[12:01] <eille-la> hi, i can't make iptables to output log kernel message via klogd/syslogd. how could i try to debug iptables/klogd to see if a log message is sended by iptables at the first place?
[12:01] <linux_kid> Hadron, i have tryed to crack wep, my wifi card dosen't work with aircrack
[12:01] <Hadron> linuxboy: so what?
 when i open ooffice in terminal it opens up a window but if i then try it create a new document it disappears, and i already have SUn's JRE installed
[12:02] <Masin> Falados, the problem is that smbtree fails to resolve any hosts in my network because of this search domain. It simply tries to resolve 'sol.solarsystem.de' when it tries just  to resolve 'sol'
[12:02] <blind> I used to be able to use 1280x1024 screen resolution. For whatever reason, my xorg got borked and I had to fix it. I have the correct refresh rates (same ones I had before), same video card, and I've added the 1280x1024 resolution to my xorg. When I go to change my resolution, 1280x1024 isn't even an option. How can I fix this? (oh, and X has been restarted, so it's not that)
[12:03] <dogmeat> is there a flash plugin compatible with x86_64?
[12:03] <aoliax> take care everyone
[12:03] <Falados> Nvening: I had this same problem with Matlab, it wont load unless I load it from the terminal =\ I never was able to solve that problem
[12:03] <Masin> Falados, I guess this has something to do with the fact that my computer cannot find any LAN printers
[12:03] <Nvening> ill try reinstalling
[12:04] <flaviocpontes> Hadron: It brings the info in fstab.  I just reformatted a vfat partition and I need to update my fstab so it gets mountd in the right place.
[12:04] <kitche> blind: what gnome res picker does not even look at xorg.conf res just remove all the res from /etc/X11/xorg.conf and just put int he resolution you want to use
[12:04] <RageMax> is there any sort of ubuntu usability group that tests for a good user experience?
[12:04] <Falados> Masin: Where does this 'search domain' thing appear?
[12:04] <flaviocpontes> Hadron: I reformatted to ext3. I'm going ubuntu only now and I want a clean disk =)
[12:04] <kitche> RageMax: the desktop team they are in #ubuntu-desktop
[12:05] <blind> kitche: is there another program i could use, or perhaps a cli program built in that i could use?
[12:05] <mwe> rfried: I think you need to compile your own kernel for that
[12:05] <JordiGH> Ubuntu's FAQ doesn't mention Debian at all. I was hoping to get a clear explanation of the current relationship between Debian and Ubuntu. Does that exist?
[12:05] <JordiGH> I mean this FAQ, btw: http://www.ubuntu.com/aboutus/faq
[12:05] <Mr680x0^Acer> I installed and ran Beryl, now I have a white screen with a cursor
[12:05] <Mr680x0^Acer> :(
[12:05] <Masin> it appears in the networking setup dialog, tab 'DNS'
[12:05] <Mr680x0^Acer> HELP!
[12:06] <roller> dogmeat: install the swiftfox browser wich runs a 32-bit browser in a amd64 system
[12:06] <kitche> blind: you can do sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and reconfigure xorg and just make sure your resolution is there for the resolution that xorg can use at least that's how some advance users just do it
[12:06] <Masin> Falados, it appears in the networking setup dialog, tab 'DNS'
[12:06] <davef> Has anyone tried compiling the kernel using the 'git' and 'AUTOBUILD=1 fakeroot debian/rules binary-debs'?
[12:06] <roller> then install all the swiftfox plugins
[12:06] <fawaz> i have downloaded the package sun-java6 but the site i;m trying to view still asking me to install the java plug in ! what did i miss?
[12:06] <Enverex> How do you allow users to write to removable media? For some reason it's not letting anyone other than root write to my flash drive
[12:06] <Falados> DNS information should be left blank, unless you have a static IP. This information is given with the DHCP server
[12:06] <roller> you can install all this with automatix2
[12:06] <CeKay> hello everyone. i just want to install ubuntu and have a small question: which file system is recommended for my partition where i want to install ubuntu ?
[12:06] <Falados> Masin: DNS information should be left blank, unless you have a static IP. This information is given with the DHCP server
[12:06] <harry__> where can I find a list/table of system memory requirements for ubuntu {both current and historically}?
[12:06] <blind> kitche: i edited my xorg manually. i just tried to use xrandr and it says the mode is not available.
[12:06] <Masin> Falados, and it keeps reappearing everytime I delete it
[12:07] <roller> http://www.getautomatix.com/
[12:07] <davef> CeKay: ext3
[12:07] <CeKay> ok thanx davef
[12:07] <blind> !automatix | roller
[12:07] <ubotu> roller: 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
[12:07] <roller> ok blind
[12:08] <fawaz> so any hints for installing the java plug in for firefox?
[12:08] <Falados> Masin: I'll look at my installation, but I've never had to fill in that field before.  In fact, I've never had to touch my network configuration except on my router-box, which is a special case.
[12:08] <Flannel> !java | fawaz
[12:08] <CAL|Smeltn> anyone know how to fix this error when installing
[12:08] <CAL|Smeltn> [5:57:pm]  <CAL|Smeltn> Kernel package: ' linux-generic'
[12:08] <CAL|Smeltn> [5:57:pm]  <CAL|Smeltn> Check /var/log/syslog or see virtual console 4 for the details
[12:08] <ubotu> fawaz: 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
[12:09] <JordiGH> What is the relationship between Debian and Ubuntu? Is there a public statement about this anywhere?
[12:09] <Falados> press CTRL+ALT+F4 and tell me what errors came up
[12:09] <andre> can anyone have 1440x900 resolution with ATI card?
[12:09] <Falados> CAL|Smeltn: press CTRL+ALT+F4 and tell me what errors came up
[12:10] <SpaceBass> anyone have a preference for a directory service suite (like FDS or e-directory) for ubuntu?
[12:10] <steve_> hello people
[12:10] <fawaz> ubotu: i have installed it already but when i browse a site it still ask for JRE ?
[12:11] <pescez> hello
[12:11] <Masin> Falados, thank you
[12:11] <peepsalot> is there a special install cd for 64bit, or is it all the same?
[12:11] <IndyGunFreak> fawaz: ubotu can't talk back.
[12:11] <zabin>  Do you know if there is a way to turn off the hard drives that i have mounted from showing up on my desktop
[12:11] <Flannel> peepsalot: there is.
[12:11] <|chiz|> fawaz: ubotu is not human
[12:11] <blind> kitche: i just used dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and removed all but 1280x1024 resolutions, and inputted the correct refresh rates, and it's still at 1024x768 :\
[12:11] <steve_> i'm having troubles setting up my xorg, enabling my tv-out
[12:11] <steve_>  anyone have some time to help me out on that?
[12:11] <zabin> is there is a way to turn off the hard drives that i have mounted from showing up on my desktop?
[12:11] <strabes> zabin: mount them in /mnt instead of /media
[12:11] <fawaz> can a human answer me then :)
[12:11] <Falados> Masin:  ?? Did something work
[12:11] <zabin> how do i do that
[12:11] <zabin> i have to unmount first?
[12:11] <andre> blind i cant get resolutions to work too
[12:11] <IndyGunFreak> fawaz: a human told ubotu to answer you.
[12:11] <IndyGunFreak> !ubotu
[12:11] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[12:11] <pescez> i have trouble with vmware... can't get sound on host... is that something known?
[12:11] <ccfiel> how do i disable or enable the boot application running? what is the command?
[12:11] <mwe> !fixres
[12:11] <ubotu> The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:11] <blind> andre, have you seen !fixres ?
[12:11] <blind> lol, nevermind.
[12:12] <zabin> strabes: i have to unmount first?
[12:12] <andre> !fixres
[12:12] <factotum> hmmm, is there any way to undo adding kubuntu to a  xubuntu system?
[12:12] <peepsalot> Flannel, is it ok to use a regular CD to install to 64 bit hardware?
[12:12] <peepsalot> can i just get whatever I need later, from repos?
[12:12] <Flannel> peepsalot: a regular CD?  You mean a i386 CD?
[12:12] <fawaz> indygunfreak: that does not answer my question though
[12:12] <strabes> zabin: oh they are external drives? You'll have to change their filesystem labels. Just do a google.
[12:12] <ccfiel> how do i disable or enable the boot application running? what is the command?
[12:12] <IndyGunFreak> fawaz: did you look at the link?
[12:12] <mwe> blind: my guess is you need to tune the timing options in xorg.conf
[12:13] <blind> mwe: timing options?
[12:13] <strabes> zabin: if they're ext3 the command is "e2label"
[12:13] <Falados> Masin: did you try deleteing the current location?
[12:13] <bobbob1016> I remember seeing a tutorial on how to setup ubuntu as a wifi hotspot online, but I can't find it again, does anyone know where I can find it?
[12:13] <fawaz> indygunfreak: yes and i have installed jre 6 successfully
[12:13] <zabin> stabes: they are in ext3
[12:13] <zabin> stables should i unmount it first?
[12:13] <IndyGunFreak> fawaz: then it should work
[12:13] <ccfiel> how do i disable or enable the boot application running? what is the command?
[12:13] <peepsalot> Flannel, yes
[12:13] <Falados> Masin: This is the only other thing I can think of without knowing exactly where this information is stored (/etc/networking/interfaces maybe)
[12:13] <strabes> zabin: forget what i said about changing the label. i wasn't thinking correctly. you'll simply have to change the mount point of the device by right clicking on it and going to properties.
[12:13] <IndyGunFreak> fawaz: what site are you looking at?
[12:13] <|chiz|> fawaz: install j2re1.4-mozilla-plugin
[12:14] <Flannel> peepsalot: You'll end up with a 32bit OS.  You'll need the 64bit CD to install a 64bit OS
[12:14] <dogmeat> roller, thanks
[12:14] <cheeseboy> can i boot my ubuntu server from another pc w/o hardive?
[12:14] <puff> Anybody know how to activate the built-in bluetooth in my laptop?
[12:14] <Cubey> In someone's opinion, what CPU speed would you need to render video decently on youtube in ubuntu? I have the nvidia accelerated graphics working. I
[12:14] <Cubey> (grr..)
[12:14] <peepsalot> Flannel, is the 64bit as stable as 32bit?
[12:14] <The_Giver> my battery notification icon doesnt display the appropriate meter anymore
[12:14] <Masin> Falados, networking in general works, but: smbtree fails resolving the addresses of the hosts in my local network -- it always resolve to the IP of my search domain
[12:14] <Flannel> peepsalot: yep
[12:14] <fawaz> indygunfreak: all the sites that require jre are not working
[12:14] <The_Giver> it just displays "Running on AC power" all the tiem
[12:14] <puff> I plugged in a bluetooth USB dongle and hcitool saw it, but hcitool doesn't see the built-in bluetooth.
[12:14] <peepsalot> ok, time to download another ISO
[12:14] <IndyGunFreak> fawaz: well, you've done something wrong
[12:14] <Masin> Falados, I found this out by pinging my search domain
[12:14] <Cubey> I'm having video lag problems (firefox) with youtube. 1GHz P3. everything runs fine video wise
[12:14] <The_Giver> and when i close my computer i dont get suspend to ram anmore
[12:15] <The_Giver> any ideas?
[12:15] <|chiz|> fawaz: did you install j2re1.4-mozilla-plugin?
[12:15] <The_Giver> (i can do suspend to ram by right clicking the damn icon but that is annoying)
[12:15] <Falados> Masin: Maybe this is a bug with smbtree
[12:15] <Mr680x0^Acer> I need help in Beryl
[12:15] <Falados> Masin: is your Samba installation updated?
[12:15] <Mr680x0^Acer> it's just white except for the cursor
[12:15] <Mr680x0^Acer> I can't even quit
[12:15] <Mr680x0^Acer> :(
[12:15] <IndyGunFreak> !beryl | Mr680x0^Acer
[12:15] <Masin> Falados, my real issue is to connect to a printer via SMB which doesn't work yet :-(
[12:15] <The_Giver> for those who use a laptop.. do you have both power managment services turned on?
[12:15] <ubotu> Mr680x0^Acer: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[12:15] <mwe> blind: sorry. HorizSync and VertRefresh
[12:15] <fawaz> |chiz|: i
[12:16] <roller> Mr680x^Acer: what kind of help?
[12:16] <Shaun_Molder> I have Ubuntu 6.06 on the LiveCD. When I try to run it, I get a message "Failed to start the x-server" and in the log (EE) no devices detected.
[12:16] <fawaz> m doin it as we speak
[12:16] <peepsalot> Flannel, well i've read that flash and java are not well supported with 64bit
[12:16] <The_Giver> Mr680x0^Acer,  try #beryl
[12:16] <Masin> Falados, how can I be out of date? Update manager works, so I guess I have the most recent packages, don't I?
[12:16] <blind> mwe: I've set those to the correct ones for my monitor. They used to work before, I don't know why they're not working now.
[12:16] <Falados> Hmm... Well windows has printer services for UNIX machines, try doing that and connecting to it via CUPS
[12:16] <mwe> blind: hmm
[12:16] <bartzitz> hello, my laptop fan is running all the time when AC is plugged in, when it's off fan works according to thermal trip points. i've disassembled and fixed my dsdt table but can't figure out what should i fix to stop the fan when temp is low
[12:16] <Flannel> peepsalot: Java is (now that its OSS), but correct.  There is no 64bit flash, because it's closed source, and macromedia hasn't released a 64bit client
[12:16] <mwe> blind: using right driver and all as well?
[12:16] <blind> mwe: yessir.
[12:17] <flyback> bartzitz,
[12:17] <flyback> p4 laptop?
[12:17] <Enverex> Can someone explain how to mount a Flash drive with permissions so that any normal user can write to it please?
[12:17] <bartzitz> flyback: Celeron M
[12:17] <mwe> blind: odd
[12:17] <flyback> that's a pentium M
[12:17] <flyback> it shouldn't have major heat issues
[12:17] <flyback> I dunno then sorry
[12:17] <blind> mwe: everything is the same as it was before (when i had it working), but somehow my xorg got borked and i had to fix it, and it hasn't worked since.
[12:17] <peepsalot> Flannel, a 64bit OS is not backwards compatible with 32bit?
[12:17] <Masin> Falados, connecting to any Windows share works
[12:17] <Shaun_Molder> And when I run x-session-manager, I get the message "gtk WARNING: cannot open display
[12:17] <flyback> I hope the pentium 4 and p4m and celeron4m suck ass
[12:17] <flyback> they are just too much heat
[12:17] <Flannel> peepsalot: no.  Well, you can run a 32bit environment within it
[12:17] <Flannel> !chroot | peepsalot
[12:17] <ubotu> peepsalot: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[12:17] <Falados> Masin: So samba can browse your network?
[12:18] <SeenD> i downloaded ndiswrapper 1.44 and i cant install it... when i type sudo make in the dir than it give errors... what do i do?
[12:18] <Shaun_Molder> I have a NVIDIA geForce 6600.
[12:18] <illriginal> Hey guys? How do I access (write+read) my USB thumb drive?...
[12:18] <bartzitz> flyback: well, it's acpi problem, because in windows the fan works ok
[12:18] <QuixoticJ> I lowered my resolution and I am no longer in extreme pain of the eyes.
[12:18] <mwe> blind: oh. This is a bit too late, but if you manage to make it work keep a backup so you will at least have something working in case it breaks. maybe there is a backup present?
[12:18] <illriginal> I tried going through properties to change the permissions, but it won't let me.
[12:18] <Cubey> Is the video lag problem on youtube within my system or the plugin? (P3 1GHz/640MB RAM/nVidia accelerated driver, confirmed so with glxinfo, unsure the exact card at the moment)
[12:18] <flyback> bartzitz,  oh ok I know linux works I think with 2003 and up series bio's when it comes to acpi
[12:18] <mwe> blind: /etc/X11/
[12:19] <flyback> I guess they finally standardized it
[12:19] <Linux21> i am having trouble with my sound card that worked fine in 6.06 but now i have 7.04 ?
[12:19] <flyback> but I am not that familiar with linux and acpi
[12:19] <blind> mwe: i have like 30 backups.. :\
[12:19] <CAL|Smeltn> ok I am at the scren that says Install the base system
[12:19] <CAL|Smeltn> which do I choose
[12:19] <flyback> it's been yrs since I rolled out a full desktop
[12:19] <flyback> sorry
[12:19] <SeenD> ive got 7.04 feisty fawn
[12:19] <Masin> Falados, how can I check? I just want to get sure ...
[12:19] <zabin> hey i just did umount /meda/sda2
[12:19] <mwe> blind: look at the date of modification
[12:19] <roller> illriginal: ls dev/sd*
[12:19] <zabin> how do i remount that?
[12:19] <blind> mwe: i kept doing fine tuning and backing up, im not even sure which is which anymore.
[12:19] <zabin> I canted the mount point to /mnt/sda2
[12:19] <jaded`> CAL|Smeltn are u installing WINE?
[12:19] <blind> mwe: my resolution has been like this for quite some time.
[12:19] <roller> and give me the result
[12:19] <mwe> blind: oh :|
[12:19] <fawaz> |chiz|, indygunfreak: thanx i works now after installing jre 4 mozilla
[12:19] <CAL|Smeltn> linux-generic  linux-image-generic  linux-image -2.6.20-15-generic or none
[12:19] <bartzitz> any ACPI experts?  my laptop fan is running all the time when AC is plugged in, when it's off fan works according to thermal trip points. i've disassembled and fixed my dsdt table but can't figure out what should i fix to stop the fan when temp is low
[12:19] <illriginal> roller, type this exactly: ls dev/sd*
[12:19] <CAL|Smeltn> no I am installing ubuntu with nothing else on the HD
[12:19] <bobbob1016> How can I plug a wireless USB dongle into ubuntu, and get set it as a wireless access point?
[12:20] <CAL|Smeltn> fresh HD
[12:20] <Falados> Masin: from the panel, Places >> Network >> Windows Network
[12:20] <bcardarella> Is there a quick way to clear a log file without deleting it?
[12:20] <The_Giver> so can someone check what they have under services checked off??
[12:20] <bcardarella> from command line
[12:20] <Piggyg1> does ubuntu have a c++ IDE that has a good debugger?
[12:20] <mwe> blind: well did it work when you first installed ubuntu?
[12:20] <roller> sorry, /dev/sd*
[12:20] <bobbob1016> assuming I have drivers for it
[12:20] <The_Giver> do you use both pwr management services or just one?
[12:20] <The_Giver> if so which
[12:20] <jaded`> CAL|Smeltn use the first option
[12:20] <blind> mwe: not out of the box, i had to change my sync/refresh
[12:20] <The_Giver> this is for any laptop users
[12:20] <illriginal> sudo: /dev/sda: command not found
[12:20] <jaded`> CAL|Smeltn install the base system
[12:20] <blind> mwe: i then wrote them down when it worked, and those are the ones im trying to use now
[12:20] <zabin> how do i remount something i just changed to mount point of and unmounted?
[12:20] <Masin> Falados, I see my workgroup but cannot browse it
[12:20] <CAL|Smeltn> yeah linux-generic is what I chose
[12:21] <bartzitz> The_Giver: as for me, i use kernel cpufreq modules
[12:21] <mwe> blind: hmm. I was going to suggest something that would reset it to the same as a fresh install would
[12:21] <roller> illriginal: sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/"mountpointname"
[12:21] <Falados> Masin: Odd, but I've never really shared printers from windows to linux, only from linux to windows
[12:21] <Cubey> Does anyone know if the video lag problem on youtube within my system or the plugin? (P3 1GHz/640MB RAM/nVidia accelerated driver, confirmed so with glxinfo, unsure the exact card at the moment) Running firefox, and Ubuntu 6.x (at 1024x768)
[12:21] <The_Giver> bartzitz, errr
[12:22] <blind> mwe: whats that? i tried doing the dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and even removed all resolutions except 1280x1024 and restarted X, it's still in 1024x768... somehow..
[12:22] <CAL|Smeltn> ok got an error again installing
[12:22] <vbabiy> hey guys whats up with the repo its going really slow
[12:22] <Falados> Masin: Perhaps someone is having your same problem, although I doubt is has anything to do with DNS at this point... Try using actual network IP addresses
[12:22] <vbabiy> for the past few day
[12:22] <CAL|Smeltn> Kernel package : 'linux-generic'
[12:22] <Falados> Masin: like \\192.168.1.23\PrinterName
[12:22] <mwe> blind: AFAIK dpkg-reconfigure -pcritical xserver-xorg would reset it to what a fresh install would
[12:22] <femfatale> Hi, I just upgraded to FF and my panels and login manager are gone
[12:22] <blind> mwe: hm. i suppose it wouldn't hurt to try, eh?
[12:22] <Mr680x0^Acer> well, I found my issue
[12:22] <Mr680x0^Acer> old graphics card
[12:23] <Falados> Masin: obviously the machine will need a static IP for that to work all the time =\
[12:23] <femfatale> I had themed panels and a custom login manager
[12:23] <mwe> blind: backup what you have, though.
[12:23] <zabin> roller: how do i change the mount point of my hard drive. Its currently mounted at /media/sda2
[12:23] <strabes> Falados Masin: it should be http://host'sipaddress/printers/printername
[12:23] <blind> mwe: sure thing :] 
[12:23] <CAL|Smeltn> I pressed ctrl alt f4
[12:23] <macogw> zabin: unmount it then remount it
[12:23] <CAL|Smeltn> and there is an entire screen of error
[12:23] <CAL|Smeltn> s
[12:23] <zabin> macogw: its not changing the mount point
[12:23] <Masin> strabes, http? are you sure?
[12:23] <ubuntu_> Does ubuntu support the sticky bit ?
[12:23] <mwe> blind: you will probably have to enter the timings, still, since you had to when you first installed ubuntu
[12:23] <roller> zabin: unmount and mount again.... sudo umount /media/sda2 ..... sudo mount xxxx
[12:23] <zabin> umount /media/sda2
[12:23] <vbabiy> Is there a reason for the Server slow down?
[12:24] <macogw> zabin: you have to tell it what the moutn point you want is
[12:24] <Falados> Masin: Most routers have the option of assigning an ip on a per-mac address basis, so the network card always gets the IP you want it to
[12:24] <macogw> otherwise it'll just make something up
[12:24] <strabes> Masin: you're trying to add a printer attached to a computer on your local network right?
[12:24] <blind> mwe, just did it, gonna re-input the timings and restart X, I'll let you know if it works.
[12:24] <roller> Mr680x0^Acer: what graphics card do you have?
[12:24] <Falados> Masin: perhaps just <IP>/printers/<printername>

[12:24] <ubuntu_> Does ubuntu support the sticky bit on files ?
[12:24] <zabin> macogw umount /media/sda2    then to mount it do sudo mount ??
[12:25] <roller> zabin: yap
[12:25] <zabin> macogw : i understand how to unmount
[12:25] <macogw> zabin: sudo mount /media/disknameyouwant /dev/sda2
[12:25] <peepsalot> if I install from a Ubuntu desktop cd, can I later create a RAID array?  I don't need the alternate CD right?
[12:25] <zabin> k
[12:25] <Mr680x0^Acer> roller: ATI Rage Mobility M4
[12:25] <macogw> zabin: if that doesn't work, switch the arguments
[12:25] <Luke9511> how do i install ati drivers without them breaking the xserver?
[12:25] <macogw> I never remember what order they go
[12:25] <strabes> macogw: you got it backwards. it's mount /dev/location /media/folder
[12:26] <macogw> strabes: yeah like I said, switch 'em if it doesn't work because I forget all the time
[12:26] <cafuego> peepsalot: Depends on whether you want the entire installation to be part of the raid array.
[12:26] <macogw> I only ever mount drives when I break something so bad I need a livecd to fix it :p
[12:26] <blind> mwe: no luck
[12:26] <yazeed> hi
[12:26] <roller> Mr680x0^Acer: yap, low vga ram... but try this: # beryl-manager|beryl-xgl --use-copy
[12:26] <yazeed> all
[12:26] <DOcteur> ds
[12:26] <blind> mwe: you're not here anymore. nevermind.
[12:26] <strabes> macogw: oh. pretty much every command goes "command source destination"
[12:26] <zabin> macogw when i do that i get this mount: /media/sda2/ is not a block device
[12:26] <yazeed> i need help
[12:26] <Mr680x0^Acer> roller: already removed Beryl
[12:26] <roller> ok
[12:26] <Nvening> Hi, i have a 1280 x 1024 monitor and this is listed as a supported resolution in xorg, furthermore it works with the closed source ATI driver, however using the xorg driver 1280 x 1024 is not given in "change resolution"  in preferences, any ideas how to fix this?
[12:26] <zabin> roller: i now get this when i do that mount: /media/sda2/ is not a block device
[12:26] <Mr680x0^Acer> roller: any other way to add themes?
[12:27] <strabes> zabin: switch the /dev and the /media parts of the command. He told you backwards
[12:27] <peepsalot> cafuego, ok, so alternate is only needed if / needs to be on RAID, right?
[12:27] <roller> yazeed: shoot
[12:27] <yazeed> how to long to root
[12:27] <SeenD> anybody?? idownloaded ndiswrapper and put it on my ubuntu system via usb thumbdrive. so i untarred it.... and when i sudo make i get all kinds of errors... i got ndiswrapper 1.44 and ubu 7.04
[12:27] <peepsalot> my RAID will not contain any system files, just media/documents
[12:27] <cafuego> peepsalot: Not at all, desktop can also do a custom partition (ie: raid) afaik. But if you want to add a raid array later on other disks, you can easily do that via mdadm at any time.
[12:28] <roller> Mr680x0^Acer: beryl and compiz are programs to get visual effects
[12:28] <zabin> doing this mount /dev/sda2 /media/sda2/

[12:29] <Masin> Falados, I just found out that all test pages were in the printer queue of the remote host but the printer didn't do anything. In the queue, the size of the print job was alway '64.0 kB / 7.24 MB'
[12:29] <yazeed> how to join to root
[12:29] <zabin> strables: mount /dev/sda2 /media/sda2/  is not changing the mount point under properties
[12:29] <Falados> Masin: So on your windows box, the printer had items queued? Or was this on Ubuntu
[12:30] <chump> yazeed: sudo <command>
[12:30] <Luke9511> when i install the ati drivers everything works but when i reboot it doesnt load kde or gdm and i have to reboot into recovery mode and edit xorg.conf to use mesa or vesa drivers to load kde or gdm, how do i fix it to where i can use ati drivers but have it not break the xserver?
[12:30] <femfatale> I'm really sad. My installation is fixable. But noone will help me, and I've fixed alot of what's wrong on my own already.
[12:30] <QuixoticJ> my azureus just crashes right when it opens can someone help me figure this out. Its the only torrent client that seems nice to me
[12:30] <femfatale> I just can't figure out the last piece.
[12:30] <Flannel> afief: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kompozer  Nvu is dead. Kompozer is its living fork.
[12:30] <ubuntu_> femfatale: What's the problem?
[12:30] <Mr680x0^Acer> actually, I'm not gonna bother with themes
[12:30] <Shaun_Molder> Can someone help me figure this out? I'm trying to install Dapper off the LIVE CD, but when it boots up, I get an X-Server failed to start error. I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and then x-session-manager. I got a GTK-WARNING: Cannot open screen error. What could causing this?
[12:30] <strabes> zabin: change it in the properties menu. the mount command isn't going to "change" anything
[12:30] <Mr680x0^Acer> I need help getting wifi working
[12:30] <ubuntu_> Flannel: Don't speak of what you don't knwo
[12:30] <Masin> Falados, it was on the Windows box
[12:30] <mwe> yazeed: sudo -i if you need a root prompt to do a lot as root
[12:30] <zabin> k
[12:30] <zabin> strabes but then how do i mount it again?
[12:30] <afief> Flannel, it's dead? how did that happen? on the website they said it's alive
[12:30] <genii> chump I'm pretty sure it's just stored in the session save. So when you exit and save session with whatever you like running it loads all that stuff automagically the next time
[12:31] <Falados> Masin: Hmm, so the jobs were queued, but windows wont print them... Maybe you selected the wrong driver?
[12:31] <levander> Has anyone successfully installed netbeans 5.5 from multiverse?  I'm getting some instructions to download a netbeans 5.5 install file, and place it in /tmp, then hit ENTER to try again.  I download the file, place it in /tmp, and hit ENTER, then I get the same instructions.
[12:31] <ubuntu_> afief: it isn't
[12:31] <strabes> zabin: you should be able to hot plug it...
[12:31] <Masin> Falados, it might be that there's some incompatibility between driver and printer :-/
[12:31] <zabin> strabes its an internel hard drive
[12:31] <aldin> i have HP drivers for wireless card which are .exe how do i extract them?
[12:31] <Flannel> afief: it hasn't been updated in ages.  which is why it was taken out of the repos
[12:31] <strabes> zabin: OH lol
[12:31] <strabes> zabin: that's easy. Just edit the location in your /etc/fstab
[12:31] <SeenD> @george i m not able to paste it... but in the beginning its looking for files in the utils dir of ndiswrapper but it can't find any files
[12:31] <ubuntu_> Flannel: nvu will Live!!!
[12:31] <Falados> Masin: What type of printer is it? Most printers are supported without much effor.
[12:31] <Masin> Falados, the printer is a PSC 1210 -- or 1200 series, but the driver's the same
[12:31] <mwe> aldin: sometimes uznip file.exe works. if not maybe wine will do it
[12:32] <afief> Flannel, weird though, it might be old but it does get the job done. I hope Kompozer is as good
[12:32] <Molluck`> Hi, is there a way to adjust the brightness, contrast, or gamma from within Ubuntu?
[12:32] <ubuntu_> Flannel: So what's the arguement for seamonkey :-P
[12:32] <RagingBull> Having with problem dcc with xchat2. the faq said it's an NAT issue and I need to set xchat.conf First DCC send port: 4990 Last DCC send port: 5000 so I do however when I start Xchat to take effect the new setting it rewrites to old setting
[12:32] <ubuntu_> afief: Nvu is being rewritten
[12:32] <georgy28> SeenD, : it help me not a lot ;)
[12:32] <Flannel> afief: Kompozer is based on Nvu
[12:32] <Flannel> ubuntu_: Seamonkey is under active development
[12:32] <RagingBull> I changed file permission to 400 however that doesn't work either
[12:32] <mwe> aldin: you are aware you need to use ndiswrapper if you want to use windows drivers in linux, though?
[12:32] <ubuntu_> Flannel: but not maintained by the person who did nvu
[12:32] <levander> Molluck`: my first guess would be xvidtune, xrandr is another one that messes with configuring X, but i've never tried it
[12:32] <aldin> mwe: i asked cause i saw that arial.exe times.exe are extracted somehow (when installing msttcorefonts)
[12:32] <ubuntu_> Flannel: He is working on Composer
[12:32] <afief> Flannel, well, I hope i won't need half the KDE libraries to run it
[12:32] <ubuntu_> Which is nvu2
[12:32] <SeenD> it wants to loadndisdriver.c but it gives errors
[12:32] <Falados> Masin: Well if the driver exists, then there shouldn't be a problem most of the time...
[12:33] <Falados> Masin: Does the windows machine need a login to print?
[12:33] <genii> Masin There are some issues with CUPS queuing jobs. Try to print direct if possible
[12:33] <Falados> Masin: Probably not the problem though, since it wouldn't be able to queue without the login either
[12:33] <jenkins420> Hello everyone
[12:33] <strabes> Masin: you can try going to http://localhost:631 to add your printer. That has many more drivers for some reason.
[12:33] <Masin> Falados, it might be of interest: printing from another Windows box to this printer works
[12:33] <mwe> aldin: yes. I think it's done with unzip or cabextract
[12:33] <yazeed> how to join to root
[12:33] <jackal> hello all
[12:33] <zabin> strabes: i edited that file but now how do i mount it?
[12:33] <strabes> zabin: sudo mount -a
[12:34] <eu> fg
[12:34] <georgy28> SeenD : it will diifcult to help you without the exact error, sorry !
[12:34] <Flannel> yazeed: you don't.  Use sudo instead
[12:34] <femfatale> I should have never upgraded
[12:34] <aldin> mwe: yeah i saw cabextract but dont know how to use it, i read man a bit...
[12:34] <eu> jj
[12:34] <strabes> zabin: that command reloads the /etc/fstab file
[12:34] <femfatale> I had no idea how badly everything would be screwed up
[12:34] <SeenD> i will try to copy it
[12:34] <zabin> strabes i get thie mount: mount point /mnt/sda2 does not exist
[12:34] <Falados> Masin: genii said CUPS has some problems with queuing, but I don't believe you are using CUPS to print, if you are using the Windows printer option (via smb)
[12:34] <strabes> zabin: sudo mkdir /mnt/sda2
[12:34] <jenkins420> How do I create a folder that all the users on my system can use for limewire/music and shared files?
[12:34] <ubuntu_> Flannel: I don't get the active dvelopment. So nvu gets taken out cause it's not worked on and Seamonkey gets taken out cause it is being worked on?
[12:34] <mwe> aldin: you tried unzip?
[12:34] <intelikey> i'm having an issue with grub when it's not 0x80  anyone care to discuss it ?
[12:34] <strabes> zabin: you have to create the directory first. the mount command does not create the directory.
[12:34] <jackal> where would be a good place to stat to get my desktop to run beryl
[12:35] <zabin> strabes: that worked but how do i get the hard drive icon off my desktop?
[12:35] <chump> thanks guys
[12:35] <ubuntu_> jackal: #ubuntu-effects
[12:35] <afief> jackal, www.beryl-project.org, in the wiki. although it's good to have your acceleration working first
[12:35] <strabes> zabin: there shouldn't be an icon on your desktop if it's set to mount in /mnt instead of /media
[12:35] <QuixoticJ> my azureus just crashes right when it opens can someone help me figure this out. Its the only torrent client that seems nice to me
[12:35] <Masin> Falados, I'll try nonetheless -- meanwhile, I'm quite desperate ;-)
[12:35] <aldin> mwe: no, just sec
[12:35] <zabin> there is
[12:35] <jenkins420> How do I create a folder that all the users on my system can use for limewire/music and shared files?
[12:36] <strabes> zabin: you can disable ALL device icons on your desktop with an option in gconf-editor.
[12:36] <strabes> jenkins420: just chmod it to 766
[12:36] <zabin> how do i get to that?
[12:36] <jenkins420> alright.
[12:36] <jenkins420> thanks
[12:36] <genii> Falados The remote box may be using any system, but if the printer is setup on the local box with CUPS then no queue is preferable. There are issues where the first job gets stuck and no others get to print
[12:36] <intelikey> strabes not 766
[12:36] <jenkins420> intelikey: what then?
[12:36] <strabes> zabin: run "gconf-editor" and browse to apps/nautilus and then somewhere in there's an option "show_desktop" and disable that
[12:36] <intelikey> strabes then only the owner could use it
[12:36] <intelikey> strabes 777
[12:37] <Falados> genii: but the jobs get queued on the remote system just fine, however they wont print
[12:37] <femfatale> can anyone tell me how to get my login manager and panels back to normal?
[12:37] <mwe> aldin you are trying to get ndiswrapper to work, I guess?

[12:38] <Cubey> ubuntu_: how do i check the plugin version?
[12:38] <genii> Falados: By local box I mean the box the printer is directly attached to. In other words, wherever the printer is physically, the box which directly controls it should use no queuing if possible. The clients can use any system to print, the issue is not on their end
[12:38] <SeenD> in pastebin the website i can post the entire errorcode but it wants a syntax... george

[12:42] <femfatale> Hold on, just a second
[12:42] <intelikey> jenkins420 a chmod 1777  would be even better i think   then everyone could create files and dirs in there but would own what ever they made and no one else could mess with what someone else made.  thus readonly access to things they didn't own.      just a  thought.

[12:43] <finetuch> dose k3b burn dvds for dvd players? and do i need acodec or plugg
[12:43] <Cubey> ubuntu_: you would think a 1GHz CPU should be able to handle it, and the video card. I have no problem with local AVIs
[12:43] <roller> I just always used sudo with the nautilus
[12:43] <Masin> Falados, genii, I just see that CUPS shows an error or something similar: "Can not get the ticket cache for masin"

[12:43] <SeenD> georgy28... i dont know... i just did a clean install of feisty fawn
[12:43] <macogw> finetuch: yes it does but you'll probably need regular dvd codecs if you don't have the ones to even play themyet
[12:43] <ubuntu_> Cubey: It's probably bandwidth then
[12:43] <ubuntu_> Or Firefox :(

[12:44] <finetuch> macogw- no i cant play them either where do i find them and thankx
[12:44] <Flannel> yazeed: You don't need your root account.  "sudo [command] " will run that command as root.

[12:45] <SeenD> georgy28, i havent got a internet connection on that computer so can i download it somewhere??
[12:45] <double-H> i have a question: i am new with linux/ubuntu and i want to try it first with a live-cd... ok i downloaded the file and burned it on cd. but i will not start after i restart windows. what is wrong?
[12:45] <valdeir> gaim ou amsn?
[12:45] <femfatale> ubuntu_: I'm on my windows pc because ubuntu won't connect to the internet
[12:45] <macogw> double-H: check your bios settings and make sure cd drive is set to first boot
[12:45] <georgy28> Seend : there are a lots of files, it better you got a connection
[12:45] <finetuch> ubotu: thank you all
[12:46] <macogw> double-H: also, make sure you burned it as an image, not just burning the .iso as a single file
[12:46] <ubuntu_> femfatale: ah ok
[12:46] <valdeir> gaim or amsn?
[12:46] <davef> double-H: does it try, or does it just go back to windows?
[12:46] <roller> and you have the mighty power of root
[12:46] <ubuntu_> How did you know there was no .xsessions then?
[12:46] <genii> Masin It looks like this printer does Postscript. Have you tried setting it up as a generic postcript printer. Then on the side which it is connected, if Windoze, no spooling (Print direct to printer) Or if CUPS then no queue (Raw print)
[12:46] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about thank you all - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:46] <femfatale> No .xsessions? I have it up, I just have no login manager or menus
[12:46] <SeenD> doh
[12:46] <femfatale> I can still start up x..
[12:46] <ezer> flannel ubuntu_  thanks  but the question is in relation with ubuntu also.. whhats the diference between isntalllink studio or installling traditional ubuntu and the packages relative to media included in studio ?
[12:46] <georgy28> SeenD : you can do it here : http://packages.ubuntu.com/ but you have to download  the dependency too
[12:46] <macogw> valdeir: what are you asking about IM clients about?
[12:46] <mwe> double-H: you should boot the CD not windows
[12:46] <CheshireViking> double-H, is your computer set to boot from cd in the bios?
[12:47] <Flannel> double-H: if you (in windows) open the CD, what do you see?  the iso file? or a bunch of files?
[12:47] <ubuntu_> ezer: as of right now I don't know. #ubuntustudio would
[12:47] <Falados> Masin: Sorry, I must go, I wish you good luck though
[12:47] <mwe> double-H: it's not meant to be run from windows rather to be run instead of windows
[12:47] <SeenD> dependency?
[12:47] <ezer> ubuntu_ ok
[12:47] <ubuntu_> ezer: ask there it's just as valid and much more likely to get noticed
[12:47] <ezer> ok
[12:47] <macogw> mwe: he said he restarted...thats not trying to run it in windows :p
[12:47] <Masin> Falados, thank you for your help
[12:47] <Mr680x0^Acer> my wireless card is supported
[12:47] <puff> Device drivers?  Anybody?
[12:47] <Flannel> ezer: I have no idea.  Youreally should ask in that channel
[12:47] <ubuntu_> femfatale: X won't start?
[12:47] <Mr680x0^Acer> why ain't it working?
[12:47] <georgy28> Seend : sometime a package need another package to work
[12:47] <femfatale> ubuntu_: Is there some way to just force gdm to use the default stuff not my custom stuff that messes it up?
[12:47] <Masin> genii, I'll try
[12:48] <Mr680x0^Acer> it's a Linksys WPC11 v4
[12:48] <ubuntu_> femfatale: sure
[12:48] <georgy28> SeenD: I think, it's real better to get a connection at you box ;)
[12:48] <SeenD> this just sucks... thx for helping georgy28... i will try this weekend to get a wire connected...
[12:48] <femfatale> ubuntu_: I've tried just reinstalling a ton of stuff with aptitude but no go :/
[12:48] <genii> Masin Almost all HP will print well using postscript driver
[12:48] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: what chipset is that?
[12:48] <femfatale> ubuntu_: How do I do it?
[12:48] <macogw> puff: drivers for what?
[12:49] <mwe> macogw: I guess "It won't start after I restart windows" confused me ;)
[12:49] <georgy28> SeenD : good luck
[12:49] <Falstius> how do I use a serial port gamepad with an emulator?
[12:49] <ubuntu_> femfatale: just move your custom files to a new name
[12:49] <ubuntu_> gdm will ignore them
[12:49] <ubuntu_> femfatale: What custom stuff did you do?
[12:49] <SurfnKid> hi guys i have a bit of a problem could someone help me, its important, i dont know what gnome-session-save is
[12:49] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: Realtek
[12:49] <femfatale> A custom login manager, a theme for my windows
[12:50] <Flannel> femfatale: backup your config, then "completely remove" gdm (thats --purge with apt-get) and then reinstall it.  Hmm.  you might need to purge/reinstall feisty-gdm-themes, or any other themeish files like that.  but hte purge is the important part.  If you knew which files you edited, I could tell you which packages
[12:50] <SeenD> georgy28: u know... im not sure but when I had a liveCD almost a year back... it recognised my wireless linksys pcmcia card without problems... not sure it was ubuntu though, but pretty sure.... isnt that strange...??
[12:50] <femfatale> ubuntu_: hold on, I'll find it for you
[12:50] <evan__> I just installed Amarok in which I have no sound, i tried XMMS which i have no sound in either, everything else works.
[12:50] <SurfnKid> but everytime I start the system it starts the session with "THE PANEL" I see evverything back on the desktop, how can I remove this indefinitely
[12:50] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: did you check the Restricted Drivers Manager?
[12:50] <hammedhaaret> Hi... i've reasontly installed feisty. and after a while it started booting really really slowly... we're talking the load bar stopping a third of the way for several minutes before it shows the loginscreen... anyone able to help?? Samus_Aran are you there??
[12:50] <puff> macogw: bluetooth. Or more to the point, where is the general device driver manager?
[12:50] <ubuntu_> femfatale: tell Flannel which files
[12:50] <ubuntu_> I have to run :(
[12:50] <femfatale> ubuntu_: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Avio-GDM?content=37395 <---login manager
[12:50] <strabes> evan__: does amarok play mp3s or does it complain?
[12:50] <macogw> puff: I don't think there is a general device driver manager
[12:50] <Flannel> femfatale: actually, just use "dpkg -S [file] " to know which packages
[12:50] <SurfnKid> how can i unsave my session???????????????
[12:51] <tokyo25> when i run the 7.04 live cd on a computer. the wireless network app in the top right corner recognises my wifi stick ( i think) and fins my network, but wont connect, any ideas?
[12:51] <chamunks> Hey does anyone know how to activate sound for games n such for wine?
[12:51] <puff> macogw: I found one tutorial for breezy that said it was System/Administration/Device Manager, but I'm on feisty and I see no such listing.
[12:51] <macogw> puff: bluez-utils is part of a default install
[12:51] <SurfnKid> :(
[12:51] <georgy28> Seend  it's very strange ..
[12:51] <Evan_> i don't know
[12:51] <macogw> puff: breezy is years old
[12:51] <femfatale> ubuntu_: sorry, I
[12:51] <puff> macogw: Yeah, I know.
[12:51] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: it says "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers"
[12:51] <arceye> is there any way i can change the ubuntu logo when my pc boots to be different ( meaning different colour scheme )
[12:51] <puff> macogw: As I said, I'm on feisty.
[12:51] <femfatale> ubuntu_: 'm still a bit of a newb, dunno what that is
[12:51] <SeenD> well guys... good night... thx for your support and ideas and tips!!!
[12:51] <puff> macogw: I'm trying to get the built-in thinkpad bluetooth device enabled.
[12:51] <ubuntu_> femfatale: Sure :-) let Flannel see that link
[12:51] <strabes> arceye: that's called a "bootsplash"
[12:51] <macogw> puff: it's called "hardware information" now but you can't install drivers through it....definitely couldn't in dapper either
[12:51] <femfatale> Flannel: http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Avio-GDM?content=37395 <---login manager
[12:51] <macogw> puff: bluez-utils is installed by default, you just need a GUI
[12:51] <SeenD> exit
[12:51] <genii> SurfnKid:  Just rearrange things how you like it then resave the session. Then set not to automatically save session after that and it will always load how you want it
[12:51] <mwe> arceye: yes, but it's somewhat complicated
[12:52] <arceye> ok can you tell me where i change it ?
[12:52] <evan__> strabes: it plays the mp3's but no sound
[12:52] <intelikey> !usplash > arceye
[12:52] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: it says "Your hardware does not need any restricted drivers"
[12:52] <puff> macogw: hcitool isn't seeing the bluetooth device. It sees the usb dongle bluetooth when I plug it in, but not the built-in bluetooth.
[12:52] <tri3axe_> heyas.. need some help with my nvidia driver here.. i have tried manual and "Envy" install.. but upon reboot ..i just get the x server couldnt start ..etc.. but it works if i edit xorg.conf to use "nv" instead of "nvidia"   My xorg.conf : http://pastebin.ca/493763
[12:52] <macogw> puff: try bluez-gnome or kdebluetooth depending which one you use
[12:52] <double-H> Ok thank to all first... i found the problem. it try to set my bios new. if it wont work i come back :D  BYE
[12:52] <Flannel> femfatale: How does that work?  You unzip that file where?
[12:52] <Flannel> femfatale: and how do you select it?

