and it's for showing linux off to the 'doze users ;)
[08:42] <VoltageX> rohan: ok, great, but I suspect not wiping out windows data would impress them more
[08:42] <crimsun> VoltageX: "a lot of people" - sure.  "everyone" - no.  I spend hours of free time doing sound support for this distro.  So please, don't include me in your tirade.
[08:42] <VoltageX> crimsun: sorry.
[08:42] <rohan> VoltageX: lol .. here it did not wipe out windows
[08:43] <VoltageX> rohan: critical GParted bug that I've no idea whether it's been fixed for the Feisty installer, it was in 6.10
[08:43] <rohan> VoltageX: ah, no idea
[08:44] <XiXaQ> how can I change command for System > Exit?
[08:45] <saxonjf> Wanting help setting up default applications...
[08:45] <crimsun> VoltageX: Presuming you're referring to the desktop installer and not the alternate [debian-installer, text-based]  installer, have you searched through the bugs filed against ubiquity?
[08:46] <VoltageX> !ask | saxonjf
[08:46] <ubotu> saxonjf: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[08:46] <VoltageX> crimsun: ah, this is the new installer right?
[08:46] <saxonjf> I want to change my default DVD player from totem to kaffeine, anyone know how?
[08:46] <BlackCow> ubuntu just fucked up my vista install!
[08:46] <BlackCow> argh >_<
[08:46] <dawn_chorus> LOL
[08:47] <Madpilot> ubotu, language | BlackCow
[08:47] <ubotu> BlackCow: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:47] <varka> good job ubuntu ^^
[08:47] <XiXaQ> BlackCow, language please. Ubuntu didn't do anything you didn't tell it to.
[08:47] <crimsun> VoltageX: namely, http://preview.tinyurl.com/3atuh3
[08:47] <dawn_chorus> oh no.  there goes another ~hour~.
[08:47] <dromer> hi all, I seem to need to recompile mpd for AAC/M4A support, can someone help me with this?
[08:47] <BlackCow> im sorry, you can imagine me being just a little agitated
[08:47] <VoltageX> BlackCow: do not make any changes to your vista install ,stay in Ubuntu for a minute
[08:47] <Madpilot> BlackCow, nobody really needs Virusta anyway :P
[08:47] <cry0x> I would see breaking a vista install as a good thing
[08:47] <XiXaQ> BlackCow, if you hit yourself with a hammer, would you get mad at the hammer?
[08:47] <dawn_chorus> BlackCow, you backed up before all this right?
[08:47] <saxonjf> cry, I tend to agree
[08:47] <Knoeki> http://hardwarehacks.untergrund.net/misc/pix/tuxbanner.png =)
[08:48] <BlackCow> yeah i have some files backed up
[08:48] <VoltageX> crimsun: see Blackcow? that's the bug I'm talking about
[08:48] <dawn_chorus> BlackCow, so what is it man?  Vista won't boot?
[08:48] <Knoeki> everyone who wants to may use that benner =)
[08:48] <cry0x> BlackCow, what is broken?
[08:48] <BlackCow> seriously im not looking for windows hating here
[08:48] <BlackCow> it wont boot up
[08:48] <BlackCow> it just gets stuck on "starting windows vista"
[08:48] <BlackCow> right after i try to install ubuntu
[08:49] <dawn_chorus> BlackCow, did you re-size the Vista partition when installing ubuntu?
[08:49] <saxonjf>  I want to change my default DVD player from totem to kaffeine, anyone know how?
[08:49] <BlackCow> yeah
[08:49] <BlackCow> but it didnt work
[08:49] <dawn_chorus> stinking default partitioner!!
[08:49] <BlackCow> it just froze on it
[08:49] <VoltageX> dawn_chorus: known bug in GParted for the installer on 6.10
[08:49] <dawn_chorus> UBUNTU NEEDS TO CHANGE IT.
[08:49] <dawn_chorus> there.
[08:49] <freeza> lol
[08:49] <VoltageX> BlackCow: do not panic.
[08:49] <dawn_chorus> I said it.
[08:49] <panduwana> hello, anybody knows how to make #include <sys/stat.h> (for mknod()) work in 6.10?
[08:49] <nicholaspaul> Q: I need a new Firewire/USB pci card. will all work in Ubuntu?
[08:49] <_Ahti> BlackCow: Yeah, You may have damaged your Vista
[08:49] <crimsun> dawn_chorus: kinda provide a patch, then.  Colin is overworked, and you're not helping by ranting.
[08:50] <BlackCow> just wonderful
[08:50] <VoltageX> eeveryone who is interested in helping BlackCow read https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gparted/+bug/48229
[08:50] <rohan> crimsun: is it necessary to reboot ? cant i just unload and reload the sound module /
[08:50] <BlackCow> gg ubuntu
[08:50] <XiXaQ> BlackCow, in the future, don't make radical changes to your system without backing up first..
[08:50] <VoltageX> BlackCow: wait, there is probably a fix
[08:50] <_Ahti> BlackCow: Is it? 0_0' i'd be pretty pissed off
[08:50] <xlinux_> insmod, you still here
[08:50] <_Ahti> BlackCow: (:P)
[08:50] <dawn_chorus> crimsun, just put "manual" as default when paritioning comes up.  that's my gripe.  it's set to resize the existing partition, which will bork windows like a charm.
[08:50] <Khrajin> BlackCow: Don't bite the hand that feeds
[08:50] <BlackCow> a fix would be nice
[08:50] <VoltageX> EVERYONE READ THE DAMN BUG REPORT FOR THE UBUNTU INSTALLER
[08:51] <nicholaspaul> ...anyone free to help?
[08:51] <crimsun> rohan: modprobe -r $(lsmod |grep ^snd|awk '{print $1}') && modprobe snd-hda-intel
[08:51] <eifzon> Why doesent my mic work in linux? but in windows..? I did unmute all the things in alsamixer that was called as mic, anything more i can do?
[08:51] <BlackCow> you guys don't have to defend linuxs' honor i still love linux
[08:51] <BlackCow> its gparted that screwed me
[08:51] <_Ahti> VoltageX: Why should i, i use 6.06 :P
[08:51] <crimsun> eifzon: pastebin your ``amixer'' output, then tell me the url.
[08:51] <BlackCow> i just want to fix it
[08:51] <BlackCow> it possible
[08:51] <BlackCow> b4 this weekend
[08:51] <VoltageX> BlackCow: you should be able to run ntfsfix
[08:51] <sqnl> Quem aqui  de maring?
[08:51] <BlackCow> um, i guess?
[08:52] <BlackCow> i dunno
[08:52] <nicholaspaul> so should i assume that nobody knows anything about firewire pci cards?
[08:52] <BlackCow> what did I do?
[08:52] <panduwana> hello, how to use mknod() in init_module()?
[08:52] <rohan> crimsun: bleh, i'd rather reboot ;)
[08:52] <rohan> br
[08:52] <rohan> *brb
[08:52] <_Ahti> BlackCow: first see if you even got that program
[08:53] <panduwana> it's always error when #including usr/include/sys/stat.h
[08:53] <VoltageX> BlackCow: you used a buggy version of gparted/ntfs support accidentally, not your fault
[08:53] <Luke9511> how do i reinstall xserver?
[08:53] <cry0x> Luke9511, what is the issue?
[08:54] <Gursikh> Hey guys, how do I find where my USB stick is called for mounting? (e.g. is it hda1 sdb1 sda1, etc.)
[08:54] <BlackCow> so in the terminal it typed, "ntfsfix"
[08:54] <xlinux_> well, for any of you who were here when I was asking questions about my freezing problem, I learned something about NVIDIA
[08:54] <BlackCow> what drive to I specify?
[08:54] <nicholaspaul> so should i assume that nobody knows anything about firewire pci cards?
[08:54] <VoltageX> "well, i cannot say for certain it's a duplicate of that bug, but i do know
[08:54] <VoltageX> gparted-0.1 had quite some problems with (mainly ntfs) resizing.
[08:54] <VoltageX> All this is fixed in later versions (from 0.2), which ubuntu dapper doesn't
[08:54] <VoltageX> use.
[08:54] <VoltageX> I'm very sorry about all this, but i cannot force ubuntu to use certain
[08:54] <andruk_> feisty keeps randomly rebooting on me
[08:54] <VoltageX> versions of gparted ;-)"
[08:54] <Luke9511> cry0x:i cant boot into windows cause it doesnt seem to detect my screen or something and i have tryed kde and reconfigureing the xorg.conf with no luck
[08:54] <_Ahti> Luke9511: i guess... You change your session to "Failsafe Terminal" on GDM, run "sudo apt-get remove --purge xserver" and then "sudo apt-get install xserver" 0_0'
[08:54] <Luke9511> not windows but gnome
[08:54] <cry0x> nicholaspaul, linuxquestions.org has a very extensive hardware database
[08:55] <saxonjf> I want to change default video from Totem to Kaffeine, how does one go about doing that?
[08:55] <BlackCow> jeez thats one hell of a bug
[08:55] <nicholaspaul> thx cry0x
[08:55] <VoltageX> !find ntfsfix
[08:55] <cry0x> no problem :)
[08:55] <ubotu> File ntfsfix found in ntfsprogs
[08:55] <VoltageX> BlackCow: yep, just found out about it this afternoon
[08:55] <VoltageX> BlackCow: sudo apt-get install ntfsprogs
[08:55] <_Ahti> Luke9511: depending on the issue, of course...
[08:55] <BlackCow> ntfsfix seems to be recognized
[08:56] <Luke9511> _Ahti:well i am unable to boot into gnome or kde and it has something to do with xorg.conf i think or drivers
[08:56] <VoltageX> ok, so... I'm not currently in Ubuntu, can someone please read the manpage for ntfsfix to help BlackCow out?
[08:56] <BlackCow> how does a bug like that get past the beta testers lol
[08:56] <VoltageX> BlackCow: no idea
[08:56] <nix> somebody was asking what's the usb mass storage device is called.. sda hda... (shit scrolled up)
[08:56] <nix> its probably sda
[08:56] <BlackCow> i can run ntfsfix
[08:57] <rohan> crimsun: that didn't work .. sound still doesn't mute after inserting headphone
[08:57] <tehxed> Why does my video stop working when I enable Desktop Effects in Ubuntu 7.04?
[08:57] <nix> try mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
[08:57] <rohan> nix: everything on ubuntu is sdX now
[08:57] <BlackCow> i just dont know what drive to specify
[08:57] <VoltageX> BlackCow: yeah, just got to find out exactly what you have to do
[08:57] <BlackCow> it wouldn't be like the C drive right?
[08:57] <VoltageX> BlackCow: no
[08:57] <nix> rohan: everything?
[08:57] <rohan> crimsun: any ideas ?
[08:57] <rohan> nix: yes, the hard discs, cdroms etch
[08:57] <VoltageX> BlackCow: only one drive in your computer?
[08:57] <rohan> *etc
[08:57] <eifzon> crimsun: do you got time to help me+
[08:57] <VoltageX> rohan: not on my install...
[08:58] <BlackCow> yeah only 1
[08:58] <nix> I mean.. I have an IDE hdd and its mounted from /dev/hda in feisty
[08:58] <VoltageX> BlackCow: tell me what ls /dev/hda1 says
[08:58] <rohan> VoltageX: from feisty onwards
[08:58] <VoltageX> rohan: clean install of feisty, it shows my drives still as /dev/hdaX
[08:58] <rohan> VoltageX: :O
[08:59] <Ademan> !space
[08:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about space - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:59] <tehxed> Why does my video stop working when I enable Desktop Effects in Ubuntu 7.04?
[08:59] <Ademan> tehxed: what video card?
[08:59] <RAOF> VoltageX, rohan: Not all controller/drive combinations have been migrated to libata (due to specific bugs).  *Almost* everything is /dev/sd?, though :)
[08:59] <BlackCow> um i dunno
[08:59] <Ademan> anyone know what sort of hard drive real estate a default ubuntu install takes up?
[08:59] <VoltageX> BlackCow: I need to know what ls /dev/hda1 says
[08:59] <tehxed> Ademan: ATI Radeon X300
[08:59] <Ademan> tehxed: have you installed the drivers for it?
[08:59] <VoltageX> Ademan: 2gb+ at a first glance
[09:00] <BlackCow> what do you meen what does it say?
[09:00] <tehxed> Ademan: ...I don't know. I'm on a fresh install of Ubuntu 7.04
[09:00] <VoltageX> BlackCow: ls /dev/hda1 [press enter] 
[09:00] <Ademan> tehxed: if you didn't install the drivers yourself then they're not there
[09:00] <Ademan> !ati > tehxed
[09:00] <BlackCow> it returns /dev/hda1
[09:00] <Luke9511> could i have messed up xserver when trying to install drivers for my video card?
[09:00] <BlackCow> i tried ntfsfix /dev/hda1
[09:00] <VoltageX> BlackCow: good, try ntfsfix /dev/hda1
[09:00] <Ademan> tehxed: ubotu should have sent you a personal message regarding installing ati drivers
[09:00] <VoltageX> oh
[09:00] <tehxed> Ademan: But Desktop Effects seems to run fine.
[09:00] <BlackCow> and it failed
[09:00] <RAOF> tehxed: Don't follow that, the open-source "ati" drivers will be a whole lot less effort than getting fglrx to work
[09:01] <BlackCow> says volume is corrupt
[09:01] <crimsun> rohan: have you tried all the models?
[09:01] <BlackCow> it says I should run chkdsk
[09:01] <eifzon> anyone here knows how to unmute capture elements and mic boost elements?
[09:01] <Ademan> RAOF: ati drivers support 3d? since when?
[09:01] <VoltageX> BlackCow: hmm, that's what it's supposed to fix! Give me 5 minutes to go read up
[09:01] <tehxed> Ademan: Why would I need drivers? Video works when I don't have Desktop effects enabled..? Doesn't that mean I have drivers already installed?
[09:01] <BlackCow> alright, thanks again
[09:01] <RAOF> Ademan: Since ages, for old things (r200).  Feisty's ati drivers support 3D for up to x850 :)
[09:01] <Ademan> tehxed: not really, you're using the 2d drivers right now
[09:01] <BlackCow> computers really suck sometimes
[09:01] <Ademan> RAOF: oh, wow lol
[09:01] <rohan> crimsun: no, just the default what ubuntu loads. what model should i try ?
[09:02] <Ademan> RAOF: i don't touch ATI so i wouldn't know :-p
[09:02] <RAOF> tehxed, Ademan: No, you're using the open-source 3d drivers.  Keep using them!
[09:02] <Ademan> not with a 20 foot pole
[09:02] <tehxed> Ademan: So wait.. shou..what should I be doing?
[09:02] <Ademan> tehxed: RAOF seems to know far more than me
[09:02] <RAOF> tehxed: You probably want to hit #ubuntu-effects, and ask crdlb - he's got an open-source supported ati card, too.
[09:02] <Ademan> RAOF: do they support composite though?
[09:02] <tehxed> RAOF: So.. how would.. wait..-- What about my video not working when Desktop Effects are enabled? what do I do to fix that issue?
[09:02] <crimsun> rohan: I'll need to inspect your paste, sec.
[09:02] <rohan> crimsun: ok
[09:03] <RAOF> Ademan: Yup.  You get Compiz enableable out of the box.  They rock.
[09:04] <tehxed> Does anyone know of a good settings manager for Desktop Effects in Ubuntu 7.04?
[09:04] <Kaliree> I have a flash drive that won't let me mount it. It is FAT32 4gig pen drive and I have been using it in XP just fine. Ubuntu keeps saying that " Unable to mount media. There is probably no media on the drive." Any ideas?
[09:04] <Flannel> tehxed: try #ubuntu-effects, theyre the experts
[09:05] <pihus> Is it possible to somehow use MS Exchange with linux??
[09:05] <danny3793> well, now i myself have a problem, i am getting a complete whitescreen after logging in, i disabled nVidia as a restricted driver as i downloaded teh drivers using envy, and now i cannot get past this white screen...
[09:05] <Ademan> RAOF: then could it be composite isn't enabled in his xorg.conf?
[09:05] <tehxed> Flannel: Thank you.
[09:05] <RAOF> Ademan: No, because
[09:05] <jjore> pihus: sure, use the Exchange connector for Evolution or have Exchange do imap.
[09:05] <VoltageX> BlackCow: sorry, having my own issues here, I'll be 10 minutes, max.
[09:05] <RAOF> Ademan: No, compiz is *working*, it's just breaking his video playback.
[09:06] <danny3793> anyone know how i can fix this whitescreen problem??
[09:06] <pihus> I don't have imap/pop access to our copmany's exchange server
[09:06] <rohan> crimsun: well, the hg sound drivers work just like the current ones .. i mean, is there anyway to know what version of module am i using ?
[09:06] <pihus> so the Exchange connector for evolution can handle it without pop/imap?
[09:06] <RAOF> danny3793: Join #ubuntu-effects, where we know about such things (and stop using beryl :))
[09:06] <_0ThreeFiftySeve> Any one know where i can get a LIVE CD version of ubuntu ???
[09:06] <BlackCow> im probably just going to have to reformat everything
[09:06] <BlackCow> ill only lose some data
[09:06] <rohan> RAOF: beryl ftw :P ;)
[09:06] <VoltageX> BlackCow: NO.
[09:06] <Madpilot> _0ThreeFiftySeve, the "Desktop" version is the LiveCD
[09:06] <cry0x> _0ThreeFiftySeve, the default install cd is live
[09:06] <BlackCow> lol ok
[09:07] <rAstari> g'day all. After the 7......04 update i got this message "FATAL : could not open /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/volatile/nvidia.ko." x wont start
[09:07] <crimsun> rohan: cat /proc/asound/version
[09:07] <Kaliree> Will Beryl screw up your video with Nvidia?
[09:07] <crimsun> rohan: I need to look at your paste again.
[09:07] <_0ThreeFiftySeve> ok ---didnt know that--:-)
[09:07] <BlackCow> cue darth vader "noooooooooooooooooo"
[09:07] <danny3793> is anyone even over in the effect channel...?
[09:07] <Kaliree> I just dl'd the package, that's why I wondered.
[09:07] <rohan> crimsun: ah yes, they're the hg drivers
[09:07] <rAstari> g'day all. After the 7......04 update i got this message "FATAL : could not open /lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/volatile/nvidia.ko." x wont start
[09:08] <deCon> can anyone help me figure out how to get special functions working from my keyboard and remote combo (logitech)????
[09:08] <Ademan> RAOF: OH! i interpreted "breaking video" as like his entire video, not liek mplayer or something lol, you're right though that makes more sense
[09:09] <pihus> jjore, so the evolution connector uses owa? or what?
[09:09] <jjore> pihus: dunno.
[09:09] <jjore> ask an evolution expert.
[09:09] <BlackCow> im surprisingly upbeat for someone who just hosed their computer
[09:09] <pihus> If i only knew where to find one :) But thanx anyway :)
[09:10] <BlackCow> *bashes head againt desk*'
[09:10] <VoltageX> BlackCow: I've hosed it worse than you have before ;)
[09:10] <_Ahti> rAstari: Yeah, i suggest you go see the ubuntuforums.org. There seems to be an issue between Ubuntu and nVidia 0_0
[09:10] <BlackCow> any chance I can recover?
[09:10] <VoltageX> yes.
[09:10] <VoltageX> but it relies on you staying in ubuntu for now
[09:11] <rAstari> ahti:thanks
[09:11] <Khrajin> BlackCow: What did you do?
[09:11] <VoltageX> the less you touch the ntfs drive, the better
[09:11] <xlinux_> why do you say that theres an issue between nvidia and ubuntu
[09:11] <BlackCow> i was trying to resize a partition in 6.10
[09:11] <BlackCow> and i hosed vista
[09:11] <Khrajin> ....Ouch
[09:11] <VoltageX> Khrajin: buggy gparted hosed the ntfs partition
[09:11] <Khrajin> Um.
[09:11] <BlackCow> and I didn't do the best job backing stuff up
[09:11] <Khrajin> What you can do is dl Ultimate Boot CD 4 Win
[09:11] <Khrajin> ubcd4win.com
[09:11] <Khrajin> Load it up
[09:12] <Khrajin> under disk tools is 'testdisk'
[09:12] <BlackCow> ok...
[09:12] <Khrajin> a console based disk recovery program
[09:12] <VoltageX> Khrajin: this is sounding like a better solution, but you will have to take over helping BlackCow
[09:12] <_Ahti> xlinux_: Well, i've seen so many people come here and say theres an issue with their nVidia card... Theres loads of info on ubuntuforums, so... :)
[09:12] <Khrajin> You'll basically go into 'analyze' and have it scan each sector of your hdd for partitions
[09:12] <Khrajin> it takes a while..
[09:13] <Khrajin> I work in IT, like pretty much everyon here, but I consider myself a bit more skilled in data recovery, short of having a clean room
[09:13] <xlinux_> yeah, but theres a lot of different people using ubuntu, of varying skill levels
[09:13] <xlinux_> :)
[09:13] <VoltageX> BlackCow: Khrajin is correct, UBD is amazing, but I haven't used it for 2 or so years so Khrajin is going to have to help you
[09:13] <BlackCow> alright
[09:13] <_Ahti> xlinux_: Noted, :)
[09:13] <Khrajin> VoltageX: I have been using it for the last year, it's amazing. The TestDisk program is my favorite.
[09:13] <BlackCow> will it fix whats corrupted?
[09:13] <VoltageX> Khrajin: sorry to lump this on you
[09:13] <Khrajin> I've actually re-written 2 partitions which were all slammed
[09:13] <Khrajin> BlackCow: Hard to say.
[09:13] <BlackCow> better then nothing
[09:13] <VoltageX> BlackCow: should do, but don't get your hopes up too high
[09:13] <xlinux_> I mean, I just learned something today that might have been my flashing/freezing problem all along, and I NEVER saw it mentioned in the forums
[09:14] <Khrajin> BlackCow: The entire purpose of the TestDisk is to get your HDD to recognize the correct partitions
[09:14] <Khrajin> Data recovery is iffy if you smash your partitions
[09:14] <deCon> anyone have an ideas how to get VIVO working with ubuntu? I want to play console games through my video card
[09:14] <BlackCow> well reformating isn't the end of the world but ill try to fix it first
[09:14] <codename> I got some questions?
[09:14] <Khrajin> Right, that's why you should DL and setup the UBCD4Win and get into the testdisk prog
[09:15] <VoltageX> !ask | codename
[09:15] <ubotu> codename: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[09:15] <Khrajin> !ask | codename
[09:15] <Pentalive> Hi
[09:15] <Khrajin> lol
[09:15] <codename> thanks
[09:15] <codename> umm
[09:15] <codename> I reformatted and lost all my music, I was wondering is their any safe way to get muisic
[09:15] <xlinux_> sup pentalive
[09:15] <codename> I'm running Ubuntu BTW.
[09:15] <Khrajin> BlackCow: Be very careful with the testdisk program. It is very easy to mess things up bad.
[09:15] <_Ahti> But if BlackCow re-sized his hard-drive to fit Ubuntu on it... and part of the windows' partition was corrupted, How could it be recovered if theres something NEW written on that part of the hard-drive????
[09:16] <Pentalive> I just installed 7.04 today and c programs that compiled under redhat, don't. they can't seem to find
[09:16] <Khrajin> codename: Mount the HDD in a windows based system, dl Stellar Phoenix Data Recovery
[09:16] <Pentalive> their header files
[09:16] <Khrajin> (or something like that)
[09:16] <VoltageX> _Ahti: gparted is very, very broken in 6.10
[09:16] <xlinux_> oh snap, thats above my head
[09:16] <Khrajin> Scan the disk and see if any 'deleted' files come up.
[09:16] <_Ahti> VoltageX: Theres a reason why i'm sticking with 6.06 :P
[09:16] <BlackCow> lol, and it got past the beta testers?
[09:16] <codename> Ya I completley reformatted LOL, like twice so thats sucks for me, but I was wondering is their any safe way of DLINg music?
[09:17] <Khrajin> codename: pay napster 15$ a mo
[09:17] <xlinux_> well yeah, especially for linux
[09:17] <BlackCow> im starting to think of some things that are going to hurt if I lose
[09:17] <Pentalive> isn't GCC properly setup by the install?
[09:17] <BlackCow> it
[09:17] <VoltageX> Codename: you have to buy it first, and it's Downloading not DLIN
[09:17] <rohan> Pentalive: sudo aptitude install build-essential
[09:17] <codename> Sorry.
[09:17] <rohan> codename: you can try frostwire or limewire or anyhting else, but check that it's legal where you stay
[09:17] <_Ahti> codename: or at lease... dl-ing :P
[09:17] <Madpilot> codename, Ubuntu has a first-class CD ripper. And a decent default BitTorrent client. Hit Jamendo for legal torrents
[09:17] <Khrajin> BlackCow: Well you can poke around with testdisk and just do analyze and don't 'write' anything unless yo uare absolutely sure it found the old partitions.
[09:17] <_Ahti> at least*
[09:18] <xlinux_> haha, does Napster, etc, even have a program that interfaces with Linux?
[09:18] <codename> With Napster is that unlimited downloads for $15?
[09:18] <Khrajin> codename: www.napster.com
[09:18] <VoltageX> codename: drm-infested downloads from Napster
[09:18] <QuixoticJ> hi everyone!
[09:18] <VoltageX> Khrajin: or has that changed?
[09:18] <xlinux_> yeah, use frostwire
[09:18] <xlinux_> hahaha
[09:18] <BlackCow> ok
[09:18] <VoltageX> I second frostwire
[09:18] <_Ahti> QuixoticJ: hello
[09:18] <Khrajin> VoltageX: iTunes is getting less DRM-infested but Napster is still heavily infested.
[09:18] <theTrav> hi gang, I'm looking for some software for my media center machine.  Currently I'm looking for something VNC like
[09:18] <QuixoticJ> I have 2 harddrives in my computer and I just did a linux ubuntu install. I picked the automatic use entire harddisk install but I was wondering how I can confiugre the second hard disk to work also?
[09:18] <BlackCow> so should i go to another computer and download this program
[09:19] <BlackCow> and put it to CD?
[09:19] <_Ahti> Whats the difference between Froswire and Limewire??????
[09:19] <QuixoticJ> I beleive the installer just used all of the first hdd.
[09:19] <VoltageX> Khrajin: hence, I use beatport - only for electronic genre but no DRM
[09:19] <theTrav> I want to be able to have it play movies on the projector but control it via the network
[09:19] <|_ocke> http://blogs.tampabay.com/breakingnews/2007/05/armless_drives_.html
[09:19] <BlackCow> it looks like a .exe to me, how am I going to run it
[09:19] <VoltageX> _Ahti: Frostwire = good, Limewire = evil
[09:19] <VoltageX> BlackCow: use another Windows machine if possible
[09:19] <_Ahti> VoltageX: How so? 0_0'
[09:19] <|_ocke> albumbase.com == good, p2p == bad
[09:19] <xlinux_> Frostwire is opensource, and enables "turbo" crap by default
[09:19] <theTrav> anyone got any recommendations?
[09:19] <crimsun> rohan: the source code states that there's no pin for jack detection yet.  You'll need to use "standard mute methods".
[09:19] <xlinux_> they both kinda suck though
[09:19] <|_ocke> use wine
[09:19] <_Ahti> xlinux_: Right...
[09:19] <xlinux_> they both use #$#%$ java
[09:19] <BlackCow> should i move my hard drive to another computer?
[09:20] <Pentalive> Rohan - Will that get stuff like curses too?
[09:20] <codename> oh ya another question
[09:20] <VoltageX> _Ahti: please buy limewire please buy limewire -- that's all you get
[09:20] <codename> is their any audio recorders for linux?
[09:20] <dromer> can someony help me recompile mpd for m4a support?
[09:20] <codename> Like GoldWave or something
[09:20] <BlackCow> oy, i hope i can fix this b4 the weekend
[09:20] <Khrajin> VoltageX: what is beatport?
[09:20] <rohan> crimsun: damnnnnnn :( no automatic way at all ?
[09:20] <|_ocke> if you really want p2p use aMule
[09:20] <_Ahti> VoltageX: Well i know that T_T
[09:20] <|_ocke> CodeImp, tons of em
[09:20] <rohan> Pentalive: yes, i think so
[09:20] <VoltageX> Khrajin: task at hand, can he move the drive to another machine?
[09:20] <|_ocke> many built into normal distributions
[09:20] <rohan> crimsun: not using any model ?
[09:21] <_Ahti> Well i dont know how to use aMule, so... T_T'
[09:21] <BlackCow> i guess I have to, how else could I run a .exe
[09:21] <crimsun> rohan: correct.  See lines 6489-6492 of http://hg.alsa-project.org/alsa-kernel/file/5bd948503866/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c
[09:21] <_Ahti> BlackCow: There is no other way
[09:21] <BlackCow> k
[09:21] <|_ocke> _Ahti, the same way as you use limewire :P
[09:21] <xlinux_> apollon is awesome, but Ive never managed to get it working
[09:21] <Khrajin> VoltageX: Yes. that is the ideal situation. Take your partition-damaged hdd and mount it into a windows syhstem
[09:21] <|_ocke> choose a server, and search
[09:21] <|_ocke> pick a file with nmany peers,a nd download it
[09:21] <Pentalive> rohan: It did not seem to, but a lot of the other header files are found now, so it's getting better.
[09:21] <|_ocke> same idea
[09:21] <BlackCow> im going to have to do all this tomorrow
[09:21] <_Ahti> BlackCow: You could buy the commercial, erm... Crossoffice????
[09:21] <BlackCow> i need to get to sleep
[09:21] <|_ocke> except amule is opensource
[09:21] <Pentalive> find curses that is.
[09:21] <VoltageX> BlackCow: if you're comfortable opening up your system, yes you can move the drive across to another machine
[09:22] <|_ocke> uses the eDonkey network
[09:22] <|_ocke> but really
[09:22] <Khrajin> BlackCow: Look up ubcd, you'll have to compile one. You'll need a Win XP disk too.
[09:22] <|_ocke> just register for albumbase.com
[09:22] <crimsun> rohan: it can be fixed [to add jack sense in the driver] 
[09:22] <xlinux_> anyone ever managed to get apollon working??
[09:22] <|_ocke> and get full albums with no risk of bullshit windows malware
[09:22] <rohan> crimsun: can i help fixing it ?
[09:22] <r4nge> i'm currently using 6.10 and wanted to upgrade my GNUPG to latest release, i notice that there is no ubuntu package for the latest release but for 7.04 there is, is this what i should expect if i decide not to upgrade evrytime a new ubuntu is released?
[09:22] <_Ahti> |_ocke: Ah, i guess i'll try that... I always got my quick music fix from LimeWire :D
[09:22] <|_ocke> nah individual songs are a waste of time anyhways
[09:22] <BlackCow> yeah ill try fixing it
[09:23] <|_ocke> why would you want to hear something you've already heard a million times on the radiop
[09:23] <BlackCow> man this really sucks tho
[09:23] <crimsun> rohan: yes, you need to provide /proc/asound/card0/codec* contents in these scenarios:
[09:23] <naoise> how do i change default applications
[09:23] <RAOF> r4nge: Yup, exactly.  New ubuntu = newer versions of everything (new versions generally == annoying bugs fixed :))
[09:23] <Khrajin> BlackCow: Messed up partitions are no cake-walk if you want to get your stuff back, it takes time and effort.
[09:23] <|_ocke> when you can get it along with all the songs that will never get played because they arent designed for the minute intellect of the mkasses
[09:23] <BlackCow> i actually dont have a lot of time
[09:23] <crimsun> rohan: 1) both headphones (nothing plugged in) and speakers muted
[09:23] <Khrajin> BlackCow: In what regard?
[09:23] <|_ocke> get the whole album and youll hear the stuff they really care about
[09:23] <BlackCow> im going to a LAN party this weekend
[09:24] <naoise> sometimes my audio icon is pretty and sometimes it is ugly when i change the volume...WHY?
[09:24] <crimsun> rohan: 2) both headphones (plugged in) and speakers muted
[09:24] <BlackCow> so it may be faster to reformat
[09:24] <BlackCow> and just accept the few things I lost
[09:24] <naoise> and HOW do i change default applications????
[09:24] <predaeus> !language
[09:24] <the-trav> hi gang, I'm looking for some software for my media center machine.  Currently I'm looking for something VNC like
[09:24] <crimsun> rohan: 3) headphones (plugged in) unmuted but speakers muted
[09:24] <Khrajin> BlackCow: Honestly... Buy a new hdd and put the old hdd on backburner as a project
[09:24] <BlackCow> my website is backed up on my server so that won't hurt to badly
[09:24] <the-trav> I want to be able to have it play movies on the projector but control it via the network
[09:24] <VoltageX> anyway I';m out
[09:24] <the-trav> anyone got any recommendations?
[09:24] <r4nge> RAOF: hmm, perhaps i should take a look at debian, i dont want to have to upgrade my server with every ubuntu release
[09:24] <|_ocke> what FS is the dead drive?
[09:24] <|_ocke> is it windows?
[09:24] <|_ocke> ntfs?
[09:24] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:24] <crimsun> rohan: 4) headphones (not plugged in) unmuted but speakers muted
[09:24] <Khrajin> |_ocke: talking to me and BlackCow?
[09:24] <BlackCow> nah, ive got everything backed up its just outdated
[09:24] <mboman> the-trav: MythTV?
[09:24] <|_ocke> yes
[09:25] <crimsun> rohan: 5) headphones (plugged in) muted but speakers unmuted
[09:25] <the-trav> mboman, googleing for it, thanks'
[09:25] <Khrajin> |_ocke: BlackCow used g... something in 6.06 to adjust partition between his ubuntu and vista partitions and gheyed himself.
[09:25] <|_ocke> load up a livecd of a recebnt linux distro, and mount the 'dead' drive
[09:25] <|_ocke> used gparted?
[09:25] <Khrajin> Yeah that.
[09:25] <RAOF> r4nge: Indeed.  You might want debian, but unless you use Unstable, you'll be generally getting *older* versions :)
[09:25] <mboman> the-trav: I use it with a remote control, but I also have a VNC connection setup for it
[09:25] <|_ocke> waht he tried to resize it or something?
[09:25] <Khrajin> yes
[09:26] <danny3793> RAOF: go to effects please :P
[09:26] <BlackCow> this isn't the first time ive owned myself
[09:26] <|_ocke> gparted can handle resizing ntfs partitions no prob as long as it was a recent version
[09:26] <Khrajin> It was an older one
[09:26] <|_ocke> it just probablty messed up the boot partition so you cant boot winjdows
[09:26] <r4nge> well i dont really see a need to update my ubuntu 6.10 server, but in order to update my packages i would need to go to 7.10
[09:26] <r4nge> 7.04
[09:26] <the-trav> well, totem works fine as a media player, it's the remote control part that I'm after
[09:26] <|_ocke> just run linux, mount the dead partitionj, and see what you can view
[09:26] <|_ocke> and copy
[09:26] <mboman> BlackCow: as long as you learn something from it it's not wasted time. I crashed my installation so much in the beginning so I had to re-install at least once a week..
[09:26] <Khrajin> BlackCow: try that.
[09:26] <|_ocke> do yuou know how to do that shit?
[09:26] <Pentalive> Still on Make calcula.c "curses.h no such file or directory"
[09:26] <|_ocke> er stuff
[09:27] <RAOF> r4nge: Yes, indeed.  It's not a release if you keep adding new stuff to it :)  (And debian releases are the same, I believe)
[09:27] <Khrajin> |_ocke :P
[09:27] <fierycleric> my laptopt wont sleep when the lid is closed.... any ideas? seems to  be this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-power-manager/+bug/37626

[09:27] <RAOF> r4nge: Yes, so you have even *older* packages :P

[09:27] <|_ocke> not audiocity
[09:27] <r4nge> so i dont need to update my entire system in order to get a new package
[09:28] <RAOF> Pentalive: So install libcurses5-dev (or whatever it is)
[09:28] <mboman> codename: Audacity even: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
[09:28] <BlackCow> do u think I could at least acess files on the hard drive if I put it in another computer?
[09:28] <|_ocke> Khrajin, ls /dev/hd*
[09:28] <|_ocke> that will; list all available partitions
[09:28] <mboman> |_ocke: yeah yeah, I spell like a POS
[09:28] <RAOF> r4nge: But you would, wouldn't you?  Unless your running debian unstable, you'll have a released version that doesn't get new packages.
[09:28] <Khrajin> BlackCow: You'll likely have a better chance to view the files in a linux OS than Window
[09:28] <Khrajin> s
[09:28] <|_ocke> the one you're looking for should be hda? or hdb? where? is a number
[09:29] <|_ocke> sudo mkdir /media/windows
[09:29] <mboman> |_ocke: another way is to do 'cat /proc/partitions'
[09:29] <BlackCow> hm, i currently don' t have linux on another machine
[09:29] <|_ocke> sudo mount /media/windows /dev/hd??
[09:29] <BlackCow> but i have one that dosnt do much that I can put linux on
[09:29] <|_ocke> it should detect the partition type if it is the right one
[09:29] <Khrajin> BlackCow: Livecd, DSL, Knoppix etc
[09:29] <r4nge> RAOF: i assumed that for example Debian is at 4.0, while 4.0 is stable (which should be for a while), packages will be updated for it, so i'll be able to update gnupg for example until next Debian is released
[09:29] <SuperQ> |_ocke: other way around
[09:29] <|_ocke> then cd /media/windows
[09:30] <|_ocke> ls
[09:30] <|_ocke> er yeah
[09:30] <SuperQ> mount device mountpoint
[09:30] <SuperQ> :)
[09:30] <|_ocke> mount /dev/hd?? /media/windows
[09:30] <crimsun> rohan: whichever of Front, Surround, or Center is it.
[09:30] <the-trav> ok, so I guess now I'm looking at how to set up my media player with a VNC server
[09:30] <crimsun> rohan: it is, even.
[09:30] <RAOF> r4nge: No, that's not the way it works.  Packages *don't* get updated, otherwise it's not a release.  New packages break new things :)
[09:30] <the-trav> is VNC server/listener free software?
[09:30] <|_ocke> i dont check these things as im spitting out advice hehe
[09:30] <regius> Hi! How do I install realplayer in ubuntu Feisty
[09:30] <BlackCow> well anyway gg for me im going to sleep
[09:30] <r4nge> RAOF: whereas if Ubuntu releases a new stable every six months, i have to upgrade every six months in order to update packages i currently have
[09:30] <mboman> the-trav: yes
[09:30] <|_ocke> what do you think i am? heh
[09:30] <the-trav> awesome
[09:30] <BlackCow> lol, my first adventure into linux and I walk out with a hosed system
[09:30] <BlackCow> fun fun
[09:30] <mboman> the-trav: both server and client has free (Free/Libre) versions
[09:31] <the-trav> is it in the ubuntu package manager?
[09:31] <RAOF> r4nge: Similar to Ubuntu.  People who run Etch (4.0) will have Gnome 2.16 for the entire life of etch.
[09:31] <BlackCow> but thanks for your help
[09:31] <mboman> the-trav: yes, just search for VNC
[09:31] <the-trav> sweet, thanks mboman
[09:31] <the-trav> hmm
[09:31] <QuixoticJ> hi im new user i just installed wine for first time and ran winecfg to see what it does. havent run anything else in wine before. it says wine: creating configuration director '/stuff/stuff/.wine'... and its just sitting there. How do i know if it is done or if it is frozen etc ?
[09:31] <r4nge> RAOF: but if Gnome was updated while Etch was stable, wouldn't an updated package be released for it?
[09:32] <the-trav> my laptop won't always be running ubuntu though, are there free winxp clients? what about osX (my girlfriend has a macbook)
[09:32] <RAOF> r4nge: *No*.  Because then Etch wouldn't be a release :)
[09:32] <r4nge> RAOF: hmm, i think i understand
[09:32] <Ademan> anyone know of a md5sum program for osx?  i can't seem to find one
[09:32] <RAOF> r4nge: Gnome has *already* been updated, it get's updated every 6 months. (Hence the Ubuntu release cycles) :)
[09:32] <mboman> r4nge: Debian takes configuration management to the extreme
[09:33] <r4nge> RAOF: what puzzles me is that say for example 7.04 was just released and let's say that a major vulnerability was found in gnupg or some other sensitive app, you would be stuck with that vulnerable app until the next ubuntu release (if using packages exclusively)
[09:34] <RAOF> r4nge: No, that's not true.  There'd be a fixed package in the feisty-security repository.
[09:34] <kadakas> Can anyone recommend me a good application for keeping a private daily+monthly journal for myself ?
[09:34] <mboman> r4nge: no, security fixes are always addressed
[09:34] <predaeus> ! realplayer | regius
[09:34] <ubotu> regius: 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
[09:34] <r4nge> ahh, security is addressed but new features, etc are left for the next release
[09:35] <mboman> kadakas: any text editor of choice?
[09:35] <sapumal_> kadakas: mediawiki
[09:35] <RAOF> r4nge: Packages get security fixes always, and (simple) bugfixes generally.  But never (well, almost never) by using a new upstream version.
[09:35] <kadakas> mboman: it should have a calendar and a search feature
[09:35] <QuixoticJ> hi can someone help me figure out if my wine is working. I ran winecfg in a terminal and it says creating configuration director /directory names/.wine but it looks like its just sitting on that spot. I'm not sure if it froze or if it is still working or if it finished.
[09:35] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, if it gives you a new prompt it is done
[09:35] <kadakas> it should be an application running on ubuntu, not from a webserver
[09:35] <mboman> kadakas: any blog software then
[09:35] <|_ocke> type ls and press enter
[09:35] <r4nge> RAOF: thanks for clearing it up
[09:35] <kadakas> i dont want to publish it
[09:36] <|_ocke> if it give you a list of files and dirs its fine
[09:36] <RAOF> r4nge: You might want to ask jdong and the backports team to backport the package you're after, though.
[09:36] <mboman> kadakas: just keep it private
[09:36] <Khrajin> What software should I use to use my USB TVTuner?
[09:36] <kadakas> its only for my eyes :p
[09:36] <mboman> kadakas: ie: password protect the site or keep it hosted on localhost
[09:36] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, do you have a simple exe ready to run?
[09:37] <QuixoticJ> How can i msg you with the red title also? sorry new here
[09:37] <_Ahti> QuixoticJ: Not sure, but you should be able to create one without hassle just by running something random like "wine cmd", etc 0_0 works for me anywayt
[09:37] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ,  get this file
[09:37] <|_ocke> to your home dir
[09:37] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke can I do it with a cd in the drive?
[09:37] <|_ocke> yeah
[09:37] <|_ocke> but lets do a simple program first
[09:38] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke actually allow me one more to download the exe for the more crucial app.
[09:38] <|_ocke> did the file transfer show up
[09:38] <|_ocke> the file im sending you is 'progress quest'
[09:38] <|_ocke> basically an rpg that you do nothing in but gain levels by letting the bars fill up
[09:38] <Khrajin> lol |_ocke what level are you?
[09:38] <|_ocke> Khrajin, 40
[09:38] <QuixoticJ> _ahti i ran wine cmd and it just went back to the wine creating configuration directory thing again
[09:38] <Khrajin> :) 56 here.
[09:39] <rohan> crimsun: i am preparing the pastes now. shall i attach it to the bug report ?
[09:39] <Khrajin> How did you get PQ to run in ubuntu?
[09:39] <QuixoticJ> _ahti is it suppose to take a while? my computer isnt too slow so I'm curious how long this should tkae.
[09:39] <|_ocke> Khrajin, havent ran it in a couple weeks though
[09:39] <|_ocke> Khrajin, simple
[09:39] <crimsun> rohan: yes, please.
[09:39] <|_ocke> wine progressquest.exe
[09:39] <|_ocke> or whatever the exe is
[09:39] <Khrajin> |_ocke: Simple? Is that the program?
[09:39] <|_ocke> no
[09:39] <|_ocke> i mean it is simple
[09:39] <|_ocke> yopu run 'wine progressquest.exe'
[09:40] <Khrajin> ahhh ok ty
[09:40] <_Ahti> QuixoticJ: Shouildnt take more than a few secs, HOW EVER.. It should've created a .cfg file by now
[09:40] <|_ocke> er 'wine pq.exe'
[09:40] <Khrajin> Ty |_ocke. :)
[09:40] <_Ahti> QuixoticJ: So just ge your favourite windows aps and shoot away
[09:40] <QuixoticJ> _ahti I'm assuming it created it already but the terminal dosent seem to have changed so im wondering if maybe it did not work properly.
[09:40] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, did you not see the file i was trying to send you?
[09:40] <danny> This conversation would be entertaining if wine wasn't in his PATH ;-)
[09:40] <Khrajin> |_ocke, how powerful is wine?
[09:41] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, if it gives you another prompt it worked
[09:41] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke No i did not I am new at linux / irc so maybe I don't have that open?
[09:41] <|_ocke> Khrajin, it can run WoW at about 10-15% better framerate than an equivalent windows box :P
[09:41] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke it does not give me another prompt it just sits there should I assume something is wrong?
[09:41] <magnetron> Khrajin: wine is powerful enough to run Wow and CS
[09:41] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, what irc client? xchat?
[09:41] <Khrajin> |_ocke =o, what servers are yo uguys on?
[09:41] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke yes x chat irc
[09:42] <sapumal_> X-Chat
[09:42] <_Ahti> QuixoticJ: Just get your windows apps you wanted to run in the first place and test it.. It'll re-try to configure wine again ANYWAY if it didn't get it the first time you tried it
[09:42] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, click window-> file transfers
[09:42] <neil> What IM do you want?
[09:42] <|_ocke> now you should see 'pq6-2.zip waiting
[09:42] <|_ocke> cliock it and press accept
[09:42] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke I see nothing in file transfers. Does it make a difference to use a file you send if what I run still says same thing creating config directory
[09:42] <Khrajin> What is the best way to go about getting ATI drivers that will support 3d?
[09:43] <|_ocke> it is entirely independent
[09:43] <crdlb> Khrajin: what ati card?
[09:43] <|_ocke> Khrajin, with fglrx drivers
[09:43] <Khrajin> crdlb: Ati Radeon Mobility 1400
[09:43] <|_ocke> er
[09:43] <crdlb> Khrajin: ubuntu feisty?
[09:43] <|_ocke> aiglx or whatever
[09:43] <Khrajin> crdlb: Aye.
[09:43] <neil> What instant softwares do you use?
[09:43] <crdlb> Khrajin: system>administration>restricted manager
[09:43] <crdlb> check the box
[09:43] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, do you see anything in the file transfers box?
[09:44] <|_ocke> 'uploads and downmloads'
[09:44] <Khrajin> crdlb: =x i'm not on it right now, should I swap real quick?
[09:44] <|_ocke> qbasic haha
[09:44] <qbasicjedi> OK, how do I make a new partition?
[09:44] <|_ocke> my first programming language
[09:44] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke no I do not.
[09:44] <|_ocke> qbasicjedi, run gparted
[09:44] <crdlb> Khrajin: swap?
[09:44] <bobslaede> qbasicjedi: try gparted
[09:44] <qbasicjedi> Thanks
[09:44] <qbasicjedi> Ill go do that
[09:44] <Khrajin> crdlb: Windows / Ubuntu on same system, on windows
[09:44] <rohan> crimsun: the file is ready. i am attaching it
[09:44] <qbasicjedi> I'll stay here in case I need help latter
[09:44] <Khrajin> (TV tuner.)
[09:45] <crdlb> Khrajin: just write that down then, it couldn't be simpler :)
[09:45] <|_ocke> still dont see it
[09:45] <|_ocke> hang on
[09:45] <Khrajin> crdlb: Ok continue please, or was that it/
[09:45] <crdlb> Khrajin: that was it
[09:45] <rohan> crimsun: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/109882
[09:45] <Khrajin> crdlb: What does that do?
[09:45] <crdlb> Khrajin: check the box in the restricted manager
[09:45] <crdlb> Khrajin: it installs the ati proprietary driver (fglrx)
[09:45] <|_ocke> http://locke.serveblog.net/pq6-2.zip
[09:45] <crdlb> and sets it up
[09:45] <|_ocke> get that, fecker
[09:46] <|_ocke> save it to your home dir
[09:46] <Khrajin> crdlb: Very interesting question... Can I run WoW from myh windows partition?
[09:46] <magnetron> the wine .deb is in the repositories
[09:46] <magnetron> if you want to know if someone else already tested a win32 app in wine, see http://appdb.winehq.org/
[09:46] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke it still is sitting at the creating configuration directory. How can i stop it from going on I think it is stuck there I doubt it should take this long.
[09:46] <rohan> crimsun: i am afk for some time, but irc client is open. please tell me if you need any more info :)
[09:46] <|_ocke> Khrajin, yeah, but id recommend installing it on a linux partition so it has correct and full write access to its onw files
[09:46] <Pentalive> hello, libcurses is not in "add/remove..." in the menu and apt-get does not understand what I want... anybody know the real name?
[09:46] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, ctrl|c
[09:46] <Khrajin> |_ocke: Alright... Hope I have enough room.
[09:47] <|_ocke> Khrajin, make enough :P
[09:47] <mboman> Pentalive: have you tried 'apt-cache search curses' ?
[09:47] <Khrajin> |_ocke: WoW = 6.67gB
[09:47] <|_ocke> libcurses
[09:48] <|Assassin`|> where do i find my trashbin to put it back in the bottom right lmao
[09:48] <|Assassin`|> i lost it
[09:48] <Khrajin> |_ocke: I have a 19gB partition for ubuntu, so I should be ok I think.
[09:48] <QuixoticJ> ya I guess it looks like the wine cant do anything. It just sits at the creating configuration directory and thats it. never changes
[09:48] <mboman> |Assassin`|: right-click on a panel, choose add..
[09:48] <QuixoticJ> Anyone face a problem like this before ?
[09:48] <RAOF> Pentalive: It's "libncurses5-dev".  And "aptitude search curses" would give you the answer.
[09:48] <Khrajin> What software should I use to use my USB TVTuner?
[09:49] <mboman> |Assassin`|: "Add to panel..."
[09:49] <danny> QuixoticJ: I'm sure it's a user issue. No point in blaming wine.
[09:49] <deCon> does anyone know of a OSX dock that WORKS?...ya know, doesn't bug out every few actions?
[09:49] <|_ocke> sudo apt-cache search ncurses
[09:49] <|_ocke> sudo apt-cache search libcurses
[09:49] <QuixoticJ> danny I'm not blaming wine i'm sure its a problem on my end also. I'm just seeking help for the issue.
[09:49] <RAOF> deCon: No, because it doesn't exist, sadly.
[09:49] <qbasicjedi> So what's this gparted stuff?
[09:49] <danny> deCon: OSX-like?
[09:49] <qbasicjedi> I typed it in and nothign happens
[09:49] <deCon> danny, yes
[09:49] <RAOF> |_ocke: You know, you don't need the "sudo" there.  "apt-cache search libncurses" works.
[09:49] <freeza> heh everyone wants an osx dock
[09:49] <danny> I think I might be able to find one, I heard nice reviews a while back.
[09:49] <leftcase> Kharjin: What usb tv tuner is it?
[09:49] <mboman> |_ocke: no need to be root to use apt-cache
[09:49] <danny> One sec.
[09:49] <|_ocke> qbasicjedi, sudo apt-get install gparted
[09:49] <dromer> can someony help me recompile mpd for m4a support?
[09:49] <danny> QuixoticJ: Yeah, I gottcha.
[09:49] <qbasicjedi> How large is that package?
[09:49] <|_ocke> mboman, no, but to get it after you do
[09:50] <mboman> |_ocke: and never be root unless you need to...
[09:50] <deCon> RAOF, ya..i've noticed..i keep hoping ubuntu can fully beat windows, but it just keeps slipping away from that idea

[09:53] <|_ocke> if it drops you bakc to a prompt, it has finished

[09:53] <danny> Ok cool. Troubleshooting is good.
[09:54] <QuixoticJ> maybe some sort of restart can help remedy this hang ?

