[12:01] <slavik> habeeb: radeon is also open source ... but which is better? ati or radeon?
[12:01] <slavik> and I like beryl on aiglx :)
[12:01] <virgil> deadowl: once again, same message =[ it seems i need to reinstall it before it will allow me to uninstall it
[12:01] <intransigent> CheckGmail SVN is 1.11 and works with XGL
[12:01] <intransigent> and its just a file you make executable
[12:01] <slavik> I also need to set iy up for bigdesktop mode ...
[12:01] <sebas_> sudo apt-get clean ??? maybe
[12:01] <habeeb> slavik: indeed beryl on aiglx is superior. Unfortunately, tho, I don't know the differences between the ATI and the radeon driver.
[12:01] <Flannel> intransigent: you're going to have to ask the checkgmail people for bug triage
[12:01] <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
[12:01] <HardDisk> checkgmail sucks, the firefox plugin gmail manager is better, donchathinkso?
[12:02] <intransigent> No
[12:02] <intransigent> CheckGmail is nice
[12:02] <intransigent> Its not really a CheckGmail bug I dont think because it runs fine from the terminal
[12:02] <HardDisk> at least it does multiple accounts
[12:02] <intransigent> I just don't know why its not running by doing ALT+F2
[12:02] <virgil> sebas_: that did something, i heard hard drive noise, but there was no output. and trying the previous commands over again still produces the same error
[12:02] <cox377> Flannel: is there a way to add the scripts that  u can add to sessions to a file so i can do it via command line?
[12:03] <Flannel> cox377: sure, you edit some file in your homedir.  I dont know which one.  Probably .gnome* or .g*
[12:03] <rummik> are there any drivers for "01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Trident Microsystems CyberBlade XPAi1 (rev 82)"
[12:03] <virgil> does anyone know how i could maybe get around this error "ould not open 'cedega_small_6.0_all.deb' The package might be corrupted or you are not allowed to open the file. Check the permissions of the file."
[12:03] <virgil> Could*
[12:03] <deadowl> does anyone in here know a lot about wireless networking?
[12:03] <habeeb> virgil: You could check the permissions of the file ;) Do an: ls -l ced
[12:03] <Flannel> intransigent: open a terminal, run it, see what errors it gives
[12:04] <virgil> in the permissions i am set as the owner and read write able
[12:04] <virgil> habeeb: ls: ced: No such file or directory
[12:04] <habeeb> virgil: I see. What did you try to do with that deb? Did you try with: sudo dpkg -i cedega_small_6.0_all.deb using the terminal?
[12:04] <Electricity> Help. I was dual booting between Ubuntu and Vista, and I deleted the Ubuntu partitions, and now, grub gives me error 22, and I can not boot from a CD or into Windows. How can I get around this?
[12:04] <esqueleto> hello people
[12:05] <bung> so on a new install is it windows ubuntu, or ubuntu windows
[12:05] <radioman> ;}
[12:05] <virgil> habeeb: originally i just tried double clicking it, and it was working fine until i decided to click "terminal" under the install bar, that's when everything froze and all these problems arose
[12:05] <Flannel> bung: best to go windows ubuntu
[12:05] <bung> cheers Flannel
[12:05] <esqueleto> anyone can help me.. I make the update of the kernel .. and now I cannot find the eth1 device (wireless) what can I do ?
[12:05] <Electricity> Help. I was dual booting between Ubuntu and Vista, and I deleted the Ubuntu partitions, and now, grub gives me error 22, and I can not boot from a CD or into Windows. How can I get around this?
[12:05] <habeeb> virgil: I don't know what you mean. I never used the graphical deb installer. Let me take you another way ;)
[12:05] <habeeb> virgil: GNOME or KDE?
[12:06] <virgil> habeeb: ubuntu feisty 7.04, i think i'm running gnome with XGL right now
[12:06] <habeeb> virgil: okie. Do an Alt+F2, and write gnome-terminal in the thing that pops
[12:06] <Flannel> Electricity: error 22 is because you don't have a /boot anymore.  Don't repeat so quickly.  You need to rewrite the Vista bootloader to your MBR.  As for how to do that, I dont know.  You'll boot to the vista CD, I know that much.
[12:06] <virgil> habeeb: done
[12:06] <Wolydarg> Does anyone know of a method of typing in spanish that's more efficient than copy and pasting?
[12:07] <Electricity> Flannel: I don't have a Vista live CD, but I have an Ubuntu live CD it's letting me boot into
[12:07] <habeeb> virgil: ok now get to the directory with the .deb file. YOu know how to move within a terminal?
[12:07] <sebas_> Wolydrag: click on the spanish "a", "b" and so on
[12:07] <virgil> habeeb: yes, i do =]  and i am now there (Desktop)
[12:07] <Flannel> Electricity: You can't recover a windows bootloader with Ubuntu.  If you have no Windows media, you'll need to create a /boot partition, and install grub onto that, and then use grub to boot to Windows
[12:08] <habeeb> virgil: Awesome. Do a: sudo dpkg -i cedega_small_6.0_all.deb
[12:08] <intransigent> Flannel, none
[12:08] <esqueleto> anyone can help me.. I make the update of the kernel .. and now I cannot find the eth1 device (wireless) what can I do ?
[12:08] <Electricity> Flannel: I think I have Windows as a /boot partition...
[12:08] <nickrud> Wolydarg, you can change your keyboard to a spanish layout: system->preferences->keyboard, select the layout tab and then the add button
[12:08] <kknd> When you update the kernel you need to build again some modules
[12:08] <Wolydarg> ah, thanks
[12:08] <Electricity> I wonder...
[12:09] <elYase> is there any way of making a gambas aplication, such that when i press a button, it executes a bash comand, like a mix of gambas bash?
[12:09] <virgil> habeeb: the last thing i saw was "Setting up cedega-small (6.0) ..." i'm now back at the command line
[12:09] <Electricity> Wait, Flannel, how would I install GRUB to that?
[12:10] <habeeb> virgil: So the output was _only_: Setting up cedega small (6.0)...  ? :/
[12:10] <virgil> habeeb: you fixed it, i love you, all glory to you
[12:10] <thegerman> im trying to install feisty on my freinds server and i got the error /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[12:10] <virgil> habeeb: yes, but i think that means it worked. i can now access package managers/update managers and i am getting no further errors
[12:10] <Flannel> thegerman: did you check the CD for defects?
[12:10] <habeeb> virgil: I see. Sorry for not beeing able to help you with your GUI app. Try using the terminal from here and on, it's faster and safer ;)
[12:11] <Electricity> Crap, I gotta find my GParted ISO file...
[12:11] <habeeb> virgil: if you want more info about that dpkg command, try man dpkg
[12:11] <virgil> habeeb: thank you very much, i'll slowly get into it, it's hard learning all these commands
[12:11] <virgil> habeeb: gotcha, thanks again man
[12:11] <Electricity> Flannel: Is it possible to resize the partition I am from Ubuntu Live CD?
[12:11] <thegerman> Flannel, brand new press cd
[12:11] <Flannel> !grub | Electricity
[12:11] <ubotu> Electricity: 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
[12:11] <Flannel> Electricity: yeah.
[12:11] <habeeb> virgil: no problem. have fun
[12:12] <Flannel> thegerman: still, check it for defects.  You're going to install a GUI on a server?
[12:12] <Electricity> Flannel: How?
[12:12] <Flannel> Electricity: install gparted, run gparted
[12:12] <Electricity> Flannel: From the Ubuntu Live CD?
[12:12] <thegerman> Flannel, hes just going to use it as a desktop not a server
[12:13] <Flannel> Electricity: or any liveCD yes
[12:13] <Electricity> Okies
[12:13] <Flannel> thegerman: alright.  Well, check the CD for defects, if that doesnt work, download/burn an alternate CD, and install from that.
[12:13] <thegerman> Flannel, ok
[12:13] <elYase> is there any way of making a gambas aplication, such that when i press a button, it executes a bash comand, like a mix of gambas bash?
[12:13] <Electricity> Flannel: From sudo apt-get install gparted, it says its the newest version....Wait, I think...
[12:14] <Flannel> Electricity: then it's already there.  Run it and partition with it
[12:14] <Electricity> Yeah, I forgot to command line "sudo gparted" :O
[12:15] <rummik> hey, should the trident driver work with my "Trident Microsystems CyberBlade XPAi1 (rev 82)"?
[12:15] <Electricity> Flannel: How big do I need for GRUB?
[12:15] <Electricity> !grub > Electricity
[12:15] <mogul> hi
[12:16] <mogul> does somebody know php, ajax here?
[12:16] <Flannel> Electricity: Since it wont have any kernels in it, not very.  32MB will probably be overkill
[12:16] <Electricity> Flannel: How big do I need for GRUB?
[12:16] <Electricity> Ok
[12:16] <Flannel> mogul: ##php and ##javascript, respectively.
[12:17] <Electricity> Sorry for the repeat
[12:17] <DjViper> mogul: yes, and there are dedicated channels for that on this network
[12:17] <Electricity> Wrong keyboard :O
[12:17] <mogul> what are those channels?
[12:17] <DjViper> #php ##javascript #ajax
[12:17] <habeeb> mogul: the support channels for the languages you asked
[12:17] <DjViper> afaik..
[12:17] <mogul> :) thanx a lot
[12:18] <Electricity> DjViper: It's ##php not #php :|
[12:18] <DjViper> Electricity: both works, you get redirected ;)
[12:18] <Electricity> Flannel: From my Ubuntu Live CD it's failing to resize my NTFS partition, and I only got like 1 MB spare...
[12:18] <piotr_> #php
[12:18] <piotr_> lol
[12:19] <Stormx2> Electricity: I've been upgrading my ubuntu system since hoary, and my /boot is 118mb
[12:19] <mogul> unfortunately overflow on #php and #ajax
[12:19] <Electricity> Stormx2: Wow..How old is that one? I've been using it since Edgy =\
[12:20] <Stormx2> Electricity: 2 years I think
[12:20] <Electricity> mogul: You must be registered and identified to join those channels.
[12:20] <mogul> aaah
[12:20] <mogul> how?
[12:20] <Stormx2> Electricity: Back then we hoped for 300 people in this channel for when breezy was released :)
[12:20] <Electricity> ./msg NickServ register PASSWORD and then /msg NickServ IDENTIFY PASSWORD
[12:21] <Electricity> Stormx2: You think 1 MB would be enough for GRUB?

[12:22] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[12:22] <Electricity> Stormx2: Wanna help me isntall grub to it after I make it? :O
[12:22] <WentruLahuen> gracias
[12:22] <Stormx2> Electricity: Theres a wiki guide for that :)
[12:22] <Stormx2> Electricity: What exactly are you doing, may I ask?
[12:23] <Electricity> Stormx2: Do I want it unformatted or ext3 or ext2 or swap or ntfs or what?
[12:23] <Electricity> Stormx2: I gotta reinstall GRUB =| I deleted old Ubuntu partition but never removed it from the MBR on Vista
[12:23] <Stormx2> Electricity: Explain what you are doing first. Unless you're doing something specialist, you're doing the installation wrong
[12:23] <Stormx2> Electricity: Got a windows CD?
[12:24] <Electricity> Stormx2: I'm creating a partition to install GRUB and no. I'm doing what Flannel told me to do, but I need to know what Filesystem to use.
[12:24] <Stormx2> Electricity: Wait a moment. Are you only going to use windows, from this point forwards?
[12:24] <Stormx2> Until you want to install windows
[12:25] <Stormx2> Sorry
[12:25] <mogul> Electricity: ./msg NickServ register PASSWORD and then /msg NickServ IDENTIFY PASSWORD what does it mean in my case?
[12:25] <Stormx2> *Until you want to install ubuntu
[12:25] <Electricity> I have Windows installed, but I can't boot to it without grub
[12:25] <bruenig> mogul, create one
[12:25] <Stormx2> Electricity: Incorrect.
[12:25] <Stormx2> Electricity: Got a windows CD?
[12:25] <Electricity> And I just want Windows, but I need grub to boot into it.
[12:25] <Electricity> Stormx2: I already said NO
[12:26] <mogul> bruenig: create what?
[12:26] <Stormx2> Electricity: That is the slowest way to do it.
[12:26] <Stormx2> Bah!
[12:26] <Durus> Hi, what can i write to in wich dir i am at in a shell ?
[12:26] <radioman> ..how to know which libs are common on all linux?
[12:26] <bruenig> mogul, a PASSWORD, where it says PASSWORD, put whatever you want it to be
[12:26] <ninnghizidha>  Hi there. Got a question, thats a bit wierd: Can i replace the window-manager with a non-windowmanager-executable (say Amarok or Firefox)= So each time i start the xdm-Session of my choice, that (and just that) app launches, and if i quit that app, the session will end?
[12:26] <mogul> but what is the NickServ?
[12:26] <Stormx2> The easiest and best way to do it would to be restore the windows mbr from a windows cd
[12:26] <RyanAmos> I've go this issue where if i start turning down my volume it doesn't actually turn the volume down but makes it kind of sound echoed.  Using a Dell Laptop, anyone have any ideas why this is?
[12:26] <Stormx2> Electricity: But if that's not possible, use ext3 for grub.
[12:26] <Electricity> mogul: Services which store that information for you to use.
[12:26] <wols> ninnghizidha: you can
[12:26] <Electricity> Thanks Stormx2
[12:26] <wols> !tell ninnghizidha about xsession
[12:27] <radioman> example libzzip-0.so, it is standart? how to know put it nex to app or not?
[12:27] <ninnghizidha> hooray! I just have to edit the .session  i guess
[12:27] <Electricity> Now to get GRUB installed
[12:27] <bruenig> !offtopic | mogul just do it if you need more that is not ubuntu related
[12:27] <ubotu> mogul just do it if you need more that is not ubuntu related: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:27] <TaterSallad> is setting up NetZero on my friends ubuntu box going to be as big of a pain in the ___ as I think it's going to be?   been kinda skimming the ubuntu how to but dial up is a foreign thing for me
[12:27] <nickrud> Electricity, you're just trying to get your vista to boot, right?
[12:27] <TaterSallad> SuperGrub is a easy way to install grub...
[12:28] <TaterSallad> just put in the disc and wah'la
[12:28] <Electricity> nickrud: Yes
[12:28] <Electricity> TaterSallad: That would be nice...If I had that..
[12:28] <nickrud> Electricity, try http://auscoder.com/2007-05-18/restore-vista-mbr-bootloader.html
[12:28] <TaterSallad> just dl it
[12:28] <Stormx2> Electricity: I think grub supports ntfs. You can put the stage2 stuff in your windows partition
[12:28] <TaterSallad> it's easy to find
[12:28] <TaterSallad> one sec I'll drop the link
[12:28] <Electricity> Why take all that time?
[12:29] <BlueBird22> can i be online 24/7 with a winmodem?
[12:29] <anathematic> TaterSallad: i'm actually having problems installing grub at the moment, could i make a cd using the supergrub thing and sort out my installation that way?
[12:29] <amattas> is vmware-server or vmware-workstation avail in any repo?

[12:33] <TaterSallad> I see someone made a mention of supergrub on the wiki
[12:33] <BlueBird22> nickrud can they run 24/7?
[12:33] <TaterSallad> cool cool
[12:33] <Electricity> Installing GRUB, I don't get that wiki, is there a really simple way to do it?
[12:33] <basic> guys my intel hd audio sound isnt working,, at all
[12:33] <basic> the driver isnt even loading
[12:33] <TaterSallad> Electricity
[12:33] <TaterSallad> just burn supergrub and run it at boot
[12:33] <Electricity> I'm not using SuperGrub.
[12:34] <nickrud> BlueBird22, yes.
[12:34] <TaterSallad> that would be too easy, I get it..
[12:34] <nickrud> BlueBird22, I lived on one for years, and sometimes the debian unstable updates took over a day to download
[12:34] <Electricity> TaterSallad: My dads computer will not support it.
[12:34] <TaterSallad> wtf
[12:34] <TaterSallad> how will it not support it?
[12:34] <crimsun> basic: what's the output from `lspci -v|grep -i audio` in a Terminal?
[12:35] <Electricity> It's like, a million years old, no space, slow, no CDs to burn to, and nothing to burn it with.
[12:35] <darwin81> Is there a CPU-Z equivalent for Ubuntu? (http://www.cpuid.com/cpuz.php)
[12:35] <TaterSallad> oic
[12:35] <BlueBird22> nick58b you used a winmodem on linux !! ??
[12:35] <Electricity> Stormx2: ...
[12:35] <nickrud> BlueBird22, there's an option in /etc/ppp/options called persist, uncomment it
[12:35] <TaterSallad> in that case, (well nm.. you said you didn't get the wiki)
[12:36] <Stormx2> Electricity: Okay.
[12:36] <nickrud> BlueBird22, yes, I used an ltmodem
[12:36] <Stormx2> Electricity: I'll pick out the relevent parts
[12:36] <basic> crimsun,
[12:36] <BlueBird22> nickrud what will happen if i /etc/ppp/options called persist, uncomment it
[12:36] <nickrud> BlueBird22, if your line is dropped, it'll get redialed

[12:37] <crimsun> basic: now, `lsmod|grep ^snd_hda_intel`
[12:37] <RyanAmos> Any of you guys know some decently big 'computer nerd' websites that I could advertise a pretty neat new website on?

[12:37] <Stormx2> Electricity: *sigh*
[12:37] <TaterSallad> lol
[12:37] <basic> nothing
[12:37] <Stormx2> Electricity: Listen, find a windows cd, or download one. Seriously, it will save you time and effort
[12:37] <Electricity> TaterSallad: That would be nice if I had lost it from installing Windows
[12:37] <crimsun> basic: `sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel`
[12:38] <TaterSallad> how did you lose it? I missed that part
[12:38] <Electricity> Stormx2: I'm doing it this way. If you don't care for anyone but yourself and won't help, fine. I'll get help from someone else.
[12:38] <basic> FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel not found.
[12:38] <crimsun> basic: err, did you attempt to compile ALSA yourself or something?
[12:38] <basic> no
[12:38] <Electricity> TaterSallad: Deleted my Ubuntu partition and it took grub with it, but I never took it off the MBR
[12:38] <basic> im on a fresh install
[12:38] <Voodoonix> i'm looking for some help with installing ati drivers
[12:38] <Stormx2> Electricity: How is this in my best interest? I'm saving _you_ time.
[12:38] <crimsun> basic: ...then how did snd-hda-intel.ko disappear?
[12:38] <TaterSallad> precious data I'm guessing?
[12:39] <basic> i tried reinstalling the linux-sound-base and alsa stuff through apt but it didnt add the module
[12:39] <anathematic> hi i'm currently installing ubuntu and i keep getting the error "unable to install GRUB in hd0" should i be using this supergrub stuff to install grub then?
[12:39] <barbarella_me> darwin81:cat /proc/cpuinfo
[12:39] <basic> the module was never there crimsun
[12:39] <TaterSallad> so a reinstall is out of the question
[12:39] <crimsun> basic: uname -r
[12:39] <basic> 2.6.20-16-generic
[12:39] <Electricity> Stormx2: Not when I'd spend either days buying one, many hours downloading one, which probably wouldn't be written to a CD right anyway. Will you help me like this?

[12:40] <Ernz> Hello, how can I manually set a key bind for firefox back, forward, refresh and stop within Ubuntu?
[12:41] <crimsun> basic: I can't reproduce your issue on a fresh install with 2.6.20-16-generic
[12:41] <habeeb> Gododnight
[12:41] <basic> weird, it didnt grab the sound module
[12:41] <TaterSallad> anathematic, I'm not sure buddy..   it might work.. lol
[12:41] <nickrud> BlueBird22. I used the ltmodem support that used to be in ubuntu's kernel. I guess they dropped it. I'd go to http://www.linmodems.org/
[12:41] <basic> that fixed it after reinstalling the kernel and modprobing the module
[12:41] <basic> thanks
[12:41] <nuked_omen> hi
[12:41] <anathematic> TaterSallad:  haha i guess i might as well try it~ it keeps failing and i don't know why
[12:42] <TaterSallad> it saved me a headache after she installed Vista..  (ick)
[12:42] <Tiradin> fbrb.
[12:42] <crimsun> basic: I know it ships by default and on upgrade, so something must have interrupted your update.
[12:42] <Tiradin> brb*
[12:42] <nuked_omen> i play tremulous while playing music with xmms. i want the music to have a lower volume than the game.. but when i change the volume in xmms, it gets changed in tremulous too.. is there a fix?
[12:42] <nickrud> TaterSallad, pppconfig is the dialup tool of choice, it's on every install
[12:42] <erisco> I know there is a terminal program out there... I am looking for something that will take a directory of images and convert them into video.. like a bunch of jpg's into an avi.
[12:42] <luishenrique> Hello, news about Tux 500?
[12:42] <BlueBird22> nickrud i have lucent winmodem. i have having alot of problems making it usable on linux kubuntu. what should i do.
[12:42] <crimsun> nuked_omen: sure, but you need to use something like pulseaudio.
[12:43] <TaterSallad> ok, so it will already be residing on the hard drive (I threw Feisty on there box)
[12:43] <TaterSallad> their*
[12:43] <TaterSallad> I'm illiterate by the way
[12:43] <TaterSallad> and I'll need that modem tool as well, correct?
[12:43] <nuked_omen> crimsun: a new sound architecture?
[12:43] <TaterSallad> to properly identify the modem
[12:43] <Tiradin> Is anyone able to help me find the proper drivers for an ATI RADEON X800?
[12:43] <nuked_omen> i thought esd and alsa were too much
[12:44] <Electricity> How can I find out what hd0,* my /boot is at?
[12:44] <sainzeo> @Tiradin: fglrx
[12:44] <nickrud> BlueBird22, follow instructions on linmodems.org
[12:44] <Stormx2> Electricity: sudo fdisk -l
[12:44] <crimsun> nuked_omen: no, it allows tremendous flexibility.  It sits on top of ALSA.
[12:44] <Ernz> Is it possible to send keypresses from a terminal?
[12:44] <Stormx2> Electricity: One of them will be ext3
[12:44] <BlueBird22> nickrud i had no luck with linmodems.org
[12:44] <erisco> I am dead positive there is a terminal program out there to do this... I had one not a couple months ago.. I just forgot the name :(
[12:44] <nuked_omen> crimsun: i'll try it out, thanks
[12:45] <Tiradin> Sainzeo: I'm fairly new to Ubuntu, and i'm rusty with linux... could you please explain?
[12:45] <Electricity> Stormx2: My ext3 is /dev/sda2, what (hd0,*) number is thast?
[12:45] <nickrud> BlueBird22, paste the output from lspci -v  on paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[12:45] <Stormx2> Electricity: (sd0,1) I think
[12:45] <Drummond>  /server irc.cl
[12:45] <Electricity> Error 23: Error while parsion number
[12:45] <Flannel> Electricity: hd0,1
[12:46] <nickrud> BlueBird22, I'm stepping away from my desk for about 10, I'll ping you when I get back
[12:46] <sainzeo> @Tiradin: there is a guide here I believe that explains how to get it running, including getting XGL working: http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Ubuntu_Feisty_Installation_Guide
[12:46] <Stormx2> Flannel: Eh?
[12:46] <Electricity> Error 21: Selected disk does not exist.
[12:46] <Flannel> Electricity: Unless you have IDE drives as well, in which case you'll need to know which comes first in the BIOS
[12:46] <Tiradin> Thank you
[12:46] <sainzeo> @Tiradin: you're welcome - good luck
[12:46] <Electricity> Flannel: IDE drives?
[12:46] <Stormx2> Flannel: That's be /dev/hda1
[12:46] <Flannel> Electricity: IDE instead of SATA?  the connector?
[12:46] <Stormx2> That'd*
[12:46] <Flannel> Stormx2: no.  It'd be the first harddrive, regardless of method.
[12:46] <Ernz> @Anyone - Is it possible to send keypresses from the terminal or using an app?
[12:47] <Electricity> Flannel: I have no idea what you're talking about...
[12:47] <Flannel> Electricity: Do you only have one harddrive?
[12:47] <Electricity> Flannel: Indeed I do
[12:47] <Flannel> Electricity: then hd0,1 is sda2
[12:47] <Stormx2> Flannel: Would /dev/sda1 != /dev/hda1?
[12:47] <Electricity> Error 21: Selected disk does not exist. <--- Flannel, read please?
[12:47] <Flannel> Stormx2: Correct.  But GRUB isn't Linux
[12:47] <Stormx2> Hmm.
[12:47] <usr_rob> can someone please help me look at the screenshot, does anyone know what font is in that screenshot? >> V
[12:48] <usr_rob> http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Tango-Style?content=58112
[12:48] <Stormx2> Flannel: So sda doesn't cross over with hda in grub? They have different numbers?
[12:48] <Electricity> Error 21: Selected disk does not exist. When I root (hd0,1)
[12:49] <nuked_omen> usr_rob: i don't know but please tell when you find out
[12:49] <basic> hey whoever was helping me... i rebooted as instructed and now its not working again
[12:49] <Electricity> Flannel: Wait, do I want my boot one? Thats at /dev/sda1
[12:49] <usr_rob> nuked_omen: ;) yes
[12:49] <Flannel> Stormx2: The harddrives get numbered 0-n, with SATA or IDE being first depending on how the BIOS sees them. (say you have two and two) sometimes IDE will be hd0-hd1 with SATA 2-3 and sometimes the otherway around (well, always on the same computer)
[12:49] <Stormx2> Flannel: Ah right. Okay, learn something new every day :)
[12:50] <blackjackel> what is the command to tell me my computers internal network ip address?
[12:50] <Jefis> CTRL+ALT+DEL :)
[12:50] <Flannel> Electricity: sda1 is hd0,0
[12:50] <Electricity> Error 21: Selected disk does not exist. When I root (hd0,0)
[12:50] <basic> $ sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel
[12:50] <basic> FATAL: Module snd_hda_intel not found.
[12:51] <crimsun> basic: `uname -r`
[12:51] <Pelo> Electricity, make sure the first partiton on the first hdd is flagged to boot
[12:51] <basic> its the same as before
[12:51] <basic> i just did another
[12:51] <Electricity> Pelo, I only have one HDD...
[12:51] <nickrud> BlueBird22, back
[12:51] <Pelo> Electricity, still applies
[12:51] <basic> sudo apt-get --reinstall install linux-image-`uname -r` -- i just reran that
[12:51] <Flannel> Pelo: boot flags are a relic of MSDos/Win9X.
[12:51] <crimsun> basic: you still need to tell me the output.
[12:51] <K`zan> Anyone know of something a handicapped person can use to paste in a phone number and have the modem dial it?
[12:51] <basic> $ uname -r
[12:51] <basic> 2.6.20-16-generic
[12:52] <Pelo> Flannel, tell that to grub
[12:52] <Electricity> And wayway, /dev/sda1 * 1 7296 58603520 7 HPFS/NTFS
[12:52] <Flannel> Pelo: grub ignores boot flags.  So, I don't have to.
[12:52] <EADG_> blackjackel: ifconfig
[12:52] <basic> $ sudo modprobe snd_hda_intel
[12:52] <basic> basic@RUDY:~$
[12:52] <basic>  -- now the modprobe works
[12:53] <basic> but after i reboot, the module disappears
[12:53] <Flannel> basic: please stop pasting, and please formulate questions/responses/whatever on one line.
[12:53] <Electricity> Ok, god damn it, I need to install GRUB. Who will walk me through it step by step?
[12:53] <basic> sure okay
[12:53] <Stormx2> Electricity: Why not google it?
[12:53] <theconartist> Electricity, man grub will
[12:53] <theconartist> :o
[12:53] <Flannel> !grub > Electricity
[12:53] <Pelo> basic, don't modules you want to load at boot need to be added to  /etc/modules or something
[12:53] <Electricity> I don'
[12:53] <Tiradin> Thank you for your help sainzeo, it seems to have gone well.
[12:54] <tominglis> hey guys, does anyone have a creative audigy 2 xs in their laptop, and if so, do they know how to play through their laptop speakers on it?
[12:54] <crimsun> basic: modules don't "disappear" - either a script is erasing the module, or something else.
[12:54] <Electricity> I don't need that shit 4 times in my damn PM, OK?! I NEED HELP AT THE "root (hd0,*) PART
[12:54] <Stormx2> Electricity: The most reliable way to do it would be to find a guide, or ask in #grub.
[12:54] <basic> crimsun, yeah, but it was gone after a reboot
[12:54] <crimsun> basic: see above.
[12:54] <Pelo> Electricity, that shit is instructions to reisntall grub
[12:54] <Flannel> Electricity: if you read that page, it explains what to do... step by step
[12:54] <Stormx2> Electricity: All we in the channel will do is find a guide and relay it to you, okay?
[12:54] <glyn> msn server
[12:55] <Stormx2> Electricity: Save us the time and the trouble, and take some initiative. if you have any issues with specific points, please, tell us.
[12:55] <Pelo> Electricity, what's the devtree of your / partition ?
[12:55] <Electricity> PELO I TRIED TO USE THAT. I CANT GET IT. STORMX2: WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK I WAS DOING?
[12:55] <Electricity> Pelo, what?
[12:55] <Azul> Electricity: RTFM
[12:55] <Stormx2> I'm with Azul
[12:55] <basic> crimsun, i can open the volume control right now, but it still has a red circle with a line through it in the tray
[12:55] <nickrud> oooh, the final cuss ord
[12:55] <Electricity> My / partition?
[12:55] <crimsun> Electricity: your capslock appears to be stuck.
[12:56] <Pelo> Electricity, what is the /dev/sda*  of your boot partiton
[12:56] <Electricity> 1
[12:56] <blackjackel> How do i force an internal ip on my computer? I want to give myself 192.168.0.69 instead of my current 192.168.0.67
[12:56] <Electricity> It's /dev/sda1
[12:56] <Pelo> Electricity, sda1 =  (hd0,0)
[12:56] <Electricity> Pelo, so be it
[12:56] <Azul> why is he mad anyway
[12:56] <crimsun> basic: well, is snd_hda_intel loaded?  I gave you the lsmod command for it earlier.
[12:56] <BlueBird22> nickrud i didnt. pretty hard. bad luck.   any easier way? or a ready made soft that can do it.
[12:56] <BlueBird22> nickrud ok. ill do that. not now. i hope you are here all the time
[12:56] <Electricity> Explain this: Error 21: Selected disk does not exist
[12:57] <Pelo> Electricity, have you ever been able to boot ubuntu on that system ?
[12:57] <nickrud> BlueBird22, I'm pingable when I'm at work, which is for about the next 45 minutes
[12:57] <Stormx2> Electricity: What environment are you working in? feisty live cd?
[12:57] <Electricity> Yes Pelo
[12:57] <sherii> hi
[12:57] <Electricity> It was fine until I deleted the partition with grub and Ubuntu on iyt
[12:57] <Electricity> It*
[12:57] <Pelo> Electricity, can I see a screenshot of gparted for that hdd ?
[12:57] <Electricity> Stormx2: Edgy live cd
[12:57] <Electricity> Pelo, probably
[12:57] <Electricity> Wait
[12:58] <Electricity> You want gparted or the grub screen?
[12:58] <Stormx2> Electricity: What connection you on? What downstream rate?
[12:58] <illriginal> Hey guys, if I want to install a login theme, splash, as well as background wall paper, how do I do it? And do I choose GTK? Or GDM for Feisty?
[12:58] <gamerX> hey

[12:58] <Electricity> Yes sirt.
[12:58] <basic> crimsun, yes, it's loaded, the module installed after the kernel reinstall.. then i modprobed the snd_hda_intel and i can change volume levels
[12:58] <Electricity> Sir*
[12:58] <Stormx2> illriginal: GDM and GTK are different things.
[12:58] <mikeo1> how come superkaramba docklets keep disappearing from my desktop?
[12:58] <BlueBird22> nickrud ok
[12:58] <gamerX> is this like the ubuntu house
[12:58] <gamerX> lol
[12:58] <Stormx2> illriginal: Chances are you're already using GDM. Have a look on gnome-look.org for themes
[12:58] <mikeo1> is superkaramba not compatable with beryl?
[12:59] <guilherme> hello all, sometimes when I'm browsing, my network freezes... In this moment I give the command: ping xxx.xxx.xxx, and I get the following message: "No buffer space available".... Any idea?

[01:01] <Electricity> How would I get that Pelo?
[01:02] <nickrud> blackjackel, how'd you get the first ip? dhcp?

[01:02] <nickrud> blackjackel, you can set a static ip in /etc/network/interfaces; I'll put mine on pastebin for a template
[01:02] <Pelo> Electricity, what is on it now ?
[01:02] <ipx> Wips: I think "Vim" will do all that for you :)
[01:02] <cerealkiller219> is there any way to "reinstall" ubuntu 7.04 ?
[01:03] <frankgrimes> simple question: how do you remove network entries from the list of created networks in network manager
[01:03] <Electricity> Pelo, nothing

[01:04] <Electricity> ?
[01:04] <jrib> cerealkiller219: put the install cd in and reboot, but why?
[01:04] <Pelo> Electricity, vista doesn't like other boot manager,   and you donT' actualy seem to have any ubuntu installed on that hdd so I guess you getter get rid of grub altogether
[01:04] <Stormx2> illriginal: You sure you clicked the archive? Did you fully download it?
[01:05] <frankgrimes> anyone have an answer to my question?
[01:05] <TaterSallad> ok, so configuring dial up might not be that big of a deal.. just so long as you have the nec. drivers for your modem, my question is this:  When I installed ubuntu on their machine I had my high speed connection do all the updates for them..  is it possible I may not need to use scanmodem tool?
[01:05] <jrib> !please > frankgrimes (see the private message from ubotu)

[01:06] <phishinphree> vecina:  if you are able to mount and see the files on the disc then i'd say its a bad disc.  burned cd's don't last more than a couple years for me
[01:06] <jrib> cerealkiller219: at what point does it stall?
[01:06] <cerealkiller219> jrib: it failed some file during the upgrade, not sure which oen
[01:06] <BlueBird22> nickrud well i think have to do that later on.. some time. ill catch ya
[01:06] <frankgrimes> so anyone know how to clear network-manager's network's cahce/list?
[01:06] <cerealkiller219> jrib: it brings up the boot screen with nautilus on it, and stops there
[01:06] <BlueBird22> nickrud whats your email id on msn?
[01:06] <ipx> Wips: use ls to see the files and folders in your current folder
[01:06] <nickrud> BlueBird22, I'm around often; and I don't msn ;)
[01:06] <cerealkiller219> jrib: i can log in fine but cant get any further
[01:06] <vecina> phishinphree: Me neither. Thats what worries me. Hard drives are not a stable place to store data
[01:06] <ipx> Wips: use cd *foldername* to go to a folder
[01:06] <ipx> Wips: use cd .. to go backwards
[01:06] <jrib> cerealkiller219: have you tried creating a new user?
[01:06] <cerealkiller219> jrib: no
[01:07] <Pelo> Electricity, if you dont, have any important data that you need to backup , I suggest you just  start over
[01:07] <iShock> ipx: it's cd ~/home/you/whereever
[01:07] <Wips> ipx: And to run a file?
[01:07] <sw1ft> I installed Ubuntu 7.04 yesterday and the network card doesn't seem to be working.  I removed it and tried a different make/model card and get the same thing.  It says its connected but I don't get an internet connection.
[01:07] <jrib> cerealkiller219: I would try that before you resort to a reinstall.  Also try just logging into a tty and see if that works
[01:07] <illriginal> Stormx2 I see.. I had to extract it first
[01:07] <illriginal> then install
[01:07] <illriginal> brb
[01:07] <cerealkiller219> jrib: if I must reinstall, will I lose anything?
[01:07] <vecina> oh well...
[01:07] <phishinphree> vecina: flash/tape/magnetic cd's are good.  so are raids
[01:07] <Stormx2> illriginal: oh? You shouldn't have to.
[01:07] <ipx> Wips: it depends on the file. If it is a .run-file, you use sh.
[01:07] <illriginal> I dunno <,<
[01:07] <illriginal> Stormx2 let me ask you
[01:07] <jrib> cerealkiller219: well not if you have backups or /home on a seperate partition
[01:08] <asdf_> does any one know how to write to a mac os x partition?
[01:08] <illriginal> can I delete the tar.gz file now?
[01:08] <cerealkiller219> :(
[01:08] <illriginal> Or do I need to keep it saved?
[01:08] <Stormx2> illriginal: Have you installed the theme?
[01:08] <yay> can anyone help me, I have a macbook pro and I am trying to install ubuntu on it, but everytime I put in the cd and boot from it, X fails to start up how can I fix this or how can I do an install from the command line?
[01:08] <vecina> phishinphree: i suppose ill look around, thanks...
[01:08] <cerealkiller219> jrib: ok, thank you
[01:08] <illriginal> Yeah Stormx2
[01:08] <Stormx2> illriginal: You can delete it, then
[01:08] <illriginal> nice :D
[01:08] <jrib> cerealkiller219: if you decide you need to reinstall, use a live cd to backup your files first
[01:08] <TAKTLx> good evening. i have a Plustek Opticpro 4800P Scanner... is it possible to insert it in the printer serial port to work and how do i set the xsane options to select that device instead of taking my ?? Haupauge Conexant DVB-T ??
[01:08] <Slart> I have a certain pdf-file I can't print.. checking logs I see that ghostscript (gs segfaults).. anyone else having this problem?
[01:08] <cerealkiller219> jrib: alright thanks
[01:08] <Watcher_> hey folks, how can i uninstall ubuntu? is it just delete all files and folders and reinstall everything again over the hd?
[01:08] <Pelo> yay,  there is an alternate install cd which has a text based installer  that usualy does the trick
[01:08] <Slart> I'm on ubuntu feisty, 64bit
[01:08] <BlueBird22> nickrud whats your email id on msn?
[01:09] <jrib> Watcher_: format the partition it's on to uninstall ubuntu

[01:09] <Tiradin> I'm trying to make "/media/Collective" accessible upon startup, can anyone help me out with that?
[01:09] <TAKTLx> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:09] <Slart> derrik: you on nvidia?
[01:09] <yay> Pelo, is there any other way besides downloading the other one
[01:10] <illriginal> Stormx2 Just a quick question, where are the backgrounds saved? The wallpapers that come with Ubuntu?
[01:10] <jrib> Tiradin: what is /media/Collective?
[01:10] <derrik> Slart: yeah nvidia
[01:10] <Pelo> derrik,  several ppl ,  boot up the previous kernel and it should be ok,
[01:10] <Tiradin> I have one hard drive split into partitions
[01:10] <Stormx2> illriginal: Not sure :(
[01:10] <Slart> derrik: just reconfigure x with the nvidia driver.. it's the kernel update
[01:10] <jrib> CarlFK: pastebin that output once you run that command
[01:10] <illriginal> ok
[01:10] <Watcher_> jrib, but if i reinstall the ubuntu, the installer will have to do the partition process again, or it will push ubuntu towards the EXT3 partitioned disk automatically?
[01:10] <Tiradin> Collective seems to be one of those partitions... i did name it that, but i was expecting /media/hda2
[01:10] <nickrud> BlueBird22, I don't msn, sorry
[01:10] <CarlFK> jrib: it is the installers's shell, where apt-cache dosn't exist
[01:10] <Pelo> yay, there are several ways to intall but in your case you'll probably need to download
[01:10] <jrib> Watcher_: not sure, it should explain what it wants to do though
[01:10] <iShock> Where is grubs menu.lst loaded??
[01:10] <Pelo> !install > yay  check your pms for a msg from ubotu

[01:15] <jron_> does anyone know what I need to enable in sshd_config to allow me to connect from another IP address? I simply want it to ask if I want to allow the new host key.
[01:15] <TAKTLx> !paste > sw1ft
[01:16] <jrib> jron_: you should be able to do that by default after installing openssh-server assuming you have no firewall setup
[01:16] <meligio> hi
[01:16] <Ernz> Hello - Does anyone know of a command line version of onboard? I need to send key presses from the command line. Any ideas welcome and greatly appreciated.
[01:16] <jron_> jrib: i'm thinking perhaps it was simply the shh client i was using that was following the stricthostkeychecking rule.
[01:17] <TAKTLx> anybody an answer on my guestion way far above ^^^^^
[01:18] <TAKTLx> still there sw1ft
[01:18] <jrib> jron_: when I try to ssh to your ip, I get prompted to add the RSA key and then asked for a password
[01:18] <TAKTLx> ?
[01:18] <ipx> jrib: are you using putty or another linux machine?
[01:18] <Tiradin> jrib: I'm not sure if you answered me?
[01:19] <jrib> Tiradin: you have to put my name in your response or I'll miss it.  Collective is NTFS?
[01:19] <jrib> ipx: linux
[01:19] <tominglis> hey guys, does anyone have a creative audigy 2 xs in their laptop, and if so, do they know how to play through their laptop speakers on it?
[01:19] <tominglis> oops

[01:19] <tominglis> i mean zs
[01:20] <ipx> jrib: then when prompted for a password, write the password for that account
[01:20] <jrib> ipx: I was just testing jron_'s setup
[01:20] <timothy> how can i get my swap to auto enable at boot?
[01:20] <ipx> jrib: what?
[01:20] <stiv2k> yo how do i save my session in firefox
[01:20] <jrib> timothy: put it in fstab
[01:20] <stiv2k> but close it
[01:20] <Tiradin> jrib: Correct, Collective is NTFS. the partition shows up fine and I can access it fine... the only thing I would like changed is that I don't want to have to type in a password every time I log on just to access it.
[01:20] <timothy> ah, yes
[01:20] <jrib> ipx: jron_ asked why he could not ssh to his computer
[01:21] <ipx> jron_:
[01:21] <jrib> Tiradin: k, pastebin your /etc/fstab and the output of this command:  mount
[01:21] <ipx> jrib: sorry

[01:26] <TAKTLx> i know how it is
[01:26] <jrib> Tiradin: ok, that doesn't include "mount" right?
[01:26] <BigMac> http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_chipset.php?chipset=Prism
[01:26] <ipx> Electricity: you got folders mounted in /media/, one of them is your installed ubuntu-drive.
[01:26] <Flannel> nym: You get to a normal login though?  that doesn't make any sense.  Are you sure?
[01:27] <BigMac> Those are a list
[01:27] <Tiradin> jrib: No, it does not.
[01:27] <gamerX> ahh got it finally
[01:27] <ipx> Electricity: you need to go in to that one, then to boot/grub
[01:27] <BigMac> but they all say needs driver

[01:27] <Elfboy> wow

[01:27] <ipx> wtf, you really are annoying
[01:27] <nickrud> rflol,
[01:28] <Flannel> gamerX: Ubuntu has nothing listening by default, so you'll have to install ssh (openssh-server is the package)
[01:28] <crimsun> maybe I need to figlet him so he'll get the darned point.
[01:28] <gamerX> yeah i got it and it works great

[01:30] <d0lph1nK1ng> type a password for sudo*
[01:30] <Flannel> d0lph1nK1ng: You don't.  Nor do you want to.
[01:30] <Stormx2> Electricity: Well, look at it this way. If you've got an ext3 partition dedicated to grub, surely it wouldn't be that hard to find it?
[01:30] <sainzeo> @Elfboy: what is wrong with your wireless?
[01:30] <Flannel> d0lph1nK1ng: Sudo will remember your password for 10 minutes by default.  You wont have to retype it each time
[01:30] <CarlFK> BigMac: once every 30 min, or post on the forum
[01:30] <Electricity> Stormx2: Will you walk me through installing GRUB?
[01:30] <bknitram> Elfboy, Maybe, explain more.
[01:30] <jrib> d0lph1nK1ng: man sudoers   it's usually a dumb idea, but the information is there
[01:30] <Elfboy> i cant get it to work
[01:30] <Stormx2> Electricity: No. Will you stop asking people to?
[01:30] <Electricity> Stormx2: Shut up then
[01:30] <sainzeo> @Elfboy: are you using 7.04?
[01:30] <ipx> ehm
[01:30] <bknitram> what card, etc?
[01:31] <d0lph1nK1ng> Flannel, cuz i need to run something at startup automatically and it requires sudo

[01:33] <sainzeo> @Elfboy: i believe the broadcoms are tougher to get working correctly
[01:33] <Pricey> argh
[01:33] <bknitram> Open a terminal

[01:33] <Stormx2> Pricey: nah, not language wise. He wouldn't accept that his problem called for self-help.
[01:33] <ubuntu_> hola
[01:33] <bknitram> Elfboy, Open a terminal
[01:33] <Elfboy> ok
[01:33] <crimsun> ffm: ok, and which card do you want to use as the default?
[01:34] <Elfboy> ok done
[01:34] <ffm> crimsun, Dont care. Whichever will work.
[01:34] <crimsun> ffm: both will, so decide.
[01:34] <bknitram> Elfboy, type lspci and paste what that outputs into a pastebin
[01:34] <ffm> crimsun, SB Live!

[01:34] <bknitram> yes
[01:34] <TAKTLx> sw1ft   looks good,  $ sudo ifup -eth0  or what ever one your network card is
[01:34] <ffm> crimsun, ?
[01:35] <sainzeo> how do you get to pastebin?
[01:35] <ffm> crimsun, I am a noob.
[01:35] <ffm> !pastebin | sainzeo
[01:35] <ubotu> sainzeo: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[01:35] <crimsun> ffm: in a Terminal, copy and paste these commands _exactly_:  echo blacklist snd-intel8x0|sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist
[01:35] <ghee> does anyone know why feisty would hang when shutting down or logging out via the gui?

[01:36] <smallfoot-> someone said you cant use Rosegarden in Linux
[01:37] <smallfoot-> in Ubuntu
[01:37] <smallfoot-> cuz low-latency kernel
[01:37] <Lilacor> smallfoot-: what's rosegarden?
[01:37] <aaron__> Can anyone help me? When I try to open Windows Wireless Drivers, it just opens and then closes
[01:37] <crimsun> smallfoot-: you certainly can use it with -lowlatency.
[01:37] <Flannel> smallfoot-: can't use rosegarden in linux?  It's written for linux.
[01:37] <gamerX> how do you format a hard drive using ubuntu...i have a spare hard drive there but it needs to be partitioned
[01:37] <TAKTLx> sw1ft can u see ur card in $ lspci

[01:38] <smallfoot-> why isnt linux low-latency by default?
[01:38] <ghee> gamerx, have you tried gparted?
[01:38] <sainzeo> @Elfboy: make sure you type sudo before the commands
[01:38] <Colossus> Hey; I'm having trouble installing Ubuntu on my laptop. When I install, it hangs at 15% when it's "Detecting file systems" ... I've had issues with that sort of thing before because it always tries to find a floppy drive, which my laptop doesn't have.
[01:38] <soymrmike> aha, answered my own question
[01:38] <gamerX> no i havent....
[01:38] <crimsun> smallfoot-: because it's not power-efficient.
[01:38] <soymrmike> how to list ipc mechanisms: ipcs
[01:38] <Flannel> Elfboy: did you run it with sudo?  also, you need to close other package managers (update-manager, add/remove, synaptic, etc)
[01:38] <Lilacor> soymrmike: neat!
[01:38] <ghee> colossus, i had exactly the same problem.  i just broke down and used the alternate install (text).  worked fine.
[01:38] <Colossus> ghee: really? Okay.
[01:39] <soymrmike> lilacor: word! i'm using CPAN's IPC::SysV
[01:39] <Colossus> I'll try that, then. Thanks
[01:39] <gamerX> im going to try gparted...installing now
[01:39] <bknitram> Elfboy, "sudo apt-get install bcm43xx-fwcutter"
[01:39] <ghee> colossus, yeah, they even have it for 64 bit, which surprised me.
[01:39] <bknitram> Elfboy, The password is your user account's password.
[01:39] <Colossus> ghee: is it a separate disk? Where do you get it?
[01:39] <sw1ft> TAKTLx:  yes, it shows it as the 3com card.  It's at the bottom of that pastebin.
[01:39] <spiderman2> hi there, i downloaded unbuntu 7.04 and burned it in CD, when i boot  and choose install, vmlinuz is running and after than blank screen come and installtion not progressing
[01:39] <Colossus> ghee: I don't see it as an option. :\
[01:39] <Lilacor> soymrmike: I don't know how I'll ever be using that command but still I like learning new things.
[01:39] <Flannel> Colossus: yeah.  releases.ubuntu.com get the alternate ISO
[01:39] <gamerX> ok question about partitioning hard drives
[01:40] <Colossus> Flannel: thank you.
[01:40] <sw1ft> TAKTLx:  sudo ifup -eth0   didn't seem to do anything
[01:40] <gamerX> just want a blank hard drive for mp3s and storage
[01:40] <gamerX> what type of partition should i use
[01:40] <ghee> colossus, yes on the download page, you can select alternate install.
[01:40] <gamerX> labeltype
[01:40] <spiderman2> hi there, i downloaded unbuntu 7.04 and burned it in CD, when i boot  and choose install, vmlinuz is running and after than blank screen come and installtion not progressing, can any one tell me what to do
[01:40] <sainzeo> @gamerX: are you using it with a linux system?
[01:40] <spiderman2> ?
[01:40] <soymrmike> lilacor: yeah intersection is rare but I'm new to irc and figure I should start out talking through my problem-solving for fun...instead of just nagging
[01:40] <Colossus> gamerX: I use ext3 for mine.
[01:40] <soymrmike> intersection of issues*
[01:40] <Flannel> spiderman2: check the CD for defects.
[01:40] <Stormx2> spiderman2: Did you check the cd for defects?
[01:41] <Stormx2> Damn you Flannel >.<
[01:41] <Lilacor> test
[01:41] <spiderman2> i did, but for that also blank screen comes
[01:41] <Lilacor> soymrmike: neat
[01:41] <Flannel> spiderman2: Check the MD5 of your ISO, and burn again at 4x

[01:42] <gamerX> ty gparted works great!
[01:42] <paintcan> =
[01:42] <paintcan> =(
[01:42] <ghee> colossus, so i would say go for alternate iso
[01:42] <Flannel> paintcan: read the link ubotu queried you.
[01:42] <ghee> gamerx, great, yeah it's my favorite partitioner...
[01:42] <Colossus> ghee: Okay. I'm downloading it now. Thanks.

[01:51] <ghee> aaron__, i don't know the command used to run that program.  maybe you should right click on the ubuntu menu icon, edit the menu, open that application and see what command it runs
[01:51] <tonsofpcs> dfsg?

[01:54] <eck> hyphenex: it is an option in the live cd, once you are in the live environment
[01:54] <cweagans> anathematic: have you tried formatting your hdd? try using a formatting utility to clear off the hard drive and then try installing again
[01:54] <tonsofpcs> ok, why is faac in multiverse and not universe?

[01:55] <Shinji1225> Good evening.  New Ubuntu user, have it on my desktop (working great), along with my PS3.  Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but wanted to know if there was any news at all about a new kernel or deb package that would add in a wifi driver for PS3 users (amongst other features)?
[01:55] <cweagans> anathematic: hold one just a minute...i'll pull it up and walk you through it
[01:55] <ghee> aaron__, it's easy to make a typo if not...

[01:55] <Flannel> !repeat | ss_
[01:55] <ubotu> ss_: 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

[01:56] <TAKTLx> !nvidia
[01:56] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[01:56] <aaron__> ghee: copy/pasted it, but it still just opened, then closed
[01:56] <eck> tonsofpcs: i think faac is encumbered by patents or other legal issues, that is the most likely reason
[01:56] <eck> hyphenex: it is an icon on the desktop
[01:56] <Semper> i still cant seem to get my ati x200 to work desktop effects
[01:56] <Semper> lame
[01:56] <ghee> aaron__, no extra output in the terminal?
[01:56] <maynards-girl> how can I tell if my video card is owrking properly (meaning using the right drivers)?
[01:56] <ss_> sorry folks i was dc so i repeated my q
[01:56] <eck> tonsofpcs: if you wanted to know the exact reason you'd probably be best off searching the debian mailing lists
[01:57] <tonsofpcs> ah ok
[01:57] <tonsofpcs> thanks
[01:57] <aaron__> ghee: no, i do get some extra output
[01:57] <Vigo> TAKTLax: I got a Xpress200 ATI to work , I think it was grep/? but is on the wiki , full instructions

[01:57] <Semper> ?
[01:57] <tonsofpcs> yea, thats probably it
[01:58] <ghee> aaron__, if it's short you could post it here, if not you could use pastebin.ca
[01:58] <kestri> what file is in charge of mounting media on boot up?
[01:58] <cweagans> anathematic: I can't seem to find the utility right now. Are you on the live cd?

[01:58] <anathematic> cweagans: yes i am
[01:59] <Semper> vigo have the site?
[01:59] <ghee> aaron__, if you go to http://pastebin.ca, you can post lengthier output there, it will give you a url which you can post here and we can take a look at it
[01:59] <cweagans> anathematic: in the installer wizard, there should be a screen that says something about partitions
[01:59] <Vigo> Stormx: Yeah, that as it glfx, <somethin>
[01:59] <TAKTLx> Vigo thanks
[01:59] <ghee> aaron__, sorry, distracted by a fevered chess game...
[01:59] <anathematic> cweagans: i've been using that to install the operating system and whilst i've been clicking the format box each time i'm still having problems
[02:00] <anathematic> is there a console command i can jsut use in it's place to format the drives for the moment?
[02:00] <sainzeo> @Semper: how did it go?
[02:00] <cweagans> there is, but I don't think it's in fiesty
[02:00] <aaron__> ghee: no problem, http://pastebin.ca/524076
[02:00] <Semper> @sainzeo: didnt get it to work
[02:00] <cweagans> the command is format, but it doesn't work in my terminal
[02:01] <Semper> @sainzeo: i had to switch the conf file
[02:01] <sainzeo> @Semper: had you been trying other things before doing that tutorial? cause it didn't work for me either when i was putzing, but if i did the tutorial right after a clean install it worked fine
[02:01] <rollerskatejamms> what's up guys?
[02:01] <sainzeo> @Semper: hmm
[02:01] <Semper> @semper: the thing is i skipped some

[02:02] <Flannel> cweagans: sudo fdisk -l
[02:02] <ghee> aaron__, i'm a newb myself, i don't think i can help with this.  maybe you can appeal to the gurus here to look at this feedback.
[02:02] <yousefm87> Hi everyone, I have a Intel 82801G (ICH7 Family) Sound card and I'm not gettin sound on my ubuntu partition. Anyone know how to fix this?
[02:02] <wy> How can I use a iso file as a disk? I mean use it as something like /dev/hdb, not just mount it.
[02:02] <aaron__> ghee: alrighty, who's a guru?
[02:02] <Frogzoo> cweagans: mount
[02:02] <Flannel> !iso | wy
[02:02] <ubotu> wy: 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.
[02:03] <Stormx2> maynards-girl: does it say direct rendering:no?
[02:03] <Vigo> Sempre: and this is Binary Drivers,,,https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto/ATI
[02:03] <ghee> aaron__, i.e., i don't know that error.  yeah, good question, i'm also looking for an answer to my question!
[02:03] <maynards-girl> stormx2:  i don't see that
[02:03] <Semper> vigo that doesnt tell me how to make desktop effects work
[02:03] <wy> Flannel: That's not what I want. I want let the programs which read CDrom drives read my file.
[02:03] <Semper> only things i should look into getting
[02:03] <Stormx2> maynards-girl: Dunno then, sorry
[02:03] <Semper> which i have most of them
[02:04] <cweagans> Flannel: the output from that shows a filesystem "Linux"...is that EXT3?
[02:04] <Vigo> Semper: as I recall iut was an fglrx command, may have changed, but it worked
[02:04] <ubuntu-rocks> does ubuntu feisty desktop edition support the ati tv wonder elite pci?  or what software can use for this tv tuner to work?
[02:04] <aaron__> Can anyone experienced in the ways of Ubuntu help me out?
[02:04] <Flannel> wy: Eh?  That mounts an iso file.  Which behaves like any other file on your harddrive

[02:05] <wy> Flannel: But this program knows about the drive. mount is not equivalent to Daemon tools in this respect.
[02:05] <yousefm87>  Hi everyone, I have a Intel 82801G (ICH7 Family) Sound card and I'm not gettin sound on my ubuntu partition. Anyone know how to fix this?
[02:05] <Flannel> wy: EVERYTHING in linux is a file.  Drives are files, files are files.  Your program knows no difference.
[02:05] <wy> Flannel: I want to let the program think my file is a real disk
[02:05] <gamerX> has anyone ever setup a 9600 chipset or any ati chipset on ubuntu 7.04
[02:05] <ghee> aaron__, i think you might have more luck mentioning your pastebin url as well
[02:05] <bruenig> directories are files
[02:05] <cerealkiller219> gamerX, I have the same card, and every time i set it up, it fails :(
[02:06] <n2diy> processes are files
[02:06] <cerealkiller219> I'm in the same boat :p
[02:06] <aaron__> Does anyone have any idea what this, http://pastebin.ca/524076 means, and how i can fix it?
[02:06] <wy> Flannel: But a mounted iso can't be used by the program. It wants to read something like /dev/hdb
[02:06] <Rick_medeiros> alguem BR???
[02:07] <Flannel> wy: Your ISO behaves just like a CD in a drive.
[02:07] <Flannel> !br | Rick_medeiros
[02:07] <ubotu> Rick_medeiros: Por favor use #ubuntu-br ou #ubuntu-pt  para ajuda em portugus. Obrigado.
[02:07] <Rick_medeiros> to prescisando de ajudaaa
[02:07] <cweagans> when I do sudo fdisk -l in a prompt, one of the filesystems is listed as "Linux". Is this the same as EXT3
[02:07] <gamerX> has anyone ever setup a radeon card on ubuntu 7.04
[02:07] <Semper> gamerx im trying to do that myself
[02:07] <gamerX> need help installing drivers otherwise i cant do beryl
[02:07] <Flannel> cweagans: whats the id next to it? (two digit number)
[02:07] <cweagans> Flannel: 83
[02:07] <rollerskatejamms> gamerX turn back now
[02:07] <gamerX> or games
[02:07] <Flannel> cweagans: thats ext3
[02:07] <Semper> beryl doesnt really work well with ati
[02:07] <bruenig> wy, direct it to the iso instead of the mount point, that could do it
[02:07] <Semper> lol
[02:07] <cweagans> flannel: awesome. thanks.
[02:07] <thelo> i'm having trouble configuring my wireless card.  it won't show up in the network settings
[02:08] <yousefm87> Does anyone know why my sound might not be working? I have an Intel 82801G (ICH7 family) sound card
[02:08] <thelo> semper_: i have it working on an ATI card
[02:08] <rollerskatejamms> beryl works fine with ati  plus xgl
[02:08] <thelo> semper_: it was really hard, but worth it
[02:08] <KSP> Does anyone know how to get around the wvdial failure to configure during upgrade?
[02:08] <Genecks> no.
[02:08] <Semper> @thelo: i still cant find out how...ive tried everything
[02:08] <wy> bruenig: That doesn't see to work...
[02:08] <gamerX> or just installing a driver so i can use cedega properly
[02:08] <Genecks> Here in #ubuntu, we're all idiots.
[02:08] <thelo> semper: i'll send you the link i used
[02:08] <Genecks> We just come here to act like we're smart.
[02:08] <gamerX> either way installing a driver with ati
[02:08] <Genecks> Most of us don't even have a college education.
[02:08] <gamerX> on ubuntu
[02:08] <thelo> semper_: do you have your XGL configured already?
[02:08] <Semper> @thelo: alright thankyou
[02:08] <rollerskatejamms> genecks speak for yourself
[02:08] <Semper> @thelo: no
[02:09] <Flannel> Genecks: please stop trolling
[02:09] <Genecks> I'm a neuroscientist, but I'M not a linux user.
[02:09] <Genecks> I love you, Flannel.
[02:09] <thelo> semper_: i don't know exactly what to do then; my friend set up my ATI graphics drivers while he was over and i didn't pay attention
[02:09] <thelo> semper_: but download the drivers from the website (choose your ATI card and it'll give you the right ones) and just install from the file manager, i guess
[02:10] <thelo> semper_: worked for me.
[02:10] <ubuntu-rocks> how about the ati tv wonder elite? anyone has this working on ubuntu?
[02:10] <thelo> can someone please help me with my wireless problem?
[02:10] <Semper> @thelo: i have envy and i installed the drivers from it

[02:12] <thelo> yep
[02:12] <thelo> that was all for you, semper
[02:12] <Will404[2] > erver irc.7chan.org
[02:12] <Semper> ok
[02:12] <thelo> the last two, at least
[02:12] <ghee> gurus, so no one knows why feisty would hang when logging out or shutting down?  i've seen the problem mentioned all over but haven't found a solution.  "ctrl-alt-backspace" works and so does the shut down halt command, but not the gui...
[02:12] <yousefm87> Does anyone here know why my sound might not be working?
[02:12] <anathematic> what is the command to format a drive in console someone?
[02:12] <n2diy> anathematic: can't you install the drive and let the Ubuntu install handle the formatting?
[02:12] <Semper> @thelo: how do i check
[02:12] <Trippen> hi guys i need help with an issue for some reason the after being idle for 15-20 minutes my system powers off the moniter i cant figure out how to disable this ive turned off the screensavers and set the power thing to never turn off moniter but it still does it even while watching a movie
[02:12] <anathematic> n2diy: no it's being stupid
[02:12] <TAKTLx>  sw1ft  hows it goin?
[02:12] <Genecks> @Genecks: Help?
[02:13] <anathematic> decided just to try this way
[02:13] <Semper> @thelo: to make sure they are working
[02:13] <nrdb> Hi, anyone here use encfs ?  how did it go ?
[02:13] <thelo> anathematic: i'd try mkfs ext2 -j /dev/sda
[02:13] <Vigo> K'zan: Write a cpy/pste script, or use the one allready there.
[02:13] <n2diy> anathematic: ok
[02:13] <thelo> anathematic: maybe that's just making the file system, not formatting, though
[02:13] <thompa> with beagle running i get about a constant 100% cpu usage on one of the duo cores
[02:13] <thelo> anathematic: mkfs.ext2 -j </dev/drive name>
[02:13] <gamerX> bah
[02:13] <anathematic> thelo:  well i've been checking the "format" box so yeah
[02:13] <nomad3345> Is there a yahoo messenger interface?
[02:13] <anathematic> i'll jsut try console :D
[02:13] <Semper> @thelo: beryl removed. now what
[02:14] <thelo> i'll find your link

[02:14] <Trippen> nomad3345,  gaim
[02:14] <aaron__> Can anyone explain why "Permission is denied" when i try to make a directory?
[02:14] <Watchman_> does someone could help me to setup the dhcp network on the ubuntu studio using a graphical user interface?
[02:14] <thompa> im not even using beagle but with it open its 100% cpu that is
[02:14] <barnball> nomad3345, gaim or kopete
[02:14] <nexous> thelo: am i 'cd'ing into the extracted directory? or where to be installed?
[02:14] <anathematic> rofl how do i know what is the name of the drive?
[02:14] <thelo> aaron__ type sudo first
[02:14] <nomad3345> Thanks..we'll look
[02:14] <nrdb> aaron__: have you checked the permission of the parent ?
[02:14] <thelo> anathematic: do you have IDE or SATA?
[02:14] <savetheWorld> aaron__: you dont have write privs on the dir you are trying to create the dir in.
[02:14] <Semper> @thelo: ?
[02:14] <anathematic> thelo:  sata
[02:14] <Vigo> GAIM is the YIM,AOL,ICQ whatever you ant
[02:14] <thelo> semper: looking
[02:15] <Vigo> *want
[02:15] <TAKTLx> !chmod
[02:15] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[02:15] <nomad3345> gotcha
[02:15] <thelo> anathematic: /dev/sda for first drive, /dev/sda1 for first drive, first partition
[02:15] <Trippen> hi guys i need help with an issue for some reason the after being idle for 15-20 minutes my system powers off the moniter i cant figure out how to disable this ive turned off the screensavers and set the power thing to never turn off moniter but it still does it even while watching a movie
[02:15] <anathematic> thelo:  thank you
[02:15] <thelo> anathematic: /dev/sdb for second drive, /dev/sdc5 for fifth partition on fifth drive
[02:15] <ghee> thompa, my friend had the same problem.  have you checked out alternatives like tracker, kdoodle, etc.?
[02:15] <nomad3345>  thanks vigo
[02:15] <thelo> semper: i'll find the guy that helped me yesterday
[02:15] <thelo> semper: brb
[02:15] <gamerX> am i having a hard time with this cuz im using 64 bit...i had an error say i dont have 32 bit dependencies..is there a way to get them
[02:15] <Semper> @thelo: ok
[02:15] <Th3Count> IM having 1 hell of a hard time getting my Laptop to connect to my wireless network (Broadcom 4011, Linksys WRT54G WPA Personal) can anyone give a hand? i've poked around on the help documentation and the wiki and i just can't get it to connect. Ubuntu sees my wireless card as eth1 not wlan0.
[02:16] <defcon> tor remote exploit in the wild disable tor
[02:16] <defcon> just got hacked
[02:16] <TAKTLx> Trippen  srry dont know
[02:16] <K`zan> Anyone know of something a handicapped person can use to paste in a phone number and have the modem dial it?
[02:16] <aaron__> nrdb: I don't know what that means, i'm trying to get my sound card to work following online instructions. they directions say to type "cd /usr/src" and then "mkdir alsa" and it says i don't have permission
[02:16] <TAKTLx> Trippen  tried #ubuntu-uk
[02:16] <thompa> ghee: i quit beagle and its still using cpu in sleep mode
[02:16] <thelo> semper: here ya go: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/BerylOnXgl
[02:16] <Trippen> why would i try ubuntu uk
[02:17] <wy> Has anyone installed Mac OS X in vmware under Ubuntu?
[02:17] <TAKTLx> they speak english too
[02:17] <ghee> thompa, yeah, my friend just uninstalled it to save his cpu...
[02:17] <barnball> aaron__,  type sudo before those commands
[02:17] <Semper> @thelo: thats to install beryl
[02:17] <TAKTLx> horizons
[02:17] <barnball> it then runs them as root
[02:17] <thelo> semper: what do you need?
[02:17] <thelo> semper: hold on to that, though
[02:17] <aaron__> barnball: yeah, i did
[02:17] <thelo> semper: it works very very well
[02:17] <migraine_> join #haskell
[02:17] <migraine_> doh
[02:17] <thompa> ghee: thanks im going to do the same, is it across the board or just on certain systems
[02:17] <Semper> @thelo: i need for my ati x200 to accept desktop effects and beryl aswell
[02:17] <thelo> semper: if you still need XGL (or the drivers) then i'd go to irc.freenode.net#beryl
[02:17] <nrdb> aaron__: for making a directory (or creating a file) in /usr/src you need to be 'root' use sudo
[02:17] <thelo> semper: they're very nice and very helpful
[02:18] <thelo> aaron__: wtf that's not right
[02:18] <soneil> wy, it's a discussion hampered by legal issues.  you'd most likely have to look outside of the ubuntu project for anything useful
[02:18] <thelo> aaron__: you can't use sudo?
[02:18] <ghee> thompa, just certain systems.  beagle works fine on mine...
[02:18] <luckyfish> is it possible to connect to the internet using a mobile phone connected to a pc/laptop ?
[02:18] <Semper> @thelo: i have my ati drivers installed
[02:18] <Trippen> hi guys i need help with an issue for some reason the after being idle for 15-20 minutes my system powers off the moniter i cant figure out how to disable this ive turned off the screensavers and set the power thing to never turn off moniter but it still does it even while watching a movie
[02:18] <Quintin> luckyfish: yes
[02:18] <barnball> so, when in /usr/src type "sudo mkdir alsa" put in your root password, and there ya go
[02:18] <thelo> semper: for xgl, go to that channel.  they'll fix you up nice
[02:18] <Semper> @thelo: desktop effects just still doesnt work
[02:18] <thelo> semper: they'd be a lot mroe help than me
[02:18] <thelo> semper: ^_^ i'm still a newbie
[02:18] <Genecks> How do I fsck you?
[02:18] <Quintin> Trippen: Remove the line DPMS in /etx/X11/xorg.conf
[02:18] <thelo> genecks: in the butt?
[02:18] <Semper> @thelo: what channel was it again?
[02:18] <thelo> genecks: sorry, i misread
[02:18] <aaron__> thelo: i used sudo before those commands, and they didn't work. i'll try again though
[02:18] <fbuilesv> Hello, what happened to Hotplug in recent Ubuntu versions? (breezy+)
[02:19] <ghee> thompa, not that the alternatives are necessarily great...  there may be a fix to that bug, though; would be worth googling.
[02:19] <thelo> semper: irc.freenode.net#beryl
[02:19] <thelo> semper: just type /join #beryl
[02:19] <barnball> so, when in /usr/src type "sudo mkdir alsa" put in your root password, and there ya go aaron__
[02:19] <Genecks> Do I need permissions?
[02:19] <luckyfish> with my mobile i can use 3g service for fast speeds with mobile. but its very expensive. is it possible to dial out like 56k modem with a mobile?
[02:19] <thompa> ghee: im using linux mint and it was up by default
[02:19] <Genecks> DO I need permissions to fsck?
[02:19] <luckyfish> dial a cheap acces number i mean
[02:19] <Semper> @thelo: thankyou
[02:19] <Genecks> Or if I was root, would that be wrong?
[02:19] <TAKTLx> Trippen  maybe in #debian somebody knows too
[02:19] <luckyfish> speed isnt an issue
[02:19] <cables> No one is root in Ubuntu
[02:19] <malcolm> i put an old nvidia card in my computer, and booted it up, and the xserver gave me trouble, so i figured ether the card's bad(more than likely) and removed it, then started it up againusing the onboard intel 810 (which worked b4 i put the card in), but not instead of getting a graphical loggin or a text loggin i get a solid grey screen, and have no clue how to fix it.  can some1 help me?
[02:19] <yousefm87> do you guys know where to find conexant drivers for ubuntu/
[02:19] <Trippen> Quintin, thanks i try that..
[02:20] <thelo> genecks: i don't know; it is messing with the disk; you need permissions, i'd assume
[02:20] <ghee> thompa, i see.  well, maybe you can check out tracker or kdoodle.
[02:20] <soneil> Genecks: of course you need permissions.  letting random users have raw access to disks negates all filesystem ACLs
[02:20] <eshaase> whats a good desktop widget app? I'm looking for something like google's personalized search page (igoogle)
[02:20] <Th3Count> what file is responsible for my network card information so i can change my wireless from eth1 to wlan0?
[02:20] <thelo> cables: i'm root
[02:20] <thelo> cables: i'm everyone's root
[02:20] <Quintin> malcolm: Can you get to a VTY with ctrl + alt + F1?
[02:20] <barnball> cables, there still is a root user in ubuntu, it's just..different lol
[02:20] <thelo> Th3Count: i'm still having troubles, too....
[02:20] <cables> thelo, you created a root account?
[02:20] <Trippen> Quintin,  do i need to reboot for that to take affect ?
[02:20] <cables> barnball, there is, but there's no root password
[02:20] <Genecks> What is better? Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[02:20] <Quintin> eshaase: might look at gdesklets
[02:20] <thompa> ghee: thanks will try tracker maybe
[02:20] <cables> Genecks, it's a matter of preference
[02:20] <Quintin> Trippen: reboot?  this isn't windows kid.
[02:20] <Genecks> One has to be better, though
[02:20] <khin> hi im trying to access the internet out of my university's network on ethernet but having an intermittent problem. sometimes, i can load google and search for things, and the search works, but i can't load any other website. google is my homepage btw.
[02:20] <Genecks> right?
[02:20] <barnball> yea there is, its your admin password
[02:21] <Trippen> Quintin,  do i need to restart the xserver for it to take affect
[02:21] <Quintin> Trippen: Restart X.  ctrl alt bksp, or /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[02:21] <nrdb> thelo: you don't need to create one.
[02:21] <lach> howdy