[12:53] <SurfnKid> :(
[12:53] <chamunks> anyone know anything about sound support in wine?
[12:53] <SurfnKid> could someone help
[12:53] <arceye> on way now
[12:53] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: so, what do I do now?
[12:53] <yazeed> i can.t copy file  in hard
[12:53] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: did you check the forums at all?
[12:53] <femfatale> ubuntu_: !!!! I just got everything back!
[12:53] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: and what model is it
[12:53] <Mr680x0^Acer> uh, not really
[12:53] <roller> what's the problem SurfnKid?
[12:53] <femfatale> ubuntu_: I killed gdm while I was on my desktop, and restarted it
[12:53] <Mr680x0^Acer> Linksys WPC11 v4, Realtek chipset
[12:53] <Quintin> chamunks: /join #wine.  sound works fine for me... probably want to do $ winecfg and set sound to 22050 , OSS, emulation
[12:53] <Cubey> sigh, no luck...
[12:53] <SurfnKid> but everytime I start the system it starts the session with "THE PANEL" I see evverything back on the desktop, how can I remove this indefinitely

[12:54] <ubuntu_> femfatale: Glad to hear :)
[12:54] <chamunks> Quintin, thanks
[12:54] <femfatale> ubuntu_: I did this before once, but when I reboot it'll be back to normal
[12:54] <Cubey> must be the cpu speed but hell it worked fine on XP pro, should be decent on ubuntu
[12:54] <femfatale> ubuntu_: so my problem isn't over
[12:54] <ubuntu_> femfatale: ok ask Flannel as before I have to run
[12:54] <femfatale> ubuntu_: Okay. Thank you for your help.. :D

[12:56] <nexous> Is there an alternative besides samba?
[12:56] <femfatale> Flannel: too bad though, because the login manager works great again.. heh, but I'm more worried about it working for good then looking pretty
[12:56] <evan__> strabes: you there?

[12:56] <roller> SurfnKid: Yap, your desktop was saved that way, close all programs and go to System > Preferences > Sessions > Session Options > Save the current session
[12:56] <Cubey> ubuntu_: That's probably true. But more bloated than XP? I get better performance out of XP than I ever do from linux, for some reason...

[12:58] <SurfnKid> roller, there's no option for Save Current Session
[12:58] <Zoffix> Oh, so it should be listed there. Ok, thanks.
[12:58] <macogw> Zoffix: or type: sudo apt-get remove <nameofpackage>
[12:58] <SurfnKid> roller, you mean Automatically Save changes to session?

[12:58] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[12:58] <Yorkshire> can anyone help me with an instalation problem?
[12:58] <evan__> I just installed Amarok in which I have no sound, i tried XMMS which i have no sound in either, everything else works.
[12:58] <yazeed> help me
[12:58] <yazeed> /
[12:58] <roller> SurfnKid: no, the button below
[12:58] <genii> gcosmin_: OK so Feisty. I will try to find a good tutorial for you
[12:58] <Masin> genii, I tried it -- and it doesn't work. To be more specific: I disabled spooling on the Windows box and set up the printer as a generic PS printer on the Ubuntu side of my malaise
[12:58] <yazeed> help me
[12:58] <roller> that flag will save the desktop in every shutdown
[12:58] <intelikey> Flannel using   "bootas=0x80" and bouncing to that disk doesn't work.    so i thought someone might care to discuss it   but obviously not.
[12:59] <gcosmin_> genii i have one
[12:59] <VSpike> Anyone got any idea on this kernel log? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21354/
[12:59] <gcosmin_> genii but ge give me a error
[12:59] <SurfnKid> roller, Im on the sessions right, there's 3 tabs Im on the first tab
[12:59] <yazeed> help me
[12:59] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: I have the driver now, what do I do with it?
[12:59] <Masin> genii, the error message is '"/usr/lib/cups/backend/smb failed"'
[12:59] <VSpike> Machine refuses to access CDROM, and locks up periodically, seems to be when running X
[12:59] <genii> Masin Ah, at least that ios informative now
[12:59] <Masin> genii, it is?#
[12:59] <VSpike> At command line it seems stable... so far
[01:00] <jungo> Can anyone explain to me how to get my NTFS partition (mounted at /media/windows/) to show up in 'Places>Computer'?
[01:00] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: use ndiswrapper like the thread says
[01:00] <roller> SurfnKid: 3rd tab... the only button
[01:00] <Mr680x0^Acer> what's that?
[01:00] <Mr680x0^Acer> sorry for my n00bishness
[01:00] <gcosmin_> genii http://pastebin.ca/493802
[01:00] <genii> Masin Yes, it is letting us know that the smb print part has some issue
[01:00] <nick_> anyone know how to edit what automatically shows up in the places sidebar in naut
[01:00] <Mo0oSaH> !bin
[01:00] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:00] <SurfnKid> roller, um, there's no button on that tab, it says "additional Startup Programs"
[01:00] <genii> gcosmin_: OK I will look. Have some patience please :)
[01:00] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: it's already installed, but I don't have an annoying wireless card so I haven't had to use the command line way, but you can install ndisgtk and use that
[01:00] <yazeed> i have big problem
[01:01] <Mo0oSaH> is there any gui utility that mounts bin cue files
[01:01] <usr13> I'm trying to share the printer - having no luck.
[01:01] <roller> what version do you have?
[01:01] <gcosmin_> genii thanx a lot
[01:01] <genii> Masin Back shortly, helping another also
[01:01] <SurfnKid> edgy
[01:01] <genii> intelikey Heh :) Thanks
[01:01] <Shaun_Molder> Still no luck with my XServer errors.
[01:01] <chamunks> Quintin, noone rly in wine
[01:01] <chamunks> Quintin, noone rly in #wine
[01:01] <SurfnKid> roller, edgy
[01:01] <usr13> I told firestarter to accept incoming traffic on port 631
[01:01] <jungo> Can anyone explain to me how to get my NTFS partition (mounted at /media/windows/) to show up in 'Places>Computer'?
[01:01] <macogw> yazeed: stop asking for help and just ask the question
[01:02] <Quintin> chamunks, what is the issue?
[01:02] <charly_> hello
[01:02] <roller> ok, i'm running feisty:P
[01:02] <Jst_Me> Thanks for that help macogw
[01:02] <genii> gcosmin_: Try for now instead of dkpg -i     dpkg-reconfigure
[01:02] <Quintin> chamunks, oh, it's #winehq, not #wine.
[01:02] <SurfnKid> roller, :P
[01:02] <usr13> Under global settings, I have "Share Printers" selected.
[01:02] <nexous> When I go to connect to my share from my windows pc, I have authentication troubles accessing the linux share. Anyone have any ideas?
[01:02] <genii> gcosmin_: Also I would give you a lecture about running as root and using sudo instead but I have not the heart :)
[01:02] <usr13> What else?
[01:03] <chamunks> Quintin, well i get no sound in games at all or in winamp or any sound software for that matter
[01:03] <fiveiron> can k3b do gapless audio cd's?
[01:03] <roller> close every app, go to another shell (eg. Ctrl Alf F1) and run # gnome-session-save
[01:03] <nick_> anyone know how to edit what automatically shows up in the places sidebar in nautilus
[01:03] <SurfnKid> roller, ok brb
[01:03] <usr13> port 631 is open.... so....?
[01:03] <Quintin> chamunks: did you run winecfg?
[01:03] <macogw> jungo: when you're inside a nautilus window, you should be able to just drag the name of the directory from the top down into the left-side pane
[01:03] <gcosmin_> genii http://pastebin.ca/493806
[01:03] <usr13> Any ideas?
[01:03] <femfatale> Is there anyway to backup current settings you have that work?
[01:03] <usr13> Is cups broken?
[01:03] <crossout> anybody happen to know were the radio stations in totem are stored? I have a bunch I want to transfer from a different account :)
[01:04] <georgy28> usr: look in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and change the line Listen localhost:631 to Listen 631 and then the other line Browsing On then restart cups
[01:04] <baxter_kylie> Hi. Need a little help. My graphic's card has been legacy'ed by nvidia so the non-legacy drivers in the fiesty repos don't work anymore and the fiesty legacy drivers aren't at a high enough version to catch the card. What can I do?
[01:04] <chamunks> Quintin, i ran it and did what you said was your config earlier
[01:04] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: it closes as soon as I open it :(
[01:04] <bziobnic> what does "Package gpm is not available, but is referred to by another package" mean? How can I tell which other package refers to gpm?
[01:04] <Quintin> chamunks: ... scroll up.
[01:04] <SurfnKid> roller: doesnt let me save, says cant open screen or something
[01:04] <nick_> baxter_kylie: use envy to install graphics driver
[01:05] <jungo> macogw: thanks for the tip :D
[01:05] <georgy28>  usr13 : look in /etc/cups/cupsd.conf and change the line Listen localhost:631 to Listen 631 and then the other line Browsing Off to Browsing On then restart cups
[01:05] <usr13> Anyone konw why printer won't share?
[01:05] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: run it from the command line and see if it spits out an error
[01:05] <Masin> genii, thank you for all your help -- but I've to leave, my bed's calling for me and I have to obey ;-)
[01:05] <Comrade-Sergei> how can you make ubuntu have a windowsesque start button?
[01:05] <usr13> georgy28:  i'll gtry that.
[01:05] <Filthpig> hi, where can I make a suggestion to new things to include in ubuntu?
[01:05] <chamunks> Quintin, yeah im in winehq just figured you might know
[01:05] <georgy28> usr : and the client too ?
[01:05] <Mr680x0^Acer> how do I do that, macogw?
[01:05] <SurfnKid> roller: cannot open display thats it
[01:05] <Mr680x0^Acer> what's the command to run it?
[01:05] <baxter_kylie> nick_: I don't have a gui yet nor do I expect one soon... (all of this is being put together over ssh -- after I get a working X server I'll set up vnc)
[01:05] <Masin> genii, maybe we'll see us again here another day -- good night
[01:05] <genii> gcosmin_: Is the user nx on your system being used for some regular user? If not you can then just delete them and rerun the dpkg -i part
[01:06] <paul__> can someone help me with Azureus installation
[01:06] <genii> Masin OK... sorry not to help more atm
[01:06] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: right click on the panel and go to "add to panel" and pick "main menu" then remove (by right clicking) the menu bar from the panel
[01:06] <crossout> anybody know were the radio stations in totem are saved?
[01:06] <SurfnKid> roller: brb
[01:06] <paul__> I have the folder in /opt
[01:06] <paul__> but I can't run it
[01:06] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: just type it in the terminal
[01:06] <Filthpig> I just thought that being able to mount a *.iso by simply right-clicking it and choose "mount" could be very handy
[01:06] <Mr680x0^Acer> type what?
[01:06] <roller> SurfnKid: hold a bit
[01:06] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: type ndisgtk
[01:06] <usr13> georgy28:  I see "Listen 631"  and  "Listen /var/run/cups/cups.sock"
[01:06] <Quintin> chamunks: I already told you .. doesn't your client have search ?  OSS, 22050 sampling, "emulation"
[01:06] <usr13> Anything else I can look for?
[01:06] <sock> I really need to change my name
[01:06] <macogw> Filthpig: go to launchpad.net and put it in the blueprints for ubuntu
[01:06] <SurfnKid> roller: ok im here
[01:06] <evan__> I just installed Amarok in which I have no sound, i tried XMMS which i have no sound in either, everything else works.
[01:06] <Mr680x0^Acer> got an error
[01:07] <georgy28> usr13 : ok , and Browsing on ? on the server and client side ?
[01:07] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: ok, what's the error?  and use the pastebin
[01:07] <macogw> !pastebin
[01:07] <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)
[01:07] <genii> gcosmin_: EG: userdel nx
[01:07] <usr13> One interesting thing, when I type lpstat and hit enter, nothing happens.
[01:07] <Mr680x0^Acer> AttributeError:  'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'
[01:07] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, i cannot right click that
[01:07] <gcosmin_> genii i tink it is but i don't know how to delete it
[01:07] <paul__> anyone help me with an Azureus install?
[01:07] <usr13>  and Browsing on... just a sec.
[01:07] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, oh i got it
[01:08] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: AttributeError:  'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'
[01:08] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, now how do i rid of the other bar and merge them into one?
[01:08] <Pelo> mister_roboto, are you there ?  crontab / gdesklets problems solved .  I found a couple of threads about it in the forums
[01:08] <georgy28> usr13 : do you need to do it on the other computer too
[01:08] <usr13> Browsing was off
[01:08] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: try typing sudo ndisgtk
[01:08] <crossout> hi, do you guys know were to extract saved radio stations on a different account?
[01:08] <LadyNikon> im at an ubuntu users group meeting :p
[01:08] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: that's what I did
[01:08] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: right click the menu bar and hit "remove from panel"
[01:08] <usr13> georgy28: (now set to Browsing on)
[01:08] <paul__> anyone help me with an Azureus install? Please private message..
[01:08] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: did you do it with sudo before or not?
[01:08] <Mr680x0^Acer> both
[01:08] <Mr680x0^Acer> without sudo once
[01:08] <georgy28> usr13 : restart cups too
[01:08] <macogw> hi LadyNikon!
[01:09] <Mr680x0^Acer> said I needed sudo or root priveledges
[01:09] <LadyNikon> paul__: why not ask your question.
[01:09] <femfatale> is there anyway to back up current working settings?
[01:09] <genii> gcosmin_: you should probably use instead  userdel -r nx                      to remove any remnants in fact. Then do the dpkg -i <debnamehere>     part again
[01:09] <LadyNikon> maybe someone will help know how to help you ;)
[01:09] <macogw> LadyNikon: assume you're the same one from #linuxchix?
[01:09] <femfatale> When I reboot, these settings will be gone
[01:09] <paul__> I can't get Azureus to run
[01:09] <Pelo> LadyNikon, do you have little ships that say how long you've been off windows ?
[01:09] <LadyNikon> macogw: :)
[01:09] <paul__> it's in /opt/azureus
[01:09] <macogw> paul__: try from the command line and see what the error is
[01:09] <LadyNikon> Pelo: what?
[01:09] <deCon> is there such thing as java runtime 1.7 ??? i know it exists, but is there a linux version?
[01:09] <Quintin> LadyNikon, ORLY.  Where at?
[01:09] <Pelo> paul__,  try asking in #azureus-support
[01:09] <LadyNikon> Quintin: columbia md
[01:10] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: it says that even when you type sudo?
[01:10] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, wow that was easier than i thought it was going to be
[01:10] <crossout> do you guys use totem much? I'm wondering were are the radio stations stored?
[01:10] <Quintin> femfatale, cp -ra
[01:10] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: no, it said that when I didn't use sudo, I got the error when I did use sudo
[01:10] <voltagex> I've installed the NVidia drivers manually from the website, same problem with nvidia-glx-new "Failed to initialize DAC HAL" - Geforce 8500GT PCI-E card.
[01:10] <Quintin> deCon, search the web, thanks.  sun.java.com *maybe*
[01:10] <shinygerbil> what's the easiest way for dhclient NOT to rewrite /etc/resolv.conf every time I connect?
[01:10] <SurfnKid> roller: i found the sessions file under .gnome2
[01:10] <Quintin> LadyNikon, but .. what if I run debian?  I'm not invited?  :(
[01:11] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: h/o lemme install ndisgtk and see if I get the error too
[01:11] <Quintin> shinygerbil, make it readonly.
[01:11] <SurfnKid> roller: its as if it has commands to restore that session i saved back then
[01:11] <LadyNikon> Quintin: linux group is on wednesdays :p
[01:11] <Quintin> LadyNikon, :"(
[01:11] <SurfnKid> roller: i wonder how i can default it or restore the previous session
[01:11] <Quintin> I have thought of starting a LUG.  I'm not sure what the point would be though
[01:11] <shinygerbil> Quintin, I did think of that, but never tried it. Ta ;)
[01:11] <deCon> Quintin: thanks smartass, or is it smartguy? ...either way
[01:12] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: no error for me :/ I can't reproduce your bug
[01:12] <roller> SurfnKid... i'm trying to see the commands with gnome-session-save --help
[01:12] <Quintin> deCon, both.  learn to help yourself.
[01:12] <usr13> /etc/init.d/cupsys restart
[01:12] <SurfnKid> roller: ok, check man gnome-session that has info about the sesssions file but im unsure what to do
[01:12] <evan__> I just installed Amarok in which I have no sound, i tried XMMS which i have no sound in either, everything else works.
[01:13] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, how do i ser a custom "start: button now
[01:13] <duelboot> evan, laptop?
[01:13] <evan__> nope
[01:13] <evan__> but its usb sound
[01:13] <evan__> sound works with GAIM
[01:13] <evan__> and with the default player
[01:13] <duelboot> sorry can't help evan__
[01:13] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: the image?
[01:13] <usr13> So, it's "cupsys" now?
[01:13] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, i guess
[01:13] <georgy28> usr13 : yes
[01:14] <genii> gcosmin_: Able to install the package yet?
[01:14] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, dont i have to play in gconf for that
[01:14] <macogw> Comrade-Sergei: I hope not *shudder* it's as bad as the windows registry!
[01:14] <Quintin> deCon, it's a lot more efficient to find answers yourself with google.  especially to such easy questions
[01:14] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, i found it in the registry but i dont know how to add a new one?
[01:14] <Pelo> deCon, what is your question ( and I 'm not promissing I will be able to answer)
[01:15] <Quintin> Evan_, is it using ALSA or OSS?  You'll need to configure Amarok to output to whatever sound module you're using
[01:15] <evan__> ALSA
[01:15] <duelboot> Quintin, what is easy to you may not be easy to others
[01:15] <Quintin> Evan_, Have you looked at the sound output settings in amarok?
[01:15] <deCon> Quintin: much more appropriate answer, thanks..on top of it
[01:15] <abd> hello , how traceroute ?? (tracepath)?
[01:15] <deCon> Pelo, i was just looking to install 1.7 java, or if its possible?
[01:15] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: I had bad drivers installed
[01:16] <olrrai> /exit
[01:16] <Comrade-Sergei> macogw, i got it i think
[01:16] <deCon> Pelo: specifically runtime 7...its for a class
[01:16] <Quintin> duelboot, anyone that can't search google really shouldn't be trying to admin a linux machine. :)
[01:16] <roller> SurfnKid.. just use the last resource.. turn on the "save session" flag you mentioned and reboot with no open apps, then take off the flag...... and don't tell anyone about the method :s
[01:16] <Pelo> deCon,  from the repos it is not  the current version is 1.6,  I don't know that there is either a package or a source code for it available,  the sun site still tries to install 1.5 when you try to get it from them
[01:16] <Flannel> deCon: I don't think 1.7 exists... unless thats 6.1?
[01:17] <Flannel> deCon, Pelo, 6 is in feisty, and edgy-backports
[01:17] <SurfnKid> roller: so the flag is on now?
[01:17] <Quintin> abd, man traceroute?  It's similar to windows
[01:17] <duelboot> Quintin, we're all entitled to opinions...I know what you are saying, but it just needs to be said in a nice way....This is the Ubuntu channel afterall...again, I hear what you are saying
[01:17] <RememberPOL> Hi..I enabled VNC with vino-preferences but when trying to connect with vncviewer, i get this error: vncviewer: ConnectToTcpAddr: connect: Connection refused ....any ideas?
[01:17] <SurfnKid> roller: how do i take off the flag?
[01:17] <Quintin> RememberPOL, On the machine where the server is running, open a terminal and try to telnet to port 5900
[01:17] <deCon> Flannel, interesting..because the WebCT website asks for a more up to date version than "1.6", but it also says it is incompatible with linux
[01:18] <Quintin> RememberPOL, that is, telnet localhost 5900
[01:18] <LadyNikon> so.. does gnome hate irssi in xterm
[01:18] <LadyNikon> or does xterm hate irssi?
[01:18] <LadyNikon> cause now i cant alt # at all.
[01:18] <roller> SurfnKid: can't you take it off by clicking on it?
[01:18] <RememberPOL> Quintin: telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection refused
[01:18] <Pelo> deCon,  maybe that site is refering to pluggins , try installing those and try again
[01:18] <macogw> LadyNikon: well gnome lets me irssi in gnome-terminal...
[01:18] <SurfnKid> roller: well i ran it from the gnome terminal "gnome-session-save"
[01:18] <Quintin> RememberPOL, screwy.  You set vino-preferences up right?  Check that again, then maybe logout / login
[01:18] <LadyNikon> macogw: *cough* what? ;)
[01:18] <sebas_> is there any chance that if there's no swap partition the Live CD will run slowly?
[01:19] <SurfnKid> then on the desktop a window appeared, "Your Session has been Saved"
[01:19] <Quintin> gnome-terminal is *crap*
[01:19] <RememberPOL> Quintin: Might it help to note that I'm logged in as root via SSH so there's probably no actual desktop session running...?
[01:19] <ryan__> Quick question... I want to setup a decent VM to test writing a website. I would like linux / apache / mysql / php and perhaps ruby.. Idealy I would like it to have a web-based administration tool like cpannel. Are packages available in Ubuntu to do this?
[01:19] <Quintin> Terminal ftw !
[01:19] <SurfnKid> roller: thats it, i restarted, and the session was back to normal
[01:19] <cein> gnome-terminal is OK
[01:19] <Flannel> deCon: sounds like WebCT is just being screwy.
[01:19] <macogw> LadyNikon: and the usual lag when trying to get on #linuxchix is there when I use irssi in xterm...
[01:19] <Flannel> !java | deCon, this page might help
[01:19] <ubotu> deCon, this page might help: 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
[01:19] <evan__> Quintin: i checked the settings and changed it to alsa but its still not working
[01:19] <RememberPOL> Quintin: I was hoping I could get a full login prompt from vncviewer but I guess I have to use NX to do what I'm trying?
[01:19] <roller> SurfnKid: at last :p
[01:19] <LadyNikon> macogw: heh
[01:19] <Quintin> ryan__, there is "webmin" .. not sure if that's what you want.  it's for machine admin stuff, not like managing web users
[01:19] <LadyNikon> macogw: i heard there is a keybinding to use
[01:19] <macogw> LadyNikon: except that the lag is being a bit longer than usual I think...
[01:20] <roller> i hope no one noticed :D
[01:20] <LadyNikon> but i cant remember it :(
[01:20] <_Ahti> !anything
[01:20] <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.
[01:20] <SurfnKid> roller: what i mean by normal, is the session was back saved, not the way I usually have it when i log in as default
[01:20] <Zach_> hey guys, can anyone help me with NTFS configuration tool?
[01:20] <Quintin> RememberPOL, that would be it.  vino is only for a login session in gnome.  look at Xvncserver maybe
[01:20] <Supaplex> why is my backspace acting like delete in screen? it works fine in konsole. $TERM=xterm-color
[01:20] <macogw> LadyNikon: oh wait it connected now....that identd thing takes FOREVER to time out
[01:20] <travel> Can someone tell me how I move all the contents from folder x to folder B that already exists
[01:20] <SurfnKid> roller: sorry not expressed it correctly
[01:20] <misa_> hello . how can i create starter which starts me synaptic ?

[01:21] <Sam_> i can connect to the server but no one else can
[01:21] <Quintin> Sam_, #networking maybe
[01:21] <Supaplex> my .screenrc doesn't exist.
[01:21] <macogw> LadyNikon: hey maybe that's why I can't use the password set thingy in pidgin....the server spends so long trying to connect it gets the password before it requests it
[01:21] <RememberPOL> Quintin: I know X is installed properly because I'm running the ssh client with the -X parameter and I can run GUI apps (like vino-preferences) just fine...
[01:21] <Sam_> and i need to figure out how to get computers on teh network so peeps can acess the files
[01:21] <macogw> Quintin: yeah, I've seen LadyNikon on there before

[01:22] <QuixoticJ> how can i view that fstab thing to make sure both my dvd-roms are setup properly? I think there is a problem with the configuration
[01:22] <duelboot> Sam_, #duelboot
[01:22] <Sam_> kkz
[01:22] <Pelo> QuixoticJ,  sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[01:22] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, Delete any lines from fstab that refer to your DVD drives.  your desktop will automount them
[01:23] <QuixoticJ> i dont think it automounted them properly or something. I'm also trying to get wine to see the second one but i dont think it is im not sure im new at this
[01:23] <RememberPOL> Quintin: Would you happen to know if it's even possible to set up a (windows-style) RDP server on ubuntu?
[01:23] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, run winecfg
[01:23] <Pelo> QuixoticJ,  for wine issues you'll get better help in #winehq
[01:23] <Quintin> RememberPOL, YES
[01:23] <LadyNikon> macogw: heh
[01:23] <QuixoticJ> ya but i dont want to take it there yet until i know whats wrong the guys in there are a bit harsh
[01:23] <Quintin> ryan__, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=148808  first google result
[01:24] <QuixoticJ> want to amke sure its setup properly first on the ubuntu side b4 i look at the wine setup
[01:24] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, did you try the "autodetect drives" button?
[01:24] <LadyNikon> wow
[01:24] <QuixoticJ> where is that button at ? quintin?
[01:24] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, Delete all entries referring to the optical drives..
[01:24] <LadyNikon> the loco thing is freakin massive.
[01:24] <QuixoticJ> from fstab?
[01:24] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, run winecfg , and clikk the "drives" tab
[01:24] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, yes
[01:24] <deCon> Flannel: thanks! Actually WebCT is just awful. It is "incompatible" but still works mainly, but says firefox and linux should not work with it.
[01:24] <macogw> LadyNikon: what loco are you in?
[01:24] <QuixoticJ> arent they suppose to be in fstab?
[01:24] <hagabaka> if i have a deb package with dependent packages, how can I install the package and also install the dependencies from APT?
[01:24] <LadyNikon> macogw: maryland
[01:25] <Flannel> hagabaka: gdebi, I believe
[01:25] <macogw> LadyNikon: OH! I went to the first Ubuntu MD meeting!
[01:25] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, ...  trust me.
[01:25] <macogw> LadyNikon: did I meet you?
[01:25] <dad> Has anyone heard about MS's claim on copyright infringment?
[01:25] <QuixoticJ> quintin I just dont want to mess up the fstab file because i'm not sure exsactly which lines to remove.
[01:25] <hagabaka> oh
[01:25] <macogw> dad: everyone has. we laugh
[01:25] <hagabaka> thanks
[01:25] <LadyNikon> macogw: probaly not.. this is my first.
[01:25] <Pelo> dad, yes we have ,  I'm selling everything I own to pay the fine
[01:25] <macogw> LadyNikon: oh ok
[01:25] <RememberPOL> Quintin: I know there are RDP clients like gnome-rdp and rdesktop and tsclient...but do you have any info on how to set up an RDP server? (not VNC/NX/XDMCP)
[01:25] <usr13> Well, I don't seem to know whether to set clients to look for "Network  ipp" or "Network Unix LPD"
[01:25] <dad> Yeh wats that all about?
[01:25] <QuixoticJ> quintin i do trust your ability i'm just cautious and like to learn as i  go about how this is working. second day on linux
[01:25] <macogw> dad: it's patent, not copyright
[01:25] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, ah, well caution is certainly due if you're not familiar with the file.  Why don't you pastebin it and I'll lok at it
[01:26] <furenku> hello... this is probably a very lame question... is there a way to open several programs at once? (i.e. qjackctl, rosegarden and ardour)
[01:26] <QuixoticJ> quintin can you link me to the pastebin think I dont remember the url
[01:26] <Quintin> RememberPOL, ..yes.
[01:26] <Possum> Anyone know anything about problems/incompatability with AsRock VIA 775VM800 motherboard or Pentium4 (Prescott) 3GHz proc? (dual core, IA32e (64-bit) support)
[01:26] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, pastebin.ca, I think.  You could also just private msg me
[01:26] <georgy28> usr: you have to too the same think at the client side, did you do that ?
[01:26] <macogw> furenku: with one command?  you could put a script in /usr/local/bin
[01:26] <QuixoticJ> ok. I private msged someone in winehq and got my head ripped off about asking first and such :p
[01:26] <tin> Quintin: never remove lines from files anyway
[01:26] <yazeed> hi
[01:26] <Possum> I'm running the amd64 install of feisty on it
[01:26] <tin> just comment them
[01:27] <tin> until you'r absolutely sure you'll never need that line again
[01:27] <macogw> furenku: just put a text file in there that says the name of a program (well, the command you use to run it) one on each line
[01:27] <furenku> macogw: where can i learn to do this? or could you tell me really quickly?
[01:27] <yell0w> QuixoticJ, that's normal irc
[01:27] <yell0w> hehe
[01:27] <yazeed> how to   join to root
[01:27] <Possum> And it's just running really.... really... really... slowly
[01:27] <tin> even then, it's only a few bytes, and you could use it as a reference later
[01:27] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, usually on IRC ask before sending PM
[01:27] <furenku> macogw: thank you very much man
[01:27] <georgy28> usr13 you have to do the same think at the client side, did you do that ?
[01:27] <blind> 62187
[01:27] <QuixoticJ> ya im learning the rules as I go =)
[01:27] <BigMac> Hey can anyone tell me how to turn off Ktorrent from booting on startup in KDE
[01:27] <tin> QuixoticJ i meant
[01:27] <macogw> furenku: open a terminal and type something like "sudo gedit /usr/local/bin/runstuff"
[01:27] <macogw> furenku: then list the things in that file, and save it
[01:27] <Pelo> yazeed,   you can'T login as root in ubuntu ,  you log in as a regular user and use sudo to run root commands
[01:28] <macogw> furenku: then "sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/runstuff"
[01:28] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: I have it installed now
[01:28] <randomwalker> how do i find if my hard drive has native command queueing?
[01:28] <Shaun_Molder> Can anyone tell me what files I should look at to see if there's anything wrong in them that could be stopping me from loading the gui on the live cd?
[01:28] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: ok that's good
[01:28] <Quintin> yazeed, You have to run gdmsetup if you want to login graphically as root.  this is really not recommeneded though
[01:28] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: It says the hardware isn't there though
[01:28] <SurfnKid> roller: i deleted the sessions file under .gnome and the desktop is now loading without any apps, the only problem now is the splash screen ohhhh wait, i just remembered!! dop :S
[01:28] <yell0w> QuixoticJ, it takes a few head-ripped-off then head-put-backon =P
[01:28] <SurfnKid> brb
[01:28] <Mr680x0^Acer> macogw: Hardware present: no
[01:28] <Quintin> randomwalker, hdparm, maybe.  or smartctl... did you look at google
[01:28] <macogw> Mr680x0^Acer: oy I think my mom's card did that too but I don't remember how to fix it :/ google?
[01:28] <voltagex> hi, big problems with a Geforce 8500GT, both with the nvidia-glx-new package and the driver from the NVidia site. I get an error that it "Failed to initialize DAC HAL"
[01:28] <QuixoticJ> yell0w yup I'm happy for it too I want to become a linux regular and learn the ropes.
[01:28] <Quintin> RememberPOL, http://sourceforge.net/projects/xrdp
[01:28] <randomwalker> quintin: i googled the model of the harddrive, nothing very useful
[01:29] <QuixoticJ> quintin I pmed you the fstab
[01:29] <yell0w> QuixoticJ, cool. have fun
[01:29] <macogw> Shaun_Molder: did you try safe graphics mode?
[01:29] <QuixoticJ> yell0w is your name like the starcraft player yell0w?
[01:29] <Quintin> QuixoticJ, I don't see it.  is your nick registered?  /msg nickserv
[01:29] <furenku> macogw: how can i know the command names for the programs i want to open (i.e. jack control is qjackctl)
[01:29] <yazeed> problem  is cant copy any thing to hard
[01:29] <Shaun_Molder> macogw: yes
[01:29] <yell0w> QuixoticJ, no
[01:29] <RememberPOL> Quintin: Thank you much.. I will try this or Xvncserver, hope it's not too hard. ^^ ty again
[01:29] <Quintin> RememberPOL, no problem
[01:29] <Shaun_Molder> macogw: Still the same problems.
[01:30] <puff> macogw: Hm, only visible change after installing bluez-gnome is I now have System/Preferences/Bluetooth, which brings up a gnome dialog.  Unfortunately all the dialog gives me is a three-way choice between a) never display icon, b) only display when adapter present c) always display icon.  I changed to "always" just to see what might come up when I click or right-click that icon... but I don't see an icon showing up anywhere.
[01:30] <macogw> furenku: well what programs are they? it's often just their names, but you can try doing alt f2 and typing and if it autocompletes the program's name, then one with that name exists
[01:30] <Mr680x0^Acer> night all
[01:31] <furenku> macogw: they would be jack control, ardour, rosegarden
[01:31] <macogw> Shaun_Molder: try adding noapic to the options on the splash screen...that's what one of my friends had to do for his nvidia card
[01:31] <macogw> furenku: I think ardour and rosegarden just use their names
[01:31] <QuixoticJ> quintin ya i tried to register it but I think someone else already has it so i couldnt
[01:31] <QuixoticJ> quintin either that or i did it wrong
[01:32] <macogw> ack battery's about to die
[01:32] <furenku> macogw: thank you so much man youve been amazing
[01:32] <macogw> gtg all
[01:32] <mathmoi> Can someone suggest a software to periodically backup pre-selected files/folders to DVD?
[01:32] <LoMac_> Ello everybody
[01:32] <Pelo> !backup
[01:32] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[01:32] <mathmoi> Pelo: Thank you
[01:32] <Pelo> np
[01:33] <yazeed> i m cont  copy file to hard
[01:33] <QuixoticJ> pelo can you make the bot link me to pastebin?
[01:33] <Pelo> !paste
[01:33] <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)
[01:33] <blind> kitche: i just used dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and removed all but 1280x1024 resolutions, and inputted the correct refresh rates, and it's still at 1024x768 :\
[01:34] <QuixoticJ> thanks
[01:34] <Flannel> QuixoticJ: it's in the topic too
[01:34] <blind> errr wrong line.
[01:34] <Pelo> !botsnack
[01:34] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[01:34] <QuixoticJ> thanks flannel
[01:34] <blind> I used to be able to use 1280x1024 screen resolution. For whatever reason, my xorg got borked and I had to fix it. I have the correct refresh rates (same ones I had before), same video card, and I've added the 1280x1024 resolution to my xorg. When I go to change my resolution, 1280x1024 isn't even an option. How can I fix this? (oh, and X has been restarted, so it's not that)
[01:34] <spikeb> boooo
[01:34] <tsoul> hey guyz, need major help
[01:34] <LadyNikon> win 1

[01:34] <Slart> blind: paste your xorg.conf at the pastebin and let us have a look at it
[01:34] <QuixoticJ> quintin here is the fstab. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21356/
[01:34] <Pelo> blind,  you need to add the rez for each colour depth and you also need to restart X for it to take effect
[01:35] <Slart> !pastebin | blind
[01:35] <ubotu> blind: 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)
[01:35] <tsoul> i have got as far as having my two screens in TwinView but the menu is loading on the screen on the right, adn when u opne video fullscreen only loads onto one screen on the right
[01:35] <blind> Pelo, did you even read what I said? :P
[01:35] <blind> Slart: alright, one sec.
[01:35] <tsoul> anybody pelase ?
[01:35] <Pelo> blind,  did you read the rest of my reply ????
[01:36] <blind> Pelo, yes I did. I said at the end I restarted X ;] 
[01:36] <blind> and here's my xorg
[01:36] <blind> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21357/
[01:36] <redhand> good evening!
[01:36] <QuixoticJ> hi redhand
[01:36] <BigToe> How do I disable kacpid and kacpi_notify? I think it's looking for a fan that isn't there (my fans are connected to a molex) so it's wasting all my CPU time
[01:37] <QuixoticJ> quintin I have my fstab on a pastebin now. here is the link http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21356/
[01:37] <ryan__> I have ubuntu desktop edition. 7.04 installed already.. I dont have a copy of the server but can download it.. Is there any reason for me to switch, or is all the server stuff easily installable through apt-get? I'm trying to setup a webserver testbed.
[01:37] <BigToe> ryan__, it depends
[01:37] <Flannel> ryan__: The server vs desktop is only different in the packages installed by default
[01:37] <Slart> blind: and the x log? pastebin it too, please.
[01:37] <spikeb> ryan__: all easily accessable, for the most part
[01:37] <Pelo> blind, check the forum  I think there is a thing where you have to change nvidia to nv or somesuch but I am not realy familiar with those driers
[01:37] <Pelo> drivers
[01:37] <peepsalot> anyone here tried gnash?
[01:37] <Flannel> ryan__: you can convert one to the other and v.v. easily, and have components of both installed easily and stuff.
[01:38] <spikeb> peepsalot: i have.
[01:38] <Flannel> ryan__: they're really all just "ubuntu", and then you install whatever you want on them.
[01:38] <blind> ryan__: all you really need is lamp
[01:38] <spikeb> peepsalot: it's not ready for major usage for videos yet, but the next release should be.
[01:38] <furenku> macogw: i typed this chmod command, nothing happened
[01:38] <Flannel> !lamp | ryan__
[01:38] <ubotu> ryan__: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[01:38] <ryan__> Thats what I was looking for =P Didnt know if one was locked down differently or anything like that. I just want LMAP / Ruby
[01:38] <Flannel> ryan__: that page (the url) gets you up to speed with LAMP
[01:38] <wil> hey does anyone use the program stopmotion? i need some help, it dosent seem to be working with my camera
[01:38] <ryan__> Thanks Flannel!
[01:38] <BigToe> How do I disable kacpid and kacpi_notify? I think it's looking for a fan that isn't there (my fans are connected to a molex) so it's wasting all my CPU time
[01:38] <peepsalot> spikeb, ok, that's mainly what I wante to know.  do you thin it will run more efficiently than adobe flash?
[01:38] <blind> Slart: how do i get my x log? >_>
[01:38] <spikeb> peepsalot: yes.
[01:38] <randomwalker> blind: /var/log/xorg.0.log
[01:39] <spikeb> peepsalot: it already does, even in its current state
[01:39] <noelferreira> how can i change the fps of an avi file? or change a srt subtitles file?
[01:39] <wil> my camera works fine in camorama but stopmotion dosent seem to be able to connect to it
[01:39] <randomwalker> blind: oops, sorry, hold on
[01:39] <Pelo> BigToe, did you look in inet.d and init.d ?
[01:39] <peepsalot> spikeb, so it currently supports some types of vids, but not all?
[01:39] <non|linear> First off, sorry this is so long, but i've been having problems mounting and changing permissions on a drive partition (1 of 5 - the other 4 work great).  It's a long story, but basically the fstab is OK and from what i can see the drive is no different from the other drives on my system (except that it's the Docements and Settings partition for XP).  anyhow, when i look in the Hardware Info package everything is identical to the work
[01:39] <non|linear> ing dreives, except that the linux.fstab.mountpoint and linux.fstab.mountpoint entries (but it is properly entered in fstab)  I also just noticed that i'm gettin an error on boot: Mount special device /blah/blah/BLAH_BLAH does not exist.)  so then i have to manually mount it each time.  can anyone help me in the right direction?
[01:39] <spikeb> peepsalot: from what i can tell, yes
[01:39] <Slart> blind, randomwalker: that looked about right...
[01:39] <BigToe> Pelo, where will those be? /etc/?
[01:39] <BigToe> Pelo, also, I can't kill them. killall and kill don't work, they just respawn
[01:39] <Pelo> BigMac,   somewhere in that area
[01:40] <spikeb> peepsalot: it doesnt do youtube or anything yet (the current released version) but it is working in the development version, and they're stablizing it for release.
[01:40] <randomwalker> blind, Slart: Xorg with uppercase x
[01:40] <Slart> blind, randomwalker: or.. rather it's /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[01:40] <Slart> :D
[01:40] <Pelo> BigToe, when you find where the startup command is located , comment it out of the file with #
[01:41] <andreas__> Can someone please help me install Plone locally on Feisty?
[01:41] <Pelo> BigToe, you wonT' be able to kill it untill you reboot,  and after that it won't matter since they won't load
[01:41] <noelferreira> how can i change the fps of an avi file? or change a srt subtitles file?
[01:41] <Pelo> andreas__,  did you check in synaptic for a package first ?
[01:41] <spikeb> noelferreira: look in add/remove programs for a subtitle editor
[01:41] <andreas__> Pelo: Checked apt-cache
[01:42] <neilthereildeil> /server 1ANDALLIRC
[01:42] <Flannel> andreas__: enable universe, it's in there.
[01:42] <peepsalot> spikeb, thanks for the info
[01:42] <Flannel> andreas__: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?keywords=plone&searchon=names&subword=1&version=feisty&release=all
[01:42] <Pelo> andreas__,  and on the plone site was there a deb package you could use ?
[01:42] <spikeb> peepsalot: you're welcome. i'm excited! :)
[01:42] <zarilion> What do i have to enable in ubuntu to get the windows transparent?
[01:42] <BigToe> Pelo, sigh
[01:42] <peepsalot> me too :D
[01:42] <neilthereildeil> /server RIZON
[01:42] <neilthereildeil> godamnit
[01:42] <Slart> zarilion: composite support
[01:42] <BigToe> rebooting kills my uptime though :S
[01:42] <BigToe> I'll just deal with the load until I reboot then
[01:43] <neilthereildeil> is there a way we can keep an uptime high score?
[01:43] <andreas__> Thanks
[01:43] <antum> Help... I've ruined Ubuntu :(
[01:43] <Slart> zarilion: that would be beryl, compiz or that other thing.. can't remember the name.. search for composite manager in synaptic
[01:43] <BigToe> but i still can't find any mention to kacpi in init.d?
[01:43] <spikeb> neilthereildeil: don't ever reboot.
[01:43] <spikeb> heh
[01:43] <chump> is there a command to compare 2 directory with md5 key of file or something similar ?
[01:43] <neilthereildeil> like whenever we reboot, replace the uptime file with this uptime oif its larger?
[01:43] <antum> I can't get to the login screen anymore
[01:43] <bimberi> andreas__: the package is zope-cmfplone, or if you want a prebuilt zope instance with the plone Product available you can install plone-site
[01:43] <Flannel> neilthereildeil: No.  Uptime just means you have kernel vulnerabilities
[01:43] <Pelo> BigToe, menu > system > prefs > session  : second tab,  find the processes change the parameter to something other then restart
[01:43] <neilthereildeil> ohh thats true
[01:43] <neilthereildeil> good point
[01:43] <antum> I changed a setting under System -> Security? Something about X server...
[01:43] <Shaun_Molder> I tried the noapic option, but it didn't work. Am I supposed to use it a certain way?
[01:44] <BigToe> Pelo, this is ubuntu server
[01:44] <noelferreira> spikeb: did you use one already? what is the best?
[01:44] <Mr680x0^Ubuntu> macogw: got it working :)
[01:44] <BigToe> no menu here :P
[01:44] <zarilion> Slart, does it require a good gfx card or will a nvidia 6200 be enough?
[01:44] <antum> Can I turn the option back on in recovery mode?
[01:44] <Slart> !info xcompmgr | zarilion
[01:44] <ubotu> zarilion: xcompmgr: X composition manager. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.1.3~20060831-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 19 kB, installed size 80 kB
[01:44] <Pelo> BigToe,  then you are screwed
[01:44] <blind> hm
[01:44] <BigToe> Pelo, :(
[01:44] <antum> Or how do I start the graphical system in recovery mode?
[01:44] <Pelo> BigToe, check in the forum
[01:44] <spikeb> noelferreira: i haven't needed to do subtitle changing (yet) so i haven't used any of them.
[01:44] <Pelo> BigMac,  or manpage it
[01:44] <BigToe> mmmkay
[01:44] <blind_> sorry, connection died. :\ my xlog is http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21358/
[01:45] <noelferreira> ok
[01:45] <bimberi> antum: 'su - <username>' then 'startx'
[01:45] <Slart> zarilion:  beryl or compiz will require some 3d muscles.. but a 6200 should be enough.. don't have it enabled while playing games though... xcompmgr is much leaner but without the bling bling
[01:45] <antum> bimberi Thanks
[01:45] <antum> !
[01:45] <Flannel> bimberi, antum, sudo can do that too.
[01:45] <bimberi> antum: np
[01:45] <Slart> blind_: no worries.. I'll have a look
[01:45] <Shaun_Molder> macogw: The noapic line didn't work. I still got the errors. Is there a certain way I'm supposed to use it?
[01:45] <blind_> Slart: thanks, I appreciate it.
[01:46] <zarilion> Slart, cool:) dont paly anything other than WoW and dont realy want the "Bling Bling" :P
[01:46] <Mr680x0^Ubuntu> macogw: it said in the driver thing that the hardware wasn't there,but it worked
[01:46] <Slart> zarilion: hehe.. then I think xcompmgr will do nicely.. it's a really small utility.. you can always remove it if you don't like it
[01:46] <noelferreira> spikeb: subtitle editer for gstreamer is excelent
[01:46] <spikeb> yes, composite managing plus 3d gaming = death
[01:46] <noelferreira> spikeb: thanks
[01:46] <spikeb> noelferreira: you're welcome!
[01:46] <Mr680x0^Ubuntu> whadda you know, he left :D
[01:46] <Mr680x0^Ubuntu> :(
[01:46] <bimberi> Flannel: yes I'm sure it does.  I just don't have the syntax at the top of my head.
[01:47] <spikeb> i leave compiz off because i never remember to turn it off before firing up nexuiz, and that locks my X up
[01:47] <darwin> What is the best way to solve the problem of Azureus crashing on startup?
[01:47] <Neil-> just installed songbird, but theres nothing in the applications menu
[01:47] <non|linear> i don't know, cause i can't use azuerus cause the fonts keep turning into swahili etc (no kidding)
[01:47] <Jordan_U> darwin, Depends on why it is crashing, does it give any errors?
[01:47] <Neil-> anyone know how to a) start it b) add it to apps menu?
[01:48] <bimberi> Flannel: 'sudo -u <username> startx'   I think :)
[01:48] <zarilion> Slart, i installed it now the packet now but how do i configure it? :P (somewhat new to this)
[01:48] <non|linear> i think the solution is called utorrent
[01:48] <spikeb> Neil-: you can add stuff using the menu editor which is in system->preferences
[01:48] <Slart> zarilion: just run it in a terminal... don't think there is alot to configure
[01:48] <spikeb> Neil-: and the command should be 'songbird' without the quotes
[01:48] <LucianSolaris> ANYONE: Everytime I restart the Xserver, DRI/Radeon is not loaded, thus no Direct Rendering.  I depend on 3ddesk for desktop switching (i don't use kpager) so I need DRI.  I use the oss 'Radeon' driver.  How do I aleviate this DRI not loading after xserver restart issue?

