[12:01] <PriceChild> stefg, hmm grrr....
[12:01] <habeeb> riaal: it will also generate an output file which is probably useless to you, tho..
[12:01] <habeeb> PriceChild: told you..
[12:01] <habeeb> PriceChild: nohup is the way to go.
[12:01] <PriceChild> :)

[12:02] <wanderingII> anyone know where you can get graphics to use in applications that you dont need to pay for
[12:02] <bobbyd> hi
[12:02] <Pawba> Wanderer: www.turbosquid.com
[12:02] <troy_> oh, i don't have build-essential installed
[12:02] <Traveler> does the can't acces tty problem affect the alterante cd too?
[12:02] <troy_> mabey that will fix pthreads
[12:02] <habeeb> Pawba: misfire :P
[12:03] <Pawba> wanderingII: www.turbosquid.com
[12:03] <habeeb> Good job, son.

[12:03] <blackjackel> I want to run a command at login to ubuntu, how do i do this?
[12:03] <antitab> anyone? dd clone? <:3c
[12:03] <antitab> something about forensics
[12:03] <motin> I keep getting "[: 204: -z: unexpected operator" from a post install script (http://pastebin.ca/520311) - how do I solve / work around this?
[12:03] <bobbyd> can anyone tell me how to disable llibata and use the old ide driver for my dell inspiron with the Intel 82801GBM/GHM chipset?
[12:04] <zamboni> question I upgraded to a new kernel but grub doesent seem to  recognize it..is in fact in the /boot dir and a grub menu choice but the file is not found  error 15 message pops up
[12:04] <bobbyd> dvd performance is ass :/
[12:04] <zamboni> any clues ppinters
[12:04] <wanderingII> thanks, but does it have graphics like user icons or computer icons that could be used for buttons?
[12:04] <blackjackel> This seems like a very simple question, something very simple to do, why is nobody answering it?
[12:04] <habeeb> blackjackel: I know that if it's a graphical app you can add it to your Status -> Preferences -> Sessions -> Startup
[12:05] <blackjackel> habeeb: no, its a terminal command that requires sudo
[12:05] <garryFre> On the wirelss not working in latest ubuntu check this out http://ubuntulinuxtipstricks.blogspot.com/2007/04/fixed-feistys-slow-boot-bug.html
[12:05] <habeeb> blackjackel: but I'm not sure about a terminal command for _ubuntu_. let me check it.

[12:05] <spiraldark> Hey really fast, I had a rtf file on a mac, and moved it to linux (it was in japanese) and now when Itryview it it comes out as split characters (it's splitting the unicode into ascii I think)
[12:05] <habeeb> blackjackel: it requires sudo? hm...
[12:05] <bobbyd> blackjackel: you mean at login to the graphical desktop, or from the console?
[12:05] <FlimFlamMan> does this animate for anyone?  http://www.linux.com/blob.pl?id=a1199f3024b0c7e2de6a3ade5019c494
[12:05] <asdf_> can someone help me out -- I forget the name of a console package, it's extremely customizable, one word
[12:05] <habeeb> blackjackel: if it requires sudo you will have to write your password everytime except if you add a special rule which is not really safe.
[12:05] <blackjackel> bobbyd, the command is "sudo rovclock -c 390 -m 370" it is to overclock my graphicscards to those memory and core clocks
[12:06] <Pawba> asdf_: ubuntu ?
[12:06] <Arctic_Blue> hi there! I have a question : I dont want my hard-drives to appear on desktop, what can I do?
[12:06] <asdf_> Pawba: it's just a gnome package, not specific to ubuntu
[12:06] <Traveler> Does the tty error affect the alternate CD?
[12:06] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: there is a setting in gconf
[12:06] <habeeb> Arctic_Blue: KDE or GNOME?
[12:06] <Pawba> asdf_: beryl, compiz?
[12:06] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: oh.. sorry.. I assumed gnome
[12:06] <asdf_> pawba, neither -- it's just an alternate to gnome-terminal
[12:06] <habeeb> Slart: it's probably GNOME anyway.
[12:06] <Arctic_Blue> i think gnome..
[12:07] <Pawba> asdf_: Eterm, Gterm, Xterm ?
[12:07] <habeeb> Slart: assist the gentleman, I have no idea about GNOME :3
[12:07] <Arctic_Blue> Im kind of new for ubunutu..
[12:07] <Slart> hehe
[12:07] <Juan> why is the update manager showing four 23 kb updates when it says 8 updates and over 40mb in size?
[12:07] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: ok.. there are probably more than one way of doing this..
[12:07] <zamboni> Im brand new ubuntu
[12:07] <Pawba> Juan: You have to start somewhere.
[12:07] <zamboni> so where is a good grub tutorial?
[12:07] <zamboni> please
[12:07] <noobsauce> did you guys hear the rumor about microsoft and midnight?
[12:08] <Traveler> DOES THE TTY ERROR AFFECT THE ALTERNAT CD?
[12:08] <asdf_> pawba, no, none of those
[12:08] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: you'll be needing a tool called gconf-editor.. try running "gconf-editor" in a terminal
[12:08] <narcissist> zamboni: http://users.bigpond.net.au/hermanzone/p15.htm#cli

[12:09] <Arctic_Blue> Slart : thank you!
[12:09] <antitab> I guess I'll try to ask again ~_~
[12:09] <dcordes> what is the module uhci_hcd for?
[12:09] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: huh? you found it?
[12:09] <antitab> anyone know the name of the dd clone that displays progress?
[12:09] <blackjackel> habeeb, nobody uses my computer, so its ok to use this special rule
[12:09] <wastedfluid> Anyone familiar with re-partitioning your swap?  I did it, and it's no longer "on" - it's listed in fstab... and I can't hibernate.  swapon-a retrns "invalid arguement" - an ideas?
[12:09] <Juan> Pawba: no. this are the kernel updates, and it shows them as 23kb each
[12:09] <neildarlow> Juan, the other 4 are dependency packages
[12:09] <Arctic_Blue> Slart: nope.I'll try..
[12:09] <mtha> hi, does anyone know how to execute two commands at once from a BASH shell?
[12:09] <mtha> cheers
[12:09] <Juan> so the update isnt broken or anything?
[12:09] <habeeb> blackjackel: to tell you the truth I don't know where and how to enable the sudo rules. Could you wait a moment?
[12:09] <narcissist> i just installed ubuntu in my only drive. rebooted after installation and it stops. grub error 21. gemetry( + tab doesn't show any hdd:s
[12:09] <antitab> mtha: put an && in between them
[12:09] <narcissist> what's wrong?
[12:10] <blackjackel> habeeb, sure
[12:10] <zamboni> yep &&
[12:10] <neildarlow> Juan, if you perform the update you'll see 8 packages are installed
[12:10] <habeeb> that's not at once..
[12:10] <habeeb> it's one after another..
[12:10] <mtha> antitab, i have tried it but it doesn't work
[12:10] <habeeb> but well, that's probably what he means :P
[12:10] <antitab> :?
[12:10] <Armageddon00> how do i mount a windows (FAT32 i think) formated floppy, mount /dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy just hangs and i dont hear the floppy spining
[12:10] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: ok.. look around.. somewhere in there is a setting to hide or not show the drives
[12:10] <Pawba> Armageddon00: floppies are fat12
[12:10] <Juan> k, ill run it
[12:10] <Krazy> I did It!, I  finally got grub working again. but i still don't have a Windows only machine. I do I completly get rid of ubuntu and Grug
[12:10] <mtha> antitab, i want them to be executed both at once
[12:11] <zamboni> Krazy A sad day
[12:11] <ikaros-anarxikos> greetings everyone
[12:11] <antitab> open a new terminal? :|
[12:11] <habeeb> ikaros-anarxikos: greetings
[12:11] <troy_> /usr/include/pthread.h:285: error: conflicting types for pthread_t
[12:11] <troy_> /usr/include/bits/pthreadtypes.h:36: error: previous declaration of pthread_t was here
[12:11] <troy_> what does this mean?
[12:11] <Krazy> i know, but i want to get a compatible network adapter before i get deep into ubuntu
[12:11] <asdf_> any one know the name of a customizable terminal application for gnome -- its name is slipping my mind
[12:11] <dcordes> I'm looking for a very small application with very few depencies which is able to test spcaxx webcams
[12:11] <Pawba> Krazy: www.ubnt.com
[12:12] <ikaros-anarxikos> this is my first time chatting in the #ubuntu channel, i just wanted to ask ye wise Linux gods if anyone else had a problem with the recent kernel update
[12:12] <Armageddon00> Pawba: Well that really doesn't help, do you know why the mount command would just hang on me?
[12:12] <garryFre> I'm reading a lot of chatter about slow fiesty booting in up to 10 minutes, mine takes about an hour to 90 minutes, I beat the record, do I get a donut for this?  :)
[12:12] <troy_> mine boots in 30 seconds..
[12:12] <Pawba> Armageddon00: Floppy disk is plugged in backwards?
[12:12] <troy_> but i'm running realtime kernel :)
[12:12] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: you're looking for settings for "Nautilus".. it has a desktop subfolder where there are keys like "volumes_visible", "trash_visible" etc
[12:12] <Armageddon00> Pawba: Negative.
[12:12] <garryFre> yeah, mine booted in about 40 seconds, not bad, before teh latest patch
[12:12] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: it's in the app-folder
[12:12] <garryFre> hehe
[12:12] <Pawba> Armageddon00: fsck /dev/fd0
[12:13] <troy_> this is on 1.4ghz though
[12:13] <Julie45> what the command to switch/directive that I used with chmod to recurse all subdirectories to set the permissions on all files/folder in the current folder and all of it's subfolders?
[12:13] <garryFre> Hey, how bout a cheese donut so I can have it with my whine. :)
[12:13] <antitab> oi, this is really frustrating
[12:13] <Slart> troy_: big difference with the realtime kernel? or just at boot up
[12:13] <nickrud> Julie45, -R
[12:13] <Julie45> I thought it was chmod 755 -R but I don't think it worked
[12:13] <Armageddon00> Pawba: The check never finishes, it hangs like everything else.  I'm thinking my drive must be screwy
[12:13] <troy_> big difference all over
[12:13] <troy_> 3ms response
[12:13] <troy_> :D
[12:14] <ikaros-anarxikos> alright thanks anyway
[12:14] <victory747> Hi, I just upgraded feisty to 2.6.20-16.  Previously (2.6.20-15 and earlier) my IDE hard drive always showed up as /dev/sda.  Now, suddenly with this new kernel it shows up as /dev/hda.  Is this a known problem?
[12:14] <garryFre> just at boot up, yet this same kernel version works on LTS, when I restored to that.
[12:14] <Julie45> nickrud yesterday when I did that all of my folders in that folder were gone after I typed it
[12:14] <Armageddon00> Pawba: its the dell drive that came with the computer before i but linux on so i'd assume its f'ed up somehow
[12:14] <Slart> troy_: is it the low-latency kernel or something else?
[12:14] <troy_> victory747: no that is a new thing in the kernel
[12:14] <hugh_> Does anyone know of any widgets that report all your computers stats?
[12:14] <troy_> Slart: better then low latency, its realtime
[12:14] <troy_> lookup "Realtime ubuntu " in google
[12:14] <nickrud> Julie45, no, no, chmod -R 755 will not remove files ; rm -r does
[12:14] <Slart> troy_: I will.. thanks
[12:15] <Pawba> troy_: QNX4Life
[12:15] <habeeb> blackjackel: dammit can't find that thread >:
[12:15] <nickrud> Julie45, meeting time here
[12:15] <stefg> !conky | hugh_
[12:15] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about conky - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:15] <blackjackel> habeeb, its cool, thanks for trying
[12:15] <stefg> !info conky | hugh_
[12:15] <ubotu> hugh_: conky: highly configurable system monitor for X based on torsmo. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.4.5-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 123 kB, installed size 416 kB
[12:15] <victory747> troy_:  I don't know.  What do you mean?
[12:15] <hugh_> thanks
[12:15] <garryFre> Well, I know that thte /dev/sda is wrong. However, when I tried to do a fresh feisty or is that fiesty fresh install, all drives were listed as /dev/sdx
[12:15] <killown> hinesd, anyone can help me??.... I have a problem! when I run script for iptables protect my system after I restart gdm it not works gnome again then I do iptables -F then it works fine I need add any rule for gnome works with my script iptables?
[12:15] <habeeb> blackjackel: sorry, but if you search in google for /etc/sudoers , read the google manual , and ask more here/forums, you will get your answer. Sorry , again.
[12:16] <garryFre> then it wrote over my windows drive .... Oops!
[12:16] <Julie45> nickrud, I swear I chmod'ed
[12:16] <Arctic_Blue> Slart:I've found gconf-editor in add/remove tool but it says your chipset(i386) does not support...Is there another way for removing hardrive icons from my desktop?
[12:16] <garryFre> the /dev/hdd was not the fourth physical drive, but the # of the drive as listed in bios ordering.
[12:16] <Slart> troy_: are there any cons with using the realtime kernel?
[12:16] <vladuz976> how can i change my PKG_CONFIG_PATH ?
[12:17] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: huh? that sounds weird.. what happens if you run "sudo apt-get install gconf-editor" in a terminal?
[12:17] <habeeb> Arctic_Blue: https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/2625
[12:17] <Slart> !nfo gconf-editor
[12:17] <Slart> !info gconf-editor

[12:17] <habeeb> Arctic_Blue: aw sorry. you don't have the gconf editor.
[12:17] <victory747> garryFre: Yes, but you shouldn't really change it abruptly can you?
[12:18] <mtha> hi, can anyone tell me how to execute two programs today at once in a shell?
[12:18] <habeeb> mtha: when you say at once, you mean one after another?
[12:18] <mtha> habeeb, no i mean concurrent, like simultaneous
[12:18] <jvolkman> mtha, launch them in the background by appending & to the end of the command line
[12:18] <Julie45> nickrud if I type chmod 777 -R in the current folder I get the message "chmod: missing operand after 777
[12:19] <abo> mtha, what do you mean today?
[12:19] <garryFre> victory747 if you mean the version of ubuntu, I have a backup and restore, and this problem only showed when I applied updates saturday
[12:19] <killown> hinesd, anyone can help me??.... I have a problem! when I run script for iptables protect my system after I restart gdm it not works gnome again then I do iptables -F then it works fine I need add any rule for gnome works with my script iptables?
[12:19] <n2diy> mtha: program one &, then you'll have the prompt back, and can execute the second program
[12:19] <habeeb> mtha: why would you want to run two processes simultaneously?
[12:19] <garryFre> So we can walk and chew gum same time.
[12:19] <habeeb> garryFre: complex :o
[12:19] <n2diy> mtha: or, just open a second terminal.
[12:19] <victory747> garryFre: I'm not sure when the update happened, but it still shows /dev/sda with the previous kernel
[12:19] <garryFre> Sorry, the horror of losing a hard drive makes my humor overactive.
[12:20] <mtha> habeeb, i am making a script which turns on beryl when the script is executed and it does not execute until beryl is finished (which isn't) which means that i don't have any borders :(
[12:20] <habeeb> :P
[12:20] <garryFre> victory747 oh ok, I see, yeah, it sounds like it was a bug and it got fixed.
[12:20] <habeeb> mtha: I fail to see the need of executing to programs at the same time , there.
[12:20] <victory747> garryFre: It was fixed?  When?
[12:20] <victory747> it's definitlye a bug
[12:20] <mtha> habeeb, so what do you recommend
[12:21] <killown> hi, anyone can help me??.... I have a problem! when I run script for iptables protect my system after I restart gdm it not works gnome again then I do iptables -F then it works fine I need add any rule for gnome works with my script iptables?
[12:21] <habeeb> mtha: How do you plan on coding "until beryl is finished"?
[12:21] <garryFre> victory747 I dunno, I'm guessing it's fixed because an ide should never be referred to as sdanything but as hdx
[12:21] <habeeb> mtha: you will kill beryl yourself?
[12:21] <garryFre> Psychic C++
[12:22] <garryFre> or Psychicperl
[12:22] <mtha> habeeb, i have no idea, can you help me out there? this is my first stint as a programmer ever and i haven't learnt a language :S
[12:22] <purpzey> mtha: Have you tried to solve the beryl problem?
[12:22] <victory747> garryFre: Well, I would agree, but it's been that way since I installed feisty beta.  I thought it was a new interface in the kernel to show them all as scsi interface
[12:22] <killown> hi, anyone can help me??.... I have a problem! when I run script for iptables protect my system after I restart gdm it not works gnome again then I do iptables -F then it works fine I need add any rule for gnome works with my script iptables?
[12:22] <habeeb> mtha: first of all, I fail in programming, but that's not really tough. But I don't understand what you mean by "until beryl is finished". Beryl is in a countdown in your system ? :P
[12:23] <victory747> garryFre:  I hate to seee things change on people mid-stream - not good for newbies
[12:23] <mtha> habeeb, i just want to enable beryl and emerald on my system that's it
[12:23] <Arctic_Blue> habeeb and Slart:Thanks for your support.I've figured it out.I have already got gconf but I didnt knew it :)
[12:23] <Slart> Arctic_Blue: ah.. that sounds more reasonable =)
[12:23] <habeeb> mtha: aw... then just do: beryl && emerald .. I think that will do it.
[12:23] <purpzey> mtha: So install it and run the command?
[12:23] <habeeb> Arctic_Blue: No problem, sir.
[12:23] <mtha> habeeb, let me try
[12:24] <guycook> Will my Feisty 7.04 in 64bit ever 'see' my microphone, I"ve honestly got tired of trying and am guessing I'm not alone in the 'mic quest' with ubuntu ??
[12:24] <habeeb> mtha: kill your existing beryl/emerald if it's running
[12:24] <garryFre> yep, and it seems the image files don't have the fix for when I tried installing feisty from a cd I made with the latest iso image, it listed all my drives as /sda ... /sdd
[12:24] <mtha> habeeb, cheers it works!!!
[12:24] <garryFre> oops mt
[12:24] <garryFre> victory747 and then that's when it ate wondows
[12:24] <Ta1> my mailto: is broken.. if I click on an email link in my browser it doesn't bring up Evolution anymore.. where do I go to fix it?
[12:25] <habeeb> mtha: hehe... not that tough, was it? remember: using && between two commands will execute the second only if the first is succesfull. if you use ; between two commands it will execute both no matter what happens to the first.
[12:25] <purpzey> victory747: I am just following your discussion....Is there some update I need to be aware of and stay away from?
[12:25] <garryFre> maybe try reinstalling evolution via synaptek
[12:27] <desire> !pastebin
[12:27] <Ta1>  if I click on an email(mailto:) link in my browser it doesn't bring up Evolution anymore.. where do I go to fix it?

[12:28] <eantonoff> jrib, thanks
[12:28] <geforce> .
[12:29] <purpzey> victory747: Not going to lie...what's UUID?
[12:29] <garryFre> Universe is stuff that is written for ubuntu but may be unnoffical, multiverse has stuff written for not just ubuntu and is more risky than universe as its not necessarily something that works with ubuntu
[12:29] <Ta1> Anybody know anything about BlueLava?
[12:29] <garryFre> habeeb I didn't have a drop or crom of drink or drug, just tired from restoring my system

[12:31] <jrib> garryFre: that's not really correct.  multiverse has nonfree stuff and universe has free stuff that isn't in main

[12:35] <garryFre> Hmmm, I'm sure getting sick of doing /say usrname message and having it show up on the main chat. Grrr!! I'm sober, so WTH is it with me?
[12:36] <Flannel> garryFre: try /query username stuff
[12:36] <linux_kid> Recently, the sound on my Compaq V5204 stopped operating.  After checking the live CD, i found I was using the correct drivers.  Is there a fix to this problem.
[12:36] <Ta1> habeeb: thanks that worked..
[12:37] <Flannel> garryFre: also note, however, that as an unregistered user, you can't query on freenode.
[12:37] <habeeb> Ta1: no problem.
[12:37] <habeeb> Okay... Goodnight, gentlemen.
[12:37] <habeeb> See you tomorrow.
[12:37] <garryFre> Flannel yep, that seems to be it
[12:38] <victory747> purpzey: if you look in /etc/fstab by default it will not use /dev/sda1 or /dev/hda1 (the device node names) but use UUID instead.
[12:39] <garryFre> jrib nm, you are correct. Had to read it through.
[12:39] <gleaner> hi
[12:39] <gleaner> Im puzzled about grub

[12:41] <garryFre> I'm not too clear about grub drive terminology eithere, if I had two sata and two ide drives and an ide cdrom/dvd device, which shows first. I prefer /dev/sda and /dev/hda to hd0 as I can tell right away what is what.
[12:41] <th_> gleaner, are you sure the kernel and initrd names in menu.lst are exactly right?
[12:41] <Ta1> Any idea what would cause wireless to disconnect after 10min or so, then the only way to get it restarted is to reboot?
[12:41] <gleaner> looks right  to me
[12:42] <nj786> hey AUDACITY is giving me problems can anybody help me?
[12:42] <garryFre> etihere=term used by people who tend to hit between keys.
[12:42] <gleaner> Ill double check

[12:42] <gleaner> ;)
[12:42] <th_> gleaner, because the updater did it ;)
[12:42] <gleaner> lol
[12:42] <gleaner> right

[12:44] <Capso> Any of you guys tried Metisse?
[12:44] <tjl30> does anyone know how I can change the name of my slave drive? Right now it is called /media/Extra_ but before it was /media/hd2 which is where my music player db thinks it is

[12:52] <n2diy> nj786: with synaptic
[12:52] <sacater> abo: is it one of those funny ones, where you plug it in when the camera is turned off, then turn it on after its been plugged in, to 'wake it up' as it were
[12:53] <garryFre> shouldnt that be <br>
[12:53] <dakira> does anyone know where ekiga saves its settings?
[12:53] <nj786> tririum, audacity becuase the one that linux provides you is giving me problems
[12:53] <nj786> tritium
[12:54] <_Matilda_> Might be why it doesn't work i guess
[12:54] <sacater> dakira: maybe a hidden folder in your home area, .ekiga?
[12:54] <_Matilda_> :)
[12:54] <tritium> nj786: linux?
[12:54] <nj786> tritium, yes they provide audacity in add/remove section
[12:54] <tritium> nj786: you mean ubuntu?
[12:55] <gleaner> so how can I run grub to be sure it will see the updated kernel?
[12:55] <nj786> tritium, ai msorry yes unbuntu
[12:55] <dakira> sacater: nope.. i checked that.. can't find any directory.. there is something in gconf, but deleting that doesn't delete all the settings
[12:55] <JammasterJay>  I have a 40 gig hard drive and have to install windows Xp but i also want ubuntu...which version is best?...dapper / feisty? And is a 40 gig drive enough for a dual boot setup?
[12:55] <PriceChild> gleaner, whenever you install a kernel grub updates
[12:55] <nj786>  tritium, yes unbuntu
[12:55] <abo> sacater, I didn't did it both ways, plug and turn on and turn on and plug... I can see in the system process monitors that there is an impulse... so it should work
[12:55] <madmcman> noone got any idea how to help me? i'm having trouble mounting my fedora partition can someone help me?  sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/sda2 gives mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member' cheers
[12:55] <gleaner> PriceChild I wonder why i get file not found error 15/
[12:55] <gleaner> ?
[12:56] <sacater> abo: do you have everything installed that you need, libraries for example
[12:56] <n2diy> JammasterJay: I prefer dapper, and 40g is plenty of space. Be sure you install winders first, and then Dapper.
[12:56] <nj786>  tritium, how do  i installl audacity onto unbuntu i have already downloaded it off the site
[12:56] <sacater> dakira: well it is for me
[12:56] <gleaner> any pointers or tips or clues PriceChild?
[12:56] <sacater> dakira: :(
[12:56] <PriceChild> gleaner, not a clue sorry.
[12:56] <abo> sacater, it used to work untill 2 weeks ago (when I tried it the last time) today I tried it and it didn't work
[12:56] <dakira> sacater: strange?!..
[12:57] <sacater> abo: hmm, have you had any software updates since then?
[12:57] <gleaner> lilo never did this to me

[12:59] <madmcman> i'm having trouble mounting my fedora partition can someone help me?  sudo mount /dev/sda2 /media/sda2 gives mount: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member' cheers
[12:59] <nj786> n2diy, how?
[12:59] <stamen> um..
[12:59] <jrib> nj786: you try to avoid that.  It is better to use synaptic.  What are you trying to install?
[01:00] <garryFre> There should be some instructions on installing packages downloaded, there is no one way to do it.
[01:00] <n2diy> nj786: start synaptic through the system>prefrences menu.
[01:00] <tjl30> jrib it is the same as it was before I updated
[01:00] <abo> sacater, is there a way I can tell which /dev/<device> is connected to the camera.. I know that I can do lsusb, and I get : Bus 005 Device 008: ID 054c:0010 Sony Corp. DSC-S30/S70/S75/F505V/F505/FD92 Cybershot/Mavica Digital Camera... is there a way to go from one to the other?
[01:00] <jrib> tjl30: ok, but can you pastebin it?
[01:00] <nj786> jrib, audacity
[01:00] <sacater> abo: can you try booting into the previous kernel for me
[01:00] <sacater> abo: maybe
[01:00] <nj786> n2diy, ok next step
[01:00] <pestilence> is there an open source way to burn my ubuntu iso in windows?
[01:00] <jrib> nj786: audacity is in synaptic
[01:01] <sacater> abo: try the older kernel please, see if that one still works, that way we may know if its to do with the kernel
[01:01] <garryFre> It depends on the package in other words. some you run a script, or compile
[01:01] <jrib> !burn > pestilence (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:01] <n2diy> nj786: search for what you want, mark it for install, and apply the changes.
[01:01] <nj786> jrib, wjat do you mean?
[01:01] <abo> sacater, ok I will
[01:01] <jrib> nj786: you can install audacity using synaptic, no need to download anything from the internet
[01:01] <nj786> jrib, i know unbuntu has audacity but it is giving me errors
[01:01] <sacater> abo: go into -15
[01:01] <pestilence> jrib: thanks
[01:01] <sacater> abo: not the new -16
[01:01] <abo> ok

[01:22] <jrib> tjl30: use pastebin
[01:22] <tjl30>  i did
[01:22] <jrib> tjl30: not for the "mount" output

[01:25] <ror> hi, how do I find out where my dvd writer is (in terms of /dev/something ) for growisofs
[01:25] <tjl30> jrib yes but it has the wrong name
[01:25] <tjl30> I want to mount it to hd2
[01:25] <DerangedDingo> dedi: I don't know... I think it's all microphone support in general
[01:25] <fbuilesv> py_geek: For plugins and stuff like that it's usually ~/.mozilla
[01:25] <jrib> tjl30: you need to update your fstab to say hdb1 instead of sdb1
[01:26] <DerangedDingo> dedi: stick with typing for now
[01:26] <jrib> tjl30: sdb1 doesn't exist right?

[01:27] <LucasCosta> jrib: i want to install nvidia drivers
[01:27] <jrib> LucasCosta: why would you need a livecd for that?
[01:27] <cables> LucasCosta: there's no way to install nVidia drivers in the LiveCD
[01:28] <v3n0m`> I can't seem to read CD - discs, but I can find the disc 'volume' when I go to System Preferences>Hardware information.. ?
[01:28] <cables> LucasCosta: I asked pretty much the same question a while back. You'll have to install the full system to install the nVidia driver
[01:28] <jrib> tjl30: do you know why it isn't mounted?
[01:28] <cables> LucasCosta: If you've got Windows and don't want to risk messing it up, try Wubi, it lets you install Ubuntu with a Windows EXE and remove it through the Windows Add/Remove thingy.
[01:29] <LucasCosta> jrib: the problem is that i got an hp laptop, and i want to install ubuntu in it, but even the livecd doesnt work, since the screen is all messed up because the drivers are missing
[01:29] <jrib> LucasCosta: ah, you should try the alternate cd
[01:29] <tjl30> jrib no I don't I just updated the computer and when I restarted it the folder hd2 was not mounted
[01:29] <DerangedDingo> dedi: this is a quite from winehq.org
[01:29] <DerangedDingo> dedi:   Voice communication doesn't work.

[01:32] <cables> !alternate | LucasCosta
[01:32] <ubotu> LucasCosta: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[01:32] <jrib> LucasCosta: not really... you won't be able to install it without going into the gui
[01:32] <cables> jrib: he can certainly install the nvidia driver without a GUI
[01:32] <jrib> s/it/ubuntu
[01:33] <LucasCosta> cables: yeah, thats what i want to do
[01:33] <cables> jrib: oh
[01:33] <jrib> LucasCosta: best thing to do is file a bug and use the alternate cd
[01:33] <cables> LucasCosta: you'll need to download the alternate CD, and install the nvidia driver from the terminal once it's installed. We can walk you through that.
[01:33] <cheeseboy> why wont ubuntu mount my pen drive?
[01:33] <cables> !repeat | cheeseboy
[01:33] <ubotu> cheeseboy: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[01:34] <cables> cheeseboy: also, it would be great if you could give us more info... there's a link in the topic that has a good guide to asking questions on IRC

[01:35] <TakeOut{u}> kbrooks, i guess you could try snownews or raggle

[01:37] <XiXaQ> hey. Where can I find the system requirements for Ubuntu feisty alternate?
[01:37] <dedi> DerangedDingo: fixed it. start teamspeak with alsa-oss
[01:37] <DrX> what type of filesystem (e.g., -t ext3) should i specify when mounting an LVM2 volume?
[01:38] <Valmarko> Does ubuntu have bluetooth support ?
[01:38] <meisam> cables then ?
[01:38] <cables> meisam: I don't know how to help you, I was just suggesting you give more info.
[01:38] <meisam> cables coldfusion*&
[01:38] <Pelo> XiXaQ,  the alternate cd is alternate because it is text based installer,  ie it will install a vesa video driver so you can install your own afterward,   the requirements themselves for runnng the os are the same
[01:38] <fbuilesv> Valmarko: yes
[01:38] <meisam> cables ok
[01:38] <ryan8403> Valkmarko: as far as I know it does pretty well

[01:39] <dontcho--> Valmarko there is ... applications -> add/remove    type blue   and you'll see
[01:39] <silent_> XiXaQ, if you have a system that cannot run gnome adequately I recommend Xubuntu

[01:40] <Valmarko> thanks ryan8403
[01:40] <XiXaQ> Pelo, but the requirements listed for the Desktop CD is for Live and graphical _install_ which requires alot more than running a normal system.
[01:40] <harald__> is there a version of madwifi which works for isight-macbook?

[01:40] <XiXaQ> silent_, I don't know if I can or not, because I haven't tried yet. That's why I need to find the requirements for the alternate CD.
[01:40] <cheeseboy> how i mount my pendrive??
[01:41] <ryan8403> valmarko: but you can try checking synaptic for any bluetooth packages that you might need
[01:41] <n2diy> who posted the pastebin for the boot message?
[01:41] <cables> cheeseboy: do you know what filesystem it is?
[01:41] <ryan8403> valmarko:it depends on what you are trying to do

[01:41] <Pelo> XiXaQ, I would go for the running system requirements as a basis for the alternate install then,  the requirements for the live cd are such because you are running the os form the RAM
[01:41] <cheeseboy> says wen i plug in
[01:41] <flaviocpontes> XiXaq: Why do you need to know the alternate CD requirements?

[01:44] <Pelo> Marupa, probably, vob is just a mpeg containner as far as I know,
[01:44] <ryan8403> valmarko: there is also a few packages you will want to install if they aren't there (I'm on my desktop and don't have bluetooth on it) I do know that you'll want bluez-gnome and the packages related to obex

[01:57] <docta_v> APT::Authentication::TrustCDROM "true";
[01:58] <Shadow503> Ok, I've just installed Ubuntu on from the live CD. I attempted to install it completely onto an external harddrive. The problem is that the ubuntu installer loaded grub onto my main harddrive.  When I boot from my main harddrive, grub throws an error 17. It won't let me boot in to windows or linux. My main HD has WinXP on it, so I can't read off the NTFS filesystem.  I'm currently running the liveCD.

[02:07] <NrbelexUbuntu> Ever since the most recent kernel update, my computer has booted *extremely* slowly and programs take *forever* to launch. Can somebody check out my system log and tell me if they notice anything? http://pastebin.ca/520522
[02:07] <jrib> py_geek: did you manage to enable multiverse?
[02:07] <py_geek> i could not find that... im sorry im a newb...
[02:07] <ajax4_> NrbelexUbuntu: I've had some stability issues with (I think) GDM since the kernel update.
[02:07] <jrib> py_geek: did you receive a private message from ubotu with instructions?
[02:07] <Pelo> NrbelexUbuntu, there have been several issues with the new kernel  boot the old one and check the forum for information
[02:08] <n2diy> NrbelexUbuntu: take a look at line 114 of your pastebin
[02:08] <py_geek> yes... i looked around but could not find multiverse... im sorry could you send me that again?
[02:08] <caminomaster> well, i need an aplication to monitor my hdd, an smart monitor
[02:08] <aquafunk> what is the user name for logging in as admin ... it doesn't seem to be "admin" :-)
[02:09] <dontcho--> aquafunk root
[02:09] <fbuilesv> aquafunk: root but it's not enabled by default.
[02:09] <LucasCosta> Pelo: sorry, but take a look at this... do i have to have ubuntu installed to get to the `apt-get` part?
[02:09] <LucasCosta> If there was an update that made your system non-bootable and they have fixed it in the repositories, you can use the Live CD to run apt-get to get the new files to fix your system.   Boot the Ubuntu Live CD.   Press Ctrl-Alt-F1   sudosu-   mount/dev/hda1/mnt   chroot/mnt   apt-getupdate   apt-getupgrade
[02:09] <silent_> root has no login
[02:09] <Pelo> caminomaster, menu > system > admin > synatpic ,  do a keyword search in there see if anything meets your needs
[02:09] <ajax4_> aquafunk: In Ubuntu there is no admin account. You go admin for a single command by using "sudo"
[02:09] <Pelo> LucasCosta,  yes
[02:09] <v3n0m`> I can't seem to read CD - discs, when I open the drive in Places>Computer it says 'Unable to Mount Media: there is probably no media in the drive', but I can find the disc 'volume' when I go to System Preferences>Hardware information.. ? any ideas?
[02:09] <jamster545> ajax4_ i got disconnected
[02:09] <py_geek> jrib?
[02:09] <silent_> you go admin for a terminal session by using "sudo so"
[02:09] <Jordan_U> Shadow503, OK, for a generic boot floppy one that will work on any computer but since it is universal needs to be given info about the system every time it is booted ( obviously a less than ideal solution ) to do that run "sudo grub-floppy /dev/fd0"
[02:10] <silent_> but most people would say that's 'bad'
[02:10] <aquafunk> ahhh OK thanks
[02:10] <jamster545> but i switched to the kubuntu computer
[02:10] <ajax4_> jamster545: Okay. Just paste that stuff to me privately when you can.
[02:10] <Pelo> LucasCosta,  what are you trying to do exactly ? are you tring to get a nvidia card working on the live cd or something ?
[02:10] <sldkfj> py_geek, are you using gnome desktop?
[02:10] <Jordan_U> Shadow503, looking for a better solution but you can do that if you need windows *now*
[02:10] <caminomaster> I ask cause I've installed smart-notifier but it don't seems to run
[02:10] <silent_> sodo su*
[02:10] <py_geek> sldkfj: yes

[02:11] <sldkfj> py_geek, hold on, let me get something for you..............
[02:11] <Drk_Guy> Hy guys!
[02:11] <Pelo> LucasCosta, if your nvidia card is  agp , enable your onboard graphic for the installation , then you can install and add the nvidia support after
[02:11] <Jordan_U> Shadow503, You may be able to find a windows MBR image online and just copy it to your MBR
[02:11] <sldkfj> py_geek, Open up your source repository list by going into System/Administration/Software Sources  and on the first tab check all the boxes there to open everything for updates; also uncheck the CD listing in the window at bottom.  You're set to do a system update

[02:12] <Shadow503> Jordan_U, sorry for asking, but how would I do that?
[02:12] <LucasCosta> Pelo: how do i do that, please?
[02:12] <Pelo> NrbelexUbuntu,  you grub boot menu should still have the old kernels listed unless you removed then already
[02:12] <n2diy> NrbelexUbuntu: you should be able to select the old kernel at boot. And, you could try booting with the instructions on line 114
[02:12] <Drk_Guy> I need help on how to install an Inf color profile in Feisty
[02:12] <Pelo> LucasCosta, from the bios I would expect,  but if your nvidia card is onboard forget it and go for the alternate cd
[02:13] <sldkfj> py_geek, OK?   easy enough?  :)
[02:13] <Jordan_U> Shadow503, I don't know specifically myself but someone here should, you would be using the "dd" command ( sorry that you seem to be stuck like this )
[02:13] <jamster545> ajax4_ are you there?
[02:13] <NrbelexUbuntu> Pelo, alright, I'll give that a try
[02:13] <ajax4_> jamster545: I got it. I'm reading it but I can't help. I know how you can paste your stuff into pastebin though so someone else can help.

[02:14] <Jordan_U> Shadow503, I think I actually found a package that installs a windows MBR!
[02:14] <Shadow503> Jordan_U, I'm trying your temporary fix for now, once I get back into windows, I will run the command fixmbr to restore the winxp mbr, and then I'll simply have to boot off my external hd manually. Thankyou very much for your help
[02:14] <ajax4_> jamster545: Try pasting that output into pastebin but make sure you turn on JavaScript first.
[02:15] <Drk_Guy> Pelo, terminal says "Gparted" Command not found

[02:20] <sldkfj> py_geek, spend some time in 'Synaptic Package Manager' it's a super tool to know.    glad to help.
[02:20] <nj786> precaution i dont think my unbuntu reads 1 of my cd-rom drives
[02:20] <Shadow503> Jordan_U, if MS-sys doesn't work I'll try it again with a different floppy
[02:20] <Kuma> jamster545: well, not right now. I'm actually using windows
[02:20] <jamin> i just added a program with Add/Remove programs, how to i get it into my Applications list?
[02:20] <AstralSin> but yes, it is a new layer, text tool creates a new layer
[02:20] <ajax4_> AstralSin: I'm not an expert at GIMP but I've used it quite a bit. Have you anchored the text or is it still floating?
[02:20] <jamster545> ok go to your menu bar *at bottom of screen* and there is an icon by your time that looks like a phone jack. you need to click that and aselect your internet connection
[02:20] <nj786> preaction do you know anything about printers?
[02:20] <Flannel> jamin: which program did you add?
[02:21] <AstralSin> still floating, it should look finished even while floating
[02:21] <Drk_Guy> Pelo, the wrong thing is that the Windoze's main Hd has the "boot" flag....
[02:21] <Pelo> AstralSin,  there is a #gimp and a #gimp-user I think
[02:21] <ajax4_> AstralSin: Not sure about that, because its in a separate layer still.
[02:21] <jamster545> did you get that kuma?
[02:21] <Pelo> Drk_Guy, what is the issue you are experiencing ?
[02:21] <AstralSin> Pelo, yeah, and they're devoid of any help :)
[02:22] <jamin> Flannel: KAlarm
[02:22] <AstralSin> well, there's a #gimp, no #gimp-user
[02:22] <Drk_Guy> Pelo, GNU Boot Loader doesn't recognize Windoze as a Boot "capable" OS
[02:22] <Drk_Guy> What can i do Pelo
[02:22] <LastHylian> freedomfighter: hey. You there?
[02:22] <Pelo> dark, lovely
[02:22] <Flannel> jamin: Alright.  Well, with Alacarte menu editor, you can add stuff to your menus
[02:22] <AstralSin> oh well, guess i'll hack around with it till i figure it out
[02:22] <Pelo> Drk_Guy,  pastebin your /boot/grub/menu.lst  file
[02:23] <LastHylian> hello?
[02:23] <FreedomFighter> Rumor has it hello is there a security forum of ubuntu, LastHylian
[02:23] <NrbelexUbuntu> Pelo & all, I'm now in the prior kernel and everything is working at full speed - is this going to be fixed in the next kernel!?
[02:23] <Kuma> jamster545: yes... but i connect trough cable, besides, my Internet connection usually works...
[02:23] <leonel> is there a ubuntu-java  team  or  ubuntu-openjdk  team

[02:24] <NrbelexUbuntu> Pelo, n2diy, thanks
[02:24] <Pelo> Drk_Guy, ok hold on

[02:24] <meisam> what should i do ?
[02:24] <jrib> meisam: use sudo

[02:24] <Pelo> Drk_Guy,  taht isn'T all of it , not even half , try again
[02:25] <Drk_Guy> Ok

[02:25] <Chillyboarder> guys, cant install automatix through terminal cuz no python, cant install python cuz no python minimal, installed python2.4-minimal now, but still get errors for other stuff.
[02:25] <meisam> jrib actually it is not that simple, i try to run this command because i had to  PS1=whatever ./coldfusion-702-lin.bin
[02:25] <Pelo> wizdom, try amorak or gtkpod
[02:25] <Jordan_U> wizdom, Not legally, but I believe that it is possible
[02:25] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: don't install automatix.  Its no good.
[02:26] <noxs> hi all
[02:26] <Drk_Guy> Pelo, sorry, here it is: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23190/
[02:26] <n2diy> ! automatic | Chillyboarder
[02:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automatic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:26] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, donT' use automatix, it's not worth it
[02:26] <Chillyboarder> I need gnome-ppp
[02:26] <n2diy> ! automatix | Chillyboarder
[02:26] <ubotu> Chillyboarder: 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
[02:26] <LjL> FreedomFighter, hello
[02:26] <Kuma> jamster545_ did you got my response?
[02:26] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: enable universe, and install gnome-ppp then.
[02:26] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, sudo apt-get install gnome-ppp
[02:26] <Chillyboarder> gnome-ppp isn't there
[02:26] <Chillyboarder> for some reason
[02:26] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: you need to enable universe
[02:26] <noxs> q: i want to upgrade my debian etch to feisty fawn...and now i get an error:
[02:26] <Chillyboarder> kay 1sec

[02:26] <Chillyboarder> dunt talk to me, only msg, gona look at laptop lol
[02:27] <LjL> noxs: that's quite totally unsupported
[02:27] <mwalsh> Help,kind peoples?
[02:27] <noxs> hmm...okay...
[02:27] <Drk_Guy> Pelo, most of the soft isn't in synaptic, only in the command line
[02:27] <Pelo> dark,  is that the whole file ? cause I donT' see a windows entry in it
[02:27] <Flannel> Drk_Guy: no.  Synaptic has everything.  Add/remove doesn't
[02:27] <jamin> Flannel: and where do i get this alacarte?
[02:27] <noxs> so shall i save my data and reinstall a fresh feisty fawn installation?
[02:27] <LjL> FreedomFighter, have you checked out this channel's guidelines?
[02:27] <Drk_Guy> Pelo, it is ALL of it
[02:27] <Pelo> Drk_Guy,  synaptic is just a gui frontend for apt-get ,  it is all in there
[02:27] <Chillyboarder> flannel, where do I enable universe?
[02:27] <Flannel> !universe | Chillyboarder
[02:27] <ubotu> Chillyboarder: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[02:28] <mwalsh> How do I make my resolution 1440x900?
[02:28] <Drk_Guy> Pelo, i was confused about the advanced Synaptic and Add/Remove, sorry, sorry
[02:28] <Chillyboarder> k 1sec
[02:28] <Frogzoo> noxs: there's no reliable path to migrate from debian to ubuntu - the packages are not compatible
[02:28] <Drk_Guy> Mwalsh, you need the drivers for your Video card
[02:28] <mwalsh> I believe I have them
[02:28] <noxs> hmm...okay..
[02:28] <noxs> thx
[02:28] <Chillyboarder> Flannel: 1st link is 500 internal error, 2nd link dunt even work.
[02:28] <Pelo> Drk_Guy,  ok you are going to need to add a menu item for windows,  I will copy it from mine so you can paste it at the end of your menu.lst,  I need you to get me the devtree of the windows partiton , you can get it from  gparted,
[02:29] <Drk_Guy> Jamin, type sudo alacarte in a terminal
[02:29] <LjL> FreedomFighter list
[02:29] <Drk_Guy> Ok Pelo
[02:29] <Pelo> Drk_Guy,   add/remove is another gui frontend for apt-get but it is limited to applications, you donT' get all the pacakges and libraries
[02:29] <nblracer> how can i get the latest packege in my Synaptic Manger
[02:29] <sldkfj> Flannel, the Sources Repository List are at System/Administration/Software Sources  and on the first tab check all the boxes there to open everything for updates; also uncheck the CD listing in the window at bottom.  You're set to do a system update
[02:29] <nblracer> looking for bugzilla 3
[02:29] <NrbelexUbuntu> Pelo, n2diy, Will it be safe to install the next kernel since doing so will delete the entry I'm currently using in GRUB? i.e. Are you confident the problem will be solved?
[02:29] <Akuma_> anyone using privoxy? why does it block some sites? (with a 'go there anyway' link)
[02:30] <Flannel> Chillyboarder, read what sldkfj just said
[02:30] <Drk_Guy> But the wrong thing in Gparted is that it shows a warning symbol in front of the Windowze drives Pelo, does that matters
[02:30] <zcat[1] > can I ask an active directory question in here? nobody on #windows seems ot know.. :(
[02:30] <Pelo> NrbelexUbuntu, just move the entries around ,
[02:30] <LjL> zcat[1] : no
[02:30] <zcat[1] > **sigh**
[02:30] <sldkfj> Flannel, sorry, I hit the wrong nick
[02:30] <LjL> this channel is already busy enough answering Ubuntu questions, sorry
[02:30] <NrbelexUbuntu> Pelo, I forgot one can do that, haha - thanks
[02:31] <Pelo> Drk_Guy, it does not matter,  the warning is probably because it is wirte only or because it uses the fuse module to read it
[02:31] <BlueBird22>  is there an easy guidance for a noob newbie to make lucent winmodem work on ubuntu ?
[02:31] <Chillyboarder> sldkfj or flannel, internet is needed to update, I'm needing this gnome-ppp to get onto the internet lol...
[02:31] <Shadow503> Jordan_U, I tried using that program to write the windows mbr to the device I thought was booting, but it when I rebooted I still got GRUB
[02:31] <Drk_Guy> Ok, i will re-enable the Fuses with Ntfs-config Pelo, that should remove the warning
[02:31] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: Automatix won't be able to help you there either.  Do you have the desktop CD or the alternate CD?
[02:31] <Frogzoo> !winmodem
[02:31] <ubotu> You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto

[02:32] <Chillyboarder> im gona have access for high speed tomorrow though btw, so if ubuntu ready set for that then might be able to get workin better.
[02:32] <Shadow503> Jordan_U, does that mean that I wrote it to the wrong device?
[02:32] <Jordan_U> Shadow503, Since it is not clear to me from quickly looking at the man page for ms-sys how to use it, someone posted how to do it easily, look for traveler's post about gag ( basically gag is just another bootloader that comes with an "uninstaller" that rights a windows MBR back to the disk ) http://mepislovers.org/forums/archive/index.php/t-4771.html
[02:33] <mwalsh> Anyone can help me change my resolution to 1440x900?
[02:33] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: You don't need gnome-ppp to connect though.  That's just eyecandy.  Also, if you want, you can sneakernet it to that machine.
[02:33] <ubuntu_> Hi. Have a problem with sound device( HD Intel), the microphone in particular. Can't change the source device. It shows only "line" and the option "front" which stands for the from  mic, is not there. Any idea how to fix the problem.

[02:34] <Jordan_U> mwalsh, System -> Administration -> Restricted Driver Manager to install the drivers for your card
[02:34] <ubotu> axl: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[02:34] <mwalsh> Jordan_U yes the drivers are installed but the option still does not appear
[02:34] <crdlb> mwalsh, try: gksu nvidia-settings

[02:39] <nj786> eugman, where can i find this alsamixer
[02:40] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[02:40] <eugman> nj786, it's probably installed. Do you know how to use the command line?
[02:40] <nj786> eugman, not really
[02:40] <n2diy> Chillyboarder: does kppp start for you?
[02:40] <Pokit> quicktabb, try typing sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
[02:40] <zacherrin> i would like to attempt to get a better screen resolution...if anyone can help me with that it would be great.  i have very little experience on linux. if someone is up for the challenge pm me

[02:41] <nj786> eugman?
[02:41] <eugman> sorry, yes
[02:41] <Chillyboarder> same as gnome-ppp
[02:41] <Pelo> UsAndTheM,  you mean  internet that works through walls across the air ? we donT' deal with witchcraft in this channel
[02:42] <greg1977> >	Hi. Have a problem with sound device( HD Intel), the microphone in particular. Can't change the source device. It shows only "line" and the option "front" which stands for the front mic, is not there. Any idea how to fix the problem in order to get the microphone work?
[02:42] <UsAndTheM> lol
[02:42] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: Of course you won't be able to install any additional packages.  You don't have the internet.  Which is whythe first link is there.
[02:42] <eugman> it's a terminal program and If I recall it is probably installed.
[02:42] <Jordan_U> UsAndTheM, I am sure many of the 1116 people here use wifi... :)
[02:42] <fryguy> how can I get digital output on a realtek alc850 card?
[02:42] <n2diy> Chillyboarder: launch synaptic with the menu system>admin>synaptic, and then search for it there.
[02:42] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto/SetUpDialer#head-f5120acdc3ef62fe7d37bfd3f0c9157ebe9c8ef6
[02:42] <Flannel> n2diy: he has no interblags
[02:42] <UsAndTheM> i have a netgear USB stick and it wont connect
[02:43] <n2diy> Flannel: what's an interblag!? :)
[02:43] <nj786> eugman, can i install alsamixer from synaptic?
[02:43] <sldkfj> nj786, yes
[02:44] <nj786> sldfkj, which 1 do i need to select?
[02:45] <Chillyboarder> is kppp only for kubuntu?
[02:45] <nj786> sldkfj, alsamixergui or gnome-alsamixer?
[02:45] <mh_le> how do I modify the startup script for mysql to enable query logging?
[02:46] <sldkfj> nj786, are you using gnome?
[02:46] <nj786> sldkfj, or both?
[02:46] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: no.  But you shouldn't be using either.  use System > Administration > Networking
[02:46] <nj786> yes
[02:46] <sldkfj> do that
[02:46] <nj786> ok
[02:46] <sldkfj> I think that's what I have installed
[02:46] <Chillyboarder> yeh, am followin the link,
[02:46] <Jordan_U> Shadow503, Did using gag work?
[02:46] <ryan8403> ok...so not the brightest bulb here...i committed my entire home directory to svn but the svn server choked in the middle of the commit...how can I roll back / remove the .svn folders
[02:46] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: even if you only use it once. once you're connected, you can get gnome-ppp
[02:46] <ryan8403> even if it is by hand
[02:46] <nj786> sldkfj, now exactly where do i find alsamixer
[02:46] <sldkfj> in sound
[02:46] <Flannel> ryan8403: just removing all .svn folders will work.
[02:47] <Chillyboarder> yeh, is gnome modem monitor already installed then? to liek connect/disconnect?
[02:47] <Jordan_U> nj786, Open a terminal and run "alsamixer"
[02:47] <nj786> it is not there sldfkj
[02:47] <sldkfj> if it's not there, right click on applications, and hit edit menu
[02:47] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: No.  You'll use the networking GUI each time.  Until you install the gnome monitor
[02:47] <ryan8403> Flannel...yeah...but its my home directory...couple hundred folders :(
[02:47] <Flannel> ryan8403: actually... what does svn status give you?
[02:47] <Chillyboarder> GUI?
[02:47] <sldkfj> open sound, and check the box
[02:48] <Flannel> Chillyboarder: System > Admin  > Networking
[02:48] <gnomefreak> Chillyboarder: graphical user interface
[02:48] <Jordan_U> !terminal | sldkfj alsamixer isn't in any of the menus because it is a terminal program
[02:48] <ubotu> sldkfj alsamixer isn't in any of the menus because it is a terminal program: 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
[02:48] <nj786> jordan_u, ok i see the status of my mic it is 0% how do i enable it?
[02:48] <Flannel> ryan8403: since, theyll have .svn folders as soon as you do the add.  the commit shouldnt change that at all
[02:48] <nj786> jordan_u can i send u a screenshot?
[02:48] <Jordan_U> nj786, Use the arrow keys to change channels and volume, "m" key to mute/unmute
[02:49] <ryan8403> Flannel, which svn command?
[02:49] <Chillyboarder> thx gnomefreak, and Flannel: I'm under my modem setings, and choose "tone" then click ok, then close, then go back to it, and its back to "pulse"
[02:49] <sldkfj> alright, I got it confused with something else
[02:49] <sldkfj> sorry
[02:49] <DrX> how do i (quickly) search a filesystem for a file containing a specific text string?
[02:49] <Chillyboarder> wont stay to "tone"
[02:49] <nj786> jordan_u, what does PCM stand for?
[02:49] <Flannel> ryan8403: `svn status` should show a bunch of "A" next to everything.  Once you did the adds, you'll have .svn folders
[02:49] <sldkfj> nj786, I guess you can load the gui app if you like
[02:50] <LjL> DrX: "quickly", that's quite impossible. grep -R string /mount/point/*
[02:50] <zacherrin> any able to help me get a better screen resolution, i am on a gateway laptop, with intel 950 graphics card
[02:50] <Jordan_U> nj786, Pulse Code Modulation I think
[02:50] <nj786> jordan_u meaning?
[02:50] <Jordan_U> zacherrin, install 915resolution from universe
[02:50] <cry0x> zacherrin, is it widescreen?
[02:50] <zacherrin> 17 in, yeah
[02:50] <nj786> jordan_u should i just enable all of the 1z that are disabled?
[02:50] <nj786> ones*
[02:50] <DrX> LjL, is grep faster than Gnome filebrowser search?
[02:50] <Jordan_U> nj786, that should work
[02:51] <nj786> jordan_u, so should i enable everything that is disabled?
[02:51] <LjL> DrX: no idea, i don't use GNOME. i'd assume it uses grep under the hoods really.
[02:51] <Jordan_U> nj786, Yes
[02:51] <ryan8403> flannel, I get svn warning '.' is not a working copy
[02:51] <[FreshUbuntu] > I am in the process of installing Ubuntu on about 30 computers, Feisty Fawn has problem detecting Serial & PS/2 mouses on some PCs, has anyone experience this also? It worked fine in Ubuntu 6.10 though...
[02:51] <DrX> LjL, OMD is it slow... i think we need to lay off knocking Windows  now
[02:52] <DrX> OMD=OMG
[02:52] <Flannel> ryan8403: Which folder are you in?
[02:52] <ryan8403> :) my home folder
[02:52] <nj786> jordan_u and is it okay to increase the % on all of them?
[02:52] <Chillyboarder> Flannel: I'm under my modem setings, and choose "tone" then click ok, then close, then go back to it, and its back to "pulse"
[02:52] <Flannel> DrX: well, it's simply recusing through each folder and checking each filename.
[02:52] <Jordan_U> nj786, Yes, it can't hurt anything but your ears :)
[02:53] <r00tintheb0x> Anyone know what would cause choppy sound in Rune by Loki (a linux game).
[02:53] <ryan8403> flannel:  find . -name .svn | xargs rm -rf seems to be working for me
[02:53] <r00tintheb0x> ?
[02:53] <v3n0m`> I can't seem to read CD - discs, when I open the drive in Places>Computer it says 'Unable to Mount Media: there is probably no media in the drive', but I can find the disc 'volume' when I go to System Preferences>Hardware information.. ? any ideas?
[02:53] <nj786> jordan_u ,  i know i just want to record stuff
[02:53] <DrX> LjL, I presume the string is encapsulated in double quotes, yes?
[02:54] <testjack> I am new to ubuntu, or linux for that matter.  I am trying to configure my monitor and video card. Can anyone help?
[02:54] <LjL> DrX, there are a couple of things that attempt to search very quickly inside collections of documents, however they all require some "pre-scanning" and storing of informations. beagle, strigi, kat...
[02:54] <DrX> Flannel, no, like, OMG is it slow... I could probably BUILD a Starbucks in the time it's taking let alone buy a latte!
[02:54] <LjL> DrX: not necessarily, but since it's really a regular expression, you'll have to escape some characters. put it in quotes anyway
[02:55] <DrX> so "string literal"
[02:55] <DrX> LjL, so "string literal"?
[02:55] <LjL> DrX: yes, but again it's really a regular expression. if you need to use non-alphanumeric characters in it, add the "-F" option to grep
[02:55] <foso> how do i change my partition size?
[02:55] <Pelo> foso,  carefully
[02:56] <Pelo> foso,  boot up the live cd , menu > system > admin > gnome partition editor
[02:56] <DrX> LjL, the string is /dev/loop0
[02:56] <Pelo> foso,  you can't extend to the left , you must move first and then resize
[02:56] <foso> pelo, should i back up first? is this risky? i set up the partition and installed ubuntu when i reinstalled windows over spring break
[02:57] <LjL> DrX: not sure right now if / is a special character in a regex... don't think so. add -F anyway, it won't hurt.
[02:57] <Pelo> foso,  backing up in NEVER a bad idea
[02:57] <XiXaQ> How can I install ubuntu from the net?
[02:57] <Pelo> is NEVER
[02:57] <LjL> !minimal | XiXaQ
[02:57] <ubotu> XiXaQ: The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD

[02:57] <Akuma_> I've just installed tor + privoxy on feisty, and with the Tor button firefox extension it works out of the box - yet on the TOR ubuntu wiki page there is no mention of feisty, and the setup is overly complex. anyone cares to update the wiki?
[02:58] <DrX> LjL, thanks!
[02:58] <XiXaQ> thanks guys.
[02:58] <testjack> How do I specify or configure my monitor?

[02:59] <testjack> I have a 22" flat panel and can only get 1024x768
[02:59] <nblracer> can i use rpm, insteed of deb?
[02:59] <Akuma_> Jordan_U: i just did it; why i'm asking is if someone could update the wiki. the instructions are overly complex
[02:59] <pcbsd> hello kitsume
[02:59] <Jordan_U> !rpm | nblracer
[02:59] <ubotu> nblracer: RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[02:59] <barbarella_me> Akuma:that's what a wiki is for. Edit it
[02:59] <shiikusu> nblracer: you have to use alien to make it into a deb.
[02:59] <Pelo> testjack, you need to add the extra resolutions manualy to your xorg.conf file    gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:59] <kitsune> Anybody else having trouble with https in firefox?
[03:00] <Akuma_> barbarella_me: i'm not confident enough about the issue
[03:00] <zacherrin> can someone help me with this 915resolution deal
[03:00] <kkathman> actually the name RPM was change many years ago to RPM package management
[03:00] <testjack> ok...thank you Pelo....I'll try that
[03:00] <barbarella_me> kitsune:nop
[03:00] <kitsune> I tried installing mozilla-psm and it didn't work
[03:00] <kitsune> hmm
[03:00] <nblracer> but i cant find a apt bugzilla 3
[03:01] <barbarella_me> Akuma_:maybe in the future
[03:01] <nblracer> if any one can help me, find a way so i can it to Synaptic manger
[03:01] <Akuma_> whatever i'll just go and update it myself. i'll just assume someone else will cover me if i screw up

[03:11] <Chillyboarder> maybe modem port?
[03:11] <Chillyboarder> is wrong?
[03:12] <volfied> barbarella_me: it is a dell inspiron 8600, and I think it is all defaults, I havent touched it before except for changing the boot order
[03:12] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  check in the hardware infor in system admin ( maybe prefs)  find the modem and check the /dev/ttyS*  port

[03:15] <kitsune> help with firefox and https. Anyone?
[03:15] <lee_> whats wrong kitsune
[03:15] <Pelo> kitche, #firefox
[03:15] <Chillyboarder> there is jus tons of stuff listed, most of it unknown, and jus weird named, cant find the modem.
[03:16] <mtv> i am having issues with audio.  I am running dapper with Intel ICH5 audio card
[03:16] <volfied> barbarella_me: I found a different tutorial on the web, I'll try that, thanks for your help
[03:16] <Pelo> chillware, try lspci in the terminal
[03:16] <barbarella_me> volfied:laptops are not made for a server.
[03:16] <nj786> can anybody tell me why my mic and sound do not work
[03:16] <Rio79> okay stupid question... whats the difference between "twinview" and "seperate x screen" configurations?
[03:17] <zacherrin> jordon after i do all of that and select the resolutions i want, do i need to restart or anything?
[03:17] <lee_> twinview is duplicate screen
[03:17] <kitsune> lee: I'm trying to login into my school portal which uses https. It worked fine this morning and now I get a message saying Firefox doesn't know how to communicate with the server. after doing some research, I thought I just needed to install Personal Security Manager
[03:17] <Pelo> !sound | nj786
[03:17] <ubotu> nj786: 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
[03:17] <Armageddon00> Does anyone know why Totem would show a blue tint on the video?  I think its only with WMVs.
[03:17] <Rio79> lee_ okay so seperate x screen is what i want if you have two monitors with different displays.....
[03:17] <barbarella_me> nj786:a good start would be to tell us what kind of hardware you have!
[03:17] <Gurpartap> the update manager won't reply as the login as root window doesn't open up
[03:18] <Chillyboarder> no lspci no, there are a bunch of bus type "PCI"'s though.
[03:18] <Rio79> lee_ okay cool... thanks man
[03:18] <kitsune> lee: so, I installed mozilla-psm and nothing happened. I also updated libnss3 and nothing still
[03:18] <Gurpartap> is that a know bug?
[03:18] <lee_> rio79 yeah
[03:18] <Gurpartap> known*
[03:18] <kitsune> lee: any thoughts?
[03:18] <nj786> barbarella_me i have a dell
[03:19] <lee_> kitsune if it worked before and it's not working now its probably not your setup
[03:19] <barbarella_me> nj786:yes...nice...dell made a lot of series
[03:19] <DrX> LjL, the grep command shows nothing for that string and for another string that I copied out of a file... what am I doing wrong?
[03:19] <nj786> barbarella_me dimension 8250
[03:19] <LjL> DrX what are you typing exactly
[03:19] <j1tters> anyone here running ubuntu fiesty on a lappy with everything working. im looking for a suggestion as to what lap to buy?
[03:19] <DrX> (I ran grep -R -F "/dev/cdrom" /dev/sda2
[03:19] <kitsune> lee: yeah. I'm trying to check with the school to see if they changed anything.
[03:19] <DrX> )
[03:20] <Chillyboarder> Pelo : no lspci no, there are a bunch of bus type "PCI"'s though.
[03:20] <TTRanger> Looks like Linux likes to appreviate just about everything.  The root list of folders is almost all abbreviated.  Is there a standardized place where people keep things like data files?  Would it be under usr, or home, or ??
[03:20] <kitsune> lee: You're probably right. I'll try again later
[03:20] <zacherrin> Jordan you still around?
[03:20] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, isnT' your modem pci ?  if it is it sould be listed there,  find the name and look for it in hardware infor
[03:20] <LjL> DrX, you're not searching a filesystem, you're searching *one* file (specifically, a device file). at best, grep will tell you that "the binary file matches" (as /dev/sda2) is quite bound to be a binary file, and in any case it could never tell you the matching filename
[03:20] <DrX> LjL, should I be using / (the mountpoint) instead of /dev/sda2?
[03:20] <lee_> TTranger: be more specific than data files
[03:21] <LjL> DrX: indeed
[03:21] <Pelo> LjL, doyou know how Chillyboarder can find his modem 's tty  quickly ?
[03:21] <Chillyboarder> ugh, I'll jsut lookup my laptop at dell.ca...
[03:21] <TTRanger> lee_ Ok, as in, data created by projects.  Sound files, word processor files, "documents," etc.
[03:21] <DrX> LjL, oh, I need to know which file contains the string!
[03:21] <lee_> TTranger: /home/<user_name>
[03:21] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  tty is the linux equivalent of a com port
[03:21] <TTRanger> lee_ k thanks
[03:21] <lee_> ttranger: /root for silly people
[03:22] <TTRanger> lee_ I'm not *that* silly  :-)
[03:22] <LjL> Pelo, i think pppconfig can detect where the modem is. it must not be a softmodem, of course
[03:22] <Chillyboarder> com port?
[03:22] <mtv> what is the safest way to upgrade from dapper to fiesty
[03:23] <Pelo> LjL,  Chillyboarder  is trying to setup a dialup connection and he's having trouble with the network gui app
[03:23] <LjL> DrX: if you're grepping root there's a problem still, though... it will be searching in /proc, /sys and other mounted filesystems as well i'm afraid
[03:23] <barbarella_me> nj786:all are supported by ubuntu
[03:23] <nj786> barbarellla_me yes
[03:24] <LjL> Pelo, one could probably do  cat ATDTsome-bogus-phone-number >/dev/ttyS#  with # going from 0 to 3, i suppose (with modem disconnected from the phoneline...), and see if it dials
[03:24] <Chillyboarder> O.O
[03:24] <Pelo> LjL,  he just asked what a com port is,  I donT' think that is going to work
[03:25] <klobster> I just got this error message yesterday, it's my new favorite:
[03:25] <Chillyboarder> explain and I will learn
[03:25] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  just try the modem as it,  pon and poff to connect and disconnect
[03:25] <klobster> The program 'apt-get' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[03:25] <klobster> sudo apt-get install apt
[03:25] <LjL> Pelo, if he's looking for point and click, you know i'm not even using gnome
[03:25] <Chillyboarder> k
[03:25] <m0u5e> klobster: lol
[03:25] <DrX> LjL, is that a problem?  i don't mind searching everything, but I just need a list of which files contain a specific string literal
[03:25] <m0u5e> klobster: is that even possible? :X
[03:25] <Pelo> LjL, ok we'll just try to see if he's got it working from what he's already setup , and take it from there , I've never actualy done it myself
[03:25] <Chillyboarder> well I changed the modem to every1 of the ones listed and tried em all with "tone" but they all went back to pulse
[03:26] <LjL> DrX: yeah it'll be a problem as it'll get stuck in an infinite loop in /proc
[03:26] <eric> DrX: write a perl script to ignore /proc ;)
[03:26] <eric> :)
[03:26] <FelipeMatos> !packs
[03:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about packs - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:26] <klobster> m0u5e: I only had my boot drive mounted, I have no idea why it told me that.  I knew it was a non issue, but it was still hilarious
[03:26] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, try dialing out first, witht he modem unplugged,  at least that will tell us if you hve the right one, we'll deal with the tone /pulse issue after
[03:27] <LjL> DrX: could try  find -print0 / | xargs -n 1 grep -F "string"  i suppose
[03:27] <j1tters> laptop anyone?
[03:27] <Chillyboarder> oh ok
[03:27] <Chillyboarder> so i dunt have to connect the line to do this testing?
[03:27] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, I wouldn'T think so
[03:27] <Chillyboarder> k
[03:28] <Chillyboarder> unrecognised option '/dev/modem/
[03:29] <Chillyboarder> keep goin back to network settings, and "wired connection" keeps goin back to checked and uncheks "modem"
[03:29] <jmg> hey all anyone know where i can get kernel 2.6.22-5-generic backported for feisty?
[03:30] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  try this  http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[03:30] <Chillyboarder> unrecognised option '/dev/modem/' did that for dev/modem/ and TTS0
[03:31] <Chillyboarder> k
[03:31] <Shaddox> Hi everyone.
[03:31] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  that probably meand that /dev/modem and ttys0 arent, the ones for your modem
[03:31] <Shaddox> How come whenever I try to install a package, my Ubuntu Server asks for the Server CD, even though it's already in?
[03:31] <Chillyboarder> kay
[03:31] <Flannel> Shaddox: Comment out the CD from your sources.list
[03:32] <Shaddox> Flannel: Can you tell me how to do that in console, or will I have to use an Xnest'ed xdmcp connection?
[03:32] <Shaddox> Flannel: I am logged in on the server as root from here, via SSH.
[03:32] <Flannel> Shaddox: sudo nano /etc/init.d/sources.list
[03:32] <Flannel> Shaddox: eh? don't use root.  theres no reason
[03:32] <Drk_Guy> Hy guys
[03:32] <Flannel> then add a # to the from of the line (near the top) that looks like a CD
[03:33] <Drk_Guy> My Xorg.conf file is screwed
[03:33] <zeen> hy.............
[03:33] <Drk_Guy> Can anyone send me their Xorg.conf file????
[03:33] <Flannel> Shaddox: ctrl-O to save, ctrl-X to quit, then sudo apt-get update to update your package cache, and continue to install whatever
[03:33] <Shaddox> Flannel: I just use root for trying to install qmail, cause there's all kinds of things I have to do as root and it beats constantly typing 'sudo'

[03:40] <Flannel> lee_: you mean like "ctrl-alt-f1"? or what?
[03:41] <Shaddox> FelipeMatos: Use the ubuntu download system, but choose the united states InterNAP mirror, that usually goes quite fast for me but im not sure how fast itll be for you.

[03:43] <pietro10> So how do you reset the Accessibility preferences? I use Beryl's magnification now, which I like better, but after what I did the GNOME magnifier turns on when I access the preferences
[03:43] <Shaddox> i just barely finally got xdmcp working
[03:43] <jrib> nblracer: what do you mean by "latest"?

[03:46] <ash_> !iso
[03:46] <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.
[03:47] <r00tintheb0x> wow @ http://www.getdeb.net/
[03:47] <ash_> Doesnt Mplayer play iso files?
[03:47] <rollerskatejamms> ash_, Actually AcetoneISO is a lot better then that.
[03:47] <jrib> nblracer: ah well it was released after feisty was frozen so it won't end up in the repositories.  Your only chance would be a backport from gutsy repositories, but you may be better off just compiling it
[03:47] <pietro10> You could just use Synaptec
[03:47] <jrib> !backports > nblracer (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:47] <ash_> rollerskatejamms: thanks
[03:47] <nblracer> already looked there
[03:47] <pietro10> So what do you need?

[03:49] <rollerskatejamms> pietro10, that sucks. gconf maybe?

[03:54] <ryushe> Hi there, I just installed Ubuntu on a SATA disk, with an existing WinXP install on a primary IDE disk. Install went fine, after rebooting system says 'Operating System Not Found'. Booting from the Ubuntu CD and choosing boot from first hard disk gives me grub. any ideas?
[03:54] <ryushe> oh, Grub does correctly list operating systems present (Ubuntu, WinXP)
[03:55] <poltomb> hey, im new to linux and I was wondering what partitions and sizes i would need
[03:55] <peepsalot> how can i see where the files have been placed for an installed package?
[03:56] <crdlb> peepsalot, dpkg -L package
[03:56] <crdlb> iirc
[03:56] <Capso> Any of you guys tried Metissa?
[03:56] <peepsalot> thx crdlb
[03:57] <poltomb> if there is anyone who can possibly help me with partitioning please msg me
[03:58] <lee_> hi linux

[03:59] <bthornton>  if I am viewing/submitting information via an SSL-encrypted page with Firefox, and I'm connecting through an insecure wireless network, can malicious users in the local Wi-Fi area disseminate the transfers?  Or can they just see the "unencrypted version of the encrypted payload" across the WiFi channel?
[03:59] <lee_> no bthornton
[03:59] <crimsun> bthornton: they can easily decipher as far into the stack that isn't enciphered.
[04:00] <crimsun> MAC, source/dest IP & TCP ports, etc.

[04:01] <adamh> I just got an external hard drive. Ubuntu recognizes it ("sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/sda1 -t vfat" works) but Ubuntu doesn't automatically mount it. USB drives are auto-mounted. How can I get Ubuntu to auto-mount it?
[04:01] <lee_> put it in fstab
[04:01] <lee_> /etc/fstab
[04:02] <adamh> (Confused) doesn't Ubuntu auto-mount anything *not* in fstab? It auto-mounts all my USB keys...
[04:02] <Lilacor> !automount
[04:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about automount - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[04:02] <gtroy> !mount
[04:02] <peepsalot> what is the command for configuring multiple programs of one name?  alternatives or something?
[04:02] <ubotu> Partitioning programs: !GParted or QTParted (also "man mkfs" for formatting) - Mounting partitions in Gnome under Dapper: System -> Administration -> Disks - For Edgy, see !fstab and !DiskMounter
[04:02] <gtroy> ok...
[04:03] <lee_> peepsalot thats vague
[04:03] <peepsalot> !alternatives
[04:03] <ubotu> To change the default applications system-wide, use 'sudo update-alternatives --all' in a terminal.
[04:03] <ryushe> Anyone on the post install issue about not being able to boot into any operating system when rebooting?
[04:03] <Grizzil> why my desktop effects work only on the live cd ?
[04:03] <peepsalot> hmm
[04:03] <adamh> !fstab
[04:03] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[04:03] <Grizzil> I am new to linux
[04:03] <lee_> grizzil you're not using the same driver set

[04:04] <mrsempai> can someone help me with the tls for amsn
[04:04] <peepsalot> i don't understand!
[04:04] <lee_> peepsalot make sure you have the right link set up in /usr/bin
[04:04] <Drk_Guy> The french guy's fix worked out just fine
[04:04] <gtroy> Grizzil: I'd hit the forums until your system is configured
[04:04] <peepsalot> i would remove firefox and reinstall, but I don't want to lose all the setting
[04:04] <Drk_Guy> Only some retries were needed
[04:05] <peepsalot> lee_, how would I know what it should point to?
[04:05] <Drk_Guy> Peepsalot, access to your .firefox folder and back-up everything there
[04:05] <Grizzil> am I in the good channel for beginner help ?
[04:05] <ryushe> peepsalot > apt-get remove <packagename> does not remove settings, that's what dpkg --purge <packagename> does
[04:05] <crdlb> peepsalot, have you rebooted?
[04:05] <lee_> you can read the script peepsalot
[04:05] <purpzey> Grizzil: Yes.
[04:05] <peepsalot> crdlb, i have rebooted dozens of times, this has been a problem for a while
[04:06] <Grizzil> never use irc before
[04:06] <Grizzil> quelqun parle francais ?
[04:06] <peepsalot> /usr/bin/firefox is a link to /opt/firefox/firefox
[04:06] <gtroy> !francais
[04:06] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[04:06] <purpzey> !fr
[04:07] <lee_> peepsalot apt-get firefox is probably installed in /usr/lib/firefox
[04:07] <Grizzil> tanks
[04:07] <Drk_Guy> !francais > Grizzil
[04:07] <Grizzil> yes
[04:07] <Drk_Guy> lee_, removing Ffox takes this command: sudo apt-get remove firefox
[04:07] <lee_> peepsalot check if /usr/lib/firefox/ exists and fix the link

[04:11] <purpzey> j1tters: Yes, Sony FSN-990
[04:12] <nergar> how do i translate /dev/hdb7 to hd0,0 ???
[04:12] <peepsalot> j1tters, System76 sells laptops preinstalled with ubuntu
[04:12] <crimsun> that's likely hd1,6
[04:12] <j1tters> no clue system 76
[04:12] <j1tters> ahh\
[04:12] <j1tters> ok thanks
[04:12] <kitche> or you can just buy a dell

[04:13] <peepsalot> kitche, oh yeah, forgot about the dell deal.  are they already available though?
[04:13] <kitche> peepsalot: yep

[04:16] <ryushe> ok, I installed Ubuntu on second HD (SATA disk), with WinXP active on first disk (IDE). After install rebooted, system returned no OS present. Inserted Ubuntu CD and booted from first harddisk, which gave me the correct Grub. Any ideas on how to fix this?
[04:18] <tcleval> hey guys i am having some problems with /etc/init.d/checkfs.sh... sometimes when i boot i get some errors from fsck, but i checked the fs and it is all ok, so it seems to be some kind of mistake on grub or fsck or maybe checkfs.. can you guys please help me?
[04:19] <bryan> hello
[04:19] <kitche> !hi | bryan
[04:19] <ubotu> bryan: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:19] <Abelfaec> So I am playing with the idea of installing a wireless INTRANET at my home. Among other things it would have an fileserver as well as HTTP. How realistic am I being with this and what type of workload should I look forward to?
[04:19] <ryushe> guess that means that either no one knows or you're all simply ignoring me ;)
[04:19] <salvos> new to ubuntu:  upgraded the kernal last night through the update manager, after grub the machine dies.  If I enter grub and go to the last kernal its fine.  The newest kernal and kernal (recovery mode) won't work.  How do I fix
[04:20] <Nubbie> Abelfaec: it's easy.
[04:20] <tonsofpcs> anyone know of a scp/sftp utility with a gui that supports resuming files?
[04:20] <kitche> salvos: use the older kernel for now
[04:20] <mrsempai> can someone help me? mi usb mouse doesnt work... running on ubuntu 7.04
[04:20] <Nubbie> Abelfaec: set up proftp and apache/php.
[04:20] <nikosapi> Hello, I deleted the root user account and I would like to add it back. I've booted off a live cd and am about to do it. Any pointers, recommendations?
[04:20] <MISTERTibbs> ryushe: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=179902
[04:21] <purpzey> kitche: I haven't made that update yet on my laptop, should I avoid it, that's not the first person I've seen have problems with it.
[04:21] <MISTERTibbs> yo byran
[04:21] <tcleval> my checkfs --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23200/  my fstab --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23201/   please!!! help!!!
[04:21] <purpzey> kitche: Desktop*....my laptop it seemed to work with ease.
[04:21] <kitche> purpzey: well many people have troubles with the new kernel it's always like this usually they get fixed usually within two days
[04:21] <Abelfaec> I am familiar with the apache stuff as well as the ftp. The thing I am concerned with is configuring the access point. DNS server needed?
[04:22] <purpzey> kitche: So, should I hold off on that update for a few days?
[04:22] <kitche> purpzey: I would say yes
[04:22] <purpzey> kitche: Thanks.
[04:22] <MISTERTibbs> nikosapi: seriously doubt you actually DELETED root.  Don't think ubuntu would even boot otherwise.  is it possible you only disabled it???
[04:22] <bryan> Any one from Atlanta here?
[04:22] <kitche> Abelfaec: dns is need only if you want it or want to use it as a cache server
[04:22] <ryushe> MISTERTibbs > found those thanks, but the 3 links detailing SATA/IDE disks all assume at least you can boot back into Ubuntu with Grub, and also assume SATA is primary disk (with Ubuntu) and the IDE is secondary (with Windows). I got the reverse. An IDE as primary and a SATA as secondary. Now I'm thinking, might this simply be an issue with Grub being in the MBR of the wrong disk?\
[04:23] <lolo2> does anyone know of any linux software that will recover deleted FAT files?
[04:23] <Nubbie> Abelfaec: ohh you need to make your computer an access point? why not just get a cheapo wireless router.
[04:23] <Nubbie> lolo2: fat files are not journalled, so good luck.
[04:24] <lolo2> Nubbie: but they are readible in linux...
[04:24] <MISTERTibbs> ryushe: I'm not guru, but I believe you id'd the issue correctly.  When I set up my single disk, dual boot, that was the problem.  Had to clean install xp, then did ubuntu.  100% perfect thereafter.
[04:24] <Nubbie> lolo2: recover..... as in you deleted them accidentally?
[04:24] <lolo2> yes
[04:24] <Nubbie> lolo2: i don't think you're going to be able to do anything about that.
[04:25] <peepsalot> so what is the opt folder supposed to be for?
[04:25] <ryushe> MISTERTibbs > yeah, known issue with Linux in general. If you want dualboot, better off installing Windows first, Linux second on same drive or different drives for that matter
[04:25] <ryushe> ;)
[04:25] <kitche> peepsalot: for stuff not in the system
[04:25] <Nubbie> peepsalot: some distros use it to install stuff into.
[04:25] <lolo2> Nubbie: but windows has tons of tools to do that...
[04:25] <kitche> peepsalot: it's like /usr/local/
[04:25] <ryushe> anyways, off to reboot and see if I can get this fixed
[04:25] <kitche> peepsalot: you can think of /opt as optional since that's where it gets it /opt from
[04:25] <tcleval> nobody listen to me :-(
[04:25] <ryushe> o/
[04:26] <Nubbie> lolo2: perhaps windows doesn't actually delete a file when you tell it to if thats the case.
[04:26] <MISTERTibbs_> NO JOKE!! I have seen the workaround for ubuntu in the first boot position.  it aint' pretty.  still, YOUR setup sounds ideal with the exception of the boot failure.  could it be simply reverse the wires and then reboot??
[04:26] <lolo2> Nubbie: I know, all it does it removes the info in the Fat table
[04:27] <Nubbie> lolo2: oooh k maybe we can go somewhere then...
[04:27] <malkir> Hey, is anyone around that can give me any adice with xserver?