[09:56] <|_ocke> or go to youtube and search monzy
[09:56] <mneptok> i just threw up into my mouth a little. did someone here just mention Automatix?
[09:56] <magnetron> !automatix
[09:56] <|_ocke> youll find it
[09:56] <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
[09:56] <|_ocke> automatix gross
[09:56] <RAOF> mneptok: Only in the context of "kill -9 dpkg"
[09:56] <|_ocke> easyubuntu works much better
[09:56] <Khrajin> Well, thanks everyone. I think by tomorrow I'll be just about set in Ubuntu, forever.
[09:56] <RAOF> mneptok: You've got that on highlight, don't you :)
[09:56] <Khrajin> Progress Quest, WoW and TV Tuner were holding me back.
[09:56] <mneptok> *NONE* of those scripts are a good idea, IMIO
[09:57] <Pentalive> /leave
[09:57] <RAOF> Maybe ubotu should just auto reply to any use of the word "automatix" :)
[09:57] <|_ocke> Khrajin, good, i havent had windows on m,y system even just in existence for like 2-3 years
[09:57] <predaeus_> in general non responding applications should be killed with   "kill -15 PID" first, not -9
[09:57] <leftcase> Kharjin: Good stuff mate - enjoy ;-)
[09:57] <|_ocke> Khrajin, all of which are either possible or have better alternatives in linux
[09:57] <vietamine> hmm, it is only music videos ?
[09:57] <Khrajin> |_ocke: I like Windows because a lot of programs are made for it, not for the product itself.
[09:57] <kangkang> hi, is there anyone know why the modules i compiled on ubuntu large than other platforms?
[09:57] <qbasicjedi> Hey, how do I mount a second had disk?
[09:57] <predaeus_> kangkang, what modules?
[09:58] <QuixoticJ> khrajin only thing holding me back is anydvd and clonedvd windows apps. Soon as I get this wine thing to work and hopefully those apps work under wine then I'm all set in ubuntu also away from windows.
[09:58] <vietamine> qbasicjedi : with mount command ?
[09:58] <dromer> !mount | qbasicjedi
[09:58] <ubotu> qbasicjedi: 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
[09:58] <Khrajin> :)
[09:58] <|_ocke> Khrajin, luckily, almost all of those programs that people use as an excuse to suppoort that POS monstrosity can be run better on linux
[09:58] <dromer> pos?
[09:58] <predaeus_> !language
[09:58] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:58] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, you do not want to run clonecd in wine
[09:58] <Khrajin> Lol yes. True. Nothing can compare, sadly, to A.D. They got a good one there.
[09:58] <kangkang> predaeus_, aufs, it's about 2.3M on ubuntu, and 156k on gentoo.
[09:58] <|_ocke> use k3b and other linux native programs
[09:58] <|_ocke> they work MUCH better
[09:58] <leftcase> Kharjin: Stick with it mate - you'll find that there is TV-Tuner stuff for linux - just have a look around the hardware compatability database for tips
[09:59] <qbasicjedi> So, how do I mount my second HD?
[09:59] <Khrajin> qbasicjedi: Man mount
[09:59] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke I would love to use the native linux apps for the dvd cloning but my father has learned the ease 1 click of anydvd/clonedvd combo on windows and will have a fit if he has to do any complicated stuff to make movie backups.
[09:59] <qbasicjedi> I knwo the moutn command
[09:59] <qbasicjedi> But what do I tell it to mount?
[09:59] <RAOF> Khrajin: Actually, mythtv should work if you want something fully loaded, or Kaffene (or even Totem, IIRC) should do DVB just fine.
 how do i use xdialog?
[09:59] <predaeus_> kangkang, I don't know what aufs is, but it looks like you linked statically on ubuntu and dynamically on gentoo or something. so libs got compiled into the binary.
[09:59] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, there are linux programs thata are jsut as easy if not easier
[09:59] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke his dvd backups and his aol have kept me from using linux for over a year its quite sad.
[10:00] <|_ocke> and work more often with more formats
[10:00] <|_ocke> aol? omg
[10:00] <QuixoticJ> yes aol
[10:00] <Khrajin> QuixoticJ: Time to test aol on wine, sadly.
[10:00] <QuixoticJ> ive had to work around my parents computer uses for years
[10:00] <|_ocke> holy crap
[10:00] <QuixoticJ> o no they not getting aol
[10:00] <QuixoticJ> ill give him his dvd software since he payed for it or at least illt ry to get it to work.
[10:00] <Khrajin> lol
[10:00] <QuixoticJ> since the app runs easy and gets the job done hasnt had a dvd it couldny copy yet. but no aol.
[10:00] <|_ocke> if they MUST use it, set up a vmware of the windows within linux and they wont know the difference
[10:00] <freeza> who was the one that wanted avant window navigator? i found an already made ubuntu .deb made for them
[10:01] <predaeus_> kangkang, try    "ldd aufs" to see what shared libraries the binary requires, I guess if it requires fewer ones then those got compiled into the module
[10:01] <Khrajin> QuixoticJ: Make a UBCD4Win cd for your parents and give them a usb drive.
[10:01] <|_ocke> plus it will keep the machien from getting permanent spyware and virus bs
[10:01] <QuixoticJ> crap if i could find a simple and powerful easy solution on linux the ni wouldnt even try to give him the anydvd/clonedvd windows apps
[10:01] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, look at k3b
[10:01] <|_ocke> i think it can do all that crap
[10:02] <QuixoticJ> khrajin I dont know what that is or means. l_ocke I need something very easy to use like 1 click straight copy taht wont get blocked by dvd protection. I mean he wants as brainless as possible. If you ever try anydvd/clonedvd combo youll see how easy it is.
[10:02] <cry0x> Don't disrespect your parents' possessions
[10:02] <predaeus_> |_ocke, please watch your language and also refrain from using abbreviations
[10:02] <danny> qbasicjedi: what is on the drive?
[10:02] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, thats what im saying
[10:02] <QuixoticJ> So if you or anyone has a good easy dvd coping solution in linux please let me know what app you use.
[10:02] <Khrajin> QuixoticJ: www.ubcd4win.com
[10:02] <kangkang> predaeus_, I try to re-compile kernel,  the same thing has happend, size of all modules is  about 500M.
[10:02] <|_ocke> k3b is more 1 click easy than any window prog ive ever seen
[10:02] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke can I find the k3b in the add/remove program thing?
[10:02] <|_ocke> and much more reliable
[10:02] <Luke9511> how do i uninstall ati drivers through the recovery console?
[10:03] <|_ocke> and in my experiencetakes about half the time to burn of any win prog
[10:03] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke I'm curious I've noticed I can right click a cd in ubuntu and it has a copy option. Will that get the job done it self for dvds?
[10:03] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, yeah, use synaptic package manage
[10:03] <|_ocke> not add/remove
[10:03] <predaeus_> kangkang, ah ok linux kernel modules. hm maybe still some option in the configs that causes different linkage or something, no idea sorry
[10:03] <vietamine> QuixoticJ : nerolinux ?
[10:03] <qbasicjedi> Which device is my second HD?
[10:03] <QuixoticJ> vietamine what is nerolinux?
[10:03] <danny> qbasicjedi: I'll tell you
[10:03] <danny> Is it plugged in
[10:03] <danny> ?
[10:03] <qbasicjedi> yeah
[10:04] <QuixoticJ> one moment please I must go away from irc for a second to look at these apps you all have recommended.
[10:04] <vietamine> QuixoticJ : nero for linux ? :)
[10:04] <danny> Someone probably has a better suggestion but you should be able to look through dmesg to find it
[10:04] <Khrajin> lol
[10:04] <danny> hda or sda
[10:04] <Khrajin> Heading out, gnight guys.
[10:04] <mboman> wacky: /usr/bin/Xdialog --msgbox "Hello World" 5 15
[10:04] <kangkang> predaeus_, thank you all the same.
[10:04] <|_ocke> nerolinux? never heard of it
[10:04] <|_ocke> but nero sucks compared to k3b
[10:04] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke what is the difference from synatpic package manager and the add/remove programs one? i used add/remove programs to install all my plugins and wine and such.
[10:04] <|_ocke> though i dont really like KDE
[10:04] <freeza> how do you remove the bottom panel in gnome? one that shows the open apps?
[10:04] <|_ocke> but k3b is essential
[10:04] <Khrajin> |_ocke why not!? =o
[10:04] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, add/remove us dumbed down and doesnt give you real access to all progs or opitions
[10:05] <|_ocke> Khrajin, cause gnome is nicer :P
[10:05] <|_ocke> and not as windowsey
[10:05] <dromer> can someone help me recompile mpd?
[10:05] <Khrajin> Khrajin: lol fine :P
[10:05] <Khrajin> gnight guys
[10:05] <dromer> to get m4a support I have to recompile it with faad2 installed, I have faad2 now, but how to recompile mpd?
[10:05] <danny> I believe dmesg | grep hda && sda should work
[10:05] <predaeus_> freeza, right click on an empty area on the panel and "remove panel" or something similar. you can re-add the application/window list to the top panel by right clicking and adding applets
[10:05] <danny> sort of determine where it is
[10:05] <freeza> predaeus, cool thx
[10:06] <predaeus_> freeza, that will remove the whole panel on bottom. the window list is just an applet
[10:06] <danny> hehe maybe not
[10:06] <danny> dmesg | grep hda
[10:06] <danny> dmesg | grep sda
[10:06] <freeza> yeah already did it
[10:06] <predaeus_> k
[10:07] <|_ocke> add/remove is stupid windows crutch, synaptic gives full access but is still windowslike, apt-get/apt-cache search gives real full control of your installed programs
[10:07] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke i looked at k3bs description in add/remove and it says its for cd coping I'm not sure it does dvd coping.
[10:08] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, i think it does
[10:09] <Zwei> Can anyone help me regarding XSane Image Scanner?  I have an HP LaserJet 1220 that has a scanner, but when I try to run XSane, it would say that there is no image device available.
[10:09] <|_ocke> QuixoticJ, get k3b and gnomebaker
[10:09] <|_ocke> bnomebaker does dvd copy for sure
[10:10] <predaeus_> QuixoticJ, there is a copy DVD option in k3b, never used it though
[10:10] <jscinoz> hey guyts
[10:10] <predaeus_> ...rip video dvd, burn dvd iso image.
[10:11] <predaeus_> are more options
[10:11] <|_ocke> k3b is an EXCELLENT and damn near flawless program as far as i can tell
[10:11] <|_ocke> its never ever failed me on any system
[10:11] <Zwei> I guess my problem's a very complicated one...
[10:12] <QuixoticJ> l_ocke have you or do you do dvd coping?
[10:12] <predaeus_> Zwei, just ask
[10:12] <|_ocke> nope
[10:12] <|_ocke> dont do dvds
[10:12] <jscinoz> I need some help with a custom conky config, i need it to display the remaining swap space, is there a way to do maths in a conky config (e.g. swapmax - swap)?
[10:12] <predaeus_> Zwei, sorry didnt see your message :-)
[10:12] <vietamine> QuixoticJ : http://ftp6.use.nero.com/software/NeroLINUX/
[10:12] <|_ocke> but im still totally confident in k3b and gnomebaker
[10:12] <Burn> hello, I'm using Ubuntu Dapper server version, I want to update php5-cgi and I get this message -> unable to create `./usr/bin/php5-cgi': Permission denied <- what can I do
[10:12] <Zwei> Heh.  Yeah.
[10:12] <hoth676> Zwei: not sure about it, but I'd say you need the appropriate kernel module lo load, and also set up the appropriate device - in /dev directory (using /dev/MAKEDEV utility perhaps). Hope this gives you some hints...
[10:12] <|_ocke> they wouldnt have the prominent positions they have in the open source world if they didnt do it
[10:13] <|_ocke> Burn, do it with sudo before the command
[10:13] <Zwei> Thanks hoth676 .  It's a start, but I'll have to try to figure it out form there.
[10:14] <Burn> |_ocke: it's with the sudo command, I'm working as root
[10:14] <IntuitiveNipple> Zwei: Is the scanner on the list of SANE-supported devices?
[10:14] <jscinoz> I need some help with a custom conky config, i need it to display the remaining swap space, is there a way to do maths in a conky config (e.g. swapmax - swap)?
[10:15] <Zwei> IntuitiveNipple: I'm not sure.  XSane won't start.  It would scan for an image device, then indicate that there is no device available.
[10:15] <IntuitiveNipple> Zwei: Sounds like that may be the problem then: Check here: http://www.sane-project.org/sane-mfgs.html#Z-HEWLETT-PACKARD
[10:15] <hoth676> IntuitiveNipple: off-topic, great name. Now don't let anyone give you shit about it. (sorry, I had to write this) Chill, man :)
[10:16] <IntuitiveNipple> hoth676: Um, people either seem to laugh, or want to suck on me!
[10:16] <hoth676> haha
[10:17] <IntuitiveNipple> The intelligent ones know it paraphrases a famous-ish programmer saying
[10:17] <Zwei> IntuitiveNipple: That list only indicates scanners.  I have an multifunction printer. :\
[10:17] <Horscht> Hi
[10:17] <IntuitiveNipple> Zwei: Same thing, you just have a scanner and printer in one case
[10:18] <|_ocke> the ceo of my ISP is named Horst
[10:19] <IntuitiveNipple> Zwei: I'd search for your device's model name and find out what the individual bits inside your device are, hardware-wise
[10:19] <Horscht> How can I change the mouse cursor in ubuntu? I tried to select a different mouse cursor theme with system -> Settings -> Mouse, but the selected mouse cursor don't work in nautilus/gnome, but in Opera for instance
[10:19] <Horscht> it doesn't work in any gtk+ app
[10:19] <|_ocke> maybe cause nautilu sucks :P
[10:19] <Horscht> thank you :/
[10:19] <|_ocke> no thjats just my opiniom
[10:20] <IntuitiveNipple> Horscht: I just tried it here with Edgy, and it changes the cursor instantly
[10:20] <|_ocke> hehe
[10:20] <Horscht> feisty here.
[10:20] <Horscht> does it have to do with me using beryl?
[10:20] <|_ocke> edgy here
[10:20] <IntuitiveNipple> What video driver are you using?
[10:20] <|_ocke> probably
[10:20] <Horscht> "radeon"
[10:20] <IntuitiveNipple> It could be... try disabling Desktop Effects
[10:20] <Horscht> the open one
[10:21] <|_ocke> oh no ati?
[10:21] <|_ocke> youre screwed
[10:21] <|_ocke> heheh
[10:22] <Horscht> why am i screwed?
[10:22] <Horscht> anyways, tried with the default window manager, and the cursor shows.
[10:22] <IntuitiveNipple> He might be hammered!
[10:22] <Horscht> so it looks like it's a beryl issue
[10:22] <IntuitiveNipple> I thought Beryl had folded back into Compiz now?
[10:23] <|_ocke> Horscht, just cause ati support has alwatys been lacking
[10:23] <joe7d6> what is linux-image-generic package? i take that linux-generic is the kernel right?
[10:24] <crimsun> joe7d6: linux-image-generic is a metapackage that's useful for ensuring your system currently has installed the latest stable kernel.
[10:25] <zouhair> hi, is there a way to start installing ubuntu from CD without having to wait all the Live CD to start?
[10:25] <crimsun> joe7d6: the actual kernel is /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.20-15-generic, which is in the linux-image-2.6.20-15-generic package.
[10:25] <freeza> zouhair, download the alternate cd
[10:25] <magnetron> zouhair: the alternate cd will do that
[10:25] <joe7d6> im new to debian based distro. which one is the kernel source?
[10:25] <zouhair> thanks guys
[10:25] <dappis> alternate cd has approximately all the programs as in live cd. it is text-based and a little bit faster
[10:26] <crimsun> joe7d6: the kernel source can be obtained by either installing the linux-source-2.6.20 package or by issuing the ``apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)'' command.
[10:26] <zouhair> ok
[10:27] <rohan> crimsun: the paste is fine ? :)
[10:27] <v3n0m> ubuntu freezes upon load after install to HD (thinking cursor), works fine from live cd, alternate install hangs midway.. ideas?
[10:27] <freeza> hmm who knew connecting to a windows shared printer in feisty could be so easy. not even windows was this easy
[10:27] <crimsun> rohan: I'm not in a position to look.
[10:27] <magnetron> freeza: how easy is it?
[10:27] <rohan> crimsun: ah, ok.. later then :)
[10:28] <freeza> magnetron: too easy
[10:28] <joe7d6> crimsun: thanks. i tried to install nvidia latest driver 1001403 in the usual way. (sh NV*) but X complained about failed module. i disabled restricted driver in the new manager tool...
[10:28] <magnetron> freeza: ok, how do you do it?
[10:28] <MmikeDOMA> anyone knows how to transfer evolution settings? copying .evolution directory doesn't do it.
[10:28] <joe7d6> now i'm back to 'nv' state. do i have to uninstall nvidia binary driver? ...
[10:29] <IntuitiveNipple> joe7d6: If you're using Feisty, be aware that when you disable the Nvidia driver in Restricted Drivers Manager, that'll stop the stand-alone nvidia drivers from loading
[10:29] <|_ocke> MmikeDOMA, you need the .evloution dir
[10:29] <|_ocke> or whateverits called
[10:29] <|_ocke> in your home dir
[10:29] <|_ocke> enable show hidden files
[10:29] <IntuitiveNipple> joe7d6: If you're getting that the solution is to check /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist and remove "blacklist nvidia"
[10:29] <|_ocke> or in terminal
[10:29] <freeza> system -> administration -> printing -> new printer -> network printer -> windows printer and rest should be self explanatory
[10:29] <|_ocke> cd (enter)
[10:29] <magnetron> MmikeDOMA: i think the separate views of Evolution has export functions
[10:29] <|_ocke> ls -a
[10:29] <joe7d6> IntuitiveNipple: thats a new thing to me. now what? ... (thinking)
[10:30] <MmikeDOMA> magnetron, I can't boot to dapper no more :) I mean, I can, but it's a fuss....
[10:30] <magnetron> freeza: that's great
[10:30] <freeza> when it asks for username and password just put the username and pass of your windows box
[10:30] <MmikeDOMA> |_ocke, i did this: cd ~; mkdir .evolution; cd .evolution; cp -av /mnt/old_home/mario/.evolution/. .
[10:30] <IntuitiveNipple> joe7d6: I wasted an entire weekend solving that :p
[10:30] <freeza> and other than you should see all pcs connected to the workgroup in the dropdown box
[10:31] <magnetron> MmikeDOMA: so basically you are making a backup AFTER upgrading
[10:31] <MmikeDOMA> |_ocke, and it copied almost 700 MB (i'm using imap, so there is a lot of cached messages), but when I run evolution, no accounts, no filters, no nothing....
[10:31] <bagrupe> joe7d6: try using envy (a script that does nvidia driver installation conveniently)
[10:31] <zouhair> oups
[10:31] <zouhair> sorry
[10:32] <MmikeDOMA> magnetron, no, I have a separate /home partition, wich I don't want to use no more (i'll format it later), and all my settings are there... and I have a backup, it's on separate disk, but I'd realy hate to restore dapper just to get my evolution settings back!
[10:32] <joe7d6> IntuitiveNipple: kudos to you :). so my binary.run installation was done in the right way. the blacklist is the only thing thats holding me back?!
[10:32] <magnetron> MmikeDOMA: ok
[10:33] <smtlaissezfaire> I've been having problems with apt-get.  The connection to security.ubuntu.com keeps timing out.
[10:33] <IntuitiveNipple> joe7d6: It could be, but I can't guarantee it. with the blacklist thing in the way, the module still reports as loading in /var/log/kern.log and dmesg but an lsmod will show nvidia isn't loaded
[10:33] <smtlaissezfaire> This has been going on for several hours now.  So is there some reason that I should not be able to run apt-get upgrade?
[10:34] <MmikeDOMA> magnetron, using evolution feels kinda like Outlook on Windows... you just can't copy the settings easily, I guess that half of the Evolution settings are in .gnome directory.... stupid gconfd, almost imitates windows registry :(
[10:34] <_Ahti> How can i tweak my internet connection on Linux 0_0' Never done it before, so i don't know
[10:34] <magnetron> _Ahti: why do you want to tweak it? doesn't it run at full speed?
[10:35] <_Ahti> magnetron: No, well... Hard to say, but something is going on
[10:35] <_Ahti> magnetron: Plus, i'm curious :D
[10:35] <smtlaissezfaire> _Ahti: What exactly do you want to tweak?
[10:36] <_Ahti> smtlaissezfaire: I'd like to give it some boost
[10:37] <Enquest> When I open a file browser window in Gnome it always opens fullscreen. How can I make it open smaller lets say 500x500
[10:37] <magnetron> _Ahti: the computer cannot communicate faster than the connection it has to the network. it is a hardware issue.
[10:37] <Madpilot> Enquest, resize it, then close the file browser. It should remember it's size then.
[10:37] <yasuo> Enquest: F11? or klick on maximaize so it de-maximizes?
[10:38] <|_ocke> MmikeDOMA, screw evolution
[10:38] <Enquest> I tryied that
[10:38] <|_ocke> get thunderbird
[10:38] <|_ocke> evolution is slow, huge, and takes foever to load
[10:38] <|_ocke> and makes other progs run slow as molasses
[10:38] <magnetron> !best | |_ocke
[10:38] <ubotu> |_ocke: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[10:38] <Enquest> I want it always opened smaller
[10:39] <IntuitiveNipple> One thing Evolution has over Thunderbird, is the ability via MultiSync to sync to PDAs easily
[10:39] <|_ocke> well duh i know, but erally, evolution is big, clunky, and slow
[10:39] <Madpilot> Enquest, de-maximize it, resize, go File->Close, then reopen. It seems to remember the last size on my machine.
[10:39] <|_ocke> IntuitiveNipple, i suppose, but i dont have a pda
[10:39] <_Ahti> magnetron: Yep, but the issue is, that... well, for example.. BitTorrent is sloooow (2kb/s) and for some funky reason my speed goes down when i try watch a video (on youtube for example)
[10:39] <magnetron> |_ocke: that doesn't solve his problem, does it?
[10:40] <|_ocke> did he mention a pda?
[10:40] <Enquest> Yes it remembers... but is it not possible to always make it open smaller
[10:40] <_Ahti> magnetron: I mean downloading files still works with normal speed... its just that.. opening websites and watching videos doesn't work as fast
[10:40] <Madpilot> _Ahti, Bittorrent speed depends on how many seeds/peers the torrent has - how many peers & seeds did your slow torrent have?
[10:40] <IntuitiveNipple> _Ahti: That sounds like a delay maybe caused by DNS resolving
[10:41] <magnetron> _Ahti: maybe you forgot to seed that bittorrent? it will make your downloads slower
[10:41] <|_ocke> Enquest, in some windowmanagers it is very easy
[10:41] <|_ocke> such as enlightenment
[10:41] <|_ocke> i dont know if gnome has it
[10:41] <|_ocke> i kinda wanna run e again
[10:41] <_Ahti> Madpilot: i know about the seed thing... But irregardless of whether theres 100s of peers or less.. its still slow
[10:42] <magnetron> _Ahti: BTW youtube limits your DL bandwith when watching their video
[10:42] <|_ocke> i haevnt run enlightenment since like.. slackware and redhat
[10:42] <|_ocke> its not like i use beryl or anything
[10:42] <magnetron> _Ahti: are you behind a firewall?
[10:42] <_Ahti> magnetron: No
[10:42] <|_ocke> irregardless.. is not a word
[10:42] <MmikeDOMA> |_ocke, yes, screw it!
[10:42] <Gnea> |_ocke: there's ebuntu
[10:42] <|_ocke> that would mean the exact opposite of what you're trying to say
[10:42] <magnetron> _Ahti: does your isp limit bittorent?
[10:43] <IntuitiveNipple> _Ahti: Could it be a routing issue - you're in Aus; maybe there's problems on the trans-pacific link?
[10:43] <|_ocke> ir(not)regardless(without matter) so irregardless == with regard for
[10:43] <_Ahti> |_ocke: Well English is my 3rd language, and i still think it is 0_0
[10:43] <|_ocke> Gnea, really?
[10:43] <|_ocke> as a distro?
[10:43] <_Ahti> magnetron: ...oh yeah... didn't think of that
[10:43] <Gnea> yes.
[10:43] <giant> #jambi
[10:43] <|_ocke> holy shit
[10:43] <|_ocke> i want it
[10:43] <Gnea> !ebuntu
[10:43] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ebuntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:43] <m0u5e> okay i have decided
[10:43] <tritium> |_ocke: language, please
[10:43] <m0u5e> even for linux
[10:43] <Gnea> oops
[10:43] <_Ahti> IntuitiveNipple: Right
[10:43] <|_ocke> oh sorry
[10:44] <m0u5e> uTorrent still beats all the other torrents
[10:44] <smtlaissezfaire> So no one knows why security.ubuntu.com would be timing out on apt-get?
[10:44] <|_ocke> i havent been in a chan that cared for so long i cant remember it
[10:44] <Gnea> tritium: he wasn't being offensive.
[10:44] <magnetron> !best m0u5e
[10:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about best m0u5e - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:44] <balbir97> how to build a ,deb file
[10:44] <magnetron> !best | m0u5e
[10:44] <premier_> hello, should I be getting usb 2.0 speeds if I'm transferring files from one external hard drive formatted in ntfs and another external hard drive in ext3?
[10:44] <ubotu> m0u5e: Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[10:44] <tritium> Gnea: I didn't say he was.
[10:44] <balbir97> i want to create a .deb file of tar ball of Apache 2.2.4
[10:44] <_Ahti> m0u5e: uTorrent is a client.. not a torrent 0_0
[10:44] <m0u5e> haha ubotu is a little defensive :)
[10:44] <kid_> i tried downloading a torrent tonight and couldnt get any peers though the torrent was apparently packed. I have just installed ubuntu though so it could be a bigger problem.
[10:44] <m0u5e> err torrent client
[10:45] <rohan> balbir97: why don't you use he apache version in repo /
[10:45] <m0u5e> did i not type that? ... oops -__-;
[10:45] <balbir97> ! how to createa .deb file
[10:45] <tritium> Gnea: fyi, we have a policy about foul language
[10:45] <|_ocke> its all good, i respect channel rules
[10:45] <balbir97> !how to create a deb file
[10:45] <v3n0m> help
[10:45] <m0u5e> yeah, but currently there are no good clients available on linux...
[10:45] <_Ahti> m0u5e: hehe :D
[10:45] <Enquest> |_ocke, enlightment is good?
[10:45] <|_ocke> i just generally dont consider such things befoer i type
[10:45] <v3n0m> ubuntu freezes after install to hd, any suggestions?
[10:45] <tritium> Thanks, |_ocke.  We just have to keep it family/work friendly.  :)
[10:45] <maarten_> join #clan
[10:45] <_Ahti> m0u5e: What about azureus?
[10:45] <maarten_> ai
[10:45] <m0u5e> _Ahtideluge and transmission seem promising, but they are slow
[10:45] <magnetron> balbir97: http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=07/02/21/1546215
[10:45] <m0u5e> _Ahti: Az is slow
[10:45] <premier_> I never got enligtenment to work correctly
[10:45] <|_ocke> Enquest, yes, especially if you have been messing with linux for a long time
[10:45] <ubuntubeginz> anyone knows of any software in ubuntu..which can look inside a folder and copy all the content in the files to one single documenet/file
[10:45] <m0u5e> _Ahti: takes up ram, sucks up cpu.... and its written in Java...
[10:46] <|_ocke> and have seen its predecessors, and enjoy modifying and customizing
[10:46] <dappis> you could test deluge: it's a lightweight bittorrent
[10:46] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: tar
[10:46] <rohan> ubuntubeginz: text files ?
[10:46] <|_ocke> enlightenment is all a bout making 'your linux'
[10:46] <_Ahti> m0u5e: Yeah, i hate the java bit too... T_T_
[10:46] <rohan> ubuntubeginz: cat * > merged_file
[10:46] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: but it really depends what you want to do
[10:46] <m0u5e> delege is still unstable
[10:46] <ubuntubeginz> rohan: yes text files..actually *.py files ...
[10:46] <m0u5e> *deluge
[10:46] <balbir97> rohan: i want to create my own, based upon my own requirement
[10:46] <_Ahti> dappis: Deluge? is it available in the ubuntu repo?
[10:46] <sputnik66> ubuntubeginz, cat * > file
[10:46] <|_ocke> you can make it look and feel however you want to (within constraints of course, but they're pretty minor)
[10:46] <dappis> nope, but you can find a prebuild .deb
[10:46] <m0u5e> _Ahti: i finally just got frustrated and downloaded uTorrent standalone exe and ran it using wine
[10:46] <IntuitiveNipple> Sounds like someone needs to write their own torrent client, seeing as all the rest as so poor
[10:47] <m0u5e> _Ahti: works pretty much the same as in XP
[10:47] <_Ahti> What is the best and hence the fastest native BitTorrent client for linux anyway?
[10:47] <dappis> http://deluge-torrent.org/
[10:47] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: or, to do it recursively: find -type f -name "*.py" -exec cat {} \;
[10:47] <pyrohotdog> _Ahti: I just use btdownloadcurses
[10:47] <rohan> maarten_: err.. wouldn't this work - cat *.py >> merged.py ?
[10:47] <tritium> !best
[10:47] <ubotu> Usually, there is no single "best" application to perform a given task. It's up to you to choose among a number of different applications, depending on your preferences, the features you require, and other factors.
[10:48] <dappis> good point
[10:48] <maarten_> rohan: that want recurse the entiry directory tree
[10:48] <_Ahti> m0u5e: Yeah i tested it on 7.04... But then i found out 7.04 was slow enough as it is, so i went back to 6.06 and am too lazy to install wine
[10:48] <Madpilot> I quite like Deluge - the unofficial Feisty package seems to work well - it'll be nice to see it in repos
[10:48] <ubuntubeginz> maarten_ : lemme try all these commands..and come back a bit later..thanks anyways.
[10:48] <sputnik66> or cat `ls -R` > file
[10:48] <_Ahti> pyrohotdog: Yeah, preferrably with a GUI
[10:48] <dappis> the diversity of programs is both a good and a bad thing in linux-world: I try to take the good parts
[10:48] <IntuitiveNipple> "fastest" torrent client isn't a criteria - sounds more like someone who's torrents are slowed down because their Share Ratio is less than 0,9
[10:48] <ssinghi> how can i make the machines in my LAN be identifiable by their hostnames? currently I can only access them using their ip address
[10:49] <IntuitiveNipple> ssinghi: Run a DNS server, or enter all client names in the /etc/hosts file
[10:49] <_Ahti> IntuitiveNipple: Well... i... don't use bittorrent a lot, so >>> :P
[10:49] <|_ocke> cat 'ls -r' will spit the direcory structure in filenames into a text file'
[10:49] <|_ocke> not the contents
[10:49] <sec_> :O
[10:49] <magnetron> ssinghi: either set up a DNS server, or edit the 'hosts' files
[10:49] <sputnik66> '
[10:49] <sputnik66> no, `
[10:49] <|_ocke> cat -r * > file maybe?
[10:49] <IntuitiveNipple> _Ahti: I don't either, mainly for moving large home-made videos to my friends
[10:50] <sputnik66> ' = "
[10:50] <ssinghi> IntuitiveNipple:, magnetron thanks
[10:50] <|_ocke> ohhhh
[10:50] <sputnik66> ` = value of
[10:50] <|_ocke> i see
[10:50] <sec_> "W: Failed to fetch http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/openssl097/libssl0.9.7_0.9.7g-5ubuntu1.1_i386.deb 400 Bad Request

[10:50] <|_ocke> cat (each filename in ls -r)
[10:50] <sputnik66> indeed
[10:50] <_Ahti> :)
[10:50] <rohan> bye bbl
[10:50] <sec_> where that file moved to?
[10:51] <|_ocke> i didnt consider the effect
[10:51] <maarten_> though that will fail if your filenames contain spaces
[10:51] <|_ocke> i was thinking cat (the output of the command ls -R)
[10:51] <|_ocke> so in that case how would you do waht i just mentioned?
[10:51] <|_ocke> besides just ls -R > file
[10:51] <sputnik66> hm maarten_, true, i didn't consider spaces
[10:52] <maarten_> |_ocke:  do what exactly?
[10:52] <|_ocke> cat the output of ls -R, so put the results of "ls -R" into a txt file
[10:52] <|_ocke> ascii file
[10:53] <sputnik66> well if you want just the directory listing then you'd just do ls -R > file
[10:53] <maarten_> well, of course ls -R > file
[10:53] <m0u5e> ahh beautiful uTorrent
[10:53] <Gnea> |_ocke: i found em: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines and actually, they took the link for ebuntu iso down, but if you check their irc channel they should be able to provide it: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Ebuntu
[10:53] <|_ocke> yes, but how would i do ut using cat
[10:53] <maarten_> ls -R | cat > file
[10:53] <m0u5e> anyone know any specific *noticeable diferences between utorrent standalone and the installed version?
[10:53] <|_ocke> im not saying to be practical, but to understand execution bettr
[10:53] <|_ocke> maarten_, ooooh duh
[10:54] <m0u5e> using wine, im assuming its better just to use the standalone, but anyone know if there actually is a difference?
[10:54] <maarten_> |_ocke: it's really powerful once you know how to use it.
[10:54] <|_ocke> i actually kinda had that in my head in relation to cat file | less
[10:55] <Gnea> ls -R --color=none > file
[10:55] <Madpilot> Anyone else run into gnome-bittorrent refusing to run more than one torrent at once?
[10:55] <|_ocke> never used it
[10:56] <|_ocke> used bittornado and azureus
[10:56] <pyrohotdog> Madpilot: Yes. Don't know how to fix it though...:(
[10:56] <Madpilot> I get "Couldn't listen, 98, 'Address already in use'
[10:56] <sputnik66> O.o
[10:56] <Madpilot> Deluge can handle multiple torrents just fine, so it's not my firewall rules, my ISP being stupid, or anything else
[10:56] <IntuitiveNipple> ubuntubeginz: How about "find /directory/ -regex '.*\.py' | xargs cat > /directory/filename.ext
[10:57] <Madpilot> pyrohotdog, you get the same '98' error?
[10:57] <MaSSaSLaYeR> how do I make partition on my computer before installing an os?
[10:57] <pyrohotdog> Madpilot: Yep.
[10:57] <maarten_> IntuitiveNipple: why do you prefer xargs, when you can do it with -exec ?
[10:58] <caner> my apache server doesnt interpret php codes help please what should i do??
[10:58] <maarten_> caner: a2enmod
[10:58] <smtlaissezfaire> caner: You probably need to enable the module
[10:58] <sokomizer> hi!
[10:58] <caner> how do i enable it??
[10:58] <MaSSaSLaYeR> how do I make partition on my computer before installing an os?
[10:58] <smtlaissezfaire> caner: Although #apache would probably know better.
[10:58] <sokomizer> I've got a problem with ubuntu 7.04
[10:58] <IntuitiveNipple> maarten_: habit I guess - I often use complex commands that exec can't handle, and when i have simpler things to do I stick with the same method
[10:58] <maarten_> caner: run a2enmod
[10:58] <Madpilot> pyrohotdog, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-btdownload/+bug/57039
[10:58] <caner> thanksss!!!
[10:59] <smtlaissezfaire> Massaslayer: You need another OS (or a boot disk)
[10:59] <Sniper> hi
[10:59] <smtlaissezfaire> caner: or look in your main apache config file
[10:59] <MaSSaSLaYeR> a normall boot disk ?
[10:59] <smtlaissezfaire> caner: If you installed through apt-get, then it should be in /etc/apache2 ...
[10:59] <caner> thanks you guyss
[10:59] <maarten_> IntuitiveNipple:  in that case, i often do | while read foo
[10:59] <pyrohotdog> sokomizer: well, let's hear it?
[10:59] <sokomizer> I want to configure ny graphics card and to adjust the resolution to 1400x900
[11:00] <smtlaissezfaire> massaslayer: Any linux boot disk should work.
[11:00] <ubuntubeginz> IntuitiveNipple: can explain wat ur code does..thanks..
[11:00] <sokomizer> I've edited the xorg.conf file with the horizontal and vertical hz
[11:00] <ubuntubeginz> wat does the regex and xargs mean...
[11:00] <IntuitiveNipple> ubuntubeginz: It searches the first directory for all files matching the -regex expression, then passes each filename to cat
[11:00] <johns^> sokomizer: you should use dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:01] <dappis> it's a good idea to make a backup before editing important settings
[11:01] <IntuitiveNipple> ubuntubeginz: There was a slight typo in what I gave you though ... the ">" should be ">>"
[11:01] <MaSSaSLaYeR> smt i will first try in virtual pc
[11:01] <dappis> like making a backup from a working conf
[11:01] <Madpilot> pyrohotdog, there's an easy fix in that bug report too, actually
[11:01] <sokomizer> johns^: thanks
[11:01] <|_ocke> man i really wanna get my alsa to work :(
[11:01] <sokomizer> now I've got another question
[11:01] <IntuitiveNipple> ubuntubeginz: Actually, ignore me, the ">" is fine :p
[11:01] <ubuntubeginz> IntutiveNipple: lets say i am in the directory oredi...is this eqaul to cat *.py > filename.txt...
[11:02] <johns^> sokomizer: probably you need to run dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg first because you edited the file manually
[11:02] <r4nge> how would i use aptitude or apt- to tell me whcih version of a particular package i have installed using commandline
[11:02] <|_ocke> i cant figure out how to make it redetect my card sine i swapped this hd to a new box
[11:02] <sokomizer> Whtn I start a session in Ubuntu, it doesn't recognize the mouse
[11:02] <|_ocke> any ideas
[11:02] <sokomizer> sometimes it works but...
[11:02] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: but if i where you, i'd start with simpler solutions. find -name "*.py" -exec cat {} \; > file   will do the trick. keep regular expressions and xargs for later
[11:02] <dappis> sokomizer: what kind of mouse?
[11:02] <sokomizer> it's a usb mouse
[11:03] <johns^> sokomizer: when you login you meen? Try another usb port. I had that same thing also btw
[11:03] <IntuitiveNipple> ubuntubeginz: Yes, effectively it is
[11:03] <johns^> a few times
[11:03] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: all the files are in the same directory? no subdirs?
[11:03] <IntuitiveNipple> ubuntubeginz: But using find, it'll search all sub-directories of the specified directory
[11:03] <sokomizer> johns^: yeah, I've tried with that, but It only works when I reboot or when I start Windows and then I go to ubuntu
[11:04] <IntuitiveNipple> ubuntubeginz: And you could control how many levels of sub-dirs it searches with -depth
[11:04] <johns^> sokomizer: weird. It went away after a few upgrades. your install is up to date?
[11:04] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: but do you plan to split this large file into seperate files later on?
[11:04] <manu__> hay alguien que escriba en espaol ?
[11:04] <maarten_> !es | manu__
[11:04] <ubotu> manu__: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[11:04] <ubuntubeginz> yeah...there are subdis also... actually i am doing documentation...for some python codes.. i was supposed to copy all the py and paste into the word doc...thats why its such a pain.
[11:05] <sokomizer> yes, I've installed Ubuntu 7.04
[11:05] <v3n0m> help!
[11:05] <johns^> from the cd? dit you do all teh updates?
[11:05] <johns^> !help > v3n0m
[11:05] <laser-> Hi! I've just switched from Windows to Ubuntu. I'm thinking about writing about it in my blog and them submitting it to Digg and this way more people will find out about Ubuntu. Any hints/suggestions please? LOL
[11:05] <sokomizer> johns^: yes
[11:05] <dappis> sokomizer: sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade
[11:06] <v3n0m> huh?
[11:06] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: you might want to have the filenames... find -name "*.py" -exec echo [11:06] <sokomizer> I will try to update another time, but I think I've made that
[11:06] <|_ocke> so no ideasw about alsa? :P
[11:06] <maarten_> will include the filename above each of the contents
[11:06] <kraut> moin
[11:06] <sokomizer> thanks anyway
[11:06] <maarten_> |_ocke: what about alsa?
[11:07] <|_ocke> i want to have it redetect my card
[11:07] <maarten_> what do you mean, redetect?
[11:07] <|_ocke> i swapped this installation (HD) into an entirely different new box (but same vidcard)
[11:07] <v3n0m> johns^: no I mean I need help from ppl -,- my ubuntu freezes upon startup
[11:07] <maarten_> |_ocke: it should work out of the box
[11:08] <|_ocke> the soundcard is the same type, ac97, but it might be slightly different chipset and probably different address
[11:08] <ubuntubeginz> maarten_ : sweet man... and one more thing.. how to find the number of lines in a file...or a group of files..
[11:08] <|_ocke> IE xmms plays but no sound comes out
[11:08] <sokomizer> what about beryl in ubuntu 7.04, is easier to install than in 6.06?
[11:08] <|_ocke> it doesnt
[11:08] <johns^> v3n0m: when does it freeze?
[11:08] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: wc -l
[11:08] <|_ocke> it worked out of the box when i installed it
[11:08] <johns^> sokomizer: yes. but you need the restricted drivers if you've got an nvidia or ati card
[11:08] <dappis> sokomizer: beryl is nice eye-candy, but it is always a risk
[11:08] <sokomizer> I know is a risk
[11:09] <maarten_> |_ocke: did you adjust the mixer settings?
[11:09] <freeza> sokomizer: i installed beryl tonight on feisty, super easy and so far sock solid
[11:09] <IntuitiveNipple> You have solid socks? :O
[11:09] <maarten_> |_ocke: is the card properly listen in /proc/asound/cards and /proc/asound/devices ?
[11:09] <sokomizer> I've installed it in 6.06 and I know that it has some important bugs but...
[11:09] <|_ocke> but this installation was pulled from a celeron 1ghz system with all differnt hardware, and slapped in a athlon xp3200+ box and booted
[11:09] <johns^> beryl runs quite well. just nog when running some games
[11:09] <freeza> but then again my graphics card has good drivers for linux
[11:09] <|_ocke> i checked mixer settings they're fine
[11:09] <sokomizer> Is compiz better than beryl?
[11:09] <johns^> no
[11:09] <maarten_> |ubuntubeginz: so, to make your find even nicer:
[11:09] <freeza> beryl has more settings
[11:09] <sokomizer> ok
[11:09] <freeza> or eyecandy if you will
[11:10] <dappis> sokomizer: check ubuntuguide.org there 7.04 and search "eye candy"
[11:10] <johns^> I use beryl because of the possibilities to manage your windows and desktops
[11:10] <|_ocke> i see V2837 in /proc/asound
[11:10] <johns^> got rid of most of the eyecandy :)
[11:10] <Lilacor> I'm having trouble getting azereus working right
[11:10] <r4nge> how can i see what version of a package i have installed, commandline
[11:11] <dappis> I installed beryl to my ubuntu feisty and it went fine. I've R9700 and r300-driver
[11:11] <Lilacor> It downloads for about a minute and then everything goes to zero
[11:11] <Lilacor> anybody know?
[11:11] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: (and i will drop in the file now, the execs get to ugly): find -name "*.py" | while read f; do echo [11:11] <maarten_> drop in the while
[11:11] <burnerx> hi folks
[11:11] <maarten_> i ment
[11:11] <v3n0m> johns^: takes awhile to load (several minutes), then it goes to the gui screen, only the cursor is seen on the orange background, the mouse position is updated very slowly on the screen when I move it, about once every 1.5 seconds, the cursor is animated, and it stays like this, I gave up after like 30-40 min of waiting
[11:11] <burnerx> !nfs
[11:11] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[11:12] <v3n0m> johns^: it works fine from the live-cd, but that is what happened after I installed it to the HD..
[11:12] <dappis> there are a little bit too much variables to say, does it work on your machine: nvidia/ati cards, ubuntu versions, open/closed drivers
[11:12] <_Ahti> Argh! The videos on YouTube load so slooow! For no apparent reason at all??? GUAHRHHRGH! I wanna watch anime and all it takes ages! My bandwidth should be fine! My connection is FINE!
[11:12] <dappis> _Ahti: you could shout to your brother to stop the warez :)
[11:12] <jasra> Greetings
[11:13] <_Ahti> I'm not using a wireless connection either!
[11:13] <jasra> Can anyone help me change my screen resolution please ?
[11:13] <v3n0m> dappis: you talkin to me?
[11:13] <_Ahti> dappis: :)
[11:13] <maarten_> |_ocke: make sure you disable ESD in your System / Sound Preferences
[11:13] <dappis> v3n0m: well, not, it was for sokomizer
[11:13] <maarten_> |_ocke: and try with aplay /usr/share/sounds/(some wave file)
[11:14] <maarten_> |_ocke: and look which devices aplay sees with aplay -l
[11:14] <mEck0> Which app are you guys using for having different wallpapers on each workspace? I have used wallpapoz for a while, but I think that its kind of slow. When I switch between workspaces, there is a delay before the new wallpapers appears. I think it should appear directly as in KDE, or when you switch workspace in Gnome without any app like this.
[11:15] <maarten_> |_ocke: and tr with aplay -D hw:CARDID,DEVICEID wavfile
[11:15] <ubuntubeginz> maarten: where and under what ..can i go and learn these type of stuff... is very interesting..
[11:15] <orbin> !fixres > jasra (read pm from ubotu )
[11:15] <maarten_> ubuntubeginz: just look for some bash programming tutorial / book
[11:15] <m0u5e> does anyone know where the default themes are stored in ubuntu?
[11:16] <jasra> thank you!
[11:16] <freeza> m0u5e: you trying to install themes?
[11:16] <m0u5e> freeza: no, just trying to install a theme for wine, so it better integrates into my desktop :)
[11:17] <ubuntubeginz> maarten: danke..man... will look into it...
[11:17] <m0u5e> freeza: do you know where the default themes like human, industrial, glider are stored?
[11:17] <freeza> one sec checking
[11:17] <m0u5e> i tried doing a search... but im finding that beagle is not very useful when I need it to be :/
[11:17] <freeza> beagle really cant find crap
[11:18] <m0u5e> yeah
[11:18] <orbin> m0u5e: /usr/share/themes IIRC
[11:18] <m0u5e> its even worse than the m$ XP search engine :(
[11:18] <m0u5e> thx orbin
[11:18] <freeza> yah there we go
[11:18] <pyrohotdog> What kind of remote would I need to control rythmbox/vlc?
[11:18] <dappis> use locate :)
[11:18] <_Ahti> freeza: Yeah, all it really does is hog your cpu
[11:19] <freeza> is there a way to make beagle act like locate?
[11:19] <_Ahti> freeza: Don't think so
[11:19] <Lilacor> how to I force azureus to use java 6?
[11:20] <_Ahti> Lilacor: Uninstall java 5 :P
[11:20] <disinterested> im trying to install torcs 1.3.0 but when i run .;/configure at the end i get lib/cpp fails sanity check is there any thing i can do to resolve this?
[11:20] <Lilacor> _Ahti: right now it is using 1.4.2 by default
[11:20] <disinterested> ./configure
[11:21] <_Ahti> Lilacor: Ah, well i don't use java apps, so...
[11:21] <r4nge> how would i update my ubuntu server edition from 6.10 to 7.04, the "Upgrade Instructions" really only explain desktop upgrading
[11:21] <_Ahti> Lilacor: My previous comment was meant as a joke, but then i realised.. that it wasn't funny T_T'
[11:21] <dappis> install sun-java6-bin
[11:21] <freeza> lol
[11:21] <igcek> helou, can anyone tell me what does this mean/how to fix it?
[11:22] <igcek> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21116/
[11:22] <Lilacor> dappis: yes but that doesn't force the applicatoin to use a different version of java
[11:22] <crdlb> r4nge: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading#head-e471fe0c514bab31d4fac24a8a8fde382e8c7aaf
[11:23] <dappis> hmmm... then you could try to uninstall old java? when there's only one version installed, it has no choice
[11:23] <ion> what irc clients u guys using in linux
[11:23] <ion> whats the best one
[11:23] <borizz> ion: i use irssi
[11:23] <predaeus_> ion: xchat here
[11:23] <maarten_> ion: i use xchat
[11:23] <Oli``> gaim! woof
[11:23] <ion> cool
[11:23] <dappis> I use x-chat-gnome, which is NOT the best I suppose, but it's good enough for me
[11:23] <borizz> ion: what do you look for in a client?
[11:23] <Lilacor> ion: xchat
[11:24] <lishengming> ?
[11:24] <ion> something with good cmds and shit
[11:24] <Lilacor> irssi is very nice
[11:24] <ion> easy to use
[11:24] <ion> quick
[11:24] <|_ocke> maarten_, its funny though, i didnt make any changes from its setup before and it was on an equivalent ac97 onboard card
[11:24] <Oli``> Does anyone know how I can work out what hd# my /dev/sdf is?
[11:24] <borizz> ion: irssi is quick, has good commands but is not really easy to use if you're new to it
[11:24] <Lilacor> irssi has great commands n' shit.
[11:24] <ion> borizz, better than bitchx
[11:24] <ion> ?
[11:25] <_Ahti> ah yeah, i'm using irssi at the moment
[11:25] <_Ahti> its great :D
[11:25] <borizz> ion: i never liked bitchx but those two are often compared
[11:25] <_Ahti> irssi still wins!
[11:25] <maarten_> |_ocke: "equivalent" is really a tricky thing with sound cards
[11:25] <ion> where can I find decent irssi scripts
[11:25] <dappis> r4nge: you could try the hard way to upgrade: 1. edit your sources.list and replace all "edgy" > "feisty" 2. run sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade && sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[11:25] <borizz> ion: irssi.org/scripts
[11:25] <maarten_> |_coke: but did you try my suggestions above?
[11:25] <dappis> continue with sudo apt-get -f install if necessary
[11:25] <r4nge> dappis: will probably go the easy way :)
[11:26] <dappis> r4nge:  it may take a while to download a couple hundred MBs
[11:26] <maarten_> |_ocke: anyway, the fact that xmms does "progress" looks like a mixer problem, or maybe even a connection problem to me
[11:26] <crdlb> dappis: that's not necessary
[11:26] <freeza> xchat rocks
[11:26] <dappis> r4nge: well, I think that is the easy (but risky) way
[11:26] <_Ahti> r4nge: You might aswell try 0_0
[11:26] <borizz> ion: i use these scripts: trackbar, usercount and wlstat
[11:26] <r4nge> dappis: i was just thinking it would be as easy as installing from aptitude
[11:26] <|_ocke> card 0: V8237 [VIA 8237] , device 0: VIA 8237 [VIA 8237] 
[11:26] <ion> ok
[11:26] <ion> thnx
[11:26] <crdlb> r4nge: you saw the link I gave you right?
[11:27] <r4nge> crdlb: yep thanks, that's prob going to be my approach
[11:27] <|_ocke> aplay wont play either hough
[11:27] <Oli``> Does anyone know how I can find what number a specific HD is? eg: /dev/sdf => hd5
[11:27] <maarten_> |_ocke: but it "finishes" after a while?
[11:27] <|_ocke> yeah of course
[11:27] <|_ocke> it plays fine, theres just no actual ouitput
[11:27] <borizz> Oli``: i think it differs per system... :(
[11:27] <r4nge> thing is i dont see "update-manager-core" as a package for edgy
[11:28] <|_ocke> im pretty sure its just addressing the wrong memory location
[11:28] <maarten_> |_ocke: double check your mixer settings. double check your connection.
[11:28] <Oli``> borizz: erk... is there no standard way to look it up?
[11:28] <maarten_> |_ocke: no channels MUTEX ?
[11:28] <|_ocke> the previous one was the same type of onboard card, but i bet its in a different memory location
[11:28] <Oli``> borizz: I need to tell grub where to install itself and I haven't a clue =(
[11:28] <r4nge> dappis: is your upgrade route the way it's always been done in previous server editions?
[11:28] <|_ocke> ive checked all the mixer settings, besides, how would they have randomly automaticallty changed when i mpoved the hard drive
[11:29] <ion> borizz, where can I get nice themes
[11:29] <borizz> Oli``: try starting grub and do "install (hd" and then press tab
[11:29] <borizz> ion: irssi.org/themes
[11:29] <ion> ok
[11:29] <maarten_> |_ocke: as i said, "equivalant" is a tricky thing
[11:29] <borizz> ion: you could've figured that one out yourself ;) i like the madcow theme
[11:29] <|_ocke> and the speakers output a little feedback when they're turned up as long as they're connected even
[11:29] <|_ocke> well.. same chipset, same card, most likely different location
[11:30] <|_ocke> possibly different revision
[11:30] <maarten_> |_ocke: the location does not matter
[11:30] <|_ocke> but not from what lspci -v tells
[11:30] <maarten_> |_ocke: the revision might.
[11:30] <maarten_> |_ocke: but to me it seems that the driver is working correctly. apart from not sounding
[11:30] <|_ocke> yeah seems to me too
[11:31] <maarten_> which module is alsa using? snd-via82xx ?
[11:31] <maarten_> (lsmod)
[11:31] <|_ocke> just nada from it, and if i plug the speakers into my mp3 player they blast loud just fine
[11:31] <|_ocke> yes
[11:31] <|_ocke> i also see snd_ac97_codec and such
[11:32] <dappis> r4nge: I'm not sure, but my way is how it can be done with only command-line interface
[11:32] <maarten_> |_coke: read http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/template.php?company=VIA&card=VIA+southbridge+AC97+audio.&chip=VIA82C686%2C+VIA8233%2C+VIA8233A%2C+VIA8235%2C+VIA8237&module=via82xx#notes
[11:32] <dappis> I'm not sure how the graphical assistant works
[11:32] <maarten_> |_ocke:
[11:33] <|_ocke> the video card certainly runs like 20 times better in this than the celeron 1ghz hehe
[11:33] <r4nge> dappis: one would think ubuntu would make it a bit easier
[11:33] <borizz> Oli``: did it work?
[11:33] <maarten_> "His suggestion was to use supply the option "ac97_quirk=0" to the snd-via82xx module."
[11:33] <maarten_> sound weird to me
[11:33] <maarten_> but try it
[11:33] <|_ocke> hmmm..
[11:33] <|_ocke> how do i do that ?
[11:33] <maarten_> |_ocke: rmmod snd-via82xx
[11:33] <maarten_> |_ocke: lsmod to make sure it got removed
[11:34] <maarten_> |_ocke: modprobe snd-via82xx ac98_quirk=0
[11:34] <Oli``> borizz: nope =(
[11:34] <|_ocke> gah
[11:34] <|_ocke> says its in use
[11:35] <maarten_> did you kill esd as i said? any applications open? xmms?
[11:35] <|_ocke> nope
[11:35] <borizz> Oli``: how bout using fdisk -l ?
[11:35] <|_ocke> maybe a volume control or something'
[11:35] <borizz> Oli``: that should list everything
[11:35] <|_ocke> htop here we come
[11:36] <|_ocke> oh i bet firefox was using it
[11:36] <maarten_> right
[11:36] <Oli``> borizz: doesn't tell me the hd# numbers
[11:36] <|_ocke> yup yup
[11:36] <Oli``> just the /dev/sdx names
[11:37] <Filthpig> Hi, I want to share an internet connection through my PC.. (I have two ethernet cards).. How do I set that up?
[11:37] <|_ocke> FATAL: Error inserting snd_via82xx (/lib/modules/2.6.17-11-generic/kernel/sound/pci/snd-via82xx.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
[11:38] <joycetick> hi, which is better VMware or virtualbox if i want to run windows XP in ubuntu?
[11:38] <borizz> Oli``: then I'm out of ideas... sorry :)
[11:38] <|_ocke> [17196492.984000]  snd_via82xx: Unknown parameter `ac98_quirk'
[11:38] <|_ocke> from dmesg
[11:38] <Gerro> joycetick: there also qemu
[11:38] <Oli``> borizz: that's fair enough -- thanks for the help
[11:39] <joycetick> Gerro: ah ok, is that good?
[11:39] <pand> Hello
[11:39] <Gerro> joycetick: sorta if you get the kqemu option working for your pc hardware, I run it on a dual core so its easy load balancing two operating systems
[11:40] <|_ocke> oh
[11:40] <pand> I'm looking for ducuments which explain how to translate GNOME documentation into other languages e.g. into Polish
[11:40] <Gerro> joycetick: its only open source emulator I know of really
[11:40] <|_ocke> k the mod loaded but still no sound
[11:41] <Lilacor> does anyone know how to update the azureus script to use a new JRE?
[11:41] <joycetick> i think wikipedia says virtualbox is open source
[11:41] <joycetick> but im probably wrong :P
[11:42] <joycetick> Gerro: thanks, il try that :)
[11:42] <vietamine> joycetick : u can add a article on wikipedia :)
[11:42] <pand> well anybody knows where I can find them?
[11:43] <Ademan> ugh, my friend managed to forget their username for their fresh fiesty install, but APPARENTLY they remember the password, is there any way they could salvage their system without a reinstall? (it's a fresh system so i don't suppose it'd be too bad)
[11:43] <Gerro> joycetick: virtualizer has limited gpl version... yeah probably no fancy tricks or kool perks to it then
[11:44] <sharadg> Ademan: did they create a new user during the installation
[11:44] <dps> HEy guys
[11:44] <dps> Can anyone tell me how to build the deb package of kernel source?
[11:44] <Ademan> sharadg: i think so, but he sorta said he wasn't sure
[11:44] <vietamine> Ademan : any capslock problem or keyb lang ?
[11:45] <Ademan> vietamine: doesn't the login screen warn if capslock is on?
[11:45] <vietamine> Ademan : depends on which login screen :)
[11:45] <Ademan> heh
[11:45] <Ademan> default gdm?
[11:45] <sharadg> he can try using root as the username from the terminal
[11:45] <Gerro> joycetick: hmm the differences it lists on wikipedia aren't really needed things not to mention its free for other version, I might give it a try but looks like they're more so aiming to knock off vnc in usage
[11:45] <cidwel> hello
[11:45] <oi_cool> #jakarta
[11:46] <Ademan> sharadg: that doesn't work does it? i just tried that myself in a tty
[11:46] <joycetick> Gerro: ok, thanks for the info
[11:46] <pyrohotdog> "QEMU acceleration layer not activated" when attempting to boot DSL from a thumb drive..?
[11:47] <dps> Guys, can anyone tell me how to build the kernel source and headers deb file?
[11:47] <cidwel> anybody knows how to share a file that i have in my desktop (ubuntu feisty) in order to copy files inside that file in a mac? I have installed nfs and selected that file for share in nfs for my mac
[11:48] <Gerro> cidwel: umm your trying to do nfs sharing with a mac to share inside a iso file?... erm.. like is there something in your water?
[11:49] <maarten_> |_ocke: sorry, i crashed
[11:49] <cidwel> no no sorry, i want to share a folder
[11:49] <erUSUL> Gerro: i think it may be a folder not a file what he is trying to share
[11:49] <Gerro> cidwel: after rereading what you said few times, are you trying to install ubuntu to a mac through nfs connection?...
[11:49] <cidwel> in ubuntu in order to make a backup of some of data of my mac
[11:50] <bullgard4> Does my Laptopcomputer or my battery have an Embedded Controller? My operating system Ubuntu 7.04 loads automatically the module i2c_ec. How to proceed to answer this question?
[11:50] <maarten_> cidwel: i would use samba
[11:50] <Gerro> cidwel: umm like try ssh then that should work
[11:50] <Gerro> maarten_: samba is for windows shares :P
[11:51] <cidwel> eeh? sorry, i repeat, i have 2 computers and in feisty i have installed nfs for folder sharing, I set a folder with nfs sharing in ubuntu
[11:51] <Gerro> cidwel: what does a mac file system look like? does it start out as C:\ or as /
[11:51] <maarten_> Gerro: why?
[11:51] <cidwel> ?? what c?
[11:51] <cidwel> is not windows
[11:51] <cidwel> i wont to use samba
[11:51] <gordonjcp> Gerro: in OS X, it's basically a Unix fs
[11:52] <gordonjcp> Gerro: pre-OS X it's entirely different ;-)
[11:52] <Gerro> just checking..
[11:52] <cidwel> i want to use nfs bc i only use linux and unix (ubuntu and mac)
[11:52] <maarten_> Gerro: samba is a perfectly good choice for sharing files between linux boxen or linux and mac
[11:52] <Ademan> plus samba sucks
[11:52] <Ademan> lol
[11:52] <Ademan> O_o
[11:52] <paddyez> hi
[11:52] <Ademan> tell that to my 3 gigs of lost data lol
[11:53] <Ademan> my fault for not backing up, but still
[11:53] <cidwel> otherwise i tried to share with samba but mac needs a key that i haven't
[11:53] <Gerro> maarten_: its built around legacy support for windows, I don't trust it :)
[11:53] <cidwel> when i try to enter in the folder in mac, using samba, i need a key that is not my root or user key
[11:53] <varka> maarten_: samba was designed to interact with smb filesystem from windows not to interact between linux-filesystems
[11:54] <cidwel> and, if i can use nfs, lets use nfs
[11:54] <cidwel> not samba
[11:54] <cidwel> samba is for windows, not for unix and linux
[11:54] <maarten_> varka: no, samba implementsthe smb protocol at both client and server level
[11:54] <|_ocke> maarten_, all good
[11:54] <maarten_> |_ocke; solved it?
[11:55] <|_ocke> nope
[11:55] <varka> maarten_: yes, and?
[11:55] <|_ocke> even with the 'ac97_quirk=0', no sound output
[11:56] <Gerro> cidwel: setup openssh server directly between the two and use one of these http://www.openssh.com/macos.html its probably lot simpler
[11:56] <coz_> I have been trying to download Rasterbator for an hour and keep getting times out, I realizw this has nothing to do with ubuntu but was hoping one of yu have the file by some slim chance ?? :)
[11:56] <Steve^> I need to open a port for bitorrent, how can I do this?
[11:56] <maarten_> varka: are you aware of the samba unix extensions ?
[11:57] <ubuntubeginz> hi guys,,, lets say i am in windows(god forbid), how can i access my linux partiions..is it possible
[11:57] <Steve^> ubuntubeginz, get an ext3 driver
[11:57] <Steve^> http://www.fs-driver.org/
[11:57] <sharadg> there is software for windows to acess ext fs
[11:58] <sharadg> do  a search :)
[11:58] <varka> maarten_: samba is a reverse engineered solution to make use of the smb protocol windows uses, but why should anybody use smb while there are native solutions to connect linux machines?!
[11:58] <jmanous> #heist
[11:59] <ubuntubeginz> Steve^: thanks man... will download and give a crack at it... :)
[11:59] <pyrohotdog> Anyone have any recommendations for a linux compatible remote control?
[12:00] <stalker_> lirc?
[12:00] <stalker_> if that's what you meant
[12:00] <pyrohotdog> I meant the remote control itself. :)
[12:01] <sven_> I formatted a usbdisk and now I cannot write to it, chown and chmod won't work...
[12:01] <joycetick> Does anybody know how to start winXP (on second partition of first hdd) with qemu
[12:01] <private_meta> hi...
[12:01] <maarten_> varka: i had the impression that samba is an easier solution to share between linux/macosx , but i might be wrong. anyway, until nfs4, nfs really was unusable in certain environments
[12:02] <DarkClown> anyone know if there`s been any changes in the install proses of mpd (Music Player Daemon) with the release of feisty fawn?
[12:02] <|_ocke> grrr
[12:02] <|_ocke> stupid alsa
[12:02] <sven_> can anyone help me with write access to a usb disk that I just formatted to ext3?
[12:03] <sven_> no
[12:03] <_Ahti> Oh yeah! Since Mplayer was removed from the 6.06 repos, could it be possible for me to add the feisty repos aswell in order to get those packages not available for dapper??? 0_0'
[12:03] <maarten_> varka: like, any user with root access on his local machine being able to access any file owned by any user on the nfs server.
[12:04] <maarten_> varka: that's why i replaced nfs with samba for file sharing, even with linux clients
[12:05] <jscinoz> hey guys
[12:05] <sven_> maarten_ do you know how I can get write access on a usb disk that I formatted to ext3?
[12:05] <maarten_> varka: nfs4 might have solved this issue though
[12:05] <jscinoz> the UUID of my swap partition has changed and i need to reconfigure some settings so that it is set up correctly, what file should i edit?
[12:05] <varka> maarten_: ok, thats a point
[12:05] <private_meta> i'd need help with... i have a problem with the gnome-keyring-manager and my wireless lan connection... 1. i want that my wlan-settings (password/certificate) for a certain wlan connection are remembered, and 2. i want that gnome-keyring-manager-password to be deactivated... i know these two are somehow connected, but can someone tell me what to do there, 'cause i didn't find anything
[12:05] <orbin> _Ahti: from what i hear it's generally a bad idea to mix.
[12:06] <maarten_> sven_: can you write as root?
[12:06] <maarten_> sven_: is it mounted ?
[12:06] <_Ahti> orbin: Yeah? *sigh* i'd rather not build it from source, but i guess i have no choice 0-0
[12:07] <sven_> maarten_: yep /media/usbdisk
[12:07] <maarten_> sven_: can you sudo touch /media/usbdisk/foo
[12:07] <sven_> maarten_: I can write as root
[12:08] <anathematic> hey i want to setup my ubuntu server as sort of a gateway thing between my computers on the network and my internet connection, for this i need to setup a dns server on my ubuntu box and go from there right?
[12:08] <maarten_> sven_: well, i guess it's just permissions.
[12:08] <sven_> maarten_: I know
[12:08] <maarten_> sven_: sudo chown sven /media/usbdisk/
[12:08] <redeeman> anyone know where ubuntu keeps the gdm/xdm sessions for the login manager?
[12:08] <sven_> maarten_: tried that
[12:08] <redeeman> the .desktop entries descriping gnome, kde
[12:09] <maarten_> sven: sorry, no idea
[12:09] <sven_> maarten_: I can make a directory or file, but I cannot do it in Nautilus
[12:09] <sven_> maarten_ not in the file browser
[12:10] <maarten_> sven_: even in directories with the right permissions? thats strange...
[12:10] <sharadg> i guess there is some issues in Nautilus
[12:10] <magnetron> anathematic: i think you want to set up a NAT with firestarter, really
[12:10] <private_meta> does anyone know what i can do with my problem?
[12:10] <maarten_> sven_: well, can't help you.. just use the command line. it's faster anyway :-)
[12:10] <anathematic> magnetron:  okies i'll look into it now
[12:10] <sven_> maarten_: yeah :p, still weird though
[12:11] <maarten_> gotto go.
[12:11] <maarten_> bye
[12:11] <paddyez> is "Feisty Fawn" as unstable as "sid" ?
[12:12] <_Ahti> Argh! This is seriously starting to tick me off! My download rate is jumping up and down! How can i, erm, "stabilize" it? I'm pretty sure theres nothing wrong with the router/modem/ISP/connection per se...
[12:12] <rbrunhuber> Can anybody help me with debugging/testing cronjobs?
[12:12] <espen> sven_: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/2436
[12:12] <Gerro> _Ahti: what sort of download is it? if its a torrent then that is normal
 what do you wanna do ?
[12:13] <Doctor_Zoidberg> the download speed is dependant on where it's coming from too
[12:13] <Doctor_Zoidberg> and how busy that pc is
[12:13] <Gerro> _Ahti: oh and stop using the internet when you go to download, you request things you *should* have received so the ftp server slows down for you and stays slowed
[12:13] <Doctor_Zoidberg> how much of the bandwidth is being used, or limited
[12:13] <_Ahti> Gerro: Well, its a "normal" download of a video... at the moment its from YouTube
[12:13] <rbrunhuber> sharadg: I have a script lying in /etc/cron.hourly but it does not seem to be executed.
[12:14] <MerlinZShell> hello
[12:14] <Doctor_Zoidberg> maybe a lot of users currently on youtube
[12:14] <Doctor_Zoidberg> maybe 10mins from now it'll ease off a little
[12:14] <Gerro> _Ahti: flash video? 32 or 64 bit, what browser? what flash? is it ran under wine? Do you connect through proxy?
[12:15] <Gerro> _Ahti: are you using a browser plugin?
[12:15] <_Ahti> Doctor_Zoidberg: Well its been going on for the whole day
[12:15] <Doctor_Zoidberg> maybe a lot of users sharing your ISP online right now
[12:15] <Doctor_Zoidberg> domestic dsl tends to be a 50:1 ratio....ur 1 of 50 sharing the same pipe
[12:15] <_Ahti> Gerro: Yes a flash video. 32 bit, Firefox, flash 9, no wine and no proxy... (if i had a proxy i'd been able to fix it by now)
[12:15] <pyrohotdog> I have an IR wireless mouse, would it be possible to use the reciever with LIRC and a remote from an old TV?
[12:16] <Doctor_Zoidberg> maybe 45 are on now
[12:16] <Doctor_Zoidberg> so ur share is a lot more limited
[12:16] <juice_> is there any way to change brightness in standard ubuntu installation? (some tool somewhere to control it, i can't find it)
[12:16] <rbrunhuber> sharadg: Still there?
[12:16] <monzie> hi all
[12:16] <_Ahti> Doctor_Zoidberg: Yeah, but the funny thing is... i just installed a few apps with aptitude.. and the download rates were normal
[12:16] <strog_>  have a problem with the apt-get install command, when i want to install vlc mediaplayer i get the error message that the package isnt there
[12:16] <sharadg> looking
[12:17] <monzie> i just installed mysql on my Ubuntu 7.04 x64
[12:17] <monzie> how do i get mysql to start?
[12:17] <albert> hi, can anybody tell me, how i access these pages? http://www.dillo.org/cvs.html
[12:17] <Doctor_Zoidberg> only the ISP knows who's online at any given time, normal users dont
[12:17] <|_ocke> mysqld
[12:18] <_Ahti> Ah yeah, about VLC Player Firefox plugin... How come theres no sound when i try watching a .mpg movie???
 what does crontab -e say
[12:18] <Doctor_Zoidberg> i'd suggest just keeping an eye on it over a few days, it will fluctuate with all sorts of reasons
[12:18] <stalker_> sudo /etc/init.d/mysql start
[12:18] <juice_> is there any way to change brightness in standard ubuntu installation? (some tool somewhere to control it, i can't find it), preferably only for video output
[12:18] <emxsi> any reference on installing ubuntu-server from a network using a floppy net bootdisk?
[12:18] <strog_> i have a problem with the apt-get install command can some help me here
[12:18] <adrianc> has anybody tried installing the 64 bit 7.04 version on a dual core AMD 64 bit processor? if so does it work for you?
[12:18] <Doctor_Zoidberg> juice_ you could try the buttons on the front of your monitor
[12:18] <Doctor_Zoidberg> i have a quick setting for "games" or "text"
[12:18] <juice_> Doctor_Zodberg: ;) got the maxed already
[12:18] <monzie> adrianc: i have AMD turion 64 based laptop
[12:19] <emxsi> also which is better from your experience... apt-proxy or apt-cache? thanks.
[12:19] <monzie> and yes, it works
[12:19] <rbrunhuber> sharadg : It 's completely empty file
[12:19] <_Ahti> Doctor_Zoidberg: Yeah, its done that... i'm monitoring my bandwidth with "bmon" and the rates are just hopping up and down T_T
[12:19] <juice_> Doctor_Zoidberg: ;) got them maxed already
[12:19] <sharadg> this is the file where we specify cronjobs for users
[12:19] <Doctor_Zoidberg> try the theme manager then
[12:19] <sharadg> in the cron format
[12:19] <adrianc> the install hangs for me, I think it could be related to my wireless network card
[12:20] <Doctor_Zoidberg> see if you can find a brighter theme for your windows etc
[12:20] <juice_> Doctor_Zoidberg: but i dont think i will find seperate video settings there, will i ?
[12:20] <sharadg> rbrunhuber: can you try using that
[12:20] <rbrunhuber> sharadg : Don't think so. All tasks in cron.daily get executed
[12:20] <strog_> juice_: can you help me a sec?
[12:20] <Doctor_Zoidberg> dunno, maybe your driver settings
[12:20] <juice_> strong_: me? how ?
[12:21] <strog_> i have a problem with the apt-get install command
[12:21] <juice_> Doctor_Zoidberg: yes, but where are mesa brightness configuration tools...
[12:21] <strog_> when i want to install the vlc mediaplayer i get the message that the package isnt there
[12:21] <Doctor_Zoidberg> i dont know, sorry
[12:21] <juice_> strong_: try to add universe and multiverse then maybe in Synaptic
[12:22] <kbrooks> uh hello
[12:22] <kbrooks> is there a theme in ubuntu 7.04 that has a coloured. not a off white progress bar
[12:22] <rbrunhuber> sharadg: I think i just found it: There was no shebang line in the script
[12:22] <sharadg> :)
[12:22] <Doctor_Zoidberg> kbrooks, you can adjust any part of any theme to suit your needs
[12:23] <strog_> can someone help me here?
[12:23] <kbrooks> Doctor_Zoidberg: how?
[12:23] <rbrunhuber> sharadg : this was the only visible difference to all other scripts.
[12:23] <sharadg> but as a matter of fact.. i think you can start maintaining your own cron jobs using crontab -e.. thats what I do
[12:23] <juice_> strog_: i think i already did?
[12:23] <sharadg> its pretty simple
[12:23] <Doctor_Zoidberg> after you select your theme, click on customize....then the color tab
[12:23] <juice_> strog_: if you have Feisty 7.04 just run Synaptic, then click Repositories in Settings, and then select  Softwary restricted by law or something
[12:23] <juice_> strog_: then click reload in main window of synaptic and then try to install it
[12:24] <kbrooks> Doctor_Zoidberg: where do i select a theme tho
[12:24] <blind> Okay, I need some help. Whenever I boot my computer with my webcam plugged in, I can't operate my webcam. When I unplug it, khubd runs my computer up to 100% cpu usage, and i have no usb usage. How can I fix this?
[12:24] <rbrunhuber> sharadg : I know but i'm not comfortable with the cron syntax and i just want this script to be executed every hour.
[12:24] <Doctor_Zoidberg> system>>preferences>>theme manager
[12:24] <kbrooks> rbrunhuber: try at
[12:24] <juice_> strog_: besides, maybe you are typing this vlc package wrong, try to search for in also in synaptic
[12:24] <strog_> juice_: all of them didnt work
[12:24] <Doctor_Zoidberg> theme* not theme manager
[12:24] <Merijn> what's the name of the openssh package for apt-get?
[12:24] <juice_> strog_: what are you typing?
[12:24] <IntuitiveNipple> blind: It sounds as if your webcam model isn't properly supported
[12:24] <kbrooks> sharadg: have you heard of at ?
[12:25] <strog_> juice_: just vlc
[12:25] <juice_> Merijn: openssh-server ?
[12:25] <strog_> both in the console and the synamptic
[12:25] <Merijn> thanks
[12:25] <juice_> Merijn: and openssh-client ?
[12:25] <didwah> exit
[12:25] <juice_> Merijn: no problem
[12:25] <blind> IntuitiveNipple: when I plug it in after my computer's turned on, it operates fine.
[12:25] <strog_> juice_: is it becuase i have the feisty dist?
[12:26] <Doctor_Zoidberg> you can mix and match parts of themes, like the colour scheme of mist, with the icons from la ora and the window borders from redmond etc
[12:26] <juice_> strog_: try sudo apt-get update and then apt-get install vlc
[12:26] <juice_> strog_: no, i have feisty and i can do apt-get install vlc without problems
[12:26] <kbrooks> Doctor_Zoidberg: okay
[12:26] <IntuitiveNipple> blind: Hmm, sounds like a driver issue then... have you checked with the maintainers of the webcam drivers?
[12:26] <strog_> juice_: didnt work
[12:26] <Doctor_Zoidberg> installing art manager gives you access to many more themes
[12:26] <sharadg> kbrooks ?
[12:26] <kbrooks> Doctor_Zoidberg: all i want is a progress bar colour. that is all. nothing else.
[12:26] <Doctor_Zoidberg> as well as logins, screensavers etc
[12:26] <kbrooks> sharadj: nm
[12:27] <rbrunhuber> kbrooks : thanks for the tip. But cron.hourly has to work too.
[12:27] <juice_> strog_: anyways, you must have problems with repositories if you dont have vlc it seems. change the server in synaptic configuration to something other
[12:27] <kbrooks> strog_:
[12:27] <kbrooks> !universe
[12:27] <blind> IntuitiveNipple: no, I haven't. I just plugged it in when I got it, and it worked so i didn't question it. im not even sure who makes the drivers
[12:27] <kbrooks> !multiverse
[12:27] <kbrooks> uh?
[12:27] <juice_> i told him how to turn on universe and multiverse already
[12:27] <juice_> step by step
[12:27] <juice_> he says it didnt work
[12:28] <strog_> kbrooks:"!"
[12:28] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[12:28] <kbrooks> juice_: he has to refresh repos.
[12:28] <Doctor_Zoidberg> had a look, i thought you could edit by element
[12:28] <juice_> kbrooks: told him that too already
[12:28] <jscinoz> Evening folks
[12:28] <juice_> kbrooks: to type sudo apt-get update, and he claims it still doesnt work, so i dont know
[12:28] <funkmaster> hi there i have a question, does twisted 2.4 also work on ubuntu feisty without a problem?
[12:28] <IntuitiveNipple> blind: Best thing to do is "lshw" and look for your webcam. There you'll find a line for each device that reads "configuration: driver=XXXXXX". Search for XXXXX on Google and you should be able to trace the driver writers
[12:28] <blind> IntuitiveNipple: thanks
[12:29] <MerlinZShell> Hello guys
[12:29] <MerlinZShell> how can I test a mail server using NC
[12:29] <MerlinZShell> netcat
[12:29] <juice_> strog_: the problem you have is strange, maybe pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list somewhere on the net and give us the link
[12:29] <IntuitiveNipple> blind: Or you could just search Google for "linux" and the webcam model
[12:29] <blind> that would probably work better, seeing as how my webcam isn't recognized right now.
[12:29] <blind> god, i really don't feel like rebooting lol.
[12:30] <IntuitiveNipple> blind: why do you need to reboot?
[12:31] <Scott__> hey folks
[12:31] <IntuitiveNipple> blind: Can't you unload the driver manually?
[12:31] <Scott__> is it possible to lock firefox to one site only?
[12:31] <blind> IntuitiveNipple: i don't know. can i?
[12:31] <IntuitiveNipple> blind: If the reason to reboot is to kill the driver, I would think so :)
[12:31] <MerlinZShell> guys anyone here uses netcat also known as nc ?
[12:32] <blind> IntuitiveNipple: how? :] 
[12:32] <kbrooks> MerlinZShell: just ask
[12:32] <Frogzoo> Scott__: iptables will do it
[12:32] <IntuitiveNipple> blind: sudo modprobe -r XXXXXX
[12:32] <kbrooks> OK, conclusion: Ubuntu bug.
[12:32] <_Ahti> MerlinZShell: Yeah, netcat is the same as nc???
[12:32] <blind> IntuitiveNipple: how do i find the module name?
[12:33] <IntuitiveNipple> blind: Refer to my previous comment about using lshw :)
[12:33] <_Ahti> MerlinZShell: Ah :D Sorry i misunderstood the question :P
[12:34] <Vanuatoo> I've downloaded sun-jdk 1.6 from sun site. self extracting binary and unpacked it to some directory
[12:34] <private_meta> can anyone help me with the wlan-problem?is there a way so that i don't have to input my wlan data (certificate, username, pwd) all the time?
[12:34] <Scott__> Frogzoo: care to elaborate? :>
[12:34] <Vanuatoo> when I go to JDK_HOME/bin
[12:35] <MerlinZShell> well the question is how can i use nc to troubleshoot smtp?
[12:35] <Vanuatoo> and run java it says error while loading shared libraries: libjli.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[12:35] <Frogzoo> Scott__: iptables can restrict http traffic to just certain ips
[12:35] <MerlinZShell> _Ahti : kbrooks : any idea ?
[12:36] <rasputnik> has anyone else found bash has started sticking a '/' on the end of tab-completed filenames?
[12:36] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: You would manually operate the SMTP session
[12:36] <MerlinZShell> i know how to do it on telnet
[12:36] <Scott__> rasputnik, its done that the past two releases :p
[12:36] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: Same with nc
[12:36] <rasputnik> Scott__: why?
[12:37] <MerlinZShell> but on nc i am not receiving reply from the server after the connection established reply
[12:37] <[8sch] > hello, maybe someone can help me: i hat installed windows on c: and when i boot windows there is said that <winows root>\system32\ntoskrnl.exe is not avalible
[12:37] <Scott__> rasputnik, not too sure, perhaps its a new 'feature'
[12:37] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: Sounds like a problem with the server, does it work using telnet?
[12:37] <pyrohotdog> anyone know if http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833328201 would work with LIRC?
[12:37] <Aladin> On the left hand of Nautilus there is a link to an unmounted partition. How can I delete this link?
[12:38] <MerlinZShell> yes on telnet after the helo it gives a reply on nc after the helo i dont get a reply
[12:38] <Scott__> Frogzoo: You don't happen to know the required iptables rule I need do ya
[12:38] <rasputnik> Scott__: just opened a new shell and it's not doing it any more. bizarre.
[12:38] <Scott__> rasputnik, does it on my slack box all the time =] 
[12:38] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: That does seem strange. NC is getting the 220 ID message from the server?
[12:39] <bullgard4> My kernel has a 'battery' module. But dmesg does not mention 'SBST' (Smart Battery Table). Why not?
[12:39] <pdlnhrd> any regex masters that can write an expression looking for all -->  but not --->  matches?
[12:39] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: I've just tested it on my server and it works okay
[12:39] <rasputnik> Scott__: must be some option I've toggled on. oh well.
[12:40] <MerlinZShell> 250 server.domain Hello [clientip]  it is this message that telnet gives but nc doesnt maybe im calling nc in a wrong way
[12:40] <MerlinZShell> i just do nc servername port is that it ?
[12:40] <jscinoz> How can one change the icon on the Show Desktop button in the lower left corner?
[12:40] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: Yes
[12:41] <MerlinZShell> ok after helo domainname is enter the end of line char
[12:41] <MerlinZShell> i just do helo domainname and press enter i get a new line with no reply
[12:41] <IntuitiveNipple> Try EHLO rather than HELO
[12:41] <Asfaq> hi all, am making a custom Live CD and am stuck... big time! could someone help me out? i'd really appreciate it!
[12:42] <MerlinZShell> I just tryed nc -v -v but still the same
[12:42] <Asfaq> i am trying to use reconstructor with fiesty to make custom splash screens and custom apps..
[12:43] <Asfaq> the splash screens have turned out ok.. but i cant seem to get the apps to go into the final ISO
[12:43] <Asfaq> any help would be appreciated
[12:43] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: Have you tested it against other SMTP servers, just in case?
[12:43] <mwe> MerlinZShell: what kind of server are you trying to talk to?
[12:43] <mwe> MerlinZShell: mail?
[12:43] <Scott__> brb
[12:43] <jscinoz> Guys i have some custom icons installed, but the icon for Desktop in the places menu isn't registering correctly where should it be and what should it be called
[12:44] <YesterdayDeng> hi
[12:44] <MerlinZShell> Exchange :(
[12:44] <funkmaster> has anyone freevo installed on feisty?
[12:44] <Asfaq> :(
[12:44] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: There's no reason I can think of, aside from packet filtering, for Telnet to work and NC not to work
[12:45] <YesterdayDeng> Is any body knows how to open telnet service? the telnetd has already installed
[12:45] <MerlinZShell> well there is an isa server on the network but im on the alloe rule
[12:45] <KnowledgEngineer> hello
[12:45] <KnowledgEngineer> someone can tall me what package i need to install for use the semantic web?
[12:46] <YesterdayDeng> no body knows?
[12:46] <rasputnik> YesterdayDeng: why do you want telnet ?
[12:46] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: I had a problem with ISA Server a year or more ago, in just this situation and it turns out there was no way of stopping it filtering certain protocols
[12:46] <YesterdayDeng> because I need to remote help
[12:46] <rasputnik> YesterdayDeng: install ssh then
[12:47] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: But it's so long ago I can't recall where I would have filed the bug report
[12:47] <YesterdayDeng> okay, I will try
[12:47] <Asfaq> no help?
[12:47] <pyrohotdog> Is there no PPC version of 7.04?
[12:47] <rasputnik> YesterdayDeng: 'sudo apt-get install openssh-server'
[12:47] <MerlinZShell> i dont really need that i just wanted to try nc
[12:47] <MerlinZShell> in telnet it works fine
[12:47] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: Does telnet from the same workstation as NC work?
[12:47] <Vanuatoo> how do I specify additional dirs to library path?
[12:47] <jrib> !ppc > pyrohotdog (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:48] <jrib> Vanuatoo: for gcc?
[12:48] <Vanuatoo> I've got some .so file that I want to be searched by some executable
[12:48] <rasputnik> Vanuatoo: edit /etc/ld.so.conf and run 'sudo ldconfig'
[12:48] <MerlinZShell> yep
[12:48] <Vanuatoo> rasputnik: thanks
[12:48] <MerlinZShell> ill try to telnet to an other machine outside my network where i have a linux mail server
[12:49] <funkmaster> has anyone freevo installed on feisty?
[12:49] <mwe> MerlinZShell: it's odd. it responds to the connection but doesn't reply to HELO. only in telnet. I'm not sure what's up
[12:49] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: The only thing I can think is telnet is encoding stdout, or the input, and nc isn't
[12:49] <mwe> encoding?
[12:49] <albert> hi, i always experience problems with compiling software on my own. currently i'm trying to compile dillo, but i fail to find out the proper depencies. is there some guide, howto, faq for compiling in general available?
[12:49] <ques> can anyone help me with an ssh problem>
[12:49] <ques> ?
[12:49] <mwe> it should by asci
[12:49] <mwe> be even
[12:49] <rasputnik> ques: probably.
[12:50] <MerlinZShell> i thought i would get more output using nc
[12:50] <MerlinZShell> :)
[12:50] <jrib> ques: just ask
[12:50] <IntuitiveNipple> mwe: yeah, but something is weird. I'm going to blame ISA Server though :)
[12:50] <Frogzoo> albert: if the code you have doesn't build nicely, it's really only fixable by the developers
[12:50] <jrib> albert: why compile dillo?  It's in the repositories
[12:50] <mwe> IntuitiveNipple: yeah maybe
[12:50] <albert> i need the tabbing option as well as the frames option
[12:50] <albert> although it's one version behind
[12:51] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: I'd install Wireshark and sniff the SMTP connections, see what the difference is
[12:51] <MerlinZShell> postfix works better with it
[12:51] <jrib> albert: well if you install "build-essential" and do 'sudo apt-get build-dep dillo' you will be able to compile the version in the repositories
[12:51] <albert> jrib, thank you very much
[12:52] <MerlinZShell> :) ok ill try that just after i finish my setup it would be good to know whats happening around
[12:52] <MerlinZShell> did any of you see iris and the way it works on windows
[12:52] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: Yeah, I hate when I don't know why something ain't working
[12:52] <MerlinZShell> with its graphical filters
[12:52] <albert> jrib, i used to aptitude everytime, will there propably occur problems by using apt-get?
[12:52] <jrib> albert: nope
[12:53] <albert> k
[12:53] <MerlinZShell> guys is there a sniffer for linux that rebuilds http traffic to make you see the site like in iris
[12:54] <IntuitiveNipple> MerlinZShell: When you said iris, I thought you meant the image-processing package?
[12:54] <Merijn> I'm configuring openssh-server, where do I put authorized_keys?
[12:55] <flake> when I play wolf - et, the monitor goes dark and I have to recalibrate the gamma to reset the brightness. happens about every 10 to 15 minutes
[12:55] <flake> or a regular basis, whichever comes first
[12:55] <MerlinZShell> no its a net sniffer that has a very nice graphical filter editing system and it tries to rebuild recognised traffic as http .....
[12:55] <MerlinZShell> is there anything close on linux
[12:55] <jrib> Merijn: ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
[12:56] <IntuitiveNipple> I thought Wireshark could with appropriate plugins
[12:57] <jgarcia> leave
[12:57] <Merijn> thanks jrib
[12:57] <arturikus> hola
[12:57] <arturikus> hello