[02:23] <illriginal> Hey guys, how do I find my Themes folder?
[02:23] <cables> aaron__, or sudo -i
[02:23] <callidusfox> Does anyone know if it is possible to connect to both wireless (will give me my internet) and wired network (will be used for lan sharing) ??
[02:23] <Quintin> callidusfox: of course it is
[02:23] <nrdb> callidusfox: yes
[02:23] <callidusfox> Quintin: nrdb: does it take rocket science to do it? Or can it be done via gui network manager ?
[02:24] <mroc> callidusfox:   yes, you can do connection sharing - i find it easiest to use firestarter to configure this
[02:24] <lach> is is possible to run a usb adsl modem under unbuntu?
[02:24] <maynards-girl> how can I tell if my video card is configured correctly (meaning has the right drivers)?
[02:24] <DerangedDingo> illriginal: ~/.themes
[02:24] <illriginal> yeah im tryin to find it in my browser
[02:24] <nrdb> callidusfox: don't know never done it.
[02:24] <Quintin> callidusfox: do you want to setup a NAT gateway?  or justu have 2 ifaces?
[02:24] <illriginal> DerangedDingo, I need to access the folder but via GUI
[02:24] <malcolm_> lan cable came loose, anyway, yes i'm logged in, but startx gives me errors about something already being in use
[02:24] <cables> maynards-girl, if it works, you've got the right drivers. If it's too slow, you don't.
[02:25] <DerangedDingo> open nautilus and go to your home folder, hit control + h and find it
[02:25] <maynards-girl> cables: i would say it's slow then

[02:25] <cables> maynards-girl, in general, or are you running any 3d apps, screensavers, or games?
[02:26] <aaron__> Can anyone tell me why "sudo modprobe snd-" comes back with, "FATAL: Module snd_not found"?
[02:26] <DerangedDingo> illriginal: open nautilus and go to your home folder, hit control + h and find it
[02:26] <maynards-girl> cables: games. and the're slow and set to the lowest setting (meaning 2d not 3d)
[02:26] <cables> maynards-girl, ok. What type of graphics card do you have?
[02:26] <callidusfox> Quintin: you caught me on this, NAT gateway and ifaces? I think it might be more of 2 ifaces, I have a wireless router I will be using for internet access foe my entire house. The wired network will only go from my router to the network Media player attached to my TV. That is all I want. So I am thinking to either connect my media player to my laptopt via wired router or maybe even do a direct connect? But I a
[02:26] <callidusfox> lready have a long network cable and an extra wired router, do not want to buy one of those cross over cables as it will be extra $$ I do not need to waste I think.
[02:26] <nrdb> callidusfox: be carefull on the protocol for the wireless, don't use WEP its encryption is badly broken.
[02:27] <callidusfox> nrdb: I need encryption to work.
[02:27] <maynards-girl> cables: on the box it's a PNY geForce 7600 GS 512mb agp 8x
[02:27] <wy> I still haven't succeed in letting vmware read the iso file as a DVD drive.
[02:27] <cables> I don't really need a software firewall because I'm already behind a hardware firewall, but I'd like to see what Firestarter has to offer. Is there any way to back up my iptables settings before I run it in case I screw things up?
[02:27] <cables> maynards-girl, ok, are you on Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
[02:27] <maynards-girl> cables: ubuntu
[02:27] <Jordan_U> wy, What happens when you try ?
[02:28] <cables> maynards-girl, go to System>Administration>Restricted Drivers Manager
[02:28] <TAKTLx> lach https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[02:28] <wy> Jordan_U: It can't read the disk content. I guess that's because the iso is in hfs+ file system
[02:28] <malcolm> Quintin: yes i can. now what do i do to fix it?
[02:29] <nrdb> callidusfox: you need cncryption to protect yourself from anyone using you whole system anyway they choose.
[02:29] <illriginal> DerangedDingo, is there any way I can change icons from a current theme, without changin themes. Such as the Power/Restart button/icon?
[02:29] <maynards-girl> cables: it's rebotting now
[02:29] <wy> Jordan_U:  So I think I need a way to simulate a real drive using the iso file.
[02:29] <Jordan_U> wy, What iso do you have in HFS+ format ( didn't even know that was possible ), Linux can read HFS+ fine though
[02:29] <cables> maynards-girl, why is it rebooting now?
[02:29] <delight> !avahi
[02:29] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about avahi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:29] <callidusfox> nrdb: from public accessing all the shared files and using the internet
[02:29] <cables> !iso | wy
[02:29] <maynards-girl> cables: i clicked enable
[02:29] <ubotu> wy: 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.
[02:29] <cables> maynards-girl, oh, ok
[02:30] <lach> talkxl - my modem isnt there :(
[02:30] <nrdb> callidusfox: yes
[02:30] <lach> its a netcomm nb1300 and i need to connect it via usb
[02:30] <TAKTLx> hmm :(
[02:30] <callidusfox> nrdb: please look at the long post I sent to Quintin
[02:30] <maynards-girl> cables: xserver failed to start
[02:30] <lach> i know linux is picky with usb modems
[02:31] <TAKTLx> and ndiswrapper
[02:31] <cables> maynards-girl, ok. For some reason I guess the driver isn't working. Hit ctrl-alt-f1 so we can set it back to the old one.
[02:31] <TAKTLx> !ndiswrapper > lach
[02:31] <Jordan_U> wy, What is the iso file you are trying to use an image of?
[02:32] <lach> talklx - its not wireless
[02:32] <maynards-girl> cables: ok. logged in now (text mode)
[02:32] <yousefm87> does anyone know why my sound isn't working
[02:32] <techjimbo> Hey guys I'm going to pick up a USB netgear w111.  should I grab v1 or v2??Anyone in here have any luck with either?
[02:32] <cables> maynards-girl, ok, hold on a sec
[02:32] <TAKTLx> oh
[02:32] <yousefm87> i believe my sound card is an intel 82801g ICH7family car
[02:32] <yousefm87> d
[02:33] <wy> Jordan_U: Because vmware can't read the file system. I must somehow "mount" it. But how can I tell vmware to read it as a drive instead of a directory?
[02:33] <khin> oh hey, im accessing a solaris system on ssh, the c compiler is cc right? what is this, just another name for gcc or what? and wheres the c++ compiler?
[02:33] <tbuss> I have an Audigy2 platinum ex; the actual card works fine but how do I get the external I/O box to work? The volume control and Mic volume control have no effect on volume
[02:33] <TAKTLx> how can i view what i have hooked on parallel port
[02:33] <nrdb> callidusfox: with the wireless are all you connected devices PCs ?
[02:33] <Jordan_U> wy, Again, what is this an iso of? I have never heard of an HFS+ iso, ( A .dmg file is *not* an iso BTW )
[02:34] <administrador> canal
[02:34] <callidusfox> nrdb: Yes, but streaming DVDs via wireless will most probably result in lags and signal drops.
[02:34] <administrador> }kjdf
[02:34] <cables> maynards-girl, type < sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg >
[02:34] <maynards-girl> cables: ok
[02:34] <Slyboots> Anyone here used FUSE with ntfs-3g? Got a weird issue when trying to copy files to a ntfs partition in nautlius, the ETA just rises (appaernetly forever) unless I open the destionation folder and select the 0byte file is created
[02:34] <cables> callidusfox, why will streaming dvds over wireless cause lags and signal drops?
[02:34] <callidusfox> nrdb: laptop and tv are in basement, router will be in the kitchen one floor above
[02:34] <maynards-girl> cables: there already
[02:35] <Slyboots> At which point the copy kicks in and speeds along as usual
[02:35] <yousefm87> how come noone answers my questions?
[02:35] <callidusfox> cables: not sure, but that usually is the case, NO ?
[02:35] <Jordan_U> Slyboots, What happens when you try to copy it using the terminal?
[02:35] <yousefm87> i've been here for like an hour asking the same question
[02:35] <yousefm87> yet noone responds
[02:35] <Slyboots> Seems to work okay, although does take a little while
[02:35] <Jordan_U> yousefm87, It may be that nobody knows the answer
[02:35] <cables> callidusfox, lag, maybe, but not signal drops. I stream DVDs at nearly full quality over my 802.11g network without any problem.
[02:35] <cables> maynards-girl, sorry, I'm sorta multitasking :)
[02:35] <cables> maynards-girl, what stage are you at?
[02:35] <yousefm87> well does ayone know the answer?!
[02:36] <techjimbo> Hey guys I'm going to pick up a USB netgear w111.  should I grab v1 or v2??Anyone in here have any luck with either?
[02:36] <Jordan_U> yousefm87, What is the question? :)
[02:36] <Slyboots> Jordan_U: Seems to work okay, although does take a little while, used top and cp
[02:36] <cables> yousefm87, calm down, some of us don't even know your question.
[02:36] <maynards-girl> cables: configuring xserver-org; where is says to select an x server driver
[02:36] <cables> maynards-girl, select "nv"
[02:36] <yousefm87> sorry its just irritating when you ask the same question like 10 times and never get a response
[02:36] <callidusfox> cables: hmm maybe U should try as I am a bit skeptikal that it will work as internet, and 5 more pcs will be pulling data to and from the router
[02:36] <yousefm87> anyway my sound isn't working
[02:36] <tbuss> do I need a driver for the I/O external box that comes with the sb audigy2 platinum ex?
[02:37] <yousefm87> I believe my sound card is 82801g (ICH7 family)
[02:37] <cables> callidusfox, over the internet, no. Over the network, it should by fine
[02:37] <Jordan_U> yousefm87, Was it ever working or is this a new problem?
[02:37] <maynards-girl> cables: done
[02:37] <maynards-girl> cables: back at the command line prompt
[02:37] <yousefm87> never worked on my ubuntu partition
[02:37] <cables> maynards-girl, ok, type < sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart >
[02:37] <Jordan_U> yousefm87, Do you see volume controls when you run "alsamixer" in a terminal?
[02:38] <snowninja> how can I force a refresh rate that is not available in the "screen resolution pref"??
[02:38] <Slyboots> Its driving me up the freaking wall
[02:38] <nrdb> callidusfox: to stop anyone using you internet you will need to use encryption, try and use WPA encryption, WEP encrytion wasn't implemented correctly, see the podcasts on ww.grc.com to find all details.  A cross over LAN cable will connect 2 devices together but no more.
[02:38] <yousefm87> yes
[02:38] <Linuturk> I have one CD drive on my laptop. Under My Computer, 2 cd rom drives are displayed.
[02:38] <maynards-girl> cables: graphical screen now up
[02:38] <Jordan_U> snowninja, Are you sure that you have the correct drivers for your card?
[02:38] <ubuntuEdgy> will a server work just as good with no graphics card at all ?
[02:38] <snowninja> ... no
[02:38] <Linuturk> I have one CD drive on my laptop. Under My Computer, 2 cd rom drives are displayed. I removed the extra from /media/ , but it still appears
[02:38] <callidusfox> nrdb: I have been using WPA for the past 3 years.
[02:38] <mneptok> nrdb: WEP was implemented 100% correctly.
[02:39] <snowninja> all i know is that the refresh rate is not correct... it is too high
[02:39] <mneptok> nrdb: it's just not very strong encryption
[02:39] <Jordan_U> yousefm87, Make sure that they are all turned up and unmuted ( use the "m" key to mute/unmute )
[02:39] <Slyboots> Anyone have any idea what could be causing this issue, I realy could use a solution
[02:39] <TAKTLx> yousefm87 you got alsautils ... installed
[02:39] <cables> mneptok, not true, the algorithm it uses is fine, it was simply implemented in a very breakable way.
[02:39] <nrdb> mneptok: no it wasn't its can be cracked in about 1 minute now.
[02:39] <ubuntuEdgy> snowninja:  edit you /etc/X11./xorg.conf
[02:39] <yousefm87> i don't think so
[02:39] <yousefm87> but they are all unmuted
[02:40] <Jordan_U> snowninja, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[02:40] <timothy> ok, i got my swap to enable during boot, but i still can't make it suspend or hibernate. any suggestions?
[02:40] <guinex> is there and easy way of automatically installing the corresponding *-dev packages for all the packages on my system?
[02:40] <techjimbo> Hey guys I'm going to pick up a USB netgear w111.  should I grab v1 or v2??Anyone in here have any luck with either?
[02:40] <Linuturk> I have one CD drive on my laptop. Under My Computer, 2 cd rom drives are displayed. I removed the extra from /media/ , but it still appears. How do I get rid of it?
[02:40] <mneptok> nrdb: just because it can be unencrypted easily doesn't mean the implementation is flawedi
[02:40] <tbuss> do I need a driver for the I/O external box that comes with the sb audigy2 platinum ex?
[02:40] <mneptok> -i
[02:40] <Jordan_U> yousefm87, Do you get any sound from this command: cat /dev/urandom | aplay
[02:40] <Jordan_U> ?
[02:40] <TAKTLx> $sudo apt-get install alsautils  && sudo alsaconf    i think
[02:40] <morpheus74> Can someone help me with permission under 6.10?
[02:40] <mneptok> techjimbo: a USB what-now?
[02:41] <snowninja> how can I restart the X server?
[02:41] <maynards-girl> cables: logged in. it now says restricted drivers in use
[02:41] <TAKTLx> yousefm87 ^^
[02:41] <bruenig> ctrl + alt + backspace, snowninja
[02:41] <mneptok> snowninja: ctl-alt-backspace
[02:41] <snowninja> thx
[02:41] <yousefm87> that command hasn't given me sounds
[02:41] <nrdb> mneptok: no it doesn't but in this case it wasn't done correctly I don't remember the details but it has something to do with the how the keys are used, see the security now podcast at www.grc.com for more details.
[02:41] <yousefm87> but i'll try taktl's thing right now
[02:41] <cables> maynards-girl, that's weird... because they shouldn't be. We disabled the driver because it didn't work.
[02:41] <mneptok> nrdb: Steve Gibson is an idiot, AFAIC. :)
[02:42] <Jordan_U> yousefm87, What about : cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp
[02:42] <morpheus74> I'm having trouble with setting file permissions on a shared file, please help.
[02:42] <Jordan_U> morpheus74, What type of problems?
[02:42] <maynards-girl> cables, there's a little green card like thingie in the right top corner toolbar that says "New restricted drivers in use".  It wasn't there before
[02:42] <cables> mneptok, he may be, but that doesn't make you any less wrong... it's not a bad encryption algorithm, it's just a really insecure implementation that exposes the weaknesses in the encryption algorithm they did use
[02:42] <techjimbo> mneptok: it's just a USB wifi dongle.  I'm going to be creating a "woktenna".  You have any luck with a belkin usb wifi?
[02:43] <cables> maynards-girl, try doing whatever you used to do that was slow
[02:43] <morpheus74> Jordan_U, I created a shared folder so my wife and I can both access pictures under our own accounts.
[02:43] <mneptok> techjimbo: why not PCMCIA?
[02:43] <kevincastfiction> How do I run dpkg --configure -a?
[02:43] <mneptok> techjimbo: USB wireless dongles are notoriously flaky
[02:43] <snowninja> snowninja
[02:43] <morpheus74> Jordan_U, the file is folder is on my account, with a sys link to the on her account, does that make sense so far?
[02:43] <cables> kevincastfiction, open a terminal and do < sudo dpkg --configure -a >
[02:43] <kevincastfiction> cables: Thank you.
[02:43] <Jordan_U> kevincastfiction, "sudo dpkg --configure -a"
[02:43] <TAKTLx> !chmod > morpheus
[02:44] <kevincastfiction> Thank you Jordan_U
[02:44] <Jordan_U> morpheus74, Yes
[02:44] <morpheus74> Jordan_U, I set up the file under the users group, and assigned both of us to the users group.  I then set the file permission to group rwx.
[02:45] <maynards-girl> cables: still not working. when I do the glxinfo thing too it says { Xlib: extension "GLX" missing on display ":0.0". }
[02:45] <Jordan_U> morpheus74, Files you create there will still be owned by you, even if the folder isn't
[02:45] <maynards-girl> cables: still slow
[02:45] <morpheus74> Jordan_U, However, when I add new pictures to the folder, the folder the new pictures are in cannot be access from the non-owner account (depending on who put the pics on the computer.
[02:45] <cables> maynards-girl, ok, that's to be expected. I don't know why the driver doesn't work.

[02:46] <maynards-girl> cables: wel lthanks for trying to help me
[02:46] <cables> callidusfox, yeah, but that really has nothing to do with it
[02:46] <cables> maynards-girl, sorry I couldn't get it to work
[02:47] <callidusfox> cables: are you sure and I've read that encryption causes not as good signals as without encryption
[02:47] <maynards-girl> cables: it's ok. thanks you for the help though. i appreciate it
[02:47] <morpheus74> Jordan_U, So each time I add pictures, I have to go to the folder of the pictures I just added, and change the group file permission to rwx.  Is there a way I can do this once and for all times?
[02:48] <maynards-girl> cables: i did learn something new today- that being that < sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart > restarts the xserver without rebooting. :)
[02:48] <Jordan_U> morpheus74, Only by allowing her access to any files you create by default ( I think )
[02:48] <cables> maynards-girl, ctrl-alt-backspace does too
[02:48] <mneptok> callidusfox: that's like saying "it's much easier to pee if i don't wear pants." sure, it may be true, but walking around without pants is a *really* bad idea.
[02:48] <whonicca> can someone help me with a problem im having with nautilus, it keep crashing when i try to open a folder
[02:48] <whonicca> this has me on the verge of just formatting
[02:48] <cables> maynards-girl, sometimes that's a bit faster, but it only works when you're actually in a functioning X
[02:48] <whonicca> =\
[02:48] <callidusfox> mneptok: :-)
[02:49] <whonicca> is there any log or anything i can look at
[02:49] <whonicca> to c whats going on
[02:49] <kevincastfiction> The opera .deb file I'm trying to open keeps giving me an error. It says it's either corrupted or my permissions aren't set-up. The permissions are fine, so how is the file corrupted? It's from the Opera's official website. I tried to install it before I ran dpkg --configure -a.
[02:49] <Jordan_U> whonicca, You can open it from a terminal and look at the output
[02:49] <mneptok> whonicca: what is the name of the dir and where is it?
[02:49] <whonicca> there is no output
[02:49] <whonicca> it just stays stuck
[02:49] <cables> callidusfox, there may be issues with certain drivers and encryption. However, it won't change the physical signal in any way.
[02:49] <whonicca> mneptok, desktop
[02:50] <mneptok> kevincastfiction: sudo dpkg -i nameof.deb
[02:50] <Jordan_U> kevincastfiction, Why not use the Opera from the repositories?
[02:50] <cables> Jordan_U, it's not in the repos
[02:50] <mneptok> whonicca: what is the name of the dir?
[02:50] <cables> Jordan_U, I remember it being in the commercial repo in Edgy, but I looked and it isn't in Feisty.
[02:50] <snowninja> my terminal went away... please help??  pst
[02:50] <Jordan_U> cables, Yes it is, I see it in apt
[02:50] <kevincastfiction> mneptok: I'll try it.
[02:50] <kevincastfiction> Jordan_U: I don't know Opera's repo name.
[02:50] <whonicca> mneptok, last o9ne i tried was iXtreme10.rar_files

[02:51] <cables> ah
[02:51] <cables> ok
[02:51] <anathematic> what's a good mp3 player software for ubuntu? (being able to use my ipod with it woudl be great as well)
[02:51] <mroc> kevincastfiction:   it's just opera
[02:51] <cables> anathematic, the built in one works fine
[02:51] <mneptok> whonicca: that's a corrupted archive
[02:51] <mneptok> whonicca: your .rar is bad.
[02:51] <anathematic> cables:  can i sync my ipod with that?
[02:51] <kevincastfiction> mroc: It says it can't find the archive for it.
[02:51] <tbuss> is there a way to use the remote and external rack for the sb audigy2 platinum ex?
[02:51] <mroc> kevincastfiction: oh sorry, thought you asked for package name
[02:51] <mneptok> whonicca: use zip or something. rar is trash.
[02:52] <cables> anathematic, I think you can... if you can't, try Amarok (It'll pull down over a hundred MB of KDE dependencies if you don't use KDE, though.
[02:52] <cables> )
[02:52] <whonicca> mneptok, ok so how do i restart nautilus =\ cause no matter what i try its not starting
[02:52] <mneptok> whonicca: log out and back in
[02:52] <cables> Jordan_U, that's funny, I see Opera in aptitude
[02:52] <whonicca> also the latest kernel update just freezes my system
[02:52] <jamster545> hi jenda
[02:52] <anathematic> cables:  thank you i'll try it now =)

[02:54] <smallfoot-> ok
[02:54] <mayorbuttes> aw dudes, Hal failed to hibernate. Check the help file for common problems.
[02:55] <Jordan_U> mayorbuttes, Do you have an ATI card?
[02:55] <smallfoot-> "All iPods can function as mass storage devices to store data files; this function is controlled by the "Enable Disk Use" option in iTunes."
[02:55] <smallfoot-> do i have to enable it in itunes first?
[02:55] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U: No.
[02:55] <cables> smallfoot-, no, there's a keypad shortcut to restart your iPod in Disk Mode
[02:55] <Jordan_U> smallfoot-, I don't think so
[02:55] <Baalia1> How do I properly reinstall my network drivers?
[02:55] <anathematic> http://amarok.kde.org/wiki/Download :< where is ubuntu?
[02:55] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U: I manage to catch "Not enough swap available.
[02:55] <mayorbuttes> I have 512 as swap memory.
[02:55] <smallfoot-> oh
[02:55] <cables> anathematic, install from the repos!
[02:55] <bruenig> !info amarok | anathematic
[02:55] <ubotu> anathematic: amarok: versatile and easy to use audio player for KDE. In component main, is optional. Version 2:1.4.5-0ubuntu7 (feisty), package size 14853 kB, installed size 33992 kB
[02:55] <Jordan_U> smallfoot-, Make sure that it isn't mac formatted though
[02:55] <techjimbo> any1 else feel like this latest kernel update stole all your resources?
[02:55] <cables> anathematic, have you been installing things by downloading them?
[02:56] <smallfoot-> cabldevil, does it remove the data if you restart it in Disk Mode?
[02:56] <cables> anathematic, go to Applications>Add/Remove
[02:56] <cables> smallfoot-, no
[02:56] <anathematic> cables:  na using the command propmt
[02:56] <anathematic> but i was feeling lazy
[02:56] <Jordan_U> mayorbuttes, How large is your swap partition?
[02:56] <bruenig> kubuntu is on there anyways
[02:56] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U: 512 MB
[02:56] <smallfoot-> Jordan_U, if i buy a ipod, i can format it to FAT32, and then dont worry about that?
[02:56] <cables> anathematic, yeah, it's easier to do "sudo aptitude install amarok" than go to the amarok webpage though...
[02:56] <Jordan_U> smallfoot-, Yes
[02:56] <anathematic> yeah that's what i'm doing now
[02:56] <cables> smallfoot-, you should probably format it to fat32 w/ iTunes to avoid screwing up its awesomeness
[02:56] <smallfoot-> why isnt Disk Mode, enabled by default? why they closed that so you have to use itunes or keypad?
[02:56] <Jordan_U> smallfoot-, I think most come FAT32 but I am not sure
[02:57] <smallfoot-> oh
[02:57] <smallfoot-> oh, i dont want itunes, its proprietary software
[02:57] <taime1> can anyone tell me why i cannot right click my desktop, and when i go to 'desktop background' in system menu, the background image suddenly appears but is badly distorted??
[02:57] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U: Actually, mayve there's a chance I messed that up on install. How do I check how big my swap is?
[02:57] <Slart> how can I prevent cron from spamming my syslog with messages about scheduled command
[02:57] <cables> smallfoot-, because disk mode means you have to eject it manually after syncing (in iTunes)
[02:57] <Jordan_U> smallfoot-, I think that it is a software limitation, not a harware one, so it shouldn't need to be "enabled" to see the drive in Linux
[02:57] <cables> smallfoot-, if you don't want proprietary software, don't use an iPod.
[02:58] <techjimbo> any1 else feel like this latest kernel update stole all your RAM?
[02:58] <cables> smallfoot-, unless you put Rockbox on it, you're using a proprietary OS
[02:58] <bruenig> smallfoot-, don't use your bios either
[02:58] <smallfoot-> cabldevil, ah... so when its not in disk mode, you can just put in, and out without have to eject or anything?
[02:58] <Colossus> cables: well, you can ues rockbox on it, but rockbox sucks balls
[02:58] <cables> Colossus, yeah :(
[02:58] <Colossus> my iPod kept overheating and running out of batteries like crazy
[02:58] <Baalia1> How do I reinstall my network drivers? I use a DWL-G520
[02:58] <cables> smallfoot-, you might as well chuck your computer out the window if you don't want to run proprietary software
[02:58] <smallfoot-> bruenig, well i cant control everything, too bad, i have to use BIOS, but i wish it was open source, but its not anything i can change
[02:59] <cables> Colossus, that didn't happen to me, but I just thought the UI was horrendous
[02:59] <Baalia1> The appropriate driver I think is Atheros AR5212
[02:59] <smallfoot-> cables, i do what i can, to avoid using proprietary software, to reasonable extents
[02:59] <cables> I have the same chipset, it works out of the box
[03:00] <Jordan_U> mayorbuttes, look at the partition size in gparted
[03:01] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U: 486MiB
[03:01] <dromer> how can I make a program start on boot?
[03:01] <bruenig> dromer, system>preferences>sessions
[03:01] <Jordan_U> mayorbuttes, And How much RAM do you have?
[03:01] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U 2 GB
[03:01] <Consty> Is their an extended font pack for Ubuntu, so I can get some nice fonts available in The Gimp?  Something in the repositories?
[03:02] <Jordan_U> mayorbuttes, You should have at least 1.5x the amount of swap space as you have RAM to hibernate
[03:02] <brk3> Consty: theres a mega pack of about 4000 fonts on kde-look.org
[03:02] <dromer> bruenig: kde here, I'd like a commandline-way
[03:02] <smallfoot-> anyone know if there will be a third-generation iPod nano?
[03:02] <smallfoot-> nano is the only ipod that appeal to me
[03:02] <Consty> brk3: Are those for kde only?
[03:02] <bruenig> dromer, when I used kde for a day, I remember there being some .autostart directory in ~ or something similar, #kubuntu will know probably
[03:02] <soneil> smallfoot-, offtopic, but I suspect if people keep buying them, they'll keep making them.  tis how the world works
[03:02] <bruenig> dromer, you can always add it to the ~/.xinitrc
[03:02] <brk3> Consty: no they're standard ttf fonts so you can use them on anything
[03:02] <Pale_folklore> may I ask a very very basic question?
[03:02] <dromer> bruenig: I don't want the program to start with the wm, but with the computer
[03:03] <bruenig> Pale_folklore, you may not
[03:03] <Jordan_U> mayorbuttes, So you need around 3 GIG of swap
[03:03] <brk3> Pale_folklore: no :P
[03:03] <effie_jayx> is there an official comment on the kernel update and no X server ?
[03:03] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U: Why in the hell?
[03:03] <dromer> bruenig: it's an audioscrobler for mpd
[03:03] <bruenig> dromer, oh you need an init script, or perhaps if it is a simple command add it to /etc/rc.local
[03:03] <joerlend> I've installed ntfs-3g. How do I mount a disk as read-write?
[03:03] <dromer> bruenig: ah ok :)
[03:03] <Miso> how do i navigate to my desktop in the terminal?
[03:03] <LjL> Miso: cd ~/Desktop
[03:03] <Jordan_U> mayorbuttes, Because when you hibernate it has to put the contents of RAM into swap
[03:03] <brk3> joerlend: once you have it installed it should be already set up, just run sudo mount -a
[03:03] <Miso> LjL thanks
[03:04] <Consty> brk3: What's the actual name of the pack?
[03:04] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U: Ah, I see.
[03:04] <Pale_folklore> ok, someone willing to answer a very very basic question let me know, and I'll pm you
[03:04] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U: I thought that was sleep?
[03:04] <Consty> brk3: The 6,760 fonts?
[03:04] <dromer> bruenig: can you explain what I have to add?
[03:04] <LjL> !ask | Pale_folklore
[03:04] <ubotu> Pale_folklore: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[03:04] <brk3> Consty: ya rekon thats it
[03:04] <Consty> brk3: That wouldn't slow down any apps or anything would it?  That many fonts?  sheesh!
[03:04] <joerlend> brk3, it doesn't mount all my ntfs-partitions. I've several hdds. I have to add them to fstab, but I don't know how.
[03:05] <dromer> bruenig: I just want mpdscribble to start, do I just put it above exit 0 ?
[03:05] <Jordan_U> mayorbuttes, No, sleep is when you run in a low power mode but keep the contents of RAM, hibernate is when the computer completely powers off
[03:05] <bruenig> dromer, if you are going the rc.local route, just put whatever commands you would put to execute it as if it were a terminal (remember that they will be run as root so no sudo or anything) yeah put it above the exit 0
[03:05] <mayorbuttes> Jordan_U: Ah ok. Thanks very much :)
[03:05] <Pale_folklore> I'm a newbie, and want to learn ubuntu--does it matter if I download it OR use the cd?
[03:05] <Jordan_U> mayorbuttes, np
[03:05] <brk3> Consty: ya to be honest i remember it slowed down my startup a fair bit so your prob better off just picking out some ones you like. there are some really nice ones in there though
[03:05] <dromer> bruenig: ok thnx :)
[03:05] <Miso> what is the command to run a .run file from terminal?
[03:05] <bruenig> dromer, it just gets sourced during boot so think of it like that
[03:05] <Jordan_U> Pale_folklore, What do you mean by download it or use the CD?
[03:05] <msdtux> joerlend, check hdd by : dmesg | grep hda
[03:06] <smallfoot-> Miso, try ./ or sh
[03:06] <smallfoot-> Miso: "sh foobar.run"
[03:06] <mroc> Pale_folklore:   did you mean install it or use it as a live CD?
[03:06] <smallfoot-> Miso: "./foobar.run"
[03:06] <jrib> Miso: what is the .run for?
[03:06] <dromer> bruenig: what are other ways are there to start programs like this on boot?
[03:06] <Pale_folklore> Jordan_U: I can download it to my pc from the website, or I can request a cd and use the cd to run it
[03:06] <Miso> jrib i'm trying to install a game
[03:07] <joerlend> msdtux, hmm? I know the device names, they're sda1 and sdb1
[03:07] <jrib> Miso: k, just make sure it isn't in the repos before using the .run
[03:07] <Jordan_U> Pale_folklore, Same thing, but the download will take much less time unless you have a very slow connection
[03:07] <bruenig> dromer, you can write an init script which has to follow the init scrpt rules and put it in /etc/init.d and symlink it to one of the rc#.d directories, I think that is it. I haven't used ubuntu in a while, there init is so much more difficult than it needs to be
[03:07] <bruenig> their*
[03:07] <mroc> Pale_folklore:  if you download it, you'll have a .iso file, which you'll then make a cd out of.  If you order it....you'll get the same thing after waiting a long time for it to arrive.
[03:07] <Jordan_U> Pale_folklore, You will burn the downloaded iso to a CD anyways
[03:07] <Consty> brk3: Thanks!
[03:07] <brk3> Consty: np
[03:07] <Semper> anyone know how to fix the beryl install thing it keeps giving me Depends: beryl-core but it is not installable
[03:07] <Pale_folklore> Jordan_U: nop, cable, so, since I'm so new, I'll still be able to use *shudder* windows until I get up on the learning curve with ubuntu, right?
[03:08] <dromer> bruenig: ah ok, but I only need to start mphscribble (no extra parameters or w/e), so I guess using /etc/rc.local is best :)
[03:08] <msdtux> joerlend, ok then check the UUID by : blkid /dev/sda1
[03:08] <bruenig> dromer, yeah
[03:08] <dromer> bruenig: thnx :)
[03:08] <Jordan_U> Pale_folklore, Yup, you can even run it from the CD without touching your hard drive at all!
[03:08] <brk3> Semper: u installing it from synaptic?
[03:08] <Semper> ?
[03:08] <Semper> no
[03:08] <Pale_folklore> i c
[03:08] <Semper> xgl ubuntu
[03:08] <joerlend> msdtux, yes, that tells me it's an ntfs partition..
[03:08] <Miso> how do i give an installer write permission to install a game?
[03:09] <brk3> Semper: how are you trying to install it then
[03:09] <bruenig> Miso, use sudo
[03:09] <Jordan_U> Pale_folklore, It's much slower but other than that the CD contains a full running installation
[03:09] <Semper> terminal
[03:09] <Semper> sudo apt-get install beryl beryl-manager emerald-themes
[03:09] <Semper> with that command
[03:09] <msdtux> joerlend, does it tells you the UUID ?
[03:09] <brk3> Semper: hm that should work..
[03:09] <Semper> it doesnt
[03:09] <brk3> Semper: error?
[03:09] <joerlend> msdtux, yes.. ?
[03:09] <Pale_folklore> so what is the best way to learn the terminology and commands?
[03:09] <crdlb> Semper, having issues?
[03:10] <Semper> depends: beryl-core  but it is not installable
[03:10] <msdtux> joerlend, then just write it to fstab
[03:10] <joerlend> msdtux, well, actually, no. :)
[03:10] <Semper> and others
[03:10] <brk3> Pale_folklore: google for a guide to linux basics
[03:10] <Jordan_U> !terminal | Pale_folklore

[03:10] <hocmin> I'm trying to run a quake3 based game and keep getting the error "Sys_Error: GLimp_Init() - could not load OpenGL subsystem".  What am I doing wrong?
[03:10] <Jordan_U> Pale_folklore, But you don't need to use the Terminal to use Ubuntu
[03:10] <crdlb> Semper, well I just recently wrote that BerylOnXgl guide
[03:10] <crdlb> maybe there's something I should clarify
[03:10] <Semper> u wrote it?
[03:11] <Semper> wow
[03:11] <msdtux> joerlend, if you use /dev/sda1 inside fstab, sometime it changes from sda to hda for example
[03:11] <d0lph1nK1ng> how do i create a script that inputs a Y after launching a script at startup
[03:11] <msdtux> joerlend, it happend to me :)
[03:11] <Semper> any idea on what to do with my problem to install beryl?
[03:11] <msdtux> joerlend, ubuntu now use UUID in their fstab (cmiiw)
[03:11] <brk3> Semper: could u paste the error your getting?
[03:11] <crdlb> Semper, this channel is too fast for me :P  #ubuntu-effects or #beryl would be better
[03:11] <jrib> Semper: pastebin the complete error and your /etc/apt/sources.list
[03:12] <joerlend> msdtux, does this have anything to do with write-support for ntfs?
[03:12] <msdtux> joerlend, I guess not.
[03:13] <msdtux> joerlend, if you still want to use /dev/sda1, then write : /dev/sda1 /media/sda1 ntfs-3g default 0 0
[03:13] <msdtux> joerlend, into the fstab
[03:13] <mroc> looking for help with non-functioning USB 1.1 ports  (  dmesg | grep usb   gives "device descriptor read  error" line and "device not accepting address" line.  these appear without anything plugged in.     any help?

[03:14] <jrib> Semper: use pastebin
[03:14] <Jordan_U> msdtux, You know that ntfs-config automatically adds detected partitions to the fstab ?
[03:14] <tbuss> amarok displays libvisual not installed when trying to access visualization, will sudo apt-get install libvisual-0.4-plugins correct this

[03:15] <Jordan_U> Pale_folklore, Yes, and the terminal is awesome in general :)
[03:15] <Semper> ah ok ty
[03:15] <Pale_folklore> Jordan_U: then that is what I would prefer, if I can get over the learning curve

[03:16] <whonicca> can someone help me out with nautilus, ive tried purging it and reinstalling since nothing ive tried fixes the problem
[03:16] <whonicca> still a no go
[03:16] <msdtux> jordan_u, is it as simple as ntfs-config ?
[03:16] <whonicca> everything was working fine a couple minutes ago
[03:16] <joerlend> msdtux, I just need to backup a partition.
[03:16] <msdtux> then I have new knowledge today... :)
[03:16] <brk3> whonicca: how is everything looking ugly.. nautilus is just the file manager if we're on the same level..?
[03:16] <tbuss> how to I install the plugins needed for visualizations in amarok
[03:17] <whonicca> brk3, everything is fine, just nautilus the file manager is acting up
[03:17] <brk3> tbuss: search for amarok-libvisual (or something similar)in synaptic
[03:17] <Jordan_U> msdtux, It is a graphical tool to turn NTFS rw on and off, you can gksu ntfs-config or go to Applications ->System Tools -> NTFS config
[03:17] <whonicca> i go to open any folder and it just stays loading it and crashes
[03:17] <cweagans> how can i check my kernel version from the command line
[03:17] <crimsun> cweagans: uname -r
[03:17] <jrib> cweagans: uname -r
[03:17] <tbuss> brk3: will this do in apt libvisual-0.4-plugins
[03:17] <cweagans> thx
[03:17] <msdtux> joerlend, try what Jordan_U suggest, use : ntfs-config to turn NTFS rw on or off
[03:18] <brk3> tbuss: ya rekon so :)

[03:19] <brk3> tbuss: ah dont worry its not too easy to mess up, just synaptic and you cant go wrong(system->admin->synaptic..)
[03:20] <brk3> tbuss:  search for 'amarok' and you should see the libvisual or something similar it will install everything you need

[03:24] <_seanc_> Hey guys, I'm having some problems with GRUB (I think)
[03:25] <tonkar> hi there, i've a little big problem -_-. I was browsing on firefox when i've lost connection, i can't even ping my modem or my wifi lan, try to reboot ubuntu but it was the same any idea of what happened?
[03:25] <SpectralDesign> ahh, okay.. I didn't see that hidden there -- it doesn't have what I'm looking for though.... I did a remove of the 2.6.15.xx headers, etc. and saw as it was finishing a warning message in the "details" but the log only says what it did, not what would have been output to the terminal if I'd used apt-get or dpkg... :(
[03:25] <_seanc_> I need to format my old dual boot machine to just run windows XP, but when I put in the CD, GRUB loads up instead of the XP CD, anyone I can fix this?
[03:26] <mroc> USB 1.1 ports are giving me trouble - dmesg | grep usb   gives     "device not accepting address" errors.   please help?
[03:26] <gyaresu> Speaking of GRUB... My XP hangs on "Starting up ..." and doesn't go any further. Single HDD /dev/sda dual boot. Ubuntu loads fine but XP won't even after a fixmbr and reinstall.
[03:26] <Watchman_> someoen could help me to setup the pppoe to use internet on the ubuntu studio?
[03:26] <Dexadia> seanc, did you try messing with your bios settings to have it read from CD before HD? or do you have a boot manager key or something?
[03:27] <_seanc_> Dexadia: I can't get the setup to set the CD as a primary boot, its only listed as secondary
[03:27] <sldkfj> A toss-up question for 20 points:    Let's say ya got the Nautilus File Browser opened and you'd like to change the background of that left panel.  How does someone do it?

[03:28] <_seanc_> Dexadia: Is there a way at GRUB to use c and force it to activate the .exe on the CD?
[03:28] <tbuss> brk3: search synaptic and these are installed: amarok amarok-xine libvisual-0.4-0 libvisual-0.4-plugins. When clicking on Visualizations in Amarok it still says 'libvisual not installed, libvisual-plugins not installed'
[03:28] <thelo> i need help it's URGENT
[03:28] <jccf> i have problem with my ibook i use ubuntu and i can't do my airpot extreme work, somedoby know about this?
[03:28] <brk3> tbuss: one sec il see which ones i have installed to make it work
[03:28] <NotWired> any way to resize an ext3 partition? parted doesn't seem to support it
[03:28] <tbuss> k
[03:29] <gyaresu> _seanc_: You should be able to change the boot order in the bios. Every bios can do that.
[03:29] <thelo> BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#0
[03:29] <thelo> HELP!
[03:29] <sldkfj> "10 seconds...."
[03:29] <Dexadia> seanc, not sure - but you should be able to do it in bios
[03:29] <_seanc_> let me run back to the machine and check
[03:29] <Colossus> NotWired: the way that I found most effective was changing it to ext2, resizing it, and then changing it to ext3 again. I think I used tune2fs.
[03:30] <NotWired> Colossus: thanks, never thought of that!
[03:30] <Colossus> NotWired: but what do you mean by "doesn't seem to"? Like, does parted say "I can't do that"? Or does it go "OMIGOD EXPERIMENTAL FEATURE TREAD LIGHTLY AND DON'T SUE US!"?
[03:30] <Nubbie> _seanc_: some computers (10 years old +) can't boot from cds, and they might not even have USB. if your computer isn't that old, you should be able to do what Dexadoa said.
[03:30] <NotWired> Colossus: when i load up qtparted the ext3 partitions have the resize grayed out
[03:30] <bob832> hey folks, i am wanting to setup a LAMP server but before i start; a couple months ago i remember running across a website that said it was the new LAMP, as it was renamed due to some confusion. anyone know what i am talking about?  its driving me nuts! or i am really nuts?!
[03:31] <Nubbie> NotWired: you can't do anything to a mounted partition.
[03:31] <_seanc_> Nubbie: mine is only about 4 years old.
[03:31] <mroc> can anyone help with USB port troubles?    "device not accepting address" errors
[03:31] <_seanc_> I'm in the setup, the boot priority to set to CD, Floppy, HD
[03:31] <Nubbie> Notwired: if you need to change your partitions, its probably easiest to do it from a livecd.
[03:31] <cerealkiller219> bob832: Ubuntu server edition is a LAMP server
[03:31] <sldkfj> boo-boop   Time's up.  I guess you can't.    (Long 10 seconds, huh.)
[03:31] <Nubbie> mroc: where do you see this error, and what are you doing when it occurs?
[03:31] <brk3> NotWired: ubuntu live cd->gnome parted
[03:31] <NotWired> Nubbie: i have tried the liveCD but the ext3 partitions are still greyed out
[03:31] <_seanc_> I know the XP CD works, because I can double click it, or even just right click (in windows) and click "Auto-play" and it goes
[03:31] <Jordan_U> bob832, LAMP is not an application, it is a set of applications Linux Apache MySQL PHP
[03:32] <Nubbie> NotWired: remember the live cd mounts them automatically, you still need to unmount them.
[03:32] <gyaresu> bob832: Linux Apache MySQL and PHP/Python/Perl is just a combination of progs not an overarching name for a distro or anything.
[03:32] <mroc> Nubbie:    dmesg | grep usb     and nothing - it shows when nothing is plugged in
[03:32] <NotWired> Nubbie: d'oh!! i did not know that... thank you
[03:32] <NotWired> Nubbie: I will give that a whirl
[03:32] <Nubbie> NotWired: but on a live cd, unmounting them isn't a problem because the program isn't running off of the drive you're unmounting.
[03:32] <_seanc_> Dexadia: The CD is running, but GRUB is still coming up
[03:33] <_seanc_> how can I format the entire drive from command line?
[03:33] <gyaresu> _seanc_: Have you booted off the cd before on that machine (to install it originally or anything)?
[03:33] <_seanc_> yeah
[03:33] <brk3> tbuss: try installing xmms
[03:33] <bob832> oh....i must be confusing it with ubuntu server....thanks for the clear up
[03:33] <gyaresu> _seanc_: Laptop or desktop?
[03:33] <_seanc_> desktop
[03:33] <tbuss> brk3: synaptic or apt or does it matter
[03:34] <silent_> doesnt matter
[03:34] <gyaresu> _seanc_: did you find the bios option for boot order?
[03:34] <brk3> doesnt really matter sure-> sudo apt-get install xmms
[03:34] <_seanc_> gyaresu: yup, and it's set to CD, floppy, HD
[03:34] <gyaresu> "Starting up ..."  Hangs... Anyone? anyone?
[03:34] <_seanc_> and the CD starts, but GRUB loads up too
[03:34] <silent_> gyaresu, insert Windows CD and reboot
[03:34] <gyaresu> _seanc_: Old crappy ROM drive might not be reading the boot sector of the disk?
[03:35] <gyaresu> silent_: Repair re-install? Did that.
[03:35] <Jordan_U> _seanc_, Are you sure it's GRUB or is it the CD's boot menu which looks very similar?
[03:35] <_seanc_> I guess thats a possibility
[03:35] <brk3> tbuss: im sure you know you have to restart amarok to have any chance of them working?
[03:35] <AaronCN> what's the command of generating FluxBox menu?
[03:35] <Nubbie> _seanc_: check MD5 sum of your disc.
[03:35] <_seanc_> Jordan_U: Definitely GRUB
[03:35] <silent_> gyaresu, I meant Windows... as in Microsoft Windows
[03:36] <silent_> gyaresu, have you installed with the alternate cd?
[03:36] <gyaresu> silent_: Grub hands off to the Windows partition. Won't go past "Starting up ..." No luck from web or forums. Here as last resort.
[03:36] <silent_> did you run cd checks?
[03:36] <gyaresu> silent_: Yes. I did.
[03:36] <tbuss> brk3: it worked, but I think your going to kill me....
[03:37] <brk3> tbuss: lol, why
[03:37] <gyaresu> silent_: Got ubuntu lovely and smooth. XP did load. Now suddenly it won't.
[03:37] <silent_> gyaresu, the Starting up... is Ubuntu starting
[03:37] <mroc> Nubbie:  in case you missed my reply on the USB thing -   error is from dmesg | grep usb   and it happens even with nothing plugged in.  They're USB 1.1 ports.
[03:37] <silent_> from that point it should go into a load screen
[03:37] <tbuss> brk3: after closing the app it just min to the system tray, I didn't hit Quit from the menu
[03:38] <gyaresu> silent_: Yep. Ubuntu no problem. XP on first partition with boot flag on and tried changing the "root" to "rootnoverify" etc.
[03:38] <silent_> try hitting Alt+F1/2/3/4 to open a new shell... make sure your video driver is on vesa.
[03:38] <brk3> tbuss: ah, so that was all it was. so working good now?
[03:38] <silent_> ohhh... you cant boot windows
[03:38] <tbuss> brk3: yeah, like you said, it needed a restart not a re opening :)
[03:38] <gyaresu> silent_: silent_ Yes.
[03:39] <brk3> tbuss: hehe ok
[03:39] <silent_> did you try reinstalling windows?
[03:39] <tbuss> brk3: thanks again, and now I have xmms to play with
[03:39] <gyaresu> silent_:  :) yes. and fixmbr. no joy.
[03:39] <silent_> tbuss, try rhythmbox, I like it more than xmms
[03:39] <brk3> tbuss: no prob, cant see why you'd want xmms when u have amarok though!
[03:39] <gyaresu> silent_: I'll blame windows and go away and poke it some more.
[03:40] <silent_> gyaresu, that's pretty fuxed
[03:40] <bullgard4> My computer MD97600 does not suspend from disk. The dial does not stop spinning. I cannot find an error message in dmesg. Xorg.0.log.old says: "[II]  I810 (0): Broken BIOSes cause the system to hang here. If you encounter this problem please add Option "Display Info" "FALSE" to the Device section of your XF86Config file" though. I do not find an XF86Config file.
[03:40] <Broc223> whats the file name for startup for x? like rc.local
[03:40] <emach> hi all. i just installed ubuntu on an old windows box, and was wondering if there are any usb wifi adapters that will work "plug and play"?
[03:40] <gyaresu> silent_: Dual boot for client. V annoying.
[03:40] <_seanc_> Nubbie: I got it, its finally loading the CD after I pick windows XP
[03:40] <emach> about to buy one on ebay
[03:40] <tbuss> brk3: I used winamp when I was a windows user, just interested in seeing how similar they are
[03:40] <Jordan_U> gyaresu, #windows might help more, but if you ran fixmbr and you still have GRUB then you "fixed" the wrong drive
[03:40] <brk3> emach: my friend got a really cheap one off ebay can find you the name if you like
[03:40] <emach> brk3 what's the name?
[03:40] <brk3> tbuss: ya i used to use it too
[03:41] <brk3> emach: think its bluenext one sec will try find the ebay page
[03:41] <tbuss> brk3: but yeah, I like what I see so far from Amarok, I really like the lyrics script
[03:41] <silent_> gyaresu, have you tried repartitioning?
[03:41] <emach> brk3 great thanks
[03:41] <brk3> emach: it works perfectly with feisty which im sure is what ur after :)
[03:41] <gyaresu> Jordan_U: Nah. I put grub back. I reckon windows is to blame. Seems to be a problem that's remained unresolved though. From the searches I've done. Never been to #windows, don't want to start.
[03:41] <Nubbie> _seanc_: thats weird.
[03:41] <emach> yes i'm running feisty
[03:41] <Elfboy> why cant i do emerige
[03:42] <Elfboy> i cant get the programs i want
[03:42] <Nubbie> Elfboy: because this is not gentoo.
[03:42] <VoX> Elfboy: uh.. this is #ubuntu, not #gentoo
[03:42] <_seanc_> Nubbie: indeed
[03:42] <Nubbie> !apt > Elfboy
[03:42] <Jordan_U> Elfboy, Emerge? This is #ubuntu :)
[03:42] <Elfboy> lol
[03:42] <mroc> Nubbie:    are you able to help with my USB troubles?
[03:42] <VoX> gentoo is made from fail and lose.
[03:42] <Nubbie> Elfboy: no problem guy, but "there's your problem" LOL
[03:42] <Elfboy> ok i need limewire
[03:43] <lxuser> using 7.04, my network applet dont show information about the conexion and only display manual configuration
[03:43] <Jordan_U> Elfboy, I recommend GTK-gnutella or frostwire
[03:43] <Elfboy> ok
[03:43] <Nubbie> Elfboy: please make an attempt to search for the solutions to your problems before coming here, but Jordan_U speaks truth.
[03:43] <gyaresu> silent_: No. Haven't tried repartitioning. Do you mean from scratch before attempting to install anything?
[03:44] <silent_> I might start into development of linux applications this summer if I have time... add some features I'd like to see
[03:44] <silent_> gyaresu, yes, completely wipe the drive, install windows on a partition, then linux/swap on a couple others after
[03:44] <Broc223> whats the file name for startup script for x?
[03:44] <silent_> Broc223, use the startx command
[03:44] <Elfboy> is there away to look for program and not use that add and remove thing
[03:45] <Jordan_U> Broc223, sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[03:45] <gyaresu> silent_: ... might have to. Don't really have time. Pissing me off now.
[03:45] <jrib> Elfboy: system > administration > synaptic
[03:45] <silent_> Elfboy, synaptic
[03:45] <Solet> hey fresh install of ubuntu server 6.06 on a p2 300mhz with 256meg of ram, did the reboot after install where it's supposed to boot and finish setting up and installing shites, but it wont boot
[03:45] <Broc223> no no, i meant there is a file... which is ran when X starts
[03:45] <gyaresu> silent_: S'cuse language.
[03:45] <Broc223> i forgot what the file name is
[03:45] <silent_> gyaresu, don't worry, I'm used to worse :P
[03:46] <Jordan_U> Solet, What happens when you try to boot
[03:46] <ZyOS> hey anyone know how to disable dual view ?
[03:46] <silent_> gyaresu, it sounds like the partitions have been messed up for some reason, I have no idea why, but that's just my 2c
[03:46] <brk3> emach: hm sorry cant seem to find it maybe they're sold out it was made by 'bluenext' anyway they seem to be supported quite well
[03:46] <VoX> ZyOS: define 'dual view'
[03:46] <emach> brk3 ok thanks i will try a search
[03:46] <Solet> it runs through grub and gets to "uncompressing linux" and then starts back at post
[03:46] <ZyOS> this is my first time using ubuntu
[03:47] <silent_> ZyOS, you will like it
[03:47] <gyaresu> silent_: Yeah. I'm going to have a look at that now. Good advice.
[03:47] <mroc> i thought someone was helping me, but they seem to have disappeared........USB port trouble:   device not accepting address error.  please help?
[03:47] <emach> <--- hi all. i just installed ubuntu on an old windows box, and was wondering if there are any usb wifi adapters that will work "plug and play"?
[03:48] <silent_> gyaresu, who know when Windows is involved though.... it can be very picky ;P
[03:48] <Jordan_U> emach, There are, but PCI cards are generally much better supported
[03:48] <gyaresu> silent_: Ever used ntfsfix?
[03:48] <silent_> gyaresu, no, I usually just reinstall/give up on windows if it screws up
[03:48] <silent_> though, I need to install Visa soon... ugh
[03:48] <silent_> Vista*
[03:48] <gyaresu> silent_: Yes. It's my bread and butter but I'm the "Linux Guy" in town.
[03:48] <gyaresu> silent_: I'll report back ;)
[03:49] <ZyOS> ar...Iim using 2 monitors and I wanted to disable one of them
[03:49] <silent_> gyaresu, k
[03:49] <emach> jordan_u: cool that's fine with me too. so any belkin or linsys you think would be good?
[03:49] <Solet> Jordan_U: any ideas?
[03:49] <brk3> emach: found it: http://cgi.ebay.ie/Wi-Fi-USB-ADAPTER-WIRELESS-LAN-WiFi-DONGLE-ADAPTOR-UK_W0QQitemZ160121984481QQihZ006QQcategoryZ45001QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
[03:49] <ZyOS> can u guild me where can I do that VOX ?
[03:49] <eX|Hoser> Hey guys, I just did a fresh install of Ubuntu Alt.  and I'm wanting to install Beryl.  Would anyone be willing to show me the best possible website for this?  BTW, my video card is X850XT.  Thanks.
[03:49] <ZyOS> guide*
[03:49] <gyaresu> silent_: Vista - "Too much RAM is never enough"
[03:49] <silent_> ZyOS, xorg.conf
[03:49] <emach> grk3 great!
[03:50] <ZyOS> thx silent but where can I fint that file ?
[03:50] <silent_> gyaresu, I built this machine primarily so I wouldn't have to worry about hardware constraints... I hate wasting time waiting for things to load. I don't exactly cheap out when it comes to computers :P
[03:50] <ZyOS> find*
[03:50] <Heywood> Is there a separate channel for Ubuntu Studio?
[03:50] <Jordan_U> emach, Anything with an intel chipset will work out of the box, there are others also: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/WirelessCardsSupported
[03:51] <silent_> gyaresu, C2D E6300 @2.8Ghz, 2GB OCZ Platinum PC-6400, 8800GTS 630/1800MHz, on a 680i SLI
[03:51] <gyaresu> silent_: Same reason I forward X applications from my slave servers to my main box, no load :)
[03:51] <emach> Jordan_U: this is just what i was looking for thanks
[03:51] <Solet> anyone know why a fresh install would get to "Uncompressing Linux..." then reboot back to POST?
[03:52] <cables> Solet, the CD may be bad
[03:52] <silent_> gyaresu, how do you do that? forward processing?
[03:52] <mroc> USB port problems:   device not accepting address        please help?
[03:52] <cables> Solet, wait a sec, already installed, or the CD? If it's the former, I have no idea.
[03:53] <ZyOS> Can anyone guide me to the display properties on Ubuntu ?
[03:53] <cables> ZyOS, what kind of display properties?
[03:53] <Solet> i installed it, and it got to the end of the install where you remove the disc it reboots and then you're supposed to finish setting up the system... it kicked out the disc and did it's reboot, and didnt boot
[03:53] <deus> how can i uninstall a source program, or make sure an aptitude install program takes precedence
[03:53] <sldkfj> display properties?
[03:53] <Broc223> .xinitrc thats what i was lookin for
[03:53] <gyaresu> silent_: edit your kdm.conf gdm.conf to allow TCP connections (port 6000) then from the headless server 'export DISPLAY=sdf:0'
[03:54] <TakeOut{u}> dues, apt-get source program
[03:54] <DavidCraft2> how do i figure out my CPU temp
[03:54] <sldkfj> ZyOS, you use nvidia?
[03:54] <DavidCraft2> ?
[03:54] <ZyOS> ATI X600
[03:54] <deus> TakeOut{u}: this is a locally install source program
[03:54] <silent_> gyaresu, so does that make one machine act as a terminal and the server act as a processor-server?
[03:54] <TakeOut{u}> you'd have to look up the make commands, i think you can use make clean or something similar, but i don't know enough about compiling to be sure
[03:55] <gyaresu> silent_: 'xhost +' or 'xhost 192.168.1.5' to allow connections to your main machines X session. Bam! natively run front ends for servers doing all the re-encoding/ripping/compiling/ etc.
[03:55] <sldkfj> ZyOS, hmm, I don't know ati,  nvidia-settings in a menu works for me though;  go buy an nvidia card
[03:55] <sldkfj> laugh
[03:55] <ZyOS> now I got a clone view on both monitor
[03:55] <ZyOS> -__-'
[03:55] <jccf> i have problem with my ibook i use ubuntu and i can't do my airpot extreme work, somedoby know about this?
[03:56] <mroc> anybody?   USB port troubles:  "device not accepting address"  error
[03:56] <gyaresu> silent_: I run movies from my main machine (plugged into stereo) and forward the visuals to a laptop (other side of room plugged into data projector).
[03:56] <silent_> gyaresu, gui on both or one cli?
[03:57] <d1gital> Anyone have a suggestion as to video editing software?
[03:57] <gyaresu> silent_: urxvt/screen/mplayer :) on fluxbox of course == lie on couch with bluetooth keyboard.
[03:57] <vemerez> hi all
[03:57] <Pelo> d1gital, avidemux
[03:58] <silent_> gyaresu, wow... you must have spent a lot of time setting all this up :P sounds pretty sweet though
[03:58] <cables> I apt-get source-d something, where are the files?
[03:58] <d1gital> Pelo: thx
[03:58] <TakeOut{u}> should be in the directory you were working in cables
[03:58] <cables> TakeOut{u}, ok, thanks
[03:58] <source_> anyone know how to increase fps for gaming?
[03:59] <silent_> source_ get a better computer
[03:59] <vemerez> lol
[03:59] <gyaresu> silent_: Not a lot of time. Just little tricks learnt along the way. Best way to fly though.
[03:59] <rob_p> mroc: http://www.linux-usb.org/FAQ.html#ts6
[03:59] <source_> @silent, lol
[03:59] <source_> silent, are you willing to pay for it?
[03:59] <Pelo> silent_, you can do better, I'm very disapointed in you
[03:59] <mroc> rob_p:   thanks, i'll take a look.  (but i think i've seen it already)
[04:00] <silent_> gyaresu, I'm not sure that it would be that beneficial to me since I'm running a dual-core system, it can handle anything I throw at it, but damn, that would be really sweet for watching movies from this machine across the house
[04:00] <Paddy_EIRE> would it be considered normal for beryl - xgl to crash firefox when watching streaming video
[04:00] <DavidCraft2> how do i figure out my CPU temperature?
[04:00] <Paddy_EIRE> I know its unstable
[04:00] <Pelo> Paddy_EIRE, maybe you should ask in #beryl
[04:00] <Paddy_EIRE> yeah
[04:00] <silent_> Pelo, heh, seemed like a reasonable solution to me ^_^
[04:00] <Pelo> DavidCraft2,  in this link there are instrucitons for setting up sensors   http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[04:00] <HalonChilled> what are the contrib and non-free archives that i should add to my source.list?
[04:01] <rob_p> mroc: They list several possibilities.  Perhaps one or more will assist you in troubleshooting.  Good luck.
[04:01] <silent_> DavidCraft, lm-sensors
[04:01] <gyaresu> silent_: Especially if your movie folder it 100's of Gig. You don't need to transfer it first.
[04:01] <Paddy_EIRE> can you find out your cpu temp in a terminal silent_ i have lm-sensors installed
[04:01] <silent_> I cant personally, but there must be a way
[04:01] <silent_> read the man
[04:01] <vemerez> do any of you guys enjoy beryl?
[04:01] <Pelo> Paddy_EIRE,  type sensors
[04:02] <Paddy_EIRE> k
[04:02] <silent_> (my lm-sensors cant detect my temps, new hardware)
[04:02] <mroc> rob_p:  i'll check out the noapic boot.   they're usb 1.1, so the high speed stuff probably doesn't apply
[04:02] <Pelo> vemerez, no I got tired of it after 15 minutes
[04:02] <vemerez> yeah I do not see all the hype around it
[04:02] <DavidCraft2> ls-sensors?
[04:02] <DavidCraft2> lm*
[04:02] <dkulchenko> is it possible to burn a dvd while runnning under a live cd?
[04:02] <Paddy_EIRE> Pelo, would +54 be normal
[04:02] <silent_> gyaresu, I have a similar system, though, I guess opposite. I have an SMB fileserver I can access and play movies off of
[04:03] <Pelo> silent_, there is another packages that does that  ic2 I think  , look here  http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[04:03] <silent_> Pelo, I'll take a look at it, thanks
[04:03] <rob_p> mroc: Could be buggy bios, problems with interrupts, etc.
[04:03] <Pelo> Paddy_EIRE, depends on what you are running,   under 60C is usualy ok
[04:03] <Pelo> silent_,  look in the index for sensors
[04:03] <gyaresu> silent_: Yeah. (btw nfs is more transparent.)
[04:04] <dkulchenko> is it possible to burn a dvd while runnning under a live cd?
[04:04] <khin> hi, i accidentally deleted something with the GUI interface in ubuntu, is there any way to get it back
[04:04] <silent_> dkulchenko, if you have 2 drives
[04:04] <mroc> rob_p:    they used to work (no bios update since)   what should i be looking for with interrupts?
[04:04] <gh0zt> hello
[04:04] <dtrump> Hi
[04:04] <Pelo> Paddy_EIRE, I'm currently running at 44 but I only have this chat and a movie goings so ...
[04:04] <dkulchenko> silent_: what if i load the burning program in memory
[04:04] <gh0zt> no
[04:04] <dtrump> confidential
[04:04] <silent_> dkulchenko, do you have 4GB of ram?
[04:04] <dkulchenko> silent_: 1GB
[04:05] <makkk> can someone help me connect to a WPA network using ipw2200 chipset on Feisty? Its not 'just working'
[04:05] <silent_> dkulchenko, then I'm willing to bet it wont work
[04:05] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know when the .17 kernel will be released as I had to fall back to .15 as the .16 messed most my system
[04:05] <khin> is there any way to set up my system so i have the equivalent of a trash
[04:05] <EvilDeshi> anyone around with any experience in fixing apt-get errors?
[04:05] <Pelo> makkk, it,s been mentionned frequently,  if noone here can help check in the forums there is probably something
[04:05] <khin> when i delete stuff
[04:05] <dkulchenko> silent_: well i can load Nero into memory, and then burn. after it's done, i can quiclkly put it back in
[04:06] <Pelo> khin,  there is a trash , it is in /home/user/.Trash
[04:06] <silent_> dkulchenko, you can try, but what if the os tries to access files on the CD?
[04:06] <dinkle> hey how do i downgrade libgpod?
[04:06] <makkk> Pelo: thanks. actually, I think I just figured it out. I asked right before I tried something different.
[04:06] <silent_> yer pretty much pooched
[04:06] <rob_p> mroc: Well, if the USB host controller is not getting interrupts that will cause it too.  You can explore /proc/interrupts to see if the interrupt count for the host controller is changing or not.
[04:07] <dkulchenko> silent_: well, i cna kill almost all the other processes
[04:07] <makkk> does anyone need help getting WPA to work on ipw2200 on feisty? :)
[04:07] <Jordan_U> dkulchenko, What are you trying to do?
[04:07] <Paddy_EIRE> !kernel | Paddy_EIRE
[04:07] <dkulchenko> silent_:i'm pretty experienced with sysadmining
[04:07] <Pelo> dinkle, synaptic has a rightclick properties item that lets you select a previous release to use
[04:07] <silent_> dkulchenko, then try it, can't guarantee it will work though
[04:07] <dkulchenko> Jordan_U: i need to download Fedora while running on a Ubuntu livecd
[04:08] <dkulchenko> Jordan_U:cause ubuntu won't work
[04:08] <Pelo> Paddy_EIRE, therer are no news that I know about .17 but enough ppl have had problems with .16 that I donT, think it's gonna take all that long
[04:08] <dinkle> Pelo, ok thanks will try hopes this solves my problem.
[04:08] <dkulchenko> silnt_: ok, i will
[04:08] <Jordan_U> dkulchenko, In what way won't Ubuntu work and where are you going to save Fedora to?
[04:08] <dinkle> Pelo, well on that note is there a way to figure out which version Amarok was compiled on?
[04:08] <Paddy_EIRE> Pelo, oh, nice one... even though I am using the .15 kernel updates should roll down as normal?
[04:09] <taurusivy> anyone use feisty smoothly with openbox
[04:09] <Pelo> dinkle,  have you tried amarok -v
[04:09] <Pelo> Paddy_EIRE, I would expect so
[04:09] <khin> hmmm... ok, i found it, thanks. is there any way i can get that to come up when i do ls in /home/user?
[04:10] <wysiwyg> hihi
[04:10] <Jordan_U> dkulchenko, Depending on how much RAM you have you could try the toram kernel parameter
[04:10] <sldkfj> wysiwyg, How ya doing?
[04:10] <mroc> rob_p:   thanks for the link (in case i didn't say thanks already).    the noapic boot option didn't work.  The ports are usb 1.1, dmesg refers to it as "full speed"...is this an issue?
[04:10] <wysiwyg> i recieve several "codec 0 is not valid" during boot
[04:10] <Pelo> khin, crtl+H,    but you should have it in your bottom pannel in the default install,  and you can have it on your desktop using   gconf-editor     /apps/nautilus/desktop
[04:10] <mikeo1> how do i force mounting of ntfs
[04:10] <HalonChilled> I am on my 20th or so setup of myth tv following the ubuntu guides and everything works fine except for lirc, be using EE instead of FF?
[04:10] <mikeo1> its giving me the hibernated problem but windows is not installed on the drive
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone here contribute to the LaptopTestingTeam wiki, as I would like to learn how I could put forth my experiences with the Acer 5051
[04:11] <Pelo> mikeo1,  add it to fstab
[04:11] <Xenos767> Hi can someone help me? I just tried installing a package on ubuntu and half way it went to console instead of graphical mode. And now when I boot up I start in console. How do I fix that?
[04:11] <dinkle> pelo, yea i am having issues with amarok syncing music to my ipod. i found online that it said i need to downgrade my libgpod to the version which amarok compiled around.  i think the two are just not coordinating properly.
[04:11] <Jordan_U> mikeo1, How is NTFS giving you hibernation problems?
[04:11] <mikeo1> Failed to mount '/dev/hda1': Operation not permitted
[04:11] <mikeo1> The NTFS partition is hibernated. Please resume Windows and turned it
[04:11] <mikeo1> off properly, so mounting could be done safely.
[04:11] <wysiwyg> sldkfj,  i recieve several "codec 0 is not valid" during boot
[04:11] <mikeo1> windows is not installed on hda1
[04:11] <mneptok> mikeo1: please do not paste text to the channel
[04:11] <Pelo> dinkle, it's not something I've had to do , I can'T help more
[04:11] <Jordan_U> mikeo1, So boot into windows
[04:12] <dinkle> pelo, ok thanks.
[04:12] <Xenos767> Is there something in ubuntu that I can return to a restore point like in windows?
[04:12] <sldkfj> wysiwyg, I don't know about that, sorry
[04:12] <Pelo> mikeo1, check you partition's devtree,  the latest kernel upgrade changed the devtree of the partitons
[04:12] <wysiwyg> the log shows them but when i copypaste this is what its pasted May 29 20:21:02 HQ kernel: [    0.000000]  copy_e820_map() start: 0000000000000000 size: 000000000009fc00 end: 000000000009fc00 type: 1
[04:12] <mneptok> Xenos767: not by default
[04:12] <mneptok> Xenos767: what were you trying to install?
[04:13] <kmurphy> para
[04:13] <Xenos767> mneptok: I was trying to install files that would let me install ubuntu themes, one of the files was "Xfree" and once I started to download it, my computer went to console and it has been there ever sence.
[04:13] <mikeo1> Jordan_U windows isnt installed on the drive
[04:13] <evilxhwnd> hey, does anyone know how to prevent USB from resuming my machine from standby mode? once my machine enters suspend to ram, it resumes right away by a wake even from USB. But, i have not USB devices plugged in and i cannot remove the USB module from the kernel either. any ideas anyone?
[04:13] <Lunar_Lamp> I have a multimonitor setup, but when I run opengl programs (e.g. games) - the same things gets shown on each screen.  That is I get cloned rather than "bigdesktop.  My xorg.conf is here: http://pastebin.ca/524400
[04:13] <mneptok> Xenos767: where did you get these files?
[04:14] <mikeo1> its giving me a windows hibernation error when windows is not installed on the drive
[04:14] <Xenos767> mneptok: I tried to install them over synaptic and it said that once I did, it would remove some other files at the same time.
[04:14] <Jordan_U> mikeo1, Have you tried a chkdisk of it?
[04:14] <mneptok> Xenos767: what packages?
[04:14] <Xenos767> mneptok: some "unessary" files. I dont remember what packages
[04:14] <mikeo1> yeah it gives errors and fails to fix them, but its been that way for like 2 years now
[04:15] <Xenos767> If you type in "X windows" In syaptic I think you will find the files im missing.
[04:15] <sldkfj> Lunar_Lamp, you don't have eyecandy on it do you?
[04:15] <mikeo1> and it used to mount fine
[04:15] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Xfree86 ?
[04:15] <Xenos767> Jordan_U yes, excatly, I was trying to install that, but it went horrably wrong
[04:15] <peepsalot> my font look really screwed up, but I only notice it on the "Open With" dialog.  the letters are multi colored, like maybe subpixel hinting is on, but all backwards
[04:15] <Lunar_Lamp> sldkfj, no, I can't get beryl etc installed and dual monitor as ATI textures don't go wide enough :-(
[04:15] <sldkfj> Lunar_Lamp, such as Compiz or Beryl
[04:15] <mneptok> Xenos767: every Ubuntu desktop installation already has X Windows
[04:15] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, You shouldn't install that, Ubuntu uses X.org and Xfree86 is crap
[04:16] <evilxhwnd>  hey, does anyone know how to prevent USB from resuming my machine from standby mode? once my machine enters suspend to ram, it resumes right away by a wake even from USB. But, i have not USB devices plugged in and i cannot remove the USB module from the kernel either. any ideas anyone?
[04:16] <Pelo> peepsalot, what is your videocard ?
[04:16] <mneptok> Xenos767: a reinstall is probably easiest
[04:16] <Xenos767> Jordan_U ok I wont install it, i just need to figure out how to get my computer back to its normal state.
[04:16] <peepsalot> Pelo, via unichrome pro onboard
[04:16] <peepsalot> it's a POS
[04:16] <Pelo> evilxhwnd, might be in your bios
[04:16] <Xenos767> mneptok: arrg, is that my only option?!
[04:16] <Pelo> peepsalot, errrr.....
[04:17] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, You need to remove whatever you installed, can you go through exactly what you did?
[04:17] <peepsalot> Pelo, you think it might be the drivers?
[04:17] <mneptok> Xenos767: do you know how to remove XFree libs and manually replace them with X.org libs and then link against them?
[04:17] <peepsalot> i think i remember setting subpixel hinting somewhere, but can't find the setting now.  anyone know?
[04:17] <Jordan_U> mneptok, Shouldn't he just be able to remove both then re-install xorg?
[04:17] <Pelo> peepsalot, try menu > system > admin > restricted drivers see if one is available, if not play around with the settings in system > prefs> fonts
[04:18] <mneptok> peepsalot: also check your BIOS and be sure the shared video memory is maxed
[04:18] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: Kinda, I dont have synaptic working so it wll be hard. I dont think I actually installed the XFree files, I think I just accidently un installed some important files that run stuff, because when I run in debug mode it says that "hardware has failed"
[04:18] <Jordan_U> peepsalot, System -> Preferences -> Fonts
[04:18] <Pelo> peepsalot,  in the font dialog box you can play aournd with the subpixel order in the details screen
[04:18] <mneptok> Jordan_U: he doesn't remember what packages
[04:18] <Xenos767> mneptok: is there a log or something that says what I did?
[04:18] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Do you have a LiveCD?
[04:19] <Xenos767> Jordan_U yeah, but of the oldest version of Ubuntu
[04:19] <Jordan_U> mneptok, If he just removed packages ( like he says ) then he can chroot in and install ubuntu-minimal+desktop
[04:19] <Lunar_Lamp> sldkfj, no further ideas?
[04:19] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Doesn't matter what version for this purpose, as long as it's Linux
[04:20] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: ok do you want me to boot up with it now then?
[04:20] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Yes
[04:20] <Xenos767> ok brb
[04:20] <sldkfj> Lunar_Lamp, I'm not a graphics guy,   I just knew of a setting in Beryl and thought it might help.
[04:20] <Lunar_Lamp> ok :-(
[04:20] <Th3Count> Can someone tell me how to make it so my wireless card registers as wlan0 and not eth1?
[04:21] <Lounge> does irc.ubuntu support ssl?
[04:22] <bullgard4> My computer MD97600 does not suspend from disk. The dial does not stop spinning. I cannot find an error message in dmesg. Xorg.0.log.old says: "[II]  I810 (0): Broken BIOSes cause the system to hang here.