[01:51] <Pelo> Nedlinpopo, no idea you can manualy edit xorg.conf afterward if you need to put in some extra details
[01:51] <Neil-> songbird into terminal doesnt work
[01:51] <LucianSolaris> non|linear: I don't believe so, I set the video drivers under xorg.conf to 'radeon' from 'ati'
[01:51] <antum> spikeb thanks... I'll check that out
[01:51] <spikeb> Neil-: maybe you need to provide the whole path
[01:51] <Pelo> Neil-,  check the songbird site for help or info
[01:51] <LucianSolaris> non|linear: this has been a problem, even before I did the xorg.conf edit

[01:52] <spikeb> did you compile it yourself?
[01:52] <jeffwheeler> I'm trying to install Ubuntu on a Compaq Presario V3000 CTO notebook, but it appears there are already three partitions on the four partitions, on the roughly 100gig hd, about 70% of which is one which I assume has Windows and most files, then followed by an 8 megabyte blank partition, then two I don't recognize that split the rest about in half which are mostly filled, but I have no idea with what. Apparently (this isn't my co
[01:52] <Jordan_U> antum, Usually to start X you do "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm start" rather than startx directly, that might have something to do with it
[01:52] <Pelo> Neil-, what was the name of the package you used to install it ?
[01:52] <Neil-> spikeb: Comes wih an installer
[01:52] <Sergo> Neil- Try SongBird
[01:52] <LucianSolaris> non|linear: do I >NOT< want agpgart
[01:52] <spikeb> oh
[01:52] <zarilion> Slart, Thank you:)
[01:52] <LadyNikon> 3 partitions on the 4 paritions?
[01:52] <Neil-> sergo: No go :(
[01:52] <spikeb> Neil-: try variations on the capitalization of the word songbird first. :)
[01:53] <spikeb> Songbird SongBird songBird
[01:53] <spikeb> heh
[01:53] <Slart> zarilion: it worked? sweet.. it's not the huge monster that beryl or compiz is.. but it works for getting transparency
[01:53] <Woody_> what is the best website for the best themes for UBUNTU?
[01:53] <LadyNikon> jeffwheeler: you can tell if its windows by looking at what it is formatted as.. it would be NTFS or FAT32
[01:53] <antum> Jordan_U thanks for that...
[01:53] <Jordan_U> jeffwheeler, Have you tried mounting them to see what they contain? what file system are they?
[01:53] <non|linear> lucian, the problem is prolly cause of all of the crap/useless/irrelevant drivers installed with xorg....  so there are sevarel versions oc library files floating around that much thigns up.  as a first/simple step, you should go into your sybaptic manager and uninstall the "xserver-xorg-video-all" option or whatever, and just have your driver in stalled.  if that doesn't help, elt us knw
[01:53] <Sergo> Nail- it is not available from applications/Sound & Video ?
[01:53] <Pelo> jeffwheeler,  boot up windows figure out what is what and what you can move and what you can delete and then proceed with the ubuntu install
[01:53] <Neil-> spikeb: Tried them all, no lucky.. how stupid :P
[01:53] <anabelle> hi, im having a really dumb problem
[01:53] <spikeb> haha
[01:53] <spikeb> hmm
[01:53] <anabelle> and i cant find it in the forums
[01:53] <deCon> is there such a way to do remote desktop connection into a windows environment?
[01:53] <spikeb> Neil-: the installer didnt inform you where it put it
[01:53] <spikeb> ?
[01:53] <LadyNikon> anabelle: i ask tons of those.. you wont be th first.
[01:53] <Pelo> anabelle, just ask the question
[01:53] <LucianSolaris> non|linear: will this remove 'radeon'?
[01:54] <q-t> what is the command for renaming files in terminal???
[01:54] <BigToe> !vnc | deCon
[01:54] <ubotu> deCon: VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[01:54] <non|linear> and sorry for the typing, i'm a freak and really lazy :)
[01:54] <LadyNikon> q-t: cp <filename> <newfilname>
[01:54] <Jordan_U> anabelle, ask away :)
[01:54] <jeffwheeler> Pelo: that's what I think I need to do, but as far as I know (again, this isn't my computer and I didn't have much time with it), Windows only sees the main disk, C:/.
[01:54] <BigToe> anyway
[01:54] <Neil-> spikeb: Downloaded a targz, containing a file called songbird.. I think thats actually the player now ive run it again, crazy

[01:54] <dandaman32> hey, out of curiosity, can ubuntu be installed via PXE, and if so, how?
[01:54] <spikeb> Neil-: haha you got it figured out then
[01:54] <non|linear> no, and if it does, just ensure that you reinstall your correct driver.  and if you don't, i think it should be OK until you do a dpkg-reconfigure anyhow
[01:54] <q-t> LadyNikon: thnx:)
[01:55] <deCon> BigToe: thanks!
[01:55] <LadyNikon> q-t: np :)

[01:55] <Pelo> jeffwheeler,  and the live cd isn'T mounting the extra drives ?

[01:55] <LadyNikon> deCon: did you try googling for a similar program?
[01:55] <Pelo> jeffwheeler,  pick up the phone and call the owner and ask him if there  is anything important on those and if you can trash them or not
[01:56] <anabelle> how do i do that ?
[01:56] <non|linear> sorry to do this again guys, bit i really need some help :)
[01:56] <anabelle> thank you...

[01:56] <non|linear> First off, sorry this is so long, but i've been having problems mounting and changing permissions on a drive partition (1 of 5 - the other 4 work great).  It's a long story, but basically the fstab is OK and from what i can see the drive is no different from the other drives on my system (except that it's the Docements and Settings partition for XP).  anyhow, when i look in the Hardware Info package everything is identical to the work
[01:56] <non|linear> ing dreives, except that the linux.fstab.mountpoint and linux.fstab.mountpoint entries (but it is properly entered in fstab)  I also just noticed that i'm gettin an error on boot: Mount special device /blah/blah/BLAH_BLAH does not exist.)  so then i have to manually mount it each time.  can anyone help me in the right direction?
[01:56] <LadyNikon> deCon: like when i wanted something similar to visio.. i googled open source visio

[02:09] <non|linear> does anyone on here know how to get good or at least decent audio from ALCx/AC97 cards?  using maybe ALSA or something else?
[02:09] <yazeed> how to join to root
[02:09] <Jordan_U> IntrinsicValue, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:09] <yazeed> ??
[02:09] <cwillu> yazeed: sudo -s
[02:10] <jrib> cypherdelic: why are you upgrading to gutsy?
[02:10] <LadyNikon> blarg
[02:10] <anabelle> just needed sudo modprobe dv1394
[02:10] <anabelle> bye
[02:10] <LadyNikon> travel: heh there are like 6 oo progras
[02:10] <LadyNikon> programs*
[02:10] <cypherdelic> jrib: the error did appeared before dont ASK my why
[02:10] <cwillu> anabelle: might want to look at /etc/modules then
[02:10] <cypherdelic> its not problem related why i go to gutsy
[02:10] <jrib> cypherdelic: that package doesn't indicate the deb is a feisty version
[02:10] <gnomefreak> cypherdelic: failed during upgrade?
[02:11] <Boshi> kitche still ther?
[02:11] <Woody_> ho do i install a theme in ubuntu?
[02:11] <IntrinsicValue> Jordan_U - I tried that before, and it didn't work.
[02:11] <ffm> What is the best virtulization software to run windows in under Ubuntu 7.04?
[02:11] <Jordan_U> cypherdelic, Have you found out what actual script is failing?
[02:11] <jrib> ffm: vmware works fine for me, don't know about "best"
[02:11] <cypherdelic> jrib: gnomefreak:  Jordan_U: i just want to get rif of havp, bah
[02:11] <ffm> jrib, kk. Thanks.
[02:11] <tannerld> I need some assistance with symbolic links
[02:11] <cables> ffm, KVM is the fastest if your processor supports it
[02:11] <IntrinsicValue> Jordan_U : then I tried doing some other comand which I don't remember the name, and I cut/paste some Mode line into the xorg.conf file... and that didn't work either.
[02:11] <jrib> cypherdelic: try #ubuntu+1, it's probably broken...
[02:12] <Woody_> jrib: how do i install a theme in ubuntu?
[02:12] <RememberPOL> Anyone know the command-line to run the software source selection GUI?
[02:12] <jrib> tannerld: just ask
[02:12] <jrib> Woody_: system > preferences > themes
[02:12] <cables> Woody_, System>Preferences>Themes and drag in the file
[02:12] <jcole> RememberPOL: sudo synaptic
[02:12] <Woody_> thanks
[02:12] <georgy28> anabelle: np
[02:12] <gnomefreak> cypherdelic: move it into #ubuntu+1
[02:12] <ffm> jrib, Would you reccomend the server? and , also, is there a way to apt-get it?
[02:12] <jrib> RememberPOL: gksudo software-properties-gtk
[02:13] <jrib> ffm: I just use player .  You're other options that I know of are qemu and virtualbox.  Give them all a try and see what works best for you
[02:13] <Jordan_U> ffm, I would recommend server. it's in the Ubuntu commercial repository
[02:13] <Yorkshire> HELLO, I have been trying to install my nvidia drivers but I keep gettin the ERROR: close X Server first, could anyone help me on how to close the x server? Thanks
[02:13] <jrib> !qemu > ffm (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:13] <jrib> !nvidia > Yorkshire (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:13] <cables> ffm, KKVM is the fastest if you've got a compatible processor, but VirtualBox is free and powerful.
[02:13] <cwillu> avahi-autoip is clobbering my network config;  how do I slap it down?
[02:13] <Jordan_U> Yorkshire, How are you trying to install them?
[02:14] <RememberPOL> jrib: ty
[02:14] <ffm> cables, How can I find out if I have a compatable CPU?
[02:14] <Yorkshire> going to the terminal and typing sudo sh [driver name]

[02:14] <ffm> !hi | Espen
[02:14] <ubotu> Espen: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[02:15] <jrib> Yorkshire: follow the wiki instructions, much easier
[02:15] <cables> ffm, go to wiki.ubuntu.com and search for KVM
[02:15] <piglit> when using grub in combination with LVM do you need to keep the /boot partition out of grub??
[02:15] <will__> my restricted nvidia driver wont install
[02:15] <Yorkshire> jrib: whats that?
[02:15] <piglit> i mean do i need to keep the /boot partition out of the LVM ?
[02:15] <Woody_> cables: i dragged a downloaded theme to the Themes window and it says that its a wrong format.
[02:16] <cables> Woody_, what type of theme is it?
[02:16] <jrib> Yorkshire: you should have a private message from ubotu with information.  Do you see it?
[02:16] <Woody_> its .tar.gz
[02:16] <non|linear> is anyone in here good with hard drive config issues?  i'm getting quite desperate over some annoying (and prolly simple) probs
[02:16] <Jordan_U> Woody_, Did you decompress it first?
[02:16] <Yorkshire> oh, got it, Thanks
[02:16] <will__> anyone know?
[02:16] <cables> Jordan_U, you're not supposed to uncompress it
[02:16] <cables> Woody_, what type of theme? Pointer, GTK+ (interface), metacity, beryl...
[02:16] <Jordan_U> cables, I know, that is why I asked as many people do :)
[02:16] <cypherdelic> back here gnomefreak
[02:16] <shanren> anyone has a solution to lockout when log out from a gnome session?
[02:17] <Woody_> Jordan_U: ah not yet, lol
[02:17] <cables> Jordan_U, oh, lol
[02:17] <cables> Woody_, you're not supposed to!
[02:17] <ffm> cables, Oh well, I got a kvm: no hardware support, so I guess i will use virtualbox!
[02:17] <cables> ok
[02:17] <cables>  :)
[02:17] <Woody_> i think its GTK cables
[02:17] <Espen> shanren: Unplug the keyboard and mouse.
[02:17] <Jordan_U> Woody_, Good, you aren't supposed to, I was just checking, sorry for the confusion :)
[02:17] <cypherdelic> gnomefreak: so apt-get downloaded, but it doesnt proceed anything further because the error of havp cancels everything
[02:18] <Woody_> lol ok
[02:18] <non|linear> woody did you resolve your dri issues yestereday?
[02:18] <gnomefreak> cypherdelic: what was the error?
[02:18] <Woody_> which kind of themes i should download?
[02:18] <gnomefreak> normally errors are during dpkg not apt-get
[02:18] <Woody_> non|linear: nope
[02:18] <non|linear> really/??
[02:18] <shanren> i am using a laptop
[02:18] <Espen> Woody_: You shouldn't use a X11.
[02:18] <Jordan_U> cypherdelic, Have you found out what specific script is failing?
[02:19] <non|linear> heh, nless your a genious it'll take a few days
[02:19] <Espen> Woody_: You should be using a nice shell like ksh,
[02:19] <smacky> what is the command to change your passwd
[02:19] <sico> my motherboard does not support booting from usb.  can i use grub in anyway to boot from a usb device?
[02:19] <Woody_> where can i download these from? i want a MAC OSX theme
[02:19] <Jordan_U> smacky, passwd :)
[02:19] <smacky> thanks
[02:19] <Espen> Woody_: Then go buy a Mac.
[02:19] <jrib> Woody_: there are a few on gnome-look.org
[02:19] <shanren> is it because i am using a usb mouse?
[02:19] <Woody_> lol Espen
[02:19] <|_ocke> do you guys get this/find it funny? http://locke.serveblog.net/blog/index.php/2007/05/17/new-comic-in-the-bush/
[02:19] <Woody_> jrib: can you get me one? im not knowing what to search for
[02:20] <Espen> Not to troll, but why the **** would you want it to look like Mac OS X?
[02:20] <|_ocke> also, does it look correct on your browser, its on my server
[02:20] <Espen> That is a terrible user interface.
[02:20] <jrib> Woody_: try searching for "osx" at the site
[02:20] <Woody_> Espen any one
[02:20] <ffm> Espen, you are right, that _is_ trolling.
[02:20] <Woody_> GTK 2.x is good?
[02:21] <cables> Woody_, they should work... it's possible it's just a bad download or a badly made theme
[02:21] <Espen> Woody_: Just run a lightweight window manager like TWM and you'll be happy.
[02:21] <Bulltitan> hi i have a problem with my usb drive
[02:21] <DARKGuy> Espen: I don't see the problem, other people's desktops don't have to look like *you* want or prefer :P
[02:21] <cables> Espen, cut it out.
[02:21] <cwillu> anyone ever run into an issue where avahi clobbers a working network config?
[02:21] <linux_kid> After resizing a Friend's HDD partitions, Windows booted with the error of an invalid boot disk, any help?
[02:21] <non|linear> woody are you using beryl or what
[02:21] <Bulltitan> it is recognized and detected according to the ubuntu system logs but it doesnt show up
[02:21] <Woody_> i watched a video on youtube, he was using an amazing theme OSX
[02:21] <Espen> cables: He was asking about something offtopic.

[02:27] <cjae> how do I diagnose
[02:27] <cwillu> a5benwillis: yes, you'll have to make a change with hdparm after it's installed;  probably want to do that change to hda as soon as the live cd boots actually
[02:27] <kazol> I don't understand what the key1-4 and passphrase is for in WEP encryption.

[02:28] <sebas_> hilts50: it's okay now, thanks anyway.
[02:28] <hilts50> np
[02:28] <Flannel> Necrodrako: Why would you want to?
[02:28] <cjae> sound clicking during mp3 playback
[02:28] <Falstius> kazol: you set a key on your router when you enabled WEP on it.  You need to type that key in to one of those boxes.  Some routers use rotating keys, but probably not yours.  For details on setting up wep, read the web page.
[02:28] <cjae> wasn' t happening before
[02:29] <Necrodrako> Flannel:simplicity purposes, nobody uses my computer accept me
[02:29] <py_geek> ALL:: Just a small question- when My computer starts up (have dell A32 BIOS), on the grub screen, I have to ALWAYS press Esc and then enter, otherwise it won't boot into ubuntu properly.
[02:29] <non|linear> LOL @ falstius :)  kazol, it's really a simple thing, you just need to do abotu 10 minutes of reading, iand honestly it's really difficult to guide thgouh it on irc

[02:30] <sebas_> what is vi?
[02:31] <Sergo> what is mac
[02:31] <Falstius> sebas_: a text editor.  Some people really really like it.
[02:31] <Sergo> !mac
[02:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[02:31] <Necrodrako> mac is the worst OS known to man
[02:31] <py_geek> non|linear: they look cool, though(much better than windows)
[02:31] <sebas_> hahah, there's one there!
[02:31] <kazol> Sergo: A crappy OS.
[02:31] <jrib> sebas_: it is a text editor.  "nano" is easier if you are new and need something quick in the terminal

[02:33] <jrib> tannerld: you can create a launcher I guess
[02:33] <Necrodrako> ph: i dont want to reinstall
[02:33] <cwillu> Bulltitan: make sure you don't just paste into here though, ubotu sent you a link to use
[02:33] <aster> Wow, it is kind of sad seeing all of these people here that aren't as intelligent as me.
[02:33] <ph> You asked if you can, I told you how I did
[02:33] <sebas_> jrib: why is it know to be *so* good?
[02:33] <non|linear> just grew op on dos on honeywell/sperry but had to use apples and macs at school, and really was turned off cause i couldln't 'compute
[02:33] <cjae> !sound
[02:33] <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
[02:34] <aster> They probably know nothing about kernel module programming or object oriented programming like me.
[02:34] <non|linear> *'compute" anything as compared with dos
[02:34] <cwillu> what are the odds that somebody could make aster go away?
[02:34] <LuisGMarine> Anyone here have Bitpim working on AMD64?
[02:34] <kazol> non|linear: The wifi is not easy. Problem is I'm running DD-WRT, Ubuntu wifi Manager, and Belkin wifi on Windows. They all have different settings.
[02:34] <jrib> sebas_: well it's standard so you can count on it being on almost any system, and it has a lot of keyboard shortcuts for you to get stuff done quickly, and it powerful.  If you're interested, run "vimtutor" in a terminal
[02:34] <ksnipz> was hoping someone could help. When I play mp3 files in vlc player, or kaffiene the colors come all scrambled. I'm thinking this is a coedec problem any onle se have any problems with this?
[02:34] <Necrodrako> ph: thank you any ways
[02:35] <aster> My intelligence is too superior to the idiots here, and I must leave. Good bye, enjoy your ignorance and lack of intelligence.
[02:35] <LucianSolaris> non|linear: hello?
[02:35] <non|linear> kazol, it's never easy till you figure it out :)  how long you been trying to deal with this?
[02:35] <non|linear> sorry lucian, what up
[02:35] <sebas_> jrib: now installing vim-runtime
[02:35] <gmlrh> aster had a good point.
[02:36] <py_geek> non|linear: well i grew up on windows and to me, they are not THAT much different... MS is sooooooo slow on our old computer(designed for 2000, running XP) and my laptop(why I switched to ubuntu). They both suck compared to linux...
[02:36] <kazol> non|linear: For some time now. The DD-WRT has 1 passphrase and 4 keys; how do I type in the randomly generated hex key?
[02:36] <jrib> gmlrh: stop now.
[02:36] <gmlrh> aster truly is much more intelligent.
[02:36] <Bulltitan> ok cwillu its done
[02:36] <Bulltitan> what should i give to u the url?
[02:36] <cwillu> Bulltitan: just paste the url
[02:36] <non|linear> lucian: it seems to me that all of the xorg crap is 'misdirecting' things... so you need to uninstall anything not realated to ATI (like 30/40 drivers) and reinstall yours, then go into recovery and do a dpkg-reconfigure
[02:37] <Bulltitan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21361/
[02:37] <jrib> sebas_: I'd recommend vim-full, not sure what vim-runtime lacks or if it's the same
[02:37] <py_geek> well im off to the forums...
[02:37] <non|linear> i.e. in sunaptic, all of the xserver-xorg-video-random_video_deriver
[02:38] <cwillu> Bulltitan: okay, what does sudo mount /dev/sda /mnt say?
[02:38] <cwillu> Bulltitan: (pastebin as well)
[02:38] <sparr> short of running my own repository mirror and keeping a symlink updated, is there any way to always use the latest ubuntu packages without updating my sources every few months?
[02:38] <Flannel> sparr: what?  The same repositories keep updated
[02:39] <non|linear> hey karol..... to be honest, i can't really tell you.  i'm not sure if the network manager is buggy or what, but i've always had probelms until i get the wep key installed into keyring... i just have to sit there and keep entering the same thing that i know works until it accepts it.  maybe it's just me.  sometimes the "ok" button wull sotp wrking and that really sux
[02:39] <sparr> Flannel: i just had to switch from feisty to gutsy, and ill have to switch to hwhatever in 5-6 months

[02:39] <The_Giver> hi
[02:39] <The_Giver> anyone here uses beryl with a laptop?
[02:39] <The_Giver> on their laptop*
[02:39] <gcosmin_> can some one pls give me some hellp
[02:39] <Flannel> sparr: you just had to?  You know gutsy is pre-alpha, right?  You just keep upgrading to new versions every six months.
[02:39] <non|linear> karol, but just read the manual and make sure you're soing things right (that part is simple)
[02:40] <LuisGMarine> Hello I'm on Ubuntu AMD64, and i"m getting an error that says' Error: Dependency is not satisfiable: python
[02:40] <LuisGMarine> what do I do?
[02:40] <non|linear> do you have dhcp, and is it a consumer level router
[02:40] <Bulltitan> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21362/
[02:40] <sparr> Flannel: some of us cant wait 6 months for something that came out recently
[02:40] <jrib> LuisGMarine: what are you trying to do?  pastebin your command, the full error output and your /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:40] <kazol> I'm having trouble with setting up WEP in DD-WRT. Can someone please help me?
[02:40] <Jeruvy> gcosmin_ try preceding it with 'sudo ...'
[02:40] <non|linear> the_giver: yea beryl works on my  i915 laptop
[02:40] <Flannel> sparr: gutsy isn't the way to go.  Personal you'd be better off with debian unstable instead of ubuntu.  Soemthig with rolling updates.
[02:40] <LuisGMarine> jrib I'm trying to install Bitpim, on Ubuntu Feisty AMD64
[02:41] <cwillu> Bulltitan: make sure you put my name in the line; I only noticed your last message by fluke :p
[02:41] <Bulltitan> :P ok sorry
[02:41] <cwillu> hmm
[02:41] <gcosmin_> Jeruvy I have that in  /var/log/messages i try to use nxfree
[02:41] <sparr> Flannel: i moved from debian experimental/incoming to ubuntu, because ubuntu has better desktop integration.  it was a tough decision.
[02:41] <Flannel> !prevu | sparr
[02:41] <ubotu> sparr: prevu is an automated, personal backporting utility. Check out https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Prevu for more details
[02:41] <cwillu> anyone know how to convert a localized error message back to english so I can help Bulltitan?
[02:41] <LuisGMarine> jrib: and the error came from Gdebi, while googling I came across a thread that said I need some libs named bitpim-libs, found a package for AMD64 on it on some debian package website, and when I tried installing it, that's the error I got
[02:41] <Flannel> sparr: check that out, if you want specific things backported from newer versions.
[02:41] <Bulltitan> yep
[02:41] <The_Giver> non|linear, i got beryl working too
[02:41] <jrib> LuisGMarine: bitpim is in the repos though, why use a deb?
[02:42] <The_Giver> but i mean the battery meter is messed up
[02:42] <LuisGMarine> 64-bit?
[02:42] <kazol> Is there a way to upgrade to WPA in addition to WEP in the Network Manager?
[02:42] <Bulltitan> it says that i need to specify the file system
[02:42] <jrib> LuisGMarine: yes
[02:42] <LuisGMarine> jrib: so sorry, most of have overlooked it, let me check again!
[02:42] <sparr> Flannel: if i wanted that much hassle i would have stuck with debian or gentoo
[02:42] <The_Giver> it  used to work.. but i think i fugged something up but i cant figure it out
[02:42] <non|linear> the giver: cool what card?
[02:42] <Flannel> sparr: but really, ubuntu is a release based distro.  debian is much more suited for what you want.
[02:42] <LucianSolaris> HELP HELP!!!  A botched reinstall of the proprietary ATI drivers and the removal of xserver-xorg-drivers-all (and subsequent reinstall), cumulatively have resulted in no more DRI and this from glxinfo: glxinfo: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[02:42] <LuisGMarine> jrib: lol, thanks, silly me!
[02:42] <The_Giver> now the battery meter states "Running on AC " ALL The time even though i am not
[02:42] <Flannel> sparr: There's *no* way to make ubuntu pretend to be a rolling distro.
[02:42] <cwillu> Bulltitan: k, try the mount line again, adding " -t auto " to the end
[02:42] <wir3> umm
[02:42] <non|linear> seems most of the recent cards (Ocoouple of years) are working pretty well ... not sure what is up with vista
[02:42] <sparr> Flannel: im well aware of that.  ubuntu's integration *SLIGHTLY* trumps debian's packaging schedule.
[02:43] <wir3> can anyone help me with Ubuntu and adding beryl
[02:43] <spikeb> if you want a binary rolling distro, arch is where you're at.
[02:43] <Bulltitan> cwillu ok brb with news
[02:43] <non|linear> lucian:
[02:43] <Flannel> sparr: then you'll just have to live with it.
[02:43] <cables> sparr, just find a 3rd party .deb or compile it yourself if you want the latest software. Or use Arch.
[02:43] <crdlb> LucianSolaris: which driver do you want to use?
[02:43] <non|linear> calm dwon, are you refereing to the unintall you just did
[02:43] <crdlb> fglrx or radeon?
[02:43] <DarlMcBride> Good day. I am Darl McBride, CEO of The SCO Group. Our company owns intellectual property contained in Linux.
[02:43] <Bulltitan> cwillu same message
[02:43] <non|linear> glx i thik
[02:43] <DarlMcBride> Sorry
[02:43] <sparr> spikeb: i want, foremost, a distro designed to "just work" out of the box.  in every possible way.  and ubuntu does that better than anyone else for gaming, music, video, etc.  now that ive settled on it, im trying to work around its faults
[02:43] <The_Giver> ATI Mobility Radeon X1600 (macbook pro)
[02:43] <LucianSolaris> crdlb fglrx does not work for my mobility radeon 9000.  I have set it to radeon (as X was complaining about not finding 'fglrx' as a driver)
[02:43] <spikeb> sparr: heh, that's about where i am at as well.
[02:44] <cwillu> Bulltitan: where is the drive from?
[02:44] <LuisGMarine> jrib: do I need another guide to get the USB stuff working right or no?
[02:44] <jrib> LuisGMarine: no idea, never used it
[02:44] <cwillu> Bulltitan:  i.e., do you know what filesystem is on it?
[02:44] <Bulltitan> what u mean?
[02:44] <The_Giver> anyone?
[02:44] <crdlb> LucianSolaris: then: sudo apt-get --reinstall install libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri xserver-xorg-video-ati
[02:44] <Bulltitan> ho yes
[02:44] <grimboy_uk> Hey, is there a way to get multiline input in xchat?
[02:44] <non|linear> lucian , you don't want to remove all of the xorg, jsut the irrelevant drivers.... but don't worry if you did, its' easy to get thexorg studff back
[02:44] <sparr> spikeb: what i really need is just a repo that has a symlink called "latest" that points to the most recent ubuntu version, so i dont have to edit my sources every 6 months
[02:44] <Bulltitan> cwillu it was fat32 then fat
[02:44] <cables> grimboy_uk, you can't do multiline in any IRC client without sending multiple messages.
[02:45] <Bulltitan> cwillu now is fat
[02:45] <LucianSolaris> crdlb and non|linear: this isn't gonna own my install, right?
[02:45] <cwillu> Bulltitan: hmm;  try -t fat then, although I'm surprised it didn't do that automatically
[02:45] <Bulltitan> cwillu ok brb
[02:45] <The_Giver> if you are using  a laptop.. can you check the services under System.... which do you have running.. do you have both power management going? or only one
[02:45] <spikeb> sparr: that'd be the proper way to do a third party repo, yeah
[02:45] <crdlb> LucianSolaris: you did that all by yourself
[02:45] <The_Giver> if so which
[02:45] <crdlb> LucianSolaris: it's not going to make things any worse
[02:45] <grimboy_uk> cables, Yeah, but I'm sure there's a way to get a multiline input.
[02:45] <LucianSolaris> crdlb thx
[02:46] <LucianSolaris> crdlb if this fails, then what?
[02:46] <noobdude^> ubuntu rox
[02:46] <non|linear> lucian, nope.  did you do an image before this?  cause it would be best to reinsatll your image and then get your video working clean without all of the intermediate goof-ups
[02:46] <cables> grimboy_uk, ok, I know what you mean, but I don't know how to enable it. Go to #xchat, maybe they'll know...
[02:46] <jrib> Talaman72: netstat
[02:46] <Bulltitan> cwillu ho boy it says
[02:46] <LucianSolaris> non|linear no idea on how to even create an image
[02:46] <grimboy_uk> Right, thanks.
[02:46] <Bulltitan> cwillu that it is an unknown file system
[02:47] <crdlb> LucianSolaris: that command should fix your error
[02:47] <non|linear> if not, i wold uninstall anything xorg and just instasll what srdlb suggested..and if it intalls xserver-xorg-videoi-all, uninstall that cuz that's one of the probs
[02:47] <LucianSolaris> crdlb & non|linear thx guys
[02:47] <LucianSolaris> now let's see if dri quits with an xserver restart
[02:47] <LucianSolaris> brb
[02:47] <steel_lady> My crazy machine says: Could not open /dev/sequencer. Probably another program is using it. But it can not be true. I just booted and I don't have music programs runing!
[02:47] <noobdude^> where can i find a list of programs available for ubuntu?
[02:47] <cwillu> Bulltitan: my bad, I guess the type is 'vfat'
[02:47] <jrib> noobdude^: do you have ubuntu installed?
[02:47] <cables> noobdude^, Applications>Add/Remove Applications
[02:47] <Flannel> noobdude^: in synaptic.  Or, packages.ubuntu.com
[02:47] <Bulltitan> cwillu np :P ill try again
[02:48] <noobdude^> thanx
[02:48] <a5benwillis> cwillu: Still there?
[02:48] <cwillu> a5benwillis: yep
[02:48] <noobdude^> i installed with the command line install for ubuntu
[02:48] <cwillu> a5benwillis:  this is what I do when I can't get help for my own problems :p
[02:48] <a5benwillis> cwillu: I cant find enough info abt that to know what to type in the boot options.
[02:48] <noobdude^> the other one didn't seem to wanna work
[02:48] <cwillu> a5benwillis: one sec
[02:49] <Jordan_U> LucianSolaris, Any luck?
[02:49] <non|linear> noobdude: but  he means in gnome (the gui), cause you've alreay installed tight
[02:49] <Bulltitan> cwillu it says "cannot read(i dunno how to transalte "superbloque")
[02:49] <Alonea> why does wireless assistant sometime connect to my network, and sometimes not...it is wpa. It was working for a couple days, but now I can't seem to get it to connect at all
[02:49] <Kyral_Laptop> Superblock
[02:49] <a5benwillis> cwillu:  get this "please append a correct "root=" boot option" when just typing "ide=nodma"
[02:49] <Jordan_U> Bulltitan, Super block
[02:49] <Bulltitan> ok
[02:49] <cwillu> Bulltitan: hmm, that doesn't sound promising
[02:49] <LucianSolaris> Jordan_U: No, is DRI a module that I can unload before restarting the X server?
[02:49] <crossout> anybody know were account information is stored?
[02:49] <non|linear> alonea, are you connecting at all to the router?
[02:50] <jrib> crossout: what kind of information?
[02:50] <LucianSolaris> Jordan_U I hate doing full restarts to get DRI working after an xserver crash or restart
[02:50] <Bulltitan> cwillu wait ill paste bin the info in the system log ok?
[02:50] <crdlb> LucianSolaris: after running that command, what did glxinfo say?
[02:50] <cwillu> k
[02:50] <CorpseFeeder> Does anyone know how to turn timidity off? I clicked a MIDI file link in the browser, and it's playing... but I can't work out how to stop it! aaargh! :)
[02:50] <Alonea> non|linear: nope. I get connection failed. Before if I turned the ascii checkbox on, then off, it would connect, but not anymore.
[02:50] <non|linear> lucian: hehe, graphics suck
[02:50] <LucianSolaris> Jodran_U / ANYONE: also, when I improperly kill the system (not using proper shutdown paths) resultes in journal replay, then a mounting failure
[02:51] <LucianSolaris> why?
[02:51] <non|linear> is it your network , or are you sure it's working (maybe it 's not your problem)
[02:51] <Jordan_U> CorpseFeeder, System -> administration -> System monitor or killall tmidu
[02:51] <crossout> jrib: well im specifically looking for my rhythmbox radio stations, I figure if I knew were account settings and preferences were stored I would find out the list I have and copy them
[02:51] <LucianSolaris> crdlb DRI was on
[02:51] <LucianSolaris> crdlb then after xserver restart, no DRI
[02:51] <non|linear> alonea: i meant do you own the router
[02:51] <Jordan_U> CorpseFeeder, *timidity :)
[02:51] <LucianSolaris> crdlb that is the problem i wanted to fix in the first place
[02:51] <eifzon> does anyone know a good ftp server client+
[02:51] <jrib> crossout: try ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/
[02:51] <The_Giver> hi

[02:54] <LucianSolaris> non|linear, when my computer starts up after a fresh restart, DRI works.  I restart the xserver (via ctrl+alt+bkspce or alt+e in kdm) and guess what, no more DRI until I restart the entire system

[02:54] <cwillu> Bulltitan: it kinda looks like the drive might be borked
[02:54] <cwillu> Bulltitan: does it work on any other machines?
[02:54] <Bree> How can i configure it to make grub load from /boot/boot instead of /boot/grub?
[02:54] <LucianSolaris> non|linear i know xorg is 7.2.0, i'm using the default feisty radeon driver

[03:00] <Pelo> eifzon, start with looking in synaptic for a package
[03:00] <jrib> eifzon: use APT, sudo aptitude install gftp.  Make sure you enable universe first
[03:00] <Alonea> non|linear: all the stuff there wants me to use knetwork manager and networkmanager (which is buggy)
[03:00] <Jordan_U> eifzon, Debian .debs may not work in Ubuntu
[03:00] <shooters> Pelo: found my problem, I had a key binding set for Alt in keyboard layouts ... thank you
[03:01] <noobdude^> where can i find a good media center for ubuntu?
[03:01] <cwillu> Bulltitan: you could try reformatting it
[03:01] <Pelo> Zambezi, gparted will let you reset the partition that's as close as you'll get I think
[03:01] <Bulltitan> cwillu thanks anyway ill try to get a linux enabled one tomorrow

[03:01] <Jordan_U> noobdude^, I have heard that Mythtv is good but hard to set up
[03:01] <hitmanWilly> noobdude^: mythtv has a lot of plugins you can set up

[03:07] <paul__> can someone help me with installing BitTornado?
[03:07] <paul__> I have the wxpython and python installed
[03:08] <Pelo> non|linear, canyou untangle your problem for me and split it in bite size portions ?
[03:08] <Boshi> Pelo: either the freeware or commercial versions)
[03:08] <bruenig> non|linear, you can't set permissions on those things because they will change the next time you mount it. You can set permissions via fstab that will apply to the whole disk but not on specific files
[03:08] <paul__> not sure what to do now..
[03:08] <non|linear> darklard are you talking to me?
[03:08] <bruenig> Yorkshire, what is it?
[03:08] <Jordan_U> non|linear, I don't know if linux supports changing NTFS permissions, you can get read write access though
[03:08] <cwillu> how can I turn off anything related to zeroconf networking?
[03:08] <LucianSolaris> crdlb: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21364/
[03:08] <non|linear> pelo.. yea, but it's kinda long
[03:08] <non|linear> they're fat
[03:08] <Yorkshire> bruenig: its my nvidia drivers
[03:08] <non|linear> hole on
[03:08] <darklard> non|linear nope... I don't think I am why?
[03:08] <crdlb> Yorkshire: ubuntu feisty?
[03:08] <Yorkshire> yeh
[03:08] <crdlb> Yorkshire: use the restricted manager
[03:09] <non|linear>  but i've been having problems mounting and changing permissions on a drive partition (1 of 5 - the other 4 work great).  It's a long story, but basically the fstab is OK and from what i can see the drive is no different from the other drives on my system (except that it's the Docements and Settings partition for XP). ... (TBC)
[03:09] <Jordan_U> cwillu, System -> Administration -> Networking ?
[03:09] <Yorkshire> I have tried it didnt work :D
[03:09] <LucianSolaris> crdlb I need to go, if you have thought up a fix after reviewing the paste, e-mail it to me at LucianSolaris@gmail.com
[03:09] <genii> Dquestions: If your box is running apm you can do:    apm -z
[03:09] <bruenig> Yorkshire, launch whatever you are launching with sudo
[03:09] <cwillu> Jordan_U: nope;  avahi-autoip still clobbers the config
[03:09] <Jordan_U> non|linear, In what way do you need to change the permissions?
[03:09] <paul__> can someone walk me through installing BitTornado on Feisty?
[03:09] <non|linear>  anyhow, when i look in the Hardware Info package everything is identical to the working dreives, except that the linux.fstab.mountpoint and linux.fstab.mountpoint entries (but it is properly entered in fstab)  I also just noticed that i'm gettin an error on boot: Mount special device /blah/blah/BLAH_BLAH does not exist.)  so then i have to manually mount it each time. (end)
[03:09] <lathiat> cwillu: erm, avahi-autoip clobbering what?
[03:09] <shooters> paul__: sudo apt-get install bittornado
[03:09] <cwillu> lathiat: dhcp'd config on a second network adapter
[03:09] <Pelo> non|linear, your documment and settings in XP is on a seperate partiton ?  could it be encrypted ?
[03:10] <lathiat> cwillu: i doubt that...
[03:10] <non|linear> jordan, well one of the fat drives won't mount in boot (get an eroor can't find the drive)
[03:10] <non|linear> no, it's xp home
[03:10] <cwillu> lathiat: no, it really does
[03:10] <lathiat> cwillu: avahi-autoipd configures on an alias, so it won't delete an existing address
[03:10] <Yorkshire> i put the following in terminal: sudo sh [Driver path]  and it started and said it cant install because there is an x server running , try to install as root
[03:10] <Jordan_U> cwillu, Clobbers what config?
[03:10] <lathiat> cwillu: most likely issue is that your DHCP is timing out, and it falls back to avahi-autoipd
[03:10] <lathiat> check the dhcp log
[03:10] <non|linear> and jordan, i am the owner of the drive, but can't change it to anythign as su or root
[03:10] <crdlb> Yorkshire: just install nvidia-glx-new
[03:10] <fizzmahon> qemu,vmware,or virtualbox for best effects and fastest speeds?
[03:10] <crdlb> Yorkshire: unless you have an 8xxx card
[03:10] <Jordan_U> Yorkshire, What are you trying to install and how?
[03:10] <Yorkshire> will that work for the 6200se?
[03:10] <crdlb> Yorkshire: yes
[03:11] <Yorkshire> ok , thanks alot
[03:11] <non|linear> and it's got the same exact options as another fat drive which work=s, the only diff is that it won
[03:11] <cwillu> lathiat: eth0 is statically configured, eth1 is dhcp;  eth0 comes up, eth1 gets an address (I can ping google for instance), and a few seconds->minutes later, eth1 goes unconfigured, and the avahi alias for eth1 comes up instead
[03:11] <Dquestions> genii, i have apm i guess... but that doesnt work
[03:11] <non|linear> jwon't boot
[03:11] <crdlb> Yorkshire: in what way didn't the restricted manager work?
[03:11] <Pelo> non|linear,  are you sure it is a fat drive and not fat32 or ntfs ?
[03:11] <non|linear> i can post logs etc. if anyone interestd
[03:11] <lathiat> cwillu: well thats not avahi-autoipd clobbering it, thats network manager and/or dhcpd screwing up
[03:11] <Yorkshire> errr....i do it again and get hte info
[03:11] <davef> Has anyone recompiled the kernel on Feisty?  It bombs out after 2 hours with 'Checking module listings... Modules have gone missing: vboxdrv'  Where does it even get the idea I want this module???
[03:11] <shooters> paul__: worked?
[03:11] <LucianSolaris> crdlb: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21364/
[03:11] <lathiat> cwillu: and deciding to withdraw the dhcp and start avahi-autoipd for some reason
[03:11] <lathiat> cwillu: check the syslog for what dhcp says?
[03:12] <paul__> says I have another version installed
[03:12] <paul__> conflicts
[03:12] <m1r0> morning all
[03:12] <generalcarville> how can I share my pppoe connection with my atheros ap?
[03:12] <Yorkshire> right, i opened it and its just says nvidia accelerated graphics driver in use

[03:12] <crdlb> Yorkshire: so what makes you say it's not working?
[03:13] <Pelo> generalcarville, I trhink the forum might be a good place to search for info in your case

[03:13] <DARKGuy> Anybody know how can I limit my download speed for an application or my entire linux system in a shared internet connection ?
[03:13] <crdlb> LucianSolaris: the log says it's a drm permssion error, which is really odd if it works on boot
[03:13] <crdlb> Yorkshire: did you try nvidia-settings?
[03:13] <Yorkshire> i cant find them
[03:13] <crdlb> Yorkshire: it's a command
[03:13] <Pelo> DARKGuy, look in synaptic for a limiter package or someting similar
[03:13] <Yorkshire> oh, ok
[03:14] <Yorkshire> tsorry im new to linux
[03:14] <non|linear> it's fat32, but i've got another fat32 that worksfine , (and also i've got an ntfs that works fine, ),  the only differences i can think of are 1) it's the docs/settings partition, and 2) i have my firefox and thunderbiurd profile paths pointing there , using /windows/path/profile_blah rather that /media/sda6/windows/crap/profile (which i shoulda done)  but not sure why or if that could be the prob
[03:14] <Boshi> Why do i get a non clear sound when listening to music or watching movies?
[03:14] <Pelo> non|linear,  but does fstab say fat or vfat ?
[03:14] <Boshi> i think it's just with vlc

[03:14] <shooters> paul__: check private message
[03:14] <non|linear> fstab is OK, u want to see it?