[12:59] <joycetick> hi, i currently have feisty and windows xp in dual boot, am i able to run my windows xp inside of feisty using qemu or something?
[12:59] <YesterdayDeng> hi, I installed the SSH, but start failed like this, how can I find the reason for failure?
[12:59] <YesterdayDeng>  Starting OpenBSD Secure Shell server...                               [fail] 
[12:59] <YesterdayDeng> Thanks
[01:00] <jrib> YesterdayDeng: did you try to start it after installing?
[01:00] <YesterdayDeng> yes
[01:00] <IntuitiveNipple> YesterdayDeng: Is it already running?
[01:00] <tarelerulz> I am thinking about use internet caffie hot spots and I would like to know what I need. I have working wi-fi ,but it is open connect .
[01:00] <jrib> YesterdayDeng: it's started automatically so it should be running, as IntuitiveNipple said
[01:00] <YesterdayDeng> ok, I restart it,Thanks a lot!
[01:01] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: What Ubuntu version do you use?
[01:01] <tarelerulz> 7.04
[01:01] <Jim_Beam> *** Anyone got an idea how to fix the time problems with LIFEREA ? - I would like to have a 24hours system and I don't want to get Messages from the future...
[01:01] <flake> lol...  no we don't want to get any messages from the future
[01:01] <funkmaster> has anyone freevo installed on feisty?
[01:01] <flake> sorry, had to say that
[01:01] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: It should have NetworkManager pre-installed... With it, it should be connecting to an open wireless network automatically
[01:02] <anathematic> hey i want to use my ubuntu server as a gateway for other computers to the internet
[01:02] <anathematic> what should i be reading up on?
[01:02] <Frogzoo> sc0tt: something like: sudo iptables -A INPUT -i eth0 --sport 80 ! -s website.x.y.z -j DROP
[01:02] <YesterdayDeng> bye every one, I'm starving
[01:02] <tarelerulz> Ahti , I have that install ,but I was wondering what about not open networks?  What do I need then ?
[01:03] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: However, if its not. The best way to connect is by making sure your wireless interface is up and running, make iwconfig auto and run dhclient
[01:03] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Ah
[01:03] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Well, you could try a program called... Wifi-radar (i think that was it)
[01:04] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: its probably the easiest way if you're a newbie
[01:04] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: but the Network Manager as is should work just fine
[01:04] <flake> why does my wolf-et game go dark after 10-15 mins of play and I have to readjust the gamma to fix the brightness?
[01:05] <tarelerulz> Ahti that should have something so I encyription .  I don't want any passer by to see what I send to a site
[01:05] <anathematic> hey i want to use my ubuntu server as a gateway for other computers on my network to my internet  connection, what should i be reading up on?
[01:05] <MerlinZShell> does wireshark work on wireless ?
[01:05] <lucifer>      ?
[01:05] <tarelerulz> Ahti , that is the part I am worndering about ?
[01:05] <funkmaster> anathematic: if u want an easy setup and to handle program, just install firestarter
[01:06] <mjr> !ru
[01:06] <ubotu>    #ubuntu-ru       /  Pozhalujsta vojdite v #ubuntu-ru dlq pomoshchi na russkom qzyke
[01:06] <lucifer> 
[01:06] <flake> what was that about - the language I mean
[01:06] <funkmaster> russian
[01:06] <funkmaster> for the russiona ubuntu chan
[01:06] <flake> cool
[01:06] <joycetick> I currently have feisty and windows xp in dual boot, am i able to run my windows xp inside of feisty using qemu or something?
[01:06] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Well, if you're using an encryption to connect to a wireless network, you're going to need the pass-key, the "passer-by" will need that key aswell...
[01:07] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: I think
[01:07] <funkmaster> joycetick: i would suggest to use vmplayer
[01:07] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: But the chances are that you're pretty safe anyway :)
[01:08] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: People can see you send packets there and here, but theres not that many people who actually know what to do with all that info :)
[01:08] <joycetick> funkmaster: i installed that, but i got the idea that i would need to re-install windows xp
[01:08] <funkmaster> nope
[01:08] <funkmaster> u should not need to i believe
[01:08] <joycetick> when it opens all it asks me for is a .vmx file
[01:09] <tarelerulz> Ahti , I was just wondering about encrytion and all. Windows just has it and I did not know if I need to use other networks
[01:09] <joycetick> i can browse my machine or quit
[01:09] <funkmaster> but reinstalling it in vmware has its advantages, first of all that u will have a clean new system of course
[01:09] <funkmaster> u can just bridge ur network connections
[01:09] <funkmaster> and they will work in the vmplayer as well
[01:10] <SoulRaven> hy, i have a notebook ASUS A4000L, and i want to install Ubuntu 7.04, but after i boot from cd....when Gnome start's a error window apears, "Some things, such as thems, sounds, or background setting may not work correctly", and that continue loading, and when the desktop apears, no icon apears, or some command.....only the 2 bars up and down...
[01:10] <tarelerulz> Funkmaster is vmplaeyr that good ? can it play wma ,wmv ,avi  etc?
[01:10] <anathematic> funkmaster:  to you suggesting firestarter before, where do i go if i want to do it all in my console instead? (for learning experience)
[01:10] <funkmaster> yes u need to create a vmx file
[01:10] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Yeaaah, i'm not following you anymore 0_0' ... The encryption works fine on 7.04
[01:10] <funkmaster> u can select in vmware to look for an windows install
[01:10] <Frogzoo> MerlinZShell: sure
[01:10] <funkmaster> it should create necessary files
[01:11] <rollerskatejamms> How can I remove root's password so that nobody can log in directly as root? (I just set a password on root, stupid me)
[01:11] <funkmaster> tarelrulz: vmplayer is not a mediaplayer
[01:11] <MerlinZShell> Frogzoo: thank you im testing it now
[01:11] <joycetick> umm, what does network connections have to do with this? lol, and i think il just keep my xp if i cant do it
[01:11] <funkmaster> it belongs to vmware
[01:11] <funkmaster> virtual manager
[01:11] <MerlinZShell> filters side its amazing
[01:11] <funkmaster> commercial OS emulator
[01:11] <funkmaster> but vmplayer is for free
[01:11] <Noparse> Hey guys.
[01:11] <rollerskatejamms> vmware server is free too
[01:12] <tarelerulz> Ahti , 7.04 has encryption ? I did not know that . if so how could I if I am use it ?
[01:12] <joycetick> funkmaster: do i need to install vmware server or something along with player?
[01:12] <Noparse> I have a major WTF question about Ubuntu.
[01:12] <funkmaster> anathematic: do u have the multiverse repos?
[01:12] <SoulRaven> hy, i have a notebook ASUS A4000L, and i want to install Ubuntu 7.04, but after i boot from cd....when Gnome start's a error window apears, "Some things, such as thems, sounds, or background setting may not work correctly", and that continue loading, and when the desktop apears, no icon apears, or some command.....only the 2 bars up and down...
[01:12] <Frogzoo> funkmaster: http://www.easyvmx.com/
[01:12] <funkmaster> anathematic: do sudo apt-get install firestarter
[01:12] <anathematic> funkmaster:  i don't know what multiverse is sorry =(
[01:12] <phy2> Noparse, should we guess?
[01:12] <funkmaster> well i think if u don't have the vmx player u will need it for the first time, later u can remove vmware and just leave vmplayer
[01:12] <anathematic> i'll just do sudo etc for it
[01:12] <anathematic> and play :)
[01:13] <funkmaster> anathematic: u know the ubuntu guide site?
[01:13] <anathematic> funkmaster: link?
[01:13] <funkmaster> anathematic: i assume u have feisty?
[01:13] <anathematic> funkmaster:  yeah ubuntu server 7.04 :)
[01:13] <Noparse> I installed Ubuntu and it won't connect to the net. I usually use wireless, but I tried wired and that didn't work either. I rebooted. I tryed everything. Nothing. I would actually use it if it would work...
[01:14] <kbrooks> Noparse: Ubuntu is not Windows.
[01:14] <Frogzoo> Noparse: probly you just need to tweak /etc/network/interfaces
[01:14] <KennyTheGeek> Does anyone know if/how i make a dsa/rsa keyset for use with, for example ssh, with more than one private key, with different passphrases for each key?
[01:14] <tarelerulz> Noparse , I had to use ndiswrapper and he drives from windows to get mine to work
[01:14] <kbrooks> Noparse: you will need some patience over on the Ubuntu side
[01:14] <Noparse> ndiswrapper?
[01:14] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: It should be automatic... The encryption that is
[01:14] <funkmaster> anathematic: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Feisty
[01:15] <anathematic> funkmaster:  thank you :)
[01:15] <funkmaster> there is described how to add extra reps and how to install firestarter, also from the command line
[01:15] <funkmaster> np :)
[01:15] <flake> on my laptop I had to use ndiswrapper as well, but in my case every time I boot my laptop I have to go into the networking GUI and have it 're-boot' to get connected - haven't taken the time to figure out how to fix it
[01:15] <Noparse> kbrooks: OK Then! I will just dual boot between Windows and Ubuntu trying to troubleshoot Ubuntu... [/sarcasm] 
[01:15] <tarelerulz> Ahti so how can I get information about encryption ? I just to like to know a bit more then it just works or should be working
[01:15] <kbrooks> Noparse: :P
[01:16] <Noparse> I would of thought it would of connected by itself.
[01:16] <flake> maybe in a couple of more years..  it's moving that way I think
[01:16] <kbrooks> Noparse: windows needs "drivers", which it has.
[01:16] <flake> or less
[01:16] <kbrooks> Noparse: ubuntu needs drivers, which it DOESNT have
[01:17] <flake> Noparse  googly ndiswrapper and your laptop model, you can find the fix, it's out there
[01:17] <Noparse> Not my lappy. Desktop.
[01:17] <flake> ah  are you on a router
[01:17] <Noparse> Yes.
[01:17] <flake> is it set to filter the mac addresses
[01:17] <Noparse> Its a router-and-modem-in-one
[01:18] <Noparse> flake: I don't know?
[01:18] <flake> wonder if the windows mac hardware addr is different from linux one
[01:18] <flake> i'm no network guru
[01:18] <shinao1> hi
[01:18] <gil> are there some issues with the repos since last night?
[01:18] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: That depends, what kind of information do you want about the encryption???
[01:18] <IntuitiveNipple> flake: I wouldn't think so, not for the wired interface at least
[01:18] <shinao1> i have a problem setting up printers with cups webadmin in Edgy Eft.. im trying to follow the howtoforge howto in setting up a file and printer server.. but when i try to create/add a printer the webadmin hangs and the page doesnt change.. is there a commandline guide to setting up cups?
[01:18] <Noparse> flake: My wireless card likes to use its own bastardized software that (*SHOCK*) only works on Windows.
[01:18] <tarelerulz> I know I wish I was networking Guru myself.
[01:18] <shinao1> or do i need something else, like a patch?
[01:19] <phy2> over one eye?
[01:19] <tarelerulz> Ahti , I would like to know what kind verion and so stuff like that
[01:19] <kbrooks> (07:18:39 AM) shinao1: i have a problem setting up printers with cups webadmin in Edgy Eft.. im trying to follow the howtoforge howto in setting up a file and printer server.. but when i try to create/add a printer the webadmin hangs and the page doesnt change.. is there a commandline guide to setting up cups?
[01:19] <kbrooks>  # dont use the webadmin
[01:19] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Like whether its using a WEP or WPA encryption?
[01:19] <IntuitiveNipple> Noparse: Does your wired network connection get issued with an IP address?
[01:19] <flake> what version of ubuntu are you running
[01:19] <flake> Noparse
[01:20] <Noparse> Umm let me get the ubuntu disc
[01:20] <flake> from a terminal, type in   ifconfig
[01:20] <Noparse> IntuitiveNipple: I think so
[01:20] <just-ask-marc> how can i change the resolution for console? running 7.0.4 server
[01:20] <tarelerulz> Ahti , that would be more then help full. I seen bunch of wep cracker on adept so I would like to know if I am use wep
[01:20] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: ok, try typing this in your console "sudo iwlist *interface_name* scanning"
[01:20] <Noparse> its 6.06 LTS
[01:20] <IntuitiveNipple> Noparse: If the IP address was assigned dynamically by the router/modem using DHCP, then the main part of connecting is working
[01:21] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: that will give you some info about the nearby wireless networks
[01:22] <Noparse> flake: Should I put ndiswrapper on my flash drive and run it from Ubuntu?
[01:22] <tarelerulz> Ahti , my interface don't support that haha
[01:22] <sinapsi77> ciao
[01:22] <sinapsi77> posso chiedere un aiuto?
[01:22] <bullgard4> Where is explained the format of this dmesg message: "ACPI: DSDT (v001 INTEL  ALVISO   0x06040000 MSFT 0x0100000e) @ 0x00000000"?
[01:22] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Right, what is your card? Driver, Native or ndiswrapper?
[01:22] <flake> I'm sorry, for some reason I assumed it was a laptop
[01:22] <MojoM> hi, can anyone please help me? my ubuntu installation crashes in the user-account screen.
[01:23] <Frogzoo> kbrooks: add cupsys to group shadow
[01:23] <tarelerulz> Ahti , my driver is ndiswrapper .
[01:23] <pyrohotdog> What packages do I need installed to enable daap sharing in Rythmbox?
[01:23] <flake> oh for wireless
[01:23] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Ah, should still work tho... is the interface up?
[01:24] <tarelerulz> Ahti , I am use it right now for this connection
[01:24] <just-ask-marc> got a eas question here: how can i change the resolution of my terminal / console? running ubuntu server 7.04 without dm!
[01:24] <rollerskatejamms> Anybody know how to set root back to having no login password so that you have to use sudo?
[01:25] <Noparse> OK Then... Ill be back if ndiswrapper does not work.
[01:25] <flake> Noparse you could run it from your flash drive, but I think the main issue is your ethernet card isn't recognized
[01:25] <just-ask-marc> rollerskatejamms: just set no password
[01:25] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Right, just try "iwconfig *interface_name*"
[01:25] <Noparse> Ill be back if it does work too.
[01:25] <Noparse> BRB!
[01:25] <flake> cool
[01:25] <rollerskatejamms> just-ask-marc, I don't want a blank password, then you can log in  without a password
[01:25] <k1gwb> Anyone know why there are 2 of everything in my applications menus??
[01:26] <just-ask-marc> rollerskatejamms: you cant loging with root when no password is set, can you?
[01:26] <Frogzoo> rollerskatejamms: sudo passwd -d root
[01:26] <rollerskatejamms> jussi01, yes you can.
[01:26] <rollerskatejamms> just-ask-marc, yes you can
[01:26] <digital_k> k1gwb: have you tried deleting the menu then re adding it again ?
[01:26] <rollerskatejamms> just-ask-marc, how do you think you recover systems with a lost root pass
[01:26] <rollerskatejamms> just-ask-marc, you boot to a live cd and blank out the password file
[01:26] <IntuitiveNipple> rollerskatejamms: In /etc/passwd make the root entry password a !
[01:27] <IntuitiveNipple> rollerskatejamms: oops! In /etc/shadow make the root entry password a !
[01:27] <just-ask-marc> rollerskatejamms: ok
[01:27] <k1gwb> digital_k: i tried rm -f $HOME/.config/menus/applications.menu which a website said to do.....do i have to log out and in or soemthing? that didn't seem to change anything
[01:27] <rollerskatejamms> Frogzoo, passwd -d lets you log in withou a password
[01:27] <IntuitiveNipple> rollerskatejamms: E.g: "root:!:13521:0:99999:7:::"
[01:27] <rollerskatejamms> IntuitiveNipple, I'll try that thanks.
[01:27] <digital_k> you need to restart x maybe, cntrl+alt+backspace
[01:27] <just-ask-marc> how can i change the resolution of my terminal / console? running ubuntu server 7.04 without dm!
[01:27] <tarelerulz> Ahti, I run that and I got no such device
[01:28] <k1gwb> okay I'll try that :) thanks
[01:28] <rollerskatejamms> IntuitiveNipple, You sure ! doesn't represent some really simple encrypted charecter?
[01:28] <MojoM> hi, can anyone please help me? my ubuntu installation crashes in the user-account screen.
[01:28] <IntuitiveNipple> rollerskatejamms: oh yeah :)
[01:28] <rollerskatejamms> IntuitiveNipple, Ok cool. it worked
[01:28] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Wow, i'm getting confused? What is the name of the interface you get when you run "ifconfig -a"
[01:28] <IntuitiveNipple> rollerskatejamms: Just examine your existing /etc/shadow, you'll see the entry format
[01:28] <Mishaal> hi. how can i mount the drives?? i use ubuntu :)
[01:29] <Frogzoo> rollerskatejamms: sudo passwd -l root
[01:29] <just-ask-marc> Mishaal: man mount
[01:29] <rollerskatejamms> Frogzoo, nice.
[01:29] <digital_k> k1gwb: did it work?
[01:29] <k1gwb> That worked, thanks digital_k....i have another one though if you don't mind ;)
[01:29] <rollerskatejamms> Frogzoo, that works  great.
[01:30] <digital_k> no problem I will help if i can. :)
[01:30] <Mishaal> just-ask-marc: i use the command ls /dev/hd*
[01:30] <_Ahti> Mishaal: say you want to unmount your ntfs partition, just run "umount /dev/hda1" (assuming thats the correct partition) or "umount /media/hda1" (again, assuming thats the correct partition) :D
[01:30] <tarelerulz> Ahti, I thinkg it is eth1
[01:30] <Dexter_Holland> Got some wireless problems ;< I got usb wifi asus 167g. It is recognised in ubuntu and I can see my wifi network. But I cannot connect to it. NetworkManager shows me 2 wireless connecections (wmaster0, wlan0). I tried to configure both of them - didn't help. Well, I tried rt73 drivers, ndiswrapper, wifi-radar and still no result :(
[01:30] <Dexter_Holland> Can someone help me? ^_^
[01:31] <IntuitiveNipple> Dexter_Holland: Is the WiFi network encrypted?
[01:31] <just-ask-marc> Mishaal: you said you like to mount a drive? goes like "mount /dev/hda1 /media/hda1" e.g.
[01:31] <Dexter_Holland> IntuitiveNipple, nope
[01:31] <k1gwb> i have a small panel on the top middle of my right monitor in gnome (also using beryl but this seems to be a gnome problem) with some app launchers on it....whenever i log in, this small panel (only about 15% screen width) is not at the top....it's down too far....the I right click it, toggle "expand" (to 100% width) on, and it goes to the top, then turn "expand" off....and then it is how it should be
[01:31] <Dexter_Holland> i turned everything off
[01:31] <k1gwb> i can provide screenshots if necessary
[01:31] <just-ask-marc> Mishaal: ls means list content of dir
[01:32] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: Ok, do this, run "ifconfig eth1 up; iwconfig"
[01:32] <digital_k> k1gwb: that would be helpful, can you post them at imageshack?
[01:32] <digital_k> or somewhere?
[01:32] <k1gwb> sure
[01:32] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: what does it give you?
[01:32] <just-ask-marc> anyone can help me? how can i change the resolution of my terminal / console? running ubuntu server 7.04 without dm!
[01:32] <IntuitiveNipple> Dexter_Holland: Does the Access Point have MAC-authorisation running?
[01:32] <djay-il> hello
[01:32] <Dexter_Holland> IntuitiveNipple, nope :<
[01:32] <digital_k> just-ask-marc: is the font too small or too large?
[01:33] <Mishaal>  only root can do that just-ask-marc
[01:33] <shinao1> hi im using Edgy Eft, trying to follow the howtoforge guide in setting up a file and print server. The cups webadmin just fails to continue after asking for username and password
[01:33] <shinao1> is there a commandline guide to this?
[01:33] <Sarceyamo> hola
[01:33] <just-ask-marc> digital_k: resolution is to small, so font to large
[01:33] <Frogzoo> just-ask-marc: change FONTFACE in /etc/default/console-setup
[01:33] <shinao1> hi im using Edgy Eft, trying to follow the howtoforge guide in setting up a file and print server. The cups webadmin just fails to continue after asking for username and password
[01:33] <IntuitiveNipple> Dexter_Holland: If the PC can see an open network but can't connect, the only things I can think of are 1) the WAP is operating at a fixed speed that the client can't connect at (unlikely), or you've got radio interference from other devices in the 2.4GHz band
[01:33] <shinao1> is there a commandline guide to this?
[01:33] <just-ask-marc> digital_k: like to get a larger res like 1024x768
[01:34] <tarelerulz> Ahti, a link to that pastbin part of ubuntu if you would ?
[01:34] <Sarceyamo> por favor algun canal en castellano?
[01:34] <jrib> !es | Sarceyamo
[01:34] <ubotu> Sarceyamo: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[01:34] <jrib> !cupsweb > shinao1 (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:34] <digital_k> just-ask-marc-it seems to me the monitor would go to native resolution. are you using an LCD?
[01:34] <Sarceyamo> muchas gracias
[01:35] <just-ask-marc> digital_k: yes using lcd 19'
[01:35] <shinao1> i did that already, jrib
[01:35] <erUSUL> shinao1: cups web interface comes disabled in debian/ubuntu by default
[01:35] <Frogzoo> just-ask-marc: to change console res, you need to pass a vga option in /boot/grub/menu.lst, something like "# kopt=root=UUID=8f249e8e-18a7-467b-860e-d8eb245fe03d ro vga=791 quiet splash"
[01:35] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: You know what? I'm not sure whats going on, it should all run nicely, you should be getting your info about the network just like that.. You've got ndiswrapper control your wifi-card drivers, with that, you should be fine... hmmm
[01:36] <Dexter_Holland> IntuitiveNipple, well, I'm connected to this wifi network right now. Just using windows, not ubuntu. So the problem is in the software =|
[01:36] <just-ask-marc> Frogzoo: yeah thats what i am looking for
[01:36] <erUSUL> shinao1: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PrintingCupsWebInterface
[01:36] <k1gwb> digital_k: http://i18.tinypic.com/4kyku2h.jpg ....this is it, fixed.....i can't show you when it's broken cause right now i just fix it after each login, but then it reverts next time....it would just be lower about 200 pixels on login, then i expand it and it pops to the top, then turn off expand.
[01:36] <Frogzoo> just-ask-marc: after you've set kopt, run 'sudo update-grub'
[01:36] <kikka> Hi
[01:37] <IntuitiveNipple> Dexter_Holland: Hmmm, that does sound like a driver issue. Are you using NDISwrapper or native linux drivers?
[01:37] <tarelerulz> Ahti ,maybe I am  over looking something in the wifi gui programs about encryption or something
[01:37] <tarelerulz> If that is so I will look harder
[01:37] <DrCur1> hi
[01:38] <DrCur1> someone knows a solution for the suspend problems in feisty? lots of complaints in the forum, but no solution :(
[01:38] <Dexter_Holland> IntuitiveNipple, well I tried both. NDISwrapper driver tells me smth. like no hardware installed. Native linux drivers do see the device but I cannot connect using them.
[01:38] <digital_k> k1gwb: do this, go to system>preferences>sessions, far right tab. Is there a check mark in auto save sessions? It could be its loading the same session at each login.
[01:38] <digital_k> uncheck that box if so.
[01:38] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: YEah, *Sigh*, besides, the interface eth1 isn't normally for wireless anyway
[01:39] <john> someone here?
[01:39] <k1gwb> there was not a check there
[01:39] <_Ahti> john: yeah, theres a lot of people here :P
[01:39] <IntuitiveNipple> Dexter_Holland: I'd contact the maintainers of the linux drivers with the details of your hardware then
[01:39] <spine> lots
[01:39] <john> oh,good....
[01:39] <digital_k> k1gwb: what is that blueish tint in your screen shot?
[01:39] <digital_k> below the dock?
[01:39] <tarelerulz> Ahti , I was so happy that I got wireworking at all I did not look into much at all.
[01:39] <k1gwb> the transparency of the background, seeing through to the other sides of the cube in beryl probably
[01:40] <tarelerulz> Ahti, I just thought I would come here and see if there was way I could find about it a bit more and maybe find out what I would need for the road
[01:40] <k1gwb> i only took a partial screenshot cause my resolution is huge 1440x900...times 2
[01:40] <digital_k> lol thats a high resolution alright.
[01:40] <digital_k> wow
[01:41] <digital_k> how can you see that??
[01:41] <digital_k> haha
[01:41] <flake> vlc is playing my dvd, first chance I had to test it
[01:41] <nate_> join #kubuntu
[01:41] <k1gwb> well it's two widescreen 19" lcd's side by side
[01:41] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: You have NetworkManager installed, it SHOULD prompt you for a pass-key if you stop by at a cafeteria which has an encrypted wireless network
[01:41] <digital_k> ahhhhh
[01:41] <flake> star wars 3 - my os is clawing it's eyes out :/
[01:42] <tarelerulz> Ahti , thanks that is what I wanted to know the most.
[01:42] <digital_k> k1gwb: I wish i had the answer but I am not familiar with using 2 screens at all. :/
[01:42] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: the commands "iwconfig", etc can find out anything you need for basic networking...
[01:42] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: but just incase... you could have a look at "Wifi-radar"
[01:43] <_Ahti> tarelerulz: You'll need to configure it to suit your hardware, but once thats done.. :) Happy times
[01:43] <Dexter_Holland> IntuitiveNipple, is there any way to install linux driver avoiding terminal (I'm allways getting errors when using it)? Any GUI like ndisgtk.
[01:44] <k1gwb> oh okay well thanks for giving it a shot... it didn't really strike me as a dual screen issue cause the x position was fine, it's just the why position that is off, and only right after i login, then it fixes itself when i expand the panel.  it's silly. maybe just a gnome bug.  the ONLY other problem i have in feisty is my laserjet 1020 won't print at all.  and I've done everything from the forums with the foo2whatever driver.  lol
[01:44] <k1gwb> hahaha...pidgin changed "y" to why....that's annoying
[01:44] <cbs> whats the best program to convert avi files for burning to disc?
[01:44] <IntuitiveNipple> Dexter_Holland: unless its part of an update, you usually need to run the installer from a terminal. You need to use sudo so the installer has super-user privileges to install drivers.
[01:45] <Aaron_Mason> hey all, having issues with trying to mount smb shares... it says "bad superblock etc" and dmesg says "smb_fill_super: missing data argument" - any ideas?

[01:45] <_Ahti> !anything
[01:45] <ubotu> So, you wanted to lure me into saying I don't know anything about anything? Yeah, that would be funny, of course. Now leave me alone.
[01:45] <Aaron_Mason> lol
[01:45] <IntuitiveNipple> Dexter_Holland: What've you done? :)
[01:46] <k1gwb> HAHAH!
[01:46] <john> kubuntu is beter than edubuntu??

[01:46] <ubotu> Saying "It says nothing", "It does nothing" is generally not very useful for troubleshooting. Please be as specific as possible: if you see a black screen, say so, if you see a shell prompt, say so, if you see an !error message, say so - Also, most !CLI commands don't print anything when they succeed, but only when they fail.
[01:46] <nnacht> Hey! can somebody tell me why kernel package which is compiled by myself is so big, so about 200MB?

[01:47] <Kaso> I'm having some wierdness with when i try to open lua files on ubuntu, its saying something about it being a VHDL document (http://kasoo.net/img/imgs/luawierdness.png) no idea whats going on.
[01:47] <john> edubuntu is so cute...

[01:47] <john> ^_^
[01:47] <IntuitiveNipple> Isn't edubuntu also aimed at 'thin clients' ?
[01:48] <digital_k> yes

[01:48] <EmotiOn> alguien que hable castellano???
[01:48] <Dexter_Holland> IntuitiveNipple, I mean it's a bit hard for me to compile the drivers and so on :) I't allways the main trouble for me when I try to switch to linux. I cannot configure my wifi -> no internet -> no point in using OS without internet :)
[01:48] <k1gwb> I'm trying to get my 911 psap to switch to ubuntu
[01:48] <digital_k> its a great distro you dont have to worry about the kids mucking anything over...lol
[01:48] <TakeOut{u}> digital_k : i only hope one day my children will be as leet
[01:48] <digital_k> TakeOut:lol
[01:48] <mantas> hi, how can i stop start or restart glassfish under ubuntu? there is no script in /etc/init.d/
[01:49] <IntuitiveNipple> Dexter_Holland: Ahhh, I see. Does the PC not have a wired connection you could use temporarily?
[01:50] <Aaron_Mason> hey all, having issues with trying to mount smb shares... it says "bad superblock etc" and dmesg says "smb_fill_super: missing data argument" - any ideas? the command is "mount -t smbfs //192.168.20.2/F /home/ubuntu/d"
[01:50] <Dexter_Holland> IntuitiveNipple, nooooo ;<
[01:50] <BadManNx> hi
[01:50] <zlx> is there a way to change icons of shortcuts on the desktop?
[01:50] <digital_k> zlx:just right click and go into the properties of the icon
[01:51] <Frogzoo> Aaron_Mason: don't mount samba manually, just add the samba mount to /etc/fstab
[01:51] <Aaron_Mason> Frogzoo: ok will try
[01:51] <k1gwb> my /var/log/messages is FULL of "Unknown key pressed (translated set 2, code 0xd9 on isa0060/serio0)"....using microsoft :-X wirless comfort keyboard, which i love....what do i do? :)
[01:51] <BadManNx> yes zlx right click on the icon, or you can download, install and choose an icons pack
[01:51] <digital_k> when the dialogue opens, click on the icon for it , and it will load other icons to choose from
[01:52] <zlx> digital_k, BadManNx, Theres no where in my properties for me to change the icon ;/
[01:52] <zlx> they are links to folders if that makes a difference
[01:52] <Aaron_Mason> Frogzoo: no good, same error
[01:52] <Trae> I have a 22" LCD I'm hooking up to my laptop.  I can't seem to get the display to do the 1650x1080 rez it does natively.  Can someone help me with this please?
[01:52] <BadManNx> zlx: are you using gnome?
[01:53] <zlx> yep
[01:53] <BadManNx> so i'm talking about launchers
[01:53] <BadManNx> you can change icons for them
[01:53] <Frogzoo> Aaron_Mason: from the mount man page "Just like nfs, the smbfs implementation expects a binary argument (a struct smb_mount_data) to the mount system call. This argument is constructed by smbmount(8) and the current version of mount (2.12) does not know anything about smbfs.
[01:53] <Aaron_Mason> ok
[01:53] <BadManNx> for folders you can choose an icons set zlx
[01:53] <Frogzoo> Aaron_Mason: so best use smbmount I guess
[01:54] <Kaso> When i try to open a lua file ubuntu warns me that its a VHDL Document and wont let me open it, but im pretty sure its lua seeing as i wrote it. http://kasoo.net/img/imgs/luawierdness.png
[01:55] <anathematic> how do i change permissions on a file?
[01:55] <SasquatchNL> gcosmin, set it in the interfaces file
[01:55] <Frogzoo> chmod
[01:55] <erUSUL> gcosmin_: edit /etc/network/interfaces and add the settings there
[01:55] <zlx> BadManNx: iv got an icon set but I just want to change these launchers to different icons but i can't see that in properties
[01:55] <Trae> Can anyone see my typing?
[01:55] <Aaron_Mason> gcosmin_: what kind of settings are we talking about? firewall, IP address.?
[01:55] <Aaron_Mason> Trae: nope
[01:55] <orbin> Trae: no
[01:55] <Trae> lol
[01:55] <jscinoz> hey guys
[01:55] <magnetron> anathematic: right click and choose preferences
[01:55] <erUSUL> anathematic: rightclick on it choose properties permisions
[01:55] <anathematic> magnetron: + erUSUL in console sorry
[01:56] <anathematic> :D
[01:56] <jscinoz> where is the icon for desktop in the places menu and for the show desktop button in the panel stored?
[01:56] <erUSUL> anathematic: chmod
[01:56] <SasquatchNL>  I want to see what ssid I'm associated with, how can I return only the ssid? I tried "iwconfig eth1
[01:56] <SasquatchNL>  damn enter
[01:56] <Aaron_Mason> ok, so why wasn't smbfs included in Dapper...?
[01:56] <IgorSobreira> in witch file can i put an alias?
[01:56] <anathematic> erUSUL:  could you give me an example of permissions to full access sorry?
[01:56] <SasquatchNL>  I tried iwconfig eth1 | grep ESSID" but I get the whole line including IEEE stuff
[01:56] <Lounge> i used that Aegis scanner and it came up "w32/magistr.a@mm virus found" just about everywhere on my system..
[01:57] <magnetron> Aaron_Mason: smbfs is not actively maintained anymore, use cifs instead
[01:57] <Gerro> when I do ctrl alt f1 on my 64 bit nvidia xubuntu feisty, the lower half of the screen is blurred and the top left is glitchy...
[01:57] <ubuntu> hello, is there any french here ?
[01:57] <Lounge> i was wondering if that's a false positive
[01:57] <magnetron> !fr | ubuntu
[01:57] <john> i'm using edubuntu64,and i found it better than kubuntu64...
[01:57] <ubotu> ubuntu: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[01:57] <erUSUL> anathematic: what are you trying to do? changing system files permisions is not wise maybe there is a better way to achieve what you want
[01:57] <ubuntu> thanks
[01:57] <Gerro> ubuntu: I can speak some french
[01:57] <Gerro> ubuntu: umm wee?
[01:58] <erUSUL> !fr | ubuntu
[01:58] <john> i can speak chinese....
[01:58] <anathematic> erUSUL: this is for a webserver and i wis to enable it so people can view the contents of a folder without an index file
[01:58] <ubuntu> thanks, goodbye all
[01:58] <daupgrader> hello!!
[01:58] <Gerro> john: heh enough to order some beef and broccoli with eggrolls I bet :P
[01:58] <daupgrader> may I upgrade from Dapper to Feisty?
[01:58] <Trae> Should I expect to be able to use my LCD at it's native rez with a laptop running 7.04?
[01:58] <daupgrader> with a simple sed and dist-upgrade?
[01:58] <daupgrader> thanks in advance :)
[01:58] <Gerro> daupgrader: no you can't I think
[01:59] <magnetron> daupgrader: you need to upgrade to edgy first
[01:59] <SasquatchNL>  I want to see what ssid I'm associated with, how can I return only the ssid? I tried "iwconfig eth1 | grep SSID" but I get the whole line with IEEE 802.11g, how can I get the ssid only?
[01:59] <daupgrader> oh.. ok ;)
[01:59] <daupgrader> thanks
[01:59] <freedom> 3ks
[01:59] <daupgrader> it is needed?
[01:59] <daupgrader> what appens else?
[01:59] <erUSUL> anathematic: change the folder permision to root or www-data iirc
[01:59] <IntuitiveNipple> SasquatchNL: You might want to use awk to extract just that bit
[01:59] <nate__> what is the best kernel to use for a core duo
[02:00] <Frogzoo> magnetron: how do you mount cifs, is there an equivalent to smbmount?
[02:00] <Kaso> Why does my ubutnu think my lua source files are VHDL, and thus wont let me open due to the conflicting extensions, im pretty sure its lua seeing as i wrote it. http://kasoo.net/img/imgs/luawierdness.png
[02:00] <daupgrader> thanks :)
[02:00] <SasquatchNL>  intuitivenipple, so awk instead of grep, or something else?
[02:00] <erUSUL> anathematic: sudo chown www-data:www-data folder/
[02:00] <Frogzoo> nate__: stock
[02:00] <magnetron> Frogzoo: just use mount
[02:00] <anathematic> erUSUL:  ahh thank you i was about to ask  for an example :)
[02:00] <IntuitiveNipple> SasquatchNL: Yes, with awk you can match a regular expression and then print the match out simply using '{ print $1; }'
[02:01] <SasquatchNL>  intuitivenipple, thanks, I want to map my network config based on ssid, I think I can get it working with that
[02:01] <Frogzoo> magnetron: ah, sneaky, thx
[02:01] <Trae> Does anyone know of any documentation you could point me to to help me figure out how to get my 22" LCD screen, I've hooked up to my laptop to work at it's native resolution (1680x1050) to work with my Ubuntu 7.04 installation?  Not sure where to go on this one.
[02:01] <TakeOut{u}> Trae
[02:01] <TakeOut{u}> when you did the install
[02:01] <IntuitiveNipple> SasquatchNL: Awk can be a bit mind-numbing to start with, but there's plenty of simply tutorials with useful examples if you Google
[02:02] <Trae> TakeOut{u}: about an hour ago
[02:02] <TakeOut{u}> didn't it ask you which resolutions you wanted to add ?
[02:02] <tondar> hello all
[02:02] <SasquatchNL>  Trae, make sure you have your driver installed, then you can edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:02] <SasquatchNL>  thanks intuitiveNipple
[02:02] <Trae> no it never asked that question.  about resolutions
[02:02] <tondar> is virtualbox like vmware where you have to install vmware-tools for it? does it have something like it?
[02:02] <SasquatchNL>  Trae, you can set resolutions in xorg.conf
[02:03] <Trae> :/
[02:03] <Trae> isn't there a gui tool?
[02:03] <Frogzoo> SasquatchNL: perl too is good
[02:03] <SasquatchNL>  not that I know of acutal
[02:03] <Trae> :(
[02:03] <k1gwb> if you have nvidia then sorta ;)
[02:03] <Trae> it's 2007 for petes sake lol
[02:03] <john> before set xorg.conf, you must backup your xorg.conf
[02:03] <SasquatchNL>  Trae, I haven't looked for one
[02:04] <tondar> anyone?
[02:04] <tondar> is virtualbox like vmware where you have to install vmware-tools for it? does it have something like it?
[02:04] <oldude67> how would i know if i have to defrag my computer?
[02:04] <erUSUL> anathematic: does it work?
[02:04] <Trae> Isn't anyone tired of messing with config files for X yet?  I've been using Linux for 11 years, and I know I am.  *sigh*
[02:04] <john> i also want to know this  question
[02:04] <anathematic> erUSUL:  no it came up with "chown: `www-data:www-data': invalid user"
[02:04] <k1gwb> might i recommend  "keytouch" for anyone with extra buttons on the keyboard....works much better than the default gnome programs :)
[02:04] <Frogzoo> oldude67: if you're running linux, you don't
[02:04] <TakeOut{u}> why does everyone say it doesn't ask them for the resolutions when they install
[02:05] <anathematic> so i just used "sudo chmod music -w" lol
[02:05] <TakeOut{u}> it does ask for it
[02:05] <tondar> Trae: hey maybe I could make a gui for it?
[02:05] <modern> hi
[02:05] <Pici> oldude67: Theres no need to defrag with the ext2/3 filesystem
[02:05] <erUSUL> oldude67: no defrag in linux... http://geekblog.oneandoneis2.org/index.php/2006/08/17/why_doesn_t_linux_need_defragmenting
[02:05] <TakeOut{u}> http://www.mrbass.org/linux/ubuntu/install/018xorgconfig.png
[02:05] <erUSUL> anathematic: use root then instead of www-data...
[02:05] <k1gwb> omg....it never occurred to me that you don't have to defrag.....i've never DONE it....but i never really thought about it.  haha!
[02:05] <anathematic> kk
[02:05] <tondar> Trae: what is it that you want? in the GUI
[02:05] <oldude67> frogzoo: ok i just was wondering cause i already have 12 gig of hard drive used and was wondering if it was programming or just me with to much stuff on it...
[02:05] <flake> Pici - there is a checkdisk though, after so many mounts..
[02:05] <Gerro> TakeOut{u}: mmm ubuntu babes :)
[02:06] <TakeOut{u}> lol
[02:06] <flake> you can force it by setting some count and then rebooting
[02:06] <Pici> flake: But thats a not a defrag. fsck != defrag
[02:06] <Trae> tondar: heh, I just want to be able to switch on a laptop to an extra display without touching xorg.conf
[02:06] <flake> true
[02:06] <tondar> Trae: dual monitor?
[02:06] <aa_> hi, sound works fine, but when I try to use a library pymedia, it cannot play any sound... pymedia.audio.sound.SoundError: Cannot create sound object. Error text is: 16, Device or resource busy at OPEN
[02:06] <Trae> tondar: I mean, I'm just plugging in a display, I'm not doing anything fancy here
[02:07] <aa_> is this something to do with esd grabbing my sound card?
[02:07] <tondar> Trae: oh ic
[02:07] <Trae> tondar: not duel just having it use that as a display
[02:07] <Trae> :/
[02:07] <john> setup nvidia-settings
[02:07] <tondar> Trae: ok got it
[02:07] <john> apt-get install nvidia-settings
[02:07] <oldude67> ok i guess i should ask how do i clean up the hard drive for junk files?
[02:07] <Trae> let me see what this laptop has for video sec
[02:07] <tondar> Trae: what do you have to edit in config file inorder to accomplish your job?
[02:07] <modern> no
[02:08] <rickympl> hello
[02:08] <Trae> tondar: I have no idea :(
[02:08] <tondar> Trae: oh
[02:08] <Trae> tondar: that's why I'm trying to get help :)
[02:08] <tondar> Trae: maybe you could find out for me so I could make it into a simple GUI
[02:08] <rellik> is there a way to hold down some key to increase scroll-wheel speed?
[02:08] <tondar> Trae: I need to know the procedure, lol
[02:08] <jrib> rellik: in firefox or in general?
[02:09] <k1gwb> when are we going to have relational db filesystems? and is or isn't that a good idea?
[02:09] <Trae>  Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/GMS/910GML Express Graphics
[02:09] <rellik> jrib, in general preferrably, but firefox if not
[02:09] <Trae> that's what I have on my laptop
[02:09] <Trae> and without the LCD it works fine
[02:09] <Trae> just using the default display ont he laptop
[02:09] <rickympl> i am not getting identd responses, i have oidentd installed and port 113 open on firestarter and forwarded from router to pc
[02:09] <gcosmin_> how can i see if my sshd is ON or not
[02:10] <gcosmin_> ?
[02:10] <Trae> but when I hook it up to my 22" display, it only does 1280x860 (or whatever)
[02:10] <jrib> rellik: k, I don't know how in general, but in firefox, you can go to about:config and filter on "scroll".  You should see some options about lines to scroll withaltkey or withctrlkey
[02:10] <rellik> gcosmin_, telnet localhost 22
[02:10] <VSpike> Trying to install 7.04 on an old laptop, but it won't recognise the CDROM drive when it gets to the point where it tries to mount it.  What should I do?
[02:10] <VSpike> I'm using an alternative CD
[02:10] <Trae> I think there needs to be a line for the rez hmmm
[02:10] <Trae> bah ok let me see if I can add that in xorg.conf
[02:10] <Trae> *sigh*
[02:11] <tondar> Trae: basically you want to make ubuntu to understand that you are using a 22'' lcd so you could get a desired resolution ;)
[02:11] <piedoggie> two questions: I'm trying to interpret the output of top.  am I correct in assuming the 'wa%' refers to waiting for disk I/O?   q2: need to monitor load average on multiple machines and get a graph over time.  Hopefully this should be trivial to set up (ha :-)
[02:11] <djay-il> I'd like to intall an ubuntu server on x3850 but it crashes on start. Anyone can help?
[02:12] <aa_> hmm, does feisty use straight alsa?
[02:12] <SasquatchNL>  Trae, did you search with google on multiple display ubuntu or something?
[02:12] <spiney> im having a bit of a problem here, i need a start a second Xserver but my computer freezes, it changes screens but the screen stays black and theres a blinking pointer on it, sometimes it works but not very often
[02:13] <rangeles> hello everyone
[02:13] <jscinoz> where is the icon for desktop in the places menu and for the show desktop button in the panel stored?
[02:13] <Trae> SasquatchNL: not yet might do that next.  I added a line in xorg.conf let me see if that works  bbiab
[02:13] <Noparse> Hello I am back.
[02:13] <rangeles> I'm having some issues with my sound output does anyone know how to fix this issue
[02:13] <SasquatchNL>  Trae, I think it's best to see what google has, I'm sure there is an answer to your question
[02:13] <Noparse> Not only did Ubuntu not install, the Ubuntu disc is now in 2 pieces from my anger. I am never touching that stupid operating system again.
[02:13] <rangeles> the sound sounds all messed up
[02:13] <Noparse> Error after error.
[02:14] <rangeles> seems like is a driver issue
[02:14] <rsl_> Is there any reason Sound Juicer should use 100% processor??
[02:14] <oldude67> is there away to tell on the hard drive what is programming and what is free space ?
[02:15] <rangeles> I'm using RhythemBox Music Player
[02:15] <Trae> hmm
[02:16] <Trae> I guess: System > Preferences > Screen Resolution isn't read by xorg.conf
[02:16] <jrib> Noparse: did you verify the cd?
[02:17] <magnetron> SasquatchNL: iwconfig eth1 | perl -e '<STDIN> =~ m/ESSID:(.*) / ;print $1'
[02:17] <spiney> im having a bit of a problem here, i need to start a second Xserver but my computer freezes, it changes screens but the screen stays black and theres a blinking pointer on it, sometimes it works but not very often. ive had this happen since early versions of ubuntu, it freezes completely so theres nothing in the X log afterwards
[02:18] <IntuitiveNipple> magnetron: He's gone
[02:18] <farion> hi, i want to compile my own kernel on gutsy - works fine - but now i want to add the modules from linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.22 - how can i choose them in make menuconfig?
[02:18] <magnetron> IntuitiveNipple: ah
[02:18] <IntuitiveNipple> magnetron: SasquatchNL... gone
[02:18] <IdleOne> Noparse, maybe you want to try a different distro like Mandriva or SuSe. although I believe Ubuntu is probably one of the better distros
[02:18] <magnetron> IntuitiveNipple: AH
[02:19] <IntuitiveNipple> :) He beat me to it, too
[02:19] <magnetron> IntuitiveNipple: is it possible to leave him a memo on this server?
[02:19] <jscinoz> where is the icon for desktop in the places menu and for the show desktop button in the panel stored?
[02:20] <rangeles> so no luck on the sound issue
[02:20] <nergo> anyone here?
[02:20] <defcon> yo wut is a good code editor for ubuntu that highlights code
[02:20] <flake> is there a hot key that will pull up the kde menu, like the start menu in the windows os
[02:20] <IntuitiveNipple> magnetron: He's not registered with nickserv either
[02:20] <jrib> defcon: gedit, vim
[02:20] <flake> or can i assign one
[02:21] <spiney> defcon gedit does that
[02:21] <defcon> gedit highlights
[02:21] <magnetron> nergo: about 1200 users
[02:21] <defcon> hmm
[02:21] <defcon> thnx
[02:21] <reubs> hey people, I am having trouble getting a meta key to register. I'm still a n00b but i have googled about, use the 'esc' key to get meta but I want to make my alt keys work the way they should.. can someone point me in the right direction?
[02:21] <spiney> defcon but you might want to try screem
[02:21] <defcon> ok
[02:21] <Noparse> [22:16:57]  <jrib> Noparse: did you verify the cd? - Can't now it is in 2 pieces
[02:21] <Noparse> Because its a piece of crap
[02:21] <k1gwb> I think ubuntu would benefit from a loner release cycle :(
[02:22] <k1gwb> longer, I mean
[02:22] <Noparse> I also happened to capture the whole thing on camera. Which I will be uploading to youtube shortly
[02:22] <jrib> Noparse: I don't really understand teh scrollback.  Before you were in here saying you installed ubuntu and needed wireless to work
[02:22] <IntuitiveNipple> You don't have to upgrade :p
[02:22] <LCannon> How can I install Ubuntu on a laptop that all ready has WinXP?  What's the best method?
[02:22] <Frogzoo> defcon: emacs for code is nice, as is vim
[02:22] <IdleOne> Noparse, you had a bad experience with Ubuntu it happens but it is possible it was of your doing. if the iso wasnt burned properly or maybe it was corrupted then it wouldnt install
[02:22] <john> cdrom setup
[02:23] <nergo> heh how do i install ubuntu from a live CD if the GUI part of it fails
[02:23] <Pici> LCannon: Put the cd in, let the installer resize the partitions and you're all set
[02:23] <Noparse> jrib: I said I had previously installed it and it didnt work.
[02:23] <spiney> LCannon : http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[02:23] <The_Alexander> hello. can You help me? I need a complex video editor for linux: I need to cut, paste, change size, format, add subtitles, make audio noiser or quieter, add new audio track etc...? Kino supports only raw camera data, not AVI or MPEG, PiTiVi cant cut and has very little options, and Avidemux i quite hard to use.
[02:23] <zdzichuBG> hi. anyone knows how to initiate hibernation via gnome-power-manager from commandline?
[02:23] <Noparse> (the internet)
[02:23] <LCannon> So select "Guided - resize.."?
[02:23] <Pici> nergo: Simple answer, you cant.  You'll need to use the alternative CD.
[02:23] <spiney> LCannon : http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[02:23] <Noparse> Just then it wouldnt even install
[02:23] <nergo> dammit
[02:23] <Noparse> Gave me some crap.
[02:23] <k1gwb> wubi is gonna be amazing when it's done and stable!!
[02:23] <nergo> i was afraid of that
[02:23] <Noparse> It was a live cd.
[02:23] <nergo> wierd thing is the cd passed the test cd bit
[02:24] <Frogzoo> The_Alexander: there is another video editor for linux - ah... thinks...
[02:24] <LCannon> Got the link for Wubi.  Checking it out... Thanks.
[02:24] <IntuitiveNipple> Celerra ?
[02:24] <The_Alexander> Frogonzoo: which one?
[02:24] <spiney> LCannon : NP
[02:24] <nergo> been trying to get a distro of klinux on my new system for the last 48 hours
[02:24] <nergo> tried opensuse first
[02:24] <The_Alexander> Frogzoo: which one?
[02:24] <IntuitiveNipple> The_Alexander: Cinelerra
[02:24] <nergo> but i always get a freaking boot loader problem
[02:25] <pookey> hey all - what package is 'javac' in ?
[02:25] <jscinoz> The_Alexander, try kino or avidemux
[02:25] <spiney> the new kernel is suppossed to have awesome NTFS though, so i see wubi getting good really quick :)
[02:25] <Frogzoo> The_Alexander: Jahshaka - dunno if it's in ubuntu yet

[02:29] <Trae> IdleOne: danke
[02:29] <IdleOne> pookey, dapper was 5.10
[02:29] <pookey> oh dear, this is a little out of date then ;)
[02:29] <pookey> feisty == 7 ?