[04:27] <ubotu> malkir: 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?
[04:28] <tcleval> my checkfs --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23200/  my fstab --> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23201/   please!!! help!!! i am having checkfs problems at boot time
[04:28] <malkir> When setting up xserver - I get an error saying that it failed, looking through my logs it seems to me that its not reading my PCI Express card
[04:29] <malkir> i used lspci | grep PCI to find if my card was even on the list
[04:29] <kitche> time to ignore join and parts
[04:30] <Lilacor> netsplit
[04:30] <Pelo> damn I miss all the fun
[04:30] <crdlb> it's cool being on the other side of a netsplit
[04:31] <crdlb> #ubuntu with ~100 people
[04:31] <malkir> (WW) ATI: PCI in slot 1:0:0 could not be detected!
[04:31] <lolo2> wow look at them come
[04:31] <malkir> (WW) ATI: PCI in slot 1:0:1 could not be detected!
[04:31] <nikosapi> MISTERTibbs: I just fixed it, and yes you can delete the root account and it will still work perfectly fine except you can't do any admin stuff.
[04:32] <Pelo> malkir, give it a couple of minutes for the network to settle down
[04:32] <MISTERTibbs> nice going Niko.
[04:32] <malkir> alright, thanks :)
[04:32] <malkir> I'm on commandline irc so forgive me :)
[04:33] <Pelo> malkir, that's ok , go ahead now , what is the issue
[04:33] <nikosapi> MISTERTibbs: That's what happens when you're really tired and you get paranoid about security ;-)
[04:33] <rj|pb> hey there. is there a mirror to the archive server de.archive.ubuntu.com? it looks like this server is n/a atm
[04:33] <Pelo> IcemanV9, but you never know when ppl yo0u are talking to leave
[04:33] <AmyRose> Why is my hard drive /dev/hda again after the last kernel update?
[04:33] <bryan> what just happened?  Why so many connection problems?
[04:33] <Joshooa> When I have my desktop set up as a cube, is there a way to rotate it without having to drag a window?
[04:33] <malkir> My xserver is giving me blue screen error, and can't detect my video card
[04:33] <IcemanV9> Pelo: tab will give me a hint ;)
[04:33] <Pelo> AmyRose, too many ppl were complaying
[04:33] <kitche> !netsplit | bryan
[04:33] <ubotu> bryan: netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[04:33] <Jordan_U> rj|pb, You could go to the US site
[04:34] <MISTERTibbs> NIKO: I do understand.  Many a decision that looked go at 000early has come back to bite my butt.
[04:34] <AmyRose> Pelo: Ah... people are whiners :P
[04:34] <malkir> Except I know my video card is supported, I just can't find what the PCI-Express slot is names
[04:34] <malkir> (WW) ATI: PCI in slot 1:0:0 could not be detected!
[04:34] <bryan> Thank you
[04:34] <ryushe> back, and booted into the ubuntu install. how do I find where grub is installed? ie. on which disk if I have 2 ?
[04:34] <malkir> (WW) ATI: PCI in slot 1:0:1 could not be detected!
[04:34] <Jordan_U> Joshooa, Yes, ctrl+alt+ mouse drag or arrow keys
[04:34] <malkir> I've updated to latest ubuntu, latest xserver
[04:34] <Joshooa> Jordan_U: I've tried that, it doesn't do anything
[04:34] <Pelo> malkir, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[04:35] <malkir> did it
[04:35] <Joshooa> Jordan_U: Are you talking about Beryl though, cause I'm not using that
[04:35] <malkir> It knows the name of my card, etc
[04:35] <kitche> AmyRose: well it confused many probably
[04:35] <Jordan_U> Joshooa, Beryl or Compiz
[04:35] <Pelo> malkir, reboot with the previous kernel see if it works
[04:35] <malkir> but when I lspci | grep PCI
[04:35] <IcemanV9> needs to find a spare PC on the curb ... so i can install feisty server ... hope feisty server is good
[04:35] <NoM> Someone tell me why my internet browser ALWAYS crashes after I start a flash applet and try to go to another page. And DONT give ma a wiki, they are crap and dont help me.
[04:35] <NoM> !flash
[04:35] <rj|pb> Jordan_U where do i find the mirror urls?
[04:35] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[04:35] <malkir> Reboot with previous kernel = normal reboot?
[04:36] <NoM> !gnash

[04:36] <ubotu> rj|pb: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[04:36] <Pelo> NoM, make sure you have the latest flash,  it's a known issue
[04:36] <Joshooa> Jordan_U: I am on Compiz, can't get the keyboard thing to work, have to drag a window or click the thing on the bottom right
[04:36] <rj|pb> thx
[04:36] <Jordan_U> NoM, Adobe doesn't give a *^&# about Linux so they make a horrible linux flash plugin

[04:37] <por_fueg2> wheeeee!
[04:37] <Pelo> networks splits are fun in a chat channel not in a support on
[04:37] <ryushe> netsplit ftl
[04:37] <malkir> Sigh, can we get a less cluttered room for quicky advice :)
[04:37] <Jordan_U> malkir, Yes, #ubuntu-classroom
[04:38] <Pelo> malkir,  it will be subject to netsplit as well
[04:38] <Jordan_U> malkir, Exept for the faster advice part... usually you have to wait a while *because* there are fewer people
[04:38] <KromiX> any1 know of a .m3u playlist creator for Linux?
[04:38] <por_fueg2> man, the net's going crazy tonight
[04:39] <malkir> Jordan_U, thanks :)
[04:39] <por_fueg2> !nick por_fueg0
[04:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nick por_fueg0 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:39] <kitche> Pelo: I have a script that does it when a netsplit happens
[04:39] <Pelo> KromiX, do a keyword search in synaptic for m3u
[04:39] <KromiX> trying now :-)
[04:39] <Pelo> kitche, I'll trade you for my /msg blooking script
[04:39] <MISTERTibbs> ryushe: find /boot/grub/stage1 will give you the folder
[04:40] <fryguy> anybody have any ideas why my mouse keeps freezing during normal usage?  My mouse is frozen right now, but keyboard still works.  Logitech mouse, pretty standard usb
[04:40] <MISTERTibbs> fryguy: clean off the mouse ball
[04:40] <fryguy> it's optical
[04:40] <malkir> fry, flash firmware
[04:40] <MISTERTibbs> DOH!
[04:40] <Pelo> fryguy, I'm guessing a usb issue,  check the forum , I'm sure you're not the only one
[04:41] <m1r> wlan problem with DWL-G122 rev C1 3.00
[04:41] <bacongrease> exit
[04:41] <bacongrease> quit
[04:41] <malkir> Pelo, reboot did nothing - same error
[04:41] <fryguy> pelo: been looking around, haven't found too much useful.  Haven't found a single other person yet where just mouse freezes and not keyboard/X
[04:41] <IcemanV9> fryguy: use a different usb port or unplug and plug back in
[04:41] <fryguy> plug/unplug doesn't work
[04:41] <Pelo> malkir,  did you reboot the previous kernel ? or the new one ?
[04:41] <fryguy> i guess I can try different port
[04:41] <por_fueg2> try a new mouse ?
[04:41] <malkir> Pelo, I'm not sure how to reboot to a prev. kernel
[04:41] <windstorm_> fryguy, how about re-install the drivers
[04:42] <fryguy> which drivers?  I'm under the assumption that it's part of the Xorg package
[04:42] <IcemanV9> fryguy: it had happened to me before (logitech usb mouse)
[04:42] <Pelo> malkir,  you have this problem since the last kernel update ?   when you boot enter the grub menu and select the previous version of the kernel from the list provided,  should be the 3rd item down
[04:42] <[Neurotic] > I've installed ubuntu-server 7.04 into my vmware 6 workstation, and whenever I power it on, I get a popup saying 'The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system'.  Does anyone know what I've done wrong?
[04:43] <IcemanV9> fryguy: i just used a different port (problem resolved)
[04:43] <windstorm_> lsusb and see if there is any information about the mouse
[04:43] <betttong> hi folks someone is asking me for linux localised for bangalore, is there an intro to ubuntu page in a bangalore flavour? anything which has info about which software is localised for them would be handy.
[04:44] <g9sh> anyone here familiar with virtualbox? I'm working with ubuntu  feisty. I've got a working virtual machine of longhorn working  fine, I'm just having some problems getting it to recognize any  network interfaces. I followed the static networking guide in  virtualbox docs with no luck. Any suggestions?
[04:44] <Pelo> betttong,check in menu > system > prefs > language support see if the language is mentionned in the list,  if it is available it can be selected for install with f2 key from the installation boot menu
[04:44] <dinkle> hey all amarok does not transfer some of my music to my ipod how come?
[04:44] <Pelo> g9sh,  #vb
[04:45] <Kavey> i'm trying to install configure bind on ubuntu 6.06 and getting nowhere
[04:45] <betttong> ok will check tonight thanks
[04:45] <g9sh> Pelo: Ah thanks, i was wondering where their chan was
[04:45] <cactus> when I try to install programs some of them won't configure because of dependency problems. What does this mean?
[04:45] <Kavey> as far as i can tell all the settings look correct, but when i query the server, the domain is not found
[04:45] <Pelo> cactus,  means you need to install the dependency first
[04:45] <g9sh> Pelo: ehh that's visual basic
[04:45] <cactus> how do I find out what it is?
[04:46] <Pelo> g9sh, try #vbox
[04:46] <kitche> Kavey: did you add the dns to /etc/resolv.conf to see if you can whois the domain
[04:46] <Pelo> g9sh,  or better yet check on their site I am sure it is mentionned somewhere
[04:46] <g9sh> Pelo: thanks!
[04:46] <Kavey> kitche: even when i query the server directly host my.domain.com localhost it returns that it can't find domain
[04:46] <Jordan_U> cactus, You almost never have to compile from source, what are you trying to install?
[04:47] <cactus> automatix
[04:47] <malkir> Pelo, there was no option to select my kernel - text pops up immediately and very quickly, then the Ubuntu loading screen comes on, then shell
[04:47] <Pelo> cactus,   automatix is an abomination,  if you use it you will burn
[04:47] <kitche> Kavey: can you pastebin your zone files and the wan ip for your machine?
[04:48] <nster> Can anyone help me get fglrx back on the new kernel it seems to have reverted back to mesa drivers ( I have ATI) do i need to install the drivers all over again?
[04:48] <crdlb> nster, did you use envy or something?
[04:48] <nster> no
[04:48] <nster> manually
[04:48] <ryushe> !nvidia
[04:48] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:48] <Pelo> malkir,  can you boot recovery mode ?
[04:48] <cactus> I like automatix. I tried it once.
[04:48] <Jordan_U> nster, If you installed them from Ati.com then yes
[04:48] <malkir> Pelo, how do I do that?
[04:48] <nster> ah ok , thanks
[04:48] <cables> cactus, it can break your system badly. Don't use it.
[04:48] <master5o1> good morning
[04:48] <Pelo> sigh
[04:49] <cactus> okay, thanks.
[04:49] <Pelo> malkir, boot thelive cd and come back here
[04:49] <Jordan_U> nster, Remove the one's from ATI.com, install the ones from the repos ( restricted driver manager )
[04:49] <malkir> brb
[04:49] <kitche> Kavey: and I will look at your configs and such
[04:49] <rollerskatejamms> How can I make beagle index recursively? I don't want to have to set every single folder in my home directory.
[04:50] <cables> rollerskatejamms, you don't have to, it should automatically search every subfolder in your home directory.
[04:50] <jacoblyle1> how can I copy the contents of one directory to another at the command line?
[04:50] <rollerskatejamms> cables, then why cant it find a file that ive had in /home/zach/documents/foo/ that I just found manually, thats been there for weeks
[04:50] <PanzerMKZ> cp
[04:50] <PanzerMKZ> is the copy command
[04:50] <por_fueg0> jacoblyle1: man cp
[04:50] <Pelo> jacoblyle1,   cp /source/*  /destination/
[04:50] <kitche> rollerskatejamms: because it hasn't updated?
[04:50] <cables> rollerskatejamms, that's a different issue.
[04:51] <jacoblyle1> ah, is the * a wildcard?
[04:51] <Jordan_U> jach, cp -r /folder/to/copy /destination/
[04:51] <cables> Couldn't you use cp -r?
[04:51] <cables> Jordan_U, ah, you beat me :)
[04:51] <rollerskatejamms> cables, kitche Ah it did find it, I just didn't realize beagle had multiple pages of results
[04:51] <cables> rollerskatejamms, ok
[04:51] <jacoblyle1> thanks Jordan, I was wondering what "copy recursively" meant in the man page
[04:51] <jacoblyle1> does it mean subdirectories?
[04:52] <cables> yep
[04:52] <Jordan_U> jacoblyle1, Yes
[04:52] <jacoblyle1> thanks
[04:52] <tonsofpcs> anyone know how I can make the clock in gnome be binary leds like those little clocks they sell?
[04:53] <Squirrely_Wrath> Okay y'all, got a question.  My friend is starting up a pc repair company.  He wants to do software related fixes remotely.  Is there a way to remotely control someone else's computer in linux? ( With their permission of course )
[04:53] <PurpleSea> anyone know where i can find some movie streams?
[04:53] <Jordan_U> tonsofpcs, I think that gdesklets has a binary clock
[04:53] <Pelo> Squirrely_Wrath, try vnc
[04:53] <EADG_> Squirrely_Wrath: ssh
[04:53] <Pelo> or vcn
[04:53] <tonsofpcs> cool, thanks
[04:53] <Kavey> kitche: http://pastebin.ca/521038
[04:53] <cables> Squirrely_Wrath, yep, but the computer to be controlled will need to have its router configured properly.
[04:54] <Redneck|Laptop> ok, so do I want the beef pasta hamburger helper or the beef stroganoff?
[04:54] <rollerskatejamms> Is there a yakuake  equivalent for gnome? (yes I know yakuake works on gnome)
[04:54] <cables> rollerskatejamms, there is, but I'm blanking
[04:54] <WillLuongo> When I use apt-get upgrade it tells me: The following packages have been kept back:
[04:54] <WillLuongo>   linux-image-server linux-server
[04:54] <cables> rollerskatejamms, tilda
[04:54] <Pelo> rollerskatejamms, what does uakuake do ?
[04:54] <Kickersny> how can I drop from the graphical boot screen to the old text-based one?
[04:54] <WillLuongo> How do I get it to upgrade them as well?
[04:54] <rollerskatejamms> Pelo, Ever played quake?
[04:54] <rollerskatejamms> Pelo, It lets you use a terminal, quake style
[04:54] <PurpleSea> ctrl alt f1 kickesrny
[04:54] <cables> Kickersny, you want to disable the boot screen permanently, or temporarily?
[04:54] <Squirrely_Wrath> k, thanx.
[04:54] <fisho> Kickersny try crt alt F1
[04:54] <Kickersny> cables, temporarily
[04:55] <Pelo> rollerskatejamms, no but cables answered your qustion
[04:55] <IcemanV9> nster: you don't have to reinstall fglrx (it happened to me recently when my kernel got upgraded) just simply type 'sudo aticonfig --overlay-type=Xv' in the terminal and reboot
[04:55] <por_fueg0> wheeeee
[04:55] <rollerskatejamms> whats the deal with all the server splits tonight
[04:55] <kitche> Kavey: your zone file should be in /var/named and the file should be just the filename of the zone file
[04:55] <Kickersny> I just want to see what it's pausing on
[04:55] <cables> Kickersny, in the Grub menu, select the default kernel and hit E. Go to the kernel line and it E again. Then remove "quiet" from the line and hit enter. Then hit B to boot.
[04:55] <WillLuongo> Can anyone help me force apt-get to update packages that have been held back?
[04:55] <binarydigit> anyone know how to get rid of localhost -- MARK --
[04:55] <binarydigit>  in /var/log/messages
[04:56] <binarydigit> it appears like every 20 minutes
[04:56] <Kickersny> cables, thanks
[04:56] <DARKGuy> Hey, how can I check if a command executed without errors, and act accordingly (do something if there was an error and do something if there wasn't) in a bash script?
[04:56] <crdlb> WillLuongo, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade ?
[04:56] <fisho> can Ubuntu be clean installed over ftp ?

[04:56] <crabgrass> hey all, im looking for a photo-managment program that will let me EASILY tag photos, somewhat like f-spot, but i'd rather have a text box where i can add them. any ideas?
[04:56] <WillLuongo> crdlb: thank you! that worked
[04:57] <fisho> thanks
[04:57] <Pelo> kevinOman, it needs to be unmounted,   if it,s your working hdd you'll need to use the live cd
[04:57] <PurpleSea> any idea guys where i can find some movie streams
[04:57] <malkir> Pelo, xserver didn't work on live cd either - it freaked out and threw words all over the screen
[04:57] <Pelo> PurpleSea,  not in this channel
[04:58] <Jordan_U> malkir, What kind of GFX card?
[04:58] <Pelo> malkir, have you ever had ubuntu working onthis computer ?
[04:58] <Kavey> kitche: under named.conf.options it has directory "/var/cache/bind/";
[04:58] <malkir> Pelo, I'm running an ATI Radeon x850 Platinum Edition
[04:58] <Kavey> kitche: that's the default as I did not change that
[04:58] <malkir> Which is supported, according to xserver
[04:58] <Kickersny> cables, after I hit "e" on the default kernel, my "kernel" line has a root="{snip}" section that I believe is from an old hibernation attempt; can I remove that?
[04:58] <kitche> Kavey: ok but you don't need the path in for file just the filename
[04:58] <cables> Damn
[04:58] <kevinOman> pelo, im running the live cd now, i start gparted and after setting the size and clicking apply it says operation could not be done
[04:58] <cables> I missed someone's message just now
[04:58] <cables> could they re-send it?
[04:58] <Pelo> malkir, maybe one ofthe others can help you on this,  ati / nvidia cards realy harenT' my thing
[04:58] <Scunizi> crabgrass, jBrout or Gwenview.  If you use jBrout you'll need to compile the latest version.  Older versions store tagged data in it's own database not the pics themselves.
[04:59] <Kickersny> cables, mine
[04:59] <Kickersny> cables, after I hit "e" on the default kernel, my "kernel" line has a root="{snip}" section that I believe is from an old hibernation attempt; can I remove that?
[04:59] <malkir> Pelo, thanks for the help :)
[04:59] <Jordan_U> malkir, You can install fglrx from the liveCD to get to the GUI, or install using the alternate CD then install fglrx
[04:59] <jtole> hey guys
[04:59] <cables> Kickersny, I'm not sure
[04:59] <Pie-rate> after kernel upgrade, (EE) NVIDIA(0): Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module!
[04:59] <Pie-rate> help
[04:59] <jtole> if anyone could help me with a question, I am having a unknown problem with apt-get trying to remove a package, I added the -f on this one after it failed without it => http://rafb.net/p/b7DqUZ54.html
[04:59] <Kickersny> cables, thanks
[04:59] <kitche> Kavey: I would let you look at my files but they are on my windows machine which my brother is on right now
[04:59] <Pelo> kevinOman, can you upload a screenshot of gparted for the hdd you are trying to work on so I know what you are trying to acheive
[04:59] <Pie-rate> I'm using the drivers from the restricted drivers module
[04:59] <crabgrass> Scunizi: how are the tags stored, comment field?
[04:59] <jtole> anyone who knows where I might go on this one I would appreciate it
[04:59] <rollerskatejamms> Wow, tilda is *almost* as nice as yakuake, after a bit of configuration.
[05:00] <cheeseboy> what just happened??
[05:00] <Pie-rate> this shouldn't happen with the drivers from the restricted drivers module
[05:00] <Pie-rate> err, manager
[05:00] <Pie-rate> whatever
[05:00] <kevinOman> pelo yes where would you like the screenshot
[05:00] <malkir> Jordan_U: So I can pop in my alternate CD and find gflrx? Happen to know where its located?
[05:00] <Kavey> kitche: doesn't seem to make a difference if i put the path or not
[05:00] <Scunizi> I know Gwenview uses the standard fields as well as.. (I can't remember the 4 letter acronym)
[05:00] <Kickersny> cables, does that edit the GRUB menu permanently?
[05:00] <Pelo> kevinOman, upload it to imageshack or something
[05:00] <crabgrass> Scunizi: also, would you reccomend one over the other?
[05:00] <cables> Kickersny, no, but if you want to do that I can walk you through that as well.
[05:00] <Jordan_U> malkir, No, it is not on the alternate CD, you have to install it from the repos
[05:00] <andreas_> Hi. I just installed pdftk but cannot seem to get the graphic option shown in ubuntuguide
[05:00] <kevinOman> pelo ok brb
[05:00] <Scunizi> crabgrass, It's been a while but I think Gwenview is easier.
[05:00] <Kickersny> cables, no, I was hoping it wouldn't :)
[05:01] <peepsalot> what the heck happened to irc?
[05:01] <cables> !netsplit
[05:01] <ubotu> netsplit is when two IRC servers of the same network (like Freenode) disconnect from each other, so users on one server stop seeing users on the other. If this is happening now, just relax and enjoy the show. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
[05:01] <Scunizi> crabgrass, hang on and I'll test.. I've got both loaded.
[05:01] <cables> that would be my guess
[05:01] <crabgrass> Scunizi: awesome, thanks
[05:01] <tcleval> how can i make my system check the filesystem on the next boot?
[05:01] <malkir> Jordan_U: Repos? I'm not familiar. I have 3 disks - an old Ubunu Install/Live combination, and the most recent 'alternate' and i just threw the alternate image on a cd a minute ago
[05:01] <Zoiks> soooo... who wants to solve my impossible to solve ipod mounting issue
[05:01] <Pie-rate> FATAL: Error running install command for nvidia.
[05:01] <Pelo> tcleval, man fsck
[05:02] <crabgrass> Scunizi: ooo, can i run gewnview without kde as my desktop?
[05:02] <andreas_> Have anyone tried following http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_pull_apart_and_combine_pdf_files
[05:02] <tcleval> on the next boot!!!
[05:02] <Pelo> Zoiks,  I am sure there is something about this in the forum
[05:02] <PurpleSea> how can i get the sound to work better on 7.04 i got it to make sound so far with a fix i found but sometimes it gets scratchy
[05:02] <Scunizi> crabgrass, yes.. It'll load any dependancies it needs.. I run gnome and sometimes kde.. I like both.
[05:02] <Pelo> tcleval, there is an option to set in fsck that will do that,   manpage it so you know which option to use
[05:02] <tcleval> Pelo, i dont wanna check it now with fsck, but on the next boot.. so it seems something related to checkfs
[05:02] <crabgrass> oh, another question, how can i set up alises for commands? EX: i want to have 'rtfm' do the same thing as 'man'
[05:02] <Pie-rate> i really want to be able to get into GNOME, can someone please help fix nvidia? it broke after kernel was updated
[05:02] <Jordan_U> malkir, The repositories ( repos ) are the online source for installing applications ( where apt-get / synaptic grabs them from )
[05:03] <cables> Pie-rate, no problem
[05:03] <cables> Pie-rate, can you get into a terminal?
[05:03] <crabgrass> Scunizi: excellent; i'm using xfce but i believe i have some kde components installed
[05:03] <Pie-rate> cables: i'm in one, using irc in a terminal
[05:03] <malkir> Jordan_U: I've run apt-get update and distro-upgrade
[05:03] <cables> Pie-rate, okay, did you hit ctrl-alt-f1 or something?
[05:03] <Drk_Guy> Hy!
[05:03] <Jordan_U> Pie-rate, "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xrog" choose "nv" as the driver
[05:03] <Kickersny> cables, can you give me your "root" line off your grub list?
[05:03] <cables> Jordan_U, no!
[05:03] <Drk_Guy> How can i make a symlink from the terminal????
[05:04] <cables> Drk_Guy, calm down and ask again with one ?
[05:04] <Jordan_U> cables, No?
[05:04] <kevinOman> pelo http://imageshack.us] [img=http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7262/screenshotbw0.png] [/url] 
[05:04] <sangrelinux> hi, when i mount my external drive, it mounts read only, and i do not have permission to access the files.  How do i change this?
[05:04] <Pie-rate> cables: X had an error loading the nvidia module, it says FATAL: Error running install command on nvidia
[05:04] <cables> Jordan_U, nope, easier way
[05:04] <Drk_Guy> Clam down?
[05:04] <cables> Drk_Guy, "man ln"
[05:04] <kevinOman> pelo one sec that didnt work
[05:04] <Pelo> kevinOman,  give me a minute to pull it up
[05:04] <Drk_Guy> Ty!
[05:04] <Pie-rate> cables: i reinstalled nvidia-glx
[05:04] <Jordan_U> cables, What? I would say that editing xorg.conf manually is harder
[05:04] <kevinOman> http://imageshack.us] [img=http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7262/screenshotbw0.png
[05:04] <crabgrass> Jordan_U: not really
[05:05] <Pelo> kevinOman,  you can copy the rigth link from the bottom of the imageshack page
[05:05] <malkir> Jordan_U: I have the crashlog at http://www.uberdan.com/hack/Xorg.0.log
[05:05] <kevinOman> hmm
[05:05] <cables> Jordan_U, have you ever tried the dpkg-reconfigure thing? It asked me around 20 questions when I did it... maybe I missed part of the command.
[05:05] <Pie-rate> cables it still doesn't work
[05:05] <cables> Pie-rate, are you in recovery mode?
[05:05] <kevinOman> http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/7262/screenshotbw0.png
[05:05] <Jordan_U> cables, Not with the -phigh switch :)
[05:05] <cables> Pie-rate, or did you hit ctrl-alt-f1 after you got the error?
[05:05] <Pie-rate> cables: yes, i did
[05:05] <cables> Jordan_U, ok, I guess he could use that :)
[05:05] <Pelo> kevinOman,  ok so you want to extend  sda3 into the unallocated space to the right ?
[05:05] <cables> Jordan_U, in that case, why don't you walk him through.
[05:06] <cables> Pie-rate, Jordan_U will help you.
[05:06] <saddeh> hi all, how to remove the feature of gnome panels that they are alwayson top, even on top of fullscreen applications?
[05:06] <kevinOman> pelo nope I want to create that unallocated space
[05:06] <Jordan_U> Pie-rate, run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xrog" choose "nv" as the driver
[05:06] <cables> Jordan_U, NO!
[05:06] <kevinOman> pelo im trying to downsize
[05:06] <cables> Pie-rate, don't do that
[05:06] <cables> Jordan_U, you forgot the -phigh!
[05:06] <Pie-rate> cables: for some reason after the kernel upgrade it didn't upgrade linux-restricted-modules
[05:06] <Pelo> kevinOman, ok ,  make sure that sda3 is unmounted
[05:06] <crabgrass> Scunizi: hmm, seems like images with bad exif tags crash jbrout... would that be fixed if i compiled from source?
[05:06] <Jordan_U> cables, sorry :)
[05:06] <kevinOman> pelo it is
[05:07] <cables> Jordan_U, hold on, I think I can handle this now :)
[05:07] <Pelo> kevinOman, and applying gives you an error msg ? whcih one ?
[05:07] <cables> Pie-rate, do this: sudo aptitude install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[05:07] <cables> Pie-rate, the ` is the thing below the ~, it's not a quote.
[05:07] <Pie-rate> cables: they're installing now, i'm pretty sure they'll work
[05:07] <Scunizi> crabgrass, probably... jBrout I think is the better option.. I haven't figured a way to do the tags in Gwenview..
[05:07] <malkir_> Jordan_U: gflrx did nothing when I tried to run it - is there a command to install it
[05:07] <saddeh> hi all, how to remove the feature of gnome panels that they are alwayson top, even on top of fullscreen applications?
[05:07] <cables> !repeat | saddeh
[05:07] <ubotu> saddeh: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[05:08] <kevinOman> pelo check filesystem on /sda3 for errors and if possible fix them
[05:08] <dinkle> guys amarok says files are already on my ipod but i can't see them. can anyone help?
[05:08] <saddeh> k
[05:08] <Pie-rate> cables: the project managers need to make sure their critical security updates don't fuck up the video drivers and hose the system
[05:08] <Pelo> kevinOman,  you,ll have to run fsck
[05:08] <dinkle> i reinstalled both amarok and gtkpod
[05:08] <cables> Pie-rate, are you using generic? If so, do this: sudo aptitude install linux-generic and it'll keep everything updated automatically
[05:08] <Scunizi> crabgrass, The version of fBrout I have is 0.2.114
[05:08] <einar_> why cant i watch tv on ubuntu?
[05:08] <kevinOman> pelo do i do that from terminal?
[05:08] <cables> Pie-rate, they don't, it's just that some people have messed up package configurations and don't have the metapackage to update everything installed.
[05:08] <SpudDogg> Can someone help me out with a problem that is really bugging me?  Here goes:  I just got an LCD monitor and all is well, including the login screen, but once I'm logged in the screen gets a little blurry.  In a few seconds I get used to it, but I would rather have it crystal clear like the login screen.  Any suggestions?
[05:08] <Pelo> kevinOman, I am not very well versed in that command ,  check the manpage for more info,  and yes from the command line
[05:08] <kevinOman> ok
[05:08] <crabgrass> Scunizi: same here, did you compile from source?
[05:09] <Pie-rate> cables: i used the restricted drivers manager
[05:09] <Xaero_Vincent> Anyone here try following the seamless virtualization wiki?
[05:09] <Drk_Guy> I need help on the arguments of the "man ln" command, can anyone help me???
[05:09] <Pie-rate> cables: it didn't install the metapackage
[05:09] <cables> Pie-rate, still, something seems to have gotten messed up. The metapackage should be installed even if you don't install the drivers.
[05:09] <Pie-rate> cables: so they need to fix the restricted drivers manager
[05:09] <Zoiks> Pelo: what about it in the forum?
[05:09] <Jordan_U> malkir, "fglrx" You need to enable universe then install "xorg-driver-fglrx" then run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh" and choose "fglrx" as the driver
[05:09] <Scunizi> crabgrass, no.. I just saw they have a repo for Ubuntu.. and jBrout does IPTC tagging as well as the other.
[05:09] <cables> Pie-rate, no they don't, it's not an issue in that, it's in something else.
[05:10] <Pie-rate> cables: well i didn't remove it
[05:10] <crabgrass> Scunizi: alright, i can't seem to get past that error, ill try gwenview
[05:10] <cables> Pie-rate, you may well have accidentally when doing something else. Are you using generic? If so, you can make sure everything stays updated by doing < sudo aptitude install linux-generic >
[05:10] <Pelo> Zoiks,  check in the forum for threads from other ppl having dificulsties mounting their ipods and how they solved the problem
[05:10] <Pie-rate> cables: yes i am and i just did that, thank you
[05:10] <Scunizi> crabgrass, did you use the repo on the jBrout site?
[05:10] <Zoiks> pelo, i have done all that
[05:10] <Zoiks> it does not work
[05:10] <Pie-rate> cables: it might've been an issue with upgrading to feisty or something, i didn't do a clean install
[05:11] <Drk_Guy> I need help on the arguments of the "man ln" command, can anyone help me???
[05:11] <cables> Pie-rate, that could be it... upgrades are one thing that could be fixed up a little.
[05:11] <cables> Drk_Guy, sure, I can help.
[05:11] <Pie-rate> cables: and i may've messed with something waaaaay back when i was using edgy
[05:11] <cables> Drk_Guy, but please use only ONE question mark!
[05:11] <Drk_Guy> I need to make a symlink
[05:11] <Drk_Guy> Ok Cables
[05:11] <Pie-rate> cables: thanks for your help, i ctrl+alt+f7 now
[05:12] <Pelo> Drk_Guy,  ln -s  /source /destination
[05:12] <Xaero_Vincent> anyone use this: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SeamlessVirtualization ????
[05:12] <cables> Drk_Guy, ln -s /original/path /link/path
[05:12] <kevinOman> can some one give me an example of the fsck command
[05:12] <sangrelinux> my external drive automounts read only, how do i mount it rw?  Do i have to umount it first?
[05:12] <cables> Aghhhh!!! too many question marks!
[05:12] <Drk_Guy> Ok, thanks to cables and Pelo
[05:12] <kevinOman> i read the man page its not very easy to understand
[05:12] <cables> sangrelinux, what fs is it?
[05:13] <Jordan_U> sangrelinux, Is it NTFS?
[05:13] <crabgrass> Scunizi: yes i did
[05:13] <Xaero_Vincent> cables, thats what happens when you ask questions multiple times but get no response
[05:13] <sangrelinux> actually, it has four partitions, 2 linux and one windows
[05:13] <saddeh> how do i refresh desktop?
[05:13] <Jordan_U> !ntfs-3g | sangrelinux

[05:13] <cables> Xaero_Vincent, we have a great factoid just for you:
[05:13] <sangrelinux> not sure the fs used, but all four automount when i plug it in

[05:13] <Pelo> kevinOman,  sudo fsck -a /dev/sda3 ext3
[05:14] <Pelo> I thnk
[05:14] <Xaero_Vincent> cables, I'm out of that.. I've been working on this 3 days now
[05:14] <crabgrass> Scunizi: most of these are refrence picutres i've gathered from the internet, so they're not photos.
[05:14] <Scunizi> crabgrass, sorry can't help with that one.. works fine on Dapper.
[05:14] <crabgrass> Scunizi: alright
[05:14] <cables> Xaero_Vincent, if you haven't been able to get an answer here, try the forums and launchpad answers.
[05:14] <SpudDogg> Can someone help me out with a problem that is really bugging me?  Here goes:  I just got an LCD monitor and all is well, including the login screen, but once I'm logged in the screen gets a little blurry.  In a few seconds I get used to it, but I would rather have it crystal clear like the login screen.  Any suggestions?
[05:14] <Drk_Guy> Cables, Pelo, i have inserted this command using your syntaxis "sudo man ln -s /usr/java/jre1.6.0_01/plugin/i386/ns7 /usr/lib/firefox/plugins/"
[05:14] <sangrelinux> ubotu, but it is not just NTSF, even the linux partitions mount read only (and don't give me permissions)
[05:15] <purpzey> SpudDogg: You running compiz or beryl?
[05:15] <cables> SpudDogg, check your settings in System>Preferences>Fonts
[05:15] <kevinOman> pelo i dont think that worked it just gave me a list of all the possible commands
[05:15] <Pelo> Drk_Guy, and did it work
[05:15] <cables> Drk_Guy, get rid of the Man bit
[05:15] <Drk_Guy> But it gives me a "Help kinda" dialog
[05:15] <SpudDogg> purpzey, neither
[05:15] <crabgrass> Scunizi: also, most of the thumbnails for imported images are a big ?
[05:15] <Drk_Guy> Ok, i'll try that way
[05:15] <SpudDogg> cables, sure will, but it's everything not just the fonts
[05:15] <cables> Drk_Guy, the "man ln" was to try to get you to figure it out yourself, but since you didn't, we gave you the command
[05:15] <Pelo> kevinOman,  I said I was no good with that command
[05:16] <cables> SpudDogg, is your resolution correct?
[05:16] <Scunizi> crabgrass, use ctrl and the center mouse wheel to change the size. (hopefully you have a center wheel)
[05:16] <sangrelinux> Jordan_U,  but it is not just NTSF, even the linux partitions mount read only (and don't give me permissions)
[05:16] <cables> SpudDogg, oh, I have an idea... are you using a VGA connector?
[05:16] <SpudDogg> cables, yes
[05:16] <kevinOman> pelo thats ok thanks
[05:16] <crabgrass> Scunizi: i have a 7-button mouse =D
[05:16] <cables> SpudDogg, you should see if your monitor has an AutoAdjust feature... or else just get a DVI connector :)
[05:16] <Pelo> g'night folks
[05:17] <crabgrass> /bye
[05:17] <Scunizi> crabgrass, wow... how do you remember everything?
[05:17] <Jordan_U> sangrelinux, Do they really mount read only, or does your user just not have permission to write to them ( can you write to them as root ) ?
[05:17] <crabgrass> Scunizi: two of the buttons are hardwired to increase/decrease sensitivity
[05:17] <kevinOman> can someone give me an example of fsck
[05:17] <SpudDogg> cables, do you think that would be the problem considering the login screen as well as "the other operating system" look crystal clear?
[05:17] <cracksonj>  /server libres.irc-hispano.org
[05:17] <Drk_Guy> Ok, one last question, how to delete files trough the terminal?
[05:17] <cables> SpudDogg, I've seen this happen before, so it's possible.
[05:17] <sangrelinux> Jordan_U, let me confirm
[05:17] <Scunizi> crabgrass, nice.. I could use that occationally.
[05:18] <Drk_Guy> ...Specifically a Symlink
[05:18] <wols> Drk_Guy: man rm
[05:18] <SpudDogg> cables, ok thanks man...I look into a DVI cable
[05:18] <LadyNikon> what version of KDE is kubuntu using?
[05:18] <Drk_Guy> wols, but how can i delete the Symlink itself
[05:18] <cables> Drk_Guy, with rm, just like you'd delete a file
[05:18] <Drk_Guy> Thanks Cables
[05:19] <LadyNikon> !kde

[05:19] <LadyNikon> nvm
[05:19] <kevinOman> can anyone help with fsck
[05:19] <saddeh> how do i change gnome panel from normal mode to restart mode? :)
[05:19] <sangrelinux> Jordan_U, how can i find out where the drive is mounted too?
[05:19] <cables> saddeh, what do you mean by restart mode?
[05:19] <Jordan_U> kevinOman, sudo fsck /dev/whatever
[05:20] <wols> Drk_Guy: man rm. you delete it like any other file
[05:20] <Drk_Guy> It worked out great, now i have Java 1.6 U1 installed on my system with the Ffox plug-in
[05:20] <Jordan_U> sangrelinux, run "mount" in a terminal
[05:20] <DerangedDingo> Is it possible, and does anyone here know how, to change settings for the TTYs? Every time I enter one I think it isn't adjusted to my resolution or something, because the font is much larger than it should be and goes of screen. Sorry to just jump into things.
[05:20] <Drk_Guy> Thank you all!
[05:20] <Cosmo__> I am building myself a new computer but before I order the parts should I go with a SLI video card setup or just a single video card setup, I have read that a SLI can out preform a more expensive single card but what has been people's experience?
[05:20] <jsd789> I have ubuntu, kernel 2.6.20-16  and i got some security updates and after that i can not boot into it, but i can still go into 20-15.  i have the list of updates i got and as soon as the desktop gets to the place the startup fails i will have the message it gives me    CAN ANY ONE HELP
[05:20] <saddeh> cables: i've been searching forums for my problems and guy told, i quote: I do think that I have solved my gnome-panel problem thou, turns out I have to set my gnome-panel to normal mode, not restart mode
[05:20] <cables> !caps | jsd789

[05:21] <wols> DerangedDingo: dpkg-reconfigure console-tools or edit /etc/console-tools/config
[05:21] <cables> saddeh, I'm sorry, I don't understand what restart mode is.
[05:21] <jsd789> ok
[05:21] <LadyNikon> payan: since this is ubuntu i doubt someone will recommend windows ;)
[05:21] <cables> payan, Windows Movie Maker
[05:21] <DerangedDingo> ok, thank you wols
[05:21] <saddeh> cables: ow-kay np, thanks anyway
[05:21] <DerangedDingo> i'll have a look at it
[05:21] <Jordan_U> jsd789, What message does it give?
[05:21] <LadyNikon> i guess i was wrong
[05:21] <cables> payan, although Kino on Linux may be able to do it :)
[05:21] <wols> Cosmo__: this is not #hardware. but: price/perfomance of SLI kinda sucks. and you must use nvidia proprietary drivers
[05:21] <kevinOman> Jordan_U:  it say can cause sever system damages, should i continue?
[05:21] <jsd789> desktop still trying to boot  will have in a min or two
[05:21] <payan> thanks
[05:22] <jsd789> the prgress bar does not even start to move
[05:22] <Jordan_U> kevinOman, NO!
[05:22] <Jordan_U> kevinOman, Is this your root File system?
[05:22] <sangrelinux> Jordan_U, it says:  /dev/sda1 on /media/disk-1 type ntfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,umask=222,utf8)
[05:23] <kevinOman> Jordan_U:  im running of the live cd right now, its sda3, the third partition on an sata drive
[05:23] <sangrelinux> Jordan_U, but even root can't write to it

[05:23] <Kyu> I have a basic question on installling Desktop.  When does it give you the option for where to install grub?  i plan on dual booting.
[05:24] <jsd789> it use to say stuff  now it just a cursur
[05:24] <wols> sangrelinux: your umask is wrokg. ls -al /media/disk1. what's the output of that?
[05:24] <DerangedDingo> depends on how amny harddrivers you have Kyu
[05:24] <Kyu> 1 hard drive.
[05:24] <Jordan_U> kevinOman, OK, then you need to set the fsck to run at boot, you can't run it off the FS you are booted from
[05:24] <DerangedDingo> Kyu: hd0
[05:24] <kevinOman> Jordan_U:  ok hot to do that
[05:25] <wols> Jordan_U: you can. if you remount it read only
[05:25] <kevinOman> how*
[05:25] <DerangedDingo> Kyu: you can also install it to a specific partition. I heard it's safer than installing to the drive's MBR
[05:25] <jsd789> Jordan  no error message just a cursor
[05:25] <wols> kevinOman: touch /forcefsck
[05:25] <sangrelinux> wols: it lists all the files, permissions:  /dev/sda1 on /media/disk-1 type ntfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,umask=222,utf8)
[05:25] <wols> kevinOman: then reboot

[05:26] <wols> sangrelinux: Jordan_U was right. you use the wrong filesystem driver. you need ntfs-3g
[05:26] <Jordan_U> kevinOman, Close all programs then run this to reboot and have the fsck run: sudo shutdown -F -r now
[05:26] <sangrelinux> wols: thanks
[05:26] <sangrelinux> Jord
[05:26] <nj786> can anybody tell me why my sound and my mic are not working?
[05:26] <sangrelinux> Jordan_U, thanks
[05:26] <purpzey> nj786: More details please.
[05:26] <sangrelinux> will try the other driver
[05:26] <nj786> my mic is not working, nor i cannot listen to any music nor i can record my voice

[05:29] <iTG`Neatchee> Hey all, I'm having some trouble with wpa_supplicant.  Everything was working fine until I accidentally let the battery die on my laptop today.  Now, whenever I try to run wpa_supplicant, it associates with my access point, then times out on authentication with a single "EAPOL-Key Replay Counter did not increase" error.  Any ideas?  A reinstall of wpa_supplicant as well as all wireless drivers has not helped
[05:29] <jsd789> the updates i got before this happened are:  linux-generic, complete generic linux kernal   2.6.15.14 to 2.6.20.16.28.1      linux-headers-generic, generic linux kernel headers  same numbers      linux-image-generic , Generic linux kernel inage  same nubers      linux-restricted-modules-generic  same numbers
[05:29] <nj786> purpzey, but they are not responding lol
[05:30] <DerangedDingo> wols: /etc/console-tools/config shows nothing about screen resolution. I saw some stuff about font though..
[05:30] <jsd789> still no error message  just a cursor  blinking
[05:30] <purpzey> nj786: Well, I have no idea what settings you touched and how to check, sorry.

[05:34] <ubotu> nj786: 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?
[05:34] <nj786> crimsun, i think i messed up my sound
[05:34] <saddeh> cables: they are ontop of the game :S
[05:35] <nj786> crimsun, as in my sound was working perfectly fine b4 i tried to enable my mic and i screwed up my settings for both
[05:35] <nj786> crimsun, is there a way i can make it default again on  alsamixer

[05:36] <jsd789> should i try to start up in recover mode??
[05:36] <rollerskatejamms> whats the difference between the CD and DVD images?
[05:36] <iTG`Neatchee> rollerskatejamms: size
[05:36] <rollerskatejamms> iTG`Neatchee, duh. but really
[05:36] <iTG`Neatchee> :P
[05:36] <crimsun> nj786: cat /proc/asound/modules
[05:36] <rollerskatejamms> iTG`Neatchee, What do I get on the DVD aside from extra packages?
[05:37] <crimsun> nj786: what's the output from that command?
[05:37] <nj786> crimsun, u will have to go i ndetail i am a noobie
[05:37] <jsd789> well ctrl al del  works to restart
[05:37] <iTG`Neatchee> as far as i'm aware, nothing different, except the extra packages
[05:37] <nj786> crimsun, what do i do with this
[05:37] <nj786> cat /proc/asound/modules
[05:37] <iTG`Neatchee> i could be wrong though
[05:37] <crimsun> nj786: in a Terminal, type it.
[05:37] <jsd789> going into recovery mode
[05:37] <rollerskatejamms> iTG`Neatchee, Man they should put the alt install on the dvd
[05:37] <crimsun> nj786: then tell me the output.
[05:37] <nj786> crimsun,  0 snd_intel8x0
[05:38] <trin> Good evening everyone.
[05:38] <iTG`Neatchee> I guess nobody can help with my wpa_supplicant problems.  *sadpanda*
[05:38] <saddeh> cables: rightclicking when its minimized and then selecting On Top helped... cant help laughing :)
[05:38] <crimsun> nj786: ok, so now in that Terminal, execute the following commands (just copy & paste, no need to tell me output):  kill $(lsof -t /dev/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/mixer* /dev/snd/*); sudo modprobe -r $(lsmod|grep ^snd|awk '{print $1}') && sudo rm -f /var/lib/alsa/asound.state && sudo modprobe snd-intel8x0
[05:38] <Apex> I lost my SATA drive with the recent kernel update and incredible long reboots.
[05:39] <Apex> Any suggestions?
[05:39] <purpzey> Apex: Just select the old Kernel in GRUB
[05:39] <Apex> .15?
[05:39] <jsd789> Neatchee  i woudl try but i just found out today i need wpa
[05:39] <Apex> K
[05:39] <trin> Does anyone know if it is possible to have Linux run Mac OS X Cocoa applications natively?  Is there a way to pull that off?  Cocoa is based off of a strict subset of C isn't it?
[05:39] <jsd789> so will be putting it on later tonight or tomorrow
[05:39] <Apex> .16 is giving me the issues
[05:40] <nj786> crimsun, can you go 1 by 1
[05:40] <rollerskatejamms> trin, yeah, implement cocoa on linux :-D
[05:40] <dr_willis> trin,  i was thinking there was some work with windowmaekr (gnustep) in that area. but never looked into it much.
[05:40] <nj786> i am getting confused
[05:40] <purpzey> Apex: Not sure which one, but I know that a lot of people have been having problems and that has been the recommended temporary fix until the new Kernel patch is fixed.
[05:40] <crimsun> nj786: what's confusing?  Take that entire command and copy and paste it into the Terminal.
[05:40] <purpzey> Apex: It was the most recent update. . .
[05:40] <nj786> crimsun, does it strt from kill?
[05:40] <trin> Do I need to copy something from my Mac partition to my Linux partition then, rollerskatejamms?
[05:41] <crimsun> nj786: yes, "kill" is the first word
[05:41] <Apex> Ok, that must be my problem. Two regular drives one SATA
[05:41] <Apex> Thx
[05:41] <rollerskatejamms> trin, no, you would need to program a cocoa interface for linux :-D
[05:41] <purpzey> Apex: No worries.
[05:41] <trin> So, basically, it hasn't been done yet, rollerskatejamms?
[05:41] <rollerskatejamms> trin, AFAIK
[05:41] <jsd789> ok i started in recovery mode,   ok   got /bin/sh:  can"t access tty; job control turned off   but it i sdoing some more struff now
[05:42] <KevinOman> wobs how do i umount a disk when im running of the live cd
[05:42] <nj786> ok crimsun, my sound is working but not my mic
[05:42] <jsd789> hda: lost interrupt
[05:42] <trin> Is there any Linux projects attempting this rollerskatejamms?
[05:43] <rollerskatejamms> trin, i dont know.
[05:43] <nj786> crimsun, do you know why my mic doesnt work?
[05:43] <jsd789> hda: dma-timer-expiry: dma satus == 0X64
[05:43] <crimsun> nj786: because you didn't configure it properly, likely.
[05:43] <trin> Oh ok.  Thanks for the info rollerstakejamms.
[05:43] <nj786> crimsun, exactly what do i do?
[05:43] <crimsun> you need to paste the output from ``amixer`` onto http://pastebin.ca
[05:44] <peepsalot> what could cause X to use 100% cpu?  if the screen is being redrawn too much?
[05:44] <jsd789> hda: DMA interrupt recovery
[05:44] <jsd789> keeps saying thos ethree things
[05:44] <oipat> I can no longer drag my windows to the edge of the screen to move it to another desktop. Does anyone know how to fix this ?
[05:44] <m1r> hi all
[05:44] <nj786> crimsun, more detail please
[05:44] <nj786> crimsun, how and how?
[05:44] <purpzey> oipat: Do you still have multiple desktops?
[05:44] <iTG`Neatchee> Hey all, I'm having some trouble with wpa_supplicant.  Everything was working fine until I accidentally let the battery die on my laptop today.  Now, whenever I try to run wpa_supplicant, it associates with my access point, then times out on authentication with a single "EAPOL-Key Replay Counter did not increase" error.  Any ideas?  A reinstall of wpa_supplicant as well as all wireless drivers has not helped
[05:44] <crimsun> !paste > nj786
[05:44] <trin> Check your preferences oipat.
[05:45] <nj786> crimsun, how do i get output again
[05:45] <oipat> purpzey: Yes, I need to use the Workspace Switcher to switch now..
[05:45] <KevinOman> im running off of the live cd right now and im trying to use gparted to downsize an ext3 partition, but when i click apply it fails and says i need to fix my disc with the following: e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda3, when i type that into terminal it tells me it could destroy my disc
[05:45] <crimsun> nj786: ...you type the command
[05:45] <oipat> purpzey: And right-clicking to send the windows to another desktop.
[05:45] <purpzey> oipat: Do you have Desktop Effects on?
[05:45] <philc_> can I convert regular tomatoes into sun-dried tomatoes? I want to put them on fett. alfredo
[05:45] <peepsalot> nj786, open terminal and type alsamixer, try finding mic settings, there might be some toggles, volume levels etc,  i think tab switches between playback and recording settings
[05:45] <purpzey> oipat: Or, did you have it on and then turn it off?
[05:46] <wladston> guys, I have a powerpc embeded device, and I wanted to install ubuntu on it.  Can anyone help me ?
[05:46] <KevinOman> philc_:  yes
[05:46] <m1r> wlan problem with dlink DWL-G122 rev C1 3.00
[05:46] <peepsalot> philc_ rtfm
[05:46] <oipat> purpzey: I'm not sure, It just suddenly stopped working. I might have turned it off somehow, though.
[05:46] <peepsalot> er, cookbook
[05:46] <peepsalot> :p
[05:46] <nj786> peepsalot, there is mic and micbooster which 1 do i enable
[05:46] <purpzey> oipat: When you were dragging before the cube would sort of rotate?
[05:46] <tremby> hey folks. i just installed xubuntu on my laptop. i'm not sure how to set the keyboard up properly -- the cursors are printing letters A B and D (right doesn't do anything) instead of acting as cursors
[05:46] <m1r> can anyone help with dlink usb adapter ?
[05:46] <nj786> peepsalot, micboos*
[05:47] <crimsun> nj786: you need to enable the mic boost, then select the mic for capture, then unmute capture.
[05:47] <jsd789> help please i have another computer that wants to install these updates
[05:47] <oipat> purpzey: When I was using beryl it was rotating, yes.
[05:47] <purpzey> oipat: But now you turned beryl off, and since then no movement from desktop to desktop?
[05:47] <peepsalot> nj786, i don't know, you might need the boost, just try them, press M if it is a toggle type setting, or up/down for volume type settings
[05:48] <oipat> purpzey: Thats right. It works if i set the window manager to xfwm4, though.
[05:48] <The-Loko> there's no chance i can set up beryl
[05:48] <peepsalot> nj786, there is probably a settings somewhere that says record from mic or line in or something
[05:48] <nj786> crimsun, slow down lets go step by step
[05:48] <peepsalot> nj786, do you have your mic plugged in the correct jack?
[05:48] <nj786> peepsalot, yesi do
[05:48] <oipat> purpzey: dragging windows is possible by default in gnome, right ?
[05:48] <peepsalot> nj786, is it mic or line-in?
[05:48] <nj786> line in?
[05:48] <purpzey> oipat: Well, you can turn on desktop effects System --> Pref --> Desktop Effects. And then it should work.
[05:48] <jsd789> ok how do i make it so grub will auto load the kernel that works with out fixing the broken kernel
[05:49] <nj786> peepsalot, line-in
[05:49] <nj786> ?
[05:49] <fotoflo> hmmm ubuntu seems to have poor support for my video card (i cant even change my resolution higher then 1024x768)    should i change window mangers, or what?
[05:49] <vecina> So is ubuntu running in AMD64 architecture BANNED from using youtube or what?
[05:49] <purpzey> oipat: To be honest, I don't know, I've never run gnome without desktop effects or beryl
[05:49] <dr_willis> fotoflo,  what video card is it?
[05:49] <vecina> because i cant install flash 9
[05:49] <IcemanV9> *sigh* google have 3 returned "possible" answers for "vpnc: response was invalid [1] : ISAKMP_N_INVALID_COOKIE(4)" problem AND it did not help
[05:49] <fotoflo> dr_willis, its onboard video on an intel 845 mb
[05:49] <dr_willis> flash9 has a 64bit support?
[05:49] <vecina> no
[05:50] <vecina> But i cant even install the 32 bit one, it complains!
[05:50] <blimpdude> hi. any ideas on how to control the fan trigger points on a toshiba laptop? i know it is probably preset by the manufacturer, but it seems like the fan trips at 47 degrees C, which by my standards, is low
[05:50] <peepsalot> nj786, it is common for many sound cards to have two sound inputs, one called mic and one called line in, you can theoretically use either one, as long as the settings are right.  the mic jack will provide the mic boost option.
[05:50] <peepsalot> nj786, does your mic take batteries?
[05:50] <vecina> I want to watch youtube >.<
[05:50] <rollerskatejamms> Can I do mkisofs directly on a cd to create an ISO of a CD I have?
[05:50] <vecina> I can do it in windows, why cant i do it in linux?
[05:50] <peepsalot> nj786, if not then you probably want to try mic boost
[05:50] <oipat> purpzey: Nice, thanks :>
[05:50] <nj786> peepsalot, no mic is acomputer mic
[05:50] <nj786> my*
[05:51] <KevinOman> im running off of the live cd right now and im trying to use gparted to downsize an ext3 partition, but when i click apply it fails and says i need to fix my disc with the following: e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda3, when i type that into terminal it tells me it could destroy my disc
[05:51] <KevinOman> tcan anyone help please
[05:51] <peepsalot> nj786, what are you trying to use your mic with?
[05:51] <purpzey> jsd789: I believe you can change the default through /boot/grub/
[05:51] <fotoflo> dr_willis, 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G] /GE Chipset
[05:51] <nj786> peepsalot, record things
[05:51] <purpzey> jsd789: menu
[05:51] <nj786> peepsalot, like my voice etc... long story
[05:51] <dr_willis> fotoflo,   not used that. sorry. may have to google.
[05:51] <peepsalot> nj786, i mean what application
[05:51] <jsd789> menu?
[05:51] <nj786> peepsalot, inorder to dothat i need to get my mic to work
[05:52] <nj786> i am using audaticy, peepsalot
[05:52] <nj786> audacity
[05:52] <fotoflo> what should i google for?
[05:52] <bridget_> Hello. using gl destop i can get some effects and a spinning cube, but cant zoom the cube out any help on how to do this?
[05:52] <nj786> peepsalot, and everytime i record something it gives me this error
[05:52] <nj786> peepsalot, would u like to know what it says?
[05:52] <peepsalot> sure
[05:52] <purpzey> jsd789: I'm not positive, but if you just open that file, you'll see it mentions default....There is also a file in that dir called default, but I have no idea what it does...Someone else should know
[05:52] <tbuss> is it possible to view a odt file in a ssh session
[05:53] <re-align> nj786, please use the pastebin
[05:53] <purpzey> bridget_: You might want to switch to beryl for that stuff.
[05:53] <jsd789> any idea why it will not boot?
[05:53] <purpzey> jsd789: Have you tried to boot using the old kernel?
[05:53] <re-align> !pastebin | nj786
[05:53] <ubotu> nj786: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[05:53] <jsd789> yes it works
[05:53] <bridget_> purpzey: i cant get beryl to work. strange i know, but compiz works fine. beryl doesnt.
[05:53] <purpzey> jsd789: The new Kernel is apparently a little buggy.
[05:54] <jsd789> only after the updates i got thou did it stop work
[05:54] <jsd789> ing
[05:54] <fotoflo> dr_willis, if im seeing poor performance, should i try a diffrent window manager?
[05:54] <nj786> peepsalot, it says error while opening sound device. please check input device settings and the project sample rate
[05:54] <KevinOman> im running off of the live cd right now and im trying to use gparted to downsize an ext3 partition, but when i click apply it fails and says i need to fix my disc with the following: e2fsck -f -y -v /dev/sda3, when i type that into terminal it tells me it could destroy my disc
[05:54] <KevinOman> tcan someone help me
[05:55] <purpzey> jsd789: Yeah. the most recent kernel updates were bugging, I hear...and I hear that these problems are usually fixed within a few days, but for the moment, just boot to the old Kernel, and everything should work.
[05:55] <peepsalot> nj786, maybe audacity itself is not configured right, maybe it has it's own irc channel
[05:56] <purpzey> bridget_: I don't really know anything about compiz...or, at least much. So, I can't really help you with that...sorry.
[05:56] <re-align> having some trouble getting Network-Manager (network-manager-gnome) tot properly use my rt2500 wireless card.
[05:56] <fotoflo> hmmm ubuntu seems to have poor support for my video card (i cant even change my resolution higher then 1024x768)    should i change window mangers, or what?
[05:56] <bridget_> purpzey: It's okay. Thank you.
[05:56] <purpzey> bridget_: But someone here might, or #ubuntu-effects, or #beryl
[05:56] <nj786> peepsalot, i am able to record but i am not able to listen to my recording and everytime i try to listen it gives me that error
[05:56] <jsd789> so later a new update will fix the 20-16  i have  and i will get it from running 20-15???
[05:57] <mwhorn> fotoflo, what chipset does your video card have
[05:57] <re-align> nj786, ssounds like your output isn't set up properly.
[05:57] <fotoflo> 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G] /GE Chipset
[05:57] <nj786> re-allign, what can i do?
[05:57] <fotoflo> intel
[05:57] <peepsalot> nj786, can you listen to any files in audacity?
[05:57] <jsd789> should i just comment out the lines to load 20-16  or move them in the menu.lst
[05:57] <nj786> peepsalot, as in music?
[05:57] <purpzey> jsd789: Honestly, I don't know. Ask the whole chan.
[05:58] <peepsalot> ANY files
[05:58] <mwhorn> ok have you installed linux-restricted-modules?
[05:58] <peepsalot> sound files
[05:58] <purpzey> jsd789: I am curious myself.
[05:58] <re-align> nj786, depends upon where the problem is. Can you hear sound normally (such as when Ubuntu boots up)?
[05:58] <jsd789> i am asking
[05:58] <KevinOman> anyone know how to unmount a drive
[05:58] <fotoflo> mwhorn, intel 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G] /GE Chipset
[05:58] <jsd789> anyone
[05:58] <nj786> re-align yues i can but i cannot hear media filesi n audacity it gives me the sae error if i try to play it
[05:59] <ablyss> KevinOman, sudo umount /dev/mounted_drive
[05:59] <jsd789> oh well i still have windows and my laptop kubuntu still works
[05:59] <mwhorn> sudo umount /your-unmountable-deive-here/
[05:59] <nj786> peepsalot, i cannot hear any files because when i hit play it gives me the same error as it did for the mic
[05:59] <re-align> nj786, sounds like the problem is in audacity. i'm not familiar with that program as i don't use it.
[05:59] <purpzey> jsd789: Why can't you just boot the old kernel from the grub menu?
[05:59] <jsd789> i will try moving them purpzey and see what happens   brb
[06:00] <re-align> Probably just needs to be configured.
[06:00] <KevinOman> ablyss: thanks
[06:00] <peepsalot> nj786, in audacity, go to Edit-> Preferences -> Audio I/O and see if you can choose a different device
[06:00] <jsd789> i can if i babysit the computer durning boot  but i like to turn it on and walk away
[06:00] <jsd789> brb
[06:00] <purpzey> Ok.
[06:00] <peepsalot> nj786, what version of audacity?
[06:00] <purpzey> What's the best way to make sure that grub boots into the old kernel, if the new kernel update was fubar?
[06:01] <fotoflo> hmmm ubuntu seems to have poor support for my video card (intel 82845G/GL[Brookdale-G] /GE Chipset   i cant even change my resolution higher then 1024x768)    should i change window mangers, or what?
[06:01] <nj786> peepsalot, 1.2.6 to be exact
[06:01] <tritium> fotoflo: support is quite good for intel, actually
[06:02] <fotoflo> tritium, then why do i have bad performance?
[06:02] <fotoflo> people come to my house and see my computer and they say "cool, its running linux.... but why is it so slow?"
[06:02] <tritium> fotoflo: there could be a multitude of reasons.
[06:03] <fotoflo> tritium, full screen video runs at like 15 fps
[06:03] <nj786> peepsalot, what is mic boost and why did u want to know the version of audacity?
[06:04] <tritium> fotoflo: if you suspect a problem with X.org, check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[06:04] <peepsalot> nj786, mic boost just amplifies the signal of the mic.  some mics have built in amplifiers, so they don't need a boost
[06:04] <nj786> peepsalot, and microphone capture?
[06:04] <tritium> re-align: please disable that
[06:04] <Neatchee> Hey guys, I'm really at wits end here with wpa_supplicant.  I can't authenticate to any encrypted access point anymore, after a power failure earlier today.  I can associate just fine to non-secured APs, but i get an EAPOL-Key Replay Counter error when trying to use WPA.  This was not happening before today.
[06:04] <peepsalot> nj786, did you try those steps i said to change the device in audacity?
[06:05] <nj786> peepsalot, no can you repeat them
[06:05] <purpzey> How can I change grub to load the old kernel on default if the new kernel is not booting?
[06:05] <tritium> purpzey: edit /boot/grub/menu.lst, and change the default
[06:05] <peepsalot> nj786, in audacity, go to Edit-> Preferences -> Audio I/O and see if you can choose a different device
[06:05] <peepsalot> try picking one that says ALSA if you can
[06:06] <nj786> peepsalot, i can but there are 4 options i dono which one
[06:06] <cerealkiller219> I used the update manager to get 7.04, but it failed some file about 3/4 of the way through the installation, now when I boot up it only boots up some of the programs... is there a way to repair that?
[06:06] <peepsalot> purpzey, there is some setting that will default to the previously booted menu item, but I can't remember right now
[06:06] <purpzey> tritium: I am considering avoiding that update on my desktop because of the kernel issues, should I ignore all of the updates, should I do the kernel update anyway, got a suggestion?
[06:07] <peepsalot> nj786, try them one by one and see if one of them gets rid of your error
[06:07] <tritium> purpzey: which update?
[06:07] <nj786> peepsalot, ma y show u a screenshot
[06:07] <purpzey> tritum: The new kernel that is causing issues for some people.
[06:07] <ablyss> cerealkiller219, when you run the update-manager does it not mention of a repair update ?
[06:07] <jsd789> purpzey, i found a menu.lst~  that did not have 20-16 in it at all and my room mates computer with out the updates is running 20-15   so i just renamed menu.lst  to menu.lst~~  and menu.lst~  to menu.lst    that shoudl do the trick
[06:07] <cerealkiller219> no
[06:08] <cerealkiller219> ablyss: but I know it needs repaired
[06:08] <jsd789> do not do teh kernel updates  it doesnt work yet
[06:08] <peepsalot> nj786, go ahead
[06:08] <tritium> purpzey: it's up to you.  I've running the updates with no problem.  What's being affected?
[06:08] <tritium> I've been*
[06:08] <MSTK> does anyone know of a good RSS reader for the unix command line?
[06:09] <jsd789> thansk for the help guys purpzey mainly
[06:09] <purpzey> Tritium: I updated my laptop yesterday with no worries...but I've seen at least 3 or 4 people that couldn't get the new kernel to boot at all, or had some kind of problem once it booted....and then someone else told me that sometimes the new kernels can be iffy or have problems for a few days.
[06:09] <peepsalot> jsd789, default saved
[06:09] <peepsalot> jsd789, http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html#default
[06:09] <purpzey> jsd789: No worries.
[06:09] <mwhorn> fotoflo, make sure you have the packages "linux-restricted-modules-generic" (assuming you are running the generic kernel) and the linux drivers for you graphics card. srr http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/intel810/sb/cs-009118.htm
[06:09] <mwhorn> *see
[06:10] <tritium> mwhorn: intel graphics support doesn't need restricted modules
[06:10] <tritium> (only ATI and nVidia)
[06:10] <mwhorn> ok then i have no idea. :)
[06:11] <nj786> ok peepsmart, none of those dvices work
[06:11] <nj786> recording devices
[06:11] <purpzey> tritium: Someone mentioned a problem with machines not using USSID, I don't really know what that is...I guess I am just wondering if it is a good idea to install the new update/kernel given that people have been having problems with it.
[06:11] <frank__> morgen :)
[06:11] <mwhorn> tritium, at least i got the website right
[06:12] <tritium> mwhorn: :)
[06:12] <peepsalot> nj786, you said you get the error on playback, right?  did you try different playback devices?
[06:12] <frank__> not in german :(
[06:12] <jsd789> peepsalot  cool thanks, i have to do a pesentation on a unix topics for my unix programing class, I am still kinda of a newbie , and that link you just gave me, i think i will do my presentation on GRUB   srry caps
[06:12] <nj786> peepsalot, there are no other devices for playback
[06:12] <peepsalot> nj786, you said you could record but not playback, when you record do you see a waveform or just a flat line?
[06:13] <nj786> peepsalot, when i click it it doesnt do anything exept something
[06:13] <peepsalot> lol
[06:13] <purpzey> tritium: Any opinion on that?
[06:13] <nj786> peepsalot, a wave form
[06:13] <Meglo> FUCK YES POWER RANGERS
[06:13] <tritium> purpzey: I've not seen any bug reports on it yet, and I've not kept up with the mailing lists lately, so I've not seen any reports of it.
[06:13] <purpzey> !ohmy
[06:13] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.

[06:13] <Neatchee> Hey guys, I'm really at wits end here with wpa_supplicant.  I can't authenticate to any encrypted access point anymore, after a power failure earlier today.

[06:13] <peepsalot> nj786, what does it say for playback device?
[06:14] <greg_g>  heya, anyone know about a recent (last week) post that was on planet.kde.org about a script to keep gnome and kde applications in different menus if you have both installed?
[06:14] <purpzey> Anyone else know anything about the recent kernel upgrade and related issues?
[06:14] <nj786> peepsalot, nothing
[06:14] <greg_g> (yeah, I know, try #kubuntu, I did, no response)
[06:14] <cables> !anyone | purpzey
[06:14] <ubotu> purpzey: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[06:14] <nj786> peepsalot, when i clik it a small box appears on the side
[06:15] <mwhorn> purpzel, what specifically? I know I wasant able to mount my home partition afterwards
[06:15] <frank__> k3b streikt kann mir hier jemand helfen
[06:15] <peepsalot> nj786, ok so audacity can't find your audio playback device for some reason.  i don't know much more to troubleshoot.  try asking in #audacity, or maybe googling you error
[06:15] <jaloola> hi
[06:15] <jaloola> exit
[06:15] <Chicory> I have a very, very old computer that I want to install Ubuntu as a server on.
[06:15] <jaloola> <exit

[06:16] <Chicory> It is old enough to not have a Boot Menu, it isn't booting from the CD Rom, and its installtion of Win98 isn't booting either due to a long-forgotten crash.
[06:16] <nj786> ok peepsalot btw do you know anythin about printers becuase my printer will not print on unbuntu
[06:16] <Chicory> *installation, even
[06:16] <purpzey> cables: Yes, but there is no specific question. I am just curious if anyone knows issues related to the new kernel update....I did it on my laptop, but since then, I've heard of a lot of issues..I am considering holding off on that update for my desktop.
[06:16] <peepsalot> nj786, well, i know mine works ;)
[06:16] <Chicory> Should I boot a USB disk from a floppy and install Puppy Linux or some such thing on the hard drive?
[06:17] <mwhorn> have you tried updating your bios?
[06:17] <Chicory> Me?
[06:17] <peepsalot> nj786, did you try going to printer settings and adding a new printer?
[06:17] <mwhorn> ^chicory
[06:17] <mwhorn> yeah
[06:17] <Chicory> It has no netboot.
[06:17] <nj786> peepsalot, i have a HP PHOTOSMART C3180 and it will not print
[06:17] <Chicory> And the win98 isn't working ...
[06:17] <tritium> nj786: that should be well supported.
[06:17] <Chicory> So, uh, the chances of updating it are virtually nil.
[06:17] <nj786> peepsalot, ALOT of times
[06:17] <mwhorn> i mean, does it have a floppy drive? many manufacturers have a way to update the bios via floppy
[06:18] <Chicory> Yes.
[06:18] <Nergar> !grub
[06:18] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[06:18] <Chicory> I'm thinking of booting Puppy Linux from a floppy, then installing that -- or some such thing.
[06:18] <Chicory> Er, a Debian derivative, like Ubuntu.
[06:18] <teachers> hi
[06:19] <Neatchee> Still need help with wpa_supplicant
[06:19] <peepsalot> gotta go yall, laterz
[06:19] <tritium> nj786: cups has support for your printer.  What issues are you having?
[06:19] <KevinOman> hello if I am going to install ubuntu server on a second partition, do I make another swap or use the same one?
[06:19] <nj786> tritium, it doesnt print anything
[06:20] <tritium> nj786: you've set it up?  Is it powered and plugged in when you boot your computer?  (The initscripts need to see the printer at boot)
[06:20] <mwhorn> chicory, what is your bios/motherboard vendor? if that isn't practical, maybe see this (unless you have see it already) http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-75367.html
[06:21] <nj786> tritium, i guess so
[06:21] <KevinOman> anyone?
[06:21] <tritium> nj786: you guess?  About what?
[06:21] <nj786> peepsalot, no body is reponding to me in the audacity chatroom
[06:21] <nj786> tritium, i have everything setuo
[06:21] <nj786> setup
[06:22] <tritium> nj786: and the answer to my question about startup?
[06:22] <KevinOman> bruenig: hey, if I am going to install ubuntu server on a second partition, do I make another swap or use the same one?
[06:22] <nj786> tritium, what do you mean startup?
[06:22] <bruenig> KevinOman, same and ask the channel
[06:22] <Fezzler> I can map to (in Vista) and mount to (in OS X) Ubuntu Linux server files using Samba, but the permission for the folder isn't extending to files in them???
[06:22] <Pawba> KevinOman: You can use the same swap partition with anything.
[06:22] <KevinOman> sorry its just that I knew you could answer it :)
[06:23] <KevinOman> thanks guys
[06:23] <tritium> nj786: when you boot the machine
[06:23] <Pawba> hm
[06:23] <Chicory> Oh dear ...
[06:23] <Pawba> We need a linux kernel module for an OSS "readyboost" knockoff.
[06:23] <Chicory> Let me check this motherboard ...
[06:23] <Chicory> This thing is ancient.
[06:23] <nj786> tritium, what about it?
[06:23] <UberDuper> Does ubuntu come with a ncurses based disk partitioning utility?
[06:24] <mwhorn> chicory, well actually i have found a quicker fix (i hope)
[06:24] <tritium> nj786: see my question.  I don't want to have to repeat myself.
[06:24] <crdlb> UberDuper, I believe that's what parted is
[06:24] <Pawba> UberDuper: I think the alternate CD does.
[06:24] <tritium> That's correct.
[06:24] <Pawba> crdlb: I thought only Gparted was on the standard disc?
[06:24] <Chicory> Hmm?
[06:24] <Chicory> here mwhorn ?
[06:24] <Chicory> *Where, that is
[06:25] <UberDuper> Ah. parted will work.
[06:25] <mwhorn> http://www.wolfgang-brinkmann.de/bcdw/index_e.htm scroll down to "bootable cd loader". This floppy program will mount your cd drive so you can install from there.
[06:25] <UberDuper> What's the linux FS of choice for fileservers with mostly large files these days?
[06:25] <nj786> tritium, yes it is plugged in
[06:25] <Pawba> UberDuper: fat12
[06:25] <tritium> nj786: and turned on?
[06:26] <nj786> yes
[06:26] <UberDuper> Ah. Linux has been progressing nicely I see.
[06:26] <Pawba> UberDuper: I have a buddy that swears by reiser.
[06:27] <UberDuper> Back when I worked with linux I used reiser. I don't remember why.
[06:27] <tuxican> hello, are there any ubuntu ppc users?
[06:27] <tuxican> in here
[06:27] <Pawba> tuxican: If you send me the hardware, I can be one.
[06:27] <UberDuper> I'd prefer to go zfs given the choice. =/
[06:27] <mwhorn> chicory, do you think that will work?
[06:27] <tuxican> Pawba: lol, yeah sure......
[06:27] <feross> Hey guys, any suggestions on a setup to run only firefox with flash/java, from RAM? Like a kiosk box. I'm looking into the kiosk project and something like damnsmall but figured I'd ask to see if anyone had any better suggestions.
[06:27] <Pawba> hm
[06:28] <Fezzler> Anyone clear on setting permissions for networked folders?
[06:29] <nj786> tritium?
[06:29] <tritium> nj786: yes?
[06:30] <nj786> tritium, what do i do
[06:30] <tritium> nj786: I had asked if it's always powered on when you boot.
[06:31] <nj786> tritium, well i turn the power button off
[06:31] <Pawba> Trying to boot off a USB drive or something?
[06:31] <feross> Pawba: yeah, if I have to
[06:32] <tritium> nj786: turn it ON, and please run "sudo invoke-rc.d cupsys restart", and try to print after that
[06:32] <Pawba> hm
[06:32] <Pawba> I find it particularly scary that almost all of the newer PCs I've been working with automatically boot from USB.
[06:32] <nj786> tritium, is something suposed to happen in terminal wen i type "sudo invoke-rc.d cupsys restart
[06:32] <dhgwill> i've been having serious problems with wifi connectivity after suspend and hibernate recently... Network Manager just doesn't recognize that I have wireless service without some serious prompting...
[06:33] <dhgwill> the manual config still works, but... it's a royal pain in the butt...
[06:33] <Jordan_U> Pawba, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LiveUsbPendrivePersistent :)
[06:33] <feross> Pawba: I'm trying to put an old pc to good use.
[06:33] <tritium> nj786: cups will restart
[06:33] <nj786> ok done
[06:33] <nj786> what now?
[06:34] <tritium> nj786: try to print, as I suggested earlier.  Did it indicate that it restarted cups?
[06:34] <feross> Pawba: I figure the kids can use it for flash/java games. All they need is to run firefox. If I run it from RAM it should be the fastest. Only 256MB tho
[06:34] <eccentricity> anybody know why might music applications have no sound? I recently installed...
[06:34] <nj786> tritium yes it resterted
[06:34] <Pawba> Jordan_U: Yea. Hm.  I've never seen that for ubuntu.  What do you think the space requirements are for Ubuntu 7.04 + Beryl ? :)
[06:34] <feross> eccentricity: run alsamixer make sure nothing important is mutted
[06:35] <tritium> nj786: okay
[06:35] <Jordan_U> Pawba, Exactly the same as the size of the Ubuntu LiveCD
[06:35] <Pawba> hm
[06:35] <Jordan_U> Pawba, (or much less without everything else )
[06:35] <bobsumone>  im using ubuntu server (7.xx) and im trying to add my apache www folder to a samba share
[06:35] <bobsumone> can someone help me
[06:36] <neztiti> hi guys - how i can enable universe and multiverse
[06:36] <mwhorn> Chicory: did you see the "http://www.wolfgang-brinkmann.de/bcdw/index_e.htm scroll down to "bootable cd loader". This floppy program will mount your cd drive so you can install from there."
[06:36] <Pawba> Jordan_U: LiveCD is a compressed ramdisk, though.  hm
[06:36] <nj786> ok tritium, it printer, but it came out messed up
[06:36] <bruenig> neztiti, they are enabled by default in 7.04
[06:36] <Jordan_U> Pawba, And those instructions basically dump the LiveCD to a thumb drive
[06:36] <tritium> nj786: how so?  So, as you see, when that initscript runs (at boot time) you need to have the printer powered.
[06:36] <bobsumone>  im using ubuntu server (7.xx) and im trying to add my apache www folder to a samba share, can someone help me?
[06:37] <bruenig> !repeat | bobslaede

[06:37] <Jordan_U> bruenig, Oh the irony :)
[06:37] <Pawba> Jordan_U: Oh, I must've misread.  I thought they were using a LiveCD to install Linux to a thumbie.  I have a CF card aroun here somewhere with WinPE2.0...  That's pretty nice.
[06:37] <nj786> tritium, yes
[06:37] <bobsumone>  noiesmo: I know, but I cant exactly figure it out
[06:37] <eccentricity> nothing is muted...
[06:37] <waseem> hi how do i find out basic information about my computer?
[06:37] <tritium> nj786: so, messed up how?
[06:37] <bobsumone> i can add it, but then i cant access it
[06:38] <Pawba> waseem: Watch it boot.
[06:38] <bobsumone> nor write to it
[06:38] <Jordan_U> waseem, System -> Preferences -> Hardware information
[06:38] <PokerFacePenguin> waseem: what kind of info you lookin for?
[06:38] <waseem> pawba: how can i just get a list of items without having to frantically skim it while it loads
[06:38] <nj786> tritium, it came out messed up the paper as in it came out like 1/4 of what it wa ssuposed to print i did a test page
[06:38] <Pawba> waseem: Press Pause|Break while it boots. :P
[06:38] <Jordan_U> waseem, What do you want to know?
[06:38] <waseem> jordan: hardware inforamtion is not listed
[06:39] <Pawba> waseem: /proc has info on everything.  dmesg | less will let you page through the "Frantic boot" thing.
[06:39] <waseem> uhh just like the ram and whatnot
[06:39] <inflex> Hiya all - I need to xfer my Ubuntu system from /dev/hda2 (IDE) over to /dev/sdb2 (SATA)... now, copying the files isn't a problem... my pondering though is how I make /dev/sdb2 the default boot device (after I've removed /dev/hda)
[06:39] <inflex> or how do I even install grub into /dev/sdb for preparation
[06:39] <tuxican> does anyone in here have experience with "yaboot" ?