[04:24] <Pelo> bullgard4, check here this might be it   /usr/lib/X11/config/xf86.rules
[04:24] <Jordan_U> xenos767, OK, Do you know what device name your ubuntu partition is?
[04:24] <xenos767> Yeah
[04:25] <Jordan_U> xenos767, Ok, mount it
[04:25] <bullgard4> Pelo: I will do as you advised.
[04:25] <DavidCraft2> hey I have a sata HD...  I formatted it (inside ubuntu) in ext3. It worked fine.  I rebooted and now it wont mount it.
[04:25] <Jordan_U> xenos767, I'll assume you will mount it at /chroot
[04:25] <Pelo> DavidCraft2, you need to add it to fstab for it to mount automaticaly
[04:25] <DavidCraft2> how do I mount it... and also how do I get it to auto mount every time?
[04:25] <DavidCraft2> whats the command?
[04:26] <xenos767> Jordan_U Do I have to mount it through terminal because if I try to mount in the computer it doesnt work.
[04:26] <Pelo> DavidCraft2,  sudo gedit /etc/fstab
[04:26] <Jordan_U> xenos767, sudo mkdir /chroot && sudo mount /dev/whatever /chroot
[04:26] <mattva01> does anyone here have an insignia audio player?
[04:27] <khin> hi, what does it mean if a filename has a ~ after it
[04:27] <Pelo> DavidCraft2, use this line as a template   /dev/sda2 /home/jean/Downloads ext3 defaults 0 2
[04:27] <xenos767> Jordan_U: sorry, I know what partition it is but I dont know the name of it. How would I find that out?
[04:27] <scoobydoo28139> Is there any tvcard stuff yet for my ati card?
[04:28] <Jordan_U> xenos767, Look in gparted or run: sudo fdisk -l
[04:28] <Jordan_U> mneptok, This is just temporary to do a one time chroot
[04:28] <Pelo> mneptok, tell him how to then
[04:28] <tekno> Has anyone here used the Saitek X52 in ubuntu?  Running jstest shows mostly good signs, but it doesn't seem to translate to games at all.

[04:30] <mneptok> Pelo: hmm?
[04:30] <Pelo> nj786,  did you try looking up yur problem in the forum ?
[04:30] <nj786> yes, pelo
[04:30] <crimsun> nj786: what's the issue?
[04:30] <xenos767> Jordan_U: E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
[04:30] <Pelo> nj786, try in here  http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[04:30] <nj786> crimsun, i do not have sound
[04:31] <nj786> crimsun, i dono what i did but i messed up my sound
[04:31] <Jordan_U> xenos767, run 'dpkg --configure -a'
[04:31] <nj786> ccrimsun, i was trying to get my computer mic to work and i messed up the settings for it
[04:31] <xenos767> ok its installing
[04:31] <evilxhwnd> FireHazard17: yea, i have read that as well. but, it does work for a split second. my keyboard light turns off and the fan on top of the processor as well as the case fan stop. then the machine wakes up right away. before i was getting a message that USB woke the machine up. i disabled USB from the bios with no luck
[04:32] <crimsun> nj786: has it been audible in Ubuntu 7.04 at all?
[04:32] <xenos767> Jordan_U: so this isnt fixing my OS it is just installing another one?
[04:32] <nj786> crimsun, yes my sound but my mic hasnt been working
[04:32] <Rodel> Does anyone here know where the files for the AisleRiot games are?
[04:32] <nj786> crimsun, now i cannot figure out ho to get my sound back nor fix my mic problem
[04:32] <FireHazard17> evilxhwnd: i only said it becuase the same thing happened to me in edgy and i haven't tried it in feisty
[04:32] <nj786> how*
[04:32] <crimsun> nj786: ok, so please be precise so that I can better assist you.  Do you mean that presently -all- sound is inaudible in addition to your mic not appearing to work?
[04:33] <xenos767> Jordan_U: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^It's done now by the way.
[04:33] <Jordan_U> xenos767, Just so you know, what you are doing is running commands from your installed system ( the chroot command makes the commands run on the installed system and not the LiveCD ) without having to be able to actually boot from the installed partition, Unix is cool like that :)
[04:33] <nj786> crimsun, nothing is working so far right now not even my mic nor my sound system
[04:33] <xenos767> Jordan_U: ok thats what I suspected. Thanks for your help by the way. And terminal is done.
[04:33] <nj786> crimsun, my sound was workin
[04:33] <Jordan_U> xenos767, Ok, now: apt-get install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-desktop
[04:33] <evilxhwnd> FireHazard17: ohhh, well i compiled the latest Kernel 2.6.21.3 with ACPI support. i just don't know why it wakes up right away.
[04:34] <xenos767> Jordan_U I just did that
[04:34] <Rodel> Does anyone here know where the files for the AisleRiot games are?

[04:44] <Julie45> where does apache2 store the error logs on ubuntu (Edgy 6.1)
[04:44] <Jordan_U> lurking, It lets you run commands from another install without having to boot to it, "sudo chroot /mountpoint" If it needs any hardware information you will need to use two other commands also
[04:44] <crimsun> nj786: now, I want you to download & save the following script to your Desktop, and execute it: http://www.linux-sound.info/alsa/scripts/alsa-info.sh
[04:44] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: now when I boot up it goes to console, then flashes a couple of times, then it says that X Server has failed and It asks me if I want to view the debug file or whatever.

[04:45] <Pelo> scoobydoo28139, search where ?
[04:45] <nj786> crimsun, there is a red X on the sound icon in my pannel

[04:45] <scoobydoo28139> pelo: thats what i need to know
[04:45] <nj786> crimsun, does it matter?
[04:45] <Fezzler> How do I fine .dmrc ... find name .dmrc /  ????

[04:45] <nj786> ok
[04:46] <Tok> I crashed X when I installed nvidia drivers. Says its unable to load the module I've tried uninstalling the drivers but it keeps compaining about dependency issues and that its not fully installed/
[04:46] <nj786> crimsun, it said should i run this script?
[04:46] <Xenos767> cables: Yes, I think so. It is failed to open.
[04:46] <nj786> y or no
[04:46] <evilxhwnd> Hello, does anyone know why my machine resumes from suspend to ram as soon as it enters it?
[04:46] <Pelo> scoobydoo28139, I think we're a bit confused,   either the restricted driver menu item in ubuntu will have something that works or it won'T , if it doesn'T    look up your hardware in the forum
[04:46] <cables> Xenos767, okay. Hit Ctrl-alt-f1 to get to a terminal
[04:46] <crimsun> nj786: you should answer "yes" or 'y'
[04:46] <Xenos767> cables: I was getting help from Jordan_U earlyer. I am on a live CD btew
[04:46] <lurking> thanks Jordan_U
[04:46] <cables> Xenos767, wait, do you have an installed system?
[04:47] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Yes
[04:47] <nj786> crimsun y
[04:47] <nj786> "y"
[04:47] <crimsun> nj786: yes, choose "yes" or 'y'
[04:47] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, I guess it's still not working?
[04:47] <nj786> crimsun, nothing is happening my cursor is just blinkin
[04:47] <nj786> crimsun never mind
[04:47] <crimsun> nj786: be patient, it takes a while sometimes
[04:47] <Tok> The file it wants to install is already there but the system will not allow it to overwrite the file
[04:47] <nj786> crimsun, o kdone
[04:47] <crimsun> nj786: now, what is the url it gave you?
[04:47] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: yes
[04:48] <Fezzler> Trying to fix: "User $HOME/.dmrc file being ingnored.  File should be owned by user and have 644.  $HOME must be owned by user and not writable by other."
[04:48] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: now when I boot up it goes to console, then flashes a couple of times, then it says that X Server has failed and It asks me if I want to view the debug file or whatever.

[04:48] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Ok, that is better than before at least
[04:48] <post-pot> cables thanks
[04:49] <Jordan_U> post-pot, No.
[04:49] <Xenos767> cables: you told me to press ctrl+alt+f1 and terminal filled up the screen completely.
[04:49] <crimsun> nj786: ok
[04:49] <post-pot> Jordan_U huh
[04:49] <Fezzler> I tried Ctrl-Alt-F1 at login screen and ran "sudo chown user:user $HOME/.dmrc && chmod 644 $HOME/.dmrc" and got "not file found."
[04:49] <cables> Xenos767, I thought you were in an installed copy. My bad.
[04:49] <Jordan_U> post-pot, Try System -> Administration -> Restricted driver manager first
[04:49] <Mattva01> Does anyone here have any experience with an insignia media player?
[04:49] <cables> Xenos767, it's probably easier to fix your problem NOT in a LiveCD
[04:49] <crimsun> nj786: now, copy and paste the following command into a Terminal, and tell me if you can hear the music: aplay /usr/share/sounds/*up.wav
[04:49] <post-pot> Jordan_U trust me I've done 3 hours worth
[04:49] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: yeah its much better, can you tell me how to fix it then, I could maybe just re-install all the files for X
[04:50] <nj786> crimsun, yesi  can
[04:50] <post-pot> Jordan_U nvidia-glx nvidia-glx-new nvidia-glx-legacy doesnt work - and I have a GeForce 4
[04:50] <Jordan_U> post-pot, Ok, just making sure it wasn't a first resort :)
[04:50] <Xenos767> cables: well my installation is corrupt at the moment so it would be hard to fix not on a live CD :P
[04:50] <post-pot> last resort
[04:50] <crimsun> nj786: good, so at least playing music ("playback") is working
[04:50] <cables> Xenos767, do you get an X error on boot?
[04:50] <cronik> hello everyone?
[04:50] <cables> Xenos767, something about an X server?
[04:50] <crimsun> nj786: now, let's get recording ("capture") working
[04:50] <cronik> how is everyone doing?
[04:50] <cry0x> super, thanks for asking
[04:50] <Xenos767> cables: yes, because I unstalled some files accidently.
[04:50] <cables> cronik, this is a support channel. For chatting, use #ubuntu-offtopic
[04:50] <nj786> crimsun, what do i do?
[04:50] <cronik> guys i have a lil question
[04:51] <cry0x> just ask :)
[04:51] <cables> Xenos767, was that related to an update?
[04:51] <scoobydoo28139> pelo: thanks but i am about to give up.I have been to all these places, and found nothing for an ati tv card. I am a novice, and need a little help with these kinds of things.
[04:51] <cables> Xenos767, also, what did you remove? Xorg.conf?
[04:51] <crimsun> nj786: first, tell me if you want to record from line-in or from the microphone jack
[04:51] <Fezzler> chown: cannot access `$/HOME/.dmrc': No such file or directory
[04:51] <nj786> crimsun, i dont know i have a standard computer mic
[04:51] <Xenos767> cables: no it was related to me trying to install xfree on accident. and I dont know what I removed that is my problem.
[04:51] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Hopefully it's just an xorg.conf problem, either reboot or re-chroot and run: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh
[04:51] <pSock> so why when making a kernel in ubuntu _everything_ is enabled as a module?
[04:51] <cables> Jordan_U, I've got a better idea
[04:51] <pSock> is there an easy way to unselect it all?
[04:51] <cronik> i have a sun netra t1 server,and i dont know if any of you know that this machine dose not bring any video card or anything like that,is control by serial "lom"
[04:51] <crimsun> nj786: is it plugged into the microphone jack on the computer?
[04:52] <cables> Xenos767, hold on, I'm going to just clear something with Jordan_U for a sec
[04:52] <Fezzler> Yet ls -a shows .dmrc
[04:52] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: so I do that in terminal when I boot up?
[04:52] <nj786> crimsun, into the computer
[04:52] <Fezzler> ?
[04:52] <Pelo> scoobydoo28139, that is all I can personnaly do for you,  I have no expecrince with ati or with tv cards, sorry
[04:52] <crimsun> nj786: ok, good, so that's the mic.
[04:52] <Jordan_U> cableroy, what?
[04:52] <cronik> and i was wondering if theer was a way to install some type of gui server
[04:52] <cronik> so u can access a gui from another linux machine
[04:52] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Wait for cableroy's suggestion
[04:52] <cables> Jordan_U, when I accidentally deleted my friend's Xorg.conf, what I did was boot the LiveCD and copy the Xorg.conf off of that (since the script for generating it only runs on the livecd startup)
[04:52] <lach_> can someone help me with bryle
[04:52] <lach_> beryl
[04:52] <Defient> omg another processing key has been released to public!
[04:52] <cry0x> cronik, you can forward X through SSH, or use something like VNC
[04:53] <Jordan_U> cables, Ahh, you are right, that will work.
[04:53] <cables> Jordan_U, I'd copy it onto something then I'd use a Knoppix disk to put it back onto the Ubuntu disk (since the Ubuntu LiveCD doesn't seem to be able to write to disks without some craziness)
[04:53] <nj786> crimsun, what next?
[04:53] <cables> !offtopic | Defient
[04:53] <ubotu> Defient: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:53] <Xenos767> Jordan_U well, how would I do that?
[04:53] <cronik> yea i was looking in to vnc but dont i need to have sometype of Desktop envirment install first?
[04:53] <crimsun> nj786: so the next thing you need to do is copy and paste the following commands into the Terminal: amixer set 'Capture' 90% && amixer set 'Mic Boost ( 20dB)' unmute && amixer set 'Mic' unmute && amixer set 'Mic' 90%
[04:53] <nj786> crimsun, is it all 1 command?
[04:53] <crimsun> nj786: yes, just copy and paste it
[04:54] <scoobydoo28139> pelo: At least you tryed. I went out and baught a sound card that would work, but i am done buying things for linux. I wonder if knoppix has anything. If they do it should cross over to ubuntu rite?
[04:54] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Mount your installed system again then run: sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /mountpoint/etc/X11/xorg.conf
[04:54] <nj786> crimsun, ok done
[04:54] <cables> Jordan_U, :)
[04:54] <crimsun> nj786: now, what program were you using to record?
[04:54] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: can you tell me the commands to re-mount it? Sorry
[04:54] <cry0x> cronik, I've never used VNC, so I'm not too sure. Forwarding X through SSH is an effective and secure way
[04:55] <nj786> crimsun, i was using AUDACITY but is that red X suposed to be there still?
[04:55] <Pelo> scoobydoo28139, is this a new ati tv card ? I mean a recent one ?  drivers might just not be out yet,  consider giving it a couple of monts
[04:55] <randoman> hey guys,  If  I have 2 monitors how do I stretch monitor 1 to montor 2 to share the desktop?

[04:56] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Then reboot to your installed partition
[04:56] <crimsun> nj786: haven't we fixed your sound problems?
[04:57] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: but how do I run it under the mounted partition? Or do I just run it under live cd
[04:57] <nj786> crimsun, what do you mean?
[04:57] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Just run it from the LiveCD
[04:57] <scoobydoo28139> pelo: Thank you and I am tired so, I say good night to ya. Thank you

[05:03] <cables> faight, you don't download anything, just do sudo aptitude install azureus
[05:04] <cables> faight, or go to Applications > Add/Remove
[05:04] <bruenig> repo azureus is flawed
[05:04] <bruenig> or azureus itself is flawed
[05:04] <nj786> crimsun, my mic is not workin anymore and i did not mess with any settings

[05:06] <nj786> crimsun, i did not
[05:06] <crimsun> nj786: no, really, you did.  You may think you didn't, but things don't magically change themselves. :-)
[05:07] <Jordan_U> One2abusE, http://wiki.clug.org.za/wiki/How_do_I_reset_my_root_password%3F

[05:07] <tom663> hey
[05:07] <_46> so, does that mean my battery on the motherboard went dead?
[05:07] <tom663> does anyone know how to uninstall java 1.5.0 on ubuntu 7.04 ?
[05:07] <One2abusE> thank you jordan
[05:07] <crimsun> nj786: please follow my directions from 2 minutes ago.
[05:07] <cables> nj786, audacity can change the settings, how hard would it be to just follow his instructions?
[05:07] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: Ok still returned with the error, and I read the debug. It says that /dev/wacom couldn't open, something about error with mouse and error with keyboard, then it says the fatal error message at the bottom
[05:08] <inflex> hey  ppl - looking for a library libqjpeg which my QCAD needs - but I can't find it :(
[05:08] <Pelo> tom663, use synaptic
[05:08] <beford> faight, check http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=173505 if you have problem with sudo and 'timestamp' message
[05:08] <nj786> crimsun, ok i pasted it into that url u sent me
[05:08] <crimsun> nj786: now, what's the url that you used?
[05:08] <illriginal> Can someone tell me where do I put my font that I just downloaded? I went to .fonts and there's nothing in there
[05:08] <beford> !java
[05:08] <ubotu> To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[05:08] <faight> thanks BEFORD
[05:08] <cables> illriginal, put it in .fonts
[05:09] <nj786> crimsun,http://pastebin.ca
[05:09] <tom663> Pelo Java 1.5.0 wasn't in synaptic
[05:09] <crimsun> illriginal: that's fine.  Just put the .ttf file(s) there, then run `sudo fc-cache -f -v`
[05:09] <illriginal> cables, but where are my other fonts?
[05:09] <illriginal> ok
[05:09] <cables> illriginal, in /usr/share/fonts
[05:09] <Pelo> inflex, there is a qcad package in syanptic in the add/remove app also,  you shuldn'T need to look for more dependencies
[05:09] <Niriven> Hi. I would like to build a ubuntu system from base up, i dont want to use the installer. I heard theres a way to do it. How do i? Alternate install? I want a base install then at-get from there.
[05:09] <cables> illriginal, .fonts is for your user's fonts
[05:09] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: are you there?
[05:09] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Do you remember anything more specific about what you did that broke it?
[05:09] <illriginal> ah ok :)
[05:09] <nj786> crimsun,http://pastebin.ca
[05:09] <Xenos767> Yeah
[05:09] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, no :)
[05:09] <illriginal> thanks guys, brb!
[05:09] <cables> Niriven, Ubuntu is probably not the distro for you then...
[05:09] <ichez> hi
[05:09] <Pelo> tom663, how did you install it ?
[05:09] <tom663> beford, I don't want to install java I just need to get rid of version 1.5.0
[05:09] <inflex> Pelo: I'm using the professional source version
[05:09] <inflex> Pelo: (not the OpenSource one)
[05:09] <tom663> Pelo, I don't remember... I have 3 versions of Java
[05:10] <SishGupta> l
[05:10] <crimsun> nj786: I need the output from the command
[05:10] <Jordan_U> Niriven, There is a minimal CD ( and Ubuntu *is* perfectly suited for this )
[05:10] <deviantintegral> Niriven: debootstrap
[05:10] <Niriven> cables: Yes, ubuntu is the distro i want. I want a base system and build from there.
[05:10] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: type in xfree into synaptic search and see if you have anything come up.
[05:10] <beford> tom663, oh, sorry, I missread your question, what kind of installer did you use?
[05:10] <crimsun> nj786: `amixer` is a command that will generate output.  That output is what I need pastebinned.
[05:10] <Pelo> tom663, figure out the right package name and sudo apt-get remove  packagename
[05:10] <nj786> crimsun, do i type amixer i nterminal?
[05:10] <nxvl> today isn't the bug day?
[05:10] <crimsun> nj786: yes
[05:10] <cables> Niriven, alternate is a text install, there's nothing more basic than that.
[05:10] <Niriven> Jordan_U: Thank you for giving me the correct answer :)
[05:10] <emach> <---- hi all. does installing ndiswrapper make most wifi devices plug and play in ubuntu, or do you need to go ahead and install the windows driver?
[05:11] <cables> Niriven, at least for Ubuntu. Other distros have even more basic install mechanisms, but as far as I know, Ubuntu doesn't.
[05:11] <Chetwin> !skippy
[05:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about skippy - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:11] <tom663> beford, I am not sure... I am trying to figure out how I installed it... it was awhile ago
[05:11] <crimsun> emach: ndiswrapper effectively _uses_ the Windows driver.
[05:11] <cables> emach, you need to install the Windows driver into ndiswrapper
[05:11] <Chetwin> Can anyone help me get skippy working?
[05:11] <nxvl> !bugday
[05:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bugday - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:11] <Niriven> cables: Jordan says theres a minimal install, which is what im looking for :)
[05:11] <nxvl> !bug day
[05:11] <nj786> crimsun, ok  i see a whole bunch of things in terminal after i typed amixer which 1 is it?
[05:11] <tom663> beford, It's conflicting with java6 for a project i'm working with
[05:11] <emach> cables and crimsun ah ok
[05:11] <crimsun> nj786: copy and paste all that output onto http://pastebin.ca
[05:11] <cables> Niriven, I thought you meant something like Gentoo's install
[05:11] <nxvl> !bug day
[05:12] <emach> cables and crimsun i'd just pop in the cd or download the windows driver and open with ndiswrapper?
[05:12] <beford> tom663, If you used the multiverse repository, try removing sun-java5-bin, sun-java5-jre packages
[05:12] <Niriven> cable: Oh, no. Been there, done that. I love ubuntus packages, and its system, i just want to build from base.
[05:12] <Pelo> inflex, check the qcad site for a link to the dependencies or google forthe source

[05:12] <cables> emach, it's quite a bit more complicated than that.
[05:12] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: did you try that?
[05:12] <cables> !tab | Niriven
[05:12] <ubotu> Niriven: You can use <tab> for autocompletion of nicknames in IRC, as well as for completion of filenames and programs on the command line.
[05:12] <nj786> crimsun, do i submit?
[05:12] <Chetwin> Can anyone give me some insight as to how I get skippy (window switcher) working after install?
[05:12] <emach> cables hmm perhaps i should just get a wifi device that is already supported.
[05:12] <cables> !ndiswrapper | emach, this should help you
[05:12] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Yes
[05:12] <ubotu> emach, this should help you: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs

[05:13] <nj786> crimsun, do i put ym name and everything on the bottom?
[05:13] <crimsun> nj786: yes, then tell me the new url
[05:13] <Niriven> Jordan_U: IS there an offical minimal install?
[05:13] <emach> cables is that a terminal command !ndiswarpper
[05:13] <cables> @lart Niriven for not thinking Ubotu is a bot
[05:13] <cables> emach, yep
[05:13] <cables> emach, no
[05:13] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: ok the last one should say something about xserver does it not?
[05:13] <cwraig> hi all i have a large number of data dvds  (300+) that i am now trying to dump their contents onto my HDD, is there an easy app out there that will copy all data and then eject the cd when the copy is done or do i need to get my bash scripting book out
[05:13] <cables> emach, that's something you do in the IRC chatroom to get Ubotu to tell people things
[05:13] <cables> @lart test
[05:14] <nj786> crimsun, here you go http://pastebin.ca/524527
[05:14] <cables> damn, it's been disabled in here
[05:14] <Jordan_U> Niriven, Yes, the download link is just buried and half impossible to find :)
[05:14] <crimsun> nj786: thanks, looking.  This will take a few minutes.
[05:14] <Niriven> Jordan_U: Noticed :_)
[05:14] <nj786> crimsun, alright
[05:14] <emach> cables ah that's kind of amazing
[05:14] <chjunior> godfish, ask them about your problem
[05:14] <emach> i guess i shouldn't thank ubotu?

[05:16] <tom663> thanks beford I will give it a try I uninstalled the things you said
[05:16] <Jordan_U> Niriven, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[05:16] <crimsun> nj786: several mixer elements' levels have been decreased.  Copy and paste the following commands into a Terminal: amixer set 'PCM' 80% && amixer set 'Mic' unmute && amixer set 'Mic' 90% && amixer set 'Mic Boost (+20dB)' unmute
[05:16] <godfish> "my computer is taking about 12minutes to boot up ubuntu, what can be going on?"
[05:16] <Jordan_U> Yes, what are you trying to do?
[05:16] <Niriven> Jordan: Thanks. Do you use the minimal install at all or no?
[05:16] <ziroday> godfish: on bbot up press alt-f2 for verbose mode
[05:17] <nj786> crimsun, o kdone
[05:17] <Pelo> godfish, some ppl have been having issues with the new kernel, try booting hte previous one and see if it is better
[05:17] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: well I edited that file before It stopped working, so I was going to see what I added so that I can trace back to where I found out what package to download.
[05:17] <crimsun> nj786: now record something in Audacity.
[05:17] <nj786> crimsun, ok one moment
[05:17] <godfish> ziroday: thanks, im new in linux my first time
[05:17] <chjunior> ziroday, it's in verbose mode.... we also have a photo from the boot screen
[05:17] <ziroday> godfish: np
[05:17] <purpzey> I am trying to install an acpi and when I modprobe it I keep getting the Fatal Error " No such device" Anyone know what might cause this or how to fix it?
[05:18] <nj786> crimsun, i can record but cannot listen to anything
[05:18] <Julie45> !pastebin
[05:18] <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)
[05:18] <nj786> crimsun, as in i can see the waves go up and down but i cannot play it
[05:18] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Ok, you can just mount the install and open it from the liveCD, or open it in the terminal from the installed system with: nano /etc/apt/sources.lst
[05:18] <godfish> pelo: thx, i ll try
[05:19] <chjunior> ziroday, http://paste.ubuntubrasil.org/i4292
[05:19] <chjunior> Pelo, http://paste.ubuntubrasil.org/i4292
[05:19] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: No I think that is the sources.list from my live CD, im talking about the one installed on my dev3 install.
[05:19] <nj786> crimsun are you there?
[05:19] <crimsun> nj786: I'm not sure what you mean by you can't play it
[05:20] <crimsun> nj786: yes, but be patient.  I'm at work and won't respond immediately.
[05:20] <nj786> crimsun, i cannot hear what  i recorded
[05:20] <Pelo> chjunior, why are you giving me this ?
[05:20] <nj786> crimsun, sorry but  i cannot hear what i just recorded
[05:20] <chjunior> Pelo, this is the boot screen of godfish
[05:20] <crimsun> nj786: were you able to earlier?
[05:20] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, To get the one from your other partition then go to the same path but with a /mountpoint before it
[05:21] <nj786> crimsun, yes when we worked on it earlier
[05:21] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: but I have to create the mountpoint first right? can you give me the command again?
[05:21] <Pelo> chjunior, godfish that just happens every noow and again,  it's just linux checking that the hdd are ok , nothing to worrry about,  if the hdds are very large it may take more time
[05:22] <crimsun> nj786: what did you change in Audacity or in the panel sound/mixer applet?
[05:22] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, write it down :) sudo mkdir /mountpoint && sudo mount /dev/whatever /mountpoint
[05:22] <nj786> crimsun, nothing i didnt should i?
[05:22] <crimsun> nj786: did you get rid of the red X?
[05:23] <ivan> guys what's the best laptop to run ubuntu on?
[05:23] <nj786> crimsun, no but the red x was gone when u told me to type tha stuff in termainl
[05:23] <chjunior> Pelo, yeah, I said it to him, but the problem is that it's happening every time...... every boot
[05:23] <crimsun> nj786: ok, we'll repeat the procedure from before.
[05:23] <Pelo> ivan,  system 76 has ubuntu preinstaled and dell is starting to offer some as well
[05:23] <nj786> crimsun, ok
[05:23] <crimsun> nj786: so the next thing you need to do is copy and paste the following commands into the Terminal: amixer set 'Capture' 90% && amixer set 'Mic Boost ( 20dB)' unmute && amixer set 'Mic' unmute && amixer set 'Mic' 90%
[05:23] <uakkeri> hi
[05:24] <ivan> pelo oh ok I was wondering about will it be fine on HP Pavilion dv9000t?
[05:24] <Pelo> chjunior,  might have to do with his lvm setup , that might take a bit of time to startup
[05:24] <nj786> crimsun, ok done
[05:24] <anathematic> what should i do to enable my 6.1 onboard sound card?
[05:24] <crimsun> nj786: now, record something.
[05:24] <Pelo> !hardware | ivan check in this list
[05:24] <ubotu> ivan check in this list: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:24] <Niriven> Jordan_U: If i take the recommendation "To install just the base system, type server", i wont do anything strange will it? Thats what i am looking for?
[05:24] <uakkeri> what mail notifier to use with ubuntu?
[05:24] <crimsun> anathematic: what do you mean by "enable"?  It should already be "enabled".  Is sound not audible?
[05:24] <nj786> crimsun, no it doent work
[05:25] <Pelo> uakkeri, try gnubiff
[05:25] <anathematic> crimsun: i've got my front two speakers working and sub (ie. 2.1) however the other speakers are not working =)
[05:25] <anathematic> where do i configure my sound stuff?
[05:25] <nj786> crimsun, i can see it recording but i cannot play it
[05:25] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: ok then one more time, how do I use the terminal on that mount
[05:25] <uakkeri> Pelo:thnx
[05:25] <crimsun> nj786: I really don't know what you mean by "cannot play it".  Do you mean it records but is inaudible?
[05:25] <crimsun> anathematic: pastebin `amixer` output
[05:25] <ivan> pelo thanks.. seems like it's not supported
[05:25] <crimsun> !paste >anathematic
[05:25] <godfish> Pelo: and it take about 13min to boot
[05:26] <Jordan_U> Niriven, I have never used it before but I wouldn't expect it too
[05:26] <nj786> crimsun, when i record my voice i cannot go back and play what i recorded
[05:26] <godfish> Pelo, i think that is to much
[05:26] <godfish> hehe
[05:26] <crimsun> nj786: are you trying to play the recorded wav file in audacity or in totem?
[05:26] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Look in gparted or: sudo fdisk -l
[05:26] <Pelo> ivan,  doesn't mean it won'T work  just means it's not on the list,  try checkingthe chipset and the rest of it individualy
[05:26] <anathematic> crimsun: oh i can't really paste the stufff from it now i'm on anothe computer and it's in another part of work, i'll get back ot you when i'm actually at it? lol
[05:26] <anathematic> sorry
[05:26] <razorbuzz> Hi there.  I'm having a heck of a time linking an SMB share since the kernel upgrade to 2.6.20 the other day.  "ln -s smb://meumo/Music ~/Desktop/Music"  is now throwing the error "No such file or directory" (but I can browse to it through Nautilus with the same directory path).
[05:26] <nj786> crimsun, in audacity it allows you to record whatever you like and play it
[05:26] <Pelo> godfish, so do I
[05:26] <crimsun> anathematic: um, it's kinda useless to ask for assistance if you aren't onsite... :)
[05:27] <Xenos767> Jordan_U I have already mounted it, im just trying to get back to that funky terminal that you had me at where I could run stuff from my installation
[05:27] <razorbuzz> I've chased a few possible solutions, but to no avail. Went so far as playing with cifs to see if that would work, but no-go
[05:27] <chjunior> Pelo, lvm setup? can you explain me?
[05:27] <anathematic> yeah crimsun  i was just under the impression it was some drivers or something sorry
[05:27] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz,
[05:27] <rolnyzx> you have to mount the samba share with mount
[05:27] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz, the smb:// only woks in nautilus
[05:27] <crimsun> nj786: play the resulting wav file with Movie Player, which is located in the Applications> Sound & Video   menu
[05:27] <godfish> Pelo, ahuhauah yah... i will try to reinstall and see what happens... but thx for the help..
[05:28] <Pelo> chjunior,  lvm  someting about spreading a partiton over multiple hdd,   it's mentionned in the screenshot
[05:28] <chjunior> Pelo, as I said, it's taking this time in every boot.... since he installed
[05:28] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, "sudo chroot /mountpoint" ( you need to bind /dev and /proc first if you are doing anything with hardware )
[05:28] <nj786> crimsun, do i save it or somehting then play it?
[05:28] <Pelo> chjunior, I heard the first time
[05:28] <crimsun> nj786: yes
[05:28] <chjunior> Pelo, so you think that some boots after it will fix?
[05:28] <nj786> crimsun, it should allow me to record and playback what i recorded
[05:28] <razorbuzz> rolnyzx:  Mount throws the same error.  I tried smbmnt (part of smbfs), but to no avail their either
[05:28] <nj786> crimsun, it just gives me that error
[05:29] <Pelo> chjunior, can you rephrase your question ?
[05:29] <nj786> crimsun, would u like to know what the error says?
[05:29] <crimsun> nj786: if you want me to assist you, please follow my recommendations.
[05:29] <nj786> crimsun ok
[05:29] <crimsun> nj786: yes, the error message would be useful.
[05:29] <nj786> crimsun would u like me to export it as WAVE?
[05:29] <razorbuzz> rolnyzx: smbmount gives me the error "ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess. Session setup failed."
[05:29] <crimsun> nj786: yes.
[05:30] <chjunior> Pelo, do you think that it will be fixed normally by it self?
[05:30] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz, and anyways, you are trying to make a link from your linux box in to the win box so you can browse your linux box in your winbox. That's not the way to do it
[05:30] <Pelo> chjunior, no I don't
[05:30] <godfish> Pelo, do you think that after some boots it will be better?
[05:30] <godfish> some thing like that
[05:30] <godfish> eheh
[05:30] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: wierd my sources.list is completely blank now.
[05:30] <Lilacor> LVM is awesome
[05:30] <godfish> ok
[05:30] <Pelo> godfish, I don'T think so ,
[05:30] <godfish> hauha
[05:31] <godfish> Pelo, me neither
[05:31] <razorbuzz> rolnyzx: No...I'm actually trying to make a link from the winbox to the Linux box so I can get rhythymbox to open it as a directory since it doesn't have the ability to grab it natively from SMB
[05:31] <nj786> crimsun:error while opening sound device. please check the output device settings and the output device settings and the project sample rate
[05:31] <chjunior> Pelo, so I didn't understand what should I do =/
[05:31] <Pelo> godfish, try a reinstall and stick to the default options, see if it gets better
[05:31] <razorbuzz> If I were going the other way, I'd simply map the network drive in Windows to the UNC of the linux box
[05:31] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: should I just try to re-install everything related to Xserver?
[05:31] <crimsun> nj786: ok, that's likely caused by some other program using the sound device.
[05:31] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz, where is rhythmbox in your winbox or in your linuxbox
[05:32] <robert98374>  /msg NickServ IDENTIFY <monkey>
[05:32] <razorbuzz> My linux box
[05:32] <Pelo> chjunior, see my last msg to godfish
[05:32] <robert98374> gr....
[05:32] <chjunior> Pelo, ok guy, thanks so ;)
[05:32] <Tux_XD> jaja
[05:32] <crimsun> nj786: copy and paste the following into a Terminal, then pastebin the output from it: lsof /dev/dsp* /dev/audio* /dev/mixer* /dev/snd/*
[05:32] <Tux_XD> no cacho nada
[05:32] <IamEthos_> does anyone know how long it will take dhcpcd to request a new IP if I deleted the lease for the one that it previously got?
[05:32] <nj786> crimsun, i recieved no output
[05:32] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, No, You should have everything you need from installing ubuntu-desktop
[05:33] <nj786> crimsun sorry i did but there is a whole bunch of things
[05:33] <nj786> should i copy and paste the 1 that saus mixer_app
[05:34] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: well is there a way to reinstall the main files of the installation without deleting all the files. Or, is there a way I can install 7.04 without creating a new partition, new installation, then updating all over again?
[05:34] <razorbuzz> rolnyzx:  There actually is not a winbox..they're both running Ubuntu, I was just unsuccessful getting NFS setup due to duplicate users on both machines.  The server is a webserver and my user has no shell access, so NFS was complaining about permissions I wasn't willing to change.  And on my laptop, I prefer to use the same username
[05:34] <Surf24> Hey all.
[05:35] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, You can save your /home to another partition then re-install, that will preserve all your user preferences and files
[05:35] <crimsun> nj786: yes, use http://pastebin.ca and tell me the url
[05:36] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: yeah, I did that, but can I install 7.04 without installing the old version from the live cd then updating. E.g. installing straight from terminal?
[05:37] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, No, you should just download the newest install CD
[05:37] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: oh ok. Oh well, this wasnt very productive.
[05:38] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz, what i would do is mount your share with smbmount
[05:38] <nj786> crimsun, here http://pastebin.ca/524576
[05:38] <razorbuzz> rolnyzx: It throws the error I mentioned previously
[05:38] <cycom> I've got fesity, and I have literally ever package that synaptic comes up with if you search for 'dvd' installed, but I still can't get totem to play my DVDs. VLC plays em fine.  Where can I get the totem plugin for DVDs?
[05:38] <calamari> hi
[05:38] <SuperQ> hi
[05:38] <crimsun> nj786: close both Pidgin and XMMS.

[05:39] <calamari> is there an easy way to figure out which driver I should use for my video card?
[05:39] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz, what do you write on terminal
[05:39] <crimsun> nj786: when you use Audacity, you cannot use any other program that uses the sound device.
[05:39] <Surf24> Can anyone suggest a good tutorial on vmware.  Is there a channel for it.
[05:39] <Pelo> Surf24, #vmware
[05:39] <Pelo> calamari, what videocard ?
[05:39] <demo_N> Does any one in here use Listen < I am unable to add my mp3's in to it?

[05:39] <nj786> crimsun, well thats the only program i need for my use
[05:39] <Pelo> !mp3 | demo_N

[05:40] <Xenos767> Jordan_U: well thanks anyways for your time. I wish we could have resolved the problem without installing a fresh version.
[05:40] <bruenig> ati, good luck
[05:40] <Pelo> calamari, fist try   menu > system > admin > restricted drivers
[05:41] <fxfitz> When I leave my computer idle, the screen just randomly turns black. I tried turning off the screen saver, but that doesn't seem to be it. Anyone have any ideas?
[05:41] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz, what about username and password
[05:41] <calamari> bruenig: this is an older card..
[05:41] <razorbuzz> rolnyzx: None necessary
[05:41] <purpzey> I am getting "Fatal Error no such device" from modprobe. I am trying to install an acpi module, I read on the forums that I have to change the grub settings to activate acpi that possible?
[05:41] <Pelo> fxfitz, in the screensave gui,  there is a button for the powersave stuff ,  there is a screen turnoff time in there
[05:41] <demo_N> Pelo: But i can play mp3 on Amarok and xmms
[05:42] <calamari> Pelo: will that conflict with nvidia restricted drivers?
[05:42] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz, sudo
[05:42] <Pelo> demo_N, personally I've never had much luck iwth listen, which is a shame becaue it looks nice
[05:43] <nj786> crimsun?
[05:43] <razorbuzz> rolnyzx: btdt, still doesn't work. Same error.
[05:43] <Pelo> calamari,  you have both nvidia and  ati cards on your computer ?  man you realy like trouble don'T you,  it shouldn'T interfeer,   it should install both if they are needed I beleive
[05:43] <razorbuzz> smbmount was chmod'd to u+s anyway
[05:43] <fxfitz> Pelo, Ahh. Gotcha. "Put display to sleep when inactive for" .. ? Right?
[05:43] <calamari> I got an ati card because nobody could tell me whether my nvidia driver was compatible with the nv driver... hehe
[05:43] <Pelo> fxfitz,  yes
[05:44] <lurking> im adding a new harddrive and i have already formatted it with ext3 but i can't chroot into it due to /bin/bash
[05:44] <fxfitz> Pelo, Awesome. Thank you!
[05:44] <calamari> Pelo: ok cool.. happen to know the package name?  I'm in kubuntu and don't have that menu path
[05:44] <nj786> crimsun, i tried to record with another recording program but it didnt work either
[05:44] <lurking> i tried copying it over and that didn't work
[05:44] <Pelo> calamari, the restricted driver thingy is also availabe in kubuntu,   ask in #kubuntu for the path
[05:44] <nj786> crimsun, btw is my sound icon on my pannel suposed to be on microphone?
[05:44] <crimsun> nj786: so one of the Capture settings is not configured correctly.
[05:44] <calamari>  /j kubuntu
[05:44] <calamari> argh
[05:44] <crimsun> nj786: it doesn't matter.
[05:44] <nj786> crimsun, becuase when i move my cursor to the sound icon it says microphone 90%
[05:45] <crimsun> nj786: pastebin your `amixer` again, and tell me the url
[05:45] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz, sudo apt-get install smbfs
[05:45] <calamari> Pelo: ahh cool, guess I already have it then.. fglrx
[05:45] <calamari> Pelo: thanks
[05:46] <Pelo> np
[05:46] <lurking> how can i apt-get install to a different filesystem (i cant seem to chroot to the new drive)
[05:46] <purpzey> I am trying to install an acpi module and receiving a fatal error from modprobe, I read on the forums that I have to change the grub settings to turn on acpi that correct?
[05:46] <razorbuzz> rolnyzx: Already did..that's why smbmount/smbmnt/smbumount are installed and in place
[05:46] <Tok> how do I remove a package that is missing dependencie
[05:46] <nj786> crimsun can i ge tthat pastwbin link
[05:46] <rolnyzx> razorbuzz, i would try again
[05:46] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know where my battery icon in the status tray has gone to, It seems to have completely vanished about a week or 2 ago for what seemed to be no reason at the time and I would like it back.  I have no indication of what power level my laptop is at? it just shuts down completely without warning
[05:46] <crimsun> purpzey: grub has nothing to do with enabling or disabling ACPI by default.
[05:46] <calamari> Tok: first fix broken packages
[05:46] <razorbuzz> rolnyzx: I have..multiple times.
[05:47] <crimsun> nj786: http://pastebin.ca
[05:47] <razorbuzz> I give up for the night.  Thanks for the help though
[05:47] <razorbuzz> exit
[05:47] <calamari> Tok: it's an option in synaptic
[05:47] <snerfu> I can't seem to find the build-essential package in feisty, is it still there?
[05:47] <calamari> Tok: then you should be able to do what you need to do
[05:47] <crimsun> snerfu: of course :)
[05:47] <purpzey> crimsun: i am trying to get the acer_acpi to work, and I keep getting Fatal Error: No such Device from modprobe...I am following a guide, and there is no indication of how to fix this. . . .
[05:47] <Tok> calamari, I tried the f option with apt-get but its not working
[05:47] <Pelo> snerfu, yes    sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:47] <snerfu> Ok, just making sure it wasn't renamed, thanks crimsun.
[05:47] <Tok> This seems to be keeping me from running x
[05:47] <nj786> crimsun, http://pastebin.ca/524597
[05:48] <calamari> Tok: I wish I were more familiar with the command line tools
[05:48] <Lilacor> purpzey: it sounds like the driver isn't available
[05:48] <purpzey> Lilacor: How would I fix that? I mean, I installed the driver, but I presume it is just not being located properly. . . .
[05:48] <Lilacor> purpzey: how did you install the driver?
[05:49] <Unievo> Windows is not showing up on my Grub boot loader
[05:49] <Paddy_EIRE> !windows

[05:49] <Pelo> Unievo, was windows installed when you installed grub ?
[05:49] <crimsun> nj786: ok, repeat the earlier steps regarding unloading and reloading the driver and setting the mixer levels
[05:49] <Unievo> yea
[05:49] <Tru7h> Hello
[05:50] <crimsun> nj786: you'll find them all in your bash history
[05:50] <crimsun> nj786: I need to return to work
[05:50] <snerfu> Ah thanks, I got build-essential, I had to get updates before apt would find it.
[05:50] <Pelo> Unievo, xp or vista ?
[05:50] <Unievo> Pelo, xp
[05:50] <nj786> crimsun, uh.......lol
[05:50] <calamari> Unievo: you can put it back in there.  /boot/grub/menu/lst is the file to edit
[05:50] <calamari> menu.lst
[05:50] <calamari> sorry :)
[05:50] <Tru7h> I'm wanting to install ubuntu, but I don't know if I should install Dapper, Edgy, or Fiesty. Which one should I get?
[05:50] <Lilacor> purpzey: the top survey says more No's than yes...are you sure this is okay?
[05:50] <nj786> crimsun, wwait
[05:51] <Pelo> Unievo,get me the devtree of the windows partition and I will give you the lines to add to menu.lst
[05:51] <calamari> Tru7h: since you haven't used any, I'd suggest Feisty
[05:51] <Paddy_EIRE> Tru7h, feisty
[05:51] <guest`> can i use kismet with wepattack
[05:51] <rolnyzx> Tru7h, Fiesty
[05:51] <nj786> i recorded somehting and exported it inas WAV and playedit in movie player and it worked
[05:51] <Unievo> ok
[05:51] <guest`> or is there a newer application
[05:51] <Unievo> hold on
[05:51] <Tru7h> Okay
[05:51] <Tru7h> Thanks
[05:51] <Lilacor> purpzey: what is your output from your make install?
[05:51] <calamari> bbl, rebooting
[05:51] <purpzey> Lilacor: Honestly, I have no idea how else to do it.....I found a guide for my wifi card, and that guide said, "and also install this if you have an acer"....So, it seems like if I can't get it to work that way. . . .
[05:51] <zero> Any idea how to open a basic zip archive in Ubuntu?
[05:52] <Lilacor> zero: 'unzip'
[05:52] <rolnyzx> zero, you can use 7zip
[05:52] <zero> 7zip works for it?
[05:52] <Paddy_EIRE> when does the whole CNR thing take place? was that not supposed to be one of feisty's features?
[05:52] <Lilacor> yes
[05:52] <zero> Didn't know that
[05:52] <nj786> crimsun?
[05:52] <zero> :P
[05:53] <cycom> zero: hahaha! yeah...

[05:53] <zero> Meh
[05:53] <Comrade-Sergei> how do you install a tar.gz file?
[05:53] <zero> It's Ubuntu's package manager that bugs me
[05:53] <zero> Other than that
[05:53] <Paddy_EIRE> Comrade-Sergei, what is it?
[05:53] <zero> It's user friendly
[05:54] <Pelo> Comrade-Sergei, http://cutlersoftware.com/ubuntuinstall/
[05:54] <cycom> zero: emerge is pretty awesome :)
[05:54] <Comrade-Sergei> Paddy_EIRE, a conrtoller for my mouse
[05:54] <zero> Yeah it is :)
[05:54] <rolnyzx> Comrade-Sergei, tar xvzf filename.tar.gz
[05:54] <zero> Anyway
[05:54] <cycom> zero: I miss eix, but other than that, I'm pretty much fully ubuntutized.  My server still runs gentoo.  Mostly because I have a gentoo case badge on it.
[05:54] <zero> Thanks
[05:54] <purpzey> Lilacor: I am rebooting as we speak, I will run the make install as soon as it boots.
[05:54] <zero> Hmm....
[05:54] <illriginal> Can someone help me? I deleted one of my panels... and now when I minimize a window it just disappears
[05:54] <calamari> cycom: hahah.. good reason I guess :)
[05:55] <zero> I like Gentoo because it's so fast
[05:55] <Lilacor> purpzey: I see
[05:55] <cycom> calamari: ;)
[05:55] <Comrade-Sergei> rolnyzx, what does the xvzf switch do( i wanna learn for next time)
[05:55] <cycom> zero: On a core 2 duo with 2gb of ram, just about anything is fast. Even vista ;)
[05:55] <zero> Haha
[05:55] <cycom> zero: laptop even.
[05:55] <zero> Yeah, you're right there
[05:55] <rolnyzx> Comrade-Sergei, "man tar" and read the description of each of the flags
[05:55] <calamari> cycom: don't need 2gmb of ram for linux .. hehe
[05:55] <cycom> zero: I LOVE this thing.  It's even a dell.  I got it before dell released ubuntu
[05:56] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: a .tar.gz file is usually actually a compressed directory (conceptually similar to a .zip or .rar file). You can decompress it via double-click or by entering "tar -zxvf filename.tar.gz" in command line
[05:56] <leotr> hi all. what package should i install for openoffice spell checking?
[05:56] <cycom> calamari: No, but I do for VMWare workstation 6.

[05:56] <acetech> i need these to run a wm5 device
[05:56] <Comrade-Sergei> rococo, i dont want to extract it
[05:56] <purpzey> Lilacor: it puts the file in /lib/modules/version/extra/acer_acpi.ko...and I see the file there.
[05:56] <calamari> cycom: have you tried qemu?  I'm curious how the speed compares to vmware
[05:56] <zero> Hm...
[05:56] <Comrade-Sergei> rococo, i want to install it
[05:56] <illriginal> Can someone help me? I deleted a panel and now I cannot see my windows that are opened after I minimize it!
[05:56] <cycom> calamari: no, but mostly because I'm too lazy to mess with all the config stuff.
[05:56] <Nubbie> leotr: it should already be installed for your language.
[05:56] <Paddy_EIRE> Comrade-Sergei, if you want to learn what the switches mean type "tar --help" in a term
[05:56] <zero> A vmware module is being built into the kernel now
[05:56] <cycom> calamari: well, I take that back.  I've tried it, but VMWare 'just works'
[05:57] <Nubbie> illriginal: rightclick the panel you do have, and select add panel
[05:57] <leotr> i don't have it. i am using russian
[05:57] <cycom> calamari: besides, it's what work uses.
[05:57] <leotr> Nubbie ^
[05:57] <illriginal> Nubbie, right?
[05:57] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: usually when you download software to install from those files, they contain directories that you need to configure and install from source (there's usually a README in the directory that tells you the best way to go about this in a few easy steps)
[05:57] <Nubbie> illriginal: errr add panel.
[05:57] <illriginal> Yeah add panel
[05:57] <Nubbie> illriginal: i mean new panel!
[05:57] <Nubbie> lol
[05:57] <acetech> what is the best way in ubuntu to update to the newest ipaq drivers?
[05:57] <Lilacor> purpzey: you've already did this? sudo gedit /etc/init.d/acer_acpi_wireless_enable
[05:57] <zero> So
[05:57] <Paddy_EIRE> illriginal, then add the buttons to the new panel like windows selector and the like
[05:57] <zero> 7zip is installed
[05:57] <zero> But it's still not working
[05:58] <Shaddox> Hi everyone. I need help with my qmail installation, and #qmail is totally unresponsive.
[05:58] <calamari> cycom: I only use one windows app now, but it works great in windows 95, so I can emulate that quite nicely in qemu
[05:58] <Nubbie> leotr: search for "openoffice" in synaptic, install the correct language.
[05:58] <Comrade-Sergei> rococo, lol i extracted it and its a exe file
[05:58] <illriginal> Ok after I make the new panel.. if I minimize this window... it's gonna disappear...
[05:58] <cycom> calamari: what might that be?
[05:58] <purpzey> Lilacor: No.
[05:58] <cycom> calamari: I mostly use VMWare for running other distros to learn about em, like CentOS and stuff.
[05:58] <Paddy_EIRE> illriginal, did you read my msg
[05:58] <Lilacor> purpzey: are we looking at the same page?
[05:58] <cycom> calamari: I have one XP box at work to run NTFS recovery tools.