[02:29] <IdleOne> pookey, a little but you can install sun-java5-jre on dapper

[02:30] <spiney> gcosmin_ are you sure the service is running?
[02:30] <tondar> does virtuallbox need any other packages to be installed ? like the vmware-tools for vmware?
[02:30] <pookey> IdleOne: very good fo you, thanks
[02:31] <john> i use vmware
[02:31] <spiney> gcosmin_ try using network-admin to set up your eth0
[02:31] <tondar> john: yeah I do too
[02:31] <padee> hi everyone. does anybody know, how to fix windows in size and position on every workspace? tnx for any hints...
[02:31] <tondar> john: but you need to install the vmware-tools for it
[02:31] <spiney> gcosmin_ though i dont see why it would not be working...
[02:31] <john> yes

[02:32] <johnm1019> Im hvaing a real problem getting a dhcp lease on our wired network here at the office.  It worked for the first day just fine, and im on the wireless now which is working (even tho i have a broadom adapter), but yesterday after a reboot my network stopped working, running dhclient manually does nothing, and although the networkmanager says after 30 seconds im connected, going to connection info all i see is 0.0.0.0 and of course no ping commands or f
[02:32] <johnm1019> f.  What can i do to 'reset' all my netork setting so they are like whatever worked when i first plugged in and was on for a few hours?
[02:32] <spiney> gcosmin_ do ps -fe|grep sshd in a terminal and tell me if sshd is running
[02:32] <IdleOne> pookey, yes . not a good idea to leepfrog versions
[02:33] <IntuitiveNipple> johnm1019: Can you run tests on the DHCP server to establish if it is hearing the DHCP client request?
[02:33] <varka> IdleOne: leepfrog? has it the same meaning like "skip"?
[02:33] <spiney> im having a bit of a problem here, i need to start a second Xserver but my computer freezes, it changes screens but the screen stays black and theres a blinking pointer on it, sometimes it works but not very often. ive had this happen since early versions of ubuntu, it freezes completely so theres nothing in the X log afterwards
[02:33] <johnm1019> IntuitiveNipple: gosh no :-\
[02:34] <IdleOne> varka, yes exactly
[02:34] <varka> IdleOne: hehe, funny expression
[02:34] <Lacrymology> sorry, I have the most stupid problem in the world: my keyboard doesn't have a... thing I can't write because my keyboard doesn't have it.. the thing that represents home
[02:34] <HoocH_LAP> I love Ubuntu :P hehe
[02:34] <phy2> spiney, why do you want to run a second X ?
[02:35] <Kaso> Why does my ubutnu think my lua source files are VHDL, and thus wont let me open due to the conflicting extensions, im pretty sure its lua seeing as i wrote it. http://kasoo.net/img/imgs/luawierdness.png
[02:35] <IntuitiveNipple> johnm1019: Okay. Have you examined the settings in /etc/network/interfaces ?
[02:35] <spiney> phy2 because i want to run the couple of games that i play in it and for vmware i thought it could be useful
[02:36] <Willbert> het can anyone help me with a startup message > (ACPI: Unable to locate RSDP)
[02:36] <johnm1019> IntuitiveNipple: Yes, after having issues with my wireless initially (several months ago) i came across a post that had me comment everything in that file out, its worked flawlessly since, wired and wireless connections.  The reason im confused is because i was getting a lease and working on the inet over the same lan cable im using now just earlier
[02:36] <tikka> anyone know how to check if my cpu is VT capable?
[02:36] <Lacrymology> spiney, you usually can't, but why a second X? other workspaces?
[02:37] <padee> ahm... any desktop specialists around?
[02:37] <Willbert> tikka: whats your bios?
[02:37] <IntuitiveNipple> johnm1019: Is the PC still connected to the wired link? I'm wondering if the default root is still set to go via that interface?
[02:38] <spiney> phy2 because it would let me switch back to my desktop while im still playing and i need to run vmware fulscreen stretched over two monitors
[02:38] <Lacrymology> q
[02:38] <Lacrymology> 
[02:38] <mantas> how can i start glassfish when system starts?
[02:38] <johnm1019> i have the cable unplugged atm but its here
[02:38] <IntuitiveNipple> johnm1019: Try "route" and see what it shows
[02:38] <Frogzoo> spiney: use xmodmap to remap Home or KP_Home
[02:38] <tikka> I am unsure, it is some acer branded notebook. the splash is acer branded.
[02:38] <tikka> It is an AMD turion if that helps
[02:38] <spiney> Frogzoo, i dont get you...
[02:38] <tikka> I guess I should reboot and come back ?
[02:39] <johnm1019> IntuitiveNipple: w or w/o wired plugged in?
[02:39] <IntuitiveNipple> johnm1019:  the TCP/IP routing itself wouldn't affect things, but it might give a clue as to why you're not getting a lease
[02:39] <spiney> Frogzoo, why would i do that exactly?
[02:39] <Trae> weeee
[02:39] <IntuitiveNipple> johnm1019: try both, just so you know what they look like :)
[02:39] <Trae> Ok so that seems to have worked for the most part
[02:39] <Trae> lol
[02:39] <spiney> Frogzoo , this is suppossed to be astraight forward thing
[02:39] <Trae> IdleOne: thankies :)
[02:39] <tikka> Willbert, I don't know, I can reboot and check. Is there an alternative way of checking from the commandline ?
[02:40] <spiney> as far as i know you can run as many xservers as you want
[02:40] <Willbert> tikka: what model is the notebook?
[02:40] <Frogzoo> spiney: I don't understand why your keyboard doesn't have a Home key, but you can remap something else - but this sounds like a non standard keyboard
[02:40] <spiney> that wasnt me
[02:40] <spiney> im having a bit of a problem here, i need to start a second Xserver but my computer freezes, it changes screens but the screen stays black and theres a blinking pointer on it, sometimes it works but not very often. ive had this happen since early versions of ubuntu, it freezes completely so theres nothing in the X log afterwards

[02:41] <phy2> Spiney, have you ever successfully run two instances of X ?
[02:41] <tikka> Lacrymology, using a jabber client and connecting to google talk network
[02:41] <spiney> phy2 sometimes it works
[02:42] <spiney> phy2 its an ubuntu thing
[02:42] <phy2> ok

[02:43] <t94xr-lappy> tappaja, Find a swtich that you know is working and test it
[02:43] <t94xr-lappy> and move ur one to that working one

[02:43] <tikka> tappaja, i have seen it before when a pc connected to the work switch it would lock up.. it was always the same machine too. very odd. we didn't investigate further

[02:44] <spiney> mcn06, the text size does seem different under linux
[02:44] <spiney> mcn06, but it can be changed

[02:45] <spiney> mcn06, yet everything looks cramped doesnt it
[02:45] <spiney> mcn06, the only way out is to use larger text
[02:45] <mcn06> hmm, not really sure how to explain it
[02:45] <spiney> mcn06, no, i know what you mean

[03:02] <nero678> priest i do
[03:02] <aro> There is no better
[03:02] <aro> It's preference

[03:04] <Gerro> aptitude sooo pwnz :)
[03:05] <Kaso> Why does my ubutnu think my lua source files are VHDL, and thus wont let me open due to the conflicting extensions, im pretty sure its lua seeing as i wrote it. http://kasoo.net/img/imgs/luawierdness.png
[03:05] <Refugee> hi guys
[03:06] <Trixsey> Is there any bleeding edge repositories for Ubuntu?
[03:07] <erUSUL> Kaso: maybe you have instaled a vhdl editor/compiler that has messed with file assoc...
[03:07] <IntuitiveNipple> Kaso: In Nautilus select a lua file, right-click, choose Properties, and then change the "Open With" setting
[03:07] <mattwalston> what are the libnss-ldap and libpam-ldap packages named in dapper?
[03:08] <Willbert> nero??
[03:12] <jrib> Kaso: see if it happens on a live cd (or upload the file and let someone else download it), that would help you figure out if it was because of some modification you made to the system or if it was just a bug
[03:13] <shortm> \nickname shindig
[03:13] <Kaso> ill upload it now gimme a sec, Its no-longer erroring after i set the Open With but it still thinks the mime type is text/x-vhdl somethings not quite right
[03:14] <tikka> Willbert, hiya, all i can say is its pheonix bios. something to 2005.
[03:14] <Willbert> kk PM
[03:14] <Kaso> jrib, http://kasoo.net/filez/core.lua check if you wish to check it out.
[03:14] <Gerro> tikka: hmm?
[03:14] <u2k7> hi, is there any linuxdcpp package available for ubuntu?
[03:15] <Willbert> tikka: PM
[03:15] <DangerZONE> helo
[03:16] <jrib> Kaso: interesting, gnomevfs-info says "MIME type         : text/x-lua" but right-click -> properties in nautilus says "text/x-vhdl"
[03:16] <DangerZONE> If line "Disallow:" must be in file robots.txt on server ?? I want to block nothing.
[03:17] <Kaso> hmm, perhaps its a bug then jrib guess i should report it
[03:17] <Beauty> Evening.
[03:18] <jrib> Kaso: yeah, I would.  I thought nautilus just used gnomevfs
[03:18] <yasuoiwakura> can anyone tell me an url of the vmware-player package so i can downloadit and install to my debian?
[03:19] <Kaso> only some of my scripts are coming up as VHDL im gonna try and see what differentiates them perhaps work out what causes it
[03:19] <yasuoiwakura> i mean the .deb
[03:19] <jrib> yasuoiwakura: #debian for debian help
[03:19] <yasuoiwakura> jrib: im asking for the ubuntu package
[03:19] <jrib> yasuoiwakura: packages.ubuntu.com
[03:19] <yasuoiwakura> there is no debian-package
[03:19] <yasuoiwakura> thx ill look
[03:20] <Filthpig> yasuoiwakura: you can get vmware with apt, too
[03:20] <yasuoiwakura> Filthpig: how?
[03:20] <cal_> Hi I installed ubuntu, then edubuntu and now I have the edubuntu splash screen at boot, how can I get back to the ubuntu one?
[03:20] <daupgrader> hello
[03:21] <Filthpig> yasuoiwakura: have you enabled all repositories?
[03:21] <jrib> !usplash > cal_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:21] <woekele> hello, how can I request a application to be added to the universe respository? :)
[03:21] <daupgrader> hello, I've just upgraded from Dap to Edgy
[03:21] <ziggy23> Is it possible to create a directory in Nautilus?
[03:21] <jrib> !packaging > woekele (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:21] <Pici> !addpackage | woekele
[03:21] <yasuoiwakura> Filthpig: im using debian
[03:21] <daupgrader> but now the whole shell interface is in English
[03:21] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about addpackage - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:21] <Pici> hm
[03:22] <yasuoiwakura> so i need to download the ubuntu-package manually
[03:22] <daupgrader> what can I do to switch it again to Italian, as it was before upgrading?
[03:22] <daupgrader> thanks in advance :)
[03:22] <Pici> woekele: disregard that, I thought there was a factoid.
[03:22] <Filthpig> hm
[03:22] <jrib> daupgrader: hmm, cehcked /etc/environment?
[03:22] <Pici> !newpackage > woekele
[03:22] <cal_> thanks, that helps some but I also want to change the other splash screen, i.e. the one you get after you login, the small one to the standard ubuntu one
[03:23] <Filthpig> I'm sure debian has vmware in apt, too
[03:23] <daupgrader> jrib, /etc/enviroment?
[03:23] <orbin> ziggy23: depends on where you wish to create it
[03:23] <daupgrader> it doesn't seem to exit
[03:23] <RedACE> I just got this error in my terminal: idkfa kernel: [  354.283228]  journal commit I/O error
[03:23] <jrib> !splash > cal_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:23] <Filthpig> but you better hear with the debian guys
[03:23] <woekele> tnx Pichu0102 and jrib
[03:23] <RedACE> and it seems / has been remounted as ro
[03:23] <Filthpig> #debian , i guess
[03:23] <jrib> daupgrader: you forgot an 'n'
[03:23] <orbin> ziggy23: otherwise, file > create folder
[03:23] <daupgrader> jrib, yes sorry :D
[03:24] <daupgrader> PATH="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin/X11$

[03:24] <daupgrader> LANGUAGE="it_IT:it:en_GB:en"
[03:24] <daupgrader> I have this
[03:24] <RedACE> I just got this error in my terminal: "idkfa kernel: [  354.283228]  journal commit I/O error" and / has been remounted read-only.
[03:24] <BleSS> does anybody has installed libpgsql-ruby1.8 (needs libpq4) with postgresql-8.2 (uses libpq5)?
[03:24] <ziggy23> create folder is grayed out!
[03:24] <jrib> daupgrader: and if you 'echo $LANG $LANGUAGE' it has IT stuff?
 ziggy23: depends on where you wish to create it
[03:25] <daupgrader> jrib, yes it does
[03:26] <ziggy23> I want to create it in /usr/local/ssl/certs
[03:26] <jrib> daupgrader: try 'export LANGUAGE="it_IT:it"' just to see if it matters
[03:27] <RedACE> I just got this error in my terminal: "idkfa kernel: [  354.283228]  journal commit I/O error" and / has been remounted read-only.
[03:27] <Heroin> how can i mount a .iso file?
[03:27] <daupgrader> jrib, yeahhh
[03:27] <daupgrader> perfect ;);)
[03:28] <Heroin> just mount ...ISO mntpoint?
[03:28] <icebreeze> every time i launch half life 2 in wine it seems to change my screen refresh rate.  Is there any way to stop that ?
[03:28] <daupgrader> jrib, gonna do it on nano
[03:29] <Heroin> icebreeze what window manager are u using?
[03:29] <Heroin> icebreeze because when i run halflife1 w. wine w. beryl it scewsup but w. fluxbox its like a charm
[03:29] <sahil> hey i need some help installing an Anti-Virus ??
[03:29] <RedACE> I just got this error in my terminal: "idkfa kernel: [  354.283228]  journal commit I/O error" and / has been remounted read-only.
[03:30] <Heroin> sahil linux doesnt have any virus probelms.. or use an online scanner
[03:30] <drarem> do i have to worry about evil vnc
[03:30] <icebreeze> Heroin: i'm using the default gnome window manager (i believe called metacity).
[03:30] <defecacy> sahil..which anti virus you using
[03:30] <sahil> i know that, but I have a lot of interaction with Windows, that why i need it
[03:30] <Heroin> icebreeze yah well w. metacity i kept having the menu bar being fucked up
[03:30] <defecacy> sahil, i just installed clamav
[03:30] <sahil> i am not using any anti-virus, but i want to use one
[03:30] <ububtujustin> Anyone know anything about dual booting windows and ubuntu with grub??? I have in the past with debian which worked ok but for ubuntu when trying to start windows it is coming up with "Starting Up" and wont proceed :(
[03:30] <defecacy> you can try that
[03:31] <sahil> i need some help, i am new to Ubuntu
[03:31] <icebreeze> Heroin: that doesn't give me much information..
[03:31] <MenZa> !antivirus
[03:31] <defecacy> ubuntujustin: i thought grub is the default bootloader for ubuntu
[03:31] <ubotu> antivirus is something you don't really need on Linux, unless you serve windows clients. ClamAV and aegis are decent linux virusscanners. Also see !linuxvirus
[03:31] <ububtujustin> it is
[03:31] <ububtujustin> but it doesnt boot windows
[03:31] <sahil> !antivirus
[03:31] <ububtujustin> i had to use my  windows disk and restore the mbr to get back in
[03:31] <ububtujustin> it used to work with my debian installation
[03:31] <defecacy> type !linuxvirus
[03:31] <ububtujustin> with the default settings
[03:32] <sahil> !linuxvirus
[03:32] <ubotu> The short life and hard times of a Linux Virus http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[03:32] <defecacy> ububtujustin: mine adds windows as one of the options when i installed ubuntu
[03:32] <usser>  http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[03:33] <ububtujustin> mine has the option for windows there
[03:33] <ububtujustin> but when i select it all it says is "Starting up"
[03:33] <ububtujustin> but ubuntu boots fine :S
[03:33] <icebreeze> also when gdm starts it stars in the wrong resolution but when i log in it changes to the correct one
[03:34] <defecacy> ubutujustin: did you change the grub.conf at /boot/ ?
[03:34] <ububtujustin> no i havent tried that yet
[03:34] <ububtujustin> because i dont know what any of it means
[03:34] <ububtujustin> debian worked with default isntallation
[03:34] <ububtujustin> i was hoping ubuntu would too ;)
[03:35] <defecacy> check that the entry for "root" is the correct disk
[03:35] <daupgrader> ububtujustin, what do you need?
[03:35] <defecacy> mine is (hd0,0)
[03:35] <ububtujustin> mine says hd0,1
[03:36] <ububtujustin> then the next line says hd1,0
[03:36] <ububtujustin> then chainloader
[03:36] <he1> hello.  I've just installed 7.04 on an intel mac mini.  I'm using BenQ FP71G+ monitor and the resolutions I can use are limited to: 1024x768, 800x600, 640x468.  OSX worked in 1280x1024.  I've removed all resolutions except 1280x1024 from xorg.conf and restarted gdm, but it didn't help, it's still 1024x768.  please help me ;)
[03:36] <defecacy> you have 2 physical harddisks?
[03:36] <ububtujustin> i have 3
[03:36] <ububtujustin> with 2 windows partitions
[03:36] <ububtujustin> and 1 ubuntu (ex debian)
[03:36] <daupgrader> remember that the first partition
[03:36] <daupgrader> is hd0,0
[03:36] <ububtujustin> debian would load the windows boot loader when selecting the option
[03:36] <daupgrader> where the first 0 is the hard drive number
[03:37] <ububtujustin> but ubuntu does not
[03:37] <Mortuis> Anyone know of a good command-line bittorrent client?
[03:37] <defecacy> 1st partition on the 1st physical disk
[03:37] <magnetron> Mortuis: rtorrent
[03:37] <Mortuis> magetron: thanks
[03:37] <defecacy> just change the root to whereever your windows partition is
[03:37] <sahil> how do i download Clam Antivirus?
[03:37] <defecacy> go to the website sahil
[03:37] <ububtujustin> ok ill try and brb if it doesnt work ;)
[03:37] <magnetron> sahil: use synaptic
[03:37] <defecacy> yeap
[03:37] <defecacy> apt-get install clamav
[03:38] <defecacy> that should do the trick
[03:38] <sahil> hey it worked :D
[03:38] <sahil> thanks
[03:38] <defecacy> actually..should sudo the command
[03:38] <daupgrader> sahil, you'll be able to choose daemon or cron
[03:38] <daupgrader> to update the clamav db
[03:38] <sahil> whats daemon or cron?
[03:39] <daupgrader> the different kinds of update methods
[03:39] <daupgrader> for ClamAV
[03:39] <sahil> is there an Update button i can click ?
[03:39] <drarem> does clamav run as a service
[03:39] <defecacy> cron is a time-based job.. daemon's just a program running in the background
[03:39] <daupgrader> yeah, you can choose drarem
[03:39] <defecacy> drarem:as a daemon
[03:39] <daupgrader> or as external command
[03:39] <drarem> lol  a daemon
[03:39] <daupgrader> clamscan
[03:40] <daupgrader> but it's better to load the db once
[03:40] <sahil> mine is still downloading, i have slow internet
[03:40] <sahil> 52% is done
[03:40] <daupgrader> isn't it?
[03:40] <defecacy> sahil..i'm installing it into my mac
[03:40] <sahil> yeah loading the db once is good
[03:40] <defecacy> and it's takingages too
[03:40] <sahil> OHH which mac?
[03:40] <Lacrymology> how can I listen to stream radio? xmms lets me open an URL but it's not connecting
[03:40] <sahil> i am getting one in 4 months when leopard is out
[03:40] <defecacy> i have an ibook
[03:41] <defecacy> cool..
[03:41] <sahil> im waiting for a good macbook to come out. I need it for my school
[03:41] <daupgrader> Lacrymology, take a look to apt-get install stramtuner
[03:41] <daupgrader> :)
[03:41] <defecacy> but won't be upgrading till I have seen what extra perks it provides
[03:41] <daupgrader> *streamtuner
[03:41] <flowh> Lacrymology, use mplayer
[03:42] <daupgrader> Lacrymology, before installing streamtuner
[03:42] <defecacy> lacrymology: you can use the default rhythmbox
[03:42] <daupgrader> be sure that mp3 support is installed
[03:42] <defecacy> yeap..
[03:42] <defecacy> that too
[03:42] <Lacrymology> flowh, I DON'T want to use another player if it can be done with xmms. I like xmms, and I hate superfluous software
[03:42] <defecacy> sure..i like xmms too..can just stream via the url?
[03:42] <defecacy> no?
[03:42] <Lacrymology> ok, let me see what I can do with what I have
[03:42] <flowh> ok, Lacrymology, but with xmms i have no exp
[03:43] <Lacrymology> it's supposed
[03:43] <i_is_cat> how much space does a standad ubuntu install take?
[03:43] <Lacrymology> flowh, fair enough
[03:43] <defecacy> trying playing location
[03:43] <defecacy> http://www.live365.com/play/321710?auth=e25d40719effb03ac8314c2bcbb9e41f-1179350419-chubbyparrot&tag=live365&token=7bea303b39de0485e12b1f9d7dd5205d-2013160080200000&sid=218.186.11.2-1179321078382403&lid=no region-sgp&from=pls
[03:43] <defecacy> try playing this
[03:44] <defecacy> works for me
[03:44] <Lacrymology> uhm
[03:44] <Lacrymology> the URL I need to open is an mms protocol
[03:44] <Lacrymology> mms://200.59.146.10/rockandpop-ba
[03:45] <ubuntujustin> :'( still not booting windows :(
[03:45] <vietamine> :)
[03:45] <mattwalston> why is ssh so slow on every ubuntu machine I have tried?
[03:46] <defecacy> ubuntujustin.. still the same problem?
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> title		Windows NT/2000/XP (loader)
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> root		(hd1,0)
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> savedefault
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> map		(hd0) (hd1)
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> map		(hd1) (hd0)
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> chainloader	+1
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> thats what my windows portion of grubmenu is
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> yes same problem :(
[03:46] <Lacrymology> how do I install mp3 support, anyway?
[03:46] <defecacy> what's the map for?
[03:46] <defecacy> let me read up the grub man
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> *SHRUG*
[03:46] <daupgrader> !mp3 > Lacrymology
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> it was setup like that automatically
[03:46] <weston> Lacrymology: I just tried playing an MP3 and it searched online for codecs
[03:46] <ubuntujustin> like i said debian set it up auto fine
[03:47] <ubuntujustin> ubuntu wont :(
[03:47] <mattwalston> ubuntujustin, I have never had to remap for booting windows, what version of windows?
[03:47] <Lightenix> hi, can anyone tell me how to change default charset ?
[03:47] <ubuntujustin> windows xp
[03:47] <ubuntujustin> both boots are windows xp
[03:47] <ubuntujustin> ihavent modified any part of my grub only copy and paste here
[03:47] <mattwalston> ubuntujustin, xp does not care if it sees hd0, kill that
[03:47] <ubuntujustin> it was ubutu tat is mapping it
[03:47] <fluid> ive tried to figure this out over and over again. i have an nforce4 motherboard, feisty, and i really want to be able to use sound from several apps at once. ive followed a guide for setting up dmix, doesnt seem to have worked ... if i start playing mp3s with anything, then run say, ut2004/tremulous/anything, i get no sound in ut2004.
[03:48] <mattwalston> ubuntujustin, oh, well it is not needed, set root, chainload +1, boot
[03:48] <daupgrader> ubuntujustin, is it located on the first partition of second disk?
[03:48] <magnetron> fluid: you need the aoss package
[03:48] <Lacrymology> weston, what program? xmms and VLC play them, but because they have their own decoding system
[03:48] <fluid> thats already installed.
[03:48] <ubuntujustin> yes that is correct daupgrader
[03:48] <defecacy> hmm..
[03:49] <mattwalston> ubuntujustin, try the grub commandline and see what it tells you, hit escape to see screen, press c, then do root (hd1,0), chainloader +1, boot... see what it complains about
[03:49] <magnetron> fluid: then run the software like this: aoss ut2004
[03:49] <fluid> hang on, lemme try starting it with aoss
[03:49] <fluid> lol
[03:49] <fluid> :D

[03:50] <ubuntujustin> just editing now
[03:50] <defecacy> ubuntujustin: which disk is your windows residing?
[03:50] <daupgrader> he said it's the second one
[03:50] <defecacy> it seems it's trying to boot from the second disk
[03:50] <defecacy> yea
[03:50] <fluid> ut2004 didnt work. problem is, for music, i use mpd...
[03:50] <ubuntujustin> ubuntu noob question...what is the default root password as it didnt ask me when isntalling
[03:51] <fluid> mpd starts as a daemon at boot
[03:51] <daupgrader> ubuntujustin, don't worry
[03:51] <daupgrader> just use your current user password
[03:51] <weston> Are there any audio players I can install on Ubuntu that have a library like WMP 11 and iTunes?
[03:51] <idefixx> ubuntujustin: its not set so you cant login to the root acount. use sudo
[03:51] <defecacy> yeap
[03:51] <ben_underscore> weston: amarok
[03:52] <daupgrader> yeah ben_underscore
[03:52] <defecacy> weston: i'm waiting for songbird to be over beta
[03:52] <daupgrader> it looks like itunes :P
[03:52] <Lightenix> anyone here knows how to change default charset?
[03:52] <ben_underscore> weston: or songbird, that is really cool
[03:52] <weston> I tried songbird on Windows... I think it still needs a lot of work but it is really nice.
[03:52] <ubuntujustin> it says i dont have the permissions to becausethe file is owned by root
[03:52] <defecacy> ben_underscore: u used songbird before?
[03:52] <defecacy> its' still in a very beta stage
[03:52] <magnetron> weston: the default player, rhytmbox, has a library
[03:53] <idefixx> ubuntujustin: you have to use 'sudo mycommand' to do something as root
[03:53] <defecacy> sudo vi /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:53] <fluid> i was able to start vlc, and then start ut2004 with sound. is there anyway to get mpd to work?
[03:53] <ben_underscore> defecacy: yes, it's excellent. has a built in podcast player, and is based on firefox xul ui
[03:53] <Lacrymology> daupgrader, somehow the "ubuntu restricted extras" package is not in my ubuntu
[03:53] <idefixx> ubuntujustin: where mycommand is whatever you want to do
[03:53] <defecacy> yeap.
[03:53] <Lacrymology> package list
[03:53] <Lacrymology> whatever
[03:53] <Lacrymology> repository?
[03:53] <weston> OK, thanks for the audio player suggestions... I'm sort of new to linux... Never going back to Windows.
[03:53] <weston> I'm learning fast though.
[03:53] <magnetron> Lacrymology: you need to enable the multiverse repository
[03:53] <defecacy> ben_underscore: it's supposed to be launching the first stable version soon
[03:54] <Lacrymology> magnetron, how do I do that?
[03:54] <ben_underscore> weston: rhythmbox is a good start
[03:54] <weston> I'll try it out.
[03:54] <defecacy> yup..rhythmbox is default as well
[03:54] <ben_underscore> defecacy: cool, it is very nice
[03:54] <ben_underscore> defecacy: and runs on mac, windows and linux!
[03:54] <magnetron> Lacrymology: system > administration
[03:54] <john> i copy a 4GB iso file,in edubuntu64  use  67.7 second, and in kubuntu64 use 96.6s
[03:55] <fluid> if i try forcing mpd to oss, it fails to play...
[03:55] <he1> hello.  can anybody please help me configure xorg to support 1280x1024
[03:55] <he1> I've tried everything but nothing works
[03:55] <john> in 64bit Ubuntu ,gnome is more better than kde
[03:55] <ubuntujustin> how do i quit out of sudo after?
[03:55] <defecacy> ben_underscore: Yeah!
[03:55] <Lightenix> exit?
[03:56] <betim> Hi, anyone knows a text editor for linux like Coda or Macromedia Dreamwaver, so you can connect to server where file is and edit it? I googled for id but I could not find any thing
[03:56] <defecacy> betim: i use vim
[03:56] <idefixx> ubuntujustin: you dont have to.. it just executes one command and thats it.. if you start a program with sudo just exit that program
[03:56] <mjr> betim, gedit can do that for gnome-vfs supported protocols
[03:56] <ubuntujustin> kk
[03:56] <daupgrader> or you can use gksudo
[03:56] <magnetron> betim: connect to the server first, then open with editor
[03:56] <daupgrader> if it makes you feel morre visual
[03:57] <daupgrader> *more
[03:57] <betim> magnetron, how, with nautilus?
[03:57] <Lacrymology> magnetron, I'm guessing its under "software sources" and I don't find it. Might It be because I have Edgy and not Feisty?
[03:57] <magnetron> Lacrymology: askt the channel, i gtg
[03:58] <Lacrymology> magnetron, ok, thank you
[03:58] <Lacrymology> people, how do I enable the multiverse repository?
[03:58] <ubuntujustin> trying now....
[03:58] <defecacy> you can go to synaptic to do it lacrymology
[03:58] <weston> I installed the "Touchpad" application from the Add/Remove application but it's giving me the following error: GSynaptics couldn't initialize. You have to set 'SHMConfig' 'true' in xorg.conf or XF86Config to use GSynaptics.  --How do I do that?
[03:58] <Lacrymology> defecacy, synaptic being?
[03:59] <kadakas> Whats a good audio player and libary manager (in that order) instead of Amarok? Amarok keeps crashing under Ubuntu 7.04 when listening to shoutcast streams.
[03:59] <magnetron> betim: yes, if it is a ssh or ftp file system
[03:59] <defecacy> lacrymology: it's the package manager
[03:59] <betim> yes it is :D
[03:59] <idefixx> Lacrymology: admin -> synaptic, or admin -> software sources. in the gnome menu
[04:00] <magnetron> betim: then use connect to server
[04:00] <betim> :)
[04:01] <betim> magnetron, I think it crashed, how do I run it from console?
[04:01] <magnetron> betim: i gtg
[04:02] <betim> gtg?
[04:02] <terlmann> I make a ntfs partition Inside of a ext3 one ; is there a way to do this and boot to it through grub ?
[04:02] <weston> Where is 'xorg.conf
[04:02] <magnetron> betim:  i am leaving now
[04:02] <terlmann> weston
[04:02] <terlmann> type slocate xorg.conf
[04:02] <weston> ok, thanks!
[04:03] <returnnull> heya. i have problems with feisty.. my desktop doesn't load up. i have to log in with the console and kill any bonobo-activation-server processes. when i do that, it loads, but the desktop switcher thing and the trash thing are nowhere to be found. this is a pain :(
[04:03] <rickympl> wy can't i get an identd response? oidentd is installed anr running, port 113 is forwarded and open in firestarter, what  is missing?
[04:04] <idefixx> returnnull: try 'telnet localhost 113' what happens?
[04:04] <idefixx> returnnull: oops not for you sry

[04:05] <BlitZ> Hey guys, I have an installation problem with 7.04, I tried to install ubuntu from the install menu in the live CD, and selected the guided partitioning to wipe the HDD and use the whole drive for ubuntu. It crashed after the paritioning and before the install, so now i have a blank harddrive, and I can no longer get the live CD to work. can anyone offer any advice for getting the live CD running again so i can try a fresh install?
[04:05] <BlitZ> (Im loading it up in safe graphics mode right now, and yes, im a windows user attempting to use linux =] )
[04:06] <returnnull> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libbonobo/+bug/90923 - seems to be a bug report for my problem, but i don't see any solution
[04:06] <riazahammed> Hello
[04:07] <MukiEX> Is it feasible to keep a set of 64 and 32 bit libraries so you can run both types of apps under a 64-bit smp kernel?
[04:07] <Catoptromancy> IS there anyway to hide my windows partitions?
[04:07] <skhobotu> why can't I access my root? I didn'tget a chance to set my password for this
[04:07] <bullgard4> Where is explained the format of this dmesg message: "ACPI: DSDT (v001 INTEL  ALVISO   0x06040000 MSFT 0x0100000e) @ 0x00000000"?
[04:07] <mwe_> hmm. the server says nick mwe is already in use. is there anthing to do but waiting?
[04:08] <kadakas> Whats a good audio player and libary manager (in that order) instead of Amarok? Amarok keeps crashing under Ubuntu 7.04 when listening to shoutcast streams.
[04:08] <idefixx> terlmann: you cant create one partition inside another one.. unless you create a file and loop-mount it.
[04:08] <weston> Why is Ubuntu not letting me make directories in the "/" (File System)? The option is grayed-out and cannot be clicked.
[04:08] <rickympl> idefixx  it connected
[04:08] <daupgrader> see ya guys
[04:08] <kadakas> weston: you have to be root to do that
[04:08] <daupgrader> nice to see you and thanks for your help
[04:08] <LjL> mwe: /msg nickserv ghost mwe your-freenode-password
[04:08] <daupgrader> bye bye
[04:09] <kadakas> weston: try: sudo mkdir /somedir
[04:09] <LjL> weston: the / directory is not writable by users, but only by the system administrator user. you don't want to write to /, anyway.
[04:09] <idefixx> rickympl: in that case it must have something to do with your router setup, do you have access to an outside linux box. to try the same thing - just to be sure?
[04:09] <skhobotu> I have just installed 5.10 Ubuntu and I have no password for root. how do i set it.
[04:09] <riazahammed> looks very busy here.. how do I get my D-Link Model DWL-122 Wireless USB Adapter work in Ubuntu Fiesta??? Can anyone help me?
[04:09] <LjL> skhobotu: why set one? use sudo.
[04:09] <weston> OK... I am logged in as admin I think... This is my computer and I've put in username and password...
[04:09] <LjL> !root > skhobotu    (skhobotu, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:09] <rickympl> idefixx :- nope, only windows
[04:09] <mwe> LjL: ah. thanks
[04:09] <mwe> LjL: that killed him
[04:10] <LjL> weston: you're not logged in as the root (administrative) user. and you should not be.
[04:10] <LjL> skhobotu: besides, 5.10 is not supported anymore, i recommend that you upgrade.
[04:10] <idefixx> rickympl: well you can try it from a windows machine too.. in any case im pretty sure it has to do with your router setup. you have to restart some router to enable forwarding changes - just a guess.
[04:10] <truz_`24> Anyone get asterisk to work with fiesty?
[04:11] <weston> I'm sorry for the "simple" questions. Like I said, I am new to linux. I hope I have not annoyed anyone. I think I'm good to go for now. You all have been very helpful. Thank you!
[04:11] <server3> Hi all
[04:11] <rickympl> idefixx :- what i dont get is that it was working fine a couple of days ago
[04:12] <LjL> weston: the thing is, basically, as your own user you should only write to /home/yourusername (i.e. your home directory). you should leave the rest of the filesystem in the hands of the APT package management system (which is what Ubuntu is based upon).
[04:12] <rickympl> idefixx :- ill check my router, restart a couple of times and c from there, thx
[04:12] <Toma-> weston: please feel free to ask silly questions. theyre the easiest to answer :D
[04:12] <server3> Where can I get apache-ssl-perl package for Ubuntu 6.06?
[04:12] <weston> LjL -- I understand now. I just thought I'd ask anyway :-)
[04:12] <LjL> weston: you *can* do whatever you want, as you are physically the administrator and your user can use "sudo" to execute privileged commands. however, there's no reason to mess with the / (or /usr, or any other) directories
[04:12] <server3> Help. Where can I get apache-ssl-perl package for Ubuntu 6.06?
[04:12] <kadakas> LjL: well, i have my hdd's mounted in / - this way my filepaths are shorter and cleaner
[04:13] <idefixx> rickympl: well there are a few things to know. mostly identd is started over inetd which honors the /etc/hosts.allow and hosts.deny file - if you made any changes there that might be it.
[04:13] <tondar> hello to all
[04:13] <john> ^_^
[04:13] <riazahammed> I am repeating this... how do I get my D-Link Model DWL-122 Wireless USB Adapter work in Ubuntu Fiesta??? Can anyone help me?
[04:13] <tondar> why isnt tor not working?
[04:13] <LjL> kadakas: and as non-standard as they can get... but alright, as long as one knows what one's doing very well. but if you have to ask why you can't write to /, then you don't.
[04:13] <john> ??
[04:13] <idefixx> rickympl: also you might have gotten a different ip by your dhcp (usually build in your router) so the forwarding donst work anymore. (ifconfig - to check)
[04:13] <kadakas> LjL: true
[04:14] <tondar> privoxy tor not working?
[04:14] <server3> Where can I get apache-ssl-perl package for Ubuntu 6.06?
[04:14] <LjL> !doesn't work | tondar
[04:14] <ubotu> tondar: Doesn't work is a strong statement. Does it sit on the couch all day? Does it want more money? Is it on IRC all the time? Please be specific! Examples of what doesn't work tend to help too.
[04:14] <returnnull> hm, well, i'm just going to remove the evolution packages, since my problem seems related to evolution, and i use thunderbird anyway.
[04:14] <tondar> LjL: ok
[04:15] <returnnull> if i mark the ubuntu-desktop package for deletion in synaptic, will everything go to hell? or will i survive until it's time to update
[04:15] <john> i found  64bit edubuntu is better than 64bit kubuntu!!!
[04:15] <LjL> returnnull: it will be fine, at least until you try using the "autoremove" function of apt-get
[04:15] <riazahammed> Can anyone help me?
[04:15] <idefixx> returnnull: no its just a meta package.. its needed for updating though
[04:15] <Trixsey> Is there any bleeding edge repositories for Ubuntu?
[04:15] <LjL> !backports > Trixsey    (Trixsey, see the private message from Ubotu)
[04:16] <returnnull> can i go ahead and remove it, remove evolution stuff, then install it again?
[04:16] <john> i copy a 4GB ios file, 64bit edubuntu use 67.7 second, and 64bit kubuntu use 96.6 second
[04:16] <tondar> LjL: it's just not working. it brings a page from my isp that says the following site "flicker.com" is censored
[04:16] <tondar> LjL: it's not actually doing anything
[04:16] <Rebecca> riazahammed: start by double checking what version of ubuntu you're running there
[04:16] <LjL> returnnull: no, if you install it again, evolution will get reinstalled too.
[04:16] <idefixx> returnnull: yes it will pull evolution with it if you reinstall it
[04:16] <mkulke> can i install ubuntustudio alongside ubuntu?
[04:16] <tondar> LjL: it's like not running at all, same as with out tor
[04:16] <returnnull> hm, okay. thanks guys, appreciate the help
[04:16] <tuskernini> fiesty sees a data dvd as a audio cd?
[04:16] <LjL> tondar: censored?
[04:16] <mwe> mkulke: isn't ubuntustudio just a set of ubuntu packages, basically?
[04:17] <LjL> tondar: how are you setting up your web browser to use it?=
[04:17] <mwe> mkulke: if so, yes
[04:17] <tondar> LjL: isp wont let me surf the site
[04:17] <idefixx> LjL: well he can do it just doesnt make sense though ;)
[04:17] <riazahammed> Rebecca I am running Ubuntu latest version Fiesta
[04:17] <tondar> LjL: filtered out
[04:17] <tondar> LjL: used the tor addon for FF
[04:17] <server3>  Where can I get apache-ssl-perl package for Ubuntu 6.06?
[04:17] <mwe> riazahammed: Feisty ;)
[04:17] <Trixsey> LjL, how about pre-released stuff? Is that even more bleeding edge (but unstable?)
[04:17] <LjL> tondar: addon? no, just set a proxy
[04:17] <tondar> LjL: privoxy and tor
[04:18] <tondar> LjL: I did that too
[04:18] <LjL> Trixsey: no official repositories for that
[04:18] <skhobotu> Downloading 7.04 as I tyep

[04:20] <tondar> LjL: but you need to test it out with a site that your isp has blocked
[04:20] <rakeer> how do I tell sirc what items to display in dialogue window?
[04:20] <tondar> LjL: you got any?
[04:20] <Catoptromancy> riazahammed, have you tried ndsiwrapper?
[04:20] <tuskernini> FEISTY bug, recognises data dvd as audio cd? am i alone on thes?
[04:20] <burnerx> !network
[04:20] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[04:21] <ubuntujustin> back
[04:21] <LjL> tondar: no, my ISP is sane. however, your tor is simply not working (i.e. you're not connecting through the tor network), because if it were, your ISP would have no means of knowing what site it is
[04:21] <riazahammed> Thanks you I will try that.. ndiswrapper mm not working
[04:21] <tondar> LjL: yeah its not working
[04:21] <svr_pi> hi
[04:21] <tondar> LjL: how would I go about solving it ?
[04:21] <Catoptromancy> ris you installed ndis-common and ndis util?
[04:22] <tondar> LjL: the icon at the bottom shows that it is enabled
[04:23] <tondar> LjL: it's just not working !!
[04:23] <rickympl> idefixx :- i think the problem started since i followed an howto to get virtualbox to get an ip from my router, it told me to setup a br0 and a tap0
[04:23] <_sami> where can i get "now playing" plugin for rhythmbox.. i remember that old winamp had that kind of plugin.
[04:23] <rakeer> hello?
[04:23] <LjL> tondar: did you change anything in /etc/tor or /etc/privoxy?
[04:23] <rakeer> does anyone use sirc?
[04:23] <ubuntujustin> just wanted 2 say thanks for helping me with my dual boot problem....whoever suggested removing the mapping and adding "makeactive" your a legend :)
[04:24] <tondar> LjL: changed some stuff in /etc/privoxy/config
[04:24] <idefixx> rickympl: do you still use those network devices?
[04:24] <rickympl> yes
[04:24] <tondar> LjL: actually changed and added a line at the very top
[04:24] <svr_pi> Can someone please help me figure out why my wireless does not work. I installed ubuntu yesterday on the work laptop. I am a newbie. I was able to install ndiswraper and install windows drivers for the wireless card. It worked well. Later on I installed updates and for unknown reason my wireless connection does not work. I tried restarting wireless connection - did not help. I googled and searched ubuntu website but could not fi
[04:25] <idefixx> rickympl: so you linuxbox has more than one ip assigned to it?
[04:25] <LjL> tondar: might you not have inadvertedly told it to connect directly? what have you changed?
[04:25] <rakeer> lusers
[04:25] <tondar> LjL:  added this at top: forward-socks4a / localhost:9050
[04:25] <K1GPL> is there a repo with dev kernels?  like .21, for example?
[04:26] <flyingyellowpig> hi there
[04:26] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: We could get all technical diagnosing the issue, but have you tried to re-install ndiswrapper and driver?
[04:26] <svr_pi> yes
[04:26] <skhobotu> I have used sudo -i and it works but how do I load an RPM package?
[04:26] <svr_pi> i reinstalled by driver
[04:26] <flyingyellowpig> i would to ask you guys if any of you has tried Ubuntu Studio?
[04:26] <tondar> and commented out the line that says: logfile logfile and changed it to #logfile logfile
[04:26] <svr_pi> and then reinstalled ndiswrapper common and util
[04:26] <svr_pi> then i reinstall driver
[04:26] <TVonmylaptop> i am a complete newbie and installed ubuntu 7.04 on my laptop.

On the other hand, analog tv image is extremely blurred and unwatchable with xawtv and without sound
[04:26] <svr_pi> *reinstalled
[04:27] <tondar> LjL:  and commented out the line that says: logfile logfile and changed it to #logfile logfile
[04:27] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: From what you've said i seems likely something in one of the updates broke something, but it could get complicated trying to work out what.
[04:27] <rickympl> idefixx :- i dont think so. lets c. br0=192.168.2.100 tap0=192.168.2.5 eth0 has noip, but my router gives my pc .100 and the virtual machine .102
[04:27] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: Is the network card still recognised by Network Manager?
[04:27] <tondar> LjL: must I do anything else or those are fine? or are they?
[04:27] <svr_pi> Yes
[04:28] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: ok, the wireless network itself, is it encrypted using WPA or WEP?
[04:28] <svr_pi> and the light on the card is blinking as if it is receiving something
[04:28] <Lacrymology> is there a startup list somewhere in gnome?
[04:28] <svr_pi> WEP
[04:28] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: WEP
[04:28] <idefixx> rickympl: are you using a windows vb host?
[04:28] <LjL> tondar: i'm not entirely sure from the documentation what that forward-socks4 would do. shouldn't it have a period at the end, for starters? also, what is it supposed to do? i think the default config already make privoxy route through tor
[04:28] <_Johny> I'd like to know a thing - When there's a process stopped by the "kill" command, does it use the same resources and devices as before it was stopped?
[04:28] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: ok... so does Network Manager show the SSID of the network in its list with a signal bar?
[04:29] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: Do you know what pastebin is?
[04:29] <farion> howto do i recompile my ubuntu standardkernel - i only want to change two items?
[04:29] <tondar> LjL: there was a period there I thought it was a typo
[04:29] <tondar> lol
[04:29] <tondar> LjL: I'll add it again
[04:29] <LjL> tondar: no, it's not. but again, are you sure you need that line at all?
[04:29] <tondar> LjL: but no use
[04:29] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: not yet
[04:30] <tondar> LjL: the first line at top
[04:30] <tondar> ?
[04:30] <IntuitiveNipple> !pastebin svr_pi
[04:30] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pastebin svr_pi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:30] <gil> can someone please give me a hand setting resolution in Xorg?
[04:30] <LjL> tondar: also, after making any changes, make sure you do "sudo invoke-rc.d privoxy restart" to make it see the changes
[04:30] <gordonjcp> _Johny: do you mean stopped as in not currently running, or actually killed?
[04:30] <IntuitiveNipple> !pastebin
[04:30] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:30] <tondar> LjL: and does it need the (.)

[04:30] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: I just noticed something
[04:30] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: go on...?
[04:30] <tondar> ljl
[04:30] <tondar> ok
[04:30] <LjL> tondar: yes it does from what i can see, but i'm not sure it is needed.
[04:30] <rickympl> idefixx :- im using a windows server 2003 with virtualbox
[04:30] <tondar> LjL: oh well I will try
[04:30] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: in the network tools i got an additional wireless "adaptor"
[04:31] <thadeus> yop
[04:31] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: Hmmm... is it possible the update has changed the driver?
[04:31] <shuan> anyone in here use ubuntu standalone without windows
[04:31] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: maybe you can just alter things to use the new one?
[04:31] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: i have in the Network Devices: lo, wlan0, and now i also have wlan0:avahi

[04:31] <alsa> what are the best/known linux distros for WARDRIVING
[04:32] <Toma-> alsa: whatever runs kismet
[04:32] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: ahhh... avahi is a serice discovery service for network multimedia and so on
[04:32] <tondar> LjL: here is what I get after making the changes and restarting the service
[04:32] <alsa> Toma-, nice one

[04:32] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple:  I did not have it before
[04:32] <Toma-> alsa: i think there was a live knoppix based distro that was centred around security auditing
[04:32] <farion> Sorbus111: sure
[04:33] <tondar> LjL: I will remove the 1st line and see what happens

[04:34] <rickympl> idefixx :- yes windows vb
[04:34] <flyingyellowpig> could anyone give me some help?
[04:34] <idefixx> rickympl: well if all the other network stuff on ubuntu works im not really sure what else it could be.. i never really used anything windows host based.
[04:35] <rickympl> idefixx :- could it have to with the ip on br0 and tap0 being dif?
[04:35] <idefixx> rickympl: are you sure its not the windows host system that blocks the incoming connections in the first place?
[04:35] <Sorbus111> farion: my laptop screen goes blank when it comes out of sleep
[04:35] <ltk> hi, i'm using feisty. when i resume from hibernate, my disk is set to udma2 instead of udma5 (after fresh boot) which would be correct. what can I do? (HP nx7010) 82801DBM (ICH4-M) IDE Controller

[04:37] <_sami> skype, gaim etc
[04:38] <acer90> hello
[04:38] <svr_pi>  IntuitiveNipple:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21137/
[04:38] <farion> sorbus:  1.suspend2ram - your notebook needs still energy to hold the data in the ram. 2.suspend2disk - the current state is stored on the hd and the notebook doesn't need energy
[04:38] <IntuitiveNipple> Thanks
[04:38] <_sami> Toma-, skype, gaim etc
[04:38] <Sorbus111> farion: s2r then, the s2d is called 'hibernate' on my system; that works fine, it's just the sleep (to ram) that doesn't restart
[04:39] <tondar> please help me out
[04:39] <tondar> tor privoxy
[04:39] <farion> sorbus111: okay, how did you start s2r?
[04:39] <Toma-> _sami: dont hold your breath for skype. but there might be one for gaim. hold tight a sec
[04:40] <Sorbus111> farion: from the power down button on the top panel, then selecting sleep. also, it doesn't work if I set it to sleep when I close the lid.

[04:41] <Heroin> NVU
[04:41] <afief> tondar, couldn't find it in the repository:S
[04:41] <tondar> not in there
[04:41] <tondar> afief:
[04:41] <idefixx> rickympl: well im a bit confused here you said your virtual system is supposed to get the ip .102 but you say it has got .100 - what is the ip your windows system has?
[04:41] <farion> sorbus111: does something indicates the suspendstate - a flashing led or something else
[04:41] <Sorbus111> farion: thanks, I'll go and try that now to see if that's it

[04:42] <farion> sorbus111: and do you know about http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram?
[04:42] <Sorbus111> farion: yeah, the power leds flash when sleeping. when I try to wake it it seems to start up, just the screen it blank. I'm not sure if it's just the screen or the system too.
[04:42] <digital_k> http://www.scribus.net/
[04:42] <tondar> afief: you need to enable Prerequisites: add universe and multiverse repositories.
[04:43] <Sorbus111> farion: I didn't know about that... I've just switched to linux and I'm finding it hard to find things...
[04:43] <tondar> afief: goto http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-install-nvu-the-web-authoring-system for more help
[04:43] <IntuitiveNipple> Sorbus111: That sounds like a common issue. I have that on some Vaio's, not resolved it yet
[04:43] <farion> sorbus111: you can switch the num or the caps-lock to see if your system is up
[04:43] <digital_k> afief: the link is just for screenshots, etc. Scribus is available in the repos.

[04:46] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: What does "ndiswrapper -l" report?
[04:46] <farion> sorbus111: so your system should be up again - did you try to suspend without a running X from the console?
[04:46] <Gerro> listing of drivers uploaded I think
[04:46] <effie_jayx> Hey has anyone installed ubuntu on a "compaq presario f5000" laptop
[04:47] <Gerro> compaq presario v6000 here
[04:47] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: that the device is installed
[04:47] <Sorbus111> farion: without a running X?
[04:47] <Gerro> effie_jayx: what's the problem?
[04:47] <digital_k> effie_jayx:what is your issue?
[04:47] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: hold on i will give you more info
[04:47] <effie_jayx> well
[04:47] <tondar> scribus is for  press ? not web
[04:47] <effie_jayx> when I am going to install using the live cd
[04:48] <farion> sorbus111: yes, without the graphical userinterface - often such failures are problems with a graphiccard-driver
[04:48] <effie_jayx> it freezes with a blank page
[04:48] <Gerro> effie_jayx: put it into vga mode
[04:48] <Willbert> effie: use the alternative cd
[04:48] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: netani: driver installed device (17CB:0001) present
[04:48] <effie_jayx> Gerro, it is in vga mode
[04:48] <farion> sorbus111: by the way: ati, nvidia or intel graphiccard?
[04:48] <effie_jayx> but I have to change resolution to make it work
[04:48] <Gerro> effie_jayx: you tried the f key option for vga?
[04:48] <effie_jayx> farion,  it is a nvidia
[04:48] <Sorbus111> farion: I did get a warning that my graphics card had unsupported drivers, but that it should work normally anyway... nvidia
[04:49] <ivo> hello, (running feisty xubuntu) I'm trying to configure the wireless network at university but the wpa_gui "COULD NOT GET STATUS FROM WPA_SUPPLICANT"... I didn't get any further on the web, can anybody help me?
[04:49] <digital_k> tondar:you are correct. I dont know why, but that was on the top of my head..
[04:49] <digital_k> lol
[04:49] <mibebe120202> hola
[04:49] <effie_jayx> Gerro,  the vga mode breaks
[04:49] <Gerro> effie_jayx: hmm well mine is similar model only trouble I had was had to switch off wireless during live cd boot and use vga then after installed it I installed nvidia and blacklisted the broadcom driver
[04:49] <Berny_> heya, just wondering if anyone here has any experience with openldap and gid and uids?
[04:49] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: Things are looking goodish so far :) ... can you pastebin the results of "dmesg | grep ndiswrapper"
[04:49] <effie_jayx> gerro it won't boot...
[04:50] <tondar> digital_k: np ;)
[04:50] <farion> sorbus111: did you install the nvidia-glx driver?
[04:50] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: ok
[04:50] <Gerro> effie_jayx: which vga mode resolution are you using?
[04:50] <ltk> hi, i'm using feisty. when i resume from hibernate, my disk is set to udma2 instead of udma5  which would be correct. I checked with hdparm. what can I do? (HP nx7010) 82801DBM (ICH4-M) IDE Controller
[04:50] <Sorbus111> farion: I don't have internet access on my laptop yet
[04:50] <Gerro> effie_jayx: does the cd check go alright?
[04:50] <digital_k> scribus looks and acts very much like a an app I have used in windows, maybe thats where the confusion came from
[04:50] <digital_k> "p
[04:50] <Gerro> Sorbus111: with wireless, ethernet, or modem?
[04:50] <effie_jayx> Gerro,  1024X768 X32
[04:50] <Berny_> I am trying to find where I can set the initial group number and uid number etc, and how it goes about creating groups etc

[04:51] <phoenixbyrd> help :(
[04:51] <Gerro> effie_jayx: hmm try 800x600 if that is option it usually works
[04:51] <digital_k> I still cannot use hibernate or suspend with feisty
[04:51] <digital_k> its annoying
[04:51] <farion> you can switch to console with Strg-Alt-F1 (and back with Alt-F7) - there you can stop gdm sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop (later you can start it with start)
[04:51] <Sorbus111> Gerro: I've got a usb modem/router, currently only in use on this computer (winxp)
[04:51] <Gerro> effie_jayx: if you install from alternate cd though you could boot up and press esc to enter recovery console and install nvidia
[04:51] <effie_jayx> Gerro, I managed to install using safe graphics mode... but I couldn't get the installed system to start
[04:51] <hylje> i'm using the xorg "ati" driver. suspend-to-ram fails to bring the machine up
[04:52] <digital_k> black screen right? and it does nothing?
[04:52] <digital_k> i get that too.
[04:52] <Sorbus111> yeah
[04:52] <Molluck> can somebody help me access the wireless network in ubuntu from my laptop?
[04:52] <Gerro> effie_jayx: yeah it doesn't have safe graphics option so install through grub recovery console
[04:52] <digital_k> the keyboard lights come on, thats it
[04:52] <farion> Sorbus111: if the suspend works - i think it is a problem with your graphicsdriver
[04:52] <dmaz> can I ask a question?
[04:52] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21140/
[04:52] <digital_k> dmaz:sure
[04:52] <IntuitiveNipple> Ta
[04:52] <Sorbus111> I'll try updating the graphics driver then
[04:53] <Gerro> effie_jayx: which processor does it use?
[04:53] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: YAY! There's your problem... the adapter is fine, but the WEP key is failing
[04:53] <farion> sorbus111: i dont think thats the solution
[04:53] <effie_jayx> Gerro,  you suggest an alternate install? and whne do I isntall what how...
[04:53] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: but why
[04:53] <effie_jayx> Gerro,  Amd Sempro 3400*
[04:53] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: I know it is correct
[04:53] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: I reentered it 4 times
[04:53] <farion> sorbus111: but at first try with the hotkeys, or switch to console and back - like i described
[04:53] <Molluck> I'm having trouble accessing the wireless network in Ubuntu 7.04.  Can somebody help me access the wireless network on my laptop?
[04:53] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: I even did copy past from the router
[04:53] <Sorbus111> okay
[04:54] <Gerro> effie_jayx: start it up and press esc when you see it mention grub. choose use recovery console as root.
[04:54] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: ahhh yes, I'm not saying the key is incorrect, just that it is failing... I'm digging for info on this now
[04:54] <farion> sorbus111: and if that did not work try http://en.opensuse.org/S2ram
[04:54] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: Thank you very much
[04:55] <flyingyellowpig> which one is better Ubuntu or Ubuntu Studio?
[04:56] <digital_k> flyingyellowpig:depends on what you want to do I would say.
[04:56] <digital_k> I am wanting to try U. Studio
[04:56] <Pici> flyingyellowpig: If you're definitly going to be doing alot of heavy audio work, I'd suggest Studio, otherwise regular Ubuntu
[04:56] <effie_jayx> Gerro,  ok.. so I press etc and it says I am leaving the graphical boot menu and starting the text mode interface
[04:57] <Gerro> yeah

[05:00] <flyingyellowpig> have you people tried ubuntustudio then?
[05:00] <elyase>  Hi, is there any easy way of creating a quick GUI
[05:00] <elyase>  any tool or recomendation?
[05:00] <bullgard4> private_meta: start Oo in a Gnome terminal and report what error messages you obtain.