[06:40] <neztiti> bruenig: thanx man
[06:40] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: type ifconfig
[06:40] <Jordan_U> tuxican, I have used it, what do you want to know?
[06:40] <noiesmo> bobsumone: do you need apache to write or just the user
[06:40] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: it will show you your interfaces
[06:40] <noiesmo> bobsumone: you will need to change the permissions or owner ship of folder
[06:40] <Neatchee> I'm still having problems with wpa_supplicant
[06:40] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: I did, i'm getting a bogus IP, not in my dhcp range
[06:40] <PokerFacePenguin> if you see your interface has no ip, sudo dhclient interface_name
[06:40] <Neatchee> any help would be appreciated
[06:41] <tuxican> Jordan_U: I need to mess with xorg so I can boot the livecd to install, so I need to do a text mode boot
[06:41] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: it is probably a non routable ip that comes up default
[06:41] <m0u5e> does anyone know how to configure firestarter so that I can use it for both wireless and wired without having to go into preferences to change it every time
[06:41] <waseem> just like if i want to know what pentium it is, the memory, hard drive, etc
[06:41] <Neatchee> Hey guys, I'm really at wits end here with wpa_supplicant.  I can't authenticate to any encrypted access point anymore, after a power failure earlier today.  I can associate just fine to non-secured APs, but i get an EAPOL-Key Replay Counter error when trying to use WPA.  This was not happening before today.
[06:41] <bz0b> hey
[06:42] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: sorry, what does that mean? Non-routable IP?
[06:42] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: bogus ip that is a local ip...wont go through your router
[06:42] <Jordan_U> tuxican, There is no "text mode boot" ( although there is a text based installer ), just press Fn+ctrl+alt+F1 to get to a terminal
[06:42] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: that's what I thought
[06:43] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: try the sudo dhclient interface_name command
[06:43] <bz0b> does anyone have any suggestions for installing ati drivers other than the one in the repos?
[06:43] <tuxican> Jordan_U: ah, thx
[06:43] <m0u5e> anyone have recommendations for good firewalls besides firetstarter?
[06:43] <Jordan_U> bz0b, What is wrong with the one in the repos?
[06:43] <EvilDennisR> Is there any way to have the gnome-keyboard volume shortcut use PCM instead of Master to control the volume?
[06:43] <tritium> !ati > bz0b
[06:43] <greg_g> so, I know there is a script or something out there that separates gnome and kde apps into separate menus when you have both installed, anyone know where that is?
[06:43] <m0u5e> firestarter wont switch between two internet connections automatically :/
[06:44] <waseem> how do i find out how much memory my computer has
[06:44] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: it says no DHCPOFFERS recieved
[06:44] <bz0b> Jordan_U, well everytime i do the one in the repos or the way it says in the ati from ubotu i get the mesa crap
[06:44] <Jordan_U> EvilDennisR, Yes, you can set what it controls in System -> preferences -> Sound
[06:44] <tritium> tuxican: there is single-user mode (also called rescue mode), that doesn't get to runlevel 2, and hence is text-only
[06:44] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: did you call the correct interface...for instance, eth0 or eth1.....whatever interface you are trying to get to come up
[06:44] <m0u5e> waseem: you can type top into the terminal
[06:44] <tritium> tuxican: you should have an entry in your grub menu that you can select for that
[06:44] <Jordan_U> bz0b, You shouldn't, Have you tired the restricted driver manager?
[06:44] <eccentricity> ok, it appears gnome-cdplayer has sound, but amarok, xmms and xine don't seem to
[06:45] <bz0b> yes
[06:45] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: yes, ifconfig calls it eth0, so that is what I used
[06:45] <tuxican> tritium: how do you mean?
[06:45] <bz0b> that does the same thing
[06:45] <EvilDennisR> Jordan_U: Ahh rock on.. I wasn't even looking there. Thanks
[06:45] <eccentricity> once again, this is a new install. Anybody got an idea?
[06:45] <Jordan_U> bz0b, Can you pastebin your xorg.conf ?
[06:45] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: that is your wired card.....correct?
[06:45] <bz0b> well i just did a fresh install so should i install it first
[06:45] <Jordan_U> EvilDennisR, no
[06:45] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: yes
[06:45] <Jordan_U> *np :)
[06:46] <tritium> tuxican: what I said.  What are you looking to do?
[06:46] <Jordan_U> bz0b, Yes, with restricted driver manager
[06:46] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: hmm, and you have no networking going at all on that machine?
[06:46] <tritium> bz0b: yes, ubuntu packages are always preferable to outside sources
[06:47] <Nergar> lets hypothetically say i have debian and ubuntu installed in a PC with LILO boot loader, and lets say i don't have any grub files but i want to install grub in a separated partition (/boot), what should i use??
[06:47] <purpzey> tritium: There are definitely issues related to the new kernel, it was reported to launchpad...etc..etc...So, if I want to not install that upgrade, should I just "uncheck" those kernel items on the update list?
[06:47] <yamathan> Chicory here, on another computer with a floppy frive.
[06:47] <yamathan> mwhorn: What was that site you linked to me earlier?
[06:47] <bz0b> tritium, i know that i love ubuntu packages so easy and always reliable this is pretty much my first problem on ubuntu
[06:47] <yamathan> My history on the other computer seems to have disappeared.
[06:47] <bz0b> brb
[06:47] <tritium> purpzey: yes, if that's what you choose
[06:47] <Nergar> anyone has an idea?
[06:47] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: All windoz machines are working correctly, both directly in the router and behind the current switch. LAN doesn't seem to work on either Ubuntu or Kubuntu
[06:47] <purpzey> tritium: When the next set of newer updates comes out then I will have the option of upgrading then, correct?
[06:48] <Jordan_U> Nergar, use grub-install
[06:48] <tuxican> tritium: edit xorg, so I can boot ubuntuppc without a blank screen
[06:48] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: did  you install a firewall on ubuntu/kubuntu?
[06:48] <Jordan_U> Nergar, Just point it at a partition instead of the MBR
[06:48] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: no, default config
[06:48] <KevinOman> how do I get a basic desktop running on ubuntu server?
[06:48] <Cosmo__> can anyoe make any suggestion as to good motherboards to go with a AMDfx x2 5600 processor and a nvidia 7950gt video card
[06:48] <purpzey> Kevin0man: Just install gnome
[06:49] <bz0b> ok im back
[06:49] <tritium> tuxican: you don't need to boot into single-user mode for that.
[06:49] <Jordan_U> KevinOman, install ubuntu-desktop ( which is more than "basic", but I think what you want )
[06:49] <KevinOman> purpzey:  install ubuntu-desktop or gnome itself
[06:49] <tritium> tuxican: what do you mean by a blank screen?  X.org isn't starting properly?
[06:49] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: i have a very customized version of ubuntu going, and cannot remember if they made a firewall a default app...is firestarter or guarddog in your application list?
[06:49] <KevinOman> Jordan_U:  ok that's what I was wonderin
[06:50] <Kuma> hi, my kubuntu linux distro stoped recognizing my cable Internet connection, how can i fix this?
[06:50] <bz0b> Jordan_U, http://pastebin.ca/521336
[06:50] <feliciano> hi... I got trouble with transmission
[06:50] <KevinOman> Kuma you might try askin in #kubuntu
[06:50] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: nope, and no other by any name.
[06:50] <Nergar> Jordan_U: the real problem is; i had grub but i erased everything in /boot, so every time i try to reinstall grub, i get an "Error 15: File not found" I've tried different methods but all with the same outcome
[06:50] <feliciano> I use it and when I quit, I can use internet
[06:51] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: can you ping 127.0.0.1?
[06:51] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: yes, the loopback?
[06:51] <Kuma> KevinOman: there's more people here and the difference between them isn't that big
[06:51] <flake> is there a way I can convert FLV to AVI or WMV format?
[06:51] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: so networking is going, its just not routing
[06:51] <Kuma> KevinOman: i've always come here for help with great results
[06:52] <Jordan_U> Nergar, Have you tried just re-installing / dpkg-reconfigure ing grub?
[06:52] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: you could set a static ip and see if that helps
[06:52] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: exactly, and I can't figure out way. Everything on the router side seems fine
[06:52] <bz0b> Jordan_U, any ideas
[06:52] <mwhorn> yamathan
[06:52] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: I'll try that, one sec
[06:52] <Jordan_U> Nergar, "sudo update-grub " might do it too
[06:53] <Jordan_U> bz0b, Can you pastebin the output of "glxinfo" ?
[06:53] <underwatercow> #c++
[06:53] <newguy> The last thing I did on this computer was update the WINDOWS drivers for my processor, (AMD athelon 64 X2), then when I tried to boot into linux I now get an error saying the ramdrive is full, followed by an error "Kernel Panic - Not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (0,0)"
[06:53] <bz0b> sure
[06:53] <rollerskatejamms> Whats a good way to see how big a folder and all its contents are, from the terminal. (recursively)
[06:53] <Kuma> If i hve to take a guess, i think the DNS isn't working because when i try to ping google.com the process returns inmediately "host unknown"
[06:53] <Nergar> never thought that could be an answer, let me check Jordan_U
[06:53] <KevinOman> kuma that's fine I do to , its just that you are referring to a different desktop, you might get better help there.
[06:54] <bz0b> http://pastebin.ca/521342
[06:54] <bz0b> Jordan_U, there
[06:54] <underwatercow> can someone help me with an undefined reference error? I know I'm probably missing something obvious, but I'm not seeing it. Not sure if I should pastebin it, or if just giving the prototypes and call would be enough...
[06:55] <Kuma> ok, i'll try #kubuntu
[06:55] <newguy> The last thing I did on this computer was update the WINDOWS drivers for my processor, (AMD athelon 64 X2), then when I tried to boot into linux I now get an error saying the ramdrive is full, followed by an error "Kernel Panic - Not syncing: VFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block (0,0)"
[06:55] <newguy> Any ideas?
[06:55] <CocoAUS> newguy
[06:55] <newguy> yes?
[06:55] <calux> hello
[06:55] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: no luck
[06:55] <CocoAUS> it sounds like windows wrote to your hdd where it shouldn't have
[06:56] <Jordan_U> bz0b, well, this is interesting.... I just checked my glxinfo output to compare, and I am having the same problem as you :)
[06:56] <bz0b> what is the package for ssh server
[06:56] <Lilacor> newguy: I concur.
[06:56] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: so you set it to a valid ip in your dhcp range and no luck?
[06:56] <HiddenHax> anyone installed americas army?
[06:56] <CocoAUS> can you check to see if the partition for ubuntu still exists?
[06:56] <Lilacor> bz0b: most likely openssh
[06:56] <bz0b> Jordan_U, yes cause i play video games with cedega
[06:56] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: yes
[06:56] <newguy> CocoAUS: How can I do that from windows?
[06:56] <Lilacor> bz0b: most likely openssh-server
[06:56] <tondar> hey all
[06:56] <HiddenHax> hello
[06:56] <CocoAUS> go into my computer or whatever and see if it lists an unknown parition
[06:56] <tondar> how would I update pidgin from 2.0.0 to 2.0.1 ?
[06:57] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: and i re-tried sudo dhclient eth0
[06:57] <Lilacor> tondar: easily...download the tarball and compile it
[06:57] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: when you ifconfig it shows your static info that you put in?
[06:57] <feross> bz0b: try ssh as in apt-get install ssh
[06:57] <tondar> Lilacor: will it update itself?
[06:57] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: no
[06:57] <jeeaar> what would you guys suggest using for someone new to packet sniffing/retrieving?
[06:58] <CocoAUS> try using ethereal, jeeaar
[06:58] <Lilacor> tondar: if you consider compiling and overwriting the original binary updating itself, then yes
[06:58] <CocoAUS> lots of tutorials for that
[06:58] <jeeaar> i had a hard time getting a howto for debian/ubuntu
[06:58] <Lilacor> 
[06:58] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: when you ifconfig it should spit your info back out to you...do an ifdown eth0 and ifup eth0
[06:58] <CocoAUS> look at the gentoo forums for good info on etheral
[06:58] <feross> jeeaar: wireshark .. used to be ethereal. not for the faint of heart tho no matter what sniffer you use.
[06:58] <tondar> Lilacor: how do I overwrite the original binary?
[06:59] <Taime1> How Do I Get Svideo Working?
[06:59] <Lilacor> tondar: compile it and 'make install'
[06:59] <newguy> Swap and ubuntu partitions both appear to still exist.
[06:59] <Lilacor> tondar: it works fine
[06:59] <tondar> Lilacor: o, ok
[06:59] <tondar> thanks
[06:59] <jeeaar> cool, thanks. Im a quick learner.
[06:59] <CocoAUS> that's interesting, newguy
[06:59] <Lilacor> tondar: I'm using it right now
[06:59] <newguy> cockaigne: They are both there and listed as 'unknown' (swap and ubuntu)
[06:59] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: i forgot to set the static IP on the machine as well as the router, one sec
[06:59] <Cosmo__> can anyoe make any suggestion as to good motherboards to go with a AMDfx x2 5600 processor and a nvidia 7950gt video card
[06:59] <feross> jeeaar: if you're looking for general bandwidth usage like on a T1 from a router, MRTG should do the trick
[06:59] <tondar> Lilacor: cool
[06:59] <CocoAUS> try simply reinstalling GRUB
[06:59] <tondar> Lilacor: you got the bin from pidgin site?
[06:59] <newguy> How can I tell if I'm using LiLO or GRUB?
[06:59] <Lilacor> tondar: no
[07:00] <tondar> Lilacor: how about a deb file?
[07:00] <CocoAUS> did you install using the ubuntu livecd?
[07:00] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: just make sure the you set an ip on the computer in the range of the dhcp pool on the router
[07:00] <Lilacor> tondar: I said tarball
[07:00] <jrattner> How do I add w32codecs and use the restricted drivers manager in ubuntu
[07:00] <tondar> Lilacor: oh yeah
[07:00] <bz0b> when u get in
[07:00] <jrattner> !w32codecs
[07:00] <Lilacor> tondar: tarball
[07:00] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[07:00] <newguy> Yes, I believe so, but I remember one didn't work so I ended up using the other.
[07:00] <CocoAUS> ubuntu uses GRUB
[07:00] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: I did, I just set it to the static IP I chose on the router
[07:00] <Lilacor> GRUB is superior to LILO
[07:00] <CocoAUS> agreed
[07:01] <bruenig> Lilacor, how?
[07:01] <newguy> I'm just afraid of losing my working windows parition.
[07:01] <tondar> Lilacor: how about if I find a deb will that also update last version overwriting or will it be a new install
[07:01] <tondar> ?
[07:01] <newguy> I will make a drive image of what I have now, then start playing around with it.
[07:01] <newguy> Thanks for the help though.
[07:01] <Lilacor> Moms prefer GRUB over LILO nine times out of ten for their kids Linux clusters!
[07:01] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: that's odd, it didn't retain my setting
[07:01] <feross> newguy: hey one minute
[07:01] <newguy> Yes?
[07:01] <CocoAUS> i've never played with lilo
[07:01] <CocoAUS> except i think in mandrake
[07:01] <feross> newguy: were you mounting the ext fs on windows?
[07:02] <newguy> huh, what?
[07:02] <bruenig> CocoAUS, you have never played with it, yet you know grub is superior to it?
[07:02] <newguy> English?
[07:02] <Taime1> whats wrong with lilo?
[07:02] <Lilacor> Taime1: nothing *wrong* with it
[07:02] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: it keeps on saying default gateway invalid
[07:02] <CocoAUS> i played with it in mandrake, but have little experience with it
[07:02] <CocoAUS> from my limited involvement, i like grub more
[07:02] <newguy> feross: I don't understand your wuestion.
[07:02] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: just set the pool on the router for like 10 addresses (ie. 192.168.1.100-109) and set the computer to 192.168.1.105
[07:02] <tondar> Lilacor: how about if I find a deb will that also update last version overwriting or will it be a new install ?
[07:02] <feross> newguy: were you accessing the linux partition from windows?
[07:02] <CocoAUS> bewguy, he's asking if you mounted your linux (ext3 filesystem) in windows
[07:03] <Lilacor> tondar: you're asking the wrong person
[07:03] <bruenig> in the age of the live cd, grub really has nothing, the only thing that is ever tauted is the command line interface, but it is far harder to learn all of that syntax than it is to pop in a live cd and edit the lilo.conf
[07:03] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: they can be the same address
[07:03] <newguy> feross: No, never.
[07:03] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: that's kind of funny, that's EXACTLY how I have it!
[07:03] <tondar> Lilacor: y?
[07:03] <bruenig> touted*
[07:03] <CocoAUS> newguy, you just updated your firmware?
[07:03] <Lilacor> tondar: do you want to install pidgin 2.0.1 or not?
[07:03] <feross> newguy: oh, ok never mind then. Sometimes if you access the linux partition from windows and hibernate instead of shutting down there are problems.
[07:03] <darkcrab> is there a way to get a DVD of ubuntustudio?
[07:03] <tondar> Lilacor: yes :P
[07:03] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: your neighbors house number is not the same as yours...the postman gets confused and so does your router
[07:03] <newguy> CocoAUS: I thought it was just a driver update, didn't even think it was firmware.
[07:04] <waseem> Does anyone know how to find out what the memory card is on their computer?
[07:04] <tondar> Lilacor: gimme the like to tar ??
[07:04] <Lilacor> tondar: then stop babbling, download the tarball, extract it, run ./configure and then install it
[07:04] <feross> newguy: windows locks the partition and linux can't get back into it until you shutdown the windows install.
[07:04] <tondar> Lilacor: k
[07:04] <tondar> Lilacor: link?
[07:04] <Lilacor> tondar: go to the website and download it
[07:04] <feross> newguy: capish?
[07:04] <tondar> Lilacor: k
[07:04] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: so set the pool for like 10 addresses and use one from that pool on the puter
[07:04] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: sorry, I don't understand the analogy
[07:04] <newguy> feross:Yes, but I don't think that's it, I don't even have hibernate enabled on this windows PC.
[07:05] <CocoAUS> newguy, i'd suggest asking on ubuntuforums.org, they'll probably be able to help you better.  your driver update must have written to your drive somwhere and messed up the tables
[07:05] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: the router is the gateway...it is the entry/exit point of external traffic
[07:05] <feross> newguy: yeah just figured I'd ask.
[07:05] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: my pool IS set from 100-110, and I set thhe machine to be 105
[07:05] <newguy> CocoAUS: Thank you, I am going to make a drive image of what I have now, and then put up a post and start messing around.
[07:05] <darkcrab> does anyone know if I can get a DVD of ubuntustudio?
[07:05] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: then that should work
[07:05] <tondar> Lilacor: is it tar.bz2
[07:05] <tondar> ?
[07:05] <purpzey> !pastebin
[07:05] <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)
[07:06] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: I know, but it's not
[07:06] <Lilacor> tondar: yes
[07:06] <aubade> How could I try for network auto-configuration much like what is done in the installer after an install?
[07:06] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: if you have traffic in /var/log/messages it may give you insight into the issue
[07:06] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: if i try to ping itself (192.168.0.105), it says host unreachable
[07:06] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: cat /var/log/messages
[07:07] <Taime1> How Do I Get Svideo Working?
[07:07] <guspad_> i installed a new version of fglrx but logs said that kernel is trying to load the old module
[07:07] <darkcrab> anybody?
[07:07] <guspad_> how can i fix that ?
[07:07] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: 0.105.....what is your netmask?
[07:07] <CocoAUS> darkcrab, probably not
[07:07] <darkcrab> thank you coco.
[07:07] <CocoAUS> you'd have to download it
[07:07] <jcole> Taime1: which video card?
[07:07] <Lilacor> darkcrab: ubuntustudio?
[07:07] <sx66> hi
[07:07] <CocoAUS> or pay for it from a website
[07:07] <darkcrab> yes lila
[07:08] <Taime1> jcole: ati mobility m300
[07:08] <jibberish> how does one copy text with keyboard? ctrl v pastes fine, ctrl +shift+c doesnt copy for me or ctrl +c, i have to use mouse
[07:08] <Lilacor> dunno, sorry
[07:08] <sx66> my friends just crashed my system in the shell
[07:08] <jcole> Taime1: lspci | grep VGA
[07:08] <CocoAUS> jibberish, are you talking in general or just in the terminal?
[07:08] <jibberish> general
[07:08] <darkcrab> guspad, have you checked to see what your exec command is pointing to? Maybe it is pointing to the old file and not the new one.
[07:08] <CocoAUS> are you using the left or right ctrl key?
[07:08] <jibberish> left
[07:09] <Taime1> jcole: i said ati mobility m300
[07:09] <CocoAUS> hmmm...i dunno, then.  i know the right ctrl key is messed upby default.  other than that, i've got nothin.  sorry
[07:09] <jibberish> yours works?
[07:09] <CocoAUS> yeah
[07:09] <CocoAUS> oh, wait
[07:09] <jcole> Taime1: do you know which radeon driver it's using? or are you using fglrx?
[07:09] <CocoAUS> nevermind, i have no idea
[07:09] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: your gateway is going to be your router address...if it is 0.x then that is fine, as long as you are routing to the right network...i got the feeling that you are using 1.x on your windows machines
[07:09] <Lilacor> oh great...microsoft is now claiming they invented a new UI
[07:09] <jibberish> lol
[07:09] <Lilacor> http://download.microsoft.com/download/a/9/5/a9579d84-bb59-4fab-bf4c-53008a8a9b6e/MicrosoftSurfacing_on10.wmv
[07:10] <Taime1> jcole: fglrx
[07:10] <PokerFacePenguin> juanvalde: what is the ip of one of your windows machines
[07:10] <juanvalde> PokerFacePenguin: Thanks for trying, but I gotta run. I really appreciate all the help. No matter how I set the IP and netmask, it somehow gets reset. I will try yo return later.
[07:10] <jeeaar> does wireshack/ethereal employ and packet editing tools?
[07:10] <jeeaar> *any
[07:10] <jcole> Taime1: you should really use the open source driver, unless it's a laptop
[07:11] <Taime1> jcole: it is
[07:11] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: that's really interesting...
[07:11] <HiddenHax> has anyone tried Americas Army?
[07:11] <CocoAUS> nope
[07:11] <CocoAUS> heard it's awesome, though
[07:11] <jeeaar> yes, it's a very good game
[07:11] <demonspork> HiddenHax, yes
[07:12] <HiddenHax> does it take a lot of cpu?
[07:12] <demonspork> not a lot
[07:12] <demonspork> it runs on a 1.5 athlon single core, but not the SF maps or very large maps
[07:12] <jcole> Taime1: man aticonfig
[07:12] <paroxsym> is there a /dev/random in ubuntu and if so, is it random or pseudorandom?
[07:13] <demonspork> .
[07:13] <Taime1> jcole: no man page for it
[07:13] <jcole> Taime1: you need to first do aticonfig --initial=dual-monitor
[07:13] <Frogzoo> paroxsym: /dev/random
[07:13] <Frogzoo> paroxsym: but you can answer that yourself, of course
[07:14] <demonspork> what is your favorite torrent client for Ubuntu?
[07:14] <Taime1> jcole: man ati config returned
[07:14] <paroxsym> Frogzoo: i could, yes, but i don't feel like running cryptanalysis on it
[07:14] <jcole> Taime1: aticonfig | less
[07:14] <CocoAUS> demonspork, i just use the built-in gnome client
[07:14] <Frogzoo> paroxsym: it's crypto generated - ie. pseudorandom
[07:14] <CocoAUS> other clients clobber my router with overhead
[07:15] <paroxsym> Frogzoo: definitely not truly random?
[07:15] <CocoAUS> other than that, i suggest Deluge, Ktorrent, or Azureus
[07:15] <Frogzoo> paroxsym: pretty sure
[07:15] <aubade> Deluge is probably best if you're already using Xfce/Gnome.
[07:15] <Frogzoo> paroxsym: check the kernel source
[07:15] <demonspork> cocoAUS and what would that be???????:??
[07:15] <jcole> Taime1: that split your fglrx driver to control both your monitor and your 2nd monitor (svideo,vga/dvi,etc.)
[07:16] <CocoAUS> the built-in gnome client, demonspork?
[07:16] <sx66> how do you fix the resolution on ubuntu?
[07:16] <Nergar> Jordan_U: how do i automatically create a menu.lst including all my OS???
[07:16] <CocoAUS> i'm not sure what the name is, probably just gnome bittorrent.  it opens when you double-click a .torrent file
[07:16] <jibberish> does anyone know the command to copy just text? i know cp is copy file
[07:16] <demonspork> hmm
[07:16] <Madpilot> demonspork, the default gnometorrent isn't bad, but I use Deluge a lot these days
[07:16] <CocoAUS> sx66, i have a tutorial that works perfectly for resolution
[07:16] <Jordan_U> Nergar, sudo update-grub
[07:17] <sx66> send it
[07:17] <CocoAUS> http://othello.alma.edu/~07tmhopk/ubuntuhowto.html#resolution
[07:17] <Taime1> jcole: initial=dual-head works
[07:17] <Chutchonook> hello
[07:17] <CocoAUS> i love deluge, but 1) it has a lot of overhead, and 2) it is unstable for me, won't even start on my current install
[07:17] <Nergar> Jordan_U: it only created entries for ubuntu, i also need debian and XP
[07:18] <darkcrab> that surface computing looks cool
[07:18] <Taime1> jcole: this was in my output: aticonfig: Writing to '/etc/X11/xorg.conf' failed. Bad file descriptor.
[07:18] <netdaemon> how would i go about scalling the frequency of my cpu in gnome?
[07:19] <darkcrab> has anyone used Wubi?
[07:19] <CocoAUS> netdaemon, try using gfreqlet
[07:19] <Jordan_U> Nergar, It should have, you can add them manually though
[07:19] <rollerskatejamms> gfreqlet rocks
[07:20] <Lilacor> cerealkiller219: yes but microsoft didn't create the UI
[07:20] <CocoAUS> it does
[07:20] <Lilacor> cerealkiller219: but you know they're going to try to pass it off as their own
[07:20] <purpzey> I have having difficulty make/make installing ndiswrapper, I cannot use apt-get install, b/c the machine doesn't have the internet, I am getting permission/cannot find file errors....but using sudo, any ideas?
[07:20] <CocoAUS> you can also do it manually, but i'm not that knowledgeable about the commands for it
[07:21] <CocoAUS> cpufreq-selector -f (frequency value) works
[07:21] <darkcrab> trying to get your network card to work purp?
[07:21] <inflex> where does Ubuntu get the drive-ID's used in fstab and grub?
[07:21] <purpzey> darkcrab: That's the plan...
[07:21] <darkcrab> its really hard, but check around on forums.
[07:21] <darkcrab> you have to compile ndiswrapper with the driver for your card.
[07:21] <purpzey> darkcrab: I found the forums and guide
[07:21] <darkcrab> oh o.k
[07:21] <kludge> hi im trying to get my cam going but when i try to mkake install   aptitude install libpt-plugins-v4l2 v4l2ucp subversion libsdl1.2-dev  i get Building USB Video Class driver...
[07:21] <kludge> cd: 1: can't cd to /lib/modules/2.6.20-15-386/build
[07:21] <sx66> for fomatting should I use entire disk?
[07:22] <kludge> make: *** [uvcvideo]  Error 2
[07:22] <kludge> why does that happen pls help?
[07:22] <purpzey> darkcrab: But I am trying to follow the instructions on the ndiswrapper page. and failing to make and make install
[07:22] <CocoAUS> inflex, why not ignore the UUID if it's not working and just use relative paths?
[07:22] <darkcrab> are you sure you have your code and paths correct?
[07:22] <CocoAUS> sx66, do you have anything else you want installed (windows) on the harddrive?
[07:22] <kludge> can anyone please help me with my creative cam?
[07:22] <Meglo> http://www.microsoft.com/surface/
[07:22] <Gerro> hey where can I purchase a xubuntu cd?
[07:22] <purpzey> darkcrab: I haven't touched anything, I just un-tared it and was following the directions n that page.
[07:22] <inflex> CocoAUS: well, that's what I was hoping for... except things just didn't want to boot :\
[07:23] <inflex> CocoAUS: first time I've done a PATA -> SATA transfer for booting
[07:23] <sx66> I would like to install windows on it later
[07:23] <darkcrab> do you have root privileges?
[07:23] <CocoAUS> what's in your fstab?
[07:23] <inflex> well, I can get it to chain to the SATA drive (/dev/sda) from grub, but the kernel then barfs before getting anywhere (just stalls)
[07:23] <purpzey> darkcrab: sudo
[07:23] <inflex> UUID=5b8b5cf1-ae35-4cf5-af93-762dc49ab3da /               ext3    defaults,errors=remount-ro 0       1
[07:23] <CocoAUS> sx66, do it manually, and make sure you leave about 10 gigs for windows if you can
[07:23] <darkcrab> you might have to login as root first, then do sudo, then make
[07:24] <netdaemon> what package is gfreqlet part of?
[07:24] <muriu> Wasup everyone! God bless Linux!
[07:24] <CocoAUS> inflex, you don't have a mount point specified
[07:24] <sx66> drivers suck
[07:24] <inflex> CocoAUS: yes there is, right after the UUID
[07:24] <darkcrab> just look up logging in as root.
[07:24] <CocoAUS> oh, crap, missed it
[07:24] <inflex> CocoAUS: there's a space after it
[07:24] <inflex> :)
[07:24] <aubade> sx66: Indeed, we don't need hardware/software interaction.
[07:24] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: who did then?
[07:24] <purpzey> darkcrab: I thought root was no good?
[07:24] <inflex> CocoAUS: anyhow, that's not the primary issue - since I'm not even getting the kernel going yet
[07:25] <purpzey> darkcrab: and if I log in as root, why would I need sudo?
[07:25] <inflex> CocoAUS: I think I might have the rdev wrong on the kernel on the sata drive
[07:25] <sx66> CoCo: back to scanning disks
[07:25] <Lilacor> cerealkiller219: I've seen this as a university project years ago
[07:25] <darkcrab> I just remember having a similar problem with ubuntu doing make, and its because it registers as the current user so sudo doesn't work.
[07:25] <CocoAUS> hmmmm
[07:25] <darkcrab> So I had to login as root before I ran the code.
[07:26] <darkcrab> as in give myself admin privileges.
[07:26] <darkcrab> cause it wouldn't compile under the current user.
[07:26] <purpzey> Lilacor: Is it safe/necessary to log in as root to install ndiswrapper, I am getting priviliege errors..
[07:26] <kludge> anyone pls help with my cam? it is a creative Live! cam and i am running feisty. EasyCam2 doesnt recognize it.. i dont know what to do!
[07:26] <Lilacor> purpzey: aren't you using 'sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper' ???
[07:27] <sx66> ah, it takes too long
[07:27] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: tight
[07:27] <nj786> can anybody help me fix my sound
[07:27] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: this is amazing
[07:27] <nj786> i screwed it up
[07:27] <inflex> bbl
[07:27] <CocoAUS> sx66, just scanning disks shouldn't take long at all
[07:27] <Lilacor> cerealkiller219: pretty nice looking UI...
[07:27] <darkcrab> kludge probably indiswrapper.
[07:27] <CocoAUS> see ya inflex
[07:27] <purpzey> Lilacor: I can't b/c the machine has no networking, I got the tarball on their via USB - Flash drive.
[07:27] <Lilacor> cerealkiller219: practical or not..we'll see
[07:27] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: it's unbelievable
[07:27] <sx66> it is stuck at 46%
[07:27] <K`zan> Ever since I switched to Feisty I have had nothing but trouble with USB that I didn't have under Edgy or Gentoo, anyone else experience this?
[07:27] <amattas> does Ubuntu have Java Application server and Java 6 available for J2EE apps?
[07:27] <Ktron> So if a 7.04 AMD 64 Disc boots, but when an option is selected the screen show loading, flash a little more text than go blank and lose signal, If there much to do but try the Alternative CD?
[07:27] <Lilacor> cerealkiller219: I'm stuck on hotel DSL so I'm still downloading the movie
[07:27] <n2diy_> nj786: so unscrew it! :) What happened?
[07:27] <Ktron> Or, heh, try the i386 CD?
[07:27] <kludge> its nit wirelesss
[07:28] <CocoAUS> ubuntu does have java 6
[07:28] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: aww,
[07:28] <Lilacor> purpzey: I see
[07:28] <CocoAUS> try ubuntuguide.org
[07:28] <kludge> kzan maybe thats why im running feisty.
[07:28] <CocoAUS> sx66, you can try just stopping the installer and restarting it if you want
[07:28] <amattas> what about j2ee support?
[07:28] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: im about 2/3 through
[07:28] <CocoAUS> the ubuntu installer is horribly unstable
[07:28] <Madpilot> ubotu, java | amattas

[07:28] <sx66> how do you get the bottom task bar to the top like this screen shot http://othello.alma.edu/~07tmhopk/ubuntu.png
[07:28] <purpzey> Lilacor: So, I am getting "cannot create directory -- permission denied" even with sudo...I know generally root is not enouraged in the channel, is this a situation that calls for it?
[07:29] <Lilacor> cerealkiller219: done
[07:29] <flake> does 7zip do a good enough job of compressing avi's
[07:29] <Lilacor> purpzey: where are you trying to create a directory?
[07:29] <n2diy_> sx66: right click on it, and go into properties.
[07:29] <Ktron> sx66: Drag
[07:29] <darkcrab> thats exactly what happened to me purp
[07:29] <CocoAUS> sx66, right-click on the top bar and choose "add to panel"
[07:29] <nj786> n2diy, is there  away to like reset the sound in terminal
[07:29] <kludge> i have not been able to find a grub help page for my situation. i have ubuntu and win2003 and dont know how to set up my system so i can choose between them at boot...
[07:29] <CocoAUS> then add the "window list"
[07:29] <CocoAUS> then i just deleted the bottom panel altogether

[07:30] <Ktron> blubuntu?
[07:30] <CocoAUS> it's just a theme meta-package
[07:30] <n2diy_> nj786: enter alsa?
[07:30] <sx66> where is the exe for it?
[07:31] <demonspork> kludge, usually Grub gets set up automatically during the install to boot either OS
[07:31] <darkcrab> purp, look up problems running sudo or doesn't recognize root
[07:31] <CocoAUS> it includes wallpaper, gtk theme, window theme, etc
[07:31] <Ktron> ah
[07:31] <amattas> there was nothing on that site relating to j2ee
[07:31] <CocoAUS> just install it via terminal, type: sudo aptitude install blubuntu-look
[07:31] <Lilacor> purpzey: sorry, not sure.
[07:31] <Lilacor> purpzey: maybe you can use 'sudo -s' and then try again
[07:31] <demonspork> kludge, if you installed Win2003 after you installed ubuntu, check ou the guids I refered you to
[07:31] <sx66> last time I had installed something it crashed and did not start with a error 15
[07:31] <nj786> n2diy, i dono what i did

[07:31] <CocoAUS> after you install it, just go to System > Preferences > Theme and select the details
[07:32] <CocoAUS> sx66, it's not a program, it won't crash
[07:32] <CocoAUS> it just downloads files, basically
[07:32] <n2diy_> nj786: enter alsa in a terminal.
[07:32] <sx66> cool. I asked in the #hak5 channel and they crashed it fast.

[07:33] <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).

[07:35] <chris-a> hi
[07:36] <sx66> hi
[07:36] <chris-a> i have a quick question about lpr
[07:36] <purpzey> darkcrab: Admittedly, you may be right, and I apologize for questioning you, how did you create the root account and boot into it?
[07:36] <darkcrab> does there exist, what you would consider, "a safe" method of installing ubuntu inside windows?
[07:37] <chris-a>  i'm trying to install my borther mfc6220 i got the lpr package installed and the cups file is nest but the
[07:37] <chris-a> commandprompt is saying the lpr admin is refusing my connection
[07:37] <muriu> Guys, does anyone know where i can get software for audio to text conversion?
[07:37] <sx66> http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html
[07:37] <darkcrab> there is a way to log into root from terminal. Ubuntu has this problem or "safeguard" of blocking people out of root. If that doesn't work, you may indeed have to boot into the ubuntu root account.
[07:37] <shiestermiester> gday everybody
[07:38] <muriu> All i can get is text to audio, but i want the other way round
[07:38] <darkcrab> i think logging into root works though.
[07:38] <amattas> Hey one other question... Santa Rosa laptops.. am I gonna have problems installing onto?
[07:38] <EViLGiMp> either sudo <command> or sudo passwd root
[07:38] <chris-a> okay... i'm sort of new to linux well educational wise how do i go about loggin into root? just open root terminal?
[07:39] <muriu> Of course i'm using the software on ubuntu!
[07:39] <EViLGiMp> read above chris-a
[07:39] <sx66> 64% done

[07:39] <sx66> lol, how old are you chris?
[07:39] <chris-a> and and ubuntu rocks
[07:39] <EViLGiMp> the second command will create a password for the root user
[07:39] <chris-a> 24
[07:39] <muriu> sx66, can you help with this?
[07:39] <EViLGiMp> then all you need to do is su root
[07:39] <sx66> what?

[07:41] <muriu> Gerro, what?
[07:41] <sx66> nope, I am installing linux for the 2nd time due to hak5.org crashing my system
[07:41] <Gerro> muriu: it can convert audio to text and text to audio, lots of stuff
[07:41] <IICV> How do you make kinit not run on boot?
[07:41] <darkcrab> you should always run a live CD first if you can.
[07:41] <sx66> Live CD
[07:41] <muriu> Gerro, so the software is called festival?
[07:41] <Gerro> muriu: I prefer the british accent to festival

[07:43] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: I bet it wouldnt be too hard
[07:43] <kludge> lilacor, that page you sent me might be helpful if i could understand it! i am finding all grub help pages are written for a different level of skill than im familiar with..
[07:43] <IICV> It's trying to resume from a saved image of the swap, and seems to take a couple of seconds to realize that there is none.
[07:43] <n2diy> IICV: yes
[07:43] <IICV> How do I disable that?
[07:43] <kludge> i wish there was a graphical front end for it maybe? or..im not sure?
[07:43] <darkcrab> like if you run ubuntu live and it doesn't detect your network card, you pretty much know your going to have to either edit the network settings manually or use ndiswrapper
[07:43] <Lilacor> cerealkiller219: You're pretty optimistic. :P
[07:43] <sx66> lol
[07:43] <purpzey> Lilacor: I have a root term via sudo -i, but ls is showing me no files in that dir and no dirs...Any help?
[07:43] <sx66> ;P
[07:43] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: People are nieve, they see microsoft and something "new in technology" and they go for it
[07:43] <n2diy> IICV: You can't, that intializes your system.
[07:44] <sx66> ahhh, sleep
[07:44] <darkcrab> could be hidden purp
[07:44] <Lilacor> purpzey: it looks like your system is asking for kernel headers
[07:44] <IICV> Yah but it seems like it spends a few seconds trying to resume from an image.
[07:44] <n2diy> IICV: what is init complaining about?
[07:44] <Lilacor> purpzey: install the kernel headers that correspond to your kernel version and try again
[07:44] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: but you're right, who knows :)
[07:44] <IICV> Oh nothing.
[07:44] <darkcrab> ah that makes since lila
[07:45] <purpzey> Lilacor: I think they are there. . .but ndiswrapper won't access them via sudo....I mean, It's a fresh install. . .
[07:45] <IICV> It just pauses for a few seconds at "trying to resume from /dev/mapper/ubuntu-swap_1"
[07:45] <Lilacor> cerealkiller219: all of this blah blah blah "WE'LL MAKE GAZILLIONS!" makes me ill
[07:45] <guspad> hi
[07:45] <darkcrab> sometimes you have to recompile your kernel purp

[07:45] <guspad> how can i get ride of this http://pastebin.ca/521433
[07:45] <Lilacor> purpzey: if you say the directories aren't there....then the headers aren't installed...
[07:45] <purpzey> darkcrab: Just to install ndiswrapper?
[07:45] <guspad> i just installed last version of fglrx
[07:45] <darkcrab> yea
[07:46] <cerealkiller219> Lilacor: same here, makes me wanna invest :p
[07:46] <guspad> i also removed the repo drivers
[07:46] <purpzey> Lilacor: They are there from standard term, but not when I try to get a root term via sudo -i
[07:46] <Lilacor> purpzey: what about just using sudo -s to get a su shell?

[07:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about peanuts - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:58] <fotoflo> Lilacor, k cool
[07:58] <HKJGN> Gerro: actually, my problems stem from the monitor itself, the vert and sync, and also cause if i use the standard config tool, it doesnt locate my graphics card cause its PCI express
[07:58] <fotoflo> i think my apt-get is broken though
[07:58] <sx66> how do I back up my xconfig?
[07:58] <fotoflo> what is sasl2-bin
[07:58] <Lilacor> fotoflo: you'll have to fix that first then
[07:58] <Lilacor> sx66: cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.back
[07:59] <HKJGN> sx66: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etcX11/xorg.conf(add something here so it doesnt overwrite the actual xorg file)
[07:59] <purpzey> What's the command to search my file system for a particular file?
[07:59] <fotoflo> Lilacor, do you know what sasl2-bin is?
[07:59] <Lilacor> fotoflo: no...should I?

[08:00] <n2diy> purpzey: locate <filename>
[08:00] <Lilacor> fotoflo: sounds like an authentication abstraction program
[08:01] <Gerro> fotoflo sounds like a sex position involving a taco
[08:01] <HKJGN> -headbangs and waits for a question he can help answer, wich is very rarely-
[08:01] <sx66> is that in the terminal?
[08:01] <Lilacor> sx66: yes
[08:01] <sx66> k
[08:01] <HKJGN> sx66: yeah, basically you just make a copy of the file

[08:01] <chris-a> you still wating for a question
[08:02] <fotoflo> for some reason its giving me errors everytime i use apt-get
[08:02] <Lilacor> sx66: you have to know how to use the command line with *nix...
[08:02] <fotoflo> any idea how to fix this?
[08:02] <Lilacor> fotoflo: such as?
[08:02] <sx66> permission is denied
[08:02] <Lilacor> fotoflo: since you give me no details, I won't help you
[08:02] <HKJGN> chris-a: i kinda suck, what can i help you with?
[08:02] <HKJGN> sx66: use sudo
[08:02] <sx66> k
[08:02] <Lilacor> sx66: did you put sudo in front of that?
[08:02] <HKJGN> infront of the command
[08:02] <sx66> no
[08:02] <chris-a> okay i typed: dpkg -i --force-overwrite /home/chris/Desktop/cupswrappermfc3220c_1.0.0-2_i386.deb

[08:03] <ZonkSJx> Hello. I was trying to run wubi but it wasnt booting properly. I thought that it may be because My drive is a dynamic disk. Will Wubi run on a dynamic disk?
[08:03] <rahbin> thank you to dawn and Gnea for your help yesterday.
[08:04] <darkcrab> i don't have an answer, but a curious question zonk, did you already download the ISO and finish setup?
[08:04] <purpzey> Lilacor: I've tracked down that the compile is actually looking for libraries stdlib.h etc, and there aren't on my file system...Is there a dev package i am missing?
[08:04] <ZonkSJx> yep
[08:04] <Gnea> rahbin: you're welcome
[08:04] <HKJGN> chris-a: O.o.. well, thats certainly out of my jurisdiction.. somehow there was a syntax error though, what is this for?
[08:04] <Gnea> wow, awesome timing
[08:04] <Lilacor> purpzey: :-/
[08:04] <rahbin> + purpzey. thanks as well.
[08:04] <Lilacor> purpzey: 'sudo apt-get install build-essentials'
[08:04] <darkcrab> I was thinking about running wubi myself, but that concerns me.
[08:04] <chris-a> to install the cups wrap for my borther mfc-6220c
[08:04] <ZonkSJx> It was giving an 81 error.. telling me to run fdisk
[08:05] <purpzey> Lilacor: Is there somewhere I can download it and transfer via USB?
[08:05] <darkcrab> after a reboot zonk?
[08:05] <chris-a> i have to learn to type the name before i type
[08:05] <fotoflo> Lilacor, http://paste.uni.cc/15904
[08:05] <ZonkSJx> it seemed that it didnt recognize the drive as a microsoft drive
[08:05] <HKJGN> i see
[08:05] <ZonkSJx> yes
[08:05] <HKJGN> lol
[08:05] <Lilacor> purpzey: I'd just say...use a DVD
[08:05] <darkcrab> what operating system are you running zonk?
[08:05] <purpzey> Lilacor: Either way, where can I get the package?
[08:05] <chris-a> not used to irc anymore lol
[08:05] <ZonkSJx> windows xp
[08:05] <Lilacor> purpzey: that's a metapackage
[08:05] <Lilacor> purpzey: and I don't know what's in it
[08:06] <Gnea> ZonkSJx: at least it's not vista :)
[08:06] <purpzey> Lilacor: Is it on the livecd?
[08:06] <ZonkSJx> haha yea
[08:06] <Lam_> i need help. i'm looking for a program that can take a downloaded .rm file that contains address information, connect to said address and rip the video from that address and download it locally
[08:06] <sx66> where did it back up at? sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[08:06] <Lilacor> purpzey: maybe... it *should* be
[08:06] <darkcrab> have you read this zonk: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=234
[08:06] <|_ocke> anyone have any preference or opinion on Nautilus vs Thunar (or other filemanager you think is better)
[08:07] <purpzey> Lilacor: If I find it on the CD what's the command, just install /dir/dir ?
[08:07] <Lilacor> fotoflo: sorry, no idea.
[08:07] <ZonkSJx> Hmm. I'll take a look
[08:07] <big_boy> i need help with the following "E subprocess  script returned error exit status 2 linux image 2.6 20 16 generic"
[08:07] <Lilacor> purpzey: I'm pretty sure you have to add your CD to your sources through synaptic
 mc
[08:07] <fotoflo> BROKEN APT-GET, http://paste.uni.cc/15904  <---- can anyone help?
[08:07] <darkcrab> what version of the beta are you running zonk?
[08:07] <Gnea> big_boy: could you paste the entire error to pastebin?
[08:07] <rahbin> does anyone know how to re-enable the ' button on the keyboard? I have a laptop keyboard set-up on US International, and it requires me to press the " ' " key + the space bar to get an apostrophe
[08:07] <fotoflo> i think this happened after a dist-upgrade
[08:07] <purpzey> Lilacor: How please?
[08:08] <rahbin> the same goes for quotation marks.
[08:08] <big_boy> what is a paste bin?
[08:08] <Lilacor> !pastebin
[08:08] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:08] <Gnea> that :)
[08:08] <sander> hi
[08:08] <big_boy> !pastebin
[08:08] <ZonkSJx> the latest.. lemme see 7.0.4\
[08:08] <n2diy> fotoflo: when was the upgrade?
[08:08] <fotoflo> a few weeks ago
[08:08] <Lilacor> purpzey: do you have you original install CD/DVD?
[08:08] <sander> how is the best way to copy em paste from the xterm console? some good soul can help-me?
[08:08] <purpzey> Lilacor: Forget it, it popped up, I am idiot.
[08:09] <fotoflo> n2diy, been busy with other stuff since then....
[08:09] <HKJGN> chris-a: i wish i had a printer, havent worked with one yet XD.. i dont think i can help you much, but check your syntax, cause it sounds like its looking for cups, and not the cupswrapper package youre working with, might be a space somewere
[08:09] <n2diy> fotoflo: did you have an update recently since then?
[08:09] <sander> i need to copy and paste texts from the xterm, somebody can help?
[08:09] <Lilacor> purpzey: trying to do it with a USB drive sounds as fun as snorting tabasco sauce
[08:09] <darkcrab> ok wubi sucks imho.
[08:09] <chris-a> alright will check
[08:09] <ZonkSJx> lol
[08:09] <darkcrab> you cannot access your windows partition with linux.
[08:09] <EADG_> sander: use your mouse.
[08:09] <darkcrab> sorry random opinion.
[08:09] <Lilacor> what's wubi?
[08:09] <HKJGN> chris-a: other than that, someone else here might know for sure whats going on
[08:10] <fotoflo> n2diy, i dont think so
[08:10] <ZonkSJx> Someone had written an article about on download.com
[08:10] <ZonkSJx> thought Id check it out
[08:10] <sander> EADG_: left and right buttons of mouse to copy? there is a other way?
[08:10] <chris-a> hkjgn;  it isn't really necessary to have the printer but i want to go linux full time you know
[08:10] <darkcrab> http://www.cutlersoftware.com/ubuntusetup/wubi/en-US/index.html
[08:10] <chamunks> I'm looking to get my lamp server running phpMyAdmin but for some reason when i go to mydomain.com/phpMyAdmin it jsut gives me a red box that says phpMyAdmin - Error (with no further text on the page) any ideas?
[08:10] <chris-a> hkjgn: i'll chck the syntax and see what happens
[08:10] <HKJGN> chris-a: of course, i use it full time too, and run games
[08:10] <Lilacor> oh crap
[08:10] <Lilacor> it's an alternative ubuntu installer?
[08:10] <Lilacor> ugh.
[08:10] <n2diy> fotoflo: roger that. I wonder how you could find out, other than checking logs?
[08:11] <rahbin> darkcrab: i've been able to read from my ntfs windows partition in ubuntu 7.04.
[08:11] <chris-a>  hkjgn: lol. i like to print alot of stuff though hehe...   like rubiks cube algs and thing of that sort hehe
[08:11] <decaf> hi, recommend a clipboard daemon for gnome please.
[08:11] <EADG_> sander: highlight, right click, copy... about the only way I know in xterm, unless your useing Screen.
[08:11] <Lilacor> decaf: if you installed ubuntu 7.04, it should already have one running
[08:11] <darkcrab> rahbin, I know most linux distros can, but wubi, that particular installer, makes it so you can't
[08:11] <HKJGN> chris-a: i see, it shouldnt be that hard to add a printer to ubuntu, it seems to be strong with additional applications
[08:12] <decaf> Lilacor: I'm using 7.04, copied text still goes with closed apps
[08:12] <darkcrab> heck, I can modify windows from a pendrive.
[08:12] <Lilacor> decaf: what do you mean?
[08:12] <HKJGN> chris-a:it was 40x easier to get my games running in Ubuntu than say Slackware, although i love both :3 lol
[08:12] <chris-a> hkjgn: yeah i just foudn the package search in firefox lol, i wondered how people knew what package did what
[08:12] <sander> EADG_: yes, but when i will paste the text in a text editor (kedit per example), don't make anything
[08:12] <sx66> what resolution do I set it as?
[08:12] <darkcrab> with wine HKJGN?
[08:13] <ZonkSJx> ahh well.. thanks for the help!
[08:13] <decaf> Lilacor: I copied a link from firefox. closed firefox. nothing to paste to gedit thrn.
[08:13] <sander> EADG_: this method, sometimes works, sometimes don't work
[08:13] <Lilacor> decaf: you must have done it wrong
[08:13] <big_boy> can ne1 help with the following issue: E: linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 2
[08:13] <chris-a> hkjgn: haven't had the pleasure of slack ware yet. is it like feebsd or something?
[08:13] <fotoflo> n2diy, when you say an update, what do you mean apt-get update?
[08:13] <HKJGN> darkcrab: yeah, i only really needed WoW, BF2142 wont run though, wich kinda shot down my whole idea of totally migrating to linux
[08:13] <decaf> Lilacor: it seems very simple
[08:13] <fotoflo> that ive done
[08:13] <rahbin> sander: if you have a mouse with 3 mouse buttons (left, middle scroll/button, and right button) highlighting (left-click and highlight) should copy and pressing the middle mouse button in your text entry should paste.
[08:13] <Lilacor> decaf: or you tried to copy an image of a URL
[08:13] <HKJGN> chris-a: first linux distro
[08:13] <rahbin> darkcrab: sorry, i was not aware of that program
[08:14] <Lilacor> decaf: you can copy paste with select to copy and middle mouse button to paste
[08:14] <HKJGN> chris-a: first its at like 10.x or something now, but its fast, reliable, and simple
[08:14] <chris-a> hkjgn: sweet... will have to check it out
[08:14] <Gnea> big_boy: why can't you use pastebin?
[08:14] <rahbin> still a newbie overall
[08:14] <bobsumone> how do I add /var/www to smb.conf if im using security = user?
[08:14] <Lilacor> !anyone > big_boy
[08:14] <Gnea> big_boy: i'm willing to help, just need every line from when you type until it ends
[08:14] <chris-a> hkjgn:  im trying to stay away from windows now its not that reliable to me haha
[08:14] <n2diy> fotoflo: umm, the update icon on your task bar, was that there a couple of days ago, and is it gone now? Stupid question, if it is gone now, how would no? Anyway/
[08:15] <bobsumone> im trying to run away from windows
[08:15] <bobsumone> its been long overdue for me, lol
[08:15] <sander> rahbin: i don't that, but this always give me problems
[08:15] <HKJGN> chris-a: i didnt really have trouble with windows, i just like new ideas
[08:15] <Lilacor> bobsumone: don't away from your problems, they'll only follow you
[08:15] <bobsumone> so does anyone know?
[08:15] <sander> rahbin: i know that, but this always give me problems
[08:15] <big_boy> i used pastebin now what>
[08:15] <Lilacor> !anyone > bobsumone
[08:15] <bobsumone>  lol Lilacor
[08:15] <bobsumone>  ?
[08:15] <n2diy> no/know
[08:15] <sander> rahbin: and some times this don't works
[08:15] <chamunks> I'm looking to get my lamp server running phpMyAdmin but for some reason when i go to mydomain.com/phpMyAdmin it jsut gives me a red box that says phpMyAdmin - Error (with no further text on the page) any ideas?
[08:15] <chris-a> bobsumone: yeah ive been using widows for 13 years its kind of boring now lol and vista really blows for the price you pay for it lol thats why i like linux its free hehe
[08:15] <Lilacor> bobsumone: maybe you'd have better luck in #samba?
[08:16] <HKJGN> chris-a: the biggest reason is free software, and the fact that noone can break my pc like in linux
[08:16] <sander> ranian: there is a other way that i can try? or a program?
[08:16] <HKJGN> er
[08:16] <Montaro> bobsumone: i know, one sec
[08:16] <Billhead> Hello, does anybody know if exim4 in the ubuntu repository is build with domainkeys support?

[08:17] <n2diy> cafuego: :) it is late, here anyway.
[08:17] <HKJGN> chris-a: i watched vista softcrash closing a window
[08:17] <Lilacor> princ3: what is your problem?

[08:18] <HKJGN> chris-a: i decided if i was going to have a headache, i wasnt going to pay 90$ for it
[08:18] <princ3> ok my question is when im installing and the option of partitioning comes up.... it only gives me the option of doing in manually or watevs and then when i click proceed the drive section is blank like gives me no drives to partition
[08:18] <chris-a> nhkjgn: i can def see that lol
[08:18] <n2diy> big_boy: give us a chance to read it.
[08:18] <big_boy> oh ... ok.. thx
[08:18] <HKJGN> Lilacor: its a drivers issue, alot, ALOT of people havent made suitable drivers for Vista
[08:18] <qiyong> !PostGrey
[08:18] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about postgrey - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:18] <chris-a> hkjgn: true here its like 99$ i went to get xp (full) and it was like 200 buck i said hell no haha
[08:19] <sander> rahbin: this method, highliting text to copy and 2 buttons to paste sometimes goes wrong
[08:19] <princ3> so wat do u do
[08:19] <rahbin> i cannot use the apostrophe or quotation key on my keyboard without my system 'pausing' to see whether or not i want to use it as an accent. how can i change it to assume i am mono-lingual in plain english?
[08:19] <chris-a> i retyped everything and got the same response.
[08:19] <rahbin> sander: do you have 3 buttons on your mouse?
[08:19] <princ3> like wat can i do... i run windows xp
[08:19] <Lilacor> princ3: first...I don't know what your partitioning goals are
[08:19] <thomax__> when a Wireless lan PCI card has an atheros chipset it should normally be compatible with linux?
[08:19] <chris-a> hkjgn: think a reboot would help? i know windows likes reboots hehe
[08:20] <princ3> well i wanna run windows and linux on same thing with the option of which one when us start up
[08:20] <inflex> uuuuurgh, my damned MB doesn't supoprt booting from SATA, despite having SATA ports
[08:20] <sander> rahbin: my mouse is: left, rollover and right button (the 3 emulater function in my xorg.conf is disable)
[08:20] <princ3> and just assing like 15gb to linux
[08:20] <HKJGN> chris-a: eh, i doubt your problem is reboot worthy :P only some packages require rebooting
[08:20] <Lilacor> assing 15gb to linux?
[08:20] <Madpilot> cafuego, look a few minutes back for the actual earning of that /remove
[08:20] <princ3> assign
[08:20] <chris-a> hkjgn: i just upgraded too breezy from 5.04
[08:21] <n2diy> big_boy: where did you find that software, and what did you use to install it?
[08:21] <HKJGN> chris-a: i see.. thats someone elses bag there >.> im using Fawn.. lol
[08:21] <chris-a> hkjgn: alrighty
[08:21] <Gnea> big_boy: sec, i'm finally reading it (i get distracted easy sometimes)
[08:21] <HKJGN> :3 sowwy
[08:21] <sx66> I still can not fix the resolution: I put in...sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.backup
[08:21] <sander> rahbin: here i don't got to copy anythink in this irc section to an text editor...
[08:21] <sx66> then: sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:21] <Lilacor> princ3: so nothing shows up when you try to manually partition your volume?
[08:21] <chris-a> hkjgn: well let me give it a shot its worth a try
[08:21] <princ3> yep
[08:21] <sander> rahbin: this don't works
[08:21] <sx66> then: SubSection "Display"
[08:21] <sx66>   Depth 24
[08:21] <princ3> well im trying to put it on my laptop
[08:22] <sx66>   Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[08:22] <big_boy> n2diy: regardless what i install and deinstall i get this error.
[08:22] <sx66> EndSubSection
[08:22] <chris-a> hkjgn: if it don't work i'll come back hehe if not tonight tomorrow
[08:22] <Lilacor> princ3: are you comfortable with the command line?
[08:22] <princ3> and i think my hdd is already partitioned into a  c drive and d drive
[08:22] <HKJGN> chris-a: kk
[08:22] <Gnea> big_boy: okay, are there any other 2.6.20 image packages? apt-cache search linux-image 2.6.20
[08:22] <Lilacor> you *think*?
[08:22] <sander> i don't understand this problem :@
[08:22] <Gnea> big_boy: and what CPU do you use?
[08:22] <Lilacor> princ3: find out for sure and come back
[08:22] <sander> egardless what i install and deinstall i get this error.
[08:22] <sander> 03:23 < sx66> EndSubSection
[08:22] <sander> 03:23 < chris-a> hkjgn: if it don't work i'll come back hehe if not tonight tomorrow
[08:22] <rahbin> sander : in regards to copy and paste, the keyboard shortcuts in terminal for that are shift+ctrl+(c or v)
[08:22] <princ3> well how do i do that
[08:22] <big_boy> some intel chip
[08:22] <sander> 03:23 < Lilacor> princ3: are you comfortable with the command line?
[08:22] <Gnea> big_boy: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[08:22] <princ3> wtf is the command line
[08:22] <HKJGN> sx66: k, so did you restart x?
[08:23] <sx66> sander, what?
[08:23] <Lilacor> sander: Polly wanna cracker?
[08:23] <sx66> yes

[08:23] <sx66> I restarted the Comp
[08:23] <Lilacor> princ3: Hmmmm...if you want to be rude, find help elsewhere. It isn't my job to help you.
[08:23] <HKJGN> sx66: what sizes does it show?
[08:23] <sx66> it is the same resolution
[08:23] <Gnea> PANCAKES.... WITH SYRUP.
[08:24] <big_boy> gnea: cpu in pastebin

[08:24] <big_boy> gnea: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23219/
[08:24] <HKJGN> sx66: what kind of monitor are you using?
[08:24] <rahbin> princ3 : there are some great guides online on how to dual boot windows and linux. try a once over at www.psychocats.net/ubuntu on planning partitions.
[08:24] <n2diy> big_boy: type apt-get in a terminal, do you get the help commands?
[08:24] <sander> rahbin: i'll try in a new xterm window
[08:24] <sx66> laptop monitor.
[08:24] <princ3> ok well sorry
[08:24] <sander> rahbin: thanks for patience
[08:24] <Gnea> big_boy: oh, it's a laptop. who makes it and what's the model?
[08:24] <zero> help?
[08:25] <GigaClon> zero, can't we don't know your problem
[08:25] <Lilacor> !anyone
[08:25] <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?
[08:25] <Gnea> !help
[08:25] <rahbin> sander : we are both learning, do not worry.
[08:25] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[08:25] <HKJGN> sx66: hmm... i don't know what to tell you, thats how i added resolutions
[08:25] <big_boy> gnea: toshiba latitude m35
[08:25] <princ3> so lilacor any ideas of wat i can do?
[08:25] <virgil> hello
[08:25] <big_boy> n2diy: yes i get the help commands... i think
[08:25] <HKJGN> sx66: i would search Google and see if anyone else has had a similar problem
[08:26] <Lilacor> princ3:  www.psychocats.net/ubuntu
[08:26] <zero> i m trying mail(); over php, and i wanna know how can i check the logs of sendmail
[08:26] <virgil> i was told to come here by a friend, i'm trying to get my webcam working and it seems that although it's detected, modules aren't loading or something? i'm not really sure, i'm new to linux
[08:26] <zero> cause it doesn't seems to work
[08:26] <HKJGN> sx66: use info like the laptop model, and ubuntu
[08:26] <n2diy> big_boy: a list of options?
[08:26] <itai> just got beryl working on feisty - how do i change themes?
[08:26] <CaptainMorgan> lol
[08:26] <CaptainMorgan> Linux (Car) Crashes At Indy 500
[08:26] <rahbin> sander: eh, i am a dead end right about now. my copy and paste is working fine in terminal (that is, copying commands and such on other pages, and with a shift-ctrl-v or a middle mouse click, it will paste).
[08:26] <Lilacor> zero: try /var/log/ ... <?>
[08:26] <HKJGN> n2diy:  "know to do it yourself?" amiright?
[08:26] <bobsumone>  hey Captain
[08:26] <Gnea> big_boy: okay, if you type this: apt-cache search linux image 2.6.20   do you get any results that contain 686, i686 or p4?
[08:27] <bobsumone>  didn't see u there :P
[08:27] <big_boy> n2diy: yes i do get a list of options... i don't think it really helps
[08:27] <sander> rahbin: i do it:   highlight the text are in xterm and ctrl + shift + c to paste, and after, i open a kedit aplication and ctrl + shift and v to paste, but don't make anything, so, i try the two buttons mouse (or rollover buton mouse) and this copy succesfully :D
[08:27] <zero> Lilacor: what about those docs?
[08:27] <n2diy> HKJGN: negative, Nice two do it yourself. :)
[08:27] <Lilacor> zero: I thought you were looking for sendmail logs
[08:28] <Gnea> big_boy: basically what you want to do is to find a kernel that is best suited for your CPU so that it will run more efficiently and thus faster
[08:28] <zero> Lilacor: yes i am
[08:28] <HKJGN> itai: go to the diamond on your desktop, and switch your desktop manager to metacity, then open emerald settings, change to whatever theme you want, turn beryl back on, should do it
[08:28] <Lilacor> zero: so they should be under /var/log
[08:28] <rahbin> sander: when you paste outside of the terminal, you do not need to hold <shift> with your control-v
[08:28] <sander> rahbin: or better... this paste succesfully
[08:28] <virgil> could anyone help me getting my webcam working? i'm fairly new to linux, i guess it shows up on lsusb but otherwise won't get recognized by any programs
[08:28] <Gnea> big_boy: i'm guessing that's why you want to upgrade your kernel :)
[08:28] <big_boy> gnea: no... i only i386 and x86 and x86_64 stuff
[08:28] <HKJGN> itai: its a little bit of a bug in Beryl, but it was built to be pretty, not stable
[08:28] <rahbin> sander: cool :D
[08:29] <HKJGN> lol
[08:29] <Gnea> big_boy: alright, go for the x86 one then, if you install it, dpkg should then 'forget' about the generic one
[08:29] <n2diy> big_boy: ok, so apt-get is woriking, ummm
[08:29] <sx66> http://farm1.static.flickr.com/191/521082870_841a803c0a_o.png
[08:29] <Gnea> n2diy: he's trying to upgrade his kernel
[08:29] <sander> rahbin: i'll test here now
[08:29] <rahbin> virgil : i have not had any experience with webcams (period). but i found this wiki on installing them .. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Webcam
[08:29] <princ3> lilacor: i had a look at guide thingy... but still no help on why its no showing drives to partition
[08:29] <Gnea> n2diy: and the package is a bit faulty
[08:29] <itai> HKJGN, don't have a diamond - i just 'enable desktop effects' maybe its not beryl?
[08:29] <sx66> HKJGN: http://farm1.static.flickr.com/191/521082870_841a803c0a_o.png
[08:30] <cweagans> doesn't ubuntu have kernel updates included in the software update?
[08:30] <big_boy> gnea: I added results of apt-cache to pastebin
[08:30] <Gnea> ok
[08:30] <sx66> any ideas how to edit the monitor settings?
[08:30] <HKJGN> itai: youre right :3, Beryl is not on ubuntu automatically, i would go to the Beryl mainsite, theres a tutorial there
[08:30] <sander> rahbin: there is a other way to paste? or only using the left-right mouse buttons?
[08:30] <sander> rahbin: from the xterm...
[08:30] <n2diy> Gnea: roger, the latest feisty kernel is "questionable"
[08:31] <Gnea> n2diy: :)
[08:31] <rahbin> sander: i apologize. ctrl-v and the middle mouse click are the extent of my pasting expertise.
[08:31] <cweagans> sx66: do you need multimon?
[08:31] <itai> HKJGN, so what am i running? compiz?
[08:31] <Gnea> big_boy: cat /proc/version  <-- what does that return?
[08:31] <sx66> what is that multimon?
[08:31] <cweagans> more than one monitor....multiple monitors...multimon
[08:31] <HKJGN> itai:Metacity + XGL, the basic desktop manager for Gnome
[08:32] <virgil> rahbin: thanks, i had already been using that and it seems that spcaxxx does not want to build
[08:32] <n2diy> Gnea: That is why I'm sticking with Dapper LTS!
[08:32] <sander> rahbin: ctrl-v don't works when pasting something from the xterm in a gedit or kedit :(
[08:32] <HKJGN> sx66: so you set them all to 1024x768" and its still not working?
[08:32] <itai> HKJGN, how different is beryl?
[08:32] <sx66> Yes
[08:32] <virgil> and easycam2 does not detect my cam
[08:32] <princ3> anyone here have any reason of why when i try to partition it does not pick up any of my drives?
[08:32] <Gnea> n2diy: lol, i run debian sid (sssshhhhh!!!) but i'm about to build a system to run ubuntu on
[08:32] <sx66> should I set the depth to 24  on all of them?
[08:33] <HKJGN> itai: lots of pretty 3d effects, a 3d rendered cube that can be hand rotated by the mouse, lots of neat features
[08:33] <big_boy> gnea: Linux version 2.6.20-15-generic (root@palmer) (gcc version 4.1.2 (Ubuntu 4.1.2-0ubuntu4)) #2 SMP Sun Apr 15 07:36:31 UTC 2007
[08:33] <zero> help!, how i verify if sendmail is running?
[08:33] <HKJGN> itai: videos on Youtube
[08:33] <rahbin> princ3 : at what point in the partitioner are you at?
[08:33] <Gnea> zero: ps axf | grep sendmail
[08:33] <HKJGN> sx66: i dont think its reading the new xorg file, for some reason
[08:33] <harald__> hallo! how can i disable the ubuntu-splash-screen?
[08:33] <HKJGN> sx66: but i dont know how to fix that ;_;
[08:34] <sx66> how do I resave it ??
[08:34] <zero> Gnea:  8314 pts/0    S+     0:00      \_ grep sendmail
[08:34] <rahbin> princ3 : does it show that you have no available/free space? or are there no drives shown at all? also, may i ask what you are installing?
[08:34] <Gnea> big_boy: yeah, i'd try installing linux-image-2.6.20-16-386 and see if it produces the same error
[08:34] <n2diy> Gnea: Roger that, I learned "upgrading" was bad news with DOS 6.0. I have a working box now why upgrade? Do you see anybody here complaining about Dapper?!?!
[08:34] <princ3> rahbin: well i get to the point where it asks which way i want to do it.. and it only gives me the manual option then the next screen where u choose wat drives and stuff i donno has nothing
[08:34] <Gnea> zero: it's not running.
[08:34] <itai> HKJGN, ok - will check it when i have time ,thanks
[08:34] <zero> Gnea: and that means?
[08:34] <zero> Gnea: so i'm not sure how to run it
[08:34] <sander> rahbin: i has been tested here in the irc session (running in a xterm window) the ctrl-shift+c to copy one line and pasting in the kedit, and don't make anything... i think this is a bug :(
[08:34] <cweagans> harald__:I think there is a file you can create that will disable it. You will still have that load time while the system services start, but you won't have the graphic
[08:34] <cweagans> check google or the ubuntu forums
[08:35] <teenbeat2007> question, what is a LTSP server
[08:35] <zero> Gnea: how can i run it?
[08:35] <princ3> i am insalling ubuntu
[08:35] <big_boy> gnea: not sure how to do that. but for some reason i tried it already. how do i install it
[08:35] <princ3> i donno lol
remove usplash
[08:35] <HKJGN> sx66:hmmm.. im not sure what to tell you, i just added all my resolutions into each line "###X###"
[08:35] <qiyong>  what the benefit ldap is over mysql solution?
[08:35] <n2diy> ! LTSP
[08:35] <ubotu> LTSP is the Linux Terminal Server Project, which adds thin-client support to Linux servers. See chapter 3 of the !edubuntuhandbook, http://www.ltsp.org and/or http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_Terminal_Server_Project
[08:35] <rahbin> princ3: alright. do you already have windows installed on your computer?
[08:35] <HKJGN> sx66: largest to smallest
[08:35] <Gnea> big_boy: apt-get install linux-image-2.6.20-16-386
[08:35] <sx66> and then?
[08:35] <sander> rahbin: this sometimes fails too, when i try to copy texts from the vi and pasting in the kedit or other any program that have grafic interface
[08:35] <HKJGN> sx66: then hit save, and restart
[08:36] <varka> harald__: sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst and then delete "splash" in the starter-entry-line that begins with kernel....
[08:36] <HKJGN> sx66: then the resolutions were selectable on my screen resolutions
[08:36] <n2diy> teenbeat2007: see what uboutu says about LTSP?
[08:36] <cweagans> gnea: aren't kernel updates included with the Ubuntu software update tool?
[08:36] <sander> rahbin: but i liked the ctrl+shift+c to copy from the xterm, this is better than pressing the two buttons of mouse :D
[08:36] <big_boy> gnea: thnx i will try it right now
[08:37] <zero> how can i run sendmail?
[08:37] <Gnea> cweagans: which ubuntu software update tool?
[08:37] <insmod> hdparm question -- with the new updates dma was lost i reset it with hdparm but it wont keep 32 -- when i reboot it is 16  again -- also k3b resets to 4x not keeping 24x
[08:37] <rahbin> princ3 : do you know how much ram your computer has?
[08:37] <n2diy> uboutu/ubottu
[08:37] <teenbeat2007> thanx a saw it, im trying to install xubuntu on a old laptop when is saw LTSP server
[08:37] <sx66> I hit save, and now restarting
[08:37] <cweagans> i always get a prompt at the upper right of the screen that says "New software updates are available" (or something to that effect)...I have never had to manually update my kernel
[08:37] <sx66> I hope this works
[08:37] <Gnea> zero: read this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=196112
[08:37] <HKJGN> me too
[08:38] <rahbin> princ3 : if you know you have at least 256 MB of RAM installed, you may be best off trying to use one of the Ubuntu LiveCD's to try out linux before you go forth with a full install.
[08:38] <sx66> I am on an external monitor because my monitor broke on my laptop, does that have somthing to do with it?
, <insmod>, <varka>: thanks!
[08:38] <HKJGN> sx66: i dont know, but maybbe
[08:38] <kraut> moin
[08:38] <varka> harald__: kein problem
[08:38] <insmod> :)
[08:38] <HKJGN> sx66: its definately a different situation XD
[08:39] <cweagans> gnea: i always get a prompt at the upper right of the screen that says "New software updates are available" (or something to that effect)...I have never had to manually update my kernel
[08:39] <sx66> as in?
[08:39] <rahbin> i cannot use the apostrophe or quotation key on my keyboard without my system 'pausing' to see whether or not i want to use it as an accent. how can i change it to assume i am mono-lingual in plain english?
[08:39] <purpzey> How can I view the manual of a package off of the repositories?
[08:39] <sx66> nope did not work
[08:39] <purpzey> (that I don't want to install)
[08:39] <HKJGN> sx66: as in i havent had the same situation, my situation worked fine, but that is a possible varyiable as to why your monitors not working
[08:39] <Gnea> cweagans: consider yourself one of the pampered then, and pray that it doesn't break.
[08:40] <n2diy> cweagans: you don't have a choice, kernel upgrades occur whether you want it or not.
[08:40] <sx66> pref> S resolution > still the same as 640X480
[08:40] <HKJGN> sx66: scientifically, its a Variable, because it changes the test subject
[08:40] <cweagans> I know....that's what im saying. gnea is explaining how to update a kernel with apt-get....why?
[08:40] <big_boy> gnea: install failed. see pastebin -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23222/
[08:40] <HKJGN> sx66: i have to go to bed, its late here :( but i hope you fix it
[08:40] <Gnea> cweagans: because most people use the commandline
[08:41] <sx66> should I put the depth as 24 on all?
[08:41] <Prez_> anyone know if feisty will get upgraded kernel with tickless feature...
[08:41] <HKJGN> sx66: no, wont help
[08:41] <zero> Gnea: but you know the command just tu run sendmail, because it doesnt seems to be running
[08:41] <sx66> k
[08:41] <cweagans> true.....but why put forth so much extra effort....automagically works for me
[08:41] <Prez_> i tried a custom one on my laptop and immediately saw at least 30-45 extra min of battery
[08:41] <sx66> thanks good night, what time is it there?
[08:41] <HKJGN> almost 2am
[08:41] <sx66> it is 23 40 here
[08:41] <Gnea> zero: you could try /etc/init.d/sendmail start
[08:41] <sx66> damn
[08:41] <HKJGN> lol
[08:41] <zero> Gnea: btw where i can found i list with that commands?
[08:41] <HKJGN> later
[08:42] <Gnea> cweagans: because you're you, not anyone else, and your bickering on the matter doesn't help the situation.
[08:42] <Gnea> zero: ls /etc/init.d/
[08:42] <ryancr> is there a way to select the "web searches" in the Deskbar applet??
[08:42] <Cosmo__>  anyone know what the difference between a nvidia 7950 GT and a 7950 GT KO is?
[08:42] <n2diy> cweagans: I haven't found a way to turn off upgrade, I'm happy with my box now, why should I upgrade? The only thing that saved me from this weeks kernel upgrade is I'm running an smp kernel.
[08:43] <cweagans> i wasn't trying to bicker....i was just curious as to why you prefer the command line over automated processes
[08:43] <Gnea> cweagans: lemme ask you something - do you drive a car?
[08:43] <zero> Gnea: thx a lot
[08:43] <Gnea> zero: you're welcome
[08:43] <cweagans> only if i can't avoid it
[08:43] <Gnea> lol
[08:43] <big_boy> gnea: i am not using grub because it hangs on boot. so i am using lilo. what should i do?
[08:44] <Gnea> cweagans: okay, now did you learn on a manual or automatic
[08:44] <cweagans> auto...they dont teach manual anymore
[08:44] <rahbin> cosmo: the latter is probably better.
[08:44] <purpzey> How can I view the manual of a package off of the repositories? but I don't want to install the software?
[08:44] <Gnea> cweagans: well, *I* learned on a manual, and i've been driving manuals for over a decade. so tell me, why should i want to buy an automatic?
[08:44] <sander> rahbin: i has been discovered a better way :)
[08:45] <sx66> what is the shortcut key for app menu?
[08:45] <n2diy> purpzey: google for it, and read the stuff on it' home page.
[08:45] <Gnea> cweagans: see what i mean? it's a pointless debate :)
[08:45] <cweagans> ok, fair enough.
[08:45] <cweagans> i wasn't trying to debate....just curious...that's all
[08:45] <purpzey> n2diy: That will include operates and what not?