[03:19] <Pelo> DARKGuy, maybe in here  http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[03:19] <non|linear> sure, it will take awhile, cause i don't use gparted
[03:19] <bruenig> non|linear, basically all you need to do is add two options to the line to set permissions, if you could give the octal permissions or explain what permissions you want exactly, I can tell you the option
[03:19] <jaded`> whats the command lcdis or something
[03:19] <Toma-> jaded`: can you please run "lspci | grep Ethernet"

[03:21] <bruenig> non|linear, didn't copy I presume
[03:21] <AndYouAreWho> Anyone capable of helping me understand exactly why my installation process freezing at the partition stage?
[03:21] <non|linear> not sure if i shold post that in here :Phrm
[03:21] <Pelo> AndYouAreWho,  try this way,  go back to the desktop ,  open up gpated from admin,   create your partitions there and then proceed wit the install  you'll only need to point to the partitions and not make new ones
[03:21] <Bree> And I dont know where to go from there because everything I read I dont know how to make sense of.

[03:23] <Frogzoo> non|linear: vfat - eww
[03:23] <Pelo> Bree,  ok I think I know how to help you now,    how many hdd do you have on that computer ?
[03:23] <LordLimecat> Pelo: forums are unhelpful with this issue--tons of people with the issue, no resolution
[03:23] <Bree> 2.
[03:24] <DARKGuy> Pelo: that's a nice link! and thanks :) but it doesn't have anything related to what I'm looking for :(
[03:24] <Pelo> Bree,  which hdd is ubuntu installed on ?
[03:24] <Bree> Should be the second
[03:24] <non|linear> i know... but lots of data on there and concerned about saftey
[03:24] <non|linear> like work data heh
[03:24] <Pelo> DARKGuy, I haven,t read it all yes  I thoght there migth be someting, it pretty complete
[03:24] <Toma-> jaded`: great. theres away to get broadcom wireless cards to work natively. gimme a sec and ill grab a guide for you
[03:24] <jaded`> ok thanks
[03:25] <Pelo> Bree,  and how many partitions on that hdd hand which one is ubuntu installed on ?
[03:25] <Toma-> jaded`: sorry for the late reply. ive got a nasty cold and had to clear out some stuff :S (gross!)
[03:25] <Pelo> and
[03:25] <AndYouAreWho> Is it possible...to copy the data off of the Ubuntu CD onto the harddrive through DOS or something, THEN run the installation process from that?
[03:25] <jaded`> Thats okay
[03:25] <AndYouAreWho> Totally wack idea.
[03:25] <Bree> 4 partitions and the dev 6 should have /boot while dev7 should have /
[03:25] <Flannel> !install | AndYouAreWho

[03:27] <Ry4n> is any one having problems with automount on feisty on external hard drives
[03:27] <aakashpujara> how do make firefox open a file with realplayer?
[03:27] <M4Ri_00_SH> please pm me if you have any idea
[03:27] <M4Ri_00_SH>  "kernel: IPv6 addrconf: prefix with wrong length 48"   ------------<   what is that in my syslog , i use only IPv4 right now .....trying to kill it .... any ideas?
[03:28] <M4Ri_00_SH> thank you
[03:28] <vircusr> hey guys is it possible to write and read to your windows partition from ubuntu?
[03:28] <bur[n] er> vircusr: yes
[03:28] <ajd17case> I'm having trouble mounting a samba share. If I use smbmount, the shares mount but I can't CD into them. If I browse to them in Nautilus, (smb://cndrr/samba) everything works fine. How should I be mounting them into my file system?
[03:28] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > vircusr (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:28] <non|linear> hey frogzoo, still working on my drive issues, which have totally expanded beyond what i thouhgt originally LOL
[03:28] <Pelo> Bree,  here is what you need to do,  ( assuming you giave me the correct info)     boot up the comp,  whenyou get to the boot meny,   select the ubuntu entry  and hit e for editing, find the line that is similar to  root (hd1,6)  and edit it to that ,  I can't remember how yousave and stuff but you will exit by hitting enter or the space bar I think   and then boot the ubuntu entry,   that should take you to ubuntu,  then you'll have to edit
[03:28] <Pelo>  /boot/grub/menu.lst with the same change to make it permanent
[03:28] <vircusr> thanks!
[03:28] <bimberi> ubotu: tell M4Ri_00_SH about ipv6 | via /msg
[03:29] <aakashpujara> hi
[03:29] <Ry4n>  is any one having problems with automount on feisty on external hard drives?
[03:29] <aakashpujara> where is realplayer saved on my computer
[03:29] <bruenig> non|linear, it would be fixed shortly with some nice pastes
[03:29] <aakashpujara> after automatix installs it?
[03:29] <bruenig> aakashpujara, hopefully it isn't
[03:29] <bruenig> !automatix | aakashpujara
[03:29] <ubotu> aakashpujara: 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
[03:29] <Toma-> jaded`: ok, looks like we have a driver for it already installed in feisty. you are using feisty right?
[03:29] <Bree> ..thats going to confuse me bunches, Pelo, but, thank you
[03:29] <ajd17case> What is the preferred way to mount a samba share on Feisty? A friend mentioned mount.cifs
[03:29] <jaded`> no
[03:29] <Toma-> jaded`: woops sorry, we dont.
[03:29] <davef> ajd17case: are you using options to set the uid and gid when you mount it?
[03:29] <Toma-> jaded`: dapper? edgy?
[03:29] <aakashpujara> oh....it works fine....I just want to know where any of my applications are saved
[03:30] <jaded`> i dont know what either of those are
[03:30] <ajd17case> davef: no I'm not. What should I be doing with those?
[03:30] <aakashpujara> after ubuntu installs any program (multimedia)
[03:30] <non|linear> bruenig:  what do you mean?
[03:30] <bruenig> non|linear, paste the info
[03:30] <ajd17case> davef: I'm doing: mount -t smbfs //cndrr/samba /mnt/cndrr -o username=ajd17,password=**,umask=0775
[03:30] <Bree> Would it be hd1 or sbd, Pelo?
[03:30] <Toma-> jaded`: run this in a terminal, 'cat /etc/issue'
[03:30] <jaded`> okay
[03:30] <non|linear> what info?
[03:30] <jaded`> done
[03:30] <davef> ajd17case: I use: sudo mount -t smbfs -o username=davef,uid=davef,gid=davef,rw //192.168.x.x/share localdir
[03:30] <Pelo> bree no that is something else , and I just realised that my line won't work

[03:31] <non|linear> u mean that?
[03:31] <non|linear> posted above :P
[03:31] <Bree> Er, eh, Pelo?
[03:31] <aakashpujara> hello?
[03:31] <The_Giver> so anyone know how my power management could be reset to be the way it was before?
[03:31] <The_Giver> now it is not for laptop.. since tehre is no close lid option
[03:31] <Frogzoo> ajd17case: use smbmount instead
[03:31] <aakashpujara> can anyone please help me with a simple question?
[03:31] <davef> ajd17case: The uid=ajd17,gid=ajd17 might help.
[03:31] <Pelo> Bree,  meet me in mp
[03:31] <jaded`> Toma- ubuntu 6.06.1 LTS \n\l
[03:31] <shooters> !question > aakashpujara
[03:31] <bruenig> aakashpujara, we don't support automatix
[03:31] <Frogzoo> ajd17case: or easier to use smb4k
[03:31] <aakashpujara> ok...that is fine...
[03:31] <aakashpujara> where is skype on my computer
[03:32] <aakashpujara> i only worked the pc's
[03:32] <Toma-> jaded`: youre running 'dapper drake' :)
[03:32] <bruenig> aakashpujara, how did you install skype?
[03:32] <Flannel> aakashpujara: 'which [stuff] '  where [stuff]  is the executable
[03:32] <aakashpujara> though ubuntu
[03:32] <jaded`> okay whats that lol
[03:32] <bruenig> aakashpujara, right but how?
[03:32] <ajd17case> davef: Actually... the plot thickens. My share only had symlinks in it, and I just added a testdir, and that works fine. So I can't mount symlinks... ideas?
[03:32] <aakashpujara> synaptic manager
[03:32] <puff> Hrm.
[03:32] <bruenig> !info skype
[03:32] <aakashpujara> or gaim
[03:32] <ubotu> Package skype does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[03:32] <AndYouAreWho> What is ACPI?
[03:32] <aakashpujara> ok what about gaim
[03:32] <aakashpujara> ?
[03:32] <bruenig> aakashpujara, skype is not in the repositories, did you get the tar ball and extract it or what?
[03:32] <shooters> !acpi
[03:32] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acpi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:32] <puff> My laptop is running about ten degrees hotter - averaged 55 with spikes to 65 before, now averaging 75.
[03:32] <AndYouAreWho> !
[03:32] <aakashpujara> i think
[03:32] <Flannel> aakashpujara: assuming skypes comand is "skype", type `which skype` and it'll tell you.  But *where* it is, doesnt usually matter.  Since its in your path
[03:32] <puff> Ever since I isntalled feisty.
[03:32] <Toma-> jaded`: you might want to simply use ndiswrapper, the broadcom solution will require compiling drivers from their website
[03:32] <aakashpujara> i friend helped me
[03:32] <AndYouAreWho> !acpi
[03:32] <puff> I *think* the fan is running.
[03:32] <aakashpujara> I just want to know where the files are saved
[03:33] <aakashpujara> ?
[03:33] <bruenig> aakashpujara, then it is where you extracted it, likely in opt where it should be
[03:33] <LordLimecat> quick question, how big is considered big for a logfile?
[03:33] <aakashpujara> please..thank you
[03:33] <aakashpujara> so much for helping
[03:33] <davef> ajd17case: There might be options in /etc/samba/smb.conf as to whether to follow simlinks.  Not sure.
[03:33] <aakashpujara> how do I acess the opt?
[03:33] <aakashpujara> access*
[03:33] <jaded`> i dont know how to use ndiswrapper
[03:33] <Flannel> !wifi | jaded`
[03:33] <ubotu> jaded`: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

[03:33] <bruenig> aakashpujara, or just open nautilus and go to /opt
[03:33] <puff> aakashpujara: It sounds like you need to read up some introductry tutorials on using linux in general, ubuntu in particular.
[03:33] <davef> Frogzoo:  Is smb4k something that can be automated into fstab then?
[03:33] <non|linear> bruenig: i just hope these aren't like udev issues or something
[03:33] <Araelius> ok here's my issue, I'm attempting to install 7.04 via the live disc and I currently use my HID-compliant Logitech 5000 Bluetooth Mouse and Keyboard set, when ubuntu is loading the mouse seems to work fine, but after it goes to the desktop I can't use either device, any ideas?
[03:34] <Toma-> jaded`: for the simplest method, install 'ndisgtk' its a gui to help you setup ndiswrapper
[03:34] <aakashpujara> ok...where is a good place to start
[03:34] <aakashpujara> ?
[03:34] <bruenig> non|linear, you don't appear to care at all, else a pastebin would be there and this would have already been solved
[03:34] <jaded`> can i find that in synaptic
[03:34] <non|linear> bruenig:  i've posted it 2 times
[03:34] <jaded`> 3234
[03:34] <jaded`> ops
[03:34] <puff> aakashpujara: Well, you might be best off starting with some sort of book.  Which book, I don't know, because I'm not up on intro-level ubuntu books.
[03:34] <aakashpujara> i basically want to get my firefox to open a file not thought mplayer but realplayer
[03:34] <non|linear> didn't you see it?
[03:34] <Toma-> jaded`: hopefully, yes
[03:34] <bruenig> !prefix | non|linear
[03:34] <non|linear> fsatb: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21365/   blkid (as root cause not sure): http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21366/
[03:34] <ubotu> non|linear: If you prefix your lines with the nickname of the person you're talking to, you have a greater chance that that person reads your messages
[03:34] <jaded`> let me search real quic k
[03:34] <aakashpujara> i can choose another application
[03:34] <ajd17case> davef: Yea, there's a 'follow symlinks = yes' option, but it's actuall not working either
[03:34] <aakashpujara> but I don't know where it is?
[03:34] <non|linear> i just pasted it again, can you see it?
[03:34] <aakashpujara> on the comp
[03:34] <shooters> Araelius: Go see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/bluez-utils/+bug/32415
[03:34] <jaded`> nope didnt find it
[03:35] <aakashpujara> is their I way I can search for it
[03:35] <jaded`> guess i have to google it
[03:35] <aakashpujara> it works fine...
[03:35] <AndYouAreWho> Can you start installation from Console Mode?
[03:35] <bruenig> non|linear, yeah, it is a good idea in a room of 1187 to prefix names
[03:35] <bo7is> j #sirena
[03:35] <bo7is> #sirena
[03:35] <bruenig> non|linear, ok so in order, the /dev/sda7 is good?
[03:35] <davef> ajd17case: Put a normal file in there to, just to make sure it's only symlinks it won't show?
[03:35] <ajd17case> davef: Nevermind, the uid/gid trick did it (probably in conjunction with following symlinks). Thanks for your help!
[03:35] <puff> aakashpujara: Ah, well, unfortuately you've put your finger on one of the most annoying things about ubuntu and linux in general, which is that people who make proprietary formats, like realplayer, seem to do their best to make it impossible to support those formats on open source.
[03:36] <non|linear> bruenig: oh, sorry :P
[03:36] <non|linear> yeap, ubuntu root
[03:36] <aakashpujara> well it works if I download the fine
[03:36] <aakashpujara> file*
[03:36] <puff> aakashpujara: Try google:  ubuntu firefox realplayer mplayer
[03:36] <aakashpujara> and then open it in realplayer
[03:36] <non|linear> bruenig: yes, that's ubuntu
[03:36] <aakashpujara> but I want to just open the file in realplayer
[03:36] <davef> ajd17case: Glad I could.
[03:36] <aakashpujara> that's all
[03:36] <puff> aakashpujara: I'm afraid I've always had problems with that sort of thing, and it's usually not important enough to me that I take the time to sort it out.
[03:36] <aakashpujara> everything works..I just can't find where any of the files are actually installed
[03:37] <bruenig> non|linear, by the way that second paste was just another copy of your fstab
[03:37] <aakashpujara> ic
[03:37] <Frogzoo> davef: if you want to mount smb shares through fstab, use cifs (mount then calls mount.cifs)
[03:37] <non|linear> bruenig: the strange thing is that sda7 (ubuntu) seems to be confusing itseld with sda6 in one folder
[03:37] <bruenig> non|linear, ok so /dev/sda1 is good or is there problems there?
[03:37] <aakashpujara> where is mplayer
[03:37] <aakashpujara> installed
[03:37] <puff> aakashpujara: From what I can tell, that's often true of the more technically advanced people here;  the more of a hardcore geek you are, the less time you have for toys liek realplayer, etc.
[03:37] <aakashpujara> thanx
[03:37] <non|linear> bruenig: aww bumr 1 sec
[03:37] <puff> aakashpujara: "where"?  See, this question doesn't really make sense in linux.
[03:37] <aakashpujara> i understand
[03:37] <Toma-> jaded`: ndisgtk is infact in the dapper repositories. have you enabled universe and multiverse yet?
[03:37] <puff> aakashpujara: At least, nto at your level.
[03:37] <bruenig> aakashpujara, things are installed in a lot of places, do "dpkg -L mplayer" to see
[03:37] <aakashpujara> i understand
[03:37] <davef> Frogzoo: why that versus smbfs?
[03:38] <puff> aakashpujara: Part of what makes Ubuntu so handy is that it has a whole, incredibly smart system for managing installs.
[03:38] <aakashpujara> ok..thanx
[03:38] <aakashpujara> thanx....
[03:38] <bruenig> puff, pretty much every distro does
[03:38] <Frogzoo> davef: simply cos mount doesn't understand smb, but does cifs, (see man mount)
[03:38] <aakashpujara> i was also interested in installing beryl
[03:38] <bruenig> !beryl | aakashpujara
[03:38] <ubotu> aakashpujara: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[03:38] <aakashpujara> but I had read that it is slightly difficult
[03:38] <puff> aakashpujara: Don't worry about where the files are, at least not at your level, but rather worry about learning "package management" in linux (and ubuntu particularlly).
[03:38] <non|linear> bruenig: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21367/ (i alqays ctrl+c on accidnet)
[03:38] <jaded`> Toma- its installed but i cant find it to use it
[03:39] <puff> bruenig: Yeah, but they mostly suck, except for debian (and now ubuntu) :-).
[03:39] <Necrodrako> im using ubuntu 7.04, my sound card jsut went awol, it wont show up in sound preferences, and wont play any dounds
[03:39] <davef> Frogzoo: I've used smbfs for years.
[03:39] <aakashpujara> meaning...
[03:39] <Toma-> jaded`: hit alt+f2 then put this into the run box "gksudo ndisgtk"
[03:39] <aakashpujara> like wine for instance...how does it actually work...
[03:39] <bruenig> puff, I don't know, tgz is pretty good, simple at least
[03:39] <aakashpujara> does it create a virtual machine
[03:39] <aakashpujara> ?
[03:39] <Toma-> jaded`: it probably has a menu entry somewhere in system prefs, but you only really need to run it once
[03:39] <Frogzoo> davef: nice, so have I
[03:40] <puff> aakashpujara: "package management" is the general phrase for the various ubuntu tools and systems (apt, aptitude, dpkg, the ubuntu repositories, distributions and releases, etc) that are used to manage installing applications on ubuntu.
[03:40] <aakashpujara> thank you soo much puff for everything....
[03:40] <puff> bruenig: tar/gzip?
[03:40] <aakashpujara> ic...
[03:40] <jaded`> Toma- it brings me to a screen where i nneed to located an inf file
[03:40] <bruenig> non|linear, ok the first thing I would do since sda1 appears to be having trouble with uuid, is change it to /dev/sda1, like this (line 8) http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21368/
[03:40] <Necrodrako> im using ubuntu 7.04, my sound card just went awol, it wont show up in sound preferences, and wont play any sounds, can anyone help me
[03:40] <bruenig> puff, tgz is slackware package
[03:40] <aakashpujara> how would I manage these packages?
[03:40] <puff> bruenig: AH, tar/gzip/make :-).
[03:41] <Toma-> jaded`: fantastic. slap your driver disk in and choose your drivers .inf file
[03:41] <Flannel> aakashpujara: synaptic is the usual Gnome GUI.  System > Administration > Synaptic Package Manager
[03:41] <Toma-> jaded`: ahhhh.. laptop... did you get the drivers for the machine on a disk?
[03:41] <Necrodrako> im using ubuntu 7.04, my sound card just went awol, it wont show up in sound preferences, and wont play any sounds, can anyone help me
[03:41] <bruenig> puff, it is tarred but it is binary. It is like deb is just an ar archive with tarball inside of it
[03:41] <puff> aakashpujara: Google on: ubuntu package management tutorial
[03:41] <aakashpujara> ok
[03:41] <aakashpujara> thanx
[03:41] <jaded`> its all built into the gateway installation disk for reloading windows
[03:41] <aakashpujara> bye
[03:41] <puff> bruenig: Oh, this is somethign new?  Doesn't sound slack at all!
[03:42] <puff> bruenig: But I'll bet it doesn't do dependency management...
[03:42] <defcon> hey anyone know why my ubuntu all of a sudden stopped mounting my windows disk
[03:42] <Toma-> jaded`: so its on the disk? can you fin the driver?
[03:42] <defcon> how do I fix it
[03:42] <Necrodrako> im using ubuntu 7.04, my sound card just went awol, it wont show up in sound preferences, and wont play any sounds, can anyone help me
[03:42] <non|linear> bruenig:  OK.  (is this because it's not reporting UUID in blkid?)
[03:42] <bruenig> puff, depends, you have gslapt which will do it, I use zenwalk which is derived from slackware and uses tgz but has its own package management repos through "netpkg" which tracks dependencies
[03:43] <juxtaposition> DCC SEND STARTKEYLOGGER 0 0 0
[03:43] <puff> bruenig: Sounds like the rest of the world is catching up to debian finally.

[03:43] <jaded`> i can look

[03:44] <puff> bruenig: And in fact there's now apt-for-redhat, for example.
[03:44] <bruenig> puff, it isn't that hard, I could write package management system in bash that tracked dependencies, all you need is a small text file with dependencies listed and your good to go
[03:44] <non|linear> Bruenig:  OK, and can i just comment out the old one with #?  or shoudl i take it out completely
[03:44] <puff> bruenig: Yeah, but you need the dependencies.

[03:45] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal
[03:45] <Healot> !console
[03:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about console - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:45] <RememberPOL> How can I get a list of available versions of a package able to be installed by apt-get?
[03:45] <Healot> !tty
[03:45] <ubotu> To get to the tty terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login).
[03:45] <bruenig> lathiat, it really isn't that hard if you keep it simple, for instance gentoos portage is in bash and python
[03:45] <Toma-> jaded`: cool. if you cant find it, just grab the drivers from your manufacturers website
[03:46] <puff> bruenig: Ultimately, everything's a matter of time and energy, speaking of which, I better devote my time to figuring out this fan thing before my laptop's excess energy destroys it.

[03:46] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:46] <Frogzoo> RememberPOL: synaptic?
[03:46] <bruenig> non|linear, just change it like I did in that link I sent you
[03:46] <LjL> Toma-: he's been worse than banned, don't worry
[03:46] <RememberPOL> Frogzoo: Doesn't that list just the latest version? (i'm talking about old versions)
[03:46] <Toma-> ahh :>
[03:46] <RememberPOL> (for downgrading)
[03:46] <non|linear> breunig: ok just as u said, done
[03:46] <Frogzoo> RememberPOL: right click - show version
[03:46] <bruenig> non|linear, so /dev/sda6, what are you wanting there
[03:47] <defcon> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21369/
[03:47] <bruenig> non|linear, oh I guess first I should ask with /dev/sda1, what permissions you wanted
[03:47] <non|linear> well, mainly that it will mount on boot like the others
[03:47] <non|linear> on sda1 i would like just read for everyone
[03:47] <non|linear> bruenig: on sda1 i would like just read for everyone
[03:48] <RememberPOL> Frogzoo: How about a command-line equivalent?
[03:48] <bruenig> non|linear, (line 8), see the fmask and dmask options, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21370/
[03:48] <cwillu_> lathiat:  so, NetworkManager, eh?  :)
[03:48] <cwillu_> Okay, so killing and restarting NetworkManager made the connection come back, and then go away again after 99s.
[03:48] <shooters> defcon: ok, pastebin the following values "sudo vol_id /dev/sda1" and "sudo vol_id /dev/sdb2"

[03:51] <aroo> somian[1] , I'm not psychic and I'm guessing no one else in here is, so you're going to have to state your problem if you want help
[03:51] <bruenig> somian[1] , they have a development category, if you put it in the desktop file it will show up
[03:51] <non|linear> bruenig: ok did that

[03:53] <RememberPOL> Frogzoo: Again, that just lists the latest version, not available older versions (for downgrading) :|
[03:53] <sear_yoda> bruenig, it doesn't say anything, just goes back to the command prompt
[03:53] <islan> puff, hm, nope, that's not on there
[03:53] <somian[1] > In short, being an IRC troll.
[03:53] <Frogzoo> RememberPOL: shows older versions for me...
[03:53] <puff> cwillu_: Ah, thanks, I'll try that.
[03:53] <Frogzoo> RememberPOL: eg: apt-cache show wine | less
[03:53] <somian[1] > Anyone in here who can support, not just talk about support?
[03:54] <puff> sear_yoda: Check the process list (ps -ef | fgrep firefox) and see if the process is out there.

[03:56] <Sam_> whichi is better to use, i want it for windows an linux computers
[03:56] <bruenig> jramsey, pick what you want to boot into at login
[03:56] <Frogzoo> somian[1] : are there any programs under that subcategory? maybe it's being removed due to emptiness
[03:56] <jramsey> bruenig, will try now txs
[03:57] <Jordan_U> jramsey, Yes, sudo apt-get remove kubuntu-desktop --auto-remove
[03:57] <Sam_> yeah
[03:57] <jramsey> Jordan_U, will that reenable gnome on boot?
[03:57] <bruenig> Jordan_U, trick: sudo apt-get autoremove
[03:57] <non|linear> bruenig: i want read write execute for all users on all the other drives (is that umask=0007?)... not sure if you're waitin gfor me to read-only or not :P
[03:57] <cjae> do I need to use hdparm with the whole sda thing??
[03:57] <Jordan_U> bruenig, Yea, but then there is no tab completion
[03:57] <bruenig> non|linear, umask=000
[03:57] <non|linear> k
[03:57] <chamunks> anyone have any phpbb experience and now how to run BetterSMTP.mod
[03:57] <non|linear> bruenig: k
[03:57] <chamunks> I have no idea how to run a .mod file :S
[03:58] <cjae> do I need to use hdparm with the whole sda thing??
[03:58] <Jordan_U> jramsey, Yes, you can also use Gnome while KDE is installed by switching the "session" at the login window ( kdm / gdm )
[03:58] <bruenig> non|linear, so do you have something like this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21374/
[03:58] <Sean_F> anyone know if the Xi-Fi Fatal1ty will work with ubuntu fiesty fawn?
[03:58] <somian[1] > Frogzoo: that's a rational guess, but those categories have pkgs added to them; I've installed a lot of stuff using Synaptic
[03:58] <madcat`> is it possible to create a "custom" linux distro based on Ubuntu?

[04:00] <non|linear> ok
[04:00] <jramsey> Jordan_U, sry but i get "E: Sense auto is not understood, try true or false" when I run the sudo cmd
[04:00] <non|linear> bruenig: k hold on
[04:00] <DARKGuy> chamunks: if I'm not mistaken, you have to read the .mod file and do what the file says... it has a syntax to guide you on what to modify, create or delete in the phpbb documentation
[04:00] <shooters> defcon: after try "sudo mount /dev/sda1" and pastebin the output
[04:00] <somian[1] > bruenig: I could try that. Any idea what the commandline would be to get to that config?
[04:00] <defcon> ok
[04:01] <Jordan_U> jramsey, Are you sure you typed "--auto-remove" with no spaces?
[04:01] <chamunks> DARKGuy, thanks a tonne
[04:01] <DARKGuy> chamunks: welcome
[04:01] <bruenig> somian[1] , maybe gksudo alacarte

[04:02] <non|linear> .  I also get this error at boot
[04:02] <shooters> defcon: that means the mount was successful?

[04:02] <defcon> hehe
[04:02] <GAPeach> Don't know if this has been asked before, but I had trouble finding this particular problem on the forums.

[04:02] <reanjr> Hi, having problems getting the Ubuntu disc to boot.  Locks up after hitting Start or Install Ubuntu, disc spins, but no lights on the drive flash
[04:02] <Jordan_U> madcat`, Yes, it's not too difficult either if you know what a chroot is, you can just mount the liveCD squashfs, choot into it, then make a new liveCD with the new modified squashfs
[04:02] <GAPeach> My younger brother installed Ubuntu v. 7.04 from a CD.
[04:02] <non|linear> bruenig: or shold i delete uuid  and replace with sda6?
[04:02] <bruenig> non|linear, right

[04:03] <bruenig> non|linear, yeah i didn't know it was saying that, you can always switch those out
[04:03] <owh> Greetings. Is there a way that I can ssh into a machine and have the local user watch (and record) what I'm doing, so they can learn from the experience?

[04:04] <junior> to perdido aqui
[04:04] <defcon> shooters, thankyou so much :)
[04:04] <reanjr> owh: ~/.bash_history keeps a record of everything your typing at the terminal.  It's a start
[04:04] <madcat`> Jordan_U: I *used* to know what chroot is ;)  squashfs?
[04:04] <shooters> defcon: then do "sudo mount /dev/sdb2" and hopefully it should mount without any problems
[04:04] <bruenig> somian[1] , what are you trying to do exactly, edit the .desktop files in /usr/share/applications if you want it to work for sure
[04:04] <shooters> defcon: np
[04:04] <non|linear> bruenig: K, sda6 mounted!  but i should try a reboot to confirm
[04:04] <ethercat> owh: I believe screen will allow you to do that
[04:04] <owh> shooters: Funnily enough, I have that man page open, but I cannot determine how I can have two users attached.
[04:04] <xzcvczx> is anyone using dpap?
[04:04] <Jordan_U> jramsey, You can get the same effect in dapper by installing / removing using aptitude instead of apt
[04:04] <bruenig> non|linear, reboot does that
[04:05] <defcon> shooters, will these automount? and why do you think this happened
[04:05] <somian[1] > Trying to add categories (Programming, System) to the main menu, bruenig
[04:05] <bruenig> somian[1] , are you trying to move applications to those categories?
[04:05] <bimberi> somian[1] : new menus don't appear until they have enabled entries within them
[04:05] <Boshi> why does the sound get shitty when i raise the volume in vlc?
[04:05] <jramsey> Jordan_U, ahh a magic control file is created with the latest that isn't with dapper; ok so is there another way to get kubuntu uninstalled ... ahh i just saw ur response ok
[04:05] <owh> reanjr: The bash log would cover the recording part of the interaction, but not the watching.
[04:05] <GAPeach> Okay, I'll start over. Sorry about that. My younger brother installed Ubuntu 7.04. It's a dual-boot setup with Windows XP SP2. Ubuntu works great, but while Windows XP is listed in GRUB, whenever he or I try to boot into it, it will say it  is loading, then nothing happens after a few minutes.
[04:05] <owh> ethercat: Do you know how I can have two people connected to the same screen?
[04:05] <somian[1] > Main Menu being the flydown when you click "Applications" in (Gnome) Ubuntu in the corner.
[04:05] <non|linear> bruenig: oh that's essentially same as reboot?  great!!! thank you so much, i've been worrying/putting that off for over a week!
[04:06] <RememberPOL> okay say I want to downgrade vnc4server to version 4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu1 ....how might I do this?
[04:06] <bruenig> somian[1] , if there is nothing in a category, it doesn't show up, so you have to put something in it
[04:06] <ethercat> owh: I am looking for a link for you now
[04:06] <tovella> owh: i've used screen to multiplex screens, but will it actually allow a remote user to see what ur doing?
[04:06] <non|linear> bruenig: it would've taken another week more if i had to do it by myself, athanks!!!!
[04:06] <owh> ethercat: Tah.
[04:06] <shooters> defcon: they should automount, mount wasn't able to recognize the UUID specified in /etc/fstab, I removed the UUID for those 2 drives and replaced them with their /dev equivalents... I should work without any problems now
[04:06] <owh> tovella: That I don't know, hence my question :)
[04:06] <somian[1] > bruenig: Add/Remove ... under Applications?
[04:06] <shooters> *it
[04:06] <preaction> tovella: you can set up a multi-cast screen using the -X switch (if i remember correctly, read the manpage)
[04:06] <illriginal> Hey guys, I'm trying to install this windows program that mods discs for ps2... but for some reason when it opens the shadow becomes the foreground and not the background. Is there anything I can do to view this program?...
[04:07] <ethercat> owh: it looks like this link has the info you need http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/6340
[04:07] <bruenig> somian[1] , no, are you trying to put a particular program under these new categories
[04:07] <defcon> shooters, thanks again, you rock ;)
[04:07] <tovella> preaction: that sounds really cool - so i could use it to teach my god son.
[04:07] <ethercat> owh: just do a search on that page for 'multiple users'
[04:07] <owh> Tah
[04:07] <bruenig> somian[1] , like do you have something installed that you want to go in the programming submenu you are trying to create or not?
[04:07] <somian[1] > bruenig: I have numerous applications installed and checked under each category that i am trying to add to the Main Menu
[04:08] <madcat`> actually... I wonder if I could just change the theme for X and what shows up when you check the version, and call it good enough
[04:08] <bruenig> somian[1] , ok you are trying to move them from other categories?
[04:08] <Jordan_U> jramsey, You can also just get somebody with a vanilla dapper to apt-get install kubuntu ( then say no as you just want the list of packages, they wouldn't actually need to install them ) and then apt-get remove <list of packages>
[04:08] <wiseelben> what are the disadvantages of buying a Dell computer now (before dell officially supports Ubuntu) if I am going to put ubuntu on it myself? I SHOULD have access to all the tools/drivers that dell writes (if any) right?

[04:08] <ethercat> owh: that article actually kind of leaves you hangin but will point you in the right direction
[04:08] <somian[1] > Sorry for the typos.
[04:08] <gooch> anyone know how to fix an error when starting amsn where it can't tls?
[04:08] <owh> Hmm, ethercat, that's got some setuid root fun:(
[04:09] <somian[1] > bruenig: It's a real malfunction.
[04:09] <Sam_> anyone here good with vpn
[04:09] <bruenig> somian[1] , I am trying to figure out whether or not these applications are already in the menu and that you are trying to move them to this new subcategory or if they don't exist at all. Be cooperative, this isn't that hard
[04:09] <LuisGMarine> Hello I'm trying to install Doom 3 , but it gives me an error that I don't have write permissions to /usr/local?
[04:09] <Frogzoo> wiseelben: I would assume Dell will preconfigure things to match their standard build
[04:09] <somian[1] > bruenig: Just trying to do what i said. Not trying to move anything,. Just trying to get the Main Menu to show categories besides the limited list it started with.
[04:09] <LuisGMarine> I thought /usr was owned by the user, not root?
[04:09] <loco_aullador> Hi anybody knows what does the pakage rssh molly-guard? is some kind of security pakage for ssh?
[04:09] <darklard> My laptop starts getting REALLY hot anyone with a clue on this one or a link?
[04:09] <Jordan_U> wiseelben, No, the computers they sell now are not guareteed to have Linux drivers, and they Dell will probably not be releasing drivers for current hardware but choosing hardware for thier future comps that have linux drivers already
[04:09] <somian[1] > bruenig: I am being extremely cooperative, but running out of hope.
[04:09] <Frogzoo> Sam_: there's howtos about the net - just google linux vpn
[04:10] <preaction> tovella: looks like it's the -x switch, but i've not tested what will happen when you're both on the same window of screen at the same time
[04:10] <bruenig> somian[1] , it will not show a category with no applications in it. It won't show empty menus. So you have to put something in these new subcategories for it to work is what I and others have told you
[04:10] <mirak> hi
[04:10] <somian[1] > bruenig: You are grasping at straws because you don't believe that this malfunction could occur.
[04:10] <Chirvo> gooch: Check if you have installed tcltls
[04:10] <mirak> when I change fbset timings I get an error : ioctl FBIOPUT_VSCREEBINFO: Invalid argument
[04:10] <owh> preaction: Aha, there is a multiuser on|off mode, not with -X, but it's there.
[04:10] <somian[1] > bruenig: And how many times do i have to tell you that there are entries in each of these categories?
[04:10] <gooch> chirvo: lemme try
[04:10] <owh> Thanks all.
[04:10] <bruenig> somian[1] , how can there be entires in categories that don't exist?
[04:10] <tri3axe> 8800gtx is running hot..78C  and fan speed is at minimum..and i have no idea how to turn it up in ubuntu..Halp!
[04:11] <tovella> preaction: thanks - i'll have to do some checking on it.
[04:11] <somian[1] > bruenig: Is it my fault you aren't reading? Is that what means "cooperative" That if I don't repeat myself 3 0 times I am not being cooperative?
[04:11] <aroo> It's like watching a trainwreck
[04:11] <wiseelben> Jordan_U: so you are saying that dell might release new hardware with their ubuntu options?
[04:11] <darklard> tri3axe: I have same problem!
[04:11] <aroo> I tried helping somian[1]  but he screamed at me and called me a troll
[04:11] <somian[1] > Ok, Bugyy Ubuntu and no help on #ubuntu. Blogged.
[04:11] <Toma-> tri3axe: nvclock can control fan speed, not sure it the 8xxx series up supported yet
[04:11] <somian[1] > Bye.
[04:11] <bruenig> somian[1] , you can't be asking me how to create a category and then at the same time say that there are programs in these categories, you see where the problem is on my part
[04:11] <reanjr> LuisGMarine: no /usr/local is for user stuff that is only specific to the local installation, but can only be written by root
[04:11] <Boshi> why does the sound get shitty when i raise the volume in vlc?
[04:12] <darklard> Toma: maybe that's why the nVidia drivers aren't workin' well
[04:12] <craigbass1976> Maybe I'm screwing this up, but I fire up amule, have the appropriate ports open I think on my firewall, and can't get a list of servers.   The bunny just keeps goin, and going, and going...
[04:12] <tri3axe> nvclock where do i get that?
[04:12] <craigbass1976> !amule
[04:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about amule - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:12] <LuisGMarine> reanjr: yeah , I just dug something else on google.  Apperently people use the sudo command for the installer, I thought it was some bug with AMD64
[04:12] <gooch> chirvo: what does "tcltls set to manual installed." mean?
[04:12] <darklard> tri3axe system > administration > synaptic package manager
[04:12] <Jordan_U> wiseelben, Or use current hardware but make sure that the combination of hardware they use is all harware with open source drivers, IE they won't use ATi cards but use their current intel cards instead
[04:12] <Toma-> tri3axe: its in the repositories, but you might need to get the 0.8beta2 version from their website
[04:12] <lontra> hi i have a quick question ... i was using ubuntu but my synaptics touch pad was essentially useless because whenever i was downloading at a fast speed or using update-manager or run apt it would jump all over the screen or crash.  now i'm using debian and the synaptics mouse works great but i have other issues.  i am curious if this is an easy problem to fix in ubuntu.
[04:13] <jramsey> Jordan_U, txs for ur help i'll just change to gnome on login (it's the default now)
[04:14] <reanjr> Anyone know of workarounds to get a F.F. install disc to boot?  It locks up after hitting start...
[04:14] <wiseelben> Jordan_U: right, I see what you mean. I'm looking at a laptop with an integrated card anyways (and wireless, etc seems to be workable after searching the forums) so I think i'll just get it now.
[04:14] <Jordan_U> lontra, You can use the same *source* package from debian on Ubuntu, that should solve your problem with Ubuntu, there is probably another fix also ( note you *cannot* use the binary .deb, only the source package )
[04:14] <non|linear> bruenig: one thing tho, now sda6 and sda7 (file system) are unknown:unknown and read-only for everyone... the other 2 drives OK tho
[04:14] <Chirvo> gooch, dunno. Go and open a console and type "apt-get install --reinstall tcltls"
[04:15] <Chirvo> gooch, That will reinstall the package.
[04:15] <gooch> chirvo: yeah that's what im trying now....it said it was also gonna remove amsn which might be a good thing
[04:15] <bimberi> It's unfortunate when people come here, don't communicate effectively, and then blame others for it
[04:15] <GAPeach> I can't boot into Windows XP anymore. It's listed on GRUB, but all it displays is a message saying "Starting Up", then nothing happens. How can I fix this?
[04:15] <aroo> bimberi, such is life
[04:15] <non|linear> bruenig: and posted current fstab if you're still interested http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21377/
[04:16] <Flannel> GAPeach: What partition is XP on?
[04:16] <bruenig> non|linear, looks good
[04:16] <Chirvo> gooch, weird. Are you using the aMSN package included in Ubuntu or a external one?
[04:16] <GAPeach> Flannel, do you mean the C: drive?
[04:17] <Flannel> GAPeach: not quite.  Do you know which physical harddrive its on?  (primary master, primary slave, secondary master/slave?)
[04:17] <lontra> Jordan_U, well i just got one of my main problems fixed in debian ... so i might just stay with it ...
[04:17] <gooch> chirvo: i used automatix....never given me any problem before
[04:18] <GAPeach> Flannel, it's on the primary master.
[04:18] <non|linear> bruenig:  Ok, if fstab is OK, why are sda7 and sda6 giving no owners and read-only?  and won't let me change as su or root, to any owner or group
[04:18] <Jordan_U> lontra, Debian is certainly high on my list of favorite distros :)
[04:19] <Chirvo> gooch, If I werw you I would let apt-get to resolve the dependencies problem. I would remove aMSN, install tcltls and then reinstall amsn. But I insist, this is weird. :-)
[04:19] <Flannel> !automatix | gooch, Chirvo
[04:19] <ubotu> gooch, Chirvo: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[04:19] <lontra> Jordan_U, i just wish all my buttons worked in debian like they do in ubuntu
[04:19] <Chirvo> were*
[04:19] <Flannel> GAPeach: hmm.  You mind pastebinning your sources.list? (/boot/grub/sources.list open in a text editor, paste it into pastebin)
[04:20] <kishan> Hi i noticed a problem wheni am shutting down i see POWERNOWDs AIL is it a problemED   a
[04:20] <trix`G> quick question, I've been running kubuntu just fine for a long time now, but about 5 minutes ago I plugged in a big TV through S-Vid and booted up my system.  The TV worked great during bootup (clone mode) but as soon as X started, POOF no TV.  How do I get it back?
[04:20] <Jordan_U> lontra, You can probably use the config files from Ubuntu in Debian
[04:20] <GAPeach> Flannel: I can not do that right now. I'm posting on another computer
[04:20] <lontra> Jordan_U, do you know what would control brigthness or cpu frequency handling?  i've got a lenovo 3000 n100
[04:21] <kishan> si see powernowd as failed when i am shuting down is there a problem
[04:21] <gooch> chirvo and ubotu: i just reinstalled and am getting the same error when trying to run.....it wants to install tls and fails.....you're probably right....a reinstall might be easier
[04:21] <non|linear> bruenig:  also, in hardware info util, i have two sda6 now, one is /media/sda6 and one is /media/Resource
[04:22] <non|linear> bruenig: maybe i needa reboot
[04:22] <tri3axe> Toma how do i start the gui nvclock when i have installed it?
[04:23] <RememberPOL> seriously i need to downgrade vnc4server.... :|
[04:23] <RememberPOL> E: Version '4.1.1+xorg1.0.2-0ubuntu1' for 'vnc4server' was not found
[04:23] <Chirvo> A complete reinstall because of a dependencies problem? That's against my religion :-)
[04:23] <bimberi> non|linear: bruenig has quit.  Yes try a reboot
[04:23] <Toma-> tri3axe: run 'nvclock_gtk'