[05:02] <ubuntu_> Hi all I am logged in to a ubuntu install cd on a computer with xp and vista installed (work thing) useing the vista bootloader is out of the question unfortunatley because of an unusual hardware configuration. I was hoping someone could give me a hand installing grub. Will I need a seperate partition, like a /boot or something or will grub be able to be installed to the mbr?
[05:02] <MrPantoufle> > digital_k libc6 is allready installed
[05:02] <farion> flyingyellowpig: ubuntustudio only comes with ardour2 and some artwork - the rest is included into ubuntu
[05:02] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21143/
[05:02] <flyingyellowpig> I've had some troubles to put this old laptop to work properly
[05:02] <flyingyellowpig> ok
[05:03] <burnerx> having my iptables restore setting set in /etc/network/interface screws up the NetworkManager
[05:03] <tuskernini> feisty and edgy sees a data dvd written in windows as an audio cd? why?
[05:03] <flyingyellowpig> so no much change on my OS hen?
[05:03] <elyase>  Hi, is there any easy way of creating a quick GUI
[05:03] <elyase>  any tool or recomendation?
[05:03] <flyingyellowpig> then
[05:03] <burnerx> having my iptables restore setting set in /etc/network/interface screws up the NetworkManager
[05:03] <burnerx> !NetworkManager
[05:03] <ubotu> networkmanager is an application to make (wireless) networking Just Work. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/NetworkManager
[05:03] <burnerx> !networkmanager
[05:03] <DShepherd> elyase: glade maybe?
[05:03] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: oops, didn't spot that... thanks
[05:03] <Pici> elyase: gambas perhaps
[05:03] <elyase> have you tried Glade
[05:03] <elyase> ?
[05:03] <DShepherd> elyase: si
[05:04] <MrPantoufle> > digital_k > I have this error when I try to install the .dem of refit, yes it s for debian but on the howto I read it was ok
[05:04] <farion> digital_k: in studio it is the feisty-lowlatency-kernel, i think
[05:04] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: I also tried to use Web key (askii)
[05:04] <elyase> The thing is
[05:04] <bullgard4> private_meta: Rough! I have no good ideas. May be you should try fsck command.
[05:04] <elyase> that when I create a window
[05:04] <elyase> i can only put an elemnt on it
[05:04] <burnerx> !iptables
[05:04] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:04] <MrPantoufle> > farion arg maxos X is allready erased x(
[05:05] <MrPantoufle> > farion What I sould do ?
[05:05] <digital_k> MrPantoufle: where did you get refit from? you downloaded from the internet I presume?
[05:05] <digital_k> it is available in the repos
[05:05] <farion> MrPantoufle: look at your dependencies, there is something wrong i think
[05:05] <digital_k> i would go with that version
[05:05] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: I *think* this has something to do with it somehow loosing the SSID of the wireless LAN
[05:06] <Patizivs> Hi, does anyone have working SquidGuard on feisty?
[05:06] <MrPantoufle> > digital_k http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/r/refit/
[05:06] <elyase> any one has used glade?
[05:06] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: any suggestions?
[05:06] <private_meta> bullgard4: erm... fsck tells me running it on mounted file systems may cause severe damage, but how do i unmount the system partition to scan it? somehow i don't see that working
[05:06] <digital_k> MrPantoufle: remove it, then open synaptic and do a search for refit, then install it again.
[05:06] <digital_k> that should fix any dependency issues
[05:07] <LjL> private_meta: do it from a live cd, or use recovery mode and leave it mounted read-only
[05:07] <LjL> !fsck > private_meta    (private_meta, see the private message from Ubotu)
[05:07] <DShepherd> elyase: google for glade tutorials..
[05:07] <Molluck> I'm trying to do a tutorial for wpa_supplicant.  It says, edit the wpa_supplicant.conf to include my network.  It says the info needed can be generated with wpa_passphrase.  I am stumped as to how to do this. can somebody please help?
[05:07] <MrPantoufle> > fanion I'm sorry I never use linux before
[05:07] <private_meta> LjL: i can't
[05:07] <LjL> private_meta: why?
[05:07] <elyase> thanks DSheperd
[05:07] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: try this: "sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid XXXX" where XXXX is the SSID of your network
[05:07] <private_meta> LjL: my computer doesn't take boot CDs
[05:07] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: ok
[05:07] <LjL> private_meta: then use recovery mode
[05:07] <private_meta> LjL: don't ask me why, i can't use boot cds at all
[05:08] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: done
[05:08] <private_meta> LjL: so just the shutdown command with the file system check option?
[05:08] <digital_k> private_media: your bios may not be set correctly to boot from cd
[05:08] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: it did not say anything
[05:08] <private_meta> digital_k: no, i looked into that, it's not the reason
[05:08] <unimatrix9> private_meta ; open terminal and type sudo touch /forcefsck
[05:08] <unimatrix9> then reboot
[05:08] <unimatrix9> :)
[05:09] <LjL> private_meta: sort of, i think if you just do that, and fsck is convinced that the filesystem is clean, it won't even start actually checking it. best is recovery mode and manual fsck, if you need some interactive filesystem restoration
[05:09] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: ok... are you using the same PC to chat on here?
[05:09] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple:no
[05:09] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: i use different laptop
[05:09] <LjL> private_meta: in recovery mode, use "mount / -o remount=ro" to mount your root partition read-only so that fsck can work
[05:09] <Molluck> I am having problems connecting to my wireless network in Ubuntu.  can somebody help?
[05:09] <flyingyellowpig> yep
[05:09] <flyingyellowpig> what the problems is?
[05:10] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: cool! try restarting the networking on it: "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[05:10] <private_meta> LjL: btw, to complete it, my beryl-manager ain't working properly either, but i guess that might be connected
[05:10] <unimatrix9> private_meta ; open terminal and type sudo touch /forcefsck ( will do an check at bootup )
[05:10] <Molluck> flyingyellowpig, well, I have typed password for my wireless network and have attempted to connect, but the webpages still do not load.  I have tried this once before without WPA2 enabled in the router (or any encryption for that matter) and it worked fine.
[05:10] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: I did it
[05:10] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: hold on
[05:11] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: it worked this time
[05:11] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: ;-)
[05:11] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: It's on the net?
[05:11] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: yes
[05:11] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: cool! that means the update somehow removed the SSID info
[05:11] <flyingyellowpig> have you tried the ubuntu wireless help section?
[05:11] <IntuitiveNipple> remember that in case it happens again
[05:12] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: thank you very much
[05:12] <phoenix> lu
[05:12] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: i am new at this
[05:12] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: So am I :)
[05:12] <Molluck> flyingyellowpig, I don't know.
[05:12] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: my first linux machine - so much to learn...
[05:12] <KiloHertz> Anyone here use OPENBOX?
[05:12] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: ahhh it comes easily :)
[05:12] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: the problem is that sometimes i do not know what i should search for
[05:13] <bullgard4> private_meta: I thought your Open Office is not on a system partition. If it is, then Ubuntu will check your system's file system every 20 boots or so. Sorry that I do not know just now how one could force Ubuntu to fsck at next boot time.
[05:13] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: thanks i really appreciate your help
[05:13] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: I know exactly what you mean - sometimes you need to know the terms before you can find an answer
[05:13] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: You're welcome :)
[05:13] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: exactly
[05:13] <flyingyellowpig> just a min i will try to help ypu Molluck
[05:13] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: It's more intuitive for me :p
[05:13] <Molluck> flyingyellowpig, Okay :)
[05:13] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: i kind of like it
[05:13] <private_meta> bullgard4: i guess unimatrix9 had quite a good idea there, i hope it works
[05:14] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: My catch-phrase is "suck it and see" :p
[05:14] <flyingyellowpig> http://www.debianadmin.com/enable-wpa-wireless-access-point-in-ubuntu-linux.html
[05:14] <bullgard4> private_meta: good luck!
[05:14] <flyingyellowpig> try this link
[05:14] <flyingyellowpig> Molluck
[05:14] <Molluck> flyingyellowpig, okay
[05:14] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: one of the workers infected this laptop with virus so i decided to put ubuntu on it
[05:14] <private_meta> bullgard4: well, good thing i have another computer so i won't be offline for the time being
[05:14] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: i will have some fun plus idiots will have harder time infecting it ;-)
[05:14] <vasser> hello
[05:15] <vasser> what is the most recommended file system for ubuntu ?
[05:15] <tough> Hi All - Anyone know of a way to have a desktop shortcut to a folder in my /home directory - using kubuntu - kde desktop?
[05:15] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: I moved all my systems to Ubuntu last year. GNU/Linux is finally  at a point where it's usable for workstations as well as servers
[05:15] <DShepherd> i just made a video with xvidcap but the framerate is really low (3.something). How can i get the framerate up? is there a channel for screencasting?
[05:15] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: cool
[05:16] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: I've just bought a new Sony Vaio notebook and I already know all it's hardware is supported.
[05:16] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: one good thing is that there are tons of FREE documentation that can be used to fix the problem
[05:16] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: Yes, and if the worst comes to the worst (as it has for me on a few things) you can actually hack the source code and rebuild it
[05:16] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: plus there are good people willing to help
[05:16] <private_meta> unimatrix9: yours didn't show me any error, maybe i'll try LjL's version
[05:16] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: at the current time it is over my head ---  i am starting small
[05:17] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: like building the house ;-)
[05:17] <Molluck> flyingyellowpig, where it says "comment out", is it a / or 2 //?
[05:17] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: I think thats the good part... the sense of communtiy
[05:17] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: i agree
[05:17] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: Eco-friendly I hope :p
[05:17] <flyingyellowpig> try this one too http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=136
[05:17] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: customer walked in gotta go ... chat later?
[05:17] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: I have to skip off for a while, I need fooood!
[05:17] <kml> hi
[05:17] <IntuitiveNipple> svr_pi: sure... have a good day
[05:17] <svr_pi> IntuitiveNipple: you too
[05:18] <dqf> dd
[05:18] <kml> i want to know which is the best software that i need for writing in LaTeX
[05:19] <Molluck> flyingyellowpig, I'm not very good at the terminal just yet :(
[05:19] <osfameron> kml: if you use vim there's latex-suite for that
[05:19] <Molluck> flyingyellowpig, I need help where it is not self explanatory
[05:19] <tough> Hi - Anyone know if there is a IRC channel specifically for Kunbuntu KDE?
[05:19] <osfameron> kml: otherwise you could try lyx, which is like a wysiwyg editor for latex
[05:19] <larsso_> hi
[05:19] <private_meta> LjL: this option gives me a "already mounted or busy"
[05:19] <alsa> any one know how to set my wireless lan network card into MONITOR mode
[05:19] <gordonjcp> osfameron: and you want to be rather careful when googling for that
[05:20] <osfameron> gordonjcp: really? ;-)
[05:20] <alsa> i use "  iwconfig eth1 mode monitor " but it changes mode back to managed every 3 minutes
[05:20] <osfameron> gordonjcp: oh, for latex... yeah
[05:20] <gordonjcp> osfameron: you're not feeling *that* lucky
[05:20] <gordonjcp> osfameron: losing the "e" off the end to a mispaste is particularly bad
[05:20] <kml> osfameron, oh thanks, and do you think it good for a newbie ?
[05:20] <osfameron> gordonjcp: ah, see what you mean
[05:20] <sean_bateman> alsa: you've got to stop the NetworkManager stuff
[05:20] <larsso_> I have a cuestion???
[05:21] <alsa> how to do that
[05:21] <Kalisto> im trying to change my keyboard layout to dvorak. under System -> Preferences -> Keyboard there is only US. i also cannot add any,
[05:21] <osfameron> kml: I think lyx might be a good choice - I'm not an expert in tex/latex though
[05:21] <sean_bateman> alsa: /etc/init.d/NetworkManager stop or something like that
[05:21] <Kalisto> osfameron, for LaTeX editors kile or texmaker is good
[05:21] <larsso_> what execute a program the network with "dosbox"????
[05:21] <starshine> got a freshly installed dapper; installed base only, mass upgrading it to edgy before feisty
[05:21] <sean_bateman> larsso_: ?!
[05:22] <private_meta> LjL: are you still there?
[05:22] <kml> osfameron, ok :)
[05:22] <alsa> sean_bateman,  u sure ?
[05:22] <Kalisto> kml, kile or texmaker ;)
[05:22] <starshine> during the edgy stuff every now and then perl stops and spouts some bit about "please check your locale settings" - why couldn't it sort this out about perl very early??
[05:22] <larsso_> what execute a program the network with "dosbox"????
[05:22] <sean_bateman> alsa: that might disconnect you, though. If it does, use dhclient to get the network up again
[05:23] <epw> why is /var/log/messages getting a message like this every 20 minutes: May 16 11:05:20 <hostname> -- MARK --
[05:23] <Molluck> it says "Create a file called /etc/default/wpasupplicant, add entry ENABLED=0 and save the file" how do I do this?
[05:23] <sean_bateman> alsa: yep, almost sure
[05:23] <larsso_> do you know a spanish room chat for linux???
[05:24] <maarten_> !es | larsso_
[05:24] <ubotu> larsso_: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[05:24] <kml> Kalisto, i don't know how to configure texmaker , and i think i must install miktex before, which i don't find with apt-get :S
[05:24] <larsso_> ok tks!! :D
[05:24] <Kalisto> kml, kile is very easy to configure.
[05:25] <kml> Kalisto, cool i'll try it
[05:25] <Kalisto> kml, http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/TeXLive_and_Texmaker
[05:26] <Kalisto> there is also one for kile
[05:26] <Trixsey> Is there a non-gcj Azureus in any repo?
[05:26] <burnerx> !ltsp
[05:26] <ubotu> LTSP is the Linux Terminal Server Project, which adds thin-client support to Linux servers. See chapter 3 of the !edubuntuhandbook, http://www.ltsp.org and/or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Terminal_Server_Project
[05:26] <kml> Kalisto, thanks

[05:26] <RainCT> Hi
[05:27] <Kalisto> kml, also come to #latex on freenode. good help there
[05:27] <RainCT> My keyboard isn't working anymore on Feisty, but on Edgy it worked correct, do you know what that can be? (on an other PC; I tried with two keyboard, but both are the same model)
[05:27] <unimatrix9> who is running ubuntu on the intel macbook or intel macmini?
[05:27] <kml> Kalisto, yes of sure ;)
[05:28] <sean_bateman> RainCT> dpkg --reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:28] <RainCT> sean_bateman: nice, I can't type...
[05:28] <sean_bateman> unimatrix9> i've set up one, it works well
[05:28] <sean_bateman> RainCT>how the hell are you talking on irc? :D use ssh :)
[05:28] <RivaeAerya> When will Pidgin be released in Ubuntu, guys?
[05:28] <RainCT> sean_bateman: on another PC
[05:28] <unimatrix9> wich one do you use?
[05:28] <unimatrix9> macbook or macmini?
[05:29] <sean_bateman> unimatrix9>mini
[05:29] <RainCT> sean_bateman: how do I connect by ssh over the network?
[05:29] <kayef> how do i create a button that will minimize all window?
[05:29] <sean_bateman> does the ssh daemon run on your keyboardless machine?
[05:29] <unimatrix9> thats an intel version i think? What pitfalls can i expect?
[05:30] <RainCT> sean_bateman: I've no idea, it's a standard Feisty installation
[05:30] <sean_bateman> RainCT> if it does, then open a terminal and type ssh username@IP, with username a user name on the machine you want to open a session to, and IP the IP adress of the machine
[05:30] <sean_bateman> unimatrix9> bluetooth seems to work, i haven't tested wifi
[05:30] <RainCT> sean_bateman: ok, how do I get the IP? :)
[05:30] <unimatrix9> wifi is essential....hmm
[05:31] <hylje> thinkpad r50p, 2.6.20-15, "ati" xorg driver; suspend-to-ram fails to bring display(?) up
[05:31] <hylje> worked with feisty development
[05:31] <hylje> but broke after upgrading to final
[05:32] <IntuitiveNipple> hylie: You're the 3rd person today talking about that
[05:32] <hylje> really?
[05:32] <starshine> hrm
[05:33] <starshine> upgrade dapper to edgy also has complaints about udev not being around
[05:33] <RainCT> sean_bateman: how can I get it's IP, please?
[05:33] <private_meta> bullgard4: well, let's say the fsck (unimatrix9s version) didn't find any mistakes... any other idea while my open office / beryl ain't working?
[05:33] <starshine> it did volumeid and initramfs-tools before udev err I think this isn't gonna be happy :/
[05:34] <patheticalpanic> Uhm, not to be a bother, but after reading manuals, and checking forums, I needed some help with a small problem
[05:34] <patheticalpanic> can I borrow a cycle or two from someone?
[05:34] <IntuitiveNipple> bicycle?
[05:35] <patheticalpanic> I more meant an undefined amount of time or effort,
[05:35] <unimatrix9> hurry up and ask....
[05:35] <patheticalpanic> unicycles are always fun though,
[05:35] <IntuitiveNipple> !ask
[05:35] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:35] <patheticalpanic> yeah I cannotchown as root
[05:35] <Otacon22> !fstab
[05:35] <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
[05:35] <patheticalpanic> yeah I did that,
[05:35] <unimatrix9> sudo chown ?
[05:35] <patheticalpanic> it is set umask 000
[05:36] <patheticalpanic> but it won't let me access/chown as root even
[05:36] <private_meta> can anyone give me a hint why my open office doesn't start (just splash screen) and why beryl doesn't work?
[05:36] <patheticalpanic> says I don't have the necessary permissions
[05:36] <alsa> hey , how do u kill the network monitor again ?
[05:36] <IntuitiveNipple> patheticalpanic: what version of Ubuntu?
[05:36] <DShepherd> i just made a video with xvidcap but the framerate is really low (3.something). How can i get the framerate up? is there a channel for screencasting?
[05:36] <patheticalpanic> which doesn't make a lick of sense to me
[05:36] <patheticalpanic> Edgy I believe
[05:37] <alsa> hey , how do u kill the network monitor again ? so that the wireless lan card stays in monitor mode ?
[05:37] <patheticalpanic> the last edgy, don't have the number off hand
[05:37] <nostferka> when i run gain it connects then starts load contacts
[05:37] <IntuitiveNipple> patheticalpanic: Does chown fail for all files/directories or just particular ones?
[05:37] <hylje> IntuitiveNipple: in that case is there anything to be done?
[05:37] <nostferka> and shuts itself down
[05:37] <patheticalpanic> anything on the fat partitions,
[05:38] <IntuitiveNipple> hylje: I give up when it comes to 3D-accelerated video drivers, its just one big mess
[05:38] <DorivalJunior> hello
[05:39] <Aterdeus> help me about turkix linux
[05:39] <Jake80> one thing i liekd about windoze was the flashing network icon to let you know when your computer was accessing the network.  Can you make the network icon in ubuntu flash?
[05:39] <IntuitiveNipple> patheticalpanic: ahhhh... as far as I know, FAT doesn't have a way to store owner info
[05:39] <kayef> what is the command that will minimize all window?
[05:39] <ernst_> hello
[05:40] <ernst_> is there someone with knowledge about /tmp ?
[05:40] <IntuitiveNipple> patheticalpanic: for FAt/VFAT permissions are set by the mount options
[05:40] <epw> why is /var/log/messages getting a message like this every 20 minutes?: May 16 11:05:20 <hostname> -- MARK --
[05:40] <patheticalpanic> okay, it is defaults umask=000
[05:40] <RainCT> !ask
[05:40] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:40] <IntuitiveNipple> epw: It's telling you its working
[05:40] <RainCT> @ ernst_ :p
[05:40] <ernst_> ok :)
[05:40] <bullgard4> private_meta: You could try to delimit the problem by calling some other applications in the vicinity so to be sure that the error occurs only when calling OO.o or Beryl. I suppose that your OO.o did function all right before. Your actions between these two functional states may give a clue. Did you do a RAM test?
[05:41] <patheticalpanic> it is pretty much l would like to move files around in my other user accounts,
[05:41] <epw> IntuitiveNipple: does it need to do that?
[05:41] <Jake80> one thing i liked about windoze was the flashing network icon to let you know when your computer was accessing the network.  Can you make the network icon in ubuntu flash?
[05:41] <IntuitiveNipple> patheticalpanic: You can alter the mount options for the partition in /etc/fstab or using mount manually
[05:41] <private_meta> bullgard4: how do i do a ram-test?
[05:41] <reuven> Where is there help getting ATI Radeon Drivers to work?
[05:41] <patheticalpanic> ah okay, I will play around with it,
[05:41] <dfarje> hello everyone
[05:41] <IntuitiveNipple> epw: Yes, it's syslog's way of ensuring you can tell its not stopped although nothing is being reported
[05:41] <ernst_> well. I pointed aMule to use a folder in /tmp .. worked fine. but at new start I found out that folder is removed. Turns out Ubuntu clears /tmp at start or shutdown.      Is there a way to exclude a folder in /tmp from being clearead?
[05:41] <dfarje> I just have a quick question
[05:42] <epw> IntuitiveNipple: alrighty
[05:42] <dfarje> how do I install wireshark on ubuntu
[05:42] <dfarje> ?
[05:42] <dfarje> I try apt-get install wireshark
[05:42] <dfarje> but it doesn't have it available
[05:42] <usser|work> dfarje: sudo apt-get install ethereal
[05:42] <bullgard4> private_meta: The Ubuntu Grub menu offers a RAM test.
[05:42] <IntuitiveNipple> dfarje: Download it from the Wireshark web site
[05:42] <dfarje> and compile it?
[05:43] <usser|work> dfarje no thats it
[05:43] <alsa> hey , how do u kill the network monitor again ? so that the wireless lan card stays in monitor mode ?
[05:43] <reuven> Hello
[05:43] <dfarje> download it and then run the command again?
[05:43] <dfarje> I don't think they have .deb files
[05:43] <dfarje> just source
[05:43] <Molluck> is it possible to import your firefox profile from windows into the firefox profile for linux?
[05:43] <usser|work> dfarje: wireshark IS IN the repos
[05:43] <RainCT> Molluck: just copy it
[05:44] <Molluck> RainCT, and then how do I "use" the profile once it is copied?
[05:44] <IntuitiveNipple> dfarje: What version of Ubuntu are you using?
[05:44] <reuven> Hello, does anyone know anything about getting Video cards to work?
[05:44] <dfarje> 6.06 LTS
[05:44] <chenooks> hola
[05:44] <usser|work> dfarje: oh sorry then =)
[05:45] <patheticalpanic> hmm i just needed to remount it seems, thanks intuitive nipple, now to bicycles
[05:45] <wacky_> hello! can someone assist me configurating a mutt-imap client ?!?
[05:45] <dfarje> I installed version 5.10
[05:45] <RainCT> Molluck: it's the same in both, just get the (whatever).default from your Firefox data folder in windows, copy it to ~/.mozilla/firefox/ and edit profiles.ini (in the same dir) to point to it
[05:45] <LordTureis> Molluck: see the mozillazine knowledge base on it: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Sharing_a_profile_between_Windows_and_Linux
[05:45] <starshine> I have ubunut on an ultrasparc. sun type6 keyboard has a real alt gr and compose key and some others. what can I pick for console-setup to make it handle that?
[05:45] <blind> I have my wireless status display in my conky, and it shows it (seemingly accurately) ranging anywhere from 85-95%, then dropping to 0 randomly, then popping back up. But when it hits 0, it kicks me off of irc, crashes Gaim, and ruins any game im trying to play online. any clue why this is happening?
[05:45] <dfarje> then it asked me to update
[05:45] <elyase> Hello, is there any modem that is surely supproted under Feisty?
[05:45] <dfarje> so I did
[05:45] <ernst_> how can you stop /tmp from being cleared at startup? (or at least leave one folder in it )
[05:45] <elyase> Hello, is there any modem that is surely supported under Feisty?
[05:45] <dfarje> but how can wireshark not be available with apt-get
[05:45] <Molluck> RainCT, well, I don't use the default profile for Firefox in windows so that complicates things.
[05:45] <Molluck> LordTureis, I will look at this :)
[05:45] <Chousuke> !info wireshark
[05:45] <ubotu> wireshark: network traffic analyzer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.99.4-6 (feisty), package size 566 kB, installed size 1576 kB
[05:46] <Chousuke> hth
[05:46] <RainCT> Molluck: what do you mean, not the default?
[05:46] <IntuitiveNipple> dfarje: Ahhh, it's available in the Edgy repository (6.10)
[05:46] <dbrewer_rjr> i can't get feisty server to take a static ip address on the nic card
[05:46] <dfarje> how do I change repositories?
[05:46] <elyase> Hello, is there any modem that is supported for sure under Feisty?
[05:46] <Molluck> RainCT, I'm saying, I have created custom profiles for Firefox.
[05:46] <IntuitiveNipple> I think you'd need a backport - I don't know there is one
[05:46] <RainCT> dfarje: sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[05:46] <dfarje> I'm new to ubuntu, I come from the gentoo world....
[05:47] <dfarje> emerge sync
[05:47] <elyase> Hello, is there any modem that is supported for sure under Feisty?
[05:47] <private_meta> bullgard4: i'll try
[05:47] <soneil> elyase: for want of a better answer, I'd tell you anything that uses a real serial cable, rather than an internal card
[05:47] <IntuitiveNipple> The latest version of Ubuntu, Feisty (7.04) and Edgy (6.10) have wireshark in their repositories
[05:47] <RainCT> Molluck: you just need to know what the profile folder is named (normally [some random chars] .default), copy it and edit profiles.ini to set the path to that one you want to use
[05:47] <burnerx> has anyone setup LTSP before ?
[05:48] <elyase> Hello, is there any dialup modem for that is supported for sure under Feisty?
[05:48] <dfarje> hello?
[05:48] <wacky_> where is the right place to learn more about configurating mutt-email-client ????
[05:48] <elyase> Hello, is there any dialup modem that is supported for sure under Feisty?
[05:48] <bullgard4> private_meta: If this does not give a clue, you might consider an intermittend contact in your motherboard or to the disk drive.
[05:48] <RainCT> elyase: sure, look at google.com :p
[05:48] <elyase> Hello, is there any dialup modem that is supported for sure under Feisty?
[05:49] <wacky_> where is the right place to learn more about configurating mutt-email-client ????
[05:49] <Molluck> RainCT, I don't think you understand what I am trying to do.  I want to copy a profile called neil2 from Windows to Ubuntu Linux.
[05:49] <dbrewer_rjr>  i can't get feisty server to take a static ip address on the nic card
[05:49] <elyase> Hello, is there any dialup modem that is supported for sure under Feisty?
[05:49] <IntuitiveNipple> elyase: Any hardware modem will be, but WinModems require firmware in the driver to work
[05:49] <W_McL> wacky_: the first place i would try is the manpage of mutt
[05:49] <nickrud> elyase, an external modem
[05:49] <Molluck> RainCT, what should be simple, is made incredibly difficult.
[05:49] <bullgard4> Where is explained the format of this dmesg message: "ACPI: DSDT (v001 INTEL  ALVISO   0x06040000 MSFT 0x0100000e) @ 0x00000000"?
[05:50] <private_meta> bullgard4: if that'd be the reason, then wouldn't more parts of the system not be working?
[05:50] <elyase> hardware modem, I ve never seen one
[05:50] <bullgard4> private_meta: Yes indeed.
[05:50] <IntuitiveNipple> bullgard4: http://acpi.sourceforge.net/dsdt/index.php
[05:50] <private_meta> bullgard4: well, i don't think anything with the system isn't working...
[05:51] <RainCT> Molluck: you need to know on what folder it is (if you haven't changed it in Firefox's folder in Application Data or whatever that's called), copy it into ~/.mozilla/firefox
[05:51] <RainCT> Molluck: or what do you mean?
[05:51] <nickrud> elyase, check zoom, I used one until recently
 yes you're right - but maybe you know something about handling the whole stuff of configure imap step by step ?
[05:51] <bullgard4> private_meta: I do not understand this English. Say it in other words, please.
[05:51] <Molluck> RainCT, do i need to be logged into root to do that?
[05:51] <RainCT> Molluck: no
[05:52] <private_meta> bullgard4: lets say it this way: there MUST be another error... i don't think it's the hardware
[05:52] <RainCT> Molluck: (~ is your home folder)
[05:52] <Molluck> RainCT, well I can't find ~/.mozilla
[05:52] <private_meta> bullgard4: or i just tell you in german
[05:52] <fiRSt> #ControL
[05:52] <achisholm> how do you change the partition that grub pulls the conf files from?
[05:52] <W_McL> wacky_: no, sorry if i knew, i'd have a better tip than a manpage.
[05:52] <Molluck> RainCT, nevermind. I found it
[05:52] <RainCT> Molluck: ok :)
[05:53] <nickrud> wacky_, you could try muttrcbuilder.org (first hit for muttrc)
[05:53] <Molluck> RainCT, ah I am beginning to understand.  i found the ....default and the profiles.ini in Ubuntu
[05:53] <bullgard4> private_meta: Well-nigh possible. If you delimited the problem to just a few programs for sure, then certainly it is no RAM error or intemittend contact.
[05:53] <flyingyellowpig> does anyone knows how to make the ubuntustudio logon and splashscreen to appear on the start up?
[05:53] <W_McL> wacky_: but manpages can often be very helpful, because many config files also have a manpage
[05:53] <fiRSt> !vrewen to saint.
[05:54] <private_meta> bullgard4: -> #ubuntu.de
[05:54] <RainCT> Molluck: nice. isn't that difficult, or?
[05:54] <bullgard4> private_meta: ok.
 oh thank you - sounds good! ...
[05:54] <Molluck> RainCT, It would be if i wasn't able to access the windows network via ubuntu wirelessly
[05:54] <Molluck> RainCT, haha
[05:55] <jughead> I'm running Kubuntu 7.04 (I installed Ubuntu 7.04 then used apt-get to install kubuntu-desktop), and I have a monitor + television setup.  I'm having a problem with fullscreen video on my TV.  When I use Kaffeine I just start the video on my monitor, drag the window to the TV area and maximize it on the TV.  WHen I do it in VLC however, the video moximizes back on the monitort and not the TV.  How can I fix it?
[05:56] <marquigno> ciao
[05:57] <kayef> what is the command that will minimize all window?
[05:57] <burnerx> ciao~
[05:57] <svl> I'm puzzled - why would trying to remove tsclient ("a GNOME program for remotely accessing Microsoft Windows NT/2000 Terminal Services and XP Remote Desktop Sharing") in synaptic make it also want to remove ubuntu-desktop?
[05:57] <mug> i am trying to set up anjuta to use SDL-libs. i googled my ass off, tried every howto, but it doesnt work.. could someone help me?
[05:57] <wacky_> l
[05:57] <marquigno> c' qualche italiano con cui scambiare 2 chiacchiere su ubuntu?
[05:57] <shwag> how can I find out what package owns /usr/share/gtk-doc/html/python-gtk2-tutorial  , that file being one that is not installed on my system.
[05:57] <svl> how can that be a core piece of functionality without which the desktop doesn't work?
[05:58] <RainCT> Tried with 2 keyboards (both the same model :p) and it isn't working on Feisty (on Edgy it did)?
[05:58] <RainCT> do you know what's the problem?
[05:58] <craigbass1976> Can anyone point me in the direction of a web based email client?  Soething like squirrelmail.  I need to to run on top of postfix
[05:58] <Molluck> RainCT, copying.. what should i change in the profiles.ini file?
[05:59] <thomasca> Hey, I was looking for a way to speed up Xubuntu a bit, so I installed the linux-k7 but it didn't change anything with grub or install the image. How do I get linux-k7 working so I can boot up with that image instead of just the generic one?
[05:59] <IntuitiveNipple> svl: I think it's because ubuntu-desktop depends on it, so when you try to uninstall it reverses the logic
[05:59] <RainCT> Molluck: the path to the profile you want to use
[05:59] <dougie> can anyone help me with mplayer?
[05:59] <RainCT> Molluck: Path=
[05:59] <dougie> i compiled the svn version my self and the GUI won't work and also there is no sound output now either.
[05:59] <kosnick> does anyone knows things about ati and tvout? just somewhere to begin
[05:59] <USMarine> craigbass1976 gmail
[06:00] <nickrud> craigbass1976, why not squirrelmail
[06:00] <svl> ah, I see, ubuntu-desktop isn't actually the desktop itself, but just a way to ensure that all default parts of the desktop are present. So I can safely delete the ubuntu-desktop package too, without suddenly seeing my system vanish.
[06:00] <craigbass1976> nickrud, just looking for some more options
[06:00] <Molluck> RainCT, it says "Firefox is already running but is not responding"
[06:00] <ManaPirat> hi there
[06:00] <panzer> ubuntu#es
[06:01] <panzer> howto change spanish
[06:01] <Admins> turk yokmu
[06:01] <Admins> :d
[06:01] <craigbass1976> nickrud, I'm settign up a box and all I want open is 80, but I need a mail server running, only for different users on that box to communicate.
[06:01] <dougie> when i try and load the GUI it says default skin unreadable but i tried several different skins and put them in the correct folder and it still says that
[06:01] <ManaPirat> i have quick question :D
[06:01] <RainCT> Molluck: oh, had the same problem yesterday on my dad's PC.. let's me think what it was..
[06:01] <thomasca> Hey, I was looking for a way to speed up Xubuntu a bit, so I installed the linux-k7 but it didn't change anything with grub or install the image. How do I get linux-k7 working so I can boot up with that image instead of just the generic one?
[06:01] <craigbass1976> speed xubuntu up a bit....
[06:01] <nickrud> craigbass1976, The only one I've used was squirrelmail, I was just wondering ..
[06:01] <panzer> howto change spanish
[06:01] <Frogzoo> how long does the upgrade from edgy to feisty take?
[06:02] <dfarje> thanks people
[06:02] <ManaPirat> rently on windows, my Ubuntu 7.04 is at home and i got not net-connection. But i want to carry home some packages (yafray, blender, gimp) including dependencies on my USB stick
[06:02] <craigbass1976> nickrud, me too, just looking for some others
[06:02] <dfarje> installing wireshark now
[06:02] <zackmur> hola
[06:02] <ManaPirat> where cna i download a package plus dependencies? :o)
[06:02] <alsa> hey , how do u kill the network monitor again ? so that the wireless lan card stays in monitor mode ?
[06:02] <Molluck> RainCT, I changed it from "isrelative=0" to "isrelative=1" and now it pops up with "choose user profile".  I select neil2 from the list and it says "firefox cannot use the profile "neil2" becuase it is in use"
[06:02] <vasser> can someone tell me what is the most recommended file system for ubuntu ?
[06:02] <craigbass1976> vasser, ext3?
[06:02] <USMarine> ManaPirat aptitude?
[06:02] <Frogzoo> vasser: ext3
[06:02] <ManaPirat> <-- currently on windows
[06:02] <USMarine> vasser xfs
[06:02] <vasser> why not reiserfs ?
[06:03] <USMarine> reiserfs is dead
[06:03] <nickrud> thomasca, the k7 is just a dummy package that pulls in generic
[06:03] <alsa> how to kill networkmanager
[06:03] <ManaPirat> my 7.04 ubuntu is at home and i am offline there :-/
[06:03] <USMarine> the development stoped
[06:03] <vasser> does ubuntu support reiser4 ?
[06:03] <USMarine> vasser no
[06:03] <Agrajag> USMarine: since when?
[06:03] <RainCT> Molluck: I think it was deleting some file from there but I can't remember what
[06:03] <dyrne> ManaPirat: you can download the packages from package.ubuntu.com but you will have to grab the dep too
[06:03] <vasser> and xfs?
[06:03] <WanderingSoul> Im having a bit of trouble getting the feisty live CD to start......
[06:03] <USMarine> Agrajag wasn't the guy arrested?
[06:03] <dyrne> ManaPirat: packages.ubuntu.com
[06:03] <ManaPirat> i have to grab them manually yeh? ..
[06:03] <USMarine> vasser xfs pwns
[06:03] <Agrajag> USMarine: Hans Reiser was not the sole developer of ReiserFS
[06:03] <ManaPirat> okay, thank you verry much :)
[06:03] <Frogzoo> how long does the upgrade from edgy to feisty take?
[06:03] <USMarine> ManaPirat yes, from the site
[06:04] <vasser> maybe, but does ubuntu support it ?
[06:04] <Agrajag> Namesys is still developing it
[06:04] <USMarine> Agrajag didnt know
[06:04] <thomasca> Nickrud: So, there's no way to have Ubuntu use K7 or is it just sort of useless to do that?
[06:04] <RainCT> Molluck: if you change isrelative to 0 it will search it in / and not in the current dir
[06:04] <vasser> as main install fs, that is
[06:04] <USMarine> thomasca kernels are generic now
[06:04] <USMarine> vasser ofc, i have that
[06:04] <dyrne> ManaPirat: if youre on a windows pc. you could use ubuntu live cd
[06:04] <vasser> ah, ok
[06:04] <vasser> thanks
[06:04] <WanderingSoul> I keep getting an error from busybox upon startup
[06:04] <craigbass1976> WanderingSoul, I've heard of that a lot.  SOmeone else can elaborate; I've never seen it, jsut heard about it.
[06:04] <nickrud> thomasca, yeah, useless. I'd been away from ubuntu for a while, and it caught me off guard as well. I'm assuming the kernel guys know what they're doing ;)
[06:04] <Molluck> RainCT, well, I changed it back to the default which was =1.
[06:05] <Molluck> RainCT, I tried logging out and logging back in, but it still gives me the same error "it is in use"
[06:05] <dfarje> ?
[06:05] <USMarine> Molluck google for that error message
[06:05] <Molluck> RainCT, do you think it's a compatability issue between windows xp and linux?
[06:05] <RainCT> Molluck: paste a list of all files in the profile folder (pastebin.ca)  (cd .mozilla/firefox/PROFILE_FOLDER   and then   ls    on the terminal. Ctrl + Shift + C to copy it once selected)
[06:05] <USMarine> you'll find the solution
[06:05] <thomasca> Nickrud: Well, hopefully generic doesn't mean 386. If so, then there is probably a chance for better improvement using 686 or k7. :\
[06:05] <ManaPirat> dyrne is the live cd using grub to boot?
[06:06] <Molluck> RainCT, i understood everything up to "and then ls"
[06:06] <IntuitiveNipple> RainCT: Molluck: I've moved a Firefox profile from Windows - it was a simple case of copying the files according to the Mozilla Wiki article
[06:06] <chris__> After enabling the Linux Restricted Drivers for my Nvidia card, my computer's desktop stops responding for about 45 seconds at a time.  I still get audio and can still move my mouse, though.
[06:06] <chris__> Any ideas?
[06:06] <nickrud> thomasca, someday soon I'll look up the reasoning, but I've been using these guys work for a long time and I trust there is a good reason for it. I'll look later
[06:06] <RainCT> Molluck: no it works but there is a lock file from Windows, happened to me yesterday but I can't remember at all how I solved it because I tried a lot of things xD
[06:06] <WanderingSoul> something to do with /dev/tty....
[06:06] <W_McL> Molluck: is there probably still a firefox process running in background?
[06:06] <RainCT> Molluck: after the cd (folder)  write    ls    to print a list of files
[06:07] <alsa> how do u stop NetworkManager ?
[06:07] <thomasca> alsa: sudo init 6
[06:07] <dyrne> ManaPirat: i dont think so. gentoo i know uses silo that might be standard
[06:07] <flyingyellowpig> does anyone knows how to make the ubuntustudio logon and splashscreen to appear on the start up?
[06:08] <nickrud> thomasca, how rude
[06:08] <CharlieSu> Anyone here use Zenoss?
[06:08] <thomasca> nickrud: It would stop networkmanager
[06:08] <Molluck> RainCT, http://pastebin.ca/491314
[06:08] <ManaPirat> yeah, good, but i got no cd burner here ;) .. i am at work, so i stick with windows :-/
[06:09] <ManaPirat> well .. imagine what poor modem users would do if they have to rely on fast internet cafes or friends windows pcS IF THE NEED BIG PACKAGES
[06:09] <ManaPirat> ups
[06:09] <Andeh> Hello. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to have an email address on a subdomain?
[06:09] <nickrud> ManaPirat, we just downloaded over serveral nights ;)
[06:09] <Andeh> Such as email@subdomain.bla.com
[06:09] <thomasca> Andeh: Yes, it is.
[06:09] <RainCT> Molluck: sorry, can you do a   ls -l    please?
[06:09] <burnerx> what can i use to convert avi to ogg ??
[06:10] <RainCT> Andeh: it is, if you own the subdomain
[06:10] <Andeh> thomasca: Excellent, thanks. Do you have any idea how to make it?
[06:10] <ManaPirat> expensive in some areas of the world. Well i am just imagine a plattform-independent package download service (not a now package manager! dont get me wrong)
[06:10] <thomasca> Andeh: Go to your webadmin control panel and click the option that best relates to either email or subdomain.
[06:10] <Andeh> im going to pick a webhosting plan with unlimited subdomains so this would be very useful
[06:10] <Andeh> ok, thanks
[06:10] <KutLuhaN> hello
[06:10] <KutLuhaN> :)
[06:10] <Molluck> RainCT, this list is too tall to copy. help?
[06:11] <KutLuhaN> hi
[06:11] <Andeh> My idea is to have a very short domain name and use subdomains for everything
[06:11] <TakeshiKovacs> hey everyone
[06:11] <Andeh> But most three letter combinations are already taken
[06:11] <RainCT> Molluck: ok, try renaiming that one with the lowest number after your username
[06:11] <thomasca> a.us is probably not taken.
[06:11] <Andeh> LOL
[06:12] <RainCT> Molluck: renaim one, try to start it, renaim it back, renaim the next..
[06:12] <Andeh> Firefox can't find the server at www.a.us.
[06:12] <Andeh> Great idea
[06:12] <Andeh> thanks
[06:12] <Andeh> lol
[06:12] <Andeh> www.a.com
[06:12] <Andeh> Are 1 letter domains allowed? I doubt that
[06:12] <RainCT> Molluck: until it opens.. can't remember how it was called :(
[06:12] <TakeshiKovacs> me too
[06:12] <thomasca> I don't see why not.
[06:12] <eichi> hello, one "suggests" package von kopete is ekiga...but we have problems with egika, so wie removed it..but apt want so reinstall is again..but its no depency, only "suggested" how to say apt, dont install it again?
[06:12] <Andeh> lol
[06:12] <RainCT> Andeh: I think it's 3 at last
[06:12] <TakeshiKovacs> afair not even 2 letter domains are possible
[06:12] <Andeh> let's make a domain wwwww.co.uk
[06:12] <ebeninaMi> Sahibiniz Nerde Lan Aveller ?
[06:12] <Molluck> RainCT, http://pastebin.ca/491318
[06:12] <Andeh> lol
[06:13] <Andeh> 3?
[06:13] <astate> I've already installed ubuntu(7.04), but I didn't have my network card plugged in (pci)...how do I get ubuntu to find it/install drivers/etc without re-installing?
[06:13] <Andeh> Well
[06:13] <Andeh> Atleast with three we're guaranteed to get one thats free
[06:13] <aro> astate, is your network card in right now?
[06:13] <dyrne> astate: if you put the card in when you boot back up does ifconfig -a  show a new card?  or cat /etc/iftab
[06:13] <astate> yeah
[06:13] <soundray> How can I match a paragraph mark in OOo Writer's Find & Replace?
[06:14] <aro> astate, you can type "lspci" in console and see if there is an entry for your ethernet
[06:14] <astate> yeah
[06:14] <Cubey> hello
[06:14] <astate> it shows up in ifconfig -a
[06:14] <Molluck> RainCT, I don't understand what you mean by rename
[06:14] <thomasca> Soundray: ctrl+a+backspace
[06:14] <astate> eth2, I think
[06:14] <mon^rch> okay I am switching (another) user to ubuntu and need to know the BEST support printers... we're buying a new system today..
[06:14] <aro> astate, so you're just not getting an IP?
[06:14] <aro> mon^rch, I have had good luck with almost all HP printers I have tested
[06:15] <RainCT> Molluck: moment let me do a search
[06:15] <Andeh> According to a simple calculation i made, there should be around 162,000 domains possible with three leeeetters
[06:15] <Andeh> and one is bound to be free
[06:15] <Andeh> lol
[06:15] <askand> What irc channel is openoffice support on?
[06:15] <Cubey> Hmm, unless I'm mistaken, Ubuntu has an excellent update system in place that can even completely update the version, or am I slightly mistaken?
[06:15] <mon^rch> aro: ty... dowes that include the all in one units?
[06:15] <kiev_> hello people :) its my first time here anda I have a question... i have a friend with an old computer and i want to install xubuntu, the question is: what's the minimal requirements for it?
[06:15] <TakeshiKovacs> anyone knows why my AMD64 X2 3800+ is somewhere listed for _not_ supporting powersave? apparently cpufreq crashes my system, so I really could need some help with this issue
[06:15] <aro> mon^rch, I can't vouch for EVERY printer, but I have tested a couple printer/scanner/copier in one units and they worked fine by just plugging in USB
[06:15] <astate> aro > actually ubuntu isn't starting it (maybe because its eth2 instead of eth1?)...I just did ifconfig eth2 up, but its not getting an IP...I think I know where to go from here though
[06:16] <Molluck> RainCT, do you think it might have something to do with me ending firefox from the task manager before copying it from windows to linux?
[06:16] <dyrne> mon^rch: check linuxprinting.org for whatever printer youre buying but as a rule i want postcript capable first of all
[06:16] <astate> but I'm not sure how to get ubuntu to start it automatically (server)
[06:16] <soundray> thomasca: and seriously?
[06:16] <aro> Cobey, yes there's a great update system
[06:16] <aro> Cubey*
[06:16] <thomasca> Yes srsly soundray
[06:16] <mon^rch> thanks aro, dyrne
[06:16] <RainCT> Molluck: could be, although I was thinking on shutodnw the PC without close Firefox before :p
[06:17] <Andeh> cubey It can update every single package installed and the release (but only one step at a time, so you cant go from dapper to feisty that way).
[06:17] <thomasca> TakeshiKovacs: http://hal.on.nimp.org/
[06:17] <Molluck> RainCT, you lost me.
[06:17] <abhi> does ubuntu 7.04 have a 3d desktop?
[06:17] <aro> abhi, it has the capability, yes
[06:17] <TakeshiKovacs> thx thomasca, will have a look at that
[06:17] <Molluck> soundray, hey, I don't remember if you tried to help me with my wireless network yesterday, but I got it working finally :)
[06:17] <aro> abhi, it's not defaulted as such
[06:17] <RainCT> Molluck: ok I found something
[06:17] <abhi> aro: ok.
[06:17] <TakeshiKovacs> ehhhmm, seriously: WTF?
[06:18] <soundray> Molluck: that's good news. Well done
[06:18] <RainCT> Molluck: on the file browser, right click on the profile folder and on Properties look what's the file owner and what permissions
[06:18] <coz_> just realized the   update-menus command is not found in feisty   has it changes ?
[06:18] <nalioth> TakeshiKovacs: don't click that link
[06:18] <Molluck> soundray, thanks :)  Sorry if i was a jerk
[06:18] <TakeshiKovacs> already to late,
[06:18] <dyrne> coz_: what does that do? can you just pkill gnome-panel?
[06:18] <TakeshiKovacs> i think adblock prevented the worst
[06:19] <Molluck> RainCT, I don't know where you are seeing this
[06:19] <Cubey> Andeh: Hmm... there reall should be a more automated process for upgrading the system than there seems to be :( I'm reading through the various upgrade steps
[06:19] <Molluck> RainCT, Oh, it says owner: neil - Neil Moore
[06:19] <coz_> dyrne, generally that commnad updates the gnome menus especially if you just made recent changes to them
[06:19] <RainCT> Molluck: that's your account?
[06:20] <Molluck> RainCT, Yes sir
[06:20] <Cubey> I'm just looking up this up to see what all it involves. perhaps by 2008 when 6.0.3 expires on LTS they'll have a better upgrade system..
[06:20] <Cubey> er, 2009
[06:20] <soundray> How can I match a paragraph mark in OOo Writer's Find & Replace?
[06:20] <TakeshiKovacs> is this the way users get treated in the official ubuntu channel?
[06:20] <zaggynl> My usb drive doesn't get mounted automatically, what should I do?
[06:20] <RainCT> Molluck: what permissions does the folder have? try setting all to read&write
[06:20] <nalioth> TakeshiKovacs: no, you got bitten by a troll
[06:20] <nalioth> TakeshiKovacs: troll was removed
[06:20] <aro> TakeshiKovacs, not everyone in here is a good person
[06:20] <TakeshiKovacs> k, then
[06:21] <zaggynl> dmesg shows it being detected and all
[06:21] <aro> TakeshiKovacs, there's 1300 people in this channel
[06:21] <TakeshiKovacs> well, that IRC i guess ;)
[06:21] <loco> can someone help me out here please, everything i restart my pc, my sound resets to its orginal level
[06:21] <nostferka> I have installed some progs
[06:21] <soundray> nalioth: thanks for removing him, he tried it on me, too
[06:21] <nostferka> how do i actually run them?
[06:21] <TakeshiKovacs> 1300? ouch. didn see that
[06:21] <Andeh> Cubey: Actually, you open a terminal, enter a command and your password, then click OK about fifty times then wait an hour and reboot.
[06:21] <Andeh> With windows... eh... i wont even go there...
[06:21] <Molluck> RainCT, where it says "access files' should i change that to "create and delete files" ?
[06:21] <askand> I cannotminimize or close openoffice.. why? :S
[06:21] <RainCT> Molluck: yes
[06:21] <aro> Andeh, click OK in a terminal? Which terminal are you using?
[06:21] <waicman> hello everyone
[06:22] <Molluck> RainCT, did not help.
[06:22] <nostferka> How do i run a program once installed?
[06:22] <Cubey> Andeh: Well, what I'm seeing as far as instructions is much more complicated than that. Maybe it's due to the instructions referring to upgrading from breezy
[06:22] <aro> Cubey, what are you trying to do?
[06:22] <aro> Cubey, update to a new distribution version?
[06:22] <oth> hi, I installed an ubuntu server, works fine, now I need to connect to it using ssh, it says connection refused
[06:23] <zaggynl> Which services takes care of automounting in ubuntu?>
[06:23] <waicman> 
[06:23] <oth> do I need to do something to allow ssh connections ?
[06:23] <Myrtti> oth: do you have ssh-server installed?
[06:23] <sacater> meh
[06:23] <Molluck> RainCT, I think this is beyond both of us :(
[06:23] <Myrtti> oth: install ssh, server comes in with that
[06:23] <Cubey> aro: I"m just doing a bit of personal research, I'm thinking about trying ubuntu and if I like it enough to use for daily web browsing etc I wold like to know how strealines the update process will be down the road
[06:23] <RainCT> Molluck: and if you enter and do the same (read and write) on all the files (just select all, right click, properties)?
[06:23] <nalioth> oth: have you installed 'ssh' ?
[06:23] <oth> I thought it was installed since this is the server package
[06:24] <oth> alright I'll install ssh
[06:24] <RainCT> Molluck: if the problem persists i've no clue... :(
[06:24] <nostferka> I have installed some software, how do i run it?
[06:24] <aro> Cubey, you can either use a graphical interface to update everytime it tells you updates are available, or you can use a command line by typing 2 commands
[06:24] <W_McL> soundray: in the search and replace dialog, click on "more options", there select "regular expression" then you can search for the regular expression for the paragraph mark (i think that's usually a carriage return)
[06:24] <Cubey> aro: Well, I mean the entire "system" when the current LTS runs out etc
[06:25] <Cubey> I assume the GUI won't be able to do that ;)
[06:25] <Molluck> RainCT, no change.
[06:25] <loco> can someone help me out here please, everything i restart my pc, my sound resets to its orginal level
[06:25] <Molluck> RainCT, I will just reinstall extensions and import my bookmarks.
[06:25] <Molluck> RainCT, thanks for all of your help though! :)
[06:25] <Andeh> Hmm... apparently 1 letter domain names are reserved since 1993 so only XORG and NISSAN have them among 4 others lol
[06:25] <Myrtti> oth: server means you need to pick up everything you want to install yourself
[06:25] <IntuitiveNipple> Molluck: Can I suggest you create a new Firefox profile and see what permissions/ownership it gives to the files it creates? You could simply rename the current profiles/ directory so Firefox ignores it.
[06:25] <Andeh> But two letter domain names are fine
[06:25] <TakeshiKovacs> well, il try again. anyone familiar with cpufreq?
[06:25] <RainCT> Molluck: yw
[06:25] <dj_> hmm
[06:25] <Myrtti> oth: not everyone wants ssh enabled
[06:26] <RainCT> Molluck: sorry I couldn't help
[06:26] <oth> yea ok
[06:26] <JuJuBee> I  just installed Feisty and updated my video drivers and now I do not have the option to restart or shutdown when i click the Power button on top right?  Where did they go?
[06:26] <syn__> How can I extract .rar files? Thanks
[06:26] <Molluck> RainCT, oh no, you did help! You helped a lot!
[06:26] <oth> hmm apt-get looks for the cdrom first
[06:26] <ManaPirat> oohm .. i got a staticaly compiled blender 2.44 binary that needs python 2.5 and glibc 2.3.2. Can one of you tell me if feisty got deps installed as default?
[06:26] <TakeshiKovacs> syn__, sudo apt-get install unrar
[06:26] <Molluck> RainCT, i was able to figure out how to change profiles from within firefox in ubuntu.  i feel invincible now lol
[06:26] <tomer> Does anyone know how to bring back the panel object that's like the systray in windows?
[06:26] <ManaPirat> deps = this deps
[06:26] <aro> loco, type alsamixer in console, adjust the sound level, exit, then type "alsactl store" to save the settings
[06:26] <RainCT> Molluck: XDD
[06:26] <oth> how to tell it to look for it from the internet
[06:27] <oth> or skip the cdrom check that it
[06:27] <soundray> W_McL: I got this far, but neither \n nor \p match the paragraph mark. Return enters '\\n' in the search field, but doesn't match para marks, either.
[06:27] <aro> tomer, in gnome or kde
[06:27] <tomer> gnome
[06:27] <Henica> Morning guys. I was wondering -- is there a built in FTP program for ubuntu? Or is there another way that I can interact with the files on my server? Or would you suggest a program that I can do this with?
[06:27] <tomer> the one that holds the Gaim client or Beryl manager
[06:27] <aro> tomer, add notification area
[06:27] <dbrewer_rjr> i have been tring for dayz to make my nic card take a static ip address on feisty
[06:27] <yeti_> !fr
[06:27] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[06:27] <aro> Henica, GFTP
[06:27] <JuJuBee> Henica scp
[06:28] <W_McL> soundray: i just found out that it works with searching for end of line (regex = $)
[06:28] <tomer> aro, thanks a lot
[06:28] <Henica> *giggles* Can I get those by doing sudo apt-get?
[06:28] <aro> Henica, yes Henica
[06:28] <aro> Oops I said your name twice
[06:28] <Lilacor> Henica: ftp
[06:28] <IntuitiveNipple> Henica: sshfs is good - it uses the existing ssh server
[06:28] <Henica> Hehe. So many choices..
[06:28] <aro> Henica, also you can install Firefox extension "fireftp" which is a graphical ftp
[06:28] <Cubey> aro: Am I correct about how the GUI won't be able to, later on down the road, be able to completely update the system? Will there maybe be an upgrade CD that will do everything automatically without destroying user files and settings? or will a fresh clean installation need to be done for the most part and then manually restored backed up settings, etc?
[06:28] <aro> Henica, but gftp works fine and is available through apt-get
[06:28] <tomer> Should I use #ubuntu-effects for gDesklets?
[06:28] <IntuitiveNipple> Henica: With sshfs you can mount your remote server directories in your local file system
[06:29] <aro> Cubey, I'm not sure how the system will evolve
[06:29] <Henica> Hmm.
[06:29] <aro> Cubey, I used the GUI to upgrade distributions once though
[06:29] <Henica> I'll try a few of these out then. thanks for th ehelp guys.
[06:29] <soundray> W_McL: thank you! That worked for me.
[06:30] <aro> Cubey, to avoid losing settings/files/etc you can mount /home to a separate partition from root
[06:30] <aro> Cubey, then you'll never have to worry about making backups if you want to install new root distribution
[06:30] <dbrewer_rjr> HELP! i can't get feisty to let me assign a static ip to my nic
[06:30] <Henica> aro - sudo apt-get gftp gives me the error E: Invalid operation gftp.
[06:30] <aro> Cubey, unless of course you've installed stuff to /
[06:30] <Cubey> aro: righto.. I hope they do something like that. I guess i better do partitions for /home and /etc just in case ;)
[06:30] <aro> Henica, sudo apt-get install gftp
[06:30] <Henica> Right.
[06:30] <aro> Henica, you forgot the install :P
[06:30] <Henica> xD
[06:30] <Henica> It's too early I tell ya. ^^;
[06:30] <W_McL> soundray: no prob. and now i have to go
[06:31] <oth> should I comment main restricted in sources.list ?
[06:31] <aro> Cubey, it's a good habit, just in case you know
[06:31] <Cubey> that is to say, not just make a single / partition
[06:31] <oth> to make it skip cdrom lookup
[06:32] <Cubey> as I recall I used to create /boot, /, /home on installations
[06:32] <dbrewer_rjr> HELP! i can't get feisty to let me assign a static ip to my nic
[06:32] <Lilacor> Henica: ncftp is more userfriendly
[06:32] <Cubey> I'm not new to linux, I just have a hard time liking it..
[06:32] <nickrud> dbrewer_rjr, I have a static ip assigned, I defined it in /etc/network/interfaces
[06:32] <Lilacor> for a CLI client that is
[06:32] <aro> Lilacor, that's subjective
[06:33] <Cubey> Ubuntu sounds like it's on the right track
[06:33] <dbrewer_rjr> nickrud: mine is defined in /etc/network/interfaces, and the mac id is assigned in iftab
[06:33] <dbrewer_rjr> i can't ping the gateway
[06:34] <Cubey> As far as making itself more friendly to Windows users (although, I liked slackware the best of distros I tried in the past. I had issues with the other easier to use ones..)
[06:34] <mcsd> how do I update using apt-get and update a mounted harddrive and not update the live cd files I am running?
[06:34] <ManaPirat> hmm is there any chance for a glibc 2.3.x to be found/installable for my 7.0.4? ;)
[06:34] <Cubey> Of course we're talking mostly 3-5 years ago
[06:35] <Henica> aro gftp seems to work great. Thanks. :)
[06:35] <aro> Henica, np
[06:35] <mcsd> I cannot update using chroot ... cannot resolve web addresses ... but if I exit chroot it updates but I think that is then updating the live cd files
[06:35] <aro> mcsd, are you on the Live CD right now?
[06:35] <mcsd> yes
[06:35] <aro> mcsd, you can't alter the contents of the CD without burning data to it
[06:36] <dbrewer_rjr> nickrud: are you using feisty server?
[06:36] <mcsd> I thought it might just be caching the changes into memory
[06:37] <mcsd> so what happens if I have multiple installs on multiple drives and they are all mounted ...do they all update?
[06:37] <oth> ok I screwed sources.list with vi where can I get a fresh version
[06:37] <aro> mcsd, separate operating systems?
[06:37] <nickrud> dbrewer_rjr, no, desktop. Pinging the gateway: if you can't do that, and interfaces & iftab are correct, it's over my head. I can only do the light lifting on this
[06:37] <QuixoticJ> how can i update my package manager to get the latest version of wine?
[06:38] <aro> mcsd, the package manager doesn't control the package verisons
[06:38] <aro> Quixoticj*
[06:38] <Henica> Is wine better than Crossover? They both allow you to run windows applications.. right?
[06:38] <nickrud> dbrewer_rjr, also assuming your cabling is correct, of course
[06:38] <dbrewer_rjr> nickrud: can you recommend anyone?
[06:38] <eazel7> hi
[06:38] <Henica> Hello.
[06:38] <mcsd> yes...say I have two SATA drives and they each have one install on them if I run apt-get upgrade both drives upgrade?
[06:38] <sipior> Henica: well, crossover is basically wine
[06:38] <eazel7> I'm having a trouble here
[06:38] <sipior> Henica: just guaranteed to work with a small set of applications
[06:39] <dbrewer_rjr> nickrud: we got the same connection working no prob on a xp machine
[06:39] <nickrud> dbrewer_rjr, I haven't seen the real heavy hitters yet today, but they're usually around in a few hours
[06:39] <eazel7> we're testing ubuntu to implement it enterprise-wide
[06:39] <Henica> Well I'm using crossover to run Adobe Photoshop. Once my trial period runs out on Crossover.. could I just switch over to wine and reinstall Photoshop?
[06:39] <eazel7> but I got a problem: I cannot even ping with more than -s 1463 to any host outside the local network
[06:39] <dbrewer_rjr> nickrud: thanks. bbl, time for lunch
[06:40] <sipior> Henica: i would presume so, but it may not work as well depending on what version of wine you're running
[06:40] <eazel7> when browsing internet, anything downloads more than it's first 8kb
[06:40] <eazel7> but the same (basic) configuration works well in windows
[06:40] <aro> eazel7, I don't understand what you're saying
[06:40] <sipior> Henica: another possibility is cedega, another branch of wine, but not for free, alas
[06:40] <eazel7> what can it be?
[06:40] <Paddy_EIRE> how to get my ip address in ubuntu
[06:41] <aro> Paddy_EIRE, ifconfig in console
[06:41] <Paddy_EIRE> k
[06:41] <eazel7> the local addresses works fine, but when I go outside my local network, nothing downloads more than it's first 8kb
[06:42] <Frogzoo> is feisty on the 2.6.20 kernel ?
[06:42] <SlimeyPete> yes
[06:42] <eazel7> the same ip/netmask/gateway/dns works fine in windows
[06:42] <Frogzoo> thx SlimeyPete
[06:42] <eazel7> but not in ubuntu
[06:42] <brianq> anyone available to help me with a second monitor problem?
[06:42] <aro> eazel7, sorry I just don't know
[06:43] <mcsd> Frogzoo: ls /boot will show the kernel versions of you boot files
[06:43] <eazel7> gentoo works well, but mandriva one has the same problem
[06:43] <Molluck> can somebody recommend a better font than the sans font for ubuntu?  it's too wide.  I'm looking for something a little more like Verdana for Windows.
[06:43] <aos> bonsoir tout le monde
[06:44] <eazel7> I want to convince my boss that ubuntu is the best option, we're moving to open source desktops and servers
[06:44] <Molluck> Verdana, Tahoma, or Trebuchet MS
[06:44] <eazel7> and I don't want to hear the word 'nexenta' again
[06:45] <meribaz> eazel7, why would you want to convince him of that, when it's clearly not? :P j/k
[06:45] <eazel7> meribaz: 'cause I don't want to maintain gentoo
[06:46] <soundray> Molluck: Verdana isn't any narrower, though...
[06:46] <vikzx86> How do I stop Nautilius from re opening Widows for each folder?
[06:46] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: Have you got it working?
[06:46] <skarmiglione> hi
[06:46] <skarmiglione> i need to know
[06:46] <soundray> Molluck: the full name of the default one is Bitstream Vera Sans
[06:47] <Molluck> soundray, I probably meant tahoma then.
[06:47] <buba> hi all
[06:47] <skarmiglione> if exist a progrma to recover data for install in linux
[06:47] <Molluck> soundray, I just don't like how the width of sans extends by as much as a CM or more when bolded. you know what i mean?
[06:48] <thefirstdude> why can't I read dvds?
[06:48] <skarmiglione> what i mean is if any know a program to recover data of a bad disk
[06:48] <thefirstdude> I go /media/cdrom0/
[06:48] <thefirstdude> and nothing is there
[06:48] <soundray> Molluck: if you install msttcorefonts, you can use Arial. That's pretty narrow.
[06:48] <FurryNemesis> thefirstdude, I've got that problem too
[06:48] <thefirstdude> I have like 5 players (vlc, mplayer, xine, totem...) none work
[06:48] <buba> qit
[06:48] <thefirstdude> do I need a dvd driver or something?
[06:48] <Thor> automatx
[06:49] <Pici> !automatix | Thor
[06:49] <ubotu> Thor: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[06:49] <Molluck> soundray, I wouldnt use arial for an application font even in windows haha
[06:49] <skarmiglione> nobody know what i need?
[06:49] <Thor> woot
[06:49] <skarmiglione> Please
[06:49] <thefirstdude> FurryNemesis, did you fix it?
[06:49] <pihus> I've heard something about IE4forLinux. Is that possible?
[06:49] <oth> should I mount the cdrom to use it or what
[06:50] <Cosmo__> someone had suggested sphinx to me as a speech to text replacement for dragon naturally speaking for dictation, anyone know much about it?
[06:50] <travel> If I only have a 650MB CD and can't burn the regular Feisty ISO to it is there anything I cna do
[06:50] <dranyam> im trying to install ubuntu and i get this error
[06:50] <dranyam> init: rcS main process 3478  killed by SEGV signal
[06:50] <Paddy_EIRE> IntuitiveNipple, just got my wifi back yesterday, then it went again :( although I freshly did what you said again and now its working :)
[06:50] <dranyam> anyone know what might cause that offhand
[06:50] <dranyam> ?
[06:50] <void^> eazel7: isn't that the good old pmtu-issue caused by bad routers? you can force a lower mtu with ifconfig.
[06:50] <soundray> Molluck: hey, come on, it's narrow ;)
[06:51] <IntuitiveNipple> Paddy_EIRE: Nice one :)
[06:51] <dyrne> travel: get the server iso and then after install sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[06:51] <digital_k> hello again all :)
[06:51] <dranyam> same with rs-default
[06:51] <dranyam> killed by SEGV signal
[06:51] <travel> dyrne, that is the same thing?
[06:51] <ekidd> I tried to apply the new smbclient upgrade, and the Update Manager told me, "You are about to install software that can't be authenticated!" Is anybody else seeing this problem?
[06:52] <dyrne> travel: yeah same os. server install is just a stipped down desktop install. course its not a livecd