[05:59] <illriginal> Thank you Nubbie and Paddy_EIRE
[05:59] <Nubbie> code47: first rule of linux: just state your problem!
[05:59] <Pelo> calamari, tell me about it , gramps just doesn't cut it ,  it won't load my sources properly
[05:59] <Paddy_EIRE> !ask
[05:59] <Lilacor> purpzey: are you able to modprobe the driver now?
[05:59] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:59] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: that's... rather unusual for linux. there's no install instructions from wherever you downloaded this file?
[05:59] <tritium> demo_N: with the restricted drivers, you want to read /usr/share/doc/nvidia-glx/README.txt.gz for details on TV-out.  See one of the appendices.
[05:59] <tritium> demo_N: and you won't want to use nvtv either
[06:00] <nj786> can anybody help me get my computer mic to work?
[06:00] <Comrade-Sergei> rococo kindof

[06:00] <code47> ok
[06:00] <Paddy_EIRE> code47, System > Administration > Restricted Driver Manager
[06:00] <bytekode> you can go to the store and buy a nvidia card
[06:00] <Lilacor> purpzey: does the driver even compile correctly?
[06:00] <Nubbie> code47: what problems... you'll get better help if you just tell people your problems.
[06:01] <Pelo> gotta go , g'night folks

[06:01] <tritium> demo_N: did you get that?
[06:01] <code47> i have problems using beryl
[06:01] <Nubbie> code47: join #ubuntu-effects and ask for help there.
[06:01] <hackle577> is there a way i can deny a specific user access to the terminal?
[06:01] <Lilacor> purpzey:  /lib/modules/version/ ... version ????
[06:01] <Lilacor> purpzey: is it really under 'version' ????
[06:01] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: and?
[06:01] <code47> i cant change themes and i have problem watching movies
[06:01] <Comrade-Sergei> oh god!
[06:01] <Paddy_EIRE> wow
[06:01] <Nubbie> wtf was that?
[06:01] <Lilacor> netsplit again
[06:01] <hackle577> whoa
[06:02] <Nubbie> eww somebody get his IP address.
[06:02] <hackle577> watch them all come back lol
[06:02] <zero> Gotta love net splits
[06:02] <Comrade-Sergei> rococo, well i have no idea how to do this since the file has no apparent extension
[06:02] <Nubbie> i gotta surprise for him when i find that IP.
[06:02] <tritium> Nubbie: no, no
[06:02] <Comrade-Sergei> rococo, it just says its an executible in properties
[06:02] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: I thought you said it was an .exe file
[06:02] <hackle577> is there a way i can deny a specific user access to the terminal?
[06:02] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: ah
[06:02] <purpzey> Lilacor: I should check if the device is in /modules/version/ ?
[06:02] <Lilacor> purpzey: does it really say "version" there????
[06:02] <Comrade-Sergei> did the niven server die?
[06:03] <Lilacor> purpzey: or did you make that directory manually.. <?>
[06:03] <GomoX> So I just installed a new kernel package as suggested by the orange star thing on my desktop
[06:03] <GomoX> which not very surprisingly resulted in a non-booting system
[06:03] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: if you trust the source, you can just run it from command line by typing "./filename" or "/path/to/filename"
[06:03] <Surf24> Bye All.
[06:03] <Lilacor> purpzey: hello??
[06:04] <Paddy_EIRE> GomoX, not surprising there seems to be a lot of trouble with the new .16 kernel
[06:04] <Nubbie> gomox: that does surprise me, because in the 4 years i've been using ubuntu, i've never had a non booting system after a kernel upgrade. came close one time, but luckily i don't have RAID.
[06:04] <purpzey> Lilacor: I am looking for "version"
[06:04] <hackle577> is there a way i can deny a specific user access to the terminal?
[06:04] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: I mean, as long as it's a proper standalone executable and not an install file of some sort. If you want to be able to run it from command line at any time, put it in one of your paths, such as /usr/bin (you'll need to do this as sudo)
[06:04] <GomoX> Nubbie: I sortof trusted it to work after hesitating to upgrade for a few days
[06:04] <Lilacor> purpzey: I'm asking... what is listed under /lib/modules
[06:04] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: but I'd say try running it first to make sure it works
[06:04] <GomoX> Is there a bug description? it is a raid issue indeed
[06:05] <MSTK> does anyone know of a way where I can view package descriptions/info in the terminal using apt-get?
[06:05] <Lilacor> purpzey: does it literally say 'version' ....????
[06:05] <Paddy_EIRE> hackle577, they will still have access afaik but you can restrict what they can do in it
[06:05] <MSTK> it's the only reason I'm still using the GUI package manager.
[06:05] <hackle577> Paddy_EIRE: how so?
[06:05] <Comrade-Sergei> rococo it looks like its working so far, (the coding looks like perl ,so i should be able to edit it anyways)
[06:05] <tom343> Is there an easy way to set up an IRC bot that could log conversations in ubuntu?
[06:05] <Paddy_EIRE> hackle577, one mo, I'll check see
[06:05] <purpzey> Lilacor: Just the kernel.
[06:05] <GomoX> ubuntu needs apt-listbugs
[06:05] <GomoX> integrated into that updatey-thing
[06:05] <Nubbie> tom343: um use xchat.
[06:06] <GomoX> MSTK: apt-cache search <package>
[06:06] <Lilacor> purpzey: so it says kernel there???
[06:06] <Paddy_EIRE> tom343, are you using xchat
[06:06] <GomoX> or apt-cache show <package>
[06:06] <MSTK> tom343 - or GAIM pretty much has the same capabilities
[06:06] <MSTK> GomoX - thanks :)
[06:06] <purpzey> Lilacor: ls under modules is 2.6.20-15-generic
[06:06] <silent_> is there a new stable kernel out?
[06:06] <Lilacor> purpzey: what kernel are you currently using?
[06:06] <Paddy_EIRE> silent_, not yet
[06:06] <tom343> well its for an open source chat so we would like the conversations to be available online
[06:06] <tom343> for people to see
[06:06] <tom343> who weren't there
[06:06] <purpzey> Lilacor: 15 I believe...This is a fresh install.
[06:06] <silent_> lol, then why are you bothering with 16?
[06:06] <nj786> can anybody help me get my mic to work?
[06:06] <nj786> computer mic
[06:06] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: oh, yeah, perl is fine since it's interpreted. you can run perl scripts using the "perl" command, but you see that line at the beginning that says #!/usr/bin/perl? That tells UNIX how to run it without you needing to specify
[06:07] <tom343> open source chat... I mean its a chat for an open source project
[06:07] <fail> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/106622 <-- How would I apply this patch
[06:07] <tom343> Paddy_EIRE, I am using xchat
[06:07] <Lilacor> purpzey: what does 'uname -r' say?
[06:07] <tritium> demo_N: are you going to reply???
[06:07] <Nubbie> tom343: xchat does logging.... leave it on in here.... put the logs on a website.
[06:07] <GomoX> I can't believe "ubuntu's apt-listbugs only queries debian's BTS" is a freaking _medium_ priority bug
[06:07] <Paddy_EIRE> tom343, sry thought you meant something else
[06:07] <purpzey> Lilacor: 2.6.20-15-generic
[06:07] <Nubbie> tom343: or were you looking for something a little more real-time?
[06:07] <demo_N> Tritium, I got it, But it is soo crude
[06:08] <fail> This USB joystick bug is killing me
[06:08] <tritium> demo_N: which is crude?
[06:08] <tom343> Nubbie, yeah I was hoping to have it real time
[06:08] <demo_N> I am looking up more information to get it done
[06:08] <fail> And I have no idea how to patch the kernel to fix it
[06:08] <tritium> demo_N: did you read the document?
[06:08] <Comrade-Sergei> rococo i know im a perl programmer
[06:08] <Paddy_EIRE> hackle577, System > Administration > Users and Groups
[06:08] <tom343> uploading my logs would be ugly and a big time
[06:08] <demo_N> The Readme on nvidia
[06:08] <Nubbie> tom343: there's probably java applications to do what you're looking for.
[06:08] <tritium> demo_N: you edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf, following that doc, and there you have it
[06:08] <demo_N> yeah i did read , Only the section H which says about configuring tv out
[06:08] <tritium> demo_N: correct.
[06:08] <Niriven> Hmm. I did a minimal install and got everything i wanted. Though, i dont see a gnome metapackage, is there not one?
[06:08] <tritium> demo_N: you're all set
[06:08] <Lilacor> purpzey: what if you try 'insmod <drivername>'
[06:09] <fail> Anyone free to help?
[06:09] <inflex-> hi there, I can't seem to print properly to my A0 plan printer via CUPS, is there a way I can print a Postscript file directly to a HP Jetdirect enabled printer -without- using CUPS ?
[06:09] <inflex-> ie, lpr -P192.168.1.171:0 foo.ps ?
[06:09] <tritium> Lilacor, purpzey: sudo modprobe <module_name>
[06:09] <brandonr> During installation, I entered the wrong network information. Is there a package I can reconfigure or do I have to edit the settings by hand?
[06:09] <Comrade-Sergei> rococo, great now it says my mouse is nonexistant
[06:10] <tritium> inflex-: even that is a cli way to print through cups
[06:10] <hackle577> Paddy_EIRE: Yeah I'd seen that before, but I was hoping I could somehow cut off terminal access altogether
[06:10] <purpzey> Lilacor: No such device
[06:10] <Joshooa> Hey I have a bluetooth phone and it says I'm supposed to use Windows Media Player 10 and WMA files to use the music player, any ideas on how to use it now cause I'm on Linux
[06:10] <rococo> Comrade-Sergei: well, that sounds like a problem with the program
[06:10] <Lilacor> purpzey: what is the full error you encounter when you're trying to modprobe the driver?
[06:11] <hackle577> Paddy_EIRE: I'm Googling for it and nothing comes up so I'm betting it can't de done
[06:11] <fail> http://librarian.launchpad.net/7330986/ems_usbii.diff <-- I have no idea how to apply this
[06:11] <purpzey> Lilacor: insmod: error inserting 'acer_acpi.ko': -1 No such device
[06:11] <Lilacor> purpzey: what about when you try to modprobe it?
[06:12] <Paddy_EIRE> hackle577, in linux Im pretty certain it can be done
[06:12] <GomoX> So what's up with the new kernel and mdadm? I can't find the corresponding bug
[06:12] <purpzey> Lilacor: FATAL: Error inserting acer_acpi (/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/extra/acer_acpi.ko): No such device
[06:12] <hackle577> Paddy_EIRE: with adduser and some obscure switch maybe?
[06:13] <Lilacor> purpzey: but is the device listed underneath that directory?
[06:13] <Paddy_EIRE> hackle577, technically you will never be able to disable the terminal for a user as its an integral part of the os, its basically what your using right now
[06:13] <purpzey> Lilacor: If I ls it?
[06:13] <anathematic> a good burning program for ubuntu? :D
[06:13] <anathematic> (burning cd's etc)
[06:13] <Lilacor> purpzey: yes
[06:13] <Lilacor> anathematic: DVD/CR burner?
[06:13] <anathematic> Lilacor:  yes =)
[06:13] <Lilacor> anathematic: CD/DVD Creator
[06:13] <tritium> anathematic: nautilus can do it, for one
[06:14] <nj786> can anybody help me fix my computer mic?
[06:14] <Paddy_EIRE> hackle577, although you can restrict what a user can do in it via System > Administration > Users and groups
[06:14] <anathematic> nautius any good? :)
[06:14] <GomoX> also ubuntu took the liberty of "fixing" my menu.lst file
[06:14] <purpzey> Lilacor: It's there via ls
[06:15] <solarion> anyone know what kernel: [ 1279.468000]  device-mapper: table: 254:0: li
[06:15] <hackle577> Paddy_EIRE: Yeah, I'm also taking a gander at this thread -> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2679140
[06:15] <solarion> near: dm-linear: Device lookup failed
[06:15] <solarion> is about?
[06:15] <Lilacor> purpzey: sorry, I can't help you.
[06:15] <Lilacor> purpzey: I don't know.
[06:15] <purpzey> Lilacor: Any idea what might be the cause?
[06:15] <Lilacor> purpzey: you've already rebooted and tried to modprobe the driver right?
[06:16] <radioaktivstorm> quick question
[06:16] <silent_> I think I'm in love with Linux
[06:16] <purpzey> Lilacor: yes.
[06:16] <Lilacor> purpzey: sorry, I don't know.
[06:16] <hackle577> silent_: there are 1039 people in here that feel the same
[06:16] <Paddy_EIRE> hackle577, seems like overkill if you must do this with each file
[06:16] <fail> Actually, my question is a dead eng
[06:16] <fail> end*
[06:16] <nj786>  can anybody help me fix my computer mic?
[06:16] <fail> It's not for the right device
[06:16] <radioaktivstorm> should the linux-swap be primary or extendedi m helping my friend install but  i forgot >_<
[06:16] <Paddy_EIRE> hackle577, there are tools in the repos for greater user control
[06:16] <Phenax> Openssh server won't start, it says [fail]  but I have no idea why.
[06:17] <Phenax> Is there anyway to start up a daemon and to know WHY it failed?
[06:17] <tritium> Phenax: have you checked the system log files for details?
[06:17] <Niriven> Phenax: check /var/log files for details
[06:17] <hackle577> Paddy_EIRE: Yeah I'm looking at some, although I think I may be able to accomplish it with some permissions tweaking perhaps
[06:17] <Paddy_EIRE> radioaktivstorm, primary, I dont think swap will let you select anything else?
[06:17] <hackle577> at least, something close
[06:18] <tritium> Phenax: System->Administration->System Log is easier than poking around in /var/log
[06:18] <purpzey> tritium: You have any idea what might cause this issue...The device won't show up on lsmod, or modprobe, but it is in the location that modprobe is looking for it...
[06:18] <radioaktivstorm> ok thanks  Paddy_EIRE
[06:18] <Paddy_EIRE> hackle577, yeah, if you must be secure then that is the way to do it
[06:18] <Phenax> NETSPLIt
[06:18] <Paddy_EIRE> radioaktivstorm, no probs
[06:18] <Paddy_EIRE> whats goin on with that
[06:18] <Paddy_EIRE> 3 times in 15 mins
[06:18] <Shaddox> wow what the...who are all those random people that get d/ced 60 at a time?
[06:18] <Toulouse> hey guys, i cannot get my usb headset (with microphone) working
[06:19] <Toulouse> any suggestions
[06:19] <spikeb> we've turned into dalnet!
[06:19] <tritium> purpzey: what do you mean?  I don't fully understand your description
[06:19] <fail> Toulouse, are there any generic usb headset drivers?
[06:19] <xenos767> Jordan_U are you still here?
[06:19] <nj786> tritium. can u help me
[06:19] <fail> That would be my first thought
[06:19] <Toulouse> yeah, a usb audo logitech thing
[06:19] <Toulouse> is that what you mean?
[06:19] <tritium> nj786: with your mic?  I'm not sure that I can.
[06:19] <Toulouse> when i go to alsamixer
[06:20] <tritium> nj786: what have you tried, and what's happening?
[06:20] <Toulouse> it has a "Card" as USB-Audio
[06:20] <purpzey> tritium: I am look to install an acpi...I make install...I run modprobe and it returns, no such device, but, when I ls that location, it's there.
[06:20] <fail> No I mean like a driver that was made to support a wide range of head sets
[06:20] <Jordan_U> Xenos767, Yes
[06:20] <Toulouse> oh
[06:20] <nj786> tritium, no it is a simple computer mic
[06:20] <Toulouse> where would i check that?
[06:20] <fail> Lemme try and find one
[06:20] <Paddy_EIRE> purpzey, which acer you got
[06:20] <xenos767> Jordan_U: my live CD install isnt working, I have tried it many times. Do you know any other options of how I can install ubuntu again without it?
[06:20] <purpzey> Paddy_EIRE: 3050, it's actually a friends I am working on.
[06:21] <tritium> purpzey: oh, I see.  You'd want to "sudo modprobe ./<filename>" if it's in your cwd
[06:21] <Paddy_EIRE> purpzey, great laptops
[06:21] <nj786> tritium, i mean in audacity when i record somehting i can see the waves move but i cannot play what i just recorded
[06:21] <fail> What happens Toulouse
[06:21] <Phenax> Nope, nothing in the log files about ssh
[06:21] <Toulouse> well, in audacity, it works fine
[06:21] <purpzey> tritium: ./fullpath or just driver name?
[06:21] <nj786> tritium?
[06:21] <Phenax> any other ideas as to why openssh-server is failing to start?
[06:22] <Toulouse> but in other apps (Skype) & (Audio Record) it doesnt work
[06:22] <Jordan_U> xenos767, In what way is it not working ( you can also use the alternate install CD )
[06:22] <Toulouse> so, i dont know what to change
[06:22] <Lilacor> purpzey: what version of driver do you have?
[06:22] <fail> Maybe because those apps are set to use ALSA/OSS instead of OSS/ALSA
[06:22] <fail> Hmm
[06:22] <fail> Lemme download skype
[06:22] <Toulouse> fail, ok
[06:22] <Toulouse> thank you
[06:23] <Toulouse> i'll look around while you get that
[06:23] <purpzey> Lilacor: I believe the most recent...05
[06:23] <nj786> ok does anybody in herre know how to get a SIMPLE computer mic to work?
[06:23] <purpzey> Lilacor: My mistake .04
[06:23] <Lilacor> purpzey: confirm
[06:23] <Lilacor> purpzey: download the latest
[06:23] <Phenax> Openssh server won't start, it says [fail]  but I have no idea why, any ideas why?
[06:23] <Toulouse> fail, also i dont get sound output (in the headset) out of firefox
[06:23] <xenos767> Jordan_U: it crashes mid way through installation with an error code. What is the alternate install CD? I haven't burned any other files. I would try to download 7.04 to my HD but, it downloads at about 3kb/s where as my normal is around 600kb/s.
[06:23] <Phenax> nj786: run alsamixer in a terminal, hit tab to go in 'capture' and max everything but PCM (PCM should be at 0)
[06:24] <fail> I'm guessing it may be an alsa oss mix up
[06:24] <fail> But I'm not an expert
[06:24] <fail> So
[06:24] <Toulouse> fail, that sounds right
[06:24] <Toulouse> but i dont know what to do about it
[06:24] <tritium> purpzey: just the filename in the current working directory
[06:24] <fail> But I have been having these stupid problems with them
[06:24] <Jordan_U> xenos767, It's not easy to find, here is the complete download page: http://releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/
[06:24] <Lapinux> hello
[06:24] <Toulouse> haha me too
[06:24] <tritium> nj786: work with Phenax, if you can
[06:24] <Paddy_EIRE> of to sleep, its 05:25 YIKES...later
[06:25] <Toulouse> i had it before and now (after) i upgraded to feisty
[06:26] <purpzey> tritium: module not found
[06:26] <nj786> phenax, does PCM need to be max in (all)
[06:26] <fail> Should be done downloading in a minute or two
[06:26] <Toulouse> fail, also one thing that might help is if i blow into the mic, i can hear it in headphones
[06:26] <xenos767> Jordan_U: wow, it is going really fast now. Was it really that hard to find?
[06:26] <Toulouse> so the headset kinda works
[06:27] <tritium> purpzey: which module are you compiling, and why?
[06:27] <fail> k
[06:27] <nj786> phenax?
[06:27] <purpzey> tritium: acer_apci b/c I need it for my wireless to work.
[06:27] <purpzey> acpi*
[06:28] <tritium> purpzey: you ran make install?
[06:28] <nj786> phenax are you there?
[06:28] <fail> Also anyone have any idea how to fix the bug with USB joysticks where pressing a button triggers a constant on/off
[06:28] <fail> Instead of 1 button press
[06:28] <purpzey> tritium: Yes.
[06:28] <Toulouse> fail, my usb joystick dont work either lol
[06:28] <Jordan_U> xenos767, They used to link directly to that page before they revamped the site so I knew where it was, but I don't think they even link to it from anywhere on the site anymore
[06:28] <Toulouse> it kinda works
[06:28] <tritium> purpzey: then modprobe or modinfo should find it.  Try either, please
[06:29] <fail> Yeah it sucks
[06:29] <Toulouse> ubuntu has this great OS, with no sound support
[06:29] <purpzey> tritum: The return of the install was depmod -a
[06:29] <dkulchenko> 9 hours, 31 minutes till the release of Fedora 7
[06:29] <Toulouse> i can understand joysticks, but not sound
[06:29] <Toulouse> dkulchenko, wrong chat room man
[06:30] <tritium> purpzey: please just tell me if modinfo acer_acpi returns anything
[06:30] <purpzey> tritium: FATAL: Error inserting acer_acpi (/lib/modules/2.6.20-15-generic/extra/acer_acpi.ko): No such device
[06:30] <Lilacor> purpzey: did you download the latest driver?
[06:30] <anathematic> what's a program to recover software after you've slipped and formatted a drive?
[06:30] <fail> Toulouse, got it installed
[06:30] <Toulouse> ok
[06:30] <fail> Lemme find the settings
[06:30] <Jordan_U> Toulouse, Sound works great for me :)
[06:31] <purpzey> Lilacor: I just located it, I downloaded the package, I thought maybe it's an error with my install.....if your thought is that the new package might alleviate this, I can go that route.
[06:31] <Toulouse> Jordan_U: do you have a usb headset w/ mic?
[06:31] <tritium> purpzey: please just tell me if modinfo acer_acpi returns anything
[06:31] <fail> Okay
[06:31] <Lilacor> purpzey: download the latest and try to install that http://aceracpi.googlecode.com/files/acer_acpi-0.5.tar.bz2
[06:31] <Toulouse> fail: either dial echo123 or press test button
[06:31] <fail> Toulouse, you played around with the sound devices tab
[06:31] <fail> ?
[06:31] <Toulouse> it will tell you if you sound works
[06:31] <Toulouse> yeah, a bit, lemme look again
[06:31] <fail> I don't have a mic btw
[06:31] <Jordan_U> Toulouse, No, but I have regular headset that connects to my mic in
[06:31] <anathematic> what's a program to recover software after you've slipped and formatted a drive?
[06:32] <EADG_> anathematic: mondo
[06:32] <anathematic> ty
[06:32] <Jordan_U> anathematic, testdisk ?
[06:32] <hatter> what do i use in gnome to burn an iso image to a dvd ?
[06:32] <tritium> hatter: right-click, and choose that option
[06:32] <Jordan_U> hatter, Right click on the .iso and choose burn
[06:32] <Toulouse> hatter: try k3b
[06:32] <tritium> no need for k3b when nautilus can do it
[06:32] <Toulouse> or that
[06:33] <fail> Toulouse, was it set to ALSA or OSS?
[06:33] <hatter> right click gives an option to write to disc, this will burn the iso as an image ?
[06:33] <purpzey> tritium: Not the issue at all, I am trying to type the output, b/c there is no net on that machine
[06:34] <Toulouse> fail, lol it needed to see the usb sound card in my headset
[06:34] <Toulouse> im sorry i wasted you time
[06:34] <Toulouse> *your
[06:34] <fail> No problem
[06:34] <fail> Actually

[06:37] <mikech> anyone using that on vista? it seems not so stable
[06:37] <Jay> hi everyone
[06:37] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: it uses you default chipset, which is usually ALSA
[06:37] <Hobbsee> nj786: he's not here anymore.
[06:37] <fail> Never tried Wubi
[06:38] <Toulouse> dkulchenko: how do i set it to another one?

[06:38] <nj786> hobbsee, great im out of luck
[06:38] <Toulouse> i need it to go to my usb headset
[06:38] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: i do not believe you can change it in wine directly, but you can change your system configuration to make a diferent one default
[06:38] <Jay> I have a question
[06:38] <Toulouse> dkul, how do i do that
[06:38] <fail> So anyone know how to fix the usb joystick bug

[06:38] <purpzey> tritium: You are not helping me anymore? I am sorry, I was trying to type output as fast as possible.
[06:38] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: does your usb headset have a phones jack?
[06:39] <Toulouse> dkul: no
[06:39] <Toulouse> it's only usb
[06:39] <Toulouse> w/mic
[06:39] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: a microphone jack?
[06:39] <Toulouse> no
[06:39] <Toulouse> just usb
[06:39] <dkulchenko> ok
[06:39] <dkulchenko> one sec
[06:39] <Phenax> So is there any easy way of setting up XGL for Beryl (ATI)?
[06:39] <Toulouse> so we got skype working, but it's the 2nd alsa device
[06:39] <EADG_> fail: www.frankscorner.com I saw it's a page on linux gaming... there's a bit about joysticks, it might help ya.
[06:39] <fail> Phenax, lemme grab the guide I used
[06:39] <djzn> how do I disable a module in Feisty? do I just blacklist it?
[06:40] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: ok, go to System->Preferences->Sound.
[06:40] <Toulouse> phenax: beryl wiki, 123 automatic script setup (it takes three clicks)
[06:40] <fail> EADG, thanks
[06:40] <Defient> shalalala
[06:40] <Defient> woohoo
[06:40] <Toulouse> dkul: ok
[06:40] <Toulouse> been here
[06:40] <Jay> I am booting Ubuntu from a CD-ROM, and my Xserver always fails.
[06:40] <Jordan_U> Phenax, Yes, but XGL is a hack, don't expect it to be stable
[06:40] <fail> What
[06:40] <fail> And I installed Beryl the long way
[06:40] <fail> Damnit
[06:40] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: see all the autodetects?
[06:41] <Toulouse> Phenax: if you use the three click script and your system x server breaks, your distro is FUBAR'd
[06:41] <djzn> quit
[06:41] <Toulouse> dkul: yeah
[06:41] <Toulouse> they all work
[06:41] <Defient> lalalala
[06:41] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: change them to the headset
[06:41] <Toulouse> but wine (vintrilo doesnt work
[06:41] <xenos767> How Do I save a file from the internet to a disk while on a live CD?
[06:41] <Defient> BOOMSHAKALAKA
[06:41] <Toulouse> dkul: ive got that all done
[06:41] <jguest> I used up all the space on my box. Now I can't log in since there's no room left on the HD. I'm logged in now and can view the files, but can't delete any since I don't have permission. How do I change permissions so that I can delete some files?
[06:41] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: ok, now load vintrilo
[06:42] <Toulouse> ok
[06:42] <sahil> i have a gentoo installation on one hd, and i installed ubuntu onto another hd what would i put in my grub.conf to boot ubuntu from my initial boot partition?
[06:42] <Jay> I did the "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" command and then "startx" after I did all of that, but it still doesn't work.
[06:42] <Jordan_U> jguest, sudo
[06:42] <sahil> i see that ubuntu uses menu.lst which i am not familiar with
[06:42] <xenos767> How do I save a file to a partition while on a live CD?
[06:42] <Toulouse> dkul: i got it, and have selected usb mixer
[06:42] <Phenax> Well is there any 'good' way of using Beryl with ATI graphics cards?
[06:42] <Jordan_U> Jay, In what way does it fail?
[06:42] <nj786> hey can anybody in here help me fix my COMPUTER mic and get it to work
[06:43] <Toulouse> dkul: maybe i need to wait for the linux version of vent
[06:43] <Jordan_U> xenos767, mount it and save it, just like normal
[06:43] <jguest> Jordan_U: i don't know the su password for the ubuntu cd
[06:43] <sahil> or rather ubuntu doesn't use grub.conf
[06:43] <Jay> Not sure. I get a message saying "no screens detected" or something of that nature.
[06:43] <Toulouse> wine doesnt play nice with it i guess
[06:43] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: yeah.
[06:43] <Jordan_U> jguest, *sudo* not su, there is no root account
[06:43] <tritium> jguest: it's disabled.  use sudo
[06:43] <Toulouse> dkul; thanks for the help tho
[06:43] <tritium> There _is_ a root account, but it is disabled.
[06:43] <sahil> Phenax: use the xgl implementation
[06:43] <xenos767> Jordan_U the partition is mounted, but I cant save the iso from the website to the partition because I cant browse to it.
[06:44] <dkulchenko> Toulouse: no prob
[06:44] <czr> sahil, menu.lst _is_ the configuration file of grub. some other distros use grub.conf instead, but menu.lst is the real name
[06:44] <Jay> I think it's detecting my integrated video card and not my new nVidia one.
[06:44] <czr> sahil, it's the same file
[06:44] <Jordan_U> xenos767, It should be in Filesystem/mountpoint
[06:44] <Toulouse> jay, is it all scrambled and stuff?
[06:44] <nicholaspaul> Q: Why does IRSSI say 'erroneous nickname' when I try to get into freenode????
[06:44] <Jay> what do you mean, toulouse?
[06:44] <Toulouse> when it says no screens
[06:44] <Toulouse> like a bunch of random characters aroundit
[06:44] <sahil> czr: so i should copy the the entry from menu.lst from the ubuntu installation to my gentoo grub.conf
[06:45] <xenos767> Jordan_U: there is no Filesystem/mountpoint
[06:45] <sahil> czr: will it have the right hard drive for root and what not?
[06:45] <amonkey> why is move greyed out when i rightclick on things on my gnome panels? for some reason the volume icon is in the wrong place and theres a huge gap now.
[06:45] <czr> sahil, honestly, I have no idea. it would depend on what your gentoo grub.conf contains :-)
[06:45] <sahil> czr:there is actually a menu.lst in my gentoo boot directory i could edit that as well
[06:45] <matman> hi, i just bought a macbook c2d 2.0 and i was wondering which version of ubuntu i need to download
[06:45] <sahil> czr:care to take a look?
[06:46] <nicholaspaul> amonkey: are they locked?
[06:46] <czr> sahil, quickly then :-)
[06:46] <Jordan_U> xenos767, In the terminal it will be /mountpoint From the GUI go to Places -> Computer -> Filesystem -> mountpoint
[06:46] <salvino> People, how can I remove/uninstall a program compiled from the source... I just compiled Pidgin, it went all ok, but I need to reinstall it with a missing SSL lib, but first I need to remove the old install
[06:46] <spikeb> matman: either the regular or the 64 bit pc image will do fine
[06:46] <czr> sahil, join #foobarzoo
[06:46] <nicholaspaul> amonkey: at the bottom of the right click menu it might say 'Lock to Panel'
[06:46] <amonkey> nicholaspaul, i'm gonna leave the channel and go cry no
[06:47] <matman> spikeb i heard that the 32 didn't support the second precessor, which is why i bought it
[06:47] <ses1959_> question on modems I have a us robotics usr263095 oem and the syst info shows it but has unknown device with subsystem error 2013
[06:47] <spikeb> hmmm
[06:47] <neztiti> guys can i add kda to ubuntu 6.10 ???
[06:47] <ses1959_> is there a driver that can be added to make it work?
[06:47] <spikeb> matman: well, you can try the 32bit first and see if that is true.
[06:48] <cables> neztiti, do you mean kde?
[06:48] <Jordan_U> neztiti, Yes, just install kubuntu-desktop
[06:48] <neztiti> yes
[06:48] <neztiti> give the command
[06:48] <cables> neztiti, < sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop > will do what Jordan_U suggested
[06:48] <xenos767> Jordan_U: ok I found it now, but it says I dont have permission to write to that file (/mountpoint/home/xenos/desktop)
[06:48] <Shaddox> neztiti: The regular Ubuntu and the Xubuntu interfaces I personally find better than KDE's overall performance.
[06:48] <nicholaspaul> Q: Why does IRSSI say 'erroneous nickname' when I try to get into freenode????
[06:49] <matman> spikeb, thanks for that.  how do i tell if both processors are recognized?  How do i test that they are being utilized?
[06:49] <czr> nicholaspaul, have you asked on #irssi?
[06:49] <nicholaspaul> czr no i havent...thanks :)
[06:49] <spikeb> hmm
[06:49] <Jordan_U> xenos767, What file are you trying to save/copy/change?
[06:49] <nj786> ok guys does anybody know how to fix sound?
[06:49] <nj786> i need help weith my sounfd
[06:49] <cables> matman, do this: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[06:49] <spikeb> matman: you can type cat /proc/cpuinfo
[06:49] <spikeb> matman: that should tell you
[06:49] <Tom47> !sound | nj786
[06:49] <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
[06:50] <cables> (jk)
[06:50] <spikeb> haha cable
[06:50] <xenos767> Jordan_U: im trying to save that Iso for ubuntu on a filedisk.
[06:50] <nj786> tom47, can you help me?
[06:50] <nj786> cables, can you help me?
[06:51] <Tom47> nj786 no not directly other than pointing to the primary plce to go seek help in the first instance
[06:51] <czr> sahil, I have to run unfortunately..
[06:51] <cables> nj786, cut it out
[06:51] <Jordan_U> xenos767, Use sudo ( sudo wget -c <URL> )
[06:51] <nj786> cables, cut what?
[06:51] <lockd> i just installed Ubuntu about 5 time, this may be my last shot
[06:51] <cables> nj786, asking specific people for help.
[06:51] <sahil> czr: nooo
[06:51] <neztiti> Shaddox: CAN I CHOSE after that where to go? gnome or kde
[06:51] <sahil> czr: i just put the pastebin together of all the configs
[06:51] <tritium> !repeat | nj786
[06:51] <ubotu> nj786: Don't feel ignored and repeat your question quickly; if nobody knows your answer, nobody will answer you. You can search https://help.ubuntu.com or http://wiki.ubuntu.com while you wait. Also see !patience
[06:51] <nj786> cables, wel you are intelligent so i thought u might know
[06:51] <jack_deltrino> How does wget -c http://www.domain.tld/file allow for HTTP session resuming?
[06:51] <czr> sahil, I still have to run, sry..
[06:51] <beford> neztiti, yes
[06:51] <sahil> czr:thanks neway maybe later
[06:51] <Shaddox> neztiti You can, if you don't have automatic login enabled.
[06:51] <Jordan_U> xenos767, Or rather, sudo wget -c URL path/to/save/to
[06:52] <nj786> cables, i appologize
[06:52] <Shaddox> neztiti: Just choose Options --> Choose Session...
[06:52] <lockd> if i apt-get install ubuntu-desktop, will there be any configuration i need to do by hand?
[06:52] <Shaddox> neztiti: At that point you can either choose GNOME, KDE, Run Xclient Script, Failsafe GNOME, or Failsafe Terminal, or even Xgl if you have that installed.
[06:52] <Mach3> i have a plantronics usb headset (which has its own inline sound hardware), and i also have speakers hooked up to my onboard sound.  The headset is recognized and works fine, however, i'm having trouble switching between speakers and headphones.  Sometimes i can get sound coming from where i want, but only by lots of trial and error, and i'm not sure of the correct way.  help?
[06:52] <jack_deltrino> Jordan_U, xenos767: By the way that should be sudo wget -c URL -O path/to/save/to
[06:52] <neztiti> Shaddox: do u know how to get dxr3 card to work with 6.10 ?
[06:52] <hydan> hehe, i need some help, i've been downloading files for ragnum online and anyway, the program is in Spanish, and I didn't understand everything i was doing, so now my screen is zoomed in at a ridiculous level. what are the steps to getting my resolution back to normal?
[06:53] <lockd> this excludes the things like PAM_keyring and modules I need to compile
[06:53] <Shaddox> neztiti: Ubuntu Edgy? You should upgrade to Feisty already!
[06:53] <fail> hydan, On the menu bar
[06:53] <Jordan_U> jack_deltrino, Thanks
[06:53] <neztiti> no i dont want
[06:53] <Shaddox> neztiti: Also, what kind of hardware is that?
[06:53] <hydan> fail...
[06:53] <fail> System > Preferences > Screen Resolution
[06:53] <matman> spikeb, so i did that on this notebook, it is a Pent M and the first line says Processor : 0 and other stuff that i don't understand.  is there a place i can go in the forums where i can get the knowledge to understand the output of that command?
[06:53] <lockd> Shaddox: can you upgrade to later version simply by changing repositories?
[06:53] <hydan> k
[06:53] <bruenig> !netsplit
[06:53] <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
[06:53] <fail> Sorry it took so long to type
[06:53] <neztiti> i cant register my em8300 card
[06:54] <xenos767> Jack_deltrino: I tried that and it just says that path/to/save/to is a directory
[06:54] <spikeb> matman: i could probably tell you, or you can look around in the forums and search for cpuinfo and see what it brings up
[06:54] <neztiti> Shaddox: hollywood plus card
[06:54] <hydan> much better, thank you fail :)
[06:54] <Shaddox> lockd: You should be able to use your Edge repositories, as Canonical usually releases updates to the next version using the current version's update system.
[06:54] <nicholaspaul> I have a weird networking problem. my other machine is wifi with a static IP, is online (browser works...) but I cant ping it, and it doesnt show up in samba anywhere.. What could be wrong?
[06:54] <Shaddox> neztiti: Is it Video, wireless, sound, what?
[06:54] <lockd> Shaddox: I am using Feisty right now
[06:54] <lockd> Shaddox: future ref
[06:54] <quaal> anyone know of a guide for installing doom3
[06:54] <neztiti> dvd card tvout
[06:54] <jack_deltrino> xenos767: >_< obviously replacing path/to/save/to.. with something appropriate
[06:54] <Shaddox> quaal: Try Cedega. www.transgaming.com I believe.
[06:54] <matman> spikeb if you know, that would be great!!
[06:55] <Shaddox> quaal: It's not free, though, and I am not sure where to find WineX from it's CVS.
[06:55] <lockd> everyone, make DEBs when you install something from source!
[06:55] <xenos767> jack_deltrino: yeah I did I really meant "/mount/home/xenos/Desktop
[06:55] <neztiti> Shaddox: its dvd card tvout - decoder card em 8300
[06:55] <fail> Oh wow
[06:55] <jack_deltrino> xenos767: /*mount*/home/... ?
[06:55] <fail> HUGE terminal bug
[06:55] <lockd> that is something you can't do in Gentoo
[06:55] <Shaddox> neztiti: Not sure, I am really only good with fixing video, and wireless cards.
[06:55] <fail> Where do I report bugs to/
[06:55] <Shaddox> neztiti: Sorry, comrade.
[06:56] <lockd> jack_deltrino: hey, i accidentally put boot in my media!
[06:56] <Mach3> i have a plantronics usb headset (which has its own inline sound hardware), and i also have speakers hooked up to my onboard sound.  The headset is recognized as a sound device and works fine, however, i'm having trouble switching between speakers and headphones.  Sometimes i can get sound coming from where i want, but only by lots of trial and error, and i'm not sure of the correct way.  help?
[06:56] <neztiti> Shaddox: nop man 10000 thanx
[06:56] <xenos767> jack_deltrino: im using a live CD to install a file to my disk
[06:56] <jack_deltrino> I meant, not /mnt/?
[06:56] <lockd> jack_deltrino: filled the boot directory and I was trying to fix it by using the boot partition
[06:56] <jack_deltrino> xenos767: If you want to dump to your "Desktop" directory, try wget -c URL /mnt/home/xenos/Desktop/whatever.file.type.extension
[06:57] <Jordan_U> jack_deltrino, I told him to mount it to /mountpoint
[06:57] <jack_deltrino> Jordan_U: Ah, I wasn't around for that.
[06:57] <Shaddox> Anyone happen to know a thing about qmail? I'm having trouble setting mine up.
[06:57] <lockd> anyone know what special setup I need to get Ubuntu Desktop configuration, if any?
[06:57] <jack_deltrino> Shaddox: If you don't get any help here, you might want to try #qmail
[06:57] <lockd> I selected no options in that stage of install
[06:58] <Shaddox> jack_deltrino: Tried there first, 100% unresponsive.
[06:58] <nicholaspaul> Q: how can i increase screen resolution? the applet only gives me 640x480 and 800x600, even tho 1024x768 is in xorg.conf. Is it likely to be the video card (its a 6Mb Intel)
[06:58] <tritium> fail: on launchpad.  What do you think is a bug?
[06:58] <lockd> i want to know if apt'ing ubuntu-desktop is a waste of my time
[06:58] <Shaddox> lockd: Uh, you mean you want to install the Ubuntu desktop interface on Kubuntu/Xubuntu?
[06:58] <jack_deltrino> Shaddox: Figured so. The MTA channels are usually so-so.
[06:58] <tritium> !resolution > nicholaspaul
[06:58] <Shaddox> jack_deltrino: I used "life with qmail" to install, but i seem to have botched the installation at some step.
[06:58] <lockd> Shaddox: no, on no selections - well I may have selected DNS because I knew it wasn't going to install much
[06:59] <Shaddox> lockd: Ubuntu, or Ubuntu-Server?
[06:59] <lockd> Shaddox: there is no desktop manager, no nothing - will I have to set this up?
[06:59] <lockd> Shaddox: probably server
[06:59] <Shaddox> lockd: Oh! Yes, Server.
[06:59] <Mach3> how do i switch between audio devices in kubuntu?
[06:59] <Shaddox> lockd: I have a dedicated box myself, so I can DEFINATELY help.
[07:00] <nicholaspaul> thx tritium
[07:00] <quaal> Shaddox, was hoping i could do with wine or something.. thanks i'll check it out
[07:00] <neztiti> Shaddox:  sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop this 4 XFCE ???
[07:00] <lockd> Shaddox: no, I selected server because I wanted to make sure my bootloader was working, without wasting a lot of install time
[07:00] <Shaddox> neztiti: Correct.
[07:00] <spikeb> neztiti: yes
[07:00] <Shaddox> quaal: Wine won't work with -everything- like WineX/Cedega will.
[07:00] <neztiti> thanx guys
[07:00] <lockd> Shaddox: i simply want to know whether i can install ubuntu-desktop without inordinate struggle
[07:00] <spikeb> cedega doesnt work with everything either
[07:00] <neztiti> nice guys
[07:00] <Shaddox> quaal: Half-Life on Steam is but one example of things that won't work. I've only tested Starcraft to work fully with regular Wine.
[07:00] <lockd> Shaddox: i.e. it better not be harder than Gentoo
[07:00] <lz> hELLO
[07:01] <Shaddox> lockd: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
[07:01] <lz> Hello!
[07:01] <lz> everyone
[07:01] <quaal> Shaddox, i installed steam and halflife without a hitch on wine
[07:01] <lockd> Shaddox: and gdm gets pulled in, all the inits are changed? cool!
[07:01] <Shaddox> lockd: After that, you can set GDM to start on boot, or leave it alone and run GDM manually, like me.
[07:01] <Jordan_U> Shaddox, Ahh, less in general works with Cediga than wine, certainly not "everything"
[07:01] <Mathdiver> hello everybody
[07:01] <Shaddox> lockd: I only run GDM on my server when I need to use XDMCP to do something I can't do in commandline/bash.
[07:01] <Jay1> I am having troubles getting Xserver to work when I boot Ubuntu from a CD-ROM.
[07:02] <lockd> Shaddox: yeah, well this is actually a laptop
[07:02] <Mathdiver> !ndiswrapper
[07:02] <Jordan_U> Jay, Are you booted to the LiveCD now?
[07:02] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[07:02] <fail> Anyone here know if the wiimote suffers the same rapid on/off bug of USB joysticks?
[07:02] <lockd> Shaddox: dns is kinda necessary though, as /somebody/ insists on windows machines
[07:02] <Jay1> no
[07:02] <Shaddox> lockd: Really?
[07:02] <Shaddox> lockd: I run just plain Ubuntu on my laptop without too much trouble.
[07:02] <Jay1> All I get is a black command line when I boot Ubuntu because Xserver won't start
[07:02] <Shaddox> lockd: Avoid Broadcom wireless cards, that's the hard part.
[07:03] <lockd> Shaddox: well, i have to be able to use windows host names
[07:03] <Shaddox> lockd: I even have full connectivity to the one windows PC in my network, AND all linux machines. ^^
[07:03] <lockd> Shaddox: BCMWL, oww
[07:03] <bulmer> Jay1: select a lower resolution perhaps?
[07:03] <Shaddox> lockd: Yeah, I use bcmwl5.
[07:03] <anathematic> how do i format a drive in console?
[07:03] <Jay1> how?
[07:03] <lockd> Shaddox: intel pro wireless abg3945 is pretty bad
[07:04] <Shaddox> lockd: I also had to completely set up powernowd, just to keep my system from overheating.
[07:04] <lockd> Shaddox: well it's proprietary, and requires a daemon running constantly
[07:04] <Jordan_U> Jay, When you get there again press ctrl+alt+F1 to get to a terminal and then run this command and choose "vesa" when asked what driver to use: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh && sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[07:04] <lockd> Shaddox: not just a little firmware, or a wrapped driver
[07:04] <Jay1> okay.
[07:04] <Shaddox> lockd: Yeah, yeah, I'm avoiding anything Intel that isn't a processor, to be honest. I don't trust them fo anything else.
[07:04] <lockd> Shaddox: i've always been able to wrap broadcom drivers in their windows shells
[07:04] <Jay1> I've used "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and then "startx" after that but it doesn't work.
[07:05] <lockd> Shaddox: i barely trust them for processors
[07:05] <lockd> Shaddox: there is a reason they have to release those specs - they want people to code assembly (or write compilers)
[07:05] <Jordan_U> lockd, If it's a broadcom card be sure to recommend installing bcm43xx-fwcutter instead of NDIS
[07:05] <Shaddox> lockd: Yeah, my laptop is an AMD, and I'm probably going to use a dual-core AMD in the new gaming rig I'm building [it's going to be windows, i need 100% functioni on my gaming rig] 
[07:06] <lockd> Jordan_U: it depends on which OS - linux yeah I use fwcutter
[07:06] <nicholaspaul> I have a weird networking problem. my other machine is wifi with a static IP, is online (browser works...) but I cant ping it, and it doesnt show up in samba anywhere.. What could be wrong?
[07:06] <lockd> Jordan_U: BSDs I have never seen a better option than ndis
[07:06] <Jordan_U> lockd, It's unfortunate that bcm43xx is GPL'd :(
[07:07] <neztiti> Shaddox: wow no audeo here with me
[07:08] <lockd> Jordan_U: how so?
[07:08] <illriginal> Hey guys, how do I make myself root so that I'm able to access my filesystem read/write
[07:08] <anathematic> where do i access harddrive tools to format drives and make partitions etc?
[07:08] <neztiti> guys no audio with ubuntu 6.10 any help???
[07:08] <nicholaspaul> illriginal: use 'sudo' before each command
[07:08] <neztiti> i cant believe
[07:08] <tome1> hey all
[07:09] <Jordan_U> lockd, All the work they did reverse engineering It can't be used in BSD's
[07:09] <RoAkSoAx> illriginal, use 'sudo' before commands or do: sudo -i that is like su -
[07:09] <illriginal> nicholeaspaul, I need to copy a folder into an ICON folder, and I'd much rather not use command lines to copy files
[07:09] <lockd> Jordan_U: didn't think GPL stuff couldn't be added to bsd
[07:09] <tritium> !sudo > illriginal
[07:09] <neztiti> guys no audio with ubuntu 6.10 any help???
[07:09] <spikeb> Jordan_U: yes it can be used, as documentation.
[07:10] <lockd> Jordan_U: there is actually a driver for my network card (ipw3945) called wpi in openbsd
[07:10] <nicholaspaul> illriginal: if you type the first couple of letters of a nickname and hit TAB you'll get the rest, for free:) *and spelled correctly ;)
[07:10] <lockd> Jordan_U: this was quite reverse engineered, "instrumented" though, no decompiling
[07:10] <Mach3> how do i change the default audio output device in kubuntu fiesty?  (ie, switch sound output from my speakers to my usb headset, and vice versa)
[07:10] <neztiti> lsmod
[07:10] <Jordan_U> spikeb, Nope, from what I have heard they want BSD developers to blackbox reverse engineer their reverse engineered drivers
[07:10] <illriginal> I just want to have the permission to do anything to my computer (-.-)
[07:11] <k1gwb> nicholaspaul: hey thanks for that, haha. For those of who never used IRC before switching to ubuntu/gaim/pidgin, thatw as helpful ;)
[07:11] <nicholaspaul> k1gwb: np !!!
[07:11] <spikeb> any GPLed code can be used for documentation for code under any license.
[07:11] <illriginal> I have nothing to worry about with security, no one can even get passed my BIOS password, my start up password, much less my login name and password :D
[07:11] <nicholaspaul> illriginal: you probably don't . Mucking with permissions can be really messy. Using sudo and learning a command or two is WAY safer
[07:12] <lockd> nicholaspaul: is it a good or bad idea to change permissions on /dev/sda1 which is Windows, or to run the whole shebang as root?
[07:12] <tom343> Is there any extremely easy to set up IRC bots that can do logging for Ubuntu?
[07:12] <lockd> nicholaspaul: (or sudo'd, which still runs it as root though)
[07:12] <m0u5e> firestarter sucks... it wont let me have 2 co current connections :(
[07:12] <cables> illriginal, that would be defeating one of the main security features of Linux. If YOU can do anything on your computer, a hacker can do anything on your computer.
[07:12] <illriginal> :\ I just want to add this folder of icons onto my filesystem..
[07:13] <illriginal> i don't know how to add a whole folder or copy a whole folder and have it sent to the filesystem
[07:13] <illriginal> im having a hard time
[07:13] <lockd> cables: illriginal: i have never had serious trouble on Windows following similar procedure, but Linux makes it easier
[07:13] <tritium> illriginal: you can easily do what you want
[07:13] <Jordan_U> illriginal, Your BIOS password can be bypassed by using the recovery password most BIOS's have, then your GRUB pass with a grub floppy and your login using single user mode :)
[07:13] <nicholaspaul> lockd: personally, i would leave system folders alone. If its just pics, mp3s, whatever, then go nuts.
[07:13] <tome1> hi all
[07:13] <illriginal> meh they couldn't get passed my start up password :P
[07:14] <cables> illriginal, what do you mean by onto your filesystem?
[07:14] <Jordan_U> illriginal, What do you mean by "startup password" ?
[07:14] <lockd> nicholaspaul: wondering which is less secure though
[07:14] <Defient> second lfie sux
[07:14] <illriginal> startup as in... you need to put a password in before you can even type in the login name and password to log into x
[07:14] <lockd> nicholaspaul: of course if it was available to say group windows, even a rogue web site or script could kill it
[07:14] <Defient> second life sux
[07:14] <illriginal> cables... hold on
[07:14] <Mach3> how do i change the default audio output device in kubuntu fiesty?  (ie, switch sound output from my speakers to my usb headset, and vice versa)
[07:15] <illriginal> /usr/share/icons
[07:15] <cables> Mach3, System>Preferences>Sound
[07:15] <Shaddox> Defient, leave
[07:15] <nicholaspaul> lockd: i'm not sure, sorry. a little out of my league :S
[07:15] <illriginal> ^ i need my folder in that folder
[07:15] <Shaddox> This isn't a room to flame applications
[07:15] <tritium> Shaddox: easy there
[07:15] <cables> illriginal, that's really easy. Hit alt-f2 and type "gksudo nautilus /usr/share/icons" :)
[07:15] <Shaddox> alright, alright, but ive heard a lot more application flaming around here lately and i don't like it.
[07:15] <illriginal> where do i hit alt f2?
[07:15] <Defient> ignore it
[07:16] <cables> illriginal, on your keyboard.
[07:16] <Jordan_U> illriginal, Anywhere :)
[07:16] <m0u5e> anyone know a better firewall program that supports two connections at the same time (i.e. wireless and wired)?
[07:16] <illriginal> oh
[07:16] <cables> Jordan_U, ha, you got that one :)
[07:16] <illriginal> tht's for the terminal
[07:16] <lockd> nicholaspaul: wait, i'll just make it su as "windows" user, and have the block device chowned to said user
[07:16] <tritium> Shaddox: it's not against the Code of Conduct.
[07:16] <illriginal> heh... i need a hard copy of linux manual...
[07:16] <cables> m0u5e, Linux supports that but I don't know how to do it...
[07:16] <tritium> (although, it borders on offtopic, but passing comments are okay)
[07:16] <Shaddox> yeah yeah
[07:16] <Defient> you got owned by freedom of speech
[07:16] <anathematic> what's a program to make partitions/manage my harddrives on ubuntu? :)
[07:17] <cables> illriginal, it has nothing to do with the terminal. Hit alt-f2 and just type this: < gksudo gedit /usr/share/icons >
[07:17] <cables> anathematic, put in an Ubuntu LiveCD, start up System>Administration>GNOME Partition Editor
[07:17] <wepeel> hi all. silly question, but can I use a screensaver as a desktop background?
[07:17] <anathematic> cables: thank you i'l do it now =)
[07:19] <illriginal> thank you Cables.. that's all I really needed
[07:19] <cables> illriginal, no problem.
[07:19] <Jordan_U> wepeel, With Compiz / Beryl I know that you can, without them you might be able to
[07:19] <illriginal> brb
[07:19] <wepeel> Jordan_U: sorry, what's Compiz/Beryl?
[07:19] <lockd> wepeel: eye-candy window borders 'n stuff
[07:19] <wepeel> thanks lockd.
[07:19] <lockd> wepeel: requires rather high end video card
[07:19] <cables> lockd, I don't think that's what he's looking for
[07:19] <cables> wepeel, I know there's something that can do it, but I'm blanking on the name
[07:19] <MsHandle> Hello, can someone tell me how to write foreign characters? Letters with "accent" marks?
[07:20] <cables> lockd, it really doesn't, my graphics card is pretty crappy and it runs just fine. Beryl is not Vista Aero :)
[07:20] <shiester_miester> hey everyone
[07:20] <cables> MsHandle, I'm not sure what the keyboard shortcuts are, but you can go to Applications>Accessories>Character Map
[07:20] <lockd> cables: high end aka something that actually has accelerated graphics
[07:20] <shiester_miester> i just started up and suddenly my NTFS drives have disappeared?
[07:21] <lockd> cables: actually supported, that is
[07:21] <lockd> shiester_miester: ouch
[07:21] <shiester_miester> i remember hearing that there were some problems with the new kernel
[07:21] <cables> shiester_miester, it has to do with the recent kernel update.
[07:21] <shiester_miester> yeah i thought as much
[07:21] <MsHandle> Ah yes. The character map method is very cumbersome. I figured it out once for keyboard shortcuts but now i've forgotten again.
[07:21] <k1gwb> MsHandle: you can set a "compose" key which you then hit and type e' for example and get the e accent egue...or a^ to get the a circonflex, etc
[07:21] <HERONGUOIDEP> dis me
[07:21] <lockd> which kernels are affected?
[07:21] <cables> shiester_miester, just open the NTFS Configuration program again, and set a new mount point.
[07:21] <HERONGUOIDEP> co hack ko
[07:21] <shiester_miester> i mean theyre obviously still there since i was using them about 5 minutes ago in windows xp, but ubuntu is refusing to mount them
[07:22] <wepeel> well, i have compiz now, but I'm not finding beryl on apt get
[07:22] <shiester_miester> cables, which program is that?  the only one i can think of is the NTFS write support configuration tool
[07:22] <cables> shiester_miester, just run your NTFS Configuration Tool again, and set a new mount point for it
[07:22] <cables> shiester_miester, yeah, that's what I'm talking about
[07:22] <tom343> Is there any extremely easy to set up IRC bots that can do logging for Ubuntu?
[07:23] <shiester_miester> cables, it has two buttons "enable NTFS write support for internal device" and one for external device.  thats all
[07:23] <shiester_miester> nothing to do with mounting
[07:23] <cables> shiester_miester, oh, hold on a sec
[07:23] <cables> shiester_miester, close that and open a terminal
[07:23] <MsHandle> Thank you for the "compose" clue.
[07:23] <shiester_miester> also for some reason emerald no longer appears to be running :/
[07:24] <cables> shiester_miester, are you in a terminal?
[07:24] <shiester_miester> or at least the window decorations are not displaying.  but thats less important
[07:24] <shiester_miester> cables, yes
[07:24] <tom343> Has anyone ever set up an IRC bot in Ubuntu?
[07:24] <cables> shiester_miester, first of all, if you've got Beryl Manager in your tray, you can right click and choose another Window Decorator
[07:24] <levander> Is there any replacement for F-Spot available?  That program really leaves a lot to be desired.
[07:24] <cables> levander, you can always install Picasa
[07:25] <SF17> Grr, I lost the game
[07:25] <levander> cables: that's a bitch to do isn't it?
[07:25] <shiester_miester> wow, clicking "reload window decorator" fixed it straight away....lol
[07:25] <cables> levander, no way! just go to the site, and you can download a .deb. Double click it, and it'll install just fine.
[07:25] <shiester_miester> levander, whats f-spot?
[07:25] <cables> shiester_miester, now put this into the terminal: < sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak >
[07:25] <levander> cables: oh, i think you had to install WINE for it, no?
[07:25] <MsHandle> Thank you.
[07:26] <cables> levander, Wine is built into the Linux version of it.
[07:26] <levander> shiester_miester: it's like iPhoto, or Picasa for Linux.  Only it's really lacking with some features.
[07:26] <cables> levander, they basically package the Windows version with a cut-down version of Wine, and pack that all into a Linux package.
[07:26] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[07:26] <levander> cables: hmmmm, not sure if i wanna install WINE...
[07:26] <cables> shiester_miester, so have you done that command?
[07:26] <shiester_miester> yup
[07:26] <lockd> levander: it's built in
[07:26] <cables> levander, it doesn't install Wine in full
[07:26] <lockd> cables: can one run picasa using full Wine?
[07:27] <cables> levander, it just has certain components of it required to run Picasa. It's completely seemless
[07:27] <levander> cables: so, if i install full-blown WINE separately, this WINE-for-Picasa won't interfere?
[07:27] <shiester_miester> i dont get the point of photo library software...i can organise my photos perfectly fine using a filesystem in folders etc...
[07:27] <cables> levander, not at all
[07:27] <lockd> cables: oh right, just the win version
[07:27] <shiester_miester> and they are all displayed as little thumbnails anyway
[07:27] <cables> shiester_miester, now hit alt-f2 and do < gksudo gedit /etc/fstab >
[07:27] <Joe_CoT> hey, is there any good disk diagnostic program for linux? I'm getting intermittent "hard drive not ready for command" errors
[07:27] <levander> cables: is Picasa integrated with Gimp at all?  E.g., can I at least click on a Picasa button, and open the current image in gimp?
[07:27] <shiester_miester> cables, done
[07:27] <cables> levander, probably not...
[07:27] <shiester_miester> obviously opened the fstab file
[07:28] <cables> shiester_miester, find the line that corresponds to your Windows drive
[07:28] <levander> Joe_CoT: like, what kinda Windows diagnostic would you use for that?
[07:28] <shiester_miester> yep
[07:28] <levander> Joe_CoT: how important is the data on this hard drive?
[07:28] <spikeb> picasa linux = not good.
[07:28] <cables> shiester_miester, put a # at the beginning of the line
[07:28] <cables> spikeb, it's no worse than the Windows version
[07:28] <levander> spikeb: that's what i'm guessing...
[07:28] <nicholaspaul> spikeb: whats wrong with picasa linux?
[07:28] <lockd> are there any photo management programs, besides picasa and f-spot?
[07:28] <spikeb> cables: yes it is. only slightly though.
[07:28] <cables> levander, it's identical to the Windows version. It's not worse than the Windows version, it's just generally crappy.
[07:29] <levander> Joe_CoT: the approach varies as to how much time/money you're going to lose if you lose that disk
[07:29] <spikeb> which doesnt say much for picasa as a whole :)
[07:29] <shiester_miester> you mean JUST the one for the drive that has windows on it, right?  i have 2 NTFS partitions, one has windows, neither of them are mounted atm
[07:29] <Joe_CoT> levander: i just got back from backing it all up in mc before fixing the corrupted nautilus file. I'm moreso concerned with whether the disk is going to die
[07:29] <shiester_miester> should i comment out both of them?
[07:29] <spikeb> i would explain, but i dont feel like flaming.
[07:29] <levander> cables: nah, Picasa on Windows is pretty good, not great, but for basic stuff, and photo browser, it's really good
[07:29] <cables> shiester_miester, you should comment both out if you want to add them back in.
[07:29] <shiester_miester> ok
[07:29] <cerealkiller219> what's a good c++ IDE?
[07:29] <levander> Joe_CoT: you have to download a disk diagnostic from the manufacturer (unless it's a DELL, is it a DELL?)
[07:29] <cables> levander, if you like Picasa on Windows, you shouldn't find too many differences on Linux.
[07:30] <misfit> Hello everybody
[07:30] <shiester_miester> theres 2 more here that i havent seen before :/ sda7 and sda6.  i wonder what they are for?
[07:30] <lockd> cerealkiller219: nano!
[07:30] <cables> shiester_miester, i'd leave them alone :)
[07:30] <levander> cables: It's not that I'm crazy about it, it's just suit quite a few needs.
[07:30] <shiester_miester> oh well
[07:30] <shiester_miester> yeah
[07:30] <levander> cables: What do you use?
[07:30] <Mathdiver> hello. can you give me an help to know wich package i have to download from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper?highlight=%28WifiDocs%2FDriver%29? i am running ubuntu feisty fawn
[07:30] <cables> levander, f-spot... what are you looking for that f-spot doesn't do?
[07:30] <shiester_miester> ok, ive saved that file, im guessing that i need to reboot or something?
[07:30] <cables> shiester_miester, no
[07:30] <misfit> Can anyone help me with an issue I'm having with the applet panel?  I'm using Ubuntu Feisty
[07:30] <cables> shiester_miester, in a terminal, do < sudo mount -a >
[07:31] <cerealkiller219> lockd: ill check it out :)
[07:31] <shiester_miester> done
[07:31] <Adross> i am trying to vnc into another network computer and start an xfce session. For some reason, logging in only yields a gray screen and an x cursor. Thoughts?
[07:31] <cables> shiester_miester, then open the NTFS Configuration Tool and it should "find" the NTFS drives
[07:31] <shiester_miester> ah! woderful
[07:31] <lockd> cerealkiller219: seriously, dev-c++ is good but very very difficult to run in Linux
[07:31] <cables> shiester_miester, did it?
[07:31] <levander> cables: I use RAW images, and I can't rotate them left or right.  It's a real pain.  Plus, someone was telling me that if you click on "Delete File from Disk" it doesn't delete the thumbnail for the image.  And, there's no way to get rid of the thumbnail.  Those are the first two things that come to mind
[07:32] <notfail> There
[07:32] <notfail> No more false beeps
[07:32] <shiester_miester> what am i supposed to name the mount points :/ it wont let me use what they used to be3
[07:32] <shiester_miester> *be
[07:32] <KevinOman> misfit what's the applet panel
[07:32] <cables> levander, all your thumbnails are cached in ~/.thumbnails... they're only a few kb each
[07:32] <shiester_miester> it says "/media/sda5 is already in use. please choose another location"
[07:32] <cables> shiester_miester, close it off, don't change anything!
[07:32] <cerealkiller219> lockd: hahah wow im retarted
[07:32] <shiester_miester> ooooh
[07:32] <levander> cables: I don't mind opening up in Gimp for RAW images for photo-by-photo editing, but not being able to click on a bunch of portrait oriented images and have them auto-swivel is a real huge pain.
[07:32] <notfail> So guys I am having troubles installing cwiid
[07:33] <cerealkiller219> lockd: I didn't realize what "nano" was at first :P
[07:33] <cables> shiester_miester, lol
[07:33] <notfail> Lemme post my terminal log
[07:33] <shiester_miester> so just open it, then cancel? :/
[07:33] <levander> cables: it's not the file size, it's that I don't want to look at them if they're deleted.
[07:33] <lockd> cerealkiller219: hehe
[07:33] <cables> shiester_miester, now alt-f2 and do < gksudo nautilus /media >
[07:33] <misfit> Can anyone help me with a small issue?  I'm new to Linux.
[07:33] <cables> shiester_miester, just don't make any changes in the ntfs thing
[07:33] <purpzey> !anyone | misfit
[07:33] <ubotu> misfit: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:33] <cables> levander, it'll delete them from f-spot
[07:33] <cerealkiller219> lockd: i have anjuta, but I dont like it
[07:33] <shiester_miester> yes?
[07:33] <cables> levander, it doesn't keep the thumbnail in the browser
[07:33] <KevinOman> misfit, what is the applt panel......
[07:33] <cables> shiester_miester, delete the old mount points of the drivers
[07:33] <cables> shiester_miester, *drives
[07:33] <shiester_miester> ok
[07:34] <levander> cables: I really wish someone would develop a photo manager that were more integrated with the Gimp.  E.g., used the Gimp image rendering algorithms directly.
[07:34] <cerealkiller219> lockd: I guess I'm forced to use nano and g++, :)
[07:34] <misfit> good call purpzeye and ubotu, here goes...
[07:34] <cables> shiester_miester, now do the ntfs thing again
[07:34] <notfail> http://pastebin.ca/524854 <-- I am trying to install cwiid from source
[07:34] <shiester_miester> ok
[07:34] <lockd> cerealkiller219: even emacs is better
[07:34] <notfail> And when I do ./configure
[07:34] <chris-a> okay need some unistalltion help
[07:34] <notfail> It ends with "configure: error: bluetooth library not found"
[07:34] <shiester_miester> cables, and set them back to how they were?
[07:34] <chris-a>  i keep getting a segment error in mozilla-firefox
[07:34] <KevinOman> misfit: did you hear me?
[07:34] <cables> shiester_miester, sure, if you want... I prefer more descriptive mount names :)
[07:34] <misfit> I'm using Ubuntu Feisty, latest version.  When I turned on my computer, it suddenly brought up some dialogue boxes.
[07:34] <chris-a>  ran apt-get remove mozilla-firefox
[07:34] <notfail> I've already did sudo apt-get install bluetooth
[07:34] <Watermelon2> hmm can anyone help me with a tls1.5 compile problem under ubuntu 6.10 edgy 64bit?
[07:34] <shiester_miester> yeah but ive already set up those paths for heaps of other programs
[07:34] <lockd> cerealkiller219: I personally use vim, but I really would like a modal id
[07:35] <cables> shiester_miester, and they're not sda any more, so... yeah, it's sorta weird to mount them as such
[07:35] <shiester_miester> like my music library, games in wine, file shares etc
[07:35] <levander> cables: I have thumbnails in my browser now where I've deleted the file.  I didn't notice it until I was talking to someone playing around with F-Spot today.
[07:35] <ben_xarch> cerealkiller219, check out kdevelop
[07:35] <cables> shiester_miester, ok, so use them again
[07:35] <misfit> They asked me if I wanted to delete some applets, and I said yes to all the boxes.
[07:35] <chris-a>  and its still there and functional.   so how do i uninstall something
[07:35] <cerealkiller219> lockd: Yeah, I'm too used to window UI
[07:35] <levander> cables: You're shooting in JPEG?
[07:35] <notfail> I've also tried searching on google for the problem
[07:35] <cerealkiller219> alright
[07:35] <cables> levander, you should report a bug... I don't notice that, though.
[07:35] <notfail> And I got one result
[07:35] <KevinOman> MISFIT WHAT APPLETS!
[07:35] <lockd> cerealkiller219: dev-c++ is open source, but it's written in delphi or something
[07:35] <notfail> It didn't help at all
[07:35] <KevinOman> lol
[07:35] <shiester_miester> $LogFile indicates unclean shutdown (0, 0)
[07:35] <cables> levander, so it's only with RAW files?
[07:35] <lockd> cerealkiller219: not as horrible as visual basic, but close
[07:35] <shiester_miester> Failed to mount '/dev/sda5': Operation not supported
[07:35] <misfit> Then when I looked at the right hand top corner, my date/time, volume controls were missing.
[07:35] <shiester_miester> Mount is denied because NTFS logfile is unclean.
[07:35] <cerealkiller219> heh:P
[07:35] <shiester_miester> dammit
[07:36] <cables> shiester_miester, no idea there...
[07:36] <shiester_miester> brb, reboot windows and shut it down properly
[07:36] <cables> shiester_miester, good idea
[07:36] <levander> cables: no, it's only RAW files that it can't rotate, or edit.  They were telling me the main F-Spot developer stopped shooting in RAW and started in JPEG because of how F-Spot works.  That's really sucky.
[07:36] <cables> shiester_miester, also, try running a disk check in windows
[07:36] <shiester_miester> last time i used windows it crashed for no reason (one of the reasons that drove me to use ubuntu in the first place)
[07:36] <cables> levander, report a bug i guess... that's definitely abnormal behavior
[07:36] <misfit> The top panel calls those date/time and other features applets.
[07:36] <levander> cables: I'm not giving up on F-Spot just yet.  But, I'm definitely unhappy with quite a few things.
[07:36] <shiester_miester> so i was like "screw this" so i booted in ubuntu, and lo and behold my ntfs partitions were no longer available
[07:36] <chris-a> unistall question
[07:36] <levander> cables: Have you ever reported a bug?  Are they responsive?
[07:37] <cables> levander, like I said, you should report a bug so it can get fixed faster
[07:37] <cables> levander, if no one reported bugs, the OS would stagnate
[07:37] <gradin> anybody know why samba automounts in fstab arent working?
[07:37] <KevinOman> misfit try right clicking on the panel and click add to panel
[07:37] <cables> levander, it depends on the package... I've reported tons of bugs, but never in F-Spot
[07:37] <cables> levander, they're not gonna fix it in one day, but hopefully they'll fix it in a later version.
[07:37] <shiester_miester> cables, brb ill reboot windows, then restart and boot into ubuntu and then come back
[07:37] <cables> gradin, make sure the other computer is on :)
[07:38] <chris-a> can any one help me with an install?
[07:38] <chris-a> uninstall sorry
[07:38] <cables> !anyone | chris-a
[07:38] <ubotu> chris-a: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:38] <levander> cables: I'm wondering how much they're concerned about portability in their decisions not to use gimp libraries.  You know, that whole thing about Novell doing applications is to promote their Mono platform.   I'm wondering if they're decision not to use Gimp has to do with them wanting to show off how easily they can move the applicatons they write from Linux to Windows...
[07:38] <gradin> cables: it is, meaning i can connect to the other server running a mount -t smbfs //<servername>/sharename
[07:38] <lockd> does checkinstall guarantee a good way to uninstall something?
[07:38] <misfit> @KevinOman: I tried that, and I managed to get a couple of those "applets" back, but now when I start some programs that minimize to the applet section (like amarok) I don't see the amarok Icon.
[07:38] <levander> cables: just so long as they respond in a few months, i hate it when i spend time doing bug reports and i'm ignored, pisses me off
[07:39] <gradin> cables: but for some freaking reason editing the /etc/fstab doesn't allow the mapping to take...
[07:39] <KevinOman> misfit isn't amarok a kubuntu app?
[07:39] <chris-a> cables:  need to uninstall mozzilla-firefox to fix an error and apt-get remove isn't doing it
[07:39] <KevinOman> misfit I don't know I don't use it
[07:39] <levander> cables: Oh, I know Ubuntu responds.  I was talking about the F-Spot developers.  That's where I'd report that bug.
[07:39] <chris-a> mozilla even
[07:39] <misfit> It runs well on ubuntu, I'm using it right now.
[07:39] <dawn_chorus> lockd, if you can create a deb, then apt will be able to remove it more cleanly than if you don't.
[07:39] <notfail> Better yet
[07:39] <lockd> dawn_chorus: good
[07:39] <cables> levander, you're jumping a little too far ahead there... I don't think they're missing links to GIMP because of their ulterior Windows-loving motives
[07:39] <notfail> Anyone got a guide to installing WMD on Ubuntu 7.04
[07:39] <Tom47> chris-a try usinf synaptic and "complete removal"
[07:40] <lockd> dawn_chorus: people in Gentoo circles were saying how easy it is to make an ebuild.. }:=8P
[07:40] <levander> cables: It's not Windows-loving motives.  It's Mono-loving motives.  If it's not that, why wouldn't they use more gimp libraries?
[07:40] <cables> gradin, search for Windows on http://wiki.ubuntu.com, find the thing about permanently mounting Windows shares, and scroll to the troubleshooting section. That helped me.
[07:40] <KevinOman> misfit did you add the "window list" applet?
[07:40] <misfit> Kevin, you know how some programs minimize into the panel, but others minimize into icons near the date/time?  Well, those icons don't  appear anymore, so when I minimize a program I know it's running for sure, but I can't see it anymore.
[07:40] <levander> And, of course they have Mono-loving motives, it's their platform, and they're a business.
[07:40] <chris-a> Tom47:  thanks i was wondering if thats what i needed to do.   this channel rocks
[07:41] <chris-a>  muchas garcias im outty
[07:41] <KevinOman> misfit isn't that the notification area applet?
[07:41] <levander> cables: If they used the gimp libraries for rendering, you would be able to edit RAW.
[07:41] <cables> levander, what do you mean by GIMP libraries? Perhaps they just didn't like their implementation, or they preferred other systems... but I still don't know what exactly you're referring to when you say "gimp libraries"
[07:41] <xoss> im using konv on kubuntu what's the irc client for ubuntu?
[07:41] <Tom47> chris-a cannot gurantee it given your lack of success but if it doesn't work there then you have a serious question i suspect :)
[07:41] <cables> xoss, xchat
[07:41] <levander> cables: like the gimp libraries for rendering/edit images
[07:41] <gyl> Hello, how much money (I want to pay ..somebody )is to  configure VPN server on a linux server , such that I can connect to it via windows vpn client ? :)
[07:41] <xoss> ok thanks cables
[07:41] <misfit> I believe so, Kevin, it's the upper-right most part of the taskbar by default.
[07:42] <dawn_chorus> lockd, from what i understand, it's easier than repackaging a deb.  or whatever.
[07:42] <cables> levander, I don't know that GIMP HAS external APIs/libraries for doing that...
[07:42] <lockd> dawn_chorus: checkinstall seems to make a deb package just fine
[07:42] <KevinOman> misfit, did you add the "notification area" applet? and pull it next to the time and date?
[07:42] <misfit> Let me see if it's there, what's it for?
[07:43] <dawn_chorus> lockd, yes. a program that automated the whole thing would be cool.  genbuntu.  :)
[07:43] <lockd> dawn_chorus: automated gentoo? I think the problem is with slothfulness of compiling
[07:43] <KevinOman> misfit its where "taskttray" icons go
[07:44] <misfit> My God, it worked!  Thanks man, you're a genius.
[07:44] <lockd> dawn_chorus: you can run gentoo through the automated graphical installer - but it still can take days
[07:44] <tritium> lockd, dawn_chorus: any package can be built from source easily with apt tools
[07:44] <KevinOman> :) glad I could help misfit
[07:44] <dawn_chorus> lockd, yeah. you -can- work portage with binaries, though. so it's no excuse.
[07:44] <otero> Can I run KDE and gnome at the same time?
[07:44] <dawn_chorus> wait a minute ... this is ubuntu support.
[07:44] <lockd> dawn_chorus: well, you -can- work with apt and sources, what tritium said
[07:44] <dawn_chorus> otero, yeah.
[07:44] <cables> otero, not at the same time, but you can have it so that you can choose between them when you log in.
[07:44] <me22> Is there a way to get the very new nvidia driver in the package manager? ( I have an 8600 so I really do need it )
[07:44] <KevinOman> I had to go through the same thing when I deleted my panel, I had to create a new one from scratch
[07:44] <dawn_chorus> lockd, right. so?
[07:45] <otero> cables, I can install it right from synaptic?
[07:45] <misfit> One more thing Kevin... I miss the ctrl-alt-delete feature in windows, does Linux have anything similar?
[07:45] <artzneo> hola. algun canal ubuntu en espaol gracias
[07:45] <me22> misfit: gnome-system-manager
[07:45] <cables> otero, actually, I'd recommend doing it from the terminal, just because when you remove it it'll take all its crap with it using Aptitude.
[07:45] <Tom47> !es
[07:45] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[07:46] <cables> otero, use the command: < sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop > to install the Kubuntu stuff
[07:46] <artzneo> /joint #ubuntu-es
[07:46] <artzneo> ups jeje
[07:46] <misfit> @Me22, I've used the system manager but does it have a keyboard shortcut to bring it up?
[07:46] <otero> ok
[07:46] <KevinOman> misfit system>administration>system manager
[07:46] <KevinOman> oh I don't know if there's a shortcut
[07:47] <KevinOman> misfit you could create a launcher on your panel
[07:47] <misfit> if a program freezes, I don't want to ctrl-alt-backspace, it restarts everything...
[07:47] <cables> Automatix had a way to set ctrl-alt-delete to open it, but I don't know how it achieved it, and I'm not using Automatix.
[07:47] <otero> cables, do I want to install kubuntu-desktop or just KDE?
[07:47] <cables> misfit, just hit the X button, it'll come up with a force-quit dialog
[07:47] <dawn_chorus> misfit, check this out.  http://technowizah.com/2006/11/debian-how-to-task-manager-xp-style_02.html
[07:47] <cables> otero, probably kubuntu-desktop 'cause it comes with everything kubuntu comes with
[07:48] <otero> okay
[07:48] <otero> its not a completly new OS right?
[07:48] <misfit> @cables: you mean ctrl-alt-x?  @dawn_chorus: thank you, I'm checking it right now.
[07:48] <dawn_chorus> misfit, ur welcome.
[07:49] <KevinOman> otero no, it uses the same core OS, you have to choose which one you want to use at login
[07:49] <cables> misfit, if you hit the X button on the top right of a window that's frozen, a dialog will pop up after a few seconds that will let you kill it. And unlike the End Task thingy that does that in Windows, it actually works.
[07:50] <otero> Kevin, synaptic has KDE and kunbuntu-desktop? IM confused which one I need installed
[07:50] <dawn_chorus> or alt-f2: killall <whatever>
[07:50] <cables> otero, kubuntu-desktop includes kde, AND all the Kubuntu core software
[07:51] <KevinOman> otero kubuntu desktop is kde, just optimized with all the proper packages for ubuntu
[07:51] <otero> I see.
[07:51] <otero> thanks fellas
[07:51] <misfit> @cables: yeah, I've noticed that about Ubuntu, it's been awesome.  The only problem I had was getting my geforce ti 4600 running with the desktop effects...
[07:51] <KevinOman> oh sorry cables
[07:53] <KevinOman> wow got quite in here
[07:53] <misfit> hey guys, the link cables sent me works great!  Now Ubuntu runs the task manager with ctrl-alt-delete!
[07:53] <cables> misfit, I didn't send you that
[07:54] <cables> misfit, it was dawn_chorus
[07:54] <misfit> my mistake... the link dawn_chorus sent me works awesome.
[07:54] <spikeb> misfit: sweet
[07:54] <cables> that link is annoying
[07:54] <cables> it doesn't show how to do it with beryl
[07:54] <dawn_chorus> tell antidrugue.
[07:54] <cables> it's probably a simple change though
[07:54] <dawn_chorus> he'll put up the solution.  he's a good guy.
[07:54] <cables> cool
[07:55] <cables> hmm
[07:55] <cables> i can probably just config it through beryl-settings
[07:55] <misfit> What's the easiest method to take screenshots with ubuntu?
[07:55] <cables> misfit, hit PrintScreen
[07:55] <cables> misfit, it'll open a thingy
[07:56] <cables> misfit, or you can go to Applications>Accessories>Take Screenshot
[07:56] <dawn_chorus> g'night gang.
[07:56] <misfit> Is there a way to capture a screen of only a certain window or a small area of the screen?
[07:56] <cables> misfit, go to Applications>Accessories>Take Screenshot, like I said.
[07:56] <KevinOman> yeah I just realized I was using beryl not compiz, it is annoying
[07:56] <inflex-> aw crap - what's the name of the GNOME app that you use to setup your sound cards?
[07:56] <misfit> oh, right!
[07:57] <inflex-> because I've got two in this system and obviously it's setup the wrong one by default *laugh*
[07:57] <Tom47> !sound | infex
[07:57] <ubotu> infex: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[07:57] <cables> inflex-, System>Preferences>Sound or "gnome-sound-properties"
[07:57] <misfit> applications>take screenshot brought up a different dialog box
[07:57] <cables> misfit, yeah, that lets you choose what window to screenshot.
[07:58] <inflex-> cables: I've siwtched to Fluxbox, no menu ;)
[07:58] <cables> inflex-, that's why I gave you the command as well :)
[07:58] <inflex-> ah sorry
[07:58] <cables> that's ok
[07:58] <otero> hey cables, i got a KDM window after installating kubuntu-desktop
[07:58] <misfit> very cool!  Ok, thank you for the help guys, I appreciate it!
[07:58] <inflex-> just been recovering from a HDD change
[07:58] <cables> otero, that's because you chose KDM when it asked you in the install.
[07:59] <Jay1> That didn't fix the problem
[07:59] <nergar> what do i need to compile software?? linux-headers ? what else???
[07:59] <otero> so...what do I do?
[07:59] <cables> otero, log in... there should be a sessions thing where you can choose
[07:59] <otero> i ignore this window?
[07:59] <KevinOman> otero kubuntu-desktop installed that fast?
[07:59] <cables> sorry
[07:59] <otero> yea
[07:59] <cables> where you can choose which DE you want
[07:59] <KevinOman> cool
[07:59] <notfail> So no one has any idea how I can get cwiid to work?
[07:59] <nergar> anyone?
[08:00] <cables> otero, it should have asked you at some point whether to use GDM or KDM... you did install from the terminal like I told you, right?
[08:00] <cables> !patience | nergar