[08:46] <rahbin> i cannot use the apostrophe or quotation key on my keyboard without my system 'pausing' to see whether or not i want to use it as an accent. How can I disable this?
[08:46] <teenbeat2007> maybe a very stupid question, when you install ubuntu standard software after you need internet, is there a way you dont need internet
[08:46] <big_boy> i need to roll back my linux-image to a previous version because the update is expecting grub and i am using lilo. can someone help me roll back to a previous version or give me an alternate or better solution?
[08:46] <emach> hello, i have a simple question about getting my logitech usb mouse scroll button to work in feisty. can anybody help?
[08:46] <n2diy> purpzey: maybe not manuals, but there should be readmes to get ya going.=

[08:46] <sander> rahbin: ???
[08:47] <allblacks> does anybody knows from where to copy and where to put the tahoma.ttf so CounterStrike should work?
[08:47] <insmod> why does xubuntu list the hard disks as sda and kubuntu does hda ? why is xubuntu makeing them scsi
[08:47] <rahbin> sander : don't mention it, no worries, no problem, etc.. essentially, you're welcome
[08:47] <insmod> i can't use hdparm
[08:47] <Gnea> cweagans: heh, about 17 years ago, i was in your shoes, using windows 3.1, going "how did people EVER use DOS?  and what's that unix thing with all the typing?  at least OS/2 has a desktop background..."
[08:47] <sander> rahbin: hehehe thanks
[08:48] <sander> rahbin: i always learning
[08:48] <rahbin> teenbeat: installing standard software _after_ you need internet?
[08:48] <sander> rahbin: linux is culture
[08:48] <rahbin> teenbeat2007: would you please clarify that?
[08:48] <Slart> bah.. my mouse just died... anyone know what part of gnome is responsible for handling the mouse? can I restart some subprocess to make it work again?
[08:48] <cweagans> gnea: i know what you mean...well..kinda. I like the command line as much as anyone else, but I also think that if it can be done with a GUI, it is just quicker to do it that way than try to remember commands (3 different programming languages and linux shell commands quickly get muddled when you add high school to the mix)
[08:49] <n2diy> Slart: in the old days GDM manged the mouse.
[08:49] <Gnea> Slart: X handles the mouse, not Gnome, i would just unplug it and plug it back in
[08:49] <emach> speaking of mice...
[08:49] <n2diy> manged/managed
[08:50] <big_boy> i take it that i have already asked my question for the day right?
[08:50] <rahbin> i cannot use the apostrophe or quotation key on my keyboard without my system 'pausing' to see whether or not i want to use it as an accent. How can I disable this?
[08:50] <cbs> would someone be willing to help me in simply compiling my own version of the latest source of WINE? I only need to recompile the standard source as it is, however, I will have XBL2 support included automatically in the system. Any takes?
[08:50] <Slart> I have disconnected/reconnected.. still wont move... well.. might as well restart X then... bah
[08:50] <cweagans> rahbin: never seen this before...my suggestion would be to not press that key :D
[08:50] <Gnea> big_boy: sorry about that, you can actually pin a package so that it won't use something else
[08:51] <Gnea> !pin | big_boy
[08:51] <ubotu> big_boy: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto

[08:52] <cweagans> could you try chaning the key mapping? i know that there is a way to do it, i just dont remember how
[08:52] <Gnea> cweagans: i agree, i'm totally down with making slick GUIs, i just don't agree that gnome+metacity is a good choice, although they did do some neat stuff with beryl, I'd rather see an E17+Beryl
[08:52] <n2diy> big_boy: 73

[08:53] <big_boy> n2diy: wth is 73?
[08:53] <Gnea> cweagans: still, i'll help support it because it's breaking unprecedented ground and i've always been about doing that :)
[08:53] <sx66> oh, on bitorrent, how do I install it, it is checked in the add remove apps, where do I find it in the app menu?
[08:53] <emach> heretic : i should type this into the terminal?
[08:54] <Lapinux> can anyone point me in the right direction for getting rid of the flashy loading bar and getting the standart informational boot screen like on many other distro's?
[08:54] <rahbin> teenbeat2007 : yes, but it is tedious. you could download the packages you need (installation files), copy them onto a cd or flash drive and bring them to your linux installation to install..
 it is console and a gui plugin
[08:54] <cweagans> big_boy: 73 is amateur radio operator jargon for "have a good one" or "regards"
[08:54] <heret|c> emach, yes
[08:54] <rahbin> teenbeat2007: i would consider that tedious.
[08:54] <big_boy> sweet...
[08:54] <Gnea> big_boy: good luck with that
[08:54] <emach> heretic: i get this 3 times : (EE) xf86OpenSerial: Cannot open device /dev/input/wacom

[08:56] <heret|c> emach, cat the things in there till it gives you output on mouse movement that is

[08:56] <cweagans> n2diy: hmm...guess not...boise,id, here
[08:56] <emach> oh
[08:56] <n2diy> cweagans: Is that a vanity call, or luck of the draw?
[08:56] <heret|c> emach, the mouse movemwents will put random jargon to the screen
[08:57] <emach> right i see it
[08:57] <emach> what would you like to know about it?
[08:57] <cweagans> n2diy: i was licensed in manassas, VA...louck of the draw

[08:58] <cweagans> n2diy: sorry....still a tech. Not quite familiar with code yet

[08:58] <insmod> ssx66 try xterm
[08:58] <sx66> how do I get to bit-torrent?
[08:59] <sx66> I did
[08:59] <yell1> can rythmbox use the realplayer engine?
[08:59] <sx66> a command promp open
[08:59] <n2diy> cweagans: google it :{
[08:59] <n2diy> :( * :)
[08:59] <emach> heretic : i see where you're going, as of yet i don't know what the correct /dev/input thing is. i should mention the mouse works great except for the scroll wheel in the center.
[08:59] <rahbin> sx66 : you could try sudo apt-get install azureus
[08:59] <cweagans> n2diy: RR?
[08:59] <pot_> sx66 : i like the deluge client
[09:00] <yell1> can rythmbox use an other playback engine ? and how would i set it?
[09:00] <pot_> sx66 : some people like azureus but its not that great for beginners
[09:00] <insmod> sx66, cd to the torrent then run the command line or just open it with it in your browser
[09:00] <cweagans> n2diy: like i said...my familiarty with the code is not exactly adequate
[09:00] <n2diy> pot_: your right, 1890s!!!
[09:00] <rahbin> pot_ : have not tried anything outside of azureus and the fruit-sounding one. is deluge good?
[09:00] <insmod> sx66, why not use a better torrant like qtorrent or ktorrent
[09:00] <heret|c> emach, when i modify the xorg.conf file as has been suggested online xserver won't restart. can anybody help? << how is yoru mouse working fine if x won't start ?
[09:00] <Lapinux> insmod: don't know if you can help me or not on this, but on that same question, if i remove usplash can i go into menu.1st and change the text mode for boot?
[09:01] <sx66> where do I get that?
[09:01] <n2diy> cweagans: google for "learnmorsedode.com
[09:01] <psykidellic> hi...whats wrong with this source list: deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty main non-free contrib .. apt-get update fails for this
[09:01] <yell1> can rythmbox use an other playback engine ? and how would i set it?
[09:01] <emach> heretic sorry if unclear, only after i try suggested modifications to get the scroll wheel working does xserve not start. now i've reverted to the original xorg
[09:01] <yell1> some knows?
[09:01] <purpzey> what's the app for power management on a laptop? My applet ran away and I'd like to restart it from console
[09:01] <n2diy> cweagans: google for "learnmorsecode.com
[09:01] <sx66> I am downloading now
[09:01] <insmod> Lapinux, change it to what?
[09:01] <heret|c> emach, gotcha
[09:01] <rahbin> i cannot use the apostrophe or quotation key on my keyboard without my system 'pausing' to see whether or not i want to use it as an accent. How can I disable this?
[09:01] <emach> heretic, basically i just want to know how to get the scroll wheel working
[09:02] <heret|c> emach have you tried  Option         "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"    Option         "ZAxisMapping" "4 5"
[09:02] <Lapinux> insmod: a higher res, if the default looks like crap
[09:02] <cweagans> n2diy: right...RR. I don't know the meaning
[09:02] <emach> heretic i've done zaxismapping but not the other. should i just add that to the mouse input section, even though it is a usb mouse?
[09:02] <n2diy> cweagans: RR, roger roger. :)
[09:03] <emach> heretic when i add the zaxismapping thing it crashes
[09:03] <cweagans> n2diy: ah...that makes sense
[09:03] <emach> don't think 4 and 5 are set as buttons
[09:03] <insmod> Lapinux, sure can i forget the switch though -- i say it on debian posts and redhat post and  kubuntuforums etc
[09:03] <heret|c> emach, i'm using a logitech mx518 series mouse perfectly. would you like me to pastebin my entire xorg.conf for reference?
[09:03] <yell1> can rythmbox use an other playback engine ? and how would i set it?
[09:03] <emach> absolutely
[09:03] <n2diy> cweagans: .-. .-.
[09:03] <heret|c> one sec
[09:03] <emach> gracias
[09:04] <Lapinux> insmod: i would have to look it up, but i remember doing it before... just wasnt sure if i could do it in ubuntu's menu.1st as i saw it says its auto generated kernel list....
[09:04] <purpzey> n2diy: Is it possible for a "tray" applet to disappear behind another....I see that my gnome-power-manager is running, but when I unplug, or re-run it, the activity seems to come "behind" my other applets
[09:05] <insmod> Lapinux, ya it is just the same old grub :)
[09:05] <n2diy> cweagans: you didn't pick up my nick as a call sign? sigh.
[09:05] <emach> heretic btw, never used irc or linux until earlier today so not sure what pastebin is
[09:05] <yell1> can rythmbox use an other playback engine ? and how would i set it?
[09:05] <Lapinux> insmod: ok, thanks
[09:05] <heret|c> emach, http://pastebin.ca/521591 keep in mind i'm using nvidia video card and xorg 6.9 under slackware 11
[09:05] <muriu> emach, is there any internet download manager in the repository? Give me a name please.
[09:05] <n2diy> purpzey: I don't know!?
[09:05] <emach> heretic also using nvidia, i guess i should just try the sections about the mouse and not copy the other stuff?
[09:05] <wEsTfALl> when write a c++ programming, is there any pre-defined MACRO to see whether the OS is ubuntu or FC or something else ?
[09:06] <purpzey> n2diy: Sorry...You always know the answer...=)
[09:06] <rahbin> n2diy : is it difficult to obtain certification in ham radio?

[09:06] <emach> muriu: ?
[09:06] <n2diy> purpzey: yeh, ok.
[09:06] <Lapinux> wow, wait. i cant remove usplash without removing ubuntu-desktop?
[09:07] <n2diy> rabbin, where are you located/
[09:07] <rahbin> n2diy : presently, clovis, new mexico.
[09:07] <muriu> emach, is the any internet download manager in the repository?
[09:07] <yell1> you can turn off usplash i think
 just rename the config files in /etc
[09:07] <emach> muriu i just opened it in opera if pastebin is what you mean
[09:07] <heret|c> emach, if you copy the whole thing, i'd suggest changing the resolution i have in screen depth. i'm using a 22" widescreen LCD
[09:07] <yell1> can rythmbox use the realplayer engine?
[09:08] <emach> heretic ok, i have a 19" conventional lcd
[09:08] <rahbin> n2diy : certification equates to reserving your call-sign right?
[09:08] <n2diy> rabbin, No, you just need the basics now, no need to know morse code anymore.
[09:08] <emach> heretic, is it safe to just copy the section on the mouse and nothing more? everything else on my system is great.
 sorry the ones in /sbin
[09:08] <insmod> /sbin/usplash_write
[09:08] <insmod> /sbin/usplash_down
[09:08] <insmod> /sbin/usplash
[09:08] <n2diy> rabbin, I don't think so, you need one first.
[09:09] <heret|c> emach, it'd be safe as long as you change the identifier to match the identifier used in your screen section
[09:09] <emach> heretic ok. thanks so much for the help!
[09:09] <heret|c> emach, sorry, meant server layout
[09:09] <yell1> insmod , can i turn off usplash for just the shutdown? so th eboot up splash would work but the shut down not..

[09:12] <insmod> sx66: or save the torrent and have ktorrent open it
[09:13] <kaushal_> I have SNMP installed on my ubuntu box

[09:18] <emach> heretic ok there os only a response when i push down on the middle scroll wheel, not when scrolling up and down. it is button 2.
[09:18] <n2diy> kaushal_: it found cpu1?
[09:18] <heret|c> insmod, he uses my xorg.conf section that uses protocol explorerps/2
[09:18] <Madpilot> rahbin, n2diy - could you please move the off-topic chat to PM or #ubuntu-offtopic? Thanks.
[09:18] <yell1> i know that amarok can use realplayer engine, can rythmbox do this too?
[09:18] <rahbin> madpilot: my apologies. i will be logging of now anyways.
[09:18] <emach> insmod i think that's in there
hmm could see if it works
[09:18] <rahbin> take care n2diy.
[09:19] <heret|c> emach, comment out Option         "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 6 7" with a # at the beginning and restart x
[09:19] <n2diy> rahbin: don't shoot from planes, they shoot back! :)
[09:19] <emach> heretic ok
[09:19] <heret|c> emach, your mouse may not have all the buttons mine does
[09:19] <kaushal_> n2diy : so how do i enable SNMP
[09:19] <heret|c> insmod, true. be a good next step
then that could be why only one option can be there i think
[09:19] <kaushal_> on my Ubuntu box
[09:19] <emach> heretic yeah i was guessing 1-5 with 4 and 5 being scroll up and down
[09:20] <n2diy> rahbin: I think Madpilot just shot us down!!! :)
[09:20] <emach> insmod so wait, what were you saying i should add?
add the iteli mouse option -- Option          "Protocol"      "ImPS/2"
[09:20] <emach> ok
[09:20] <emach> guess i'll try that then the comment out idea
[09:20] <purpzey> What is the command to get a list of my hardware with mount address?
 but make sure to get ride of the other dev options
[09:21] <emach> insmod ok, will delete them
[09:21] <n2diy> kaushal_: it found cpu1?
[09:21] <kaushal_> yes
 just hash them #
[09:21] <purpzey> What?
[09:21] <predaeus> purpzey, lspci lists pci devices
[09:21] <foug> Why does trying to install things using the typical ./configure make and make install never work for me? It really makes me want to switch to another distro
[09:21] <sx66> I found a torrent, where do find the link to download it?
[09:21] <predaeus> foug, what does it say?
[09:22] <n2diy> kaushal_: then it is running, along with cpu0
[09:22] <foug> I'm trying to install Asterisk and i'm having so many problems. I had to do sudo apt-get install Asterisk, luckily it was on the respositories, and now I have no idea where it is installed to
[09:22] <foug> and doing "locate Asterisk" gives me permission denied
[09:22] <purpzey> preaues: But I am looking for the mount addresses...eth0, etc.
[09:22] <foug> predaeus: he configure script must be executed before running 'make'.
[09:22] <foug> predaeus: add a T to the beginning of that line
[09:22] <insmod> sx66: click it
[09:22] <kaushal_> *-cpu:0
[09:22] <kaushal_>           bus info: cpu@0
[09:22] <foug> predaeus: that's after I did sudo ./configure
[09:22] <predaeus> foug, ?
[09:22] <kaushal_> but what it has to do with SNMP
[09:22] <purpzey> predaues: But I am looking for the mount addresses...eth0, etc.
 ???But I am looking for the mount addresses eth0, etc ??? wtf
[09:23] <predaeus> !language
[09:23] <ubotu> Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[09:23] <n2diy> kaushal_: smp is symetrical multi processors, I don't know what snmpt is.
[09:24] <purpzey> insmod: Maybe my language is unclear. I am looking for a list of my hardware, with the indication of what ubuntu recognizes them as, for example eth0.
 what the feathers !
[09:24] <kaushal_> SNMP
dmesg
[09:24] <kaushal_> Simple Network Management Protocol

[09:24] <foug> Does anyone here use Asterisk?
[09:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about snmp - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:24] <sx66> Address already in use...now what?
[09:24] <kaushal_> but how do i enable and start it
[09:25] <foug> of course no one does, not surprised
[09:25] <n2diy> kaushal_: ubotu doesn't know either, give me a clue?
[09:25] <kaushal_> NET-SNMP
[09:26] <emach> insmod: worked!
[09:26] <sx66> what is a good avi viewer?
[09:26] <Xenobyte> i like gqview
[09:26] <cmvo> Hi! After upgrading the kernel to -11 in edgy, I get sticking mouse keys. Anybody having similar problems?
[09:26] <Xenobyte> oh no
[09:26] <emach> both of you are great.
[09:26] <Xenobyte> i mean mplayer
 :)
[09:26] <n2diy> kaushal_: your going to make me google this, unless you have another clue?
[09:27] <emach> another night i'll discover which usb wifi adapter is best...
 yourrrrre welcome ! :)
[09:27] <kolaskolas> sx66, i like xine
[09:28] <Balshoy> can someone please help me... my network broadcast address keeps changing after each restart
[09:28] <heret|c> emach, i missed. what was the last thing that fixed it
[09:28] <pot_> sx66 i like vlc
[09:28] <emach> hi heretic. i believe using the intellimouse did it
[09:28] <grndslm> hello all....trying to use evolution for the first time, but i don't see where to type my password!!  Even if I tell it not to remember, I don't get a pop-up or anything asking for it...any hints??
[09:28] <emach> i'm guessing that's a built in driver / identifier?
[09:29] <Amarilis> i have a notebook compaq presario r3000 ( amd athlon 3000+ @1600 mhz/512 mb ram/ 80 gb hdd)
[09:29] <n2diy> Balshoy: are you on a cable modem, or satellite modem?
[09:29] <heret|c> emach, ahh. great :) due to insmod 's bringing it up. was gonna be the next thing i told ya
[09:29] <tuxican> can anyone help me with a ubuntu ppc installation?
[09:29] <isolatednz> whats the best way to go about upgrading from edgy > feisty by using the CD, my broadband connection isn't so healthy so #gksudo "update-manager -c" is kinda outta the question at the moment
[09:29] <Balshoy> on a lan... I have a static ip address... no dhcp... I know my dns ip and other settings by heart
 what's that
[09:30] <Amarilis> i installed kubuntu on this notebook. i noticed that kubuntu reports me only half of the processor speed. any idea why?
[09:30] <Flannel> isolatednz: you don't need the -c.  Do you have the alternate CD?
[09:30] <heret|c> insmod, IMPS/2
 ah
[09:30] <Madpilot> isolatednz, get the Alternate ISO, burn it, drop it back into your CD drive, it'll ask if you want to use that as a source.
[09:30] <emach> heretic your suggestions got his interest, both very useful as learning to deal with xorg.conf, which i hope not to be doing very often:) i've been using ubuntu instead of my intel mac for around 12 hours now.
[09:30] <Balshoy> btw... thx for answering... I thought no one answers on the main
[09:30] <Balshoy> :D
[09:31] <isolatednz> ok thnx very much Madpilot and Flannel!
[09:31] <grndslm> hello all....trying to use evolution for the first time, but i don't see where to type my password!!  Even if I tell it not to remember, I don't get a pop-up or anything asking for it...any hints??
[09:31] <isolatednz> I have the standard CD im pretty sure
[09:31] <princ3> ey anyone here know much about partitioning with the installation of ubuntu
[09:31] <n2diy> Balshoy: has your modem reset recently? If so you lost your DNS address. What does "whoami" tell you"?
[09:32] <Flannel> !anyone | princ3
[09:32] <ubotu> princ3: 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?
sure
[09:32] <princ3> well wats wrong is that when partitioning... it gives me no drives to partition
[09:32] <princ3> its just blank
[09:33] <Regenerater> Hi there
[09:33] <Balshoy> I'm not in ubuntu right now... but I'm pretty sure everything is ok... because this is the 5th time this happens... and only in linux... in windows the net works like a charm
[09:33] <isolatednz> lol - yeah I read the "ask question guide" before asking - its a good idea even if your in a hurry to get something fixed, so you don't aggravate the support people
[09:33] <insmod> princ3, ? doesn't list anything ?
[09:33] <allblacks> what is the path where do i have to put the tahoma fonts in wine?
[09:33] <Puke> yo
[09:34] <n2diy> Balshoy: or..., crap, now I forget the command. Can you ping yahoo.com?
[09:34] <princ3> well the first partitioning thing comes up asking me which way to do it.. the only option that comes up is manual so i click proceed or wateva it is... then its just blank where theres mean to be my drives and stuff
[09:34] <sx66> how do I install VLC?
[09:34] <Regenerater> i'm trying to access my windows partition from ubuntu but am having problems
[09:34] <Regenerater> I dont have System->Administration->Disks
sudo apt-get install vlc
[09:34] <Balshoy> now in windows... yes
[09:34] <kraut> is there a problem with the feisty-kernel and the usage of UUIDs as root-device in grub?
[09:35] <kaushal_> Can any one here tell me how to start NET SNMP
[09:35] <tuxican> lets say I do not have x window, how do I go about installing ubuntu from the text window only?
[09:35] <kaushal_> on ubuntu
[09:35] <tuxican> I mean command line only
[09:35] <kaushal_> its installed on my box
[09:35] <kaushal_> ii  snmp                                                5.2.1.2-4ubuntu2.1                         NET SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol
[09:35] <Flannel> tuxican: You use the alternate CD
[09:35] <insmod> princ3, not one ? like hda
[09:35] <sx66> that is cool
[09:35] <tuxican> Flannel: so the tools to do so don't exist for the "regular" one?
[09:36] <princ3> lol not one... it shows nothing... but when i plug my ipod in it.. my ipod shows and allows me to do it on that... but doesnt show my hdd on my comp
[09:36] <n2diy> Balshoy: I don't play in winders, if you have linux/Ubuntu problems lets play.
[09:36] <Flannel> tuxican: the Desktop CD is a liveCD + ubiquity.  Ubiquity only runs through the GUI
[09:36] <Amarilis>  i have a notebook compaq presario r3000 ( amd athlon 3000+ @1600 mhz/512 mb ram/ 80 gb hdd). i installed kubuntu on this notebook. i noticed that kubuntu reports me only half of the processor speed. any idea why?

[09:38] <princ3> um well im on diff come but the one im trying to install ubuntu on has a c drive with windows on it and a d drive with nothing on it
[09:38] <Balshoy> yes... I know what you are saying... but I cannot connect to the net in ubuntu... so right now I'm in a windows environment... like I said... my broadcast address keeps on changing... so if I want net.. I go to windows
[09:38] <princ3> comp**
cool what did you do
old new ?
[09:38] <Lapinux> insmod: just has to remove "splash" from the end of kernel line in menu.1st, then i added "vga=791" for 1024x786 res
[09:39] <predaeus> Amarilis, probably it is speed stepping and lowering cpu speed when it is not needed
[09:39] <kunal> hello, how do I execute a program through terminal without blocking the terminal
 "vga=791 --- that;s it lol
[09:39] <Flannel> kunal: [command]  &
[09:39] <predaeus> kunal, put a "&" behind your command
[09:39] <Lapinux> insmod: only thing is is menu.1st is updated i will have to go back and change it i believe
[09:39] <Lapinux> damn i cant type today
[09:39] <grndslm> hello all....trying to use evolution for the first time, but i don't see where to type my password!!  Even if I tell it not to remember, I don't get a pop-up or anything asking for it...any hints??
 that is what i was thinking of --- /just rename the files in /sbin
[09:40] <Geeerd> Where Do i set the number of desktops in ubuntu?
[09:40] <Flannel> Lapinux: Change the comment at the top of the file, kopt= and add it there.  DONT uncomment, just append
[09:40] <n2diy> kunal: <programnam> &
[09:40] <Balshoy> So... am I to try and restart enter ubuntu and write... what?... how can I be helpful?
[09:40] <predaeus> grndslm, look in the account settings for email, probably it can be entered somewhere there
[09:40] <Lapinux> insmod: i didnt know if i did that if something else would complain or break....?
[09:40] <kunal> so.. will it work.. &gedit and the control will return to terminal
[09:40] <Amarilis> oh... thanks predaeus. i didn't think to that
[09:40] <princ3> insmod: wat u mean by old or new?
[09:40] <princ3> haha
[09:40] <shiester_miester> Geeerd, open preferences for the workspace switcher
[09:40] <chamunks> im trying to setup phpmyadmin with a default ubuntu lamp server and i cant seem to get it working i appear to be stuck at telling apache.conf about phpmyadmin im using this guide here http://preview.tinyurl.com/3csefq
[09:40] <Lapinux> insmod: i would think, only a major update would rewrite grub?
[09:41] <grndslm> predaeus:  nice guess, but i've looked all in the settings, hence me asking here...
computer hard drive
[09:41] <Geeerd> I deleted the workspace switcher
ya
[09:41] <Flannel> Lapinux, insmod, change the comments.  that persists
[09:41] <shiester_miester> Geeerd, right click a panel -> add to panel -> workspace switcher
[09:41] <princ3> insmod: well im thinking its new... its a laptop... and i bought it early last year
[09:41] <chamunks> anyone have any luck setting up phpmyadmin

[09:42] <princ3> i donno how do u know if they are or not?
[09:42] <shiester_miester> can you see them?
[09:43] <muriu> Heres a challenge to all yo felas, a software for converting audio files to text without need for dictation! Anyone with answers holla back now or later to alexmuriu@yahoo.com
bios can do it -- so can apps like norton
[09:43] <n2diy> sx66: for X? Firestarter.
[09:43] <Flannel> Change the comments at the top of menu.lst, kopt=[stuff] .  THAT is what update-grub uses to repopulate the options each time you get a new kernel
[09:43] <sx66> how do I download that?
[09:43] <shiester_miester> muriu, are you talking about dictation software?
[09:43] <princ3> nah i dont think they are the only anti virus thing i run is avast
[09:43] <shiester_miester> i mean, you just record the dictation
[09:44] <heret|c> muriu uses text to speach programs to tell himself he is cool :d
[09:44] <shiester_miester> yeah avast is great
[09:44] <shiester_miester> lol
[09:44] <Rictoo|SLP> how do I see my current kernel version?
[09:44] <sx66> about
[09:44] <Lapinux> Flannel: i saw that but didnt see anything there regaurding what i was changing..... i could of missed it i guess?
 cool <Lapinux> get that
[09:44] <muriu> shiester_miester, not dictation software, my idea is to eliminate the dictation part
[09:44] <Flannel> Lapinux: remove the `splash`, and add the vga=whatever
[09:45] <shiester_miester> muriu, so how does it get the audio file?
[09:45] <Rictoo|SLP> how do I see my current kernel version?
[09:45] <Flannel> Lapinux: You're changing the kopt= line.
[09:45] <princ3> insmod: so no ideas of wat it could be?
[09:45] <n2diy> sx66:  if you don't include my nick in your reply, your message is lost in the backround noise. Get firestarter by using the system>admin>synaptic program.

[09:45] <CheshireViking> !beryl | Geeerd

[09:46] <princ3> how do i make them unhidden?
[09:46] <shiester_miester> do you record it beforehand?

[10:02] <shiester_miester> ubuntu has its own operating system chooser thingo when you start up the computer
[10:03] <defcon_> insmod, thankyou
[10:03] <shiester_miester> and you can choose whether to start in windows or ubuntu
)
[10:03] <sx66> miester, on the partition what do I click?
[10:03] <shiester_miester> huh?
[10:03] <shiester_miester> you have to INSTALL ubuntu
[10:03] <Flannel> manu_: exactly.  That'd be one of the programs. theres a full array of them, for your various download options.  But really, just double clicking a torrent file will start the download
[10:03] <shiester_miester> get a ubuntu cd, put it in the cd drive, reboot the machine and make sure it boots from the ubuntu cd.  then just follow the prompts
[10:03] <Lapinux> shiester_miester: i think hes asking what he does durring the install to get the dual boot
[10:04] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[10:04] <Lapinux> so as to not overwrite everything
[10:04] <shiester_miester> sx66, you dont have to do anything special, just put ubuntu in its own partition
[10:04] <shiester_miester> and make sure you make a partition for swap space
[10:04] <sx66> how do I partiton?
[10:04] <shiester_miester> err...
[10:04] <Lapinux> it will give you the choice durring the install
[10:04] <shiester_miester> sorry im not sure of how to explain how to use the partition software
[10:05] <shiester_miester> its not hard to figure out though
[10:05] <shiester_miester> just as long as your NTFS partition isnt using up 100% of the drive
[10:05] <Lapinux> there might be something on the forums about it, with pics maybe?
[10:05] <shiester_miester> in which case, you will need to shrink it somehow
[10:05] <shiester_miester> yeah im sure there is
[10:05] <shiester_miester> sx66, have you tried looking for a guide on the web?
[10:05] <sx66> nope
[10:06] <sx66> there are three options for partitioning, and I had set it as an 10gb part.
[10:06] <shiester_miester> sx66, you probably should
[10:06] <shiester_miester> its always a good idea to look for other answers and see if you can fix it yourself before asking other people how to do it
[10:06] <shiester_miester> plus then you get the benefit of learning more about linux, rather than having people spoon-feed you an answer

[10:11] <Geeerd> How do i change it in VLC?
[10:12] <purpzey> Geeerd: I had a similar problem. What predaeus is suggesting sounds about right...resolved the issue for me...using x11.
[10:12] <predaeus> Geeerd, settings/preferences/video

[10:45] <kraut> how could i solve the problem of "i486-linux-gnu-gcc: command not found" when i use --arch=i386 and --cross-compile=i486-linux-gnu as options for make-kpkg on an am64-host?
[10:45] <moDumass> any ideas all?
[10:46] <purpzey> moDumass: Yes
[10:46] <purpzey> moDumass: There are some bugs in the new kernel, just select the old one in grub and you'll be good to go.
[10:46] <reverseblade> kraut, #gcc ? , #c ?
[10:46] <novato_br> i cant get the error messages, because i don't know save the log file and on one of mine partitions

[10:47] <moDumass> purpzey is there a way to remove the new kernel from grub?
[10:47] <moDumass> thaks BTW
[10:47] <purpzey> moDumass: I think there is a way to make the old one default...There are a TON of posts on the forums about it
[10:47] <shiester_miester> i thought they only released a new kernel when it was stable?

[10:49] <novato_br> but how can I do? I'm without internet on ubuntu
[10:49] <reverseblade> novato_br, you can write to your ubuntu partition within ubuntu
[10:50] <Ben> How would I go about stoping X from automaticaly starting when I startup?
[10:50] <reverseblade> to write ntfs use ntfs-3g
[10:50] <shiester_miester> novato_br, find a way of getting the files to it without using internet :P
[10:50] <padil> can i know your problem mr / mrs shiester_miester ?

[10:50] <ubotu> novato_br: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[10:51] <shiester_miester> novato_br, are you dual-booting ubuntu and windows?
[10:51] <sx66> my fan is allways on...and I am not doing anything
[10:51] <Ben> reverseblade, How can I stop GDM from starting? Is there an init script or something I can delete?
[10:51] <reverseblade> novato_br, you cannot write to ubuntu from windows though
[10:51] <novato_br> shiester_miester, now, i'm on windows, now and on windows there is internet
[10:51] <shiester_miester> sx66, fans are supposed to be on
[10:51] <novato_br> can I get the pack and install on ubuntu?
[10:51] <padil> hallo, i have a problem on Beryl. My beryl can start. In terminal, it say : Segment fault ( core dumped ). what should i do ?
[10:51] <shiester_miester> novato_br, download the file in windows, then run it in ubuntu
[10:51] <reverseblade> Ben, there is a service manager called sys-vc or something like that install it. Let me check the name for you
[10:51] <novato_br> ok
[10:52] <novato_br> and  the fat?
[10:52] <sx66> all the time on max though, my winxp is not even running fans
[10:52] <Ben> reverseblade, Cheers.
[10:52] <shiester_miester> padil, when does it give that error in the terminal?
[10:52] <novato_br> ubuntu write fat partitions with special tools ?
[10:52] <padil> just now
[10:52] <shiester_miester> does beryl still work?
[10:52] <lkthomas> guys, does iptables nat ruleset will cause any problem for existing connection at all ?
[10:53] <mwe> novato_br: you don't need special tools to write to fat from linux
[10:53] <reverseblade> Ben , install sysvcconfig and run it from console
[10:53] <novato_br> so, mwe how can i get permission to write on fat partitions?
[10:53] <maeth> hi, anybody can help me installing a RPM package?
[10:54] <novato_br> what is it command ?
[10:54] <sx66> is isohunt.com suppost to take 21 hours for a 71mb cd on a T1 line?
[10:54] <mwe> !fstab | novato_br
[10:54] <ubotu> novato_br: The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[10:54] <maeth> i did this
[10:54] <reverseblade> maemo, sudo alien your.rpm (use it at your own risk, alien is not fully stable)
[10:54] <maeth> rpm -ivh turbojpeg-1.04.2.i386.rpm
[10:54] <mwe> novato_br: read that. it explains it
[10:54] <shiester_miester> sx66, isohunt dont host any non-torrent file downloads
[10:54] <maeth> but this came out

[10:54] <ubotu> maeth: please see above
[10:54] <shiester_miester> sx66, also thats very offtopic and has nothing to do with ubuntu
[10:54] <qiyong> ubuntu has certificate 'king'?
[10:54] <sx66> miester, non-torrent files?
[10:55] <reverseblade> maeth, are you using ubuntu ?

[10:55] <shiester_miester> everything on isohunt is a torrent
[10:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about king - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:55] <shiester_miester> thats all it does, is host torrents
[10:55] <shiester_miester> nothing else
[10:55] <maeth> reverseblade, yes
[10:55] <sx66> kool
[10:55] <maeth> reverseblade, 7.04
[10:55] <reverseblade> maeth, then you should convert the rpm package to deb, by using alien
[10:55] <shiester_miester> and it could take a lot longer than that to download 70mb if the torrent wasnt seeded very well
[10:55] <shiester_miester> sometimes it can take weeks to download a torrent if there arent enough seeds
[10:56] <shiester_miester> especially if its a large torrent
[10:56] <maeth> reverseblade, alien? is it supported by ubuntu? i mean , can i dowload it via aptitude?
[10:56] <novato_br> mwe, on ubuntu 7.04 have diskmounter?
[10:56] <dimebar> anyone know what I have to delete to get my applications menu back to default?
[10:56] <dimebar> never mind found it! :)
[10:56] <Myrtti> maeth: next time, PLEASE use pastebin, ok?
[10:56] <maeth> reverseblade, K, i installed alien
[10:56] <reverseblade> maeth, sure , but alien is not 100% stable, it also do not put necessary dependencies. But mostly it works fine
[10:57] <mwe> novato_br: what are you mounting and how? automount?
[10:57] <danielDOM> Hey what distro do you guys find least problems with ?
[10:57] <reverseblade> maemo, sudo alien xxx.rpm
[10:57] <shiester_miester> i dont see why this channel doesnt kick people who paste in gigantic quantities of text
[10:57] <maeth> reverseblade, so now, how do i convert it?
[10:57] <reverseblade> danielDOM, kubuntu
[10:57] <shiester_miester> a lot of other linux-related channels do, as well as channels for anything else
[10:57] <padil> any ideas ?
[10:57] <reverseblade> maeth, do as I said above sudo alien xxx.rpm
[10:57] <shiester_miester> padil, does beryl still run?
[10:58] <danielDOM> reverseblade, ubuntu no good ?
[10:58] <padil> not
[10:58] <Myrtti> !pastebin > maeth
[10:58] <shiester_miester> or is it broken
[10:58] <padil> i cant run it
[10:58] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[10:58] <shiester_miester> you said earlier that beryl worked...
[10:58] <maeth> reverseblade, k, gonna try
[10:58] <sx66> I like how my processor is 5% and it has max fans going
[10:58] <shiester_miester> padil, what graphics card do you have?
[10:58] <reverseblade> danielDOM, it is fine I am using ubuntu. But KDE people are working hard to fix everything. Gnome is lagging unfortunately. Still I like Gnome better than KDE.
[10:58] <shiester_miester> sx66, turn them down on the motherboard, then
[10:59] <padil> nvidia nforce. it Ok and work in my ubuntu
[10:59] <shiester_miester> ok
[10:59] <danielDOM> reverseblade , ah i like KDE a tad better myself :\
[10:59] <shiester_miester> and you have the drivers installed?
[10:59] <sx66> meister, I am on a laptop, is there an app for it?
[10:59] <padil> yes. absolutely
[10:59] <shiester_miester> sx66, i dont know
[11:00] <reverseblade> danielDOM, then Kubuntu is just fine. next october KDE 4 is coming. You can try the alpha
[11:00] <shiester_miester> padil, im not sure.  you should ask in #beryl
[11:00] <padil> thanx veryl muck sheister
[11:00] <shuaop> Hit, motd show the message of the day after login, whay is the way to show a message before login, like advice or something like this?
[11:00] <shiester_miester> no worries, padil
[11:00] <mwe> there is something for lm-sensors to control the fans. not in the repos, though.
[11:00] <shiester_miester> does ubuntu feisty come with AIGLX or XGL?
[11:01] <maeth> reverseblade, k, done and id installed it
[11:01] <Tacroy> Does anyone know offhand how to make dhcpd forward the dns server ipaddresses the dhcp server is using to its dhcp clients?
[11:01] <Tacroy> I'm sure I made it do that at some point.
[11:01] <Frogzoo> shuaop: /etc/issue probly
[11:02] <shuaop> thank you
[11:02] <reverseblade> maeth, so it worked ?
[11:02] <maeth> reverseblade, seems like it
[11:03] <mwe> Tacroy: it doesn't do that by default?
[11:03] <maeth> reverseblade, im trying to install virtualGL
[11:03] <Tacroy> I don't know, it doesn't seem to be doing that.
[11:03] <maeth> reverseblade, wanna use my X server on VNC
[11:04] <mwe> Tacroy: what does it do, then?
[11:04] <garette> hello alll, i recently updated my ubunut ,to feasty fawn, when i rebooted myxserver stopped working, what can i do?
[11:04] <reverseblade> maeth, try to obtain .deb packages, or even source. use rpms as a last resort
[11:04] <Tacroy> mwe: It seems like the client just doesn't get any DNS.
[11:04] <Frogzoo> garette: run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg"
[11:05] <Tacroy> Er, any DNS server.
[11:05] <shane_> Hey guys and gals, a new guy here.
[11:05] <tecno_> well i have ubuntu 7.04 and realtek 861 vd . i can t hear my voice from speakear using microphone but i can t record with audacity i have somre ploblem with recording
[11:05] <garette> Frogozoo, no use sir
[11:05] <Tacroy> (I'm using my Windows laptop as the client, ipconfig /all shows no DNS server)
[11:05] <mwe> Tacroy: option domain-name-servers in dhcpd.conf I think
[11:05] <reverseblade> garette, at what stage are you stuck ? what error do you get and can you boot in safe mode
[11:05] <Tacroy> mwe: I am aware of that, but afaik there's no "auto" option.
[11:06] <maeth> reverseblade, a little late .. :S
[11:06] <Tacroy> So I'd have to come up with one that will always work.
[11:06] <garette> at which gdm should start, xserevr fails,
[11:06] <allyer_br> ./dev/hda1 /media/windows vfat iocharset=utf8,umask=000 0 0
[11:06] <allyer_br> plz
[11:06] <maeth> reverseblade, how bad is it to install something on ubuntu on
[11:06] <maeth> reverseblade, RPM
[11:06] <maeth> ?
[11:06] <Ben> reverseblade, Cheers mate. That worked well.
[11:06] <mwe> Tacroy: Ah. I see what you mean
[11:06] <reverseblade> Ben, your welcome
[11:06] <garette> reverseblade, at which gdm should start
[11:06] <allyer_br> in the last numbers said can be write data on partitions?
[11:06] <maeth> reverseblade, http://www.virtualgl.org/About/Introduction
[11:06] <reverseblade> maeth, dunno , but it is not advisable
[11:06] <Tacroy> Bah, maybe I should just figure out why named doesn't seem to work.
[11:07] <danielDOM> Anyone know a good source for game files for the PS1 and SNES emulators ?
[11:07] <maeth> reverseblade, thats what i want to install
[11:07] <mwe> Tacroy: you want it to hand out the DNS server the the machine itself is using at that particular time?
[11:07] <qaws> hi, how can I set up lpr printer pls? I use Ubuntu 7.04. Settings, which works in Windows - connection to localhost - port standart tcp/ip, printer ip 192.168.1.1, port name IP_192.168.1.1, protocol - LPR, queue name - p1, LPR byte counting - disabled, SNMP status - disabled
[11:07] <Tacroy> mwe: That would be useful, yes.
[11:08] <Tacroy> mwe: I could certainly do it with a bit of shell scripting magic, but that seems kludgey.
[11:08] <mwe> Tacroy: indeed
[11:08] <garette> reverseblade, are you with me, you asked where i am struck!!
[11:08] <mwe> Tacroy: I don't know if it's supported by default
[11:08] <reverseblade> garette, hang on
[11:08] <garette> reveserblade, where gdm should start
[11:08] <Tacroy> Like modify the dhcpd init script to automatically generate a dhcpd.conf that has the right domain name server...
[11:08] <garette> ok
[11:09] <Tacroy> That sounds like a pain in the donkey.
[11:09] <qaws> hi, how can I set up lpr printer pls? I use Ubuntu 7.04. Settings, which works in Windows - connection to localhost - port standart tcp/ip, printer ip 192.168.1.1, port name IP_192.168.1.1, protocol - LPR, queue name - p1, LPR byte counting - disabled, SNMP status - disabled
[11:09] <reverseblade> maeth, I'd recommend compiling from the source. Download the zip source and read the README , INSTALL what ever. if it complains that it cannot find a package install the xxx-dev version of it. And you should be fine. generally ./configure make , sudo make install should be fine to install
[11:10] <foug> my cd drive is stuck, using eject in terminal isn't work. It tells me the drive is busy
[11:10] <reverseblade> garette, do you get an error message ? have you tried running in safe mode ?
[11:10] <Frogzoo> foug: a reboot will fix
[11:10] <maeth> reverseblade, k, gonna do that...
[11:10] <foug> Frogzoo: in the middle of installing something
[11:11] <maeth> reverseblade, do you think that with virtualgl i could see xgl on a VNC session?
[11:11] <Frogzoo> foug: oh noes - 'fuser -c /dev/cdrom'
[11:11] <reverseblade> maeth, dunno. IT is probably designed for 3D gaming stuff.
[11:11] <qaws> hi, how can I set up lpr printer pls? I use Ubuntu 7.04. Settings, which works in Windows - connection to localhost - port standart tcp/ip, printer ip 192.168.1.1, port name IP_192.168.1.1, protocol - LPR, queue name - p1, LPR byte counting - disabled, SNMP status - disabled
[11:11] <maeth> reverseblade, k
[11:11] <foug> Frogzoo: didn't do anything
[11:11] <Frogzoo> foug: that will give you processes accessing the drive, you'll need to kill them, then try eject again
[11:12] <Frogzoo> foug: returned nothing? hmm.. the drive's properly stuck then - why can't you reboot?
[11:12] <Frogzoo> foug: you're installing off the cd?
[11:12] <foug> Frogzoo: in the middle if installing a game through wine
[11:13] <Frogzoo> foug: oh 'wine eject'
[11:14] <shiester_miester> lol
[11:14] <foug> ;P
[11:14] <qaws> hi, how can I set up lpr printer pls? I use Ubuntu 7.04. Settings, which works in Windows - connection to localhost - port standart tcp/ip, printer ip 192.168.1.1, port name IP_192.168.1.1, protocol - LPR, queue name - p1, LPR byte counting - disabled, SNMP status - disabled
[11:15] <garette> reverseblade, which safe mode you mean, recovery mode????
[11:15] <reverseblade> garette, yeah
[11:15] <garette> reverseblade, no use, that didnt help :(
[11:16] <reverseblade> garette, it's not important if it has any use. You should diagnose at what part it fails
[11:16] <Tacroy>  Weird.
[11:17] <Tacroy> ... wth.
[11:17] <garette> welll, i am sure some things wrong with that xorg.conf file, i tried X -configure to reconfigure it and tested it, but no use
[11:17] <garette> :(
[11:17] <Tacroy> The PuTTY terminal shell I have open now is not accepting ses.
[11:17] <reverseblade> garette, while booting select kernel in grub but don't press enter instead press 'e' for edit and add this to the end for the kernel you want to boot  noapic nolapic nosmp
[11:17] <Tacroy> It'll accept S, but not s.
[11:17] <reverseblade> garette, if the problem was at x you should be able to boot into the console
[11:17] <Tacroy> So weird.
[11:17] <^_^> f
[11:18] <garette> reverseblade, well, one moment please, rebooting, :0
[11:18] <^_^>   ?
[11:18] <^_^>    ?
[11:18] <reverseblade> garette, if you don't specify your problem I won't be helpful
[11:18] <Tacroy> Can anyone tell what that is?
[11:18] <Frogzoo> ^_^: this is ubuntu support
[11:18] <garette> reverseblade, i am able to boot into console
[11:18] <reverseblade> then forget what I said
[11:18] <reverseblade> about booting
[11:19] <^_^> Frogzoo         
[11:19] <reverseblade> you should have told this
[11:19] <garette> reverseblade, chechk this, if this concerns me, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/93271
[11:19] <reverseblade> try this :  grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log

[11:20] <Frogzoo> ^_^: stop
[11:20] <^_^> ?
[11:20] <reverseblade> garette, you mentioned me that this happened after the update. So this is not an issue for you
[11:21] <garette> reverseblade, one moment  i am still struck in editing the grub, what you told to do,
[11:21] <lkthomas> guys, how could I remove rules from iptables ?
[11:21] <Frogzoo> lkthomas: all rules?
[11:21] <reverseblade> garette, don't bother I say
[11:21] <lkthomas> Frogzoo, no, only one specific rules

[11:22] <garette> no you told do do some just now right? thats what i am doing
[11:22] <IICV> Is there any way to get rid of the modprobe warning from blacklisting the ipv6 module?

[11:23] <xby> leperkhanz: I just joined. What was your problem? You couldn't play audio streams on myspace, right?
[11:24] <leperkhanz> yeah.
[11:24] <leperkhanz> the whole audio player is just white.
[11:24] <JamzZz> question: in nautilus i make a file read only but i can still delete it. What can i do to make a file not able to be deleted, so i don't accidentally delete the file?
[11:24] <shiester_miester> leperkhanz, do you have the flash player installed?
[11:24] <leperkhanz> I press play in flashblock, then I just get a big white box.
[11:24] <leperkhanz> Yeah, lots of other sites and stuff work.
[11:24] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[11:25] <shiester_miester> well for one thing, you arent missing much
[11:25] <xby> leperkhanz: i don't think it's flash, maybe it's WMV
[11:25] <shiester_miester> and also, i have no idea
[11:25] <xby> since it's a Microsoft site
[11:25] <leperkhanz> even disabling flashblock doesn't help.
[11:25] <leperkhanz> no, it's flash for sure.
[11:25] <garette> revrseblade, grep,showed me up, some error report, shall i tell you?
[11:25] <leperkhanz> i think I just broke it somehow, and don't know how to fix, and now my gf is all heated.
[11:25] <leperkhanz> she loves myspace audio.
[11:25] <xby> leperkhanz: you positive? :O

[11:27] <leperkhanz> nah, I'm switching people in droves to Ubuntu, but minor set backs like this are slowing me down.
[11:27] <garette> reverseblade, grep thing showed me some error report, shall i tell  youo?
[11:27] <leperkhanz> And of course making me look bad.  LOL
[11:28] <xby> leperkhanz: ok, maybe it's flash and somehow playing a WMV stream? Maybe you're missing some codecs? Do you have the w32codecs package?
[11:28] <leperkhanz> think so.
[11:28] <reverseblade> garette, if it is too long (more than 3 lines) paste it to pastbin
[11:28] <garette> no it sless than that
[11:28] <garette> reverse blade,
[11:29] <xby> I use mplayer, w32codecs and a plugin for mozilla that plays streams via mplayer. dunno if the plugin is in the repos though, i compiled it myself
[11:29] <leperkhanz> don't see w32codecs in synaptic.
[11:29] <garette> reverseblade, Loading extension MIT-SCREENS-SAVER
[11:29] <qaws> hi, how can I set up lpr printer pls? I use Ubuntu 7.04. Settings, which works in Windows - connection to localhost - port standart tcp/ip, printer ip 192.168.1.1, port name IP_192.168.1.1, protocol - LPR, queue name - p1, LPR byte counting - disabled, SNMP status - disabled
[11:29] <garette> reverseblade, no devices detected
[11:30] <reverseblade> garette, do a less /var/log/Xorg.0.log find those lines and search it in google and come back
[11:30] <s1mple_m4n> Hi guys, just wondering if anyone else has had trouble with Beryl since the latest kernel update???
[11:30] <xby> leperkhanz: They must be in non-free, maybe the name is a bit different... just a sec
[11:30] <garette> reverseblade, now i have another idea, if you dont mind i wanna say :)
[11:31] <reverseblade> s1mple_m4n, what kinda trouble ?
[11:31] <garette> ?
[11:31] <reverseblade> garette, sure
[11:31] <s1mple_m4n> Thanks reverseblade, when I did the updates yesterday Beryl no longer worked. the emerald icon was there and everything was enabled, just not working.
[11:32] <garette> reverseblade, i guess 100% the problem is with xorg.conf file, so better i copy my previous versions xorg.conf file somehow, and replace it with this one? how would that be?
[11:32] <reverseblade> s1mple_m4n, what is the output for glxinfo | grep direct
[11:32] <s1mple_m4n> direct rendering: Yes
[11:33] <spheard> hey has anyone had a problem with firefox on kde? when I click links it does all the loadin stuff but doesnt display the new page, Its driving me to distraction
[11:33] <reverseblade> garette, may be , you may also try dpgk-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:33] <reverseblade> s1mple_m4n, s1mple_m4n what about the compiz ?
[11:33] <garette> reverseblade, that one didn work,
[11:34] <xby> leperkhanz: Gal/dude, maybe this helps: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Multimedia_Players_.26_Browser_Plug-ins
[11:34] <leperkhanz> anyone figure out what codecs I might be missin?
[11:34] <reverseblade> garette, tried it earlier ?
[11:34] <garette> yep
[11:34] <s1mple_m4n> reverseblade, desktop effects are working - but not very stable.
[11:34] <xby> it explains how to add all the codecs
[11:34] <leperkhanz> thnx... lookin' now.
[11:34] <xby> good luck!
[11:34] <xby> :D
[11:34] <reverseblade> !codecs | leperkhanz
[11:34] <ydo> touch foo bar;mv foo bar <-- this gives me permission denied! how do I change this non-standard behaviour?
[11:34] <ubotu> leperkhanz: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[11:34] <garette> reverseblade, i did lot of googling before coming here :)
[11:35] <reverseblade> garette, investigate the log file I mentioned as well as your Xorg.conf
[11:35] <s1mple_m4n> I don't mind not having desktop effects or beryl, but I love showing it off to friends... :-)
[11:35] <reverseblade> s1mple_m4n, can you run compiz ?
[11:35] <garette> reverseblade, well, then, brb
[11:35] <reverseblade> oh sorry
[11:35] <reverseblade> s1mple_m4n, dunno
[11:35] <leperkhanz> Installed Mediaplayer connectivity plugin... will report back.
[11:36] <reverseblade> leperkhanz, try VLC
[11:36] <s1mple_m4n> reverseblade, is that "enable desktop effects"? when i type compiz into terminal i get a couple of window manager warnings...
[11:36] <reverseblade> s1mple_m4n, not a problem
[11:36] <xby> reverseblade: It's not about a player, but rather that his browser can't play audio on myspace.com
[11:36] <reverseblade> other than that I dunno, you can remove .beryl directory
[11:37] <leperkhanz> doin' that... it's the old standby!
[11:37] <spheard> hey has anyone had a problem with firefox on kde? when I click links it does all the loadin stuff but doesnt display the new page, Its driving me to distraction
[11:37] <reverseblade> xby, isn't that flash ?
[11:37] <leperkhanz> still no myspace audio.
[11:37] <s1mple_m4n> i'
[11:37] <s1mple_m4n> i'll give it a go...
[11:37] <s1mple_m4n> thanks
[11:39] <garette> reverseblade, well, i notice one thing from the log file, Candidate "Device" section "Generic Video Card" in the next line, no devices detected, i selected ati for drivers :)
[11:40] <reverseblade> garette, prolly that it is
[11:40] <xby> reverseblade: dunno, that's what ppl say, but all other flash sites worked for him, except for this one.
[11:40] <garette> reverseblade, my graphics card is, ATI raedon 1400
[11:40] <xby> so i thought, maybe it's flash video as a container, but using WMV codec. is that possible?
[11:41] <reverseblade> no
[11:41] <reverseblade> xby, right click to the stuff and see if it is flash or not
[11:41] <phanto1> can VMware boot from an existing partition( not VM file )?
[11:42] <reverseblade> phanto1, only if you make an image of that partition and install it to vmware
[11:42] <MetaBookfoziS> hi all!how can i set the default xkbmap after boot?
[11:42] <reverseblade> other than that, it's a big fat no
[11:42] <MetaBookfoziS> it always loads en_US but i need and want hu.
[11:43] <leperkhanz> Ok, like for instance I can't watch videos at:
[11:43] <xby> MetaBookfoziS: You use Gnome? It should be doable from the menus then
[11:43] <phanto1> reverseblade: is ther any program wich can
[11:43] <leperkhanz> http://www.crysis-online.com/Media/Videos/hd-video.php
[11:43] <WildHeart> WildHeart
[11:43] <xtreon> anyone using skype and an usbphone?
[11:43] <MetaBookfoziS> no, it's kde, that also can do that
[11:43] <garette> reverseblade, anyways i am not gonna worry, about each and every line of my xorg.conf file, i am now gonna, boot from a live cd, (prolly the one which works) , and use that xorg.conf and replace with mine! what do you say
[11:43] <garette> ?
[11:43] <MetaBookfoziS> but i want hu on terminals also
[11:43] <reverseblade> phanto1, try searching forums like "existing vmware" , and you'll find
[11:44] <xby> leperkhanz: I guess you can't watch the ones ending in wmv? That is why you have to install Windows Media Codecs
[11:44] <reverseblade> garette, it is better to solve the problem manually than that .
[11:44] <xby> follow the guide i gave you!
[11:44] <garette> reverseblade, why so?
[11:44] <leperkhanz> none of 'em.  avi either.
[11:45] <leperkhanz> opens vlc then just sits there.
[11:45] <reverseblade> garette, that's a more st8 forward solution. you can do what you said, you want to give up
[11:45] <garette> :)
[11:45] <xby> leperkhanz: Strange, cuz vlc should be able to handle it. I dunno then
[11:45] <r4663r> hello
[11:45] <reverseblade> !hi | r4663r
[11:45] <ubotu> r4663r: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[11:46] <leperkhanz> *sigh* this kind of stuff should "just work" in Ubuntu.
[11:46] <xby> try reinstalling vlc, or try mplayer or xine with the w32codecs (see the guide)
[11:46] <reverseblade> leperkhanz, I can play every kinda video , but not through a web site
[11:46] <reverseblade> leperkhanz, also automatix
[11:47] <r4663r> after updating the kernel from 2.6.20-15 to 2.6.20-16 i cant boot my ubuntu, directly after loading the kernel (2.6.20-16) theres a message "cant find /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.dep". but this file exists, i think the new kernel doesnt load the root filesystem, does anybody know what to do?
[11:47] <spheard> hey has anyone had a problem with firefox on kde? when I click links it does all the loadin stuff but doesnt display the new page, Its driving me to distraction, refreshing the page has no effect
[11:47] <CheshireViking> !automatix
[11:47] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[11:47] <reverseblade> r4663r, try installing "linux-generic"
[11:47] <reverseblade> that's bs
[11:47] <reverseblade> automatix is just fine
[11:47] <r4663r> reverseblade i think its installed?
[11:48] <reverseblade> r4663r, I don't think so. it is "linux-generic" and nothing else, check it out
[11:48] <r4663r> it is installed!
[11:48] <reverseblade> umm
[11:48] <frinux> hi
[11:48] <spheard> join #ubuntu+1
[11:49] <Bokeh> reverseblade: automatix is "just fine" for 99% of the people, but when it breaks something people automatically blame ubuntu.
[11:49] <r4663r> 2.6.20-15 is loading my root filesystem, but not 2.6.20-16
[11:49] <reverseblade> r4663r, what the hack is `uname` there . That should have been resolved  ?
[11:49] <Bokeh> and it tends to break some stuff every blue moon
[11:49] <r4663r> its linux-2.6.20-16-generic
[11:50] <reverseblade> Bokeh, #ubuntu ops has a negative attitude for automatix from the beginning . I think it is %99.9
[11:50] <defcon_> when u install tor, where does it install at startup, id like to remove it
[11:50] <defcon_> how do I remove a service from startup?
[11:51] <frinux> I've got a problem with my wifi dongle : it worked fine since this morning, when I rebooted. I plug it, and nothing happens (logs are empty, they just show that the key has been plugged)
[11:51] <frinux> it is a zd1211 dongle
[11:51] <Bokeh> well, i can imagine they don't want anything to do with it. people think it's very closely related to ubuntu while it's not. it'd be the same like, for example, install the intel fortran compiler's .deb and then complaining here that it's ubuntu's fault it doesn't work
[11:52] <Bokeh> i've had a few systems broken by automatix during the upgrade from edgy to feisty myself
[11:52] <deadowl> any networking geniuses around?
[11:52] <defcon_> where do I edit startup options for system services?
[11:52] <leperkhanz> I couldn't get automatix to install from the .deb.  gave me a dpkg error.
[11:52] <reverseblade> Bokeh, lol upgrade ? May be the upgrade is itself broken
[11:53] <Bokeh> nope, because it were only the systems i used automatix on that had a problem.
[11:53] <reverseblade> defcon_, sudo apt-get install sysvconfig
[11:53] <sivaji> defcon_ use kcontrol to edit that
[11:53] <Myrtti> I had no probs upgrading from edgy to feisty
[11:53] <defcon_> reverseblade, thankyou
[11:53] <leperkhanz> i just want video and audio online!  *sigh*.  I think this should be the top priority for gutsy.  That and ditching the brown of course.
[11:53] <defcon_> sivaji, thankyou
[11:53] <Bokeh> if upgrading edgy->feisty was broken you'd have heard a lot more people complaining :)
[11:53] <defcon_> sivaji, im not in kubuntu
[11:53] <sivaji> ok
[11:54] <reverseblade> Bokeh, I do hear it. garette is one example
[11:54] <deadowl> okay so my wireless is not detecting anything since the kernel upgrade (BCM4310 UART rev01, ndiswrapper v1.45)
[11:54] <reverseblade> deadowl, re install ndiswrapper
[11:55] <Bokeh> ofcourse it happens sometimes, but the fact remains that the installations that i used automatix on had to be fixed from a broken state, and only those systems.
[11:55] <deadowl> i can't count the number of times i've tried that one one hand.
[11:55] <JC_Denton_> when compiling a c program how can I link it with my header and the .c file that implements the header
[11:55] <Tacroy> I'm having severe problems getting dnsmasq to work, where should I go for help with that?
[11:55] <reverseblade> Bokeh, have you encountered automatix breaking a system (not through an upgrade) for the last 1 year ?
[11:55] <Bokeh> and i can imagine that ubuntu devs don't want their product's name is being used by something that doesn't meet their QA requirements
[11:55] <Bokeh> no, i'm talking about automatix breaking on upgrades.
[11:56] <reverseblade> Bokeh, I have no other question , your honor
[11:56] <magnet> JC_Denton_: ld
[11:56] <Bokeh> lol :D
[11:56] <CheshireViking> reverseblade, my experience has been that if i'm using only app's from the official repo's (no beryl, automatix, anything non-standard, official nvidia drivers rather than nvidia-glx etc) the upgrades work fine, if there's anything non-official, then the upgrade is more likely to break
[11:56] <Bokeh> the fact that automatix breaks an ubuntu system on an upgrade from old-stable to stable means enough to me
[11:57] <reverseblade> CheshireViking, we should define the work break
[11:57] <reverseblade> CheshireViking, in your context it refers to X breaking. This even happens after regular kernel updates
[11:57] <Bokeh> if people with very little computer knowledge upgrade their system and see it in a completely useless state because some friend recommended to use automatix, they will very likely blame it on ubuntu, and not automatix.
[11:57] <Myrtti> !away > finfin|aw
[11:57] <CheshireViking> reverseblade, ok, fail to upgrade then
[11:57] <Bokeh> because it looks like the ubuntu upgrade process broke their system, while it was in fact automatix
[11:57] <hylje> hey is there anything tunable in Synaptics Touchpad?
[11:57] <Bokeh> and that ruins ubuntu's good name, i can imagine people not wanting that :)
[11:58] <reverseblade> CheshireViking, I've never seen a story of "fail to upgrade" typo failure ,never. It either breaks X or network
[11:58] <hylje> i'd appreciate dynamic acceleration for it, for it is tiresome to go around my display with it
[11:58] <reverseblade> Bokeh, I know this defence. Well you needn't to argue me. I understand you. and you understand me
[11:59] <Bokeh> i don't mind people using automatix, in fact i use it myself because i find it very easy, however there should be a big warning sign provided with it :)
[11:59] <JC_Denton_> magnet would you care to elaborate? I include the header but when compiling the c file the method called remains undefined
[11:59] <CheshireViking> reverseblade, its like the last feisty kernel updates, that broke my X, but I knew why, i was using the nvidia official driver, not the one in the repo's
[12:00] <reverseblade> CheshireViking, you should have linux-generic packet installed (which is not by default) . It also upgrades  the nvidia-glx-new
[12:01] <magnet> JC_Denton_: well this is hardly the proper channel, but ... the linking is done by ld, usually invoked by gcc. This is so basic I don't know what precisely you're doing wrong
[12:01] <ydo> why can't I rename files overwriting other files? have the same problem with sed: touch foo; sed -i 's/foo/bar/' foo -> sed: cannot rename ./sedf40NEu: Operation not permitted
[12:01] <Bokeh> ydo: do you have permissions on that directory or file?
[12:01] <ydo> Bokeh: yes, ofcourse
[12:01] <reverseblade> Bokeh, the difference is I think that warning sign should be small. The stuff in "!autmatix" is too offending
[12:01] <magnet> JC_Denton_: so would YOU care to elaborate? ;)
[12:01] <CheshireViking> reverseblade, rather than suggesting automatix, i prefer to use sevea's multimedia meta package that seems to install everything i need for multimedia & hasn't broken anything that i'm aware of
[12:01] <JC_Denton_> magnet , I would
[12:02] <bonii> !automatix
[12:02] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[12:02] <Bokeh> odd
[12:02] <s-toned> I've got 2 systems with 7.04: the first began to make mouse clicks while scrolling up with the mouse wheel some days ago. The second started to do the same thing today. Any hints?
[12:02] <reverseblade> CheshireViking, I don't suggest it. Seveas banned me once because of this automatix discussion. lol. There is also envy
[12:03] <JC_Denton_> How should I compile the .c file implementing the header? gcc -c headerlib , then compile the .c including the header with standard gcc file.c
[12:03] <CheshireViking> reverseblade, i think envy is no longer recommended either
[12:03] <CheshireViking> !envy > CheshireViking
[12:03] <Bokeh> probably some restriction in sed then i guess, i don't use it for that kind of stuff so i can't really help you out there :0
[12:03] <magnet> JC_Denton_: ok, so first off, the headers aren't the "lib"
[12:03] <reverseblade> JC_Denton_, #gcc, #c
[12:04] <magnet> JC_Denton_: you only build your .c file (ie gcc -o prog prog.c)
[12:04] <magnet> JC_Denton_: headers are meant to share declarations among modules
[12:04] <CheshireViking> reverseblade, lets leave the automatix discussion anyway as its offtopic, might be worth you checking out the factoid on envy as well now, the changed one made me laugh
[12:05] <Bokeh> !envy > Bokeh
[12:05] <Bokeh> now i want to see it :D
[12:05] <reverseblade> CheshireViking,  don't care about automatix especially not in this channel
[12:05] <Bokeh> rofl
[12:05] <pot_> anyone know how to get rid of this "Manual network configuration" icon that is always in my notification area?
[12:05] <deadowl> repeat: okay so my wireless is not detecting anything since the kernel upgrade (BCM4310 UART rev01, ndiswrapper v1.45) I've tried reinstalling. What isn't working is the detection/connecting of/to networks
[12:06] <reverseblade> deadowl, tried sudo dhclient ?
[12:06] <JC_Denton_> magnet, thanks. keep getting DHTLibTest.c:(.text+0x2e): undefined reference to `DHTHandleStore'             though. the prototype is defined in the header and implemented in the  .c file sharing the same name
[12:06] <space_ninja> is gnome faster than kde?
[12:06] <reverseblade> space_ninja, no
[12:06] <deadowl> that thing that keeps telling me stuff in the kernel log?
[12:06] <magnet> space_ninja: yes.
[12:06] <reverseblade> space_ninja, same speed
[12:07] <reverseblade> deadowl, what does it say specifically ?
[12:07] <magnet> JC_Denton_: do you #include the proper header?
[12:07] <[selfsearcher] > reverseblade: KDE requires much memory btw
[12:07] <space_ninja> ok
[12:07] <reverseblade> [selfsearcher] , so ?
[12:07] <deadowl> 05/30/2007 06:06:58 AM	deadOwlSurvivor	dhclient	DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 interval 3
[12:08] <deadowl> and then that with different interval numbers
[12:08] <reverseblade> deadowl, and finaly ?
[12:08] <deadowl> 05/30/2007 06:07:29 AM deadOwlSurvivor dhclient No DHCPOFFERS received.
[12:08] <JC_Denton_> magnet, yes the include is there, correct spelling too
[12:08] <[selfsearcher] > reverseblade: so Gnome is faster than KDE on a machine without lot of memory
[12:08] <deadowl> 05/30/2007 06:07:29 AM deadOwlSurvivor dhclient No working leases in persistent database - sleeping.
[12:08] <reverseblade> [selfsearcher] , that depends on what  "lot of" means.
[12:08] <magnet> JC_Denton_: can you paste the code to a pastebin site, I'm sure it's nothing
[12:09] <JC_Denton_> magnet , will do
[12:09] <space_ninja> ok
[12:09] <[selfsearcher] > reverseblade: 2 GB RAM is a lot for me
[12:09] <anAngel> Hello Could anybody suggest me a good and with a lots of features monitoring tool for a router? I am searching for easy to setup out of the box monitoring tool with lots of features. I want to know what traffic comes in and out of the router what is being stopped etc. Or at least with lots of modules ready for install.
[12:09] <reverseblade> [selfsearcher] , with 512 MB ram, I bet KDE and Gnome will be the same in performance wise
[12:09] <spheard> reverseblade: that isnt true
[12:10] <reverseblade> spheard, how it isn't true ?
[12:10] <spheard> reverseblade: gnome is quicker
[12:10] <space_ninja> :)
[12:10] <deadowl> GNOME seems more stable imo, has a better desktop. kwin seems to beat out metacity imho though
[12:10] <[selfsearcher] > reverseblade: i think my ATI has problems with KDE because gnome works well but KDE is a bit slower ...
[12:10] <reverseblade> anAngel, nagios, wireshark
[12:11] <ydo> why can't I rename files overwriting other files? have the same problem with sed: touch foo; sed -i 's/foo/bar/' foo -> sed: cannot rename ./sedf40NEu: Operation not permitted. The problem is in the rename syscall and over NFS only
[12:11] <magnet> [selfsearcher] : video cards don't know anything about your desktop environment
[12:11] <spheard> deadowl, nope gnome is still rubbish, just runs faster. Its a better optomised peice of code
[12:11] <panth3r> yo
[12:12] <panth3r> is anyone else having an issue with feisty
[12:12] <panth3r> where if you hibernate
[12:12] <space_ninja> I hope the programs on ubuntu are just as good as those in kubuntu
[12:12] <panth3r> or suspend it doesnt come back to normal?
[12:12] <sdf> hi what are the libraries that required for sound and movies play??
[12:12] <anAngel> reverseblade: as far as i know wireshark isnt very secure
[12:12] <deadowl> my metrics are based on functionality and ease-of-use
[12:12] <[selfsearcher] > magnet: so it's only my impression? Well, both WM are good. I prefer Gnome but it's personal taste in the end
[12:12] <reverseblade> anAngel, huh ?
[12:13] <spheard> deadowl actually, kubuntu does seem to be loosing the edge a little
[12:13] <sdf> libraries for sound and movies for totem??
[12:13] <magnet> [selfsearcher] : Gnome is faster because it is lighter (and in C), but it doesn't have anything to do with ATI or NVIDIA cards. I do prefer Gnome and GTK too. KDE and Qt are just ugly :)
[12:13] <sdf> please
[12:13] <JC_Denton_> magnet http://pastebin.ca/522166
[12:14] <Math^> lo... does anyone know how I get aMSN's fonts antialiased? the fonts looks realy ugly
[12:14] <[selfsearcher] > magnet: thank you :) so it wasn't only my impression lol
[12:14] <JC_Denton_> Math^ u using .96 ?

[12:14] <sivaji> sdf apt-cache search audio
[12:14] <Math^> JC_Denton_: ye
[12:15] <magnet> JC_Denton_: does DHTMessageHandlers.c compile ?
[12:15] <JC_Denton_> Math^ upgrade to .97
[12:15] <Math^> hmmk
[12:15] <magnet> JC_Denton_: gcc -c DHTMessageHandlers.c
[12:15] <deadowl> the only real difference kwin and metacity is the window menu (kwin shows more), the choice to have magnetic windows or edge resistence (hard-coded in metacity), the ability to remap titlebar mouse events (hard-coded in metacity), and an actual GUI for configuring stuff like ordering of info on the titlebar
[12:15] <Math^> ok, hoor net dat ik dan beter ver 0.97 ofzo kan gaan gebruiken
[12:16] <deadowl> that and kwin supports transparency (in an ugly sense)
[12:16] <deadowl> pseudo-transparency you could say
[12:16] <JC_Denton_> magnet , the file does compile
[12:16] <magnet> JC_Denton_: ok so here lies the problem
[12:16] <deadowl> I still find that gnome's desktop panels are a lot better though.
[12:16] <sivaji> what is decompiler
[12:17] <magnet> JC_Denton_: when you build a file using a module, the file needs the headers to know about declarations, but at linking time you need the binary object (.o)
[12:17] <magnet> JC_Denton_: so first build DHTMessageHandlers.c using gcc -o DHTMessageHandlers.o -c DHTMessageHandlers.c
[12:17] <magnet> JC_Denton_: then you build your executable using gcc -o prog DHTMessageHandlers.o prog.c
[12:18] <magnet> (prog.c's being the file where the main function is)
[12:18] <panth3r> can anyone confirm that feisty does not return from a hibernate
[12:19] <magnet> panth3r: it doesn't on any computer I tried
[12:19] <Frogzoo> panth3r: I haven't got it to work, no
[12:19] <magnet> panth3r: i guess (or hope) it works on some computer
[12:19] <JC_Denton_> magnet, thanks a lot
[12:19] <panth3r> damn
[12:19] <deadowl> repeat: okay so my wireless is not detecting anything since the kernel upgrade (BCM4310 UART rev01, ndiswrapper v1.45) I've tried reinstalling. What isn't working is the detection/connecting of/to networks
[12:19] <magnet> JC_Denton_: np, next time try your favourite C beginner tutorial :)
[12:19] <panth3r> thanks magnet and Frogzoo
[12:19] <JC_Denton_> I'm now back to a header thats included multiple times judging by a double definition of main error
[12:20] <panth3r> im off :-)
[12:20] <deadowl> l8r
[12:20] <JC_Denton_> magnet.. google didnt find me a suitable tutorial where the actual compiler was mentioned
[12:20] <magnet> JC_Denton_: then ifndef at the beginning of headers helps avoiding multiple definitions
[12:21] <magnet> JC_Denton_: C compilers are normalized, they all share the same options
[12:21] <deadowl> #include<cstdio.h> int main(int argc, char ** argv) { printf("Hello World!"); return 0; }
[12:21] <Sergo-Ubuntu> hello
[12:21] <Sergo-Ubuntu> i have an problem
[12:21] <ddienes> can someone help me with the ubuntu install?
[12:22] <magnet> deadowl: you'd use stdio.h with C and cstdio with C++ :)
[12:22] <Sergo-Ubuntu> Error trying to open /dev/hdb exclusively (Device or resource busy)... retrying in 1 second.
[12:22] <Sergo-Ubuntu> what is this
[12:22] <Sergo-Ubuntu> why i can't blank the Cd-RW
[12:22] <deadowl> magnet: shows you how much of a language slut i am
[12:22] <magnet> Sergo-Ubuntu: because you have a file descriptor open on that CD
[12:22] <Sergo-Ubuntu> magnet: what is this?
[12:22] <magnet> Sergo-Ubuntu: close all files/file explorers open on the CD
[12:22] <erUSUL> Sergo-Ubuntu: some other app is using your drive
[12:22] <JC_Denton_> magnet ifndef libname include libname endif?
[12:23] <Zoiks> how do I change the default torrent client from the stupid one that is built in to ktorrent?
[12:23] <Sergo-Ubuntu> magnet: i don't see any files opened of the CD
[12:23] <Sergo-Ubuntu> i closed them all..
[12:23] <magnet> JC_Denton_: no :)
[12:23] <deadowl> JC, that generally goes in the header itself
[12:23] <Sergo-Ubuntu> magnet: how to close all files?
[12:23] <Sergo-Ubuntu> =] 
[12:23] <JC_Denton_> ah, ok
[12:23] <magnet> Sergo-Ubuntu: well, unmount the CD next maybe :)
[12:24] <Sergo-Ubuntu> wodim: No such file or directory.
[12:24] <Sergo-Ubuntu> Cannot open SCSI driver!
[12:24] <magnet> JC_Denton_: we call that a "header guard"
[12:24] <deadowl> so you have #ifndef blah, #define blah, bunches of code, #endif
[12:24] <JC_Denton_> its there already
[12:24] <magnet> yeah I know, but maybe you messed in the .c and duplicated the function prototypes
[12:24] <magnet> JC_Denton_: what is your actual error message?
[12:24] <Sergo-Ubuntu> the Linux work sometime very strange
[12:25] <sivaji> sudo shutdown -h 100 *going to halt now* when this command will halt my system after 100sec for after 100min
[12:25] <leperkhanz> Wow, Automatix2 is impressive.
[12:25] <magnet> sivaji: secs
[12:25] <leperkhanz> Probably be my first install on Ubuntu from now on.
[12:25] <magnet> sivaji: use 100m for minutes
[12:25] <Sergo-Ubuntu> failed to blank Cd... ( bored.. i'll use the future version of Ubuntu that will come in Octomber maybe will be more powerfull
[12:25] <Sergo-Ubuntu> and stable..
[12:26] <magnet> Sergo-Ubuntu: maybe you should check on the Ubuntu wiki
[12:26] <predaeus> sivaji, see "man shutdown"
[12:26] <MediaAtTech> aloha!
[12:26] <magnet> I never owned a CD-RW :)=
[12:26] <JC_Denton_> http://pastebin.ca/522182
[12:26] <predaeus> Sergo-Ubuntu, what program are you using?
[12:27] <deadowl> CD-Rs are so disposable that CD-RWs aren't worth it
[12:27] <Sergo-Ubuntu> predaeus: gnomebaker
[12:27] <deadowl> DVD-RWs, on the other hand... yum.
[12:27] <sivaji> predaeus ya i saw that but i get this command long back still it is not halts my system
[12:27] <sivaji> predaeus ya i saw that but i run this command long back still it is not halts my system
[12:27] <predaeus> Sergo-Ubuntu, you can also try k3b, a kde application that you can easily install in gnome too
[12:27] <deadowl> why does wireless hate me :(
[12:28] <space_ninja> where can I read about the programs that are included in ubuntu?
[12:28] <JC_Denton_> Magnet, incase  u missed it , http://pastebin.ca/522182
[12:28] <magnet> I did miss it, thanks
[12:28] <magnet> JC_Denton_: remove the main function from DHLibTest.c
[12:28] <deadowl> space_ninja, just do searches for best linux ______ apps
[12:28] <deadowl> on google
[12:29] <magnet> JC_Denton_: you can have only one main function (here in what I refered to as "prog.c")
[12:29] <Sergo-Ubuntu> predaeus: the k3b works fine
[12:29] <JC_Denton_> magnet, though in the ifndef condition it uses a load of underscores, why is that?
[12:29] <Sergo-Ubuntu> i know this, is the best..
[12:29] <magnet> space_ninja: on the Ubuntu website and wiki
[12:29] <Sergo-Ubuntu> :)
[12:29] <sivaji> magnet  sudo shutdown -h 100 *going to halt now*  i ran this command long back still my system is running by this time it should halt
[12:29] <predaeus> space_ninja, you mean what is installed by default? to cover all programs would be overkill. but look at http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatisubuntu/desktop/features and http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/ and so on
[12:29] <magnet> JC_Denton_: to avoid name collisions, that's just an habit
[12:29] <magnet> some sort of convention
[12:30] <Zoiks> how do i change the default torrent client?
[12:30] <JC_Denton_> magnet, but the entry point is supposed to be the entry point - there shouldn't be any other mains
[12:30] <magnet> JC_Denton_: exactly, and here you have two mains.
[12:31] <sivaji> predaeus magnet tell me why it is not working
[12:31] <JC_Denton_> magnet, where is the other one in that case, I dont see it
[12:31] <predaeus> please discuss C problems in the
[12:31] <predaeus> #C channel
[12:31] <ddienes> can someone help me with an interesting install problem?
[12:31] <JC_Denton_> magnet... the q above is not formulated too well... these are the only three files used
[12:31] <predaeus> sivaji, I've no idea. Probably you stopped the command with another one
[12:32] <magnet> JC_Denton_: let's finish this in private
[12:32] <magnet> ddienes: are there any install problems that would deserve to be called "interesting"? :)
[12:33] <ddienes> lol fair call
[12:33] <ddienes> ok, i have 7.04 live cd and when the cd boots on one laptop i get the menu to select the install or memtest etc.. but on this laptop i get a different screen on boot and can only run ubuntu off ram? do you know what i mean?
[12:34] <magnet> ddienes: same CD? not standard  vs alternate install?
[12:35] <FtS> can someone tell me if have any projects like this: The person receive instructions about some programing language and he need to make using the instructions some software to the comunity? he learns free but he pay back with softwares??
[12:35] <cge> FtS: Usually the instructions tend to simply be entirely free.
 of course is free
[12:36] <magnet> FtS: what is the free software community?
[12:36] <magnet> oops this isn't Jeopardy, sorry :)
[12:36] <Sergo-Ubuntu> hello
[12:36] <Sergo-Ubuntu> what is : lsmod && halt?
[12:36] <Sergo-Ubuntu> someone suggest me to do this
[12:36] <ddienes> magnet: same CD. that is the problem. i can't figure out why this laptop wont boot like the other one... have you ever heard of this problen?
[12:36] <magnet> Sergo-Ubuntu: don't
[12:36] <Sergo-Ubuntu> i want to know if this will not harm my system
[12:36] <FtS> magnet:  u don't understand.... what i am saying...
[12:36] <Sergo-Ubuntu> magnet: ok
[12:36] <magnet> Sergo-Ubuntu: it will halt your system
[12:36] <garette> reverseblade, still there?
[12:36] <magnet> FtS: you don't understand jokes :)
[12:37] <FtS> magnet: I thought in a project where u can learn how to programing and through this u "pay back" programing....
[12:37] <predaeus> Sergo-Ubuntu, lsmod lists all loaded kernel modules (drivers). connected with && halt will be executed afterwards and will shutdown your computer
[12:37] <moDumass> hmmm, just stumbled onto this, wish it was "ubuntu surface" saw the technology on youtube ages ago
[12:37] <moDumass> http://www.microsoft.com/surface/
[12:37] <predaeus> Sergo-Ubuntu, see "man lsmod",   "man halt"
[12:37] <predaeus> Sergo-Ubuntu, always do a "man command" first if you come along a new command
[12:38] <FtS> magnet:  my mother language is not english, we in Brazil have others jokes... it's difficult to me to get the meaning ^^
[12:38] <magnet> FtS: me neither :)
[12:38] <Sergo-Ubuntu> thanks
[12:38] <garette> i am configuring my xorg.conf, but with some problems, well, my log file shows me that, "not using mode "1280x800" (no mode of this name)", what might be the error in xorg.conf?
[12:39] <compengi> FtS, then i guess that if you want to say a joke that is suspicious then you need to know the consequences
[12:39] <ddienes> do you have to load up ubuntu os desktop to install it?
[12:39] <defrysk> garette, shout is not be 1280x1024 ?
[12:39] <CheshireViking> ddienes, if you use the live cd, yes, if you use the alternate cd, that installs from a text based installer
[12:40] <payam> /J #payam
[12:40] <compengi> FtS, that maybe someone won't understand it especially if you are translating from one language to another :)
[12:40] <garette> defrysk, mine is wide screen resolution?
[12:40] <CheshireViking> !install | ddienes
[12:40] <ubotu> ddienes: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install?