[06:52] <dranyam> init: rcS main process 3478  killed by SEGV signal
[06:52] <ekidd> Was the smbclient security fix not signed properly? Or has someone secretly replaced my Ubuntu update server with Folger's crystals? :-)
[06:52] <soundray> Molluck: you might like Kalimati (near-equivalent of Tahoma)
[06:53] <dyrne> dranyam: blasphemy!
[06:53] <Lilacor> dranyam: time to drink a Guiness
[06:53] <dranyam> wtf does it mean
[06:53] <TechBlazer> hello
[06:53] <Enyo> window 3
[06:53] <digital_k> tahoma is included in the mscorefonts now on the repos
[06:53] <digital_k> however, tahoma bold is not
[06:53] <dranyam> this machine only has 128mb of ram
[06:53] <FurryNemesis> thefirstdude, just about to try again
[06:53] <dranyam> but ive ran ubuntu on that before
[06:54] <KiloHertz> Hey does anyone here use OPENBOX?
[06:54] <KiloHertz> Hey does anyone here use OPENBOX?
[06:54] <KiloHertz> Hey does anyone here use OPENBOX?
[06:54] <KiloHertz> Hey does anyone here use OPENBOX?
[06:54] <KiloHertz> Hey does anyone here use OPENBOX?
[06:54] <digital_k> oh wow
[06:54] <Lilacor> whoah...
[06:54] <travel> dyrne, What about if I have a herd 5 CD, would it be better to use a final server then install desktop or just the herd 5 cd and upgrade
[06:54] <FurryNemesis> huh
[06:54] <FurryNemesis> thefirstdude, it works now
[06:54] <Lilacor> KiloHertz: you lagging there buddy?
[06:54] <KiloHertz> I know, bad connection today.
[06:54] <digital_k> lagging, flooding, same thing?
[06:54] <digital_k> :)
[06:54] <FurryNemesis> you might need libdvdcss
[06:54] <ekidd> Is there a security-specific mailing list or IRC channel for Ubuntu?
[06:55] <Molluck> soundray, nope kalimati isn't workin for me :(
[06:55] <Supaplex> KiloHertz: you jump inside, and tape it up. (openbox) ;)
[06:55] <FurryNemesis> ekidd, there's something in the forums
[06:55] <Molluck> soundray, nevermind. I am gonna stick with sans
[06:55] <ekidd> FurryNemesis: Thanks!
[06:55] <digital_k> Molluck:what are you attempting?
[06:55] <KiloHertz> lol suaplex
[06:55] <digital_k> I missed your question.
[06:55] <Molluck> digital_k, I'm just trying to find a decent font that doesn't get too fat when an application uses BOLD
[06:56] <thefirstdude> FurryNemesis, where get libdvdcss from, apt-get says it's unavaiblabe?
[06:56] <digital_k> Sans does nicely
[06:56] <squee_> How do I check what version of glibc I have installed?
[06:56] <justu> hi there
[06:56] <FurryNemesis> thefirstdude, that's bizzare
[06:56] <digital_k> Molluck: do you have font smoothing enabled?
[06:56] <FurryNemesis> just a sec
[06:57] <mcsd> check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline      or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules ls /dev    ALERT! does not exist.  Dropping to shell
[06:57] <mcsd> can someone tell me if that error is from lilo.conf or fstab
[06:58] <FurryNemesis> thefirstdude, sorry, the package is actually call libdvdcss2
[06:58] <FurryNemesis> my bad
[06:58] <digital_k> thefirstdude:you can search synaptic
[06:58] <digital_k> i believe
[06:58] <Molluck> digital_k, haha i just did a search for the digg article that tells how to enable smooth fonts.. it is enabled now.
[06:58] <thefirstdude> I don't like taking the time to open it up;)
[06:59] <eazel7_> when I do a traceroute with a message size of 3000, why would it say that the message is too long?
[06:59] <Molluck> digital_k, omg its nice... except now bold fonts are extremely bold.
[06:59] <thefirstdude> FurryNemesis, says libdvdcss2 is unavailabe to?
[06:59] <digital_k> Molluck: for best results, go into the font preferences, and set the fonts to gray scale and slight
[06:59] <digital_k> those settings look best, IMO
[06:59] <sipior> eazel7: why so long a message length?
[07:00] <thefirstdude> FurryNemesis, what repositories did you add?
[07:00] <Pegg> would you see a performance gain if your PVN traffic came in one NIC and was NAT'ted out a second nic?
[07:00] <FurryNemesis> thefirstdude, I didn't - but you need Universe and Multiverse repos enabled. Got those?
[07:00] <digital_k> extremely bold? i use sans font system wide, and its not terribly bold
[07:00] <digital_k> but i also used the alternate font patches available on the ubuntu forums
[07:00] <thefirstdude> FurryNemesis, yeh
[07:01] <eazel7_> sipior: 'cause I'm trying to understain why I cannot download anything more than 8kb long
[07:01] <eazel7_> sipior: I cannot even ping beyond the 1463 bytes
[07:01] <sipior> eazel7: i'm guessing it doesn't like the fact that you would guarantee packet fragmentation with that size
[07:01] <berk> Awesome, I installed swiftfox browser on 64bit feisty fawn and now flash works!
[07:01] <FurryNemesis> thefirstdude, then that's very weird
[07:01] <Molluck> digital_k, I prefer medium hinting over slight becuase the letter spacing seems "natural" whereas slight makes it seem less readible
[07:01] <sipior> eazel7: pastebin your ifconfig, and we'll have a look
[07:01] <FurryNemesis> thefirstdude, maybe the repos are down
[07:02] <digital_k> Molluck: understandable, we see with different sets of eyes. :p
[07:02] <sipior> eazel7: also, have you changed the MTU for the interface at all?
[07:02] <Molluck> digital_k, indeed :)
[07:02] <SurfnKid> how can you do an alsa reset
[07:02] <eazel7_> sipior: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21154/
[07:02] <Molluck> digital_k, but this bold has got to go. it's terrible!
[07:02] <SurfnKid> to kill dead esd connections?
[07:02] <digital_k> have you tried making app. font nonbold?
[07:03] <digital_k> its probably too skinny then?
[07:03] <eazel7_> sipior: I could paste, but I cannot read the pasted :-P 'cause of the page size
[07:03] <JakReloaded> Hey Everyone - For some reason the "Cube" effect doesnt work any more. I can shift workspaces but not using the cool cube - all my other XGL Effects work fine. Anyone have any ideas?
[07:03] <sipior> eazel7: odd, it doesn't claim any dropped packets
[07:03] <thefirstdude> FurryNemesis, I'm trying the main repository vs us
[07:03] <RainCT> got the keyboard working.. needed to enable "USB Keyboard" in the BIOS, but it isn't a USB keyboard, should I report a bug?
[07:03] <eazel7_> sipior: exactly
[07:03] <sipior> eazel7: could the problem be further down your network? what's your setup like?
[07:04] <digital_k> RainCT: do you have a usb adapter hooked to it?
[07:04] <eazel7_> me->switch->router (internet)
[07:04] <sipior> eazel7: and that netmask is correct? not flat 255.255.255.0?
[07:04] <RainCT> digital_k: to the keyboard? no
[07:04] <FurryNemesis> thefirstdude, then I really don't know what's wrong. Sorry
[07:04] <eazel7> I don't know how am I chatting
[07:05] <eazel7> sipior: yes, it's 255.255.252.0 here
[07:05] <sipior> eazel7: do you have another computer on the switch, and does it have problems?
[07:05] <eazel7> yes, there's a lot of pcs behind the core switch and they have no problems
[07:06] <eazel7> neither this one, when it boots windows
[07:06] <sipior> eazel7: thank you, that narrows things a bit :-)
[07:07] <Pelo> how long is  dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/scd on a 1 gig flash drive is suppose to take ?
[07:07] <sipior> eazel7: what sort of card, btw?
[07:07] <eazel7> ethernet
[07:07] <JakReloaded> Hey Everyone - For some reason the "Cube" effect doesnt work any more. I can shift workspaces but not using the cool cube - all my other XGL Effects work fine.
[07:07] <eazel7> you mean, the vendor and model?
[07:08] <sipior> eazel7: well, lots of those cards. which maker? also, you might consider disabling ipv6, it might be causing issues
[07:08] <soneil> Does anyone have any feedback of how useful ubuntu certification is in the real world?  I've discovered my employer will pay for any educately remotely relevant to my job ..
[07:08] <eazel7> sipior: I don't know how to disable it
[07:08] <Pelo> JakReloaded,  try asking in #ubuntu-effects
[07:09] <JakReloaded> Thanks Pelo!
[07:09] <sipior> eazel7: google "disable ipv6 ubuntu" and i'll bet you'll find something :)
[07:09] <Pelo> soneil,  linux is the wave of the future
[07:09] <dj> join #beryl
[07:09] <Pelo> dj  /join ....
[07:09] <RedACE> Why isn't my clock automatically being synced to a time server?
[07:09] <meribaz> or perhaps the wave of "right now"?!
[07:10] <PriceChild> RedACE, that isn't set up by default afaik
[07:10] <sipior> soneil: if it's not your money, have a go :)
[07:10] <RedACE> PriceChild, that's silly
[07:10] <PriceChild> RedACE, why?
[07:10] <PriceChild> RedACE, it involves installing more packages (easily done via gui)
[07:10] <RedACE> PriceChild, why would you not synchronize?
[07:10] <PriceChild> RedACE, because you haven't got the internet?
[07:11] <RedACE> PriceChild, so then the synchronization fails. It should still try by default
[07:11] <PriceChild> RedACE, if you can synchronise you can quickly dl a couple of packages which would have taken up space ont he cd
[07:11] <nexusSTONE> hi there.
[07:11] <RedACE> most people have teh intertubes
[07:11] <RedACE> PriceChild, I'm saying it should be default
[07:11] <sipior> eazel7: have a look here: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/5177
[07:11] <fanch59> hi room
[07:11] <Pelo> RedACE,  a lot of things could be default,  choices need to be made
[07:11] <RedACE> PriceChild, by your login, ubuntu should do nothing and come with no software by default and the user should have to know to install everything.
[07:12] <fanch59> anyone could help with a problem regarding internet access ?
[07:12] <chris__> Why doesn't "sudo gdm stop" work, even when I am in the right folder?
[07:12] <travel> Should a GeForce4 Go 4200 be using nvidia-glx or nvidia-glx-legacy. I am currently using the non-legacy and its working fine but would legacy be better?
[07:12] <digital_k> Pelo: I highly agree.
[07:12] <Pelo> fanch59, specific questions are helpfull
[07:12] <digital_k> franch59:whats the problem
[07:12] <PriceChild> RedACE, ubuntu has a big "one cd install" thing going on.
[07:12] <sipior> chris__: probably because "." isn't in your path
[07:12] <chris__> That's a really good point.
[07:13] <PriceChild> RedACE, Its about 3 or 4 clicks and a password to get that working.
[07:13] <chris__> I shall try this again, thank you
[07:13] <PriceChild> Pelo, depends how fast your hd is
[07:13] <soundray> RedACE: the default is for the time to sync when an internet interface goes up. See /etc/network/if-up.d/ntpdate
[07:13] <eazel7_> sipior: the network card is NexTreme BCM5752 Gigabit Ethernet Pci Express
[07:13] <Pelo> PriceChild,   usb flash drive
[07:13] <Pelo> 1 gig
[07:13] <digital_k> Pelo: depends also on the size of image you are moving also.
[07:13] <fanch59> i've jsut intalled the latest version of rutilt to have my RT73 work...Before that i could not access the network. Now i'm logged on the wireless network, but can't go on the internet with firefox or gaim
[07:13] <PriceChild> soundray, if you have the ntp packages installed
[07:13] <PriceChild> Pelo, well then your usb bus
[07:13] <RedACE> soundray, apparently not. my clock was off by 15 minutes
[07:13] <sipior> eazel7: have a look at the link i pasted above re: disabling ipv6 in ubuntu
[07:14] <Fensur> a
[07:14] <Pelo> digilink, PriceChild  actualy  dd if=/dev/zero , ie resetting everything to blank
[07:14] <RedACE> my 'synchronize now' button is greyed out too..
[07:14] <eazel7_> sipior: I'm trying to disable it
[07:14] <Pelo> RedACE,  you probably need to select a server to sync to
[07:15] <digital_k> I used dd a couple of times to reimage a hd, moved an image of about 6 gigs, took about 12 minutes or so.
[07:15] <soundray> PriceChild: which they are by default (ubuntu-minimal depends on ntpdate)
[07:15] <allblacks> hi i have a question i have installed firestarter to share an internet connection and the DHCP server is not starting at the start up of the computer what is the command to add the DHCP at the start up\??
[07:15] <Pelo> thanks digilink and PriceChild , will wait a bit longer
[07:16] <arkanabar> I installed the kubuntu desktop.  After I set it to default, the "Options" menu was gone from my login screen, so now I can't get back to GNOME.  How do I fix this?
[07:16] <chris__> sipior:  - that worked, or so it said, but my desktop was still running, as was Xorg.  Thanks for your help though.  Back to the wiki I guess.
[07:17] <sipior> chris__: if you want to kill gdm, the preferred method is "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop". is this what you were doing?
[07:17] <allblacks> may i have an answer at the post that i made before
[07:17] <chris__> Yes.
[07:17] <sipior> chris__: and how about "restart"?
[07:17] <chris__> However, when I attempted to install the Nvidia drivers directly after that, it said I was still running an X server.
[07:17] <Zedfloyd> i am a nubi with ubuntu and linux... does anyone know of a good program for multitrack sound editing??
[07:18] <Pelo> allblacks,  you are not being ignored,  we just donT' know,  try looking it up in the forum or maybe you can find something in here  http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[07:18] <axisys> how do i read a vsd file?
[07:18] <soundray> allblacks: there is a bug related to DHCP and firestarter. Let me look it up...
[07:18] <eazel7_> sipior: gonna restart
[07:18] <fanch59> Zedfloyd: ever tryed audacity ?
[07:18] <TakeOut{u}> Zedfloyd, it might be a good bit of research to have a look at ubuntu studio, and see if any of the packages match your needs
[07:18] <sipior> chris__: out of curiosity, why install the drivers manually?
[07:18] <Ruens> anyone have Dell Wireless 1370 WLAN Mini-PCI Card and actually get it working?
[07:18] <chris__> In the hopes of solving the problem of Ubuntu freezing for about 90 seconds at a time.
[07:19] <Zedfloyd> can i upgrade to ubuntu studio from feisty 64?
[07:19] <allblacks> ok let me put it diffrent do i have to manualy start the DHCP at every boot . if yes what is the command?
[07:19] <chris__> I had Ubuntu working perfectly, and then nuked the install in an attempt to revert to XP for various reasons, and now it freezes (which is documented on the Ubuntu forums)
[07:19] <sipior> chris__: weird, sorry to hear it.
[07:19] <Pelo> allblacks,  it probably needs to be in /etc/init.d or somethng like that,   check in the forum for more htelp on this
[07:19] <fanch59> still no idea for my internet problem ?
[07:19] <axisys> is there a VSD reader?
[07:20] <chris__> So am I.  I'll figure it out sooner or later.
[07:20] <axisys> or VSD viewer?
[07:20] <Zedfloyd> is audacity for multitrack editing... i play guitar
[07:20] <Pelo> fanch59, I must have missed your question ,what was it ?
[07:20] <fanch59> Zedfloyd: yes it is
[07:20] <arkanabar> I lost my "Options" menu on the login screen when I set KDE to default session.  How do I get it back?
[07:20] <soundray> allblacks: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firestarter/+bug/48006 -- have a look at the discussion.
[07:20] <Ruens> anyone have Dell Wireless 1370 WLAN Mini-PCI Card and actually get it working???/ would love to get the wireless card working in ubuntu
[07:20] <Zedfloyd> do you use it that way franch?
[07:21] <Pelo> Zedfloyd, sudo apt-get install audacity    just give it a try
[07:21] <eazel7_> sipior: the ipv6 stack is disabled now, but the problem persists
[07:21] <Pelo> Ruens, try looking it up in the forum
[07:22] <fanch59> Pelo: i have just installed the newest versiono of rutilt to have my rt73 work. Now i can log on the network, but cannot use the internet...
[07:22] <Zedfloyd> ok
[07:22] <fanch59> Zedfloyd: yes i do
[07:22] <sipior> eazel7: hmm...this is difficult to diagnose remotely, i'm afraid
[07:22] <aye_bersuit> cmmm
[07:22] <aye_bersuit> kakaja
[07:22] <sipior> eazel7: so, downloads are slow, or simply fail above a certain size?
[07:22] <Zedfloyd> how do i hook a mic and guitar into my computer to have audacity recognize the sound?
[07:22] <Pelo> fanch59, I don'T know much about this,  do you have the network manage running ? that might be it
[07:23] <eazel7_> sipior: fail above 8kb
[07:23] <arkanabar> Zedfloyd, depends on your sound card.
[07:23] <fanch59> Pelo: do you mean i should not ?
[07:23] <Groovy-Roovey> Where can I go to get help with X11?
[07:23] <Zedfloyd> i have a built in sound card into the mother board...
[07:23] <sipior> eazel7: i've checked the card and it's certainly supported under linux. another thing to try would be rebooting with the live installer CD and see if the network is fine in that case.
[07:24] <soundray> Groovy-Roovey: try here
[07:24] <Pelo> fanch59,  I mean you probably should,  someone told me that while it was not totaly essential some internet apps needed ti to get connected
[07:24] <fanch59> Zedfloyd: just plug in on your sound card and select sound card as entry device
[07:24] <Pelo> Zedfloyd,  there is a #audacity channel
[07:24] <eazel7_> sipior: I'll do that right now
[07:24] <Zedfloyd> ok
[07:24] <fanch59> Pelo: well it is actually running...
[07:24] <skarmiglione> hi
[07:24] <Pelo> fanch59, ok so that's not it then
[07:24] <skarmiglione> hello
[07:24] <fanch59> Pelo: apparently not...
[07:24] <fanch59> skarmiglione: hi
[07:24] <Pelo> skarmiglione,  do you realy watn 1276 ppl to say hello back ?
[07:25] <skarmiglione> anybody knows a prgram to recover data from bad disk?
[07:25] <stefg> travel: all the ....go chipsets work with the standard drivers, -legacy is for MX440 and earlier, like TNT
[07:25] <Pelo> skarmiglione, try the forum www.ubuntuforums.com
[07:26] <pheaver> hello everyone.  i'm using a custom compiled kernel from this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=157560 .  The only way I was able to get nvidia drivers to work is by manually installing using the package at nvidia.com.  It works, except that everytime I reboot, the nvidia module fails to load until a re-run the nvidia install script.
[07:26] <soundray> skarmiglione: a very low-level tool is dd - man dd helps
[07:26] <pheaver> any idea why I have to reinstall the nvidia module every time i boot?
[07:26] <dj> what is that console window I see in videos that is movable by dragging from anywhere on the window and also has no border, its like a floating screen
[07:26] <Pelo> pheaver, put it in /ect/init.d or someting like that
[07:26] <pheaver> Pelo: the installer?!
[07:26] <ManaPirat> hmm what does it mean when the CPU% in top is > 300% for a certain process?
[07:26] <Pelo> skarmiglione,  I donT take pm from anyone
[07:27] <soundray> pheaver: call the script from /etc/rc.local
[07:27] <Pelo> pheaver,  the line you need to start it up
[07:27] <pheaver> although you can make the installer non-interactive by using command line arguments, that just doesn't sound like a good idea
[07:27] <pheaver> i'd rather fix it so that the module doesn't have to be reinstalled
[07:27] <ny00123> hi
[07:27] <pheaver> cause i shouldn't have to reinstall it
[07:28] <L0RAK> hello
[07:28] <dj> anyone know?
[07:28] <L0RAK> can some one give me a download link for Cedega ?
[07:28] <L0RAK> please
[07:28] <stefg> pheaver: rather use module assistant. let  the nvidia script perform an uninstall, apt-get nvidia-source  and do it the debian/ubuntu way. this way the package manager knows what's going on
[07:28] <soundray> pheaver: then it's probably best to create your own restricted-modules package, so as to emulate the way the standard packages work.
[07:28] <ny00123> Does anybody know about uploading community-made packages to Ubuntu servers?
[07:28] <pheaver> i tried to do that
[07:28] <pheaver> using the guides, but i couldn't get it to work
[07:28] <ikonia> ny00123: like what
[07:28] <ny00123> In my case a part of them aren't GPL compatible (though open source) so I should probably use multiverse, if I use something.
[07:28] <arkanabar> I made KDE my default desktop, and now the "Options" menu is gone from my login screen.  How do I get it back?
[07:29] <Pelo> dj,  I think it might just be a theme with no borders
[07:29] <ikonia> ny00123: you don't just upload them
[07:29] <Necator> Hi I'm trying to run azureus and it was on for a about 5 minutes and suddenly dissapeared. now when i try to load it hte window comes up and then dies again. any ideas?
[07:29] <ManaPirat> LORARK Cedega is a commercial application
[07:29] <ny00123> I'm sure I must register first
[07:29] <dj> Pelo, a theme?
[07:29] <ManaPirat> though it is not that much liked, nobody here would provide you with warez, sorry
[07:29] <ikonia> ny00123: you have to submit it for review
[07:29] <ny00123> and maybe there's some kind of a size limit (e.g. no more than 100MB)
[07:29] <Pelo> ny00123,  if you want someting included in the repos I think there are instructions in the site for it ,  in the how to contribute section or something
[07:29] <dj> pelo, I didn't see any options for themes in the console
[07:29] <ikonia> Necator: please start if from the command line and see if you get any debug output
[07:29] <L0RAK> i don't whant a warz
[07:29] <ny00123> Thanks ikonia and Pelo
[07:30] <ManaPirat> so? ;) ask cedega
[07:30] <L0RAK> warez i need the original app
[07:30] <pheaver> LORAK: if you have registered for cedega, then go to their website and download it
[07:30] <ikonia> lorak what do you want
[07:30] <ManaPirat> they sure would like to give you a download or a CD for cash
[07:30] <pheaver> otherwise, you're not legally entitled to own it, and thus it's warez
[07:30] <soneil> ny00123: You probably want to take a look thru https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU
[07:30] <L0RAK> i am 15 years old i can't pay for it because i dont have a credit card
[07:30] <L0RAK> :(
[07:30] <Pelo> dj, oh, I missunderstood your quesiton , it might just be how mplayer behave in console mode, try asking there #mplayer , or maybe it's vlc
[07:30] <fanch59> am i in ?
[07:30] <stefg> Necator: the azu-package is broken (as always). for a quick fix you could try to rename/delete ~/.azureus... on the long run rather d/l from sourceforge and replace the azureus.jar
[07:30] <pheaver> then you're not allowed to have it
[07:30] <ikonia> lorak this is ubuntu support
[07:30] <pheaver> and we're not going to give you a link
[07:30] <ikonia> lorak please stay on topic
[07:30] <Necator> ikonia it says an unexspected error has been detected in the java run time environment.
[07:30] <L0RAK> ok
[07:30] <L0RAK> sorry
[07:31] <Necator> stefg thanks i didnt know that. How do i uninstall it ill just use the bittorrent client that was built into ubuntu
[07:31] <ikonia> Necator: ok - looks like your jvm is having issues, which version / product are you using
[07:31] <ManaPirat> LORAK i am sorry :) .. maybe write the cedega support an email?
[07:31] <defcon> how do I run a terminal command from gnome menu or kde menu, so terminal stays open after command is finished?
[07:31] <ManaPirat> or ask your mom? ;)
[07:31] <Pelo> L0RAK,  use wine instead
[07:31] <atrus> my laptop's external monitor doesn't seem to shut off with dpms. it does when connected to a desktop machine. intel gma 945, with xorg and xserver-xorg-video-intel from ubuntu.
[07:31] <soundray> L0RAK: ask your parents to buy it for you, or register at transgaming.com and ask them what to do.
[07:31] <Necator> ikonia i have sun java 6 web start i got it from the add remove programs
[07:31] <dyrne> defcon: nohup gedit& for example
[07:31] <L0RAK> i will try that
[07:31] <cox377_> i'm trying to find /usr/bin/php
[07:31] <stefg> Necator: sudo apt-get remove --purge azureus
[07:31] <ikonia> Necator: that sounds good. Can you pastebin the error please
[07:31] <L0RAK> thank you very much
[07:31] <defcon> nohup?
[07:31] <cox377_> but it's not there, i php installed, anyone got any ideas?
[07:31] <stefg> !deluge | Necator
[07:31] <ubotu> Necator: deluge is a new Bittorrent client, created using Python and GTK+, intended to bring a native, full-featured client to !GTK environments such as GNOME and Xfce - See http://deluge-torrent.org/ for more information
[07:31] <dj> I've seen it in several videos, the terminal is movable by click-dragging anywhere on it, its also semitransparent and has no menu/border
[07:31] <dyrne> defcon: yeah
[07:31] <ikonia> stefg: he needs to remove it ?
[07:31] <defcon> dyrne: thnx bro
[07:31] <ny00123> :o If I want to upload a package
[07:31] <fanch59> Pelo: i've just realised something reagarding network manager...The interface i'm using to  log on the network is not recognized by it. do you think it could mean that if i stopped n-m i might be able to use wireless ?
[07:32] <ny00123> it seems like I should then become a part of the community
[07:32] <adminian> I am having a wireless config problem with wpa
[07:32] <stefg> ikonia: he doesn't need, but asked how to do it...
[07:32] <soundray> fanch59: that was my thought.
[07:32] <ikonia> stefg: ahhh I thought he asked how to fix it, my mistake, sorry
[07:32] <fanch59> adminian: join the club !
[07:32] <adminian> lol what i c
[07:32] <Paddy_EIRE> adminian, have you installed wpa_supplicant
[07:32] <adminian> yes
[07:32] <soundray> fanch59: I have a rt61 driver that doesn't work at all with nm, so I disabled it completely.
[07:32] <Paddy_EIRE> adminian, whats happening
[07:32] <Necator> ikonia i dont know how to do that sorry first day ^^:
[07:32] <adminian> and network manager
[07:33] <fanch59> soundray: ok. Do you nkow how i can desactivate it without uninstalling it (just in case...)
[07:33] <defcon> dyrne: im trying to add this to kde
[07:33] <defcon> its not working
[07:33] <Necator> stefg whats the purge part do?
[07:33] <adminian> well network manager will not see the wirless card
[07:33] <Pelo> fanch59, I realy wouldnT' know sorry, I have no experience with wifi whatsoever
[07:33] <defcon> id like nmap to stay open
[07:33] <stefg> Necator: delete remaining config-files think as 'apt-get nuke azureuse' :-)
[07:33] <fanch59> Pelo: ok, ty
[07:34] <soundray> fanch59: 'sudo chmod -x /etc/dbus-1/event.d/25NetworkManager /etc/dbus-1/event.d/26NetworkManagerDispatcher' and disable nm-applet as well
[07:34] <Necator> stefg will it also work on wine? since that is broken too and i want to try to remove it
[07:34] <ikonia> !pastebin >necator
[07:34] <dyrne> defcon: nohup should just ignore the kill signal. ive not used kde in  a while but the de shouldnt matter id think
[07:34] <soundray> fanch59: from Sys-Prefs-Session-Startup programs
[07:35] <stefg> Necator: sure... sudo apt-get remove --purge wine ... then delete the (hidden) ~/.wine dir in your home-dir
[07:35] <fanch59> soundray: ok, thanks, i'll try this
[07:35] <defcon> any way to keep my apps open and switch from kde to gnome
[07:35] <defcon> gnome menu editor is better than kde's
[07:35] <Necator> my wine always just sits and says wine creating configuration directory /home/name/.wine... and it stays there and never does anything after that.
[07:36] <Pelo> Necator, try asking in #winehq
[07:36] <adminian>  Paddy_EIRE: not completely sure
[07:36] <Paddy_EIRE> adminian, 1 sec
[07:36] <Necator> pelo one of the guys in there said i have to learn linux first b4 trying to use wine.
[07:36] <stefg> Necator: that might indicate another problem... actually wine became really neat during the last year
[07:37] <Paddy_EIRE> adminian, /join #Paddy_EIRE
[07:37] <Pelo> Necator, well there are asses in every channels
[07:37] <Necator> pelo ya but unfortunately he was the only one there so i just left.
[07:37] <defcon> How do I keep my apps open and switch from kde to gnome
[07:37] <rdesh> how
[07:37] <rdesh> hi
[07:37] <soundray> defcon: you can't switch and keep your apps open. No way.
[07:37] <Necator> stefg do you think my java is messed up? and any ideas on this wine problem ? pelo any ideas on this wine problem?
[07:37] <rdesh> i am trying to use Dejavu sans mono in my URXVT, but it looks awful at the same pixel size in Gnome terminal.  what gives?
[07:38] <vasser> hello
[07:38] <defcon> k
[07:38] <getoo> i had my laptop on "hibernate" and now my sound do not work , i even restarted
[07:38] <wxq2378> automounting of USB disks does not work after suspend to disk. how do i restart/activate it?
[07:38] <getoo> what should i do
[07:38] <Pelo> Necator, kill it, go in synaptc remove it , ( completely),  go in /home/user/.wine,  remove the .wine dir , then goto  www.winehq.com   follow the links ,  install the 3rdparty repos for ubuntu ,  update,  reinstall wine,  and run  winecfg before you do anything else
[07:38] <vasser> i just installed ubuntu on my system, but it either didn't install grub, or that i need to somehow make it boot from grub
[07:38] <vasser> since i am now under windows
[07:38] <AngryPunk> Hello I have a slightly anoying problem that I cannot seem to fix, I am using ubuntu fiesty on a latop, and it keeps pasting text from the clipboard seemingly randomly everywhere.  I think it is because of the middle paste fuction of unix, and that my wrist might be grazing the touchpad somehow. Is there a way to turn off this functionality?
[07:39] <getoo> anyone about my sound problem
[07:39] <Necator> and sudo apt-get remove --purge wine will kill it pelo?
[07:39] <cox377_> where is the PHP binary kept under ubuntu?
[07:39] <sipior> rdesh: does urxvt suport antialiasing?
[07:39] <dyrne> vasser: /msg ubotu grub    for grub install instructions
[07:39] <rdesh> sipior: it should
[07:39] <rdesh> sipior: it looks AA'd, but just uglier
[07:39] <Pelo> Necator,  well it will remove it , but try killing hte process with the system monitor first  ,  the process is wineserver I beleive
[07:40] <ant30> sipior: it have some problems with strange caracter
[07:40] <stefg> Necator: make sure you have the latest java by 'sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin' then 'sudo update-alternatives --config java' to verify your system is using it
[07:40] <ant30> as tildes
[07:40] <vasser> dyrne: how do i know if it installed, i know how to take the boot record and use it under windows
[07:40] <Necator> hmm You two give help faster then I can process all this =)
[07:40] <zzsputnik> hi, i try to install the foo2zjs driver for HP 1018 laserjet as described on http://foo2zjs.rkkda.com/INSTALL   but when i try to $make  i get an error message

[07:41] <getoo> i need help , i had my laptop on "hybernate" now the sound wont work , i even restarted the box .. no sound !!!!!!!!!!
[07:41] <dyrne> vasser: well if windows booted id say the mbr was not overwritten. im sure grub is still installed to the ubuntu partition just not mbr. from livecd open a terminal and cd /boot/grub/ if its there you just need to write to mbr
[07:41] <Pelo> Necator,  I think we found the problem  there should be only one ,   try  sudo killall -9 wineserver
[07:41] <ant30> sipior: xterm support freetype fonts with hinting, and it's very ligth
[07:42] <stefg> Necator: copy and paste the 2 cammands i gave you to a terminal
[07:42] <Necator> i was in the gui for system monitor didnt know i could use it in the terminal
[07:42] <dyrne> vasser: seperate hd maybe? you have win and ubuntu on diff hd maybe you need to change boot order in bios
[07:42] <Necator> ill do that soon as i kill these process stefg. you two are great!
[07:42] <sipior> ant30: that's nice. did i miss a previous part of our conversation?
[07:43] <vasser> dyrne: ubuntu was insatalled on the same physical hd as windows
[07:43] <Necator> pelo can i use the system monitor from the terminal ?
[07:43] <stefg> Necator: i assume you#re on Feisty, aren't you?
[07:43] <vasser> dyrne: also, won't the /boot/grub in the livecd be on the cd ?
[07:43] <wxq2378> Necator: looking for "top" ?
[07:43] <Pelo> Necator, I donT think so , it's a gui thing ,   top is the console one but I donT, know if it just displays or lets you run commands on it
[07:43] <Necator> stefg ya i just installed last night after fixing tons of errors on my computer. I think i broke my bios a little bit too lol. Then i couldnt configure windows for my folks so i was like dammit i wanted linux for a long time let me just install it.

[07:44] <baibbas> or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device...
[07:44] <Necator> pelo so in the gui then i just right click and press stop process or kill process?
[07:44] <dyrne> vasser: yea :) /media/hda?/boot  i mean

[07:44] <stefg> Necator: good approach :-)
[07:44] <Necator> stefg ive wanted to use linux for over a yr but my parents prevented me lol

[07:45] <allblacks> is there a software for ubuntu that can open DWG files??
[07:45] <stefg> Necator: telling tehm they are immune to malware might change their minds (Did in my case after a trojan devastated my dad's pc)
[07:45] <Pelo> Necator, consider rebooting
[07:45] <Necator> pelo they wouldnt let me switch becasue they use aol and they use anydvd/clonedvd2 combo to copy movies. and i couldnt gurantee they could do that on linux so they would always ifght with me lol.
[07:46] <Necator> pelo ya i will reboot but it might take a while since my bios is crazy messed up lol.

[07:47] <pheaver> damn people complain about gentoo taking long to compile
[07:47] <Necator> maybe ill sit in here and absorb knowledge all day XD
[07:48] <pheaver> the friggin ubuntu kernel... now that takes forever to compile
[07:48] <shawn34> anyone have any idea?
[07:48] <Pelo> FunnyLookinHat,  mine is working fine,  it might just be an update probelm with your particular town
[07:48] <sipior> pheaver: really? shouldn't take more than ten minutes or so, unless your machine is truly ancient.
[07:48] <Pelo> shawn34,  try the forum
[07:49] <pheaver> intel core 2 duo
[07:49] <frinux> hi
[07:49] <pheaver> takes more than ten minutes lol
[07:49] <pheaver> everything is enabled in the ubuntu kernel by default, i hate it.... in the gentoo kernel, everything's off, you get to figure out what you need
[07:49] <sipior> pheaver: i'm guessing something's broken then :)
[07:49] <stefg> pheaver: if you compile a kernel yourself you can leave out /lots/ of stuff that's not used for your system.... and not using a 75 Mhz Cpu helps, too :-)
[07:49] <frinux> I cannot manage to join a samba PDC with windows XP
[07:49] <wxq2378> automounting of USB disks does not work after suspend to disk. how do i restart/activate it?
[07:49] <blargh> wow alot of reading cheers
[07:49] <pheaver> siplor: wtf, nothing's broken... it just takes longer than i like it too
[07:49] <pheaver> stefg: yes i know how to compile a kernel
[07:50] <Alam_Debian> I had add a hard drive to my Ubuntu MythTV server, how do I get the UUID so I can add a mount in /etc/fstab?
[07:50] <baibbas> .I installed Vista and it whacked my Grub menu and I can't get Ubuntu to load...I ran grub, did the find /boot/grub/stage1, then did root (hd0, 3), then setup (hd0), rebooted, then now all I get is  Reboot and Select proper Boot device
[07:50] <FunnyLookinHat> Pelo, dang...  thanks then   : )   (I don't know how Denver, Colorado would have any issues)   : )
[07:50] <pheaver> stefg: as i said before, intel core 2 duo (2.4 GHz)
[07:50] <frinux> it seems I have to add a user which corresponds to the machine, but when I launch  adduser client1$ --group dom_pc d /dev/null
[07:50] <frinux> i get adduser: Only one or two names allowed.
[07:50] <Pelo> Alam_Debian,  you can replace the uuid with /dev/sd?
[07:50] <stefg> pheaver: takes around 20 minutes on my oldish Athlon XP+ 2500
[07:50] <pheaver> stefg: that's a long time :)
[07:51] <tam> will ubuntu start without a keyboard/mouse? if not is there a way that i can get it to do so?
[07:51] <Pelo> FunnyLookinHat,  I meant the page for your town ,  might just be temporary while  weather.com updates something
[07:51] <sipior> wow, break out the ADHD meds
[07:51] <baibbas> Why is my question being ignored, I've asked it like 4 times already
[07:51] <sipior> baibbas: we were ignoring you, sorry man.
[07:51] <stefg> pheaver: your C2D should tackle that in 5 minutes... given you leave all the unnecessary drivers out
[07:51] <Alam_Debian> I really want to put in UUID instand of /dev/sdb2 in case I add an another hard driver and mess up the order...
[07:51] <Pici> tam: It should start fine, your BIOS might not though
[07:51] <pheaver> stefg: a gentoo kernel, yes :)
[07:51] <QuixoticJ> I'm back stefg, polo. Where were we?
[07:52] <tam> Pici: aga, i could check that before movin the dinosaur to the cupboard
[07:52] <baibbas> I installed Vista and it whacked my Grub menu and I can't get Ubuntu to load...I ran grub from a live CD, did the find /boot/grub/stage1, then did root (hd0, 3), then setup (hd0), rebooted, then now all I get is  Reboot and Select proper Boot device
[07:52] <pheaver> stefg: but i've found that when i try to tune the ubuntu kernel too much, it just breaks on me... so i end up leaving a lot of stuff in
[07:52] <pheaver> stefg: still, it takes longer to install than any other kernel i've used
[07:52] <dyrne> baibbas: root found everything right? you did (hd0,3) not (hd0, 3) ?
[07:52] <pheaver> plus this nvidia problem is annoying :)
[07:52] <baibbas> no, I typed it in right
[07:52] <pheaver> but i think i found the problem... riva support needs to be removed from the Graphics section
[07:52] <pheaver> there's no way i'm putting the installer in /etc/init.d ... that was just silly guys
[07:53] <cox377_> hello all
[07:53] <pheaver> hello
[07:53] <cox377_> i'm trying to install torrentflux and it says this
[07:53] <stefg> QuixoticJ: are you Necator ?
[07:53] <cox377_> Path : php
[07:53] <cox377_> Specify the path to the php binary (/usr/bin/php):
[07:53] <cox377_> but i've got php5 installed
[07:53] <cox377_> but i cannot find the php binary
[07:53] <QuixoticJ> ya had no clue my names were changing lol. stefg
[07:53] <pheaver> cox377_ : locate php | grep bin ?
[07:53] <genii> cox377 Did you restart apache afterwards?
[07:54] <Gijs> awesome. What do I do if the Ubuntu Update Manager claims that "Authentication Failed" ?
[07:54] <pheaver> lol, no idea
[07:54] <baibbas> dyrne, when I do the find /boot/grub/stage1 I get (hd0,2)
[07:54] <QuixoticJ> ok so one of you posted some thing to me about fixing java, and the other one told me to do something about getting a newer version of wine.
[07:54] <Gijs> as in, the upgrade package for Feisty probably failed its checksum
[07:54] <stefg> QuixoticJ: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin && sudo update-altenatives --config java
[07:54] <stefg> QuixoticJ: sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin && sudo update-alternatives --config java
[07:54] <cox377_> pheaver: is that a command?
[07:54] <pheaver> yes
[07:54] <pheaver> without the question mark :)
[07:54] <baibbas> Then when I do root (hd0,2) I get Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition is type 0x83
[07:54] <QuixoticJ> i can put all that in at once or do i have to break it up?
[07:55] <Pelo> later
[07:55] <cox377_> genii: just gonna try that
[07:55] <stefg> QuixoticJ: all at once
[07:55] <dyrne> baibbas: sounds promising
[07:55] <baibbas> Then when I type setup (hd0) I get
[07:55] <Gijs> hrm. Do I need an up-to-date Edgy in order to upgrade to Feisty?
[07:55] <stefg> Gijs: yes
[07:56] <genii> Gijs It's not strictly neccesary
[07:56] <cox377_> pheaver: it just found the logs
[07:56] <QuixoticJ> it says there are 2 alternatives which provide java then gives me 2 choices and says press enter to select default. stefg
[07:56] <dyrne> Gijs: i never do updates *shrugs*
[07:56] <pheaver> cox377_ : hmm... that's not good
[07:56] <pheaver> you really have php installed?
[07:56] <pheaver> type which php
[07:56] <baibbas> dyrne this is what I get when I run setup
[07:56] <pheaver> or which php5
[07:56] <Gijs> stefg: ok... so I need to download 200MB of packages to uptodate Edgy in order to download probably about double that with probably about 80% overlap in packages to update to Feisty?
[07:56] <stefg> QuixoticJ: choose the one which looks more like sun java 6 :-)
[07:56] <baibbas>  Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists... yes
[07:56] <baibbas>  Checking if "/boot/grub/stage2" exists... yes
[07:56] <baibbas>  Checking if "/boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5" exists... yes
[07:56] <baibbas>  Running "embed /boot/grub/e2fs_stage1_5 (hd0)"...  16 sectors are embedded.
[07:56] <baibbas> succeeded
[07:56] <baibbas>  Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 (hd0) (hd0)1+16 p (hd0,2)/boot/grub/stage2 /boot/g
[07:56] <Gijs> that sounds wrong. :)
[07:56] <baibbas> rub/menu.lst"... succeeded
[07:56] <baibbas> Done.
[07:56] <stefg> Gijs: yes
[07:56] <jbnet> Quick Q: i usermod -aG'ed myself into a new group, any way to get the access w/o logging out/in?
[07:56] <genii> !pastebin > baibbas
[07:56] <Gijs> stefg: :(
[07:57] <QuixoticJ> stefg ok its done terminal is waiting for next command.
[07:57] <dyrne> baibbas: that looks good but in future on irc only paste 2 or 3 lines at most :)
[07:57] <Nitro> My install of ubuntu fails, I think it's because of one of the wrong modules being loaded.
[07:57] <Nitro> How can  avoid that module from being loaded?
[07:57] <stefg> QuixoticJ: so your java should be fine now.... what else?
[07:57] <baibbas> Ok dyrne
[07:57] <baibbas> sorry
[07:57] <baibbas> Now when I reboot I get
[07:57] <Paddy_EIRE> Nitro, do u know which module
[07:57] <baibbas>  Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device...
[07:57] <Nitro> Well
[07:57] <QuixoticJ> stefg wine problems is my most important issues. If I cant give my pops his programs I'm screwed =(
[07:57] <baibbas> I get no Grub menu
[07:58] <Paddy_EIRE> Nitro, no I take it, well have you checked your log files
[07:58] <QuixoticJ> stefg I think it was polo who gave me some instructions to go to some website do something with a repisotiry and get a new version but i dont remember what he said.
[07:58] <Nitro> it says lib couldn't load "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw"
[07:58] <Paddy_EIRE> Nitro, ah ha
[07:58] <Nitro> or firmware_helper couldn't load it
[07:58] <dyrne> baibbas: is bios correct?  is there a floppy in the comp?
[07:58] <dawn_chorus> baibbas, more than one hdd?
[07:58] <Gijs> stefg: ok, thanks!
[07:58] <baibbas> Nope, no floppy
[07:58] <baibbas> There are two hard drives but the other one is just a data drive
[07:58] <Paddy_EIRE> Nitro, for your broadcomm wireless
[07:58] <stefg> QuixoticJ: not everything runs in wine.... so what tasks are going to be done? DVD-backup? then see the !dvd factoid from the bot
[07:59] <azzco> Where should I go if I need help with tv-out/xorg config?
[07:59] <Nitro> Paddy_EIRE, yes..but. I don't have that model.
[07:59] <QuixoticJ> hmm thats odd a box just appeared on my computer that says cannot mount volume. invalid mount option when attempting to mount volume. But i didnt try to load anything... strange
[07:59] <Nitro> That's why I think it fails.
[07:59] <dyrne> baibbas: like dawn_chorus said id check the boot order in the bios to see if the ubuntu hd is set to boot first
[07:59] <Pegg> would you see a performance gain if your PVN traffic came in one NIC and was NAT'ted out a second nic?
[07:59] <Nitro> I have a 1590 series
[07:59] <Nitro> :p
[07:59] <QuixoticJ> stefg can i message you in private so i can link you to a page without spamming here?
[08:00] <baibbas> dyrne the bios boot order has not changed since I had it dual boot with XP and Ubuntu
[08:00] <dawn_chorus> baibbas, can your BIOS read both drives? if it can, activate them both.
[08:00] <dyrne> baibbas: or just do setup (hd1) maybe to write other mbr as well
[08:00] <dj> shit my windows are starting to go black.... anyone have any ideas what this is?
[08:00] <dyrne> baibbas: ah
[08:00] <Nitro> So, I need a parameter when you're about to "Start ubuntu" from the livecd, to avoid getting that module loaded :)
[08:00] <PriceChild> dj, with beryl?
[08:00] <dawn_chorus> dj, nvidia card?
[08:00] <Paddy_EIRE> Nitro, "sudo gedit /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist" then create an entry at the bottom of the file called # bcm then under that type " blacklist Name_Of_Module "
[08:00] <dj> yea
[08:00] <dj> 8800 gts 320
[08:00] <PriceChild> !blackwindows-#ubuntu-effects | dj
[08:00] <stefg> QuixoticJ: post the link in here, pastes go to pastebin ... let others see the solution, too
[08:00] <ubotu> dj: This essentially happens when you run out of video memory. The only known workaround for this until it is fixed in the nVidia driver is to start beryl with --use-copy or "Copy Rendering" from beryl-manager.
[08:00] <dawn_chorus> dj, bug in the driver, afaik
[08:00] <baibbas> The only thing that has changed is that I installed Vista and it whacked the Grub menu
[08:00] <genii>  baibbas make sure no floppies are in the drive when you run the grub-install
[08:00] <Nitro> Paddy_EIRE, yeah. But this is when I'm about to start the livecd
[08:00] <PriceChild> !fixgrub | baibbas
[08:00] <ubotu> baibbas: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:01] <QuixoticJ> stefg its not a solution i wanted to explain my problem in detail so maybe you get a clearer picture of what im trying to acomplish for him.
[08:01] <baibbas> I don't have a floppy drive
[08:01] <baibbas> not on this PC
[08:01] <Nitro> I need the parameter for the kernel, someone said it was "disablemodules=module,module,etc"
[08:01] <Nitro> But, what is the module name?
[08:01] <dyrne> baibbas: im really not sure. id try changing the boot order ro hd1 then and write to that bios. dunno sorry
[08:01] <Nitro> I've tried with bcm43xx, bcm43xx_microcode5 and bcm43xx_microcode5.fw
[08:01] <Nitro> None of them worked
[08:02] <arielgalula> multimedia keys problem in Ubuntu 7.04, but not in the old 6.10
[08:02] <dawn_chorus> baibbas, try the Super Grub Disc.  go into the menu's.  you'll see a way to fix GRUB automatically.  may work for you. http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/Boot/Super-Grub-Disk-8071.shtml
[08:02] <baibbas> can I get into the hard drive from the live CD and create the menu.lst file on the drive?
[08:02] <genii>  baibbas As to the arrangement physically inside the computer. The drive hd(0) corresponds to the master drive on the first ide/sata controller?
[08:02] <r0bby> okay not holding my breath for answer but here goes: what permissions are needed for init.d?
[08:02] <stefg> QuixoticJ: just state what you/he wants to do... in many cases it's not useful to think in windows ways
[08:02] <dawn_chorus> baibbas, you have to boot into the SGD, mind you.  may need to re-configure your boot order.
[08:02] <dyrne> baibbas: yeah but grub can be instlaled on another hd other than the one the mbr is written to
[08:02] <Paddy_EIRE> Nitro, hmmm, Have you tried using the alternative cd? and which vendor is your comp
[08:02] <QuixoticJ> stefg where is the dvd factoid from the bot.
[08:02] <stefg> !dvd | QuixoticJ
[08:02] <ubotu> QuixoticJ: 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
[08:02] <Nitro> HP Pavilion
[08:02] <Nitro> dv6165eu
[08:03] <baibbas> Cool, thanks for the link Dawn, I'll try that app out..it might be what I need!
[08:03] <ilss> To run the live cd, I need a 256mb of memory RAM ?
[08:03] <r0bby> I'm having boot errors like all of a sudden after a power outage (some idiot hit a power pole monday night)
[08:03] <Nitro> Paddy_EIRE, it's just that I need to be able to change the files afterwords, whenn I'm too boot the installed ubuntu, and to do that I need the livecd
[08:03] <dawn_chorus> baibbas, you have to look pretty good for that "fix automatically".  Look under the Linux menu's, Advanced, or so.
[08:03] <genii> r0bby: Usually root:root owns those files and the executable bit must be set on for them to run when booting (eg:  sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/<myscripthere>  )
[08:03] <Nitro> So, can you tell me what the name of the modulename would be?
[08:03] <Paddy_EIRE> oh
[08:03] <r0bby> I did 0755
[08:03] <dawn_chorus> bye
[08:04] <Paddy_EIRE> Nitro, you can do lsmod | grep bcm
[08:04] <stefg> QuixoticJ: so be aware that defeating the CSS protection of DVDs is not allowed in some countries so the libdvdcss-foile cannot be distributed with ubuntu. Get it from the site ubotu mentioned
[08:04] <QuixoticJ> stefg i have 2 programs for him on windows from www.slysoft.com one called anydvd the other clonedvd2. there is a tiny descrption of the 2 programs on the website in the link provided if you can look at them to see what I mean. My dad wants to keep those since its what he knows and hes stubborn. And it just works he only has to make about 2-3 clicks and doesnt have to know whats going on.
[08:04] <Nitro> i'll try that
[08:04] <genii> r0bby:  perhaps do:   sudo chown -R 0:0 /etc/init.d                        then     sudo chmod +x /etc/init.d/*
[08:04] <E_cat> Can anyone help me with installing ubuntu 7.04 feisty on a mac (book) (intel)
[08:05] <r0bby> genii: thanks
[08:05] <kneeki> Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months correct? So, we can anticipate the next release Oct '07?
[08:05] <vasser> dyrne: i have checked and the boot partition seems to have the grub/ directory
[08:05] <QuixoticJ> stefg me personally I would prefer to find some native linux solution but he wouldnt want to learn a new solution or do any step by step ways to acomplishing the same goal. thats why im trying to give him his apps on wine.
[08:05] <PriceChild> kneeki, true
[08:05] <vasser> dyrne: can i assume grub was installed and simply get the boot sector ?
[08:05] <stefg> QuixoticJ: so get him windows again... that's not the approach which will work
[08:05] <genii> r0bby: Let me know if it takes
[08:05] <r0bby> u genii
[08:05] <r0bby> thank you*
[08:05] <r0bby> LOL
[08:05] <E_cat> can anyone help with putting ubuntu on a mac?
[08:05] <genii> r0bby: :)
[08:05] <Pelo> E_cat,  there shouldn'T be any problems just pop in the live cd and follow the instructiions , it's pretty easy
[08:05] <r0bby> sorry - I gotta go - i'll let you know when i do it
[08:06] <Nitro> Paddy_EIRE, no results. I've already blacklisted that module on my suse, since I use ndiswrapper
[08:06] <E_cat> really?
[08:06] <r0bby> just saying thanks for helping - in advanced
[08:06] <E_cat> are you sure?
[08:06] <genii> r0bby: OK, good luck then
[08:06] <QuixoticJ> stefg if i get him windows again i to have to use windows and im the one who has to maintain it and deal with all the time so its just a pain. I have to suffer because he wants aol and 2 burning programs so ive been stuck using windows for so long because of that.
[08:06] <PriceChild> E_cat, you might want to use the mac tools to keep osx on there...
[08:06] <r0bby> thanks, ill let you know
[08:06] <Nitro> !modules
[08:06] <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 
[08:06] <Pelo> E_cat,  unless you already know you have special issues to adress it,s just suppose to be that
[08:06] <E_cat> because, i was under the impression things like having a button for disc eject (on the keyboard) etc hindered the ability to put it on a mac
[08:06] <PriceChild> E_cat, i can't help with that though... but afaik they make it nice and easy to keep both installs on the machine
[08:06] <Paddy_EIRE> E_cat, you must press c or ctrl + c while booting
[08:06] <Kapalars> Does Ubuntu's desktop manager support the equivilent of Windows' "enhance precision mousing" feature -- where moving the mouse 1 inch quickly will move the cursor all the way across the screen, but moving it slowly will only move it a quarter of the way?
[08:06] <Paddy_EIRE> not sure
[08:07] <E_cat> afaik?
[08:07] <PriceChild> as far as i know
[08:07] <PriceChild> sorry :)
[08:07] <Pelo> E_cat, well I donT' know anymore about it, consider checking the forum to see the comments of other mac users
[08:07] <E_cat> alright
[08:07] <Paddy_EIRE> I like cake
[08:08] <Lacrymology> what do I have to install for JRE?
[08:08] <big_c_specv> hey, i run a small network at a coffee shop which is using some old crappy computers and windows with a cafe login system. i would like to use ubuntu as i use it for everything else but i can't seem to find a good prepaid style login software any help would be greatly appreciated
[08:08] <Pelo> Paddy_EIRE,  this channel is for pie eater only , get out of here you freak
[08:08] <Henica> Can I use Crossover/Wine to make a windows game work.. even if it's not listed that it does work?
[08:08] <E_cat> i have it on a pc or 2, im expereienced in installing it on that, but i found a suprisingly large lack of things for putting it on a mac.... (guess people that pay for macs dont want open source :/)
[08:08] <Paddy_EIRE> Pelo, lol
[08:08] <Nitro> Paddy_EIRE, I've found the moduel name, but how do I stop it from loading?
[08:09] <Paddy_EIRE> Nitro, you must blacklist it
[08:09] <dj> ubotu: where is "Copy Rendering" in the beryl manager?
[08:09] <Nitro> Paddy_EIRE, I can't blacklist a module before I install the OS!
[08:09] <Pelo> big_c_specv, try looking in gnomefiles.org
[08:09] <Nitro> 've already said that :p
[08:09] <askand> !java
[08:09] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[08:09] <t325> Hello, does anyone know how to delete all cache files in Matlab (something stronger than clear..)
[08:09] <Pelo> dj,  ubotu  is a bot
[08:09] <big_c_specv> thank you pelo
[08:09] <stefg> QuixoticJ: AOL won't run in linux either.... See, ubuntu is not a cheaper windows clone, things work differently. If he's not accepting that there's a change in the way things are done, and other programs are used he (you) will be emprisoned by windows. His movie piracy will have to adapt to http://www.exit1.org/dvdrip/ instead, and he'll give up anydvd
[08:09] <dj> :p
[08:09] <dj> blah
[08:09] <Paddy_EIRE> Nitro, oh, thats right then you must perform an alternate install afaik
[08:09] <dseaver> will ubuntu work on a dell poweredge 6450?
[08:09] <BigToe> Are there any linux apps to give my CPU a workout? Like, so I can test the cooling?
[08:10] <Nitro> But if I perform an alternate install, I won't beable to blacklist it
[08:10] <Nitro> :P
[08:10] <dj> so anyone know where it is?
[08:10] <nicky> how can I see both the harddrives in the machine?
[08:10] <Pelo> big_c_specv,  memcoder is pretty demanding
[08:10] <QuixoticJ> stefg ya hes willing to let go of the aol if he can get same burning apps.
[08:10] <Refugee> hi guys
[08:10] <E_cat> el oh el yes dseaver it will
[08:10] <fstx> bigtoe: i have seen "md5sum /dev/zero" recommended
[08:10] <genii> aol= evil empire #2
[08:10] <E_cat> but why a dell *sighs*
[08:10] <BigToe> ok fstx
[08:10] <BigToe> thanks
[08:10] <newbuntu> Does anyone know how I might go about fixing this error?   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21163/
[08:10] <t325> Matlab professionals required..

[08:11] <Nitro> I'll go try again
[08:11] <askand> Can someone help me install java?
[08:11] <Molluck> my ubuntu just locked up... what should i do?
[08:11] <ikonia> askand: what part are you not clear on
[08:11] <stefg> QuixoticJ: but these are windows apps... and because they are pretty hardware orinted there's no big chance the are going to work with wine.... linux has a completly different driver model
[08:11] <Pelo> askand,  use synaptic,  search for sun java
[08:11] <genii> t325 That is a paid program
[08:11] <Refugee> /server irc.irc-mania.de
[08:11] <killown> anyone can help me? ,  I need switch icon main menu of my gnome desktop how I do it?
[08:11] <big_c_specv> sorry new to irc and only about 3 years old in linux what is memcoder?
[08:11] <QuixoticJ> stefg so your suggesting to just try to force/convince him to use a linux solution and be done with it ?
[08:11] <big_c_specv> i did a search for it
[08:11] <QuixoticJ> stefg ill just let him know itsi mpossible to use anydvd
[08:12] <Calamarencu> !sound
[08:12] <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
[08:12] <Nicky> There should be two harddrives in the machine we bought but I can only see one of them, can someone help me?
[08:12] <dseaver> E_cat: we have one lying around that we bought oem that is configured from another company, and we had a windows guy try to reinstall windows and it didnt work, so i want to put linux on it and learn more about it in the process
[08:12] <stefg> QuixoticJ: in short: Linux is not windows.... you need to be willing to change your OS
[08:12] <Molluck> my ubuntu is all froze up... what should i do?
[08:12] <ikonia> Molluck: reboot
[08:12] <r3dragon> would someone be kind enough to help me with the ubuntu repositories?
[08:12] <QuixoticJ> stefg thanks you have reassured me. I am willing but im trying to comprise with my parents at same time since they use my computer.
[08:12] <Molluck> ikonia, are you serious?
[08:12] <ikonia> r3dragon: whats up
[08:12] <Rage_> big_c_specv: an encoder for audio/video, very good, commandline.
[08:12] <killown> please
[08:12] <ikonia> Molluck: yes, if your desktop is locked, what can you do ?
[08:12] <killown> anyone can help me? ,  I need switch icon main menu of my gnome desktop how I do it?
[08:12] <QuixoticJ> stefg I will just seek a linux solution and tell him he has to use that or nothing.
[08:12] <r3dragon> here's the deal..
[08:12] <big_c_specv> thanks
[08:12] <Molluck> ikonia, nevermind! it was just firefox starting up... it took 2+ minutes
[08:12] <t325> I have 0 kb left on my system partition(which is the same as my home partition) after having launched a time and memory consuming command ; how to delete *%!^/ cache of Matlab?
[08:13] <r3dragon> i want to install firefox v2
[08:13] <ikonia> Molluck: so it wasn't hung, just slow responding
[08:13] <Rage_> killown: right click on it.
[08:13] <deCon> can anyone help me with my xubuntu install...i'm at busy box and nothing is happenining, it gives a prompt, but i was under the impression i had a desktop. the guys in the xu channel aren't saying anythnig
[08:13] <Molluck> ikonia, yeah why do you suppose it took longer to load firefox than my windows xp does?
[08:13] <ikonia> r3dragon: what version of ubuntu are you using
[08:13] <newbuntu> Does anyone know how I might go about fixing an error with apt-get?   http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21163/
[08:13] <r3dragon> i'm running v6.06 of ubuntu
[08:13] <ikonia> Molluck: first time you run it so its setting up cache ?
[08:13] <stefg> QuixoticJ: i can see your situation, because i was in the same some time ago. after the third trojan infection i simpl refused to flatten the hd and reinstall win again :-)
[08:13] <phlak_user> hello
[08:13] <ikonia> r3dragon: firefox 2.0 is not available for ubuntu 6.06
[08:13] <Molluck> ikonia, 2+ minutes. you seem to be missing that small detail.
[08:13] <ikonia> Molluck: no I'm not
[08:13] <dseaver> how hard is it going to be putting ubuntu on an poweredge 6450?  Will i cd should i use?
[08:13] <killown> Rage, right click dont resolve
[08:14] <Molluck> ikonia, and it's freakin locked up again.
[08:14] <Molluck> wonderful
[08:14] <askand> ikonia:  im trying to install java..im using swiftfox and followed this guide: http://java.com/sv/download/help/5000010500.xml#selfextracting
[08:14] <askand> doesnt work..
[08:14] <ikonia> Molluck: look at your syslog
[08:14] <r3dragon> i should mention that i'm running vmware
[08:14] <Molluck> ikonia, wish i could.
[08:14] <QuixoticJ> stefg im just tired of every time i reformat even with my custom made win cds i made that do most the work for me. I sitll have to maintain an antivirus program firewall all that crap. just to get spyware 6 months down the road and start all over again.
[08:14] <ikonia> askand: use the guides at help.ubuntu.com
[08:14] <ikonia> Molluck: patience, let it release then check the logs
[08:14] <Calamarencu> !partition t325
[08:14] <phlak_user> does anyone know how i can upgrade ubuntu 6.10 to 7.04 using the 7.04 CD?
[08:14] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about partition t325 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:14] <t325> dseaver use alternate cd, try default options first and then google is your friend (and we too)
[08:14] <QuixoticJ> stefg if you were around for some of the big fights we have had over the computer lol. ive been deprived of switching to linux for far to long =( i mean he uses aol for crying out loud =(
[08:14] <ikonia> phaero: put the cd in
[08:14] <ikonia> oops
[08:14] <ikonia> phlak_user: put the cd in
[08:14] <ikonia> let ubuntu 6.10 do the rest
[08:15] <askand> ikonia: what java do I want? free or sun?
[08:15] <Calamarencu> !partition
[08:15] <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
[08:15] <phlak_user> it doesnt upgrade!
[08:15] <ikonia> askand: my personal opinion is sun
[08:15] <r3dragon> thanks ikonia
[08:15] <dseaver> t325: ok, im gonna try it on friday when i'm at work, so i'll be back then
[08:15] <stefg> QuixoticJ: i know... so *you* are the one in control, not your dad. Tell him: See, windows doesn't work, and i won't reinstall /another/ time
[08:15] <askand> ikonia: whats the difference shortly?
[08:15] <ikonia> phlak_user: it should do, you may have to add the cd as a repo
[08:15] <phlak_user> ikonia: i tried that too
[08:15] <dseaver> t325: dapper edgy or fiesty?
[08:15] <ikonia> askand: ones built by sun, the other is open source
[08:15] <t325> feisty
[08:15] <phlak_user> i get a Ign on apt-get update
[08:15] <ikonia> Ign ?
[08:15] <dseaver> thanks
[08:15] <phlak_user> ignore
[08:15] <ikonia> ignore
[08:15] <ikonia> whats an ignore
[08:16] <killown> anyone can help me? ,  I need switch icon main menu of my gnome desktop how I do it?
[08:16] <ikonia> killown: why do you need to ?
[08:16] <FunnyLookinHat> Ignore means that the repository hasn't had any changes to it since you last updated.
[08:16] <BigToe> what are the load averages out of?
[08:16] <QuixoticJ> stefg ive practically destroyed my bios and such fixing my computer these last few days. it wouldnt see my new harddrives and stuff now i got all kinds of bootup problems lol. And then windows crashed on partiotning and i was like screw this i have an ubuntu cd.
[08:16] <nonZero> guys i have a tough problem here.  I just connected a brand new logitech cordless mouse+keyboard.  Gnome drops me to suspend after a minute or so without asking me.  I can't wake the pc up anyway.  please help!
[08:16] <phlak_user> right even though i added the 7.04 CD to the sources.list
[08:16] <QuixoticJ> stefg im not even sure how im going to fix the bios now the startup is such a wierd dance i have to do.
[08:16] <Molluck> ikonia, amazing. i rebooted and clicked the firefox icon.  now it is froze up again.  what should i do?
[08:16] <BigToe> !load
[08:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about load - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:16] <ikonia> Molluck: check the logs
[08:16] <killown> ikonia I have theme macosX I neet switch to icon macosX theme
[08:16] <BigToe> !loadaverages
[08:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about loadaverages - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:17] <BigToe> !uptime
[08:17] <clever> uptime 1wk 10hrs 7mins 47secs record uptime 6wks 4days 19hrs 57mins 56secs
[08:17] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about uptime - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:17] <Molluck> ikonia, 1: it is froze 2: i dunno how to check the logs
[08:17] <BigToe> :S
[08:17] <ikonia> killown: you don't need to - you want to. contact the owner of the theme
[08:17] <ikonia> Molluck: 1.) reboot or let it unfreeze, 2.) look in /var/log
[08:17] <Trip> Hi, i have a problem with my CACHEs when i let my pc on after 2 days he will be very slow and he says : stuff like 70% in use for cache - HOW i RESET MY Cache Whitout a REBOOT ????
[08:17] <t325> Molluck you could use opera if you want a fast fix..
[08:17] <ikonia> t325: thats not going to help anything
[08:17] <Molluck> t325, um.. opera for linux?
[08:17] <fstx> bigtoe: load is the number of processes in the run queue, supposedly.
[08:17] <ikonia> Trip: cache is good
[08:17] <kneeki> ?
[08:17] <QuixoticJ> stefg so which applications can accomplish the dvd tasks that you know ? linux apps so I can configure them and say tough
[08:18] <t325> Molluck yes opera for linux
[08:18] <stefg> QuixoticJ: reset the bios to factory defaults doe not help ?... then probably the MoBo is broken and needs to be replaced. (a new bios chip will be more expensive)
[08:18] <Molluck> t325, opera fails to display all kinds of pages correctly. so no.
[08:18] <stefg> QuixoticJ: i told you:dvd::rip and k9copy
[08:18] <nonZero> OK question 1:  how do i disable suspend/hibernate compeletly
[08:18] <Trip> ikonia, why will he respond slowly then and he wont open programs i need , i'm forced to reboot before i can use my pc again
[08:18] <t325> Molluck and seamonkey? same as ff?
[08:18] <ikonia> Trip: what ?
[08:19] <Molluck> t325, firefox is not freezing ubuntu.. EVERYTHING is freezing ubuntu!
[08:19] <t325> aok
[08:19] <Molluck> that was directed to ikonia
[08:19] <QuixoticJ> stefg thx for all your help.
[08:19] <ikonia> Molluck: check the logs, run a memtest
[08:19] <Trip> after 2 days my pc wont respond normaly , im forced to reboot before i can open stuff like My Home etc
[08:20] <QuixoticJ> stefg one last thing. you mentioned libdvdcss or something like that what is that ?
[08:20] <Molluck> ikonia, you fail to understand my dillema EVERYTHING. FREEZES. UBUNTU.
[08:20] <arielgalula> My HP notebook has some multimedia keys, in Ubuntu 6.04 it's work fine in various players, but since I was freshly installed Ubuntu 7.10 not all of them work.
[08:20] <arielgalula> I configure them via System > Administration > Keyboard Shortcuts, but still don't work.
[08:20] <askand> ikonia: doesnt seem to work either..
[08:20] <ikonia> Molluck: caps doesn't change anything, and your not listening
[08:20] <MojoWork> what are the names of the releases again?
[08:20] <ikonia> askand: what doesn't work
[08:20] <dn4> my browser needs a java runtime environment pluging, is there a way to install that using apt-get?
[08:20] <Lacrymology> uhm
[08:20] <Lacrymology> is archive.ubuntu.com dead?
[08:20] <Molluck> ikonia, i am listening. if i click the desktop, ubuntu freezes. if i click a button, ubuntu freezes.
[08:20] <stefg> QuixoticJ: that's the basic CSS cracking lib you need to even playback a CD... scroll up for hints on where to find it
[08:20] <radiator> Can someone tell me what "ALERT!  /dev/hda1 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!" means when it appears during boot, and also how to fix it?
[08:20] <nickrud> dn4  install sun-java6-plugin
[08:21] <stefg> *DVD taht is
[08:21] <ikonia> Molluck: ok - so 1.) boot from the livecd and run a memcheck for a few hours as thats the most common cause of hardware freezes
[08:21] <askand>  ikonia: too see java in swiftfox even if I followed help.ubuntu
[08:21] <dhq> i am using linux kubuntu fiesty 7.04 kernel  2.6.20-15-386 #2   my graphics is  VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 4000 AGP 8x]  (rev c1)  i dont seem to find proper drivers for my card can any one help me