[04:37] <Sam_> using it as a VPN
[04:37] <Toma-> tri3axe: http://nvclock.cvs.sourceforge.net/nvclock/nvclock/
[04:37] <mdkaneda55> hmm. does anyone who doesn't have a dialup modem know if "Modem Connection" will even be listed in network settings if none is detected? i would assume if its in there it's working... but if ur going to the middle of nowhere, better not take any chances...
[04:38] <Sam_> need help getting windows computesr to go on that vpn so when im other places i can acess my windows computers

[04:38] <meezyfuh> can anyone tell me how to combine files that are split via file.001 file.002 etc?
[04:38] <Sam_> ok

[04:38] <tri3axe> to badd the forum dosent work on http://www.linuxhardware.org/nvclock/
[04:38] <Sam_> will you be done in like
[04:38] <loco_aullador> Hello anyone knows a different port than 22 for ssh? i'd like to change it for security reasons but i dont know which port i can put instead of 22
[04:38] <tri3axe> Toma ok thanks
[04:38] <Sam_> 1 hour
[04:38] <Falstius> meezyfuh: probably unrar, but that's just a guess.
[04:38] <eternaljoy> whats it mean when it says 1.5Mbps? whats that in KB/s?
[04:39] <Sam_> when your done come here #poptop
[04:39] <TasteeWheat> loco_aullador: you can pick any open port
[04:39] <kassah-lappy> mdkaneda55: will look... don't think my desktop has a modem...
[04:39] <Sam_> can you do that owh
[04:39] <Frogzoo> emacs in a terminal window used to jump words using 'ctrl + arrow' key combo, now inserts ";5C" - must be something simple to fix
[04:39] <meezyfuh> Falstius: it's a rar file split file.rar.001 file.rar.002, etc
[04:39] <ppj> Are the x64 ubuntu installs compatible with most applications nowadays?
[04:39] <owh> Sam_: Hmm, at this stage I'm thinking no, not in an hour, but I could not say. I'll see what I can do. No guarantees. You might want to have a google around before hand.
[04:40] <kassah-lappy> mdkaneda55: it's there on my desktop which doesn't have a modem
[04:40] <Frogzoo> meezyfuh: just  point unrar at the first one, it will pick up the rest
[04:40] <Sam_> ok
[04:40] <Sam_> thxs for the heads up
[04:40] <meezyfuh> ok lemme try
[04:40] <mdkaneda55> kassah-lappy: mine's onboard, in lspci output it's listed as: 00:0b.0 Communication controller: Agere Systems LT WinModem (rev 02)

[04:40] <tri3axe> Toma wich file should i download?  they all seem kinda old
[04:41] <kassah-lappy> mdkaneda55: don't get anything on a grep -i modem or winmodem
[04:41] <Falstius> meezyfuh: run unrar on the first file and it should find the rest automatically.
[04:41] <meezyfuh> it says it's not a RAR archive.
[04:41] <Frogzoo> has anyone tried getting hal to mount CF cards with the 'noatime' option?
[04:41] <antum> The one solution I've found is: http://tvtool.info/go.htm?http://tvtool.info/english/dummy_e.htm but that may take awhile for me to do, is there some way to fool ubuntu into thinking it has a monitor attached without making one of these?
[04:41] <meezyfuh> isn't there a copy option? or am i thinking of windows?
[04:41] <geokeratz_> ppj> no. unfortunately not. I'm running firefox32 now to have all the java and flash things when browsing. (that's a simple example)
[04:41] <owh> Sam_: Google for pptpd howto gave all kinds of good material.
[04:41] <Sam_> kk thxxs owh
[04:41] <Pokit> I've been trying to get xgl/bery to work. but not matter what I do, i end up getting a white cube.  any clues?  i'm using ati radeon x1800 and amd64
[04:41] <ppj> geokeratz_, ugh.
[04:41] <Toma-> tri3axe: id say (and this might or might not work) get the /src/nclock.c file and swap it with the 0.8beta2 you have
[04:41] <ppj> I just burnt x64
[04:42] <geokeratz_> ppj> :)
[04:42] <ppj> My last CD too
[04:42] <ppj> heh
[04:42] <Falstius> meezyfuh: copy what?  Its possible your rar file is corrupted.  Or meant to be a virus on a windows system.
[04:42] <RememberPOL> antum: sudo pico /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:42] <RememberPOL> edit the kernel section add  video=radeonfb:ignore_edid
[04:42] <meezyfuh> Falstius: it's like someone made a single rar file and split it up.
[04:42] <Mike> Hi, I am very new to linux. I will be putting it on my old Tecra 8000 laptop first. What version should I use?
[04:42] <antum> RememberPOL thanks! I'll try that out...
[04:42] <meezyfuh> if you had several text files for instance, and wanted to combine them into one, how would you do it?
[04:43] <datrigg> ok I have a major problem - every time my computer seems to slow down into acpi sleep mode, I cannot make ubuntu wake up to my desktop, I keep having to restart. Is this video related?
[04:43] <Falstius> meezyfuh: you would use cat.  cat file1 file2 file3 > big_file

[04:43] <sgrove> is pidgin in the ubuntu repositories yet?
[04:43] <Fructose> If I have a widescreen monitor and an ATI X1300 and just installed Feisty, what's the best course of action to get 3d acceleration and widescreen resolutions? Is there any way without manually modifying xorg.conf?
[04:43] <Flannel> sgrove: no.  Pigdin will be in gutsy

[04:44] <mboman> how does the /usr/src/modules/ structure work?
[04:44] <Smackeddown> anyone know if there is an apt-get for JRE ???
[04:44] <sgrove> awell, I just like the colors anyway
[04:44] <Falstius> meezyfuh: but I'd be really surprised if someone did that considering that rar is almost exclusively used to make multiple part archives.
[04:44] <Mike> It has only got 196 of ram:(

[04:44] <Flannel> Mike: Get the alternate CD to install
[04:44] <Sam_> wait i got aquestion
[04:44] <meezyfuh> Falstius: some people are stupid. he might have just made a single rar and used jsplit or something.
[04:44] <sgrove> heh, true, true
[04:44] <Fructose> Is there a better channel for support/getting noticed?
[04:44] <Flannel> Mike: but, Ubuntu will work, Xubuntu will work as well, and faster.  But alternate CDs are what you want
[04:44] <Toma-> tri3axe: hohoho. if only it was that easy. you need to compile it. id say you should 'checkout' the cvs
[04:45] <datrigg> fructose: not really
[04:45] <Sam_> for vpn use, so if i want to acess my comptuer at diff location. Before i leave i need that computer connected to the vpn. Then whe n iget to that location i need to login to the vpn and then teh computer will be ther?

[04:49] <Falstius> DerekS: try ls -la /media/disk
[04:50] <Falstius> DerekS: there is probably a .Trash folder.
[04:50] <DerekS> Falstius: negatory
[04:50] <Falstius> DerekS: that stinks.
[04:51] <DerekS> is there a scandisk type utility
[04:52] <Waddledee> Hey, can someone help me figure out why Ubuntu isn't starting for me?  I'm trying to set it up as a dual-boot (Windows on one hard drive, Ubuntu on another), and while it seemed to install fine, the computer went back into Windows when I restarted.
[04:52] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: because you installed windows after Ubuntu, didn't you?
[04:52] <Arthuro> MADSON :)
[04:52] <Arthuro> meia hora pra achar teu nick mano
[04:52] <DARKGuy> Hi, is there a way I can know which versions are available for a specific package ?
[04:52] <Mike> Flannel: I have less than 256 K of ram, which version of Xunbuntu should I use?
[04:52] <Fructose> !info ati
[04:53] <ubotu> Package ati does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[04:53] <Flannel> Mike: Alternate CD is the way to go, all the way
[04:53] <Bonkers-> anyone know why all of a sudden playing mp3 files with mplayer produces ahrsh noises with very faint music in the background? all other sound formats are fine as are all other sound producing programs
[04:53] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: nope.  Right after I installed Ubuntu, I restarted, but there was no option to boot into it.
[04:53] <Flannel> !ati | Fructose
[04:53] <ubotu> Fructose: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:53] <bur[n] er> Mike: there is only one version of xubuntu
[04:53] <Mike> Thanks..
[04:53] <bimberi> um, Dapper, Edgy, Feisty ?
[04:53] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: So you installed windows before ubuntu and now it boots into windows without question?
[04:53] <DARKGuy> Hi, is there a way I can know what versions are available for a specific package ?
[04:54] <ubuntubeginz> hi,does anyone know why some folders have *@* at the end of their names..
[04:54] <Sam__> hey guys
[04:54] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: that's correct.
[04:54] <bimberi> DARKGuy: you can search at packages.ubuntu.com - althought it will show only one version for each Ubuntu release
[04:54] <Sam__> so vpn question, how do i get my windows computer to be on the vpn, so that when i go to like library i can acess my comp there
[04:54] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: You might have messed up the part about installing GRUB on the MBR... (which you _will_ want to do).
[04:54] <Sam__> its windows
[04:54] <Sam__> do i jsut login to the vpn on this computer
[04:54] <Sam__> and its shared files are shared
[04:55] <Toma-> tri3axe: http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=21335
[04:55] <Sam__> then when i log in on the library, will the files com in there like a local network thingy???
[04:55] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: I wasn't asked anything about that during the install process, so maybe I haven't done it at all.  How do I go about it?
[04:55] <Sam__> or what do i have to do, im using Ppptd
[04:55] <Sam__> popotop
[04:55] <Waddledee> (BTW, I really love the LiveCD thing.)
[04:55] <_Elmore> question! I installed e17 and went to themes to change the theme, now, i changed the theme to "night-bling" and now it won't let me change the theme to anything else. it's really irritating too! anybody know how i can change the theme to something else?
[04:56] <_Elmore> i'm running 7.04 btw
[04:56] <Toma-> _Elmore: keep it in #e
[04:56] <_Elmore> ?
[04:56] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: Maybe reinstall ubuntu and look more closely (it has to do with disk partitions and such)
[04:56] <_Elmore> go to #e
[04:56] <Toma-> _Elmore: e17 = cvs + unstable and unsupported here. the channel #e will help
[04:56] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: all right, I'll give it a shot.
[04:56] <RememberPOL> good luck
[04:56] <_Elmore> ok thanks
[04:56] <Sam__> also is it normal for me to dissconent from internet
[04:56] <DARKGuy> thanks bimberi :)
[04:56] <Sam__> when i jion a vpn server
[04:57] <Sam__> like i cannot go on internet
[04:57] <Sam__> i can only go on vpn>???
[04:57] <tri3axe> Toma eew.. modulename?
[04:57] <czk> why my ide hd always shows standby under feisty: #hdparm -C /dev/sda: /dev/sda: drive state is:  standby
[04:57] <Toma-> tri3axe: nvclock id say
[04:57] <fastlikeacat> i'm trying to transfer files to  a external HD with is vfat and it says core dump exceeded or something like that
[04:58] <fastlikeacat> it will only copy 4gigs and the files are 4.4gigs
[04:58] <datrigg> ok I have a major problem - every time my computer seems to slow down into acpi sleep mode, I cannot make ubuntu wake up to my desktop, I keep having to restart. Is this video related?
[04:59] <tri3axe>  cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@nvclock.cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/nvclock co -P nvclock   ..that didnt work
[04:59] <GaiaX11> Is there another good browser for ubuntu other than firefox in the official repos?
[05:00] <MADSON> my name is madson  Arthuro

[05:00] <MADSON> yo amo lo united state
[05:00] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: okay, I've gone through the install menus.  A couple questions about location and language.  Then it asked where I wanted to install, and I said 'guided install', using the drive I'm devoting to Ubuntu.  It didn't ask anything about the MBR or GRUB.
[05:00] <boitono> Is there anything I should take into consideration when replacing the motherboard on a machine with an existing Ubuntu installation?
[05:02] <usr13> Could someone please help me share printer?  See /etc/cups/cups.conf at:   http://pastebin.ca/494129
[05:02] <usr13> Clients keep getting "host busy"
[05:02] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: there's an 'advanced' button that lets me choose a device for boot loader installation.  Should I touch that?
[05:02] <RememberPOL> yes yes :)
[05:03] <usr13> What other info would one need?  (To configure for sharing printer.)
[05:03] <Gruelius> what is a good rar program that has a GUI
[05:04] <Gruelius> usr13: you need to configure samba and cups, if you are not crazy about security it can be done easily
[05:04] <usr13> Gruelius: Ok, thanks.
[05:04] <tri3axe> Toma so i just replace the nvclock.c in the src folder? and then start to build the module?
[05:04] <Gruelius> actually you just need cups
[05:04] <QuixoticJ> Hi I'm looking for a windows emulation solution cna someone give me or point me where I can get reliable information. A friend of mine recommended win4lin is that worth checking out?
[05:04] <usr13> Gruelius: What configuration tool should I use?
[05:04] <Toma-> tri3axe: yeh give it a crack
[05:05] <Gruelius> but if you want to be able to select the computer on windows and connect you need samba
[05:05] <Gruelius> usr13: what printer do you have?
[05:05] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: okay, what should I choose?
[05:05] <usr13> Gruelius: HP5L
[05:05] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: what are the options? :)
[05:06] <Gruelius> ah, hp printers need extra things
[05:06] <zabin> hey im having a problem with my screen resolution
[05:06] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: anything about MBR? click that ^^
[05:06] <zabin> i only have one option for screen resolution to pick from
[05:07] <Gruelius> if you dont really need to be able to browse the printers through the network thing skip to the cups section in this guide, otherwise use all of this guide : http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/quick-samba-howto.xml
[05:07] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: it doesn't say anything about MBR.  It just has a 'Device for boot loader installation:' field.
[05:07] <Doud_93_> helo everyone, how can I download a file partialy from a command-line (wget?) from http servers
[05:07] <KNate> well this is a good bye from me, im going back to vista
[05:07] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: yeah so pick the 'main' device
[05:07] <LadyNikon> KNate: ha.. you will be back.
[05:07] <KNate> haha i know
[05:07] <Gruelius> zabin: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[05:08] <foutrelis> Doud_93_: wget -c to continue a download :)
[05:08] <KNate> if only i could get my sound to work id be staying
[05:08] <Doud_93_> foutreles: well I don't want to resume a download
[05:08] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: and if it's just an empty textbox then nevermind leave that blank and cancel..
[05:08] <QuixoticJ> Hi I'm looking for a windows emulation solution can someone give me or point me where I can get reliable information. A friend of mine recommended win4lin is that worth checking out? Not WINE but actual emulation
[05:08] <Doud_93_> foutrelis: well I don't want to resume a download
[05:08] <ChinaForge> Hello,I install vmware server on ubuntu 7.04,I have a trouble now,Guest system can't detect usb device,but first install usb device,second run vmware,usb device can detect,How to resolve?
[05:08] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: It says (hd0) in that field now.  Should it?
[05:08] <RememberPOL> yeah
[05:08] <zabin> gurelus: that will work but then my nvidia card comes back in the restricted driver list and then i have to reenable it again and then im back were i started
[05:08] <foutrelis> Doud_93_: What is that you want to do. Download half a file?
[05:09] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: You're sure when you're starting there's no GRUB screen for 3 seconds that says 'press esc' for a menu list?
[05:09] <RememberPOL> black screen
[05:09] <KNate> ill create a small partition and keep linux on it, untill then tata peoples
[05:09] <KNate> beryl is just so damn cool :(
[05:09] <Jordan_U_> QuixoticJ, So do you want to run WIndows in a virtual machine?
[05:09] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: you mean when I start the computer without the LiveCD in?  I'm sure.  It goes straight to Windows.
[05:09] <QuixoticJ> jordan_U_ ya I cant get the apps I need to work with wine so I need to emulate them or how ever that works im not sure ^^;
[05:10] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: Did you actually install to a hard disk?
[05:10] <Jordan_U_> Waddledee, Do you have Multiple HD's ?
[05:10] <Doud_93_> foutrelis: in fact, yes
[05:10] <SteveWrightNZ> remount / on /dev/sda1 RW after fixing errors - how ?
[05:10] <antiprophet> if you're looking to run in a VM, I highly recommend the free virtualbox program...works great with XP,Vista, as well as FreeBSD
[05:10] <foutrelis> Doud_93_: Interesting :)
[05:10] <Jordan_U_> QuixoticJ, What you would do would be to use a program like vmware to run windows in a virtual machine, I recommend vmware-server
[05:10] <Ironman273> Could someone help with a wireless network issue in Feisty? Please?  Before I shoot myself?
[05:10] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: yes.  Jordan_U_: yes.
[05:10] <SteveWrightNZ> Ironman273: shoot
[05:11] <davef> antiprophet: have you tried it with FreeBSD or OpenBSD?
[05:11] <Jordan_U_> Waddledee, Make sure that the one you installed GRUB to is the one that is set to boot
[05:11] <SteveWrightNZ> Ironman273: ask I mean  ;-)
[05:11] <QuixoticJ> jordan_U_ can you link me to it and possibly tell me or send me to a guide of how to set it up? antiprophet is what you and jordan recommended the same thing ?
[05:11] <Ironman273> I have a Belkin wirelesscard (F5D6020) that seems to connect to my network at random.  I've searched the4 wikis and forums bit no answeres
[05:11] <Waddledee> Jordan_U_: I was never asked to install GRUB during the 'install' process, so if it didn't do it automatically, I haven't a clue.
[05:11] <RememberPOL> Waddledee: Which version of windows? @.@
[05:12] <SteveWrightNZ> Ironman273:  /j #wireless
[05:12] <Waddledee> RememberPOL: XP.
[05:12] <zabin> any anyone tell me if they seen anything wrong with this? http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21353/
[05:12] <RememberPOL> hm, should be working
[05:12] <antum> RememberPOL are you still here?
[05:12] <RememberPOL> yeah
[05:12] <antum> oh right, you are.
[05:12] <Ironman273> SteveWrightNZ: ???
[05:12] <Jordan_U> Waddledee, It does do it automatically, try setting one of your other drives to boot before the one you currently have windows installed on
[05:12] <LucianSolaris> crdlb you there?
[05:13] <SteveWrightNZ> Ironman273:   /join #wireless  less traffic there
[05:13] <antum> Um I tried adding that line but nothing seemed to work... radeon something..
[05:13] <RememberPOL> you restarted?
[05:13] <antum> yep,
[05:13] <antum> I couldn't see a difference in booting... was there supposed to be?
[05:13] <SteveWrightNZ> remount root RO filesystem on /dev/sda1 RW after fixing errors - how ?
[05:14] <RememberPOL> antum: no
[05:14] <Waddledee> Jordan_U: I tried turning /dev/sda1 (where the Ubuntu install is) to have the Boot flag and /dev/sdb1 (where the Windows install is) to not have it; when I rebooted, I then got a message about there not being boot media in the device, so I changed it back.

[05:14] <eternaljoy> has anyone here succesffuly installed and ran Battle Field 2142 on Feisty using only Wine?
[05:15] <Jordan_U> Waddledee, I mean change which is set to boot in the BIOS settings
[05:15] <Toma-> eternaljoy: cant be done, yet.
[05:15] <antum> Anyone else know how to run a headless mac mini installation with Ubuntu?
[05:15] <Waddledee> Jordan_U: oh.  Well, I'll give that a try.  Wish me luck!
[05:15] <Jordan_U> Waddledee, Good luck :)
[05:15] <Flannel> antum: uh... pop the CD in?  thats 386 not PPC, right?
[05:15] <Flannel> antum: you'll want a monitor for installation
[05:16] <Flannel> antum: you want the alternate or server CDs, and remember to install ssh before disconnecting your monitor
[05:16] <antum> Flannel, I've got it all installed but Ubuntu wont boot without a monitor on the mac mini, I tried the bug fix at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/51519 but to no avail.
[05:16] <Pelo> can we install ntfs-3g in live cd mode ?
[05:16] <Jordan_U> Pelo, Yes
[05:17] <fizzmahon> anyone can help me get my virtual box working, giving me a cant create com error
[05:17] <tri3axe> Toma this it output from my attempt: http://pastebin.ca/494180  looks like there is somthing wrong
[05:17] <Pelo> Jordan_U,  easily enough ? I'm dealing with a noob in private
[05:17] <QuarkPup> ola
[05:17] <eternaljoy> Toma-: thats a lie!  as some ppl are playing it using Wine
[05:17] <jeff2> what is the best way to burn files to a CD with filenames greater than the 103 limit? I'm using k3b
[05:18] <Pelo> !ntfs
[05:18] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:18] <Pelo> !nfts-3g
[05:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nfts-3g - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:18] <Pelo> !fuse
[05:18] <Jordan_U> Pelo, Yes, just install it the same way you would install it on a regular machine following the ubotu link you just got :)
[05:18] <ubotu> Though it's still very unsafe, you can read about Ubuntu NTFS writing using fuse here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Lkraider/NtfsFuse
[05:18] <Pelo> !ntfs-3g
[05:18] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:18] <cables> What renders the fonts in Linux?
[05:19] <antum> Has anyone tried making one of these? Is there any danger of damaging the vide card? http://tvtool.info/go.htm?http://tvtool.info/english/dummy_e.htm

[05:19] <Toma-> eternaljoy: well ask 'some ppl'!!!
[05:20] <Flannel> Oh.  Er... Im just stupid.  Pelo already got it
[05:20] <eternaljoy> Toma-: im trying to find someone who did it
[05:20] <Toma-> tri3axe: well, looks like that diddnt work. goto #nvclock and ask them?
[05:20] <cables> pibarnas, not problems, but I'm just curious because subpixel smoothing is nice, but I like the way spacing looks better with Better Shapes, but Better Shapes blurrifies it.
[05:20] <Pelo> Flannel, ?
[05:20] <pibarnas> cables: why can't you try in a term dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config
[05:20] <cables> pibarnas, how would that help?
[05:20] <Pelo> oh right nvm
[05:20] <QuixoticJ> is win4lin anygood ? or should i try vmware first ?
[05:20] <pibarnas> cables: choose autohint.
[05:20] <cables> pibarnas, is that not enabled by default?
[05:21] <pibarnas> cables: nope.
[05:21] <cables> pibarnas, oh. Do you know where the config files are stored so I can save a good state before doing this?
[05:21] <jeff2> is it impossible to burn files with 103 more characters in their name to a cd in linux?
[05:22] <pibarnas> cables: you can use the same command to turn things over again.
[05:22] <Jordan_U> jeff2, If it is possible in  any OS then it is possible in Linux
[05:22] <jeff2> Jordan_U, is it possible in any OS?
[05:22] <Jordan_U> jeff2, That I don't know :)
[05:22] <tri3axe> Toma thanks..ill hang around a lil in that chan
[05:22] <cables> pibarnas, ok... what if I don't know what settings to use? I'm always scared of dpkg-reconfiguring things :(
[05:22] <zanth> good day, I've just upgraded to the current release and I keep getting errors when the nvidia drivers are to update
[05:22] <zanth> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21379/
[05:23] <levander> Has anyone successfully installed Netbeans 5.5 from the repositories?  I try to apt it, but I get instructions saying I have to download an install file from netbeans.org, place the file in /tmp, and hit ENTER.  I do those three things, and after I hit ENTER like the instructions tell me to, the same instructions come back up.
[05:23] <jeff2> Jordan_U, I believe the iso9660 has a length limit, but couldn't I burn my cds using a Linux filesystem, so I'm not limited by this filesystem?
[05:23] <BWolf_> is there a way i can install Kubuntu without reformatting and starting all over
[05:23] <pibarnas> cables: humm, I have seen a tuto somewhere, I'll look for it for u, wait a min.
[05:23] <manny> hello all
[05:23] <cables> pibarnas, that would be great
[05:23] <crdlb> BWolf_: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[05:24] <Falados> BWolf_: You may be able to do sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop
[05:24] <Falados> BWolf_: But grub will still be installed
[05:24] <pibarnas> cables: meanwhile, take a look at the visual (see feisty/ubuntu ones): http://www.flickr.com/photos/58883315@N00/
[05:24] <wiseelben> does anyone know if the default "Dell Wireless 1390b/g" found in dell laptop is compatible?
[05:24] <Falados> BWolf_: I mean gnome
[05:24] <zanth> and here is the full error from an apt-get dist-upgrade
[05:24] <zanth> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21380/
[05:24] <cables> pibarnas, ok :)
[05:24] <Jordan_U> jeff2, I don't know if you want to use ext3 ( or how you would do that ) could you just put the files in a zip / tar.gz file?
[05:25] <BWolf_> Falados will I beable to switch between the two GUI then
[05:25] <Fructose> Is there a good Linux alternative to uTorrent? (I find Azureus a little bloated.)
[05:25] <Jordan_U> wiseelben, Do you know what chipset it is?
[05:26] <davef> jeff2:  Don't you just have to turn off joliet?
[05:26] <Falados> BWolf_: I'm unsure if Kubuntu adds or replaces entries in the GDM =\ Although I'm sure someone must have done it on the forums before, check there for a similar question
[05:26] <antiprophet> Fructose: running the utorrent standalone with wine works extremely well
[05:26] <jeff2> davef, yeah, I just tried that - works like a charm :) thanks
[05:26] <manny> has anyone listen to ubuntu pod cast
[05:26] <hachi> having trouble on feisty fawn with intel 2915ABG wireless card on home network.... works just fine at work
[05:26] <hachi> is there any place to go for hints/help on this sort of stuff?
[05:26] <Jordan_U> BWolf_, Yes, you can choose between KDE and Gnome at login by changing the "session"
[05:26] <BWolf_> nice
[05:26] <Fructose> antiprophet: Yeah, I've used it that way, but I'd feel better having a native app.
[05:26] <davef> jeff2: Microsoft *extends* the filesystem on CD's and makes it worse.
[05:27] <Toma-> Fructose: deluge is great
[05:27] <wiseelben> Jordan_U: I havn't been able to find it, but I think i'll just go with the intel chip
[05:27] <pibarnas> cables: sorry, it's not in English, but I think you'll understand, take a look at this http://hamacker.wordpress.com/2007/04/21/sim-eu-prefiro-fontes-borradas/
[05:27] <cables> pibarnas, I'm going to go for it and run the dpkg-reconfigure... anything I should be watching out for?
[05:27] <jeff2> davef, microsoft never ceases to amaze me :)
[05:27] <cables> pibarnas, ah, good timing :)
[05:27] <wiseelben> Jordan_U: looking around the forums, I found that a lot of people had trouble with the dell one
[05:28] <Toma-> Fructose: http://deluge-torrent.org/
[05:28] <Fructose> Toma-: Hmm. Not in Synaptic. Everything good is in there, I thought!
[05:28] <pibarnas> cables: it's a good thing logout gnome and re-initiate X with control+alt+backspace after doing the mod.
[05:29] <eternaljoy> Toma-: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=6637
[05:29] <cables> pibarnas, after I do this will I still be able to use the gnome font configuration tool?
[05:29] <Toma-> Fructose: its in there :) deluge-torrent, but its broken, apparently
[05:29] <eternaljoy> Toma-: what you think about that?
[05:29] <pibarnas> cables: certainly, it's only about hinting...
[05:29] <Toma-> eternaljoy: i was trying to give you that link but you had left :D
[05:29] <Toma-> eternaljoy: just make sure youre using wine version 0.9.37
[05:29] <eternaljoy> Toma-: well, as u can see some got it working contradciting your comments
[05:29] <cables> pibarnas, it asked questions about other things like subpixel as well though, I'm wondering if I can still change those in the font settings. Also, should I enable bitmapped fonts or not?
[05:30] <Toma-> eternaljoy: gee, thanks.
[05:30] <pibarnas> cables: do it and come back to tell me the result.
[05:30] <eternaljoy> Toma-: it loads but jumps out
[05:30] <IntuitiveNipple> Are there any BIOS hackers about?
[05:30] <eternaljoy> Toma-: welcome :-)
[05:30] <GAPeach> Hi.
[05:30] <manny> whad up toma
[05:30] <cables> pibarnas, ok, but do you know what I should do for the bitmapped fonts?
[05:30] <eternaljoy> IntuitiveNipple: yes, Toma-
[05:30] <pibarnas> cables: I don't enable bitmapped.
[05:30] <Toma-> eternaljoy: youre not being very nice.
[05:30] <IntuitiveNipple> Is this true Toma?
[05:31] <eternaljoy> Toma-: aww come one dude!  .lighten up! im just playing with ya
[05:31] <Toma-> IntuitiveNipple: nope.
[05:31] <zanth> after upgrading I now have 3 windows managers, beryl, compiz and metacity, which should I use? I had been using beryl
[05:31] <IntuitiveNipple> doh!
[05:31] <eternaljoy> IntuitiveNipple: cheers ;)
[05:31] <Jordan_U> IntuitiveNipple, I am certainly not a BIOS hacker but try your question and see if anybody has an answer
[05:31] <GAPeach> Windows XP won't finish booting after I select it from GRUB.
[05:31] <IntuitiveNipple> Jordan_U: thanks, it's very specific and technical!
[05:31] <spikeb> zanth: whichever you want
[05:32] <zanth> spikeb: is there any advantage using compiz over beryl to get all the juicy effects?
[05:32] <cables> pibarnas, ok, thanks
[05:32] <spikeb> zanth: not that i'm aware of.
[05:32] <hachi> how can I try to kick my wireless into scanning for another network?
[05:32] <cables> zanth, I've heard it's more stable... other than that, Beryl's pretty much better.
[05:32] <Toma-> eternaljoy: i might add that as of 6 days ago, it was still classified as not running.
[05:32] <zanth> spikeb, k thanks
[05:32] <cables> hachi, it should do that automatically when you click the network manager menu
[05:32] <zanth> cables, thanks for that clarification
[05:33] <IntuitiveNipple> I've just bought a Vaio latop (VGN-FE41Z) that has Intel Core 2 Duo T7200 CPUS that support VMX (virtualisation) but the BIOS doesn't enable it. So I'm looking for ways to hack the BIOS - all I need do is write 0x3 to MSR 0x3A, or else, stop the BIOS writing 0x1 (lock bit) to MSR 0x3a :)
[05:33] <specialbuddy>  can anyone help me out with this http://www.askstudent.com/2006/10/20/how-to-crack-a-wep-key-using-ubuntu/
[05:33] <eboogie> greetings to all...
[05:33] <mister_roboto> aren't beryl and compiz supposed to be merging again? i thought i read that somewhere
[05:33] <hachi> cables: it reprompts me for the password every time, even though I know it's right
[05:33] <zanth> I am also having a problem which I've pasted here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21380/
[05:33] <zanth> basically, the nvidia drivers won't upgrade
[05:33] <spikeb> mister_roboto: yes, but they are still seperate packages in the repo for now
[05:33] <hachi> it's always worked under windows, and it worked in ubuntu like 2 versions ago, but not anymore
[05:34] <cables> hachi, that's a different issue
[05:34] <Jordan_U> GAPeach, What happens when you try to boot it?
[05:34] <cables> hachi, wait a sec, is it prompting you for a password every time you log in, or does it just not connect?
[05:34] <Toma-> IntuitiveNipple: for that kinda help, id say jump on a bios forum and ask. you DONT want to get bad advice from an IRC channel and has a bricked Vaio.
[05:34] <hachi> it never connects anymore
[05:34] <hachi> it used to
[05:34] <IntuitiveNipple> Right now I'm thinking of reading the BIOS out of the Flash with flashrom (if it supports the flash chips) and editing it, then writing it back
[05:34] <hachi> something changed and it's broken now
[05:35] <eboogie> would you guys (or girls) recommend gtkpod, yamipod, or floola to manage your ipod (add songs and create ordered playlists)?
[05:35] <IntuitiveNipple> Toma-: hehehe don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I'm just looking for any bright ideas rather than have to hack the (Windows-only) Sony BIOS updater
[05:35] <eboogie> i've been using a combination of all three to get stuff done...
[05:35] <GAPeach> Jordan_U: After it's selected from the GRUB menu, it says "Starting up..." and then it does nothing.
[05:35] <spikeb> i just use rhythmbox
[05:35] <spikeb> heh
[05:35] <Decepticon> where do i find a comprehensive list of the wierd runoff editions of ubuntu?
[05:35] <Toma-> IntuitiveNipple: ok :)
[05:35] <Flannel> Decepticon: don't believe there is one
[05:35] <nj786> hey you guys is it okay to use GAIM or PIDGEN?
[05:35] <Decepticon> someone ought to make one
[05:36] <IntuitiveNipple> The trouble is, once bit-0 of MSR 0x3a is set, the register can't be changed unless the power is cycled
[05:36] <Jordan_U> IntuitiveNipple, I don't know what you are doing but it sounds like it might be easier to use an open source BIOS alternative instead of editing what you have ( just a thought )
[05:36] <eboogie> can rhythmbox add music and create playlists on the ipod?  i was unaware of that feature set
[05:36] <spikeb> nj786: if you want to, sure
[05:36] <spikeb> eboogie: it can nowadays.
[05:36] <IntuitiveNipple> Jordan_U: Yeah, I looked at OpenBIOS but that project doesn't support this
[05:36] <nj786> spikeb, its giving me troubles like my friends are trying to send me files through pidgen but they dont work
[05:36] <IntuitiveNipple> All I need do is change one damned bit :)
[05:36] <v3n0m> help
[05:36] <IntuitiveNipple> bit-2 of MSR 0x3A :)
[05:37] <DShepherd> i have a hp dv9000 and my mic doesnt seem to work. Is there anyway to check to see if ubuntu can see my hardware?
[05:37] <Jordan_U> GAPeach, Is it's boot flag set and can you still boot widows through the one time boot menu ( press F8 and boot the windows drive directly )
[05:37] <spikeb> nj786: i've had about the same success with file sending and recieving on gaim/pidgin as the native clients
[05:37] <Toma-> IntuitiveNipple: hex editor?
[05:37] <Samurai_Dan> hello all
[05:37] <nj786> spikeb, even music files?
[05:37] <eboogie> cool..i'll investigate that...
[05:38] <BWolf_> how can i delete a user from the /home directory
[05:38] <spikeb> nj786: mostly music files, as a matter of fact
[05:38] <Jordan_U> DShepherd, System -> Preferences -> Hardware information
[05:38] <IntuitiveNipple> Toma-: That's the easy bit - its disassembling the BIOS, finding the byte to edit, and being able to write the BIOS back to Flash with the correct checksum that's the killer
[05:38] <nj786> spikeb, if you had to choose what would it be GAIM or PIDGEN?
[05:38] <v3n0m> gui install succeeded but Ubuntu freezes after installing to HD, works just fine through live cd, alternate install failed, safe-graphics install failed, my thread: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=445664
[05:38] <mister_roboto> BWolf_: userdel --remove <user>
[05:39] <spikeb> nj786: for now, gaim, because i use the package ubuntu provides. as soon as ubuntu is updated to pidgin, i'd choose that :)
[05:39] <IntuitiveNipple> nj786: I built pidgin on the new lappy tonight, it looks good
[05:39] <mokkan> hey, i cant seem to get sound to work
[05:39] <GAPeach> Jordan_U: I'm not sure, but I'm trying it.
[05:39] <mokkan> i mean, it was working, but now its not
[05:39] <nj786> spikeb, where can i install these pakages for GAIM?
[05:39] <spikeb> nj786: gaim should be installed by default
[05:40] <nj786> IntuitiveNipple, is there any pakages to install for pidgen
[05:40] <eboogie> Decepticon: you can start here http://shots.osdir.com/
[05:40] <spikeb> otherwise apt-get install gaim
[05:40] <IntuitiveNipple> GAIM is on the Applications/Internet menu I think
[05:40] <nj786> spikeb, i knoiw
[05:40] <Decepticon> ah eboogie, good idea
[05:40] <mcvenn> need help to setup wordpress. when i run the mysql-setup script, i get: "ln: creating symbolic link `/srv/www/wlaoye.no-ip.biz' to `/usr/share/wordpress': No such file or directory". there really is no dir /srv/www and i don't think i should manually create it.
[05:40] <nj786> is there like any updates
[05:40] <nj786> or anything?
[05:40] <Decepticon> shouldve thought of that
[05:40] <spikeb> nj786: only security ones
[05:40] <IntuitiveNipple> nj786: There isn't a .deb, no
[05:40] <spikeb> nj786: it'll stay at the version it's at until the next release of ubuntu
[05:40] <eboogie> i remember specifically something just like that for every ubuntu spinoff
[05:41] <hachi> ahh, okay... I've enabled my essid beacon via 802.11 and now things work. This used to work in Hoary though, does anyone know what changed since then to break it?
[05:41] <hachi> also, are tickless kernels available for FF yet?
[05:41] <CaptainMorgan> Howdy folks
[05:42] <nj786> for recieving music files through PIDGEN why is it soo slow to recieve?
[05:42] <spikeb> depends on the service
[05:42] <spikeb> some of the protocols are faster than others in terms of pidgin/gaim speed
[05:42] <cables> pibarnas, the fonts are a little weird shaped now...
[05:42] <spikeb> i think it's mostly a matter of how well understood the protocol is by the developers
[05:43] <mcvenn> no help in setting up wordpress?
[05:43] <somian[1] _> llo llo
[05:43] <NoMoreWindows> how can i prevent firefox from opening stuff into new windows. I want everything within one window, just different tabs.
[05:43] <NoMoreWindows> how can i get gaim to highlight messages addressed to me, when I'm in IRC/chatroom?
[05:43] <CAL|Smeltn> ok anyone know how I can download http://movies.yahoo.com/summer-movies/Transformers/1808716430/trailers/31 and save it on my pc
[05:43] <CAL|Smeltn> to watch in like VLC or something?
[05:43] <NoMoreWindows> How can i get it to audio-alert me?
[05:43] <nj786> for recieving music files through PIDGEN why is it soo slow to recieve?
[05:43] <nj786> it takes soo long to recieve
[05:44] <Falados> NoMoreWindows: Tools >> Options >> Tabs
[05:44] <slvmchn__> poor connection probably nj786
[05:44] <somian[1] _> What procedure must I learn in order to get packages added via Synaptic to show up in the Main Menu ("Applications") on the Ubuntu (Gnome) desktop?
[05:44] <slvmchn__> whoever's sending it /recieving it
[05:44] <Jordan_U> CAL|Smeltn, I was trying to do the same earlier today, you must use Digg also :)
[05:44] <nj786> slvmch, any way to fix the connection?
[05:44] <spikeb> there's a plugin for gaim that has IRC extensions, highlighting might be in that
[05:44] <NoMoreWindows> Falados: i have checked that and marked "open in new tabs", yet some stuff still open up into a new window
[05:44] <LordLinux> i need help
[05:44] <mcvenn> CAL|Smeltn: with your browser.
[05:44] <nj786> or too check my connection slvmchn
[05:44] <spikeb> somian[1] _: they should do that automatically.
[05:45] <somian[1] _> They aren't doing so. They should?
[05:45] <frankd3> what's a good text editor program for linux?
[05:45] <LordLinux> i need  a process to make a live cd from  install ubuntu custom
[05:45] <Jordan_U> somian[1] _, They should show up automatically, if they don't you can add them with alacarte
[05:45] <nj786> slvmchn?
[05:45] <cables> frankd3, what sort of text editor are you looking for? There's a fairly powerful one included, but if you're going to be programming, try Emacs or something like that.
[05:45] <Jordan_U> frankd3, vim, emacs, gedit, nano ...
[05:46] <zelnok> I'd stick with vi or emacs for text editors, frankly.  Basic text editing is pretty easy to get the hang of with either of them and after that they're as customizable as you feel like learning about.
[05:46] <NoMoreWindows> spikeb: ok. how do i customize the irc extensions. how do i get the irc plugin. (Please use my name, NoMoreWindows, so i can easily spot your messages for me)
[05:46] <GAPeach> Jordan_UI: I'm going to assume that the boot flag is gone. The computer is a HP Pavilion m7640n, so when the computer turned on (displays a blue screen with the HP logo and some options at the bottom), I pressed the Esc key to get to the boot menu, but that only showed the bootable devices (the HD with Ubuntu and Windows XP and the DVD-RW/CD drive). I don't think the F8 trick will work because I can't even get Windows XP to boot (i.e the
[05:46] <pibarnas> cables: are they ugly? u can do that: system>preferences>fonts>details and mark "discrete".
[05:46] <axl000> how can i erase the last played listo on totem??
[05:46] <cables> pibarnas, they're not really ugly, but different.
[05:46] <somian[1] _> Dozens of added ones haven't shown up (spikeb). In alacarte, the pkgs are shown with checkmarks in the boxes but are not on the menu.
[05:46] <bimberi> LordLinux: http://reconstructor.aperantis.com/
[05:46] <frankd3> i was looking through and found bluefish.  just a program that i can use to do php, mysql, etc..
[05:46] <Jordan_U> LordLinux, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization
[05:46] <spikeb> NoMoreWindows: open up synaptic and do a search for gaim, it'll list gaim and the various plugins for it, install what you want to. after installation, start gaim, and right click on the system tray icon to configure plugins.
[05:47] <spikeb> somian[1] _: sounds buggy
[05:47] <somian[1] _> The only ones that show up are ones added using the "Add/Remove ..." menu choice under "Applications"
[05:47] <pibarnas> cables: are they better now?
[05:47] <LordLinux> thanks
[05:47] <somian[1] _> spikeb: yeah, ok, thanks for not assuming i'm an idiot
[05:47] <cables> pibarnas, hold on, haven't tried that yet
[05:47] <somian[1] _> Like they did over on irc.ubuntu.org ...
[05:47] <DShepherd> Jordan_U: i havent found anything useful in system-prefs-hardware .. about my mic..
[05:48] <vejan> hoew do I add a domain name into my ubuntu server?
[05:48] <NoMoreWindows> spikeb: TYVM
[05:48] <spikeb> somian[1] _: you don't sound like an idiot - you installed stuff, looked in the menu editor, looked in the MENU, etc. besides, even noobies aren't idiots, they're new.
[05:48] <spikeb> NoMoreWindows: you're welcome. :)
[05:48] <Jordan_U> somian[1] _, Are the applications that aren't showing up GUI applications?
[05:48] <bimberi> somian[1] _: irc.ubuntu.com is the same place as here :)
[05:48] <somian[1] _> spikeb++
[05:48] <Madpilot> somian[1] _, irc.ubuntu.org is the same irc server as freenode - irc.ubuntu.org just forwards to freenode. :) Same channels...
[05:48] <eboogie> vejan: i think you should static your ip address then edit /etc/resolv.conf
[05:49] <somian[1] _> Oh, good. Then I've already started my channel troll ignore list here. ;-)

[05:55] <vejan> it didn't ask me to set it when I was installing

[05:56] <eboogie> vejan: i'm not sure where you should go from here...
[05:56] <dru> i just did that
[05:56] <GaiaX11> bur[n] er: Thx.
[05:56] <dru> now what?
[05:57] <vejan> maybe I had a brain fart and missed it
[05:57] <Flannel> vejan: but, thats how you can change it.
[05:57] <Jordan_U> dru, Can you post a link to the pastebin here ( or did I just miss it ) ?