[12:40] <defrysk> garette, ah I see
[12:40] <garette> defrysk, so i am correck or somethings wrong?
[12:40] <HiddenHax> does anyone have a proxies I can use?
[12:41] <HiddenHax> proxy
 u don't think that some kind of project can be good?
[12:41] <defrysk> garette, could be you need the videodrivers for a correct resolution
[12:41] <hopper> How can I install ubuntu feisty from the console? I have the DVD.
[12:41] <compengi> FtS, i wasn't following your convo
[12:41] <garette> defrysk, correct*, well the problem of xorg.conf strarted cause i upgdated to feasty fawn,
[12:42] <FtS> convo?
[12:42] <compengi> FtS, conversation
[12:42] <defrysk> I see
[12:42] <FtS> ow...
[12:42] <FtS> ok!
[12:42] <garette> defrysk, well, without video drivers, no such resolution would be redered or what?
[12:42] <garette> defrysk, well, with vesa i meant :)
[12:43] <cge> hopper: The DVD has it as a boot option
[12:43] <defrysk> vesa is a generic driver not sure about the supported resolutions
[12:43] <defrysk> garette, what videocard do you have ?
[12:43] <garette> defrysk, well i use ati thing, should i do installation for opensource ati drivers and check out. ?
[12:44] <compengi> !alternate | hopper
[12:44] <ubotu> hopper: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[12:44] <cge> compengi: Hopper just said he had the DVD
[12:44] <defrysk> garette, unfortunately I have no experience with ati drivers but I think I would opt for the open source drivers
[12:44] <compengi> cge, but he wanted a command line install that's alternate install
[12:45] <cge> compengi: The DVD does both
[12:45] <garette> defrysk, well, i have one more doubt, cause, it aslo shows me up, "not using built-in mode "1024x768" : (no mode of this name)"
[12:45] <hopper> Well thanks anyway for all the info.
[12:45] <obsethryl> hello, i was wondering, is anyone to add pidgin to the repositories or this will remain on hold for now (gaim became pidgin recently so i guess new dev branch as well)
[12:45] <cge> hopper: Just use the text-mode option that comes up
[12:45] <cge> hopper: when booting the DVD
[12:46] <defrysk> garette, if you use the vesa driver its likely not to be supported
[12:46] <obsethryl> of note, so far I have only found this: http://download.ubuntu.pl/_Feisty_Fawn/pidgin/ regarding the pre-compiled stuff
[12:46] <PriceChild> obsethryl, pidgin will be in gutsy
[12:46] <HiddenHax> anyone have a proxy?
[12:46] <garette> defrysk, well my doubt is, this above resolution is what vesa can render, but it still exits, does this mean, that, "this is not compatible for my screen thats why itsexiting?"
[12:46] <obsethryl> i compiled it here ok, no problem, but i was just wondering if we are to have an additional repo for feisty
[12:46] <garette> defrysk, above resolution = 1024x768
[12:46] <obsethryl> PriceChild: thanks, so for now it is build it on your own, right?
[12:46] <cge> obsethryl: I'm sure there will be at least 5 of them...
[12:46] <CheshireViking> !offtopic | HiddenHax
[12:46] <ubotu> HiddenHax: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:47] <PriceChild> obsethryl, for now it is use gaim, there's not much difference :)
[12:47] <garette> defrysk, got my doubt?
[12:47] <obsethryl> PriceChild: of course
[12:47] <defrysk> garette, not a compatible resolution, vesa will render a standard resolution like 1024x800 800x600 etc
[12:47] <obsethryl> i was just asking that out for the sake of completeness since google is not always a helpful friend :)
[12:47] <defrysk> garette, so just no wide screen resolutions
[12:48] <garette> defrysk, well but that resolution is not a compatible one for my screen right? will the xserver still wrok then?
[12:48] <cge> HiddenHax: Err, are you asking because you have questions about running one?
[12:48] <Sergo-Ubuntu> sorry peoples. but whay i can do
[12:48] <Sergo-Ubuntu> i got this error
[12:48] <HiddenHax> cge I need one please
[12:48] <Sergo-Ubuntu> sudo cdrecord blank=fast dev=0,1,0
[12:49] <obsethryl> hmm found some new stuff regarding this, forums, heh i love forums :P

[12:49] <garette> defrysk, cause, if that was the problem , i will have a little hope of starting x-server, after installing ati drivers, if not, i am gone :(
[12:49] <defrysk> garette, X will start , but not with a compatable resolution, you' ll see a black bar on both sides of the screen probably
[12:49] <HiddenHax> cge Just can't get my hands on any
[12:49] <cge> HiddenHax: Ah. #ubuntu isn't really the place to ask. Maybe try #freenode-social?

[12:56] <ubotu> shane_: 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).

[12:56] <cge> shane_: Is it a second sound card, or the only sound card? Disregard the message from ubotu, as it is quite likely wrong.
[12:57] <shane_> cge, the only one
[12:58] <cge> shane_: Ah. Then you can try the things ubotu suggested, or ...
[12:58] <cge> Oh well
[12:58] <cge> shane_: Ah. Then you can try the things ubotu suggested, or ...

[01:00] <Sergo-Ubuntu> peoples
[01:00] <cge> inflex: If you need a permanent solution you can probably modify the image for that.
[01:00] <Sergo-Ubuntu> why i can't eras the simple cd-rw
[01:00] <Sergo-Ubuntu> it's really i need to use windows xp to do this?
[01:00] <Sergo-Ubuntu> =[
[01:01] <inflex> cge: ja, not that I try to reboot too often ;)
[01:01] <cge> Sergo-Ubuntu: I've been doing that for years without problems, but it could be you have an unsupported drive.
[01:01] <superkirbyartist> How does "Emulate 3 buttons" work?

[01:02] <cge> Sergo-Ubuntu: ah!
[01:02] <erUSUL> superkirbyartist: when you press both right and left button at once you get a middle button press

[01:03] <cge> superkirbyartist: I can't quite remember what needs to be done; there is some other program that allows you to emulate three buttons by holding down a modifier with the button
[01:03] <superkirbyartist> Isn't there a way to emulate right click?
[01:04] <Ng> superkirbyartist: check out the package "mouseemu"
[01:04] <hsa2> I downloaded ubuntu. But when I try to install it I cannot.
[01:04] <hsa2> Because of graphic resolution.
[01:04] <cge> superkirbyartist: I think that's it, yes.
[01:06] <_pirinto__> hsa2: Have you tried safe mode?
[01:06] <hsa2> _pirinto__: Yes... Same result.
[01:07] <_pirinto__> hsa2: what kind of videocard do you have?
[01:07] <calin> hi, any idea how I can connect to the Internet using Crossover? I am trying to do it with Microsoft Outlook but there is no package exchange happening
[01:07] <hsa2> _pirinto__: ATI rage mobility agp 2x
[01:07] <cge> hsa2: That should be supported.
[01:07] <christoph> hi?
[01:07] <cge> hsa2: What exactly is wrong - X won't come up at all, or it is only the wrong resolution?
[01:08] <_pirinto__> hsa2: yeah, as cge said, it  should be supported
[01:08] <hsa2> cge: X works well.
[01:08] <christoph> got a questin : icm quite new here and after installung ubuntu with gnome i changed to kde but now iam missing the programm manager and the update manager... is there any way to install them again?
[01:09] <hsa2> cge: Resolution is problem.
[01:09] <hsa2> I couldn't see all of window.
[01:09] <hsa2> So I cannot click next button.
[01:09] <cge> hsa2: Ah. Then you just need to add it to the list of resolutions in /etc/xorg.conf, I think
[01:09] <hsa2> cge: In live cd?
[01:10] <cge> hsa2: yes
[01:10] <cge> hsa2: You can do that and then restart X
[01:10] <LOLZebra> sup
[01:10] <hsa2> cge: Live cd isn't rw?
[01:11] <cge> hsa2: It is rw.
[01:11] <hsa2> cge: My cd isn't rw :)
[01:11] <ziroday> hsa2: no you have to change it everytime
[01:11] <inflex> does ubuntu's default initrd/etc come with all SATA drivers?
[01:11] <cge> hsa2: It uses transparent compression with a ramdisk.
[01:11] <ziroday> hsa2: the live cd is in loaded on the ram which is rw
[01:11] <Sergo> age:
[01:11] <cge> hsa2: You can modify files, but they go back the default when you reboot
[01:11] <lsproc> christoph: your update and package manager is now Adept
[01:11] <inflex> seems for some reason when I try to boot via GRUB to a kernel on a SATA drive it doesn't get beyond the root mount
[01:11] <Sergo> cge: now it's works
[01:11] <Sergo> cge: i have  done umount /dev/cdrw
[01:12] <cge> Sergo: That would explain it, yes.
[01:12] <hsa2> cge: Wait.. What must I do can you tell again?
[01:12] <Sergo> ) wodim twith linux is a big sucks
[01:12] <Sergo> :)
[01:12] <hsa2> I will edit xorg.conf
[01:12] <cge> Sergo: What software were you trying to use?
[01:12] <LOLZebra> good
[01:12] <Sergo> cge: gnomebaker
[01:12] <hsa2> cge: But it doesn't go default when I reboot?
[01:12] <cge> hsa2: Edit xorg.conf, and add the resolution to the list of resolutions (probably for 24 bit); then restart X with Ctrl-Alt-Backspace.
[01:13] <cge> hsa2: You don't need to reboot
[01:13] <ziroday> hsa2: if you are using the live cd all your changes will be lost on restart
[01:13] <hsa2> cge, ziroday: Thank's
[01:13] <hsa2> I will try again!
[01:13] <cge> hsa2: You're quite welcome. I hope it works.
[01:13] <hsa2> cge: I hope so :)
[01:14] <cge> hsa2: And remember to add the right resolution. I spent a half an hour trying to figure out why my resolution wasn't fixed in the livecd, until I realised I had put in the wrong resolution
[01:14] <hsa2> cge: 1024 x 768 ?
[01:15] <hsa2> cge: This is best resolution of my videocard.
[01:15] <cge> hsa2: Then yes
[01:15] <hsa2> cge: Thank's..
[01:16] <ziroday> #ubuntu has the most people currently on freenode beating #gentoo and #debian. ubuntu rules

[01:22] <jrib> ward_: with dos2unix apparently
[01:22] <erUSUL> ward_: if you have the deb-src sources use apt-get source package
[01:22] <tinh> ziroday, oh really?
[01:23] <ziroday> tinh: yeah
[01:23] <ward_> jrib, ah yeah i remember now :-)

[01:24] <Sergo> :)
[01:24] <mo0osah> is anyone else having issues with making virtualbox fullscreen?
[01:24] <spikeb> ziroday: i have no idea, honestly. like em both. as well as ubuntu.
[01:24] <ziroday> spikeb: what stiked you as the main difference between ubuntu and debian?
[01:24] <ward_> erUSUL, lol i dunno what deb-src sources are
[01:24] <garette> hello all, how to degrade from feasty to edgy back, please gimme the command :), that would be helpful,
[01:24] <tinh> ziroday, actually Ubuntu is very good
[01:25] <ward_> jrib, erUSUL , where will it put the wources?
[01:25] <ward_> sources
[01:25] <spikeb> ziroday: release cycle and package quality.
[01:25] <stefg> garette: not possible
[01:25] <CheshireViking> !downgrade | garette
[01:25] <tinh> ziroday, but fedora seems to support virtualization better
[01:25] <ubotu> garette: Attempting to downgrade to an older Ubuntu version is explicitly not supported, and may break your system.
[01:25] <ziroday> spikeb: hmm
[01:25] <tinh> ziroday, that's why I choose fedora
[01:26] <garette> ok, thanks saved me from a break up :)
[01:26] <erUSUL> ward_: in /etc/apt/sources.list lines begining with deb-src
[01:26] <ziroday> tinh: well i still havnt  worked out virtualization (dont have a windoze disc :p) and i feel its gonna be too slow on my comp
[01:26] <ward_> erUSUL, you mean i don't have just the directory on my system :s:s:s
[01:26] <ward_> ?
[01:27] <ward_> i really just need the directory with the source
[01:27] <Sergo> why the the CD-RW is not un-mounted automated when i eject the cD ?
[01:27] <tinh> ziroday, well I mean virtualization with another Linux machine, not just the WIndoz :)
[01:27] <Sergo> i really start to hate linux
[01:27] <ward_> erUSUL, that was your answer to the question where it puts the sources right?
[01:28] <maeth> im using ubuntu, and im trying to mount a SATA Raid set... it already detected it... the problem is , when im trying to open it (mount it) it ask me for a password, and its not my linux admin password... so.. im clueless
[01:28] <stefg> Sergo: might i suggest to read the guide on asking questions on IRC mentioned in /topic ?
[01:28] <maeth> any ideas?
[01:28] <jrib> ward_: if you didn't get an error, it will be in the current working directory
[01:29] <ward_> jrib, i didn't got a error and its not in the current dir :(
[01:29] <Sergo> please make the ubuntu with money
[01:29] <ward_> :o
[01:29] <ward_> wrong dir
[01:29] <Sergo> becouse it's free and not granted
[01:29] <Sergo> and work very poor
[01:29] <ward_> jrib, thanx i see it now :-) accidentally was in wrong dir
[01:30] <maeth> i would really apreciate to get that RAID set up and runing
[01:30] <maeth> got like 300 gb full
[01:30] <stefg> !support | Sergo
[01:30] <ubotu> Sergo: support is The official ubuntu support channel is #ubuntu. Also see http://ubuntu.com/support and http://ubuntuforums.org
[01:30] <stefg> Sergo you can buy support from Canonical, see the link above
[01:31] <Sergo> i need to buy support becouse the system work with bugs
[01:31] <Sergo> nice idea
[01:31] <maeth> any ideas about the RAID set?, plz
[01:31] <thomax__> anyone had experience with Chipset Atheros AR2413A-001
[01:31] <thomax__> ??
[01:31] <maeth> ^^
[01:32] <stefg> !raid | maeth , read this already
[01:32] <ubotu> maeth , read this already: Raid and LVM --> very easy guide for alternate CD : http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html Tips and tricks for RAID and LVM can be found on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RaidConfigurationHowto and http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/LVM-HOWTO
[01:33] <juan278> if i mount a truecrypt partion as my home then try and login i get errors, because files arnt there, is there anyway to get ubuntu to make these files if theyre missing
[01:34] <maeth> stefg, no no , the raid is working, i know, it detected everything, the filesystem type, the size, etc...
[01:34] <maeth> stefg, the thing is , when im trying to mount it, it ask me for a password
[01:34] <maeth> stefg, wich is not my linux user password :S
[01:35] <s-toned> Problem: scrolling-down is fine, scrolling-up simulates mouse-clicks. xev shows one "ButtonPress Button2" event and one "ButtonPress Button3" event only in the beginning of scrolling-up. What can I do?
[01:35] <CheshireViking> maeth, is the raid physically  attached to your linux machine or is it one a another server that you're connecting to via a network?
[01:36] <wjr74> Can anyone help with a Google Earth install?
[01:36] <maeth> CheshireViking, physically attached
[01:36] <stefg> maeth:hmmm, i remember vaguely that theres a rarely used feature in the ATA-specification which allows to set passwords on frimware level. Thsi was in a security report about windows, because some virus just locked the drive by that. can it be something loke that?
[01:36] <frederific> wjr74: I'll give it a go :)
[01:36] <gat> join /#ubuntu-ar
[01:37] <CheshireViking> maeth, in that case, what i was thinking is no point in me mentioning, thought it could have been something else
[01:37] <maeth> stefg, on windows i can read it with no problems... so if i must get a pass from there
[01:37] <GH> hey
[01:37] <maeth> CheshireViking, k, thanks anyways
[01:37] <NoiZe> Hello, is gnomebaker supported by ubuntu?
[01:37] <frederific> wjr74: what's the problem?
[01:38] <GH> i cannot choose to force a previous version of beryl, any reason its greyed out, i need v 2.0.0
[01:38] <MediaAtTech> NoiZe, it's meant to be, but i've had problems with it with my cd/dvd rom
[01:38] <stefg> maeth: see man mdadm if there's a password protection option in mdadm (must be stored on the superblock then)
[01:38] <ward_> NoiZe, i don't know but i see its in synaptic so it probably sohuld work
[01:38] <Hate-opensource> MediaAtTech me too
[01:38] <Hate-opensource> it's really sucks
[01:38] <Hate-opensource> i lost a lot of time
[01:39] <ward_> NoiZe changed nicks... into something retarded
[01:39] <wjr74> I get device error 167
[01:39] <maeth> stefg, k
[01:39] <ward_> that's better :-)
[01:39] <frederific> wjr74: at what point of the install?
[01:39] <wjr74> at the end
[01:39] <Love-opensource> i'm soo bored
[01:39] <Love-opensource> :(
[01:40] <ward_> Love-opensource, ffs keep your nickname, gnomebaker = in synaptic, it sohuld work
[01:40] <MediaAtTech> it's ok Love-opensource at least we're your friends
[01:40] <maeth> the raid controller is ULI
[01:40] <maeth> just in case
[01:40] <ward_> lol MediaAtTech
[01:40] <frederific> wjr74: :( sorry, no idea (I thought it would be a simple problem)
[01:41] <wjr74> ok
[01:41] <Love-opensource> i:((
[01:41] <MediaAtTech> :x
[01:41] <MediaAtTech> i think ur cute Love-opensource
[01:41] <Love-opensource> ubuntu SUCKS
[01:42] <ward_> Love-opensource, tell us wtf your problem is and maybe we'll help u
[01:42] <phanto1> I need assistance manualy mounting ntfs. Could I post someware my     sudo fdisk -l    and    gksudo gedit /etc/fstab    ?
[01:42] <ward_> (if you're very lucky with that attitude)
[01:42] <ward_> what a retard
[01:43] <MediaAtTech> ward_, i think Love-opensource is new to the gnu
[01:43] <kbrooks> !language > ward_
[01:43] <kbrooks> ward_: please dont swear. thanks
[01:43] <wjr74> Does anyone know why Ubuntu will not connect to open networks that windows will connect to
[01:43] <MediaAtTech> check out add/remove in applications menu love-opensource
[01:44] <kbrooks> ward_: "wtf" is interpreted as swearing here. "retard" is insulting.
[01:44] <kbrooks> so
[01:44] <kbrooks> is Ubuntu a OS replacement?
[01:44] <ward_> kbrooks, but whatever Love-opensource says is ok apperantly, he didn't get any comment
[01:44] <phanto1> I need assistance manualy mounting ntfs. Could I post someware my     sudo fdisk -l    and    gksudo gedit /etc/fstab    ?
[01:44] <ward_> kbrooks, ubuntu is a linux distro, so it IS a OS
[01:45] <kbrooks> ward_: I didn't ask whether Ubuntu was a OS
[01:45] <ward_> if you know that ubuntu is a OS then u now it can replace a OS
[01:46] <kbrooks> ward_: I asked whether Ubuntu was a __OS **replacement**__, as listed on http://www.frozentech.com/content/livecd.php
[01:46] <ward_> MediaAtTech, lol ?
[01:46] <ward_> kbrooks, you mean "is aubuntu a live bootcd ?"
[01:46] <ward_> ?
[01:46] <kbrooks> ward_: just because i know X is Y doesn't mean X can replace Z
[01:46] <kbrooks> ward_: no
[01:46] <kbrooks> ward_: *sigh*
[01:47] <ward_> kbrooks, sorry that i tried to help you, i won't try anymore
[01:47] <kbrooks> ward_: I know that Ubuntu is a livecd
[01:47] <stefg> maeth: skimming through the mdadm-docu ther's no option in mdadm to set passwords for an array. so this must either come from some hardware (disks or controller) or it is indeed a prompt for root-privs
[01:47] <ward_> kbrooks, never mind, sorry i tried to help you
[01:47] <ward_> i don't care
[01:47] <kbrooks> uhh...
[01:47] <kbrooks> ok
[01:48] <kbrooks> so, everyone else, is Ubuntu a OS replacement as listed on http://www.frozentech.com/content/livecd.php ?
[01:48] <kbrooks> MediaAtTech: why stab ward_ ?
[01:48] <fxfitz> I just installed Xgl and compiz, and now with my new Xgl session I do not have the Restart or Shutdown options in my logout button anymore. Can anyone help?
[01:48] <Limite1> how can i update gaim to pidgin??
[01:48] <MediaAtTech> it's was personal
[01:49] <kbrooks> MediaAtTech: you know him?
[01:49] <MediaAtTech> seen the nick b4
[01:49] <frederific> kbrooks: as I understand it, its listed as "OS replacement" on that LiveCD list as it can be installed/replace an existing OS, as opposed to a pure LiveCD

[01:53] <Kalisto> I have been advised that a bug im getting is because "pam_mount *needs* the root privileges, but Ubuntu's PAM configuration decided to throw them away after the login sequence completed" where can i view/change this configuration? /etc/pam.d/session or login? i also added a security bug report: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpam-mount/+bug/117736

[01:58] <jorisslob> I have just upgraded my computer with a new motherboard and dual processors. Let me first say, Ubuntu is great, it just started up like nothing had changed. But I would like to use the second processor if possible. Doing a normal update manager didn't help. Can someone point me towards a guide?
[01:58] <KomiaPoika> how do i make sure video and audio streams pass thru for a particular squid group?
[01:58] <ward_> brk3, yep
[01:58] <sambiase> does anyone here suecceded in installing Joost under Linux?
[01:59] <brk3> ward_: cool will try that. funny it only started happening last night though not sure if maybe someone was messing with the router?

[02:03] <hsa2> Hello again.
[02:03] <Conhe> brk3 lol
[02:03] <hsa2> Did you remember me?
[02:03] <digitalspaghetti> hi, i urgently need to open a .sitx file from a Mac, I can see Ubuntu knows what it is but won't open it
[02:03] <Gabrie1> i have a problem with the fax-modem board
[02:04] <ward_> kindof got nerves, that guy :-)
[02:04] <ward_> enter a opensource irc channel and ask them to help u download warez
[02:04] <hsa2> I couldn't change screen resoulution on live cd.
[02:04] <fluidite> join #equipe-services
[02:05] <Gabrie1> i have an intel fax-modem board and i can't install it..
[02:05] <kitche> phanto1: you need each partition that you want mounted on boot put in your /etc/fstab/ it doesn't automate booting by itself you have to add entries to /etc/fstab/ for each partition
[02:05] <dromer> hi all, I'm trying to install vmware using this guide: http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_fawn_vmware_server_howto  atm I'm nearing the end at this: What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel? [/usr/src/linux/include]   except: The path "/usr/src/linux/include" is not an existing directory.  so what path do I need for this?
[02:05] <stefg> !modem | Gabrie1
[02:05] <ubotu> Gabrie1: You want to connect via dial-up? Read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DialupModemHowto
[02:05] <Gabrie1> i read it..
[02:05] <hsa2> I need help! Please help me about changing resolution.
[02:05] <Frogzoo> !vmware | dromer: definitely the wrong guide
[02:05] <ubotu> dromer: definitely the wrong guide: VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[02:05] <dromer> Frogzoo: ouch :$
[02:06] <hsa2> I couldn't install Ubuntu. Because I cannot see next button on install..
[02:06] <dromer> Frogzoo: is there a way to undoo what I installed?
[02:06] <ward_> does anyone feel like trying to compile gephex? i tried everything
[02:06] <stefg> dromer you need to install the linux-source with apt-get and unpack it after, then symlink teh unpacked dir to /usr/src/linux
[02:06] <hsa2> How can I change screen resolution.
[02:06] <Gabrie1> but i can't make install
[02:07] <Frogzoo> dromer: I wouldn't be too concerned, the proper install will overwrite what's there - probably try to reverse what you've already done though
[02:07] <ward_> Gabrie1, what error do u get?
[02:07] <stefg> !build | Gabrie1
[02:07] <ubotu> Gabrie1: 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!)
[02:07] <hsa2> Anyone help me?
[02:08] <phanto1> kitche: It sez that I shood replase it with this   ro,auto,user,fmask=0111,dmask=0000  . But mine locks lice this   defaults,nls=utf8,umask=007,gid=46 0  dont I have to mach the numbers or just replace.
[02:08] <ward_> does anyone (preferably with building experience) feel like trying to compile gephex? i tried everything
[02:08] <MediaAtTech> what distro u using hsa2?
[02:08] <hsa2> MediaAtTech: Now I 'm on Ubuntu live.
[02:08] <MediaAtTech> feisty?
[02:09] <hsa2> MediaAtTech: Hmm.. I think yes. But not sure.
[02:09] <jorisslob> hsa2: Do you have System>Preferences>Screen Resolution in your menu?
[02:09] <kitche> phanto1: umm follow the guide that ubuntu has
[02:09] <frandavid100> hiya
[02:09] <MediaAtTech> it's in the control panel
[02:09] <frandavid100> can you give me a hand?
[02:09] <CheshireViking> !ask | frandavid100
[02:09] <ubotu> frandavid100: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:09] <hsa2> jorisslob: There is 800x600.. I need 1024x768
[02:09] <frandavid100> I'm tring to compile gendesign but I get: configure: error: No gecko found; you may need to adjust PKG_CONFIG_PATH or install a mozilla/firefox/xulrunner -devel package

[02:10] <frandavid100> but there is no xulrunner-dev in the repos
[02:10] <kitche> frandavid100: it tells you what to do you need xulrunner-dev
[02:10] <frandavid100> yep
[02:10] <kitche> frandavid100: or gecko-dev
[02:10] <frandavid100> ok that might work
[02:10] <ward_> Gabrie1, u need to do sudo make install (allways)
[02:10] <jorisslob> hsa2: Ah, then it is probably a restricted driver problem. I'm not sure how that works with the Live CD
[02:10] <hsa2> jorisslob: There is 1024x768 resolution at my xorg.conf but not in list.
[02:10] <ward_> sudo makes you do things as root
[02:11] <frandavid100> kitche: there is no xulrunner-dev or gecko-dev in the repos
[02:11] <ward_> Gabrie1, (sudo in front makes u do it as root)
[02:11] <Gabrie1> but i am logging as root
[02:11] <ward_> :-O
[02:11] <MediaAtTech> ward_, no sudo makes you do things as super user
[02:11] <BeepAU> i'm using an external soundcard, i get sound out of movie player, but not amarok. can anyone help me?
[02:11] <ward_> MediaAtTech, whatever :-)
[02:11] <jorisslob> hsa2: I'm afraid I am not really much of an expert either. I'm now going to see if I can get my dual processor recognized...
[02:12] <MediaAtTech> yeh
[02:12] <ward_> does anyone (preferably with building experience) feel like trying to compile gephex? i tried everything
[02:12] <jorisslob> hsa2: So I have to reboot... good luck, I hope someone can help you better, although it might be difficult on a Live CD
[02:12] <MediaAtTech> there IS a difference
[02:12] <Gabrie1> same error
[02:12] <hsa2> This is my xorg.conf http://rafb.net/p/cCnl7E46.html
[02:12] <MediaAtTech> much more secure for one.
[02:12] <kitche> frandavid100: looks liek you just need xulrunner
[02:12] <askand> Can someone help me write a request for gutsy?
[02:12] <ward_> MediaAtTech, i know there's a difference, but its easyer to explain this way
[02:13] <frandavid100> nope, that one is installed I think.
[02:13] <frandavid100> gonna try firefox-dev
[02:13] <hsa2> MediaAtTech: Don't you have any suggestion about my problem.
[02:13] <kitche> frandavid100: that might work but seems odd that there is a xulrunner package and no -dev package
[02:13] <Gabrie1> FATAL: Error inserting Intel537 (/lib/modules/2.6.17-10-generic/kernel/drivers/char/Intel537.ko): Operation not permitted

[02:13] <frandavid100> kitche: it's odd alright
[02:14] <MediaAtTech> there is no way for you to set the resolution that high without messing with X-server config files.
[02:14] <kitche> Gabrie1: just means the modprobe is not being ran with sudo powers
[02:14] <frandavid100> seems that firefox-dev did the trick
[02:14] <mx-zoom> BeepAU: try to change the sound device in amarok
[02:14] <frandavid100> thanks man
[02:15] <breadfish> heyo..i need a little help with an external sound card....
[02:15] <roxlu> Hi everyone!
[02:15] <razone> Hi.
[02:15] <breadfish> i know i need to make a file something like /dev/asound.conf, but the contents escape me
[02:16] <roxlu> What is the preferred way to run another OS like windows from within Ubuntu? QEmu or VMWare?
[02:16] <Gabrie1> what is modprobe?!
[02:16] <razone> VMware
[02:16] <SlimeyPete> Gabrie1: it loads kernel modules.
[02:16] <roxlu> razone: Okay thanks
[02:17] <razone> It;s OK.
[02:17] <FritzFantom> hi@all
[02:17] <dromer> Frogzoo: with the vmware-player install I also get the promt to give the path of C header files. the default does not work, which path do I need?
[02:17] <ScarFreewill> !info libclamav1
[02:17] <ubotu> Package libclamav1 does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:17] <roxlu> SlimeyPete: and is that 'fast' ?
[02:17] <razone> i think the vmware-server was more stable than vbox.
[02:17] <Frogzoo> dromer: the default should work, you need to first install 'build-essential'
[02:18] <ehull> Hi all
[02:18] <SlimeyPete> roxlu: pretty fast, yeah. VMWare is faster but I've not managed to get it to run yet.
[02:18] <razone> wait
[02:19] <dromer> Frogzoo: I have that installed
[02:19] <ward_> does anyone (preferably with building experience) feel like trying to compile gephex? i tried everything
[02:19] <BeepAU> mx-zoom - in the engine section?
[02:20] <Frogzoo> dromer: it should just pick up the default
[02:20] <melon> anybody know some tips (or links) for setting up a belkin wireless router in ubuntu? i just get dead ends..
[02:20] <razone> add this "deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu feisty-commercial main
[02:20] <razone> " into source.list
[02:20] <ward_> melon, should just work standard, what's the problem?
[02:21] <ehull> I'm trying to make use of fmipv6, which depends on mipl2. mipl2 includes a kernel patch for kernel 2.6.16. I'm having trouble convincing 2.6.16 to boot.
[02:21] <ward_> melon, i happen to have a belkin myself
[02:21] <melon> hmm.. it doesn't seem to work at all
[02:21] <ward_> melon, wired / wireless?
[02:21] <melon> wireless
[02:21] <sdf> now i try to install my account in thunder bird and i choose imap server thenit want the names of income and outcome server how can i know that??
[02:21] <earnestearnest> google.com
[02:21] <blackest> anyone got vmware running on feisty with windows on a physical disk
[02:22] <melon> perhaps i should try again.. then return if things still aren't working right
[02:22] <Orbitize> Hi, my wireless doesnt want to connect, altho I can find the network and get SSID. Tried in 6.10 and 7.04, even openSUSE, no luck. Anyone know whats wrong?
[02:22] <ward_> melon, if ubuntu finds your card there's a icon on the top right of your screen
[02:22] <ward_> melon, if its there and u clock it u should see a list of the available networks
[02:22] <sdf> please any one help??
[02:22] <razone> i need help,who can print the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf-custom here,i need it. thank you.
[02:22] <blackest> um perhaps i should rephrase that i'm trying to use vmware to boot my windows partition on a physical disk
[02:23] <ward_> melon you could do that
[02:23] <danub> hello all... i just setup proftpd but i set it up as enetd or whatever the other option was (the super-server one)... how do i restart it so my proftpd.conf changes will take effect?
[02:23] <dromer> Frogzoo: wel it doesn't
[02:23] <melon> cheers for your help guys.. i'll probably return.. whether it works or not to let u know (i haven't actually tried it for a few days - so maybe something wasn't plugged in right)
[02:23] <ward_> melon, its also important u pick the right incription, and if its hex or not, etc
[02:24] <melon> ok..
[02:24] <blackest> Orbitize try making your wap open no wpa or wep and see if you can connect (you don't need to leave it open this is testing)
[02:24] <melon> pretend i'm slow.. i should just hook it up 'n reboot?
[02:24] <sdf> why do no one want help me?
[02:24] <dromer> can someone help me configure vmware-player?
[02:24] <aMMuNix> how do I delete a folder in /mnt/?
[02:24] <Orbitize> I cannot, it is a common wlan shared by many people, I do not have access to change it
[02:24] <danub> sdf what is ur issue?
[02:24] <jburd> VLC media player 0.8.6 Janus X Error of failed request:  BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)  Major opcode of failed request:  141 (XVideo)
[02:25] <jburd> When does one get that?
[02:25] <berent> aMMuNix : rm -rf /mnt/*
[02:25] <jburd> I'm trying to play a video file.
[02:25] <aMMuNix> thanks berent
[02:25] <AfterDeath> aMMuNix: sudo umount /mnt/folder_you_want_to_unmount; sudo rmdir /mnt/folder_you_want_to_unmount
[02:25] <SlimeyPete> sdf: you have to ask your ISP for the server names
[02:25] <ward_> melon, how do u mean hook it up? your wireless card?
[02:25] <SlimeyPete> sdf: they should have a page on their website
[02:25] <AfterDeath> also, rm -rf /mnt/* is a bad idea :/
[02:25] <sdf> danub  i use ubuntu feisty 7.04
[02:25] <blackest> hmm do you know which encription is used wpa or wep ?
[02:25] <aMMuNix> why is that?
[02:25] <danub> yeah...
[02:25] <Orbitize> WEP
[02:25] <danub> most people in here do...
[02:25] <AfterDeath> aMMuNix: rm -rf /mnt/* will remove *all* folders in /mnt
[02:25] <danub> what is the problem you are experiencing?
[02:25] <bhavik> Hello
[02:25] <sdf> slimeypete how can i know?
[02:25] <PriceChild> dAndy, You'd be surprised ;)
[02:26] <Orbitize> WEP 128 bit
[02:26] <melon> ok - i have my adsl modem.. then the router.. then a usb network adapter
[02:26] <PriceChild> whoops danub ^
[02:26] <jburd> I was trying to create screencasts using Istanbul.  however, I cannot play the videos it creates.
[02:26] <SlimeyPete> sdf: ask your ISP. Visit their website.
[02:26] <bhavik> I was wondering what program supports .sfv checking?
[02:26] <Orbitize> I cannot connect to the network, altho it can find it
[02:26] <SlimeyPete> sdf: there is no way for you to find out without asking them
[02:26] <aMMuNix> ah cause of the *, I was about to replace that * anyway :P
[02:26] <jburd> Is there a way to resize .ogg videos encoded with libtheora?
[02:26] <danub> PriceChild: well... yeah i suppose i would be surprized... some people just dont like change
[02:26] <melon> i just bought a townhouse thingie - and we don't have adsl connection upstairs.. so i'm setting up the modem 'n router downstairs.. 'n the pc upstairs..
[02:26] <ward_> melon, i have no experience with USB adapters, its possible ubuntu doesnt detect it (not every card / usb card is suported)
[02:26] <blackest> orbitize I think you need to google which net manager to use for wep i think there are two and only one will be successful
[02:26] <danub> :)
[02:26] <Orbitize> I have performed countless clean reinstalls, different versions, even different distros, but it wont connect
[02:26] <sdf> slimemypete ask who??
[02:27] <ward_> melon, what u could try first is boot your computer with the USB card allready plugged in
[02:27] <bhavik> I was wondering what program supports .sfv checking?
[02:27] <PriceChild> danub, To large groups of people change is always bad.
[02:27] <sdf> slimeypete them=??
[02:27] <melon> cool - so i'll try to set it up wired first..
[02:27] <Chillyboarder> w00t
[02:27] <danub> yeah... i dont get that though... they are already using linux :)
[02:27] <Chillyboarder> gaim ftw
[02:27] <SlimeyPete> sdf: your ISP. Your Internet Provider.
[02:27] <SlimeyPete> sdf: the people who provide your email
[02:27] <melon> bbs
[02:27] <ward_> melon, u can do that too, wired everything sohuld work out of the box
[02:27] <sdf> oh
[02:27] <melon> thanks btw - just in case i break something :)
[02:27] <danub> SlimeyPete: what is sdf's issue since he cant answer the question
[02:27] <blackest> Orbitz can you connect to a different network ?
[02:27] <ward_> does anyone (preferably with building experience) feel like trying to compile gephex? i tried everything
[02:27] <sdf> slimeypete i take part in lan
[02:28] <ward_> melon, no problem
[02:28] <bhavik> I was wondering what program supports .sfv checking?
[02:28] <Orbitize> I have not tried, but I dont think so, there are no other networks available
[02:28] <SlimeyPete> danub: he wants to know what values to put in the server config dialog in Thunderbird
[02:28] <Orbitize> Here is my card: GN-WPKG ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/HardwareSupportComponentsWirelessNetworkCardsGigabyteTechnology )
[02:29] <SlimeyPete> sdf: then you need to ask your Network Administrator, if you are at a company or a university/college
[02:29] <danub> ahh
[02:29] <danub> sdf, what is the wesite you go to to get the email?
[02:29] <Orbitize> do you know what FSF is?
[02:29] <sdf> danub yahoo.com
[02:30] <danub> you cant set it up
[02:30] <danub> unles you pay for the yahoo expanded version
[02:30] <sdf> why?
[02:30] <bhavik> I was wondering what program supports .sfv checking?
[02:30] <CheshireViking> bhavik, have a look for cksfv in synaptic
[02:30] <Chillyboarder> anyone know why I can't download any applications from add/remove applications? getting some error for each one.
[02:30] <bhavik> no
[02:30] <bhavik> ty
[02:30] <blackest> I would see if a friend has a wireless network and see if you can setup with that one,  - for example my wap looks open but it isn't its mac address filtered unless you know how the routers setup you are going to be stuck however asking the obvious will windows connnect with the same wireless card ?
[02:30] <ehull> I'm trying to make use of fmipv6, which depends on mipl2. mipl2 includes a kernel patch for kernel 2.6.16. I'm having trouble convincing 2.6.16 to boot.
[02:31] <danub> because they want you using thier software... not outlook/thunderbird. you have to pay to get the address info and a slot on their server
[02:31] <sdf> danub what about  msn messenger"hotamil.com"??
[02:31] <danub> msn works
[02:31] <sdf> danub thank you
[02:31] <danub> np
[02:31] <sdf> slimeypete thank you vey much
[02:32] <SlimeyPete> sdf: no problem
[02:32] <Orbitize> so any idea what I should do, danub?
[02:33] <MediaAtTech> lol
[02:33] <MediaAtTech> reinstall Orbitize
[02:33] <Orbitize> it's been tried on countless reinstalls, MediaAtTech, it's practically clean
[02:33] <Orbitize> installed this morning
[02:34] <DarthShrine> The file /sbin/tuncfg exists, yet when I try `sudo tuncfg`, I get 'sudo: unable to execute /sbin/tuncfg: No such file or directory'. What's happening?
[02:34] <ward_> does anyone (preferably with building experience) feel like trying to compile gephex? i tried everything
[02:34] <MediaAtTech> anyone here familiar with mono?
[02:35] <MediaAtTech> ie .Net ?
[02:35] <frandavid100> Hi, I'm trying to compile gendesign but I get this when I type make: http://pastebin.ca/522440
[02:35] <frandavid100> can you give me a hand?
[02:35] <cylent77> i donwloaded obuntu last night but theres no setup.exe file what do i do
[02:36] <CheshireViking> cylent77, you need to insert the cd into your computer and reboot, the live cd should then start up giving you options to install
[02:36] <SlimeyPete> cylent77: you burn the ISO to a CD, and then put the CD into your computer and reboot.
[02:36] <bhavik> CheshireViking, This is my first time installing a program through synaptic, is cksfv a command line or was it placed in another location
[02:36] <CheshireViking> !install | cylent77
[02:36] <ubotu> cylent77: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[02:36] <cylent77> i dont have cd maker in my computer i have floppie ok?
[02:37] <cylent77> pleaes hepl how i triye this ubuntu thing my friend said i  become cool
[02:37] <ward_> cylent77, that won't do
[02:37] <CheshireViking> bhavik, if you open synaptic, use the search button to find cksfv, tick the box and press apply, that will download it and install it for you
[02:37] <ward_> cylent77, u could ask one of your friends to make u a CD, or alternatively, order a free CD :-)
[02:37] <bhavik> I installed it, but where do I find it?
[02:38] <ward_> cylent77, but i can advise u to first educate yourself a bit, before trying to install ubuntu
[02:38] <danub> who has a proftp server running? I need to know why it is telling me "illegal port command" when i do anything but a cd or pwd
[02:38] <cylent77> ward_: i give you my home address and phone #? plaese u send yes?
[02:38] <ward_> cylent77, that's not possible
[02:38] <ward_> cylent77, but there is a webbpage where u can order them
[02:38] <ward_> cylent77, i'll look up the link for you :-)
[02:39] <cylent77> how much do i need to pay you for helping me?
[02:39] <cylent77> i dont have alot of money
[02:39] <danub> 100,000,000 dollars!!! muahahaha
[02:39] <jburd> cylent77, https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
[02:39] <jburd> cylent77, Ubuntu can shipt it to you for free.  You don't pay anything.
[02:39] <ward_> cylent77, https://shipit.ubuntu.com/
[02:39] <ward_> its FREE to order a cd, cylent77
[02:39] <bhavik> CheshireViking, I installed it, but where do I find it?
[02:39] <cylent77> wow ubuntu is nice people
[02:39] <danub> the only catch
[02:39] <danub> tit takes 4-6 weeks to get the cd
[02:40] <CheshireViking> bhavik, hold on, i'm just looking now, it looks like its a command line application, give me a minute
[02:40] <ward_> cylent77, it takes a while
[02:40] <bhavik> ok
[02:40] <cylent77> i wonder if ubuntu is son of devil?
[02:40] <ward_> cylent77, in the meantime you can aducate yourself a bit on ubuntu

[02:40] <ehull> sorry to bother you, is it possible to use kernel 2.6.16 on ubuntu 7.04 or will I need an older version of ubuntu (if so, which ver?)

[02:41] <CheshireViking> bhavik, there's a quick how to use here, http://www.fodder.org/cksfv/README, looks like you type "cksfv -f filename.sfv" assuming you're in the same directory that the file is saved

[02:41] <jburd> He's the head freak geek.
[02:41] <cylent77> hes gay?
[02:41] <bhavik> ah ok, thank you very much
[02:41] <spikeb> dude in charge.

[02:43] <danub> AngryElf1: no... but vmware.com has one
[02:43] <phanto1> I followed the ntfs mount manual but still 2 of my partitions aren't mounted. Can somebody please help me? I need them urgently.
[02:43] <MediaAtTech> google is ur friend
[02:44] <lach> ive got 7.04, and it hangs after the 4th installer bar, or when i run ubuntuo from the cd it hangs when it gets to the p[artition section
[02:44] <TinoW> volfied: did you try memtest86+ once?
[02:44] <volfied> TinoW: no, I will try it right now, be back to you in a minute
[02:44] <danub> lach... do you have a dell by chance?
[02:44] <lach> nope
[02:44] <danub> or some other major corp, store bought pos?
[02:45] <AngryElf1> danub: the rpm?
[02:45] <lach> lol nope. made this computer 4 years ago. running a xp2600, nforce 2 chipset, 1 ide and 2 sata hdds (i want to install on the ide which has 35gb free) and 1gb ram
[02:45] <MediaAtTech> lach do you have any usb storage drives hooked in?
[02:45] <danub> well i believe they have more then the rpm... but an rpm works also... .u just need alien installed and build-essential
[02:45] <lach> on, but i do have a usb hub plugged in
[02:45] <CHRIS_----> how do i edit my sources list?
[02:46] <lach> and a usb modem
[02:46] <jburd> CHRIS_----, sudo vim /etc/apt/sources.list
[02:46] <CHRIS_----> thanks mate
[02:46] <danub> ok so u pop in the disk and get to the partitioner and it dies...
[02:46] <phanto1> I followed the ntfs mount manual but still 2 of my partitions aren't mounted. Can somebody please help me? I need them urgently.
[02:47] <jburd> phanto1, which version of Ubuntu are you running?
[02:47] <phanto1> feisty
[02:47] <lach> danub- yeah
[02:47] <jburd> I think mounting NTFS in 7.04 is as easy as installing ntfs-config and running it.
[02:47] <niru> hello all
[02:47] <CyberJack> hi all
[02:47] <niru> We are trying to customize usplash
[02:47] <niru> hello CyberJack
[02:47] <phanto1> jburd:feisty
[02:47] <MediaAtTech> lach, maybe you have a corrupted harddrive then?
[02:47] <Muz`> how can i let superkaramba startup automatic
[02:47] <Muz`> on reboot
[02:47] <danub> this sounds caguely familiar
[02:48] <danub> vaguely
[02:48] <CyberJack> I have a question... does linux have a memory limit (like windows)?
[02:48] <jburd>  @ phanto1 (look at the above reply)
[02:48] <niru> But I dont know why it shows black screen
[02:48] <CheshireViking> lach, which is your boot normal boot drive? if its the IDE one, maybe it would be worth disconnecting the two SATA driver & trying to install that way
[02:48] <niru> usplash.c file needs to be edited?
[02:48] <lach> ok
[02:48] <lach> what about the modem
[02:48] <jburd> CyberJack, "memory limit?"
[02:48] <Gorlist> Afternoon
[02:48] <Gorlist> ok slight logic problem here :)
[02:48] <CyberJack> memory limit on the system memory
[02:48] <lach> except when i run ubunto straight from the cd i can access all drives
[02:48] <MediaAtTech> don't mind the modem lach. it wont give you any trouble
[02:48] <lach> do you know what i mean, run ubunto from the cd?
[02:49] <Gorlist> if you open Ubuntus Calculator, type in 2+50%=  - and what do you get??
[02:49] <niru> GodTodd, Gorlist any idea
[02:49] <kane77> what text editor can be used for viewing binary files?
[02:49] <jburd> phanto1, try installing ntfs-config   `sudo apt-get install ntfs-config` after enabling the universe repositories and running `sudo apt-get update`
[02:49] <Gorlist> only just joined channel
[02:49] <digitalspaghetti> Does anyone here know a way to burn a Sound Designer II file in Ubuntu (a .sd2f file)?
[02:49] <Gorlist> you get 2.5 instead of 3 :>
[02:50] <dromer> 1vmware
[02:50] <dromer> 1vmware
[02:50] <dromer> !vmware
[02:50] <Gorlist> must be @new maths@ :)
[02:50] <ubotu> VMWare Player is in Ubuntu's !Multiverse repository (package "vmware-player"), and http://www.easyvmx.com/easyvmx.shtml can create VMs for it. For VMWare Server, instructions can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware - See also !virtualizers
[02:50] <CheshireViking> lach, you said it was having problems at the partitioning part, that sounds like something is conflicting when it wants to partition, so disconnecting the SATA drives may get you past that so you can install and then reconnect the SATA drives
[02:50] <dromer> !vmware-player
[02:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about vmware-player - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:50] <phanto1> jburd: NTFS Configuration Tool I have olready instaled
[02:50] <niru> Gorlist, what is there in 2.5
[02:50] <lach> ok then
[02:50] <lach> ill give it a shot
[02:50] <CyberJack> @jburd, I mean internal system memory limit... like XP it allows a max of 4GB.
[02:50] <danub> just out of curiousity lach, what mobo u got?
[02:50] <jburd> phanto1, have you tried running it and checking both checkboxes?
[02:50] <phanto1>  jburd:  Cood I send you My files
[02:50] <danub> wait... u said it was 4 years old... nevermind
[02:50] <Chillyboarder> Can someone tell me why I can't download applications from "add/remove applications"? Gives me some error each time for any of the programs. Can't update stuff either.
[02:50] <MediaAtTech> check the config files
[02:51] <Gorlist> how do you mean niru?
[02:51] <lach> wish me luck, brb
[02:51] <spheard> Chillyboarder: error msgs?
[02:51] <blackjackel> Is there a website that tells you all about linux processes? For example, I have "Evolution-alarm-notifier" and I want to find out what it is, because if I don't need it, I don't want it starting up automatically....
[02:51] <Chillyboarder> 1sec
[02:51] <Gorlist> if i type in 2 + 50% it should come back with 3
[02:51] <Gorlist> divide 2 by 1 you get 1, so thats 50%
[02:51] <niru> Gorlist, why in 3 is there no option to customize the image
[02:51] <zamboni> hi
[02:51] <Gorlist> niru: slighly confused? :)
[02:52] <niru> Gorlist, u asked to use 2.5 usplash instaed of 3 why?
[02:52] <Hadron> Anyone else here using mplayer to listen internet radio from .ram files streams?
[02:52] <MediaAtTech> check the config files
[02:52] <niru> Gorlist, was that answetr to me or some one else
[02:52] <Gorlist> no that was my own problem heh
[02:52] <frederific> blackjackel: Evolution-alarm-notifier does just that, notifies you of evolution alarms. So if you have a reminder set, but evolution itself isnt running, it will still pop up. If you don't use evolution, you don't need it; I don't know of a website though, sorry :(
[02:52] <zamboni> is it possible to install ubuntu on the second drive hdb and have grub boot from there? and have grub ignore hda?
[02:52] <Gorlist> im trying to figure out why the Ubuntu Caluclator doesn't do maths
[02:52] <niru> Gorlist, oh :)
[02:52] <phanto1>  jburd: When I installed them I check't them and now there weren't . Thanks
[02:53] <blackjackel> frederific, what is evolution?
[02:53] <zamboni> niru is it possible to install ubuntu on the second drive hdb and have grub boot from there? and have grub ignore hda?
[02:53] <frederific> blackjackel: evolution is the default email/calendar/contacts application in Ubuntu (Like Outlook on windows)
[02:53] <jburd> phanto1, welcome.
[02:53] <menisk> Is it normal to have issues running some 32bit programs on an AMD64 build of Ubuntu?
[02:53] <digitalspaghetti> Does anyone here know a way to mount and burn a Sound Designer II file in Ubuntu (a .sd2f file)?
[02:53] <Hadron> zamboni: grub doesnt ignore anything unless you tell it to.
[02:54] <zamboni> how do I do that?
[02:54] <Hadron> grub is a boot loader which lists what it know about.
[02:54] <zamboni> Im a lilo man
[02:54] <Hadron> then google up grub or info grub.
[02:54] <jburd> CyberJack, XP allows a maximum memory limit of 4 GB?
[02:54] <zamboni> yeah during install
[02:54] <jburd> What exactly are you referring to?
[02:54] <zamboni> I used the advanced option
[02:54] <niru> zamboni, I think its possible
[02:54] <MediaAtTech> check the config files
[02:54] <jburd> The maximum addressable memory?
[02:54] <Chillyboarder> spheard: sent in pm
[02:54] <zamboni> and  pointed it at hd1
[02:54] <Hadron> niru: you think what is possibly? You think or you know?
[02:55] <zamboni> but I get the famous file not found error 15 message
[02:55] <stanic> yo
[02:55] <stanic> im new here
[02:55] <zamboni> this is my 5th  wipe/install cycle
[02:55] <jburd> In effect, are you referring to not being able to open a 4GB+ sized file in Notepad?
[02:55] <zamboni> and Im about togo bald
[02:55] <Hadron> zamboni: what is it you want to do.
[02:56] <zamboni> I want to install and boot ubuntu from hdb
[02:56] <zamboni> pass boot control froom the  bios boot menu
[02:56] <zamboni> a la F11 key in my case
[02:56] <CheshireViking> zamboni, is windows on hda and thats why you don't want the installer to touch it?
[02:56] <zamboni> no
[02:56] <zamboni> its slackware
[02:57] <stanic> may i help you?////
[02:57] <zamboni> my sandbox
[02:57] <stanic> what happen?
[02:57] <Hadron> zamboni: but what is the problem with installint grub on hda? Easy. It will automatically see windows too.
[02:57] <zamboni> so a kernel install will kill grub every time anyway
[02:57] <zamboni> so a kernel install will kill grub every time anyway
[02:57] <zamboni> ^^
[02:57] <MediaAtTech> ???????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[02:57] <Vorbote> zamboni: add the ubuntu kernel to lilo
[02:58] <Hadron> zamboni: No. A kernel install will update grub config files. The OS install will install grub.
[02:58] <zamboni> did that and it never completes the boot process
[02:58] <stanic> what version is that?
[02:58] <zamboni> I do not have grub on my slack box
[02:58] <Hadron> zamboni: Make up your mind. LILO or GRUB? Use grub. LILO is history.
[02:58] <zamboni> so Im not uinderstanding something
[02:58] <CheshireViking> zamboni, do you use lilo on the slackware box?
[02:58] <zamboni> not for slack it isnt
[02:59] <zamboni> yes
[02:59] <Hadron> this is a ubuntu group-
[02:59] <zamboni> I know
[02:59] <Hadron> and you said you have windows and  ubuntu? right?
[02:59] <zamboni> but Im trying to get ubuntu to live on its own drive
[02:59] <zamboni> no windows
[02:59] <zamboni> slack hda  ubuntu hdb
[02:59] <zamboni> I want
[03:00] <neildarlow> Hadron, LILO is history? that's flamebait :)
[03:00] <Hadron> zamboni: what do you mean? What did you say about windows then??
[03:00] <noob> how do I play mp3s?
[03:00] <zamboni> I never said a thing about windows

[03:00] <Hadron> zamboni: sorry. someone else did!
[03:00] <zamboni> np
[03:01] <Vorbote> zamboni: It is very easy. Add the ubuntu kernel to lilo. Take advantage of the kernel symlinks in root they are there to facilitate booting from another partition even if the kernel is upgraded.
[03:01] <AngryElf1> has anyone gotten vware server working in Edgy?
[03:01] <AngryElf1> ...it's having trouble building vmmon
[03:01] <mattfletcher> can someone tell me which packages i need to install to get berkely db working? there are so many i can't pick the right one
[03:02] <zamboni> Vorbote Ive tried that and so far the bootprocess hangs after probing  the hardware
[03:02] <MrProper_> is there a replacement package for auditd in ubuntu?
[03:02] <volfied> While installing ubuntu server, it is sufficient only to make the /boot partition bootable, my / and swap dont have to be bootable, right?
[03:02] <demonspork_> How do I test my microphone to see if the mic input is working at all?
[03:02] <spliff> hello. my usb/hotplug subsystem hangs after unplugging my usb headset. i couldn't find a script in /etc/init.d that is responsible for that... how can i fix this without a reboot?
[03:02] <zamboni> why cant I just have it on hdb and let  the f11 hotkey pass control to the bootloader?
[03:02] <Vorbote> zamboni: Have you tried adding bootflags such as noapic nolapic? That sounds like a problem with your BIOS.
[03:02] <AngryElf_> has anyone succesfully gotten vmware server running on Edgy?  I keep getting vmmon module errors...
[03:03] <neildarlow> mattfletcher, libdb4.2, libdb4.3 or libdb4.4 and the -dev versions maybe
[03:03] <kitche> volfied: / needs to be bootable
[03:03] <noob> ubuntu feels nice, hope this feeling lasts :)
[03:03] <_nix_> amen
[03:03] <zamboni> the install runs fine and apic stuff is just dandy with slack and the ;latest  kernel
[03:03] <phanto1> jburd:now they disapeared
[03:03] <zamboni> apci I mean as well as apic
[03:03] <volfied> kitche: can that be the problem for my ubuntu server to not start and freeze after printing the message: Booting the kernel?
[03:03] <avis> i have imported alot of system wide fonts by copying them as root to fonts:/// and they dont appear available to xchat.  they are ttf's.  are only some applications able to use some fonts ?
[03:04] <mattfletcher> neildarlow, thanks it was the dev package that it needed. cheers
[03:04] <CyberJack> @AngryElf_: I'v got VMWare server running under Edgy
[03:04] <_nix_> avis: try, sudo ( cd /usr/share/fonts; mkfontdir )
[03:04] <Vorbote> zamboni: or it may be that the lilo version you have is a bit old/has a bug and doesn't have enough memory space to load up a 2.6 kernel that should be a compile time option; (slackware's default was 2.4 yet afaik...)
[03:04] <kitche> volfied: could be since linux actually looks at / before the other directories
[03:04] <zamboni> no it is current
[03:05] <zamboni> sir
[03:05] <volfied> kitche: Allright, right now I'm doing memtest86+, then I'll try reinstalling with / and /boot as bootable
[03:05] <volfied> thank you
[03:05] <zamboni> Ive been using2.6 since last year
[03:05] <zamboni> never a booti8ng hitch
[03:05] <MrProper_> how can i audit files in ubuntu (ie who modified the files etc)
[03:05] <zamboni> tail -f

[03:06] <spliff> i it possible to restart the usb system? my ubuntu doesn't recognize newly connected usb devices
[03:06] <agn0stic> hey anyone got a good link to an explanation of how to make an installable ubuntu cd from your current installation? (live would be nice too). I know I probably just need to rip the live cd, mount it, chroot, and fiddle away - but i've got to wonder if someone has written a script, or if there's any ubuntu-specific gotchas to watch out for
[03:06] <zamboni> spliff reboot
[03:07] <spliff> i can't
[03:07] <zamboni> and  dont bogart
[03:07] <spliff> not now
[03:07] <zamboni> ;)
[03:07] <dbrewer_rjr> hey, i am new to ubuntu but old to unix. the sudo is driving me crazy. if i sudo -i , it reverts back to administrator after the first command. I need to be root for the duration of my current session.
[03:07] <zamboni> logout and log in?
[03:07] <spliff> good idea
[03:07] <agn0stic> dbrewer_rjr: sudo su
[03:07] <zamboni> let me know
[03:08] <Lo_Pan> sudo -s
[03:08] <spliff> okay, brb
[03:08] <agn0stic> dbrewer: sudo su - if you need it to login like root

[03:08] <_nix_> a single su - would do
[03:09] <mwe> that is the recommended way if you need a root prompt
[03:09] <kitche> _nix_: not really unless you have root unlocked
[03:09] <_nix_> righto
[03:09] <danub> _nix - only if you have root unlocked
[03:09] <agn0stic> i stand corrected
[03:09] <danub> dang it kitche, you beat me to it
[03:09] <AlphaOmega> seriously, i have a linux curse, i can install windows 2k, xp and freebsd all versions on pcs, but for the life of me, i cant install linux on 3 different pcs that install windows and freebsd, i have a frigging linux curse, and they wont install for 3 different reasons!  i used 7.04 alt
[03:09] <danub> lol
[03:09] <dbrewer_rjr> sudo su worked, it did not make me back into administrator after the first bad command. thanks
[03:10] <_nix_> AlphaOmega: gee what happens when you try to install linux?
[03:10] <AlphaOmega> one wont install, it gets to 52% of the way thru the install process and hangs
[03:10] <mwe> agn0stic: sudo su won't hurt, though. I've used it for years on system with sudo that doesn't support the -i switch
[03:10] <AlphaOmega> everytime 52%, same machine
[03:10] <GuysQC38> ubuntu-fr is a very bad frenchy people no help new people ban poeple all the time i think i uninstall linux because all the time i need help ubuntu-fr never help i'm very sorry for me linux iut's very bad

[03:29] <yell1> i have a slight problem, when trying to change themes ( gnome ) i lost all window borders , i dont have desktop effect on ...
[03:29] <sharperguy> grr, I can't resize the NTFS windows partition in order to make room to expand to ubuntu partition :/
[03:29] <spikeb> inflex: the open source driver supports the 9500 and below though
[03:29] <CheshireViking> openlad, time to change your password
[03:29] <sharperguy> *expand _the_ ubuntu partition
[03:29] <yell1> so i dont have borders on gnome, any tips are welcome!
[03:29] <zenmonk> Hey, I am looking for a piece of free software that teaches programming.  does anyone know of any or where else I could look?  I am looking for free software
[03:30] <inflex> spikeb: yeah... and gives me more than unbelievably CRAPPY performance even in simple games like Armegatron
[03:30] <inflex> :(
[03:30] <openlad> CheshireViking how to change????
[03:30] <wols> zenmonk: you don't need software for that
[03:30] <user_> hi
[03:30] <spikeb> hmm
[03:30] <sharperguy> zenmonk: Have you tried kturtle? It depends what you want though
[03:30] <spikeb> when i used the driver on my 9200 it gave decent performance.
[03:30] <user_> how do i tell dosemu to run my program located in ~/program
[03:30] <zenmonk> i am looking for something for someone in elementary school / highschool
[03:30] <inflex> spikeb: in xorg I have 'ati' being used atm
[03:31] <zenmonk> I couldn't remember the name of a program we used at school, I think it was some girl's name
[03:31] <inflex> spikeb: GLX gears in 'default' window gives me 1200fps
[03:31] <spikeb> inflex: i used "radeon"
[03:31] <gordonjcp> zenmonk: kturtle is basically Logo, which is kind of a classic for teaching computing ;-)
[03:31] <spikeb> inflex: no idea if there's a difference.
[03:31] <wols> zenmonk:  "How to Think Like a Computer Scientist: Learning with Python". It's been used for highschool classes before
[03:31] <inflex> spikeb: what GLX gears value do you get
[03:31] <wols> zenmonk: and it's a free ebook (available in dead tree format too)
[03:31] <spikeb> inflex: i dont remember, this was a couple computers back, like a year ago :)
[03:32] <jadarite> What are the hardware requirements to run Ubuntu?

[03:32] <ubotu> ahmed: 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?
[03:32] <openlad> CheshireViking: how to change????
[03:32] <inflex> spikeb: hrmm... how can I even determine if I have the radeon driver located on the system atm
[03:32] <user_> how do i tell dosemu to run my program located in ~/program
[03:32] <ward_> melon, i was away
[03:32] <spikeb> jadarite: 256MB memory, about five gigs hard drive
[03:32] <LadyNikon> lol # an anyone trigger
[03:32] <ward_> melon, what works? the wifi?
[03:33] <zenmonk> no, it wasn't the name of a language, it was the name of some kind of interface that helped you write code somehow.  I don't know how it works, I learned on a text editor.
[03:33] <spikeb> inflex: you can type locate radeon in the terminal and see what it brings up
[03:33] <jadarite> inflex, well, that is true.  I got an old powerpc working.  Now I want to try it on a computer that has Windows.  I don't mind wiping it out, but I think I will need more RAM.
[03:33] <iMax> hi...how can I get the gnome watch to update the time via ntp automatically in certain intervals?

[03:34] <jadarite> If I try to run Wine on ubuntu, will that take up a lot of resources?
[03:34] <zenmonk> I found it it is called Alice. http://www.alice.org/
[03:34] <inflex> /usr/lib/dri/radeon_dri.so
[03:34] <inflex> okay, I'll try that - tx
[03:34] <sharperguy> anyways is there a more reliable partition editor than gparted?
[03:34] <spikeb> jadarite: how much ram does the computer you are thinking about using have? what processor?
[03:34] <zenmonk> Thanks for the note kturtle, I will loook at that
[03:34] <spikeb> inflex: good luck
[03:34] <phanto1> How doo i mount a partition

[03:43] <Wips> sainzeo: Automatix?
[03:43] <sadistic_kitten> how do I create hidden files/folders in either cli or gui
[03:43] <jburd> !automatix | Wips
[03:43] <wols> jadarite: imho 256MB is kinda minimum. 512MB is better
[03:43] <ubotu> Wips: 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
[03:43] <Superstar> Alguem pa me dar uma dica?

[03:43] <jadarite> wols, can I run Wine smoothly with 256?
[03:43] <nbjayme> ahmed, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2706503
[03:43] <lxuser> it is some nvidia card. I had it configured for graphical acceleration but now i switched the driver back to vesa hoping that would fix it
[03:44] <sainzeo> @Wips: Automatix has yet to give me any problems and I have used it quite a few times
[03:44] <Superstar> Ja la fui mas sem sucesso
[03:44] <wols> jadarite: depends on what apps you want to run inside wine and how much ram they need

[03:45] <Semper> blah
[03:45] <Semper> lame
[03:45] <wols> Semper: see that?
[03:45] <sharperguy> woslm you can just use !pt i think
[03:45] <Myrtti> sadistic_kitten: put a . before the filename
[03:45] <wols> Semper: you mean blender most probably
[03:45] <sainzeo> can anyone help me with a WPA issue that I'm having?
[03:45] <CheshireViking> lxuser, have you tried setting the driver to "nv" rather than "vesa"?
[03:45] <sadistic_kitten> I did that in gui and ti did nothing
[03:45] <Semper> automatix bleeder?
[03:45] <lxuser> no, should I?
[03:45] <sadistic_kitten> Myrtti: does that only work in cli?
[03:45] <wols> sharperguy: he's been told about pt sevreal times. he's too ignorant to care
[03:45] <Semper> is it bleeder or blender...
[03:45] <Semper> rofl
[03:45] <wols> lxuser: yes you should if you have a nvidia base card
[03:46] <lxuser> ok, I'll give that a try quickly
[03:46] <Myrtti> sadistic_kitten: nope, you can rename files with . before the filename in the file manager of your choice too
[03:46] <CheshireViking> lxuser, after the last kernel update, mine wouldn't boot using nvidia, i went back to nv & reinstalled the nvidia driver
[03:46] <Conhe> !blacklist
[03:46] <wols> Semper:"bleeder" does not exist. the 3D imaging program you mean is blender. learn what you want to use first. at least its name
[03:46] <ubotu> To blacklist a module, edit /etc/modprobe.d/my_blacklist and add  blacklist <modulename>  to the end of that list - To explicitly load modules in a specific order, list them in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and type  sudo update-initramfs -u 
[03:46] <ward_> melon, u could try searching for your usb adapter on the internet, to see if there's a working driver for your model
[03:46] <Semper> hey wolf. im running a ati x200 any way to get desktop effects working?
[03:46] <Semper> i used envy for the ati install drivers
[03:46] <wols> Semper: X200? I know of X300 but not X200
[03:47] <sadistic_kitten> Myrtti: pft ok it did work i just hadn't refreshed the window
[03:47] <Semper> x200 was integrated
[03:47] <ward_> melon, to search use "modelname ubuntu" or something

[03:47] <Semper> lol x.x
[03:47] <ryugaka> whoever suggested andlinux to me yesterday, i want to shake your hand.
[03:47] <wols> melon: belkin doesn't make WLAN chips. all they make is adapters
[03:47] <wols> melon: and the chip determines the driver you need
[03:47] <melon> yeah - keep going in circles.. which is why i came here.. i've already made more progress in 20 minutes here than i had through google in the past 3 days
[03:48] <c0redamage> hi, i have a problem with gcc and KDevelop C/C++ everytime I'm trying to build a Project he exits with status 2 and can't find aclocal, but I'v installed the build essentials Package.
[03:48] <CheshireViking> !envy > Semper, the ops have changed the definition of envy in the last couple of days, they don't like it being recommended anymore (I use myself for nvidia)
[03:48] <Semper> for using ubuntu 1day i do know quite abit
[03:48] <sainzeo> after the kernel update, i cannot connect to WPA networks anymore - any suggestions?
[03:48] <melon> wols: any suggestions?
[03:48] <ryugaka> what exactly is envy?
[03:48] <Semper> ah ic
[03:48] <ryugaka> !envy
[03:48] <Semper> envy just installs video drivers
[03:48] <wols> melon: sure. what usb module or whatever is it actually?
[03:48] <ryugaka> right
[03:48] <melon> oh wait.. i understand
[03:48] <ubotu> envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[03:48] <ryugaka> :o
[03:48] <Semper> eh.
[03:48] <Semper> depends
[03:49] <Semper> they have stable versons and also unstable

[03:49] <melon> -checks
[03:49] <wols> Semper: lets just say that after 1 day you can't really determine if that fact is right or you are. my money is on ubotu here :)

[03:51] <ryugaka> i use to dual boot ubuntu and windows, and my computer borked so i haven't used ubuntu in sometime.
[03:51] <wols> your adapter can use 3 different chips...
[03:51] <Semper> got that message after installing ati drivers from desktop effects
[03:52] <c0redamage> i have a problem with gcc and KDevelop C/C++ everytime I'm trying to build a Project he exits with status 2 and can't find aclocal, but I'v installed the build essentials Package.
[03:52] <Semper> any idea what it meens?
[03:52] <ward_> melon, see, wols probably found it trough google :p
[03:52] <sainzeo> after the new kernel update that was released a few days ago, i am unable to connect to WPA - any suggestions?
[03:52] <wols> melon: try ralink rt2500 drivers
[03:52] <Wips> Is there someway to replace firefox with Opera? Make opera my main-browser. and replace the icon up in the left-corner too..
[03:52] <wols> Semper: it means that you cannot use your card for beryl _unless_ you use Xgl
[03:52] <Semper> blah.
[03:53] <NET||abuse> hi guys,, i've upgraded from dapper to edgy, then just yesterday to feisty,, now something i dont remember not being able to do, is write to the 2 fat32 partitions that are on my drive (i share the data drives at 90GB each with windows) but can't write to them
[03:53] <CheshireViking> Semper, sounds like the driver isn't properly configured/installed, does glxgears or glxinfo work or do they return an error?
[03:53] <Semper> how exactly do i use xgl
[03:53] <sainzeo> @Semper: yeah i know...I ran into the same problem as you
[03:53] <NET||abuse> I'll rephrase that, when i was on edgy, i thought i could write to those drives.. now i can't
[03:53] <Semper> lol
[03:53] <Semper> ill try
[03:53] <lxuser> wols: thank you that worked
[03:53] <Semper> 1sec
[03:53] <GodTodd> Semper: you have an ati mx200 card too, eh? ;)
[03:53] <AzMoo> So I just restarted after the kernel upgrade to 2.6.20-16 and now my ntfs partitions aren't mounting. It tells me that sda1 and sdc1 don't exist.
[03:54] <Semper> yes
[03:54] <Semper> wolf returned no errors
[03:54] <NET||abuse> so when look at fstab, there's all the UUID business..
[03:54] <jadarite> What instant messaging programs do Ubuntu users use?

[03:54] <Semper> "glxinfo"
[03:54] <PriceChild> ward_, stupid question, have you read the README files etc. ?
[03:54] <lxuser> CheshireViking: You say I should just reinstall my accelerated drivers after going back to nv and I shouldnt have a problem?
[03:54] <PriceChild> ward_, does it fail for unmet build deps?
[03:54] <wykis> Hello, how is it possible to control a current X session through another computer? I don't want to do any restarting etc.
[03:54] <GodTodd> semper: for that card you have to set up an xgl session and then switch to it when you want to run 3d games and stuff...at least that's what i had to do
[03:54] <NET||abuse> oh, there's also gismo... or somethin
[03:55] <ward_> PriceChild, yeah i did, and nope nu unmet dependencies
[03:55] <Semper> todd how exactly would i do that
[03:55] <wols> GodTodd: you're right

[03:55] <sainzeo> @GodTodd: did you notice any "jittering" or "choppiness" while using XGL?
[03:55] <Semper> because thats exactly what i needa do lol
[03:55] <PriceChild> ward_, pastebin the build log please.
[03:55] <lxuser> anyway, thanks again.
[03:55] <GodTodd> sainzeo: haven't really used it too much to be honest heh
[03:55] <Semper> i need those cool little 3d effects O.o
[03:56] <ward_> PriceChild, ok, just a minute
[03:56] <sainzeo> @GodTodd: haha, ok
[03:56] <KnowledgEngineer> ! devubuntu
[03:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about devubuntu - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:56] <ward_> PriceChild, config.log ?
[03:56] <CheshireViking> lxuser, thats what i did, whether its the only option, i'm not sure, how was the original nvidia driver installed?
[03:56] <PriceChild> ward_, the output of the terminal when you build
[03:56] <GodTodd> Semper: what i did was google "ati radeon mx200" + ubuntu....there's some good step by steps on there
[03:56] <krisbo9000> hello
[03:56] <ward_> PriceChild, ok, let me build it again in that case
[03:56] <sainzeo> @Semper: this is the guide I used to get XGL working with my ATI card: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide
[03:57] <GodTodd> it's a known issue because ati has some problem making linux drivers
[03:57] <krisbo9000> Hi ... I just want to know how to install microsoft fonts. I'm fairly new to Linux... :)
[03:57] <Semper> is that the one where u edit the config file?

[03:57] <beg1689> is it possible to install windows xp on another partition without destroying my ubuntu intallation? wine just isn't cutting it
[03:57] <GodTodd> i just know my next laptop will *not* have an ati card :)
[03:57] <Semper> blah...last time i tried editing the config file i got an huge xserver error
[03:58] <GodTodd> Semper: ir's more involved than that even
[03:58] <GodTodd> s/ir's/it's
[03:58] <ward_> PriceChild, do u need everything or is whatever fits in the terminal ok?
[03:58] <krisbo9000> is that for version 7.04? thx
[03:58] <ryugaka> beg
[03:58] <PriceChild> ward_, make > make.log
[03:58] <sainzeo> @Semper: just make sure you make a backup of the xorg.conf file so if the error does creep in, you can replace it with the backed up file
[03:58] <ward_> PriceChild, ok
[03:58] <PriceChild> ward_, that will make a file called "make.log" :)
[03:58] <ward_> everything :-)
[03:58] <SlimeyPete> beg1689: yes. Just tell Windows to create its partition in the free space on your drive. However you will have to boot back into Linux using a rescue/live cd and set up your boot menu (Windows will overwrite the Linux bootloader so you won't get the opportunity to load Linux when you boot)
[03:58] <Semper> i would know how to replace it though
[03:58] <ward_> PriceChild, i know :-)
[03:59] <Semper> wouldnt*
[03:59] <beg1689> in case it matters i have 4 partitions in this order: 20gb ext3 root partition, 100gb /home partition, 512gb swap, then an extra 20gb
[03:59] <sainzeo> @Semper: did you get like a blue screen before that said Xserver failed to start or something like that?
[03:59] <Semper> last time which was yesterday lolz i had to reinstall ubuntu
[03:59] <Semper> yes
[03:59] <Semper> gave me a xorg error
[03:59] <beg1689> SlimeyPete: it doesnt matter that the first partition is non-windows?
[03:59] <Tadelusz> $4op <- free ops!!! join!!!
[03:59] <Tadelusz> #4op <- free ops!!! join!!!
[03:59] <Semper> put me in the terminal but i didnt know want to do
[03:59] <Tadelusz> #4op <- free ops!!! join!!!
[03:59] <sainzeo> @Semper: if you restart the computer, you'll get the error again, probably, if that happens again, but it should kick you out then to a terminal

[04:00] <Semper> yes for installs but the commands i got from websites
[04:00] <volfi-idam> I have connected an LCD monitor to my laptop, and it has 1680x1050 resolution
[04:00] <volfi-idam> it works fine. but as soon as I unplug the jack and restart my computer, after logging in, it resets back to the login screen on my actual laptop screen, I hacked through it by pluging the cable and unplugging it before it gets the chance to change the resolution, but I want to fix this, any ideas?
[04:00] <SlimeyPete> beg1689: as far as I know, it shouldn't matter, no.
[04:00] <Semper> ive only had ubuntu for a day
[04:00] <ward_> PriceChild, its building, this will take a few minutes
[04:00] <beg1689> SlimeyPete: so are there instructions for fixing the boot loader?
[04:00] <sainzeo> @Semper: i could help you through it if you run into problems again - do you have another available computer to connect with?

[04:01] <sainzeo> @Semper: yeah if you follow the guide exactly, it shouldn't cause problems...shouldn't haha
[04:01] <Semper> lol
[04:01] <SlimeyPete> beg1689: I don't know any URLs but there are bound to be HOWTOs out there somewhere. It's not hard. The bootloader is called grub, and you just boot into your Ubuntu partition using (e.g.) the alternate install CD, then edit the grub config and run grub-install against your drive.
[04:02] <sainzeo> @Semper: you do know how to make a backup copy of the xorg.conf file though right?
[04:02] <Semper> nopes.
[04:02] <ryugaka> or super grub disc or whatever it's called.
[04:02] <Semper> neither do i know how to swap them out

[04:08] <CheshireViking> Noodlesgc, before anyone can help, they'll need a bit more detail on your problem, such as what part of the installation doesn't work, what laptop it is etc
[04:08] <ryugaka> oh no @sainzeo :D
[04:08] <sainzeo> @paintcan: i have used rhythmbox
[04:08] <sainzeo> @ryugaka: what what???