[08:00] <cables> !compile | nergar
[08:00] <Jay1> I think Ubuntu thinks that I have my monitor connected to my old video card.
[08:00] <ubotu> nergar: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:00] <otero> Im going to reboot-brb
[08:00] <nergar> thanx a lot cables :)
[08:00] <FKi> My wireless card works with vista, but not with ubuntu
[08:00] <notfail> http://pastebin.ca/524854 <-- I am trying to install cwiid from source
[08:01] <Jay1> I am booting Ubuntu from a LiveCD and Xserver isn't working
[08:01] <foug_> does anyone here have Ventrilo running on their Ubuntu system? I've come across some problems at what should be the end of installing it
[08:01] <shiester_miester> cables, back :D
[08:01] <noiesmo> notfail: you running ubuntu try apt-cache search bluetooth see if theres a dev package it might be what u need
[08:01] <cables> shiester_miester, how'd it work out?
[08:01] <shiester_miester> restarting windows has fixed the problem altogether
[08:01] <notfail> Trying
[08:02] <Kess> I'm trying to boot ubuntu from the cd and at first it looks like it's loading but then I just get a black screen.
[08:02] <shiester_miester> although i had a disturbing error when i went into windows, it said something along the lines of "the system has crashed because the nvidia driver failed a draw operation.  the nvidia driver has been identified as the cause of system instability"
[08:02] <foug_> no one here uses Ventrilo?
[08:02] <FKi> My wireless card doesn't work with ubuntu, any suggestions?
[08:03] <beford> !wireless
[08:03] <noiesmo> !wireless
[08:03] <ubotu> Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[08:03] <notfail> Okay
[08:03] <shiester_miester> when it crashed earlier, the screen went totally black for a few seconds for no aparrent reason before it suddenly rebooted
[08:03] <shiester_miester> which is worrying to say the least
[08:03] <notfail> I'm uploading the output to pastebin
[08:03] <KevinOman> kess before or after you click install ubuntu
[08:03] <Kess> after
[08:03] <chris-a> okay i'm back
[08:03] <Kess> I get that nifty loading bar that goes back and forth, and then everything goes black
[08:03] <notfail> http://pastebin.ca/524899 <--- noiesmo: This is what I get
[08:03] <chris-a> completely removed the mozilla-fox package through synatpic
[08:04] <KevinOman> kess did you try doing the text base install?
[08:04] <chris-a>  rebooted.  and reinstalled it same thing segmented fault
[08:04] <Kess> nope.  I was just wanting to use the cd to try the os before I do an install
[08:05] <KevinOman> does fiesty have the oem install thingy?
[08:05] <noiesmo> notfail: i would install if space on system not an issue packages on line 8-13 of your paste they look like dev and libray files
[08:05] <shiester_miester> kess, 64bit version?
[08:05] <Kess> yeah
[08:05] <shiester_miester> i had the same problem
[08:05] <notfail> Alright
[08:05] <notfail> I'll check back in after I installed all that
[08:05] <foug_> no one here uses or knows anything about ventrilo? I have it all installed but the last step of this guide isn't working
[08:05] <shiester_miester> in my case, it hadn't actually hung but was just taking longer than I expected with no hard drive activity.  just try leaving it for a while :P
[08:06] <noiesmo> notfail: no guarantee it will cover the dependencies of the package tho and it wont matter that there installed if not need
[08:06] <KevinOman> well kess I think either your cd is bad, burin it slower, or the installer is having problems with your video card
[08:06] <notfail> Actually I just installed libbluetooth2-dev
[08:06] <shiester_miester> although i wouldnt recommend the 64bit version anyway
[08:06] <bulltitan> hi
[08:06] <notfail> And I got past my first problem
[08:06] <shiester_miester> since you will have issues getting some software to work on it
[08:06] <KevinOman> tkess im not really sure, and I don't have 64 bit
[08:06] <chris-a> firefox is getting on my nerves
[08:06] <noiesmo> notfail: sometimes its a bit of trial and error
[08:06] <notfail> Yeah
[08:06] <Kess> I'll just give it more time to load.
[08:06] <notfail> Thank you for the help
[08:06] <noiesmo> notfail: np
[08:06] <Kess> thanks Shiester
[08:07] <shiester_miester> it might take a couple of minutes to load from the cd
[08:07] <shiester_miester> but i recommend you use the 32 bit versoin
[08:07] <shiester_miester> you wont have that problem with it either
[08:07] <bulltitan> is there a place in the ubuntu forums to post how proud i feel for using it?
[08:07] <KevinOman> kess try starting the text base installer if it makes it to the beginning its more than likely video problems
[08:07] <shiester_miester> for some reason, the loading screen doesnt work properly on the 64bit version on some systems.   anybody know why this is?
[08:07] <chris-a> What does a segmentation fault mean?
[08:07] <noiesmo> bulltitan: if not why not register and start a thread
[08:07] <Kess> how do I do the text based installer?
[08:08] <shiester_miester> no idea
[08:08] <KevinOman> Is an option on the list when you load the disk
[08:08] <KevinOman> im pretty sure....
[08:08] <lockd> i entered this command and qemu refuses to boot the partition: qemu -boot c -hda /dev/sda1
[08:08] <Kess> oh ok, one sec while I restart the other system.  Hurray for having two computers
[08:08] <cables> shiester_miester, did you get your HDs mounted?
[08:08] <bulltitan> good idea as long as i can post pics
[08:09] <shiester_miester> cables, yes
[08:09] <mikech> trying to boot off of live cd under vista doesn't work, goes right into vist
[08:09] <cables> cool
[08:09] <mikech> vista
[08:09] <otero2> KDE is uglyyy
[08:09] <shiester_miester> thank you very much for your help
[08:09] <mobal> good morning'
[08:09] <lockd> anyone?
[08:09] <mikech> any suggestions?
[08:09] <shiester_miester> mikech, have you set your bios to boot from CD?
[08:09] <noiesmo> lockd i'm prettysure qemu doesnt do partition install only images created with qemu command
[08:09] <lockd> it kinda sits there nully, like I would expect Windows to do
[08:09] <shiester_miester> you cant boot "under" an OS :P
[08:09] <lockd> noiesmo: ouch
[08:09] <notfail> http://pastebin.ca/524915 <-- Well now I get this
[08:09] <bulltitan> the thing is that al ubuntu flavors are going up now like a bullet they really work as they should
[08:09] <mikech> nope, don't know how
[08:10] <shiester_miester> mikech, well theres your problem
[08:10] <lockd> noiesmo: well, it did, but only with a botched partition
[08:10] <bulltitan> and well i'm happy for it
[08:10] <mikech> oh, thanks, i'll go look it up
[08:10] <chris-a> What does a segmentation fault mean?
[08:10] <BFTD> Hi, I got a Inspiron 1100, and I'm installing Ubuntu on it, its only using the center screen, is this only for the install or will it be this way after its install? Also it detected my wireless card but never connected to my router.
[08:10] <shiester_miester> when it boots up press del (or whatever it says to press - sometimes its different) and change the boot priority in the bios
[08:10] <lockd> noiesmo: i stuck the qemu image into the partition itself - unfortunately Windows can't boot those
[08:10] <shiester_miester> usually bios menus arent the most complex software in the world.  just be careful not to mess with anything except boot priority or boot order, whatever its called
[08:11] <Kess> I don't see any option on the cd start up menu that mention text based
[08:11] <mikech> on vista? i don't see that come up like it does on xp
[08:11] <shiester_miester> no no no when your computer turns on first
[08:11] <chris-a> hi! What does a segmentation fault mean?
[08:11] <shiester_miester> you cant install an operating system from imside another operating system
[08:11] <lockd> noiesmo: now, I have a normal partition, I guess I will be stuck dual booting
[08:11] <mikech> right.
[08:11] <SuperQ> chris-a: boom!
[08:11] <shiester_miester> when your computer turns on there should be some kind of information screens first
[08:11] <noiesmo> lockd yeah or maybe vmware
[08:11] <notfail> Nevermind
[08:11] <chris-a> superq: then firefox went boom and it keeps going boom
[08:11] <notfail> Found a solution I think
[08:12] <mikech> usually booting xp flashes something about going intyo the bios setup, and i don't see that
[08:12] <KevinOman> bftd, it shoud work out after you get everything installed, im not sure about your wireless card
[08:12] <chris-a> isntall after install
[08:12] <lockd> noiesmo: I assume the running off a real partition is patented by vmware
[08:12] <SuperQ> chris-a: ahh, that's not good
[08:12] <bulltitan> but more over i'd like to post my system specs which are not really high and xubuntu works great
[08:12] <SuperQ> chris-a: how are you installing?
[08:12] <KevinOman> mikech what are you tryin to do exactly?
[08:12] <KevinOman> boot the live cd?
[08:12] <mikech> i wanted to use  ubuntu off a live cd rather than install under vista
[08:12] <shiester_miester> mikech, like i said this is before any operating systems get booted
[08:13] <BFTD> KevinOman ok
[08:13] <chris-a> superQ: apt-get install mozilla-firefox
[08:13] <noiesmo> lockd not sure sorry
[08:13] <shiester_miester> its the FIRST thing that happens as soon as you turn your computer on
[08:13] <Kess> Kevin I don't see a text based install option on the list of options
[08:13] <mikech> right, i guess my other machines were all set up that way
[08:13] <notfail> Nope
[08:13] <SuperQ> chris-a: try doing this
[08:13] <notfail> I am still getting http://pastebin.ca/524915
[08:13] <SuperQ> chris-a: apt-get update ; apt-get clean
[08:13] <chris-a> like it happens when i try to sign in to anything  like my myspace of something
[08:14] <shiester_miester> mikech, try restarting your machine and just pressing del a bunch of times as soon as it restarts
[08:14] <chris-a> SuperQ: will do
[08:14] <KevinOman> mikech you have to do what shiester_miester said and change your bios, go change your boot priority and put boot from cd at the top of the list
[08:14] <SuperQ> chris-a: then apt-get install firefox
[08:14] <lockd> noiesmo: thought VMWare was closed source and cost a bundle
[08:14] <noiesmo> notfail: now looks like you need gtk2 and gthread dev packages
[08:14] <KevinOman> oh
[08:14] <KevinOman> :)
[08:14] <mikech> will do, i might or might not be back.  see ya maybe :)
[08:14] <lockd> noiesmo: if so, I'm tempted to get my old copy of disasm
[08:14] <SuperQ> chris-a: I think "firefox" is a meta package you need
[08:14] <KevinOman> you will be fine
[08:14] <notfail> apt get install gtk2 then
[08:14] <Kess> I have "Start or install ubuntu" "Start ubuntu in safe graphics mode" (maybe I should try that), "Install with driver update cd" "Check CD for defects" "memory test" and "Boot from first hard disk"
[08:14] <noiesmo> lockd I thought they had released vmware free now but dont quote me on that
[08:15] <notfail> Says it couldn't find package gtk2
[08:15] <KevinOman> do the one in safe graphics mode
[08:15] <noiesmo> notfail: apt-cache search gtk2 see dev pakages
[08:15] <KevinOman> :)
[08:15] <me22> hmm, nvidia's driver installer appears to complete successfully, but then I can't modprobe nvidia. Ideas?
[08:15] <noiesmo> notfail: use apt-cache search package name to find packages then use apt-get install packagename to install
[08:16] <chris-a> SuperQ: does dpkg -p<package name> do the same as synaptic complete removal?
[08:16] <KevinOman> kess alternately you should check cd for defects
[08:16] <notfail> k
[08:16] <Kess> I'll give that one a try if this doesn't work
[08:16] <noiesmo> me22: why use nvidia install just apt-get install nvidia-glx or nvida-glx-new
[08:16] <KevinOman> doesn't fiesty have an oem installer?
[08:16] <KevinOman> anyone know?
[08:16] <SuperQ> chris-a: I don't think dpkg -p does anything
[08:17] <SuperQ> chris-a: are you thinking --purge?
[08:17] <chris-a> SuperQ: oh i mean dpkg -P
[08:17] <chris-a>  yeh
[08:17] <SuperQ> chris-a: I don't know.. I don't use synaptic :)
[08:17] <chris-a> lol
[08:18] <r2d4> I am having a lot of problems with WiFi in Ubuntu. My system often freezes.
[08:18] <shiester_miester> KevinOman, do you mean OEM as in, for the manufacturers of pre-made computer systems?
[08:18] <r2d4> Is there any protocol I should use to diagnose this?
[08:18] <chris-a> superq: i tried it then clicked the icon on the menu bar and it opened  then i tried synaptic and it didnt open so i guess not hehe
[08:18] <KevinOman> shiester_miester:  yes
[08:18] <shiester_miester> whats wrong with the normal one?
[08:18] <r2d4> I am using an Airlink card.
[08:18] <shiester_miester> do you mean like a scripted install
[08:19] <lockd> noiesmo: hey, there's a new feature in qemu which adds this, cool
[08:19] <chris-a> SuperQ: how do youdo a complete package/program removal?
[08:19] <KevinOman> shiester_miester:  I just thought that if he's having trouble with video that might work for him
[08:19] <lockd> noiesmo: otherwise it requires a whole /disk/
[08:19] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[08:19] <SuperQ> chris-a: apt-get --purge remove firefox
[08:19] <noiesmo> lockd cool
[08:19] <shiester_miester> who was having trouble with video?
[08:19] <SuperQ> chris-a: that may not remove all the sub packages tho
[08:20] <Kess> Woot!  Graphics safe mode seems to be working!
[08:20] <shiester_miester> kess, it should work normally anyway
[08:20] <`ash-> is this the cool place to be?
[08:20] <chris-a> superQ:  okay cool i saw that in the man but didn't quite under the explanation lol
[08:20] <shiester_miester> just not have a visible loading screen
[08:20] <SuperQ> chris-a: yea, that's what I normally use
[08:21] <me22> noiesmo: I need the brand spanking new drivers for my new 8600 GT.
[08:21] <chris-a> SuperQ: Sweet i learn something new everything i come in here hehe
[08:21] <me22> noiesmo: the ones in apt are still the 97xx series
[08:21] <noiesmo> me22: ahh ok have you disabled the nv drivers from loading in /etc/default/linux-restricted-blah
[08:21] <dre1> Hi everyone!
[08:21] <KevinOman> HELLO

[08:22] <SuperQ> n2diy: (and do by default)
[08:22] <chris-a>  it didn't remove the gnome stuff and all that synaptic did but we shall see
[08:22] <Hobbsee> !caps | KevinOman
[08:22] <ubotu> KevinOman: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[08:22] <KevinOman> omg
[08:23] <n2diy> SuperQ: Cool, very cool.
[08:23] <chris-a> sweet and i'll reinstall.  apt-get install firefox
[08:23] <KevinOman> not like I bursted your ear drums or anything
[08:23] <chris-a> many thanks.
[08:23] <noiesmo> lockd have you got a link to info on the qemu new feature
[08:23] <_1ucky_> Hi,ppl:)
[08:23] <KevinOman> isn't this shouting too!
[08:23] <lockd> noiesmo: it's apparently in the cvs, as an experimental patch
[08:23] <dre1> I'm running a fairly old 1.1 Ghz Pentium Desktop 512 Mb ram.  I got a usb orinoco running with ndiswrapper, beryl installed and a lexmark x75 that is currently defunct
[08:23] <spikeb> KevinOman: in theory!
[08:23] <shiester_miester> KevinOman, its called "netiquette" and as corny as that sounds, if you want our help then you should try and be respectful
[08:23] <SuperQ> chris-a: also useful is apt-get --reinstall install
[08:23] <dre1> But my problem right now is not the pringter
[08:24] <noiesmo> lockd ah ok cheers
[08:24] <KevinOman> I don't want your help im here to help
[08:24] <chris-a>  SWEET!
[08:24] <shiester_miester> ah
[08:24] <shiester_miester> well then, shout away
[08:24] <lockd> noiesmo: checkinstall ftw
[08:24] <chris-a> SuperQ: will do
[08:24] <KevinOman> !caps chris-a
[08:24] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about caps chris-a - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:24] <dre1> There's my account, which has administrative priveleges, and my mothers and sisters, which don't.
[08:24] <r2d4> SORRY FOR ALL CAPS. I just wanted some (any) response to check if my messages are appearing at all in this channel. I did not get any response in my last few attempts. Was wondering if it is some auth issue.
[08:24] <me22> noiesmo: yeah, I have all that stuff purged.
[08:24] <KevinOman> !caps | chris-a
[08:24] <ubotu> chris-a: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[08:24] <KevinOman> lol
[08:24] <KevinOman> that's corny
[08:24] <shiester_miester> r2d4, no we cant see what you are saying
[08:24] <lockd> noiesmo: vmware does nil
[08:25] <dre1> The problem is, when my mom or sister logs out, the login screen does not open, the screen stays black but you can move the mouse.
[08:25] <dre1> Any idea?
[08:25] <chris-a> ubotu: i'm sorry
[08:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about i'm sorry - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:25] <lockd> noiesmo: it requires some arcane file, which by definition can't be a disk image or a disk
[08:25] <shiester_miester> you arent getting any response because nobody can see what you type.  its not because nobody knows how to help you at all
[08:25] <noiesmo> lockd oh
[08:25] <KevinOman> lol
[08:25] <Worry> help with #sound
[08:25] <shiester_miester> although im being somewhat hypocritical...
[08:25] <shiester_miester> i probably shouldnt be so sarcastic
[08:26] <dre1> Does anyone know anything about my problem
[08:26] <noiesmo> lockd me22 got go catch u's later good luck sorting everything
[08:26] <Defient> happy happy happy@!
[08:26] <notfail> Awesome
[08:26] <notfail> I got it all working
[08:26] <notfail> Thanks for the help guys
[08:26] <dre1> good work botfail
[08:27] <dre1> notfail*
[08:27] <KevinOman> dre1 how do you recover from it?
[08:27] <KevinOman> dre1 reboot?
[08:27] <dre1> from the black screen?
[08:27] <dre1> yeah
[08:27] <KevinOman> yes
[08:27] <SuperQ> dre1: try ctrl-alt-backspace
[08:27] <dre1> I alt F4 then login and reboot
[08:27] <SuperQ> dre1: that will kill just the X server
[08:27] <KevinOman> try ctrl + alt + F1
[08:27] <KevinOman> I think
[08:28] <dre1> all good plans
[08:28] <KevinOman> that will bring you to a login
[08:28] <dre1> any way to stop it from freezing in the first place?
[08:28] <SuperQ> dre1: as to why it's happening, I'm not sure
[08:28] <shiester_miester> ctrl+alt+f1 doesnt kill the x server i thought...it just kicks you out to a console
[08:28] <KevinOman> mmm im not sure on that one
[08:28] <SuperQ> dre1: can you give us more details?
[08:28] <SuperQ> dre1: which ubuntu version, what video card
[08:29] <dre1> Well I said earlier, I have beryl installed, orinoco on ndiswrapper
[08:29] <KevinOman> shiester_miester:  im not sure I just knw that's how I reconverd from black screen a few times
[08:29] <dre1> I'm running feisty fawn
[08:29] <dre1> 7.04
[08:29] <SuperQ> oh
[08:29] <SuperQ> dre1: I'm going to blame beryl ;)
[08:29] <dre1> hrmm
[08:29] <KevinOman> beryl is tricky
[08:29] <SuperQ> dre1: it sounds like the window manager (beryl) is not exiting cleanly
[08:29] <shiester_miester> KevinOman, what black screen?
[08:29] <joejoe300> anyone here successful in installing ubuntu on an external usb drive?
[08:29] <dre1> yeah, I have a lot of stuff on my beryl disabled, which isn't on theirs
[08:29] <shiester_miester> you mean when menus and windows and stuff start going black?
[08:30] <joejoe300> the installer is having trouble making the correct partitions
[08:30] <KevinOman> dre1 did you try asking about it in #beryl
[08:30] <andrew_> hello vervryone
[08:30] <dre1> KevinOman I'll try that now
[08:30] <shiester_miester> i only just figured out how to fix that stupid black window bug yesterday :D
[08:30] <KevinOman> shiester_miester:  no when I have to install things that require x to be shutdown
[08:30] <shiester_miester> oh ok
[08:30] <KevinOman> dre1 be patient with them it takes a while sometimes
[08:30] <andrew_> 
[08:31] <tonyy> Where is the option for whether to group multiple windows of the same application or not in the window list ?
[08:31] <dre1> Ok
[08:31] <andrew_> 
[08:31] <beford> right click in the task panel tonyy
[08:31] <KevinOman> tonyy are you talking about the panel applets?
[08:31] <beford> !cn
[08:31] <ubotu> For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[08:31] <SuperQ> andrew_: 
[08:31] <Kess> um, I restarted and didn't do graphics safe mode and my screen us a bunch of green vertical lines with flashing purple lines between them
[08:31] <KevinOman> tonyy right click on the panel and click "add to panel"
[08:32] <shiester_miester> Kess, that sounds like a retro arcade game
[08:32] <KevinOman> yes
[08:32] <Kess> yeah it looks like one too
[08:32] <Kess> Anyone got a quarter?
[08:32] <tonyy> KevinOman: No, like when I have two gaim windows, whether to have "Gaim (2)", or "Gaim"  "Gaim".
[08:32] <tonyy> beford: And then what?
[08:32] <KevinOman> kess did you decide to try the normal install?
[08:32] <Watermelon2> erm #ubuntu64 only has one person/bot...
[08:32] <KevinOman> tonyy oh I don't know then
[08:33] <Flannel> Watermelon2: This is the Ubuntu 64bit support channel
[08:33] <Kess> yeah this time I did just the regular load from the disk, not in graphics safe mode
[08:33] <beford> tonyy, click Preferences
[08:33] <Kess> My screen looks like how old nes games looked when you needed to blow the dust out of them
[08:33] <tonyy> beford: There's a "properties", but no Preferences.
[08:33] <andrew_> I use 32bit computer
[08:34] <joejoe300> anyone here know why the installer cannot set up partitions properly on a usb drive?
[08:34] <beford> tonyy, click in the section where your tasks appear
[08:34] <joejoe300> its big enough (40gb)
[08:34] <shiester_miester> lol @ kess
[08:34] <KevinOman> kess im not sure shiester_miester is that the 64 bit bud you were talking about?
[08:34] <shiester_miester> KevinOman, nope
[08:34] <KevinOman> bug
[08:34] <KevinOman> lol
[08:34] <beford> tonyy, try right clicking at the dots next to the first task, the ones used to move the task applet
[08:34] <shiester_miester> the only bug i had was that the loading screen wouldnt work
[08:34] <Watermelon2> Flannel:ok thx.anyone has ccompiled/installed the required lib 'tls1.5' for amsn under ubuntu6.10 edge 64bit?
[08:34] <shiester_miester> although i did encounter weird graphical artifacts when trying to configure my nvidia drivers
[08:35] <joejoe300> anyone?
[08:35] <shiester_miester> such as the aforementioned flashing lines etc
[08:35] <shiester_miester> joejoe300, nope
[08:35] <tonyy> beford: Got it.  I  have a bar rather than dots though.  Thanks.
[08:35] <joejoe300> thanks shiester_meister
[08:35] <KevinOman> well kess all can say is that I used to be a windows finatic and since I found ubuntu I hardly ever use windows, if I were you I would just install it
[08:35] <beford> tonyy, oh yea, its the theme
[08:35] <Flannel> Watermelon2: you know that amsn is available in the repositories, right?
[08:35] <KevinOman> kess I just use windows for games now
[08:35] <Kess> It could be the drivers then.  I did try to fiddle with the desktop options and it said it installed the drivers for my video card, and I do have a nvidia card
[08:36] <yagami> Hello all, can someone help me to get opera to find the libqt libs it needs to display opera interface menus/dialogs properly?
[08:36] <yagami> it works now - but with libmotif i think
[08:37] <mikech> shiester_miester: thanks found the bios change option
[08:37] <dre1> oh boy the beryl room is pretty dead
[08:37] <shiester_miester> mikech, did you get ubuntu booted from the cd?
[08:37] <KevinOman> kess what version gpu do you have for your nvidia card?
[08:37] <shiester_miester> glad to have been of help to you ;)
[08:37] <PurpZeY> dre1: What do you need, I *might* be able to help.
[08:37] <joejoe300> anyone familiar with www.usbuntu.com
[08:37] <joejoe300> seems to be down
[08:37] <Kess> Is there some place that has better drivers for a geforce 6800 so that I can load Ubuntu without needing safe mode?
[08:37] <dre1> I think perchaps I'll try tinkering with beryl rather than waiting for a response..
[08:37] <joejoe300> but this guy is (correct me if im wrong) SELLING ubuntu?
[08:37] <mikech> will do it later, going to sleep now,  but i see where the order is floppy, hd, cd and needs to be changed
[08:37] <Flannel> joejoe300: you mean ubuntu.com?
[08:38] <joejoe300> in a usb friendly package
[08:38] <shiester_miester> drel, what are you trying to do?
[08:38] <yagami> anyone know where to find out customization options for compiz?
[08:38] <joejoe300> Flannel, nope
[08:38] <mikech> on my dell its f2
[08:38] <joejoe300> apparently its a usb-drive friendly ubuntu
[08:38] <PurpZeY> dre1: What do you need? I *might* be able to help.
[08:38] <KevinOman> ubuntu should load that card
[08:38] <shiester_miester> joejoe300, are you serious?
[08:38] <shiester_miester> hes actually charging for it?
[08:38] <joejoe300> according to some forum posts, although the site seems down
[08:38] <joejoe300> im sure its against ubuntu tos right?
[08:38] <dre1> Trying to stop my screen from never returning to the login screen when my mom or sister log out
[08:38] <PurpZeY> joejoe300: Seems like that'd be illegal.
[08:38] <shiester_miester> yeah most definately
[08:39] <KevinOman> I heard something the other day about ubuntu studio
[08:39] <shiester_miester> sounds like somebody needs to have a visit from some lawyers...
[08:39] <KevinOman> I forgot to check I tout
[08:39] <PurpZeY> dre1: And it only happens when beryl is loaded, not gtk?
[08:39] <fjj> ls
[08:39] <fjj> kljfeoif
[08:39] <fjj> skdfjpeow
[08:39] <dre1> PurpZeY: I'd have to do more tinkering to determine that
[08:40] <KevinOman> http://howtoforge.com/the_perfect_desktop_ubuntustudio7.04
[08:40] <Madpilot> joejoe300, PurpZeY - nothing wrong with selling Linux
[08:40] <Flannel> joejoe300: http://www.pendrivelinux.com/2007/02/12/usb-ubuntu-tutorial-for-linux-users/  seems to be a howto on how to get it on there (thats linked from the forums).  Also see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB
[08:40] <Andemius> Could somebody help me with ubuntu lamp installation?
[08:40] <Flannel> KevinOman: stay FAR away from howtoforge ubuntu tutorials.
[08:40] <joejoe300> thanks flannel
[08:40] <MightyMatt> Greetings all!  I have a question about loading the Ubuntu 7.04 LiveCD.  Namely, I keep getting a login screen, yet I have no username or password (yet).
[08:40] <PurpZeY> dre1: Should be easy to test...Right click on beryl manager...change to gtk manager...make the problem occur, see what happens
[08:40] <KevinOman> Flannel:  why?
[08:40] <mikech> btw is beryl on the ubuntu 7.04?
[08:41] <shiester_miester> mikech, no
[08:41] <Flannel> MightyMatt: You shouldnt get alogin with the Desktop CD.  Did you check the CD for defects?  Anyway, the username is "ubuntu" and the password is blank
[08:41] <dre1> alright, I'll have to come back to you then, cause it only happens on my mom and sister's accounts
[08:41] <PurpZeY> mikech: It's in the repositories. Not on the CD.
[08:41] <dre1> bbs
[08:41] <agn0stic> andemius: possibly. if you mean xampp, I'd say "don't" - it has to run as root. but yeah. whats the problem
[08:41] <Flannel> KevinOman: because theyre bad howtos.  They do lots of bad things.
[08:41] <KevinOman> oh lol
[08:41] <mikech> ahh so i need to actually install it on my pc to use beryl
[08:41] <KevinOman> thanks for the heads up
[08:41] <Thonolan> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=56835 may i use this for to compile a kernel on feisty too ? becuase i get error msg cant find packet linux -tree ?
[08:41] <shiester_miester> mikech, yes, in the same way as you have to install windows to use windows :P
[08:41] <joejoe300> quick q
[08:41] <Kess> Anyone know how to fix my graphics problem?
[08:41] <joejoe300> nvm
[08:41] <PurpZeY> Madpilot: Not with linux, but for selling ubuntu, I mean, isn't ubuntu proprietary?
[08:42] <shiester_miester> ohh wait you said beryl
[08:42] <mikech> :P
[08:42] <shiester_miester> doh
[08:42] <joejoe300> how do i open a terminal
[08:42] <joejoe300> im booted from ubuntu live cd
[08:42] <MightyMatt> Flannel: Yeah, I know.  The forums are chock full of people with this problem, but none of the u/p combos I try work.  Including ubuntu/*blank*.
[08:42] <PurpZeY> Kess: What is the problem?
[08:42] <Madpilot> PurpZeY, not really. The name is trademarked, that's all.
[08:42] <Flannel> KevinOman: anyway, #ubuntustudio is the u-s room.  You might check the topics in that channel
[08:42] <Flannel> MightyMatt: Did you cehck the CD for defects?  Ive heard of that problem as one of the symptoms of bad burns
[08:42] <PurpZeY> Madpilot: That's really interesting....I'm in law school so...these mundane things can be interesting.
[08:42] <KevinOman> Flannel:  is "studio an official version?
[08:42] <mikech> i was hoping to play with beryl from the live cd before committing to partitioning - installing ubuntu
[08:42] <Andemius> When trying to install lamp it just stops.. it says "85% .. Installed php5-mysql" and nothing happens even if i wait for hours... :(
[08:43] <Kess> When I load Ubuntu from the cd, it appears to load just fine until the screen turns into a bunch of vertical green lines, with blinking purple lines between them
[08:43] <Kess> If I load into graphics safe mode it works fine
[08:43] <PurpZeY> mikech: You might be able to...I tend to think not....you can probably try. but, I don't think it's a great idea...someone else may tell you otherwise.
[08:43] <shiester_miester> kess, did you try putting in more coins
[08:43] <zxca> i just install ubuntu but i cant see any compiler like redhat has, do you know where it is?
[08:43] <KevinOman> lol
[08:43] <PurpZeY> shiester_miester: hehehe.
[08:43] <e6nian> hello
[08:43] <MightyMatt> Flannel: The on-disc checker reports that everything is A-OK.  I've been hesitant to burn yet another disc, as it will be the fifth I'll have had to burn for this install.
[08:43] <PurpZeY> Kess: Did you do the recent updates? namely, kernel?
[08:44] <Thonolan> no suggestions for my question before ?
[08:44] <Thonolan> sigh
[08:44] <Noah0504> Does anyone use an email client to access their Gmail account?
[08:44] <Kess> yeah, I even tried to knock the machine around a bit to make the ball go where I wanted, but the darn thing keeps going tilt on me!
[08:44] <e6nian> can sb tell me" Given the sequence: M, T, W, T, F... - What's the next letter?
[08:44] <e6nian> "
[08:44] <KevinOman> PurpZeY:  he's trying to sample the live cd
[08:44] <zxca> i just install ubuntu but i cant see any compiler like redhat has, do you know where it is?
[08:44] <e6nian> Given the sequence: M, T, W, T, F... - What's the next letter?
[08:44] <shiester_miester> Q!
[08:44] <PurpZeY> KevinOman: I understand, but he wanted to know if he could install beryl.
[08:44] <KevinOman> uhh
[08:44] <Kess> um, no?  I'm not sure
[08:44] <PurpZeY> Kess: oh.
[08:44] <PurpZeY> ack
[08:44] <PurpZeY> KevinOman: Sorry, I thought you meant the other guy.
[08:44] <mikech> beryl runs within ubuntu
[08:44] <shiester_miester> e6nian, its obviously S, seriously
[08:45] <KevinOman> :)
[08:45] <agn0stic> andemius: lamp means linux apache mysql php. how are you installing it? apt-getting the packages?
[08:45] <shiester_miester> what a silly question
[08:45] <mikech> yept
[08:45] <e6nian> shiester_miester: why?
[08:45] <shiester_miester> oh, ive got a hard one!
[08:45] <shiester_miester> whats the next letter: a,b,c,d,e...
[08:45] <Andemius> agn0stic: i've downloaded lamp install cd.. booted from it and started to install it..
[08:45] <KevinOman> g
[08:45] <shiester_miester> that one is straight from MENSA
[08:45] <Kess> I saw a video demonstrating Ubuntu Beryl and thought "holy carp that looks awesome" and wanted to see it myself
[08:45] <mikech> yeah me 2
[08:45] <shiester_miester> if you can solve it, your iq is one billion
[08:45] <agn0stic> ademius: got a link to this "lamp install cd?"
[08:46] <KevinOman> kess beryl is sweet, comes with more eye candy you can shake a stick at
[08:46] <PurpZeY> mikech: It definitely runs within Ubuntu, but the live CD runs off of RAM...so I would tend to think beryl would be tough on a liveCD run...Maybe someone else can chime in? Kevin0man?
[08:46] <agn0stic> andemius: or is this the ubuntu server cd, or what?
[08:46] <Kess> I'd like to get it but as we've already established I'm flying blind here
[08:46] <joejoe300> how do i open the terminal again
[08:46] <joejoe300> ?
[08:46] <mikech> PurpZey: that makes sense
[08:46] <PurpZeY> e6nian: What language?
[08:46] <Flannel> KevinOman: It's semi-official, I believe.  but #ubuntustudio can give you all the details that I dont know about.  You can turn an existing ubuntu install into ubuntustudio easily
[08:46] <Kess> I don't have the slightest clue what I'm doing, or what is wrong
[08:46] <mikech> thanks
[08:46] <e6nian> http://bsd.miki.eu.org/
[08:46] <KevinOman> kess did you check the cd for errors?
[08:47] <Watermelon2> Flannel:I compiled amsn 0.97RC1? successfully,but it failed to download/intall tls1.5.0,so I had to compile tls1.5.0 manually,but it returned a openssl.o error(bad segment or sumthing,trying to link against a shared object) when compiling,removing '-shared' and/or adding '-ldl' didnt help either(it complained of missing '_main' after removing '-shared')
[08:47] <zxca> hello  help me find the compilers in ubuntu, i want to compile a c++ program
[08:47] <Kess> not yet.  I'll give that a shot
[08:47] <mikech> I wonder if wubi would work then
[08:47] <Madpilot> e6nian, shiester_miester - take the offtopic chat to PM or #ubuntu-offtopic, please
[08:47] <e6nian> i register a acount there
[08:47] <PurpZeY> mikech: Might work in wubi. . .Not really sure about wubi too well.
[08:47] <shiester_miester> sorry
[08:47] <Andemius> agn0stic: sure.. it's http://www.nic.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/releases.ubuntu.com/feisty/ubuntu-7.04-server-i386.iso
[08:47] <dre1> Hrmm
[08:47] <dre1> I seem unable to reproduce the error
[08:47] <dre1> it has gone away for now
[08:48] <PurpZeY> dre1: Unable once you switch to gtk? or even in beryl?
[08:48] <agn0stic> andemius: ok, was just making sure it was the ubuntu server cd.
[08:48] <dre1> even in beryl
[08:48] <Thonolan> anyone has a link for me to compile a feisty kernel ?
[08:48] <Flannel> KevinOman: Oh.  That howtoforge (the Ubuntu Stduio one) is just a walkthrough of the install.  So, you cna follow it.  It's the other HTF ones that are problematic.  But this is getting offtopic, #ubuntustudio is the place for support
[08:48] <e6nian> shiester_miester : s is wrong
[08:48] <PurpZeY> dre1: Ours is not to reason why.
[08:48] <Flannel> !kernel | Thonolan
[08:48] <ubotu> Thonolan: kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[08:48] <Toulouse> hey guys, how many extra megabytes will overburning give you?
[08:48] <dre1> I'll have to explore it if/when it happens again.
[08:48] <KevinOman> flannel ahh thanks
[08:48] <Thonolan> thx flannel
[08:48] <knoppix> hello
[08:48] <mikech> ok one last ? i have a amd64 system but running 32 vista. it shouldn't make a diff. if itry to run ubuntu 64, alongside vista 32?
[08:48] <Andemius> agn0stic: yea.. it starts installing it okay but when selecting LAMP as a software to install it stops when reaching 85% and it only says "installed php5-mysql"
[08:49] <knoppix> sorry to interrupt
[08:49] <dre1> But I have not problem with miraculous recoveries
[08:49] <PurpZeY> dre1: It could always be some little bug in beryl, and switching back and forth managers might readjust it...Beryl is not totally stable.
[08:49] <agn0stic> andemius: have you checked the cd for errors?
[08:49] <Flannel> Andemius: sounds like a badburn.
[08:49] <dre1> even if they are a bit sketchy
[08:49] <KevinOman> kess do you have the 64bit cd?
[08:49] <Andemius> agn0stic: i've tried 3 different cd's now :(
[08:49] <e6nian> Question
[08:49] <e6nian> To limit number of jerks who want to have an account here, you'll have to answer one simple question:
[08:49] <e6nian> Given the sequence: M, T, W, T, F... - What's the next letter?
[08:49] <knoppix> does Ubuntu support USB modem?
[08:49] <Kess> Q!
[08:49] <agn0stic> andemius: burning at a slow speed? check the md5sum of the iso to make sure you didn't get a bad download?
[08:50] <dre1> PurpZey: Beryl is kinda crazy.
[08:50] <knoppix> Sagem modem
[08:50] <knoppix> anyone?
[08:50] <shiester_miester> beryl is awesome
[08:50] <dre1> PurpZey but so pretty
[08:50] <Andemius> agn0stic: md5 matched.. i guess i could try a very slow burn speed :) cause i don't know what else to do
[08:50] <Toulouse> how many extra mb's you think i'll get out of overburning???
[08:50] <shiester_miester> except that you always have to turn it off before you play games
[08:50] <PurpZeY> dre1: I run it on both my machines...I haven't had any problems...knock on wood...but, I hear it can be troublesome...but like you say, it's amazing to look at.
[08:50] <Flannel> Andemius: 4x is safe
[08:50] <Flannel> Andemius: and recommended, at that.
[08:50] <SunmanXII> hello - im trying to install real player on ubuntu. the only place i found was for linux and its a .bin file. suggestions?
[08:50] <Reilithion> Is there a tutorial I can refer to for installing/configuring a webserver and PHP for local use only on my Ubuntu laptop?
[08:50] <Andemius> Flannel: okay i will try with that..
[08:51] <knoppix> hello
[08:51] <shiester_miester> knoppix, i dont think so.  i have one and i have to use it as an ethernet device
[08:51] <PurpZeY> SunmanXII: I imagine you checked the repositories?
[08:51] <dre1> Has anyone gotten a lexmark x75 to work on ubuntu?
[08:51] <SunmanXII> purpzey: yes, couldnt find anything
[08:51] <Reilithion> for "is there" = "will someone please provide me with"
[08:51] <Andemius> Flannel: strange part tho is that it doesn't even try to read the cd when it reaches 85%
[08:51] <feross> Reilithion: look for a LAMP tutorial and just do the parts you need
[08:51] <knoppix> shiester-miester: but it does work ?
[08:51] <mikech> thanks for the help - nite
[08:52] <Reilithion> feross: k, I'll try that
[08:52] <Madpilot> dre1, ick, Lexmark. Have you checked linuxprinting.org?
[08:52] <dre1> haha, yes
[08:52] <zeroflag> since the last update (yesterday) my GDM refuses to start. anyone uploaded crap to apt again?
[08:52] <dre1> Madpilot: There's two drivers floating around
[08:52] <Kess> It finished checking my disk, it says there are no problems with the cd
[08:56] (Kess/#ubuntu) ah there it goes
[08:57] (KevinOman/#ubuntu) he's got a nvidia 6800
[08:57] (Kess/#ubuntu) nvidia geforce 6800gs
[08:57] (KevinOman/#ubuntu) oohhh gs :)
[08:57] (kafran/#ubuntu) Kess: here nVIDIA GeForce, i instaled the package that comes with ubuntu
[08:57] (dre1/#ubuntu) Bye all, thanks a bunch for your help.
[08:57] (Kess/#ubuntu) yes!  It makes all the difference!
[08:57] (PurpZeY/#ubuntu) zeroflag: Did you do the recent kernel upgrade?
[08:57] (KevinOman/#ubuntu) guys he's just trying to sample the live cd yet, he hasn't installed anything
[08:57] (zeroflag/#ubuntu) PurpZeY: probably...
[08:57] <Kaitlyn2004> someone, please, help me install ubuntu! I tried here before, and the forums... no lcuk :(
[08:57] (PurpZeY/#ubuntu) zeroflag: You running the nvidia drivers?
[08:58] (Kess/#ubuntu) where do I find that package?
[08:58] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: Describe the problem please.
[08:58] <Watermelon2> Kaitlyn2004:do you have a internet connection?
[08:58] <KevinOman> kess you can't install a package to use the live cd
[08:58] <KevinOman> its a "live" cd
[08:58] <Kess> so to fix this I'll have to fully install ubuntu?
[08:58] <KevinOman> everyting that you see lods off the cd
[08:58] <mkquist> kess - have u installed ubuntu?
[08:59] <Kess> not yet
[08:59] <zeroflag> PurpZeY: no graphics drivers at all... this is supposed to be a server only accessible through VNC...
[08:59] <kafran> KevinOman: live cd ;/ i use alternate, i dont need to test before something that i know is good ^^
[08:59] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: I install it off the cd... install works, then it asks me to reboot.. ejects cd
[08:59] <mkquist> kess - then whats the problem? (coming into the conversation late)
[08:59] <PurpZeY> zeroflag: If it's running the server kernel the kernel upgrade wouldn't affect it.
[08:59] <Kaitlyn2004> boot up, and it is SUPPPER laggy... can't get past login (which takes like 5 mins to even show up)
[08:59] <nazita> How about ubuntu vs fedora?
[08:59] <Kaitlyn2004> and yet the install/initially being in ubuntu ran fine
[09:00] <KevinOman> kafran, I have never used altyernat, but he doesn't have anything installed yet, he just wants to test the live cd and see what ubuntu's like
[09:00] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: Maybe I am jumping to conclusions, but I imagine the first bootup is going to be a little laggy at login...Maybe it's just my thought...
[09:00] <Kess> when I start ubuntu from the live cd, it seems to load just fine until the progress bar fills up.  Then my screen does weird things that seem to be different each time
[09:00] <mkquist> kess- ive got two machines that run ubuntu w/different nvidia cards and i have no probs so far
[09:00] <zeroflag> PurpZeY: it's not. it has the default distribution's kernel.
[09:00] <rdallarmi> hi, can anybody point out a wiki or how to on how to set up the "big desktop" with an ATi card, using the open source driver?
[09:00] <mkquist> kess- which version of ubuntu are we discussing?
[09:00] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: I eventually got past it once I think, and then I ran into a GNOME error
[09:00] <kafran> KevinOman: do u play media files there?
[09:00] <KevinOman> mkquist:  he's running 64 bit version
[09:00] <downstairs> help: imbedded video or audio cannot be forwarded or rewinded! (example: http://media.putfile.com/Armin-Van-Buuren--Randy-Boyer--Strike-Again)
[09:00] <mkquist> KevinOman - ty
[09:01] <Kess> Oh cod, it makes me eel when people carp and whale just for the halibut with no porpoise!
[09:01] <KevinOman> kafran:  uh I have never tried
[09:01] <PurpZeY> zeroflag: run 'uname -r' and tell me what kernel and I'll tell you if the problem is likely related.
[09:01] <mkquist> nazita - not nice
[09:01] <SunmanXII> kafran: check  i pmed you
[09:01] <Reilithion> What's a good graphical configuration/administration tool for LAMP available from the repositories?  I looked for Webmin, but couldn't find it.
[09:01] <Kess> lets see what happens this time I try loading without safe mode!
[09:02] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: Do you have any idea what the gnome error was?
[09:02] <mkquist> kess - ubuntu/version?
[09:02] <kafran> SunmanXII: where?
[09:02] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: I don't remember.. I'll try and get there now again...
[09:02] <KevinOman> Reilithion: you talking about a hosting control panel?
[09:02] <mkquist> kess - fawn?
[09:02] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: Or log into the safe-graphics and try to fix it.
[09:02] <Kess> not sure what you mean by version.
[09:02] <SunmanXII> kafran:  err well im using gAIM so im sure i just pmed you here
[09:02] <Kess> I'm totally new to all this
[09:02] <Kaitlyn2004> whats safe-graphics?
[09:02] <zeroflag> PurpZeY: 2.6.20-16-generic
[09:02] <mkquist> Kess - just for the record, ur not trolling right?
[09:03] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn: Safe-mode-esque.
[09:03] <KevinOman> kess did you download fiesty fawn?
[09:03] <mkquist> Kess - if not, then which distro did u download?
[09:03] <Kess> 64 bit?
[09:03] <SunmanXII> kafran: i figured out how to install real player
[09:03] <mkquist> Kess - edgy? fawn? which one, uv gotta know...
[09:03] <Reilithion> KevinOman: Pretty much anything that will help me configure at least Apache and PHP from the same place will do.  I'm willing to look around and try different things to find the right tool, so any suggestions would be appreciated.
[09:03] <SunmanXII> and play rmvbs
[09:03] <mkquist> Kess - the newest then?
[09:03] <Kaitlyn2004> hmmm something's weird
[09:03] <SunmanXII> so pm me
[09:03] <PurpZeY> zeroflag: Yeah, that's the new kernel...If it's related to graphics card, which is what I've heard, you need to remove and reinstall your graphics drivers...otherwise you can just load the old kernel -15 from grub.
[09:03] <Madpilot> SunmanXII, you can't PM on Freenode without being registered
[09:03] <Kaitlyn2004> I reset the bios, and now it can't even get to the boot screen... lol
[09:03] <Kess> I went to ubuntu.com and it asked me what kind of computer I had.  I told it a 64 bit amd and it pointed me to the file I downloaded
[09:04] <mkquist> Kess - and u didnt happen to catch the name of the d/l?
[09:04] <SunmanXII> madpilot:thanks
[09:04] <Kess> nope but the iso is still on my desktop, I can boot back into windows and get that for you in a minute
[09:04] <kafran> SunmanXII: check pvt ;)
[09:04] <SunmanXII> kafran: you should email/im me or something
[09:05] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: Let's start at the top, what sort of setup is it? Is there a windows partition on the drive?
[09:05] <KevinOman> Reilithion: check this link and also check out ISPConfig http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu704
[09:05] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: It seems I can either only boot into it, or into recovery console which is command line...
[09:05] <Kess> vertical green and purple stripes again!
[09:05] <mkquist> Kess - or u could just goto system/about ubuntu and it should say
[09:05] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: It, meaning what?
[09:05] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: It's a Dell Dimension 8250. 2.66 Ghz w/ 768 mb RDRAM
[09:05] <Kess> but I hear the start up sound that Ubuntu makes
[09:05] <KevinOman> Reilithion: that's the best I know
[09:05] <Kaitlyn2004> no windows partition
[09:05] <Reilithion> thanks, KevinOman
[09:05] <kafran> SunmanXII: ;/ oki, no pvt then, tell here
[09:05] <Kaitlyn2004> i expected to get beyond a command line :( hehe
[09:05] <zeroflag> PurpZeY: thanks, I'll try booting the old one.
[09:05] <Kess> Mk: problem with that clever scheme is that I can't see anything except in safe mode
[09:06] <SunmanXII> kafran: http://forms.helixcommunity.org/helix/builds/?category=realplay-current
[09:06] <KevinOman> kess I think you should just take a dive and install it in safe graphics mode
[09:06] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: Ok, so, you can pick the install or recovery console?
[09:06] <mkquist> Kess - good pt./on live cd can u do that?
[09:06] <SunmanXII> this is the latest build of realplayer they have tar files just unpack it and run realplay
[09:06] <kafran> SunmanXII: will see.. thank you
[09:06] <mkquist> Kess - does it work in live CD? or was that discussed already? (if so sorry)
[09:06] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: No, I installed it... after I turn it on, I can select ubunutu generic on / ... and then that again (recovery mod) and memtest..
[09:07] <mkquist> Kess- nm answered already
[09:07] <Kess> It works if I use safe mode, but only in safe mode
[09:07] <mkquist> Kess - I'd suggest d/l maybe another version to start with, maybe an earlier version will boot Live cd properly
[09:07] <mkquist> Kess - maybe that is
[09:07] <KevinOman> kess even if you boot the live cd I don't think you will get beryl working until you install the whole OS
[09:07] <PurpZeY> KevinOman: How do you access graphics-safe mode from grub? on regular install
[09:08] <Thonolan> !kernel
[09:08] <mkquist> KevinOman - hes trying to do beryl on a live cd?
[09:08] <ubotu> kernel is the core of the Ubuntu Operating System (named 'Linux') - see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel.  You shouldn't have to compile one, but if you're convinced you do, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelCustomBuild
[09:08] <Kess> its an option for me, right under the regular start/install option
[09:08] <FKi> so im trying to run wow on ubuntu, i cant use the cd's, because every time i have to put a new cd in it doesnt auto run, and pretty much just doesnt work, so im downloading the whole game, but its downloading way slow, it says my computers behind a firewall, but i changed the router to all the ports that the downloader uses, and it still downloads slow, any suggestions.
[09:08] <zeroflag> PurpZeY: still the same with -15 kernel...
[09:08] <KevinOman> mkquist:  Im not exactly sure, I know he just wants to see how everything works and he mentioned something about beryl
[09:08] <PurpZeY> zeroflag: Unfortunately, that is probably beyond my scope...But I imagine someone else can help.
[09:09] <ivx> does anyone think that the amd64 version is worth running?
[09:09] <PurpZeY> zeroflag: I just knew of that particular issue with the new kernel
[09:09] <mkquist> Kess - dont see that one working, even if the 'option' is there, a reboot will take u back to regular live cd, and i think that is required to use Beryl
[09:09] <zeroflag> since this is a new system, I'll try and install ubuntu server and upgrade that with gdm. ~~
[09:09] <mkquist> Kess - so it works fine except for Beryl? (god i hate coming into a conversation late... lol)
[09:10] <Niklas-> FKi: you will have to restart the download or wait some time before you are re-announced to the tracker, and people start connecting to you
[09:10] <KevinOman> PurpZeY:  what are you trying to do?
[09:10] <PurpZeY> mkquist: Kess can't even boot into livecd.
[09:10] <mkquist> PurpZey - ty
[09:10] <Kess> hehe I haven't quite got to the point of Beryl, I'm still stuck on getting it to start in anything but safe mode so I can see what Ubuntu is like
[09:10] <PurpZeY> KevinOman: Just trying to help Kaitlyn2004....she says she has a fresh install, but is getting a gnome failure...
[09:10] <Lapinux> ok, is it just me or can you not remove the comments for icons on your gnome panels?
[09:10] <mkquist> Kess - I go back to trying maybe an earlier release, like Edgy.... and thats a maybe
[09:10] <Kess> I suppose I could install it and dive in, but I'd rather not do that while it's still not working
[09:11] <mkquist> Kess - prob a bad idea, i agree, so a pretty new system?
[09:11] <Lapinux> i remove them and they come back.... im not that stupid that i cannot remember what icon does what....
[09:11] <Kaitlyn2004> im at like 2 mins of the orange screen, waiot icon in middle.. before login screen appears
[09:11] <Kess> it's about a year old, which I guess is old for a computer
[09:11] <KevinOman> PurpZeY: hmm im not sure
[09:11] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: Let it do all that, and then login. See where you get from there.
[09:12] <mkquist> Kess - well, not anymore, mines waaayyy older.. lol
[09:12] <KevinOman> I thinks it's a 64 bit problem too
[09:12] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: if it ever loads, sure.. heh
[09:12] <Kess> can I run a different version on here?  This is the one it said I should use for my computer
[09:12] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: If it fails from there, you can boot into the recovery console, and see the gnome log.
[09:12] <mkquist> Kess - yeah sounds like a 64 bit prob to me, its still kinda new i think, Windows has some prob too I've heard, not everything works
[09:13] <Kess> also Mk how do I check exactly which version I'm running again?
[09:13] <shiester_miester> kess, 64 bit OSes are very new and have problems
[09:13] <mkquist> Kess - you can use any live cd, it doesnt matter... its just running in ram
[09:13] <PurpZeY> Kess: I think you can run the x86 version...Maybe I'm wrong, if I am someone smack me.
[09:13] <shiester_miester> kess, 64bit computers can still run 32 bit operating systems though\
[09:13] <Kaitlyn2004> oh man this is ridiculous ... it shouldn't take NEARLY this long! :(
[09:13] <Watermelon2> i think I installed a winxp 64? and it gave me BSOD every 5-10 mins
[09:13] <Kess> I suppose its worth a shot
[09:13] <Cisien> does anyone have a deb for an ipv6 dhcp client?
[09:14] <KevinOman> PurpZeY: I think if you hit escape at grub you can pass certain arguments but I have never used it
[09:14] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: No matter what -- 1) It's theoretically the first login so give it a chance...2) If it does fail, I believe gnome will create a log. Then myself or someone here can help you adjust it.
[09:14] <mkquist> Kess - give one of the others a try, I had that prob a while ago... my old machine fine, the new wouldnt work, now it does great...
[09:14] <Kess> the worst that can happen is a brilliant display of sparks and fire!
[09:14] <mkquist> Kess - or u cant try another distro, like Knoppix to use the live cd to check Linux, odds are it will boot
[09:14] <PurpZeY> KevinOman: Nah, I think it's not necessary...I am just, used to troubleshooting windows after 12 years.
[09:14] <KevinOman> :)
[09:15] <mkquist> i know - offtopic!
[09:15] <PurpZeY> is that off-topic?
[09:15] <mkquist> knoppix?.. i think so...
[09:15] <mkquist> just dont slap me w/a fish... =)
[09:15] <Kess> I'll try the x86 thing first.
[09:16] <PurpZeY> Kess: I am likely the least qualified to say, but I bet it will work.
[09:16] <KevinOman> kess, does it end up at a black screen?
[09:16] <mkquist> Kess- give it a go, little learning curve (little?) from windows, but its fun either way.  Gives you a whole new perspective.
[09:16] <Kess> not anymore
[09:16] <Kess> now ubuntu is giving me the Dusty NES Game stripes
[09:16] <mkquist> kess - (dumb question) So your not in Ubuntu right now?
[09:17] <PurpZeY> Kess: Open the CD drive and blow
[09:17] <Kess> not anymore
[09:17] <Kess> I'm back in windows and am heading to the ubuntu site to get the x86 version
[09:17] <TeraN> Anyone know where i can go for random support? for things like jbouncer?
[09:17] <CarinArr> right. am ever so slightly peed off. in the past the nvidia drivers off nvidia's website have worked fine, as lng as you don't install any of the nvidia packages in ubuntu first. Now they only work until reboot and you have to reinstall them after you've rebooted. I have a feeling that it's because of the nvidia-kernel-common package being installed, but to remove that it wants to remove restricted-modules which I'm pretty sure will make my wireless card
[09:17] <mkquist> Kess - g/l and have fun
[09:17] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: STILL no login.. there is no way it could take this long..
[09:17] <Xteven> hi, does anyone know of a way to run some script when I lock my screen ? I would like to turn down the volume of my soundcard when I do it
[09:18] <Kess> and MK the file name was ubuntu-7.04-desktop-amd64.iso
[09:18] <KevinOman> mkquist:  is there any way to pass kernel arguments off live cd?
[09:18] <PurpZeY> CarinArr: It is very likely kernel related. Just run the old kernel at grub
[09:18] <mkquist> Kess - that would be feisty fawn
[09:18] <mkquist> Kess - newest release
[09:18] <KevinOman> maybe he could try to do noapic or acpi=off
[09:18] <CarinArr> PurpZeY: this is after a clean install, only had two kernels on this install and both are same
[09:18] <PurpZeY> CarinArr: My misunderstanding.
[09:19] <mkquist> KevinOman - im prob the wrong person to ask, but cant you do that on boot by editing the boot options?
[09:19] <KevinOman> that's what I was thinking but im not sure either
[09:19] <PurpZeY> KevinOman: If login is failing completely, and you want to boot to recovery console, how can you then analyze the login/gnome issues?
[09:19] <mkquist> KevinOman - not that ive even tried (or thought about it)
[09:20] <PurpZeY> KevinOman: That is, see the gnome-log?
[09:20] <mkquist> KevinOman - I believe you can
[09:20] <kafran> SunmanXII: http://www.real.com/linux - here too ^^
[09:20] <mkquist> KevinOman - I think thats true w/all the live cds
[09:20] <Lapinux> ok, is it just me or can you not remove the comments for icons on your gnome panels?
[09:20] <KevinOman> PurpZeY:  um during grub you need to make it create a error log
[09:20] <SunmanXII> /quite thanks-all
[09:20] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: I think it's safe to say the login is failing at this point. . .
[09:21] <KevinOman> PurpZeY: im not sure how
[09:21] <Kess> bleh, its gonna take about 40 minutes to download
[09:21] <defcon_> what number permission is this -rw-r--r--
[09:21] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: definitely.. :(
[09:21] <defcon_> where can I find permission examples
[09:21] <PurpZeY> Well, I was just trying to help Kaitlyn2004 a bit, but, it is getting beyond my scope, but I feel like her problems should be resolvable......
[09:21] <KevinOman> something like  "arguments > error.log
[09:22] <Toulouse> ehh guys im overburning a cd, and it doesnt sound good
[09:22] <Toulouse> like in the drive
[09:22] <KevinOman> kess you still here
[09:22] <zeroflag> is that ok if the screen turns red during installation? o_o
[09:22] <Kess> yup
[09:22] <Toulouse> oh, it ejected
[09:22] <Kaitlyn2004> im stumped as to how the install goes so smoothly.. but after that, not a chance..
[09:22] <Kess> I'm here on my laptop while my desktop does all the work
[09:22] <KevinOman> PurpZeY:  they more than likely are, its just beyond my scope to
[09:22] <Kaitlyn2004> IT SHOWED!
 simple enough
[09:22] <zeroflag> "Unable to install initramfs-tools"
[09:22] <KevinOman> ok im gonna reboot real fast hopefully I will have some onfo 4 you when I return
[09:22] <KevinOman> kess
[09:22] <defcon_> I screwed up my permissions from "/" to /home/* what are the default permissions
[09:22] <Kess> alright
[09:23] <Kaitlyn2004> wow it took me forever to type in my username and password haha
[09:23] <Kaitlyn2004> hopefully i'll get the gnome error now
[09:23] <boguh> when will thunderbird 2.0 be in ubuntu 7.04?
[09:23] <TakeOut{u}> drwxr-xr-x 3 phil phil 336 2007-05-31 15:43 phil for /home/phil
[09:23] <PurpZeY> insmod: I still haven't solved that problem....I found there was more involved, and it led me to a dead-end with a acpi driver...
[09:24] <TakeOut{u}> that was for you defcon
[09:24] <Tom47> boguh prob never ... its unlikely to be backported officially as i understand routine policy to be
 what was it ?
[09:24] <CheshireViking> i while ago, i installed lyricue via synaptic, but some of the app's didn't install, now when i install updates, i get an error "E: lyricue-bible-niv: subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 127", i've just removed lyricue via synaptic, is there a way to make sure that the failed parts of the install have been removed to stop the error message coming up?
[09:24] <KevinOman> kess do you have the latest bios for your motherboard?
 ndis?
[09:25] <KevinOman> kess you should check
[09:25] <PurpZeY> insmod: Well, apparently for those wireless drivers, you also need acer_acpi and I couldn't get past that...
[09:25] <KevinOman> brb
[09:25] <elekfs> anyone know of an app off hand that i can monitor the free space of my linux machine on my windows desktop?
 not with the ndiswrapper
[09:26] <Kaitlyn2004> man its taking a while to get this gnome error :(
[09:26] <Lapinux> can someone verify for me if they can remove the icon comments on gpanel is 7.04?
[09:26] <kunal> how do I cancle the supervisor rights to Firestarter
[09:26] <TakeOut{u}> elekfs, there are snmp libraries for linux that you could use
[09:26] <PurpZeY> insmod: I stepped back out of the ndiswrapper issue, and redid it...I think I had cleared it up, but then I realized I needed this other driver anyway...so it was sort of, moot...
[09:26] <Lapinux> *in
[09:26] <wikityler> Is there a hardware log I can use to diagnose whole OS crashes?
[09:26] <kunal> I want to run firestarter from terminal. with our giving sudo command
 can't you load it
[09:27] <PurpZeY> insmod: and the acpi was casuing a similar problem...It was showing up in modprobe -l and also, modinfo, but trying to modprobe it failed. . .
[09:27] <TakeOut{u}> that won't work kunal
[09:27] <elekfs> mmm... to write my own app or what?
 modprobe acer_acpi
insmod -f  acer_acpi
[09:27] <PurpZeY> insmod: I don't have access to that machine right now, but it was telling me "no such device"
[09:27] <Tom47> wikityler:  System>Administrator>System Log  is worth exploring
[09:27] <TakeOut{u}> kunal, you need root access in order to modify ipchains
[09:27] <kunal> can't I type firestarter on terminal window...?
 is it turned off in bios ?
[09:28] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: "There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon"
[09:28] <Kaitlyn2004> last error - did not receive a reply
[09:28] <Maxdamantus> Anyone installed vmware-server on *Ubuntu?
[09:28] <PurpZeY> insmod: Not unless that is default.
[09:28] <TakeOut{u}> kunal, you can, but you will have to be a superuser
[09:28] <Lupoz1> ciao a tutti
[09:28] <Lupoz1> qualke italiano
[09:28] <Lupoz1> ??