[05:58] <cables> pibarnas, is there a way to have both subpixel smoothing and the type of hinting that "best shapes" provides? That's how it's done on the Mac, and it certainly looks better than what's on Linux.
[05:58] <manny> check out the podcast http://ubuntuos.com/index.php
[05:58] <vejan> WAHOO it worked
[05:58] <vejan> THANKS all
[05:58] <pibarnas> cables: I think it's possible...
[05:58] <vejan> dang u guys are GOOD
[05:59] <cables> pibarnas, I enabled autohinting in the settings, as well as subpixel smoothing, but there's no way to choose that in the font settings.
[05:59] <dru> so now what?

[06:10] <peanutb> specialbuddy, Then it wont be on ath0, ath0 if for atheros based cards.
[06:10] <jackaL> hello everyone
[06:10] <frednagual> does anyone here could help me, I need to fsck my uubuntu from live cd, I am in livecd right now, but i dont know how to fsck my disk
[06:10] <v3n0m> jessmon: what does that mean? I had access to the recovery mode but I've since deleted the partitions
[06:10] <Pelo> cilaes,  enable backport and install  sun-java-6
[06:10] <Flannel> frednagual: why do you need to do it from the liveCD?
[06:11] <specialbuddy> well I'm trying to crack my wep and am having a lot of trouble with this tutorial
[06:11] <jackaL> anyone know where I should start. I've installed Ubuntu and go beryl working but what else should i do. Are there specific drivers i need to get for moive players and such?
[06:11] <v3n0m> jessmon: I have more details in this thread http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=445664
[06:11] <peanutb> just replace all references of ath0 to eth1
[06:11] <cilaes> Pelo: sun-java6-jre is already the newest version.
[06:11] <kevind7> is there a way to adjust for best performance in ubuntu, like windows, only show outlines of windows when you move them, and whatever?
[06:11] <cilaes> uninstall 5 maybe, Pelo?
[06:11] <zanth> Chirvo, here is the new error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21387/
[06:11] <|_ocke> k i just installed a new 80gb HD obn top of my 10gb total previously
[06:11] <Pelo> cilaes,  not a bad idea
[06:11] <specialbuddy> peanutb, I did that and I'm still having trouble
[06:11] <frednagual> Flanell I didnt set up a root password, and know there is an error and I does not let fsck work without root password, and I cant go further
[06:11] <somian[1] > There we go. Tried logging out to see if the Gnome desktop main menu would "refresh" itself. Nope.
[06:12] <Flannel> !away > |Element|away|
[06:12] <|_ocke> i created a 5gb swap partition and a 15gb partition i intend to be /home
[06:12] <Pelo> jackaL,  now you use  ubuntu,
[06:12] <peanutb> specialbuddy, what tutorial are you using?
[06:12] <specialbuddy> http://www.askstudent.com/2006/10/20/how-to-crack-a-wep-key-using-ubuntu/ peanutb this is what I'm using
[06:12] <|_ocke> how can i make my current /dev/hda install use the /hdb swap partition and copyu /home to the new /hdb opartition
[06:12] <usr13> My clients are saying "busy or down" when trying to print to shared HP5L.
[06:12] <usr13> Anyone/
[06:12] <usr13> ?
[06:12] <Flannel> frednagual: Ubuntu doesn't use the root account, there is no root password.  Anyway, to fsck your harddrive (without a liveCD), `sudo touch /forcefsck` and reboot.
[06:13] <EverythingEvil> w00t sudo
[06:13] <somian[1] > You cannot, I think, use a partition both for swap and for a /home filesystem, |_ocke
[06:13] <Pelo> jackaL, talk tome in the main channel please I donT, take pm fromppl I donT know
[06:13] <frednagual> Flannel, I cant start ubuntu
[06:13] <|_ocke> somafm, i know
[06:13] <|_ocke> somafm, thers 2 different partitions
[06:13] <|_ocke> plyus 60gb of unpartitioned space
[06:13] <specialbuddy> I can't seem to get any packets peanutb
[06:13] <somian[1] > So, can you try again to phrase your question, |_ocke ?
[06:13] <peanutb> soecialbuddy, you have to configure it with different drivers. (the Intel ones instead of atheros)
[06:13] <frednagual> during start up it does a system check, find a error, and ask me the root password to start fsck
[06:13] <|_ocke> i installed a new HD just now, it is blank
[06:14] <Frogzoo> |_ocke: you need to run mkswap on the swap partition, and add it to fstab - copy your home over using tar or cp -R
[06:14] <|_ocke> i created a 5gb linux-swap partition and a 15gb ext3 partition
[06:14] <|_ocke> i want the 5gb to be used as wwap instead of the 512mb one on HDA
[06:14] <somian[1] > Aha.
[06:14] <Flannel> frednagual: root password?  Try ctrl-D there.  It relaly shouldn't ask for a root password.  Have you tried just hitting enter maybe?
[06:14] <RAOF> |_ocke: *5gb* swap?  what are you doing, simulating the earth's weather?
[06:14] <lobster> anyone know alot about udev?
[06:14] <jackaL> so anyone know the next step i have to do to get my audio working?
[06:14] <somian[1] > man mkswap and swapon, |_ocke
[06:14] <|_ocke> and i want the 15gb partition to be used as /home instead of /home under the root partition of the previous 10gh\b drive
[06:15] <Pelo> !sound > jackaL check pm for instrctions from ubotu
[06:15] <|_ocke> RAOF, im using LAMP plus secondlife plus firefox plus whatever else i wanna do
[06:15] <jessmon> venom: that link dosen't open
[06:15] <frednagual> flannel yes i tried just enter, my user password, ~root~ ... Ctrl D just restarts, and I get back to the same point
[06:15] <somian[1] > You can have more than one swap partition at a time, is why you might want to try learning swapon etc.
[06:15] <jackaL> What is PM?
[06:15] <|_ocke> and right now its 512 swap plus 256 ram and it dies every few minutes
[06:15] <|_ocke> its impractical
[06:15] <Frogzoo> |_ocke: you have your answer now
[06:15] <RAOF> |_ocke: 5Gb of swap is almost certainly 4Gb too much :)
[06:15] <v3n0m> jessmon: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=445664 (this one opens for me fine)
[06:15] <|_ocke> so since i have an 80gb drive i wanna overkill the craop out of swap
[06:16] <monaleilani> okay, I don't get it. I thought FF was supposed to have better wireless tools.
[06:16] <frednagual> DOes anyone how how can I use fsck to fix my dh with ubuntu, fromt he livecd
[06:16] <jackaL> Pelo> !sound what is pm?
[06:16] <|_ocke> and since most of it i cant use withoput transitioning the entire filesyste,
[06:16] <specialbuddy> peanutb, configure it with different drivers?
[06:16] <monaleilani> It doesn't even install ndiswrapper. How the heck am I supposed to download ndiswrapper if I don't have an internet connection?
[06:16] <specialbuddy> what are my drivers then
[06:16] <RAOF> |_ocke: And for your /home partition, you just want to copy across your existing stuff, and change fstab
[06:16] <|_ocke> it slows to straight molasses if i have secondlife and firefox openm currently
[06:16] <jessmon> frednagual: how did it break?
[06:16] <monaleilani> I'm rapidly becoming disenchanted with ubuntu.
[06:17] <Pelo> jackaL, pm is a private message windows  I just asked ubotu to send you some instrctions on getting your sound working , check theother wndows in your chat client
[06:17] <|_ocke> and half the time locks the system so hard i cant even ctrl+alt+f1 and htop kill -9 it
[06:17] <bimberi> |_ocke: I think that will still be the case if you're still on 256MB of RAM
[06:17] <RAOF> |_ocke: That slowness *isn't* going to go away with more swap :)
[06:17] <monaleilani> I might actually degrade, because at least then I could connect to the internet.
[06:17] <|_ocke> well
[06:17] <|_ocke> yeah it will..
[06:17] <monaleilani> This is pathetic.
[06:17] <RAOF> monaleilani: ndiswrapper is on both the live & alternate CDs, last time I checked.
[06:17] <Falados> monaleilani: ndiswrapper-utils should come with the live cd
[06:17] <jessmon> venom: it wont open, but my machine is "under construction" at the moment, so it could be that
[06:17] <|_ocke> when it gets to 0mb free swap it starts wapping out the swap for other wwap and continures trying to do iut until i power off
[06:17] <bimberi> monaleilani: ndiswrapper is usually on the CD
[06:18] <|_ocke> at least if i had overkill swap it wouldnt slow to unresponmsive
[06:18] <RAOF> monaleilani: Not installed by default, but installable without an internet connection.
[06:18] <monaleilani> buttt it doesn't install on the hd.
[06:18] <eboogie> monaleilani: can you use a regular ethernet cable to connect to the Internet until you get wireless up and running?
[06:18] <Falados> monaleilani: You also need the .sys and the .inf file from your driver cd
[06:18] <Chirvo> zanth, remove the nvidia-glx package, update the distro and reinstall the package. A fair warning. After removing the pakage your X coniguration may fail. So I would change the video driver to "vesa" before any attempt to try to remove the nvidia glx libs
[06:18] <|_ocke> and i could fix whatever was goping stuopid
[06:18] <v3n0m> jessmon: can you see this link: http://img255.imageshack.us/my.php?image=2nderrorscreenlinuxsaferf1.png  ?
[06:18] <monaleilani> No, it doesn't seem ubuntu will let me use a wired connection either.
[06:18] <peanutb> specialbuddy, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=240838
[06:18] <RAOF> |_ocke: No, it still would slow to unresponsive, it's just the OOM killer wouldn't kick in as early :)

[06:18] <monaleilani> falados: I know, I've used ndiswrapper before, with great success.

[06:20] <RAOF> |_ocke: Yeah, having more than 512mb swap would probably be useful for you :).  Still, /slow as mollasses/
[06:20] <|_ocke> 256mb plus 512 swap is NOIT enough to run apache2, mysqld, secondlife, firefox, and the gimp suimultaneously

[06:22] <usr13> strabes: "Internet printer"?
[06:22] <monaleilani> can't find the package.
[06:23] <monaleilani> Falados: It won't do it, for some reason.

[06:25] <Smegzor> I'm not a total noob.  I didn't do anything to cause this (I'd know).  I'll see how the reinstall goes.
[06:27] <RAOF> monaleilani: In fact, you might want to check the ndiswrapper wiki page:     *
[06:27] <RAOF> monaleilani: In fact, you might want to check the ndiswrapper wiki page:           Without an Internet connection, you can still install ndiswrapper-utils from the Desktop CD. If you installed from that, the repository in which ndiswrapper-utils is found is on the CD, but not within the live session. You need to boot into your new Ubuntu installation and then reinsert the Desktop CD. You will be asked if you want to add the packages on the CD ...
[06:27] <ustudio> someone who knows processing.org?
[06:27] <RAOF> ... to your list of repositories.
[06:27] <voidmage> does restricted-manager support the 8600?
[06:27] <RAOF>     *

[06:27] <innernaut> I don't have any problems with my xorg.conf...  and grep of the /var/log/Xorg.0.log doesn't have any errors... but I still can't login to kde with a normal user... in the ~/.xsession-errors it says permission denied...
[06:27] <Nav> I just installed dapper and do not get a complete menu in the desktop.  For example, the Login preferences are missing in the System/Administration menu.  How can I get the complete menu?
[06:27] <hachi> what's the package necessary to do LVM on ubuntu? I installed lvm2 and pvcreate says 'No program "pvcreate" found for your current version of LVM'
[06:27] <hachi> maybe lvm got renamed and I didn't notice?
[06:28] <Fylk> Hey, is there any easy way for me to make it so that Grub doesn't auto boot?
[06:28] <Jordan_U> innernaut, Are you starting kdm manually?
[06:28] <RAOF> hachi: You're trying to do that from the livecd, obviously?
[06:28] <Jordan_U> Fylk, Yes.
[06:28] <Fylk> how?
[06:28] <GAPeach> Just reposting this in case anyone can help. I hope no one minds. "Windows XP won't finish booting after I select it from GRUB."   "After it's selected from the GRUB menu, it says "Starting up..." and then it does nothing."   " I'm going to assume that the boot flag is gone. The computer is a HP Pavilion m7640n, so when the computer turned on (displays a blue screen with the HP logo and some options at the bottom), I pressed the Esc key 
[06:28] <Frogzoo> Nav: sounds like you need to add that user to 'admin' group
[06:28] <hachi> RAOF: no, I'm trying to do it on a running system
[06:28] <RAOF> monaleilani: Ok, I'll just write out the address: help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[06:29] <|_ocke> why would you wanna import windiows settings into ubuntu? ...
[06:29] <RAOF> hachi: Isn't LVM installed by default?  Always has been for me.
[06:29] <|_ocke> i diont ge it
[06:29] <|_ocke> so..
[06:29] <Nav> Frogzoo, the desktop was opened via vnc as root
[06:29] <hachi> RAOF: isn't working, thus why I'm asking questions
[06:29] <|_ocke> can anyone tell me where to go to use the new swap partition
[06:29] <monaleilani> RAOF: The first time I stuck my cd in on my new installation, sure, it asked me if I wanted to add it. I clicked yes. But lo and behold, that has done me jack shit.;
[06:29] <Frogzoo> hachi: having lvm1 & lvm2 on the same machine will get very confusing
[06:29] <|_ocke> and maybe copyu all contents of the current /home to the new /home
[06:30] <hachi> Frogzoo: I don't believe lvm1 is available in FF... I'm talking about lvm2 only
[06:30] <RAOF> hachi: Hm.  What Ubuntu version?  Have you got the lvm module (it's devmapper, or something like that?) loaded?
[06:30] <Frogzoo> Nav: well there's your problem, don't connect as root
[06:30] <nj786> how do  icheck my system to see if it running well?
[06:30] <RAOF> !ohmy > monaleilani
[06:30] <Frogzoo> nj786: htop
[06:31] <Smegzor> Reinstall in progress.  I didn't import any XP carp this time.  At least it only takes ~10 minutes to install vs XP's hour or so.
[06:31] <Nav> Frogzoo, why is that a problem? ... asks the newbie
[06:31] <rredd4> GAPeach maybe you should put in your xp cd and repair xp.  you will probably have to fix grub after that.  look in the wiki for instructions before doing anything
[06:31] <nj786> htop in terminal?
[06:31] <Frogzoo> Nav: running the gui as root is a bad idea, just don't do it
[06:31] <rredd4> GAPeach  wiki will tell you how to fix after xp is installed
[06:32] <Fylk> Can some one linkme aguide to working with Grub?
[06:32] <nj786> frogzoo, what does this do htop?
[06:32] <GAPeach> rredd4: Can I back up Ubuntu before then, or should I not do it?
[06:32] <Smegzor> If I lose sudo rights again on all user accounts.  Is there anything I can do other than reinstall to fix it?  I'm worried that this could happen long after the install.
[06:32] <nj786> frogzoo, i installed it
[06:32] <nj786> frogzoo, how do i check
[06:32] <monaleilani> Okay. Where on the cd is ndiswrapper-utils hidden?
[06:33] <RAOF> Smegzor: You can check your "sudoers" file, and make sure that the users you want are in the "admin" group.
[06:33] <RAOF> monaleilani: It's hidden as *ndiswrapper-utils-1.9*
[06:33] <monaleilani> WHERE??? Is it an app or a package or what?
[06:33] <eboogie> Smegzor: if you choose recovery console (ESC when ubuntu is booting up right before Grub) it will drop you down to root...you can try to fix your problem from there
[06:33] <RAOF> Smegzor: Booting into "recovery mode" from GRUB will give you root access.
[06:33] <rredd4> GAPeach  it will not destroy ubuntu, it will just set the mbr to windows only.  then you fix grub via what the wiki says to do.
[06:33] <Smegzor> Thanks.  I figured there'd be a way out :)
[06:34] <GAPeach> rredd4: All right, I"ll try it latter.
[06:34] <RAOF> monaleilani: If you've got the CD added as a repository, you *should* just be able to apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9
[06:34] <rredd4> GAPeach  search for fixing grub after windows install  or something like that
[06:34] <eboogie> RAOF: You rock!
[06:34] <RAOF> monaleilani: Otherwise, there'll be the .deb of it lying around on the CD somewhere.  You could "find / -iname *.deb"
[06:34] <GAPeach> rredd4: Thanks for the help. I'll be sure to look it up before I go to bed :)
[06:34] <monaleilani> can't find package..
[06:34] <rredd4> GAPeach  read wiki before you try it
[06:34] <RAOF> eboogie: I know, but for any particular reason? :P
[06:35] <emlarsen> Hey
[06:35] <Smegzor> I'm going to build my very first dedicated Linux pc soon.  I'm use XP at the moment.  I'm going to name my pc FUD :)
[06:35] <bullgard4> What is the purpose of DocBook  in /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.20/Documentation/DocBook/?
[06:35] <emlarsen> I'm trying to install this program and I've had errors with EVERY KIND of Ubuntu there is.
[06:35] <Bree> o.o
[06:35] <Pelo> what is the most direct fix for grub error 21 ?
[06:36] <nj786> any1 know what htop does and how do you run it when u install it?
[06:36] <rredd4> beryl works with nvidia geforce4 mx440?
[06:36] <GAPeach> rredd4: All right, I'm looking at it right now.
[06:36] <RAOF> bullgard4: It makes nice documentation :)
[06:36] <RAOF> rredd4: With XGL, yes.
[06:36] <Bonkers-> what kernel should I be using on feisty for an smp system? it claims linux-686-smp is obsolete, should the normal kernel detect smp?
[06:36] <rredd4> GAPeach  great!
[06:36] <emlarsen> I keep getting the long mond, needs 32 bit distribution
[06:36] <emlarsen> mode*
[06:36] <emlarsen> error.
[06:36] <RAOF> rredd4: Join #ubuntu-effects for beryl support, though.
[06:36] <hachi> how does one view the UUID of a filesystem?
[06:36] <monaleilani> I can't install ndiswrapper. I added the cd as a repository. apt-get won't find it. nothing will find it. I'm ready to throw my laptop out the window.
[06:36] <bullgard4> RAOF: Can you tell me what this documentation is about?
[06:36] <rredd4> RAOF  ok, how do i know if I have XGA] 
[06:37] <rredd4> xgl
[06:37] <RAOF> bullgard4: Presumably it's stuff like the kernel hacking guide, kernel interface documentation, etc.
[06:37] <RAOF> rredd4: join #ubuntu-effects, it's *much* quieter.
[06:37] <rredd4> ok
[06:37] <bullgard4> RAOF: How can I start to read this stuff?
[06:38] <RAOF> Bonkers-: You should be using the -generic kernel.  *Everyone* should be using the -generic kernel :)
[06:38] <TakeOut{u}> monaleilani, if you're at that stage before instlling ndiswrapper, just wait till you do !
[06:38] <innernaut> cat /home/innernaut/.xsession-errors

[06:38] <monaleilani> TakeOut: I did the exact same thing on EE with no problems.
[06:38] <monaleilani> Only FF has given me this problem.
[06:38] <Pokit> hey all quick beryl question.  how do i install beryl 0.2.0? i downloaded all the tar files and unzipped them. now what? i have a bunch of folderes
[06:38] <monaleilani> I should have never upgraded.
[06:38] <TakeOut{u}> is it a deb file ?
[06:38] <maxamillion> i really should know this, but how long will edgy continue to be supported?
[06:38] <RAOF> bullgard4: I'd suggest installing the "linux-doc" package :)
[06:39] <genii> hach sudo vol_id -u <device>
[06:39] <genii> hachi^
[06:39] <crdlb> Pokit: do you specifically need 0.2.0?
[06:39] <crdlb> or is 0.2.1 fine?
[06:39] <Pokit> yeah
[06:39] <Pokit> i dont think 0.2.1 will work for me
[06:39] <crdlb> Pokit: Xgl?
[06:39] <Pokit> i've tried everything and still get a white cube when i install it
[06:39] <Pokit> yes
[06:39] <rageagaintthis> how can i mount a .img to my system so i do not have to burn a cd
[06:39] <Bonkers-> RAOF: ok, thanks, just checking
[06:39] <Pokit> i have xgl
[06:39] <crdlb> Pokit: what card?
[06:39] <Pokit> crdlb: i have xgl/ubuntu
[06:40] <Pokit> crdlb: ati radeon x1800
[06:40] <crdlb> Pokit: http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Install_Beryl_on_Ubuntu_Feisty_with_XGL
[06:40] <crdlb> just the part about adding the repo
[06:40] <crdlb> and pinning beryl-core 0.2.0
[06:40] <hachi> genii: thanks
[06:40] <kandrews> Hi, I have a problem with my tty consoles. My caps lock key does not work in them. Is there a way to see what keyboard layout is used in the consoles?
[06:40] <hachi> RAOF, thanks
[06:41] <genii> hachi np
[06:41] <ronyoung1970> Frogzoo, I just tried to open vncserver as a user and it keeps making me create a password file instead of opening vncserver
[06:42] <bullgard4> RAOF: So far I have not installed either  the package linux-doc nor the package linux-doc-2.6.20. I read both short descriptions in Synaptic. What package(s) should I install? Both?
[06:42] <EmoKarnaj> I am on a Vista Alienware laptop, can dig up specs if you want, attempted to run ubuntu linux live, the brown text loading menu came up... when I returned to the screen though, I saw an error message, "PCI: Cannot allocate resource register 7 of bridge 0000:00:1c:0"...
[06:42] <Jordan_U_> kandrews, sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
[06:42] <v3n0m> help: http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/9832/2nderrorscreenlinuxsaferf1.png
[06:42] <innernaut> still no permission
[06:43] <Pokit> crdlb:thanks
[06:43] <Jordan_U_> innernaut, Even when doing sudo /etc/init.d/kdm restart?
[06:43] <RAOF> bullgard4: No idea.  Check out the descriptions :)
[06:44] <monaleilani> I should have never upgraded.
[06:44] <EmoKarnaj> i rilly want to get vista off of this notebook and ubuntu on it :'(
[06:44] <Jordan_U_> EmoKarnaj, Try the alternate CD
[06:44] <|_ocke> EmoKarnaj, gparted on livecd, kill hda1 (vista)
[06:44] <rageagaintthis> what program do i need to burn .img file
[06:44] <|_ocke> go from there
[06:44] <costal79> do you know if kismet and aircrack-ng is working fine in the last version of ubuntu ?
[06:45] <BWolf_> how can i remove a user that is not needed?
[06:45] <EmoKarnaj> Jordan_U, I downloaded the 6.06 CD from the site, what is the "alternate CD"?
[06:45] <Jordan_U_> EmoKarnaj, It is a text based install CD, why did you install 6.06?
[06:45] <bullgard4> RAOF: The description of 'linux-doc' is incomplete. --  Thank you, anyway.
[06:45] <innernaut> jordan_u: yes... still no go... it just kicks me back out to the prompt
[06:45] <bimberi> BWolf_: deluser
[06:45] <hachi> is there no root password on an ubuntu box by default?
[06:46] <mamoru1> I just tried installing Feisty from the livecd and apparantly, the installer didn't create any of the device files for my IDE devices nor did it create a /dev/disk/by-uuid/ directory
[06:46] <bimberi> hachi: no
[06:46] <hachi> ok
[06:46] <Jordan_U_> hachi, Yes, there is no root passwd
[06:46] <EverythingEvil> hachi, there is no root acct
[06:46] <bimberi> !root | hachi
[06:46] <ubotu> hachi: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:46] <EmoKarnaj> Jordan_U I tried the latest version but it didn't work, gave a series of similar error messages, so I erased my cd-rw and put the 6.06 on it
[06:46] <hitmanWilly> hachi: you can add one if you really want...
[06:46] <hachi> I know how to use sudo, I'm playing with filesystems... no need to tell me
[06:46] <bimberi> EverythingEvil: there is, but it's password is set so that it can't logged into
[06:46] <hachi> in order to swap out my /home mount, I have to log in as something that doesn't use /home
[06:47] <|chiz|> mamoru1: what is the problem, what are you tring to do?
[06:47] <BWolf_> says that I'm not authorized
[06:47] <EverythingEvil> same thing
[06:47] <bimberi> BWolf_: sudo deluser
[06:47] <EverythingEvil> its unusable
[06:47] <monaleilani> Well, what do you know! The live cd wants me to connect to the internet to download ndiswrapper!
[06:47] <monaleilani> This is hilarious.
[06:47] <datrigg> anyone know where to get and install proper vmware?
[06:47] <bimberi> 'no root accout' != 'unloginnable root account'
[06:48] <TakeOut{u}> monaleilani, have you tried double clicking on the ndiswrapper package ?
[06:48] <BWolf_> then it says it doesnt exist
[06:48] <monaleilani> How would that help?..
[06:48] <Jordan_U_> EmoKarnaj, I would try the Alternate install CD for 7.04 ( I'll get a link ... )
[06:48] <Pelo> datrigg,  the vmware site probably ?
[06:48] <mamoru1> chiz: I tried installing Feisty.  When installation was complete, I rebooted and ubuntu wouldn't load.  It gave me an ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/xx-yyy-zzz-whatever does not exist.  Dropping to a shell!
[06:48] <CptFuzzy> datrigg: google it, there was something on digg last week about that, and a wiki
[06:48] <monaleilani> I selected them in synaptic package manager, and it wants to connect to archive.ubuntu.org or something.
[06:48] <bimberi> datrigg: vmware-server is available in the repositories.  via Applications -> Add/Remove... possibly
[06:48] <datrigg> thanks
[06:48] <TakeOut{u}> monaleilani, try this, find the package on the cd
[06:48] <ubuntu_> hola
[06:48] <bimberi> datrigg: and vmware-player too
[06:48] <monaleilani> .....
[06:49] <TakeOut{u}> then right click on it, and a menu should come up
[06:49] <TakeOut{u}> you might be able to install it like that
[06:49] <monaleilani> I AM installing the package from the cd.
[06:49] <mamoru1> I rebooted and loaded back into the liveCD and mounted hda1 and there is no /dev/disk/by-uuid/ directory.  Nor is there a hda1 device file in the /dev directory
[06:49] <monaleilani> I'm running the live cd right now.
[06:49] <datrigg> can you run a vmware file in the server or is it just a server?
[06:49] <olrrai> hi
[06:49] <bimberi> datrigg: yes
[06:49] <kandrews> Jordan_U_: Thanks very much!
[06:49] <monaleilani> And it still wants me to download the packages. That are supposed to be on it.
[06:49] <datrigg> ty
[06:49] <TakeOut{u}> yeah
[06:49] <EmoKarnaj> thanks Jordan_U
[06:49] <TakeOut{u}> just find the ndiswrapper package
[06:49] <TakeOut{u}> on the cd
[06:49] <TakeOut{u}> its actual file location
[06:49] <monaleilani> ...
[06:50] <olrrai> I have gnome, and I have no sound on k3b and kopete, any idea?
[06:50] <Jordan_U_> EmoKarnaj, http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso
[06:50] <monaleilani> I can't.
[06:50] <monaleilani> It won't let me open the cd.
[06:51] <monaleilani> I can see the filesystem of the loaded ubuntu, but opening the cd? nope.
[06:51] <monaleilani> (I'm running the live cd.)
[06:51] <|_ocke> you cant open the tray while run ning the livecd
[06:51] <Jordan_U_> monaleilani, What are you trying to do?
[06:51] <bimberi> TakeOut{u}, monaleilani: I've checked at http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-desktop-i386.list and it appears there is no ndiswrapper on the Feisty Desktop CD.  It has been there in previous versions.  I'm a little surprised to say the least.
[06:51] <|_ocke> install to hd first
[06:52] <monaleilani> find...the....ndiswrapper....package
[06:52] <monaleilani> I already did..
[06:52] <TakeOut{u}> why don't you download the package with the computer you're on, plug your laptop into the lan, transfer it over then install it ?
[06:52] <monaleilani> It won't connect over wired either.
[06:52] <mamoru1> Could I just copy the /dev directory from the liveCD onto my HD?  Or would that not work properly?
[06:52] <monaleilani> Nothing I do seems to matter.
[06:52] <olrrai> how can I use sound on kde apps from gnome?
[06:52] <|_ocke> umm no i dont think so
[06:52] <Jordan_U_> mamoru1, What are you trying to do?
[06:53] <|_ocke> download the debpkg
[06:53] <TakeOut{u}> ty bimberi
[06:53] <|_ocke> then install witbh dpkg -install
[06:53] <bimberi> TakeOut{u}: np
[06:53] <genii> mamoru1 since the /dev entries are made dynamically each time by udev and hal you won't have much luck with some tactic like this
[06:53] <marcin> hello
[06:53] <mamoru1> Jordan_U_:  I installed Feisty but it seems not to have created any device files for my HD and there is no /dev/disk/by-uuid/ directory
[06:54] <Jordan_U_> mamoru1, Does it boot at all?
[06:54] <aTypical> Hello.  Can you make xchat-gnome use tabs for the channels?
[06:54] <monaleilani> nothing on the cd contains ndis
[06:54] <bluefox83> ok, i got home from work today and all my desktop icons were gone and i couldn't right click on my desktop, my background was gone...what the heck is up with that?
[06:54] <OrTigaS> hi i have problem re:my PC. i have feisty installed and my video resolution is configure to higher and the refresh rate, my pc is here at the ofc and i tried to use it to CRT monitor and it only show me blank screen.. how can i change it to lower so i can use it to CRT monitor
[06:54] <somian[1] > Not that I can tell, aTypical
[06:54] <RAOF> monaleilani: That's quite true.  It looks like you need to use the alternate cd, which is a bit strange.
[06:54] <mamoru1> Jordan_U_: No.  It gets to the splash screen, sits there for a few minutes, then drops into busybox
[06:54] <aTypical> somian[1] : I didn't think so.  Bummer.
[06:55] <Jordan_U_> OrTigaS, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[06:55] <monaleilani> ...I would LOVE to talk to the people who do ubuntu.
[06:55] <RAOF> monaleilani: You are.
[06:55] <monaleilani> I have alot of suggestions
[06:55] <OrTigaS> Jordan_U:  ok gonna try that
[06:55] <mamoru1> Jordan_U_: I checked both /etc/fstab and /boot/grub/menu.lst and the uuids are correct.
[06:55] <bluefox83> how do i get my desktop back to normal?
[06:55] <TakeOut{u}> why don't you talk to the manufacturers who won't release drivers for your hardware instead monaleilani
[06:56] <monaleilani> Well gee, if I could just get ahold of ndiswrapper, I'd be fine. BUUTTT ndiswrapper isn't anywhere someone without internet could get it.
[06:56] <mamoru1> Jordan_U_: They're just pointing toward device files that don't exist on the HD.
[06:56] <monaleilani> I have the cd with the files, I've used ndiswrapper before just fine.
[06:56] <Jordan_U_> mamoru1, sounds like a problem with udev and hal, I would try chrooting in from the liveCD and maybe try running dpkg-reconfigure -a ?
[06:56] <monaleilani> I thought distros were supposed to get better with time.
[06:56] <monaleilani> I can't believe I'm being forced back to EE.
[06:57] <preet> hi can any1 help me with how do i get beryl on  ubuntu 7.0 and i have it as virtual machiec using VMware
[06:57] <jason_> ow i log int root in terminal
[06:57] <mamoru1> Jordan_U_: is there a HOWTO or a walkthrough that you could point me to that would explain how to do that?  I've no experience using chroot
[06:57] <monaleilani> This is sad, very sad
[06:57] <preet> i put apt-get install beryl and it said broken packages
[06:57] <Jordan_U_> preet, An OS in Vmware does not have 3D acceleration so Beryl cannot be installed on it .
[06:57] <Lounge> now that i'm running feisty, should i get rid of edgy-backport repositories?
[06:57] <Jordan_U_> Lounge, Yes
[06:57] <preet> oh
[06:58] <jason_> what gets me into the root from terminal
[06:58] <preet> ok ty JORDAN
[06:58] <Lounge> ok it shall be done

[06:58] <alberto> windows manager wont start o>O
[06:58] <Jordan_U_> monaleilani, What chipset is your card?
[06:59] <monaleilani> my wireless card is a D-Link DWL-G650M
[06:59] <monaleilani> I wish I could connect to my wired network..
[06:59] <Lounge> what about "wine" do i really need it- is it actually not safe to have an mswindows emulation in linux?
[06:59] <Parmenion> Lounge: are you using windows programs?
[06:59] <Parmenion> if not, dont bother
[07:00] <Cplunsford> any networking gurus here?
[07:00] <BBHoss> probably
[07:00] <rageagaintthis> what program do i need to burn a .img
[07:00] <monaleilani> there's no problem with the card. it's not being able to get the software I need.
[07:00] <Lounge> i like to use photoshop - but i loads too long and with issues sometimes, but there also....well i guess not
[07:00] <Jordan_U_> monaleilani, That is Atheros, it should be supported without NDIS wrapper
[07:00] <Cplunsford> what is the proper or better yet easy method to bridge eathernet connections in linux?
[07:01] <DoUgLaSp> teste
[07:01] <monaleilani> It's not. No lights, no blinky, no nothing.
[07:01] <DoUgLaSp> BRAZIL!
[07:01] <monaleilani> Woah! wired network magically connected. Sweet!
 i like to use photoshop: try GIMP
[07:01] <Cplunsford> I found a tool to breate a bridge, but it dosn't seem to do anything, and i have read a few ambiguous faqs about MASQUERADING but nothing has worked for me yet
[07:01] <genii> !br | DoUgLaSp
[07:01] <ubotu> DoUgLaSp: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[07:02] <Parmenion> Lounge: then i suppose you need Wine ... though gimp would be much faster to use
[07:02] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, Don't use NDIS wrapper! ( try restricted driver manager first, NDIS wrapper is a hack and should not be required for your card as there are native drivers )
[07:02] <DoUgLaSp> HaiuhAHIHIUAUahuuihHAIHauhuAHauAUAHAhuaihHaiuhAHIHIUAUa COF! COF! COF! COF!
[07:02] <Lounge> i'v been playing around with gimp- it seems as good as photoshop
[07:02] <Cplunsford> never use NDIS wrapper
[07:02] <costal79> what about kiso
[07:02] <monaleilani> Jordan_U: How do I use this restricted driver manager?
[07:03] <DoUgLaSp> genii valeu ai parceiro
[07:03] <monaleilani> I loaded it and the only thing it had was an nvidia driver
[07:03] <DoUgLaSp> :D
[07:03] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager
[07:03] <monaleilani> I loaded it and the only thing it had was an nvidia driver
[07:03] <Lounge> can apple quicktime run in linix? without an emulator?
[07:03] <Pokit> beryl still wont work.  ive tried using "copy" and no luck
[07:03] <Parmenion> Lounge: i *think* so ...
[07:03] <bung> can anyone recommend any recording programs? audacity never seems to work for me =/
[07:03] <Pokit> now its a black cube instead of white lol
[07:04] <|_ocke> Lounge, yeah, but quicktime SUCKS
[07:04] <RAOF> Pokit: Go to #ubuntu-effects.  It's much eaier to help in a quieter channel
[07:04] <Pokit> thanks
[07:04] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, Do you see the network manager icon in the top right gnome panel?
[07:04] <RAOF> Lounge: If by "run" you mean "can you play back quicktime files?", the answer is a definite *yes*.
[07:04] <Lounge> what would be the player for that?
[07:04] <Pokit> channel doesn't exist.
[07:04] <DoUgLaSp> T|T|I| * I N D E P E N D E N T E * NO SoMoS GaRi, NS VaRReMoS GeRaL... INDEPENDENTE, O BoNDe Do MaL! * I N D E P E N D E N T E * T|T|I|