[04:09] <sainzeo> @paintcan: i'm not sure, i haven't attempted to do  that - you may be able to copy the music off from the ipod using rhythmbox then burning those files
[04:09] <maria> how shall I list all the man pages ?
[04:10] <sainzeo> @ryugaka: haha..thankfully, it isn't too bad of a song; sadly, at the time it was soo popular, my gf had just dumped me haha

[04:15] <walejava> i have been trying to install postfix + dovecot, but no luck, i just have some questions
[04:15] <walejava> please what is sasl-auth and pam.d and how do they relate?
[04:16] <nko_> i have a problem with gnome, i can start gnome after a gdm
[04:16] <nko_> sorry i can't start after gdm
[04:16] <maria> any idea everyone ?
[04:16] <wols> maria: locate man/man will list all files
[04:16] <nko_> i receive this error:  error while loading shared libraries: ace: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[04:17] <nko_> with gnome program like gedit or evolution
[04:17] <nko_> you have a solution?
[04:17] <AzMoo> maria, "find /usr/share/man/ -iname '*.gz'", but it's not really going to help you much. I just did a check and there's 3602 on my system.
[04:17] <wols> walejava: sasl can under some circumstances use pam for authentification. sasl is mainly used with some internet daemons like exim, postfix, cyrus
[04:19] <walejava> wols thanks
[04:19] <phanto1> how doo i set user to login as root
[04:20] <nko_> please one help for a gnome incomprensible error
[04:20] <walejava> so what is pam? and how does it help in aiding sasl in authentication
[04:20] <wols> phanto1: ubuntu has no root user
[04:21] <buenas_werte> walejava do a man pam.d  this has an intro info
[04:21] <kevin1> Is there an open-source application that will let me fill out Filable PDF and SAVE it?
[04:21] <wols> if you want to run a X program as roon, use gksudo
[04:21] <nko_> no wols ubuntu have "sudo"
[04:21] <wols> kevin1: gimp can do it afaik, but there are others
[04:21] <nko_> sorry "has"
[04:21] <phanto1> wols:  How doo I get "umask" option (Beginner)
[04:21] <buenas_werte> kevin1 what do you mean by Filable pdf? to create a pdf file?
[04:21] <wols> nko_: ubuntu has no root account, which is why you always have to use sudo
[04:21] <wols> phanto1: man mount
[04:21] <walejava> no manual entry for pam.d
[04:22] <Noodlesgc> I have a gateway 400 sd4 with a radeon mobility using alternate cd it fails at the step "select and install software"
[04:22] <symlink> but you can set up a root account
[04:22] <kevin1> buenas_werte,  no I need to fill out one, but its like 15+ pages and would like to not have to start over
[04:22] <buenas_werte> walejava:  just try man pam
[04:22] <walejava> i think its man pam
[04:22] <phanto1> wols: man mount = manual mount >how
[04:22] <walejava> i love this channel already
[04:22] <walejava> ubuntu rulez
[04:22] <kevin1> wols, what alternatives besides gimp?
[04:23] <nko_> if you want you can re-activate root... but i prefer sudo
[04:23] <phanto1> wols: the ntfs tutorial upsets my ntfs config tool and it disables ntfs acess.
[04:23] <pai> what do i do with a program i just downloaded? its a *.tar.bz2 -- how do i run it?
[04:24] <wols> phanto1: do you use ntfs-3g?
[04:24] <phanto1> wols: y
[04:24] <buenas_werte> pai: you need to untar it first like so  tar -xvjf *.tar.bz2
[04:24] <wols> so how do you mount it?
[04:24] <kevin1> I am looking for something like Adobe-Reader, but will let me SAVE it
[04:24] <Noodlesgc> I really really need help, y wont anyone help me?
[04:24] <nko_> phanto1 can you help me for a gnome problem?
[04:24] <pai> oic
[04:24] <pai> wait
[04:25] <wols> kevin1: then get adobe reader?
[04:25] <phanto1> nko_: beginner
[04:25] <kevin1> wols, Adobe-Reader won't let you save
[04:25] <wols> kevin1: what version?
[04:25] <hoarycripple> how can i remove gdm from the default runlevel?  Something like "update-rc.g remove gdm default"?
[04:25] <nko_> phanto1 are you a beginner?
[04:25] <symlink> buenas_werte, dont you have to unzip it first
[04:25] <kevin1> wols, All versions
[04:25] <computermc> when I try to add a samba user it gives me this... "Failed to find user james in passdb backend." james is the user that I have set up under user settings. Any ideas why this is happening?
[04:25] <phanto1> nko_: exact
[04:25] <nko_> ok
[04:26] <hoarycripple> i mean update-rc.d
[04:26] <buenas_werte> symlink: thats the way to unzip (untar)
[04:26] <kevin1> wols, You have to have Adobe-Acrobat to save... .Adobe Reader is just for reading... it doesn't save
[04:26] <nko_> but there is someone "senior" of ubuntu for some help?
[04:26] <noob> which irc client do you use?
[04:26] <Gabrie1> hi there... i need some information

[04:27] <kevin1> AzMoo, they only let you save BLANK form
[04:27] <kevin1> I am going to be filling out a form and want to save my information with the form
[04:28] <Gabrie1> what can i do if sl-modem-daemon cant start running?
[04:28] <AzMoo> kevin1, ah hah, sorry, I missed that bit.
[04:28] <kevin1> Therefore I need an open-source application which will allow you save fillable pdf
[04:28] <buenas_werte> kevin1: its a web site?
[04:28] <pai> buenas_werte, after i untar it, what's next?
[04:28] <AzMoo> buenas_werte, no, pdf's have the ability to input data.
[04:28] <Noodlesgc> PLEASE HELP ME, I have a gateway 400 sd4 with a radeon mobility using alternate cd it fails at the step "select and install software"
[04:28] <Barnab1> anyone got a good tutorial for Feisty/XGL/Beryl for an ATI X1600? the fglrx is already installed correctly...
[04:28] <kevin1> buenas_werte, no it is a PDF..
[04:29] <buenas_werte> pai: then if its a source files, you need to compile it ..cd to the dir of the un-tarred file
[04:29] <wols> symlink: cinelerra?
[04:29] <ryugaka> wewt
[04:29] <ryugaka> ok the only sucky thing is i can get amarok to gimme sound under andlinux
[04:29] <pai> buenas_werte, i'm there now
[04:29] <MenZa> I'm having some problems with vmware-server. I had it installed earlier, did sudo apt-get remove vmware-server, and now it's gone. I attempt to re-install it, and it tells me that "A previous installating of a VMware product has been detected.", and that I must --purge the package to completely remove it. I do that, and I still get the same problem. What gives?
[04:29] <kevin1> AzMoo, Do you know of any applications other than Adobe-Reader for fillable pdf?
[04:30] <buenas_werte> pai: maybe read the README file? what is that file about?
[04:30] <kevin1> AzMoo, I need Adobe-Acrobat, but not made for linux
[04:30] <AzMoo> kevin1, http://applications.linux.com/article.pl?sid=05/01/06/0612209 <--- I've never used either of them.
[04:31] <AzMoo> kevin1, but it seems to be about as close as you're going to get.
[04:31] <kevin1> AzMoo, Thanks
[04:31] <pai> buenas_werte, could i chat with you privately?
[04:31] <buenas_werte> yeah sure
[04:31] <Gabrie1> hi there.. i'm trying to run sl-modem-daemon but its not working.... it says that the /var/run/slmodemd.pid exists... what can i do???
[04:31] <Noodlesgc> THIS PLACE FUCKING BLOWS IM LEAVING!
[04:31] <MenZa> !language | Noodlesgc
[04:31] <ubotu> Noodlesgc: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:31] <wols> Gabrie1: have you truly checked that the daemon is not running yet?
[04:31] <MenZa> !patience | Noodlesgc
[04:31] <ubotu> Noodlesgc: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[04:32] <buenas_werte> kevin1 just an idea, if the original pdf file is something you can modify (I assume it is in xml format) java has the xsl-fo tools to create pdf
[04:32] <ward__> PriceChild, should i pastebin this?
[04:32] <PriceChild> !paste
[04:32] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:32] <Gabrie1> when i use status it says that its not running
[04:33] <ward__> PriceChild, i know what a pastebin is lol
[04:34] <agn0stic> gabriel1: kill -9 `/var/run/slmodemd.pid` maybe. Those are backqoutes. Failing that, try removing the file.
[04:34] <ward__> PriceChild, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23254/
[04:34] <Gabrie1> ok ill try
[04:34] <_apisq> yetiman, how are you?
[04:34] <ward__> PriceChild, i meant: sould i paste something so large
[04:34] <PriceChild> ward__, eek its not english... :)
[04:34] <sharperguy> I have a strange problem with partitions - I resized the NTFS partition to make room for resizing the ubuntu partition to a larger size, but now I can't move/resize the ubuntu partition into the free space
[04:35] <MenZa> I'm having some problems with vmware-server. I had it installed earlier, did sudo apt-get remove vmware-server, and now it's gone. I attempt to re-install it, and it tells me that "A previous installating of a VMware product has been detected.", and that I must --purge the package to completely remove it. I do that, and I still get the same problem. What gives?
[04:35] <glombool> I'm having problems getting nvidia drivers to work after the kernel upgrade...  Anyone have any tips?
[04:35] <kitche> sharperguy: you can't resize the front of a partition only the back
[04:35] <ward__> PriceChild, its dutch, let me tell u the dutch parts :-)
[04:35] <ward__> PriceChild, "Let op" = "warning"
[04:35] <rahbin> My laptop (ubuntu 7.04, keyboard set on US Int) has set the apostrophe/quotation mark key as an accent key. How can I disable this?
[04:36] <PriceChild> ward__, I should be able to guess most of it... but I think its out of my experience...
[04:36] <sharperguy> kitche, but i can't even more the partition into the area, and then resize it at the other end
[04:36] <agn0stic> menza: apt-remove vmware-server --purge
[04:36] <MenZa> agn0stic: I did.
[04:36] <kitche> sharperguy: no since your moving the front of the partition still
[04:36] <ward__> PriceChild, ask what you don't know please :-)
[04:36] <agn0stic> menza: with the --purge? hmm.
[04:36] <JakeX> hmm i need some major help.. my ubuntu 6.04 had a kernel panic last night.. and now i LOST the eth0!! :|   I can't get at any vital files on the server.. i can't even mount a damn usb drive :(
[04:36] <MenZa> Yes, with --purge
[04:36] <PARLIAMENT> a.q
[04:36] <JEnnYKolbexx> hi , i have a system monitor symbol in tastbar, it shows that i am using 100% CPU, but when i look into processes it only shows that the system-monitor ( ~5-20% ) is running and the rest is sleeping,
[04:36] <JakeX> can anyone help me? :P
[04:36] <PARLIAMENT> sizin
[04:36] <JEnnYKolbexx> what could that be?
[04:36] <PARLIAMENT> amcklar
[04:36] <PARLIAMENT> :D
[04:36] <MenZa> It then says it has plenty of packages it doesn't need, and that I can remove those with "autoremove"--I do apt-get autoremove, and it frees up 12-ish megabytes.
[04:37] <MenZa> Still, I have the same problem.
[04:37] <sharperguy> kitche, well what can I do then?
[04:37] <agn0stic> menza: dpkg --get-selections | grep vmware
[04:37] <glombool> !nvidia
[04:37] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:37] <agn0stic> menza: does that show anything?
[04:37] <sainzeo> after the kernel update, i can no longer connect to WPA networks, any suggestions?
[04:37] <glombool> !nvidia-glx-new
[04:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nvidia-glx-new - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:37] <MenZa> agn0stic: yeah, let me pastebin
[04:37] <JEnnYKolbexx> but anyway 100% is displayed
[04:37] <kitche> sharperguy: just make a new partition and mount it under whatever you wish witht hat freespace
[04:37] <PriceChild> ward__, wait... does this even error out? I may be being silly but to me its ok...
[04:38] <MenZa> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23255/ <- agn0stic
[04:38] <tyler_> could someone please help me get my sound card configured to record internet streams from a program like audacity
[04:38] <sharperguy> kitche, :S is that the only option?
[04:38] <ward__> PriceChild, the text = probably too large to pastebin...
[04:38] <kitche> sharperguy: or reinstall :)
[04:38] <JakeX> can anyone offer assistance? I seem to have lost eth0 its not working for some reason.. it was last night.. my server which has been running for like over 9 months just had a Kernel Panic: Not sync.. and locked up, upon reboot eth0 won't come up, says device not found
[04:38] <ward__> PriceChild, it does error out, but that part is missing
[04:39] <JakeX> please can anyone help me out..
[04:39] <kitche> tyler_: umm do you mean audiacous and not audacity
[04:39] <PriceChild> ward__, well I don't think I can help without seeing the errors....?
[04:39] <PriceChild> ward__, even with the errors I need to diagnise I'm not to confident but you never know...
[04:39] <ward__> PriceChild, i'll post the end of the proccess
[04:39] <Federico90> hi guys
[04:39] <kitche> JakeX: sounds like a hardware failure if it was running fine then did a kernel panic
[04:39] <tyler_> no i want to record from audacity but my sound card doesn't work correctly with it. I had this problem on vista too and i never got it fixed
[04:39] <glombool> ...anyone?  I cannot start xserver now after a kernel upgrade to  2.6.20-16-386.  I know it is the nvidia drivers.  What do I need to do?
[04:39] <sharperguy> kitche, I'm sure ive moved a partition before though....
[04:39] <JakeX> ya.. well so the eth0 is an onboard network card..
[04:40] <JakeX> i need to get files off the machine ASAP..
[04:40] <JakeX> :|
[04:40] <Federico90> question: what do i do to give a name to the pc in lan?
[04:40] <JakeX> i put in a 2nd network card
[04:40] <wols> Federico90: put it in DNS
[04:40] <ward__> PriceChild, this is the end: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23256/
[04:40] <JakeX> but i don't know how to enable / set it up.. usually did all this during the install
[04:40] <JEnnYKolbexx> !nvidia
[04:40] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[04:40] <agn0stic> menza: huh... is there a /usr/bin/vmware-uninstall.pl? if so try running that. if not, check for /etc/vmware and delete that if it exists
[04:40] <Federico90> wols: what?
[04:40] <wols> JEnnYKolbexx: man interfaces
[04:40] <sharperguy> kitche: because it says resize/move but then the only option is to resize, you can even more it in the other direction
[04:40] <glombool> If the !nvidia was for me... that isn't helpful.
[04:41] <wols> Federico90: you need to put it in DNS, your DNS server or at least resolver on evey machine that needs to resolve that name
[04:41] <kitche> sharperguy: don't know what to tell you if it's not being able to move then I can't help you exactly since I never moved a partition forward only back
[04:41] <MenZa> agn0stic: file didn't exist, the directory exists though
[04:41] <wols> sharperguy: are you currently using that partition, ie did you boot from it?
[04:41] <MenZa> I removed it
[04:41] <sharperguy> wols, nope i am in the livecd and unmounted all of them
[04:41] <Federico90> wols: not that name, the machine name. Eg. MyPc.
[04:42] <wols> Federico90: man hostname
[04:42] <MenZa> agn0stic: let me try
[04:42] <sharperguy> kitche, I cant move it in either direction
[04:42] <MenZa> It works, agn0stic :D
[04:42] <MenZa> Thank you :)
[04:42] <Federico90> wols: hostname -a
[04:43] <agn0stic> menza: np. glad it worked
[04:43] <c1|freaky> someone knows what has been fixed in the new new kernel 2.6.20.16?
[04:43] <Federico90> wols: he doesnt give anything
[04:43] <c1|freaky> *what was
[04:43] <kitche> JakeX: please do not dcc chat with me
[04:43] <MenZa> c1|freaky: check kernel.org
[04:43] <buenas_werte> JakeX type nm-tool   does it show your existing eth0 ?
[04:43] <wols> Federico90: what doesn't?
[04:43] <Bug2000> How is going the NTFS writing?
[04:43] <JakeX> sorry accidentally double clicked your name
[04:43] <JakeX> :P
[04:43] <ward__> PriceChild, (fout = error)
[04:43] <PriceChild> c1|freaky, try reading security on lists.ubuntu.com
[04:44] <tyler_> could anyone give me a walkthrough to fix recording with my soundcard. I am kinda new to linux and i need this feature
[04:44] <Federico90> wols: for the pc there isn't a name
[04:44] <c1|freaky> MenZa: i thought the .16 is just a ubuntu postfix or whatever?
[04:44] <wols> !ntfs-3g | Bug2000
[04:44] <ubotu> Bug2000: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[04:44] <wols> Federico90: you asked to set one
[04:44] <Bug2000> Toda.
[04:44] <MenZa> c1|freaky: no idea, honestly
[04:44] <kitche> tyler_: get streamripper
[04:44] <Federico90> wols: i knew a method to render visible the pc name
[04:44] <PriceChild> c1|freaky, it fixes a hell of a lot of security holes
[04:44] <wols> Federico90: and if you read the manpage for hostname you will find out everything you know
[04:44] <Federico90> wols: but i don't remember
[04:44] <ward__> PriceChild, you saw the last link i gave u with the end of the make command right?
[04:44] <ward__> just to make sure
[04:44] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: i cant find de slmodemd.pid
[04:44] <wols> *you need to know
[04:45] <PriceChild> ward__, just got it now sorry
[04:45] <tyler_> recording doesn't work in any program. it isn't set up right or something and I want to record from rhapsody and be able to edit them in audacity
[04:45] <agn0stic> gabriel1: is it not in /var/run? that's why it wasn't running before right, because the pid file existed
[04:45] <ward__> PriceChild, no problem, that's why i asked, thought u missedit :-)
[04:45] <JEnnYKolbexx> !boinc
[04:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about boinc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:45] <Gabrie1> yeah
[04:45] <Gabrie1> but nothing happend
[04:45] <kitche> tyler_: no program has recording abilities you gotta get streamripper to do what you want
[04:46] <PriceChild> ward__, to me it just looks like errors in the original code... not exactly an easy fix... but I might not know :)
[04:46] <Gabrie1> hold on...
[04:46] <buenas_werte> Gabrie1: whats the name of the script you run it? look inside it and see if you can somehow trace where it checks the pid before it continue running
[04:46] <agn0stic> gabriel: if the kill -9 command was successful, nothing obvious would happen and the pid file would disappear. is it still complaining about a missing pid file even though its not there?
[04:47] <kitche> tyler_: unless your recording though your sound card
[04:47] <ward__> PriceChild, you might not know? does that mean you don't know, or that you're still looking into it?
[04:47] <agn0stic> gabriel1: i mean present pid file, not missing
[04:47] <Garnol> Hi .. i have got a texas instruments SDCard reader built in my notebook ... But it seems like ubuntu doesnt recognize the Reader .. im currently running Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 -- Can you help ?? (or is there a good tutorial ??)
[04:47] <Gabrie1> the pid file still there
[04:47] <Gabrie1> the kill command didnt work
[04:47] <MediaAtTech> ???????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[04:47] <MediaAtTech> check the config files
[04:48] <buenas_werte> Gabrie1: if you're root, kill -9 will kill it
[04:48] <Gabrie1> ok holdon
[04:49] <slmnhq> hi, I'm using dapper server .. added a new user account by "sudo adduser nuser"
[04:49] <Garnol> Hi .. i have got a texas instruments SDCard reader built in my notebook ... But it seems like ubuntu doesnt recognize the Reader .. im currently running Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 -- Can you help ?? (or is there a good tutorial ??)
[04:49] <agn0stic> buenas: thanks, I forgot to mention that gabriel would probably need root
[04:49] <PriceChild> ward__, It means I "think" there's an error in the original code. However I'm not the best at these things and so it might be a stupid assumption.
[04:49] <slmnhq> as the new user, I can't perform sudo operations
[04:49] <ward__> PriceChild, ok
[04:49] <ward__> PriceChild, thanx for looking into it
[04:49] <JakeX> buenas_werte: i did an lspci and it shows the 2nd realtek network card, I did the 'nm-tool' command but I have no such command
[04:49] <PriceChild> Sorry I'm no better ward__
[04:50] <ma3x> how can I boot into server mode (without X) ?
[04:50] <PriceChild> *no help
[04:50] <kitche> slmnhq: the new user is not part of the admin group
[04:50] <ma3x> what should I type at the boot promt?
[04:50] <slmnhq> the /etc/sudoers file has an entry ROOT = (ALL) ALL
[04:50] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: kill -9 `/var/run/slmodemd.pid`    right?
[04:50] <agn0stic> gabriel: assuming the pid file is there, yes
[04:50] <slmnhq> kitche: no... i suppose i have to do addgroup?
[04:50] <Gabrie1> it says that some arguments are missing
[04:51] <ward__> PriceChild, no problem
[04:51] <geet> Hey guys, I have this really unique problem. When I browse myspace.com, for some reason my DNS lookups stop working for about 1 minute. I can't go to www.google.com using the DNS name, but I can browse by IP address, this happens in Windows XP and Linux. The problem is remedied in XP by setting an alternative dns server in the TCP/IP settings to bypass my router, but when I do so in Linux using resolv.conf, the problem still occ
[04:51] <agn0stic> gabriel1: kill -9 `cat /var/run/slmodemd.pid` try that
[04:51] <Gabrie1> ok
[04:51] <agn0stic> oops
[04:51] <buenas_werte> JakeX i guess you just have to have to manually enter it on /etc/network/interfaces
[04:51] <Gabrie1> there is no process
[04:52] <slmnhq> how do I add a user to the admin group?
[04:52] <JakeX> buenas_werte: how do i manually refer to it?
[04:52] <grubiskillingme> what is the command for editing the grub menu list?
[04:52] <Gabrie1> cant i just delete the slmodemd.pid file?
[04:52] <JakeX> buenas_werte: i had my onboard manually set as eth0
[04:52] <kitche> slmnhq: for me I just use usermod
[04:52] <agn0stic> gabriel1: you may be able to.
[04:52] <Alan> anybody here aware of a the latest kernel upgrade breaking batter ACPI stuff on toshiba laptops ?
[04:52] <Gabrie1> ok i'll try
[04:52] <JakeX> buenas_werte: so i tossed in a 2nd network card, I need to get files off this machine!
[04:52] <slmnhq> kitche: thanks.. i'll man it
[04:53] <grubiskillingme> what is the sudo command to edit the grub men.lst?  I need to change the boot order of OS's.
[04:53] <grubiskillingme> men.lst = menu.lst
[04:53] <odneun> sudo nano -w /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:53] <kitche> grubiskillingme: gksu gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:53] <Broccoly> where does the gnome screen resolution utility get it's possible resolutions? i cant seem to change refresh
[04:53] <odneun> /etc/X11/xorg.conf, Broccoly
[04:53] <grubiskillingme> thanks odneun and kitche
[04:54] <kitche> grubiskillingme: either or works depending on how you want to edit it :)
[04:54] <kitche> odneun: what is nano -w for?
[04:54] <geet> lol thanks anyways guys, i knew my problem was pretty "out there" and nobody probably knew anything about it, i think i'd need to just buy a new router
[04:54] <odneun> kitche, nano, with no line wrapping
[04:54] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: the file slmodemd.pid has the following text inside: 4883
[04:54] <ward__> does anyone (preferably with building experience) feel like trying to compile gephex? i tried everything
[04:55] <Broccoly> odneun: doesnt look it does, i changed it, and my logon screen changed, but when I load my gnome session it reverts back to somethin not specific in xorg.conf
[04:55] <kitche> odneun: yeha I just man it
[04:55] <Gabrie1> i tought it was the pid
[04:55] <grubiskillingm1> kitche can you repeat the commands - i didn't copy it right.
[04:55] <agn0stic> gabriel: it is
[04:55] <Gabrie1> ahahahhaa... notthing happened

[04:59] <ward__> danielDOM, lol no idea, i allways remember what OSis on my system :p
[05:00] <odneun> I was wondering if anyone could help me out with my audio, specifically my mic's boost, i have an maudio card and a realtec, i know how to select which one to use [i'm using teamspeak]  but the mic isn't working [the output is, out of the right sound card] . I suspect because the mic isn't recieving a mic boost, but there isn't an option i can find to enable it
[05:00] <kitche> slmnhq: not a problem

[05:01] <ward__> does anyone (preferably with building experience) feel like trying to compile gephex? i tried everything (for several days)
[05:01] <Ayabara> it's the PS1 variable I need to set to get another prompt in gnome-terminal, right?

[05:02] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: oww.. now i see... let me try eheheheh
[05:03] <Ayabara> kitche, thats what I'm looking for actually. the default is a bit too much for me :-)
[05:03] <ward__> danielDOM, tons of guides when u search google, but its important u use a guide for your version

[05:04] <ward__> CheshireViking, vor danielDOM  :p
[05:04] <ward__> vor = for
[05:04] <kitche> Gabrie1: either pastebin.ca or the paste.ubuntu.nl one
[05:04] <taurusivy> what should i install ? i386 or amd64?
[05:04] <Gabrie1> hum ok
[05:04] <ward__> danielDOM,  lsb_release -a 
[05:04] <ward__> in terminal
[05:04] <SlimeyPete> taurusivy: either. But I'd go for i386 if I were you - better software support at the moment.
[05:04] <k0> which is better bluefish or quanta plus??
[05:04] <danielDOM> ward__ feisty
[05:04] <Chillyboarder> how do I configure wine? I see have it installed, but can't open my drivers that are .exe, what do I have to do?

[05:05] <Rprp> Hi, Does someone know what wrong is with this: http://rafb.net/p/skrFPU96.html 'sensors' doesnt work. :( (Core 2 duo e6400, Asus p5b)
[05:05] <kitche> Chillyboarder: umm what drivers?
[05:05] <kitche> Chillyboarder: since wine is not meant for that
[05:05] <Chillyboarder> graphics driver for one
[05:05] <danielDOM> chillyboarder "wine game.exe"
[05:05] <ward__> CheshireViking, i know, no problem :-)
[05:05] <agn0stic> gabrie1: "sudo  /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon start" may work as well
[05:05] <ward__> danielDOM, its in the restricted drivers normally
[05:05] <kitche> Chillyboarder: what graphic driver?
[05:05] <ward__> danielDOM, thats in system -> addministration
[05:05] <agn0stic> gabrie1: or "sudo  /etc/init.d/sl-modem-daemon restart"
[05:05] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: i did it
[05:05] <Chillyboarder> R135765.EXE
[05:06] <ward__> danielDOM, it could be wrongly translated, i'm using a dutch version
[05:06] <kitche> Chillyboarder: umm that doesn't answer my question
[05:06] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: but its not working... whe i use status it says that its not running
[05:06] <Chillyboarder> umm
[05:06] <kitche> Chillyboarder: what graphic card do you have
[05:06] <Chillyboarder> 1sec I'll look the driver up.
[05:07] <Chillyboarder>  Intel 945GM Graphics Controller
[05:07] <Chillyboarder> that?
[05:07] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: root      6181  0.0  0.1   2812   764 pts/0    R+   12:05   0:00 grep slmodemd
[05:07] <Gabrie1> the return of ps
[05:07] <kitche> Chillyboarder: just use the i810 driver
[05:07] <agn0stic> gabrie1: right, that's the process that was searching. that means it's really really not running
[05:07] <Chillyboarder> where do I find that?
[05:07] <Chillyboarder> where do I find that?
[05:07] <kitche> Chillyboarder: which ubuntu probably already uses for your xorg.conf anyways
[05:07] <Chillyboarder> oops
[05:07] <Chillyboarder> sry
[05:08] <wols> Chillyboarder: you need the intel 915 graphics driver
[05:08] <wols> !intel915
[05:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about intel915 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:08] <agn0stic> gabrie1: I have no idea why removing the pid file and restarting it wouldn't work.
[05:08] <PriceChild> wols, that should be isntalled by defaults
[05:08] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: yeah... but thx man... i'll see what i can do
[05:08] <wols> Chillyboarder: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:08] <Chillyboarder> what are some good driver sites besides softpedia btw?
[05:08] <agn0stic> gabrie1: have fun, it's a learning process
[05:09] <Chillyboarder> k 1sec
[05:09] <kitche> Chillyboarder: umm none for linux
[05:09] <wols> Chillyboarder: there is no good linux dirver site except maybe kernel.org
[05:09] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: uauhAuhA... yeah... thx anyway... bye
[05:09] <Rprp> Hi, Does someone know what wrong is with this: http://rafb.net/p/skrFPU96.html 'sensors' doesnt work. :( (Core 2 duo e6400, Asus p5b)
[05:09] <wols> Chillyboarder: you need the intel915 driver for your chip
[05:09] <Chillyboarder> ok, will google it, and sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[05:09] <taurusivy> Rprp:maybe u can look around for lm_sensor
[05:09] <Chillyboarder> what was that for?
[05:09] <Chillyboarder> I got a window thing
[05:10] <Cavallek> is there any tool to analyze all traffice that goes throught my ethernet card ?
[05:10] <agn0stic> cavallek: ethereal for one
[05:10] <wols> analyze how?
[05:10] <kitche> Chillyboarder: the dpkg-rconfigure command lets you reconfigure packages and such that you have installed
[05:10] <agn0stic> cavalled: there's a bunch
[05:10] <Chillyboarder> k
[05:10] <wols> Chillyboarder: to reconfigure your driver that is used for X
[05:10] <kitche> Chillyboarder: your xorg.conf should be using the driver for i915 by default
[05:10] <wols> and choosing the right one
[05:10] <Cavallek> I nead to see how much traffic uses dns server, ssh etc. Something in that way
[05:11] <Chillyboarder> how do I find out qhat the default is?
[05:11] <wols> Cavallek: ipac-ng
[05:11] <buenas_werte> JakeX: were you able to get the 2nd nic to work?
[05:11] <ward__> danielDOM, did you found it / did it work?

[05:11] <ubotu> sekwdc: 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?
[05:11] <Chillyboarder> well my graphics arn't as clear as with xp with driver installed, and little big everything is.
[05:12] <ward__> danielDOM, anyway, good luck :-)
[05:12] <gerhard> hi is there a vnc remote administration software for ubuntu?
[05:12] <s0nix> anyone have installed unreal tournament under egdy 64 bits ?
[05:12] <wols> Chillyboarder: then change the resolution
[05:12] <wols> gerhard: yes. vnc among others
[05:12] <kitche> Chillyboarder: well considering that this is not windows it will look different :)
[05:12] <gerhard> where can i get such software, wols?
[05:12] <Chillyboarder> theres only 2 available, thats the default with no driver, just as with xp I think.
[05:12] <Chillyboarder> lol :(

[05:13] <gerhard> allrigt
[05:13] <gerhard> h
[05:13] <agn0stic> gabrie1: i've never used it. probably /dev/modem or similar
[05:13] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: just because i dont realy sure if its the real chipset of this modem... i found some people saying its fake
[05:14] <phanto1> My problem http://farm1.static.flickr.com/223/521584702_e2d57dd200_o.png how doo I get my user name there?
[05:14] <agn0stic> gabrie1: i can tell you that getting embedded modem chipsets to work with linux was a real pain last time i tried....winmodems, ugh.
[05:14] <Chillyboarder> http://support.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-010512.htm > mine ain't listed? :( meaning?

[05:15] <Rprp> Hi, Does someone know what wrong is with this: http://rafb.net/p/skrFPU96.html 'sensors' doesnt work. :( (Core 2 duo e6400, Asus p5b)
[05:15] <Chillyboarder> or is mine listed with extra "82" in front?
[05:15] <agn0stic> gabrie1:what kind of modem do you have? is it internal or external? "lspci -v | less" can give you some information about it, but it will have lots of info about other stuff too. you'd have to scan through it
[05:15] <fogwar> hey guys, when i plug in an external hd, what is the exact location of it so i can mount it? havn't figured it out? would it be /SEAGATE or something?
[05:15] <phanto1> Cant write to partition http://farm1.static.flickr.com/223/521584702_e2d57dd200_o.png how doo I get my user name there?
[05:15] <wols> Chillyboarder: the 82945G is the actual chipname, yes
[05:15] <wols> fogwar: no
[05:15] <kitche> fogwar: dmesg should tell you
[05:15] <Chillyboarder> I thought 915/910? but kay, now to find it.
[05:15] <wols> fogwar: /dev/sda or similar. dmesg will tell
[05:16] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: i'm using an internal modem.... the box says it is intel.. but i dont believe on it... i guess its smartlink
[05:16] <fogwar> kitche: dmesg? my partition viewer isnt visible in admin
[05:16] <agn0stic> gabriel1:
[05:16] <JakeX> buenas_werte: no i didn't get the 2nd one to work.. i see it in lspci, but it doesn't come up

[05:16] <wols> fogwar: it it's automounted: mount
[05:16] <agn0stic> gabrie1: "lspci -v | less" in a terminal. look through that, you should see info about it in there somewhere
[05:17] <fogwar> wols: yeah, but i'm trying to view it in terminal
[05:17] <ward__> does anyone (preferably with building experience) feel like trying to compile gephex? i tried everything (for several days)
[05:17] <wols> fogwar: and that's where you enter "mount". in a terminal
[05:17] <sahil> how do i put songs on my iPod in Ubuntu, i already have gtkpod, but it cant find my iPod video 30 gig
[05:17] <wols> fogwar: same with dmesg

[05:17] <kitche> ward__: I don't have a ubuntu chroot setup or I would
[05:17] <Gabrie1> agn0stic: here it says its motorola
[05:17] <agn0stic> gabrie1: line will start with "network controller" or "ethernet controller"
[05:18] <wols> NET||abuse: sonds like it already works
[05:18] <ward__> kitche, my bad luck :( :-)

[05:18] <buenas_werte> JakeX i guess you just have to have to manually enter it on /etc/network/interfaces and then ifup eth1
[05:18] <NET||abuse> wols: glxinfo | grep direct = direct rendering: No

[05:18] <agn0stic> gabrie1: if you post the output of lspci -v on pastebin.ca and post the link here i'll look at it and see if i can help
[05:18] <wols> NET||abuse: have you tried a program that needs 3D hardware acceleration? eg. tuxracer?
[05:19] <agn0stic> gabrie1: i need to see more than that, and it's too much to paste in here
[05:19] <Gabrie1> ok
[05:19] <ward__> kitche, i don't know the difference
[05:19] <JakeX> buenas_werte: how do i manually ad it? I just specify ip / mask  etc.. in interfaces, how do i get it to assign to eth0/eth1 ?
[05:19] <NET||abuse> i'll try that now
[05:19] <CheshireViking> NET||abuse, have you tried glxgears?
[05:19] <wols> JakeX: ifup eth0
[05:19] <JakeX> ifup eth0 gives me a device not found..
[05:19] <buenas_werte> JakeX: there are some entries on it..make similar copies
[05:19] <NET||abuse> glxgears seems to run ok,,
[05:20] <wols> JakeX: ifconfig -a. do all interfaces show up?
[05:20] <Gabrie1> !postbin
[05:20] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about postbin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:20] <JakeX> my original eth0 (onboard) dissapeared... i had a kernel panic and the damn onboard nic stopped responding..

[05:22] <JakeX> wols: I put in a 2nd realtek network card, that one is showing up BUT it doesn't not show under ifconfig -a
[05:22] <wols> JakeX: until you find the NIC via lspic, ubuntu can't use it. maybe the NIC is borken now?
[05:22] <wols> *lspci

[05:23] <Cavallek> agn0stic, I cant run ethereal because I dont have X installed. Is there something like that which is accessible throught web ?
[05:23] <Tomatix> phanto1, without the <> of course
[05:23] <agn0stic> gabrie1: well, that's part of it. do lspci -v without the | less part, and paste all the output, you might have to scroll up a bit in the terminal to do that.

I get a long dealy during the mount of /usr, but it eventually gets mounted (even if the boot process claims it fails). The NFS server is OK as I have a diskless setup based on debian 4.0 that works well. Do you know any NFS problems in 7.04?

[05:39] <Murrlin> dirs or partitions
[05:39] <agn0stic> gabrie1: i meant http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Hardware-HOWTO/modems.html
[05:40] <agn0stic> gabrie1: that's a good starting point. basically, find an internal modem that's not a win-modem, or do a good bit of headbanging and searching
[05:40] <phanto1> wols:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23269/ I spent 2 h tryng to find a solution. Cood you please help me .
[05:40] <xMorgawr> how do i start a .run file? when i double click it or do ./filename.run it doesn't work, even with sudo, it says "command not found"...
[05:40] <agn0stic> gabrie1: http://www.linmodems.org/ also good. it's really beyond my current level of knowledge
[05:41] <Murrlin> I think you need to set it to executable, xMorg
[05:41] <cornsnap> xMorgawr veryify the right on the file ls -ls
[05:41] <Moduliz0r> hmm
[05:41] <xMorgawr> cornsnap thanks i'll try

[06:11] <tyler_> i do not want to use streamripper because it doesn't have what i'm looking for i want to be able to capture any sound coming from my computer whether it is from the internet or recording from music playing. Audacity or any sound recorder records output sounds but my sound card setup is messed up and i do not know how to fix it. Recording used to work
[06:11] <kitche> jt: I told you that you might have to use the alternate cd
[06:11] <Griz> im currently running off the 7.04 live cd, i tried grub-install --root-directory =/mnt/root /dev/sda, with my / partition mounted at /mnt/root, it said everything went well, but it seems like all it did was put the old menu back, which has the wrong entries in it
[06:11] <tuna-fish> so, I just installed the 2.6.20-16-generic kernel, and lost Nvidia graphics. I swapped to nv, and tried to reinstall, but there seems not to be any nvidia kernel module for the present kernel?
[06:12] <kitche> Griz: ok mount the / again and fix the entries so they are correct
[06:12] <sainzeo> @jt: otherwise try installing the newest version of ubuntu 7.04

[06:13] <Griz> kitche: isnt there a way to just have grub reinstall the entries? it usually does a good job on its own and i dont know how to change them
[06:13] <tuna-fish> so why? is there any announcement of this anywhere?
[06:13] <sahil> how can i get Pidgin on Ubuntu
 If you are trying to install using the live cd try using an alternative cd. I had that problem too and installing the text based way might work
[06:13] <Griz> sahil: its still called gaim, or you can go to getdeb and get a pidgin deb
[06:13] <kitche> sahil: compile it
[06:13] <sahil> kitche don't scare me
[06:14] <Griz> sahil: just get the deb
[06:14] <sahil> from?

[06:14] <kitche> Griz: well grub is smart on first install but after it's installed it's dumb so you have to manually fix the entries yourself

[06:26] <balachmar> kalpik: and found itself to be ok
[06:26] <kalpik> balachmar, where exactly does it ask for the other CD?
[06:26] <balachmar> during installation of packages
[06:26] <soundray> eyessssss: it's not asking you to make a choice. It's giving you a chance to review the packages that will be installed.
[06:26] <ChiefT> how do i extract a specific file within a tarball to a specific directory?
[06:27] <Genecks> I don't see the option to change from 12 hours to 24 hours.
[06:27] <kalpik> balachmar, i suggest you check the MD5, cuz i think its a problem with the CD
[06:27] <martinz___> where is wpa2?
[06:27] <Genecks> I still don't see it, and I've done this twice.
[06:27] <eyessssss> soundray: So, I just click anyone?
[06:27] <cartesian1984> Genecks: when did IRC die?
[06:27] <balachmar> kalpik it is at 85% of the installation

[06:28] <ElllisD> how can i make firestarter run at startup without having to enter the password each time?
[06:28] <croSmiley> soundray: http://www.mindjet.com/eu/
[06:29] <duelboot> ElllisD, the only way I know people will say is not secure...soooooooo I shall not say for now
[06:29] <martinz___> where is wpa2?
[06:29] <soundray> Genecks: look in the Control Panel then. It may be in Language or Locales settings. If you still can't find it, ask in #kubuntu
[06:29] <phanto1> :'(Tried the hall day to get my partition from user root so that I can acess it. I tried mounting it. (BEGINNER) in terminal >  only root can do that is the message
[06:29] <balachmar> kalpik: can I still md5 the cd then?
[06:29] <soundray> croSmiley: try kdissert
[06:29] <ElllisD> duelboot: can i assume the firewall is up without seeing firestarter?
[06:29] <kitche> !sudo | phanto1
[06:29] <ubotu> phanto1: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[06:30] <kalpik> balachmar, you have to check the MD5 of the CD iso you downloaded
[06:30] <duelboot> ElllisD, iptables will run without firestarter
[06:30] <croSmiley> soundray: i'll give it a try, thanks
[06:30] <balachmar> kalpik: I can't even change the cd, because it doesn't open the tray :)
[06:30] <ElllisD> duelboot: tyvm, i can live w/ that
[06:30] <duelboot> ElllisD, firestarter is simply a GUI interface to iptables
[06:30] <kalpik> balachmar, it wont.. just press ctrl-alt-del
[06:30] <ssorg> hi i was wondering what i should install to get php-cgi with mysql  support because i get this error and i think its because i havent got the rifght package installed. "Fatal error: Call to undefined function mysql_connect() in /var/www/process/proc.php on line 12"

[06:35] <fbarcenas> whoops, I dropped out

[06:36] <duelboot> ChiefT, notice the specific/file at the end
[06:36] <dr_willis> kjackson793,  use  'ssh -X' and dont use telnet, if ssh is set right. you dont need to mess with xhost or exporting at all
[06:36] <kitche> tonyr: people complained
[06:36] <fbarcenas> Is there any way to reinstall the desktop effects people?
[06:36] <ChiefT> right ok thx let me try

[06:39] <mage> "nautilus $dir" I mean

[06:46] <fbarcenas> Ubuntu is the distro that is busting out onto the mainstream. I can buy a dell with ubuntu! cool!

[07:00] <idefixx> ubuntulover: the package doesnt do that, grub-update does
[07:01] <Fer> hola
[07:01] <pppoeFR> ok thanks
[07:01] <apollo13> mage, Pelo: I need this at school, and there I won't have ubuntu (the second image is windows, as I need to show a few samba things)
[07:01] <ubuntulover> idefixx: what is grub-update? it's not installed on my system or anything
[07:01] <apollo13> mage: I did not install vmware-tools, should I?
[07:01] <Stormx2> Hey folks. I'm getting sick of firefox and its crashyness/memory usage. Could anyone recommend me another browser?
[07:01] <soundray> !grub | user1, do you want to try this approach
[07:01] <ubotu> user1, do you want to try this approach: grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:01] <mage> apollo13: it might boost the speed of the guests gui
[07:01] <idefixx> ubuntulover: its run when you install a new kernel to update your menu.lst.
[07:01] <Pelo> Stormx2,  opera
[07:01] <apollo13> ok I'll try
[07:01] <idefixx> ubuntulover: take a look at your menu.lst and search for 'kopt=root=UUID='
[07:01] <Pelo> Stormx2,  straight mozilla
[07:02] <user1> thx i try this
[07:02] <Pelo> Stormx2,  check in synaptic for broswer and have fun
[07:02] <ubuntulover> soundray: the blkid.tab is correct
[07:02] <idefixx> ubuntulover: do not uncomment it. just change it. get your uuid with 'vol_id /dev/foo'
[07:02] <soundray> Stormx2: I don't get crashes unless I use too many extensions.
[07:02] <ubuntulover> idefixx: it has a # in front of it - doesn't that mean its not read?
[07:02] <kbrosnan> Pelo: Stormx2 that is SeaMonkey now
[07:02] <Pelo> kbrosnan, what ?
[07:03] <kbrosnan> Pelo: http://mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey
[07:03] <idefixx> ubuntulover: well kind of.. grub-update reads it. that why i said dont uncomment it.
[07:03] <Stormx2> Thanks everyone!

[07:04] <HardDisk> evening.
[07:04] <Chillyboarder> I am running ubuntu, and last night I tried to install back to xp, it showed my fat32 partions gone, and my main systems, NTFS were "Unknown" what has happened and what do I have to do?
[07:04] <kkathman> is it possible to program the mouse wheel to move between desktops in gnome?
[07:04] <nathanv> I had a question wrt to wrapper scripts.. I want to be able to install a package and then have this app run in a certain environment variable... but then when the package is uninstalled, to have the wrapper script not be in effect anymore
[07:04] <_GOLD_> HEY ALL FUCK YOU WITH YOUR FUKING UBUNTU #UBUNTU-FR VAERY SAVAGE PEOPLE I THINK ALL PEOPLE USE UBUNTU IS A SAVAGE TOOO
[07:04] <HardDisk> quickie, what's the closest thing to mirc for linux in terms of interface, usability and esp addons and scripts?
[07:04] <nathanv> HardDisk: xchat?
[07:05] <enry> Eko, what is "play position"?
[07:05] <HardDisk> fair enough
[07:05] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, when you installed ubuntu did you make room on your hdd to install or did you just write over your hdd ?
[07:05] <HardDisk> cause I found the scripts to be a bit outdated
[07:05] <HardDisk> 2006ish
[07:05] <Chillyboarder> write over I think.
[07:05] <Chillyboarder> and hi pelo :)
[07:05] <Eko> enry, in what context?
[07:05] <mage> HardDisk: do you code in mirc?
[07:05] <kkathman> HardDisk,   try kvirc (requires kde tho)
[07:05] <HardDisk> a bit, but not professionally
[07:05] <kkathman> thats the closest Ive seen to mirc
[07:06] <HardDisk> yea I've checked out kvirc, and it does seem the closest
[07:06] <mage> HardDisk: get a copy of 5.61 and run in wine
[07:06] <HardDisk> I just figured there was something that google didn't find :)
[07:06] <mage> 6+ lags
[07:06] <Conhe> !squid
[07:06] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about squid - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:06] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, boot up the ubuntu live cd and in menu > system > admin > gnome partition editor see if you still have a ntfs partiton and /or fat32( aka vfat) , if they are still there you data is safe, if not well ...
[07:06] <kkathman> HardDisk,  try mirc if you dont mind running in in kde
[07:06] <kkathman> sorry kvirc
[07:06] <Chillyboarder> if not?
[07:06] <kkathman> hehe
[07:06] <HardDisk> well mirc does work in wine, I have used it.
[07:06] <onats> is anyone using the suspend function of ubuntu? is it working correctly?
[07:06] <HardDisk> I just figured why not switch to something native.
[07:07] <mage> ah
[07:07] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, if not,  whatever data was on them is gone for good
[07:07] <OlliK> HardDisk: why
[07:07] <Chillyboarder> have to bring to a proffessional?
[07:07] <kkathman> HardDisk,  kvirc is native and provides scripting, etc
[07:07] <demonspork> how do I mount a DVD iso as a DVD drive?
[07:07] <soundray> onats: it depends on your ACPI implementation
[07:07] <Bluetooth> hi all
[07:07] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  a pro won'T help and he will charge you to tell you so
[07:07] <HardDisk> yea I'm testing xchat and kvirc as we speak
[07:07] <Bluetooth> trying to make Skype to work
[07:07] <mage> demonspork: loopback
[07:07] <mage> !loop
[07:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about loop - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:07] <soundray> !mountiso > demonspork, please read the private message
[07:07] <Chillyboarder> i reformat my stuff all the time, i just need to install xp =\
[07:07] <HardDisk> and kvirc runs fine in gnome
[07:07] <kkathman> sure
[07:07] <mage> sure call it mountiso
[07:07] <onats> soundray, could you elaborate on that further?
[07:08] <Bluetooth> when trying to call says Call Failed: Problem With Audio Playback, and http://paste.org.ru/?d5tl6q  in console
[07:08] <HardDisk> Bluetooth what skype problems are you having?
[07:08] <ZCODE> kkathman: mkdir /mnt/iso && mount -o loop myiso.iso /mnt/iso
[07:08] <HardDisk> oh I know that problem
[07:08] <Bluetooth> ^^^
[07:08] <HardDisk> u have to upgrade the skype
[07:08] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, well if you have no data to recover,  that is another story,  still boot up the live cd  go in the partition editor , free up some hdd space and install windows xp in that
[07:08] <Bluetooth> I got latest alpha
[07:08] <kkathman> ZCODE,  ????
[07:08] <onats> soundray, suspend/hibernate doesn't work correctly on my laptop
[07:08] <HardDisk> 1.4.064?
[07:08] <HardDisk> cause I had that problem in 1.3
[07:08] <onats> !ACPI
[07:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acpi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:08] <idefixx> ubuntulover: still there if so.. i allways make that mistake - its update-grub. stupid naming :)
[07:08] <HardDisk> and went to 1.4 alpha
[07:08] <Bluetooth> skype-alpha_staticQT-1.4.0.64
[07:09] <HardDisk> yea
[07:09] <HardDisk> that's it
[07:09] <sadde1> how do i manage my portable usbflash devices?
[07:09] <demonspork> do you think it would be faster to make ISO files of DVDs and then mount the ISO in order to rip the video from the DVDs?
[07:09] <soundray> onats: what are the symptoms
[07:09] <Chillyboarder> pelo: where will partition editor be?
[07:09] <HardDisk> are you using a usb mic?
[07:09] <soundray> demonspork: probably not
[07:09] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, menu > system > admin > gnome partition editor
[07:09] <sadde1> nope, mp3 player
[07:09] <Bluetooth> no
[07:09] <phanto1> kitche:I tried propetie of partition in nautilus as root. It sed Owner : unknown .
[07:09] <onats> soundray, well, first, it tries to 'suspend' and it does this for a really long time... after that, when i open the lid, or press the power button to restore it, it actually boots from start... going back to grub..
[07:09] <joselopez> etrg
[07:10] <Bluetooth> ordinary one
[07:10] <HardDisk> well check your sound settings in skype..
[07:10] <Chillyboarder> doesn't sahow it, will it show it for sure on cd?
[07:10] <HardDisk> if its on Alsa or OSS
[07:10] <Chillyboarder> pelo: ^
[07:10] <demonspork> because I can rip as many dvds at a time as I want but I only have 2 drives, would I be able to copy and mount ISOs fast enough to keep up with 3 or 4 continuous DVD rps?
[07:10] <Bluetooth> it's set to default
[07:10] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  but the best advice I can give you is this,   backup your data in ubuntu,   make two partitions on your hdd,  install  windows on the first,   then install ubuntu on the second and restore your data , taht will be a clean way to do it
[07:10] <ZCODE> kkathman: That was for daemon - sorry
[07:10] <HardDisk> yea change that, and look at your sound options
[07:10] <HardDisk> I had to play with mine till it picked the right one
[07:10] <kkathman> ZCODE,  hehe no problem
[07:11] <Chillyboarder> pelo: what kind of data, i dont care about person files or anything like that?
[07:11] <soundray> onats: Microsoft distributes a compiler for DSDT tables that lets lots of bugs slip through. You can try decompiling your DSDT and recompile it with Intel's iasl. There are instructions on the web.
[07:11] <soundray> !info iasl | onats
[07:11] <ubotu> onats: iasl: Intel ASL compiler/decompiler. In component universe, is optional. Version 20060912-3 (feisty), package size 354 kB, installed size 720 kB
[07:11] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, gparted is not install by default in the installed version ( usualy becuase it is not needed after the installation),   and you can'T work on your current hdd anyway , so boot the live cd and it will be in there
[07:11] <Chillyboarder> personal*
[07:11] <dr_willis> demonspork,  if ya had more then 1 pc - ya could do it faster that way i imagine. The hard drive access will become your bottleneck
[07:11] <HardDisk> and Im using an audigy 2 S/c with a usb mic from a webcam, which still worked fine after I changed the default settings
[07:11] <Chillyboarder> ok
[07:11] <SilverFox> et
[07:11] <Bluetooth> I tried number 0 half day ago, it worked but now it doesn't
[07:11] <onats> soundray, ok will look into that.. thanks!
[07:11] <Chillyboarder> since it'll be running off the cd, I will be able to refomat at same time?
[07:12] <Chillyboarder> reformat*
[07:12] <HardDisk> wait there was a link I had about the skype sound issue
[07:12] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  ifyou don't have any thing important on hyour computer that you need to save like accounting or emails or anything, , just whippe clean and start over
[07:12] <HardDisk> brb let me get you the link
[07:12] <HyperDevil> when does thunderbird 2 come as an ubuntu package?
[07:12] <soundray> onats: it's a bit involved... I learned a lot when I did it on mine. Didn't help a lot in the end, though :(
[07:12] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, yes you will be able to reformat your hdd
[07:12] <Bluetooth> strange, it worked again with nr. 0
[07:12] <Chillyboarder> ok, just I tried that with xp disk and file systems were changed, so couldn't
[07:12] <Bluetooth> but for how long? :(
[07:12] <HardDisk> well
[07:12] <soundray> onats: be sure to look up any installation reports that may exist for your laptop: tuxmobil.org
[07:12] <HardDisk> this is a skype issue
[07:12] <demonspork> I am running 2 SATA 3.0GB seperately 7200RPM each and 2.4GHz core 2 duo with 2 GB ram, do you think it could handle four or more thoggen sessions ripping DVDs?
[07:13] <lkthomas-home> guys, can I use signal terminal server to connect diff linux machine ?
[07:13] <HardDisk> that's why I'm planning to move to openwengo
[07:13] <tritium> onats: start here first:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam, and look for your model
[07:13] <demonspork> **2 SATA 3.0GBps**
[07:13] <HardDisk> or something like it
[07:13] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  split the hdd in two , make the second part ext3 and leave the first part  blank,  install xp on the first part,   then install ubuntu on the ext3 part,
[07:13] <HardDisk> skype just doesn't develop it's linux port fast enough or care enough
[07:13] <onats> soundray, ok thanks...
[07:13] <Chillyboarder> I do not ubuntu though.
[07:13] <HyperDevil> when does thunderbird 2 come as an ubuntu package?
[07:13] <Chillyboarder> want*
[07:13] <onats> tritium, ok, will also look into that...
[07:13] <Bluetooth> that's bad
[07:14] <HardDisk> yea
[07:14] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  then just install win xp from scratch , never mind the live cd ,  just overwrite the whole hdd
[07:14] <HardDisk> if you go to their forums you'll see
[07:14] <demonspork> I can't get my microphone working in ubuntu
[07:14] <HardDisk> because their main focus is windows mobile and pc users
[07:14] <Bluetooth> hmmm that sucks
[07:14] <Chillyboarder> ] I tried that, I put xp cd in, and tried to install on my main partition, usually an NTFS one, but was "unknown" couldn't...
[07:14] <soundray> HardDisk: the Windows Mobile port is grotty, too
[07:14] <Pelo> demonspork, check the forum for information no one seems to be around that can help you
[07:15] <HardDisk> tell me about it soundray
[07:15] <matthew> how do I find out my drives UUID?
[07:15] <HardDisk> that's why I'm going to move to openwengo or something else
[07:15] <HardDisk> but for some reason
[07:15] <HardDisk> I can't register on wengo
[07:15] <HardDisk> I think my ip range is blocked or something
[07:15] <ZCODE> matthew: Use the blkid command if it's installed
[07:15] <Bluetooth> what's  openwengo?
[07:15] <soundray> HardDisk: I had to disable the default codec in the registry before it would work at all
[07:16] <HardDisk> I keep getting an "error" on their site
[07:16] <matthew> ZCODE: thanks
[07:16] <ZCODE> matterteck: Or use tune2fs, reisertune, etc...
[07:16] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, ok then boot up the live cd , remove all partitions , and then install xp
[07:16] <soundray> HardDisk: I'm much happier with jajah
[07:16] <HardDisk> Bluetooth, openwengo is an opensource version like skype
[07:16] <ZCODE> matthew: I meant dumpe2fs
[07:16] <HardDisk> jajah haven't tried that
[07:16] <Chillyboarder> pelo: ugh, but the partitions were there for a reason wernt they?
[07:16] <agentjk> Hi, all: after installing ubuntu feisty, my ati driver in XP isn't working properly, any suggestions
[07:16] <HardDisk> Bluetooth, you might like openwengo, its a VOIP too
[07:16] <HardDisk> but opensource
[07:17] <ZCODE> matthew: Use tune2fs to change the UUID
[07:17] <HardDisk> and works on nix just fine
[07:17] <matthew> ZCODE: thanks, but i just wanted to know what they were.  blkid worked.
[07:17] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, you said you donT' need them anymore , you just want a fresh install of xp on your system,  there is no reason for the other partitons,  just the one ntfs will do
[07:17] <Bluetooth> HardDisk is it possible to contact Skyep users there?
[07:17] <soundray> HardDisk: you use your normal phone with jajah. --- You should maybe ask the openwengo people about your registration issues
[07:18] <Pelo> Chillyboarder, you do realise this is no longer an ubuntu issue,  if you want help reinstalling windows you might want to go and ask in ##windows
[07:18] <Chillyboarder> pelo: if I use live cd, and clear partitions, can I make the main one an NTFS then? I do not have an NTFS partition right now
[07:18] <HardDisk> Bluetooth, no
[07:18] <Chillyboarder> oh, ok
[07:18] <lockd> are there any good gnome/gtk bittorrent clients?
[07:18] <Piggyg1> Does skype work on UBUNTU?
[07:18] <sainzeo> @agentjk: try downloading the most up to date driver from www.ati.com and install that
[07:18] <Bluetooth> sad
[07:18] <soundray> !skype | Piggyg1
[07:18] <ubotu> Piggyg1: To install Skype on Ubuntu, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype - To record on Skype, check: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SkypeRecordingHowto
[07:18] <HardDisk> soundray well I found that other people posted on their forum with the same problems, they havent replied to those people
[07:18] <sainzeo> @agentjk: remember to remove the original one first though
[07:18] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  i fyou clear all the partitions,  when you install xp it will make it's own
[07:18] <Chillyboarder> ok, thanks
[07:18] <HardDisk> lockd, deluge, azureus, even utorrent works nicely under wine
[07:19] <Bluetooth> ok thanx for help
[07:19] <idefixx> Chillyboarder: you can use the windows cd to delete the old and create a new partition.
[07:19] <HardDisk> brb im switching irc clients
[07:19] <HardDisk> I dont like xchat :)
[07:19] <lockd> HardDisk: need to try everything but utorrent - defeats the purpose, as ktorrent is just as good
[07:19] <Chillyboarder> pelo: this ubuntu is not very customizable, it has kiddy/big/basic icons, and drivers are hard to come by. that is why I am switching back, after only 1 day.
[07:19] <sainzeo> anyone find problems with Pidgin's IRC client?
[07:19] <agentjk> okay, does anyone know of an ati channel?
[07:19] <Chillyboarder> ok, thanks
[07:19] <kkathman> sainzeo,  not at all
[07:20] <matthew> when I move things to my vfat drive from the command line, i get these two weird errors.  one says, "mv: preserving times for `filename': Operation not permitted", the other says "mv: setting permissions for `filename': Operation not permitted".  Neither of these actually prevent the move, they are just annoying messages.  How do I fix this? Here are my fstab options: "vfat     auto,users,exec,uid=1000,owner,gid=users   0  0"
[07:20] <HardDisk> there we go
[07:20] <HardDisk> much better
[07:20] <sainzeo> i definitely like it better than xchat
[07:20] <andy_> I have two gamepads hooked up and I want to use them for MAME, how do I find out, which /dev/input my gamepad is?
[07:20] <lockd> Chillyboarder: your problem is drivers, probably
[07:20] <Chillyboarder> mainly yea
[07:20] <Pelo> Chillyboarder,  all linux is very customizable,  you just need to play around with it
[07:20] <lockd> Chillyboarder: that's a problem with all *nix
[07:20] <Chillyboarder> exactly, and I'm tired of it.
[07:20] <lockd> Chillyboarder: Kubuntu (KDE) is easier to customize
[07:21] <Pelo> lockd,  if he wants to run back to xp let him
[07:21] <lockd> Chillyboarder: gnome is for those with the comp power and like terminal
[07:21] <Chillyboarder> k, maybe I'll try it once recieve my disk I ordered.
[07:21] <Chillyboarder> well terminal meh yea, and I got meh comp power, 1gb ram does enough.
[07:21] <SWATcashTheProfe> if my monitor says signal out of range while trying to boot that's a video drive problem right?
[07:21] <kkathman> HardDisk,  be sure you have the right version of Xchat
[07:21] <lockd> Pelo: personally, I just use kqemu, works fine for XP
[07:22] <HardDisk> alright fixed
[07:22] <HardDisk> so anyway
[07:22] <Chillyboarder> well ima head over to #windows then, thanks for your help pelo and lockd
[07:22] <Pelo> SWATcashTheProfe, it,s a horizsync problem,  edit xorg.conf and chagne the end value to someting higher
[07:22] <SWATcashTheProfe> alright thanks
[07:22] <kkathman> HardDisk,  there are actually two versions - I use 2.80 and there is some other version thats cut down
[07:22] <tank>  /server irc.irchighway.net
[07:23] <frandavid100> hiya
[07:23] <frandavid100> for some reason, external hard drives are mounted with read-only permissions only
[07:23] <frandavid100> how could I fix that?
[07:23] <elmargol> !grub
[07:23] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[07:24] <Pelo> frandavid100, chmod  755 /path/
[07:24] <frandavid100> they seem to belong to root, is there any way that I can mount them and stay the owner?
[07:24] <idefixx> frandavid100: probably because they are ntfs...
[07:24] <frandavid100> nope, ext3
[07:25] <Pelo> later
[07:25] <ubuntulover> are there any ubuntu scripts / packages to reconfigure that would regenerate an fstab file?
[07:25] <ubuntulover>  with new uuid's, etc?
[07:25] <PreZGN> BTW - I just wanted to say thankyou to the Ubuntu dev who finally gave me the option to NOT install grub into the MBR with the latest Ubuntu install :)
[07:26] <idefixx> frandavid100: in that case 'sudo chown -R user:group /path/*' where user and group are the owner and group you want.
[07:26] <HardDisk> a
[07:26] <sainzeo> @PreZGN: i agree
[07:26] <HardDisk> or install automatix
[07:26] <mwe_> !automatix
[07:26] <idefixx> frandavid100: be carefull to use the right path!
[07:26] <ubotu> Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[07:26] <sainzeo> !WorksForMe
[07:26] <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.
[07:26] <HardDisk> really? cause there is a new version
[07:27] <mwe_> HardDisk: really!
[07:27] <HardDisk> oh well.
[07:27] <PreZGN> I also like that Beryl works on Ubuntu with very little fuss :)
[07:27] <frandavid100> seems to have worked, thanks idefixx
[07:27] <idefixx> frandavid100: take a look at this as well.
[07:28] <frandavid100> but will it still belong to me when I unmount it and mount it again?
[07:28] <idefixx> !permission > frandavid100
[07:28] <mwe_> HardDisk: It may work *in most cases*. that's just not good enough to recommend it
[07:28] <markus_> i use proftpd and apache2. files uploaded via ftp are owned by ftpuser:ftpgroup. files created/uploaded using php are owned by www-data. is there a way to automatically chown those files to ftpuser?
[07:28] <idefixx> frandavid100: yes permissions are permanent.
[07:28] <Plankton> hi
[07:28] <frandavid100> that's great