[08:21] <dn4> nickrud, thank you

[08:21] <PriceChild> !ohmy | Molluck
[08:21] <ubotu> Molluck: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:21] <Molluck> ikonia, what will a mem test do for me?
[08:21] <ikonia> Molluck: if you don't want help - don't ask
[08:21] <zaggynl> My usb hdd doesn't get automounted anymore, is there a service I could restart?
[08:21] <ikonia> Molluck: test your memory
[08:21] <Trip> dhq, nvidia.com
[08:21] <Molluck> ikonia, "we have found that your memory is bad.. and as a result, your computer is junk"
[08:21] <QuixoticJ> stefg again thanks for everything have a good day
[08:21] <ikonia> Molluck: pardon ?
[08:21] <MojoWork> bad idea to upgrade from edgy to feisty with X up and running and such?
[08:21] <lun> lew lew
[08:21] <wxq2378> zaggynl: heh, the same problem i have after suspend to disk. but i did not yet get help
[08:22] <ikonia> Molluck: who has found your memory is bad
[08:22] <PriceChild> MojoWork, no
[08:22] <zaggynl> okay
[08:22] <Molluck> ikonia, it's a joke.
[08:22] <arielgalula> My HP notebook has some multimedia keys, in Ubuntu 6.04 it's work fine in various players, but since I was freshly installed Ubuntu 7.10 not all of them work.
[08:22] <dhq> Trip, i tried it dint help i triend 2 files
[08:22] <arielgalula> I configure them via System > Administration > Keyboard Shortcuts, but still don't work.
[08:22] <PriceChild> !upgrade | MojoWork
[08:22] <stefg> QuixoticJ: so report back when your dad beacme a cnvertee :-)
[08:22] <elek_ubuntu> !upgrade
[08:22] <Nitro> hmm
[08:22] <CotH> Hello people!  I'm getting this error when logging in, it's very slow: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21166/plain/
[08:22] <nonZero> I'm in a trouble - my Feisty drops suddenly to suspend/hibernate!!!! Question 1:  how do i disable suspend/hibernate compeletly?
[08:22] <ubotu> MojoWork: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:22] <Trip> dhq, apt-get ?:P
[08:22] <MojoWork> i usually drop to single user, as i've had X lock up doing it in debian
[08:22] <QuixoticJ> stefg ill report back when he bites my head off and complains for about 2 hours.
[08:22] <Nitro> woohoo
[08:22] <Molluck> ikonia, i do want help.. i just don't see how mem test for several hours will solve "any" problems.
[08:22] <aergn> pffff :(
[08:22] <QuixoticJ> stefg im just going to tell him to wait and worry about this bios bootup problems im having first.
[08:22] <stefg> QuixoticJ: just say : VIRUS!
[08:22] <dhq> Trip, i tried i installed nvdia-glx still no use
[08:22] <ikonia> Molluck: it won't solve anything but it will rule out the most common cause of hardware lockups
[08:23] <ompaul> or rule them in
[08:23] <ikonia> ompaul: exactly
[08:23] <Molluck> ikonia, windows xp runs just fine.  okay i just ruled out the hardware lockup. care to offer another suggestion?
[08:23] <KennyTheGeek> is there any good full-featured bluetooth deamon for feisty? that supports stuff like pairing, obex, network, and so on?
[08:23] <QuixoticJ> stefg it boots seems to lockup then restarts disables the second dvd drive by it self and then loads.
[08:23] <wxq2378> zaggynl: here, autom. mounting works after each reboot and fails after the first suspend/resume
[08:23] <ikonia> Molluck: this isn't windows - ubuntu uses memory with a different memory managment
[08:23] <PriceChild> Molluck, just because windows is fine doesn't mean there's no problem
[08:23] <Molluck> ikonia, okay so it's a problem with ubuntu and not my memory?
[08:23] <aergn> I want to install a NVidia driver, but it says: "An NVIDIA kernel module 'nvidia' appears to already be loaded in your kernel."
[08:23] <ompaul> Molluck, it does not use ram really - I had that with a sim that worked for the maker of the machine until they actually tried some real software on it
[08:24] <aergn> anyone any idea what to do now? :s
[08:24] <QuixoticJ> bios locks up after initial post and detects both hdds and both dvd roms. then i have to reboot it and it disables the second dvd rom and then seems to fuction normally. but both dvd roms seem to work in linux.
[08:24] <ikonia> Molluck: no - and I'm getting a bit bored of discussing this. If you want help great, if you ask for help then argue whats advised, don't bother asking
[08:24] <zaggynl> wxq2378, I just installed ntfs-3g, after that, my usb hdd's don't get mounted anymore
[08:24] <stefg> QuixoticJ: i'd look ate the jumper settings of your (IDE)-drives and check all the cable-connectors are in their sockets properly
[08:24] <Molluck> ikonia, i'm pretty sure that if windows xp works just fine with zero lockups, then it has to be ubuntu with the problem.
[08:24] <Tisk> hello
[08:24] <ikonia> ompaul:  / PriceChild is this guy trolling ?
[08:24] <wxq2378> QuixoticJ: jumpered the drives correctly? ide drives need master/slave per cable
[08:24] <QuixoticJ> stefg ya at first i couldnt install anything ot the hdds. and they were showing up as 8 gigs.
[08:25] <ompaul> ikonia, perhaps - but we will observe
[08:25] <CotH> ikonia: I'm a lot less annoying .  Help me please.
[08:25] <ikonia> thank you
[08:25] <ikonia> CotH: whats up
[08:25] <PriceChild> ikonia, Its very rude to accuse people like that especially in channel. If you have any problems with users please discuss it in private :)
[08:25] <stefg> QuixoticJ: jumper-setting check-time!
[08:25] <ikonia> PriceChild: I realised that as soon as I'd typed it
[08:25] <Arceye> cany anyone tell me how to rename a file that has brackets in the file name ?
[08:25] <mattzz> escape it?
[08:25] <mattzz> \( \)
[08:25] <CotH> ikonia: I'm getting this error when logging in, it's very slow: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21166/plain/
[08:25] <Pici> Arceye: Escape the brackets with slashes \
[08:25] <frafra> hi all
[08:25] <QuixoticJ> stefg all the settings are correct 98percent sure. at first the drives were just showing up as 8 gigs in a partition manager and they wouldnt allow anything to be written to them.
[08:25] <ikonia> CotH: looking
[08:26] <stefg> QuixoticJ: MoBo replacement time , then :-\
[08:26] <QuixoticJ> stefg then i checked and fixed most things and eventually i got them to each show up as 137gigs and they would work but i lost power during an install on the 137gig partition and decided to not bother since the drive is 320gigs and it shouldnt show up as 137.
[08:26] <Arceye> hm
[08:26] <Arceye> not working
[08:26] <wxq2378> zaggynl: i files that bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/114919 maybe you can add a comment if you think it has the same cause
[08:26] <QuixoticJ> so i replaced the ide ribbion and now they show up as the full 320gigs but it does that strange boot sequence i mentioned.
[08:26] <ikonia> CotH: do you get that error every time you login ?
[08:27] <Arceye> can someone help me in pm ?
[08:27] <zaggynl> wxq2378, okay
[08:27] <ikonia> Arceye: just ask in the channel
[08:27] <baldie> how do I format a usb-drive?
[08:27] <stefg> QuixoticJ: that's an ancient BIOS, right?... get a new mobe to get out of troubles way
[08:27] <DrLaunch> I made a 9000 MB ext3 "/" partition, a 1000 MB swap partition and I want to make a 49000 MB fat32 "/home" partition. But it seems like I can't make it larger than 60000 MB.
[08:27] <CotH> ikonia: Only since trying to get WPA to work.  But, yes, every time since then
[08:27] <QuixoticJ> where it loads detects both hdds at proper sizes and then detects both dvd roms. but freezes after that. then i reboot it and it automatically disables the second dvd rom and seems to work after that.
[08:27] <Arceye> i asked in channel but its kind of hard to keep up
[08:27] <ikonia> CotH: thats very strange. Try disableing your wirless nic as some "setting" is causing gnome to fail to load settings.
[08:27] <QuixoticJ> and actually no the bios and mobo arent that ancient or bad. id hate to have to go the new computer route. stefg
[08:27] <frafra> I've a newbie friend, who has installed festy. He had delete /boot/grub/menu.lst. I should say him how to fix it in a simple way. How to do this?
[08:28] <t325> How to delete Matlab cache? 0 kb left on my only partition.. (I'm on OS X so my powerbook came partitioned like that and I'm not currently motivated nor do I have time for backup/reinstall..) but should be similar on matlab for Linux since there's one main version for unix OSes.. and on #macosx they don't know much, on #opendarwin they are very important..)
[08:28] <Arceye> i want to rename a file from xorg (copy).conf    to be xorg.conf
[08:28] <nagyv> I would like to use wengophone, but have two problems. first, even if echo worked before, in the small icon it says Not connected. Second, now it can not recognize my audio output.
[08:28] <nickrud> DrLaunch, you don't want to use a fat32 /home, it doesn't handle permissions properly
[08:28] <ikonia> frafra: if your not a "newbie" like your friend you can help him
[08:28] <clever> Arceye: mv 'xorg (copy.conf' xorg.conf
[08:28] <QuixoticJ> its maybe 2-3 yrs logn shot would say 4 but id say 2-3 at max
[08:28] <t325> (and #matlab contains only zombies and vampires..)
[08:28] <clever> Arceye: and add the ) i missed
[08:28] <ikonia> Arceye: ok and whats the problem ?
[08:28] <MojoWork> hey i dont run gnome, i use openbox. how can i launch the gui update manager?
[08:28] <frafra> ikonia, I don't now a simple way to auto reconfigure all
[08:28] <Molluck> ikonia, sorry for being a pain in the neck :(  i am running the memtest now.
[08:28] <JakReloaded> Anyone - Is there a guide for installing a common set of codecs to get my videos working?
[08:29] <Pici> Arceye: Make sure you prefix the command with sudo though
[08:29] <MojoWork> oh duh. update-manager
[08:29] <CotH> ikonia: It's a restart to test then?  Would right-clicking nmapplet and deselecting "Enable Wirelss" do the trick, or is something more drastic required to disable the NIC
[08:29] <ikonia> frafra: you mean your new to linux too - its not nice to talk down about your friend for being new to linux, more so when you don't know either
[08:29] <stefg> QuixoticJ: all this symptoms indicate either wrong jumper settings on your drives, or a bios that has addressing difficulties.. those were around 1997 :-)
[08:29] <ikonia> CotH: sounds a reasonable test
[08:29] <Molluck> ikonia, I want to learn ubuntu and i won't go anywhere without a bit of patience... so.. i hope i don't destroy every opportunity for help. sorry
[08:30] <CotH> BRB
[08:30] <desvee> anyone that uses Acer computers with the Realtek ALC883 chipset?
[08:30] <nickrud> !restricted > JakReloaded
[08:30] <frafra> ikonia, I'm a developer of an italian distro, I'm a python programmer... I'm not a newbie... but I don't know if there is a simple way to reconfigure his system...
[08:30] <nickrud> JakReloaded, you should have a pm with some info
[08:30] <mdeias> hello
[08:30] <ikonia> frafra: just edit the menu.lst with vi or emacs or something
[08:30] <ompaul> Molluck, you should get three live CDs with 2.6 kernels and try them - bet they all lock up - it is your ram - or we would have hundreds complaining like you are - I have had bad ram before and your telling me exactly what I have seen with bad ram
[08:31] <stefg> QuixoticJ: and the reason linux runs on that is that it doesn't use any bios adressing once ot's booted
[08:31] <JakReloaded> nickrud: Thanks!
[08:31] <asscik> hi someone sould explain me hot to change permission to a file  at every startup??
[08:31] <mdeias> daes anibody how to install mesa 6.5.3?
[08:31] <ikonia> ompaul: its lamost scripting
[08:31] <ikonia> scripted even
[08:31] <ikonia> asscik: which file
[08:31] <ompaul> ikonia, when lockup hate your ram :)
[08:31] <ikonia> ompaul: its totally the most common cause
[08:31] <askand> ikonia: dont know how to fix it?
[08:31] <frafra> ikonia, the problem is that he live in another city... and with a broken boot loader he can't use these pc.
[08:32] <Molluck> ompaul, allright. kind of limited with this laptop, but i will consider that :)
[08:32] <ikonia> askand: whih file
[08:32] <ikonia> which file
[08:32] <QuixoticJ> stefg see its funny the cd rom it disables is the one that had a win xp doing an install that i crashed lol. and its done that since
[08:32] <ikonia> frafra: boot from the ubuntu cd
[08:32] <asscik> Hi ikonia i use qemu and i need to change permission to proc/bus/usb or i can't use usb under guest OS
[08:32] <askand> askand: jre-6u1-linux-i586
[08:32] <ikonia> asscik: /proc is not a real file system
[08:32] <aergn> how do I exit X?
[08:32] <QuixoticJ> stefg i think somehow the bios checks to see if i can start the winxp install again. then hangs cuss its not htere. and then i reboot it disables the second dvd rom and then loads normal which let me install and now lets me boot linuix
[08:32] <asscik> ikonia: don't worry about that
[08:32] <QuixoticJ> but thats just my guess
[08:33] <desvee> anyone that have a solution to sound in Acer with ALC883 chipset?
[08:33] <frafra> ikonia, mmm... it's a newbie... it should reconfigure his internet connection, mount the partition, ...
[08:33] <wxq2378> automounting of USB disks does not work after suspend to disk. how do i restart/activate it?
[08:33] <asscik> i need only the possibility to execute at startup
[08:33] <Arceye> pk gpt the file renamed now lets hope it boots :)
[08:33] <askand> ikonia: jre-6u1-linux-i586
[08:33] <ompaul> !noob | frafra
[08:33] <ubotu> frafra: Words like noob, jfgi, stfu or rtfm are not welcome in this channel. Period.
[08:33] <ikonia> frafra: its not going to reconfigure anything - its just  a live cd
[08:33] <Arceye> gpt = got
[08:33] <ikonia> askand: sorry - I was getting you misced up with someone
[08:33] <asscik> can i add a line in rc.local??
[08:33] <stefg> !grub | QuixoticJ, maybe reading this howto helps:
[08:33] <ubotu> QuixoticJ, maybe reading this howto helps:: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[08:33] <ikonia> asscik: I wouldn't change things on /proc more so permissions
[08:34] <ikonia> asscik: look at why you having the problem
[08:34] <defcon> hey, how do I set keybindings in gnome, like bind sys monitor to alt ctrl del
[08:34] <t325> help with matlab please..
[08:34] <asscik> ikonia: i know the problem and i know the solution
[08:34] <ikonia> t325: what do you want
[08:34] <QuixoticJ> also on another note when ubuntu loaded when i rebooted earlier i got a box that popped up saying cannot mount volume. invalid mount option when attempting to mount the volume. although i didnt try to mount anything so is this a sign that something is wrong some where ?
[08:34] <ikonia> asscik: so why are you asking ?
[08:34] <asscik> change permission to proc/bus/usb
[08:34] <frafra> ikonia, I've understand, but there are 2 way: or in festy live cd there are a recovery tool, or I have to say him how to mount his boot partition, how to edit the file etc. etc...
[08:34] <macpo3> anyone suggest a good dvd player? preferably one that can set the region on a dvd drive - I have a new samsung drive and can't play a dvd from it, I suspect because the region isn't set
[08:34] <ompaul> defcon, system -> preferences  -> keyboard shortcuts
[08:34] <QuixoticJ> possibly maybe because i havent partitioned my second harddrive yet cuss i dont know how in lunx? XD
[08:34] <ikonia> frafra: I'd not use the recovery option so he gets a desktop
[08:35] <asscik> ikonia: i have only asked hot to change permission at every startup
[08:35] <Vegeta^> I have 3 partitions on my HDD, windows is installed in one of them, and in the second Ubuntu is. The 3. is NTFS, but I can't acces it when using Ubuntu. I get the msg: "unable to mount selected volume". How can I acces it?
[08:35] <askand> ikonia: oh..ok..do you know how to fix my java problem :(
[08:35] <ikonia> asscik: put it in an init script
[08:35] <t325> ikonia do you know where matlab's cache is stored or how to delete it inside matlab, with command line?
[08:35] <ompaul> !java | askand

[08:35] <ikonia> askand: I don't know if its a java issue or a program issue to be honest
[08:35] <asscik> rc.local is possible?
[08:35] <genii> macpo3 I like LG stuff, works for me
[08:35] <ikonia> t325: matlab is not part of ubuntu
[08:35] <askand> ompaul: tried that..
[08:36] <askand> ikonia: about:plugins in swiftfox doesnt show any java plugins
[08:36] <frafra> ikonia, uff, byez
[08:36] <macpo3> genii drive is here and in the machine, my problem is to make it work
[08:36] <t325> ikonia I know but since I use a unix version of matlab and ubuntu is unix-like and #ubuntu is the least unfriendly place on freenode..
[08:36] <genii> t325 In fact, matlab has it's own tech support number if you own a legit copy
[08:36] <ikonia> t325: thats not the point. This channel is for ubuntu support only
[08:36] <MattJ> QuixoticJ, install gparted

[08:39] <ikonia> MojoWork: just ask the question as lots of people have had lots of problems
[08:39] <MattJ> QuixoticJ, I don't know a GUI application, but fsck is what you need (in terminal)
[08:39] <desvee> need help with sound in ubuntu
[08:39] <MojoWork> ikonia: lol
[08:39] <MojoWork> just looking for any known gotchas
[08:39] <danshtr> hi all
[08:39] <stefg> !sound | desvee
[08:39] <ubotu> desvee: 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
[08:39] <QuixoticJ> mattj is it preisntalled or do i have to download it also? i dont mind using terminal apps im trying to get use the terminal anyhow
[08:39] <MojoWork> dapper to edgy was sooth as silk for me
[08:39] <danshtr> got problem with t41 desktop effects: http://pastebin.ca/491531
[08:39] <ikonia> MojoWork: if your system is confiugred ok, and your hardware supported and you follow the upgrade guide - you'll have no problems
[08:40] <defcon> what command do I use in gnome main menu to make a terminal app not close after execution
[08:40] <MattJ> QuixoticJ, fsck is already installed
[08:40] <MojoWork> ikonia: i'm a long time debian user. i was inclined to use aptitude to do the upgrade before I looked at the upgrade instructions
[08:40] <ikonia> follow the instructions, you'll be fine
[08:40] <PriceChild> defcon, edit your current profile in gnome terminal
[08:40] <srthsrhsrthsrth> Can someone tell me how to download updates/security updates  from another computer so I can burn to disc....edgy i386
[08:40] <PriceChild> defcon, go to the title and command tab
[08:40] <genii> defcon You can use -d for detach but that will just daemonise (detach it from terminal)
[08:41] <MojoWork> ikonia: yeah i decided to just let the gui try it
[08:41] <PriceChild> defcon, then change the bottom choice to "hold the terminal open"
[08:41] <QuixoticJ> says warning runiing e2fsck on a mounted filesystem may cause SEVERE file system damage. Maybe I shouldnt use this mattj?
[08:41] <MojoWork> ikonia: looks like it agrees with aptitude based on the number of packages, etc
[08:41] <dyrne> QuixoticJ: dont run on mounted system
[08:41] <MattJ> QuixoticJ, not if it is mounted
[08:41] <MojoWork> welp, here goes

[08:44] <ompaul> robthebob, not unless you are a massive database person (gigs and gigs)
[08:44] <PriceChild> robthebob, nothing too much. Many apps don't have 64bit versions either
[08:44] <robthebob> well i had a read, and it seems like the only reason to run it is because you can
[08:44] <PriceChild> robthebob, i suggest staying 32bit unless you know a good reason why not :)

[08:45] <dbrewer_rjr> i can't get the nic card to go out on the cable modem router
[08:45] <dbrewer_rjr> i have tried everything
[08:45] <PriceChild> robthebob, benefits are FAR outweighed by the disadvantages :)
[08:45] <riaal> seriously, anyone doing some kind of backup on there ubuntu install? Whats the alternatives?
[08:45] <stefg> QuixoticJ: '!' triggesr the bot .... /msg ubotu help is the most useful :-)
[08:46] <QuixoticJ> i just partitioned the drive using gparted how can i make it where i can see so i can use it?
[08:46] <robthebob> PriceChild: ok thanks, i guess i'll stick with 32 bit like my gentoo installations
[08:46] <Vegeta^> genii: Where do I put that? Like this?:  "sudo mount -t ntfs -o user /dev/hda1 /media/hda1"? Because that doesn't work.
[08:47] <shenki> hello. i'm using sources.list.d to keep my repositires in order, and was wondering how to set one .list file having priority over another
[08:47] <macd> riaal, what exactly are you asking?
[08:47] <evil> does saying the word crack ban you from ubuntu? Maybe you're more on weed or what?..
[08:47] <dbrewer_rjr> i can't connect to the cable router with my nic card. it works in windows.
[08:47] <macd> dbrewer_rjr, did you power cycle the modem?
[08:47] <grogoreo> in sound juicer you can change the ogg vorbis profile and the quality of the file; it is set at the moment to 0.5 (vorbisenc name=enc quality=0.5) and it comes out to 160kbs or something. On the vorbis FAQ it talks about a setting of 0 to 10, is this 0.0 to 0.10?
[08:48] <ori> can I get help compiling lame library?
[08:48] <shenki> as in, one of the lists has my ISP's mirror, which is faster...but lags behind the main mirror, so i'd like the main to be check secondarily. when using sources.list, i'd just place one below the other
[08:48] <genii> Vegeta^:  Reverse -t and -o options
[08:48] <cein> does anyone know about alt-tab while dragging in gnome/kde?

[08:48] <danshtr> hi all, are there restricted drivers for ati?
[08:48] <dbrewer_rjr> macd: not since the changes were made to it... good idea
[08:48] <ori> PriceChild: How do I install it?
[08:48] <riaal> macd, I probably have to reinstall my ubuntu system.. having problems whit a harddrive... I don't want this to happen again so Im asking how you ppl backup your configs
[08:48] <PriceChild> !info liblame
[08:48] <BigToe> ori, reboot
[08:48] <ubotu> Package liblame does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[08:48] <evil> or maybe it is cracker who leads to being banned?
[08:49] <PriceChild> ori, please don't listen to him :)
[08:49] <psusi> riaal: why reinstall?
[08:49] <Lamego> riaal, you should create /home as a dedicated partition
[08:49] <allblacks> is there a program in linux that will ope DWG??
[08:49] <khin> hi, does anyone know if there are precompiled files for gtk+ for ubuntu
[08:49] <ori> PriceChild: am I violating a whole bunch of patents here? Is that the case?
[08:49] <PriceChild> ori, sudo apt-get install liblame0
[08:49] <defcon> PriceChild, im using a regular terminal, but it is not going back to command prompt
[08:49] <mc44> danshtr: yes
[08:49] <Lamego> that is usually enough if you need to reinstall the system
[08:49] <danshtr> mc44: how do i enable it?
[08:49] <defcon> its not going back to let me enter commands, it stays open
[08:49] <riaal> Lamego, what? =S
[08:49] <mc44> danshtr: on feisty?
[08:50] <macd> riaal, in my case, I have /etc /var on seperate partitions, and /home/$user on a networked filesystem, but there are easier ways todo it, gnome has a nice backup util built in.
[08:50] <srthsrhsrthsrth> Can someone tell me how to download updates/security updates from another (non-ubuntu)computer so I can burn to disc....edgy i386
[08:50] <evil> non of these.. giving up.. going to eat something for inspiration.. ahem.. matlab? does it work? ..
[08:50] <PriceChild> ori, dpends what country you are in... and whether your country believes the patents are legitimate (which isn't true even in places where software patents hold)
[08:50] <ori> PriceChild: It is legal in my country
[08:50] <CodingZen> Anyone wanna help me figure out why i cant unmount hda1 and 2
[08:50] <PriceChild> ori, then you're fine
[08:50] <genii> evil A pox be on matlab!    LOL
[08:50] <riaal> macd, I have a fileserver running, but I hade no ide you could do that
[08:50] <Vegeta^> genii: That doesn't work either: "sudo mount -o user -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /media/hda1".. I'll try reading the info giving by ubotu
[08:50] <BigToe> CodingZen, typo?
[08:51] <CodingZen> BigToe: typo?
[08:51] <xgermx> CodingZen>	sudo umount hda1
[08:51] <wxq2378> CodingZen: still open files? "lsof" for example can help open files
[08:51] <ori> PriceChild: Is there a command to find where liblame0 is sitting? I need to locate it for Audacity
[08:51] <riaal> psusi, my harddrive is messed up =/
[08:51] <macd> srthsrhsrthsrth, Im not exactly sure, but that would be a great improvement for apt or update-manager compile a list of packages with links for the downloads and have a psuedo repo created on a usb stick/cdrom then have apt use it.
[08:51] <genii> Vegeta^:  The "user" option lets regular users mount and use the device but normally it is an option in the fstab and not put from the command-line.
[08:51] <PriceChild> ori, why? sudo apt-get install audacity ?
[08:52] <riaal> macd, you have any url to some guide of that? what to google for?
[08:52] <CodingZen> unmount: no such command
[08:52] <mc44> CodingZen: umount
[08:52] <genii> CodingZen: umount
[08:52] <wxq2378> CodingZen: no "n"
[08:52] <macsim> CodingZen, c umount
[08:52] <psusi> riaal: is it really messed up, or do you just want to replace it before it does get really messed up?
[08:52] <BigToe> CodingZen, umount
[08:52] <ori> PriceChild: when you export to MP3 it asks you to locate the libmp3lame.so library
[08:52] <psusi> riaal: i.e. why not just copy your current system to the new disk?
[08:52] <ori> PriceChild: due to lame not being free or something, so you need to locate it yourself
[08:53] <CodingZen> BigToe: sweet.. thnx...
[08:53] <macd> riaal, In my case, my file server runs NFS, then you simply mount your NFS share on your workstation (also allows you to use multiple workstations that all seem identical)   you should search for mouning /home directoies on an NFS share

[08:53] <macd> CodingZen, there are flags you can set in fstab to allow that, type 'man fstab'

[08:54] <PriceChild> BigToe, Please stop giving obviously incorrect advice.
[08:54] <psusi> riaal: no, what do you mean overlapping?  what's your fdisk -l look like?

[08:54] <macd> mosibfu, 'df -h' may help explain that

[08:57] <outlet> hm... may i ask a question about a USB - DVB- adapter
[08:57] <mosibfu> i have a nforce 4, 250 gb maxtor sata drive, /dev/sda2 is 136G used (with df -h)

[08:57] <PriceChild> starGaming, you get the best selection of packages
[08:57] <macd> dcordes, you should read about iptables.
[08:57] <idefixx> macd: File -> generate packe download script, never used it though. gonne check out what that does now :)
[08:57] <wxq2378> starGaming: yes, better support. e.g. no flash for 64 bit etc
[08:57] <tondar> recommend a programming language for linux
[08:57] <compengi> !ask > outlet
[08:57] <macd> idefixx, I dont even see that, hehe

[08:58] <wxq2378> tondar: python :-)
[08:58] <ompaul> tondar, python at the desktop level
[08:58] <tondar> i want it to be GUI
[08:58] <dcordes> macd, I'm looking not only for iptables but also for dhcp.
[08:58] <genii> mosibfu: Alls well then
[08:58] <riaal> psusi, check out http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21171/  looks like the old empty windows partion is showing  (its on the 300gb disk)
[08:58] <tondar> and to make GUI with

[08:58] <starGaming> Smalltalk/Squeak
[08:58] <Pici> tondar: I havent used it, but I hear its easy to use
[08:58] <outlet> I have problems while using the Pinnacle usbstick, i have already aquired the ubuntu-wiki but the links gaven in there are incorrect
[08:58] <macd> dcordes, then add dhcpd to your reading list ;)
[08:59] <mosibfu> @genii but where in my / is that data? i cannot imagine i installed so much.
[08:59] <idefixx> macd: well its a dumb wget script.. you'd still have to make a repository, for which you could use mini-dinstall or something
[08:59] <macd> dcordes, http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-8971.html should help you.
[08:59] <juice`> is it possible to autologon in ubuntu? i really need it - i use ubuntu as remote system without keyboard and some services are started AFTER i login
[08:59] <riaal> psusi, you still here mate?

[08:59] <macd> idefixx, yes, sounds like a good place for improvement with synaptic/apt
[08:59] <tondar> gambas, python ... ?
[08:59] <dyrne> juice`: sudo gdmsetup  and there is option for autologin
[09:00] <juice`> dyrne: thank you.
[09:00] <Pici> tondar: python is very widely used
[09:00] <ori> PriceChild: I cannot find it

[09:00] <tondar> Pici: yeah thought so
[09:01] <Twitwi> I'm trying to install Ubuntu, but my computer won't boot from the CD, even if I change my boot config -_-
[09:01] <mosibfu> @genii that could make sense, running with overclock, had some crashes befor i had it stabile.. where can i delete logs?
[09:01] <tondar> ok what is a good reference for python prog in linux?
[09:01] <starGaming> any clue how to remove Int 14 error while installing on an amd64 using i386 install?
[09:01] <tondar> ?
[09:01] <tikka> Twitwi, maybe the cd is not written properly
[09:01] <dyrne> tondar: common wisdom would say ruby or python but i think learning scripting bash and then c/c++ is more satisfying
[09:01] <genii> mosibfu: Usually they are all in /var/log
[09:01] <mosibfu> @twitwi you might wanna hit f8 when it loads bios, sometimes it gives menu from wich disck to boot, might help
[09:01] <tondar> dyrne: well

[09:01] <Twitwi> Yes it is, it works just fine and tells me to boot from the CD, but I just can't boot from CD
[09:01] <genii> mosibfu: (and various subdirs of that)
[09:02] <skiper> ybermaya.net
[09:02] <Twitwi> mosibfu: Already used F8 ;)
[09:02] <eternal_p> JammasterJay: iwlist rate
[09:02] <tondar> but I want something with fair amount of references and also up to date
[09:02] <grogoreo> in sound juicer you can change the ogg vorbis profile and the quality of the file; it is set at the moment to 0.5 (vorbisenc name=enc quality=0.5) and it comes out to 160kbs or something. On the vorbis FAQ it talks about a setting of 0 to 10, is this 0.0 to 0.10?
[09:02] <mosibfu> genii: about 750 mb in var. cant be missing 100 gb in there i guess..
[09:03] <tondar> you know something that is used generally by most
[09:03] <XiXaQ> What's the command for deactivating a network interface?
[09:03] <ori> c compiler cannot create executables, what command do I use to fix this?
[09:03] <wxq2378> XiXaQ: ifdown eth0
[09:03] <LjL> !build-essential > ori    (ori, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:03] <erUSUL> grogoreo: 0.1 to 1
[09:03] <outlet> How can I make ubuntu to accept the DVB stick? it even dont recognize that i have plugget it in ...
[09:03] <tondar> ok any good sites or references for python on linux
[09:03] <tondar> and gimme an IDE for it too
[09:03] <psusi> riaal: oh wow, that is hosed up, how the heck did you do that?
[09:03] <albert> hi, i need a tool for ripping my audio-cds to mp3 (mp3 cause of my mp3-player, which doesn't support ogg). also i need it to "overread" damaged parts instead of braking down my pc (which happened to me with some tools)
[09:04] <grogoreo> erUSUL: so a 5 in the FAQ is 0.5 in the encoder?
[09:04] <xgermx> XiXaQ - eth0 down  (replace eth0 w/ the name of your adapter)
[09:04] <Pici> tondar: I use SPE, and python.org has some good places to get started
[09:04] <ori> thanks
[09:04] <erUSUL> grogoreo: yes, that's the idea
[09:04] <grogoreo> erUSUL: that's great, thanks man
[09:04] <tondar> Pici: SPE is an IDE?
[09:04] <tondar> Pici: any link ?
[09:04] <genii> mosibfu: There was some command I previously did to discover the large files but offhand forget atm. May be ls -Rh variation with grep for Gb   or similar
[09:04] <Pici> tondar: Yep. Hold on.
[09:04] <Molluck> how many tests are there for memtest 86 v1.65?
[09:04] <Alexio> hey, I need some help. I've just installed ubuntu server (7.04) and I'm trying to install the desktop with sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop. However, it doesn't ever find any packages. What am I doing wrong?
[09:05] <ahaskins> Hello, everyone.
[09:05] <erUSUL> albert: grip or sound juicer
[09:05] <albert> Alexio: gnome-desktop
[09:05] <ompaul> Molluck, you reboot and use it with no other software running and leave it as long as you want
[09:05] <Pici> tondar: http://pythonide.blogspot.com/  Its in the repos too I believe.
[09:05] <Alexio> albert they changed the name?
[09:05] <psusi> riaal: you seem to have your swap partition, an ntfs partition, and a fat32 partition all in the same space
[09:05] <mc44> Alexio: are you connected to the internet?
[09:05] <riaal> psusi, no problem at all, just put a #&/( windows dvd in the cd and it will kindly do it for you =)
[09:05] <craigbass1976> I can't start up apache2.  I don't get any errors or anything.  Did I install it right?  There's an apache2 in my /etc/init.d, and there's also an apache, but that's 1.3
[09:05] <Alexio> yes
[09:05] <tondar> Pici: thank you
[09:05] <mc44> Alexio: no ubuntu-desktop is the right name
[09:05] <tondar> Pici: you a programmer?
[09:05] <Alexio> when I use nslookup google.com, it works
[09:05] <ompaul> Molluck, but it does not catch 100% which is why I said 3 live cds
[09:05] <Molluck> ompaul, that doesn't answer my question. i want to know how many tests there are. I'm on test #7.
[09:06] <psusi> riaal: so I assume that your windows install is trashed?
[09:06] <Alexio> I havn't touched the sources list
[09:06] <albert> Alexio: i think it's gnome-desktop, even though i don't understand why you did a server install in the first place
[09:06] <mc44> Alexio: what error does apt give?
[09:06] <albert> erUSUL, thanks
[09:06] <Alexio> it says no packages will be installed
[09:06] <ahaskins> Hmmmmm... I, too, have a question. Something's messed up with my video output driver, and I don't know what it is. When I try to play a movie file, the video is black... until I try to resize or move the window, then it flickers on and off.
[09:06] <mc44> Alexio: because...
[09:07] <ahaskins> This happens in VLC, and Media Player. MPlayer refuses to play without a video output.
[09:07] <Bagoor> I'm looking for a screen capture application to capture some 3D stuff. Give me a suggestion :)
[09:07] <DeafByBeheading> how do i set up my boot scripts (on the command line--I'm configuring a server with no X) to automatically configure my wireless card when booting up? someone pointed me to man interfaces, but i'm still a little lost. i understand how to do it once using iwconfig, but i want it to happen automagically on boot.
[09:07] <Alexio> packages containing "ununtu-desktop" in their description: a whole load of useless packages
[09:07] <khin> hi, is there some standard place i should check on ubuntu if i want to see if any random piece of software is installed already
[09:07] <jrib> ahaskins: weird, did it ever work right?
[09:07] <Alexio> then it says, no package will be installed
[09:07] <jrib> khin: synaptic
[09:07] <tondar> Pici: with this SPE IDE can you do gui too?
[09:07] <Alexio> couldn't find matching package "ubuntu-desktop"
[09:07] <Alexio> is what it says
[09:07] <ahaskins> jrib: Yeah, it did for awhile. Beryl might have messed with it.
[09:07] <psusi> riaal: it looks like your linux install should be ok... so what do you want to do now?  get rid of the broken windows partitions?
[09:07] <riaal> psusi, thing is, I had windows installed on partion 1 (~80gb) removed it and formated the drive to ext3 but kept my ntfs partion 2 (~200gb) to sort the files later.. now partion 2 is empty and I want to format it to ext3 but everything shows as one disk =/
[09:07] <albert> Alexio: i think it's gnome-desktop
[09:07] <mc44> Alexio: try sudo apt-get update
[09:08] <Alexio> it finds nothing
[09:08] <tondar> Pici: by the way what do I need in order to start?
[09:08] <ducktape> Goddammit!! (So I'm new to Ubuntu) I'm thinking let's help out the community and write a tutorial on Gimp; I've done that in html and now I want to upload that to my server using an FTP program (I'm using GFTP): First of all uploading a folder doesn't seem to work; second permission denied (grrrr)
[09:08] <albert> sudo aptitude install gnome-desktop
[09:08] <jrib> ahaskins: ah yeah, that's a very good theory.  Try disabling beryl and see if that's the cause?
[09:08] <mc44> albert: no, ubuntu-desktop is right
[09:08] <Alexio> I'll try
[09:08] <erUSUL> DeafByBeheading: edit /etc/network/interfaces (man interfaces for info on how to do it)
[09:08] <albert> ok
[09:08] <Alexio> nope, didn't find it
[09:08] <Alexio> why am I not connecting?
[09:08] <MrC_> is there any ubuntu programer in here?
[09:08] <craigbass1976> Oh, now I've got it, but I had to go into usr/sbin to start apache2ctl.
[09:08] <mc44> Alexio: what happens when you sudo apt-get update?
[09:08] <mosibfu> @genii: stupid me did that in /   i have 450 gb total...
[09:08] <Alexio> AH THANK YOU
[09:09] <Alexio> it's downloading LOADs of stuff
[09:09] <MrC_> or someone the development team
[09:09] <Alexio> finally some progress
[09:09] <wxq2378> ducktape: nautilus (file managers) should be able to do FTP too, if you want to try a different client
[09:09] <psusi> riaal: then remove all of those screwed up partitions and then create a new one in the free space
[09:09] <riaal> psusi,  yeh, check this out: http://www.soundaddict.se/fdisk.jpg
[09:09] <ducktape> I just want to help out :p
[09:09] <Alexio> but now I need the desktop installed
[09:09] <Alexio> so I try again?
[09:09] <mc44> yes
[09:09] <genii> mosibfu: I'm thinking something like ls -lRSh /<somedir>     that will sort by size
[09:09] <ahaskins> jrib: Yeah, that did it... is there any way to let them work simultaneously?
[09:09] <Alexio> yes it's working
[09:09] <Alexio> ah, no, it didn't work
[09:09] <Alexio> it updated the tree
[09:09] <Alexio> which took some time
[09:09] <Alexio> then said couldn't find package
[09:10] <jrib> !enter | Alexio
[09:10] <ubotu> Alexio: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[09:10] <tondar> Pici: u there? can I do gui with spe?
[09:10] <ducktape> oh wait it did work: the premiere of my tutorial: http://rynwalt.be/gimp/
[09:10] <mosibfu> @genii ill run it from / anyway, i have no other partitions for linux and thats the only partition in sys that misses dating
[09:10] <riaal> psusi, thats exactly what I want to do..
[09:10] <Alexio> ok gnome-desktop didn't work, but ubuntu-desktop does
[09:10] <DeafByBeheading> erUSUL: Thanks, but man interfaces is a little over my head (and I'm not a complete n00b). Are there any, uh, man interfaces walkthroughs?
[09:10] <jrib> ahaskins: see if change the video output to x11 helps.  Try asking in #ubuntu-effects too, someone there may know more about this issue
[09:10] <mc44> Alexio: like I said... :P
[09:10] <starGaming> any clue how to remove Int 14 error while installing on an amd64 using i386 install?
[09:10] <tondar> Pici: and where do I get started, what do I need to program in python? only SPE is enough?
[09:10] <Alexio> it's working now, thank you :)
[09:10] <genii> mosibfu: Be prepared to go have a snooze! ROFL
[09:11] <psusi> riaal: oh wait
[09:11] <psusi> riaal: sorry, I'm an idiot, there's nothing wrong with that layout
[09:11] <Bagoor> No body knows a screen capture application ?
[09:11] <dyrne> Bagoor: screenshot or screencast (movie)?
[09:11] <ahaskins> jrib: I'd already tried changing the video output to X11, but thanks for the advice about #ubuntu-effecs, I'll see what I can do. Thanks for your help! =)
[09:11] <wxq2378> Bagoor: for a single image? just press the print screen button
[09:11] <psusi> riaal: you have an extended partition in slot 2 which contains your swap and ntfs partitions, they do not overlap
[09:11] <outlet> My PC ignores the Dualcore, i cant boot with the "generic"kernel any ideas?
[09:11] <marek_> no
[09:11] <Alexio> so all I needed to do was the update command before I could install anything with aptitude
[09:11] <riaal> psusi, well, how do I get rid of it then? all aplications show the hole thing whit the linux install as one drive
[09:12] <Bagoor> dyrne, screencast
[09:12] <psusi> riaal: I'm not sure why gparted is being stupid, but fdisk says it's fine
[09:12] <genii> outlet: use as kernel optio    notsc   with generic kernel (it is smp)
[09:12] <craigbass1976> Hey, anyone an apache guru here?  Problem solved.  I mv /etc/init.d/apache2 /etc/init.d/apache2.bak, then ln -s /usr/sbin/apache2ctl /etc/init.d/apache2 and now I'm all set.  But why didn't this work out of the box, or right after the initial apache2 install?
[09:12] <outlet> what pls? ^^ sorry, complete ubuntu noob
[09:12] <riaal> psusi, can I use fisk to remove the partion? I ran partion magic frome a windows computer on it and it screamed overlap
[09:13] <psusi> riaal: err, wait a second... maybe it isn't fine.... sda3 SHOULD be sda5 and sda5 should be sda6...
[09:13] <mosibfu> @genii i have amd 4400+ dual core, love the way linux is made, doesnt even lagg a bit now ;)
[09:13] <psusi> riaal: yes, use fdisk to delete sda5 and sda2, then you may be able to mount sda3 and get the data off it
[09:13] <genii> mosibfu: My next box will be some dual-core thing. I'm looking at a dual cpu mb which would wourk out to quad core
[09:14] <dyrne> Bagoor: ive heard good things about istanbul but never used it i normally do something like: http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=07/03/09/2013236
[09:14] <aergn> my screen resolution sucks and i can't figure how to install the nvidia driver
[09:14] <erUSUL> DeafByBeheading: you can search in google for example "stanzas" for how to configure an interface for example a simple wired iface with ip by dhcp is a two lines "auto eth0 <newline> iface eth0 inet dhcp"
[09:14] <riaal> psusi, what data? only care about the data on the ext3 partion
[09:14] <aergn> is there anyone who can help me with that?
[09:14] <mosibfu> @genii i would say go for amd, on intel the cores communicate over fsb taking bandwith ;)
[09:14] <XiXaQ> xgermx, do you know if this is the same as using network-manager to deactivate a connection?
[09:14] <aergn> please? :s
[09:14] <Bagoor> dyrne, ok, thx
[09:14] <psusi> riaal: ohh, well if you don't want the data on the ntfs partition then blow that away too
[09:14] <javb> people, o need a web page designer to be used under Ubuntu, like Frontpage or DreamWeaver.. (something opensource..) any ideas.. ? Not Bluefish please.
[09:14] <genii> outlet Did you download the regular or alternate installcd?
[09:14] <DeafByBeheading> erUSUL: alright, I'll give it another stab. thanks.
[09:14] <xgermx> XiXaQ>	sorry, not sure
[09:14] <clar1> has anyone got kitchensync to work with bluetooth
[09:15] <aergn> maybe a website where I can get more help?
[09:15] <premier> !nvidia > aergn
[09:15] <mosibfu> @javb install wine, use dreamweaver ;)
[09:15] <javb> hehe, thanks.
[09:15] <riaal> psusi, so remove sda2 and sda3?
[09:15] <erUSUL> DeafByBeheading: look here the section "Adding to interfaces" https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WiFiHowTo
[09:15] <psusi> riaal: and 5
[09:15] <javb> mosibfu, there no option? :p
[09:15] <genii> mosibfu: I'm still researching :) I like to get a bleeding edge box every 5 yrs then run it to the ground LOL
[09:15] <riaal> psusi, thats a swap?
[09:15] <aergn> thanx premier!
[09:16] <mosibfu> @javb ive been looking at some web designing stuff aswell, none work as nice as the ones im used to
[09:16] <psusi> riaal: it's inside the extended partition sda2, so you have to remove it in order to remove sda2
[09:16] <wxq2378> is it realy that any of the 1300 people here has absolutely no clue about the automount feature of ubuntu? 'cause i asked a few times for help now, always beeing ignored. automatic mount (usb disk) does not work anymore after a suspend and resume. i'd like to reactivate/fix that feature. i bet there is a script or deamon i can kick off.. i just don't know which
[09:16] <CheshireViking> javb, have you looked at nvu from synaptic
[09:16] <mosibfu> @genii i bought 4400+ run it 5200+ its kinda nice :P
[09:16] <riaal> psusi, is this safe for my linux install or do I need to start backup first?
[09:16] <javb> CheshireViking, nvu is not available at 7.04
[09:16] <mosibfu> @genii lol its done
[09:17] <genii> outlet When the cdrom begins to boot (on the alternate install cdrom) you can hit f6 key then add onto the end of the line it will use for loading the kernel.
[09:17] <DeafByBeheading> erUSUL: awesome. i think that's just what I was looking for.
[09:17] <javb> i checked it out, very very bad. :S
[09:17] <CheshireViking> javb, rite, i didn't know that
[09:17] <psusi> riaal: safe
[09:17] <erUSUL> DeafByBeheading: no problem
[09:17] <riaal> psusi, cheers =)
[09:17] <aro> wxq2378, most of the 1300 people in here are AFK
[09:18] <aro> wxq2378, are you comfortable with editing text files to fix your problem
[09:18] <Willbert> if people dont answer they dont know the answer... check forums/online documentation
[09:18] <aro> wxq2378, because you can add something to /etc/fstab for automount
[09:18] <zaggynl> What's the fastes way to copy a whole drive to another
[09:18] <zaggynl> *fastest
[09:18] <wxq2378> aro: probably, but i asked on different days and times, and you're the first one that answers :-)
[09:19] <genii> mosibfu: Did you find what was chewing up space?
[09:19] <sileni> hello, does anyone in here knowledgable with dual booting?
[09:19] <dyrne> zaggynl: dd? cat?
[09:19] <aro> wxq2378, this is just an example of a line from my /etc/fstab that you can use to help you
[09:19] <mosibfu> @genii well.. my terminal has less lines then i have files, fixing that now :P
[09:19] <aro> wxq2378, /dev/sdb1 /media/external2 ntfs-3g defaults,rw,auto,locale=en_US.UTF-8 0 1
[09:19] <psusi> zaggynl: cp -a /foo /bar
[09:19] <erUSUL> wxq2378: hald ? but it could be a bug in the usb kernel subsystem... try udevmonitor to see if the device creation/recognition is delivered to userspace also check the los to see if the usb stick is actually recogniced
[09:19] <riaal> psusi, have any sugestion on how the command might look? =S
[09:19] <zaggynl> psusi, heh okay
[09:19] <psusi> riaal: what command?
[09:19] <wxq2378> aro: it works fine after a reboot, but the automount somehow gets corrupted after suspend/resume. a reboot fixes it temporarily.
[09:20] <aro> wxq2378, oh, you're having suspend problems, sorry I don't know about that
[09:20] <genii> mosibfu: You could always just pipe the ls results to a file then look with some editor
[09:20] <aro> wxq2378, I've never been a big fan of using that so I don't know :(
[09:20] <riaal> psusi, for removing the partions?
[09:20] <psusi> riaal: fdisk /dev/sda
[09:20] <sileni> i need advise on dual booting with 40 gb hd windows xp already installed
[09:20] <wxq2378> erUSUL: ok i'll try udevmonitor, dont know that one yet. the stick is recognized, i see the usual messages in dmesg. i also used /etc/init.d/dbus restart (which seems to reload hal too), which did not help
[09:20] <CheshireViking> javb, just done a search on the web, looks like nvu has been replaced https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kompozer
[09:21] <riaal> psusi, forgot about that, thanks again

[09:22] <deCon> can someone in here help me get wifi recognized in xubuntu?!
[09:22] <ompaul> deCon, go to #xubuntu they would be better
[09:22] <defcon> I Have a BIG problem, I installed kubuntu-desktop with apt-get and some other files, and it removed most of my system menu somehow, how do I restore the menu's and things back to when I installed ubuntu
[09:23] <deCon> ompaul, did, they are useless right now
[09:23] <defcon> desktop effects is gone and a bunch of other things
[09:23] <defcon> dissapeared
[09:23] <javb> CheshireViking, thanks, let me check, anyway, its weird  there is no a real deal with HTML designers
[09:23] <wxq2378> erUSUL: seems like the events are there: "UEVENT[1179343324.009975]  add      /block/sdb/sdb1 (block)" and "UDEV  [1179343324.065325]  add      /block/sdb/sdb1 (block)" but no drives appear in /media
[09:23] <defcon> what should I do :(
[09:23] <sss> 
[09:24] <ompaul> defcon, so you had berl installed guess you need to talk with #ubuntu-effects
[09:24] <craigbass1976> How do I totally nuke application installs, like apache.  apt-get remove doesnt get rid of everything
[09:24] <defcon> berl ?
[09:24] <defcon> ompaul, berl?
[09:24] <dyrne> craigbass1976: use --purge as well
[09:24] <erUSUL> wxq2378: do not know then :(
[09:24] <ompaul> beryl
[09:24] <defcon> what is that
[09:24] <craigbass1976> dyrne, apt-get remove --purge?
[09:24] <riaal> psusi, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21174/ write changes?
[09:24] <mosibfu> @genii thats a damn good idea, i was just scrolling in terminal (after making it allow 36000 lines
[09:24] <dyrne> craigbass1976: i believe so
[09:24] <wxq2378> erUSUL: thanks for trying :-) at least i know a useful tool more
[09:25] <outlet> Problem: While booting with generic kernel it takes about 3 minutes without respond, after pulling out the plug and starting in recoverymode the last line says: Waiting for Root - about a long time. I have no Idea...
[09:25] <psusi> riaal: yep
[09:26] <ompaul> defcon, you said effects howevert this may help - no promises >>>sudo dpkg-reconfigure #ubuntu-desktop <<<
[09:26] <genii> pulling plug = always a Bad Idea
[09:26] <riaal> psusi, ehm, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21175/
[09:26] <outlet> genii: i know, but nothing else works...
[09:27] <stefg> outlet: you need to boot with an UUID- root instead of a /dev/* root. check your /boot/grub/menu.lst  and possibly sudo dpkg-reconfigure linux-image-`uname -r`
[09:27] <riaal> psusi, rebot? (scared) =)
[09:27] <mosibfu> @genii cant find it anywhere, ill try later.. dont have a clue where it is atm
[09:27] <psusi> riaal: yep... it can't update it cause the disk is being used... you have to reboot for the changes to take effect
[09:27] <genii> outlet: Did you do the boot from alternate install cd then hit f6 and put at the end of the line    notsc  ?
[09:27] <defcon> defcon@ion:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure ubuntu-desktop
[09:27] <defcon> /usr/sbin/dpkg-reconfigure: ubuntu-desktop is not installed

[09:27] <riaal> psusi, wish my luck! :D thanks again
[09:28] <genii> outlet: This is sometimes a kernel switch/option that is needed for dual-core cpu installation
[09:28] <ompaul> defcon, so you installed kde - and now you do that .. what did you have installed in the first place
[09:28] <cesar10> alguem do brasil ?
[09:28] <soso> multicast bei ubuntu wegen upnp ????
[09:28] <defcon> ompaul, I had ubuntu, and installed kde and kubuntu desktop
[09:29] <defcon> ompaul, can I pop in my live cd and repair it?
[09:29] <ompaul> defcon, ehh do this, sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and sit back for a while
[09:29] <defcon> ok
[09:29] <outlet> genii & stefg: im now on with the 386kernel, the notsc command is not known by grub
[09:30] <fiber> hello, i'm having an odd problem for when my laptop (amd64, feisty) goes into screensaver/lock mode.  basically it looks like the color depth has gone down! i can post a screenshot if necissary, has anyone run into this before?
[09:30] <outlet> Would it make sense if i use that reconfigure command with the "generic kernel" instead of using the actual ?
[09:31] <ikonia> outlet: you don't configure the kernel
[09:31] <_Rubyxx> when I use my live CD, I have no internet connection. Is there a workaround?
[09:31] <defcon> ompaul, how do I change how ubuntu looks
[09:31] <defcon> its finished
[09:31] <ikonia> defcon: change the theme
[09:31] <ikonia> _Rubyxx: depends why you have no internet connection
[09:31] <genii> outlet The notsc option is not for grub, it is to put after the line which loads the linux. From the regular install cd you cannot put this. From the alternate install cdrom, when it comes to a main screen you put F6 key then go to the end of the line which it takes to load linux (not grub) then add the word  notsc   then hit enter
[09:31] <riaal> psusi, looks like it works!
[09:31] <mosibfu> @genii i found it.. do not empty users trash with roots trash, it will only move it around lol
[09:32] <defcon> ok
[09:32] <defcon> for some reason my minimize maximize doesnt work right
[09:32] <riaal> psusi, Do I need to restor the swap somehow?
[09:32] <defcon> the bottons stick
[09:32] <genii> mosibfu: Hah :) Well, good thing you tracked it down anyhow
[09:32] <psusi> riaal: wouldn't be a bad idea
[09:32] <outlet> genii: Where to find the alternate boot cd?
[09:32] <_Rubyxx> ikonia: Well I do have an internet connection as u can see :)....The live CD does not pick it up
[09:32] <riaal> psusi, easyest way?
[09:32] <mosibfu> @genii took me some time to realize what it could be, then i remembered :P
[09:33] <ikonia> _Rubyxx: but why - does it not get a dhcp address, can the network card not be seen etc etc
[09:33] <riaal> psusi, *easiest way
[09:33] <mosibfu> @genii i had formatted my other 2 discs (total 200 gb) and saved the stuff on my desktop, that was in my roots trash...
[09:34] <defcon> my minimize/maximize doesnt work right it sticks when I click on the bottons
[09:34] <defcon> and dont let me
[09:34] <riaal> how big does a swap drive need to be?
[09:34] <defcon> any ideas
[09:34] <_Rubyxx> I had been trying to figure that out for over a month....bcos it seemed to be an isolated case that only this cd wasn't working, maybe I shd try another download
[09:34] <psusi> riaal: use fdisk to create a new partition for it, mkswap on that partition, then fix your /etc/fstab to refer to the new partition
[09:35] <riaal> psusi, thanks, how big? 1gb?
[09:35] <mosibfu> @riaal: well about 3 gb minus the amount of ram u have
[09:35] <_Rubyxx> ikonia: I had been trying to figure that out for over a month....bcos it seemed to be an isolated case that only this cd wasn't working, maybe I shd try another download
[09:35] <genii> outlet: One moment, I am trying to find it
[09:35] <riaal> mosibfu, 0 then ;)
[09:35] <psusi> riaal: up to you really... I usually try to make it at least as large as total ram so I can use suspend to disk
[09:35] <ikonia> _Rubyxx: have you checked to see if it can see your network card ?
[09:35] <mosibfu> @riaal in that case i'd stick to 1 at least, maybe 2.. ;)
[09:35] <DeafByBeheading> erUSUL: awesome, i am on t3h int4w3bs now (that is, on the server, obviously--i'm typing this from my laptop).
[09:36] <riaal> mosibfu, psusi thanks!
[09:36] <dyrne> riaal: i dont worry about suspend and have 256mb swap on a newer comp. it hardly touches it anyway
[09:36] <teer2> someone just told me that AMD64 chips run 32-bit code already without emulation.
[09:36] <ikonia> yes
[09:36] <ikonia> thats right
[09:36] <PriceChild> teer2, yes
[09:36] <genii> outlet just go to http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download    then check off the box at bottom that says you want the alternate cd before picking a mirror
[09:36] <compengi> gnomefreak, after i eject my flash drive and unplug it, the icon in the places left tab in nautilus is still visible and after i plug the flash it's not auto-mounted, i need to mount it manually and when i check it's properties it would give me the same ones of my flash. any idea?
[09:36] <_Rubyxx> ikonia: My network card from within Ubuntu Live?
[09:36] <outlet> Thx
[09:37] <teer2> hmm - any idea where I can find more information on using AMD64 for 32-bit apps?
[09:37] <ikonia> _Rubyxx: yes
[09:37] <DeafByBeheading> now, can anyone point me to getting samba working? i need to copy files from a windows machine to this new server.
[09:37] <ikonia> teer2: what do you want to know
[09:37] <Phab> test
[09:37] <ikonia> teer2: the amd64 chips will run 32bit, however they will only run 32bit apps IF the operating system supports 32bit
[09:37] <wxq2378> teer2: there is not much special about it. teh AMD64 is reverse compatible to 32bits app.
[09:37] <riaal> psusi, stupid question: make swap first? primary or second partion?
[09:37] <teer2> I am very much enjoying the 64-bit support in Ubuntu Feisty, but there are still lots of apps (mostly closed-source) that will not run on my machine
[09:37] <outlet> genii: is it important to take the egdy alternate cd? that isnt choosable
[09:38] <_Rubyxx> ikonia: ok I'll try that, but it means I'll have to logout and come back here later.
[09:38] <mosibfu> @teer2 there is some stuff on google, basically u have a 32bit lin vmachine in 64bit linux as far as i know, i just installed 32bit (im noob so why make it too hard)
[09:38] <ikonia> teer2: right, so your using a 64bit OPERATING SYSTEM, which doesn't support 32bit apps
[09:38] <psusi> riaal: you mean primary or extended?  may as well make it primary since you arne't out of primary partitions yet
[09:38] <teer2> ikonia: oh, of course.  that makes it all clear.  thank you
[09:38] <ikonia> teer2: cool
[09:39] <teer2> THANK YOU everyone who is porting code for the 64-bit version of Ubuntu THANK YOU!!
[09:39] <riaal> psusi, and the rest of the space as ext3 extended?
[09:39] <wxq2378> teer2: well there is a 32 bit support package which allows you to run some 32bit apps on your 64bit feisty. e.g. google earth runs fine that way
[09:40] <genii> outlet Yes, the alternate cd. There is at the bottom of the page where it says:Check here if you need the alternate desktop CD. This CD does not include the Live CD, instead it uses a text-based installer.    this is what you need
[09:40] <psusi> riaal: actually, why not use gparted to just extend your existing partition to use up most of the free space, leaving room to create a swap partition after?
[09:40] <teer2> I just installed Ur'Quan Masters through the Ubuntu repositories -- a remake of Starcon II using the 16-bit code that was made public domain.  I find this hilarious.
[09:40] <Rob_Cam> Hello. I'va been following this how to (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=29029) in order to compile and install Gnuitar on my Ubuntustudio Desktop. I can't execute the last 2 commnads ((sudo ./make, sudo ./make install)), I get the message : "sudo: ./make: command not found". What should i do?
[09:40] <riaal> psusi, sounds great, how? modify the old one?
[09:40] <DrLaunch> Hi! I have a Ubuntu installer suggestion.
[09:41] <teer2> wxq2378: I do not want to use that unless I absolutely have got to do so.  I am so glad Ubuntu doesn't make me.
[09:41] <riaal> psusi, It has a look symbol on it =/
[09:41] <riaal> psusi, lock *lol*
[09:41] <Scognito> hi
[09:41] <arbrown> Rob_cam: install build-essential (sudo aptitude install build-essential)
[09:41] <mirf> gnome has kinda frozen on me
[09:41] <Rob_Cam> thanks arbrown
[09:41] <DrLaunch> How about moving the boot loader installation option to the partition editor?
[09:41] <Scognito> i'm using latest ubuntu with an nvidia ti4200, glxgears works fine with root, but not from user.... any hint?
[09:41] <Generation> hey guys was wondering how to get my wireless card to work in feisty, its a desktop linksys
[09:42] <bziobnic> how can I download a package from a repository without installing it?
[09:42] <dyrne> DrLaunch: enhancement requests must be filled out in triplicate and then snail mailed to respective developers
[09:42] <outlet> genii, but i have installed 6.10, should i update first? there is no alternatecd for that version
[09:42] <wxq2378> teer2: i'm seeing of the "ia32-libs" package, check that out if you need to run proprietary apps
[09:42] <DrLaunch> dyrne: lol
[09:42] <mosibfu> scognito: have u enabled the restricted drivers in the user?
[09:42] <mirf> nautilus crashed then suddenly I can't click any gnome panels and when I killed nautilus it's sill on running programs bar
[09:42] <Scognito> mosibfu, yes i did
[09:42] <nickrud> bziobnic, go thru packages.ubuntu.com, there are links at the bottom for getting individual debs
[09:42] <genii> outlet One moment I will look for a 6.10 alternate cd. I know there is one but it seems no direct links now provided
[09:42] <Generation> nyone know about wireless cards with feisty
[09:43] <psusi> riaal: huh?
[09:43] <teer2> wxq2378: isn't ia32-libs just emulation?
[09:43] <Rob_Cam> arbrown, I did what u told me, but I still get the "sudo: ./make: command not found" message
[09:43] <psusi> ia32-libs are the 32 bit libraries repackaged to install on 64 bit
[09:43] <bziobnic> I have a machine that needs kernel headers package to compile the network driver. how can I get the package without an internet connection?
[09:43] <javb> the page about NVU and Komposer AGAIN ? please?
[09:44] <Generation> wireless less cards in Feisty, anyone ?
[09:44] <bziobnic> nickrud: thanks
[09:44] <mosibfu> Scognito: weird bug :S never had such a thing.. do the "desktop effects" work (just to test some other 3d stuff that needs it)
[09:44] <wxq2378> teer2: it provides some common 32bit libraries which are used to link 32bits against to. the CPU already runs 32bit code w/o modification
[09:44] <arbrown> Rob_Cam: what about just issuing 'make' instead of './make'?
[09:44] <riaal> psusi, gparted shows a lock on that drive and I can't change it =/
[09:44] <KakaRoT-|> bziobnic: downloading the package from a machine with a connection?
[09:44] <bziobnic> yes
[09:45] <johnnybuoy> !info cinelerra
[09:45] <Rob_Cam> that worked allright arbrown! thanks a lot!
[09:45] <ubotu> Package cinelerra does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas

[09:45] <psusi> riaal: hrm... you are running from the livecd right?
[09:45] <riaal> psusi, well, forget out it..=) shall I make the last space as primary to?
[09:45] <riaal> psusi, no? :D
[09:46] <psusi> riaal: that's why... can't resize the disk while you are using it ;)
[09:46] <riaal> psusi, buu! that sucks ;)
[09:46] <Stormx2> Is there an easy way to list packages not installed from the repos?
[09:46] <psusi> riaal: boot from the livecd and extend the partition leaving space for some swap at the end
[09:46] <arbrown> Rob_Cam: glad to help. I'd suggest dropping the './' from make install as well. Additionally, the 'checkinstall' package may be somthing worth looking into. Instead of doing a 'make install' you use 'checkinstall' and a debian package of the program will be created for you allow integration into the package  manager.
[09:46] <goalll> hi i'm not english. exist a chan italian?