[09:29] <Lupoz1> oky
[09:29] <Lupoz1> thx
[09:29] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: Get my msg about the error?
[09:29] <kunal> yes.. sudo is right... but it asks the password.
 and see if dmesg sees it
[09:29] <kunal> I want to avoid it.
[09:29] <TakeOut{u}> and you have to have the password to be superuser
[09:29] <TakeOut{u}> you can't
[09:29] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: Yeah, but that is not helpful for me...It seems someone else may need to help you on this issue
[09:29] <KevinOman> ok im back
[09:30] <Kaitlyn2004> KevinOman: can you help me? :)
[09:30] <Lam_> the three linux-*-generic packages won't upgrade. is that a known problem or am i doing something wrong?
[09:30] <PurpZeY> insmod: I will log/write that down and run them tomorrow.
[09:30] <KevinOman> Kaitlyn2004: what's wrong
[09:30] <Valmarko> Hi. How do I open hidden files and directories using the graphical environment ? thanks
[09:30] <PurpZeY> Lam_: Is it the kernel upgrade?
[09:30] <PurpZeY> Valmark: View --> Hidden Folders
[09:30] <Lam_> PurpZeY: yeah
[09:30] <Kaitlyn2004> KevinOman: I installed just fine (at least so I think) and now when I boot up, it takes FOREVER... FINALLY got past login screen, to gnome error
[09:30] <Maxdamantus> Valmarko, hidden as in .*?
[09:31] <Kaitlyn2004> "erro starting the GNOME Settings Daemon"
[09:31] <Valmarko> as in ./something
[09:31] <Kaitlyn2004> last response - did not receive a reply
[09:31] <PurpZeY> Lam_: Just don't install it. IMO
[09:31] <KevinOman> kess put in your cd hit f6 at the live cd boot screen type noapic and hit enter tell us what that does
[09:31] <Lam_> PurpZeY: lol well it's too late now. :P  oh well i'll just leave it. it's not doing anything destructive at the moment
[09:31] <Kess> still downloading the x86 version
[09:31] <KevinOman> Kaitlyn2004: what the error
[09:31] <PurpZeY> Lam_: I thought you said you couldn't get the packages?
[09:31] <ozfrog> Hi all - a tasty one for this morning _ I'd like to be able to accessa parallel port printer connected to my PC with Ubuntu from my imac/intel - either by WiFi ( FreeBox ) or by Ethernet - what hope?
[09:31] <Kess> I really should use get right for stuff like this
[09:31] <Valmarko> thanks
[09:32] <Lam_> PurpZeY: i $ sudo apt-get upgrade   all available packages and the only three that were "kept back" were linux-headers-generic, linux-image-generic, and linux-restricted-modules-generic
[09:32] <Kaitlyn2004> KevinOman: after FINALLY getting past login screen.. it stayed orange screen for a while.. showed a gray box.. showed ubunut background or wahtever, then the error dialog in the gray area.. "unable to start gnome settings daemon - did not receive a reply" (paraphrased)
[09:33] <PurpZeY> Lam_: Yeah, they didn't install. So, I wouldn't install them. They may be held back at server end...I know there were a bunch of issues with the new kernel...I mean, I don't know if they'd stop distro on them or not...but I wouldn't go out of my way to install them.
[09:33] <KevinOman> Kaitlyn2004: can you boot recovery mode?
[09:33] <Lam_> PurpZeY: alright cool. i'll just leave it as it is then. thanks for the insight
[09:33] <Kess> Kevin do you want me to start it in safe mode when I do this?
[09:34] <Kaitlyn2004> KevinOman: yep.. doing it now
[09:34] <PurpZeY> Lam_: Not a problem....
[09:34] <Kaitlyn2004> KevinOman: okay im there
[09:34] <KevinOman> kess nope just pop in the cd hit f6 then type noapic then enter
[09:36] <Kaitlyn2004> KevinOman: what should I type at the console?
[09:36] <KevinOman> Kaitlyn2004im trying to find a solution for you  look here and see if this is what's happening to you http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2037958
[09:36] <sgrove> hey all, I'm trying to fix up an older machin to install feisty on it, but I hooked up another monitor and it's very strange, like it's cut in half, and the bottom half is on the top of the screen and the top on the bottom
[09:37] <sgrove> any common, quick solution for this?
[09:37] <agn0stic> sgrove: dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg might do it
[09:37] <agn0stic> sgrove: need to do that when you hook up a new monitor sometimes
[09:38] <Kaitlyn2004> KevinOman: I suppose similar.. he says it happened all of a sudden.. I get LAGGY login screen and once I get past that, that's when it happens.. always
[09:38] <PurpZeY> Anyone know if the repositories are now holding back with the new kernel because of the problems?
[09:38] <sgrove> great, I'll try that
[09:38] <Kess> Kevin: same green/purple NES stripes
[09:38] <agn0stic> purpzey: they weren't earlier today
[09:39] <CheshireViking> Kaitlyn2004, just jumping in here because I've had the gnome settings error in the past, are booting from the live cd or from an installed copy of ubuntu? i got the error only when booting from the livecd & had to use the alternate cd to install
[09:39] <KevinOman> kess can you try again the same thing but type acpi=off
[09:39] <PurpZeY> agn0stic: Yeah...Someone just said that they went to install them and that the kernel packages wouldn't download...
[09:39] <Kaitlyn2004> CheshireViking: After install... not from cd (install went fine)... and I tried the alternate cd
[09:39] <PurpZeY> CheshireViking: It's an instlal
[09:40] <kiwiturnAUS> hey people , when trying to install the KDE desktop in ubuntu i get asked to insert my install cd , which i do but the default cd drive is well ... non existant i can see my other working cd drive but cant select to open it from , so is there a way to change the default cd drive ? thanks

[09:40] <CheshireViking> Kaitlyn2004, PurpZeY, ok, just thought i'd ask the question, i'll go back to sleep for a bit now
[09:41] <Kaitlyn2004> I blame the computer though, cause it freezes trying to load of linspire
[09:41] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: I can't speak for anyone else but myself, but my knowledge is limited...there might be someone else who would know in the chan, at another time.
[09:41] <KevinOman> kess when that doesn't work I have something else for you to try
[09:41] <KevinOman> :)
[09:42] <Kess> does it involve hammers?

[09:43] <KevinOman> Kaitlyn2004:  what time zone you in
[09:43] <Kess> NES stripes again!  What's next?
[09:43] <Kaitlyn2004> oh yes, its 3am here. :)
[09:43] <Kaitlyn2004> 4 almost
[09:43] <_Codeman_> Is this the right place to ask questions about asking questions?
[09:43] <_Codeman_> lol j/k
[09:44] <PurpZeY> Kaitlyn2004: Try in early afternoonish. . .
[09:44] <Kaitlyn2004> PurpZeY: alrighty thanks
[09:44] <Kaitlyn2004> KevinOman: thanks u too
[09:44] <_Codeman_> does Ubuntu have FTPFS?
[09:44] <kiwiturnAUS> does anyone know ho to change the default cd drive ?
[09:44] <KevinOman> ok boot the cd and hit f4 try changing the resolution
[09:44] <KevinOman> kess
[09:44] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, remove the cd rom from your apt sourcers
[09:45] <Kess> ok, I think I know which one it wants too
[09:45] <kiwiturnAUS> beford: can i have a bit more info i only installed ubuntu abount 2 weeks ago :(
[09:45] <Kess> my monitor kept telling me something about it not being optimized and recommended 1600x1200
[09:45] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, ok, hold on
[09:45] <kiwiturnAUS> k thanks
[09:46] <KevinOman> kess try 1280 x 1024
[09:46] <KevinOman> or 1024x 768 would be the lesser one
[09:46] <devin_> need some help with video drivers?
[09:46] <Kess> ok, I already started loading with the 1600 one though.  I'll restart as soon as this doesn't work, or does work
[09:46] <KevinOman> do you have a widescreen
[09:46] <Kess> nope
[09:47] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager
[09:47] <KevinOman> the 1600 one probably won't work then
[09:47] <PurpZeY> My lappy runs at 1600
[09:47] <KevinOman> really?
[09:47] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, it'll ask you for your password, then Settings -> Repositories
[09:47] <devin_> when i start X it goes blank, can someone help me fix the conf?
[09:47] <KevinOman> I thought that was wide screen
[09:47] <mangaAddict> hmm anyone figure out how to be able to set the resolution higher than 1024x768?
[09:48] <PurpZeY> KevinOman: I'm not on it as of this second, but I know that it doesn't run 1260, or 800 etc....
[09:48] <mangaAddict> ehh you got to run the graphic wizard thing again
[09:48] <PurpZeY> KevinOman: It also has a really large screen.
[09:48] <devin_> the laptop i'm trying to fix has 16x12 and it goes to that rez by defult
[09:48] <kiwiturnAUS> yep there
[09:48] <_Codeman_> It's my understanding (after a quick google) that curlftpfs would allow me to locally "mount" an ftp account, is that correct?
[09:48] <KevinOman> mangaAddict: you have to run dpkg reconfigure xserver-xorg or something like that
[09:49] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, ok, check the second tab, third party software, check if there is an entry for your cdrom, or something like that
[09:49] <mangaAddict> bah did that killed my linux lol but fixed it after would
[09:49] <KevinOman> and select the resolutions you want from the list
[09:49] <mangaAddict> don't know how to change the hsync and that
[09:49] <Reilithion> mangaAddict: KevinOman: it's dpkg-reconfigure.  The dash is important
[09:49] <mangaAddict> what you select simple medium or advance?
[09:49] <KevinOman> Reilithion: ahh thank you
[09:50] <lach> howdy all
[09:50] <Kess> heheh NES stripes of a different color with the 1600 resolution.  They're thick purple ones, with black stripes between them
[09:50] <KevinOman> mangaAddict: I just hit enter through the hsync and stuff
[09:50] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, if there is an entry, select it, and remove it
[09:50] <mangaAddict> hmm i go run it not currently on my linux computer thats down till i get a modem routar
[09:50] <KevinOman> but that's what I did and it worked
[09:50] <lach> where can i get a viewport manager that will allow me to have different backgrounds for my mutliple desktop
[09:50] <kiwiturnAUS> befor: no there isn't any entries
[09:51] <KevinOman> kess try 1280x1024 or 1024x768 or 800x600
[09:51] <Kess> trying 1024x768 now
[09:51] <CheshireViking> Kaitlyn2004, if you're still around, i was just looking on ubuntuforums about the error & found this thread, maybe there's something in it that'll help http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=406054
[09:51] <Reilithion> KevinOman: That sounds a bit dangerous.  If the program doesn't detect your settings correctly (rare but possible), it could really mess up your screen.
[09:51] <ph8> hi all
[09:51] <Kess> also does color depth make a difference?  I picked 16 this time
[09:51] <devin_> dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg worked
[09:51] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, ok, do you know the mount path of your cdrom drive? /media/xx ?
[09:52] <ph8> i'm playing with my new pc, had a bit of a mare installing ubuntu - the alternate CD finally worked in text only install mode - but i can't boot using the normal kernel to the OS
[09:52] <ph8> it appears i can use the recovery kernel, and even get kdm started - is there a way to get it to detect my network card? there should be wireless and eth0 on board the mobo
[09:52] <devin_> what driver should i set the geforce 4 go in my dimension 8100?
[09:52] <kiwiturnAUS> beford : do u mean like: CD-RW/DVDRW Drive
[09:52] <kiwiturnAUS> ?
[09:52] <KevinOman> Reilithion:  what sounds dangerous? I think he's got a normal 4:3 screen
[09:53] <mangaAddict> hmm
[09:53] <mangaAddict> i got a speific a package to reconfigure
[09:53] <KevinOman> well maybe 1280x 1024 but in my expierence it doesn't do any harm just looks messed up
[09:53] <mangaAddict> when i did sudo dpkg-reconfigure
[09:53] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, no, like, you said that it was asking you for the cd right? what does it tells you?
[09:54] <Reilithion> KevinOman: +shrugs+  I've just heard about bad things happening if a program tries to set horizontal and vertical sync rates outside what the monitor can tolerate.  Without good safeties in place, I've heard it can cause real damage.
[09:54] <KevinOman> kess with 16 color depth you are taking half the colors away, it will not hurt
[09:54] <kiwiturnAUS> it sais please insert ubuntu 7.04 into cd-rom 1
[09:54] <PurpZeY> Reilithion: But it seems that, this is a reconfig, so that if you didn't touch anything and just hit enter, nothing would change.
[09:54] <Reilithion> please correct me if I'm wrong, tho
[09:54] <wwl910> gg
[09:54] <devin_> I don't want the package for xserver-orgx to reconfigure it, I want it to auto detect what it orginally had
[09:54] <kiwiturnAUS> i insert cd hit enter and it repeats this line
[09:55] <KevinOman> Reilithion:  oh your talking about him :) when you hit enter through those doesn't it enter in failsafe defaults?
[09:55] <lach> how can i have different backgroundsnfor my desktops
[09:55] <Kess> Kiwi how many cd drives do you have?
[09:55] <wwl910> 3
[09:55] <PurpZeY> lach: Download a pic you like...System --> Prefs --> Desktop Background
[09:55] <mangaAddict> reilithion i try the sudo dpkg-reconfigure and it said "speific package to reconfigure"
[09:55] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, ok try this in a terminal window, grep cdrom /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:55] <KevinOman> PurpZeY:  I think you are right
[09:55] <Reilithion> KevinOman: I've never had much faith in the term "failsafe".  Not since the Mythbusters drove a car off of an entire airfield TWICE.
[09:56] <KevinOman> lol
[09:56] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, whats the output?
[09:56] <kiwiturnAUS> 1 sec
[09:56] <KevinOman> any luck kess?
[09:56] <Kess> Kevin I can sort of kind of see the ubuntu desktop but it's really messed up.  IT would make a pretty sweet wallpaper if it didn't also distort everything else on the screen
[09:56] <KevinOman> hmm
[09:57] <kiwiturnAUS> output : # deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.04 _Feisty Fawn_ - Release i386 (20070415)] / feisty main restricted
[09:57] <kiwiturnAUS> deb cdrom:[Ubuntu 7.04 _Feisty Fawn_ - Release i386 (20070415)] / feisty main restricted
[09:57] <PurpZeY> Kess: That's how it supposed to look. If you could navigate easily, it would be fun.
[09:57] <PurpZeY> *wouldn't*
[09:57] <KevinOman> kess what resolution did you use this time?
[09:57] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, 2 lines? only one of those has the # at the start right?
[09:58] <Kess> 1024x768x16
[09:58] <KevinOman> kess what resolution do you use in windows?
[09:58] <kiwiturnAUS> yes
[09:58] <kiwiturnAUS> correct
[09:58] <Kess> 1024x768x32
[09:58] <vbanait> hi
[09:58] <KooNiBerT> Tag
[09:58] <vbanait> I installed gnumed on ubuntu 7.07
[09:58] <KooNiBerT> Hello
[09:58] <Kess> Should I match them?
[09:58] <KevinOman> kess does it look messed up like there aren't enough colors?
[09:58] <KevinOman> yes
[09:58] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, ok, now we are going to edit this file,and put the # at the start of the line that says, deb cdrom.... that way it wont ask you for the cd to install
[09:58] <KevinOman> 32 bit is what you will want
[09:59] <PurpZeY> Side question for anyone who knows, is there a way to access the channel/IRC server, if you're at a location with IRC ports blocked?
[09:59] <KooNiBerT> Anyone who can help me with a little problem ? :)
[09:59] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, sudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:59] <PurpZeY> !anyone | KooNiBerT
[09:59] <ubotu> KooNiBerT: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[09:59] <Kess> no everything is too colorful.  It's hard to describe
[09:59] <KooNiBerT> ok :p
[09:59] <kiwiturnAUS> yep
[09:59] <KevinOman> kess though im not sure if it will fix your problem
[09:59] <lach> my other desktops cant have backgrounds
[09:59] <lach> there just black
[09:59] <vbanait> Hi I installed gnumed on ubuntu 7.07. After starting a login procedure, a get following error.
[09:59] <PurpZeY> lach: Download a pic you like...System --> Prefs --> Desktop Background
[09:59] <kiwiturnAUS> yep its opened sorces.list
[09:59] <KevinOman> kess then try 800x600x32 you can't go wrong there
[10:00] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, just put # at the start of the line that says debcdrom:... and save it
[10:00] <Kess> ok
[10:00] <KooNiBerT> I have a Thinkpad T23 and tried to enable DRI with the Xfree86 package. Since i installed it my Xserver won't start!

[10:00] <Kess> while it loads up I'm going to afk
[10:00] <lach> yeah i cant
[10:00] <lach> that options isnt there

[10:00] <kiwiturnAUS> ok ill try it again
[10:00] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, again?
[10:00] <PurpZeY> lach: are you running gnome?
[10:01] <KooNiBerT> Is there any possibility to let Ubuntu get the right informations automaticly or something like a system restore ?
[10:01] <KooNiBerT> yes im running gnome
[10:01] <Madpilot> KooNiBerT, why are you using XFree86? Ubuntu has used Xorg for two years now...
[10:01] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, you only need to comment (put the #) in the line that says cdrom
[10:01] <KooNiBerT> You have too know.. Im a big Ubuntu and Linux noob. This is my second day as a better OS User :p
[10:01] <mangaAddict> bah
[10:01] <mangaAddict> it didn't work
[10:01] <lach> purp - i think so, ive just installded ubuntu 7.04 and beryl
[10:02] <mangaAddict> i try and selected 1280x1024 and it didn't work :/

[10:02] <kiwiturnAUS> ok
[10:02] <KooNiBerT> yeah that's exactly what i need
[10:02] <Kess> Kevin: I have never had good luck with updating my bios.  Bad things tend to happen that end up with my computer becoming a paper weight
[10:02] <PurpZeY> lach: This sounds like a beryl issue. Right click on beryl-manager, and select window manager as gtk
[10:02] <kiwiturnAUS> i mean ill try installind KDE again
[10:02] <KevinOman> mangaAddict:  did you press the space bar when your certain resolution was selected?

[10:02] <devin_> and i ran through the configure
[10:02] <KooNiBerT> I also tried to do this
[10:03] <mangaAddict> but i selected the 1280-1024 and it didn't work

[10:06] <devin_> anyone know how to reauto detect graphics and monitors?
[10:06] <lizili> kiwiturnAUS: restart you computer and it will ok !
[10:06] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, erm dont restart
[10:06] <KevinOman> goodnight good luck kess
[10:06] <PurpZeY> KooNiBerT: Just check synaptic...it will most certainly be in there...There is also a way to search installed packages via term. but I don't know what it is, and I am absolutely shot...it is 4a.m. here too....
[10:06] <kiwiturnAUS> WHAT SHOULD I DO THEN ?
[10:07] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, how are you installing kde? terminal, or synaptic?
[10:07] <CheshireViking> kiwiturnAUS, have you got synaptic open and using apt-get at the same time?
[10:07] <kiwiturnAUS> terminal
[10:07] <Watermelon2> close synaptic manager?
[10:07] <KooNiBerT> Synaptic ? what's that :o
[10:07] <mangaAddict> bahahah
[10:07] <devin_> what do i need to edit at the boot for it to auto dectect the hardware and configure it agian?
[10:07] <mangaAddict> nah it could be your synaptic is updating in the background
[10:07] <Watermelon2> or find its session in 'system monitor' or something?
[10:08] <lizili> no need ,restart your computer it will be ok .
[10:08] <zeroflag> greaaaaaaaat... ubuntu server installation = frozen.
[10:08] <Madpilot> KooNiBerT, System->Admin->Synaptic Packagge Manager
[10:08] <Watermelon2> hehe
[10:08] <devin_> everytime i restart, it comes back as the same rez
[10:08] <devin_> i want the old driver and the 1600x1200 native rez
[10:08] <Watermelon2> my 6.10 to 7.04 upgrade ended up as "I am aware that this is a very bad idea"
[10:09] <devin_> restarting it doesn't change anything
[10:09] <kiwiturnAUS> beford : i think its working now
[10:09] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, cool
[10:09] <KooNiBerT> I can't get there because Gnome doesn't start guys, i only have this DOS like Terminal here
[10:09] <KooNiBerT> Xserver says "No screen found"
[10:10] <kiwiturnAUS> beford : so basically the# indicated which was default or what ?
[10:10] <lizili> ubuntu is not so steady ,you can restart the system and you will update ok
[10:10] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, the # means that it will ignore that line
[10:10] <devin_> hey, how do i get it to reconfigure the hardware?
[10:11] <kiwiturnAUS> oh ok right
[10:11] <kiwiturnAUS> so now i should only have an # infront of one of them correct ?
[10:11] <devin_> what if i delete the xorg conf file?
[10:11] <devin_> will it auto detect and make a new one?
[10:12] <CheshireViking> !xconfig | devin
[10:12] <ubotu> devin: To reconfigure your X server, open a console and type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  - To configure only the driver and resolution, type  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg -phigh  - See also !FixRes

[10:12] <beford> kiwiturnAUS, uhm, well, yea, it doesnt care, you can delete that line too, since its not being used, I just asked you to comment it, that way, if you ever need it, you only need to remove the # and sudo apt-get update again
[10:12] <_Shade_> hi there
[10:13] <beford> KooNiBerT, sudo apt-cache search xfree
[10:13] <KooNiBerT> thx
[10:13] <beford> KooNiBerT, you are trying to get the name of xfree package to remove it right?
[10:13] <KooNiBerT> yeah
[10:13] <_Shade_> where should i put the "pppd call --connection-name--" so as to be able to connect on startup?
[10:13] <KooNiBerT> that's what i want to do
[10:13] <agn0stic> beford: you don't need sudo to apt-cache search
[10:14] <beford> agn0stic, ah, ok
[10:14] <KooNiBerT> do you know the name of the package ?
[10:15] <beford> KooNiBerT, no, let me check
[10:15] <KooNiBerT> k :)
[10:15] <vbanait> hello, i installed gnumed on ubuntu 7.07. I need to establish database connection. Please help
[10:16] <neztiti> can some one help tell me why kaffeine boot for me
[10:16] <beford> KooNiBerT, ok, I cant find it, are you sure its xfree86, and not xorg?
[10:16] <kiwiturnAUS> bedford : thanks a million 4 all your help mate !!
[10:17] <KooNiBerT> that's the problem i have both installed oO
[10:17] <agn0stic> koonibert: you using 7.07 I assume? it should be xserver-xorg if it's xfree the package is xserver-xfree86
[10:17] <KooNiBerT> my plan is too unistall xorg AND xfree and after this reinstalling Xorg
[10:17] <KooNiBerT> Feisty Fawn
[10:17] <KooNiBerT> ok
[10:18] <beford> _Shade_, did you try to put it in System -> Preferences -> Sessions, there is an option for startup programs
[10:18] <Noah0504> Hello, all.
[10:18] <niru_> ubuntu is going with unstable packages like gnome 2.18 etc
[10:18] <agn0stic> koonibert: i have no clue what happens if you install xorg and xfree......i don't imagine it's pretty though. I wouldn't have thought you could install both of them at the same time
[10:18] <devin_> hey CheshireViking thanks for your help man
[10:18] <CheshireViking> devin_, no probs, did it work?
[10:18] <KooNiBerT> Hm.. it says that i don't have installed Xfree :o
[10:18] <KooNiBerT> Now im confused
[10:18] <niru_> then what about the stability
[10:19] <Watermelon2> Thanks for the help Flannel,I'll look for amsn's channel and see if they have a solution to my tls1.5 problem,since it seems it's not a ubuntu64 specified problem.
[10:19] <devin_> yeah CheshireViking just wondering if the nv is the right driver to use for a geforce go 4 440
[10:19] <KooNiBerT> Ok my problem is that Xserver won't start because "No screens found"
[10:19] <niru_> what about the security updates
[10:19] <_Shade_> beford: but it's not a program... i'd like to start my internet connection during boot
[10:19] <KooNiBerT> I thaugt Xfree was the problem but it isnt
[10:20] <beford> _Shade_, pppd is a program
[10:20] <agn0stic> koonibert: try dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg?
[10:20] <KooNiBerT> already tried
[10:20] <devin_> i mean it works alright, just wondering if it gives me the best performence
[10:20] <CheshireViking> devin_, i would start with the nv driver, i don't think you get 3d working with it, but it'll get X working, then you can upgrade to nvidia drivers via synaptic
[10:20] <KooNiBerT> It doesn't automaticly get the information of my display
[10:20] <KooNiBerT> but i tried to manualy set up them
[10:20] <KooNiBerT> maybe there's the problem
[10:20] <devin_> well thats the thing CheshireViking the whole xserver went black once i tried to enable byrl and it says it needed to change out the drivers
[10:21] <agn0stic> koonibert: ooh boy. could you pastebin your /etc/X11/xorg.conf? the problem is almost definately in there
[10:21] <Nostferka> Question: How do i get my ubuntu to kubuntu
[10:21] <Nostferka> apt-get install ??
[10:21] <KooNiBerT> Post it here in icq ?
[10:21] <beford> Nostferka, sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[10:21] <_Shade_> beford: i haven't tried... i had that in /etc/init-d/boot,local in edgy but there's no such file in feisty

[10:21] <KooNiBerT> But i can't because IRC is running on another PC
[10:21] <Nostferka> beford: and it wont screw up my normal ubuntu with gnome?
[10:21] <KooNiBerT> xD
[10:22] <Noah0504> Does anyone know how to sync music to an iPod running Rockbox?
[10:22] <insmod> gnome sucks
[10:22] <CheshireViking> devin_, i'm not certain then, that sounds like its beryl related, you can only try it, but i wouldn't like to say whether it'll work
[10:23] <devin_> damn now whenever i log in to the account it restarts after 5 secs
[10:23] <beford> Nostferka, no, once installed, you need to logout from Gnome to use kde, in the login screen, you have an option to select KDE or gnome, its called sessions, or something like that
[10:23] <insmod> blackbox windowmaker  enlightenment and xfce
[10:23] <Nostferka> ty beford
[10:23] <samitheberber> Noah0504: You can transfer the music files direct on your iPod
[10:24] <agn0stic> koonibert: hit up the private chat, window here is noisy
[10:24] <Noah0504> samitheberber: Yes, I know, and that's what I do now... but it would be nice to be able to sync my music folder.  Then I don't have to worry about keeping up with it manually.
[10:24] <KooNiBerT> How to open Xorg.conf in Terminal ? what's the command.. i already cd to the folder
[10:24] <KooNiBerT> Private Chat with you ?

[10:25] <beford> zeroflag, ubuntu-desktop ?
[10:25] <TakeOut{u}> ubuntu-desktop
[10:25] <CheshireViking> devin_, maybe you need to uninstall beryl or at least switch the window manager back to metacity from command line
[10:25] <zeroflag> right, thanks. -_-
[10:25] <TakeOut{u}> sorry before, lag
[10:25] <Cisien_> when i start ubuntu after the first boot with the nvidia driver, the screen is black

[10:27] <CheshireViking> devin_, ok, i was thinking that you'd started it originally giving you the black screen & now xorg is set to nv that beryl was still trying to start
[10:27] <beford> KooNiBerT, you need to register your nick in order to use private messaging, or dcc transfers

[10:27] <CheshireViking> devin_, when you start up/try logging into gnome, can you select metacity as the window manager?
[10:28] <devin_> CheshireViking, well orginally I was fine, then when i tried to start byrle it said it needed to restart to swap the drivers then i needed to activate beryl
[10:28] <hylje> Vanprist: woodcrests are xeons?

[10:33] <linux_user400354> i am trying to figure out what key brings up a boot menu when my computers starting that will let me choose which hard drive to boot from and other devices. how can i know what key it is?
[10:33] <Revellion> linux_user400354: machine type?
[10:33] <devin_> F12
[10:33] <devin_> probably
[10:33] <Revellion> linux_user400354: a lot of somewhat modern machines has F12 or F11 as that option
[10:33] <Revellion> linux_user400354: or in the case of IBM Thinkpads the ThinkVantage button to trigger boot menu :\
[10:33] <magnetron> linux_user400354: other computers has the DEL key for that
[10:34] <CheshireViking> linux_user400354, some machines use the "Delete" button, or F2

[10:34] <linux_user400354> Revellion  fic motherboard model an19c
[10:35] <CheshireViking> linux_user400354, you probably need to change the boot order in bios
[10:35] <linux_user400354> no, thats not it
[10:35] <Cisien_> so,whats the deal with the geforce 8800 bug?
[10:36] <neztiti> any help???
[10:36] <devin_> pmo built in mics like on laptops, should already work, because their wired with the mic port, the only way their disabled is in the OS or by plugging in a mic

[10:38] <yagami> is it possible to use twin view with ati 9200 Se cards using AIGLX?
[10:38] <devin_> if that does work then i doupt your mic is on a seperate sound card

[10:40] <yagami> anyone? ati...errr.. and twin view- is it possible?
[10:41] <pmo> Alsa mixer says Ext Mic and Int Mic aswell.
[10:41] <devin_> even if you scream into it you get no input from the buit it?
[10:41] <devin_> it wouldn't make sense to have a mic on a seperate soundcard
[10:41] <pmo> nope
[10:41] <devin_> ah
[10:41] <pmo> its a laptop
[10:41] <devin_> they are differn't ports
[10:41] <pmo> oh
[10:41] <devin_> usally i see it as the same port
[10:42] <orac7000> I have just come back to this machine after some time away, when the last update came down with 2.6.20-16-generic, my system won't boot, waht have I missed?
[10:42] <devin_> but when you plug in
[10:42] <devin_> the electric current in there is shorted
[10:42] <devin_> pmo if the mixers says theres an internal i know this is stupid
[10:42] <devin_> bu have you set that one to be the recording devicE?
[10:42] <pmo> hehe the sound thing aint normal, spdif, sterio mics etc.
[10:43] <pmo> yes i have :)
[10:43] <pmo> IntMic is ticked
[10:43] <devin_> stero mic is normal thats your stero output and spdif is optical ouput which is norm
[10:43] <devin_> wait
[10:43] <devin_> did you select ext mic then unplug the ext and try recording?
[10:43] <magnetron> !enter

[10:44] <_Ben_> Hi. My server is behind a DSL modem that doesn't support bridging properly, so it's had to be assigned an ip on my network (192.168.2.4) rather than my public IP which resolves to my domain name. As a sideaffect, the server constantly reports 'Hostname: Unknown host' and some things fail to install properly. Any ideas on how I might improve my configuration?
[10:44] <devin_> and you've tried stero mic to?
[10:44] <foug_> anyone know the command for bittornado? trying to add it to the "Open With" menu

[10:45] <hydan> i'm trying to install a game and the first command to issue after making sure you have autoconf, automake, and aclocal is "sh bootstrap", and when i do this i get the error message "sh: Can't open bootstrap". Any advice?
[10:45] <devin_> you said you have 2 mics on the laptop
[10:45] <devin_> built in
[10:45] <pmo> yea
[10:45] <magnetron> !enter > devin_
[10:45] <devin_> and you have a record option called mic stereo
[10:45] <devin_> lol
[10:46] <pmo> ubuntu doesnt give me that
[10:46] <dirkson> hydan, Well, is there something called "bootstrap" listed with ls? : )
[10:46] <ubutom> hey, i want to hide all desktop symbols, how do i do that? thx
[10:46] <hydan> nope
[10:46] <hydan> dirkson, nope
[10:46] <hydan> i figured it was an internal command
[10:47] <hydan> i've already ./configure
[10:47] <magnetron> ubutom: use gconf-editor for that
[10:47] <hydan> that worked fine
[10:47] <devin_> what was your mic set to in windowz? pmo?
[10:47] <dirkson> hydan, Nope : ) Anything with "sh" or ./ in front of it is going to be a file in the directory you're working in.
[10:47] <ubutom> thx magnetron
[10:47] <pmo> what do you mean by set to? it just worked there hehe
[10:47] <snuff> I just installed ubuntu 7.04 server edition (left the default dns server option checked) and it came up in console mode - I was expect a GUI. Is console usual?
[10:47] <dirkson> hydan, Try typing "make" now. (Without quotes, yadayada)
[10:48] <hydan> dirkson, i've tried that
[10:48] <dirkson> hydan, It complains that there's nothing to make?
[10:48] <biberao> hi
[10:48] <hydan> "no targets specified and no makefile found." h/e i see a makefile
[10:49] <kahrytan> ubutom: You can use gconf to move close button to left too.
[10:49] <xenoix> anyone know of any good servers you can install that allow a user to login to my computer and let them create files and everything from there computer AND logs the login time and logout time?
[10:49] <hydan> makefile.am and makefile.in
[10:49] <xenoix> but not VNC
[10:49] <hydan> and an "install-sh"
[10:49] <dirkson> hydan, Curious. Well, try the install-sh:    ./install-sh
[10:49] <HiddenHax> after force closing  a game my screen fades to darkness then to normal why?
[10:49] <hydan> yep
[10:49] <dirkson> hydan, This /shouldn't/ work, but it might : ) What game is this?
[10:49] <hydan> dirkson, i've tried that too :P
[10:50] <hydan> blobby something
[10:50] <hydan> blobby volley
[10:50] <dirkson> hydan, Cool. What game? Is it Free?
[10:50] <hydan> dirkson,  of course! :P
[10:50] <xenoix> anyone?
[10:51] <dirkson> hydan, *grins* Good. My system's a bit crippled, but I should be able to do a test on this. url?
[10:51] <hydan> sure

[10:51] <HiddenHax> after closing  a game my screen fades to darkness then to normal why?
[10:52] <dirkson> hydan, *blinks* Why don't you just use the .deb?
[10:52] <hydan> dirkson, and http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Blobby_volley_2
[10:52] <hydan> ...
[10:52] <hydan> dirkson, i didn't see the deb
[10:52] <hydan> ..
[10:53] <hydan> aah lol
[10:53] <dirkson> hydan, *grins* It's top listing on the download page : ) You know how to install foreign debs?
[10:53] <hydan> dirkson, ummm no
[10:54] <hydan> dirkson, i'm not sure how to remove .deb installs, that's why i'm a little iffy about them
[10:54] <hydan> i believe i did see the .deb file
[10:54] <dirkson> hydan, Download it, open terminal, run: dpkg -i NAMEOFTHE.DEB          Ahhh, gotcha. Lemme check on that real quick
[10:54] <cafuego> hydan: via apt-get remove
[10:54] <cafuego> hydan: ... or synapti,. or aptitude..
[10:55] <hydan> really
[10:55] <hydan> wow
[10:55] <cafuego> The installs that are NOT .deb is what you worry about.
[10:55] <pmo> devin_ perhaps i should use winehq ^^
[10:55] <hydan> let's try this.
[10:55] <hydan> :)
[10:55] <dirkson> *thinks about this* Yup, that should be correct
[10:55] <_Ben_> Hrm. This is a bit of a noob question and I've actually confused myself. I've got a domain name, my ip resolves to it, and I'm running BIND on my server. What should I set the hostname of my server to so the hostname is valid? It should be noted that my server has an internal (192.168.2.4) IP address rather than the public ip.
[10:55] <dirkson> hydan, There ya' go : )
[10:55] <_Ben_> If that makes sense.

[10:59] <wastedfluid> Does Dapper come with a suspend feature?  I'm only seeing hibernate.. and I still can't get hibernate to work >:|
[10:59] <cafuego> it'd be interesting, but i have no time (or brainpower)
[10:59] <neztiti> cafuego:just i installed mythtv and removed it
[10:59] <K99Brain> hi
[11:00] <sharperguy> anyone know where iptables keeps its logs?
[11:01] <cafuego> neztiti: mythtv needs a mysql server to store information about channels and recordings, the erro you get is caused by mysql not running.
[11:01] <cafuego> sharperguy: kernel logs - kern.log
[11:01] <sharperguy> whats the log folder again? lol

[11:03] <kaouete> hi
[11:04] <NV> Hi! I recently installed ubuntu server 7.04. My problem now is: how do I install MySQL (or any other free SQL-Server)?
[11:04] <cafuego> You can, but keep in mind those are the transaction logs. If the DB breaks, you won't be able to restore. Make sure mysqld is stopped when deleting them. (You can set their maximum size in /etc/mysql/my.cnf)
[11:04] <cafuego> NV: sudo apt-get install mysql-server
[11:04] <stu> s
[11:04] <NV> oooh thats the name of it.... thanks
[11:04] <Frogzoo> sharperguy: syslog probly by default
[11:05] <cafuego> NV: 'apt-cache search <string>' is sueful :-)
[11:05] <stu> say if the MySQL server is for Myth then you could just install the meta package for Myth
[11:05] <stu> if the MySQL server is for Myth then you could just install the meta package for Myth
[11:05] <NV> cafuego: thanks, been searching for that command.
[11:05] <gyl> is there something else beside vino? ( something like remote desktop from windows )?
[11:06] <madmojo> irc is as alien to me as liniux
[11:06] <kaouete> Since today, i don't know why, accentued characters in bold Times New Roman are not well rendered in OpenOffice.org in feisty, has someone experienced something like that ? It is working well on every other computer i have (one gentoo and a mac os x, both with openoffice)
[11:06] <Whiz2> i have a major problem
[11:06] <stu> rdesktop
[11:06] <cafuego> gyl: Like actual remote desktop? rdp? tsclient :-)  Also VNC.
[11:06] <Whiz2> after recently installing a new system with an extra GB of space, that GB is now completely gone for no apparent reason, and now i can't even login to my desktop.
[11:06] <gyl> cafuego : tsclient? is ok? cos vnc it's lagged
[11:07] <stu> yes rdesktop also supports vnc aswell. or if your a kde user you can use krdc
[11:07] <madmojo> I have had loads of major problems, now im pretty fast at wipe and install
[11:07] <venice> nite alll
[11:07] <gyl> cafuego: right now I'm connection from my windows box -> linux ( and is only 1meter betwhen them)
[11:07] <gyl> connecting*
[11:07] <gyl> I'm tired.
[11:08] <Frogzoo> Whiz2: did you allocate only 20gig?
[11:08] <madmojo> im still waiting for the blue screen of death
[11:08] <_Ben_> Sorry to repeat myself... This is a bit of a noob question and I've actually confused myself. I've got a domain name, my ip resolves to it, and I'm running BIND on my server. What should I set the hostname of my server to so the hostname is valid? It should be noted that my server has an internal (192.168.2.4) IP address rather than the public ip.
[11:08] <Whiz2> Frogzoo: allocate?
[11:08] <madmojo> maybe theres a program i can install that for me
[11:08] <stu> sorry I understood it as Linux > Windows.   If its the other way then vino-server is quite capable. but you will need to setup you environment for it and the Xdisplay port
[11:09] <madmojo> azureus crashes and frostwire hangs
[11:09] <gyl> stu : on linux is installed vino-server and I'm conecting from my windows box
[11:09] <afief> is there ANY web browser that actually releases memory when tabs are closed? gecko based ones don't seem to
[11:09] <madmojo> but the alternatives work fine
[11:09] <Frogzoo> Whiz2: this partition is only 20gigs, yes?
[11:09] <Whiz2> Frogzoo: I have a 4.2 GB drive updated from a 3.2 GB drive (that's not including the 2GB that the swap file takes)
[11:10] <NV> another thing... Can Ubuntu server installation mess with youre CD-drive?
[11:10] <stu> so when vino-server is started it should tell you that it is running on display:[port number]   eg: display:1
[11:10] <Frogzoo> Whiz2: you can get by with 1gig swap, btw
[11:10] <madmojo> it wont break it if thats what you mean
[11:10] <Frogzoo> Whiz2: did you use gparted to expand the file system ?
[11:10] <stu> so when you vnc from windows to it you should put in eg:   192.168.1.1:0
[11:10] <gyl> stu: yes it's working vino-server but it's lagged
[11:11] <ph8> anyone know what the 'quiet' option does in the kernel boot ops?
[11:11] <stu> lagged?  you mean slow?
[11:11] <ph8> * opts
[11:11] <Whiz2> Frogzoo: yeah i know. haven't gotten around to changing the size of the swap file. Yes the partition takes up the entire free space of the drive
[11:11] <Frogzoo> ph8: suppresses boot messages
[11:15] <gyl> stu : exactly
[11:15] <ph8> does nosplash override it? or do ineed to remove quiet
[11:15] <madmojo> im still trying to get my Beos running right, cant seem to find the tech dept
[11:15] <ph8> argh, my typing's terrible today
[11:15] <Whiz2> Frogzoo: I checked the drive's free space after changing everything over using the command line, and was told by the system that I had a GB free
[11:15] <stu> can you check your vnc preferences in windows and make sure there's no funny encryption set
[11:15] <Whiz2> Frogzoo: now all of a sudden i have nothing free... this is after about a month
[11:15] <madmojo> i nerve ahve a prooblem weth tipping
[11:15] <nomad111> hey all
[11:15] <madmojo> but other people have a problem reading it
[11:15] <gyl> stu : checked nothing strange
[11:15] <Whiz2> Frogzoo: could it be temporary files from my email server? If so, how do I purge all of my mailboxes?
[11:15] <Twinxor> anyone have some experience with GDB? I'm having an odd problem
[11:15] <nomad111> my update manager wants me to update libreetype6 package but it says it is not authenticated. should i go ahead and install it?
[11:15] <gyl> stu : but only vino-server it is on linux?
[11:15] <NV> madmojo:  It wont eject. So just trying to see if its a hardware problem or something I mess
[11:15] <lagrimo> need a fine screenshot program to take screens sven of beryl/compiz etc.
[11:15] <madmojo> what brand is it?
[11:15] <madmojo> and are you running a live cd?
[11:15] <gyl> NV : type eject maybe it helps
[11:15] <NV> dont know right now, I'm at school
[11:15] <stu> ok, then i presume there's a fast connection to and from it.  Nothing like a severely crippled 10mb lan?  presumably not.  So then I would have to ask what desktop env are you running through vino?  kde/gnome?  or just a plain X session (like failsafe)
[11:15] <NV> gyl: I'll try eject... I was just looking if this is something heard of before.
[11:15] <madmojo> only with live cd's and old old cdroms
[11:15] <jason_ukfsn> irc.attenuate.org
[11:15] <Whiz2> does anyone know how to purge my temp email files from my mail server?
[11:15] <gyl> stu; it's 100MB and 1 meter betwhen linux and windows
[11:15] <madmojo> my gigabyte dvdrom gives me a hiccup from time to time
[11:15] <NV> madmojo: no Live-cd but its a quite old computer (Compaq 5500)
[11:16] <gyl> stu: ubuntu7.04/gnome
[11:16] <madmojo> ah its that lame old sony cdrom thats the problem
[11:16] <madmojo> theyre cheap to buy if u just need a reader
[11:16] <NV> madmojo: might just be
[11:17] <lagrimo> need a fine screenshot program to take screens sven of beryl/compiz etc.
[11:17] <NV> madmojo: now that I installed ubuntu-server I hope I never will have to use the cd again ;)
[11:17] <Whiz2> in one month's time, a full free GB of space has seemingly vanished on my Linux system drive.
[11:17] <stu> gyl:  ok, through vnc on your windows box are you seeing exactly whats on your desktop on the linux machine (same as if you plugged in the monitor to the linux box)  I'm just trying to determine whether you are connecting to the currently running X session or a new session created by vino
[11:17] <Whiz2> i need help with this
[11:17] <madmojo> in a perfect world maybe but since you use the server it should be fine for a very long time
[11:18] <neztit1> pkg: error processing mythtv-database (--configure):
[11:18] <neztit1>    any help???
[11:18] <Kevin__> hi there, get problem when i try to connect my linux box from a windows pc
[11:18] <NV> madmojo: I hope so! thanks for youre help!!
[11:18] <stu> Kevin__ (more info req'd) - how you connecting by what method
[11:18] <madmojo> you linked the windows pc to the linux?
[11:19] <gyl> stu : I'm  seeing exactly what is on my desktop ( it's not creating another session ) (sorry my english is bad)
[11:19] <Kevin__> i installed tightvnc on my linux box, and vncviewer on the window pc
[11:19] <stu> gyl: its ok, if its lagging badly then I can only suggest changing the resolution down and or colour depth
[11:20] <Kevin__> when i tried to connect to my linux, nothing but a X left on the screen
[11:20] <neztit1> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23397/   guys any help???
[11:20] <madmojo> ive only used vnc on windows, never tried it on linux
[11:20] <stu> Kevin__: it would be better to use vino-server.
[11:20] <Whiz2> Kevin__: check your free space
[11:20] <gyl> whats better tightvncserver or vino-server?
[11:21] <Kevin__> total space is 250G, only use 2.5G by far
[11:21] <madmojo> im no real fan of vnc, though i used it for my lineage 2 server to keep my admin connected
[11:21] <aldaek> neztit1, did it install mysql server for your mythtv?
[11:21] <madmojo> bed tyme 4 me
[11:21] <stu> kevin__ / gyl :  its personal preference for which to use.  Personally I use vino-server as I find it more comfortable and configurable for my needs.  Plus it provides a multi-user X-desktop to the linux box for if you want to have multiple login's and multiple remote control session's with different users
[11:22] <Whiz2> Kevin__: are you running vnc on startup?
[11:22] <gyl> hmm I'm going to try tightvncserver
[11:22] <Kevin__> ok, stu, i'll follow your advise to install vino
[11:22] <neztit1> aldaek: yes
[11:22] <stu> Kevin__:   vine-server
[11:23] <stu> kevin__:  sorry vino-server
[11:23] <neztit1> aldaek: any idea??
[11:23] <aldaek> neztit1, check /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock on lines 1-5
[11:24] <neztit1> then??
[11:24] <neztit1> give me the command pls
[11:24] <aldaek> based on the error you posted, it should be somewhere starting on those lines
[11:24] <Kevin__> THANKS stu for yoooour kindly help
[11:24] <aldaek> i dont know.. im still trying to work my em28xx in... busy with installing lamp on my desktop install of ubuntu

[11:26] <puff> Evening, I've got a thinkpad t43p;  upgraded to feisty and since then my laptop's been running hot and hibernate-to-disk is broken.  Anybody know about this?
[11:26] <puff> I'm more worried about the heat than the hibernate;  lack of hibernate is annoying, but it's not going to burn up my CPU.
[11:27] <stu> I installed the thinkpad tools from the repo.  I also beleive there's more tools in the universe and multiverse
[11:27] <puff> And they have bugs open on hibernate, are waorking on it.
[11:27] <stu> but Im using a R50e
[11:27] <magnetron> puff: you need to install powernowd to keep your computer cool
[11:28] <puff> magnetron: Hm, it's installed.
[11:28] <magnetron> hmm
[11:29] <puff> magnetron: Does powernowd require me to make any changes, or just install it?  If the former (need to actually issue some commands after installing), would the upgrade have wiped out any changes I made with powernowd?
[11:29] <puff> Would laptop-mode-tools come int o play here?
[11:29] <hyuma> hello

[12:23] <shockwave1> I need help. I was just trying to install virtualbox, and in the installation process it froze up, i couldn't get it to even close and had to restart the computer. now that it has restarted my synaptics and updates don't work. when i click on them it tells me it needs to install the file but can't find the archive. when i try to install it via dl it says the file is corrupt or i don't have access. please help thanks
[12:24] <CheshireViking> Is there a way can I display/print a directory and its sub-directories and files which I can then pipe the output to a file? - Something like treeprint on windows
[12:24] <silvernode> shockwave:I had this problem a few days ago, how di you go about installing virtualbox?
[12:24] <godsyn> Question. I have created a basic lamp server using ubuntu server, with vhosts / etc. How do I ensure new files under the ~/public_html directory are created with the usergroup www-data.
[12:24] <pmo> silver nvidia 6series 256mb ddr3 ram.... amd turion64 x2, 2gb ddr2 ram.. good enough?
[12:24] <shockwave1> silvernode. i tried to dl and install it off the site
[12:25] <roland_> i need to write to hda1 ntfs , in mount | grep hda1 i see at options rw but i cant mkdir on it it says read only fs
[12:25] <roland_> as root
[12:25] <silvernode> pmo:should work just fine search it in synaptic
[12:25] <pmo> i tried it yesterday
[12:25] <pmo> it only did bacis stuff
[12:25] <pmo> nothing fancy
[12:25] <shockwave1> silvernode
[12:25] <silvernode> shockwave: have you read forums anywhere?
[12:25] <ikonia> roland_: ntfs is read only
[12:25] <pmo> restarting X didnt help either
[12:26] <shockwave1> silvernode: my synaptics won't open
[12:26] <roland_> ikonia huh ?
[12:26] <roland_> theres ntfs write support in linux kernel and theres also ntfs-3g
[12:26] <ikonia> roland_: you have to use something along the lines of the ntfs3g package to write to ntfs file systems
[12:26] <ikonia> roland_: the write support in the kernel is disabled unless you force it and it very rarley works
[12:26] <roland_> i always used it sucesfully
[12:26] <silvernode> shockwave: yes i came here asking for help with the same problem and i ultimately had to reinstall linux
[12:26] <roland_> its almost out of experimental
[12:26] <roland_> now it works
[12:26] <Twinxor> so is it normal behavior that when a program uses tons of RAM, everything goes screwy and I have to restart X?
[12:27] <godsyn> I have created a basic lamp server using ubuntu server (feisty), with vhosts / etc. How do I ensure new files under the ~/public_html directory are created with the usergroup www-data.
[12:27] <ikonia> roland_: I disagree, but good luck to you if your confident
[12:27] <silvernode> shockwave:messing with virtualbox is dangerous unless you know what your doing
[12:27] <Twinxor> I wish there was an easier way to recover
[12:27] <shockwave1> silvernode: i really hope not
[12:27] <roland_> so ubuntu cant write to ntfs?
[12:27] <else> roland_, sure it can
[12:27] <shockwave1> aparently. if i can't even get it installed. lol
[12:27] <ikonia> roland_: ubuntu can
[12:27] <else> sudo aptitude install ntfs-3g
[12:27] <roland_> ok
[12:27] <roland_> good
[12:27] <else> sudo mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/xxx /mnt/bla
[12:28] <Reilithion> Why are there two "Web Server" entries in my Services settings?  One for (apache) and the other for (apache2)
[12:28] <silvernode> shockwave:im sure there are ways to get around it and if you find some let me know but at this point your dead in the water
[12:28] <ikonia> godsyn: umask and set uid/gid on the directory
[12:28] <else> Reilithion, perhaps because both are installed?
[12:28] <shockwave1> ill keep asking
[12:28] <Reilithion> else: I could see it happening.  =/
[12:28] <silvernode> pmo: do you have a restricted graphics driver enabled? it wouldn't work with my restricted driver
[12:29] <ikonia> shockwave1: remove your files from /var/achive/dpkg/cache and try again
[12:29] <Reilithion> else: I'm not too experienced in this stuff
[12:29] <Madpilot> Reilithion, sudo aptitude remove apache apache2
[12:29] <pmo> silvernode yes
[12:29] <tecno_> well toshiba a100 063 works good in UBUNTU Xd
[12:29] <pmo> what did you do then silvernode ?
[12:30] <Reilithion> Madpilot: Won't that remove BOTH?  I only want to remove one of them -- and only if it's really a problem to have them both.
[12:30] <silvernode> pmo:unenable your restriced driver and try again worked for me, i don't enable it cuz i like beryl
[12:30] <shockwave1> ikonia thank you i will try that
[12:30] <Hawkins> Madpilot, link you gave could possibly fix it but running sudo aticonfig --resolution=1280x960 gives me following: Error: Section # expected ; aticonfig: parsing the command-line failed.
[12:30] <CapriCorn^80> is ubuntu 7.04 is fiesty fawn ??
[12:30] <shockwave1> can i just navigate to the file or open it though console
[12:30] <Madpilot> Reilithion, sorry, yes, that'll dump both. You probably want to keep apache2, though
[12:30] <pmo> nvm silvernode, i was typing and POOF beryl worked by itself
[12:30] <CheshireViking> CapriCorn^80, Yes
[12:30] <silvernode> shockwave1:hope what he says helps man
[12:31] <silvernode> pmo:beryl is great isn't it?
[12:31] <pmo> real pwn
[12:31] <pmo> feel like the old movie "hackers" at that server room ;)
[12:32] <pmo> real sweet
[12:32] <CapriCorn^80> ok
[12:32] <KooNiBerT> Hello Guys
[12:32] <KooNiBerT> It's me again
[12:32] <CapriCorn^80> can u tell me the best n stable version of ubuntu ???
[12:32] <silvernode> i use beryl but it slows down my computer a little so i use the ubuntu desktop effects
[12:32] <KooNiBerT> I have a question. How can i overwrite files in the folder X11
[12:32] <Madpilot> CapriCorn^80, 7.04 is the latest stable release
[12:32] <kijjaz> I'm on Ubuntu that's run on the first partition of the harddisk now. I've just install debian in second partition, and chose 'continue without a boot loader', here it is:
[12:32] <CapriCorn^80> its beta version
[12:33] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[12:33] <CheshireViking> !feisty | CapriCorn^80
[12:33] <ubotu> CapriCorn^80: Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) is the latest version of Ubuntu. Upgrading to Feisty: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FeistyUpgrades - Downloading: http://www.ubuntu.com/download - For BitTorrent downloads, see !Torrents
[12:33] <Madpilot> CapriCorn^80, no, 7.10 (Gusty Gibbon) is in Beta right now.
[12:33] <kijjaz> When I restart again.. when i'm in ubuntu, the bootsplash comes up, load something (correctly) then switch immediately to the prompt.
[12:33] <silvernode> capricorn^80, although some still claim dapper is the most stable it is definatly not the best
[12:33] <Reilithion> CapriCorn^80: I believe Edgy is considered stable right now.  Feisty Fawn was released recently.
[12:33] <kijjaz> I can't run any programs there.. even apt, apt-get's gone.
[12:33] <Madpilot> Reilithion, released = stable (at least for Ubuntu...)
[12:33] <kijjaz> but when I type "exit" it just get out of there and conitnue loading Ubuntu as usual and works fine.
[12:33] <kijjaz> What was my problem?
[12:34] <CapriCorn^80> so edgy is the good one right now
[12:34] <silvernode> i would use feisty
[12:34] <silvernode> personally
[12:34] <silvernode> it has a little more repositories
[12:34] <devilsadvocate> CapriCorn^80, feisty
[12:34] <silvernode> which is good
[12:34] <CheshireViking> CapriCorn^80, Feisty is the latest release, it replaced Edgy last month
[12:34] <Reilithion> silvernode: I Do use Feisty.  Personally.  ;-)
[12:35] <CapriCorn^80> i m reading a page and it says that Xandros 4 Home Edition Premium is better the fiesty
[12:35] <CapriCorn^80> http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1697,2124102,00.asp
[12:35] <pmo> silvercode: do you know how to change themes?
[12:35] <devilsadvocate> CapriCorn^80, its not a matter of better..its about personal choice
[12:35] <zachinglis> Hey all, I'm following this tutorial: http://wiki.slicehost.com/doku.php?id=slice_setup_from_onrails.org  On make and make install on Apache I get http://pastie.caboo.se/66444 - been googling for last hour. No luck.
[12:35] <Madpilot> CapriCorn^80, anyone can put a page on on the internet claiming anything. Try both, and see.
[12:36] <devilsadvocate> zachinglis, you are compiling apache?
[12:36] <CapriCorn^80> ok
[12:36] <silvernode> reilithion:yeah i like it better than previous versions because it has more repositories and some other various things they changed that i like such as allowing easy access to my restricted driver for my graphics card
[12:36] <zachinglis> devilsadvocate: elaborate
[12:36] <CapriCorn^80> is there difference b/w ubuntu n kubuntu fiesty fawan
[12:36] <somnath> here is a problem
[12:36] <tamerEG1> People! I do have a problem, I don't get the time on ubuntu synchronized properly.
[12:36] <tamerEG1> I really need help!
[12:37] <silvernode> capicorn:yes kubuntu is based on KDE environment
[12:37] <Madpilot> CapriCorn^80, different desktops - Ubuntu uses Gnome, Kubuntu uses KDE
[12:37] <Reilithion> CapriCorn^80: Yes.  One uses the GNOME desktop environment and the other uses KDE.
[12:37] <devilsadvocate> !lamp
[12:37] <ubotu> LAMP is an acronym for Linux-Apache-MySQL-PHP. However, the term is often used for setups using alternative but different software, such as Perl or Python instead of PHP, and Postgres instead of MySQL. For help with setting up LAMP on Ubuntu, see  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP - See also the Server CD installation process (different in Edgy+)
[12:37] <somnath> i can not install exe file
[12:37] <KooNiBerT> I have a question. How can i overwrite files in the folder X11
[12:37] <kijjaz> Now update-grub runs ok but didn't update at the /boot/grub/menu.lst -_-"
[12:37] <CapriCorn^80> ok
[12:37] <devilsadvocate> !lamp | zachinglis
[12:37] <ubotu> zachinglis: please see above
[12:37] <pmo> i found it
[12:37] <pyrogan> wow. this xorg.conf stuff is confusing. anyone feel like helping me get this onboard video working so I can use my second monitor?
[12:38] <tamerEG1> no idea to set the time proparly?
[12:38] <devilsadvocate> look at the link on the ubuntu wiki
[12:38] <CapriCorn^80> i got that shipment cd from ubuntu got ubuntu 7.04 . so i guess its fiesty fawn gnome
[12:38] <Madpilot> somnath, EXE is a Windows format. Linux does not use them natively.
[12:38] <silvernode> caplicorn: you can install KDE with synaptic package manager and enable it when you first see the log in screen
[12:38] <Reilithion> devilsadvocate: Hey, lookit that.  ubotu's pretty smart for a bot
[12:38] <CapriCorn^80> ok
[12:38] <devilsadvocate> quite, Reilithion
[12:38] <zachinglis> devilsadvocate: ?
[12:38] <pyrogan> KooNiBerT: try using sudo?
[12:39] <devilsadvocate> zachinglis, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ApacheMySQLPHP
[12:39] <kijjaz> somnath: hmm.. what kind of EXE do you intend to run?
[12:39] <devilsadvocate> i dont think that needs you to compile stuff, last i checked
[12:39] <Madpilot> Reilithion, there are times when I think ubotu is the most intelligent thing in this channel... :)
[12:39] <Reilithion> lol
[12:39] <KooNiBerT> what do you mean pyrogan. im a linux noob ;)
[12:39] <John___> when install 7.04 cannot change resolution from 640*480 cannot see all of screen to continue install help
[12:39] <somnath> my wireless connection Icon is regular icon i want to change it like wireless icon how to do
[12:40] <zachinglis> devilsadvocate: I just worry. I've already installed another version that failed. I've reformatted my slice 3 times. I've ben working on it for last 17 hours.
[12:40] <silvernode> capicorn:KDE is more windows like than gnome, gnome is more mac looking in certain ways if you ask me but kde lets you customize a little more directly
[12:40] <somnath> visual basic
[12:40] <zachinglis> devilsadvocate: but i'll go for it
[12:40] <devilsadvocate> zachinglis, do you need this for a dedicated server or just for development purposes?
[12:40] <ph8> does anyone know a way to disable network devices on boot, from grub - that's not recovery mode?
[12:40] <zachinglis> devilsadvocate: dedi
[12:40] <zachinglis> else i'd just install xamp or something.
[12:40] <pyrogan> KooN: sudo allows you to run commands as root. so if you need to edit a file that you don have permissions for, you use sudo nano xorg.conf or whatever
[12:41] <somnath> what is solution to run exe file
[12:41] <kijjaz> somnath: Oh.. visual basic.. hmm.. sounds like a large program for installing on Ubuntu Linux system -_-". I'm not sure wine can support that.
[12:41] <KooNiBerT> thank you!
[12:41] <devilsadvocate> zachinglis, dedi = dedicated server... ?
[12:41] <calx> can someone tell me the command run the x configuration program..
[12:41] <kijjaz> somnath: I guess you can read more about Wine.
[12:41] <silvernode> Im out everyone be back later on today to help out thanks
[12:41] <zachinglis> devilsadvocate: Aye.
[12:41] <Madpilot> ubotu, wine | somnath
[12:41] <ubotu> somnath: wine is a compatibility layer for running Windows programs on GNU/Linux. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Wine for more information.
[12:41] <noob> I'm a pro, I've been using ubuntu for 2 days now :)
[12:41] <digitalspaghetti> hey folks - i need Nero for linux, but i've been trying to download from the Nero site yesterday and today and it's not working.  Does anyone know where I can get the .deb file?
[12:41] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[12:42] <gordonjcp> digitalspaghetti: there's probably not a .deb file
[12:42] <pyrogan> calx: try sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[12:42] <doseryder> I read the ntfs-3g manpage to learn how to set permissions on the mounted hd and was successful.  I want to further configure the permissions even further to my desired settings.  I found that if I set the bitmask related options for the hd in question the permissions remains the same for every subdirectories under the mount point.  Is there a way where I can truly chmod different directories different under t
[12:42] <doseryder> he mount point?  Thx for reading this lengthy description.
[12:42] <CapriCorn^80> we can install knetworkmanager on gnome ?
[12:42] <devilsadvocate> zachinglis, personally, i suggest you check the repos before you try to compile.. saves a lot of time for me atleast...
[12:42] <calx> thanks pyrogan
[12:42] <digitalspaghetti> gordonjcp: http://ftp2.lon.nero.com/PUB/e0abc579f7d1e3e1b9f4deb1212ae320/nerolinux-3.0.0.0-x86.deb
[12:42] <silvernode> digital:most likely not a .deb file
[12:42] <magnetron> digitalspaghetti: from nero?
[12:42] <noob> how is the kernel compiled, is everything modules and the proper modules get loaded when I boot? How does the kernel work in ubuntu?
[12:42] <gordonjcp> digitalspaghetti: hm, I'm surprised
[12:42] <zachinglis> devilsadvocate: why wuld i check the repository?
[12:42] <gordonjcp> digitalspaghetti: why do you need Nero, specifically?
[12:42] <pyrogan> calx: no prob. im trying to get this xorg working myself
[12:42] <digitalspaghetti> because I need to burn an .nrg file
[12:43] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[12:43] <kijjaz> digitalspaghetti: I've just seen on the net Nero's released nero for linux.
[12:43] <zachinglis> ok, i realise I am wrong devilsadvocate  I am trying to install zlib at this point
[12:43] <digitalspaghetti> our album was mastered in LA, and i downloaded it from FTP here in the UK, need to burn it
[12:43] <gordonjcp> aha
[12:43] <devilsadvocate> zachinglis, ok....
[12:43] <CapriCorn^80> we can install knetworkmanager on gnome ?
[12:43] <pyrogan> anyone here use both onboard video and a second card with one monitor on each?
[12:43] <digitalspaghetti> i suppose i could see if the rpm is working and alien it
[12:43] <kijjaz> digitalspaghetti: But don't know if it has a demo capable of burning .nrg.. let's check out.
[12:44] <digitalspaghetti> kijjaz it is, i have it on my home laptop
[12:44] <Hawkins> What to do when 'aticonfig --resolution=1280x960' gives me this Error: Section # expected
[12:44] <noob> !fglrx
[12:44] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[12:44] <bugmenot> hello. all my videos are cut-out like this: http://img174.imageshack.us/my.php?image=zrzutekranu1zd6.png . why?
[12:44] <digitalspaghetti> dammit, the RPM isn't there either, something wrong with nero's FTP site
[12:45] <CheshireViking> digitalspaghetti, have you tried http://gregory.kokanosky.free.fr/v4/linux/nrg2iso.en.html
[12:45] <muszek> hi... I need to burn ubuntu iso under windows... anyone knows a decent foss software that does that?
[12:45] <viller> how do you run xen (command please)?
[12:45] <digitalspaghetti> CheshireViking nope :)  i'll have a look
[12:45] <zachinglis> devilsadvocate: nope, zlib did do fine, it WAS apache
[12:45] <silvernode> digital:most likely yes thats what it seems like
[12:45] <CheshireViking> digitalspaghetti, or have a look at this, http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=224353 it mentions a command line way to convert an .nrg gile to an iso using "dd"
[12:45] <digitalspaghetti> can't be worse than loading the TOAST file the origionally send, which I ended up having to open in Audacity to get the raw sound files
[12:46] <doseryder> I read the ntfs-3g manpage to learn how to set permissions on the mounted hd and was successful.  I want to further configure the permissions even further to my desired settings.  I found that if I set the bitmask related options for the hd in question the permissions remains the same for every subdirectories under the mount point.  Is there a way where I can truly chmod different directories different under t
[12:46] <doseryder> he mount point?  Thx for reading this lengthy description.
[12:46] <ph8> anyone know a way to detect my network cards from the command line?
[12:46] <pyrogan> ph8: lspci
[12:46] <CheshireViking> didgi
[12:46] <ph8> ah ok maybe i'll rephrase
[12:46] <ph8> i want to be able to use them afterwards
[12:46] <silvernode> digital:im sure there are programs very much so more able and better than nero to do what you need
[12:46] <ph8> i.e. ifup eth0
[12:46] <CheshireViking> digitalspaghetti, dd bs=1k if=image.nrg of=image.iso skip=300
[12:47] <zachinglis> devilsadvocate: checking for APR-util... reconfig  configure: error: Cannot use an external APR with the bundled APR-util
[12:47] <pyrogan> ph8: in that case, I got no clue :(
[12:47] <ph8> oh well
[12:47] <silvernode> later all
[12:47] <yeniklasor> Do you know any application for Tv Tuner (capture) Cards?
[12:47] <viller> how do you run xen (command please)?

[12:49] <ubotu> Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[12:50] <verb3k_> ph8, does it log system messages ?
[12:50] <ph8> i don't see you doing any helping
[12:50] <ph8> verb3k_: just the commands you've run i believe
[12:50] <bugmenot> all my videos are cut-out like this: http://img174.imageshack.us/my.php?image=zrzutekranu1zd6.png . why?
[12:50] <natecull> does this mean there's a repository error or do I need to fix my apt-get somehow?
[12:50] <verb3k_> ph8, is there a file for the messages ?
[12:50] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[12:51] <viller> how do you run xen (command please)?
[12:52] <noob> ah
[12:52] <PurpZeY> bugmenot: You running beryl?
[12:52] <noob> it's so much easier to get the fglrx to work now
[12:52] <ph8> verb3k_: i'm not sure what you mean by messages, you mean the output of run commands?