[07:05] <monaleilani> um.. The two-monitors-right-on-top-of-each-other thing?
[07:05] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, ( I thought all Atheros cards were supported by native drivers, I may be wrong but my atheros card worked out of the box )
[07:05] <Lounge> well
[07:05] <Lounge> i guess mplayer is good
[07:05] <monaleilani> I wish mine did. Unless my wireless card has died a vastly premature death.
 what would be the player for that? : moset player can play quicktime with the proper codecs installed
[07:05] <|_ocke> mplayer is ok
[07:05] <Cplunsford> anyone here a networking guru?
[07:05] <monaleilani> In EE I had to use ndiswrapper
[07:05] <Lounge> i see
[07:05] <CptFuzzy> kaffeene works great
[07:05] <|_ocke> xmms is great for everything it supports
[07:06] <Cplunsford> or know how to bridge ethernet connections in linux
[07:06] <monaleilani> When I plug it in I see a brief flash of light in the leds in it, then darkness
[07:06] <|_ocke> i really dont like totem or kaffeine
[07:06] <Lounge> moset with proper codecs - thanks
[07:06] <|_ocke> xmms is way smooither
[07:06] <CptFuzzy> *most
[07:06] <costal79> yep xmms is great but amarok it's awsome
[07:06] <mamoru1> Okay, I chrooted into the linux installation on my hd and ran dpkg-reconfigure -a and it stopped at "/etc/init.d/apport:  127:  cannot create /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern:  Directory nonexistent".
[07:07] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, Do you see the network-manager applet in your gnome-panel ( top right ) ?
[07:07] <|_ocke> xmms 0wnz amarok
[07:07] <CraZy675> adept takes forever to install flash.  is there an alternative?
[07:07] <monaleilani> Yes, I guess I do
[07:07] <monaleilani> Wired Network, Manual Configuration are the tooltips for it
[07:07] <Lounge> i have a "make link" problem with the "Filesystem" it refuses to link to my desktop - won't permit it
[07:07] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, And when you click on it is your card shown?
[07:07] <specialbuddy> As of now, Aireplay-ng only supports injection on Prism2, PrismGT (FullMAC), Atheros, RTL8180, RTL8187 and Ralink. Injection on Centrino, Hermes, ACX1xx, Aironet, ZyDAS, Marvell and Broadcom is not supported because of firmware and/or driver limitations.  Does this mean I can't use intel for injection?
[07:08] <monaleilani> Nope.
[07:08] <Lounge> any workaround?s
[07:08] <|_ocke> specialbuddy, nope, cant use em
[07:08] <|_ocke> you need a supported chipset
[07:08] <Parmenion> specialbuddy: yep, that means you cant ... same situation here :P
[07:08] <specialbuddy> that't not good
[07:08] <|_ocke> it makes use of very specific operations
[07:08] <|_ocke> to glean the info it requires
[07:09] <specialbuddy> is there any other program I can use
[07:09] <specialbuddy> ?
[07:09] <|_ocke> you really want atheros
[07:09] <|_ocke> specialbuddy, no, not really
[07:09] <BBHoss> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2657594 cplunsford
[07:09] <Jordan_U> specialbuddy, It is a hardware limitation, not software
[07:09] <specialbuddy> so what kind of card would I want to get for doing this?
[07:09] <monaleilani> I'm a sad panda. I guess I have to use ndiswrapper.
[07:10] <Parmenion> specialbuddy: atheros?
[07:10] <specialbuddy> is it ever not going to be a hardware limitation?
[07:10] <Parmenion> i think most atheros variants are supported
[07:10] <|_ocke> specialbuddy, atheros
[07:10] <Parmenion> specialbuddy: sadly, it usually is as such
[07:10] <spike723> what is wlan0 and what is wmaster0?
[07:10] <|_ocke> get atheros if that is your goal
[07:11] <CptFuzzy> is there a fix yet to the TI SD card reader bug in Feisty?  (tifm_sd,tifm_7xx1)
[07:11] <Cplunsford> bbhoss thanks
[07:11] <BBHoss> this may help too http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-HOWTO/BRIDGE-STP-HOWTO.html#BRCTL-SYNOPSIS
[07:11] <Cplunsford> btw, I was playing against a guy named BBHoss earlyer
[07:11] <Cplunsford> you wouldnt be the same would you
[07:11] <BBHoss> where?
[07:11] <monaleilani> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2668749 <-- here's someone with my same network card.. has the same problem
[07:11] <Cplunsford> AC4
[07:11] <specialbuddy> so what would I need for injection
[07:11] <BBHoss> guess not
[07:11] <BBHoss> what AC4?
[07:11] <specialbuddy> what kind of cards have atheros?
[07:12] <Lounge> ok now all the edgy backports are gone
[07:12] <Cplunsford> armored core
[07:12] <BBHoss> hmm
[07:12] <Cplunsford> on xbox live.  same exact name BBHoss
[07:12] <BBHoss> nope
[07:12] <BBHoss> my live names different
[07:12] <BBHoss> wierd
[07:13] <Cplunsford> i mean with all the letters in the alphabet, its not that improbable
[07:13] <BBHoss> not a common name :)
[07:13] <Cplunsford> yeah thats why i was like 'hey...!'
[07:13] <Cplunsford> thats actually what im trying to fix
[07:13] <BBHoss> my 360 is fuxxed
[07:13] <Cplunsford> i got fed up with windows for the last time and i totaly nixed it from my rig... now i need to bridge in linux
[07:13] <BBHoss> too bad, halo 3 rocks
[07:13] <monaleilani> Oh shi--
[07:14] <monaleilani> I knew I shouldn't have installed that nvidia software
[07:14] <mamoru1> so am I just up a creek or what?
[07:14] <monaleilani> now all I have is darkness.
[07:14] <Lounge> you can actually play halo/halo-3 on linux?
[07:14] <BBHoss> you can play halo
[07:14] <BBHoss> not 3
[07:14] <BBHoss> only on 360
[07:14] <Lounge> i mean "2"
[07:14] <albatroz> Hello
[07:15] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, ctrl+alt+F1 to get to a terminal, then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[07:15] <albatroz> any Ubuntu marteking people here?
[07:15] <|chiz|> mamoru1, do you have odd hardware or something?
[07:15] <Lounge> i still love "jedi academy" and "the sims 2" it'd be cool to get those to run in ubuntu
[07:15] <Cplunsford> yeah im looking forward to downloading my halo demo soon as i get this working
[07:15] <Lounge> without wine
[07:15] <mamoru1> No, at least I don't think so.
[07:16] <Cplunsford> haha 2 days no sleep
[07:16] <|chiz|> mamoru1, is it really new hardware?
[07:16] <monaleilani> Jordan_u: which xserver driver should I pick?
[07:16] <BBHoss> u got crackdown?
[07:16] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, "nv"
[07:16] <jbrown> i have a problem :(
[07:16] <Lounge> how you go about getting halo to run in ubuntu?
[07:16] <mamoru1> No.  It's a system that's about four or five years old now.
[07:16] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, That is the open source but un accelerated driver
[07:17] <Lounge> or any other dx9 game for that matter?
[07:17] <jbrown> when i type su in terminal and it asks for my password, its returning an authentication error
[07:17] <mamoru1> ECS K7S5A motherboard, AMD Athlon XP 2000+ proc
[07:17] <jbrown> even when i put the correct password in
[07:17] <`sam`> what is the group "dip"?
[07:17] <RAOF> Lounge: You'd try wine, and if that didn't work, you'd give up.
[07:17] <BBHoss> lol
[07:17] <Jordan_U> jbrown, Ubuntu does not allow root login by default
[07:17] <BBHoss> yeah
[07:17] <|chiz|> mamoru1, have you had linux installed on it before?
[07:17] <BBHoss> sudo passwd root
[07:17] <jbrown> so how can i bypass this?
[07:17] <Jordan_U> jbrown, You can use sudo -s instead though
[07:17] <_Ahti> Actually, Wine WILL NOT be able to run Halo
[07:17] <Lounge> oh it does require wine, i understand
[07:17] <jbrown> sudo -s
[07:17] <BBHoss> or sudo su -
[07:18] <BBHoss> never tried
[07:18] <mamoru1> |chiz|: Yes.  I had breezy installed on it up until yesterday.
[07:18] <`sam`> i couldn't get halo to work
[07:18] <BBHoss> the code for halo on c sucks anyways, even on windows
[07:18] <_Ahti> I'd love to see someone actually get HALO running under WINE, won't work
[07:18] <albatroz> Hello, I wonder if there are any ubuntu guys from brazil here
[07:18] <|chiz|> mamoru1, I can't imagine why feisty wouldn't work then, perhaps you should try another install
[07:18] <Jordan_U> albatroz, There is a Brazilian channel I think
[07:19] <jbrown> ahh... thanks!
[07:19] <jbrown> i think i have it now :>
[07:19] <tonyyarusso> !br | albatroz
[07:19] <ubotu> albatroz: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[07:19] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, What is the problem?
[07:19] <Lounge> i suppose there's no profit game company in make a build for linux - it would give away the source code, right?
[07:19] <mamoru1> I've got a dapper cd lying around that I never installed.  I was thinking of saying "screw it" and just using that.
[07:19] <albatroz> thanks
[07:19] <Frogzoo> Samurai_Dan: dip is for ppp
[07:19] <Lounge> i didn't type that right
[07:19] <RAOF> Lounge: Not necessarily, but it'd be good :)
[07:19] <|chiz|> Lounge, not right
[07:19] <Jordan_U> Lounge, You can make a Linux app without releasing the source
[07:19] <Toma-> Lounge: nope. ID release all thier games for linux
[07:20] <Lounge> i would want to see a build for the linux too
[07:20] <v3n0m> I have an installation issue probably related to graphics,, ubuntu freezes after booting after install to HD, but works fine from the live-cd, the safe-graphics mode, and alternate install iso both fail midway while trying to install, the safe-graphics mode reports the following: http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/9832/2nderrorscreenlinuxsaferf1.png
[07:20] <Toma-> Lounge: they then later on, to the benefit of the community that buys their games, release the source code
[07:20] <Lounge> isn't there a "linux" version of jedi academy?
[07:21] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, If breezy installed correctly but Feisty won't it probably has to do with the LiveCD installer, try the alternate CD ( basically the same text based install that breezy used )
[07:21] <Frogzoo> `sam`: dip is for ppp
[07:21] <Lounge> i know you can make a linux server for it
[07:21] <Toma-> Lounge: no. theres an installer that uses wine to run it
[07:21] <`sam`> i don't use ppp
[07:21] <mamoru1> I wish I had known that before I downloaded it.  I'm on dialup.  I had to go over to a friend's house on one of my days off and download it.
[07:22] <lobster> anyone good with udev?
[07:22] <Toma-> Lounge: http://www.liflg.org/?catid=1
[07:22] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, Not that it is very fast but there is always shipit :)
[07:22] <jeff_> hey guys
[07:22] <Lounge> i tried ruuning jk3 in wine but it the error was couldn't locate path and base directory - not found
[07:22] <mamoru1> I didn't think shipit would ship the alternate install CD
[07:23] <|chiz|> mamoru1, why don't you download the cd?
[07:23] <mamoru1> And even if they did, I'd get the disc about the time that feisty ceased being supported. :P
[07:23] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, Oh, totally forgot about that :(
[07:23] <jeff_> i have a fairly fresh feisty install and i notice once i turn on desktop effects, quality of playback in totem drops off completely
[07:23] <jeff_> any ideas?
[07:23] <Lounge> i was trying to run it in the ntfs drive
[07:23] <mamoru1> |chiz|: dialup.  I had to go over to a friend's house on his day off and download it on his cable connection.
[07:24] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, You could get the Edubuntu CD and be not far away from standard Ubuntu ( it uses a text based installer still AFIK )
[07:24] <Pelo> jeff_,  it is possible that ou just donT' have enought video memory, I know I donT'
[07:24] <|chiz|> mamoru1, the sucks, no access from school or work either?
[07:24] <Zoffix> Hi, for some reason my Ubuntu Fiesty sees TWO CD-ROM drives (listed in "Computer" directory, one is leading to /dev/hdc/ and I cannot mount it and another leads to /dev/scd0/" I can mount my disks and but when I try to copy some files I get an I/O error. If I boot Windows is works fine, If I boot Windows via vmware it fails to read. I've noticed that it's usually .mp3, .avi and .psd files that I get I/O error on. Did anybody ever had this or has any
[07:24] <Zoffix> tips where I could check it?
[07:24] <RAOF> You can always just use the "Alternate" cd.  That's a text-mode install cd.
[07:25] <mamoru1> |chiz|: Nope.  I'm not at school and walmart (where i work) keeps their computers locked down to where you can only browse Walmart's intranet
[07:25] <Jordan_U> RAOF, He only has dial up :(
[07:25] <mamoru1> er... not even in school
[07:25] <disinterested> zoffix ru useing mplayer?
[07:25] <jeff_> Pelo, i have totem-xine though and it used to work pretty well with compiz on
[07:26] <|chiz|> mamoru1, what about the library?
[07:26] <Zoffix> disinterested, yes, but I get I/O errors when I simply try to copy files from CD/DVD to the HDD. Either with a GUI file manager or `cp`1
[07:26] <`sam`> is there a way to tell what package a file came from?
[07:26] <|chiz|> mamoru1, any universities around?
[07:26] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, Do you have another computer that you could install to then swap the hardrive into the one you want to install to?
[07:26] <Pelo> jeff_,  maybe the ppl in #ubuntu-effects can have an answer for you
[07:26] <mamoru1> I don't think my library's computers have CD burners
[07:26] <RAOF> Jordan_U: Oh, that sucks.  Just use ShipIT!
[07:26] <disinterested> idk then sorry
[07:26] <Jordan_U> RAOF, But he needs the alternate CD :(
[07:26] <mamoru1> My other computer has completely different hardware.
[07:26] <Zoffix> Who me?
[07:27] <RAOF> And you can't get the alternate CD from shipit?  Really?
[07:27] <jeff_> Pelo, thanks
[07:27] <Lounge> anybody else have issues trying to select a screensaver in the xscreensaver while running beryl-manager?
[07:27] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, You think that Linux is phased by a little change in hardware :)
[07:27] <monaleilani> Wow.. ubuntu's hanging :O
[07:27] <|chiz|> mamoru1: universities though?
[07:27] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, I think that the only things that will need fixing will be GRUB, xorg.conf and fstab
[07:28] <mamoru1> There's a community college but I doubt they're just going to let me walk in and download stuff on one of their computers.
[07:28] <monaleilani> why wouldn't they?
[07:28] <ubuntu_> Hey all
[07:28] <monaleilani> I download stuff all the time at my uni
[07:28] <|chiz|> mamoru1: my university's library is open to the general public
[07:29] <Zoffix> Hm, where can I set the drivers for my CD-ROM drive? Is it even possible?
[07:29] <mamoru1> I should have just stuck with breezy..
[07:29] <Frogzoo> Zoffix: entirely unnecessary, just leave it to the stock driver
[07:29] <monaleilani> mamoru1: I know the feeling..
[07:29] <Lounge> is there a way to make your ubuntu windows transparent?
[07:29] <Zoffix> Frogzoo, but it's not working :/
[07:30] <Zoffix> Frogzoo, I need to use my CD-ROM drive and not get all there I/O errors.
[07:30] <Frogzoo> Zoffix: what's not working?
[07:30] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, How much memory do you have? If your install problem is just that you have too little memory for the LiveCD installer you may be able to get by using a pen drive for swap during the install
[07:30] <CraZy675> where does adept download its packages?  Im trying to install flash but its taking forever to download
[07:30] <mamoru1> And I wish I didn't live in a veritable internet deadzone.
[07:30] <|chiz|> mamoru1: find the library there and go up the assistants desk and tell them that you don't go to school there but you are doing some research and would like to have access to a computer, it should work
[07:30] <Jordan_U> Lounge, WIth desktop effects, Yes
[07:30] <Zoffix> Frogzoo, for some reason my Ubuntu Fiesty sees TWO CD-ROM drives (listed in "Computer" directory, one is leading to /dev/hdc/ and I cannot mount it and another leads to /dev/scd0/" I can mount my disks and but when I try to copy some files I get an I/O error. If I boot Windows is works fine, If I boot Windows via vmware it fails to read. I've noticed that it's usually .mp3, .avi and .psd files that I get I/O error on.
[07:30] <mamoru1> Jordan_U: I've got 1GB of ram
[07:30] <Frogzoo> CraZy675: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[07:30] <coded1> hello all
[07:30] <flowingfire> Hi!  Azureus opens and crashes immediately.  Any ideas?
[07:30] <CraZy675> Frogzoo: thanks
[07:30] <Jordan_U> mamoru1, That is more than enough so that isn't the problem :(
[07:30] <Lounge>  but i wonder if it can be done without compiz or is that out of the question?
[07:31] <Lounge> or do i need the emerald on?
[07:31] <Zoffix> flowingfire, install a different version of ... um search Synaptic for either "java machine" or "jrm" I had that before, installed a different java machine and it worked.
[07:31] <Carnage\> I connected to a machine in the network with ssh -X and executed firefox, but somehow it uses the firefox on my own machine then, how can that be?
[07:31] <Angel> somebody here?

[07:31] <Angel> Excuse is this the right place for a newbie?
[07:31] <|chiz|> Jordan_U: I'm pretty sure mamoru1 had the boot cd working fine it was just after the install that the system wouldn't boot
[07:31] <Lounge> i can't find "desktop effects" it's not there
[07:31] <TKD> hola
[07:31] <Zoffix> Frogzoo, any ideas? Or at least where I could change the driver to something else maybe?

[07:32] <|chiz|> mamoru1, you should give your feisty live-cd installer anohter go
[07:32] <Jordan_U> Angel, Yup :)
[07:32] <RAOF> Lounge: System->Preferences->Desktop Effects?  Alternatively, hit #ubuntu-effects
[07:32] <Angel> well i want to learn linux
[07:32] <Jordan_U> Angel, This is the place :)
[07:32] <mamoru1> I've done it twice now.
[07:32] <Lounge> nope not there
[07:32] <monaleilani> God bless ndisgtk.
[07:32] <Angel> i just bought a shuny cpc for vista
[07:32] <coded1> im having problems with booting the live "Ubuntu-Ultimate-Edition" and my ati 9800pro all i get is min resolution and refresh and will not allow me to change the settings, any suggested reading?
[07:32] <Angel> sorry - shiny pc for vista
[07:33] <Angel> and my old one is ready to lear new things
[07:33] <Jordan_U> coded1, Use the restricted drivers manager
[07:33] <Frogzoo> Zoffix: not really sure, usually it just works
[07:33] <Jordan_U> coded1, System -> Administration -> Restricted Drivers Manager
[07:33] <Zoffix> Frogzoo, yeah, it was working fine on Edgy
[07:33] <Angel> I know nothing, I would like to know if someone could explain to me the difference between ubuntu and ubuntu studio
[07:33] <RAOF> coded1, Jordan_U: Hm, the 9800pro *should* work awesomely out of the box.
[07:34] <Lounge> #ubuntu-effects  is this a terminal command?
[07:34] <Angel> i like the gui if studio
[07:34] <coded1> Jordan_U, cool i didnt try that yet
[07:34] <Angel> of*
[07:34] <RAOF> coded1: Maybe ask crdlb about it?  He's got an ati card :)
[07:34] <Zoffix> Lounge, it's an IRC channel
[07:34] <mamoru1> I may give it another try but I figure if it didn't work the first two times, it's probably not going to work the third.
[07:34] <Pelo> g'night folks, I'm off to dream land
[07:34] <RAOF> Lounge: As in "/join #ubuntu-effects" in your IRC client.
[07:34] <Jordan_U> RAOF, Ahh, do you think he might be using VESA for some reason?
[07:34] <jbrown> ok, im trying to install java runtime in mozilla
[07:34] <Angel> but I understand ubuntu is the way to go, now if I choose ubuntu studio over ubuntu regular, what am ia missing?
[07:35] <Zoffix> Seems like other people are having similar issues: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/94119/comments/7
[07:35] <jbrown> i need to figure out where the mozilla install directory is in default ubuntu
[07:35] <RAOF> Angel: You're not missing anything.  All the ubuntu variants can install anything from any other variant.
[07:35] <Jordan_U> Angel, You aren't really missing anything other than possibly a little stability
[07:35] <monaleilani> Ubuntu is hanging while my wireless card is being configured.. Should I force a restart, or will ubuntu come out of it?
[07:36] <jbrown> anyone know?
[07:36] <Angel> i have a athlon machine ready to go, i gave away my memory so now i have to buy some, could you tell me how much is neccesary to run smoothly?
[07:36] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, It may not come out of it but a hard reboot is almost never needed.
[07:36] <Angel> is an athlon xp 2.0
[07:36] <monaleilani> It's just that I can't do anything else.. Nothing is responding at all
[07:36] <Lounge> ok i get it now
[07:36] <monaleilani> not mouse, not keyboard, not anything
[07:37] <Angel> will ububtu studio run over it?
[07:37] <jbrown> anyone know mozilla's default installation directory in ubuntu?
[07:37] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, Before doing a hard reboot try ctrl+alt+backspace
[07:37] <Lounge> you need to have beryl-manager runing for the desktop-effects
[07:37] <Madpilot> jbrown, whereever it needs to be
[07:37] <monaleilani> Already tried it..
[07:37] <Lounge> i see
[07:37] <Angel> beryl manager?
[07:37] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, If that doesn't work try alt+sysrq+K
[07:37] <monaleilani> It's reeeally not responsive :(
[07:37] <monaleilani> what's sysrq?
[07:37] <jbrown> Madpilot: i'm trying to install java so i can play browser games.. any help?
[07:38] <Madpilot> jbrown, read the !java thing from the bot?
[07:38] <jbrown> !java
[07:38] <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
[07:38] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, A key that lets you send commands directly to the kernel, it is usually the second ( fn ) of printscreen
[07:38] <monaleilani> not even my cd-drive is responding..
[07:38] <kazim59> i heard some bad news about feisty... u cannot uninstall many programs (like gaim evolution)...?
[07:39] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, so probably alt+fn+sysrq+k
[07:39] <Angel> also i understan ubuntu es debian based and by example sabayon is gentuu based, i liked both, could someone tell me the differences between a gentuu and a debian system?
[07:39] <Madpilot> kazim59, not sure where you heard that, but both gaim & evolution are installed by default in Feisty..
[07:39] <Jordan_U> kazim59, No, you can uninstall any program
[07:40] <somian[1] > Angel: Gentoo is a source-based meta distibutin with a completely different design of package management.
[07:40] <Madpilot> kazim59, gah.. *UN*install - not reading things right tonight... yes, you can remove them if you want.
[07:40] <Angel> somian
[07:40] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, ( that tells the kernel to kill whatever is running on the current tty, in this case X )
[07:40] <Angel> dont gt angry but i did not understood a word you said!! :S
[07:41] <monaleilani> dangit
[07:41] <monaleilani> I did a hard reboot.. the key didn't work
[07:41] <monaleilani> and now it's detecting my wireless card again.. and hanging.
[07:41] <kazim59> Madpilot: it removes components that it should not remove!
[07:41] <v3n0m> I have an installation issue probably related to graphics,, ubuntu freezes after booting after install to HD, but works fine from the live-cd, the safe-graphics mode, and alternate install iso both fail midway while trying to install, the safe-graphics mode reports the following: http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/9832/2nderrorscreenlinuxsaferf1.png
[07:41] <lobster> ha!
[07:42] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, that is why I think NDIS wrapper is a hack :(
[07:42] <Angel> what do you mean by source based meta? the packager more or less, like it ask different options when configuring? right?
[07:42] <Madpilot> kazim59, removing either gaim or evo will remove ubuntu-desktop, but that's just a metapackage - removing it doesn't matter except when it's time to upgrade to the next release
[07:42] <somian[1] > Angel, why would i get angry? But you must face reality or very few people with any intelligence will want to speak to you here.
[07:43] <somian[1] > Angel: you *must* seek a IRC channel that uses your native language.
[07:43] <Angel> why, is my english not good?  after all you did educated me
[07:43] <Angel> I mean   , I wento to my MBA in the USA
[07:44] <monaleilani> i don't think i really have an alternative though..
[07:44] <Angel> just i dont understand linux at all yet
[07:44] <mamoru1> Okay.  So I'm installing feisty again.  Only this time, I'm going to opt to stay in the liveCD and just mount the partition and check to see if the files are there.
[07:44] <TakeOut{u}> lol mba
[07:44] <astrobit> does anybody know how to mount an ipod nano and manage it with GTK pod?
[07:45] <Toma-> Angel: with your level of experience, you might want to stick to a simple system like ubuntu. you can always run sabayon from qemu within Ubuntu
[07:45] <Angel> not bad at windows, but I dont find a similarity where I can grab myself and understand the rest
[07:45] <Jordan_U> astrobit, Is it mac formatted ( hfs+ ) or windows formatted ( FAT ) ?
[07:45] <astrobit> hfs
[07:45] <Toma-> Angel: if you dont like ubuntu, you can install sabayon :)
[07:45] <astrobit> hfs plus
[07:45] <astrobit> and it tells me its in read-only
[07:45] <astrobit> but i added the rw lines
[07:45] <kazim59> Madpilot: you mean one is not supposed to remove them?
[07:45] <kazim59> Madpilot: or the package ubuntu-desktop is not required?
[07:45] <monaleilani> Jordan_U: You kept telling me to use restricted-drivers stuff, but when I loaded it there was nothing really there, wasn't sure how to use it
[07:46] <Angel> I dont like to experiment a lot, I wish to be able to have a solid system and learn at the same time
[07:46] <nailbiter> astrobit: The Linux 'hfsplus' driver will refuse to mount the volume readwrite if it hasn't been unmounted cleanly
[07:46] <Jordan_U> astrobit, Write support for HFS+ is flakey, at the least you need to disable jounaling, I would reformat it though
[07:46] <genii> astrobit Did you unmount/remount after changing it to rw?
[07:46] <Madpilot> kazim59, the metapackage can be removed, it's only required when you upgrade
[07:46] <Angel> is ubuntu studio the way to go, I do like to edit movies and music
[07:46] <Angel> thand the GUI I do like a lot
[07:46] <astrobit> yea genii
[07:47] <Angel> *and
[07:47] <Jordan_U> genii, Linux does not support HFS+ RW
[07:47] <Toma-> Angel: well use ubuntu. it will install and configure itself. as for ubuntustudio, you can install that ontop of ubuntu
[07:47] <astrobit> ok... i'll format it in some windows machine then
[07:47] <astrobit> seems like the easier chicken way out :D
[07:47] <astrobit> LOL
[07:48] <genii> Jordan_U: Weird, I was pretty sure it did. For instance basilisk II seems to
[07:48] <genii> (tho it is an emulator, certainly)
[07:48] <Angel> Toma if I partition my hard disk in order to have ubuntu and XP, is there a guide on how to  make a dual boot with ubuntu? and is there also a guide how to get to know the GUI and the OS?
[07:48] <Jordan_U> genii, Only with journaling disabled
[07:48] <monaleilani> jordan_u: how does the restricted drivers manager work?
[07:49] <Toma-> Angel: yes. the ubuntu installer will setup dual booting for you
[07:49] <astrobit> thank you all!
[07:49] <Angel> do I have to install ubuntu first or windows?
[07:49] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, It just checks to see if there are proprietary drivers needed for your hardware to function and if so offers to install them
[07:49] <Myrtti> windows
[07:49] <monaleilani> ah
[07:49] <genii> Angel better to put windows first
[07:49] <Angel> ok
[07:49] <Toma-> Angel: windows first, then ubuntu.
[07:49] <monaleilani> how would i get that to work with d-link?
[07:49] <monaleilani> only nvidia came up.
[07:49] <monaleilani> I'm going to uninstall ndiswrapper
[07:49] <Toma-> Angel: better yet, you could make a partition for ubuntu, windows AND sabayon, and run them all
[07:50] <monaleilani> I can't have it hanging like that
[07:50] <bullgard4> What does it mean "a driver is _queried_ by /proc"? (In my case the driver is 'battery')
[07:50] <Angel> really?
[07:50] <ubuntu__> I need a way to get ubuntu on a thumbdrive
[07:50] <genii> Angel then let the boot manager for linux install, use that to choose which to boot
[07:50] <ubuntu__> or get DSL >.>
[07:50] <Angel> can i have a three system boot up?
[07:50] <Toma-> Angel: sure.
[07:50] <Angel> to try them up?
[07:50] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, That I would assume means that there are no Linux native drivers for your card, open source or otherwise :(
[07:50] <ubuntu__> you could have 3 billion
[07:50] <Angel> ohh
[07:50] <ubuntu__> if you had that much spaec
[07:50] <genii> Angel Windows will wipe out the linux boot manager , that is why it must go on first
[07:50] <monaleilani> Grr.
[07:50] <Angel> yeah
[07:50] <Jordan_U> Angel, Yes
[07:50] <Toma-> Angel: you can have as many Linux versions as you like booting, provided you set up the partitions correctly
[07:50] <monaleilani> I wonder why ndiswrapper doesn't work as well with FF
[07:50] <Angel> ok I understand that part
[07:51] <monaleilani> it worked great with EE
[07:51] <ubuntu__> you shouldn't need ndiswrapper for most devices monaleilani
[07:51] <Lounge> ok i fixed the problem
[07:51] <nailbiter> bullgard4: It means that you can peek at the driver's state by reading files in /proc.  For example, try "cat /proc/acpi/battery/BAT0/info".
[07:51] <rredd4> I could not find this:  Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"  in the screen section of your xorg.conf.   when I reconfig xorg
[07:51] <Lounge> desktop-effects needed to be installed
[07:52] <Angel> if I want to particion the disk and give ububtu 10 Gb , will it be sufficient for learning purposes? or ubuntu needs more?
[07:52] <jlulian38> ubuntu needs 4gigs
[07:52] <rredd4> where is it?
[07:52] <jlulian38> but 10 is enough
[07:52] <Angel> ram. how much would you suggest
[07:52] <bullgard4> nailbiter: I need a moment to think about your answer and understand it. --  Thank you.
[07:52] <killown> I am try compile cyrus-ssal but I get error make[2] : ** [digestmd5.lo]  Erro 1
[07:52] <killown>   what a do to fix it?
[07:52] <Angel> i know more is better
[07:52] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, I don't know if you had a choice but it is really nice to have all open source supported hardware, it is even worth a little exra cost ( though that usually isn't even necessary )
[07:52] <Angel> but but minimum?
[07:53] <trpr> Angel: i think something like 256mb is considered a minimum these days
[07:53] <trpr> Angel: but those guidelines are worthless. i have ancient machines running linux ;)
[07:53] <grndslm> 512 is minimum!!!
[07:53] <Angel> so 512 will be fine? to run everythig I want? movies , sounds etc?
[07:53] <Angel> ok ok
[07:54] <Jordan_U> Angel, Depends on what
[07:54] <Angel> do I need an antivirus or is linux really virus free?
[07:54] <nailbiter> killown: You need to paste more of the error for us to work out what's wrong.
[07:54] <Jordan_U> Angel, It is really Virus free :)
[07:54] <Jordan_U> !virus | Angel
[07:54] <ubotu> Angel: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[07:54] <monaleilani> Jordan_U: I bought this wireless card before I started using ubuntu... I know I can get it to work.. it worked before..
[07:55] <Zach_> hey
[07:55] <Angel> I like kaspersky, do you know if it runs well on ubuntu?
[07:55] <Zach_> can anyone help me to install pidgin?
[07:56] <killown> nailbiter, http://rafb.net/p/rva4pL97.html
[07:56] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, The folks at #ndiswraper would tell you to install vanilla NDIS from source, they always tell people that Ubuntu's packages are horrible apparently
[07:56] <variant> Angel: it doesn't run at all on ubuntu. you don't need av
[07:56] <monaleilani> ahh
[07:56] <varka> jlulian38: http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-install-ubuntu-linux-on-usb-bar
[07:56] <orbin> Jordan_U: sometimes it's true.  i can't use feisty's version b/c a bug in it basically won't let me connect
[07:56] <variant> Angel: plus, kaspersky is garbage
[07:56] <Angel> I am reading the page, he he
[07:57] <Angel> really?
[07:57] <jbrown> thanks Madpilot
[07:57] <nailbiter> killown: Still not enough. :) Those are just compiler warnings; the error itself is further up
[07:57] <variant> !av | Angel
[07:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about av - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:57] <Angel> I really love kaspersky, it is fast in a pc you know?
[07:57] <Jordan_U> variant, I spammed that to him already :)
[07:57] <Zach_> angel
[07:57] <Zach_> you don't need antivirus
[07:57] <purpzey> Is there a way to protect a partition which contains factory defaults when installing Ubuntu, such that if my ubuntu install goes totally fubar or something goes wrong I can recover from that partition?
[07:57] <variant> Jordan_U: ahh, k :)
[07:58] <variant> purpzey: just don't format it..
[07:58] <Jordan_U> purpzey, Back it up?
[07:58] <variant> Angel: /join #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:58] <optix> hi room
[07:58] <purpzey> variant: How would I then recover from it? I'd need a necessary boot CD or something similar?
[07:58] <Angel> off topic
[07:58] <variant> purpzey: if you back it up or what?
[07:58] <Angel> ok
[07:59] <Sam_> hey
[07:59] <Sam_> anyone here
[07:59] <Sam_> can anyone help me with vpn
[07:59] <variant> Sam_: just ask your question
[07:59] <Sam_> im running  a pptpd vpn
[07:59] <optix> hi room im a new ubuntu user i need help anyone here could help?
[07:59] <Sam_> server
[07:59] <variant> !anyone | Sam_
[07:59] <ubotu> Sam_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:59] <variant> !anyone | optix
[07:59] <ubotu> optix: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:59] <Sam_> i have a windows computer, how do i connect my windows computer to my pptpd server
[07:59] <variant> Sam_: printer server?
[08:00] <Sam_> no file server
[08:00] <purpzey> variant: Well, if I leave the partition as it is, and then have Ubuntu remove my XP partition, but leave the backup partition remaining....If I wanted to, how would I then restore the Ubuntu partition from the backup partition?
[08:00] <optix> any here have a lot knowledge on ubuntu?
[08:00] <Sam_> so when someone connects to my vpn server, they can read the files
[08:00] <variant> Sam_: and it's an ubuntu server right?
[08:00] <Jordan_U> Sam_, Maybe that is a better question for #windows
[08:00] <Sam_> the VPN is on ubuntu yes
[08:00] <purpzey> It is a factory installed default partition.
[08:00] <CraZy675> okay what is the trick to installing flash player 9?
[08:00] <Sam_> but i have a windows computer i want to read the files of of
[08:00] <variant> purpzey: sorry, i thought you ment a winxp backup partition
[08:00] <Jordan_U> CraZy675, Go to a site that needs flash, let firefox install flash9 :)
[08:00] <optix> putang ina nyo
[08:00] <genii> optix The best thing is just to ask your specific question that is causing you an issue, then see if someone may have the answer for you
[08:01] <nailbiter> Sam_: So the Ubuntu computer is the VPN _client_?  And you want to connect to a VPN server running Windows XP?
[08:01] <variant> purpzey: so how would you normally back ubuntu up from that?
[08:01] <Sam_> no
[08:01] <monaleilani> how do I install software from source? I understand I type "make" in the directory.. but then what?
[08:01] <kronoman> hello
[08:01] <Sam_> the ubuntu server is the VPN server
[08:01] <variant> !compile | monaleilani
[08:01] <homanj> monaleilani: usually make install
[08:01] <ubotu> monaleilani: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:01] <Sam_> i want to be able to like connect this computer to the VPN server the files off this computer i want to be on the vpn server
[08:01] <kronoman> I installed KDE on top of my Ubuntu... now the splash screen changed to Kubuntu... how I switch back to Ubuntu splash screen??
[08:01] <huey> hi, anyone know the Path to TRASH BIN, and how to access that TRASH folder in Terminal?
[08:01] <CraZy675> Jordan_U: it never seems to download
[08:01] <Pijiu> how do I get rmvb files to play without having to use realplayer
[08:01] <variant> !splash | kronoman
[08:01] <ubotu> kronoman: To change the Gnome splash screen, use !gnome-splashscreen-manager or change the GConf key /apps/gnome-session/options/splash_image using !gconf-editor.
[08:01] <genii> monaleilani: First you need certain things as prerequisite, like the package build-essential    then the normal process would be to do: make   then make install
[08:01] <Sam_> the files are on this server, so when people connect to teh vpn server (on ubuntu) they can read files all over my copmuter
[08:02] <kronoman> ubotu: I mean the boot splash and powerdown
[08:02] <orbin> huey: ~/.Trash
[08:02] <variant> kronoman: ubotu is a bot
[08:02] <huey> Orbin: let me try
[08:02] <variant> !bootsplash | kronoman
[08:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bootsplash - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:02] <variant> bah
[08:02] <kronoman> huey: the path to trash is .Trash
[08:02] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, You will need to do "sudo apt-get build-dep ndiswrapper ( or whatever the package is )" first though
[08:02] <Sam_> so like is there anything i need to do so that my files on this computer a read when people login the vpn server
[08:02] <purpzey> variant: Maybe I was unclear...If so I apologize completely...I am looking to install Ubuntu on my laptop which is currently running XP...It also has a partition installed by factory, that restores to straight up factory settings...If I removed the XP partition and replaced it with the Ubuntu partition...but leaving the backup partition in place..If I then wanted to restore from that partition, how would that work?
[08:02] <kronoman> huey: in example, cd ~/.Trash
[08:02] <orbin> !restricted > Pijiu (read pm from ubotu)
[08:03] <huey> thanks
[08:03] <huey> I got it
[08:03] <kronoman> huey: what I don't know if the path to trash is the same in gnome and kde
[08:03] <kronoman> any clue on that?
[08:03] <huey> I used GNOME so it should be OK
[08:03] <Sam_> is there anything i can do i have webmin and webmin stuff, but i can do command prompt too
[08:03] <Jordan_U> purpzey, GRUB will probably detect the recovery partition and make a menu item for booting it.
[08:03] <variant> purpzey: with your OEM windows cd i presume. ask that question in #windows if you want a decent answer
[08:04] <nailbiter> Sam_: If you already have the VPN service set up, you just need to enable file-sharing
[08:04] <Sam_> .....
[08:04] <Sam_> ok
[08:04] <purpzey> Ok. Thanks guys.
[08:04] <Sam_> do i need to enable file sharing on the server
[08:04] <huey> Anyone know the Command Line for PURGING all of the FILES in TRASH BIN? Because I could not EMPTY my TRASHBIN
[08:04] <Sam_> or is it a client to client thingy
[08:04] <Toma-> huey: you dont NEED to use CAPS that mucH :)
[08:05] <genii> purpzey On some machines like Dell or some Compaq the grub boot manager sees these system partitions fine and makes entries for them
[08:05] <Toma-> huey: 'rm -rf .trash/*'
[08:05] <optix> any here offer chat?
[08:05] <nailbiter> Sam_: Did you want to share files on the Ubuntu VPN server? Or did you want to make the VPN clients' file shares visible to each other in the Windows Network Neighbourhood browser?
[08:05] <optix> i need hhelp to my ubuntu thnx
[08:05] <Sam_> second option
[08:05] <Sam_> i want this computer turned on, connected to vpn

[08:07] <ubotu> optix: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[08:07] <optix> ok thnx i wily trry
[08:07] <monaleilani> i keep typing make and it tells me: no rule to make target 'hal_exports.h', needed by 'gen_exports'. Stop.
[08:07] <Sam_> so i need to enable samba in teh pptpd server
[08:07] <monaleilani> make: *** [all]  Error 2
[08:07] <Sam_> i dont have the samba server isntalled on my webmin, so im installing that now
[08:07] <Jordan_U> monaleilani, You need to ./configure first
[08:08] <optix> what is the best linux out now?
[08:08] <monaleilani> okay
[08:08] <variant> optix: thats a stupid question in an ubuntu channel
[08:08] <variant> which is asked suprisingly often
[08:08] <homanj> optix: what variant said
[08:08] <homanj> optix: i'd say whatever you feel comfortable with.
[08:08] <variant> optix: obviously, ubuntu
[08:08] <variant> :P
[08:09] <Frogzoo> optix: there is no best - it's which distro best meets your needs
[08:09] <Sam_> ok so i need to install samba server and config it to work with Pptpd
[08:09] <Sam_> ??
[08:09] <optix> coz im having problem using ubuntu
[08:09] <optix> :(
[08:09] <genii> optix It depends what you want to do with it. for normal people Ubuntu is about the most friendly and does what they need. For people that run servers, there are other types like Debian and RedHat for instance
[08:09] <h4wk0> optix; red hat ftw.
[08:09] <pr0tekk> my pony ate my ubuntu disk
[08:09] <varka> bullgard4: http://www.oreilly.de/german/freebooks/rlinux3ger/ch057.html
[08:09] <nailbiter> bullgard4: What exactly are you looking for? Normally, the stuff in /proc is used mainly by programs, not humans to talk to low-level drivers
[08:10] <variant> Sam_: if you have a working vpn then you don't need to change samba at all, just use the default config
[08:10] <Frogzoo> optix: perhaps if you described your problem people might help
[08:10] <Sam_> but samba i not installed
[08:10] <Sam_> people can connect to vpn fine
[08:10] <variant> Sam_: install samba, as you already know
[08:10] <monaleilani> ./configure didn't work..
[08:10] <monaleilani> Wow, I suck.
[08:10] <optix> Package wine is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[08:10] <optix> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[08:10] <optix> is only available from another source
[08:10] <optix> E: Package wine has no installation candidate

[08:11] <Sam_> ok
[08:11] <monaleilani> I read that.
[08:11] <Frogzoo> optix: did you read the pm from ubotu?

[08:11] <ubotu> optix ( optix read this:): wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.

[08:12] <variant> t94xr-lappy: -R
[08:12] <t94xr-lappy> ah
[08:12] <nailbiter> Sam_: Basically, Samba provides a WINS server, which keeps track of Windows clients and lets them see each other in the Network Neighbourhood browser
[08:12] <variant> t94xr-lappy: man chown
[08:12] <AD|Sleep> Whot is unbutnu

[08:13] <optix> is it possible to install online window based gaame in linux ubuntu?

[08:13] <variant> AD|Sleep: er, ubuntu.com
[08:13] <leninIdebian> @optix search for wine
[08:14] <nailbiter> optix: You can try running it in emulation. 3D games are not easy to get working, though
[08:14] <Sam_> ok
[08:14] <varka> optix: http://appdb.winehq.org/
[08:14] <Sam_> also when you connect to vpn
[08:14] <kocis> ciekaw jestem ilu tu Polakow... :)
[08:14] <Sam_> are you supposed to lose internet connection adn only communicate with teh vpn
[08:14] <Sam_> like you cannot go on website through IE or FX
[08:15] <genii> optix Many games for windows run in ubuntu (using wine) but if they use something like directX it can be a headache to configure them properly. also they do not neccesarily run as quickly as you would like
[08:15] <variant> Sam_: ask in #windows as this is no longer an ubuntu support issue
[08:15] <kon> hello, i have to question: how can i make my nvidia raid5 array work (it's asking for raid45 kernel module but it isnt there) and how do i enable PAE for 4GB RAM? i have downloaded the 7.04 x86 installer.
[08:15] <optix> bro i try to install and follow all instruction installing wine but always fail
[08:15] <optix> :(
[08:15] <optix> no luck
[08:15] <Sam_> ok thank you so much
[08:15] <nokorit_> how reliable is ubuntu as a serer?
[08:16] <nokorit_> server*
[08:16] <leninIdebian> @optix: did you install the windows lib stuff?
[08:16] <variant> nokorit_: as any other gnu/linux distro
[08:16] <Red15> nokorit_:  about as stable as any other linux
[08:16] <Red15> lol variant
[08:16] <nailbiter> Sam_: When the Windows client connects to the VPN, _all_ their traffic goes through the VPN connection. So if the client cannot connect to the Internet, it means the VPN server isn't forwarding their traffic properly
[08:16] <genii> nokorit_: Since it is based on Debian, it is fairly stable
[08:16] <nailbiter> Sam_: You can fix this by enabling NAT on the VPNserver
[08:16] <trpr> nokorit_: i have heard good things. personally i use debian sarge for my servers
[08:16] <elazar_> Beryl get's stuck after a while I'm using it. However if I'm not using the computer, it seems to be stable.
[08:16] <nokorit_> how is it compare to redhat?
[08:16] <Sam_> ok thank you
[08:16] <Sam_> do you know how to do that with
[08:17] <Sam_> poptop
[08:17] <pr0tekk> So, now that my pony ate ubuntu, say i had sex with the pony, would it make ubuntuponies?
[08:17] <elazar_> There's no particular effect I'm using, it's just being dead
[08:17] <Sam_> or pptpd
[08:17] <Sam_> enable NAT?
[08:17] <variant> nokorit_: try it and se
[08:17] <leninIdebian> nokorit_: if you dont need the newest pakages use debian
[08:17] <nailbiter> Sam_: You can install the 'ipmasq' package to turn on NAT. That's all you need to do
[08:17] <Red15> nokorit_:  we at work switched recently from CentOS to ubuntu server can't say I regret the ease
[08:17] <variant> pr0tekk: that is rather offtopic (and innapropriate)
[08:17] <Sam_> ipmasq
[08:17] <Sam_> is that like apt-get ipmasq?
[08:17] <Sam_> apt-get install ipmasq?
[08:17] <nailbiter> Sam_: That's right. "apt-get install ipmasq".
[08:17] <leninIdebian> nokorit_: otherwise ubuntu is a good thing
[08:17] <Sam_> kk thxs
[08:17] <genii> nokorit_: It depends on what the server is mainly used for. If standard type LAMP server, then they are about the same. It is just a matter of preference. Ubuntu and debian use a different way to install packages which some prefer to the rpm system in redhat
[08:18] <optix> i didn't install windows lib stuff. . aand how to install it? :)

[08:41] <kristjan_> is where ubuntu edgy eft release with latest updates allready applied?
[08:42] <RAOF> kristjan_: Why would you want that?  Feisty is the latest release, and Dapper is the current LTS release.
[08:42] <Madpilot> kristjan_, if you want the latest version of Ubuntu, it's 7.04  or Feisty Fawn

[08:44] <kristjan_> RAOF and Madpilot I have feisty fawn, but I also need edgy eft for a few technical reasons you aren't really interested
[08:45] <Frogzoo> kristjan_: mix & matching packages across releases is going to give you grief

[06:25] <erUSUL> |grub | livecd6ten
[06:25] <erUSUL> !grub | livecd6ten

[06:25] <kandrews> Hi, I have audacious installed with the timidity plug-in but I can't get the player to play midi files. Do I need to install something else?
[06:25] <sivik> ok, i installed the needed java plugin but i'm still getting the following error: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21450/
[06:25] <timmay> Frogzoo: do you have a link with a default menu.lst for multiple installs of ubuntu?
[06:25] <binary_goofy> hi room. can somebody pls help me with gettng qtorrent working?
[06:25] <lou_> i haven't had any probs with instaling GRUB where it wants to go
[06:26] <erUSUL> !midi
[06:26] <ubotu> Trouble playing MIDI files? Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MidiSoftwareSynthesisHowTo
[06:26] <livecd6ten> should i install GRUB to (hd0) default, or am i supposed to change it to hd1 or something else?
[06:26] <lou_> just leave it at default
[06:26] <sivik> livecd6ten, default is good
[06:27] <livecd6ten> i read that dell 6400 frezzes when booting
[06:27] <EightEleven> Molluck: Did any of the other toshiba packages help?
[06:27] <slinky_> Does Ubuntu 64-bit support ATI Crossfire cards?
[06:27] <livecd6ten> but if u change where grub is installed it will be fine
[06:27] <Molluck> EightEleven, i didn't see any, and i was unable to add any more repositories.
[06:27] <slimz> im trying to run an xdmcp session using cygwin on winxp, i see the login screen for ubuntu, but when i logon, nothing happens, only a brown screen, is there a step i might of missed?
[06:27] <Molluck> EightEleven, settings > repositories lead me to a dead end.
[06:28] <lou_> default should be fine
[06:28] <EightEleven> Are you using Ubuntu 6.10 or 7.04?
[06:28] <sivik> i'm going to kill java
[06:29] <cyber_brain_mfkg> !superboot
[06:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about superboot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:29] <timmay> Frogzoo: Looks like I need to add a root= param to the kernel line??
[06:29] <delta9thc1> AndyCR: if you want answer me in pvt,thx
[06:29] <livecd6ten> is it ok to keep gaim open while installing?
[06:29] <slinky_> Where can i get support for ubuntu 64-bit?
[06:29] <lou_> ya
[06:29] <AndyCR> livecd6ten: yeah
[06:30] <PriceChild> slinky_, here is good
[06:30] <livecd6ten> ive started install and am still connected
[06:30] <livecd6ten> ok good
[06:30] <slinky_> PriceChild: does ubuntu 64-bit support ATI Crossfire cards?
[06:30] <PriceChild> slinky_, I don't know sorry.
[06:30] <Frogzoo> timmay: you need to change boot the root= params
[06:31] <Frogzoo> timmay: you need to change both the root= params
[06:31] <slinky_> thank you PriceChild
[06:31] <Frogzoo> timmay: and put the section _outside_ of the autogenerated section
[06:31] <Molluck> EightEleven, you have left me hanging here....
[06:31] <walrus> newbie question: how do i do a md5 checksum ?? i already have the .MD5SUM file and the ISO file ...
[06:31] <PriceChild> walrus, md5sum file
[06:31] <jpjacobs> walrus, md5sum -c <md5sum file>
[06:31] <EightEleven> Molluck: I asked which version of Ubuntu you are using, 6.10 or 7.04?
[06:32] <Molluck> EightEleven, i did not see that. i am using 7.04
[06:32] <walrus> PriceChild: jpjacobs: thx
[06:32] <jpjacobs> np
[06:32] <timmay> Frogzoo: I see, I copy/pasted the primary one and didnt change the root= param, I see it is set to UUID= and then a GUID, I am assuming that is the ID of the drive. I tried changing to /dev/hdb1 but that didnt work..
[06:32] <EightEleven> Molluck: No problem, under settings>repositories, you will probably see a list with 5 options, right?
[06:33] <yeniklasor> Hi, when system is booting I want to disable splash screen and add system information to it. How can I do this?
[06:33] <EightEleven> Molluck: And an option to select your local server
[06:34] <Molluck> EightEleven, it says, downloadable from the internet... then 4 options. another one that says "source code" and beneath that is a dropdown list button.
[06:34] <sivik> what am i doing wrong to make java not work, i installed the plugin and its still not working trying to play gemes at games.yahoo.com
[06:34] <EightEleven> Molluck: Good, is the 2nd option universe?
[06:34] <Frogzoo> timmay: you can get the UUID from the output of blkid
[06:34] <Esaj> anyone know if there's a backport of thunderbird 2 for feisty?
[06:34] <Molluck> EightEleven, affirmative.
[06:34] <EightEleven> Molluck: Is it enabled?
[06:34] <Molluck> EightEleven, yes.
[06:34] <Molluck> EightEleven, they are bad labeling options clearly.
[06:35] <hoffmanc_> hello, has anyone run into a problem where lightty won't stop via the initscript in dapper?
[06:35] <yeniklasor> Hi, when system is booting I want to disable splash screen and add system information to it (like knoppix). How can I do this?
[06:35] <EightEleven> Molluck: Appearently, but if you now press reload in Synaptic and then search for "toshiba", then it should find 3 packages
[06:35] <sivik> what am i doing wrong to make java not work, i installed the plugin and its still not working trying to play gemes at games.yahoo.com
[06:36] <paulo> allchan
[06:36] <Molluck> EightEleven, it found the 3 packages already... 2 of which were marked in green. the other.. um

[06:38] <hydan> isn't there a bundle of sofware that doesn't come with ubuntu that you can download...
[06:38] <timmay> Frogzoo: strange.. if I set my root to root(hd0,0) and my root= param to /dev/hdb1, it shows the kubuntu load screen(which is installed on hd0) but loads into ubuntu (installed on hd1)
[06:38] <hydan> i know that's vague.
[06:38] <jpjacobs> !helpme | paulo
[06:38] <ubotu> paulo: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:38] <EightEleven> Molluck: Usually it's written on the outside.
[06:38] <EightEleven> Something like sattelite or latitude
[06:38] <yeniklasor> # defoptions=quiet splash     isn't # mean is don't do this?
[06:38] <neverblue> hydan, you edit your sources.list, then update it
[06:38] <void^> yeniklasor: yes. if you just modify that bit you'll have to run update-grub to make it take effect.
[06:38] <Molluck> EightEleven, psaa2u-005019 (model number)
[06:38] <hydan> haha. you guys are amazing.
[06:38] <void^> yeniklasor: it's an update-grub thing. read the comments above to understand.