[07:29] <mwe_> does anyone know if it's possible to get the applications menu to load faster? The first time I use it, it takes up to 15 seconds before it shows!
[07:29] <Stormx2> I need a throwaway email address. Any suggestions?
[07:30] <tsdgeos> hi, any idea which package provides gtk-doc?
[07:30] <Fathefner> my ubuntu wont let me update it comes up with partial update
[07:30] <mwe_> Fathefner: you need to post the errors from sudo apt-get dist-upgrade on paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[07:31] <Assassin`> for ati- are there any different drivers / other than the fglrx driver?
[07:31] <HardDisk> Stormx2: hotmail, yahoo don't work for ya?
[07:31] <mwe_> Assassin`: the is the oss driver that doesn't supportd 3d accelleration
[07:31] <JC_Denton_> is there a shut down shortcut
[07:31] <ikonia> Assassin`: there are the ones built into xorg
[07:31] <Stormx2> HardDisk: 1 time use.
[07:32] <Assassin`> i c
[07:32] <HardDisk> well does it matter, just use it and don't log into it again
[07:32] <mwe_> JC_Denton_: upper right corner in a default ubuntu install
[07:32] <Assassin`> when was the last release of fglrx
[07:32] <JC_Denton_> mwe, shortcut key combination i mean, like there is to lock the machine
[07:32] <Assassin`> and can it be tweaked?
[07:32] <mwe_> JC_Denton_: I don't think so, by default
[07:32] <JC_Denton_> Can it be created?
[07:33] <Assassin`> i know you can get fglrx-control
[07:33] <mwe_> JC_Denton_: yes
[07:33] <mwe_> JC_Denton_: it's somewhat involved, though.
[07:33] <AboynamedGoo> hello, good day!
[07:33] <demonspork> does anybody know how to fix the black window bug in ubuntu Feisty without restarting X entirely
[07:34] <JC_Denton_> mwe, would you care to elaborate? Or possibly there is a guide...
[07:35] <HardDisk> meh stupid jajah
[07:35] <HardDisk> doesn't work for my country, so it's useless
[07:35] <mwe_> JC_Denton_: well first you have to install the program that let's you create custom keyboard shortcuts. unfortunately I can't recall the name right now
[07:35] <KimmoKe> ahoy. wonder what i might be missing, trying to install ruby gem fcgi but i get an error about mkmf
[07:35] <KimmoKe> ruby1.8-dev has been installed
[07:36] <KimmoKe> and there is mkmf.rb available
[07:36] <KimmoKe> Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary libraries and/or headers.  Check the mkmf.log file for blahblah"
[07:36] <JC_Denton_> mwe, ok thanx
[07:38] <Cosmo___> I have never bought a LCD monitor befor, what kind of stats should I be looking for in say a 20" model?
[07:38] <neverblue> hmm
[07:38] <neverblue> what are you using it for?
[07:38] <mwe_> JC_Denton_: after you'd sudo visudo and allow your user to sudo shutdown -h now without a password. then create a shortcut for that command
[07:38] <HardDisk> well mainly dead pixel return policy, finishing quality and contrast ratio
[07:38] <Cosmo___> neverblue: was your question for me?
[07:39] <neverblue> Cosmo___, correct
[07:39] <idefixx> JC_Denton_: you can assign custom keybinds with 'gconf-editor' its in /metacity/global_keybindings - i think.
[07:39] <Cosmo___> mainly for gaming, web surfing and watching video
[07:39] <lou247> 20.1 widescreen go to a higher resolution than say a 20" widescreen
[07:39] <idefixx> JC_Denton_: then what mwe_ said.
[07:39] <jericho> anyone available to help with a wifi issue?
[07:39] <HardDisk> for example the Benq 20.1" wide is an excellent product
[07:40] <JC_Denton_> idefixx mwe thank u both
[07:40] <Sh3r1ff> !wifi | jericho
[07:40] <ubotu> jericho: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:40] <HardDisk> I've got the Benq FP222W a 22" model, not expensive and great for games and da moviez
[07:40] <kupo> howdy chan, O
[07:40] <neverblue> Cosmo___, http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=18705&vpn=LS20HAWCBQ/XAA&manufacture=Samsung
[07:40] <neverblue> thats the 20" LCD widescreen I have
[07:40] <HardDisk> Samsung is the best imo
[07:40] <jericho> i've gone thru the docs... it's a very strange problem
[07:40] <HardDisk> but some countries the samsung is mucho $$$
[07:40] <kupo> I'm having trouble getting my optiplex GX110 on board sound working, I'm running fiesty
[07:41] <jericho> i can associate with the access point but cannot communicate thru it
[07:41] <HardDisk> here the samsung is almost twice as expensive as the benq
[07:41] <ciaron> do the open source ati drivers have 3d accell yet?
[07:41] <zero_> help! there is any way to open ports?
[07:42] <neverblue> Cosmo___, or you can pay a bit more and grab this one... http://www.ncix.com/products/index.php?sku=22782&vpn=LS20MEWSFV/XAA&manufacture=Samsung
[07:42] <HardDisk> zero_: from router/
[07:42] <neverblue> there is a starting point for you atleast
[07:42] <HardDisk> ?
[07:43] <HardDisk> but you have to check your local area on the prices
[07:43] <HardDisk> like I said, different countries the price ranges differ
[07:43] <Nalleman> Hi, anyone here who have tried the simulator flight gear?
[07:43] <mhr> hi, how can i stop eng spell check on ubuntu 7.04???
[07:43] <zero_> HardDisk: if i want to open a port for an application, the only way it's through the router?
[07:43] <HardDisk> Nalleman, yea but I couldn't figure out how to takeoff :D
[07:44] <HardDisk> not only way, but your router may have it closed.
[07:44] <suppaman> hello
[07:44] <HardDisk> portforward.com
[07:44] <HardDisk> choose your router model, and app and it will show you how to open ports.
[07:44] <Nalleman> HardDisk, :) I can take of, but the aeroplane acts strange. it tend to fly to the left all the time...
[07:44] <Nalleman> take off
[07:44] <zero_> HardDisk: and ubuntu have all ports open?
[07:45] <HardDisk> zero, that I cannot say.
[07:45] <zero_> HardDisk: o well im not sure what i'm asking for :S
[07:45] <SudoBash> hey how would you got about reading plates from a HD so you can recover your data? Remove the plates but do you have to have a special device to read them or can your carefully insert it into a working HD in place of it's plates?
[07:45] <logixoul> Yo. Today my Feisty updated the kernel and then I, uh, pulled the power plug |-( . Next thing I know, GRUB says "	Error 22: No such partition	". Help really appreciated :)
[07:45] <neverblue> lol
[07:45] <HardDisk> Sudo, you can insert it, but make sure your in a clean environment
[07:45] <HardDisk> what you can do
[07:45] <HardDisk> is make a box
[07:45] <HardDisk> with circular holes and seal gloves in them
[07:46] <HardDisk> like an incubator
[07:46] <stefg> Had #ubuntu turned into #hardware finially?
[07:46] <zero_> HardDisk: how can i check  the state of my ports?
[07:46] <instabin> Ahh back to the wounderfull world and helpfull people of ubuntu
[07:46] <HardDisk> lol
[07:46] <HardDisk> make another hole and attach a vacuum cleaner to it
[07:46] <SudoBash> no just#hardware wasnt answering
[07:46] <HardDisk> to suck out all the dust in the box
[07:46] <instabin> HardDisk was that LOL at me?
[07:46] <suppaman> a friend of mine installed ubuntu, now it says it doesn't have stdlib headers, is there a one-package to install developing stuff ?
[07:46] <HardDisk> yea insta :)
[07:47] <instabin> ;)
[07:47] <stefg> SudoBash: oh, so have a legitimate reason to bother #ubuntu instead, i c
[07:47] <HardDisk> SudoBash: got those instructions I wrote ya?
[07:47] <zero_> there's any way to check the status op my ports?
[07:47] <zero_> of***
[07:47] <HardDisk> the top of the box make it from plexi glass.
[07:47] <SudoBash> yeah
[07:47] <SudoBash> awesome
[07:47] <neverblue> zero_, network tools
[07:47] <HardDisk> and there you go you have your own vacuum sealed dust free zone
[07:47] <zero_> neverblue: cool thx
[07:48] <neverblue> np
[07:48] <radioman> hey
[07:48] <SudoBash> plexiglass
[07:48] <Nalleman> HardDisk, well, whats really weird is that i got like 8 fps and really creepy sound. Do you experience the same thing?
[07:48] <stefg> !build | suppaman
[07:48] <instabin> Whats the vacum sealed dust free zone for!?!?!?! And how do we make it?
[07:48] <ubotu> suppaman: 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!)
[07:48] <mwe_> JC_Denton_: xbindkeys, it was
[07:48] <HardDisk> plexiglass - the clear pastic type used in case mods e.t.c.
[07:48] <Fathefner> my ubuntu wont let me update it comes up with partial update http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23298/
[07:48] <frojnd> hey guys.. This is wery weird. When I play avi file in VLC the sound gets out of the sync.. And that all the sudden and only in VLC player. I tryed to reboot the system, I remove and than install VLC and the sound is still out of the sync and again just in VLC player :S Any ideas how to get rid of that problem. Or is there any other way to unistall VLC and install it again??
[07:48] <HardDisk> Nalleman, no, did you install the nvidie/ati drivers?
[07:48] <SudoBash> im going to build one
[07:49] <Nalleman> HardDisk, no, i got integrated intel graphics
[07:49] <HardDisk> Fathefner: you have to install the GPG keys
[07:49] <instabin> HardDisk: Whats the vacum sealed dust free zone for!?!?!?! And how do we make it?
[07:49] <instabin> Sounds like fun for harddrives
[07:49] <HardDisk> Nalleman, well did you read the ubuntuguide, for the intel graphics thingy?
[07:49] <Fathefner> HardDisk, idk what those r so i might not have
[07:49] <Nalleman> ubuntguide.org?
[07:49] <suppaman> stefg: thx so it's build-essentials
[07:50] <HardDisk> Fathefner: some repositories you have to install a "key" to be able to download from them
[07:50] <Fathefner> ok
[07:50] <lou247> build-essential
[07:50] <Fathefner> then i think i need those
[07:50] <HardDisk> Nalleman: ubuntuguide.org ya
[07:50] <SudoBash> they just need to make a device that creates the clean room and reads the drive for you
[07:50] <stefg> Fathefner: i wonder how apt comes to the funny conclusion to uninstall upstart and try to go back to sysv-init. Something is seriously wrong
[07:50] <SudoBash> automated
[07:50] <instabin> who here likes iptables?
[07:50] <HardDisk> Fathefner: check the site you got the repository from, it will have something like wget http.... add - etc.
[07:51] <Nalleman> HardDisk, nope, have not checked that but i might as well give it a try
[07:51] <wols> instabin: ask your real question
[07:51] <craigbass1976> Where are the fonts that things like GIMP and OO are pulling from?  /usr/share/fonts/?  There's a bunch in that folder that are not showing up in either app, and I' curious as to why.
[07:51] <instabin> wols... I dont really have a probem with them but had some questions on the order of things
[07:52] <aMMuNi1> this might not be a good place to ask, but is there a way to strech a launcher to a specific size and not manually using the little squares?
[07:52] <wols> instabin: you still haven't asked your real question
[07:52] <instabin> if i have a drop all all on the input chain before then end of the chain shouldnt it drop all of the incomming packets?
[07:53] <lockd> hey, is it possible to use qemu on a real hard disk?
[07:53] <HardDisk> gosh im hungry
[07:53] <HardDisk> haven't eaten all day
[07:53] <HardDisk> almost 9pm
[07:53] <Agg[Away] > hello, all.  How can i check that my currently installed packages are the same as the versions on the net?  My box had failed to reboot this morning although I had not told it to, and there was no mention of reboot in the syslogs.
[07:53] <HardDisk> let me see what I'm gonna eat
[07:53] <Agg[Away] > so i suspect perhaps tampering.
[07:53] <lockd> or does it have to be a disk that's physically separate from the one Linux is on, or is it totally impossible?
[07:54] <purpzey> Aggrav8d: Did you install the new updates automatically?
[07:54] <SudoBash> Taking away the moments that make up the dull day....
[07:54] <Aggrav8d> purpzey - no.  i just did an update/upgrade a few minutes ago
[07:54] <instabin> wols: if i have a drop all all on the input chain before then end of the chain shouldnt it drop all of the incomming packets?
[07:55] <logixoul> Guys, today my Feisty updated the kernel but then I pulled the power plug. Now GRUB says "Error 22: No such partition" and doesn't boot Kubuntu. Would you please help?
[07:55] <kFj> hi.. im getting this error when connecting an 2.5" external hdd to my usb port: "you are not privileged to mount this volume". how can i fix this?
[07:55] <purpzey> Aggrav8d: The new kernel has been causing some problems for people. Just load the old kernel using grub.
[07:55] <SudoBash> kFJ use sudo mount
[07:55] <wols> instabin: that's what policy DROP is for no?
[07:55] <wols> but yes it should
[07:55] <HardDisk> logixoul: ouch.
[07:55] <purpzey> logixoul: I don't know if it helps, but see what I just told Aggrav8ed.
[07:56] <instabin> wols but is not droping all of my incomming packets....
[07:56] <HardDisk> 20.16?
[07:56] <HardDisk> or 21.3?
[07:56] <Aggrav8d> purpzey - i'm still running 2.6.17-10-server, is that the "troublesome" version?
[07:56] <rolnyzx> is it causing problems? I just installed it
[07:56] <Aggrav8d> it ran fine for 153 days before this happened.
[07:56] <chowdah> lockd: yeah, you can use a real disk, just specify /dev/hda1 (or whatever) as the hard drive that qemu will use
[07:56] <HardDisk> strange
[07:56] <purpzey> Aggrav8d: Oh...My mitake then, this wasn't a server kernel that was causing the issue.
[07:56] <anthrax> hello all, im having this problem and i need someone to help me out fix it?! invoke-rc.d: initscript clvm, action "start" failed.
[07:56] <anthrax> dpkg: error processing clvm (--configure):
[07:56] <anthrax>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[07:56] <anthrax> dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of redhat-cluster-suite:
[07:56] <wols> instabin: #iptbales
[07:56] <HardDisk> well just boot into grub [ESC]  upon boot
[07:56] <wols> instabin: #iptables
[07:57] <HardDisk> and load older kernel
[07:57] <instabin> wols: Thanks
[07:57] <ikonia> anthrax: you've installed but not configured clvm
[07:57] <HardDisk> redhat-cluster...
[07:57] <purpzey> Aggrav8d: I think it is 2.6.16...or something that was causing the error...hang on, I'll check to make sure.
[07:57] <aMMuNi1> is there a way to strech a launcher to a specific size and not manually using the little squares?
[07:57] <zero_> where can i find the configuration for mysql?
[07:57] <ikonia> anthrax: remove redhat-cluster-suit
[07:57] <Aggrav8d> does anyone know where i would go to learn good administration habits?  i've stumbled through all this by myself so far and i'm sure I have lots to learn.
[07:57] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: what ?
[07:57] <SudoBash> Home... Home again..... I like to be here when I cann......
[07:57] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: /etc/my.cnf
[07:57] <anthrax> ikonia: how do i remove it?
[07:57] <fredl> okay... question... why will the nvidia driver not load anymore after the recent kernel upgrade??
[07:57] <anthrax> :)
[07:58] <ikonia> anthrax: remove it through synaptic
[07:58] <anthrax> a ok
[07:58] <SudoBash> when i come home... home and tired... its good to warm my bones beside the fire
[07:58] <logixoul> purpzey: well, now that my kernel is updated how can I make GRUB use it for booting? I cannot downgrade it. o_o
[07:58] <Aggrav8d> ikonia - there is no my.cnf
[07:58] <logixoul> s/use it/use the old one/
[07:58] <HardDisk> fredl: you have to recompile it again
[07:58] <HardDisk> easiest way to unload nvidia
[07:58] <HardDisk> and enable restricted drivers again
[07:58] <cerealkiller219> yay no more DRM from apple XD!!!!
[07:58] <HardDisk> after the kernel update
[07:58] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: /etc/mysql/my.cnf
[07:58] <purpzey> Aggrav8d: Yeah...2.6.20-16-generic...so, you're good.
[07:59] <fredl> well...
[07:59] <purpzey> Aggrav8d: on that issue.
[07:59] <anthrax> wow i really have ti get the Ubuntu dvd
[07:59] <HardDisk> if you cant get a gui, dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:59] <fredl> how to do that HardDisk ? I kinda have no browser right now, could you help?
[07:59] <purpzey> HardDisk: Can't you just run the old kernel from grub?
[07:59] <SudoBash> the LiveDVD install in 20 minutes for me
[07:59] <JC_Denton_> what is the program name of the dialog showing you the shutdown options?
[08:00] <heffo> what would people suggest to replace mspaint? i use gimp but i like having a simple drawing tool like mspaint was
[08:00] <HardDisk> purp, yea but this way he can fix his gui from his current kernel
[08:00] <lnx> hey what is VMware?
[08:00] <lnx> is it like crossover?
[08:00] <HardDisk> no
[08:00] <kFj> SudoBash: now i get "you dont have the premision to view the content of sdc1"
[08:00] <logixoul> purpzey: should I make GRUB boot into "initrd.img-2.6.20-15-generic"?
[08:00] <SudoBash> Great Gig in the Sky is the best song
[08:00] <ikonia> lnx: this is ubuntu support. google vmware
[08:00] <fredl> hang on brb
[08:00] <purpzey> logixoul: Yes.
[08:00] <ikonia> SudoBash: this is ubuntu support
[08:00] <lnx> I did but it just lists all the products
[08:00] <ikonia> lnx: so read about it
[08:00] <purpzey> HardDisk: Are they not going to repair the new kernel?
[08:00] <HardDisk> so read about it
[08:01] <HardDisk> purp, its not about repairing, its about how you install the kernel
[08:01] <lnx> I was hoping for a helpful soul that could just give me a quick word or two about what it is
[08:01] <HardDisk> u have to use the restricted-drivers too
[08:01] <lnx> is it like qemu?
[08:01] <lnx> or like wine
[08:01] <ikonia> lnx: this is ubuntu support please stop asking
[08:01] <lnx> haha
[08:01] <lnx> u suck
[08:01] <HardDisk> lnx, prove it.
[08:01] <ikonia> lnx: if you don't like it, don't join the channel
[08:01] <lnx> tards...im gona go to the linux chat then!
[08:01] <ikonia> lnx: and don't be rude, the ubuntu code of conduct requests every be friendly
[08:01] <purpzey> HardDisk: Interesting....It worked fine on my laptop, I have been really hesitant to do it on my desktop b/c of all the problems..b/c I have a dual-boot over there.
[08:02] <HardDisk> purp, but your laptop is an intel gfx based right?
[08:02] <Aggrav8d> ikonia - why are you telling me to look at my mysql config?  how will that teach me better administration habits?
[08:02] <HardDisk> the laptop then doesnt require the restricted drivers if your intel gfx based
[08:02] <logixoul> purpzey: ok, just to be sure: I chroot into the installed partition, edit its %imenu.lst%i so it says %iinitrd.img-2.6.20-15-generic%i and then I run %bgrub-install --recheck (hd0)%b, right?
[08:02] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: whats the problem with your config
[08:02] <logixoul> er...
[08:02] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: the default is normally fine unless you have a reason to change it
[08:02] <svartrev> hi all, anybody feel like wrapping their minds around a quick question ?
[08:02] <purpzey> logixoul: Get someone else to verify that. . .
[08:03] <wols> logixoul: no need to rerun grub install. editing menu.lst should be all you need
[08:03] <neverblue> is .nano_history suppose to be owned by root?
[08:03] <purpzey> HardDisk: The desktop is nvidia, that will have this problem?
[08:03] <wols> logixoul: and we don't have funny stuff like italics and bold in irc
[08:03] <fredl> HardDisk - sorry had to go give my son a goodnight kiss. Anyway, I tried the dpkg-reconfigure thing but what's that going to help me? that's not going to recompile my driver, and why is that neccesary anyway?
[08:03] <wols> so stop using %anything
[08:03] <JC_Denton_> what is the program name of the dialog showing you the shutdown options?
[08:03] <HardDisk> no problems, just to be on the safe side, before you upgrade your kernel, disable restricted drivers, when you boot to new kernel, then enable it again.
[08:03] <HardDisk> thats the nooby safeway
[08:03] <fredl> HardDisk - I'd imagine that nvidia drivers are pretty commonly used these days, so why isn't this upgrade TESTED anyway?
[08:04] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: its a pannel in gnome
[08:04] <HardDisk> it does work
[08:04] <EADG> neverblue: I had that error a couple weeks ago, just chown it to fix.
[08:04] <Aggrav8d> ikonia - i never said there was a problem.  i said i wanted to be a better admin.
[08:04] <purpzey> HardDisk: What's the command to disable?
[08:04] <HardDisk> its just HOW you install it.
[08:04] <logixoul> wols: but it 	works	, doesn't it? :) anyway, thanks, I never knew I didn't need to run grub-install
[08:04] <wols> fredl: new kernel -> new nvidia drivers. or rather a recompile. and it seems ubuntu devs made an error with the last kenrel update
[08:04] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: how do you know you need better ? the default is fine for most senarios
[08:04] <neverblue> EADG, its there for a reason maybe...?
[08:04] <fredl> HardDisk I installed it from the upgrade tool.
[08:04] <HardDisk> its in the gui under system/adminsitration/restricted drivers
[08:04] <wols> logixoul: not it does NOT work. that's the point
[08:04] <Aggrav8d> people always have room to improve.
[08:04] <fredl> wols - Hmm that seems to be happening more and more often lately.
[08:04] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: not if there is no reason to
[08:05] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: anyway, this is for ubuntu support discussion
[08:05] <logixoul> wols: ah, it works in my client :( k, sorry
[08:05] <EADG> neverblue: I think maybe from sudo nano... but not 100% sure.
[08:05] <Aggrav8d> i keep saying "i need to improve" and you keep hearing "the system needs to improve".  understand the difference?
[08:05] <JC_Denton_> ikonia, any way to invoke it?
[08:05] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: then you need to read up on it
[08:05] <ikonia> JC_Denton_: I'm sure there is a call for it, but I don't know it
[08:05] <Phuz> Anyone here write PHP in Ubuntu?  If so, what program do you use?
[08:06] <HardDisk> im using the latest ubuntu kernel 16 generic with the nvidia drivers it does work and works fine
[08:06] <ikonia> Phuz: vi or emacs
[08:06] <zero_> Phuz: here
[08:06] <Phuz> emacs?
[08:06] <zero_> Phuz: gPHPedit
[08:06] <HardDisk> its just to get it to work the noob way, disable the restricted drivers, install the new kernel, reboot, renable the restricted drivers
[08:06] <fredl> HardDisk well you didn't have to recompile anything then?
[08:06] <purpzey> HardDisk: What's the command to disable nvidia drivers, and then to reinstall them? Also, I hear people have been having straight up boot errors.
[08:06] <Quintin> Phuz: vi
[08:06] <HardDisk> if you dont do that, you wont get a GUI and an X server gfx error
[08:06] <Aggrav8d> anyways, back to my original query:  how can i compare my installed kernel/packages to the same versions on official servers so that I can be sure there are no rootkits on my machine?  i'd like a simple way to do md5 sum checks
[08:06] <Phuz> I'm looking for something non-terminal
[08:06] <ikonia> purpzey: use synaptic to remove them if you want
[08:07] <Quintin> purpzey: Just change the "Driver" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:07] <Phuz> so, vi and vim are out of the question
[08:07] <JC_Denton_> ikonia, ok, thanks. Maybe anyone else knows how to
[08:07] <HardDisk> yea thats what I was saying
[08:07] <zero_> Phuz: gPHPEdit it is not terminal
[08:07] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: official servers ?
[08:07] <HardDisk> in system/administration/restricted drivers
[08:07] <JC_Denton_> (How to call that gnome shutdown panel that is)
[08:07] <Phuz> zero_, Alright, is it Gnome only?
[08:07] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: only use trusted repos and you won't get root kits
[08:07] <purpzey> HardDisk: They can be re-enabled the same way?
[08:07] <Phuz> Because I'm using KDE
[08:07] <HardDisk> yes
[08:07] <zero_> Phuz: no is not
[08:07] <logixoul> thanks all
[08:07] <sirenr> hy
[08:07] <HardDisk> its only a click :)
[08:07] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: there is also a binary called "chkrootkit" that will run a scan of your system to give you an "idea" if there is a root kit
[08:07] <Phuz> Cool, I'll give it a shot then
[08:07] <zero_> Phuz: ok
[08:08] <Phuz> Thanks
[08:08] <VPOf> Hey,  when I try to install ubuntu, it can't detect my SATA RAID0 setup (it detects the drives as seperate SCSI devices). openSUSE had no such issues.
[08:08] <HardDisk> I was an opensuse user for years
[08:08] <zero_> Phuz: you're welcome
[08:08] <Aggrav8d> ikonia - i do use trusted.  but now i suspect someone may have hacked me and altered the syslogs.  if they are good they will have altered ps, ls, etc. so that I can't even tell if they're doing something nasty.
[08:08] <HardDisk> till I did the switch to ubuntu 2 months ago
[08:08] <Aggrav8d> thus i need a way to confirm i have valid versions of each program.
[08:08] <VPOf> Anyone any ideas?
[08:08] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: then re-install if your worried
[08:08] <fredl> looks like it doesn't have anything to do with recompiling anything....
[08:08] <fredl> seems like it's just fubar dependencies.
[08:08] <ikonia> Aggrav8d: if you think you have been rootkited - then nothing is valid any more
[08:08] <Kalisto> how do i add a user to an already existing home dir? ie i have created a home dir and added not yet existing user "bob" chown -R /home/bob and chgrp -R /home/bob, when i then try to create bob no bashrc or anything shows up in bobs dir?
[08:09] <VPOf> Is this a known issue?
[08:09] <HardDisk> opensuse 10.2 is great in KDE, but to be honest ubuntu's KDE isnt that nice, gnome's much better suited for it, imo.
[08:09] <\\`ired> so.... I'm having a problem with 7.04 install. I found a post that showed me how to get past the SATA issue with modprobe piix..... Now after it gets done scanning it hangs at the "How do you want to partition the disk?" without ever showing me any options for me to click on. Anyone know why this would freeze? and how to get around it?
[08:09] <wols> Aggrav8d: if you had a rootkit, then the only thing you can do is reinstall. nothing else
[08:09] <Quintin> Kalisto: Just copy the files from /etc/skel ?
[08:09] <eternalswd> I'm following alsa's troubleshooting wiki at http://alsa.opensrc.org/TroubleShooting and I need to unload oss driver and load the alsa driver, but I'm not sure how to do that.
[08:09] <ikonia> Kalisto: because you have already created the home dir nothing gets added automaticlly
[08:09] <Kalisto> ikonia, ok how do i add it manually?
[08:09] <Quintin> eternalswd: /join #alsa
[08:09] <VPOf> Anyone at all?
[08:09] <thekidrio> how do I set the timezone data?
[08:09] <ikonia> Kalisto: copy the data out of /etc/skel
[08:10] <wols> eternalswd: rmmod to unload kernel modules
[08:10] <\\`ired> Anyone have any clues about my problem?
[08:10] <thekidrio> is it tzdata? or tz?
[08:10] <Lilacor> VPOf: did you search for RAID + ubuntu install?
[08:10] <Quintin> Kalisto: also, read the man pages for adduser, useradd, usermod, and /etc/passwd
[08:10] <kitsune> is anybody else incredibly frustrated with firefox right now? I can't veiw https sites and I've been working on this problem for 3 days now!
[08:10] <Pantern> I am having a hard time with the package management in Ubuntu Breezer. It's been a while since I've used this distro.. when trying to apt get something I get the following warning: Could not find info about http://archive.ubuntu.com breezy-updates/main Packages (/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_breezy-updates_main_binary-i386_Packages) - the list of source packakges - stat (2 No such file or directory). What todo?
[08:10] <svartrev> I want to set up a system on a smallish partition, and grow it if necessary to another partition on another hdd... any bright ideas on how best to do that ?
[08:10] <HardDisk> kitsune: hmmm
[08:10] <HardDisk> strange
[08:10] <wols> Pantern: breezy is kinda old, very old. probably not supported anymore
[08:11] <Quintin> svartrev: cp -ra will move everything.  then just make it boot somehow
[08:11] <wols> !breezy
[08:11] <ubotu> breezy is the third release of Ubuntu. Version 5.10, codename "Breezy Badger".  Upgrading to !dapper : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DapperUpgrades
[08:11] <Lilacor> svartrev: setup a system on a small partition...and then grow it using parted later if need be
[08:11] <svartrev> Quintin: yeah, I don't wanna just copy to a bigger system
[08:11] <HardDisk> hi barbie.
[08:11] <Lilacor> kitsune: what error do you encounter?
[08:11] <VPOf> Should I try an older version of ubuntu or something?
[08:11] <Quintin> svartrev: that's kind of what you just said
[08:11] <svartrev> Lilacor: how would I grow it to another hdd ?
[08:12] <Lilacor> VPOf: no, you should probably search the web
[08:12] <Pantern> wols: will upgrading to !dapper help me with the packet management struggle?
[08:12] <Pantern> !dapper
[08:12] <ubotu> dapper is the 4th release of Ubuntu.  Version 6.06 LTS, codename "Dapper Drake".
[08:12] <Lilacor> svartrev: you can use LVM and make the HDD part of your volume group
[08:12] <kitsune> harddisk: http://pastebin.ca/523179
[08:12] <HardDisk> huh?
[08:12] <Quintin> VPOf: what RAID card do you have?
[08:12] <HardDisk> why you pasting me that
[08:12] <svartrev> Quintin: no, no, I mean I want to set up a dual-boot, but I only got a small partition for now. Later I kinda want to add, not relocate, some space as I get it
[08:13] <HardDisk> ah i c
[08:13] <ikonia> svartrev: can't really do that
[08:13] <kitsune> harddisk: I installed mozilla-psm through synaptic, but it doesn't apply to firefox - just mozilla
[08:13] <HardDisk> letmme check
[08:13] <Lilacor> kitsune: is this just one website?
[08:13] <VPOf> It's a built-in nForce4 SATA chip.
[08:13] <ikonia> VPOf: don't use fakeraid
[08:13] <Quintin> VPOf: That's software raid then
[08:13] <wols> VPOf: software raid then
[08:13] <Quintin> there's your problem right there!
[08:13] <ikonia> Quintin: not really "software" but fakeraid
[08:13] <VPOf> software? Is it not hardware based?
[08:13] <kitsune> lilacor: Nope. GMail, addons.mozilla.org, and my school portal to name a few
[08:13] <wols> VPOf: don't use raid that depends on that chip. but pure ubuntu/linux raid
[08:13] <Quintin> no.  it's software raid with bios configuration
[08:13] <ikonia> VPOf: no, not true hardware
[08:13] <wols> VPOf: no it's not. pretty much no raid on mobo is
[08:14] <Lilacor> kitsune: what version of ubuntu?
[08:14] <kitsune> lilacor: Feisty Fawn
[08:14] <apollo13> mage: installing vmware-tools didn't help either
[08:14] <wols> except really expensive workstationa dnd serverboards for several hundred $
[08:14] <HardDisk> kitsune, theres something wrong with your firefox, cause i log on https daily
[08:14] <Lilacor> kitsune: what kind of installation did you perform?
[08:14] <\\`ired> Anyone know why Ubuntu Desktop 7.04 Freezes at "How do you want to partition this disk?". It doesn't pop up any options to choose just sits with my mouse thinking.
[08:14] <ikonia> HardDisk: using a proxy or borked ssl are the only real options
[08:14] <Quintin> svartrev: You can just mount the other disk somewhere on the tree
[08:14] <Lilacor> \\`ired: did you try to use the command line installation instead?
[08:14] <HardDisk> hmm
[08:14] <VPOf> I don't get it. OpenSUSE was able to detect my windows partition (SATA RAID0 based) and shrink it and install. Quintin, what do I need to do?
[08:15] <\\`ired> Lilacor: No it took me a couple hours to download the desktop install disk
[08:15] <ikonia> VPOf: looks like that support is not built into the ubuntu kernel
[08:15] <kitsune> harddisk: Everything was working great yesterday. I didn't install or change anything, but when I went to open an https site later in the day, I got that message
[08:15] <HardDisk> VP cause it prolly used a software raid tool to do that
[08:15] <GazzaK> \\`ired, how much ram does that machine have?
[08:15] <ikonia> kitsune: what is the message
[08:15] <svartrev> Lilacor: LVM is something I really have avoided till now. Am I right that I can add a hdd and just make the virtual partition grow ?
[08:15] <\\`ired> and I had to pass some special arguements for it to get past boot on my SATA
[08:15] <kitsune> lilacor: I tried re-installing firefox and even down-grading it
[08:15] <HardDisk> http://pastebin.ca/523179 thats his message
[08:15] <\\`ired> GazzaK: 2GB DDR2 Ram
[08:15] <scoobydoo28139> installing flash to 64 bit ubuntu
[08:15] <ikonia> kitsune: where did you install firefox from
[08:15] <kitsune> ikonia: http://pastebin.ca/523179
[08:15] <ikonia> scoobydoo28139: not straight forward
[08:15] <Lilacor> kitsune: this is not normal. I have installed ubuntu without issue and am using https daily also
[08:15] <dtrump> yo
[08:15] <kitsune> ikonia: packages.ubuntu.com
[08:15] <LOLZebra> Hi
[08:16] <gh0zt> hey
[08:16] <VPOf> so, no-go as far as my system and ubuntu are concerned?
[08:16] <HardDisk> what happens if you remove it completely and reinstall again?
[08:16] <GazzaK> \\`ired, what special arguments?
[08:16] <Lilacor> kitsune: have you tried to download the regular tarball from www.mozilla.com and run that?
[08:16] <gh0zt> that's a secret
[08:16] <LOLZebra> that's a secret
[08:16] <scoobydoo28139> ok, how to install flash player in ubuntu 64bit edition?
[08:16] <dtrump> interest
[08:16] <kitsune> lilacor: yep
[08:16] <ikonia> scoobydoo28139: search the wiki - you use a 32bit chroot.
[08:16] <Lilacor> kitsune: and you still encounter the same issue?
[08:16] <basic> has anyone here successfully gotten their Marvell Yukon 88E8056 Gigabit Ethernet Controller to work in ubuntu fiesty/7.04?
[08:16] <ikonia> scoobydoo28139: its a lot of hassle
[08:16] <\\`ired> GazzaK: Had to add break=top to the f6 at boot then modprobe piix so it would recognize my SATA drive.
[08:16] <kitsune> lilacor: Like I said, it was running like a champ. this is very strange. I've been using it for about 2 yrs now
[08:16] <scoobydoo28139> ok ikonia
[08:17] <ikonia> kitsune: are you using a proxy
[08:17] <Lilacor> svartrev: you can add a HDD to your volume group and it acts as if it were one HDD
[08:17] <Rio79> you can see a network drive through nautilus, but where is it located through the terminal?
[08:17] <scoobydoo28139> so is chat
[08:17] <HardDisk> basic, ubuntu detects it on the laptop
[08:17] <kitsune> ikonia: no
[08:17] <scoobydoo28139> :)
[08:17] <ikonia> kitsune: something doesn't just "break" on its own.
[08:17] <BlueBird22> is linux good for me if i  msn irc video . i punk my nose on many things.         like  web developement.  ms office. ms front page.   vidoe editing  . a little hacking ,   designing , graphics... many many more.............
[08:17] <fredl> HardDisk - recompiling the nvidia driver is not neccesary.
[08:17] <Lilacor> kitsune: do you have openssl installed?
[08:17] <ikonia> kitsune: really thing, what has changed ?
[08:17] <kitsune> ikonia: It's crazy. It is a common issue to. It's all over the internet
[08:17] <ikonia> thing
[08:17] <svartrev> Quintin: if I just mount the partition, then I can store stuff there, but can I install apps there? I know if I compile from source you can specify where they get installed, but as a package ?
[08:17] <ikonia> thik
[08:17] <Lilacor> BlueBird22: you do what?
[08:18] <basic> HardDisk, but does it work? the sky2 module gets rx errors and drops the connection after about 10 minutes
[08:18] <kitsune> lilacor: one sec...
[08:18] <Iceman_B> aw
[08:18] <Rio79> how do you get to a networke drive from the terminal?
[08:18] <HardDisk> fredl: all I said for a noob who wants to update to 16 generic, to disable nvidia restricted first. update kernel then renable it again
[08:18] <Quintin> svartrev: You could use symlinks or such.
[08:18] <basic> HardDisk, what kernel are you using?
[08:18] <Iceman_B> dont you just hate it, windows requires a reboot, I turn my back for a second
[08:18] <BlueBird22> Lilacor what.? i just told  you
[08:18] <Iceman_B> bam, Ubuntu :P
[08:18] <fredl> HardDisk, I found out it's just a DUMB dependency problem and the linux-restricted modules wasn't upgraded
[08:18] <HardDisk> basic, so far ya, on the laptop 15generic
[08:18] <scoobydoo28139> maybe i should have installed 32 bit edition
[08:18] <Lilacor> BlueBird22: what you said didn't make sense to me
[08:18] <basic> huh ok
[08:18] <kitsune> ikonia: i'm sorry? what do you mean?
[08:18] <fredl> HardDisk, that's also not a good solution to 'disable' the restricted modules.
[08:18] <GazzaK> \\`ired, anything to do with Bug #106864
[08:18] <Quintin> svartrev: for example, a server I have is low on space on / , so I have /opt symlinked to a place on my homedir
[08:18] <ikonia> kitsune: think about whats changed
[08:18] <BlueBird22> Lilacor those are things i do.
[08:19] <HardDisk> fredl: I know its not the best solution, but its a working solution for beginners dont you think?
[08:19] <Lilacor> BlueBird22: what do you mean by a little hacking?
[08:19] <ikonia> scoobydoo28139: sounds like a good idea
[08:19] <HKJGN> hmmm, well, somehow, XGL exploded
[08:19] <HKJGN> x.x
[08:19] <HardDisk> HKJGN: how many pieces?
[08:19] <fredl> HardDisk, nope, not really. Better thing to suggest is to tell people to apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`
[08:19] <svartrev> Lilacor: that sounds pretty much what I want, thx. I've avoided it till now because we've had drives at work that needed to come out of one machine, and then we couldn't boot up from them in another machine. partitions were so much simpler to recover from. Is that really a prob with LVM, or am I just not aware of the correct procedure ?
[08:19] <scoobydoo28139> ikonia: how do i get rid of ubuntu on my drivew and start over?
[08:19] <HKJGN> HardDisk: alot
[08:19] <kitsune> ikonia: Nothing. I was there the entire time. I was browsing an https site (school). I closed out firefox. Never left the chair. About 20 min later I get that error
[08:19] <VPOf> Well, so far openSUSE is the only one to install successfully. PCLinuxOS refused to boot in LiveCD mode as soon it detected my RAID setup. Ubuntu booted fine but it does not recognize my RAID. Any other distro suggestions?
[08:19] <ikonia> scoobydoo28139: put the cd in - boot and click install
[08:20] <HardDisk> fredl: makes sense.  your right.
[08:20] <ikonia> kitsune: has anything changed on your school network
[08:20] <fredl> n/p.
[08:20] <scoobydoo28139> ikonia will it over write?
[08:20] <Dragostini> can anyone tell me if Ubuntu is compatible with an ati radeon 9200 video card?
[08:20] <ikonia> kitsune: try repoting it to your school admin
[08:20] <ikonia> scoobydoo28139: yes
[08:20] <HKJGN> HardDisk: im getting bad monitor all over the place, and all i did was an update and a restart
[08:20] <ikonia> Dragostini: yes
[08:20] <HKJGN> havent messed with XGL or Beryl
[08:20] <scoobydoo28139> ikonia: cool thanks
[08:20] <HKJGN> so now its just all exploded
[08:20] <HardDisk> what exactly did you update?
[08:20] <Heptofite> i ask this question, just want a short answer, nothing too elaborate: is there anything better than the VESA driver for using VIA/S3G graphics chipsets in ubuntu 7?
[08:20] <kitsune> ikonia: Already talked to them. they didn't change anything. I think it's safe to say it's firefox because I can't log into gmail or ebay
[08:20] <scoobydoo28139> ikonia: my other operating system will be ok rite?
[08:20] <svartrev> Quintin: is I symlink I surely gotta move the whole mount point ? ie I can't have 5 mb on the first hdd, and only 3 on the new one, and add that, I gotta have 7 or 8 free and then move the orig 5, right ?
[08:20] <HardDisk> Hep, no.
[08:21] <Dragostini> then can you explain to me why when i installed it previously, it froze on the loading screen then took me to busy box?
[08:21] <BlueBird22> Lilacor ignore the hacking this
[08:21] <ikonia> kitsune: thats not safe to say its fireox
[08:21] <HKJGN> HardDisk: i unno, whatever the computer told me to, i wasnt paying attention XD
[08:21] <BlueBird22> thing
[08:21] <ikonia> scoobydoo28139: if you don't mess it up
[08:21] <paulinster> Hi I am looking to install Dapper on a supermicro system whic has the latest 3ware sata card, the 9650SE-16ML. However at kernel itnitialisation system freeze and I can't do anything. Is there any way I can proceed to the installation and force a disk/sata controller driver to be load prior to this stage as I suspect this is the cause.
[08:21] <fetale> can anybody help me with my small problem?
[08:21] <Heptofite> second question: does vesa suck as much as it used to?
[08:21] <VPOf> I mean, I don't want to go back to suse. It detected my RAID, but everything else, including audio and video support were flaky. Any other distros?
[08:21] <kitsune> ikonia: all of my certificates are gone too
[08:21] <ikonia> Heptofite: no
[08:21] <fetale> I'm trying to output a command into a file
[08:21] <dooglus> fetale: >
[08:21] <GazzaK> \\`ired, did that help?
[08:21] <HardDisk> HKJGN: lovely :) well you can reconfigure your gfx again in terminal, and then see what the problem is, OR if you have an older kernel installed boot into that from grub.
[08:21] <ikonia> kitsune: something has changed then
[08:21] <kitsune> lilacor: yep openssl installed
[08:21] <Heptofite> so the vesa in 7 > vesa in 5?
[08:21] <VPOf> mandriva maybe?
[08:22] <fetale> but I keep getting a no file error
[08:22] <dooglus> fetale: wotcha typin' man?
[08:22] <kitsune> refresh my memory. How do you pull up the system log again?
[08:22] <HardDisk> Heag: yes.
[08:22] <ikonia> fetale: what is the command you are doing
[08:22] <HardDisk> oops, Heptofite
[08:22] <ikonia> kitsune: view the syslog
[08:22] <HKJGN> HardDisk: nope, its not my xorg.conf file, already looked at that, and i dont have an older kernel
[08:22] <Heptofite> so its not as jerky?
[08:22] <scoobydoo28139> ikonia:be back soon
[08:22] <Dragostini> if ubuntu supports my video card...then can you explain to me why when i installed it previously, it froze on the loading screen then took me to busy box?
[08:22] <Dragostini> im now running a different distro, but would seriously like to get ubuntu working
[08:22] <fetale> ikonia: mysql testdb <create.sql
[08:22] <HardDisk> HKJGN: virtualbox? it has been known to do wierd things if not compiled
[08:23] <dooglus> fetale: >
[08:23] <fetale> shouldn't be a problem, right?
[08:23] <dooglus> fetale: not >
[08:23] <HKJGN> HardDisk: i think its satan, trying to drive me to rip my hair out and become an axe murderer
[08:23] <ikonia> fetale: thats not piping out - thats reading in
[08:23] <dooglus> fetale: um, not <
[08:23] <ikonia> Dragostini: I can't explain that, but if it got to busy box, its probably nothing to do with your video card
[08:23] <fetale> oh jesus...
[08:23] <\\`ired> GazzaK: I've done the work around listed by admin and it gets to the installer. It just never gets to where I can partition. It scans the file system and freezes while it tries to transistion to screen 4 of 7
[08:23] <HKJGN> HardDisk: ill just stay in Gnome, cant play games in XGL anyway
[08:23] <dooglus> fetale: <create.sql means 'input from create.sql' not 'output to create.sql'
[08:23] <HardDisk> HKJGN: ah yes Satan, he is a naughty fella
[08:23] <Dragostini> ikonia, k ill just try reformatting and installing again
[08:23] <Dragostini> i might be back soon ;)
[08:23] <Lilacor> BlueBird22: if you're not into working with the command line... go buy yourself a mac
[08:23] <Heptofite> can i expect less twitchiness using the newer vesa driver?
[08:23] <HardDisk> and you might not..
[08:24] <ikonia> Heptofite: try it
[08:24] <HardDisk> Heptofite: no guaruntees, try.

[08:24] <fetale> ikonia: that did it, yea
[08:24] <ikonia> good
[08:24] <Lilacor> kitsune: try 'apt-get build-dep mozilla-firefox
[08:24] <HardDisk> thekidrio: porn dvds?
[08:24] <GazzaK> but I would try the alt cd is I had any problems with a live cd \\`ired
[08:24] <ikonia> bati update-server ?
[08:24] <kitsune> ikoonia: yesterday's has already been erased...
[08:24] <thekidrio> HardDisk, heh only if you think Brock Samson is pron quality
[08:24] <HardDisk> lol
[08:24] <bati> i want update from 6.12 to 7.04
[08:25] <kitsune> lilacor: ok. one min. lemme see...
[08:25] <ikonia> kitsune:something is very wrong then
[08:25] <\\`ired> k well I'm just gonna go back to knoppix then... This is rediculous the old 6.10 worked fine but I don't like it much.
[08:25] <ikonia> bati: well - you have to go 6.06 6.10 and then 7.04
[08:25] <paulinster> Hi I am looking to install Dapper on a supermicro system whic has the latest 3ware sata card, the 9650SE-16ML. However at kernel itnitialisation system freeze and I can't do anything. Is there any way I can proceed to the installation and force a disk/sata controller driver to be load prior to this stage as I suspect this is the cause.
[08:25] <bati> Failed to fetch http://kubuntu.org/packag...386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found
[08:25] <thekidrio> !upgrade | bati
[08:25] <thekidrio> no upgrade eh
[08:25] <ikonia> paulinster: try the alternate cd image
[08:25] <ubotu> bati: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[08:25] <ikonia> bati: show me the full url
[08:25] <paulinster> ikonia: What do you mean the alternate cd image ?
[08:25] <ikonia> bati: the full url thats failing
[08:26] <bati> http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-latest/dists/edgy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz
[08:26] <ikonia> paulinster: on ubuntu.com there is an alternate install image
[08:26] <HardDisk> for lesser systems
[08:26] <bati> but i made 3 times update from this version
[08:26] <bati> to 7.04
[08:26] <Paul_UK> hey all, can someone tell me how i can set the dhcp server to serve from a specific network card (eth1) and not the default, which is eth0.
[08:26] <bati> i dont know why problems now
[08:27] <ikonia> Paul_UK: one moment - I did it by altering the init script but there is a more official way
[08:27] <Paul_UK> thanks ikonia, i can wait
[08:27] <GazzaK> paulinster, http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-alternate-i386.iso for example
[08:27] <ferronica> is there any option for WEB CAM in GAIM (yahoo) ?
[08:27] <purpzey> HardDisk: It appears from the forums that the new kernel creates, or at least, makes occur a decent amount more problems than just the restricted driver.
[08:27] <PriceChild> ferronica, nope sorry
[08:27] <paulinster> ikonia: Ok ... didn't see that, I'll check .. it should support that sata card at bootup ?
[08:27] <kitsune> ikonia: nevermind. found yesterday's
[08:27] <bati> sry
[08:28] <bati> i dont wanna make
[08:28] <ikonia> paulinster: how do you know your sata card is an issue
[08:28] <HKJGN> ARRRGHH!
[08:28] <bati> new copy of cd..
[08:28] <ferronica> PriceChild: any other way
[08:28] <Peres> dddsgdfgdfg
[08:28] <kitsune> ikonia: still, this is happening to A LOT of people. I've been through a lot of forums doing research
[08:28] <bati> 1st i dont have clean cd
[08:28] <HardDisk> purpzey: thats why most people stick to the 15 generic one
[08:28] <HKJGN> -.- now my pc doesnt have 3d acceleration..
[08:28] <purpzey> HardDisk: I guess, what I am asking is. Is there a reason I *should* install it, given that there could be problems?
[08:28] <ikonia> kitsune: something has changed
[08:28] <bati> 2nd i always downloand with bad md5sums
[08:28] <HKJGN> what did that update do?
[08:28] <navets> !ssh
[08:28] <PriceChild> ferronica, not that I know of sorry
[08:28] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[08:28] <HardDisk> purpzey: theres an old saying, if it aint broke dont fix it
[08:28] <paulinster> gazzak: Thank .. but I am actually looking more closely for the server / LTS edition .. I am on the site at the moment
[08:28] <ferronica> PriceChild: ok
[08:28] <purpzey> HKJGN: Just boot to the old kernel.
[08:29] <purpzey> HardDisk: I like that, you should get a patent...; )
[08:29] <HKJGN> purpzey: didnt upgrade my kernel
[08:29] <HardDisk> ahahahah
[08:29] <Kalisto> is there a way i can run the user admin mask from commandline to see if anything is written to stdout?
[08:29] <bati> so, anybody can tell me what i have to do with update to 7.04?
[08:29] <Peres> nooo..Why!!! why is my menu.lst altered after an update? Ubuntu shouldn't mess with it!!
[08:29] <ikonia> Paul_UK: just looking - won't take me long, its just not obvious
[08:29] <PriceChild> bati, you want to update from edgy to feisty?
[08:29] <ikonia> bati: read the message from the bot you've been given 5 times
[08:29] <Paul_UK> iknonia, no worries
[08:29] <anthrax> ikonia: ok i removed the cluster, but now im having this: invoke-rc.d: initscript clvm, action "start" failed.
[08:29] <anthrax> dpkg: error processing clvm (--configure):
[08:29] <anthrax>  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 3
[08:29] <anthrax> Errors were encountered while processing:
[08:29] <anthrax>  clvm
[08:29] <bati> i have 6.12
[08:29] <purpzey> HKJGN: You said it occurs after an update...there is an upgraded kernel in the new recent updates.
[08:29] <ikonia> bati: you've been told 6.0.6 - 6.10 7.04 s the ay to go
[08:30] <anthrax> shall i remove that too?
[08:30] <HardDisk> aye
[08:30] <ikonia> anthrax: now remove clvm
[08:30] <paulinster> ikonia: Not sure at 100% yet, but since the system itself is bit more exotic than an hp and that the sata controller out since not so long .. I wonder if it supported by default at the installation unsless I would specify the driver
[08:30] <ciaron> how do i reset my x.org to the distro version?
[08:30] <ikonia> anthrax: yup
[08:30] <Kalisto> Peres, because it probably added a new kernel in?
[08:30] <bati> how i can check my version?
[08:30] <anthrax> ok
[08:30] <HKJGN> purpzey: well crap
[08:30] <Kjellviz> someone that can help out with UVC driver installation, or tell me what channel to join to get help?
[08:30] <ciaron> or how do i reset my xorg.conf to the fglrx default
[08:30] <HKJGN> purpzey: how i mine boot to old kernel?
[08:30] <purpzey> HKJGN: Just select the old kernel from grub
[08:30] <HKJGN> ok
[08:30] <Peres> Kalisto, i understand that, but why doesn't it add an item in the menu.lst?
[08:30] <HardDisk> or modify it, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[08:30] <bati> mhm, how i can check my ver. of ubuntu?
[08:31] <Kalisto> Peres, you mean only append instead of rewriting the whole thing?
[08:31] <PriceChild> bati, lsb_release -a
[08:31] <txwikinger> lsb_release -a
[08:31] <Peres> Kalisto, yes that is what i mean
[08:31] <HardDisk> bati, winver ;)
[08:31] <HardDisk> haahah
[08:31] <svartrev> Lilacor: how does LVM work, at the partition level ? ie do I say I want to use LVM for the /opt partition, or do I make the disk use LVM and make partitions under LVM ?
[08:31] <Kalisto> Peres, don't know ;)
[08:31] <zabin> hey how can i determine the mount point of my dvd burner?
[08:31] <bati> yea 6.10
[08:31] <bati> sry ;p
[08:32] <HardDisk> mario party, sounds nice
[08:32] <iqon> is it common for a package to overwrite gcc libs?
[08:32] <HardDisk> is that for the wii?
[08:32] <zabin> how can i determine where my dvd-burner is mounted?
[08:32] <Lilacor> svartrev: LVM is a abstraction layer
[08:32] <ikonia> Paul_UK: /etc/default/dhcp-server
[08:32] <bati> :/
[08:32] <HardDisk> zabin: /media/
[08:32] <purpzey> HardDisk: Yeah, just dropped today...I am like a 4 year old.
[08:32] <Paul_UK> thanks ikonia
[08:32] <kitsune> lilacor: unfortunately, it didn't work
[08:32] <ikonia> Paul_UK: no problem
[08:32] <chris-a> hi i have a firefox related question
[08:32] <svartrev> Lilacor: yeah, but at what level, under partitions, or over them ?
[08:32] <dooglus> how do I access the SDcard reader on my laptop?
[08:32] <HardDisk> :)
[08:33] <chris-a> everytime i open firefow now  it stay for aminute a minute then closes itself
[08:33] <chris-a> firefox sorry
[08:33] <Lilacor> svartrev: what that means is that you have volume groups and you add disks to those volume groups and then you can create partitions underneath those volume groups
[08:33] <Kalisto> chris-a, are you on windows?
[08:33] <chris-a> nah ubuntu breezy
[08:33] <Lilacor> kitsune: backup and nuke from orbit, it's the only way to be sure
[08:34] <Kalisto> chris-a, do apt-get reinstll firefox
[08:34] <Lilacor> chris-a: did you try to run it from the command line?
[08:34] <kitsune> lilacore: huh?
[08:34] <HKJGN> there we go
[08:34] <chris-a>  kalisto: will try
[08:34] <Lilacor> kitsune: your system sounds like it's hosed
[08:34] <purpzey> HardDisk: Let me ask you a question actually, last night I was trying to help a friend configure a wifi card using ndiswrapper...We had the driver installed, but ndiswrapper wouldn't see the hardware...Someone said that ndiswrapper was looking the wrong place...that /etc/modutils should match /lib/modules...any idea what that meant, or how I'd fix that problem?
[08:34] <yiga1> I am rather irritated at Evolution.  I want to use gvim, my favorite editor, to compose messages for my mail but I like a nice GUI environment to read my mail.  Does anyone know of an application that will let me do this.  I remember being happy with Claws-gtk but only problem was that it turns all my folders to mh which is rather esoteric.
[08:34] <HardDisk> HKJGN: so what was the problem then?
[08:34] <yaser_> where can i find help on scp?
[08:34] <HKJGN> im not dogging on Ubuntu, but why make a new kernel if it forces your PC to explode?
[08:34] <chris-a> lilacor: nah i havn't try it yet
[08:34] <Lilacor> kitsune: actually have you examined your dmesg or system messages?
[08:34] <HardDisk> purpzey: unfortunately no I don't/
[08:34] <Lilacor> chris-a: you usually get a lot more diagnostic info if you run it from the CLI
[08:34] <HardDisk> but...
[08:35] <kitsune> lilacor: no...not yet. hehe...how do you view that again?
[08:35] <yaser_> where can i find help on scp?
[08:35] <Kalisto> HKJGN, you can go with kernel 1.0 if that makes you feel better
[08:35] <Lilacor> kitsune: dmesg ..../var/log/messages
[08:35] <svartrev> Lilacor: ah, ok, so I could have one disk with a vol group, make my home, root and opt partitions, then later add another partion on another disk to the group (or do I have to add the whole disk?) and what, I got more space to allocate to the partitions, so I would need to grow a partition ?
[08:35] <yiga1> yaser_: man scp
[08:35] <JC_Denton_> ctrl +f now seems to have hijacked my firefox search
[08:35] <anthrax> ikonia:  when i remove it it says to me this: E: clvm: subprocess pre-removal script returned error exit status 1
[08:35] <chris-a> lilacor: how do i go about it  i'm sort of new
[08:35] <wouterix> Someone know how to use gtk patches ?
[08:35] <bati> so
[08:35] <HKJGN> Kalisto: lol, ok ok, you got a point
[08:35] <bati> anybody help?
[08:35] <yaser_> yiga1, jeje
[08:35] <ikonia> anthrax: check he dpkg log file
[08:35] <bati> this msg if i want update to 7.04
[08:35] <Kjellviz> can someone guide me on how to install the UVC driver ?
[08:35] <bati> Failed to fetch http://kubuntu.org/packages/kde-latest/dists/edgy/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz 404 Not Found
[08:35] <chris-a> i know hwo to install and thing and might now how to do this but just wanna make sure
[08:35] <yiga1> yaser_: what do you want to do with scp?
[08:35] <JC_Denton_> xterm  now seems to have hijacked my firefox search shortcut (ctrl+f)
[08:35] <Lilacor> chris-a: just a word of warning, if you're not comfortable with the CLI then linux probably isn't for you yet.
[08:36] <HardDisk> purpzey: tried this, http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Modems_.2F_Network
[08:36] <Lilacor> chris-a: just open up a terminal window and run mozilla-firefox
[08:36] <yaser_> yiga1, the most simple thing but something is not working
[08:36] <chris-a> no ive used it for the upgrade and to install several several packages.
[08:36] <yiga1> yaser_: for instance? copy a folder from local to server?
[08:36] <HKJGN> -doesnt know what CLI is >.>-
[08:36] <wouterix> I need gtk patches for the thema OS X
[08:36] <HKJGN> lol
[08:36] <Paul_UK> hey all, i've got a new installation of ubuntu server, dhcp3 service doesnt start up, the dhcp server is set to eth1.  nothing shows up in /var/log/messages, where else can i look to troubleshoot this?
[08:36] <chris-a> got to remeber to type names lol
[08:36] <yaser_> yiga1, yea. could yuo check my line
[08:37] <uda> hai
[08:37] <yiga1> yaser_: of course
[08:37] <Peres> paul_uk, dmesg ?
[08:37] <HardDisk> yo purpzey
[08:37] <yaser_> yiga1, scp $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa.pub medea7.augercac.auger.org.ar:/home2/yaser/id_dsa.pub
[08:37] <uda> MAKASAR
[08:37] <purpzey> HardDisk: Ya?
[08:37] <ikonia> Paul_UK: how do you know it doesn't startup
[08:38] <HKJGN> oooh, hehe
[08:38] <HardDisk> you tried that link?
[08:38] <Kjellviz> anyone ? =\
[08:38] <HardDisk> purpzey: http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#Modems_.2F_Network
[08:38] <ikonia> Peres: doesn't show start logs
[08:38] <reanjr> Hello, I'm trying to connect to a WPA network and am having problems.  I need to open the network manager app from GNOME.  I am not actually running GNOME and need to know what app this thing opens.  Anyone know?
[08:38] <HKJGN> Command Line Interface
[08:38] <yaser_> yiga1, it asks for password and every thing seems to be perfect, but it doesnt copy a thing
[08:38] <HKJGN> i just call it a terminal :P
[08:38] <dooglus> yaser_: you're missing a "/.ssh" from the target line
[08:38] <yiga1> yaser_: you need to specify a user for instance scp $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa.pub user@medea7.augercac.auger.org.ar:/home2/yaser/id_dsa.pub ?
[08:38] <wouterix> Someone know about gtk patches ?
[08:38] <Paul_UK> ikonia: because it lists the services when it starts up and says [FAILED]  next to dhcp3
[08:38] <ikonia> wouterix: just ask
[08:38] <HardDisk> HKJGN: I call it the black void of orders.
[08:38] <chris-a> khjgn: whats happening
[08:38] <purpzey> HardDisk: Yeah, I am looking at it...I mean, these are the steps we followed...That wiki is based off of a thread we were using....I just have to figure out to to tell ndiswrapper where the card is.
[08:38] <Peres> thanks ikonia, (it was said with question mark :) )
[08:38] <yaser_> yiga1, the user is the same, anyway i have tried what you say and it is the same
[08:38] <HKJGN> HardDisk: really, i call it alot of names, none i can mention here
[08:38] <HardDisk> hmm
[08:38] <daxxar> What's the "correct" way of having a WLAN card that uses WPA and should associate with a list of different SSIDs, based on which one is available? (I.e. a school and a home network)
[08:39] <chris-a> hkjgn: lol
[08:39] <dooglus> yaser_: you don't need to specify the username if it's the same as the one you're currently using
[08:39] <Paul_UK> Peres, well dmesg showed up nothing
[08:39] <kitsune> lilacor: while i'm sifting through the logs, here is a similiar post https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/90376
[08:39] <wouterix> ikonia: I need gtk patches for special things of the os x thema... but i have installed all the .deb files and I don't know what to do now
[08:39] <ikonia> Paul_UK: check messages
[08:39] <chris-a> okay let me give this a shot
[08:39] <yaser_> dooglus, yea i know, but it doesnt wrk
[08:39] <Paul_UK> ikonia, yep checked messages, nothing
[08:39] <HardDisk> ill bbl i need to order food
[08:39] <dooglus> yaser_: wt hppns?
[08:39] <yiga1> yaser_: so what is the line exactly substituting "user" for the user on your local and remote computers?
[08:39] <HKJGN> ^_^ you know youre getting good when you can curse out the terminal /and/ still get things done
[08:39] <ikonia> wouterix: you ned a special package building
[08:39] <HardDisk> just leave me a sexy pm if you need me
[08:39] <HKJGN> that was creepy HardDisk
[08:40] <HKJGN> lol
[08:40] <HardDisk> hehehe
[08:40] <Paul_UK> * Starting DHCP server dhcpd3 [fail]  - hmm why? :(
[08:40] <HardDisk> bbl
[08:40] <yaser_> yiga1, scp $HOME/.ssh/id_dsa.pub supa2@medea7.augercac.auger.org.ar:/home2/yaser/id_dsa.pub
[08:40] <ikonia> Paul_UK: and there is nothing in /var/log/messages
[08:40] <wouterix> ikonia: Sorry about my englisch, i'm durch but where 'd I get that package
[08:40] <Paul_UK> ikonia, no
[08:40] <ikonia> wouterix: it doesn't exist
[08:40] <yaser_> dooglus, every things to be okay but it soesnt copy anything
[08:40] <HKJGN> i hunger... for pizza! brb
[08:40] <ikonia> wouterix: you have to build it
[08:40] <yiga1> yaser_: what error are you getting?
[08:40] <wouterix> How ?
[08:40] <yaser_> yiga1, anyone
[08:40] <Kjellviz> anyone that can help me out install a driver ? needs to be compiled i thinks
[08:41] <dooglus> yaser_: are you trying to copy it into ~/.ssh/ ?  'cos that's where it needs to be
[08:41] <wouterix> I make one packaege of the subpackages ?
[08:41] <yiga1> yaser_: what error are you getting?
[08:41] <ikonia> Paul_UK: thats quite stange
[08:41] <ikonia> Paul_UK: look at the init script and type the start up line manually
[08:41] <yaser_> dooglus, yiga1, well if it doesnt copy in my home folder it wont copy anywhere i think
[08:41] <wouterix> ikonia: May I pm you ?
[08:42] <yaser_> dooglus, yiga1, i dont get any error
[08:42] <ikonia> wouterix: no thanks
[08:42] <yiga1> yaser_: what error are you getting - this is the last time
[08:42] <dooglus> yaser_: are you sure that is your home directory?
[08:42] <wouterix> But ... I don't get it
[08:42] <yaser_> dooglus, yea i do, cd,
[08:42] <wouterix> How do i make a packages of 10 other packages
[08:42] <dooglus> yiga1: he's answered twice.  there is no error
[08:42] <Paul_UK> ikonia, where is the init script? /etc/init.d/ ?
[08:42] <ikonia> wouterix: if you want a custom build - you have to make a package.
[08:42] <svartrev> Lilacor: am gonna rtfm, try and grok the concept, but if you don't mind, two last things: where does ubuntu put packages ? do they all go in the same place ? and how much space roughly would I need for an install with things like OO.o, the gimp, cd burning software, lots of dev tools, a few languages, a couple of IDE's (eclipse wxDesigner or whatever I find that I like), the usual suspects..? Would a 10 Gb partition cut it ?
[08:42] <ce_19> hlo, ad yg tau g biar ubuntu bs muter mp3, tlong gwe bth bngt...
[08:42] <ikonia> Paul_UK: YES
[08:42] <ikonia> oops
[08:42] <ikonia> yes
[08:42] <Paul_UK> hehe ok
[08:43] <wouterix> And i still don't get it :x
[08:43] <yiga1> yaser_:  yes but it doesn't work so there is a problem, ok, so nothing happens
[08:43] <purpzey> HardDisk: Seems as though we may have been missing an aspci driver, maybe that will help.
[08:43] <Paul_UK> ikonia, lol : dhcpd self-test failed.  Please fix the config file.  The error was  (well its blank)
[08:43] <doronBE> hi, is there a way to mount an ftp location as a dir on my machine ?
[08:43] <yiga1> I am rather irritated at Evolution.  I want to use gvim, my favorite editor, to compose messages for my mail but I like a nice GUI environment to read my mail.  Does anyone know of an application that will let me do this.  I remember being happy with Claws-gtk but only problem was that it turns all my folders to mh which is rather esoteric.
[08:43] <wouterix> ikonia: this is the I have use: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=2591836&postcount=532 Now, i have installed al the .deb files
[08:44] <yaser_> yiga1, it doesnt display errors, it logs properly, but nothing about the file that is supposed to be copied
[08:44] <ikonia> Paul_UK: check the config file for something obvious, look at what the self test does
[08:44] <yaser_> dooglus, what do you think i should try
[08:44] <Paul_UK> ikonia, shouldnt this be working out of the box?  I mean for a server at least :P
[08:44] <yiga1> yaser_: can you copy other files back and forth between servers?
[08:44] <ikonia> Paul_UK: no no no no no no
[08:44] <dooglus> yaser_: on the remote host, can you "ls -l /home2/yaser/id_dsa.pub" ?
[08:44] <ikonia> Paul_UK: you have to configure it

[08:45] <yaser_> dooglus, ls: /home2/yaser/id_dsa.pub: No such file or directory
[08:46] <dooglus> yaser_: on the remote host, can you "ls -ld /home2/yaser/" ?
[08:46] <wouterix> Paul_UK: You know something about gtk packages ?

[08:46] <doronBE> is there a way to mount an ftp ? I tried ftpfs but it just doesnt work under ubuntu (kernel issues)
[08:46] <reanjr> Can anyone look to see what application starts when clicking on the network manager icon in GNOME?
[08:46] <yaser_> dooglus, same answer
[08:46] <dooglus> yaser_: and what if you "cd; pwd" on the remote host?
[08:46] <yiga1> yaser_: so you have in the past successfully copied files between computers with scp
[08:47] <yiga1> yaser_: ?
[08:47] <daxxar> How do I get network-manager in feisty to allow me to use WPA?
[08:47] <yaser_> dooglus, /home2/yaser as expected
[08:47] <yaser_> yiga1, yes
[08:47] <yiga1> yaser_: can you ssh into the remote server?
[08:47] <wouterix> reanjr: I you give me the command
[08:47] <yaser_> yiga1, yes
[08:47] <dooglus> yaser_: but "ls -ld /home2/yaser/" tells you there's no such directory?
[08:47] <chris-a> lilacor: i ran from the commandline and it threw a segmentation fault
[08:48] <zeroflag> how can I start gnome in a VNC session?
[08:48] <chris-a>  so would that be a case for reinstallation?
[08:48] <yaser_> dooglus, oh no excuseme it does work
[08:48] <yiga1> yaser_: and you have plenty of space on the remote server?
[08:48] <GigaClon> how do i list all my partitions and such
[08:48] <anthrax> ikonia: this is the last *error* im getting -> Setting up clvm (2.02.06-2ubuntu9) ...
[08:48] <anthrax> Starting Cluster LVM Daemon clvmd could not connect to cluster manager

[08:49] <dooglus> yaser_: and the 1st command?  what does that really show?
[08:49] <yaser_> yiga1, how can i check it
[08:49] <yaser_> dooglus, ls: /home2/yaser/id_dsa.pub: No such file or directory
[08:49] <Lilacor> chris-a: that's probably a good sign your firefox is hosed
[08:49] <yiga1> yaser_: you have such a strange problem that you might want to see what 1. permissions you have on your $HOME remote folder and 2. disk space.
[08:50] <yiga1> yaser_: ssh into the remote server and issue df for the disk space
[08:50] <goban> hi, whats a "display manager" and the difference between kdm and gdm
[08:50] <djzn> hi... in a case like sharing WINDOWS and LINUX on a single hard disk, with a separate partition with data files... what is the best file-system type to use in this data partition so that both systems can share the files without any hassle?
[08:50] <dooglus> yaser_: 1. is drwx------, as he just said
[08:50] <yiga1> yaser_: if you are having problems copying files then you may want to try and create a file when you are in the server, like "touch new_document" and see if it lets you
[08:50] <CokeNCode> hey guys, looking for a program to let me remotely (in console) monitor my cpu temperature ... any suggestions ?
[08:50] <yaser_> dooglus, yiga1 well you got it, tehre is not disk space
[08:51] <yiga1> yaser_: that is funny :)
[08:51] <GigaClon> hello how can I list my partitions like /dev/hda etc.
[08:51] <yiga1> yaser_: best
[08:51] <dooglus> I'm surprised scp doesn't complain about the lack of space
[08:51] <CokeNCode> basically, just a console program that shows cpu temperature
[08:51] <Kalisto> anyone good with pam? im trying to find a workaround for: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpam-mount/+bug/117736
[08:52] <GigaClon> how can i find out the UUID of a partition?
[08:52] <yiga1> Does anyone use a different mail client other than Evolution?
[08:52] <yaser_> yiga1, dooglus thanks
[08:52] <soneil> GigaClon, I believe it's one of the options to vol_id (or volid.  my memory's rusty)
[08:52] <Kalisto> yiga1, thunderbird
[08:53] <yiga1> Kalisto: does thunderbird let you use any editor you want to compose a message?
[08:53] <Kalisto> yiga1, it comes with one. i dont know if you can use an external one though
[08:53] <Paul_UK> god can someone please kill me, vi in ubuntu sucks, is there a better editor?
[08:54] <Paul_UK> *ubuntu server
[08:54] <CokeNCode> Paul_UK pico
[08:54] <Kalisto> Paul_UK, nano or pico
[08:54] <SlimeyPete> yeah. vim, nano
[08:54] <yiga1> Paul_UK: what are you talking about?
[08:54] <SlimeyPete> some people like emacs.
[08:54] <yiga1> Paul_UK: you are given vim minimal by default is that what you are using?
[08:54] <Kalisto> Paul_UK, of gedit
[08:54] <soneil> vim on ubuntu wouldn't allow me to ":syn on".  what on earth is that all about
[08:54] <yiga1> Paul_UK: yes if you don't like vim then use emacs
[08:54] <jrib> Paul_UK: vim-tiny is installed by default, install vim-full
[08:54] <jrib> soneil: see above
[08:54] <abo0> hello, is it possible to configure wireless from command line or do I really need some gui
[08:55] <yiga1> soneil: vim comes as vim-minimal by default
[08:55] <djzn> hi... in a case like sharing WINDOWS and LINUX on a single hard disk, with a separate partition with data files... what is the best file-system type to use in this data partition so that both systems can share the files without any hassle?
[08:55] <dooglus> Paul_UK: what's up with vi in ubuntu?  if you want a fuller vi, 'nvi' is slightly bigger, or 'vim' is huge
[08:55] <CokeNCode> Paul_UK are you working in a GUI environment, if so, use gedit
[08:55] <soneil> jrib: perfect timing, and thanks for the answer :)
[08:55] <ce_19> ad pk bhs indonesia g, aku bth bantuan neh...
[08:55] <dooglus> Paul_UK: if you want a gui editor, there's gedit.  personally I like emacs
[08:55] <Paul_UK> yiga1 i actually like vim, but its not working as it should do.. im having to press ins several times just to put stuff in
[08:55] <n31984b> hi! is there anybody that fully understands the dpkg options?
[08:55] <Paul_UK> Just for record, im not using a GUI
[08:55] <CokeNCode> Paul_UK then go with pico
[08:55] <CokeNCode> it's pretty straightforward
[08:55] <dooglus> Paul_UK: try 'nano' or 'emacs' I guess, if you don't like vi
[08:56] <yiga1> Paul_UK: just install vim-full
[08:56] <Paul_UK> i do like vi, in centos :P
[08:56] <soneil> djzn: I believe fat32 is still the best choice for a partition that has to be read by both OSes.  but not the best choice for a partition to run an OS from
[08:56] <Kalisto> out of 1200 people no one is good with pam????
[08:56] <gordonjcp> Paul_UK: press "INS"?
[08:56] <gordonjcp> Paul_UK: press "i" surely?
[08:56] <Paul_UK> gordonjcp: seriously?
[08:56] <dooglus> Paul_UK: 'i' is the key to enter insert mode, not INS
[08:56] <gordonjcp> Paul_UK: yeah
[08:56] <yiga1> Paul_UK: the vim that is installed by default in Ubuntu is the minimal version & is missing a lot to begin with
[08:56] <CokeNCode> Kalisto no one reading the chat is good with pam
[08:56] <CokeNCode> which is about 5% of that 1200
[08:56] <Kalisto> CokeNCode, fairnuff..
 Paul_UK pico
 Paul_UK, nano or pico
[08:57] <djzn> soneil: isn't NTFS support in ubuntu now fully stable with reading and writing?
[08:57] <CokeNCode> Kalisto I was just reading up on it for my Linux+ exam, I may be able to help you, depending on the level of complexity
[08:57] <Paul_UK> ahh, vim is what im used too.. vi is seriously messed up lol
[08:58] <soneil> djzn, I couldn't tell you .. I'm still using the LTS release.  I just trust fat32 across many platforms.  basically simple enough that it'll work anywhere
[08:58] <yiga1> Paul_UK: yes are you using nvi?
[08:58] <n31984b> Is there anybody that handles the dpkg options? Please, help.
[08:58] <Kalisto> CokeNCode, this bug: i need a workaround https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libpam-mount/+bug/117736
[08:58] <Paul_UK> yiga1: i was doing vi  now im doing  vim
[08:58] <yiga1> Paul_UK: awesome good to hear, vim gvim are great !
[08:58] <savvas> how can i make rhythmbox stop running automatically when i connect my sony ericsson mobile?
[08:59] <jrib> n31984b: what do you mean?  Just ask the question
[08:59] <jrib> savvas: system > preferences > removable drives and media
[08:59] <djzn> how stable is the NTFS-writing in Linux?
[08:59] <CokeNCode> sorry Kalisto, way above my head
[08:59] <Paul_UK> yiga1: yeah vim on ubuntu server is the same as vi on centos
[08:59] <jrib> djzn: it's ok I guess... I would still have backups personally, but a lot of people trust it
[08:59] <savvas> jrib: thanks :)
[08:59] <Kalisto> CokeNCode, yea iv been sitting at this all day. i dont know where to look
[09:00] <Kalisto> CokeNCode, the developer of pam_mount says its an ubuntu bug.. so no help there
[09:00] <orangefly_> can someone please help....i can't login to ubuntu....it says "gnome session manager was unable to lock" and so forth....
[09:01] <Kalisto> orangefly_, your IceAuth file ey?
[09:01] <djzn> jrib: I have read that NTFS-writing, when you write a file, it writes with "everyone" permissions... even when It was a proprietary file from a user
[09:01] <orangefly_> Kalisto: what....???....
[09:02] <n31984b> how can i bind together more than one value in dpkg --debug=octal? (for example the 1 and 2)
[09:02] <Kalisto> orangefly_, what does it say... lock what??????
[09:02] <cj_> hi guys, has anyone had a problem playing encrypted dvds after installing libdvdcss2? i get a stream of errors and can only terminate the process with a SIGKILL. just wondering if it's a known issue?
[09:02] <Kalisto> cj_ checked the forums?
[09:02] <lagrimo> knnte mir jemand sagen, wie ich ein autostart programm aus ubuntu aus dem terminal heraus aus dem autostart enfernen kann, bitte?
[09:02] <orangefly_> the file '/home/myname/.ICEauthority'.    what does that mean....???....
[09:02] <siloko> Hello, is there a way to set your default browser system wide?

[09:04] <Huffameg> hi.. someone who can help a newbie installing thunderbird?
[09:04] <Kalisto> orangefly_, that was i was saying. orangefly_ google it. the reasons are various
[09:04] <Super_Cat_Frog_> hi - does anybody know where I can get a pdf of the ubuntu feisty documentation?
[09:04] <orangefly_> ok....
[09:04] <Kalisto> orangefly_, check permissions on it too
[09:05] <cj_> Kalisto: did you have no problems getting it working?
[09:05] <erUSUL> orangefly_: sometimes that file "gets" wrong permisions and owner and you can not login. Boot in recovery mode and remove the file
[09:05] <jrib> Huffameg: use synaptic to install the "mozilla-thunderbird" package
[09:05] <Kalisto> cj_, iv neer tried
[09:05] <Kalisto> erUSUL, nooo!!!
[09:05] <Kalisto> DO NOT REMOVE!
[09:05] <jrib> n31984b: I just answered here, please keep the questions in the channel
[09:05] <five_star> hey guys
[09:05] <Kalisto> erUSUL, wtf? remove just because perms are wrong?
[09:06] <n31984b> ok
[09:06] <Paul_UK> if someone is running ubuntu server 7, it would be great if you could paste your /etc/dhcp3/dhcpd.conf into pastebin for me, as i cant get dhcp server working :(
[09:06] <five_star> How do I make it so volume control is for the out on my soundcard?
[09:06] <deviantintegral> I need some help with a kernel panic I'm having with the 7.04 amd64 rescue CD. I'm copying a few hundred gigs of data off of an LVM/raid5 volume to a regular HD, and it kernel panics at some point through the copy. Unfortunately, the panic msg scrolls off the screen so I only have the end... any suggestions?
[09:06] <Gabrie1> hi people... i need some help here
[09:06] <Huffameg> jrib: well.. i have the old version of thunderbird, but they've just released a new one.. i have downloaded the tra.gz-file but i don't understand how to update my old version..
[09:06] <five_star> deviantintegral: save the log then search it?
[09:06] <Kalisto> orangefly_, try sudo chmod 777 .ICEAuthority from command line (press CTL ALT F1 to get to command line)
[09:07] <ANON12345> !invesigate | ANON12345
[09:07] <deviantintegral> five_star: it's the livecd, so the log gets nuked from RAM when I reboot
[09:07] <five_star> deviantintegral: save it to a thumb drive?
[09:07] <five_star> or a floppy
[09:07] <sethro> so what's the best way to do the LAMP on a ddns?
 n31984b: 1+2=3 I guess -- buts it says on the man page that is bitwise orring, shouldnt it be 1 or 2?
[09:07] <Gabrie1> i'm installing a fax/modem lucent/agere here on ubuntu edgy but it auto recognize as intel 537
[09:07] <jrib> Huffameg: it takes some work, it's usually best to stick with what is in the repos.  With that being said, see: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ThunderbirdNewVersion
[09:07] <Gabrie1> but i cant connect with gnome...
[09:07] <ANON12345> how do i configure Kannel?
[09:07] <dooglus> how do I access the SDcard reader on my laptop?
[09:08] <Kalisto> deviantintegral, check logs? /var/log/messages
[09:08] <deviantintegral> five_star: the box has paniced, it doesn't respond to anything
[09:08] <five_star> deviantintegral: you can't restart it?
[09:08] <erUSUL> Kalisto: it is a kind of lock file that gets created on the fly (that's why when you run some setuid apps it gets root perm) and there is no harm on removing it
[09:08] <jrib> n31984b: 1 | 2 = 3
[09:08] <deviantintegral> I can restart it, but aren't the logs stored in /var/log, which is in ram?
[09:08] <five_star> hey guys how do I set up my audio control so it controls the volume? I can't find the right one
[09:08] <five_star> deviantintegral: can't you make the logs save to a drive?
[09:08] <n31984b> hmmm, there should be cases that would not be equal as the sum of the values, right?
[09:08] <five_star> deviantintegral: mount a thumb drive
[09:08] <dooglus> I see a device from lspci which looks like a card reader - but do I need to install something to use it?
[09:09] <Huffameg> jrib: will the new thunderbird be in the repos in some time?
[09:09] <svartrev> hey guys, dumb Q I know, but offhand, where does ubuntu put packages when you install them ? do they all go to the same place ?
[09:09] <deviantintegral> deviantintegral: symlink /var/log to the thumbdrive?
[09:09] <erUSUL> svartrev: /var/cache/apt/archives/
[09:09] <five_star> deviantintegral: if you got nothin but time to waste, try it
[09:09] <shiryu> can you save the smileys of your friends en gaim?
[09:09] <shiryu> emoticons or wherever it says?
[09:09] <Gabrie1> guys, do i have to do something else if the ubuntu auto-recognize my winmodem driver?
[09:09] <nickrud> svartrev, the packages install files in various places; dpkg -L <packagename> shows where
[09:09] <five_star> deviantintegral: do a small test first perhaps
[09:10] <erUSUL> Huffameg: no new versions of programs in stable releases
[09:10] <five_star> hey guys, how do I fix volume control so that it, uh, works?
[09:10] <jrib> Huffameg: probably not.  It will probably go into gutsy soon.  But since it is a package in main, it will probably not be backported to feisty
[09:10] <erUSUL> !stable | Huffameg
[09:10] <ubotu> Huffameg: Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should. Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[09:10] <n31984b> anyway, can i just turn translate those values in bits and that oring them? i would do that, but that's says the numbers are octals, does that means that they are base 8 instead of ten?
[09:10] <svartrev> nickrud: thx. Is it configurable before you install the package ?
[09:10] <five_star> /last huffameg
[09:10] <five_star> fuck
[09:10] <nickrud> svartrev, no.
[09:10] <five_star> i miss irssi, but pidgin is so much nicer
[09:10] <CokeNCode> pidgin rules
[09:10] <Kalisto> erUSUL, ok fair enough. I was just horrified that one would del a file due to wrong permissions.
[09:10] <svartrev> nickrud: hrmmm, oh well. Thx
[09:10] <linuxas> hello
[09:11] <nickrud> svartrev, other packages might depend on where another package put stuff
[09:11] <jrib> n31984b: well all octal numbers can be written in binary so that should be fine if it helps you
[09:11] <five_star> anybody care to help me fix my volume control?
[09:11] <n31984b> but are they base 8?
[09:11] <n31984b> or ten?
[09:11] <Huffameg> jrib: okay.. do not update now.. :-) but i would have to update to a newer version sooner or later?
[09:11] <five_star> it doesn't control the volume, and nomatter what I change it to it won't work. I think it has something to do with alsa
[09:11] <Hc\> hello, could some1 help me plz? i got a problem with apache webserver, im trying to bet apach2 but it wont get installed, but apache 1.3 will work. Any1 know where the problem is?
[09:11] <erUSUL> Kalisto: no problem btw k3b was (or still is?) a program that messed with ICEauthority...
[09:12] <jrib> Huffameg: you shouldn't *have* to update
[09:12] <Althexx> dooglus: modprobe sdhci
[09:12] <jrib> n31984b: yes, seems like it
[09:12] <dooglus> Althexx: it's already loaded
[09:12] <Huffameg> jrib: okay.. thanks..
[09:13] <Althexx> well I have a device i can mount like so: mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /media/mmc
[09:13] <Kalisto> erUSUL, you any good with pam?
[09:13] <erUSUL> Huffameg: maybe it ends up being "backported" add the backport repos if you like
[09:13] <dooglus> Althexx: http://tuxmobil.org/mmc_sd_card_unix.html#ToC1 tells me that "The SD Card Association product license agreement does not allow open source drivers for the SD cards."
[09:13] <erUSUL> Kalisto: not much, sorry
[09:13] <svartrev> anybody know, if I want to install ubuntu, and I don't wanna go overboard with software, but I will want OO.o, thunderbird, firefox, vid players, the gimp, a few languages, dev tools,one or two IDE's, youknow, the usual suspects... how big would all that be ? would a 10gb partition be enough ?
[09:13] <five_star> nevermind guys, just remembred to use alsamixer to find the right one
[09:13] <dooglus> Althexx: how did you find the /dev/mmc... path?
[09:14] <Althexx> actually, I can't remember, sorry... ;-)
[09:14] <nickrud> svartrev, more than enough; I have a 12gb and don't ever expect to fill it
[09:14] <n31984b> anyway, should i just setup the etc/.../dpkg.cfg? or just without doing anything dpkg should prompt me when comes some risky circumtances like downgrade? Do you change the cfg file?
[09:14] <svartrev> nickrud: ta duud, that's what I wanted to hear
[09:14] <nickrud> svartrev, assuming you have a separate home partition; that's what would grow with music & vid & the like
[09:15] <svartrev> nickrud: yeah, would keep my media and stuff on another hdd, that one would have some more space
[09:15] <orangefly_> Kalisto_, igot it....ty....
[09:15] <ubuntu_> hello
[09:15] <doodoobrown> whats up?

[09:16] <five_star> hey guys

[09:30] <lockd> aricz: try KTorrent, if it works it is a program bug in Deluge Torrent
[09:30] <aricz> lockd: ah.. ok

[09:47] <caner> i have php and apache (and mod_php) installed, but i want to use php in some desktop scripts. will it work if i put  a hashbang just like i am using perl??
[09:47] <doodoobrown2> is that the command
[09:47] <purpzey> k31th: Are you serious?
[09:47] <lou__> no prob, i don't have them memory to try and remember all the fixes lol
[09:47] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: yeop
[09:47] <Henica> Hmm.. what's that supposed to mean, purpzey?
[09:47] <k31th> does anyone have any solutions to beryl and the nvidia drivers black windows?
[09:47] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: it's the command to start the graphic
[09:47] <k31th> purpzey: yes.
[09:47] <doodoobrown2> it says some errors
[09:47] <purpzey> Henica: Beryl has a ton of desktop-effects, but it is very intensive in terms of graphics card and memory usage.
[09:48] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: well you found the why
[09:48] <doodoobrown2> Xsession: unable to start X session ----- no "/home/theman/.xsession" file
[09:48] <purpzey> Henica: And it's also moderately unstable, although I haven't had any problems with it personally.
[09:48] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: well easy no ?
[09:48] <Henica> Hmm.  I'll give it a go.
[09:48] <k31th> purpzey: its not that bad if you dont have an nvidia card.

The problem is that rdesktop launches a big window and a login screen, after few seconds (as described in the guide) that window should vanish and the application is supposed to appear somewhere, but its not doing that. Im stuck after the log in part. Can anyone help me please? thank you :)

[09:54] <AWOSLappy> Dell-Net: rm ~/.ssh/known_hosts will clear your keys, ALL of your keys, go for that if you don't mind
[09:54] <lockd> if nobody can help.. hmm, perhaps I will have to reformat with a Windows XP install disk, but I have settings I would rather not redo and install takes a while

[09:57] <Maverynthia> :E
[09:57] <doodoobrown2> aka not for me
[09:57] <chowdah> elYase: I have used it before, did you have a question about it?
[09:57] <barnball> what about that one? google said somethin about an apt.conf file, but i dont have an apt.conf file
[09:57] <lockd> rizzo_: it isn't.. it just says it may be incorrectly partitioned
[09:57] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: system administrator, developers etc etc ... not users
[09:57] <doodoobrown2> oh
[09:57] <qats1> caner:  what do you want to do with PHP?
[09:57] <barnball> yea, except i dont see an apt.conf file, so what do i do bbrazil?

[09:57] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: sudo su
[09:57] <elYase> Chousuke, yes i would like to know if there is possible to execute or type commands in the remote server?
[09:57] <doodoobrown2> is there a way to get rid of that scandisk after every couple of boots
[09:58] <bbrazil> barnball: increase number as required
[09:58] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2 put your password and startx
[09:58] <caner> qatsl : just want to print hello world to the command line :)
[09:58] <rizzo_> lockd: so it's not recognizing the image as partition?
[09:58] <barnball> k, will give it a shot
[09:58] <caner> i can use it with apache
[09:58] <caner> is it possible standalone???
[09:58] <doodoobrown2> it still has the same error
[09:58] <XBehave> which version of the kernel does a current fiesty run on?
[09:58] <doodoobrown2> then says aborting again
[09:58] <AWOSLappy> ericnlnl are you on Feisty?
[09:58] <Gabrie1> peoooople... i'm trying to connect trough dialup but gnome cant recognize my modem... ubuntu auto recognizes my winmodem as intel 537 but i cant dial.... what should i do???