[09:47] <nil2> When I try to play a quicktime iPod ad on apple.com, it begins to play with the totem/gstreamer/thingy plugin thing for firefox, but then it switches after a second to "Download QuickTime to view the video." Ideas?
[09:47] <Stormx2> wxq2378: Which section?
[09:48] <mosibfu> goall, do: /join #ubuntu-it ;)
[09:48] <DrLaunch> Any ideas about how to install GRUB on an external hard drive?
[09:48] <Scognito> sorry my system crashed
[09:48] <mosibfu> Scognito: welcome back
[09:48] <Scognito> i read until i sayd "yes i have the restricted drivers enabled"

[09:48] <goalll> mosibfu thanks!!!
[09:48] <stefg> DrLaunch: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[09:48] <wxq2378> Stormx2: the left sidebar has buttons. there you can set to show packages by state and choose to show only installed, upgardable or uninstalled packages
[09:48] <juice`> what are other good movie players than standard totem ?
[09:49] <preaction> juice`: VLC
[09:49] <Scognito> i'm not a newbe but when coming with nvidia i'm somewhat one
[09:49] <riaal> psusi, live cd's scares me but okey, thanks
[09:49] <juice`> downloading it right now
[09:49] <KakaRoT-> juice`: mplayer
[09:49] <juice`> ok
[09:49] <Stormx2> wxq2378: How does that help?
[09:49] <wxq2378> juice`: i can recomend vlc too, see also xine/gxine
[09:49] <DrLaunch> stefg: Thank you.
[09:49] <mosibfu> scognito: maybe try the desktop effects (on cube stuff) that uses openGL if that doesnt work user driver is wrong
[09:49] <mosibfu> scognito: i had non problem at all (2x 7600GT on SLI)
[09:49] <Scognito> it's all super slow with
[09:49] <Stormx2> wxq2378: Hmm. 'local or obsolute' ?
[09:50] <Scognito> mosibfu, the strange thing is i installed feisty 2 times in a day
[09:50] <desvee> tryed the help for sound in ubuntu with hda-intel, but nothing
[09:50] <KLH> Hi, I've gotten UT GOTY to install correctly on Ubuntu 7.04, but there is severe mouse lag and the game chugs. The hardware is kind of old, but it should be able to run the game fine: P4, 384 MB ram, Nvidia Vanta JC9781. Any suggestions?
[09:50] <Scognito> first time it worked like a charm
[09:50] <Scognito> second time (this one) no
[09:50] <genii> outlet Oddly ubuntu main site now carries Dapper or Feisty alternates. But here is a link that has the 6.10 alternate cd   http://mirrors.xmission.com/ubuntu-cd/6.10/ubuntu-6.10-alternate-i386.iso
[09:50] <wxq2378> Stormx2: old packages no longer in the repositories or debs that you downloaded elsewhere are listed there
[09:50] <mosibfu> Scognito: did it download the driver the second time aswell?
[09:50] <Scognito> i just changed the motheboard and reinstalled (cause windows)
[09:51] <Scognito> i formatted the hd so the istallation was from scratch again
[09:51] <wxq2378> KLH maybe you need the other nvidia driver for propper 3d acceleration?
[09:51] <Scognito> it's strange
[09:51] <Scognito> because i think is something related to some permission
[09:52] <KLH> You mean legacy drivers? I tried installing those through synaptic
[09:52] <Scognito> since on root everything works as it should
[09:52] <Scognito> (the user is in the video group also)
[09:52] <mosibfu> Scognito with my nvidia driver i had max 1024 untill i edited xorg.conf, if u are running higher u might want to install another driver (from nvidia site)
[09:52] <mosibfu> so u have most recent for the chip on your card (have no 4 fx to test it)
[09:53] <Scognito> mosibfu, from root i run flawlessy at 1280x1024
[09:53] <outlet> genii: thanks
[09:53] <wxq2378> KLH: there is nvidia-glx-new and nvidia-glx you have to find yout which one is better for your card. and then you have to check your xorg.conf that the drivers are actally used
[09:53] <ion> my minimize/maximize doesnt work right it sticks when I click on the bottons
[09:53] <Scognito> i mean, from root everything works fine
[09:53] <ion> buttons*
[09:53] <nil2> Is http://www.apple.com/itunes/ads/medium.html working for anyone with Feisty (who's not using some non-standard media player)?
[09:53] <desvee> need help with sound on an Acer Aspire 5050
[09:53] <genii> outlet Keep us posted on results
[09:53] <mosibfu> wxq has a point, can u copy the info of the driver (just the caption or something with names) so i can check for a sec?
[09:54] <khin> generally speaking, if im a desktop user should i upgrade to feistry from dapper
[09:54] <mosibfu> its found in xorg.conf
[09:54] <wxq2378> KLH: that is the driver in xorg.conf should be named "nvidia" (not "nv")
[09:54] <Ireclan> I need  help. My installation of the win32 media plugins is not working...
[09:54] <sebastianffx> somebady can help me??? i dont know how to give more space for ubuntu of a windows particion(Sorry, my english is not the best ^_^), but i try with Gparted and it don worksit dont let me to unmount and rezise particions :(
[09:54] <outlet> first result, 1 and 1/2 half hours of downloading ^^
[09:54] <Niklas_E> is there any script in ubuntu that cleans up the mythtv recording lists if you have moved the file?
[09:55] <Nubbie> niklas_E: like the database?
[09:55] <mosibfu> sebastianffx: you could try "partition magic" under windows, then reinstall ubuntu, has less chance to corrupt
[09:55] <Nubbie> sebastianffx: gparted also has a live cd.
[09:56] <sebastianffx> but, there is not a way to do it without rreinstalling ubuntu??
[09:56] <wxq2378> sebastianffx: you cant resize the partitions that are mounted. but booting the livecd and then resizing might help
[09:56] <Niklas_E> yep, the database
[09:56] <sebastianffx> ok ill tri
[09:56] <sebastianffx> thanx
[09:56] <mosibfu> sebastianffx: then i suggest partition magic from under windows, that always worked for me
[09:56] <Nubbie> Niklas_E: use that mysqladmin gui program to backup the database
[09:57] <outlet> Next one: still trying to get my DvBstick run, already compiled drivers, but seems to be the wrong one, is somewhere a driverbase or something like that?
[09:57] <juice`> my xvid movies are pixalized, any idea why? the same movies works fine on windows
[09:57] <kdub432> juice`, did you install the xvid codecs from source?

[09:57] <wepeel> Hi all. Does ubuntu come with a way to convert djvu to pdf?
[09:58] <juice`> kdub432: no
[09:58] <craigbass1976> ok, apt-get --purge blah is not getting rid of all of blah.  In regards to apache, I still have /etc/init.d/apache, and /usr/sbin/apachectl.  I've no idea what else there is kicking around, but I thought there was a way to COMPLETELY remove something with apt-get.
[09:58] <juice`> kdub432: from apt-get
[09:58] <Sergo> hello, why Evince can't proccess .djvu? This slow my pc very highlu
[09:58] <Niklas_E> thanks
[09:58] <Sergo> with .pdf tnere are no problems
[09:58] <kdub432> juice`, you may want to try building from source if the package doesnt work
[09:58] <Kaur> when I press the power button of my laptop it doesn't react as it should. It does nothing actually. I think the problem is somehow related to acpid start time because when i uninstall acpid and then reinstall it everything is fine. Till I reboot..
[09:58] <Kaur> Ideas?
[09:58] <wepeel> Sergo: are you able to convert djvu to pdf?
[09:59] <eternal_p> does anyone know of a PCL to PS converter (print driver) so I can convert PCL command print doucmnets to pdf?
[09:59] <sileni> who was the person that gave me the website to dual boot like 20 mins ago
[09:59] <Sergo> wepeel: i don't know how to do this
[10:00] <Sergo> ok
[10:00] <Nubbie> sileni: are you trying to install ubuntu beside XP?
[10:00] <nexusSTONE> hi
[10:00] <sileni> Nubbie: es
[10:00] <sileni> yes
[10:00] <sileni> i already have xp installed now i want to install ubuntu
[10:00] <Nubbie> sileni: all you need to do is defragment the xp drive, run the ubuntu live cd installation, resize the XP drive so there is free space trailing it, then create your new partitions in the free space.
[10:01] <sileni> i already defragmented according to teh guide but i closed it now i cant find the guide
[10:01] <sileni> yes
[10:01] <sileni> parition
[10:01] <sileni> what do i name them
[10:01] <Nubbie> sileni: then run the ubuntu installation, manually edit partitions
[10:01] <sileni> Nubbie: ya what should i name the partitions?
[10:01] <sileni> Nubbie: i remember it was something swap and something else
[10:02] <nexusSTONE> hi I've gotta a puzzling problem with ubuntu and wonder if anyone can help. Concerning root acct and the one created at installation.
[10:02] <Nubbie> sileni: and edit the XP partition so there is free space trailing it. in the free space, you need 3 partitions, /, /home, and swap. you can choose where to mount your XP partition, but it usually mounts fine itself.
[10:02] <sileni> ok how much space do i give /
[10:02] <Nubbie> nexusSTONE: you don't need a root user, that is why sudo exists.
[10:02] <sileni> and /home and swap
[10:02] <Nubbie> sileni: well how much free space do you have?
[10:02] <wepeel> Sergo: djview will convert to pdf and allow you to view djvu without using evince
[10:03] <sileni> Nubbie: one second
[10:03] <ryancr> simple question, how does one install a cgwdtheme on the current compiz/feisty setup
[10:03] <DrLaunch> Seems like that grub page I got referred to only has information useful for those who already have GRUB installed. But it's OK for me to reinstall Ubuntu.
[10:03] <nexusSTONE> yes Nubbie, indeed. I only discovered that after entering "sudo passwd root".
[10:03] <sileni> Nubbie: i have a 40 gb hd
[10:03] <sileni> is that too small ?
[10:03] <Nubbie> sileni: / should be around 5gb, swap should be anywhere between the size of your memory and 1Gb, depending on what you do. /home should occupy all remaining space, as it's where you personal files are stored.
[10:04] <Nubbie> sileni: it depends also how much free space you want to leave for windows XP, which you should also take into consideration.
[10:04] <sileni> so i jsut name the partitions /, /home, swap ?
[10:04] <genii> nexusSTONE: The default user with uid 1000 gid 1000 has special admin priveleges which let it use sudo and do root tasks when needed
[10:04] <Sergo> weppel: thanks!
[10:04] <sileni> i dont do much with windows
[10:04] <Nubbie> sileni: no, you choose the mount point from a drop down list.
[10:04] <Nubbie> sileni: you don't actually "name" them.
[10:04] <sileni> oh
[10:05] <DrLaunch> I want to select the correct partition for GRUB. I found out that my root partition is on sdb1. Should I select (sdb1) as boot loader drive then?
[10:05] <sileni> Nubbie: i really appreciate you helping me let me boot from live cd and talk to you from there ok ?
[10:05] <JammasterJay> Using Dapper, can someone reccomend a 'search tool' so i can find various files and programs which i install?
[10:05] <ph1zzle> hey all
[10:05] <mosibfu> DrLaunch: the boot loader shuld be on the first partion of the first drive that boots
[10:05] <Nubbie> sileni: sure, just call me out.
[10:06] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: beagle
[10:06] <JammasterJay> thx
[10:06] <genii> DrLaunch Do you have only the 1 drive in your system?
[10:06] <nexusSTONE> indeed genii, I believe that's where my problem started... my uid1000 seems not able to create any directory in /home. That's why I enabled root.
[10:06] <wxq2378> JammasterJay: there is "find" and "locate". you can also get a list of installed files from deb packages if you're speaking of that
[10:06] <DrLaunch> genii: I have an external harddrive.
[10:06] <genii> nexusSTONE: You by default can only create/modify in /home/myusername
[10:06] <Neil-> Hey guys.. I have a friend installing ubuntu as we speak
[10:06] <JammasterJay> find & locate...ok
[10:06] <Neil-> from install cd, how can he get to a console?
[10:07] <wxq2378> Neil-: good
[10:07] <devil_X> vie niekto ako na 5.1 zvuk?pls
[10:07] <wxq2378> Neil-: i thing alt-F2
[10:07] <Lamego> Neil-, CTRL-ALT-F1 (assuming it's booted)
[10:07] <mosibfu> nexusSTONE: you might wanna try: "sudo nautilus" in console, then u have root file browser
[10:07] <Neil-> He has nvidia and it crashes, so we need to swap to vesa then install nvidia drivers
[10:07] <Neil-> Lamego: its trying to boot the install cd
[10:07] <craigbass1976> BAH! I'll just reinstall
[10:07] <mosibfu> nexusSTONE just be careful with it ;
[10:07] <variant> Neil-: press ctrl alt f1 when the cd is booting
[10:07] <Neil-> thanks
[10:08] <woei> could someone with an en_US keyboard layout open up a terminal, run 'xmodmap -pke > ~/xmodmap.current' and DCC me the resultant file ?
[10:08] <variant> Neil-: when the cd has booted i ment to say
[10:08] <VSpike> Can I do a network install with ubuntu with a PC-card adapter?
[10:08] <genii> DrLaunch What I mean is, is the sda drive the only hard drive which you are using for an operating system? If not, and you have some IDE drive for instance which normally boots and is seen as hda   then you would normally want the grub install to be hda  (NOTE, NOT hda1) Please also note that not to install grub to a subpartition eg sda1 sda2 etc) just sda for instance
[10:08] <nexusSTONE> i see, thanks genii & mosibfu.
[10:08] <JammasterJay> Beagle = Already installed, how do i find it? This is kinda a general annoyance....how do i locate files/programs that i have installed with synaptic?
[10:09] <ph1zzle> I installed my system and gave it a the wrong domain name, it's up and running but the ssl certs in /etc/ssl/certs/ssl-cert-snakeoil.pem and /etc/ssl/private/ssl-cert-snakeoil.key have the wrong domain name listed and tell people that when they try to use them (dovecot imap-s), is there a way to recreate them?
[10:09] <variant> VSpike: if your bios supports network booting from pccards.. which i doubt
[10:09] <wxq2378> JammasterJay: select the package you installed and push the "properties" button. there is an installed files tab
[10:09] <johnnybuoy> ph1zzle, that sounds bad..
[10:10] <Molluck> guys.. i've been running this memory test for nearly 2 hours... i think it's safe to say there is not a problem with my ram.
[10:10] <ph1zzle> lol johnnybuoy
[10:10] <ph1zzle> I know it can be done easily but I am not an ssl guru and I just don't know how
[10:10] <Willbert> what was the original problem mollcuk
[10:10] <VSpike> variant: what about initial boot from CD to then do network install?
[10:10] <johnnybuoy> Molluck, 1/4 of a day @ least
[10:10] <VSpike> variant: the installer fails at the point where it tries to mount the the CDROM drive
[10:10] <CotH> Hi, could some one give me some advice please?  I have this error appearing directly after booting: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21181/plain/.  I've just reinstalled and it still is coming up.  WTF?
[10:10] <Nubbie> Molluck: did you check the MD5 hash of the cd?
[10:11] <d2dchat> What do ppl recommend for a GNOME FTP client?
[10:11] <genii> DrLaunch: If the drive it sees as sda is the one it was trying to boot from before you put ubuntu on, then just put for grub sda (NOTE, NOT sda1 or sda2 or so on just sda)
[10:11] <dn4> what do I need to view wmv files?
[10:11] <Nubbie> d2dchat: gftp
[10:11] <VSpike> variant: So it gets through all the questions, just fails at the installing packages stage
[10:11] <wxq2378> d2dchat: use the connect to server from nautilus?
[10:11] <VSpike> variant: I don't think it's a hardware problem, because DSL works fine
[10:11] <Nubbie> d2dchat: also remember that nautilus... yeah..
[10:11] <ph1zzle> d2dchat, gnome has a built in client if you like, I prefer the command line ftp client or wget myself
[10:11] <Molluck> Willbert, ubuntu would freeze up if i attempted to click any buttons on the desktop... this was after i typed in my keyring
[10:11] <johnnybuoy> !medibuntu > dn4
[10:11] <Molluck> Willbert, i think it's not my ram.
[10:11] <barbarella_me> dn4:vlc
[10:12] <johnnybuoy> !medibuntu > johnnybuoy
[10:12] <genii> Durn, he left before I put part 2
[10:12] <Willbert> Molluck: is this after install? or during the live cd?
[10:12] <erstazi> In Ubuntu (GNOME), how does one increase the flash rate of the toolbar window?
[10:12] <johnnybuoy> dn4, privmsg from ubotu
[10:12] <Nubbie> erstazi: you are using metacity?
[10:12] <JammasterJay> wxq2378: so i click on properties, i see the directory where a program is 'installed', like beagle for example: /usr/lib/beagle....so i go there and type 'beagle'?
[10:13] <mosibfu> well im going ;) genii massive thnx mate
[10:13] <erstazi> Nubbie, good point, thank you
[10:13] <genii> mosibu Glad to help :)
[10:13] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: no just go to places > search
[10:13] <CotH> Hi, could some one give me some advice please?  I have this error appearing directly after booting: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21181/plain/.  I've just reinstalled and it still is coming up.  WTF?
[10:13] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: sorry that was incorrect.
[10:13] <DrLaunch> genii: I'm going to boot from the external hard drive using the computers own boot device selection menu.
[10:13] <JammasterJay> I search "beagle" from search..no results
[10:14] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: applications > accessories > search
[10:14] <johnnybuoy> ph1zzle, whats the name of the ssl package?
[10:14] <JammasterJay> Still..."no results found"
[10:14] <DrLaunch> The external harddrive is known as sda (without subpartitions).
[10:14] <ph1zzle> johnnybuoy, I have no idea
[10:14] <teer2> Ubuntu does a great job finding my USB sound blaster NX device when I disconnect and reconnect it.  :)
[10:14] <ph1zzle> it came with the sysem
[10:14] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: no go to applications at the top of the screen...
[10:14] <johnnybuoy> JammasterJay, need to set up beagle
[10:14] <JammasterJay> I did go to applications
[10:15] <wxq2378> JammasterJay: well most programs install many files. the binaries usually to /usr/bin and you can type the command in any path you want. or in the dialog in alt-F2. finding the menu entry might be more tricky. look for a .menu file. the install apps in the applications menu tells you the menu location after installing
[10:15] <johnnybuoy> system > preferences > indexing
[10:15] <johnnybuoy> somthing liket this
[10:15] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: it takes time to index your system.
[10:15] <johnnybuoy> JammasterJay,
[10:15] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: it does not work instantly.
[10:15] <wunky> Is there anyway to use Wine on ubuntu 64 ?
[10:15] <JammasterJay> Should i restart?
[10:15] <khin> hi i am doing some stuff where i am asked to edit something called PKG_CONFIG_PATH, anyone know what this is or how i edit it
[10:15] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: no.
[10:15] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: there is nothing you can do to speed it up. it just takes time.
[10:15] <JammasterJay> (beagle was already installed, i didn't just install it)
[10:15] <jason_> how do i get to the file to tweek my internet connection settings
[10:15] <CotH> Hi, could some one give me some advice please?  I have this error appearing directly after booting: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21181/plain/.  I've just reinstalled and it still is coming up.  WTF?
[10:16] <cptmorgan> is 7.04 still development ?
[10:16] <johnnybuoy> nop
[10:16] <johnnybuoy> CptFuzzy,
[10:16] <johnnybuoy> cptmorgan, ^
[10:16] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: once it's indexed initially, it will index changes as they occur, so it will become nearly instantly updated. give it a few days.
[10:16] <johnnybuoy> ph1zzle, how did U generate the cert?
[10:16] <JammasterJay> wow...a few days to be able to search...um ok
[10:16] <cptmorgan> johnnybuoy thx
[10:16] <sileni> hello
[10:17] <johnnybuoy> JammasterJay, you can spped it up
[10:17] <ph1zzle> johnnybuoy, it's part of the system, it was there when the install was done
[10:17] <sileni> Nubbie: hey are you there
[10:17] <Nubbie> JammasterJay: or you could use the regular search which doesn't do anything with metadata.
[10:17] <Nubbie> sileni: hey.
[10:17] <dabaR> wunky: http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=64+bit+wine+ubuntu
[10:17] <ph1zzle> johnnybuoy, 7.04
[10:17] <JammasterJay> ok...what's the regular search?
[10:17] <sileni> im at the partitioning part of isntalling ubuntu
[10:17] <sileni> *installing
[10:17] <johnnybuoy> JammasterJay, export BEAGLE_EXERCISE_THE_DOG=1
[10:17] <sileni> ntfs
[10:17] <Nubbie> sileni: you chose to manually edit the partitions?
[10:17] <sileni> total size 37.2 gb
[10:17] <JammasterJay> So i should type that in terminal?
[10:17] <DrLaunch> So if I want to install my boot loader on the drive known as sda, I shouldn't install it on a partition (sda1, sda2) but on the sda drive instead? sda is an external usb harddrive on my system.
[10:17] <johnnybuoy> ph1zzle, whats the command
[10:17] <sileni> yes
[10:18] <johnnybuoy> !ssl
[10:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ssl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:18] <sileni> Nubbie:  yes i di
[10:18] <johnnybuoy> JammasterJay, http://beagle-project.org/Indexing_Data
[10:18] <johnnybuoy> type that in the browser^^
[10:18] <scoobydoo28139> how do you get ubuntu channel list?
[10:18] <sileni> Nubbie: shoudlnt i
[10:18] <Nubbie> sileni: okay, so click your XP partition, edit it, and choose to leave free space afterwards (equal to the amount you want to use for the 3 ubuntu partitions)
[10:18] <VSpike> can I run an ubuntu installation from another OS, like DSL?
[10:18] <nexous> How do I change what gnome-menu says? 'Applications Places System'
[10:18] <sileni> ok
[10:18] <dabaR> !irc | scoobydoo28139
[10:18] <ph1zzle> johnnybuoy, when I installed ubuntu
[10:19] <johnnybuoy> oh?
[10:19] <DrLaunch> Oh well. I think I got it now. If not I'll just post on the forums.
[10:19] <ph1zzle> lol
[10:19] <johnnybuoy> ph1zzle, server install?
[10:19] <ph1zzle> yes

[10:19] <defaultro> hi folks, I have a poweredge 1950 with 2 quad cores and 8gigs. Openbsd and Freebsd are failing to see the gig. Will ubuntu support it?
[10:19] <ph1zzle> actually one of the guys in the server room just answered
[10:19] <scoobydoo28139> dabar: tks:)
[10:19] <sileni> Nubbie:  i resized window to 10 gb
[10:19] <Nubbie> defaultro: open and free bsd's work differently than ubuntu.
[10:19] <sileni> Nubbie: now what do i do ?
[10:20] <defaultro> Nubbie, and?
[10:20] <Nubbie> sileni: okay now create the 3 partitions within that free space.
[10:20] <defaultro> so ubuntu should be able to detect my 8gigs?
[10:20] <Nubbie> defaultro: i had a similar problem, freebsd could not detect the sectors of my hard drive, so it failed. but i have never had a problem with ubuntu or linux in generael.
[10:20] <defaultro> ok
[10:20] <dabaR> defaultro: try a desktop cd(live)
[10:21] <dyrne> defaultro: the default install cd is also a livecd so you should be able to tell immediatley
[10:21] <defaultro> ok
[10:21] <defaultro> btw, since I'm very new with ubuntu, where can I download a livecd?
[10:21] <sileni> Nubbie: it comes up to give me alot of optionis, free space preceding, new size, free space following, creat as primary partion ( logical partition, extended), filesystem ext3?
[10:21] <CheshireViking> :)
[10:21] <Molluck> Willbert, after install
[10:21] <johnnybuoy> !server
[10:21] <ubotu> Ubuntu Server Edition is a release of Ubuntu designed especially for server environments, including a server-specific !kernel and no !GUI. The install CD contains many server applications. Current !LTS version is 6.06. For more info see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ServerFaq/ - The #ubuntu-server channel provides specific support
[10:22] <Nubbie> sileni: just choose the size of the drive (its measured in MB)
[10:22] <CotH> wxq2378: Huzah! I'm not invisible!
[10:22] <baghyay> hello i want to install monkey messenger   and i do that in terminal  "" sudo apt-get install mono monodevelop mono-gmcs
[10:22] <sileni> Nubbie: what about primary partiion
[10:22] <Nubbie> sileni: and you want to leave all of the free space following each drive.
[10:22] <yme> need help resolving provblems with x-server,getting a bnunch of errors that prevent me from booting
[10:22] <Nubbie> sileni: you can have 4 partitions before you need to use an extended partition. so you're going to be fine, assuming you only have 1 XP partition.
[10:22] <sileni> ok
[10:22] <sileni> so what do i do now
[10:23] <johnnybuoy> DuckFart, omg what a name
[10:23] <sileni> what do i put in new size ?
[10:23] <Nubbie> yme: it would help if you provided the people here with details of these errors.
[10:23] <lou_> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[10:23] <Nubbie> sileni: the / drive should be at least 5000mb.
[10:23] <DuckFart> hi :)
[10:23] <yme> i was waiting for soemone to shoqw interest, so i could elaborate, instead of spamming, getting errors, brb
[10:23] <Nubbie> sileni: choose the mount point as simply "/" and as an "Ext3" partition.
[10:24] <yme> nubbie, i get a fatale error, caught signal 11, is that it says
[10:24] <baghyay> how install monkey messenger
[10:24] <sileni> Nubbie: : what is the mount point
[10:24] <Nubbie> sileni: "/"
[10:24] <Nubbie> sileni: type is "ext3"
[10:24] <sileni> i dont see that
[10:24] <Nubbie> sileni: no quotation points.
[10:24] <sileni> where
[10:24] <sileni> on file system ?
[10:25] <flapster> yme, Signal 11 usually means it cant find any screens, I always found to be a driver problem, what driver you using?
[10:25] <Ayabara> are amule and frostwire the "recommended" p2p clients on ubuntu?
[10:25] <Nubbie> sileni: no that should be ext3. the mount point should be /
[10:25] <baghyay> wow to install monkey messenger plz
[10:25] <sileni> Nubbie: i dont see the word mount point
[10:25] <Lacrymology> how do I install SDL?
[10:25] <Nubbie> Ayabara: none of them are officially recommended, as they aren't in main repositories.
[10:25] <Lacrymology> apt-get libsdl is not working
[10:26] <yme> flapster, video driver? dunno
[10:26] <dabaR> baghyay: did you get the source code?
[10:26] <yme> it's a clean isntall of ubuntustudio
[10:26] <flapster> yme, umm weird, what graphics card?
[10:26] <Ayabara> Nubbie, ok. I wondered why they had disappeared from ubuntuguide.org. any other clients to use besides torrenting?
[10:26] <yme> i have a radeon mobility card, 9xxx series
[10:26] <wxq2378> Lacrymology: search for libSDL
[10:26] <baghyay> i was do that "" sudo apt-get install mono monodevelop mono-gmcs "
[10:26] <genii> baghyay: If you only need some MSN program there are others easier to install
[10:27] <Nubbie> Ayabara: you can use them, they just aren't recommended by ubuntu.
[10:27] <Nubbie> baghyay: use pidgin.
[10:27] <sileni> Nubbie: should i just resize the windows partitioni to 10 gb and go back and make linux install on the free continous space option
[10:27] <sileni> ?
[10:27] <flapster> baghyay, Such as GAIM/Pidgin :)
[10:27] <baghyay>  i think monkey are more better
[10:27] <livingtm> is it better to install vmware from the ubuntu packages or from the vmwre site for Feisty?
[10:27] <Nubbie> sileni: yeah thats what i told you to do, make the linux partitions in the free space.
[10:27] <sileni> but how do i do that
[10:27] <sileni> like there is no mount point option
[10:28] <dabaR> baghyay: did you get the source code for the monkey messenger from their web site?
[10:28] <yme> you can't do the guided formats, when u do a manual, it will ask for a mount point
[10:28] <lou_> it will do it itself
[10:28] <baghyay> not yet
[10:28] <dabaR> baghyay: that is step 1.
[10:28] <baghyay>  ok
[10:28] <matt____> I was wanting to encrypt my harddisk, 200gb, using truecrypt in feisty. however, i noticed that when you mount a file volume to a folder or something right now, to get stuff onto it you have to do it as root. if i encrypt the entire disk, and then mount the entire disk, will i have to always use sudo to write to it?
[10:28] <Neil-> Hey gus
[10:28] <Neil-> how can i make screencasts in ubuntu?
[10:28] <Lacrymology> and no versions are wxq2378 nope
[10:29] <JammasterJay> i ran this in terminal "$ export BEAGLE_EXERCISE_THE_DOG=1" should i see something happening?
[10:29] <Lacrymology> wxq2378, not there in caps either
[10:29] <yme> flapster, give up on me?
[10:29] <dyrne> Neil-: ive heard good things about istanbul  it is in repos
[10:29] <lou_> yme have you tried dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[10:29] <flapster> yme, I havent just dont know anything about ATi :), Sorry
[10:29] <lbawinowns> Hello! I've ordered a couple of Ubuntu and Kubuntu CDs, will they be feisty?
[10:30] <Nubbie> sileni: it should say mount path or something.
[10:30] <wxq2378> Lacrymology: did you a serch in syncptic? there shoould be several libSDLxx packages
[10:30] <flapster> lbawinowns, If you just ordered them yeah
[10:30] <sileni> Nubbie: nope
[10:30] <yme> lou, i'm very new to linux, so no, i haven't tried anything really
[10:30] <lbawinowns> flapster, ok, thank you :)
[10:30] <sileni> Nubbie: when i click on the unpartionied free space and click new partitioin
[10:30] <kbrooks> (04:29:50 PM) lbawinowns: Hello! I've ordered a couple of Ubuntu and Kubuntu CDs, will they be feisty? # yes
[10:30] <sileni> create as and file system
[10:30] <yme> if anyone has any idea how i could get the drivers on there with only a terminal command, pelase tell me
[10:30] <lou_> ah i see do that in sudo then and follow the directions
[10:30] <sileni> Nubbie: create as and file system
[10:30] <lbawinowns> So coll that they ship it for free :)!
[10:30] <wxq2378> matt____: maybe you can use "-o uid=$USER" as mount option to get acces for you as user
[10:30] <sileni> Nubbie: under file system there are options like linux-swap and such tho
[10:31] <sileni> Nubbie: maybe thats it ?
[10:31] <Nubbie> sileni: under file system select ext 3.
[10:31] <sileni> Nubbie: ok
[10:31] <Nubbie> create as select /
[10:31] <lou_> space bar is used to select yer options yme
[10:31] <matt____> wxq2378: um, what? so i would do, for example, sudo truecrypt /path/to/file -o uid:$matt
[10:31] <matt____> wxq2378: would that work?
[10:31] <sh00t1> 6.10 how to upgrade amanda
[10:31] <genii> baghyay: If you download the file from here: http://www.box.net/public/xtairqb24r        then do on commandline: sudo dkg -i monkeymessenger_0.1svn154_i386.deb   that should work (you need to be in the directory you downloaded it to of course)
[10:31] <lou_> that should get you back to square one
[10:31] <sileni> Nubbie: there is no / option it is primary partion, extended partition, logical partition

[10:33] <sh00t1> 6.10 how to upgrade amanda-server or downgrade version of tar
[10:33] <Nubbie> lee_: unmount it and go to device in gparted
[10:33] <dyrne> lee_: i think cfdisk might be easiest to use
[10:34] <lee_> Ok
[10:34] <Nubbie> sh00t1: you installed it manually?
[10:34] <dyrne> lee_: gparted easier i guess
[10:34] <r0bby> maybe i should also try +x on /bin
[10:34] <genii> r0bby Something further up the pipe must be royally messed up then
[10:34] <r0bby> let's try that
[10:34] <Nubbie> sh00t1: uninstall it using the directory you used to install it and then install the version you want from repositories.
[10:34] <sh00t1> no is Amanda version 2.5.0p2 and is incompattable with 1.15 version of tar

[10:37] <dabaR> baghyay: use the tab completion so I can see you sent me a message, please.
[10:37] <lee_> dyrne: where should it appear now?
[10:37] <genii> DrLaunch Is there a hard drive which normally wants to boot when the computer starts?
[10:37] <sileni> Nubbie: under file system i choose linux-swap ? to make the swap partion ?

[10:39] <yme> no go lou_, still getting the same problem
[10:39] <genii> DrLaunch: Keep in mind if you switch the boot order in bios it screws the hard drive assignments that the drives got. sda might become after adc or weird stuff like so

[10:41] <matt____> barbarella_me: I was wanting to encrypt a disk (200Gb) yet i was wondering how I would read/write files to it. I noticed that if right now I mount a volume (truecrypt), you have to act as root to add/remove/edit files in the volume, such as sudo rm, or sudo cp
[10:42] <sileni> ext3, ext2, fat 16 , fat 32 ,hfs,jfs,linuxswap,reisefs,ntfs,xfs, unformatted : those are my options
[10:42] <erstazi> Nubbie, in configuration editor (because I don't have metacity-setup and its not in the repos) where do I edit for the window's toolbar's blink/flash rate
[10:42] <alleyoopster> Zigosity: it is likely that you are not the owner or that you do not have permissions to change the folder
[10:43] <sileni> Nubbie: ext3, ext2, fat 16 , fat 32 ,hfs,jfs,linuxswap,reisefs,ntfs,xfs, unformatted : those are my options
[10:43] <lou_> hmm wonder if it's the vert horiz refresh
[10:43] <lou_> i got this on my x800 too
[10:43] <DrLaunch> genii: I'm trying to make ubuntu-on-a-usb-hard-drive. So I can bring it anywhere.
[10:43] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: I figured as much. Any way I can change them anyway?
[10:43] <Nubbie> sileni: ext3, but another option on that same screen  lets you specify the mount point.
[10:43] <yme> lou_, was that for me?
[10:43] <Molluck> Can somebody help me? everytime i type the keyring password, ubuntu freezes up.  the cursor can still be moved around, but nothing on screen can be clicked. i am forced to hard reboot every time.
[10:43] <alleyoopster> Zigosity: well yes, but what is it you are changing?
[10:43] <sileni> Nubbie: none that lets me specify my mount point :(
[10:43] <baghyay> %C9<dabaR> i can't find that
[10:44] <Nubbie> erstazi: i don't know if gconf has a key to change flash rate, i was merely asking if you were using metacity.
[10:44] <barbarella_me> matt____:do you mount it with -U option
[10:44] <lou_> ya
[10:44] <Nubbie> sileni: press F1.
[10:44] <matt____> barbarella_me: how, show me!!!
[10:44] <sileni> i did
[10:44] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: I need to change the "Others" Permissions from none to read\write or something similar.
[10:44] <yme> ok, it's a standard dell 1505,
[10:44] <barbarella_me> matt____:oops -u i mean

[10:44] <yme> no upgraded graphics.
[10:44] <erstazi> Nubbie, I just hope it wasn't hardcoded in (:
[10:44] <Nubbie> erstazi: it could be related to the theme.
[10:45] <yme> how do i change the refresh then? or solve the problem you suggested
[10:45] <erstazi> Nubbie, good point, thank you for your help
[10:45] <dabaR> baghyay: do you see the configure file from the source code you downloaded?

[10:46] <Blackhawk5193> If I boot from 1 hard drive when I have 2, is changing the OS on the one I boot from from Windows XP to Ubuntu Linux a bad idea?
[10:46] <alleyoopster> Zigosity: ok, are you the owner?
[10:46] <genii> DrLaunch: Yes, but when you installed it (the OS) to sdb, after you switched the bootup order in bios, it now thinks it's drive name is sda instead.
[10:46] <lou_> yme: sudo apt-get update
[10:46] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: It says I am, but it still won't let me change it.

[10:46] <lee_> Hmm
[10:46] <genii> DrLaunch: However, this can be fixed
[10:46] <lou_> yme: sudo apt-get install xorg-driver-fglrx
[10:46] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: It's on a different harddrive than the one that ubuntu is installed on, if this has anything to do with it.
[10:46] <lee_> I have 2 DVD-ROM drives but only one is in Computer
[10:46] <sileni> forget it i give up on dual booting ><

[10:47] <sileni> Nubbie: thank you for trying to help i will try linux later in time
[10:47] <lee_> Im not sure, I think both are slaves
[10:47] <Nubbie> sileni: it is very easy do.
[10:47] <lee_> in Windows they both appear
[10:47] <Nubbie> sileni: change /mount/hda# to /home.

[10:48] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: sure.
[10:48] <lou_> if that doesn't work then, iono
[10:48] <genii> DrLaunch: If you can access the usb drive from another linux install or the livecd, you can edit the files /boot/grub/menu.lst   and /etc/fstab   to change hd1 to hd0 in the menu.lst and sdb to sda in the /etc/fstab
[10:48] <barbarella_me> matt____:yes
[10:48] <yme> lou_, any particular order?
[10:48] <nickrud> Molluck, first thing I'd do is move ~/.gnome2/keyrings/* out of the way (like to the desktop) and then sudo aptitude reinstall gnome-keyring-manager
[10:48] <matt____> barbarella_me: just tried it, thanks so much, will the same work if i encrpyt the entire disk?
[10:48] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: What am I looking for here?
[10:48] <Nubbie> lou_: make sure they check the multimedia systems properties thing to make sure they are in fact using Xv. some people disable it for using beryl or w/e.
[10:48] <lou_> in that order
[10:49] <lou_> he can't get x to start
[10:49] <alleyoopster> Zigosity: look at the 3rd and 4th columns - thats the owners

[10:57] <elias> Is there a way to get "wall" messages to be displayed in Gnome?
[10:57] <Blackhawk5193> So I'm downloading the CD Iso and I'm wondering about the Live CD thing.
[10:57] <grn> does ubuntu studio have the restricted drivers active by default...I thought I saw it was configured that way with fiesty
[10:57] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: It still won't let me change the permissions, even after that.
[10:57] <yeniklasor> I want a documentation about using bluetooth headset. Can you help?
[10:58] <Klik> Hello, does anybody know where i can found the bookmarks of opera?
[10:58] <Mikaeln> I got my openvpn tunnel to work, (it's possible to ftp and ping through it...) But http is not possible... anyone got any ideas?
[10:58] <yeniklasor> !headset
[10:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about headset - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:58] <kdub432> JakReloaded, copy the output of dmesg to http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org and give me the link it makes so i can have a look
[10:58] <voidmage> --CONFIG-- [con010c]  Filesystem 'fuseblk' used by '/dev/disk/by-uuid/9EDCA15BDCA12F09' is not recognised as a local filesystem
[10:58] <voidmage> What does that mean and how can I fix it?
[10:58] <walla> so there is no way to download without the riaa spying in?
[10:58] <Blackhawk5193> Can I just put it in a computer that can't normally boot an operating system because of a lack of hard disk space and get it to run in a way where I can free up hard drive space?
[10:59] <t94xr-lappy> walla, yes. but u have to know what ur downloading
[10:59] <t94xr-lappy> and doing.
[10:59] <walla> what do i need to know?
[10:59] <yme> fatal xserver error 104, error in locking in authority file. Can anyone help me fix this?
[10:59] <t94xr-lappy> everything about how they can catch you...
[10:59] <alleyoopster> Zigosity: if you want to give full write permissions "sudo chmod 666 <folder>"
[10:59] <voidmage> !xauth
[10:59] <grn> Blackhawk5193: the live cd does not need a hardrive to run
[10:59] <Blackhawk5193> And I'm guessing nobody cares about my problems what with 1289 users in this channel.
[10:59] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about xauth - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:00] <Blackhawk5193> Nevermind
[11:00] <voidmage> !authority

[11:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about authority - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[11:00] <Mikaeln> Anyone who can help me with OpenVPN?

[11:00] <voidmage> !xhangs

[11:00] <Nubbie> walla: i would change ISP's since the one you're using so readily sold you out.
[11:00] <grn> Blackhawk5193: what OS is installed on the drive

[11:01] <alleyoopster> Zigosity you ran the chmod command on the folder?
[11:01] <wxq2378> somebody savy with udev its events and automatically mounting? whats the daemon/script/whatever that should receive the events and do the mounts?
[11:01] <Nubbie> hypn0: your government gives them the search warrants.
[11:01] <grn> Blackhawk5193: if it is NTFS you may have some trouble but I am not certain
[11:01] <kcinna> you guys won't like this, i dont like it myself, but hopefully you understand and can help.  i need to install a windows partition.  i'd like to install it on a second drive, but the windows installer wants a fat32 partition on the main drive.  is there any way around this? cant grub handle both operating systems?
[11:01] <Blackhawk5193> I'm not sure about the file system. It might be FAT32 but maybe it's NTFS
[11:01] <wxq2378> Klik: i don't but i would look for a hidden .opera folder in your home folder
[11:01] <voidmage> --CONFIG-- [con010c]  Filesystem 'fuseblk' used by '/dev/disk/by-uuid/9EDCA15BDCA12F09' is not recognised as a local filesystem
[11:01] <voidmage> What does that mean and how can I fix it?
[11:01] <Answer> !ntfs | Blackhawk5193
[11:01] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: Yeah, sudo chmod 666 /media/FILES/Temp to be exact.
[11:02] <Blackhawk5193> I'm pretty sure it's FAT32 though

[11:06] <grn> walla: no ... but I have always wondered because the riaa has seemed to prosecute because of IP screenshots ... but if they are sharing packets with you and they do not have permission to distribute I don't know if it is really legal for them either
[11:06] <Klik> wxq2378, thx, exporting is the solution to my problem, thank you very much!

[11:18] <eternaljoy> variant: you are a hoot dude :)
[11:18] <macsim> my external harddrive isn't mount with gnome-volume-manager, is it a bug ? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21197/
[11:18] <dyrne> z0man: one thing to bear in mind is that the partition hda1 will be hda0 as grub starts numbering at 0 instead of 1
[11:18] <alleyoopster> Zigosity: you could try sudo nautilus (but use with care) and look at permisions again
[11:18] <z0man> I know GRUB was pointing to the wrong partition...When I mounted the drive and looked at menu.lst it wasnt
[11:18] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: Already tried that.
[11:18] <eternaljoy> variant: btw, that link u gave me didn t help at all
[11:18] <z0man> And i know if I installed XP over ubuntu it will loose the grub boot
[11:19] <variant> eternaljoy: you asked where to get cedega cvs, the top link in that google search was the site containing google cvs source
[11:19] <variant> eternaljoy: http://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-GB%3Aofficial&channel=s&hl=en&q=cedega+cvs&btnG=Google+Search
[11:19] <z0man> I spent around 2 days trying to fix GRUB and in the end I decided 100% ubuntu instead.
[11:20] <z0man> And be patient with WINE :P
[11:20] <eternaljoy> variant: you mean this one?  http://www.transgaming.com/license.php?source=1  ?
[11:20] <eternaljoy> variant: you nort listening well
[11:20] <dcordes> how can I tell dhcp3-server to use a certain interface? I already set the ath0 iface in /etc/default/dhcp3-server (it doesn't start because of "No subnet declaration for ath0 (0.0.0.0)")
[11:20] <eternaljoy> variant: there is a free version.
[11:20] <alleyoopster> Zigosity - i dont think this is meant to be, i get the same behaviour here
[11:21] <kazol> Is there a way to enable wifi encryption in Feisty?
[11:21] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: What do you mean? By the way, in nautilus, when I try and change the permissions, it sets for a second and then just jumps back to what it was before...
[11:21] <alleyoopster> Zigosity: you cannot change it because it is fat32
[11:21] <Blackhawk5193> How much would a 2 terabyte external hard drive cost?
[11:21] <dyrne> kazol: tell it a wep key?
[11:21] <beli> kazol: that's my question too
[11:21] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: Great.
[11:22] <alleyoopster> Zigosity: fat32 has no understanding
[11:22] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: Is there any way at all of sharing this on a network then?
[11:22] <kazol> dyrne: I would have preferred WPA.
[11:22] <beli> kazol: network manager is just giving me WEP......but who is using WEP nowadays anymore?
[11:22] <dcordes> beli, my neighbour does :-)
[11:22] <dcordes> j/k
[11:22] <Nubbie> Blackhawk5193: first off it would have to be more than one hard drive, and it probably would be several hundred dollars.
[11:22] <kazol> Is there a way to configure WPA? I cannot see any encryption settings.
[11:22] <dcordes> kazol, in feisty?
[11:22] <Assassin`> what should i use in ubuntu to burn an iso image?
[11:23] <kazol> dcordes: yes.
[11:23] <dyrne> kazol: well i never use wpa because its too much of a pain to crack :). wep is like 'sudo iwconfig ath0 essid networkname key 1321354' where ath0 is whatever interface
[11:23] <beli> dcordes: maybe he is using freeswan afterwards ;)
[11:23] <Kyral_Laptop> Assassin`: in GNOME, Gnomebaker
[11:23] <LjL> !burniso > Assassin`    (Assassin`, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:23] <dcordes> Assassin`, right click it and open with burn something or so
[11:23] <Kyral_Laptop> in KDE, k3b FTW
[11:23] <Kyral_Laptop> (Well, k3b FTW in general :D)
[11:23] <alleyoopster> Zigosity good question, currently it doesnt work i take it?
[11:23] <dcordes> Kyral_Laptop, in gnome that way is quicker
[11:23] <dcordes> ways
[11:24] <kazol> dyrne: thanks for the cmd.
[11:24] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: No, it doesn't, and if I can't get it working I have to go back to windows >_< Bleh
[11:24] <Kyral_Laptop> dcordes: I haven't used GNOME on a regular basis in about 2 years :P
[11:24] <dcordes> so somebody saw my dhcp problem?
[11:24] <Kyral_Laptop> I'm used to KDE :D
[11:24] <kazol> How do I scan wifi frequencies? I know there is a cmd for it.
[11:24] <amit> stefg, can you see the videos on the site?
[11:24] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: That's why I'm trying to change the permissions in the first place.
[11:24] <stefg> amit: yes
[11:24] <dcordes> kazol, you mean how to scan on a certain frequency?
[11:24] <Kyral_Laptop> kazol: (as root) iwlist wireless_device scanning
[11:24] <dcordes> Kyral_Laptop, no root required for iwlist scan
[11:24] <Kyral_Laptop> make sure the device is up first...
[11:25] <amit> stefg, i cant find that package.
[11:25] <Kyral_Laptop> dcordes: Oh? I guess because I normally switch to root to bring it up first... :P
[11:25] <stefg> amit: then read again
[11:25] <stefg> !w32codecs | amit
[11:25] <ubotu> amit: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[11:25] <disinterested> im trying to install torcs-1.3.0 and after getting alot of its dependencies i get this configure error  Can't find libX11. ?
[11:25] <dooglus> you can quickly type the command by doing:  "iwl<tab><tab>s<tab><return>"
[11:26] <kazol> Kyral_Laptop: It says the device does not support scanning. Why?
[11:26] <bhuey_> Question, what's a good package to install if you want a good way of serving wiki pages ?
[11:26] <Kyral_Laptop> kazol: Heck if I know. It always works with me :D
[11:26] <axl000> someone have a intel 915 and tvout enabled??
[11:26] <Kyral_Laptop> (Though I have heard of this)
[11:26] <fiber> hello, i'm having a wierd problem with gnomescreensaver (i'm on amd64, ati, fglrx).  basically, when the screen saver starts (and only if it starts on it's own, not with the preview function), my colors go all out of whack.  it seems as if the color depth is changed.  a screenshot is at http://img360.imageshack.us/img360/6641/screenshotuq3.png .  anyone have any sugjestions on how to remedy this?
[11:26] <alleyoopster> Zigosity if it is just one folder how about copying the data out to a place you can share
[11:26] <Kyral_Laptop> bhuey_: A webserver for one, like Lighttpd or Apache
[11:26] <voltagex> if I can't boot from CD (even when I select it in the BIOS) and I have no floppy, is there a way to install Ubuntu?
[11:27] <dyrne> bhuey_: i guess openwiki is ideal. ive used moin in windows as well and it works easily
[11:27] <dyrne> bhuey_: its python
[11:27] <Lectus> Hello! I installed dapper, but it's only in english, and I can't install portuguese language. Any help?
[11:27] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: I've thought of that, and I'd do it, but my machine is dual boot, and so if I booted into windows I wouldn't me sharing the same folder anymore. And I need windows still for some things, unfortunately.
[11:27] <r0bby> even failsafe boot fails :|
[11:28] <Zigosity> *me = be
[11:28] <h4wk0> !languages | Lectus
[11:28] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about languages - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:28] <tawooh> okay, how do i make it so i can create a new folder under file system??
[11:28] <Kyral_Laptop> tawooh: Uhh...mkdir?
[11:29] <beli> tawooh: ???? maybe you start explaing at the beginning....
[11:29] <stefg> Lectus: sudo apt-get install language-support-pt
[11:29] <ultimateq> might need to be in root. could try to sudo mkdir
[11:29] <dakira> hey.. what was the cmd again that I can use on a file to find out which package it belongs to?
[11:29] <Kyral_Laptop> pac...whoops this is Ubuntu...
[11:29] <alleyoopster> Zigosity there is some info on this page that might help http://computer-vet.com/tech/linuxfileserver.html
[11:29] <Lectus> stefg: it says it can't find the package
[11:29] <beli> Kyral_Laptop:  *G*
[11:29] <Lectus> are there other repositories?
[11:29] <alleyoopster> Zigosity i am out of ideas
[11:29] <Cpudan80> Seveas: ping
[11:29] <tawooh> okay, i am trying to make a new dir under filesystem so i can put the WoW install cds in it, i am a complete novice at linux so please be patient with me...
[11:30] <disinterested> im trying to install torcs-1.3.0 and after getting alot of its dependencies i get this configure error  Can't find libX11. ?
[11:30] <r0bby> tawooh: mkdir
[11:30] <bhuey_> dyrne so you like openwiki ? what about the ruby packages that do that ?
[11:30] <r0bby> we told you
[11:30] <tawooh> robby: ty
[11:30] <beli> tawooh: and what's the problem now?
[11:30] <Seveas> Cpudan80, ?
[11:30] <ze1> I installed Firestarter and selected what I thought were default "desktop" options. Now I cannot connect to local samba machines, nor resolve avahi hostnames. The outbound settings are "permissive" so what's the problem?
[11:30] <stefg> Lectus: sudo apt-get update first, if it still fails your /etc/apt/sources.list is broken. get a new one at !easysource
[11:30] <ultimateq> <--somewhat new to ubuntu, I want an equalizer, or even better a parametric equalizer to work with the os as a whole... any suggestions?
[11:30] <r0bby> that will make a directory in the current working directory
[11:30] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: Thanks for trying, anyway.
[11:31] <disinterested> any suggestions?
[11:31] <BigMac> hey, is the package with gcc and stuff called "buildessential"?
[11:31] <alleyoopster> Zigosity sounds like there is some lock on that folder
[11:31] <Kyral_Laptop> BigMac: I think there is a - between build and essential
[11:31] <Lectus> !easysource
[11:31] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[11:31] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: Lock? What?
[11:31] <lou_> build-essentials i think
[11:31] <amit> stefg, forgat about "sudo apt-get update" :). installing now. hope it will help. thanks
[11:31] <Cpudan80> Anyone know where I can get the op script for XChat?
[11:32] <Cpudan80> Since Seveas isn't around :(
[11:32] <alleyoopster> Zigosity something stopping access, a flag or something, i am guessing here
[11:32] <BigMac> Kyral_Laptop: Heh I knew it was something stupid
[11:32] <Kyral_Laptop> BigMac: Its okay :D
[11:32] <lou_> lol
[11:32] <tawooh> has anyone had good success using the wine+World of Warcraft combo on an older computer??
[11:32] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: According to the page you linked me to, it should be more than possible to do this :|
[11:32] <ultimateq> whats the hotkeys to switch between desktops >.< I want to pull up that cube thinger
[11:32] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: They aren't having any problems at all with FAT32
[11:32] <grn> tawooh: what hardware?
[11:33] <elias> how can I send a message to all X users on the local X-server?
[11:33] <kazol> beli: I don't care that much for wifi encryption, since the area around the house is forested and the nearest house is 50m away.

[11:33] <msikma> Good evening, good people of Linux.
[11:33] <Assassin`> i just wasted a disk -_- trying to write kubuntu to it with gnomebaker
[11:33] <ultimateq> wonderful =)
[11:33] <msikma> I have a few tiny and probably simple questions.
[11:33] <mc44> Cpudan80: http://www.kaarsemaker.net/files/Software/chanserv.py
[11:33] <Kyral_Laptop> Assassin`: This is why CD-RWs rock :D
[11:34] <Cpudan80> mc44: ty ty
[11:34] <alleyoopster> Zigosity yep, it looks completely possible, if you can access all the other folders on that disk then try removing recreating the folder again perhaps
[11:34] <chump> msikma: ask your question ;)
[11:34] <msikma> I recently installed Gnome. I normally use text-mode environments only (on this old computer!)
[11:34] <prosper0000> .
[11:34] <msikma> So now when I start up, I always get Gnome. I'd like to start it when I want to only.
[11:34] <void^> msikma: remove gdm from your runlevel
[11:34] <Assassin`> Kyral_Laptop: ??
[11:35] <msikma> void^: How would I do this?
[11:35] <void^> msikma: update-rc.d, or rm
[11:35] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: I'll try it. Actually, I'll try making a new folder on it and sharing that.
[11:35] <Kyral_Laptop> Assassin`: If you get a bad burn with a CD-RW you just blank it and go again :D
[11:35] <Blackhawk5193> Is it possble to port a litestep theme to ubuntu?
[11:35] <Assassin`> what should i use to write kubuntu to a disk?
[11:35] <RagingBull> how do you minimize windows under 7.04 using compiz? and how do i rotate the cubed workspaces with the mouse rather than selecting a workspace?
[11:35] <bluebyte_> hi @ all. i have a little question. Maybe someone can help me with than. Is it possible to color the messages on boot???
[11:35] <stefg> !backup | Assassin`
[11:36] <beli> kazol: but WPA/WPA2 should be available out of the box nowadays!
[11:36] <crimsun> beli: it is for some wifi chipsets.
[11:36] <cherva> !colour boot
[11:36] <amit> stefg,  installed (Setting up mozilla-mplayer (3.31+main-1ubuntu1) ... Setting up w32codecs (20061022-1~seveas1) ...) but i cant see the video. :(
[11:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about colour boot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:36] <ze1> RagingBull: iirc, ctrl-alt left drag rotates cube
[11:36] <Assassin`> what?
[11:36] <crimsun> beli: and it's getting better with every upstream Linux release.
[11:36] <danny3793> !color boot
[11:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about color boot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:36] <wxq2378> bluebyte_: i think the ANSI escapes should work
[11:36] <cherva> !color
[11:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about color - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:36] <kazol> beli: where?
[11:36] <danny3793> !colorboot
[11:36] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about colorboot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:36] <danny3793> lol
[11:37] <stefg> amit: test if this is still the case after reboot
[11:37] <bluebyte_> thx ;-
[11:37] <Assassin`> seriously whats a good program for burning software????
[11:37] <cherva> danny3793: I'm just testing no need to copy my msg's
[11:37] <andre> how can i have 1440x900 resolution? im using ati radeon x800 gto
[11:37] <msikma> void^: I think I've done it... thanks.
[11:37] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: Hold on, brb
[11:37] <cherva> Assassin`: K3B
[11:37] <danny3793> oh, kk :_)
[11:37] <Sergo> Assassin: i use gnomebacker
[11:38] <MenZa> Does anyone here have a recommendation for an application that will automatically update my IP (dynamic IP) to dyndns.org?
[11:38] <lou_> andre: have you tried installing fglrx?
[11:38] <andre> lou_ installed already
[11:39] <amit> stefg, i solved it with mplayer -dumpstream, thanks for your time
[11:39] <lou_> know how to edit xorg.conf?
[11:39] <ze1> Do you need to add policy to Firestarter to allow outgoing smb connections?
[11:39] <wxq2378> lou_: with your favorite editor or with "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[11:39] <Assassin`> haha all u have to do is right click the .iso and choose write to disk
[11:39] <Assassin`> ^_^
[11:40] <void^> MenZa: i've been using ez-ipupdate for years, but i guess anything showing up with 'apt-cache search dyndns' should work
[11:40] <andre> lou_ yes i can edit it
[11:40] <XGirlFriend> hi ! is there a tool to record .asx files
[11:40] <MenZa> void^: Yeah, I tried a few, but I can't really finda anything decent. Mind guiding me through setting up ez-ipupdate?
[11:40] <MenZa> void^: I'm assuming "dyndns" as provider
[11:41] <MenZa> hmm
[11:41] <wulax> new dark gtk+ theme :-) http://hem.bredband.net/b539954/screenshot01.png
[11:41] <void^> MenZa: well, if you apt-get install it it should ask for the account info i think. you should just make sure /etc/ez-ipupdate/default.conf has the right info (especially the right interface)
[11:41] <MenZa> void^: well that was simple
[11:41] <|chiz|> Assassin: you can try brasero
[11:41] <MenZa> void^: it dpkg-reconfigured it self
[11:41] <MenZa> itself*
[11:41] <MenZa> Now I'll see if that works when I renew my ip
[11:41] <ze1> Does no one use Firestarter?
[11:41] <MenZa> I don't want to do that now
[11:42] <mc44> !enter > MenZa :P
[11:42] <MenZa> void^: Cheers :)
[11:42] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: Urgh. For some reason, I can no longer mount, or even see, any of my devices. Neither one of my CD drives, my floppy drive, or the two partitions on my other harddrive...
[11:42] <Zigosity> alleyoopster: I didn't even do anything : |
[11:44] <wxq2378> Zigosity: used hibernate?
[11:44] <Zigosity> wxq2378: No, all I could have possibly done was run the cat /proc/partitions command, and that was a while ago.
[11:47] <wxq2378> somebody savy with udev its events and automatically mounting? whats the daemon/script/whatever that should receive the events and do the mounts? cause it does not woek after suspend/resume
[11:48] <crimsun> wxq2378: I doubt it's a udev issue; it's more likely hal and gnome-mount.
[11:48] <tawooh> okay, hopefully i don't melt my motherboard and chipset trying to do this, seeyas later if its successful.
[11:48] <eternaljoy> !Cedega
[11:48] <ubotu> cedega is a project based on WINE, aimed at running Windows games on Linux. For more info, see http://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cedega
[11:48] <Zigosity> Great, I broke something. hurrah.
[11:48] <alleyoopster> Zigosity dont know dude, sounds like fstab, but no reason for it
[11:48] <Zigosity> They just LEFT
[11:49] <Zigosity> Like, I was using them, and then they were GONE
[11:49] <Zigosity> ;_;
[11:49] <alleyoopster> Zigosity dont use them
[11:49] <cherva> renice is for changing process priority right ?
[11:49] <wxq2378> crimsun: ash a new name: gnome-mount.. how to debug that? i checked udevmonitor and  "udevcontrol logpriority=debug" and there are indeed events
[11:50] <crimsun> wxq2378: right, it's not a udev issue.  It's a hal + gnome-mount issue.
[11:50] <Zigosity> Unfortunately, I'd like to have the use of all my files and my Optical drives. It's sort of important.
[11:50] <crimsun> wxq2378: first, make sure hal is noticing them.
[11:50] <cherva> cherva:test
[11:50] <blackest> Zigosity how hot is your system
[11:51] <Zigosity> blackest: About as hot as a penguin.
[11:51] <wxq2378> crimsun: where do i look to see if hal is doing that?
[11:51] <Zigosity> Blackest: This has been running for years and has NEVER had heat problems
[11:51] <crimsun> wxq2378: lshal and a number of different hal utilities.
[11:51] <Zigosity> Uh oh
[11:51] <blackest> well its one possibility ruled out
[11:51] <Zigosity> I can't eject the CD drive either. Heh
[11:51] <papyromancer> How can I download a directory tree from the command line over ftp on ubuntu server?
[11:52] <Zigosity> I hope my power supply isn't going.
[11:52] <blackest> something seems to be
[11:52] <mssever> During the process of upgrading from edgy to feisty, the update manager crashed. It was installing packages. When I restarted update-manager, it didn't offer the upgrade option like before, but it did offer to upgrade 800+ packages. What do I do from here? It appears that the upgrade program does more than just apt-get upgrade, so how can I get the upgrade program to start up and continue where it left off?
[11:52] <xXSive>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY whogivesashit
[11:53] <vorbote> mssever: your best bet is to let the update mamanger do its thing
[11:53] <Zigosity> blackest: Dunno why it wouldn't take the whole system down with it, though.
[11:53] <blackest> Zigosty how loaded is it lots of drives and cards ?
[11:53] <mssever> vorbote: the quesstion I have, though, is that the upgrade program won't start back up again
[11:54] <PriceChild> xXSive, please change your password now :)
[11:54] <xXSive> lol, that is not my password
[11:54] <Zigosity> Blackest: Vid card, sound card, 2 CD drives, floppy, 2 harddrives, one of which I installed Sunday.
[11:54] <PriceChild> xXSive, then please don't swear in channel
[11:54] <xXSive> i can't remember it..  so that is simply my thoughts on it
[11:55] <blackest> zigosity it could be a touch too much on the power
[11:55] <vorbote> mssever: you may need to force it. Say: "update-manager -c -d"
[11:55] <wxq2378> crimsun: i ran lshal w/ and w/o card inserted and i see that an entry is created and removed for "block.device = '/dev/sdb1'" which is the name i see in dmesg and the udev logs. i have now clue what it should realy look like, but i'd guess that this is not the problem
[11:55] <mssever> vorbote: thanks...I'll try that now
[11:56] <blackest> maybe disconnect non essential drives for now see if it boots like that
[11:56] <tawooh> okay, how do i find which directory to type in the terminal to run a specific program, i am not used to the file structure of linux...
[11:56] <crimsun> wxq2378: right, so continue to debug hal and gnome-mount.  It's beginning to look like gnome-mount - particularly if you can manually mount it.
[11:56] <Zigosity> blackest: Possibly. I have quite a few power supplies around here, so replacing it isn't really an issue.
[11:56] <mc44> tawooh: which specific program?
[11:56] <blackest> tawooh locate prog name
[11:56] <Zigosity> It boots fine, I restarted it as soon as this happened.
[11:57] <Zigosity> BIOS also recognized all the drives
[11:57] <blackest> sometimes hds get themselves in a state and need to spend 10 minutes or so revalidating themselves
[11:57] <mssever> vorbote: no luck. It must think that it's already at Feisty. I'll just install the updates that it suggests and see what happens
[11:57] <wxq2378> crimsun: an other day i had the problem i did manually mount, which worked as expected
[11:57] <tawooh> trying to run installer.exe using wine, i typed what the how to said to type, but it tells me it cannot find the program, so i need to know how to type out c:\home\matthew\wowinstall\installer.exe in linux format
[11:57] <Zigosity> blackest: That wouldn't explain losing all my other drives, too.
[11:58] <vorbote> mssever: good luck!
[11:58] <blackest> unless the ide bus isn't ready because of it
[11:58] <Zigosity> Mm
[11:58] <Zigosity> Well
[11:59] <Zigosity> I'll go try it in windows (yey dual boot) and see what happens.
[11:59] <wxq2378> crimsun: should there be a gnome-mount process running or is that just run on insertion/removal?
[11:59] <crimsun> wxq2378: only on insertion/removal.
[12:00] <DrLaunch> Some of you might have seen some of Windows special display features. One allows you to connect a second monitor to your PC and expand the desktop to that monitor. Does Ubuntu have anything similar except viritual desktops?
[12:00] <tawooh> nvm, figured it out
[12:00] <gentoo_user> has anyone used rxtx succesfully on ubuntu server edition here?