[12:53] <PurpZeY> bugmenot: I was having a little bit of a different problem but also a playback issue, I switched over to vlc and then changed the video output to use x11, fixed everything.
[12:55] <jona_> I just installed feisty
[12:55] <alexnick> Hi everyone. I need help configuring my dial up modem.
[12:55] <PurpZeY> jona_: welcome.
[12:55] <jona_> if I start my laptop i get the error
[12:55] <jona_> hard disk sector invalid or no active partition
[12:56] <jona_> hi purpzey
[12:56] <verb3k_> ph8,  it's very important to know what happened to your system when you are away from it ...especially if you found your systemshutdown by itself ....just like the blackbox of a plane :)
[12:56] <bugmenot> i discovered something more- when i resize the windows- the movie is being played only in the solid dimension (when i make windows smaller- everything ok, but when i make i bigger- then a video is played only in the still part of screen)
[12:56] <PurpZeY> alexnick: I can try to help you, I might not be able to...is it internal?
[12:56] <ikonia> jona_: is that the exact error message
[12:56] <ikonia> jona_: does it say that before it loads grub or before it loads ubuntu
[12:56] <jona_> yes it is
[12:56] <jona_> before it loads grub
[12:56] <PurpZeY> bugmenot: I was having the exact same problem, switch to vlc and change the video options to play using x11
[12:56] <ikonia> ok so it looks like the install has messed up and not actually installed grub
[12:57] <alexnick> Yes purpzey, it is an internal modem. According to scanmodem it is a Conexant modem.
[12:57] <jona_> if i start with my live cd and i pick: start from first hard disk everything works fine
[12:57] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[12:57] <PurpZeY> alexnick: So, lspci is picking it up?
[12:57] <ikonia> jona_: yes, grub has not been installed then by the looks of it, or you've not marked a partition as "active" in the partition table
[12:57] <ph8> verb3k_: you might want to check dmesg?
[12:57] <ph8> /var/log/messages
[12:57] <ph8> etc
[12:57] <alexnick> What is lspci?
[12:58] <verb3k_> ph8,  thanks ...I will do
[12:58] <alexnick> Sorry, I'm a little new to the terminology.
[12:58] <ph8> lspci lists all the pci componenets attached to your computer

I got rid of that by adding "noapic nolapic" to the boot params, however, it's just hanging the same minus the error now. Any ideas?
[12:58] <alexnick> Oh. Let me go check it.
[12:58] <PurpZeY> alexnick: run 'lspci | grep conex'
[12:58] <Stonekeepe1> any ideas?
[12:58] <jona_> can I still mark it active
[12:58] <bsd> n
[12:58] <ikonia> lspci isn't going to show an external modem
[12:59] <PurpZeY> ikonia: he said it's internal
[12:59] <ikonia> sorry, I thought he said external
[12:59] <kijjaz> How can I recreate a swap partition for an existing Ubuntu easily and safely?
[12:59] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[12:59] <ikonia> kijjaz: why / how did you delete it
[12:59] <bugmenot> PurpZeY: thanks. the quality isn`t good, but works
[12:59] <devilsadvocate> kijjaz, what happened to the old one?
[01:00] <alexnick> I typed it in and terminal didn't do anything.
[01:00] <PurpZeY> bugmenot: No problem...sorry about the quality issue, haven't had that one.
[01:00] <Reilithion> How would I construct a diff command so that it would ignore any differences resulting from lines beginning with the character #?
[01:00] <kijjaz> ikonia: I was having 2 distro (ubuntu and 64 studio) 64 studio installed on 2nd partition, and ubuntu installed on 1st after i installed 64studio

[01:00] <babo> guys, my plugin mic isn't working. I've messed around with the alsa mixer for a while but it doesn't seem to be making any difference. The internal mic on the system works fine ... :-( ... can anyone help ?
[01:00] <kijjaz> ikonia: and i can see there are 2 swap partitions in the harddisk at the end of it.
[01:00] <PurpZeY> alexnick: Ok, perhaps my string was no good...just run 'lspci more' and see if you can see the modem in the hardware list.
[01:00] <Reilithion> I tried diff -I ^# file1 file2 but it didn't work
[01:00] <ikonia> kijjaz: great, so you've not got a problem
[01:00] <noob> join #gnome
[01:01] <ikonia> kijjaz: you have to swap partitions

[01:01] <alexnick> I got:  Modem: Intel Corporation 82801CA/CAM AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 02)
[01:01] <doseryder> I read the ntfs-3g manpage to learn how to set permissions on the mounted hd and was successful.  I want to further configure the permissions even further to my desired settings.  I found that if I set the bitmask related options for the hd in question the permissions remains the same for every subdirectories under the mount point.  Is there a way where I can truly chmod different directories different under t
[01:01] <doseryder> he mount point?  Thx for reading this lengthy description.
[01:01] <kijjaz> ikonia: I deleted the 64studio partition, one swap partition, and install debian (with no bootloader)
[01:02] <ikonia> ok
[01:02] <ikonia> nd ?
[01:02] <ikonia> and
[01:02] <kijjaz> ikonia: but when i restart, ubuntu loads ok (at the bootsplash) but then it switch to Terminal.
[01:02] <ikonia> and ?
[01:02] <ikonia> why do you think thats swap partition issue ?
[01:02] <alexnick> It read: Modem: Intel Corporation 82801CA/CAM AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 02)
[01:02] <PurpZeY> alexnick: Hate to ask a dumb question, but how do you know the modem isn't working?
[01:02] <kijjaz> ikonia: and says there's a problem with filesystem, and suggest i should manually correct it.
[01:02] <alexnick> I know it is working because I use it in Win XP all the time.
[01:02] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[01:02] <ikonia> ok - so it needs fsckin'g
[01:02] <kennell> exit
[01:03] <ikonia> what makes you think its swap
[01:03] <alexnick> Ohh wait. How do you mean?
[01:03] <kijjaz> ikonia: but after i type exit, it went on perfectly normal and boot gdm well.
[01:03] <ikonia> kijjaz: I'll say it again - what makes you think there is a problem with the swap partition
[01:03] <kijjaz> ikonia: I thought the swap i deleted was this distro's swap hahah, i'm quite a noob ya know.
[01:03] <kijjaz> ikonia: Because there was 2 swaps.
[01:04] <kijjaz> ikonia: and I deleted one that's all.
[01:04] <ikonia> kijjaz: I suggest you just re-install to get a clean base as its clear you a.) can't read the error messages properly b.) don't really understand whats going on
[01:04] <kijjaz> ikonia: So what's the main problem? The file system? hmm.. how should I correcnt this?
[01:04] <PurpZeY> alexnick: What i mean is, how do you know it isn't working in ubuntu?
[01:05] <kijjaz> ikonia: Hmm a clean base'd do. Okay, thanks mate.
[01:05] <pyrogan> ok, this is annoying. can anyone help me with an xorg issue? i followed a howto on the ubuntuforums, to get xinerama going.. now I have my main screen up but nothing on the other one. gah!
[01:05] <jona_> ikonia: problem solved, I forgot my boot flag, thanks
[01:05] <ikonia> jona_: no problem
[01:05] <techbee> !ask
[01:06] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[01:06] <alexnick> I'm not sure really. I use something just like AOL so what steps could I take to test it?
[01:06] <cenzo> Has anyone encountered /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off when installing 7.04 Ubuntu? Thanx
[01:06] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[01:06] <shockwave1> ikonia: there is nothing in the /var/archive/dpgk/cache file. any other ideas how I can get synaptics working?
[01:06] <NV> I'm lacking httpd.conf in my /etc/apache2...
[01:06] <NV> reinstalled two times.
[01:06] <ikonia> shockwave1: check out the dpkg log for a better understanding of whats going on
[01:07] <jrib> NV: you probably want apache2.conf.  But httpd.conf should be there anyway.  What package did you reinstall?
[01:07] <shockwave1> ikonia: which option should I be looking at?
[01:07] <ikonia> nv its called apache2.conf
[01:07] <ikonia> shockwave1: option ??? its a log file
[01:07] <pyrogan> ok, my question is: if my xorg.conf is telling X there are two screens, why is one of them not getting a signal? it the one using onboard video whish isnt working
[01:08] <Edzhjus> need help..where can i set up proxy with autentification so that i can use Add/Remove system?
[01:08] <PurpZeY> What is the command to make the modem loopback and test itself?
[01:08] <ikonia> pyrogan: most systems can't use onboard AND external cards at the same time
[01:08] <ikonia> PurpZeY: you could try cu or tip
[01:08] <NV> The errormsg is: apache2: Syntax error on line 189 of /etc/apache2/apache2.conf: Could not open configuration file /etc/apache2/httpd.conf: No such file or directory
[01:08] <pyrogan> ikonia: you mean most *nix systems?
[01:09] <NV> I have the apache2.conf
[01:09] <Binja> I'm having a problem with Edgy Eft - after a while new programs stop opening but ones that are already open function normally...anyone have any ideas? Like a log I can check?
[01:09] <ikonia> nv thennv then you have messed up your conifg
[01:09] <ziroday> how good is enlightment?
[01:09] <PurpZeY> ikonia: Is there an operator I am missing, I am just getting command not found from that?
[01:09] <ikonia> pyrogan: no - I mean most home based hardware
[01:09] <NV> ikonia: best solution is to remove and reinstall?
[01:09] <ikonia> PurpZeY: yeah you need to pass some options
[01:10] <ikonia> nv find out why / where you've messed with it
[01:10] <spikeb> ziroday: E16 is ok
[01:10] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[01:10] <devilsadvocate> ziroday, enlightenment is fun but slightly unstable
[01:10] <NV> ikonia: problem is that its a clean apt-get installation
[01:10] <ziroday> thanks
[01:10] <ikonia> nv what version of ubuntu
[01:10] <saso> help
[01:10] <Edzhjus> again: need help..where can i set up proxy with autentification so that i can use Add/Remove system? I have 6.06
[01:11] <NV> 7.04
[01:11] <saso> s
[01:11] <saso> d
[01:11] <pyrogan> ikonia: worked fine in xp, and it sounds like xinerama should do the trick..
[01:11] <ikonia> Edzhjus: in "proxy setup" on the system menu
[01:11] <saso> saso
[01:11] <saso> bite
[01:11] <Edzhjus> ikonia i alreadu done that but still nothing
[01:11] <ikonia> pyrogan: xinerama will work if both cards are supported online at the same time
[01:11] <ikonia> Edzhjus: then you have not done it right
[01:11] <Reilithion> in apache2, is the userdir module disabled by default or something?  I'm not able to pull up a user page.
[01:11] <Edzhjus> in add/remove it displays that proxy authentification is needed
[01:11] <spikeb> hrm
[01:12] <desmond123> can some1 help me with my sound problem? i don't have sound when i paly a game or a song and there also is no card founded if i use the program for mixer settings
[01:12] <shockwave1> ikonia: I just type dpkg log right, but then it is giving me other options i think. Such as Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages [*] ; Am I doing it right?
[01:12] <nj786> hey can anybody help me find out why my printer is not printing?
[01:12] <PurpZeY> alexnick: Just go to System --> Adminstration --> Network and see what it says under modem
[01:12] <ikonia> Edzhjus: you've not even looked. Synaptic - preferences - network - proxy settings
[01:12] <Edzhjus> i looked
[01:12] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[01:12] <Edzhjus> and i filled it in
[01:12] <ikonia> shockwave1: you;ve not opened the log
[01:13] <ikonia> Edzhjus: so the proxy you need has authentication requirments
[01:13] <fuzzy_logic> hi people.. can anyone help me plz? my wireless internet doesn't work after updating the kernel.. anyone have ideas why?
[01:13] <Edzhjus> but stiil authentification is needed
[01:13] <Edzhjus> yes!
[01:13] <Edzhjus> i already said that
[01:13] <ikonia> Edzhjus: so authenticate
[01:13] <PurpZeY> fuzzy_logic: Just run the old kernel from grub...easiest fix.
[01:13] <Edzhjus> how?
[01:13] <ikonia> fuzzy_logic: where did you get the new kernel
[01:13] <pyrogan> ikonia: if both the onboard and PCI cards have a BusID, and everything in my xorg.conf appears to be kosher, what else should I check?
[01:13] <ikonia> Edzhjus: type in your username and password
[01:13] <pyrogan> like.. the cables are all ok
[01:13] <Edzhjus> where?
[01:14] <fuzzy_logic> ikonia: just from the normal updating system
[01:14] <shockwave1> ikonia: yeah i figured i must be doing something wrong. I do not know how to open the log:-(
[01:14] <ikonia> your xineerama onfig
[01:14] <fuzzy_logic> PurpZeY: i would like to run the newest
[01:14] <ikonia> shockwave1: you open it with a text editor
[01:14] <nj786> um....anybody?
[01:14] <alexnick> Purpzey: I went ahead and followed the instruction of a guide online and punched in a dial up number, etc, so it is configured.
[01:15] <nj786> ok well does anybody know how to fix sound on unbuntu because mine isnt working
[01:15] <PurpZeY> fuzzy_logic: I can't really help you repair the wireless issue...I think a lot of them are related to non-native Ubuntu drivers, but there are a whole host of problems related to that...see the forums and launchpad.
[01:15] <PurpZeY> alexnick: It should be, yes.
[01:15] <shockwave1> ikonia: thanks. i understand that, but where can i find the file for the log?
[01:15] <ikonia> shockwave1: /var/log
[01:15] <desmond123> can some1 help me with my sound problem? i don't have sound when i paly a game or a song and there also is no card founded if i use the program for mixer settings
[01:15] <fuzzy_logic> PurpZeY; i know, i have seen it.. but that it's an ugly problem doesn't mean it's not fixable.. right?
[01:15] <alexnick> So at this point I can just plug in a phone line and connect or what? Wouldn't I need the software to dial in?
[01:16] <shockwave1> ikonia. thank you
[01:16] <MediaAtTech> hi miguel
[01:16] <nj786> guys, seriously do you guys know how to fix printers/sound
[01:16] <PurpZeY> fuzzy_logic: I imagine it is probably fixable...I just don't know how...Mostly, from what I read, and see in the chan, people are just running the old kernel...Perhaps someone would disagree...
[01:16] <PurpZeY> nj786: what printer?
[01:16] <andrewc> nj786: without more specific information, we can't help much. Have a read of http://www.sabi.co.uk/Notes/linuxHelpAsk.html

[01:33] <Reilithion> andrewc:  Yes, Apache2.  Thanks.  I just got a similar response from #apache.
[01:33] <lozzy> what does ubuntu offer more experienced users that distros such as Slack, Debian and Gentoo don't? Or is Ubuntu aimed soley at the new user market? Not intending to start any flames, I've just heard a lot of hype about the distro lately.
[01:33] <Tinned_Tuna> but when ever I try to launch an X program, it says that  it cannot open my display localhost:10:0 ?
[01:33] <Tinned_Tuna> *localhost:10.0
[01:33] <Tinned_Tuna> any ideas where I go to set this?
[01:33] <codecaine> anybody know a program I can download so I can get my joystick to work underlinux?
[01:34] <Andy80> jrib: do you think is it possible to fix?
[01:35] <jrib> Andy80: sure, somehow... try deleting ~/.{X,ICE}authority
[01:35] <jrib> Andy80: and ~/.gnome2/session  as well maybe

[01:45] <Tinned_Tuna> anyone got any ideas on how to make SSH do X forwarding?
[01:45] <Myrtti> Tinned_Tuna: connect to it with -Y ?
[01:46] <wa1pjg> can you dual boot ubuntu 7.04 with windows 2000?
[01:46] <Myrtti> in ubuntu imo x forwarding is enabled by default
[01:46] <Myrtti> wa1pjg: yes.
[01:46] <Myrtti> wa1pjg: install windows first
[01:46] <wa1pjg> how?
[01:46] <Tinned_Tuna> ahh
[01:46] <Tinned_Tuna> got it now
[01:46] <Tinned_Tuna> had to turn Xforwarding on in ssh_config on the local box
[01:46] <Tinned_Tuna> thanks :p
[01:46] <wa1pjg> after you install windows what else needs to be done?
[01:47] <wa1pjg> im new to ubuntu
[01:47] <wa1pjg> do you se the 2k partition manager?
[01:47] <mosi|work> ive installed webmin and virtual min on ubuntu for my webserver. Got a problem in that when creating a virutalhost webmin makes a new home dir and a public_html folder
[01:47] <Myrtti> install ubuntu, when grub is installed, it detects windows and adds it as an option to boot menu
[01:47] <mosi|work> but the public_html folder is locked so only that user can view it
[01:48] <usr_rob> i can't access my cdrom with the burner application, how do i do to get the rights?
[01:48] <mosi|work> anyway i can set my main ubuntu user so i can view whats in that folder ?
[01:48] <wa1pjg> install ubuntu after installing 2K?
[01:48] <Myrtti> wa1pjg: yes.
[01:48] <usr_rob> root gives the burner access thou
[01:48] <mosi|work> only way i can access it atm is to ftp in using the username/pass generated by webmin when creating it
[01:48] <wa1pjg> how ?
[01:48] <wwl910> 
[01:48] <wwl910> 
[01:48] <wwl910> where are you
[01:48] <wa1pjg> do you need to do anything to the hdd before installing ubuntu?
[01:49] <mosi|work> when you install 2k dont use the full disk, partition it and leave some unpartitioned space for ubuntu

[01:51] <lozzy> Is it possible to use a vanilla kernel with Ubuntu, or will it break stuff?
[01:52] <ph8> what does vga=771 actually do? it fixes a lot of my problems
[01:53] <usr_rob> chgrp robert /dev/sg0 did it
[01:53] <andrewc> lozzy: should be ok. Propagate your Ubuntu kernel config from /boot, and consider using kernel-package to do the build
[01:53] <Andy80> lozzy: yes it is possible. Off course you have to know what to include or not....
[01:54] <rod> people I have a problem with my udev in the kernel 2.6.20, when boot the machine not work the network manager and any udev
[01:54] <rodlinux> any idea?

[01:55] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rsync - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:55] <Slart> ph8: in grub?
[01:55] <sebbar> hi, I installed some c libraries but I'm not sure where they got installed... what do I do?
[01:55] <ph8> yeh
[01:55] <SlimeyPete> sebbar: did you install them via an ubuntu package?
[01:55] <Slart> ph8: it sets the videomode during boot
[01:55] <SlimeyPete> sebbar: eg via synaptic
[01:55] <ph8> so 771 sets it to <shit graphics> ?
[01:55] <wols_> sebbar: dpkg -L <packagename>
[01:56] <Slart> ph8: I don't know what mode 771 is... there are tables out there on the intarweb
[01:56] <ph8> thx
[01:56] <sebbar> tnx wols_
[01:56] <danub> hello all. how do i "reload" a profile and environment variables once i make changes to them?
[01:57] <HoocH_LAP> ANyone here know why my x-chat will not startup, I click the icon, the window opens then just closes right away ?
[01:57] <leonel> danub:  login again
[01:57] <danub> and is it possible to add a directory and all sub directories using wildcards?
[01:57] <Slart> ph8: from one site.. 771	800x600, 8-bit color
[01:57] <danub> leonel: no there is a different way of doing it without logging out
[01:57] <danub> HoocH_LAP: check your syslog
[01:57] <danub> it might tell u why
[01:57] <eccentricity> hey. I just installed this operating system yesterday, and decided to compile couple updates. The first one, when I ran configure, complained my C compiler couldn't create executable.
[01:57] <leonel> danub:  when you find out please let me know
[01:57] <danub> will do
[01:58] <leonel> danub: I always  logout/login ..
[01:58] <Slart> ph8: sounds reasonable enough... your computer should be able to handle it.. but if it works without it there's no harm in removing it
[01:58] <eccentricity> Everything seems normal to me, so does anyone have any ideas?
[01:58] <andrewc> HoocH_LAP: try launching it from a Terminal window by typing "xchat" init (without the quotes) and pressing return.
[01:58] <andrewc> *in it
[01:58] <HoocH_LAP> k will try that
[01:58] <Slart> eccentricity: there are... build-essentials.. those include the usual compiler stuff

So how do i install this package? Please note that i 
[02:00] <Slart> CapriCorn^80: you have to setup the xorg.conf first.. ie set up video modes and such for x.. you can do this using dpkg-reconfigure xorg.conf or something similar

[02:03] <kenthomson> Slart: i can understand that thank you
[02:03] <ziroday> kenthomson: what wrong?
[02:04] <kenthomson> ziroday: Looks like i have run into a circular dependency problem. I went to the medibuntu repos and downloaded the packages "amarok" "amarok-xine" "amarok-engines". Now if it try to install amarok it tells me it needs amarok-cine to be configured, if i try to install amarok-xine it tells me it needs amarok to be configured, and if i try to install amarok-engines it tells me it needs amarok-xine to be configured. So how do i install this package? Please not
[02:04] <Slart> kenthomson: I installed amarok from the regular repos and it worked out of the box... I've never seen those kind of problems you ran into..not for amarok, not for any other software on ubuntu

[02:04] <kenthomson> Slart: i too never ran into such problems
[02:04] <HoocH_LAP> wierd
[02:04] <ziroday> kenthomson: why dont you try another repo like the default ubuntu one
[02:04] <kenthomson> Slart: but i heard that due to some patent/copyright restrictions that amarok in ubuntu's repo is stripped down of some functionality
[02:05] <kenthomson> ziroday: see above

[02:05] <HoocH_LAP> I
[02:05] <ziroday> kenthomson: hmm not really but i can give you the kubuntu repo which i know isnt
[02:05] <HoocH_LAP> I'll give it one more try brb :P
[02:05] <kenthomson> aleubuntu: why don't restart the gdm? "sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart"
[02:05] <novato_br> i've everything of what you need to help me
[02:06] <kenthomson> ziroday: that too would be stripped down
[02:06] <novato_br> plz
[02:06] <moonwatcher> i have an lpr question....
[02:06] <ziroday> kenthomson: how exactly are they stripped down??
[02:06] <kenthomson> Slart: ziroday: I would like to think of some propriety codecs like Real-media, quick-time, DeCss not inbuilt into amarok
[02:06] <moonwatcher> hellow everyone
[02:06] <b0wlman> yo moon
[02:06] <Timmain> hm
[02:06] <kenthomson> hmm
[02:06] <Slart> kenthomson: ah.. that might be correct.. I would think that real-media isn't something I would lose sleep over =)
[02:06] <HoocH_LAP> It is so weird
[02:07] <kenthomson> Alright thanks
[02:07] <ziroday> kenthomson: il try find you another repo

[02:07] <moonwatcher> is there a way to set up a printer that will send print jobs from my laptop to a printer that is on a remote network through ssh?
[02:07] <aleubuntu> kenthomson -> when i open the gnome - window-manager it says no preferences found. do you think it reset the parametres whit the restart?
[02:07] <Tom47> HoocH_LAP: have you tried logging out and logging in again?
[02:07] <HoocH_LAP> Tom47: yes I have
[02:08] <moonwatcher> i want to be ableto print from an application and have the hardcopy come out from the printer that is on a network i ssh into
[02:08] <Tom47> ok
[02:08] <Slart> aleubuntu: I don't think restarting gnome will reset any settings..
[02:08] <danub> leonel: export environment;export path
[02:08] <moonwatcher> i am not even sure i am thinking about this the correct way
[02:08] <danub> ] does anyone know if u can use wildcards in a path?
[02:08] <moonwatcher> while in the remote network i use lpr
[02:08] <danub> EX - /scripts/*:/etc/:/etc/:
[02:09] <HoocH_LAP> maybe I should just make a new account for myself and delete the old one :P
[02:09] <danub> u get that leonel?
[02:09] <aleubuntu> slart: this is my opinion... but i really doon't knoe how can reset the configuration (the preferences) of this file....it's impossible to use the computer without the window settings
[02:09] <HoocH_LAP> brb again :P
[02:09] <andrewc> moonwatcher: if the remote printer uses IPP, you could establish an ssh tunnel and set up a printer pointing at localhost.
[02:09] <Flash13> Hey guys, I need to strip some bulk out of ubuntu. I've updated from breezy ->->-> fiesty and I've only got 362MB left. I suspect the packages used during the middle updatets, anyone know if and where I can get rid of them?
[02:10] <Flying-Penguin> is there a way to install ubuntu without a cd drive?
[02:10] <moonwatcher> andrewc: i am not sure what th eremote printer uses, i use something like lpr -Pn316bw
[02:10] <moonwatcher> and then the file name
[02:10] <Frogzoo> Flash13:  sudo apt-get clean

[02:12] <Flash13> haha clean freed 2.5GB, thanks again Frogzoo!
[02:12] <leonel> danub:  but when I modify /etc/profile or bash_rc   I need to  logout
[02:13] <andrewc> moonwatcher: if the remote printer is managed by CUPS, then your remote printer is on <remotebox>:631 and you could forward that port to localhost:6631 (say)
[02:13] <danub> well i just modded the /etc/environment file and did an export environment
[02:13] <andrewc> Otherwise, if it's a network printer, it might be listening on port 631 already.
[02:13] <danub> export profile; works also leonel
[02:13] <moonwatcher> andrewc, all printers here are network printer
[02:14] <andrewc> (port 631 == IPP, and sometimes an HTTP interface as well)
[02:14] <moonwatcher> its a big academic network, i log into a guest network which is wireless so all my communication with the network is through the ssh tunnel
[02:14] <whaq> ziroday: opens?
[02:14] <moonwatcher> i have a desktop which is in the internal, secured network that i use as a gateway
[02:15] <moonwatcher> so i can forward that port to on the ssh tunnel to that computer?

[02:22] <andrewc> Network Printer, URI=ipp://localhost:6631 should do the trick. Then choose make and model, and fill in the other details. Good luck.

[02:26] <krisbo9000> ok
[02:26] <moonwatcher> andrewc, but i need to somehow specify which printer... there are hundreds... when using lpr its called n316bw, so would URI=ipp://localhost:6631/n316bw work?

[02:44] <aldin> IdleOne: so i took my shot here too

[02:45] <ikonia> shockwave1: when you open synptic you get that error ?
[02:45] <krisbo9000> i used to plug it when it was windows ... which board do you mean?
[02:45] <IdleOne> aldin, try looking at packages.xubuntu.com ( not sure if that site exists )
[02:45] <shockwave1> ikonia: yes

[02:47] <CapriCorn^80> man i m working on this ubuntu thing from 6 hours
[02:47] <ikonia> krisbo9000: read the url ubotu is giving you rather than asking random keywords
[02:47] <IdleOne> CapriCorn^80, ask in #kubuntu
[02:47] <CapriCorn^80> i told u i bring my system to university just to get all updates
[02:47] <CapriCorn^80> as ubuntu dont give any update on cd
[02:48] <shockwave1> ikonia: that's bad news. i can't believe that the whole synaptics system can die because of one failed install.
[02:48] <CapriCorn^80> i did
[02:48] <CapriCorn^80> but useless
[02:48] <CapriCorn^80> they were saying that ur system is uptodate
[02:48] <sobersabre> ikonia: I think it is personal preference in case both work, and  thus are comparable.
[02:48] <ikonia> CapriCorn^80: your not making sense, you brought the system to uni for updates - but it doesn't give you updates on your cd
[02:48] <krisbo9000> should i install easyubuntu?
[02:48] <CapriCorn^80> but its not
[02:48] <ikonia> krisbo9000: no
[02:48] <sobersabre> ikonia: bmpx doesn't work on my machine.
[02:48] <sobersabre> :)
[02:48] <sobersabre> and audacious does work.
[02:48] <krisbo9000> ikonia: why?
[02:48] <CapriCorn^80> i mean ubuntu has only one cd
[02:48] <shockwave1> is there a way to install without losing my data?
[02:48] <ikonia> shockwave1: your right - but your not at a level to be able to debug and resolve a problem, so it may be easier
[02:49] <ikonia> krisbo9000: its not an official ubuntu product
[02:49] <CapriCorn^80> thats y i bring it to uni for updates
[02:49] <IdleOne> CapriCorn^80, open konsole and type sudo aptitude dist-upgrade
[02:49] <sobersabre> ok anyway thanks.
[02:49] <shockwave1> ikonia; yeah that is probably true
[02:49] <sobersabre> cheers.
[02:49] <CapriCorn^80> i wish ubuntu got on packages on cd

[02:49] <krisbo9000> yeah but what is?
[02:49] <krisbo9000> hehe
[02:49] <ikonia> krisbo9000: read up on it
[02:49] <ikonia> krisbo9000: all the ubuntu/kubuntu/xubuntu products listed on ubuntu.com are official

[02:50] <shockwave1> ikonia: no i understand what you are saying. I was sincere when I said thank you for your help. I appreciate it
[02:50] <ikonia> Ranpha1: personal preferences, try them both
[02:50] <CheshireViking> spikeb, what are you looking for when you query the bot with aptoncd?

[02:50] <ikonia> shockwave1: ooh I know, just didn't want you to think I'm palming you off
[02:50] <ikonia> CapriCorn^80: your at the latest versions then
[02:50] <IdleOne> CapriCorn^80, that means your system is up to date
[02:50] <spikeb> CheshireViking: a solution to CapriCorn^80's wanting packages on cd
[02:50] <IdleOne> CapriCorn^80, now type sudo sptitude install firefox
[02:50] <CapriCorn^80> but i need ndiswrapper
[02:51] <IdleOne> CapriCorn^80, now type sudo aptitude install firefox
[02:51] <CapriCorn^80> i want ndiswrapper
[02:51] <ikonia> !ndiswrapper >capricorn^80
[02:51] <krisbo9000> dang this ubuntu aint really end user
[02:51] <CheshireViking> spikeb, rite ok, thought it was something for you
[02:51] <IdleOne> !info ndiswrapper
[02:51] <ubotu> Package ndiswrapper does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:51] <krisbo9000> its rough going yo!
[02:51] <ikonia> krisbo9000: I think you'll find your the problem in this case
[02:51] <IdleOne> !info ndiswrapper edgy
[02:51] <ubotu> Package ndiswrapper does not exist in edgy
[02:52] <krisbo9000> i'm just kidding wid ya
[02:52] <ikonia> again - any chance of english please, not text speak
[02:52] <krisbo9000> i'll read the whole internet in search of answers, by the lord
[02:52] <IdleOne> CapriCorn^80, search google for ndiswrapper and how to install it. does not seem to be a package in ubuntu
[02:52] <ikonia> CapriCorn^80: ubotu sent you a url to read in a private message
[02:52] <Ranpha1> ikonia ==yeah but i can't find the better one. Deluge works fine but has less options , ktorrent has some better options. But i rther want some user input to which suits me better
[02:53] <AmirB> CheshireViking: no, I'm using the built in feisty compiz, but even when I disable compiz, the buttons aren't there and besides, they were displaying just fine (with compiz and everything) just a while ago...
[02:53] <AmirB> hey guys, I suddenly lost the ability to shutdown my computer through the System -> quit menu, every option is there except for shutdown and reboot....so I have to shutdown through a terminal command :(. how do I put it back in the quit option?
[02:53] <CheshireViking> ikonia, i think its ndiswrapper-utils in edgy & feisty
[02:53] <ikonia> AmirB: that is a known bug and resolved in the forum
[02:53] <ikonia> CheshireViking: that makes sense
[02:53] <ikonia> CheshireViking: the problem is the end user is refusing to search and just typing random package names
[02:53] <AmirB> ikonia: where in the forums?
[02:53] <ikonia> AmirB: ubuntu
[02:54] <CheshireViking> ikonia, i saw, its frustrating
[02:54] <CapriCorn^80> its installing nothing from net
[02:54] <AmirB> ikonia: do you have a link or should I search?
[02:54] <ikonia> CapriCorn^80: it is
[02:54] <ikonia> AmirB: search
[02:54] <CapriCorn^80> just tell me a package that i can install using apt-get
[02:54] <CapriCorn^80> i tried amsn
[02:54] <ikonia> CapriCorn^80: just search and read the url ubotu sent you
[02:54] <AmirB> ikonia: k thanks
[02:54] <CapriCorn^80> its about wifi
[02:54] <Tom47> Capricorn sudo apt-get install gtkndis
[02:54] <ikonia> CapriCorn^80: just search and read the url ubotu sent you
[02:54] <CapriCorn^80> i m talking in general
[02:55] <CapriCorn^80> i cannot get any thing from apt-get
[02:55] <ikonia> CapriCorn^80: just search and read the url ubotu sent you
[02:55] <CapriCorn^80> same thing
[02:55] <ikonia> don't lie
[02:55] <ikonia> you've not read the url that quick
[02:55] <krisbo9000> thats not really helping me. i dont see anything on that page for my scenario. external hd, in an enclosure, usb - want to format and partition from this system
[02:55] <Tom47> Capricorn^80 sudo apt-get install ndisgtk
[02:55] <CapriCorn^80> Reading Done , Building done , E:Couldn't find package gtkndis
[02:56] <CheshireViking> CapriCorn^80, is the computer connected to the internet? does firefox or any web browser work
[02:56] <IdleOne> CapriCorn^80, have you enabled universe and multiverse?
[02:56] <CapriCorn^80> yes . coz i can browse n ping www.yahoo.com
[02:56] <ikonia> CapriCorn^80: search synaptic for a test package and hit download on it
 CapriCorn^80, have you enabled universe and multiverse?
[02:57] <okidoki> has anyone done a server install of Feisty w/ LVM?
[02:57] <CapriCorn^80> how can i do this

[02:57] <CapriCorn^80> may be there is problem in settings
[02:57] <IdleOne> CapriCorn^80, the problem is you are not paying attention
[02:58] <krisbo9000> guys - we're not coders
[02:58] <krisbo9000> we're end users
[02:58] <IdleOne> CapriCorn^80, follow the link ubotu just gave you few lines up
[02:58] <CapriCorn^80> well installed ubuntu edgy . i just did sudo apt-get update n i got all updates
[02:58] <ikonia> krisbo9000: and ?
[02:58] <IdleOne> most of us arent coders either
[02:58] <CapriCorn^80> y not now
[02:58] <okidoki> ikonia: do you know of a good guide? can I install it without activating load balancing off the bat?
[02:58] <ikonia> CapriCorn^80: you are ALREADY up to date
[02:58] <krisbo9000> its like - we dont know all the terminologies yet
[02:58] <ikonia> okidoki: load balancing ?
[02:59] <ikonia> krisbo9000: I'm speaking in plain english
[02:59] <okidoki> DNS load balancing
[02:59] <okidoki> thats what I need

[02:59] <ikonia> krisbo9000: your meant to have read the install and basic docs on ubuntu.com
[02:59] <krisbo9000> no freakin idea. yet.
[02:59] <CheshireViking> !apt > krisbo9000
[02:59] <krisbo9000> yeah i did all that before i installed
[02:59] <IdleOne> krisbo9000, apt-get is a command used in a Terminal window to allow you to download and install packages. See !cli
[03:00] <ikonia> krisbo9000: no you didn't or you'd know what apt-get is
[03:00] <IdleOne> sergiu, google
[03:00] <krisbo9000> yeah its the thingy that downloads software
[03:00] <krisbo9000> u mean add remove prog.s??

[03:02] <KrAsHeR> hey guys... anyone can help me with the installation of nvidia 1.0-9755 driver on a Feisty Faw Box? i've installed it by terminal and got it working... but when i reboot, my Xorg goes nuts!
[03:02] <sebbar> hi, what package should I install exactly if I need gtk+ 2.x? (I'm on kubuntu)
[03:02] <ikonia> KrAsHeR: why have you got drivers from nvidia.com ?
[03:02] <ikonia> sebbar: gtk2 is the package you need
[03:02] <jrib> sebbar: what do you want to do with it?
[03:03] <KrAsHeR> i've heard the nvidia.com drivers works better with opengl than the glx one
[03:03] <ikonia> KrAsHeR: you've heard wrong
[03:03] <ikonia> KrAsHeR: ubuntu packages drivers up that are compatible
[03:03] <annihilus> anyone have a suggestion for a nice media player

[03:05] <annihilus> Tom47, just looking for something that feels natural
[03:05] <sebbar> jrib: well I have compiled a program that when executed tells me that the function is not implemented and that I need to recompile it with gtk+2.x or carbon support. hmm I seem to have libgtk2.0 already installed :/
[03:05] <ikonia> sebbar: looks like you didn't include gtk support when building the program
[03:05] <jrib> sebbar: you need the corresponding -dev package to compile with it.  What program are you compiling?
[03:05] <ikonia> or it didn't find it
[03:05] <sergiu> IdleOne
[03:05] <sergiu> it's was Dawn Of ubuntu
[03:05] <sergiu> :)
[03:06] <ikonia> sergiu: search for it
[03:06] <sergiu> found
[03:06] <sergiu> thanks to all
[03:06] <sebbar> ikonia, ah I'll check that. jrib: the opencv library

[03:08] <taurusivy> if i have a amd64 Athlon platform and gonna recompile its kernel
[03:08] <ryuuzaki> Does any one have any ideas on how to install PDT in eclipse??
[03:09] <ikonia> taurusivy: thats not a question
[03:09] <taurusivy> what should i choose in Processor type: Amd64 or x86-like
[03:09] <jrib> !away > Faemir (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:09] <ikonia> taurusivy: depends if your running a 32 or 64 bit os
[03:09] <ikonia> taurusivy: if you have to ask that - should really be compiling a kernel
[03:09] <taurusivy> i am running a 32 bit os
[03:09] <ikonia> taurusivy: why do you want ot compile a kernel
[03:10] <sebbar> jrib: the problem is that if I use that I have no clue how to compile my programs :) can you help me out by chance?
[03:10] <ikonia> sebbar: just use the pre-built package
[03:10] <taurusivy> cos i want to slim the core
[03:10] <taurusivy> :)
[03:10] <IdleOne> sebbar, you dont need to compile most programs with ubuntu.
[03:10] <ikonia> taurusivy: the ubuntu kernel is modular - so very slim
[03:10] <odyssey> hi, how do i turn the screen brightness down on my laptop?
[03:10] <jrib> sebbar: well if you want to use libcv in a program you wrote, you just install libcv-dev and compile as usual.  What are you compiling?  Your own progam that you wrote or something else?
[03:11] <ikonia> odyssey: I don't know, its your laptop, normally by a function key
[03:11] <krisbo9000> kthxbye!!!!1!
[03:11] <taurusivy> whose is not?
[03:11] <ikonia> taurusivy: what ?
[03:11] <IdleOne> sebbar, look in System>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager
[03:11] <odyssey> ikonia: duh, the function key doesnt work
[03:11] <ryuuzaki> odyssey: you can use the one of the menu applets nameley screen brightness
[03:11] <sebbar> jrib: yes, I want to compile an example I found which uses opencv
[03:11] <taurusivy> ikonia:u mean other distro is not modular?
[03:11] <IdleOne> sebbar, oops nm
[03:11] <sebbar> I see, I'll try install the dev version then
[03:11] <xerophyte> does anybody know how can i sort rows in gnumeric with base on one column ?
[03:11] <ikonia> taurusivy: some are, some are not
[03:12] <taurusivy> so if i wanna optimize it, which it the best way??
[03:12] <odyssey> ryuuzaki: cheers
[03:12] <ikonia> taurusivy: you don't need to optimise it
[03:12] <taurusivy> which way...
[03:13] <ikonia> taurusivy: you don't need to optimise it
[03:13] <odyssey> it doesnt work
[03:13] <jrib> sebbar: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/C_Programming/Using_a_Compiler should introduce you to using gcc to compile things and then running the executable
[03:14] <Ranpha1> is their a similair program for p2p blocking like peerguardian? but then for linux?
[03:14] <ikonia> Ranpha1: iptables can block it
[03:14] <ryuuzaki> lol damn.. so u r using the panel applet (right clicked on the panel and selected the brighness applet). if that is the case have u put your laptop to sleep since u turned it on??
[03:15] <Ranpha1> ikonia so i can load a complete blocklist into firestarter?
[03:15] <taurusivy> ikonia:still it has something that i don't need, right?
[03:15] <ikonia> taurusivy: I don't know what your talking about what has something you don't need ?
[03:15] <ikonia> Ranpha1: yeah, just block the ports
[03:15] <taurusivy> i mean the default i386-ubuntu kernel
[03:15] <ikonia> taurusivy: it only loads what you need
[03:16] <odyssey> what do i do for screen brighness if the applet doesnt work?
[03:16] <shockwave1> i fixed the synaptics problem and update problem that happened after trying to install virtualbox. It was listed in the forum. someone asked me if I found it to let them know so i figured i would post it on here in just in case. here it is
[03:16] <shockwave1> sudo dpkg --remove --force-remove-reinstreq virtualbox
[03:16] <Ranpha1> ikonia i mean i have a blocklist with all the ip numbers in them those i want to block not the port numbers
[03:16] <shockwave1> ikonia: thanks for your help
[03:17] <ryuuzaki> odyssey: as i said have you put your comp to sleep or suspend since u started it.. if yes restart and see if it works
[03:17] <ikonia> shockwave1: well done, and great attitude for searching for a solution
[03:17] <taurusivy> so i don't need to compile a raw kernel by hand?
[03:17] <michel> hi people
[03:17] <noob> how do I change the the theme of that loading brown part after you just logged in?
[03:17] <ikonia> taurusivy: there is no need to compile a kernel
[03:17] <michel> how install superkaramba on ubuntu 7.04
[03:17] <michel> ???
[03:17] <kryp> How do you identify yourself?
[03:17] <ikonia> kryp: join #freenode and ask
[03:17] <odyssey> ryuuzaki: i just started, i dont use sleep or suspend
[03:17] <NET||abuse> hey guys.. what do you think are interesting desktop developments of late,, i'm playing with screenlets at the moment,, they're nice, but just toys really.. saw something called "graph" or "graff" recently that looked pretty impressive.. but are they very differently purposed to screenlets?
[03:18] <xerophyte> with gnumeric how can i sort a rows base on one column?
[03:18] <ryuuzaki> odyssey: damn umm not sure otherwise (that is what worked for me) what type of laptop do u have??
[03:18] <odyssey> ryuuzaki: sony vaio c series
[03:18] <kryp> nautilus all of a sudden refuses to come up. When I try starting it from the terminal, nothing prints out
[03:18] <aoirthoir> xerophyte, click on the DATA menu then the SORT menu.
[03:18] <taurusivy> i am wondering if  32-bit feisty os running on my amd64 box needs to specify the CPU type
[03:19] <mikel> michel : manual? -.-
[03:19] <ikonia> taurusivy: 32 bit apps don't run on 64 bit platforms
[03:19] <buenas_werte> NET||abuse: you want bleeding edge? go see cocoon2 framework stuff runs on tomcat
[03:19] <ikonia> taurusivy: forget that
[03:19] <xerophyte> aoirthoir, its only sorting the column .. i want the rows sorted base on one column?

[03:21] <ikonia> taurusivy: this is the same as redhat
[03:21] <aoirthoir> xerophyte, you have to choose all the rows/columns you want to sort
[03:21] <kryp> but when I try to join the #java channel, it says I can't because I am NOT identify
[03:21] <ryuuzaki> odyssey: also u can try System -> Preferances -> Power management and there is a display brightness thing there
[03:21] <ikonia> kryp: join #freenode and ask
[03:21] <kryp> I can't ask questions on freenode
[03:21] <ikonia> kryp: this is UBUNTU support
[03:21] <michel> mikel: yes
[03:21] <odyssey> ryuuzaki: tried that also
[03:21] <aoirthoir> xerophyte, then choose top-bottom, not left-right
[03:21] <xerophyte> aoirthoir, i have selected all the rows, but how can i sort the data base on one column?
[03:21] <odyssey> im guessing this laptop isnt supported
[03:21] <kryp> ikiona I know, but I just wanna know... I can't ask questions on the Freenode channel... it always gives me "command not known"

[03:50] <GenNMX> How does one add a service to init.d?
[03:51] <ikonia> GenNMX: write a script
[03:51] <soundray> GenNMX: have a look at /etc/init.d/skeleton
[03:51] <Cisien> .metacity and .nautilus, they sound like things to try deleting :)
[03:51] <fotoflo__> http://pastebin.ca/525683

[03:51] <Cisien> ok
[03:52] <slap_me> mm, any reason the latest ubuntu update, would have gotten rid of my windows boot menu selection?
[03:52] <soundray> Cisien: you should do this in failsafe mode or in console mode

[03:53] <fotoflo__> whats that about?
[03:53] <GenNMX> soundray: I already made a script. I just need to make it executable and place it in /etc/init.d?
[03:53] <battlesquid> i'm having trouble recording sounds in ubuntu. the mic is working (i can hear it on my speakers when i tap the mic) but no sounds is recorded (using Sound Recorder 2.16.1 in Edgy)

[03:54] <dedi> something with my gnome desktop is weird after installing and deinstalling kde. cant start some programs (like gedit, session manager), and cant klick on the exit button (panels just disapper). anyone a tip to fix this?

[03:55] <soundray> GenNMX: if you want to set it up as a proper system service, you also have to... Okay, that's fine then
[03:55] <GenNMX> soundray: Just copied the file, took off the .sh extension, chmod 755, and invoke-rc.d works, so it should startup on boot, right?
[03:55] <soundray> GenNMX: check out update-rc.d as well
[03:56] <GenNMX> Ahhh, right

[04:04] <JuJuBee> I need advice.  I am currently using NIS in my classroom for logins...  It seems to be broken in the latest (or recent) updates to feisty and it (NIS) breaks userconfig.

[04:05] <JuJuBee> I have less than 20 students and computers.  What options are there that  are easy to replace NIS?
[04:05] <spider48014> what's the sound problem?
[04:05] <JuJuBee> PurpZeY : since when?  Tues am.
[04:06] <JuJuBee> No more updates listed...
[04:06] <Paddy_EIRE> PurpZeY, ok nice one, is there a list of differences between cedega and wine that I could piece together myself?? unfortunately I have no credit card at the mo
[04:06] <PurpZeY> JuJuBee: run uname -r and just give me the return.

[04:10] <ryugaka> Is there something wrong with the repositories right now?
[04:10] <klav> sahil: yep! i chose a different theme :P
[04:10] <PurpZeY> JuJuBee: Yeah, that is just, beyond my scope...But that doesn't mean much, I really don't know all that much.
[04:10] <ryugaka> it keeps telling me it can't resolve to us.blahblahblah when i apt-get
[04:10] <sahil> klav, fastest way of solving it, lol
[04:10] <Paddy_EIRE> !cedega | Paddy_EIRE
[04:11] <limasdf> hi!!!!!!!!!!
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> ho!!!!!!!!!!
[04:11] <limasdf> i'd like to open telnet on my PC
[04:11] <JuJuBee> PurpZey : thanks anyway...
[04:11] <PurpZeY> CarinArr: I don't know if you are experiencing these issues b/c of the new kernel...but that is definitely a known issue...it is fixable...see the forums...of course, if it's not related to that, just ignore me.
[04:11] <klav> sahil: are you experiencing this with the Murrine engine?
[04:11] <limasdf> how can i do
[04:11] <ryugaka> But yah, anyone else having apt-get problems?
[04:11] <klav> ryugaka: me :(
[04:12] <tuxub> how can I set the keyboard language on the command line (ubuntu server)?
[04:12] <PurpZeY> ryugaka: No....I just got 3 different libs.
[04:12] <ryugaka> huh
[04:12] <Lilacor> My laptop keeps on suspending even though I have my power management settings otherwise....what can I do to fix this?
[04:12] <klav> but my problem is different. i install then it says not installed
[04:12] <PurpZeY> ryugaka: I just downloaded 3 packages without issue.
[04:12] <ryugaka> mine says temporary failure resolving
[04:12] <klav> boo :(
[04:13] <CarlFK> ryugaka: what repo?
[04:13] <limasdf> I want to open telnet !!!!!!!!on my PC
[04:13] <PurpZeY> Lilacor: Not positive, but, I got scripts off the forums for powersh and the other related config file, edited them in, and now my power management is much easier...although I think the gui is basically just an ornament now.
[04:13] <limasdf> how can i do!!
[04:13] <Lilacor> PurpZeY: ugh.
[04:13] <diablos_raven> im curious if feisty accepts theater mode for my ati graphics card
[04:13] <CarlFK> limasdf: telnet server or client?
[04:14] <ryugaka> just about all of them haha
[04:14] <Lilacor> PurpZeY: I'll look into that. Thank you.
[04:14] <phanto1> NTFS GEEK QUESTION : I already had asked but nobody cooed solve it. My ntfs part are mounted but no ritesuport is granted (ntfs 3g is instaled). In permissions Owner is set to root . So I set NTFS config tool too enable . Without any success .  all in the irc people said I shooed edi tvia /etc/fstab and ad  /dev/hda1 /mnt/windows ntfs ro,umask=0002,nls=utf8   . It didn't help even after restart but it set NTFS config tool to disabled .         Solwing this
[04:14] <PurpZeY> Lilacor: The fix itself was rather easy. . .
[04:14] <limasdf> Server
[04:14] <CarlFK> ryugaka: name one.
[04:14] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[04:14] <limasdf> i installed ubuntu
[04:14] <limasdf> a minte ago
[04:14] <Azhi_Dahaka> i can't install ubuntu, the live cd doesn't start
[04:14] <Lilacor> phanto1: you're not using NTFS-3G
[04:14] <ryugaka> 'us.archive.ubuntu.com'
[04:14] <CarlFK> limasdf: what country?
[04:14] <Azhi_Dahaka> and the wireless network doesn't work on my laptop
[04:14] <limasdf> the Great Korea
[04:15] <ryugaka> 'security.ubuntu.com'
[04:15] <limasdf> My english is not good
[04:15] <jatt> s
[04:15] <CarlFK> limasdf: ok, so you have XX.archive.ubuntu.com
[04:15] <dr_willis> Azhi_Dahaka,  which live cd? what does it do exactly?
[04:15] <CheshireViking> !telnet | limasdf
[04:15] <Azhi_Dahaka> 7.04
[04:15] <phanto1> Lilacor: I have it instaled . what doo you mean that I dont ose it.
[04:15] <limasdf> yep
[04:15] <ubotu> limasdf: telnet is not safe. Please use ssh instead. See !ssh
[04:15] <CarlFK> limasdf: there is a telnet server, but why not use ssh?
[04:15] <CheshireViking> !ssh | limasdf
[04:15] <ubotu> limasdf: 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/
[04:15] <limasdf> but maybe no body connect my PC  kkk
[04:15] <AnRkey> how do i add a user to a group from the command line
[04:16] <Azhi_Dahaka> it start booting, and then start shouting "buffer i/o error on device hdb"
[04:16] <Lilacor> phanto1: post your fstab and lets take a peek
[04:16] <AnRkey> ?
[04:16] <limasdf> no body will connect my pc
[04:16] <ryugaka> so yah i have no idea why it's doing this.
[04:16] <puppyuser2007040> hi there, Im having trouble with nvidia driver, is geforce fx 5200 a legacy card yet?
[04:16] <limasdf> isn't SSH a few difficult?
[04:16] <CarinArr> yes
[04:16] <tritium> AnRkey: adduser (see its manpage)
[04:16] <dr_willis> ssh makes telnet look primitive.. learn to use ssh...
[04:16] <Faemir> puppyuser2007040, no, i have that card
[04:16] <Azhi_Dahaka> the bootcd starts fine on the laptop, but the wireless network card doesn't work
[04:16] <Faemir> it's not /that/ old :P
[04:16] <AnRkey> tritium, even if the user already exists?
[04:16] <CarlFK> ryugaka: host security.ubuntu.com
[04:17] <puppyuser2007040> Faemir: it wont work for me with the nvidia-glx pacvkage
[04:17] <Faemir> puppyuser2007040, are you using envy or the restricted drivers manager?
[04:17] <CarlFK> ryugaka: in a shell
[04:17] <puppyuser2007040> i dont know?
[04:17] <phanto1>  Lilacor: where to post / ircwindow?
[04:17] <dr_willis> Azhi_Dahaka,  may have to do some research on that specific wireless card. it may not have any linux support. or it may need some extra packages.
[04:17] <Lilacor> phanto1: pastebin
[04:17] <tritium> AnRkey: yes, the manpage explains how
[04:17] <CheshireViking> !paste
[04:17] <Lilacor> !pastebin
[04:17] <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)
[04:17] <Faemir> puppyuser2007040, try the envy script *finds link*
[04:17] <Azhi_Dahaka> i see... and what about the error on the desktop?
[04:17] <AnRkey> tritium, shweet, thanks mate :D
[04:17] <CarlFK> limasdf: apt-get install openssh-server
[04:17] <Azhi_Dahaka> the buffer one
[04:17] <limasdf> but,, to connect by SSH,   I must use specific program ??
[04:17] <tritium> AnRkey: :)
[04:17] <CarinArr> PurpZeY: none of the solutions in the fourms work for me. I've had the problem before on earlier versions of ubuntu, and managed to fixed them. My problem now is that i can't purge nvidia-kernel-common without it removing my restricted modules, and consequently my wireless card stops working
[04:17] <Faemir> puppyuser2007040, http://albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[04:18] <ryugaka> carlfk so i put host security.ubuntu.com?
[04:18] <CheshireViking> !envy
[04:18] <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!
[04:18] <CarlFK> limasdf: yes - ssh.  already installed
[04:18] <puppyuser2007040> Faemir: will it involve more downloading?
[04:18] <limasdf> openssh-server??
[04:18] <puppyuser2007040> I am on dialup
[04:18] <CarlFK> ryugaka: no, type that.
[04:18] <Faemir> puppyuser2007040, a tiny script and the drivers again
[04:18] <limasdf> CarlFK: yeah thx~
[04:18] <Faemir> ah. :(
[04:18] <dr_willis> Azhi_Dahaka,  what is your other ide devices?  could be some device it s not recoginizing.
[04:18] <puppyuser2007040> doh
[04:18] <ryugaka> connection time out
[04:18] <Stranger> pediki
[04:18] <ryugaka> no servers can be reached
[04:18] <puppyuser2007040> but you think it will make all the difference? - it will work?
[04:18] <AnRkey> tritium, how do i list a groups members?
[04:19] <AnRkey> tritium, to confirm it worked
[04:19] <ryugaka> actually i couldn't connect to gaim just a bit ago either
[04:19] <ryugaka> i tried eth0 up and eth0 down
[04:19] <phanto1> Lilacor: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23430/plain/    /dev/hda1  and  /dev/hda4
[04:19] <CarlFK> ryugaka: your DNS settings are hosezed
[04:19] <tritium> AnRkey: it's easier to cat /etc/groups | grep <username>, and see that the user is listed next to the group
[04:20] <ryugaka> rut roh
[04:20] <tritium> AnRkey: /etc/group, rather
[04:20] <ryugaka> can i fix it?
[04:20] <Azhi_Dahaka> 2 hard drives
[04:20] <ryugaka> :D
[04:20] <CarlFK> anyone know the sed command to change edgy to feisty in apt/sources.list  ?
[04:20] <AnRkey> tritium, shweeter thanks
[04:20] <puppyuser2007040> Faemir: it looks like it will do the job for me at any rate
[04:20] <ryugaka> !DNS > ryugaka
[04:20] <ryugaka> :D
[04:20] <Faemir> puppyuser2007040, yeh, it should work. and i have never seen it break systems, only fix them.
[04:21] <limasdf> CarlFK: now i'm installing openssh-server, is there something to modify ??
[04:21] <ryugaka> can i fix my dns stuffz?
[04:21] <puppyuser2007040> well, I will start it up and go to bed then
[04:21] <puppyuser2007040> thanks for the tip
[04:21] <Lilacor> phanto1: have you created those mount points under /media?
[04:21] <dr_willis> CarlFK,  could of fired up a text editor and search/replaced it in the time it would take me to rember that. : )
[04:21] <phanto1> Lilacor: how doo Icheck
[04:21] <CarlFK> limasdf: nope. on a 2nd box, just do ssh 1.2.3.4
[04:22] <CarlFK> limasdf: same as telnet
[04:22] <Azhi_Dahaka> the wireless card on the laptop is a WLAN Broadcomm 802.11b/g
[04:22] <Lilacor> phanto1: in other words, have you created those directories under /media
[04:22] <limasdf> CarlFK: yep~ thank you very much
[04:22] <CapriCorn^80>  how much time it will take to upgrade from 5.10 to 6.04 ?
[04:22] <jatt> depends
[04:22] <CarlFK> limasdf: but, it will use the current user, which may not be what you want.  if so:
[04:22] <ryugaka> carlfk can i fix my dns thingies?
[04:22] <CarlFK> limasdf: nope. on a 2nd box, just do ssh someuser@1.2.3.4
[04:22] <Azhi_Dahaka> 6.04?
[04:22] <phanto1> Lilacor: I dont now for sure Gparted shows ?
[04:22] <CapriCorn^80> any idea ?
[04:23] <Lilacor> phanto1: okay, if you don't know...the answer is most likely no.
[04:23] <CarlFK> ryugaka: proably :)  most likely it is an ISP problem
[04:23] <Lilacor> phanto1: do you know how to list files from the terminal?
[04:23] <ryugaka> u u
[04:23] <limasdf> CarlFK: yes i see
[04:24] <phanto1>  Lilacor: Gparted sows media\/dev/hda1
[04:24] <baggy> mp3 player with an eq, looked around but didn't find anything in Rhythmbox, mplayer, etc.  anyone have any hints on where to look next
[04:24] <ryugaka> well see
[04:24] <ryugaka> the funny part is
[04:24] <Lilacor> phanto1: answer my question
[04:24] <ryugaka> i'm on ubuntu under vmware
[04:24] <ryugaka> but my windows is working fine.
[04:25] <Lilacor> phanto1: do you know how to list files from the command line or not
[04:25] <supernova_> i have an ati 9200 card but i cant install the drivers.. i get syntax error, bad substitution. i have googled but nothing will solve my problem
[04:25] <phanto1>  Lilacor: ls ore doo you mean pastebin
[04:25] <supernova_> anyone who knows what to do..
[04:25] <supernova_> im runing kubuntu
[04:25] <CarlFK> ryugaka: try #vmware
[04:25] <KrAsHeR> hi guys i'm having some problems with my DVD Writer... i can't understand why it can't burn any media in a fresh Feisty Faw box...
[04:25] <Lilacor> phanto1: yes, use ls and list files underneath /media and see if your directories are created for mounting your partitions/volumes
[04:25] <GenNMX> supernova_: What's wrong with xorg-drivers-ati ?
[04:26] <SlimeyPete> supernova_: your problem might stem from the fact that Ubuntu uses Dash rather than Bash when it runs scripts.
[04:26] <SlimeyPete> supernova_: you can fix this, but I forget how :/
[04:26] <baggy> anyone have some idea where I should look next?
[04:26] <SlimeyPete> you have to mess around with symlinks
[04:26] <SlimeyPete> baggy: beep-media-player? I think that has an equalizer
[04:26] <supernova_> GenNMX: i want the best.. (i assume there is better performance with atis one)
[04:27] <supernova_> SlimeyPete: i have tried everything
[04:27] <AnRkey> tritium, all working thanks very much
[04:27] <SlimeyPete> supernova_: why are you using a script to install the driver, by the way?
[04:27] <supernova_> last thing i tried said something about a missin x720 directory or something
[04:27] <kumamoto> my bluefish is crashing when opening a file from a url
[04:27] <KrAsHeR> hi guys i'm having some problems with my DVD Writer... i can't understand why it can't burn any media in a fresh Feisty Faw box...
[04:27] <supernova_> SlimeyPete: my card requires old drivers
[04:27] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i find if the laptop wireless card is supported?
[04:27] <GenNMX> SlimeyPete: New there was something wrong with that statement.../bin/sh is a link to dash, not /bin/bash
[04:27] <Azhi_Dahaka> the wireless card on the laptop is a WLAN Broadcomm 802.11b/g
[04:27] <supernova_> the new in adept doesnt support my card
[04:28] <AnRkey> kumamoto, run bluefish from a console
[04:28] <GenNMX> supernova_: There are flglfx drivers in universe or multiverse, one of those two
[04:28] <CarlFK> Azhi_Dahaka: i have one of those - it works
[04:28] <AnRkey> then when it crashes you will see some output
[04:28] <kumamoto> AnRkey: that too
[04:28] <baggy> SlimeyPete: thanx will try, xmms is way crash-o-matic for me lately
[04:28] <supernova_> GenNMX:  but as i said the new ones doesnt support my card...
[04:29] <GenNMX> supernova_: Oh, well, then you're screwed...at least as far as I know, which isn't much about ATI
[04:29] <AnRkey> kumamoto, i solved a proxy problem like that with bluefish
[04:29] <wols_> supernova_: use the "ati" driver
[04:29] <Azhi_Dahaka> Then what's the issue
[04:29] <soyporti> Good day to you all, i have a problem installing ubuntu feisty, the live cd could not show the GUI. it shows something like: Ata 1 error and  port failed to respond and it shows a lot of numbers and ?????
[04:29] <supernova_> wols_: ?
[04:30] <phanto1> Lilacor: Yes http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23431/plain/
[04:30] <AnRkey> I think i am going to move more servers to Ubuntu! I just love this OS!
[04:30] <dtsmith1984> How do I change the resolution of the console?
[04:30] <wols_> you don't need a prooprietary driver. use the "ati" one
[04:30] <Tiradin> Can someone help me with Amarok? I created a playlist and saved it, but not to a specific location. The next time I started up Amarok, none of my music was in the playlist, and I can't find the saved playlist that I created earlier
[04:30] <soyporti> i don't know if that's a hardware problem
[04:30] <supernova_> is there any way to add displaysetins? im limited to 60Hz only
[04:30] <wols_> I just told you
[04:30] <limasdf> how can i know the user who is connecting my PC by SSH ?
[04:30] <KrAsHeR> hi guys i'm having some problems with my DVD Writer... i can't understand why it can't burn any media in a fresh Feisty Faw box...
[04:30] <wols_> limasdf: ps aux |grep ssh
[04:30] <Lilacor> limasdf: 'who'... 'w'....'last'.....
[04:30] <soyporti> what is Ata 1 port failed to respond???
[04:30] <AnRkey> dtsmith1984, the res in text mode or in the desktop gui console?
[04:31] <Dan[Laptop] > Hi I'm having a bit of trouble booting from my Ubuntu Live CD. Every time I try to boot from the CD drive it ends up booting windows.
[04:31] <wols_> soyporti: an error message
[04:31] <kumamoto> AnRkey: just don't like the idea of scp files back and forth
[04:31] <Dan[Laptop] > I don't see any messages output before it boots windows.
[04:31] <soyporti> Wols: it is harware??
[04:31] <CarlFK> sudo sed -i -e 's/edgy/feisty/g' /etc/apt/sources.list http://jbailey.livejournal.com/26174.html   thanks
[04:31] <dtsmith1984> AnRkey: the text mode like Alt + f1 - f6
[04:31] <wols_> Dan[Laptop] : is CD booting set in bios? is the CD burnt properly to allow booting?
[04:32] <nickspoon> Dan[Laptop] : Is your BIOS set to boot from CD?
[04:32] <wols_> soyporti: ata is your IDE controler
[04:32] <soyporti> it says job control turned off
[04:32] <SlimeyPete> Dan[Laptop] : sounds like either the CD's duff, your writing software doesn't support writing bootable CDs, or your computer doesn't like booting from CD
[04:32] <Dan[Laptop] > Yes, I'm definately booting from CD.
[04:32] <soyporti> so what should i do??
[04:32] <Tiradin> Can someone help me with Amarok? I created a playlist and saved it, but not to a specific location. The next time I started up Amarok, none of my music was in the playlist, and I can't find the saved playlist that I created earlier
[04:32] <Dan[Laptop] > I'm guessing it's the burning software.
[04:32] <Dan[Laptop] > Can you recommend me some burning software to write a bootable CD please?
[04:32] <wols_> Dan[Laptop] : I am guessing it's insufficient permissions
[04:32] <SlimeyPete> Dan[Laptop] : nero'll do it.
[04:32] <Dan[Laptop] > I've tried this "Sonic" piece of rubbish
[04:32] <Dan[Laptop] > Okay thanks
[04:32] <soyporti> wols: the disk have a problem??
[04:32] <wols_> Dan[Laptop] : almost any
[04:32] <rollerskatejamms> Ok so, sound is working for me, but for some reason not in Kopete. I HAVE enabled kopete sounds. Any ideas why?
[04:33] <wols_> soyporti: no the controller probably has
[04:33] <wols_> Dan[Laptop] : what did you use to burn it and did you burn it as image?
[04:33] <soyporti> how can i fix that?
[04:33] <wols_> rollerskatejamms: artsd running?
[04:33] <phanto1> Lilacor: Could you specifie a place forum ..... where I could get help???
[04:33] <limasdf> is there logfile about SSH connected user?
[04:33] <soyporti> Wols:the windows sistem start without a problem but i can't start the live cd
[04:33] <KrAsHeR> Anyone knows if LG DVD Writers have issues with Ubuntu 7.04?
[04:34] <Dan[Laptop] > I didn't burn it as an image no
[04:34] <Dan[Laptop] > I used Sonic
[04:34] <rollerskatejamms> wols_: idk. i normally use alsa. lemme check
[04:34] <wols_> limasdf: /var/log/auth.log for example. man w
[04:34] <Dan[Laptop] > There was an option to "Make Bootable" and it was asking for an Image. I gave it the Ubuntu image and it burnt that
[04:34] <limasdf> is there a logfile about user who connected my PC by SSH
[04:34] <rollerskatejamms> wols_: yes artsd is running
[04:34] <dinochopins> hi everyone
[04:34] <Dan[Laptop] > But when I tried that method I got the message "Missing Operating System" when it was booting
[04:34] <wols_> Dan[Laptop] : that's your problem. it must be burnt as an ISO image
[04:34] <limasdf> wols_ : yep thx~
[04:34] <Dan[Laptop] > So I then tried just burning the files.
[04:34] <Panzer_> yea
[04:34] <dinochopins> I'm bit confused with sources.list
[04:34] <soyporti> wols: give me an advice please. what should i do??
[04:35] <wols_> Dan[Laptop] : you are not supposed to use "make bootable"
[04:35] <Dan[Laptop] > Ah
[04:35] <Dan[Laptop] > So I just burn the image, not the files themselves?
[04:35] <wols_> Dan[Laptop] : use cdburnerxp. it's a free burn problem. or burn it as image in sonic
[04:35] <Dan[Laptop] > Okay.
[04:35] <soyporti> wols:??
[04:35] <Dan[Laptop] > As you can probably tell I don't burn many CDs ;)
[04:35] <wols_> s/problem/program
[04:35] <Panzer_> or if you have a linxu box then cdrecord
[04:35] <Tiradin> Can someone help me with Amarok? I created a playlist and saved it, but not to a specific location. The next time I started up Amarok, none of my music was in the playlist, and I can't find the saved playlist that I created earlier
[04:35] <dinochopins> guys, I have 3 Ubuntu 6.06 repository DVD
[04:36] <soyporti> it says also /bin/sh (i don't remember the rest)
[04:36] <dinochopins> each dvd comes with 3 main folder => .disk, dists, and pool
[04:36] <dinochopins> how can I add each to sources.list ?
[04:36] <soyporti> wols:i> it says also /bin/sh (i don't remember the rest)
[04:36] <AnRkey> dtsmith1984, you can't change that res as far as I know
[04:36] <wols_> dinochopins: man sources.list
[04:36] <Panzer_> not sudo apt-cdrom add?
[04:37] <wols_> soyporti: what are you trying to do? and either you tell us full error messages or it's worthless. and use a pastebin
[04:37] <jair> hello guys
[04:37] <KrAsHeR> hi guys i'm having some problems with my DVD Writer... i can't understand why it can't burn any media in a fresh Feisty Faw box...
[04:37] <wols_> KrAsHeR: permission problems most likely

[04:43] <Tiradin> timma: You might try running ./rtorrent in terminal?