[09:58] <ericnlnl> i am on the 4/2007 version
[09:58] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: same error
[09:58] <chowdah> i don't think there is, it's only graphical
[09:58] <doodoobrown2> same
[09:59] <erUSUL> doodoobrown2: it shouldn't be "after every couple of boots" it shpuld be more rare.... problems with the BIOS clock perhaps?
[09:59] <qats1> caner: nope, php needs apache to run, so maybe if you find a way to output pages to the command line...maybe lynx...?
[09:59] <rizzo_> XBehave: 2.6.20-16-generic
[09:59] <doodoobrown2> it was a start tho..
[09:59] <AWOSLappy> caner: yes type php on the command line

[09:59] <sercik>  if i launch a fluxbox session i see many entry in menu but in kde menu there are fex entry because of that applications that don't create a .desktop file but create a file in /usr/share/me
[09:59] <XBehave> thx
[09:59] <AWOSLappy> ericnlnl: Hmm, I got the same kernel update and mine didn't erase the Windows menu option in grub.
[09:59] <lockd> rizzo_: Windows boots off of both the disk and the image, perfectly
[09:59] <lockd> rizzo_: (all done in Qemu)
[09:59] <ericnlnl> well i had also added a new menu option awloslappy
[10:00] <qats1> caner: do what AWOSLappy says, he seems to know :p ive never tried doing anything in PHP for the command line...
[10:00] <doodoobrown2> well thanks for the help then guys
[10:00] <ericnlnl> awloslappy: default was ubuntu, ubuntu-safe, windows, memtest
[10:00] <AWOSLappy> ericnlnl: Ah, so the auto-configuration didn't work.  Okay.
[10:00] <doodoobrown2> i just hope i dont run into this problem again if i install the feisty
[10:00] <rizzo_> lockd: do you have any other partitions on that disk?
[10:00] <Fuzz> what movieplayer should i use in ubuntu? which one is the best?
[10:00] <ericnlnl> i moved windows to first and added some ubuntu-hibernate menu option
 i am just practicing on php and using my /var/www folder and checking from the broswer is killing me
[10:00] <AWOSLappy> ericnlnl: it's AWOSLappy, not awloslappy :)
[10:00] <nj786> anybody there that can help me with sound?
[10:00] <sercik> someone knows an application to convert /usr/share/menu entry in kde entry??
[10:00] <caner> i just want to write some simple scripts to test my functions
[10:00] <erUSUL> !sound > nj786
[10:00] <caner> if they are allright or not
[10:00] <barnball> thanks bbrazil, its working now, knew it was something simple lol
[10:01] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: sorry ... don't know ... I haven't in my ubuntu ... but it's a general one .. if the root wants it too
[10:01] <lockd> rizzo_: oh, I mean I dd'd to the partition /dev/sda1
[10:01] <sldkfj> fuzz, totem works well as does vlc
[10:01] <nj786> erUSUL, yes my sound stopped working
[10:01] <lockd> rizzo_: and I am trying to resize /dev/sda1
[10:01] <ericnlnl> AWOSLappy, after the kernel update, i had the entries: newkernel, newkernel-safe, oldkernel, oldkernel-safe, memtest. so the hibernate and windows entries got dropped
[10:01] <funkja> i have a dual boot system with ubuntu on one disk and windows on the second. Grub is installed on the disk with ubuntu on it and i can boot it fine with grub but windows will not boot. I read somewhere that grub has to be installed on the disk with the windows mbr on it. Is that true?
[10:01] <AWOSLappy> caner: you may need to     sudo apt-get install php5-cli      first
[10:01] <doodoobrown2> got one more question aLeSD
 i have it already?
[10:01] <AWOSLappy> ericnlnl: Hmm, yeah that delete your entries.  May be bug.
[10:01] <caner> how can it help
[10:01] <caner> ??
[10:01] <qats1> caner: why is it killing you?....not practical refreshing firefox?
[10:01] <erUSUL> nj786: read the pm from ubotu
[10:01] <AWOSLappy> caner: Oh if you have it, then just type "php"

[10:02] <AWOSLappy> caner: "php somefile.php"
[10:02] <ericnlnl> greyfrog, i already fixed it again, so i have no real logs of the bug, sorry
 :) oh i am absltly dumb. i should have tried php ...
[10:02] <caner> o.k <AWOSLappy> thanks
[10:02] <lockd> lilo is all I can use because of my BIOS settings
[10:02] <AWOSLappy> caner: np :)
[10:02] <caner> it will probably work
[10:02] <lockd> well, because of my BIOS - no settings help
[10:02] <Genecks> I need to make a script that plays out keyboard typing and mouse clicks. How do I do this in Linux?
[10:02] <ericnlnl> my menu.lst~ was quite close to what i wanted, so i used that as basis for the fix
[10:03] <doodoobrown2> like if i format the ubuntu partitions i have now and install the new vers. of ubuntu
[10:03] <Yasuo> hi, any1 knows a tool to copy defect files from a cd to harddisk?
[10:03] <ServerSide> hey =)
[10:03] <doodoobrown2> will grub say hey wheres the old ubuntu
[10:03] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: a good idea is to have always a /home partition ... so when you reinstall you don't lose your datas
[10:03] <doodoobrown2> and run into errors
[10:03] <necrite_> hi
[10:03] <Genecks> No, grub will not.
[10:03] <ServerSide> Omg manybody
[10:03] <doodoobrown2> ok
[10:03] <rizzo_> lockd: what are you trying to resize it with?
[10:03] <ericnlnl> greyfrog, AWOSLappy, i suggest to give Ubuntu a wizard "add menu item for Windows" - after all, Windows menu items are easy to make :-)
[10:03] <doodoobrown2> will it erase the old ubuntu from its list or do i have to manually do that
[10:03] <phretor> hi folks
 it seems my problem is using too much python :))
[10:03] <tomer> hellow
[10:03] <lockd> rizzo_: ntfsresize
[10:03] <Genecks> NO, it won't delete it.
[10:04] <tomer> anyone know how to make ubuntu play wmv files ?
[10:04] <doodoobrown2> so i have to manually delete it some how
[10:04] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: the installation will ask you that
[10:04] <necrite_> why apache2-mpm-worker remove the libapache2-mod-php5 module?
[10:04] <aLeSD> I hope
[10:04] <rizzo_> lockd: duh, sorry you already said that
[10:04] <Fuzz> ohh ohh ohh.. and is there a torrent client thats a bit like utorrent?
[10:04] <tomer> it can play mpeg already
[10:04] <lockd> rizzo_: ntfsresize -50G (what fdisk reports) /dev/sda1
[10:04] <phretor> why does Feisty does fsck at *every* boot?
[10:04] <blackjackel> Does anyone here know how to use MLDonkey?
[10:04] <Fuzz> individual windows per torrent sux
[10:04] <rizzo_> i'm half brain dead today
[10:04] <lockd> rizzo_: won't even work with -f
[10:04] <sldkfj> tomer, with restricted media files
[10:04] <AWOSLappy> ericnlnl: lol, I'm not a dev, I just look like it :P
[10:04] <doodoobrown2> feisty does fsck at every boot ?????
[10:04] <doodoobrown2> whattt
[10:04] <doodoobrown2> i def. cant get it now
[10:04] <tomer> whats "restricted media files"
[10:05] <doodoobrown2> i know for sure ill run into this problem again
[10:05] <AWOSLappy> doodoobrown2: GRUB will be fine with the new Ubuntu if you format the partition with /boot on it
[10:05] <erUSUL> doodoobrown2: no, it does not
[10:05] <n2diy> phretor: to protect your data
[10:05] <rizzo_> lockd: that's strange...hmmm
[10:05] <doodoobrown2> oh
[10:05] <doodoobrown2> ok
[10:05] <AWOSLappy> caner: aha :)
[10:05] <ericnlnl> AWOSLappy well you may have enough irc experience to tell a dev about my suggestion... everybody is talking at the same time, hard for me to understand anything ;)
[10:05] <Genecks> doobrown2, yes it does
[10:05] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: grub and fcsck aren't a thing that talk each other
[10:05] <Genecks> doodoobrown2, yes they are.
[10:05] <Paddy_EIRE> there is a message on that flashes on top of the screen just after grub boots the os and just before the ubuntu splash screen that says "pci_bios bug found... something something. (it does not stay long enough for me to finish reading) how can I find out what this is?
[10:05] <erUSUL> blackjackel: i use the web interface... or you can use sancho (a gui)
[10:05] <CheshireViking> !restricted | tomer
[10:05] <ubotu> tomer: For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[10:05] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: grub == boot manager , fsck == check of the hd
[10:05] <doodoobrown2> yea but that fcsck got me in this problem in the first place
[10:05] <doodoobrown2> yea
[10:05] <Genecks> fsck you
[10:05] <erUSUL> Paddy_EIRE: dmesg | less
[10:05] <blackjackel> erUSL: sancho huh? Im currently using the MLDONKEY gui
[10:06] <doodoobrown2> the fsck got me into this
[10:06] <aLeSD> Genecks: lol
[10:06] <doodoobrown2> grub is fine
[10:06] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: yes
[10:06] <AWOSLappy> ericnlnl: hehe, yes I have IRC experience :)
[10:06] <phretor> n2diy: at *every* boot?
[10:06] <erUSUL> blackjackel: so what is exactly the problem?
[10:06] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: soo you switch off the computer with the button ???
[10:06] <doodoobrown2> i rather never have fsck touch my hd again
[10:06] <AWOSLappy> Paddy_EIRE: dmesg | less
[10:06] <brandon_> which is better Konversation or BitchX
[10:06] <Griz> how can i completely reinstall grub on my linux partition
[10:06] <doodoobrown2> i did shutdown -r now
[10:06] <blackjackel> erUSL: I can't seem to connect to anything other than edonkey
[10:06] <Griz> it seems to be hopelessy destroyed
[10:06] <doodoobrown2> in root
[10:06] <sldkfj> brandon_, apples and oranges
[10:06] <lockd> rizzo_: there is probably some header that it needs
[10:06] <phretor> n2diy: do you understand that an fsck at every boot is not acceptable?
[10:06] <AWOSLappy> brandon_ ctcpversion me, you'll see Konversation :D
[10:07] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: well fsck doesn't say that
[10:07] <brandon_> word
[10:07] <doodoobrown2> about to make an iso cd with fiesty
[10:07] <sldkfj> it's a user's call
[10:07] <lockd> rizzo_: since it was just a dd from an image file
[10:07] <doodoobrown2> hopefully everything goes ok
[10:07] <brandon_> thats what im using.
[10:07] <Genecks> XIRC2 is the best.
[10:07] <Paddy_EIRE> erUSUL, I have no idea what that output is?
[10:07] <erUSUL> blackjackel: maybe the core is compiled to only support edonkey (that's how i compile mine)
[10:07] <brandon_> xIRC2?
[10:07] <n2diy> phretor: if you don't shutdown properly, otherwise it should do it at intervals. Yes, I do understand, that is why I don't shutdown.
[10:07] <doodoobrown2> i got the alternate cd
[10:07] <ericnlnl> AWOSLappy something kompletely different: i have only a swap file, no swap partn, so i tried to use that "offset" syntax on the kernel command line but ubuntu always wakes up again at once. suspend to ram worked out of the box, by the way :-)
[10:07] <nj786> erUSL, that did not help much
[10:07] <erUSUL> Paddy_EIRE: with the command you can see the kernel boot msgs
[10:07] <phretor> n2diy: I do shutdown properly
[10:07] <lockd> is there an alternative method to copying a disk image to a disk, besides dd?
[10:07] <doodoobrown2> aLeSD in ur opinion whats better the alternate cd or live cd
[10:07] <brooksbp> can someone help me
[10:07] <zeroflag> can someone tell me how to enable remote gdm login without gdm running?
[10:07] <ericnlnl> brandon_ i am using bitchx at the moment but using centericq for the irc of freedos :-)
[10:08] <tomer> yes the advice on that site does not work. e.g. i cannot install xine
[10:08] <lockd> I want all the filesystem information to get written!
[10:08] <AWOSLappy> ericnlnl: Ooh.  I have no ACPI experience :P
[10:08] <sldkfj> brooksbp, how so?
[10:08] <phretor> n2diy: this issue is deterministic and it re-happen at *every* boot
[10:08] <blackjackel> erUSUL, well, I only installed it via apt-get install mldonkey-server
[10:08] <tomer> do apt-get install gstreamer0.10-pitfdll gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad-multiverse gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly-multiverse gxine libxine-main1 libxine-extracodecs ogle ogle-gui
[10:08] <AWOSLappy> brandon_: personally I like irssi, Konversation sucks.
[10:08] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: alternate means different ?
[10:08] <AWOSLappy> But Konversation is the best GUI client.
[10:08] <Paddy_EIRE> erUSUL, that message is not amoung the output of dmesg | less
[10:08] <qats1> brooksbp: post your question
[10:08] <ericnlnl> AWOSLappy this is not about acpi - as said, suspend to ram just works
[10:08] <bruenig> xchat
[10:08] <doodoobrown2> thats the iso name
[10:08] <doodoobrown2> alternate vers. iso
[10:08] <brandon_> i guess ill just stick with konversation
[10:08] <brandon_> since im a newbie
[10:08] <elYase> Chousuke, yes i would like to know if there is possible to execute or type commands in the remote server?
[10:08] <doodoobrown2> then u got the live cd
[10:08] <tomer> isnt there a simple apt-get that can allow to view the wmv files
[10:08] <doodoobrown2> two different downloads
[10:08] <brooksbp> I have a problem installing nvidia drivers... I get the error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel modules has the version 1.0-9755, but this X module has the version 1.0-9631... when i go to synaptics all the nvidia drivers have the same rev number though?
[10:09] <doodoobrown2> one is text mode
[10:09] <erUSUL> blackjackel: as i said i use my self compiled server do not know the capabilties of the packaged one...
[10:09] <doodoobrown2> other graphical
[10:09] <rizzo_> lockd: are you trying this from a live cd?
[10:09] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: I mean alternate in english meas different ?
[10:09] <ericnlnl> breaking news: somebody is happy with KUBUNTU 7.04, even Zydas ZD1211USB works. BUT somehow in EDUBUNTU and XUBUNTU the WLAN no longer works. Whats the difference?
[10:09] <tomer> i get: couldnt find package libxine-main2
[10:09] <blackjackel> erUSL: I'm getting sancho now
[10:09] <tomer> i get: couldnt find package libxine-main1
[10:09] <ericnlnl> (I just got that one by email)
[10:09] <lockd> rizzo_: no
[10:09] <doodoobrown2> yea in english that means different
[10:09] <blackjackel> erUSL: cant find it thoug
[10:09] <AWOSLappy> Sorry I must go.
[10:09] <AWOSLappy> lol
[10:09] <sldkfj> tomer. in feisty totem will ask an outside source for codecs it doesn't have, so there is a slight chance
[10:09] <brooksbp> anyone?
[10:09] <brooksbp> anyone?
[10:09] <lockd> rizzo_: I want to be able to make a hard disk partition with the exact contents of a disk image
[10:09] <AWOSLappy> lol @ ericnlnl's message
[10:09] <brandon_> Ok. I know this sounds stupid but how do you know when you can turn your PC off after Power off in Ubuntu?
[10:09] <aLeSD> doodoobrown2: soo ... I'll try first with the standard .. no ?   ;)
[10:10] <brandon_> does the Ubuntu screen stay up until you power down
[10:10] <lockd> rizzo_: exact, meaning it can be booted and manipulated as one
[10:10] <brandon_> or am i not waiting long enough
[10:10] <doodoobrown2> yea
[10:10] <ericnlnl> see you AWOSLappy :)
[10:10] <tomer> hmm i think i have 6.06 that is before feisty..
[10:10] <AWOSLappy> brandon_ you are not waiting
[10:10] <ferronica> how to use WEB CAM in ubuntu 7.04 GNOME
[10:10] <sldkfj> I've searched with that feature twice since I installed it
[10:10] <doodoobrown2> ill put both on cd
[10:10] <Dybber> Whas the difference between "sudo emacs" and "gksudo emacs"? Emacs doesn't find my .emacs file when using the latter.
[10:10] <AWOSLappy> brandon_ unless it says "WILL NOW HALT"
[10:10] <AWOSLappy> anyways by
[10:10] <qats1> brooksbp: i dont think i know the answer, but try the question again and see if somebody answers...
[10:10] <AWOSLappy> *bye!
[10:10] <doodoobrown2> thanks for ur help aLeSD
[10:10] <mylogic> What is the name of the PPC Ubuntu fork that's hosted by google?
[10:10] <doodoobrown2> hopefully i wont be in here again today
[10:10] <sldkfj> yeah, 6.06 is Dapper
[10:10] <brandon_> AWOSLappy: so the PC will turn off by it's self unless it says WILL NOW HALT, thats when I manual power off?
[10:10] <lockd> rizzo_: wait.. it isn't! the image has bad filesystem too
[10:10] <AWOSLappy> mylogic: ?
[10:10] <tannerld> how can I get the verbose output of commands?
[10:10] <AWOSLappy> brandon_ yes
[10:10] <brandon_> AWOSLappy: appricate it.
[10:10] <brooksbp> can anyone help with NVIDIA drivers??
[10:10] <aLeSD> ferronica: put it in usb and lsusb
[10:10] <tannerld> AWOSLappy: :O
[10:10] <brooksbp> I have a problem installing nvidia drivers... I get the error: API mismatch: the NVIDIA kernel modules has the version 1.0-9755, but this X module has the version 1.0-9631... when i go to synaptics all the nvidia drivers have the same rev number though?
[10:11] <AWOSLappy> but that's only if you have the option enabled
[10:11] <lockd> rizzo_: but I installed to it just yesterday - perhaps images do not work like reasonable partitions
[10:11] <brandon_> I gotta get a cat nap before work. later people.
[10:11] <AWOSLappy> tannerld: :o
[10:11] <aLeSD> ... wow ... a lot of people here
[10:11] <Dazzler> hi all
[10:11] <mylogic> AWOSLappy: I saw it the other day... it goes by a different name, but it's forked from ubuntu but designed specifically for PPC based arch's
[10:11] <tannerld> AWOSLappy: do you know how to get the verbose output of a cmd?
[10:11] <qats1> brooksbp: http://www.google.com.mx/search?q=api+mismatch+nvidia&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=com.ubuntu:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
[10:11] <AWOSLappy> brandon_ you must have the "print stuff on bootup" enabled, I don't remember exactly what it was
[10:11] <ferronica> aLeSD: i wanna use it as web cam for chat
[10:11] <sldkfj> brandon_, enjoy counting the sheep.
[10:11] <nickrud> Dybber, gksudo uses /root as the home directory
[10:11] <AWOSLappy> tannerld: --verbose ?
[10:11] <AWOSLappy> tannerld: what command?
[10:11] <tannerld> AWOSLappy: ./configure and make when compiling bzflag :P
[10:11] <czr> is this the proper channel to report a slight bug in launchpad site or where should I do it?
[10:12] <tomer> anyone know a good IRC channel for doing music processing on the PC
[10:12] <aLeSD> ferronica: ok ... I will help u
[10:12] <aLeSD> ferronica: r u f ?
[10:12] <aLeSD> lol
[10:12] <czr> nm, using launchpad of course :-)
[10:12] <tomer> e.g. i want to record midi on my linux machine from my drums, etc
[10:12] <erUSUL> brooksbp: you instaled the kernel module from the *run package found in nvidia.com site... (or you used envy)
[10:12] <ferronica> aLeSD: okay
[10:12] <ferronica> aLeSD: i am using GAIM
[10:12] <AWOSLappy> tannerld: ./configure is verbose;  make is too.
[10:12] <aLeSD> ferronica: gaim doesn't support video chat
[10:12] <AWOSLappy> tomer: #music ?
[10:12] <rizzo_> lockd: that's a possibility.  Have you tried doing this from a live cd?
[10:12] <brooksbp> erUSUL: so i need to then do...
[10:13] <tomer> ok ill try that
[10:13] <ferronica> aLeSD: then what i use???
[10:13] <aLeSD> ferronica: amsn yes

[10:13] <ferronica> aLeSD: you MSN only
[10:13] <qats1> tomer: / join #channel
[10:13] <lockd> rizzo_: and I won't, I won't risk writing right over my Ubuntu installation without thinking
[10:13] <tomer> ok thanks
[10:13] <ferronica> aLeSD: for that i need ID for  MSN
[10:13] <erUSUL> brooksbp: you either use the one packaged or the one from nvidia.com.... reinstall nvidia-glx or reinstall the nvidia.com one
[10:14] <aLeSD> ferronica: what ?
[10:14] <n2diy> tomer:  /join #channel-name

[10:15] <rizzo_> lockd: it might be risk, but it's possible you would gain some insight into the problem
[10:15] <aLeSD> ferronica: to call me
[10:15] <ferronica> aLeSD: how to use it
[10:15] <rizzo_> risky
[10:15] <lockd> rizzo_: i will just use ntfs3g and copy file by file
[10:15] <ericnlnl> ekiga was gnomemeeting - h323 voice over ip client, netmeeting compatible
[10:15] <aLeSD> ferronica: create an account and call me to my account
[10:15] <lockd> rizzo_: images must be formatted before hand
[10:15] <Loguisbious> has anyone installed kbuntu on a mac book pro?
[10:15] <aLeSD> ferronica: something like netmeeting
[10:15] <ferronica> aLeSD: can i use it, and do video chat tooo
[10:16] <lockd> rizzo_: well, wait.. I might need to use the ancient captive-ntfs because only windows might handle it
[10:16] <aLeSD> ferronica: but you can call phones too
[10:16] <aLeSD> ferronica: of course
[10:16] <ferronica> kool
[10:16] <ferronica> aLeSD: okay tell me how to call

[10:17] <rizzo_> lockd: take a look at this http://www.nishants.net/articles/ntfsresize.htm
[10:17] <lockd> rizzo_: the problem is that I never actually formatted the partition, and the image is meant to go onto an entire disk (/dev/sda)
[10:17] <aLeSD> ferronica: lol ... ferronica ...
[10:17] <aLeSD> ferronica: it's easy
[10:17] <ferronica> aLeSD: how
[10:17] <ericnlnl> see you!
[10:17] <Loguisbious> macbook pro and ubuntu ?!?!
[10:17] <Loguisbious> anyone?
[10:17] <ferronica> aLeSD: what is first step
[10:17] <rizzo_> lockd: but that shouldn't keep you from resizing it, should it?
[10:17] <lockd> rizzo_: would work if ntfsresize didn't balk
[10:18] <aLeSD> ferronica: start it and follow the white rabbit .. after ask me my account
[10:18] <blackjackel> anyone know where programs are normally installed in ubuntu? I want to know where to run sancho from

[10:19] <ciaron> is there an easy to  add the desktop stuff to a ubuntu-server install?

[10:20] <silent_> hey, I'm reading a guide on events and evdev, however, it describes a file /etc/udev/rules.d/19-local.rules, which does not exist on my system. Has this file been moved since edgy?

[10:22] <finalbeta_> If I booted my ubuntu desktop, it holds at the login screen, How can I take over the screen? VNCserver doesn't run yet.  I have ssh access to the box.
[10:22] <uberushaximus> wouldn't it be apt-get search?
[10:22] <andre> Hola!, Compaeros

[10:34] <KDan> great, now by trying to install the .deb directly I've screwed up my apt dependencies... it now refers to packages that don't exist... anyone know how to fix the apt dependencies?
[10:34] <troy_> i have all dependenciers met
[10:34] <kenthomson> erUSUL: please tell me the commands, i am on the live cd right now
[10:34] <rizzo_> lockd: well that's of course up to you; sorry wish I could be of more help :)
[10:34] <lockd> rizzo_: it's because block devices, well, are extremely painful to deal with
[10:34] <KDan> "package lame is not available, but is referred to by another package"

[10:35] <kenthomson> erUSUL: will this work "mount -t ext3 ****"? for ext3?
[10:35] <lockd> rizzo_: also due to the fact that I've got a full 80 gigs to install to
[10:35] <KDan> how can i tell which package is looking for "lame" but not finding it?
[10:36] <lockd> rizzo_: unlike the 50 I believed earlier
[10:36] <kenthomson> KDan: audacity looks for lame if you try to export your files as mp3
[10:36] <uberushaximus> troy_, also make sure you have the correct -dev packages
[10:36] <rizzo_> lockd: but at the same time there *has* to be a way...you know?
[10:36] <erUSUL> blackjackel: :( i do not know what else try as i said i compile it to be just a donkey client so for me that's the expected behavior
[10:36] <kenthomson> KDan: i think it can be solved by doing a symlink somewhere in the directory to point to your latest lame library
[10:36] <kenthomson> KDan: i don't know much
[10:36] <rolnyzx> KDan, you could try apt-cache search lame
[10:36] <erUSUL> kenthomson: 'sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/xxxx /mnt/'
[10:36] <lockd> rizzo_: of course i think someone stole my disk
[10:37] <lockd> rizzo_: literally, not just pirated
[10:37] <ph8> hey all
[10:37] <rizzo_> lockd: ?
[10:37] <KDan> rolnyzx: yeah but that tells me the packages in the whole world that use lame
[10:37] <ph8> can anyone think why the installer would cause my new machine to 'just die' (tm) when i run it?
[10:37] <ph8> just playing with the kubuntu-latest-stable install cd
[10:37] <ph8> i can do the memory test
[10:37] <ph8> but the installer seems to crash the machine (new, just built)
[10:38] <kenthomson> erUSUL: am looking at the menu.lst now
[10:38] <nickrud> KDan, aptitude search lame will give you just the packages that have lame in the name
[10:38] <uberushaximus> ph8, did you check the checksum on the ISO?
[10:38] <mildner> hello
[10:38] <erUSUL> kenthomson: can you post it to paste.ubuntu-nl.org ??
[10:38] <mildner> how can I mount my cd drive again
[10:38] <KDan> nickrud: i'm trying to fix a broken "missing package". Tried to install a .deb and somehow now it thinks "package lame is not available, but is referred to by another package"
[10:38] <rolnyzx> ph8 have you do a cd check?
[10:38] <kenthomson> erUSUL: in all the 4 problematic kernel entries it contains "root		(hd1,0)" whereas i am having ubuntu on hd0, would correcting it to (hd0,0) do the trick?
[10:39] <kenthomson> erUSUL: or do you want me to past-bin it?
[10:39] <uberushaximus> ph8?
[10:39] <nickrud> KDan, the package you dpkg'd in probably recommends or suggests lame; remove it first
[10:39] <kazol> I have a problem running the cmd "mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/hda2": I get "mdadm: Couldn't open /dev/hda2 for write - not zeroing"
[10:39] <KDan> nickrud: i didn't install it though
[10:40] <KDan> it wanted another package, that wasn't there
[10:40] <KDan> and dpkg -r tells me it's not installed

[10:40] <ph8> doesn't the defect checker use the same kernel as the installer?
[10:40] <nickrud> KDan, just like that
[10:40] <KDan> ok, typed it

[10:43] <ph8> it's the amd64 version if that makes a difference
[10:43] <CheshireViking> erUSUL, he's gone
[10:43] <ph8> i suppose i could try i386 as well, it's just time!
[10:43] <Mathdiver> rolnyzx: thx, i will give a look
[10:43] <garryFre> I am having boot times of 100 minutes after getting the latest feisty kernel 2.6.20-16-generic, If I load the previous kernel 2.6.17-11-generic I get a normal boot time but the gnome startup fails because the nvidia glx is for the latest kernel and not for this one. Someone suggested I try latancy kernel and it hangs when trying to install. I also get License Nvidia taints kernel and I get interrupt lost and interrupt recovery
[10:43] <garryFre>  in my system log. Any clues please? I've done lots of internet research to no avail
[10:44] <sainzeo> @ph8: did you download the ISO from www.ubuntu.com? that should have the LiveCD right in it unless you downloaded the alternate ISO
[10:44] <Dazzler> Paddy_EIRE: got the driver installed... flashing light
[10:44] <erUSUL> CheshireViking: too bad :(
[10:44] <ph8> oh
[10:44] <ph8> yes i did
[10:44] <Dazzler> gonna try a reboot... be back shortly
[10:44] <ph8> hmm, i might have missed the option
[10:44] <ikonia> garryFre:2.6.20-16 is the latest
[10:44] <Paddy_EIRE> Dazzler, nice one
[10:44] <jwhitlark> 29
[10:44] <uberushaximus> Who would I contact if I were interested in administrating the ubuntu-wisconsin LoCo?
[10:44] <sainzeo> @ph8: 7.04 right?
[10:44] <rizzo_> lockd: ? what happened? I thought that's exactly what you didn't want to do.
[10:44] <lockd> rizzo_: i know
[10:44] <nano_> hola
[10:45] <ph8> yeh 7.04 desktop amd64 iso
[10:45] <garryFre> I know and that's what I'm having these horrible boot times with.
[10:45] <lockd> rizzo_: well, i wiped the partition but recovery.. bleh
[10:45] <lxuser> I was here earlier and was told to replace vesa with nv. That worked, however when I try to reinstall the restricted nvidea drivers it crashes when X starts. Any ideas?
[10:45] <Paddy_EIRE> Dazzler, I read somewhere that an opensource driver for that chipset will be on the horizon! hooray! :)
[10:45] <garryFre> ikonia I know and that's what I'm having these horrible boot times with.
[10:45] <lockd> rizzo_: at least it won't destroy the kernel and boot partition
[10:45] <sainzeo> @ph8: the first open should be then Start or Install Ubuntu or something like that
[10:45] <ph8> yep i see that
[10:45] <uberushaximus> lxuser, do you have the restricted headers?
[10:45] <sainzeo> *option
[10:45] <ikonia> garryFre: what makes you think its nvidia related
[10:45] <uberushaximus> and restriced modules?
[10:45] <ph8> then when i select the top one, it seems to die
[10:46] <lxuser> uberushaximus: I should
[10:46] <nano_> en espaol
[10:46] <rizzo_> lockd: was your /home partition expendable?
[10:46] <ompaul> !es | nano_
[10:46] <ubotu> nano_: Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[10:46] <sainzeo> @ph8: well i have a feeling you won't be able to get windows on there either...like it may just shut the computer down as wel
[10:46] <ph8> that would be a shame
[10:46] <ph8> but what could cause that?
[10:46] <rizzo_> lockd: or did you have one?
[10:46] <ph8> i'm 90% all the parts are in properly
[10:46] <ph8> but why would it die without an error?
[10:46] <lxuser> uberushaximus: It wouldnt let me run the "Restricted Drivers Manager" until I did.
[10:47] <sainzeo> @ph8: memory perhaps?
[10:47] <ph8> it's been on continuously for the memtest so far no problem
[10:47] <ph8> 20% and counting
[10:47] <ph8> btw
[10:47] <ph8> was Conroe the dual core?
[10:47] <garryFre> ikonia Experience, with going to earlier kernel, I have to load earlier driver for the kernel I use via package manager.
[10:47] <ph8> i've got a quad core in this and mem test says "Intel Conroe..."
[10:47] <ikonia> garryFre: what ?
[10:47] <ikonia> what makes you think its anything to do with nvidia
[10:47] <sainzeo> @ph8: i would just try windows after the memtest and see what happens
[10:47] <lxuser> I suppose I can remove those packages and try to redownload them.
[10:47] <uberushaximus> lxuser, I had a similar problem, with the nv module disabled, try adding the nvidia-glx-new package?
[10:47] <lockd> rizzo_: yes
[10:48] <ph8> will do - i have an exam tomorrow though so i should probably do some work!
[10:48] <lxuser> I can try
[10:48] <lockd> rizzo_: expendable
[10:48] <garryFre> The system log says so Iknoia
[10:48] <sainzeo> @ph8: you have checked the md5sum of the iso and checked the cd for defects in that menu right?
[10:48] <reevester> shouldnt the alternate CD require less resources during installation?
[10:48] <uberushaximus> lxuser, to fix x I just removed the xorg.conf file while I was playing with it
[10:48] <uberushaximus> :)
[10:48] <reevester> did anyone else have the issue of the installed stopping at 75% saying 'Storing Language' ????
[10:48] <ph8> oo
[10:48] <ph8> md5 sum
[10:48] <ph8> good though
[10:48] <ph8> t
[10:48] <lxuser> OK, I'll give it a whirl.
[10:48] <intransigent> So when I compile and do a make a&& make install will it overwrite the previous compile and install?
[10:48] <garryFre> But, its not having a problem with the new kernel, I'm using it now but it takes almost two hours  to boot it.
[10:49] <fenix_> saludos
[10:49] <uberushaximus> reevester, I suggesed that earlier D:
[10:49] <garryFre> and system log has long lines of interrupt lost errors
[10:49] <v3n0m`> hji
[10:49] <ikonia> garryFre: why would that be anything to do with nvidia
[10:49] <sainzeo> @ph8: i gotta run though, good luck with it
[10:49] <v3n0m`> I can't open a DVD disc for some reason..?
[10:49] <ikonia> garryFre: in the output you've just said - what suggests its nvidia
[10:50] <reevester> im sorry i missed what u suggest buddy....could you please repeat what u said?
[10:50] <garryFre> ikonia Ok, I'm done speaking with you, either you don't know Engliish or aren't paying attention
[10:50] <ikonia> garryFre: I am fine with english, you've just shown nothing to suggest this is anything to do with nvidia
[10:50] <fenix_> cual es la sala que este en espaol
[10:50] <ikonia> garryFre: what part of the syslog is suggesting its nvidia ?
[10:50] <ikonia> !es >fenix_
[10:50] <ber1> how do i cancel all print jobs? i try to right-click and cancel them under the printer dialogue and it says "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-not-found'." and i can't print, how do i stop it? please help
[10:50] <garryFre> Iconia if you can't pay attention go away, the system log says "License "Nvidia" taints kernel
[10:50] <finalbeta_> I have a remote desktop sitting at the logon screen. How do I log in from ssh and then access it through vnc, why can't vino start at gdm anyway?
[10:51] <ikonia> garryFre: watch your manners, that is a normal warning
[10:51] <ikonia> garryFre: due to the driver being closed source
[10:51] <agbeladem> heyy!
[10:51] <ikonia> garryFre: thats not an error
[10:51] <agbeladem> lol
[10:51] <agbeladem> I come
[10:51] <ikonia> garryFre: so as I say, what makes you think this is anything to do with nvidia
[10:51] <agbeladem> they all leave
[10:51] <doublebind> hallo??
[10:52] <aoirthoir> yes doublebind ?
[10:52] <kitche> garryFre: they added that warning instead of disableing all binary blobs
[10:52] <reevester> man even alternate CD installation suxxx :|
[10:52] <ph8> md5sums checkout
[10:52] <ph8> and as i say the memtest on the cd is running fine
[10:52] <ph8> maybe it'll work on reboot
[10:52] <ph8> cock knows! :p
[10:52] <agbeladem> Does anyone wanna talk here ? :D
[10:52] <intransigent> If I compile a program from source, then do a make && make install but want to recompile and reinstall and want to redo it and do the same process will it overwrite it
[10:52] <doublebind> hi aoirthoir ^^
[10:52] <luiX_> uit
[10:52] <garryFre> and as I told you before, when I have had to use an earlier kernel, the gnome fails to restart until I load the nvidia-glx for that kernel, however I do not think its a problem with Nvidia.
[10:52] <doublebind> can you pls help me out?
[10:52] <kitche> garryFre: since one of their developers actually tried to disable all binary drivers
[10:52] <ikonia> garryFre: then why are you saying its a problem with nvidia
[10:52] <aoirthoir> doublebind, go ahead ask your question.
[10:53] <ber1> how do i cancel all print jobs? i'm trying but it keeps saying "There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-not-found'." and i can't cancel two of the jobs
[10:53] <doublebind> ok privat or in channel?
[10:53] <garryFre> I did not ssay that Ikonia you just thought I did
[10:53] <agbeladem> Oo
[10:53] <MonsieurBon> why does my display dim perfectly, when I wet the graficdriver to vesa, but blanks out every time i want to dim, if it's set to i810?
[10:53] <aoirthoir> doublebind, ask your question in here. If its something I can help you with I will pm.
[10:53] <xaaax> hi I have a big Problem some keys on my keyboard went bely up and now i cant login to my installation becase I cant type the key Can I change the password with the live cd< thanks
[10:53] <doublebind> thx
[10:53] <doublebind> one mom
[10:54] <t94xr> two mom
[10:54] <ikonia> garryFre: then why did you not say that
[10:54] <garryFre> Thanks for the clarification of the taints messag.e
[10:54] <ikonia> the taints kernel is a warning to suggest people to open source drivers, - don't worry about that
[10:54] <ber1> can someone please just tell me a command or something to cancel every running print job? i've deleted all my printers and i still can't cancel a print job thats messing up everything. please, someone help. please.
[10:54] <lxuser> uberushaximus: That seems to have corrected my issues, many thanks.
[10:54] <garryFre> please oh please get off that I said it was that, maybe I mistyped or you misread does it matter?
[10:54] <uberushaximus> no problem lxuser
[10:55] <garryFre> sorry, I keep forgetting to type the user name when sending a tell
[10:55] <ikonia> garryFre: its fine - I'm following ok
[10:55] <Lilacor> xaaax: buy a new usb keyboard
[10:55] <ikonia> garryFre: you are using the stock kernels I take it
[10:55] <garryFre> ikonia yeah.
[10:55] <p1ls> hey whats the command to gzip something so it will be .tar.gz
[10:55] <ikonia> garryFre: ok, whats the error message about the interupts
[10:55] <doublebind> aoirthoir... i want to delete 3 different files in one directory.. this folder contains various subdirectorys... i tried rm -r and rmdir... but i ony couldn't delete in the subdirs.
[10:55] <ServerSide> Exist it a log of the terminal ? Where ?
[10:55] <KDan> could it be that these two lines in my sources.list are incorrect?
[10:56] <Lilacor> p1ls: you tar it first, then you gzip it
[10:56] <KDan> deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[10:56] <ikonia> p1ls: tar
[10:56] <KDan> deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[10:56] <aoirthoir> doublebind, i am pming you.
[10:56] <garryFre> interrrupt lost, followed by interrupt recovery. I'm not sure which comes first, there are so many. I first get a fail loading hardware drivers.
[10:56] <teamwork> how do I make Ubuntu boot faster?
[10:56] <darkstar> hello all
[10:56] <p1ls> how u tar it then
[10:56] <ikonia> garryFre: does it suggest about a device on that at all
[10:57] <ikonia> p1ls: man tar
[10:57] <roaet> Hello.
[10:57] <teamwork> man man
[10:57] <kitche> p1ls: you have to use tar -xvf <filename>.tar.gz or you can add -xvzf doesn't matter anymore which one you use now
[10:57] <ph8> ok
[10:57] <garryFre> ikonia unfortunately no.
[10:57] <ph8> i'm at the main screen
[10:57] <ph8> start or install kubuntu
[10:57] <xaaax> its kind of an emergency
[10:57] <ph8> start in safe gfx mode
[10:57] <KDan> could it be that these two lines in my sources.list are incorrect?
[10:57] <KDan> deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[10:57] <ph8> install with update cd
[10:57] <KDan> deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ dapper-backports main restricted universe multiverse
[10:57] <ph8> check for defects
[10:57] <roaet> I'm having some difficult network problems with my ubuntu box. It is hard to describe as well, so if anyone is willing to take the time to listen as I attempt to, I would be quite thankfulk
[10:57] <ph8> check for defects loads the kernel
[10:57] <ph8> quick error and then it dies :(
[10:57] <ikonia> garryFre: you can try - and this is only a suggestion as there is little to go on, booting the kernel without apci support (interupt alloaction) and seeing if it complains about a specific device
[10:57] <tdoggette> Hey. I have two sound devices, an integrated Intel and a SBLive! card. Ubuntu recognises them both, and I can adjust sound levels on both, but I can only get sound to play from the Intel, and the Intel's left side doesn't work. How can I get my machine to use the SB card instead?
[10:57] <ph8> i did see it that time
[10:57] <garryFre> ikonia my mb is an intel perl d856 perl
[10:58] <ph8> is there a way to stop it rebooting on error so i can see it? some option i can add to boot perhaps?
[10:58] <reevester> why cant ubuntu make a special package where i just need to extract the stuff onto the disc to install ubuntu???
[10:58] <darkstar> hey roaet whats the problem
[10:58] <garryFre> oh yes, is it acpi=off in the grub boot line?
[10:58] <ikonia> reevester: they can its called the installer
[10:58] <silent_> What is the cli command to tell X to switch to workspace right or left?
[10:58] <lxuser> just curious, what is the preferred IRC client in linux? I am not a huge fan of XChat
[10:58] <Mathdiver> bye
[10:58] <garryFre> !acpi
[10:58] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acpi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:58] <intangir> tdoggette: there should be a selector in the system menus somewhere
[10:59] <Mathdiver> see you next time
[10:59] <teamwork> irssi
[10:59] <silent_> lxuser, xchat is the best I know, however I did get mIRC working with WINE
[10:59] <ikonia> garryFre: apci
[10:59] <ikonia> acpi
[10:59] <ikonia> ugghh
[10:59] <ikonia> typo
[10:59] <reevester> suppose i just want to extract the entire root packages in windows on a hard drive?
[10:59] <tdoggette> intangir: It's not in Preferences: Sound.
[10:59] <Griz> my grub menu got screwed up and i cant seem to fix it, i tried editing menu.lst, reinstalling grub and everything but the menu never changes, its pointin to the wrong partitions, i tried adding new entries but they clearly arent there, and i tried renistalling grub like 10 times
[10:59] <intangir> or i think you can use udev to set the SBLive as /dev/dsp
[10:59] <reevester> now that would be nrat!
[10:59] <ikonia> reevester: you don't
[10:59] <lxuser> it seems everyone has different tastes haha
[10:59] <garryFre> ikonia I can typo at 70 mispells per second.
[10:59] <reevester> *neat!
[10:59] <fxfitz> I'm using Feisty on a Dell e1505 laptop and I'm trying to use an external monitor. IHow do I go about setting this up???
[10:59] <intangir> oss stuff will then use it by default, i forget how to set the default for alsa, i think it was in the settings someplace
[10:59] <tdoggette> intangir: how?
[10:59] <silent_> Griz, how did you reinstall grub?
[10:59] <intangir> or maybe with some sort of config
[11:00] <garryFre> sudo gedit and then open menu.lst it might be opening read only
[11:00] <reevester> at the login screen on the LIVE CD.....what do you enter????????????????
[11:00] <p1ls> kitche, i want to make it an archive not unpack it...
[11:00] <intangir> tdoggette: i had that problem beforei, it ended up being easier to just disable the onboard sound card from the bios
[11:00] <illriginal> Hey guys, I have a question! How would I be able to modify the script in the taskbar such as what windows are open and the time, including the "applications, places, system" from black to white color font?
[11:00] <ikonia> p1ls: man tar
[11:00] <Fathefner> my updates are acting weird http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23298/HardDisk this is what i get
[11:00] <uberushaximus> reevester, umm normally nothing
[11:00] <tdoggette> Okay.
[11:00] <garryFre> also check to see if you have grub/grub/grub somehow I had the loaoder make a bunch of grub folder dupes under each other.
[11:00] <tdoggette> BIOS it is.
[11:00] <silent_> reevester, one question mark usually works
[11:00] <KDan> why would my apt somehow ignore the multiverse stuff?
[11:00] <reevester> its saying 'User ubuntu will login in 2 seconds'
[11:00] <KDan> it is listed in sources.list
[11:01] <roaet> darkstar: the problem is that the ubuntu box will lose it's connection to the network, maintain it's IP, but appear to have lost its IP to everyone else.
[11:01] <reevester> so do i let it just count down?????
[11:01] <KDan> i have done an apt-get update
[11:01] <uberushaximus> KDan, have you updated your package list since?
[11:01] <uberushaximus> sudo apt-get update
[11:01] <kitche> p1ls: ok then it will be tar -cvzf <filename>.tar.gz files but a gui program works better but man is very helpful since I don't know how to do it for multiple files exactly
[11:01] <kane77> i have a problem with a dvd drive, it reads cd's alright, but when it comes to dvd's it always displays only that the disc is empty, I tried it on different computers and it runs OK, what could be the cause? (the ones that it works on are a bit newer, the other is duron 1Ghz....)
[11:01] <silent_> reevester, try using one question mark for questions
[11:01] <roaet> darkstar: it is intermittent and only goes down every couple minutes or so.
[11:01] <garryFre> Is the grub command to turn off acpi acp=off?
[11:01] <dontcho--> hi all :) I use internet by lan and by wi-fi, but not both at time.... is there way to use both lan and wifi in some time ?
[11:01] <asdf_> can anyone tell me if it's possible to run beryl on a macbook?
[11:01] <roaet> darkstar: it also seems to fail quickly after someone tries to SSH into it.
[11:01] <ikonia> garryFre: yes, I think so
[11:01] <ikonia> asdf_: the depends on the graphics card
[11:02] <garryFre> Thanks Kindly ikonia, I'lll try that.
[11:02] <silent_> dontcho, probably, what do you want to do with both? make an access point?
[11:02] <asdf_> ikonia: I'm using a macbook (not macbook pro)
[11:02] <ikonia> garryFre: it won't do much, but it may give a better warning/error
[11:02] <uberushaximus> asdf_, under ubuntu correct?
[11:02] <asdf_> uberushaximus: yes
[11:02] <JairunCaloth> Ok, I have to quick questions. I still haven't upgraded to fiesty and have been considering using dist-upgrade. Is dist-upgrade a good way to upgrade or are there still too many problems with it. Second is there a good linux alternative to MS's One Note?
[11:02] <roaet> darkstar: it is setup for samba, NFS, Apache with php and ssh of course.
[11:02] <Griz> silent_: i tried mounting my linux partition and using "grub-install --root-directory=/mnt/root /dev/sda --no-floppy" with and without --recheck
[11:02] <dontcho--> silent_ that's right but when I up AP lan is down :((
[11:02] <garryFre> ikonia yeah, I removed quiet so I could see some more info too.
[11:02] <intangir> JairunCaloth: i  think running update-manager is easiest
[11:02] <uberushaximus> JairunCaloth, there is nothing wrong with dist upgrade
[11:02] <silent_> dontcho--, sorry I dont have that much experience with networking yet
[11:03] <intangir> and then there is a button on it for upgrading to edgy
[11:03] <KDan> uberushaximus: yes, i've updated many times, in the vain hope that maybe that would fix it
[11:03] <Griz> i also tried using grub manually and entering "root (hd0,0)" and "setup (hd0)"
[11:03] <uberushaximus> I personally love apt-get...
[11:03] <KDan> uberushaximus: me too
[11:03] <teamwork> remove init-scripts or blacklist modules to get a faster boot?  anything else.
[11:03] <KDan> uberushaximus: except when it breaks
[11:03] <dontcho--> silent_ no problem :)
[11:03] <uberushaximus> KDan, that's what aptitude is for ;D
[11:03] <illriginal> Does anyone know how to change the font color of taskbar and menu list on the desktop?
[11:03] <lxuser> KDan, haha
[11:03] <Griz> not only can i not boot anything, but i cant even change the menu entries
[11:03] <ph8> uberushaximus: i've run install without quiet and with nosplash and vga=771
[11:03] <paintcan> Does anyone know how I can play MPEG in my firefox browser..
[11:03] <mctiernanja> hello
[11:03] <aoirthoir>  in Ubuntu there is a PLACES->Search For FIles menu...does XUBUNTU have anything similar to find all files in a dir or on the file system?
[11:04] <ph8> and it's got all the way to "configuring network interfaces" but now it's stuck
[11:04] <silent_> Griz, what partition is your OS on?
[11:04] <ph8> which suggests software error no? as network is onboard-mobo?
[11:04] <rolnyzx> aoirthoir, use find -iname keyword
[11:04] <garryFre> Ok, here goes.
[11:04] <ph8> do you know of a way i can skip this step?
[11:04] <Griz> afaik hd0,0 should be right, the livecd calls it /dev/sda1
[11:04] <ServerSide> Brb
[11:04] <kitche> aoirthoir: each linux has slocate you can tyr that with sudo updatedb && locate <file>
[11:04] <teamwork> Ok, I had some issues w/ dist-upgrade, too.  best is backup /home and /usr and re-install.
[11:04] <ph8> i can switch to other terminals (no prompt yet) - so it's not frozen
[11:04] <ServerSide> I go to play ET =D
[11:04] <uberushaximus> ph8, umm I've had really long boots with the whole network thing myself, when the person is using broadcom
[11:04] <aoirthoir> rolnyzx, Thanks kindly. But I am looking for a graphical form so you can see it like in ubuntu and then mass delete.
[11:05] <ph8> it's built onto my abit
[11:05] <roaet> I'm having some difficult network problems with my ubuntu box. It is hard to describe as well, so if anyone is willing to take the time to listen as I attempt to, I would be quite thankful. ^_^

[11:05] <aoirthoir> kitche,  Thanks kindly. But I am looking for a graphical form so you can see it like in ubuntu and then mass delete.
[11:05] <Griz> silent_: ive tried that
[11:05] <uberushaximus> ph8 I really don't know, it could have been like 15-20 :/

[11:05] <illriginal> lxuser would you be able to help me step by step on how to change the font color? I have a dark background and I cannot see the date/time nor the name of the windows I have opened
[11:05] <ph8> he's pm'ing me harrassing me for responses

[11:06] <illriginal> I went to System, Preference, Theme, but there's no "color" option
[11:06] <uberushaximus> paintcan, well you could install vlc with the browser plugin
[11:06] <Griz> silent_: i got grub to reinstall on the MBR, (yes as root) but it wont boot anything, looking at the menu.lst file it seems to point to the wrong partitions, but i dont know how to change those entries, i tried changing them in the menu.lst (just added new entries) but they dont appear in the menu, even after installing grub again
[11:06] <illriginal> wait, I see it now hold on! lsuser

[11:07] <lxuser> illriginal, im a bit slow but i will try. OK, In the system menu under preferences
[11:07] <shiryu> someone can help me?
[11:07] <MystaMax> I think I messed up my group permissions. I can't run sudo commands anymore. I don't get an error, it just doesn't display anything
[11:07] <silent_> Griz, you have to save the file as root, it will change, it must
[11:07] <lxuser> illriginal, at the bottom click on themes
[11:07] <shiryu> i think i already installed java
[11:07] <silent_> sudo nano the file
[11:07] <shiryu> but it didnt open
[11:07] <Griz> silent_: i did
[11:08] <shiryu> or i need to install something more to open frostwire?
[11:08] <paintcan> uverushaximus, thanks ill try that
[11:08] <illriginal> right?
[11:08] <Griz> silent_ i can cat the file right now and it shows different entries than the ones that show on boot
[11:08] <lxuser> illriginal, to the right It says "Customize"
[11:08] <illriginal> right
[11:08] <paintcan> rolnyzx, thanks ill try that to
[11:08] <rolnyzx> MystaMax, live CD and edit your user file
[11:08] <illriginal> input boxes?
[11:08] <p1ls> ikona, so i do tar -c file_name right?
[11:08] <HardDisk> shiryu: no
[11:08] <silent_> Griz, is your bios set to boot off of that device?
[11:08] <lxuser> illriginal, click on that and at the top there should be a tab called colors
[11:08] <Baalial> I Quite recently, approximately a month ago, I wiped Windows XP completely off my drive and installed Ubuntu, Feisty Fawn. Everything was going quite okay, with my wireless network, already ready-to-go with Ubuntu's pre-installed drivers. But recently, my connection has become weak. Moving from web-page to web-page has become long and tiresome. Frequently while on GAIM, my connection will die out, but my client will not notice 
[11:08] <HardDisk> shiryu: except for java
[11:08] <Griz> yes, i only have one drive
[11:08] <MystaMax> rolnyzx, which user file?
[11:08] <illriginal> lsuser right
[11:08] <Baalial> Does anyone know what to do?
[11:08] <illriginal> lxuser*
[11:08] <KDan> aptitude can't see any 'lame' packages either
[11:08] <shiryu> mm i downloaded the one that is in synaptic
[11:08] <Griz> silent_ i only have one drive, it goes to the grub menu but i don know where its getting those entries
[11:09] <lxuser> illriginal, to the left are your back ground colors and to the right there are text colors. I think that is what you want.
[11:09] <silent_> Griz, can you pastebin the file?
[11:09] <shiryu> or it is other harddisk?
[11:09] <KDan> they're all clearly listed on packages.ubuntu.com though
[11:09] <p1ls> how can i tar a file, tar -c filename/
[11:09] <eck> Baalial: it is probably a hardware issue
[11:09] <KDan> basically i can't see any multiverse packages
[11:09] <lxuser> I think "Window" is your menu also  illriginal
[11:09] <eck> Baalial: this is a wireless connection in your house?
[11:09] <HardDisk> shiryu: ya u need java for frostwire to work thats all you need.
[11:09] <KDan> which totally blows chunks seeing as i'm in the middle of trying to install ffmpeg
[11:09] <Baalial> Yes
[11:09] <illriginal> lxuser nope not it bro... alright do this lxuser, look on your taskbar where it shows the time (normally on the top right corner)
[11:09] <illriginal> lxuser you'll see that the font is black
[11:09] <shiryu> but it didnt open what can i do harddisk
[11:09] <eck> Baalial: check that the antenna is screwed in tightly to the port on the router, and check that the antenna is upright
[11:10] <Ben__> Hi, I can't get onto the internet in ubuntu. I was running it from a liveCD, and I'm connected to a network with an automatic proxy configuration url + authentication to get to the internet. Ununtu can 'see' the network and appears to connect to it fine, but even with Firefox set to use the proxy I can't get to webpages. I also can't see internal pages (within the network).
[11:10] <rolnyzx> MystaMax, the file that shows the groups your user belongs, i forgot the name
[11:10] <HardDisk> shiryu: try to reinstall java 6 and reinstall frostwire again.
[11:10] <illriginal> lxuser because my background is dark, I can barely see that text of the time because it's black
[11:10] <MystaMax> rolnyzx, /etc/groups
[11:10] <shiryu> mm ok
[11:10] <KDan> anyone know why the multiverse packages would all be not showing up in apt? (YES, I have done sudo apt-get update)
[11:10] <lxuser> illriginal: Sorry mate, I dont know how to edit that.
[11:10] <eck> Baalial: you can check the signal strength with iwlist device_name scanning
[11:10] <illriginal> understood
[11:10] <illriginal> #kubuntu
[11:10] <Baalial> This is a connection in my house
[11:10] <Baalial> My network drive is a D-Link DWL-G520
[11:10] <rolnyzx> MystaMax, yes
[11:11] <Baalial> eh?
[11:11] <Baalial> What is that done?
[11:11] <Baalial> *how is that done?
[11:11] <eck> Baalial: you want to check the signal quality with something like 'iwlist eth1 scanning'
[11:11] <Mike> has anyone installed CPAN's IPC-SysV-1.03 recently (and successfully?)
[11:11] <reevester> guys?? any reason why the alternate CD installation stops at 75% while 'Storing Language'?
[11:11] <LinuxHelp> Whats the difference between putting a hard drive to sleep and putting it into standby?
[11:11] <JairunCaloth> So does anyone know of a linux alternative to One Note?
[11:11] <mildner> hello anybody who can help me mount my CD drive
[11:11] <lxuser> reevester, dirty disk?
[11:12] <KDan> anyone know why the multiverse packages would all be not showing up in apt? (YES, I have done sudo apt-get update)
[11:12] <reevester> well the disc checked out.....i ran the CD Integrity check
[11:12] <JairunCaloth> KDan, are they added in your sources.list?
[11:12] <Mike> if I figure out my problem i'll post results....
[11:12] <KDan> yes
[11:12] <Baalial> So I just type iwlist eth1 scanning in the terminal?
[11:12] <silent_> Does anyone here know what command I can use to switch workspaces? sendevent or command?
[11:12] <lxuser> reevester, strange. I dont know what would help then.
[11:12] <reevester> does it take more than 15 minutes to complete the task of 'Storing Language'???
[11:12] <asdf_> where is the beryl-manager config file located?
[11:12] <reevester> i dont even see the HDD light blinking at that time!
[11:12] <KDan> anyone know why the multiverse packages would all be not showing up in apt? (YES, I have done sudo apt-get update after uncommenting the multiverse line in sources.list)
[11:12] <uberushaximus> asdf_, in .beryl
[11:12] <Griz> silent_: i think i might know what happened... need to reboot
[11:13] <HardDisk> reevester: dirty lense?
[11:13] <reevester> no its a brand new HDD
[11:13] <reverseblade> el
[11:13] <lxuser> reevester, not for me at least
[11:13] <teamwork> JairunCaloth, describe One Note.
[11:13] <reevester> and otherwise the installation works fine
[11:13] <reevester> ok chuck that
[11:13] <reverseblade> people for the first time PClinuxOS has passed ubuntu in distrowatch.com  for the last 30 days stack
[11:13] <lxuser> reevester, Try a different brand of CD-r perhaps.
[11:13] <KDan> anyone know why the multiverse packages would all be not showing up in apt? (YES, I have done sudo apt-get update after uncommenting the multiverse line in sources.list)
[11:13] <reevester> in the alternate cd....i want to install ubuntu such that the first 6 GB of my disk are unused.....and the rest is used for the system
[11:13] <reevester> how do i do that?
[11:13] <sk8inrox> Can someone help me getting beryl to work with the nvidia drivers..the window decorations arent showing up.
[11:13] <reevester> its a Moser-baer Gold Disc.....! :S
[11:14] <JairunCaloth> One Note is a "note taking" application from office. With office 2k7 it turned into a pretty powerful little app.
[11:14] <reevester> im not sure how to go about partitioning it!
[11:14] <purpzey> sk8inrox: #beryl
[11:14] <LinuxHelp> reevester, you can always try testing your hard disk by erasing it like "dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda" during the install but you will lose anything on it already
[11:14] <reevester> thats not a prob....i dont have anythin important on the disck
[11:14] <fxc> did the latest kernel update disable libata? my ide disk was sda, since two days is hda
[11:14] <sk8inrox> purpzey, okay thanks
[11:14] <Endlessguitar> can  some1 help me with configure my xconfig manuel please?
[11:14] <KDan> anyone know why the multiverse packages would all be not showing up in apt? (YES, I have done sudo apt-get update after uncommenting the multiverse line in sources.list)
[11:14] <JairunCaloth> One note is basicly a notebook on the computer, that you can put anything in pretty much, from picutres to entire documents
[11:15] <purpzey> fxc: I believe it affected that.
[11:15] <HardDisk> reevester: use partitionmagic to create first 6gb of empty space, then partition the rest for windows, then install ubuntu and let it use free available space it will pick out first 6gb
[11:15] <reevester> but its important that i install it with two partitions...the first empty & unused....and the second one for the system files and stuff
[11:15] <teamwork> JairunCaloth, tried Tomboy Notes?
 what are you trying to edit?
[11:15] <Baalial> eck, what do I do now?
[11:15] <ketiov> Can anyone tell me why my laptop doesn't seem to notice the Ubuntu CD during start up?
[11:15] <reevester> i dont want the first 6 GB to be used!
[11:15] <Endlessguitar> welI can try 2 explain  it
[11:15] <purpzey> ketiov: Did you change your boot options in BIOS?
[11:15] <HardDisk> you want it empty
[11:15] <fxc> I didn't find mention of bugs in libata (a quick search on launchpad)
[11:15] <nielsbosworth> after the automatic ubuntu packet upgrades yesterday my battery indicator is missing. When I try "acpi -V" in a terminal the battery information isn't shown either. Where should I look for the problem
[11:15] <JairunCaloth> teamwork I"ll take a look at it, thanks
[11:15] <illriginal> Can anyone help me with my desktop settings? Changing the font color of the menulist, date/time, etc...
[11:15] <reevester> i want it left as an unused partition....for future saves
[11:16] <ketiov> purpzey: Yes, I tried changing all kinds of stuff in there. Nothing.
[11:16] <Chetwin> can anyone tell me how to install ubuntu from an internet repository??
[11:16] <cornsnap> Is there a way to determine what driver is loading for a certain device?
[11:16] <HardDisk> same difference, when u setup ubuntu, choose manual partitioning and select partitions you want used.
[11:16] <purpzey> fxc: I might be wrong.
[11:16] <KDan> anyone know why the multiverse packages would all be not showing up in apt? (YES, I have done sudo apt-get update after uncommenting the multiverse line in sources.list)\
[11:16] <purpzey> ketiov: Not, all kinds of stuff. Your boot options.
[11:16] <reevester> lol...thats where i am confused.....i dunno how to setup the partitions....its kinda confusing in the text entry mode!
[11:16] <ph8> uberushaximus: you were right - it's continued now
 go ahead.
[11:16] <reevester> i have to set the bootable flag to Yes?
[11:16] <Endlessguitar> my computer have been on service and they changed my hardrive, and now , after have I restalled linux but I need to configure the xconfig manuel for the  graphic stuff will work one pro in here did it least time but when I did it 3 times have the computer fucked up
[11:16] <reevester> and what mount point do i select?
[11:16] <uberushaximus> ph8, glad to assist
[11:16] <p1ls> so to tar a file you do tar -cvvf name.tar /folder, how do you do with two files
[11:16] <HardDisk> Chetwin: http://mywheel.net/blog/index.php/ubuntu-network-install/
[11:16] <ph8> although it's not at a desktop yet :p
[11:16] <Slart> cornsnap: you can always look at lsmod and try to figure things out
[11:16] <Chetwin> ty
[11:17] <purpzey> fxc: Could also probably ask in #ubuntu-kernel, if it's just a question and not support.
[11:17] <ph8> it's just cleared the screen after OS POST
[11:17] <cornsnap> OK I'll try thanks.
[11:17] <p1ls> so to tar a file you do tar -cvvf name.tar /folder, how do you do with two files
[11:17] <uberushaximus> ph8, oh sure, the first live boot takes ages
[11:17] <uberushaximus> sometimes that is
[11:17] <KDan> anyone know why the multiverse packages would all be not showing up in apt? (YES, I have done sudo apt-get update after uncommenting the multiverse line in sources.list)\
[11:17] <ph8> oh ok
 do you simply not know what to edit, or you dont know what to edit?
[11:17] <ph8> i haven't conciously selected it to be live btw
[11:17] <lxuser> that came out funny
[11:17] <ph8> will it always take so long with the network thing?
[11:17] <ph8> or will i be ablt to disable it once in an os?
[11:18] <illriginal> Can anyone help me with my desktop settings? Changing the font color of the menulist, date/time, etc...
 are you stuck in the terminal and you need to edit it? is that the problem?
[11:18] <fxc> thanks purpzey, I'll ask there. Just curious, not a real problem
[11:18] <HardDisk> KDan: did you install the gpg keys they required?
[11:18] <Baalial> eck: What should I do now?
[11:18] <uberushaximus> ph8, no, the first time I just think it searches through a lot of drivers or stalls or something
[11:18] <uberushaximus> it never will do that again
[11:18] <Endlessguitar> well when I come to the setup
[11:18] <Endlessguitar> the blue window
[11:18] <Endlessguitar> with all stuff
[11:18] <LinuxHelp> Is  hdparm  -Y /dev/hda  dangerous?
[11:18] <teamwork> KDan, file a bug.
[11:19] <LinuxHelp> Caus my hard drive seems to go to sleep immediately
[11:19] <Endlessguitar> when i come there and try to configure it right do I just wrong and then , have I to restall linux again lol
[11:19] <nielsbosworth> I cant get information about my laptop battery. When I try "acpi -V" in a terminal the battery information isn't shown either. until automatic upgrades yesterday it was fine. Where should I look for the problem
[11:19] <piotr_> hey guys I have drivers for my computer from nvidia , but I dont know if I should install them or not because it seems everything works fine until now without any driver installation
[11:19] <Chetwin> That was not the answer to my question unfortunately
[11:19] <ketiov> purpzey: I went into setup during start up, there was something about BIOS, with stuff like "Boot from CD, Boot from HD, Boot from floppy". That didn't work no matter what I did there. I also went into setup and tried some stuff in there, but nothing. I've tried a bunch of stuff. I'm not coming in here as a "pmg it dint wurk 1st time" guy, I'm trying stuff ;\
[11:19] <SlimeyPete> piotr_: if you don't need 3D acceleration, don't install them
[11:19] <Chetwin> can anyone point me in the right direction?  I'm looking for instructions and an internet server address to do a network install from
[11:19] <ribatejo> hi  guys, I am about to go nuts with my wife ;9
[11:20] <ribatejo> ;(
[11:20] <HardDisk> piotr_: use the restricted drivers that are available in system/administration/restricted drivers
 You can use the Restricted Package manager and it should do the work for you if you are using the latest version of ubuntu
[11:20] <piotr_> yes
[11:20] <Endlessguitar> okey
[11:20] <cox377> does anyone know what the commnand would be to make azureus boot at start up?
[11:20] <piotr_> I am doing it
[11:20] <Endlessguitar> how do I install it?
[11:20] <ribatejo> she wants things easy and I like linux] 
[11:20] <kane77> i have a problem with a dvd drive, it reads cd's alright, but when it comes to dvd's it always displays only that the disc is empty, I tried it on different computers and it runs OK, what could be the cause? (the ones that it works on are a bit newer, the other is duron 1Ghz....)
[11:20] <ribatejo> :)
[11:20] <purpzey> ketiov: if you are sure that the last time you set the boot options properly, I would check the CD...I mean, it's not any different than any other boot CD...I am guessing you made sure to exit bios and save changes?
[11:20] <Endlessguitar> I use
[11:20] <kane77> cox377, does azureus boot?
[11:20] <Endlessguitar> feisty fawn
[11:21] <lxuser> It is under system > administration > Restricted Driver Manager
[11:21] <ribatejo> I am trying to decide on ubuntu to install the PVR card
[11:21] <nielsbosworth> does anyone know anything about ACPI?
[11:21] <cox377> kane77: lol fair enough, auto start up!!?!
[11:21] <HardDisk> ribatejo: do the work for her if she will allow you to and her to do a threesome with another girl :)
[11:21] <HardDisk> two*
[11:21] <purpzey> What is the difference between su and sudo?
[11:21] <tjl30> hey does anyone know how I can change the name of a mounted drive?
[11:21] <HardDisk> su is short for sudo
[11:21] <kane77> cox377, look under system - preferences - sessions
[11:21] <ribatejo> HardDisk: that would be a good idea but she already told me no three some :(
[11:21] <HardDisk> damn.
[11:22] <nielsbosworth> purpzey: su is "switch user" sudo is " do as root"
[11:22] <Chetwin> Can anyone help me to find a tutorial on installing via internet
[11:22] <erisco> I have compiled something from source... how do I uninstall it now?
[11:22] <KDan> ribatejo: ask for a foursome
[11:22] <kane77> HardDisk, no it's not
[11:22] <HardDisk> :)
[11:22] <ketiov> purpzey: Uh, what are the proper boot options exactly >__>? Anything I changed, I saved, yes. And I had to download the .iso , I tried burning it on two different computers using just the normal burning thing and nero.
[11:22] <HardDisk> I know
[11:22] <ribatejo> eheheh
[11:22] <amattas> is vmware-server or vmware-workstation avail in any repo?
[11:22] <Griz> ok, grub says it cant mount the partition when i try to boot ubuntu now, after reinstalling grub (silent_, if your still around i could use your help :) )
[11:22] <KDan> ribatejo: then a fivesome
[11:22] <HardDisk> just kidding
[11:22] <hwilde> Anybody understand this error:  modprobe icard_cs;  FATAL: Error inserting icard_cs; (/lib/modules/2.6.17-10-386/kernel/drivers/pcmcia/icard_cs.ko): Invalid module format
[11:22] <Fathefner> HardDisk: http://rafb.net/p/F8f1XX74.html
[11:22] <KDan> ribatejo: she'll guess where you're going soon enough
[11:22] <ribatejo> bacanal with my wife...dunno about that
[11:22] <killown> what the best editor css?
[11:22] <erisco> like I used make and make install to compile the program... how do I uninstall?
[11:22] <teamwork> purpzey, su is "switch user".  sudo is "super user do"
[11:23] <HardDisk> Fathefner: bad.
[11:23] <killown> what the best editor css?
[11:23] <Fathefner> HardDisk: y
[11:23] <kane77> erisco, that would be a problem unless it has uninstall in it... (you can try make uninstall)
[11:23] <hwilde> killown, emacs is the best editor.
[11:23] <piotr_> it says about gnome user interface for configuring non-free hardware drivers but right now I have kubuntu means kde so its going to work with kubuntu also ?
[11:23] <ribatejo> anyway..I know it works with ubuntu..but one could buy external  wintv and that's it
[11:23] <HardDisk> yo Fathefner has a serious issue here, need someone high up on the nix chart to look at it
[11:24] <purpzey> What is the difference between $ and # at a term command line?
[11:24] <kane77> hwilde, can I view binary files in it?
[11:24] <teamwork> erisco, track down the files and delete them.  in the future, create a deb instead of installing.  then install the deb.  easier to uninstall.
[11:24] <nielsbosworth> how du I read the charge state of my laptop battery?
[11:24] <Fathefner> HardDisk: is it that bad
[11:24] <erisco> worked beautifully kane77, thanks
[11:24] <Griz> purpzey: # is root
[11:24] <HardDisk> well considering that dpkg doesnt want to do squat
[11:24] <ribatejo> anybpdy here has pvr even if is not linux based?
[11:24] <KDan> *** anyone know why the multiverse packages would all be not showing up in apt? (YES, I have done sudo apt-get update after uncommenting the multiverse line in sources.list)\
[11:24] <HardDisk> question, Fathefner did you try it via synaptic?
[11:25] <hwilde> kane77, you cannot view binary files in any text editor
[11:25] <kane77> erisco, but the writers of programs not allways include the uninstal routines
[11:25] <erisco> does anyone know of good video editing programs? I tried kino, but it doesn't allow me to insert my own music or text... I tried liVES but it just sucked... are there any others?
[11:25] <ph8> uberushaximus: as long as this?
[11:25] <Fathefner> HardDisk: what should i try
[11:25] <ph8> (for live boot)
[11:25] <ketiov> purpzey: Can't help me or did you miss my reply?
[11:25] <kane77> hwilde, why not?
[11:25] <|chiz|> !repeat
[11:25] <ubotu> Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[11:25] <hwilde> kane77, bc it is binary (0s and 1s) not text (ASCII)
[11:25] <uberushaximus> ph8: I've never had it take that long afterwards
[11:25] <ph8> naffo :(
[11:25] <Griz> I reinstalled grub and can no longer boot ubuntu 7.04, it responds with error 17: cannot mount partition, my menu.lst is here: http://rafb.net/p/cHYWaV78.html
[11:25] <kane77> hwilde, maybe view it in hex?
[11:25] <ph8> maybe i'll go for another reboot
[11:26] <HardDisk> Fathefner: goto synaptic and search for linux-image then select the updated kernels that you selected and also dont forget to add the restricted-modules for that kernel version
[11:26] <ph8> i'll have a vista cd to try in 20 mins
[11:26] <hwilde> kane77, emacs is the best editor all around...
[11:26] <uberushaximus> ahah
[11:26] <uberushaximus> I'm partial to nano
[11:26] <hwilde> nano is fine too
[11:26] <uberushaximus> but emacs had its day
[11:26] <rolnyzx> hwilde, only after vim's supremacy
[11:26] <uberushaximus> so did vi ;D
[11:26] <fxfitz> Is it possible for Windows machines to use the printer that I have set up on my ubuntu machine? If so, how would I go about setting that up?
[11:26] <hwilde> vim is also fine
[11:26] <purpzey> ketiov: I missed it sorry.
[11:26] <hwilde> none of those editors will let him view binary files tho
[11:27] <ketiov> purpzey: Uh, what are the proper boot options exactly >__>? Anything I changed, I saved, yes. And I had to download the .iso , I tried burning it on two different computers using just the normal burning thing and nero.
[11:27] <Jefis> I changed /dev/hdb5 from NTFS to Fat32, having little difficulties :)
[11:27] <kane77> hwilde, and what package should i install?? the emacs21?
[11:27] <cox377> kane77: is there a command to make it starT?
[11:27] <Jefis> edited /etc/fstab changed filesystem type, so how do i remount it, without reboot?
[11:27] <p1ls> so to tar a file you do tar -cvvf name.tar /folder, how do you do with two files
[11:27] <hwilde> kane77, you are not going to be able to view binary files in any editor... that is what binary means
[11:27] <KDan> *** anyone know why the multiverse packages would all be not showing up in apt? (YES, I have done sudo apt-get update after uncommenting the multiverse line in sources.list)\
[11:27] <HardDisk> fxfitz: http://occy.net/printing
[11:28] <piotr_> I did install apache2 with apt-get and now need to install php also whats the command for that? I tried apt-get install php5 but it doesnt work
[11:28] <purpzey> ketiov: Well, I'd suggest two things..1) Burn the CD according to the instructions on the website, the software is free. 2) Boot options should be that BIOS looks to CD first before any hard-drives...Otherwise the CD gets skipped when BIOS picks up XP (or whatever OS) on the harddrive.
[11:28] <kane77> hwilde, i know what binary means :)
[11:28] <p1ls> piotr_, try sudo apt-cache search php, find the right name
[11:28] <fxfitz> HardDisk, Thank you, sir.
[11:28] <piotr_> ohhh ok thanks
[11:28] <hwilde> kane77, well you could try using the builtin editors gedit, nano, and vi
[11:29] <Griz> I reinstalled grub and can no longer boot ubuntu 7.04, it responds with error 17: cannot mount partition, my menu.lst is here: http://rafb.net/p/cHYWaV78.html
[11:29] <HardDisk> fxfitz: also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NetworkPrintingFromWinXP?highlight=%28printer%29%7C%28share%29
[11:29] <tonsofpcs> there's a problem with the 0.8.6.release-0ubuntu4 build of VLC
[11:29] <deadowl_> okayy... so I have broadcom 4310 uart rev 01 using ndiswrapper 1.45 and my computer isn't detecting any wireless networks. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling ndiswrapper.
[11:29] <kane77> hwilde, and it's not that hard to program a binary viewer... just stripping out the non-printable chars
[11:29] <deadowl_> wont connect to them either
[11:29] <purpzey> deadowl_: I am helping a friend deal with a similar issue, there are a ton of guides on the forums...Did you try installing wifi radar?
[11:29] <tonsofpcs> deadowl_: is your wireless light on?
[11:30] <deadowl_> tonsofpcs: nope
[11:30] <tonsofpcs> is it enabled in your bios?
[11:30] <hwilde> deadowl_, is it a laptop?  there should be a fn key (mine is fn+f2) to enable wifi
[11:30] <ketiov> purpzey: K thanks, I'll try the instructions there. Thanks for the help, although I'll probably be back later for other stuff. Heh.
[11:30] <purpzey> ketiov: Not a problem, gl.
[11:30] <lxuser> Endlessguitar, did that work for you?
[11:31] <deadowl_> fn key for wifi
[11:31] <deadowl_> interesting
[11:31] <ghee> hi guys, i'm running feisty and am having problems getting it to logout / shutoff via the gui.  have seen the problem online but no solutions that worked for me.  any ideas?  64bit
[11:31] <Endlessguitar> which?
[11:31] <lxuser> the Restricted Driver Manager
[11:31] <Endlessguitar> well i didnt do anything there
[11:32] <deadowl_> can't find a fn key for wireless
[11:32] <Endlessguitar> I just  pressed ctrl + alt + f1
[11:32] <Endlessguitar> and a black window
[11:32] <Endlessguitar> came up and I had to restart
[11:32] <Endlessguitar> computer
[11:32] <deadowl_> and i wouldn't need wifi radar as far as i know
[11:32] <teamwork> Griz, ubuntu is on your first disk, fourth partition?
[11:32] <deadowl_> iwlist eth1 scanning doesn't work
[11:32] <DumberDrummer> Is there anyway to get ubuntu to connect to a WRT54g at 54 megabits? Right now its saying I'm connected at 18 :/
[11:32] <deadowl_> though eth1 is the wireless interface
[11:33] <purpzey> deadowl_: Is ndiswrapper finding "hardware present"
[11:33] <intransigent> I just installed the SVN of CheckGmail in /usr/bin and I can run it from a terminal by typing checkgmail but when I do ALT+F2 and put in checkgmail it doesnt work. Anyone have any idea why that is?
[11:33] <deadowl_> yep
[11:33] <Endlessguitar> can some1 help me please to reconfigure xconfig manuel
[11:33] <lxuser> Endlessguitar, I dont recommend editing xorg when you dont have to. let it do the work for you
[11:33] <ph8> uberushaximus: think it could be the 8800GTX i have in here? or do these things default to a 'basic' gfx mode if not supported do you know?
[11:33] <deadowl_> driver installed, device present
[11:33] <Endlessguitar> but
[11:34] <teamwork> Griz, you there?
[11:34] <Endlessguitar> lxuser
[11:34] <purpzey> deadowl_: Seriously, I am not trying to pawn you off, I seriously would bet that you can find the fix in the forums...There is so much stuff w/ broadcom wirelessproblems.
[11:34] <erisco> has anyone used kino before? How can I get an mp3 (or whatever type of audio file) into my video?
[11:34] <Endlessguitar> one in here did the work for me and then had I a higher resolution
[11:34] <deadowl_> purpzey, that's exactly why it's hard to find a fix in the forums
[11:34] <Endlessguitar> I dont want use this sucky low resolution
[11:34] <Endlessguitar> sucks
[11:34] <uberushaximus> ph8, xerver supports the nv module, so it should work out of box
[11:34] <lxuser> endlessguitar, oh, i see what you are wanting I think
[11:34] <lxuser> endlessguitar, let me pull it up
[11:34] <HardDisk> Endlessguitar: ubuntuguide.org go down to the part where it shows you how to edit the file and insert higher res.
[11:35] <Endlessguitar> hmm
[11:35] <Endlessguitar> I were in there
[11:35] <Endlessguitar> but didnt work.
[11:35] <Fathefner> HardDisk: what should i download or uninstall
[11:35] <HardDisk> strange that mine picked up my res, im at 1600x1050
[11:35] <teamwork> Griz, 5...4...3...2...
[11:36] <HardDisk> Fathefner: search for linux-image
[11:36] <tjl30> hey does anyone know how I can change the name of my mount piont ?
[11:36] <HardDisk> choose the 16 generic ones
[11:36] <deadowl_> purpzey, this also wasn't a problem until the last update
[11:36] <Fathefner> HardDisk: i did
[11:36] <HardDisk> then search for restricted-module
[11:36] <HardDisk> and add the 16 generic one too
[11:36] <HardDisk> apply
[11:36] <bruenig> tjl30, you change the mount point itself, not the name
[11:36] <deadowl_> (which included a kernel update)
[11:36] <hwilde> tjl30, you probably dont want to change the name of your mount point... but you would look into fstab
[11:36] <HardDisk> that's all you need Fathefner
[11:36] <jchord> exit
[11:36] <purpzey> deadowl_: Why don't you just run the old kernel?
[11:37] <Fathefner> HardDisk: there are many things
[11:37] <lxuser_> endlessguitar, actually I dont feel comfortable telling people what to edit in xorg.conf in this scenario, sorry.
[11:37] <deadowl_> purpzey, i've tried that
[11:37] <Fathefner> HardDisk: which ones or do i get them all
[11:37] <Endlessguitar> ok
[11:37] <Endlessguitar> thanx anyway..
[11:37] <HardDisk> Fathefner: not all
[11:37] <HardDisk> sec ill write them down
[11:37] <deadowl_> in fact, let me try it again
[11:37] <Endlessguitar> have 2 look after some1 help then.. but thx
[11:37] <bruenig> tjl30, change the /etc/fstab entry
[11:38] <Fathefner> HardDisk: but what names
[11:39] <HardDisk> Fathefner: linux-image-2.6.20-16-generic linux-headers-2.6.20-16 linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic
[11:39] <daisy> hello
[11:39] <Griz> teamwork: sorry i was afk
[11:39] <illriginal> Can anyone help me with my desktop settings? Changing the font color of the menulist, date/time, etc..
[11:39] <illriginal> Anyone know how to change the appearance of GNOME?
[11:39] <daisy> is there any way to restore the file system permission i seem to have messed mine up?
[11:40] <Griz> teamwork: im actually not sure where it is, i thought it was on the first partition but i dont know how to be sure
[11:40] <Jefis> Could someone check if it's possible to connecto to my machine remotely, ip: jefis.homeip.net
[11:40] <Jefis> SSH i mean
[11:40] <HardDisk> illovae: system/preferences/theme
[11:40] <HardDisk> illriginal: system/preferences/theme
[11:41] <HardDisk> and the ubuntuforums.org and ubuntuguide.org has many questions answered.
[11:41] <illriginal> HardDisk... that's just for themes though >< I need to change font colors of Date/time, menulist, and other taskbar objects
[11:41] <Fathefner> HardDisk: ok what now
[11:41] <HardDisk> Fathefner: did you select the three files I said? and applied
[11:41] <Fathefner> HardDisk: yep they were there
[11:42] <Fathefner> HardDisk: im install linux headers
[11:42] <mkarnicki> hi guys.. i'm new with ubuntu. I have a prob. with wpa and my wifi, though i did everything like what all the tutorials said. anyone help me?
[11:42] <HardDisk> all you need to do now is restart, JUST incase that when you boot and it doesnt work dont worry, you can press escape at the grub menu and select the older kernel 15 generic to get back in
[11:42] <Griz> ill pay attention this time, heres my problem: I reinstalled grub and can no longer boot ubuntu 7.04, it responds with error 17: cannot mount partition, my menu.lst is here: http://rafb.net/p/cHYWaV78.html
[11:43] <KDan> OK. So here was the deal: THE SOURCES.LIST IN DAPPER IS INCORRECT. Fixed the line to "deb http:.... dapper multiverse" instead of the dapper-backports nonsense, and now it WORKS.
[11:43] <Pantern> Where do I find the file that holds internet config? It's annoying to enter the details every time i boot :(
[11:43] <rolnyzx> KDan, finally lol
[11:43] <Griz> Pantern: what details? have you tried network-admin?
[11:43] <Griz> Pantern: maybe you are looking for /etc/network/interfaces
[11:43] <KDan> rolnyzx: total fuck-up... why oh why is the official distro sources.list broken???
[11:43] <mkarnicki> hey guys, could anyone help me please with my WPA.. ?
[11:44] <KDan> how is a newbie supposed to figure THAT one out?
[11:44] <blackjackel> does anyone in here use MLdonkey?
[11:44] <nikosapi> What's the recommended way to store metadata in a flac file? I what to use grip to rip my CDs but it only does id3[v2] , is that ok?
[11:44] <purpzey> !ohmy | KDan
[11:44] <ubotu> KDan: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[11:44] <rolnyzx> lol
[11:44] <Pantern> Griz: That's what I needed. Thanks =)
[11:44] <mkarnicki> well maybe you can tell me where I can find help :) ?
[11:44] <KDan> purpzey: totally appreciate that, and won't do it again
[11:44] <KDan> purpzey: but
[11:44] <KDan> purpzey: it's totally deserved in this case
[11:45] <deadowl> purpzey: old kernel doesn't work either
[11:45] <HardDisk> you are allowed to use words such as "frickin" "fracking"
[11:45] <paregonta> hello folks... new here... i-v aproblem with an ols sound card... aztech 2320... it is not detected by xubuntu feisty... does anyone know how to resolve it?

[11:45] <mkarnicki> could somebdy help me :) ?
[11:45] <rolnyzx> mkarnicki, tried ndiswrapper?
[11:46] <Wiseguy> hey guys, i just installed pidgin 2.0.1 and when i connect to my MSN account the people in my list dont show up
[11:46] <Wiseguy> but it says im connected
[11:46] <purpzey> deadowl: Beats me, I mean, sorry man.
[11:46] <mkarnicki> thank god :) yes. but it throws me some lines up
[11:46] <elektronaut> any thoughts on upgrading a dapper to apache2.2.3 from feisty?
[11:46] <mkarnicki> I did try ndiswrapper
[11:46] <elektronaut> *a dapper box
[11:46] <Wiseguy> nvm, it loaded up now... just took a really long time
[11:46] <HardDisk> Wiseguy: they're hiding from you.
[11:46] <mkarnicki> I have a d-link DWL-G650+ PCMCIA card
[11:46] <Griz> Wiseguy: /join #pidgin
[11:46] <mkarnicki> and a D-LINK router configured with WPA-PSK
[11:47] <mkarnicki> i'm at the stage of typing:
[11:47] <HardDisk> pidgin is nice, I like amsn tho
[11:47] <ruud> hello
[11:47] <mkarnicki> sudo wpa_supplicant -iwlan0 -c/etc/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dndiswrapper -w
[11:47] <HardDisk> since I don't multi-im myself.
[11:47] <rolnyzx> mkarnicki, try madwifi
[11:47] <Pantern> Is this syntax valid for the /etc/network/interfaces file: wireless-enc off
[11:47] <rolnyzx> mkarnicki, your card is supported
[11:47] <mkarnicki> ok.. thanks rolnyzx :)
[11:47] <melon> updated Q - i have my modem/router downstairs and both are working fine now.. upstairs.. i intend to have my computer - what do i need with it to receive the wireless signal (obviously i have no clue when it comes to this hardware stuff)
[11:47] <Griz> ive been trying to fix this for an hour: I reinstalled grub and can no longer boot ubuntu 7.04 (or anything for that matter), it responds with error 17: cannot mount partition, my menu.lst is here: http://rafb.net/p/cHYWaV78.html

[11:50] <HardDisk> oh he left.
[11:51] <hilz> i mean i have a Compaq....
[11:51] <rolnyzx> mkarnicki, try first without wpa
[11:51] <illriginal> http://linuxfud.files.wordpress.com/2007/03/screenshot-bare-2007-03-04.png  Hardisk
[11:51] <rolnyzx> mkarnicki, once you connect enable wpa
[11:51] <mkarnicki> without any of wep/wpa ? that's quite a security flow..
[11:51] <HardDisk> rbielun: nope.
[11:51] <mkarnicki> oh..
[11:51] <mkarnicki> ok :)
[11:51] <mkarnicki> thanks for the idea :)
[11:51] <mkarnicki> i'll try that. thank you very much rolnyzx for your hand
[11:52] <mkarnicki> brb
[11:52] <Griz> I reinstalled grub and can no longer boot ubuntu 7.04, it responds with error 17: cannot mount partition, my menu.lst is here: http://rafb.net/p/cHYWaV78.html
[11:52] <HardDisk> illriginal: nice :)
[11:52] <illriginal> HardDisk... that's what I want to do with my font lol
[11:52] <HardDisk> ah
[11:52] <illriginal> Harddisk, the font color of the time/date
[11:52] <HardDisk> well there are guides in the forum for the fonts thingies
[11:52] <illriginal> Harddisk, I have a dark background wall paper
[11:53] <rbielun> well that screenshot looks awesome HardDisk ^_^
[11:53] <HardDisk> I changed my fonts and stuff too
[11:53] <illriginal> Harddisk, yeah i've been lookin around for 2 hours but nothing yet
[11:53] <rbielun> is that your desktop?
[11:53] <lycus_setesh> What is the key sequence to show a prompt to run a program?
[11:53] <HardDisk> its in the ubuntuforums.org
[11:53] <HardDisk> just search for fonts
[11:53] <illriginal> yeah Harddisk, ill use that keyword
[11:53] <bmidy> also could someone help me; I did confre my network card, and also the network proxy, so I could ping an
[11:53] <bmidy> host from a terminal
[11:53] <mwe> can you restrict ssh access to only selected users?
[11:53] <deadowl> purpzy: okay, so yea, it's configured correctly in bios, it hasn't worked in either kernel since the kernel update.
[11:53] <jrib> oh no
[11:54] <bmidy> but the package manager receive some error : failled ???
[11:54] <lycus_setesh> Anyone? :-P
[11:54] <HardDisk> I implemented ubuntustudio theme on my desktop
[11:54] <HardDisk> with sounds/fonts e.t.c.
[11:54] <HardDisk> got the guide from the forum
[11:54] <virgil> Any chance somebody could help me? My computer froze while installing cedega, and now I can't open package manager because it says I need to reinstall cedega, trying to run the cedega package tells me it may be corrupt or I am not allowed to run it, and trying to remove it through aptitude tells me I need to reinstall it first.
[11:55] <deadowl> kde crashes too much.
[11:55] <HardDisk> well virgil I don't know about you, but I haven't been able to get cedega to run the games I want so i trashed it
[11:55] <HardDisk> and used cedega 6.0
[11:55] <Flannel> mwe: DenyUsers/DenyGroups AllowUsers/AllowGroups
[11:55] <deadowl> does anyone here know a lot about networking?
[11:56] <habeeb> Great night isn't it, gentlemen
[11:56] <virgil> Heh, well I'd at least like to get it to work, or at the VERY least be able to use package manager again
[11:56] <HardDisk> habeeby ya
[11:56] <Flannel> mwe: You can also do it through PAM as well
[11:56] <rbielun> wow. i think i may go over to ubuntu studio! this gnome stuff is kinda plain, and I'm not the biggest fan of KDE....
[11:56] <deadowl> habeeb, i just woke up
[11:56] <llol> hello peeps
[11:56] <cox377> does anyone know a command to add apps to start at boot?
[11:56] <llol> hey anyone know if its possible to reduce the password size?
[11:56] <HardDisk> cox377: its in sessions
[11:56] <llol> instead of 6 characters/
[11:56] <habeeb> CodeImp: GNOME or KDE? Also, what command? GUI or terminal command?
[11:56] <Chillyboarder> almost all of you prolly have ubuntu installed, can someone take a screenshot of there dekstop and upload to imageshack.us r the such? see what it'll look like with drivers and such.
[11:56] <cox377> HardDisk: i'm looking for a command line
[11:57] <Flannel> cox377: boot boot? or login?
[11:57] <virgil> What is the etiquette in here? If I don't get an answer to my question do I just repeat it every 5 minutes?