[06:39] <hydan> 1000+ people and you manage to answer my simple question :P
[06:39] <yeniklasor> ok void^ thanks
[06:39] <neverblue> yeniklasor, yes, a line preceeded by a # means its a comment

[06:39] <sivik> ok, i am doing something totally wrong, i can't get java to run for games.yahoo.com from mozilla, i followed the howto, what else cam i don't wrong
[06:40] <EightEleven> Molluck: So it's a Toshiba Satellite A105-S171?
[06:40] <rambo3> sivik, restart firefox ?
[06:40] <sivik> did that
[06:40] <sea> you should use apt-get instead of synaptic to install java
[06:40] <sivik> same error
[06:40] <Molluck> EightEleven, the model # does not lie.
[06:40] <sunnypies_> anyone know what else i need to do to watch this air show live??? I have flash installed  Click to Watch Andrews AFB Air Show LIVE
[06:40] <sea> synaptic wouldnt install it right on feisty for me
[06:40] <sivik> sea: thats how i installed it
[06:40] <sea> apt-get did it no problems
[06:40] <rambo3> sivik, does java work ?
[06:40] <sivik> rambo3: i have no clue, let me pastebin the error
[06:41] <beni> help
[06:41] <beni> ?
[06:41] <rambo3> sivik, http://www.java.com/en/download/help/testvm.xml
[06:41] <khin> hi im getting some errors from synaptic im not sure i understand. im trying to install 'libpng12-dev
[06:41] <sivik> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21450/
[06:41] <jpjacobs> !helpme|beni
[06:41] <ubotu> beni: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[06:41] <beni> when i want to burn a dvd, the error message is input/output problem...
[06:42] <sivik> rambo3: it works there, but not at yahoo games
[06:42] <khin> and have 'libpng12-0' installed. but it says it cant install 'libpng12-dev' because it is dependent on 'libpng12-0'. but it says i have this installed!
[06:42] <sivik> the page that i pasted shows the error i'm getting
[06:42] <sivik> khin: trying to install enlightenment are we?
[06:42] <Molluck> i love ubuntu's scrollbar.  if you scroll and your cursor deviates too far away, it does not stop scrolling like windows xp's scrollbar. <3
[06:43] <sea> yeah molluck its awesome
[06:43] <rambo3> sivik, ok it might be some secuirty thing .  you have java console in firefox that you can check . but if it is java security i dont know how to solve it
[06:44] <rambo3> sivik, Edit -> error console
[06:44] <michup> hi, ive problem with performance after booting ubuntu edgy from CD
[06:44] <sea> are you sure you installed JRE 1.5
[06:44] <michup> some suggestion what may cause that sittuation?
[06:45] <truz_`24> Is there a good guide on compiling kernel modules in ubuntu?  I tried to compile a basic kernel module and keep getting errors and the like.
[06:45] <sivik> rambo3, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/21456/, thats what i get, and then i click on trust and that other page is what happens when i go
[06:45] <truz_`24> Apparently kernel interfaces are different?
[06:45] <delta9thc1> why you're using edgy? it's old! before anyone using breezy,right now edgy,mah...
[06:45] <EightEleven> Molluck: How do you usually adjust the brightness of your laptop?
[06:45] <Molluck> EightEleven, via windows xp.. using the radeon gamma adjuster.
[06:46] <sea> what? no one likes Feisty?
[06:46] <khin> anyway, basically im just trying to install gtk+. but when i try to run configure it says it needs updated versions of a bunch of stuff, and of that, what exists in synaptic is dependent on other stuff
[06:46] <sea> Feisty is the best evarrr
[06:46] <Molluck> EightEleven, having more control over colors is better than just setting the brightness output lower...
[06:46] <khin> is there some simpler way to do this
[06:46] <delta9thc1> i'm using feisty !
[06:47] <Molluck> EightEleven, perhaps i should submit my question to a forum and wait for a reply?
[06:47] <rambo3> sivik, i dont know , you might try to ask somone else or in #firefox on their irc server
[06:47] <sivik> rambo3: what is their server
[06:47] <beni> did anyone solve an input/output error problem while burning dvds?
[06:48] <sea> I have to wonder why fwcutter worked on feisty and not on Dapper, when i ran it on Dapper it said i had broadcom 4318, but Feisty and fwcutter says i have 4311 airforce
[06:48] <rambo3> i'dd guess  irc.mozilla.org
[06:48] <sea> my guess is that Yahoo detects you are using *nix
[06:49] <EightEleven> Molluck: Did you try rakeer's suggestion to type in terminal window: xgamma 1  ?
[06:49] <Molluck> Molluck, people are gonna have to start typing my name ... i just ignore text that isn't directed to me.
[06:50] <Molluck> EightEleven, so no, I did not try it because i did not see it.
[06:50] <EightEleven> Molluck: rakeer suggested to open a terminal and then type xgamma -gamma 2
[06:51] <Molluck> EightEleven, it worked, but i need to make it darker.
[06:52] <beni> i tried to burn a data dvd, but it says input/output error. what could be the problem?
[06:52] <EightEleven> Molluck: Okay, then try xgamma -gamma 0.5
[06:52] <Molluck> EightEleven, ooh nifty ^^
[06:52] <Molluck> EightEleven, it seems to be, the whites are too white and the darks are too dark
[06:52] <Quintin> beni, have you tried again with a different blank disc?
[06:53] <beni> yes
[06:53] <khin> actually, what i need is the gtk+ development files. so trying to install them off synaptic says i need (among other things) libcairo2-dev. this in turn needs, for one, libpng12-dev
[06:53] <nitrocks> how do i automatically mount another hard disk on boot?
[06:53] <beni> i also tried several burning programs
[06:53] <nitrocks> in 7.04
[06:53] <EightEleven> Molluck: Too bad rakeer is already offline, maybe he knows other nice tools too
[06:53] <jpjacobs> nitrocks, i guess it already does mount everything it finds
[06:54] <Molluck> EightEleven, well this is a hundred times more usable now that the gamma is less!
[06:54] <Molluck> EightEleven, thanks for the help :)
[06:54] <delta9thc1> do you have tried brasero also?
[06:54] <bubux> i need tabs in gedit to ident selected code instead of replacing all selected text with a tab.. please help me
[06:54] <delta9thc1> but i ever use k3b,is the best for me :-)
[06:55] <kendale> hello
[06:55] <ImBrian> bubux: apt-get install scite
[06:55] <EightEleven> Molluck: You're welcome
[06:55] <delta9thc1> i've sorry
[06:55] <kendale> hi i need som help with my wireless
[06:55] <Molluck> Is there a way that I can enable 3d capability in Ubuntu 7.04?
[06:55] <bubux> ImBrian:  thnx but i already have scite and i prefer gedit.. i would like to use TAB keys to ident in gedit
[06:56] <ImBrian> bubux: I see.  I don't know that it's possible in GEdit (been a while since I've used it).  If it's a simple one-time task and you have scite, I know it does it.
[06:56] <Gerro> Anyone about that is really good with webcams?
[06:56] <Henica> Hey guys. It seems that after watching a movie, my screen resolution has changed drasticly. Is there any way I can fix this without restarting? I've got too many files open and I don't want to lose them. :p
[06:57] <bubux> ImBrian: thank you for your help
[06:57] <Gerro> Henica: do xrandr -s heightxwidth or something
[06:57] <EightEleven> Molluck: My Radeon card was automatically working
[06:57] <sea> system/preferences/screen resolution ?
[06:57] <dhtechs> Henica:  system.preferences.screen resolution
[06:57] <Henica> I have a custome set resolution, as ubuntu doesn't like my video card.
[06:57] <Molluck> EightEleven, not here. i think it is because i am using a laptop.
[06:57] <Gerro> EightEleven: working or working working as in able to render 3d?
[06:58] <sea> my radeon worked too but i went ahead and installed the restricted driver
[06:58] <kendale> hi i need some help with my wireless on an acer 3000
[06:58] <jsd> good morning.  all my audio is coming out of the headphone jack and the pc speaker.  any way to shut the pc speaker up?  seems like the audio devices are the same in the sound control panel - there's no way to address just one.
[06:58] <sea> well it renders 3d witht he restricted drivers
[06:58] <ImBrian> jsd: which sound panel?
[06:58] <Gerro> sea: through mesa right?
[06:58] <Enselic_> jsd: sudo make install gnome-alsa-mixer
[06:58] <Enselic_> jsd: there you have a bunch of audio sliders and on/off buttons
[06:58] <Henica> Ehh. I'll just restart my PC.
[06:59] <EightEleven> Able to render 3D i think. Beryl was working and ufoai and xmoto also respond well
[06:59] <ImBrian> jsd: what Enselic_ said ;)
[06:59] <jsd> ok i'll try it
[06:59] <sea> i clicked 'manage restricted drivers' and there it was so i went ahead and installed it
[06:59] <EightEleven> And I'm also using a laptop
[06:59] <Gerro> Henica: wait
[06:59] <dyrne> jsd: i had a similar problem but dont remember what i changed in alsamixer
[06:59] <sea> Im on an HP dv5000 media center laptop
[06:59] <dhtechs> Henica:  system.preferences.screen resolution
[06:59] <Gerro> Henica: do ctrl alt f1 to get command prompt then do randr -s 1024x768 if you need root do sudo su then enter pass

[07:00] <kendale> hi i am a noob do i get in line for hel?
[07:00] <kendale> p
[07:00] <Gerro> jsd: don't forget to do ./configure and make before make install
[07:00] <PriceChild> kendale, Just ask your question and someone will answer if they know the answer :)
[07:00] <dhtechs> kendale: just ask
[07:00] <kendale> ok thanks
[07:01] <kendale> i have a broadcom wireless card and i screwd it up and it is not woring anymore
[07:01] <kneeki> Anyone know of a good torrent client other than BitTorrent (that came with my Ubuntu install)? I was unable to find uTorrent in the lists =(
[07:02] <ImBrianJ> kneeki: azarius (sp?) is popular - a java app IIRC
[07:02] <jsd> i installed it with synaptic and now i am golden.  thanks!
[07:02] <EightEleven> kendale: So it was working before?
[07:02] <Gerro> kendale: do ndiswrapper -l to list which driver its using and modprobe ndiswrapper to load driver up
[07:02] <kneeki> ImBrianJ, Thanks bud, I'll check into that. =)
[07:02] <kendale> can someone tell me what i need to how to set up my wireless i have tried the fourms and still no dice
[07:02] <kendale> yes
[07:02] <Svenstaro> kneeki, tried automatix's torrent client? I don't know what's it called but it supposedly pretty good. Automatix provides Azureus and some other Utorrent like.
[07:02] <kendale> it was working
[07:02] <ImBrianJ> http://azureus.sourceforge.net/
[07:03] <PriceChild> !automatix | Svenstaro kneeki
[07:03] <ubotu> Svenstaro kneeki: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:03] <dyrne> kneeki: deluge is much less resource intensive than az
[07:03] <dyrne> kneeki: even ktorrent
[07:03] <EightEleven> kendale: What did you do just before it stopped working?
[07:03] <Svenstaro> =(
[07:03] <chamunks> would someone know how to mount a cd image as if it were a regular cd in feisty?
[07:03] <ImBrianJ> kneeki: I shoudl preface that I'm not a torrent person.  What little I do, I use the cli torrent client
[07:03] <dyrne> chamunks: mount -o loop file.iso /directory
[07:04] <Svenstaro> Anyway, I meant deluge know that you mention it.
[07:04] <Smygis> !WorksForMe
[07:04] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[07:04] <ImBrianJ> but I know Azureus is popular
[07:04] <kneeki> Thanks guys, I'll look into all of those. =)
[07:04] <Znortfl> Hey ubuntu people, how do I unpack ".tar.Z" archives? Ark doesnt support it, apparently
[07:04] <ImBrianJ> there's another one I used in Gnome that was good (torrent).  Freeloader I think
[07:05] <ImBrianJ> kneeki: another good option (if you're Gnome): http://www.downloadsquad.com/2006/08/21/freeloader-bittorrent-client-for-gnome/
[07:05] <ImBrianJ> I stopped using it only because I switched to XFCE
[07:05] <dyrne> Zambezi: the Z is a unix compress i think so uncompress then tar xfv file.tar should work
[07:05] <mIgUeL_sAn> i've already installed ubuntu 7.04, does it have and apache and php installed in my system?
[07:05] <sea> how could i change to xfce
[07:05] <rambo3> mIgUeL_sAn,ask ubotu
[07:05] <kendale> eight eleven i sent you a prvate message
[07:05] <ImBrianJ> sea: apt-get install xubuntu-bas
[07:05] <sea> miguel open a terminal and type apache
[07:06] <kneeki> ImBrianJ, I am using gnome, thanks =)

[07:06] <sea> no but ive seen it

[07:06] <rambo3> !lamp | mIgUeL_sAn
[07:06] <dyrne> sea: ? xfce is gtk like gnome so the gnome themes will work. was that your question?
[07:06] <ubotu> mIgUeL_sAn: LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP.

[07:06] <ImBrianJ> sea: know that it'll be a pretty big install, it's an entire desktop environment
[07:06] <sea> mine says apache is not installed

[07:08] <kendale> ok

[07:08] <yimmmy> wine is not working i click on the app and it dosent do any thing
[07:08] <Molluck> I have a ATI RADEON XPRESS 200M IGP -- is that going to be a problem for enabling 3d capability?
[07:09] <kendale> where do i register

[07:09] <Sgm> does anyone know something about audio problems in feisty with an intel 82801g (ich7) chip?gnome and esound
[07:09] <mrclean> how do I find the version number?
[07:09] <CheshireViking> yimmy, for help with wine, you might be better asking in  #wine
[07:09] <ethereality> kendale: do you need to register your nick for IRC?
[07:09] <gaten> yimmmy: and make sure you are in the directory that the program is installed in
[07:09] <tanath> need help. since i upgraded to feisty my scanner doesn't work
[07:10] <Molluck> can somebody help me enable 3d capability with my laptop?
[07:10] <kendale> yes
[07:10] <Sgm> molluck have you Googled enough?
[07:10] <tanath> xsane says no devices available
[07:10] <ethereality> kendale: type /msg nickserv help register
[07:10] <ethereality> i think.
[07:10] <Molluck> Sgm, probably not :(
[07:10] <Quintin> Molluck, what laptop?  what gfx card?
[07:10] <EightEleven> kendale: http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#userregistration
[07:10] <Molluck> Quintin, it is a toshiba satellite laptop.  ATI RADEON XPRESS 200M IGP
[07:10] <Sgm> does anyone knows something about audio problems in feisty with an intel 82801g (ich7) chip?gnome and esound
[07:11] <ethereality> or that, except type 'register <password> <email address>' ... i'm not sure of the format, which is why i suggest messaging 'help register'
[07:11] <Quintin> Molluck, that card has drivers from ati that you can use.  do "apt-cache search xorg-video | grep fglrx"
[07:11] <tanath> anyone?
[07:11] <Molluck> Quintin, attempting now.
[07:11] <gaten> tanath: when you plug in the scanner, what does dmesg tell you
[07:11] <kendale> i will register and come back
[07:12] <EightEleven> kendale: You don't need to leave for that
[07:12] <tanath> gaten, well, it's a printer & scanner. prints ok, but has lost scanner functionality
[07:12] <kendale> i know i will be reading how to do it in the web i wont disconnect
[07:13] <hydan> how big is the default 7.04 iso download?
[07:13] <sivik> has anyone else having problems with games.yahoo.com and the java applet for firefox in fiesty
[07:13] <sivik> hydan: just under 750 mb
[07:13] <hydan> ooh
[07:13] <gaten> tanath: beyond checking to see if dmesg reports a problem, i dont know, ive never hooked a scanner up to linux before
[07:13] <hydan> thanks
[07:13] <EightEleven> good luck
[07:13] <Molluck> Quintin, it says "xorg-driver-fglrx - Video driver for ATI graphics accelerators"
[07:13] <khin> is there some reason why these development packages don't (apparently) have valid release packages? im trying to install libgtk2.0-dev and having issues
[07:13] <sea> can i enable repositories from the terminal?
[07:14] <sivik> sea: yes
[07:14] <dr_willis> sea,  you can edit the sources.list file  with an editor..so yes.
[07:14] <sivik> sea: go into your /etc/apt/sources.list file and add them there
[07:14] <sea> oh ok
[07:14] <sivik> dr_willis, can you help me with some java issues
[07:14] <dr_willis> !apt
[07:14] <Quintin> Molluck, yea, go figure.  install it :-P  then in /etc/X11/xorg.conf , change "ati" or "radeon" or whatever to "fglrx" under the Driver section , then do /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:14] <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)
[07:14] <sivik> !ati
[07:14] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:14] <Molluck> Quintin, how to install?
[07:14] <datrigg> anyone in here got SLI to work in ubuntu?
[07:15] <dr_willis> sivik,  proberly not. leaving for work in 10 min..  id have to say yuse 'java --version' to be sure you are using the actual SUN java - not the alternatives. for a starter however.
[07:15] <Quintin> Molluck, sudo apt-get install <package-name>
[07:15] <sea> dr_willis i had the same problem, it said java was installed but it wasnt or it was not JRE
[07:16] <jetroo> ive installed u6.10 on laptop and now dwnlding the updates (169 of them!) i have the 7.04 disc but it wont install cuz the x-server breaks or something. should i be able the upgrade to 7.04 after i update 6.10? or will it break after upgrade
[07:16] <sivik> Unrecognized option: --version
[07:16] <sivik> Could not create the Java virtual machine.
[07:16] <chamunks> will this command "mount -o loop file.iso /directory"  mount a cd image just the same as if it were burnt to a cd??
[07:16] <kendale> eighteleven am i register now
[07:16] <sivik> jetroo: u will have to fix the xserver after you install the newer version
[07:16] <Molluck> Quintin, I just checked synaptics for fglrx, it is marked green.
[07:16] <sea> jetroo  the CD wouldnt work right for me i had gotten the DVD of feisty and viola
[07:16] <dr_willis> ret -version then. (logicial eh?) :)
[07:16] <colbert> how do I burn an iso with a .mds file ???
[07:17] <sivik> dr_willis, i have 1.4.2-02
[07:17] <jetroo> how will i do that, i wont be connected to internet
[07:17] <dr_willis> colbert,  convert it to iso. but you will lose the special data/features that may be in the mds.
[07:17] <Quintin> Molluck, yea, well if you're a big pansy you can do it that way too, whatever.  just install it :P
[07:17] <dr_willis> java version "1.4.2"
[07:17] <dr_willis> gij (GNU libgcj) version 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu5)
[07:17] <Molluck> Quintin, it is already installed doofus.
[07:17] <dr_willis> seems that I am using the Gnu java. not the sun one - on this box.
[07:17] <sivik> jetroo: do something like dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and use the vesa driver until u can fix it
[07:18] <sivik> jetroo: but u can get on the net via CLI, its called lynx
[07:18] <colbert> dr_willis: i already have file.iso and file.mds, together.. how do I burn them?
[07:18] <tanath> gaten, i turned it off & on. here's dmesg output: http://paste.uni.cc/15611
[07:18] <khin> actually i was doing something stupid, never mind it worked
[07:18] <Gat0rvean> I'm trying to install a desktop theme, or in my mind, I want to change the window borders, default login screen and fonts and stuff, I've read the article on the Wiki, but when I try and download something, it tells me it's the wrong file type, can anyone help?
[07:18] <sivik> colbert; burn the iso in k3b via burn image
[07:18] <Molluck> Quintin, since it is already installed, doesn't that mean i already have it?
[07:18] <dr_willis> colbert,  k3b and other tools can burn .iso files. but if its a copy protected game cd. the game proberly wont work once burnt
[07:18] <aceoflobster> hi guys, if i do /etc/init.d/networks restart will that reload drivers or just the network settings?
[07:19] <Quintin> Molluck, yes, but it's not being used by X.  edit that conf file as I instructed you to do please
[07:19] <jetroo> i dont know any of this stuff, im linux beginner. but i have in built wifi on laptop. im afraid it wont work after i upgrade
[07:19] <Molluck> Quintin, roger
[07:19] <Yggdrasil> ljl are you in
[07:19] <Quintin> aceoflobster, that just starts and stops networking, it will not reload your drivers.  If you have a need to do that, you'd have to rmmod and then insmod them
[07:19] <zer> Whats the easiest method to watch use dvb-t?
[07:19] <aceoflobster> quintin: thanks
[07:20] <Amadeo> Anyone know why the Ubuntu installer is detecting my IDE drives as SCSI drives?
[07:20] <gordboy> anyone else think that the default feisty freetype library is deficient ? i made a new .deb drop-in for libfreetype6. i have proper rendering now. woohoo
[07:20] <Molluck> Quintin, it says I do not have the permissions necessary.
[07:21] <pteron> Hi! How to enable write on a automaticly mounted NTFS-partition?
[07:21] <Quintin> Molluck, right, you don't.  You have to be root.  So use sudo or gksu
[07:21] <itnas> hi all there, may anybody answer a question regarding terminal size when controlled from .bashrc?
[07:21] <Quintin> pteron, you'll need ntfs-3g or simialr.  If you want to share data between windows and linux, ext3 is a better solution
[07:21] <bspindler> I need help! you know the normal Ctrl-Alt-Backspace that restarts X ?  Mine got mapped to something else, I need to change it back, how can I?
[07:21] <Dame> Is it possible to install ubuntu 6.06 server on VirtualBox?
[07:21] <Quintin> bspindler, That's in /etc/X11/xorg.conf .  Saerch for "zap"
[07:21] <lbci_irc> /leave
[07:22] <bspindler> Quintin: k, one sec
[07:22] <Quintin> Dame, no idea what that is but it should be possible.  works with vmware or qemu or whatever
[07:22] <XBehave> is this channel at all linked to the ubuntu forums
[07:22] <tanath> need help. since i upgraded to feisty my scanner doesn't work. xsane says 'no devices available'. can anyone help?
[07:22] <bspindler> Quintin: pattern not found
[07:22] <Quintin> XBehave, no
[07:22] <Quintin> bspindler, man xorg.conf
[07:22] <bspindler> I thought it would be in gconf-editor but I can't find it
[07:23] <pteron> Quintin, linux is installed on a ext3-partition, but all my stuff is on a large ntfs-partition. There is no simple way to enable write?
[07:23] <Quintin> pteron, no.
[07:23] <Molluck> Quintin, it says it is already fglrx.
[07:23] <Dame> Quintin, it freeze after "booting kernel" message is displayed
[07:23] <XBehave> cant he just install ntfs-3g or a something like that
[07:23] <Quintin> Molluck, open a terminal, and type "glxinfo | grep rendering"
[07:23] <Wipster> how can I get windows to read ext3?
[07:23] <Molluck> Quintin, beneath "section "device""
[07:23] <Quintin> XBehave, he said "easy"
[07:24] <gordboy> pteron, Quintin : what's wrong with ntfs-3g ?
[07:24] <codecaine> how you change the port for remote desktop?
[07:24] <Quintin> Wipster, use the IFS driver for ext3.  maybe if you helped yourself on google you'd find it
[07:24] <Quintin> Wipster, with "ext3 windows" or a search similarly obscure and hard to guess.
[07:24] <Molluck> Quintin, "direct rendering: Yes"
[07:24] <Wipster> Quintin, yeh thanks man just found it
[07:24] <pteron> gordboy, nothing i havnt tried it. I justed wanted to hear if there was a simple way, but ill use ntfs-3g instead
[07:24] <XBehave> Wipster:  it can read ext2 with drivers i think google should be your friend, ext2 is ext3 without jouraling and so it will see ext3 drives just not journal changes
[07:25] <Quintin> Molluck, then you have 3d support.  try "glxgears"  does it run smoothly?  try the 3d screensavers.
[07:25] <gordboy> pteron, ntfs-3g is simple. a lot simpler than trying to configure ext2fsd from within windows
[07:25] <pteron> There is not problem using (reading/writing) on a ntfs partition with linux? like dataloss or stuff like that
[07:25] <Quintin> Wipster, np
[07:25] <daedra> HELP I have lost graphical display of my 7.04 Ubuntu desktop!
[07:25] <jetroo> if i try to reconfigure the xserver-xorg after upgrade will the vesa driver be available to me? in 7.04
[07:25] <pteron> gordboy, can i apt-get it?
[07:25] <Quintin> daedra, what did you change before that happened?
[07:25] <Quintin> jetroo, yes
[07:26] <Molluck> Quintin, oh no wonder!  the previous version of ubuntu enabled 3d screensavers by default.  they were off in ubuntu 7.04
[07:26] <gordboy> pteron, yes you can
[07:26] <daedra> Quintin: I ran sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:26] <pteron> gordboy, thx m8. Ill try
[07:26] <Quintin> Molluck, what 3d stuff are you trying to do exactly?  cause glxinfo says you have direct rendering... shouldn't be problems
[07:26] <tanath> need help. since i upgraded to feisty my scanner doesn't work. xsane says 'no devices available'
[07:26] <jetroo> ok, and if i select it. would i then type in restart gdm or something like that?
[07:26] <Molluck> Quintin, yes it runs very smoothly.  thanks for the help
[07:26] <Quintin> daedra, Ok, then what?  do you get a blank screen, or an error message?
[07:26] <DShepherd> I have an intergrated camera. Is there an app that I can use so that I capture pictures with my camera?
[07:26] <Quintin> Molluck, any time
[07:26] <XBehave> pteron: last time i used an ntfs partition was about a year ago and there were lots of bugs but it worked for me no coruption however some people had serious problems
[07:26] <jetroo> would that load the log in screen
[07:27] <Molluck> Quintin, well, I was unable to activate 3d chess... and that lead me to believe nothin worked 3d
[07:27] <Quintin> jetroo, /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:27] <Molluck> Quintin, silly ubuntu!!! hah
[07:27] <Quintin> Molluck, oh.
[07:27] <daedra> I get the graphical login manager, but once I enter my usrnm/passwd it only displays the mouse cursor
[07:27] <mikeX> hello, is there some configuration default that makes disks sleep after a while in ubuntu?
[07:27] <daedra> Quintin: I never get to the desktop :(
[07:27] <codecaine> anybody know how to change the port on remotedesktop?
[07:27] <jayson> hi people, i can install ubuntu booting from a iso in hd ?
[07:28] <daedra> Quintin: I'm currently managing in irssi :(
[07:28] <Quintin> daedra, what if you create antoher user account and try to log in?  have you tried rebooting??  Or, rather than rebooting, do a "sudo init 1" then hit ctrl-D to brin ghte system back to runlevle 2
[07:28] <pamonha> e awe blez
[07:28] <Quintin> daedra, irssi pwns

[07:28] <daedra> Quintin: yeah its useful in emergencies but since this is a new installation I have no scripts
[07:29] <daedra> Quintin: I will see how things look with a new user
[07:29] <Quintin> daedra, tried logging in as a different user?  or init 1 then ctrl D
[07:29] <jayson> hi people, i can install ubuntu booting from a iso in hd ?
[07:29] <mikeX> Quintin: i know what's used to do it, I just don't want it done automatically
[07:29] <gorski> i have the "Waiting for root file system" problem!!!
[07:29] <Quintin> daedra, the latter would probably fix it
[07:29] <mikeX> thanks DShepherd
[07:29] <daedra> Quintin: ok
[07:29] <tanath> need help. since i upgraded to feisty my scanner doesn't work. xsane says 'no devices available'

[07:33] <DShepherd> !sound | Molluck
[07:33] <ubotu> Molluck: 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
[07:33] <DShepherd> Molluck: that might help..

[07:33] <jason_> well how u do it then

[07:46] <jpjacobs> thehumanerror, i guess something ldap based ... but i don't really know anything on this topic
[07:46] <daedra> I don't think you get it...
[07:46] <Parmenion> just found it
[07:46] <DShepherd> michup: have you tried the alternate cd?
[07:46] <Parmenion> /usr/share/firefox :P
[07:46] <dyrne> michup: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation
[07:46] <michup> i think its probably because its an old computer 128 RAM old graphic integrated etc
[07:46] <daedra> my current xorg.conf is crap, I need the one on the livecd
[07:46] <jpjacobs> daedra, you are right, i don't get you. what are you trying?
[07:46] <Timmytom> DShepherd: Tried using xmms, but the menu I get when I press "open file" (aka the file browsing) is so hopeless in my eyes
[07:47] <daedra> just tell me how to search for it

[07:47] <DShepherd> Molluck: you back?
[07:47] <jpjacobs> right... the one from the livecd is probably in the compressed image of the livecd. the easiest way would be booting in the livecd, copy it over to the harddisk then

[07:51] <DShepherd> Molluck: ok.. i seemed to have found some people on the forums that have had similar problems..
[07:51] <michup> dyrne: and without downloading another CD is it possible to run basic installation CD in text mode and install system from there?
[07:51] <jpjacobs> Timmytom, what is that?
[07:51] <Molluck> DShepherd, I guess i should always search the forums :S
[07:51] <dyrne> michup: the livecd if that is what you have does not include the text installer.
[07:51] <michup> dyrne: this computer hanges after i click on installation icon on desktop
[07:51] <Molluck> DShepherd, any solutions?
[07:52] <DShepherd> Molluck: yes you should.. let me get the link
[07:52] <Timmytom> jpjacobs: File manager/browser for windows (Which again resembles Norton Commander)
[07:52] <dyrne> michup: the alternate or server cd might have better luck.
[07:52] <jpjacobs> michup, you could use debootstrap to make an install... there should be docs on the wiki for that
[07:52] <DShepherd> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=392350&highlight=toshiba  Molluck I am not if its going to work for you... but you can give it a try...

[07:52] <DShepherd> DShepherd: i need to run though.... bathroom emergency.. will come back lata to see how it went.. ok?
[07:53] <jpjacobs> gorski, try reinstalling, and stop repeating
[07:53] <nigro> jpjacobs: gqcam
[07:53] <lorenz_> leperkhanz, I don't have a link for you. but check if there is a readme file, it usually really easy to do
[07:53] <gorski> reinstalling isn't a solution.
[07:53] <leperkhanz> lorenz_:

[07:53] <thomas__> i have a question about how to get the mac address in C

[07:53] <thomas__> in which channel should i change ?
[07:53] <dm> hi people. I have sine issue with raid controller.
[07:53] <gorski> It is said that linux is stable
[07:53] <leperkhanz> lorenz_: OK, but I've never even considered it.  Hold my hand?
[07:54] <dm> in which channel should i change ?
[07:54] <nigro> jpjacobs: I can change the resolution, but I, can't fix this for others programs
[07:54] <jpjacobs> Timmytom, or emelfm (dunno if it is available for ubuntu though)
[07:54] <lorenz_> leperkhanz: I just tried it the first time a week ago - it worked without problems
[07:54] <nigro> Gerro: yes, an PC-Cam 350

[07:54] <Gerro> nigro: when I use gqcam it says segmentation fault
[07:54] <leperkhanz> lorenz_: Aight... gonna give it a shot.
[07:54] <gorski> i just changed the graphic card and now i cannot boot ubuntu
[07:54] <Gerro> nigro: the webcam light turns on though
[07:55] <jpjacobs> nigro, well, that's normal, a program should set the camera to whatever resolution it likes, and if it is a decent program, that shopuld be adjustable
[07:55] <thomas__> in which channel should I change when I want to know how to get the mac address in C ?
[07:55] <lorenz_> leperkhanz: check this http://www.linuxforums.org/forum/ubuntu-help/60462-how-compile.html

[08:03] <leperkhanz> It's on that page.
[08:04] <ikonia> leperkhanz: I'm asking you the name of the package
[08:04] <saigon> ion: u firtst have to reset root password with "sudo passwd root"
[08:04] <neverblue> leperkhanz, where, I do not see it
[08:04] <ikonia> ion: there is very little reason to set the root password
[08:04] <leperkhanz> Since it's the best plugin for Linux n64 emulation, I'll probably post a compiled version in the Ubuntu Forums when I'm done.
[08:04] <leperkhanz> soz....
[08:04] <leperkhanz> http://www.emutalk.net/showthread.php?t=37658&page=9
[08:04] <ikonia> leperkhanz: posting a compiled version is not much use to anyone - more so when you don't really understand what your doing
[08:04] <leperkhanz> It was one page previous.l
[08:05] <ikonia> leperkhanz: tell me the name of the package
[08:05] <Frogzoo> anybody noticed that emacs run in a terminal doesn't respect the ansi escapes? is there a fix?

[08:06] <gunnar> Q:  I am trying to setup selinux and when I run update-grub it overwrites my /boot/grub/menu.lst with the old version of the file.  Any Ideas?
[08:07] <ikonia> leperkhanz: if you want help - what is the name of the package
[08:07] <freeza> jetroo: did you download the livecd?
[08:07] <neverblue> ikonia, in case you missed it
[08:07] <neverblue> i was helping him
[08:07] <maddog39> i was searching google pantents and found something that FOSS might be infringing on
[08:07] <maddog39> its a microsoft patent
[08:07] <jetroo> yes
[08:07] <ikonia> leperkhanz: are you able to tell me the name and version of the package
[08:07] <ikonia> neverI did miss it, I'm lagging a bit
[08:07] <leperkhanz> glide64-wonder+-linux-v11.tgz
[08:07] <neverblue> glide64-wonder+-linux-v11.tgz
[08:07] <ikonia> neverblue: I did miss it, I'm lagging a bit for some reason
[08:07] <freeza> jetroo: and the gui loads fine when loading the livecd?
[08:07] <jetroo> i was going to download it again. i thought there might be a newer iso on the swensite, with a fix included
[08:07] <aos> bonsoir
[08:07] <ikonia> neverblue: thank you
[08:08] <neverblue> ikonia, you asked him for it about 5 tiems :)
[08:08] <kenthomson> ikonia: are you talking to me about that multiverse source repo error? What do i need to do?
[08:08] <higltypig> I have a cd with the .iso on but can't get terminal to see the file
[08:08] <jetroo> website**
[08:08] <neverblue> that might be your lag-reason ;)
[08:08] <ikonia> neverblue: I was lagging, he just kept posting a link
[08:08] <jetroo> no it dosent
[08:08] <leperkhanz> I don't really know the "name of it".
[08:08] <jetroo> it dosent even load into the live cd
[08:08] <ikonia> kenthomson: if you think you have a real bug, log it to the ubuntu support group
[08:08] <jetroo> i didnt have this problem with 6.06 or 6.10
[08:08] <swatF1RESTORM> can anyone help me with getting me ATI radeon mobility 9700 m10 setup? Tried most of what's on the forum and still no luck
[08:08] <gil> hello
[08:08] <jetroo> those live cds work perfectly
[08:09] <freeza> jetroo: first thing i would try is redownloading the livecd at the ubuntu site to see if it works
[08:09] <leperkhanz> It's a modification of the Glide Wonder + plugin that allows video emulation of the Nintendo 64, and over OpenGL with the Hactarux glide wrapper.
[08:09] <gil> I got some questions regarding dual monitor display
[08:09] <ikonia> gil: go for it
[08:09] <Frogzoo> swatF1RESTORM: feisty?
[08:09] <gil> ikonia: thanks
[08:09] <freeza> jetroo: what are the specs of your laptop? video card, wireless, cpu
[08:09] <swatF1RESTORM> Frogzoo: yes
[08:10] <jetroo> dell 6400 / ati x1300
[08:10] <Frogzoo> swatF1RESTORM: you run the restricted driver manager?
[08:10] <jetroo> intel wifi
[08:10] <dru> where do i find themes?
[08:10] <gil> in my laptop bios i have selected that the display be directed automatically. Thus if crt is connected the laptop lcd should not be on......
[08:10] <dru> and how do i install them
[08:10] <ikonia> gil: that seems reasonable
[08:10] <ikonia> dru: gnome-look.org
[08:10] <dru> what category?
[08:10] <gil> right but ubuntu forces the monitor on
[08:10] <ikonia> dru: what ever one you want
[08:10] <pimuri> erm .. after installing ubuntu it reboots .. then grub says "grubstage 1.5       grub loading, please wait...     Error 22"  ("22 : "Must load Multiboot kernel before modules"
[08:10] <pimuri> This error is returned if the module load command is used before loading a Multiboot kernel. It only makes sense in this case anyway, as GRUB has no idea how to communicate the presence of location of such modules to a non-Multiboot-aware kernel.", from some homepage)  what should I do?   the computer is kinda old (end of 90ties ...     I installed ubuntu on scsi disk which is connected to a scsi controller)
[08:10] <gil> i cant explain it
[08:10] <swatF1RESTORM> Frogzoo: yes I installed the restricted driver manager
[08:11] <dru> but then how do i install it?
[08:11] <jetroo> it has intel core duo processor
[08:11] <dru> i tryed before, it said wrong file type
[08:11] <ikonia> gil: that bios setting is normally which is the primary monitor
[08:11] <ikonia> dru: instructions on the gnome site
[08:11] <gil> right
[08:11] <ikonia> gil: use the function key and an F key to disable the laptop lcd display
[08:11] <leperkhanz> Any luck on that glide plugin?
[08:11] <freeza> jetroo: do you get any kernel panics when loading the live cd? also use safe mode option when booting live cd, that way you use vesa
[08:11] <Frogzoo> swatF1RESTORM: now run it - does it pick up the ati ?
[08:11] <dru> it has different types of themes .. like xxxms
[08:11] <jetroo> i was using the 6.10 live cd, ive just installeed it
[08:12] <dru> i dont get it
[08:12] <jetroo> the screen goes black for a while
[08:12] <ikonia> dru: you download hte theme for the component you want
[08:12] <dru> what do u mean
[08:12] <ikonia> leperkhanz: I'm looking at it
[08:12] <jetroo> then i get a message saying something wrong with the x server
[08:12] <ikonia> dru: if you want an xmms theme - you download an xmms theme and install it through xmms
[08:12] <jetroo> this is just tryingt o run live cd
[08:12] <freeza> jetroo: ok boot up the livecd using safe mode option
[08:12] <dru> i dont know what xmms is
[08:13] <swatF1RESTORM> Frogzoo: yes. when i bring up the restricted drivers windows there is a check box that is enabled (enabled = checked) and status says it's in use
[08:13] <ikonia> dru: a media player
[08:13] <dru> i just got linux .. could you explain to me more?
[08:13] <Megaqwerty> Does anyone know of a program like sub-etha edit for linux?
[08:13] <leperkhanz> ikonia: sweet.
[08:13] <gunnar> Q:  I am trying to setup selinux and when I run update-grub it overwrites my /boot/grub/menu.lst with the old version of the file.  Any Ideas?

[08:13] <ikonia> dru: read the help.ubuntu.com docs in the desktop themes section
[08:13] <ikonia> leperkhanz: no need for that
[08:13] <dru> how do i get a theme for the whole computer
[08:13] <jpjacobs> Cyrus25801, what is an mkv file? (use file ;))
[08:13] <ikonia> Paddy_EIRE: why would a built in mike need bluetooth ?
[08:13] <ikonia> dru: read the forum
[08:14] <yeniklasor> !anyone
[08:14] <ubotu> A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[08:14] <Paddy_EIRE> ikonia, re read the question
[08:14] <Frogzoo> swatF1RESTORM: glxinfo |grep vendor
[08:14] <freeza> jetroo: that way we can see if the problem is your video card or the motherboard and they way it loads the video
[08:14] <ikonia> Paddy_EIRE: apologies "and" bluetooth
[08:14] <gil> ikonia: i cannot seem to use the function key to turn of the lCD
[08:14] <jetroo> ok. what will happen then after i configure for vesa. how will i get to gnome login screen
[08:14] <gil> it does not recognize it
[08:14] <Paddy_EIRE> ikonia, any ideas
[08:14] <ikonia> gil: check the manual as thats not normally a software setting
[08:14] <ikonia> Paddy_EIRE: unmute it in sound mixer
[08:14] <Cyrus25801> Well the one that I have is a anime series with 2 audio streams and 2 subtitles
[08:15] <freeza> jetroo: vesa is generic video
[08:15] <Cyrus25801> jpjacobs:  Well the one that I have is a anime series with 2 audio streams and 2 subtitles
[08:15] <neverblue> how do you mark a dir you would like to move back to, once you have gone to another area in your f/s ?

[08:16] <Frogzoo> swatF1RESTORM: the mesa is the vga driver
[08:16] <ikonia> leperkhanz: make -f Makefile
[08:16] <Paddy_EIRE> ikonia, In fact is there a ubuntu laptop wiki specific to getting this kind of thing to work, yeah unmute I know this although for instance in windows live messenger for win I hold F2 then speak what would ubuntu messenger clients use
[08:16] <Cyrus25801> jpjacobs: well have reied that but it keeps looking for codec's. It uses Matroska codecs which I have installed
[08:16] <ikonia> Paddy_EIRE: thats a good question, not sure
[08:16] <neverblue> can you navigate with File Roller?
[08:17] <shatrat> Cyrus25801, matroska is a container, it could be any codec pretty much
[08:17] <leperkhanz> ikonia: Thanks, tryin' now!