[04:44] <soyporti> well its not my computer in this case,so  i'm not sure
[04:45] <wols_> then find out
[04:45] <soyporti> and i don't understand yet the question
[04:45] <shadeofgrey> if so may we speak at length in private?  i want to dual boot ubuntu REALLY BAD
[04:45] <soyporti> i will try
[04:45] <Tiradin> wols_: might you be able to help me with Amarok?
[04:45] <wols_> phanto2: wrong fs type. it's not ntfs but ntfs-3g
[04:46] <wols_> phanto2: the umask is mostly right. what you need to do is mount it via ntfs-3g and the correct umask to make it world writable
[04:46] <wols_> phanto2: and of course no "ro" cause ro = read only
[04:47] <wols_> shadeofgrey: what do you use for a bootloader?
[04:47] <phanto2> wols_: I try
[04:48] <shadeofgrey> wols_, nothing because i havent installed ubuntu yet
[04:48] <Tiradin> wols_: Never mind my inquiry, it seems i've solved it myself...
[04:48] <shadeofgrey> im too chicken to try it without talking to someone whos actually done it first
[04:49] <timma> got it ty

[04:50] <fxfitz> limasdf, An FTP server, or would you rather just run it through SSH? Its much more secure.
[04:50] <wols_> limasdf: do you you have a router?
[04:50] <soyporti> thanks anyway

[04:52] <limasdf> I'm using ADSL
[04:52] <hylje> fxfitz: frequency scaling

[04:52] <wols_> limasdf: answer my question please
[04:52] <Lowe> timma I use envince
[04:52] <wols_> do you use a router?
[04:52] <limasdf> i don't know what is router -_-;
[04:52] <SlimeyPete> timma: if you double-click on the file, it should open in gview I think?
[04:52] <fxfitz> hydan, Err... I have no idea what that means.
[04:53] <fxfitz> wolki, If you mean like cpufreq, my friend once used it for me, but I really don't know what he did.,
[04:53] <soyporti> wols: please tell me what you think? i know you need more information, just for now tell me something???
[04:53] <wols_> fogwar: your cpu slows down when it's idle to save eectrcity and generate less heat. usually happens with modern CPus and notebooks
[04:53] <wols_> soyporti: I cannot tell you anymore unless you give me the info I asked
[04:53] <soyporti> ok
[04:53] <fxfitz> limasdf, http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=51611

[04:53] <soyporti> jaja
[04:53] <soyporti> sorry
[04:54] <wols_> soyporti: what chipset? intel, sis, ati, nvidia?
[04:54] <soyporti> intel
[04:54] <wols_> and no, chipset wouldn't be your viedocard.
[04:54] <wols_> you can also try the alternative install CD
[04:54] <soyporti> where can i get that cd??
[04:54] <fxfitz> wols_, Well, like I said my friend used cpufreq on this computer about two weeks ago to slow it down to try to save battery (it didn't work though), but ever since he did that my computer has been making "funny noises" coming from the CPU area.
[04:54] <ra1> Request help is there either a way on the ubuntu install disk to install just the base system. Or is there a way once I install ubuntu that it removes all the programs it installed?
[04:54] <wols_> soyporti: ubuntu.com
[04:54] <soyporti> thanks
[04:55] <wols_> fxfitz: what funny noises?
[04:55] <limasdf> fxfitz: thx!! I want this document
[04:55] <wols_> and a notebooks should have frequency scaling enabled. to save battery as you said
[04:55] <ra1> Request help is there either a way on the ubuntu install disk to install just the base system. Or is there a way once I install ubuntu that it removes all the programs it installed?
[04:55] <fxfitz> limasdf, Hehe, Well, just remember google is your friend
[04:55] <fxfitz> wols_, I really can't explain it. Whenever I would go over a link or scroll the cpu makes a funny noise. :-P
[04:56] <elYase> hey, where are java 1.6 files installed, because i dont have anything on /usr/java
[04:56] <Pelo> ra1,  I beleive the alternate intall cd lets you install ubuntu-minimal
[04:56] <Lowe> should ubuntu feisty automaticly detect mp3-players?
[04:56] <Azhi_Dahaka> missing firmware?
[04:56] <Azhi_Dahaka> How can i wireless card work without firmware?
[04:56] <Pelo> Lowe,  usb flash mp3 players should automount as mass media storage
[04:56] <wols_> elYase: dpkg -l |grep java. then you know the package name. after that: dpkg -L <javapackage name>
[04:56] <ra1> Pelo problem with that I can't burn it because, i don't have any cds I do have DVDS, but I can't figure out how to burn a cd iso to a dvd
[04:56] <wols_> Azhi_Dahaka: it can't
[04:57] <Azhi_Dahaka> then it isn't
[04:57] <Azhi_Dahaka> i'm using the wireless card on windows without a hitch
[04:57] <fxfitz> limasdf, Like I said, I just recommend using SFTP to transfer files.
[04:57] <mr_sinatra> i thought thats a german channel
[04:57] <Lowe> Pelo: yeah, i see it in dmesg, but it doesn't automount...
[04:57] <Pelo> ra1, I think the live DVD also has the minimal install on it,  I know it allows the text install as well

[05:00] <Pelo> Lowe, if it doesn't work as a mass storage device try using it with amorak or gtkpod
[05:00] <goban> do any cell phones or likewise size devices run ubuntu ?
[05:00] <limasdf> fixfitz: what is it?
[05:00] <wols_> soyporti: sounds like hardware. does another OS work fine on the disk? either bad disk controller or bad harddisk possibly
[05:00] <wols_> goban: no
[05:00] <fxfitz> limasdf, Hang on, I'm trying to find the link for you.
[05:00] <Pelo> goban,  I beleive so but behond that I can't realy help

[05:01] <goban> yeah im looking at the n800

[05:03] <Ben_> Hi, I want to install ubuntu dual-booting with Windows XP. My laptop has a hidden partition on the hard drive that is used to restore it completely to factory settings. I don't want to touch this partition. Is it easy to avoid doing so when installing ubuntu? How?
[05:03] <phanto2> wols_: I dont anderstand all what you say "mount it via ntfs-3g and the correct umask to make it world writable" Could you tacke me step by step please.
[05:04] <brk3> Ben_: yes easy the installer will guide you though which partition it is to install to
[05:04] <wols_> Ben_: you need some free unpartitioned space on the harddisk. install ubuntu into that and it will all work
[05:04] <ivx> hello, i have an insignia mp3 player and i can't get it working. when i plug it in it pops up and show two file on it, even though there are 125 mp3s. when i try to go to gnomad2 it says no usb devices on the bus, anyone got any ideas?
[05:04] <fxfitz> limasdf, I got the file from my university. I'm putting it on my webserver right now so you can access it.
[05:04] <soyporti> wols: you know what is weird, i just install feisty in a computer with exactly  the same hardware and it doesn't show me an error!!!
[05:04] <Ben_> also, although the partition is hidden in windows, ubuntu (CD booted) can see and mount it fine... so it won't get erased, brk3?
[05:04] <wols_> !ntfs-3g
[05:04] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:04] <SudoBash> i would rather nuke the whole hard drive and install my own copy of XP and Linux
[05:04] <SudoBash> manually
[05:04] <fxfitz> limasdf, In the mean time, read this: http://www.udel.edu/topics/connect/sw/ssh/index.html
[05:04] <brk3> Ben_: right :)
[05:04] <Ben_> cheers :)
[05:04] <Pelo> Ben_, use menu > system > admin > gnome partiton editor to resize your windows partiton and make room for ubuntu to instal on,  and then just install ubuntu to the unallocated hdd space,   back up your important data first
[05:05] <Ben_> ok then
[05:05] <wols_> SudoBash: he can't. he then loses his windows install media since he bought from a shitty place which won't give him a CD
[05:05] <brk3> Ben_: what he said
[05:05] <goban> Ben_, 1. if you dont have any free space, defragment your xp partitian, then resize it with gparted, and install ubuntu on the free space
[05:05] <SudoBash> yeah i just hate the recovery partitions
[05:05] <Ben_> Come to think of it, it could do with defragging. Thanks for all that
[05:05] <SudoBash> im working with one now... IBM
[05:05] <limasdf> fxfitz: yep i'm reading
[05:05] <Pelo> SudoBash,  I hate the fact taht they install all the crapware back

I clicked on it and it started to sing 'the power of love'
[05:11] <steel_lady> Pelo, I never had that song on neither of my laptops
[05:11] <pos69sum> if i need to edit an entry in our ldap directory, do i need to download ldap-utils?
[05:11] <taurusivy> ok, niriven, but how can i enable it though?
[05:11] <radioman> hey
[05:12] <mai> hola
[05:12] <Maerz> in my gnome desktop, the title bar with all its buttons /max/min imize and close) is gone. i think this happened after i installed beryl. but they didn't come back after removing
[05:12] <wols_> steel_lady: I'd say pebkac
[05:12] <niriven> taurusivy: you using the nvidia glx driver?
[05:12] <taurusivy> yes
[05:12] <Pelo> steel_lady, ok , that is very odd,  is it possible someone played a joke on you &
[05:12] <Pelo> ?
[05:12] <steel_lady> wols_ what is pebkac?
[05:12] <taurusivy> from nv homepage
[05:12] <wols_> !pebkac
[05:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about pebkac - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:12] <niriven> taurusivy: nvidia-xconfig   --add-argb-glx-visuals
[05:12] <mai> hello
[05:12] <rollerskatejamms> I've just installed the kubuntu-desktop and xubuntu-desktop packages over a regular ubuntu install. How can I restore the original Ubuntu splash screen?
[05:12] <wols_> steel_lady: user error
[05:13] <mai> I'm new here
[05:13] <SlimeyPete> rollerskatejamms: I think you install usplash-theme-ubuntu
[05:13] <rollerskatejamms> SlimeyPete: but thats already installed
[05:13] <Pelo> mai,  run it's a trap, this place is only here to get you to switch from windows,
[05:14] <steel_lady> Pelo nobody played a joke on me, the only thing that could maybe explain it is that USB stick can also reproduce music. I was borrowing it to my fiend before, she had various music there that she deleted. so I thought maybe it somehow brought up a peace of deleted song and put my name
[05:14] <rollerskatejamms> SlimeyPete: All I did was add kubuntu and xubuntu, not install them from scratch. They were added to a normal ubuntu
[05:14] <mai> someone can help me I want to hear an mp3 song, but I don't know how to do it
[05:14] <steel_lady> wops_ it can not be my error for sure!
[05:14] <steel_lady> wols_
[05:14] <taurusivy> nvidia-xconfig   --add-argb-glx-visuals
[05:14] <taurusivy> ok , i'll try that. thanx
[05:14] <milestone> hi all
[05:14] <Slart> Is there a way to get all the log entries in syslog from cron related activites to go to a separate log? cron.log perhaps?
[05:14] <wols_> steel_lady: how did you remove the usb stick? just unplugged it when you had copied over everything?
[05:14] <niriven> taurusivy: Then ctrl-alt-backspace to make the changes go into effect
[05:14] <brk3> mai: download amaork from synaptic
[05:14] <Slart> instead of syslog?
[05:15] <taurusivy> reboot the X?
[05:15] <Pelo> steel_lady, if a usb storage device is not properly synched before being disconected it can do stuff like that,  I had some strange experiences before I figured that out,   like  files cutting off and playing stuff that was removed  4 or 5 generatios before
[05:15] <niriven> taurusivy: Yup
[05:15] <steel_lady> wols_  I was copying from RED HAT and I had to unmount
[05:15] <taurusivy> effect after sys reboot??
[05:15] <wols_> Slart: man syslog.conf
[05:15] <milestone> i am running my own little bash skript from cron, which checks if my squid is still running, and if i do not get any response, i restart it. It runs just fine. My question is, is it possible to trigger a message to syslog from a bash skript?
[05:15] <Maerz> in my gnome desktop, the title bar with all its buttons (max/min imize and close) is gone. i think this happened after i installed beryl. but they didn't come back after removing
[05:15] <niriven> taurusivy: Reboot X for the addition to take effect, then run desktop effects again
[05:15] <Slart> wols_: mm.. been there.. didn't find anything.. any suggestions?
[05:16] <taurusivy> what if i wanna undo?
[05:16] <wols_> steel_lady: the complain to RH. it changed files there not ubuntu. also: fsck that stick asap
[05:16] <wols_> Slart: it's the place you need to do it
[05:16] <niriven> taurusivy: Take the line out of your Driver section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[05:16] <wols_> Slart: syslog.conf that is
[05:16] <Slart> milestone: hehe.. I've got the opposite problem... I can't keep cron from spamming my syslog.. =)
[05:16] <mai> brk I have an old version of ubuntu
[05:17] <taurusivy> ok , just to affirm it. thanx
[05:17] <Slart> wols_: ok.. I'll take a deep breath and read again... thanks
[05:17] <niriven> taurusivy: Or nvidia-xconfig --no-add-argb-glx-visuals
[05:17] <mai> that it doesn't matter
[05:17] <milestone> Slart: How did you get him to spam it?
[05:17] <milestone> ;)
[05:17] <Endlessguitar> hello
[05:17] <wols_> Slart: if you look at /etc/syslog.conf carefully you will see
[05:17] <Slart> milestone: nothing.. seems to be default on my computer =)
[05:18] <kkathman> taurusivy, niriven   I never had to issue any of those commands or change my xorg manually to get beryl to work - maybe just lucky I guess
[05:18] <niriven> kkathman: I always have to enable argb visuals to see window borders.
[05:18] <kkathman> prolly depends on the individual video card in play :)
[05:19] <kkathman> niriven,  yeah I think thats a card by card decision apparently
[05:19] <taurusivy> kkathman :P
[05:19] <kkathman> ?
[05:20] <niriven> So i guess noone here uses xfce, since this is ubuntu, not xubuntu :-0
[05:20] <Hobbsee> niriven: try #xubuntu
[05:21] <taurusivy> kkathman:  is your video card nv ?
[05:21] <SudoBash> nVidia
[05:22] <kkathman> taurusivy,  of course :)
[05:23] <taurusivy> ok , and u use ubuntu not xbuntu?
[05:23] <taurusivy> this is rid
[05:23] <Tiradin> Could someone tell me what directory GAIM is in by default? I'm trying to install a plugin and I don't know the path...
[05:23] <Maerz> in my gnome desktop, the title bar with all its buttons (max/min imize and close) is gone. i think this happened after i installed beryl. but they didn't come back after removing#
[05:23] <ipx> Tiradin: type whereis gaim
[05:24] <niriven> I use the base install (server) to build my system from base up. Im wondering, how do i get the kernel boot screen, is there an apt package for it?
[05:25] <Tiradin> in terminal?
[05:25] <Tiradin> ipx: in terminal?
[05:25] <ipx> Tiradin: yes
[05:25] <Tiradin> ipx: thank you
[05:25] <ipx> Tiradin: np :)
[05:25] <SlimeyPete> niriven: you mean the splash screen? that's done using usplash - if you apt-cache search for it you should find some packages
[05:25] <Slart> niriven: there is the usplash.. but I don't think that's what you want
[05:25] <Tom47> Tiradin /usr/lib/gaim seems to be where theplugins are located
[05:26] <Slart> niriven: it might be some kind of framebuffer thingy
[05:26] <Slart> Tiradin: isn't there a .gaim folder in your home-folder?
[05:27] <taurusivy> yeah, has to bring up framebuffer
[05:27] <niriven> Slart: No usplash is i believe for the grub bootloader back screen
[05:27] <Tiradin> Tom47: Thank you, I will try that folder.
[05:27] <Tiradin> Slart: No there isn't,
[05:28] <SlimeyPete> niriven: usplash it the ubunto logo with the bar
[05:28] <SlimeyPete> *is
[05:28] <Tiradin> not that I can see anyway.
[05:28] <tgelter> hey all. I'm getting some errors from the firehol firewall that won't let it run. Help please! =)
[05:28] <Slart> oh, it is? I thought usplash was the thing that shows while gnome is loading.. well well
[05:28] <neun> high there
[05:28] <Tiradin> Tom47: checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[05:28] <kkathman> taurusivy,  yes, ubuntu - the install I did was directly from the wiki - sudo install the components, and start beryl-manager - but I did see where if you "dont" see your titlebars, to do the extra argb setting :)
[05:28] <Slart> Tiradin: it's a hidden folder.. since it starts with a dot.. try cd ~/.gaim in a terminal
[05:28] <ipx> Tiradin: in "nautulus", the folder-manager on gnome doesnt show hidden folders by default
[05:29] <Slart> Tiradin: sudo apt-get build-essential
[05:29] <neun> i got a soundcard issue... everything mute onboard soundcard
[05:29] <ph8> whenever i try to apt-get install linux generic, it wants to install nvidia-kernel-common - is there a way to stop this happening?
[05:29] <edika> Hello
[05:29] <edika> Somebody there ?
[05:29] <neun> Tiradin, install some-dev package with apt-get and allow dependencies
[05:29] <Tiradin> Slart: it says invalid build essential.
[05:29] <SlimeyPete> edika: yes, lots of people here
[05:30] <Slart> !info build-essential
[05:30] <ubotu> build-essential: informational list of build-essential packages. In component main, is optional. Version 11.3 (feisty), package size 6 kB, installed size 48 kB
[05:30] <edika> Haha just checking if it workes now ^^
[05:30] <Slart> Tiradin: you copy pasted it? forgot the - between build and essential?
[05:30] <Tiradin> nope
[05:30] <Tiradin> didn't forget
[05:31] <Slart> Tiradin: bah.. sorry... sudo apt-get install build-essential
[05:31] <Slart> Tiradin: my bad.. forgot the install =)
[05:31] <Tom47> Tiradin no help to you there i am afraid
[05:31] <Tiradin> Tom47: That's ok, thank you
[05:31] <Tiradin> Slart: thank you... it's installing now.
[05:31] <danielDOM> Anyone know any software similar to 3dSM that runs in linux ?
[05:32] <Slart> build-essential will give you the default compiler tools.. that error message should go away
[05:32] <Slart> 3dSM?
[05:32] <danielDOM> 3D Studio MAx
[05:32] <neun> danielDOM, try using the windows software using cedega
[05:32] <danielDOM> neun, i tried :\
[05:32] <Tiradin> Slart: I'm trying to install a plugin for Gaim, is this really the process? lol... i just need to find the right folder from GAIM to install the plugin... /usr/bin/gaim is not correct, and neither is /usr/lib/gaim
[05:33] <danielDOM> Tiradin you sure its not a dot slash file ?...
[05:33] <Slart> aaaahh... well.. . don't think so.. there are povray and blender.. neither will please you if you're used to 3dsm
[05:33] <Tiradin> ?
[05:33] <danielDOM> ./ meaning hidden
[05:33] <tgelter> hey all. I'm getting some errors from the firehol firewall that won't let it run. Help please! =)
[05:33] <Tiradin> danielDOM: the readme for the plugin says --> ./configure --with-gaim=/PATH/TO/GAIM
[05:33] <Slart> Tiradin: what happens if you run this in a terminal "ls ~/.gaim"
[05:33] <Tiradin> hmm
[05:33] <Tiradin> that may very well be the folder Slart,
[05:34] <Tiradin> one moment.
[05:34] <Tiradin> yup...
[05:34] <Tiradin> Slart: It seems to be working now, thank you.
[05:34] <Tiradin> <--- newb :)
[05:34] <Slart> you're welcome
[05:34] <Slart> everyone is in the beginning =)
[05:34] <danielDOM> :P Tiradin for future do "ls -a" to see hidden folders like that
[05:34] <danielDOM> i found that out the other day :\
[05:35] <zobi8225> .join #ubuntu-fr\
[05:35] <zobi8225> .join #ubuntu-fr
[05:35] <Tiradin> lol thank you danielDOM :)
[05:35] <||arifaX> hi, i changed my laptop (same model) by just changing the hdd. i fixed my mac-addresses for the network cards in /etc/iftab now I think I need to do the same for my built in bluetooth device because my bluetooth mouse does no longer work. any ideas in which config files I should look?
[05:35] <Slart> you can set nautilus to show hidden folders too
[05:35] <cables> zobi, /join
[05:35] <neun> danielDOM, all i can say is... dont worry... and try again... wine winex cedega always was a bit tricky
[05:35] <Tiradin> Here's my newbness coming out now...
[05:35] <danielDOM> neun, cedega is pretty simplistic, wine on the other hand is more customizable and not noob friendly :P
[05:36] <Tiradin> Slart: this is the message after ./configure: checking for LIBNOTIFY... configure: error: Package requirements (libnotify >= 0.3.2) were not met: No package "libnotify" found
[05:36] <Slart> !info libnotify
[05:36] <ubotu> Package libnotify does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[05:36] <Tiradin> I would imagine that it installed when i did ./configure!
[05:36] <Tiradin> but apparently not :/
[05:36] <Slart> !info libnotify-bin
[05:36] <Tiradin> now I can't do make/make install.
[05:36] <cables> !search libnotify
[05:36] <ubotu> libnotify-bin: sends desktop notifications to a notification daemon. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.4.3-1 (feisty), package size 17 kB, installed size 76 kB
[05:36] <danielDOM> apt-get install libnotify ? :P
[05:36] <ubotu> Found:
[05:37] <Tiradin> lol maybe :P
[05:37] <Slart> Tiradin: it's missing that library there.. libnotify-dev probably
[05:37] <cables> !info libnotify-dev
[05:37] <ubotu> libnotify-dev: sends desktop notifications to a notification daemon. In component main, is optional. Version 0.4.3-1 (feisty), package size 25 kB, installed size 120 kB
[05:37] <Slart> Tiradin: so.. sudo apt-get install libnotify-dev
[05:37] <Tiradin> ah... thank you
[05:37] <cables> Slart, ah, one step ahead of me :)
[05:37] <neun> danielDOM, u can use cedega to turn the main knobs for winex and it provides some kind of "windows nutshell" (c_drive)
[05:37] <killerbunny> Is it possible to change the dictornary in ubuntu without changing locate?
[05:37] <cr0n> hi :)
[05:37] <Slart> cables: it's my awsome ping.. ;)
[05:37] <danielDOM> neun, making a folder in cedega works the same way if im not mistaken
[05:38] <Tiradin> installation ftw.
[05:38] <ponch_> !postfix
[05:38] <ubotu> postfix is the default Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) for Ubuntu. Read more about setting it up here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Postfix or here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto
[05:38] <cables> Slart, I'm using the Java client from my school's computer, which doesn't let me switch to a Dvorak keyboard layout, so yeah, I'm kinda screwed :)
[05:39] <danielDOM> qwerty ftw
[05:39] <cables> I'm hunting and pecking here
[05:39] <danielDOM> Tiradin, what are you isntalling
[05:39] <Slart> Tiradin: basically.. when it complains like that.. do a apt-cache search nameofthefileitwasmissing .... when there are different packages available the -bin package contains just binaries.. to run the library.. -dev contains the source code you need if you're compiling stuff.. etc
[05:39] <cables> except I've sorta retained a little touchtypiness w/ qwerty
[05:39] <Slart> cables: ah.. using dvorak.. is it the best thing since the amiga? =)
[05:39] <Tiradin> danielDOM: in the end, it's gaim-libnotify... popup plugin for GAIM
[05:39] <Tiradin> :P
[05:39] <Tiradin> ahah!!
[05:39] <Tiradin> now it says I don't have GAIM
[05:39] <Tiradin> wow
[05:39] <Tiradin> hold on
[05:40] <cables> Slart, I've never noticed speed improvements, but my hands stopped hurting whenever I typed a lot
[05:40] <danielDOM> seems like quite a bit of trouble for a simple popup :P
[05:40] <Slart> Tiradin: you might need some kind of gaim-dev package
[05:40] <cables> Slart, and it just makes me that much more 1337
[05:40] <Tiradin> probably..
[05:40] <peacelover> siema
[05:40] <cables> hold on a sec, is someone trying to set up libnotify for Gaim?
[05:40] <Tiradin> It lists gaim-libnotify IN the apt-cache... that would of been easier,
[05:40] <danielDOM> cant you just wine AIM ? ...
[05:40] <Slart> cables: especially with one of those blank keyboards... security by obscurity indeed =)
[05:40] <Tiradin> i downloaded a tar.gz
[05:41] <Tiradin> danielDOM: I'm using GAIM currently for IRC/MSN/...
[05:41] <cables> Tiradin, it's in the repos!
[05:41] <Tiradin> yea!
[05:41] <Slart> Tiradin: well.. apt-get is easier.. =)
[05:41] <Tiradin> if i'd known!
[05:41] <enry> how start audacious in tray icon?
[05:41] <cables> Tiradin, you can install gaim-libnotify from Synaptic or your preferred package manager
[05:41] <danielDOM> sude apt-get install xchat ftw :D
[05:41] <danielDOM> sudo* even
[05:42] <cables> Tiradin, however, gaim-libnotify sorta sucks, I recommend gaim-guifications w/ an Ubuntu theme
[05:42] <enry> how start a prograM like audacious in a tray icon?
[05:42] <Slart> I prefer xchat-gnome... for that polished look =) and the added advantage of not having anywhere to change settings =)
[05:42] <user_> hi how do i activate tv-out of the videocard on my laptop so i can see desktop on external monitor ? (using 7.04)
[05:42] <cables> Slart, ick!
[05:42] <deviantintegral> !grub
[05:42] <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
[05:42] <cables> Tiradin, so... are you going to install from the repos now?
[05:42] <Tiradin> cables: is gaim-guifications in the repos?
[05:43] <cables> Tiradin, yeah, both libnotify and guifications are.
[05:43] <Tiradin> ok...
[05:43] <Tiradin> i'll try out guifications
[05:43] <edika> How many here use Beryl ?
[05:43] <sainzeo> @cables: gaim is now pidgin
[05:43] <sainzeo> @edika: i use beryl
[05:43] <cables> sainzeo, I know... but this guy is using Gaim
[05:43] <Gorth> Anyone know if Wubi is compatible with a Compaq nc6000?
[05:43] <user_> hi how do i activate tv-out of the videocard on my laptop so i can see desktop on external monitor ? (using 7.04)
[05:43] <sainzeo> @cables: oh i gotchya, sorry about that
[05:44] <cables> Gorth, try it, the advantage of Wubi is you can remove it really easily if it does not work out
[05:44] <Teddy_Ramone> hi
[05:44] <Teddy_Ramone> is there any way to update ubuntu to kubuntu, without reinstalling system?
[05:44] <carstenpo> is there a package that automatically sets the system time?
[05:44] <Gorth> cables: I have ;) I didn't quite work. It simply stalled after loading the kernel..
[05:44] <cables> Tiradin, I may have mentioned this, but < sudo aptitude install gaim-libnotify gaim-guifications > will install both, then you can enable them each and test them
[05:45] <krzysiek> hello
[05:45] <Teddy_Ramone> czesc
[05:45] <Tiradin> cables: That's good to know for future, but they're both already installed :) and configured.
[05:45] <cables> Gorth, I tried it, it had issues that the normal Ubuntu install didn't have
[05:45] <Tiradin> cables: Though now that i have guification, i'll be turning libnotify off.
[05:45] <Teddy_Ramone> is there any way to update ubuntu to kubuntu, without reinstalling system?
[05:45] <Gorth> cables: There doesn't seem to any documentation on how to debug such issue (early in the process)
[05:45] <Gorth> cables: How far did you get?
[05:46] <sipior> Teddy_Ramone: install kde?
[05:46] <cables> Tiradin, you should download a good Ubuntu theme... there's one available for download, but there's a syntax error in the XML that I had to fix myself for it to work. I don't know where I got it from though
[05:46] <Teddy_Ramone> hehe could you tell me how? give some link or sth?
[05:46] <binaryjay> exit
[05:46] <sipior> Teddy_Ramone: sudo aptitude install kde
[05:46] <cables> Gorth, it went all the way, but then restricted drivers didn't work.
[05:46] <fast> hello guys, can anyone tell me why i get grub error 2 at boot?
[05:47] <sipior> Teddy_Ramone: should get the important bits
[05:47] <cables> Gorth, you should try the LiveCD, and if that works, just go for a normal CD install
[05:47] <labanux> i have a trouble using mondi/mindi. Does it has feature to make backup of mounted filesystem?
[05:47] <Teddy_Ramone> alright, thx
[05:47] <danny_> #freeswitch
[05:47] <Gorth> cables: Ohh, that's way ahead of me ;)
[05:47] <sainzeo> @sipior: is it possible to install kde alongside ubuntu, but only havinig the KDE apps appearing during a KDE session and vice versa?
[05:47] <cables> sainzeo, you have to manually edit the KDE and GNOME menus, or they'll show up in both
[05:47] <sipior> sainzeo: you cuold edit the menu items, i suppose, but why?
[05:47] <Gorth> cables: Live and normal cd works perfectly. I just wanted to try out Wubi. It sounds as a great concept.
[05:48] <sainzeo> @cables, sipior: oh yeah duh
[05:48] <hendrixski> sainzeo, my experience is that KDE will clutter your menu's and then you have to remove all that stuff from your gnome menu
[05:48] <Tiradin> cables: is there a site with themes for guification?
[05:48] <cables> Tiradin, yeah, hold on
[05:48] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: yeah, i don't think i'm going to actually put kde alongside..was just curious
[05:48] <labanux> i'm trying to make backup of my installed ubuntu using mondoarchive.., bit it always fails.., cause it can make backup of mounted partition.. So how can we make backup if the partition should be unmounted?
[05:49] <hendrixski> sainzeo, I tried it and never really got into it.  But there are some people who swear by KDE... who knows you may be one of them.  You can always uninstall if you don't like it
[05:49] <habeeb> Greetings gentlemen
[05:49] <jjazz> Something is launching a dhclient process that puts me on a neighbor's wireless network even if I'm already connected to my wired network.  This is highly annoying.  The ppid of the dhclient process is 1, which is init.  How can I figure out which init script is launching dhclient?  Thanks.
[05:49] <fast> why i get GRUB error 2?? pls...
[05:49] <fast> i cant boot
[05:49] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: yeah, i've used kde before and did like it..somewhat...im pretty sure i'm just going to stick with ubuntu
[05:50] <cables> Tiradin, here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=browse&group_id=92888&atid=676821
[05:50] <akasha> How do I surf with links from my eth1 card instad of eth0 ?
[05:50] <akasha> same question applys to irssi or BitchX
[05:50] <cables> Tiradin, I use Ubuntu Dapper Style, but w/ a modified XML theme... there was an extra tag in there somewhere
[05:50] <labanux> akasha : use iptables..
[05:51] <akasha> labanux: never used it before, to reroute traffic that way
[05:51] <klav> Do programs usually run slower via WINE?
[05:51] <[nitro] > hello .. my friends can't write on disk .. i had the same thing few day ago .. is chmod -Rf 755 /media/disk ok solution ??
[05:51] <sipior> akasha: or set your default route through the network attached to that card: "route add default gw <gateway for eth1>"
[05:51] <SlimeyPete> klav: sometimes, but sometimes they run faster
[05:51] <SlimeyPete> klav: depends on the program
[05:51] <cables> klav, it's not virtualized, so no, but it depends on the program.
[05:51] <akasha> thanx
[05:52] <klav> SlimeyPete: thanks. Yeah it seams Notepad ++ is running reallllly slow
[05:52] <cables> lol
[05:52] <Tiradin> cables: I'm basically trying to make GAIM function close to MSN Messenger for windows... only displaying toasters when a contact signs on, or starts a conversation...
[05:52] <hendrixski> sainzeo, :-) If you want to have some fun, try a bunch of windows managers.  I recommend Enlightenment and looking glass... they're very different though still not practical (give 'em a year or so development time)
[05:52] <klav> cables: thanks
[05:52] <cables> Notepad++ on Linux
[05:52] <Tiradin> cables: will guifications  popup a window when someone sends me a message that isn't in focus?
[05:52] <klav> yeah i just wanted to test wine
[05:52] <sipior> yeah, surprised the universe didn't collapse there
[05:52] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: i may have to look into that :)
[05:52] <klav> first thing i thought of
[05:52] <klav> :P
[05:52] <cables> Tiradin, it's immensely configurable, that's an option in the plugin configuration.
[05:53] <mwe> I wan't to configure a secure remote file server. So FTP is not an option. I don't want the users to be able to browse the entire file system with ssh/scp. What are my options?
[05:53] <cables> Tiradin, also, you can make your own themes or modify existing ones completely through the GUI
[05:53] <Tiradin> cables: I was looking through it... I couldn't find anything that indicated a buddy starting a conversation...
[05:53] <Tiradin> cables: do you remember how you fixed the XML?
[05:53] <Mathdiver> see you tomorrow. bye.
[05:53] <Tiradin> in the Dapper theme.
[05:53] <cables> Tiradin, I'm not sure, I'm not on my Linux box
[05:53] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: do you have links to those two programs?
[05:53] <Tiradin> ah. ok
[05:53] <hendrixski> sainzeo, there's a enlightenment repo for Ubuntu... ubuntuguide.org/ubuntu_festy has it
[05:53] <killerbunny> Is it possible to change the dictionary in ubuntu without changing locate?
[05:53] <cables> Tiradin, no, I forget... but it's possible it's already fixed
[05:54] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: i was wondering cause i would like to see some screenshots and more information about them if its possible
[05:54] <hendrixski> sainzeo, if not then www.get-e.org may have a repo... if you want to compile the latest version then www.enlightenment.org
[05:54] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: thanks!
[05:54] <cables> Tiradin, you just need to untar it to ~/.gaim/guifications/themes
[05:54] <acetech> has anyone here had any success of syncing a wm5 phone with ubuntu?
[05:54] <Tiradin> cables: thanks :)
[05:54] <hendrixski> sainzeo, images.google.com search for looking glass, or enlightenment
[05:54] <cables> Tiradin, if it shows up in the theme list, it's set up right. If it doesn't, you'll need to look at the XML
[05:54] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: sounds good
[05:55] <speedemonV12> hi guys
[05:55] <hendrixski> sainzeo, err.... enlightnment gives you religious stuf.... search for "enlightenment desktop"
[05:56] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: i used enlightenment ubuntu and got some images - how stable is it, and does it use a large chuck of resources?
[05:56] <Josesordo> hello, how to install winrar in linux ubuntu?
[05:56] <Tiradin> cables: do you remember anything about the XML to help me out? it did not show up.
[05:56] <habeeb> Josesordo, I would recommend unrar non-free. And, give me a moment for to find the exact package
[05:56] <habeeb> Or well:
[05:56] <habeeb> !unrar | Josesordo
[05:56] <ubotu> Josesordo: rar is a non-free archive format created by Rarsoft. For instructions on accessing .rar files through the Archive Manager view https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FileCompression. There is a free (as in speech) unrar utility as well, see !info unrar-free
[05:56] <grosminet> hi all
[05:57] <hendrixski> sainzeo, Enlightenment uses about as much resource as GNOME, though more than some other ones XFCE
[05:57] <hendrixski> sainzeo, Looking Glass uses a TON of resources... it's REALLY intense, and 3 dimensional, etc. etc.
[05:57] <Josesordo> thanks
[05:57] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: ah thanks for the info
[05:57] <Faemir> !info unrar-free
[05:57] <ubotu> unrar-free: Unarchiver for .rar files. In component universe, is optional. Version 1:0.0.1+cvs20060609-1 (feisty), package size 17 kB, installed size 80 kB
[05:57] <hendrixski> sainzeo, my pleasure.  I know I had a lot of fun looking at those two, so I'm just passing on the joy
[05:58] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: does it play well with Beryl?
[05:58] <grosminet> i'm stopping at this situation.. $ sudo /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl
[05:58] <grosminet> Making sure services for VMware Workstation are stopped.
[05:58] <grosminet> sh: /etc/init.d/vmware: Permission denied
[05:58] <grosminet> sh: /etc/init.d/vmware: Permission denied
[05:58] <grosminet> Unable to stop services for VMware Workstation
[05:58] <grosminet> how i can resolve?
[05:58] <Faemir> grosminet, please use pastebin :(
[05:58] <hendrixski> sainzeo, no.  neither of those do ... but with Looking Glass you don't need beryl, it's already 3D
[05:58] <grosminet> fae ops.. sorry
[05:58] <Faemir> !info looking glass
[05:58] <ubotu> Package looking does not exist in feisty
[05:58] <Faemir> :(
[05:58] <habeeb> !info looking-glass
[05:58] <ubotu> Package looking-glass does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[05:59] <labanux> is that any software we can use to backup our installed ubuntu to DVD or CD media, at least in image format..?
[05:59] <habeeb> :/
[05:59] <b0wlman> i am gay
[05:59] <joe4444> when my computer returns from hibernating (Edgy) i have no network connection... is this a known bug or the expected result?  can i re-establish my network connection w/o restarting?
[05:59] <habeeb> b0wlman, awesome
[05:59] <Josesordo> unrar 3.70 BETA 3 is good??
[05:59] <sainzeo> @hendrixski: ah, i see
[05:59] <PurpZeY> joe4444: Sounds familiar to me.
[05:59] <labanux> joe4444: seems it's a but.., i have that problem too
[06:00] <PurpZeY> joe4444: Check the forums, I'm not sure there is a fix though.
[06:00] <joe4444> does Feisty have that problem?
[06:00] <joe4444> i've been meaning to upgrade
[06:02] <bennyp> hey there I just installed ubuntustudio on a vmware fusion VM. I need to install a kernel module, but the vmware installer doesn't accept the generic kernel headers, because my kernel is low-latency
[06:02] <bennyp> Do i need to add a repo and download ubustudio's custom headers?
[06:02] <grosminet> guys.. i'm stopped to this problem.. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23455/   how can i resolve?
[06:02] <wols_> joe4444: depends how you configured your network. either via gnome network manager or vis sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[06:03] <wols_> bennyp: you need the kernel headers which correspond to your running kernel
[06:03] <joe4444> wols_, it was auto-magically configured by the livecd
[06:03] <wols_> !pl | B2Ka
[06:03] <ubotu> B2Ka: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[06:03] <bennyp> wols_ true true, but there is no linux-***-lowlatency dir in /usr/src/
[06:04] <neun> i've successfully upgraded to feisty... now my nvidia-glx doesnt work i changed back to "nv" does anyone want to help me?
[06:04] <Noiano> o
[06:04] <wols_> bennyp: where did you get your kernel?
[06:04] <Noiano> hello
[06:04] <drewby> Hi peoples :)
[06:04] <wols_> !nvidia  | neun
[06:04] <ubotu> neun: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:04] <drewby> I've pinpointed the problem I've been having to a particular situation.
[06:04] <bennyp> wols_: ubuntustudio ISO then automatic upgrade
[06:04] <acetech> has anyone setup a wm5 device in ubuntu?
[06:05] <neun> wobx, thank you i've installed those nvidia-glx-new
[06:05] <bennyp> wols_: my kernel is 2.6.20-16-lowlatency
[06:05] <neun> but now the Xserver crashes
[06:05] <FunnyLookinHat> ace_suares, wm5?
[06:05] <Noiano> is it possible to install xubuntu from the hard disk?i mean I want to copy the image of the xubuntu cd on the hard disk and have the installation from the hard disk
[06:05] <FunnyLookinHat> Woops
[06:05] <neun> bennyp, i installed that kernel too
[06:05] <FunnyLookinHat> acetech, wm5?
[06:05] <drewby> Apparently when I have one user select switch user, then I log in another user.  Then once I try to log out that user, the computer gets stuck on a black screen.
[06:05] <wols_> bennyp: then ask those people you made your kernel to give you headers
[06:05] <acetech> windows mobile 5
[06:05] <FunnyLookinHat> Ahh...
[06:05] <wols_> neun: how did you install it?
[06:05] <FunnyLookinHat> acetech, try searching ubuntuforums.org or the wiki?
[06:06] <Noiano> isnt' possible?
[06:06] <neun> wobx, well i installed ubuntu 5.dontremember and upgraded subsequently to feisty during the time
[06:06] <wols_> Noiano: there are ways but now the way you imagine
[06:06] <drewby> Has anyone experienced the same problem with user switching?
[06:07] <bennyp> neun:  in /usr/src do you have a dir like linux-****-lowlatency?
[06:07] <josue_> Good morning,  In feisty each time I manually eject the CD from CDROM drive ubuntu does recognize if anew disc inserted, already tried, mounting/umounting the drive, any idea suggestion about this?
[06:07] <neun> wobx, i had AGP-nvidia now i have a new mainboard with PCI-E
[06:07] <neun> bennyp, yes
[06:07] <Noiano> wols_, which ways?
[06:07] <wols_> !debootstrap
[06:07] <habeeb> josue_, can you pastebin your /etc/fstab ?
[06:07] <ubotu> debootstrap is used to create a !Debian or Ubuntu base system from scratch, without requiring the availability of !dpkg or !APT. It does this by downloading !.deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them into a directory you can eventually !chroot into.
[06:07] <bennyp> neun: did you use a special repo to get the kernel?
[06:07] <the> irc://irc.frog-world.net/wizards-wond
[06:07] <neun> bennyp, no
[06:07] <wols_> neun: i am not wobx
[06:07] <leninIdebian> does someone know how to split a mp3 at sound gaps (or where to look)?
[06:08] <wols_> and it doesn't matter if agp or nvidia
[06:08] <neun> bennyp, de.archive.ubuntu.com
[06:08] <Noiano> wols_, the sistem on which i have to install xubuntu has no connection, no cdrom drive
[06:08] <wols_> and I ask you again: how did you install the nvidia drivers?
[06:08] <raphael_> can a botched upgrade cause data loss in files that has nothing to do with ubuntu?
[06:08] <bennyp> neun:  thank you
[06:08] <neun> wols_, sorry used tab completition
[06:08] <wols_> raphael_: where are those files?
[06:09] <bennyp> wols_: neun: I found the package thank you for your help
[06:09] <joe4444> wols_, so i'll just need to run /etc/init.d/networking restart when my comp returns from hibernation?  do you know if Feisty also has this problem?
[06:09] <wols_> joe4444: I don't. and I said you should try it
[06:09] <raphael_> wols_: it is only a question. I mean things like mp3`s or video`s
[06:09] <wols_> no guarantees
[06:09] <hendrixski> Faemir, you can get looking glass from Suns website ... it compiles easily... configuration is a different matter
[06:09] <hendrixski> alrighty, now that I've fielded a question or two.. I came here to ask one...
[06:09] <hendrixski> anyway, is there a performance cost to soft linking?
[06:09] <wols_> raphael_: no
[06:09] <hendrixski> because I have a 4 gig partition for /dev/hda1  the rest is /home ... and I'm always out of space on / because of pbuilder
[06:09] <hendrixski> so... if I copy the pbuilder stuff to  /home, and soft link it.. will it run slower than it already does?
[06:10] <josue_> habbed: here is: http://rafb.net/p/Dmmxar24.html
[06:10] <the> #frog-world
[06:10] <wols_> hendrixski: you only need pbuilder for compiling stuff?
[06:10] <drewby> I'm running a 1.1 Ghz 512 mb ram.  Feisty Fawn.  Got an orinoco installed through ndiswrapper, broken lexmark drivers, beryl and easy ubuntu installed.  Apparently when I have one user select switch user, then I log in another user, then once I try to log out that user, the computer gets stuck on a black screen.  The mouse still moves, and I can ctrl+alt+backspace out of it.
[06:10] <joe4444> wols_, i'll try that next time... thanks
[06:10] <wols_> hendrixski: you won't notice it
[06:10] <habeeb> josue_, no well... your fstab. Do a: cat /etc/fstab, and paste the output.
[06:11] <habeeb> !automatix > habeeb
[06:11] <leo|term> When i try to install psyBNC it says it cant find ncurses, from what i can tell i got ncurses, any ideas?
[06:12] <neun> wols_, i found an error that said the nvidia-glx modules were different from those installed with the kernel, but i still dont get it
[06:12] <wols_> leo|term: how did you install it?
[06:12] <grosminet> hi guys.. i'm stopped to this problem.. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23455/   how can i resolve?
[06:12] <wols_> neun: either answer my question or ignore me please
[06:13] <josue_> habeed:   just used the mount command from the terminal and I can see the new disc
[06:13] <leo|term> when i try and do "sudo apt-get install ncurses" or ncurses-dev it says it cant find the package or that i already got it wols_
[06:13] <habeeb> josue_, yes.. thats normal. but wouldn't you also like it to be automatic?
[06:13] <josue_> yah, that would be nice
[06:13] <neun> wols_ ok i used apt, apt-get install nvidia-glx-new && nvidia-xconfig && nvidia-glx-enable
[06:13] <wols_> leo|term: answer my question pelase
[06:13] <drewby> Anybody else have a problem with switching users?
[06:13] <wols_> neun: you don't have the nvidia kernel module installed
[06:13] <PriceChild> neun, no need to do the second if you do the 3rd
[06:13] <josue_> so, I'll reproduce it back, lemme take off the CD again
[06:14] <zeroflag> GDM/XDMCP always imediately closes any incoming vnc connection. any ideas how to fix that without gdm? (that won't start in X either)
[06:14] <hendrixski> wols_, my network connection shorted out... you said I wouldn't notice a performance difference?
[06:14] <leo|term> never mind now wols_, i solved it... ofc a typo
[06:14] <habeeb> josue_, ok then please tell me which device is your CD/DVD rom drive, and paste your fstab ;)
[06:14] <Faemir> hendrixski, ok, looking glass looks awesome
[06:14] <wols_> hendrixski: yes
[06:14] <habeeb> looking glass the Java thing?
[06:14] <hendrixski> Faemir, it looks awesome, and it's fun and inovative but still leaves a little bit to be desired in the usability department
[06:15] <josue_> habeeb: here fstab: http://rafb.net/p/GZT2pJ39.html
[06:15] <neun> wols_, i used synaptic to search packaged containing "nvidia" and i checked every "-restricted-glx-new" item suiteable for my system/kernel
[06:15] <payam> #ubuntu.se
[06:15] <hendrixski> wols_, Ok... I guess the only other thing I should be asking myself is if there isn't a better way... like to uninstall the pbuilder chroot and create a new one in a new location?
[06:15] <Danzor> Okay, I've got my ubuntu live CD working now and I'm able to boot from it
[06:15] <Danzor> But when I start ubuntu it fails to start the GUI
[06:15] <habeeb> I guess that /dev/scd0 is your CD-rom device, eh? If thats the case, editing the "noauto" in that line to "auto" will make the trick.
[06:16] <topaz> Hi
[06:16] <Danzor> What are the most likely causes/solutions for this problem?
[06:16] <josue_> cool, thanks buddy
[06:16] <FlashNet> Hey what does postfix do?
[06:16] <topaz> Is a 128 Mb VDS (UBUNTU) enough to run a rails application.
[06:16] <wols_> hendrixski: just copy it?
[06:16] <PurpZeY> Danzor: You have any error or anything? At what point does it fail?
[06:17] <Seba> hello?
[06:17] <Seba> :P
[06:17] <Danzor> It loads to a Command line briefly, then seems to try to load the GUI, fails and mentions an X server.
[06:17] <josue_> habeeb: need to reboot?
[06:17] <Tatster> Flashnet: Postfix is a Mail server (to be precise a Mail Transfer Agent)
[06:17] <PurpZeY> Danzor: 1) What happens after it fails? 2) What does it mention, specifically?
[06:17] <Danzor> Damn I should have written this down
[06:18] <Nalleman> Hi, is there anyone here with a dell inspiron 1405?
[06:18] <Danzor> I'm going to go grab a pen & paper, and write this down more specifically
[06:18] <PurpZeY> !anyone | Nalleman
[06:18] <ubotu> Nalleman: 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?
[06:18] <wols_> !anyone | Nalleman
[06:18] <Danzor> I'll be back...
[06:18] <krzysiek> siemano
[06:18] <wols_> Danzor: check your xorg.log in /var/log too
[06:18] <FlashNet> Taster: I want to host my own mail server on ubuntu, i have 15employees and a fixed ip and domain, can ubuntu do this?
[06:18] <josue_> habeeb: forget it, seems to work ok now.  thanks.
[06:18] <enry> were is the audacious "status icon plugin"???
[06:18] <enry> were is the audacious "status icon plugin"???
[06:18] <wols_> FlashNet: yes. but you will need more than just postfix
[06:18] <krzysiek> czesc
[06:19] <enry> i have just installed all the plugin with sinaptic
[06:19] <neun> wols_ PriceChild, i found an error saying kernelmodules and nvidia-modules version were mismatching

[06:19] <Nalleman> ok, is there anyone with a dell inspiron 1405 that have problems with sound and framerate when trying to play games (are you happy now?)?
[06:20] <krzysiek> :)
[06:20] <wols_> Nalleman: what videocard do you have and what X driver do you use?
[06:20] <sp3tt_> I'm trying to boot a ubuntu machine, but it stops after running fsck.
[06:20] <krzysiek> are you poland user's?
[06:20] <sp3tt_> "/var: clean .../... files, .../... blocks [OK] "
[06:20] <wols_> sp3tt_: error messages are not there to make pretty pictures. they're there so you can tell them to us
[06:20] <sp3tt_> Then two blank lines and nothing ahppens.
[06:20] <Nalleman> wols_, the videocard is a intel card not sure what it's named
[06:20] <sp3tt_> I was typing.

[06:20] <ubotu> krzysiek: Mozesz uzyskac pomoc w jezyku polskim na #ubuntu-pl
[06:21] <FlashNet> so if i bought the domain fatpug.com, from dyndns.org , and its a custom dns, i can host muy own mail correct?
[06:21] <Nalleman> wols_, X driver.. not sure,915resolution?
[06:21] <hendrixski> krzysiek, wszyscy tutaj s z USA lub z anglii
[06:21] <wols_> FlashNet: yes. IF you aren't in a dialup ip range (dsl and cable usually are in such a reange too)
[06:21] <mwe> I wan't to set up a secure remote file server. I don't want users to be able to login and browse the entire file system with ssh/scp. What are my options?
[06:21] <sp3tt_> I get som unknown stanzas for files in /etc/event.d/
[06:22] <zero> i instlled php with sudo apt-get install php5, but now i can't find php.ini

[06:22] <Tatster> I'm trying to get a samba server running on Feisty - I can connect from a mac laptop and a different Feisty machine using smb://ip_address/   but I can't browse to any shares using nautilus etc?   Any ideas?
[06:22] <zero> where are those files stored?
[06:22] <wols_> cause if you are in a dialup IP range many servers won't accept mail when you send it to them
[06:22] <sp3tt_> Should I take a live cd, boot and edit those files?
[06:22] <neun> !nvidia
[06:22] <wastedfluid> Hey guys.  I deleted, and created a new swap; it's still "/dev/hda5" - however, when I start Ubuntu.. it's NEVER activated (free shows 3 zero's) - but if i "sudo /usr/mkswap /dev/hda5" - it works.  Any ideas?
[06:22] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[06:22] <FlashNet> wols_ ihave a fixed ip, would you mind helping me setup up my mail server?
[06:22] <wols_> krzysiek: this is NOT a polish channel. go to #ubuntu-pl please
[06:22] <neun> :)
[06:23] <neun> wastedfluid, swapon /dev/hda5
[06:23] <Seba> hey, my installation freezes in 15% :(
[06:23] <PurpZeY> Seba: Have you verified the CD?
[06:23] <habeeb> josue_, well, since it works right now, and your CD-rom is mounted what would the point be on rebooting?
[06:24] <sp3tt_> Of course, irc is futile...
[06:24] <wastedfluid> neun: I tried that.  sudo swapon -a ?
[06:24] <wols_> zero: do you want to use php via console or with a webserver?
[06:24] <habeeb> aw sorry, just saw your next reply, josue_ nvm
[06:24] <Nalleman> well, if anyone with a dell inspiron e1405 have experienced the same problems (bad framerate and sound) and know how to fix it, pls msg me.
[06:24] <wols_> Nalleman: answer my question please. ALL of them
[06:24] <neun> wastedfluid, if you have a correct entry @ /etc/fstab it should work
[06:24] <Seba> PurpZeY: yes
[06:25] <zero> wols_: webserver
[06:25] <wastedfluid> neun: I'm pretty sure I do have the correct entry.  It's the exact same entry it was before.
[06:25] <Nalleman> wols_, I would, if i knew how to...
[06:25] <labanux> anyone ever tried monoarchive here?
[06:25] <labanux> anyone ever tried mondoarchive here?
[06:25] <wols_> zero: you need libapache2-mod-php5
[06:25] <zero> wols_: i need to set up GD support
[06:25] <gamerZ> hello
[06:25] <Seba> PurpZeY: i know what to do :P...so newbie :(..well, thanks
[06:26] <wols_> zero: that's yet another package
[06:26] <zero> wols_: everything it's working fine, with apache and mysql
[06:26] <zero> wols_:  i just want to set up that support
[06:26] <wols_> zero: and no, you don't need to edit php.ini for it
[06:26] <zero> wols_:  ohh really
[06:26] <Esers> hey all! Got some question about partitions and ubuntu instalation
[06:26] <zero> wols_:  so what i have to do?
[06:26] <labanux> !mondoarchive
[06:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mondoarchive - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:26] <wols_> zero: install gd for php5?
[06:26] <labanux> !mondo
[06:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mondo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:26] <labanux> !mindi
[06:26] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mindi - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:26] <zero> wols_:  yep
[06:26] <wols_> labanux: ask your real question about
[06:27] <wols_> zero: do you know what a rhetorical question is?
[06:27] <neun> wasted oh well... maybe u have some problems with the logical partitions but if 1. fdisk "knows" hda5 is linux swap (82 afair) and 2. fstab entry is correct it should work with "swapon -a"
[06:27] <zero> wols_: .... not really..
[06:27] <Esers> I would like to install ubuntu as a secondary os after windows xp is there a guide. Haven't done it for a long time how about partitions and boot menus?
[06:27] <wols_> zero: I noticed. ubuntu has a gd package
[06:27] <nickrud> !info mindi
[06:27] <ubotu> mindi: creates boot/root disks based on your system. In component universe, is optional. Version 2.20-2ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 152 kB, installed size 728 kB (Only available for amd64 i386 ia64)
[06:27] <wastedfluid> Esers: There's not much to it.  It'll take care of it all for you.
[06:27] <Esers> maybe someone knows a useful guide
[06:27] <Nalleman> wols_, bbl, should try to find the answers to the questions.
[06:28] <neun> wastedfluid, and if not try running tail -f /var/log/messages & swapon /dev/hda5
[06:28] <wastedfluid> Honestly.  You have to re-size the partitions, that's about it
[06:28] <Esers> the partition part is confusing
[06:28] <zero> wols_: and the package it's on package.debian.org?
[06:28] <wastedfluid> Well, all you have to do is make about 15gb "unallocated space"
[06:28] <Esers> ok i could make partitions in windows
[06:28] <wastedfluid> and Ubuntu will format it as it likes
[06:28] <hfb> Will there be a live Ubuntu 7.04 with ppc support available for download or is it nolonger being produced?
[06:28] <wols_> zero: considering we are in #ubuntu: why would it be. what distro do you run?
[06:28] <zero> wols_: sudo apt-get install gd ...? that would work?
[06:28] <Esers> don't have that much space
[06:28] <wastedfluid> How much do you have?
[06:28] <zero> wols_: ubuntu 7.04
[06:28] <Esers> goabout 5-
[06:28] <Esers> tb about 5-7
[06:29] <wols_> zero: then check ubuntu repos. not debian's duh!
[06:29] <Esers> swap about twice the ram
[06:29] <zero> wols_: lol i've found ubuntu's packages there :P
[06:29] <wols_> zero: and learn to use apt-cache, especially apt-cache search
[06:29] <nickrud> zero, php5-gd is what you're looking for
[06:29] <Esers> it's about 1,6GB
[06:29] <wols_> zero: there is not a single ubuntu package on dbeian.org. not a single one
[06:29] <zero> wols_: o_O!!
[06:29] <zero> wols_: generic package :P?
[06:29] <wols_> Esers: don't need so much. you can get away with say 512MB usually
[06:29] <wastedfluid> Esers: you just named 13.6gb...
[06:30] <zero> nickrud: thx a lot ^_^!!
[06:30] <wastedfluid> The most I'
[06:30] <zero> wols_: apt-cache didn't know that
[06:30] <zero> wols_ im newbie here sorry :$
[06:30] <wastedfluid> The most I've ever seen my swap get, and regardless of the fact I have to enable it for it to actually use it.. lol, is about 18mb.
[06:30] <wols_> zero: it does, if one knows how to use it
[06:30] <elYase> what is the similar of Xnest in Ubuntu?
[06:30] <nmsd> hi all
[06:30] <Esers> will it run ok with 860mb RAM AND 512 swap?
[06:30] <wols_> Esers: easily
[06:30] <nmsd> i am newbie in ubuntu, i just installed ubuntu server edition
[06:30] <nmsd> but it couldn't acknowledge my network card
[06:31] <nmsd> what should i do?
[06:31] <Esers> ok how about makeing a partition in windows lets say a ext3 5gb partition
[06:31] <Esers> and a 512Mb swap
[06:31] <wols_> nmsd: what network card is it? what chip does it use?
[06:31] <Esers> will ubuntu self install a boot menu after i choose this partition in ubuntu?
[06:31] <wastedfluid> Esers: I'm telling you.  Make unallocated space, and it'll make it for you.
[06:31] <kaktuskatta> Hi! I'm experiencing sudden crashes of both Opera and Gaim. They both terminate with no errormessage. Does anyone have a clue?
[06:31] <wols_> Esers: do NOT make any partitions in windows at all
[06:31] <wastedfluid> Yes, it installs grub.
[06:31] <nmsd> it's from TPlink, i managed to make it work on freebsd, but not in ubuntu
[06:31] <wols_> Esers: and yes it will install a boot menu with ubuntu and windows on it
[06:31] <wick2o> hello
[06:31] <zero> wols_: where can i find a manual to learn apt-cahe ?
[06:32] <wols_> kalpik: start them from a xterminal and check for output there
[06:32] <zero> wols_: apt-cache --helps?
[06:32] <wick2o> what is the replace being used for efty? (6.10) for inittab ?
[06:32] <zero> wols_: apt-cache --help**
[06:32] <Esers> so just take the 5,5Gb space and make unalocated and the chose to format it, right?
[06:32] <wols_> zero: man apt-cache for example
[06:32] <Predicon> hey I'm trying to install ubuntu 6.10 i386 desktop with the live cd version and i am getting this error while it is trying to boot, [17179570.124000]  PCI: Cannot allocate resource region 1 of device 0000:00:14.0
[06:32] <Predicon> can anyone help me with this error
[06:32] <wick2o> i need to add a line in /etc/inittab but the new version doesnt seem to have one
[06:32] <wols_> Esers: you make it unallocated and then boot the Ubuntu CD
[06:32] <nmsd> i just add another lancard for my computer, but i donno how to enable it
[06:32] <zero> wols_: thx, plz don't be so hard with newbies like me ^^!
[06:32] <kaktuskatta> I'm constantly getting the message "operapluginwrapper terminated unexpectedly"
[06:32] <wastedfluid> Esers: I'm telling you.  Just make it unallocated, and then boot from the LIVE CD.  Tell it to use your largest "free" space, and it'll do it for you.
[06:32] <Esers> ok got it thank you guys
[06:33] <wastedfluid> then, you'll get grub for your boot loader.. it'll work fine
[06:33] <wols_> Predicon: what is device 0000:0014.0? use lspci to check
[06:33] <wastedfluid> I have the exact same setup.
[06:33] <wick2o> nmsd: do a dmesg | grep -i eth and see what interface you have
[06:33] <Predicon> k
[06:33] <Predicon> hold on
[06:33] <wick2o> then edit /etc/network/interfaces
[06:33] <labanux> wols_: how can i make backup of mounted partition using mondo?
[06:33] <Esers> worried about losing files
[06:33] <Esers> don't want to use my acer instalation
[06:33] <wols_> labanux: try to remount it read only
[06:33] <Esers> don't have a standalone instalation
 nmsd: do a dmesg | grep -i eth and see what interface you have <--- i tried to do the command, but nothing happnes
[06:34] <sahil> i recently installed Pidgin but the folder has a little lock icon on it and wont allow me to change the icons and stuff
[06:34] <wols_> nmsd: /sbin/ifconfig -a. does the new card show?
[06:34] <Pelo> sahil,  gksu nautilus
[06:34] <enry> weeeyy nobody know how to install latest audacious in feisty???
[06:34] <wols_> sahil: how did you install it? via ubuntu package or manually?
[06:34] <nmsd> nope, just the loopback
[06:34] <labanux> wols_: it's already mounted in read only by default isn;t it?
[06:35] <sahil> wols_ i got the deb and just doubleclicked it
[06:35] <wols_> labanux: what kind of partition?
[06:35] <zero> nickrud:  gd_info() would be the best way to prove if it's running well?
[06:35] <sahil> Pelo can you explain it a lil further
[06:35] <wick2o> edgy...wheres the inittab? (read wheres the beef?)
[06:35] <DavidCraft> I want my shared folder to only be accessible on the network to ONE specific user
[06:35] <labanux> wols_: as the partition is my linux system partition.., its ext3
[06:35] <DavidCraft> how do I do this?
[06:35] <Fathefner> i have install ubuntu 7.04 and the desktop effects stays on when i log in how do i turn them off
[06:35] <wols_> sahil: then it should "just work". check the permissions of the folder with ls -l
[06:35] <Pelo> sahil, open the folder as root
[06:35] <wols_> labanux: it's not mounted read only
[06:35] <neun> wols_, i found that this card is not supported
[06:35] <wols_> labanux: you can see by running mount. it will say rw
[06:35] <nmsd> nope, just the loopback
[06:35] <sahil> i am a noob, and know nothing, can you be more specific
[06:36] <DavidCraft> I have already set the general permissions for the folder or w/e, but is there some otehr setting I need to do for the networkinging aspect?
[06:36] <wols_> neun: what card exactly? and what driver and what version?
[06:36] <Pelo> DavidCraft, you probably have to specify user permissons in samba
[06:36] <labanux> wols_ : it says defaults,errors=remount-ro but not rw
[06:36] <neun> wols_ thank you so far, do you know how to compile the nvidia-glx-new-dev?
[06:36] <Pelo> DavidCraft, try asking in #samba
[06:36] <DavidCraft> Pelo: how?
[06:36] <DavidCraft> right...
[06:36] <neun> wols_ 8500GT
[06:36] <wols_> DavidCraft: editing smb.conf is also needed
[06:36] <nmsd> i am using dlink 530tx and realtek 8139, but i am using ubuntu 5.10
[06:36] <Pelo> DavidCraft,  there might be some help in this  http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[06:36] <Kalisto> how dangerous if it to "reinstall" pam. im having trouble and want to start from a fresh slate (no special conf were undergone with pam after initial installation)
[06:37] <nmsd> do you think i could do something to make it work?
[06:37] <wols_> neun: try a driver directly from nvidia. the latest you can find. version number >= 100
[06:37] <DoubleHP> !help
[06:37] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[06:37] <wols_> neun: lspci output plase. us a pastebin
[06:37] <Danzor> Ok, I've written down what I do and the error messages etc when I boot up Ubuntu:
[06:37] <neun> wols nvidia 1.0.9755+2.6.20.5-15.20
[06:37] <Pelo> nmsd, moving up to 7.04 would probably not be a bad idea, a lot more hardware support in general
[06:37] <labanux> wols_ : defaults,errors=remount-ro <-- is this read only?
[06:38] <wols_> neun: you need to look for drivers at nvidia.com
[06:38] <DavidCraft> -.- I dont need a book II need a quick answer lol
[06:38] <wols_> labanux: nop
[06:38] <nmsd> Pelo, so there's nothing i can do with this? i wish to make my network up so i could upgrade using apt-get
[06:38] <wols_> labanux: and did I say anything about fstab? no I did not
[06:38] <DoubleHP> I got breezy univers+multivers; I cant grab mplayer/libdvdcss; may this be due to breezy ?
[06:38] <wols_> nmsd: do what I told you
[06:38] <Danzor> I select "Start or Install Ubuntu" from the main menu, then it does a bunch of loading. Everything loads OK (including GNOME display Manager) and then I see a command line briefly before it pops up with the error "Failed to start the X server (Graphical User Interface). It is likely that it is not set up correctly"
[06:39] <labanux> wols_ : so i need to change it to ro in fstab?
[06:39] <Danzor> It then asks me if I want to see the server output
[06:39] <Danzor> I say yes
[06:39] <Danzor> And the error message is: "No screens found"
[06:39] <nmsd> wols_, pardon please, what you told me to do?
[06:39] <wols_> labanux: no. you need to run a mount command that remounts it ro. man mount
[06:39] <Danzor> It then asks me if I want to see detailed output. I say yes again
[06:39] <Pelo> nmsd, you can'T upgrade direct to 7.04 from 5.10,  your easiest bet will be to download feisty and clean install   otherwise you'll have to upgrade to each of the intermidiary versions one by one
[06:39] <wols_> nmsd: to run lspci and paste the output in a pastebin. we need the chip of that dlink. not that it's from dlink.
[06:39] <neun> wols_http://pastebin.com/pastebin.php  Query failure: Can't open file: 'recent.MYI'. (errno: 145) lock tables recent write
[06:39] <Danzor> There's a message: "Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration"
[06:40] <wols_> DavidCraft: there is more to that. more error messages.
[06:40] <labanux> wols_ : can i boot my ubuntu with option read-only on its partition?
[06:40] <Danzor> After scrolling through what appears to be a load of configurations of different screen resolutions, I couldn't see my screens native resolution, which is 1280x800
[06:40] <Danzor> Since this is a widescreen Laptop
[06:40] <wols_> labanux: probably. but not sure
[06:40] <Esers> hey
[06:40] <wols_> but you can remount it when it has finished booting, that I know for sure
[06:40] <Esers> a question in install there are two options guided entire
[06:40] <Danzor> Anyone have any idea how to fix this problem with the X server?
[06:40] <Esers> it shows two selected
[06:40] <wols_> neun: pastebin.com is broken. use paste2.org or
[06:40] <wols_> !paste
[06:41] <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)
[06:41] <Esers> entire and my entire HDD and manual
[06:41] <nmsd> ok, i will do a clean install using feisty
[06:41] <Esers> where is the free space option???
[06:41] <nmsd> thank you
[06:41] <neun> wols_ Latest Version: 1.0-9755
[06:41] <wastedfluid> Esers: It should say Use the largest free space
[06:41] <wastedfluid> the person who did the install, PROBABLY didn't have unallocated space
[06:41] <wols_> neun: I already told you what you can do
[06:41] <nmsd> btw, does ubuntu support SATA hardisk?
[06:41] <wastedfluid> It has to have unallocated space to give you the prompt for "Use largest space"
[06:41] <Esers> http://news.softpedia.com/images/reviews/large/installfeistyfawn-large_010.png looks like this
[06:41] <wols_> neun: there is no package in ubuntu which will support your 3d accel on your card.
[06:41] <amattas> What channel do I have to go to communicate with the people who package glassfish?
[06:41] <wastedfluid> ok
[06:41] <labanux> wols_: so is there another way to make backup using mondoarchive.., as it can only backup the unmounted partition, meanwhile the mondoarchive program was located in mounted partition (the system partition)
[06:42] <wols_> neun: either you get a 101.xx or so (preferable higher) driver from nvidia.com, it will not work
[06:42] <RamblingAstronau> Hello all
[06:42] <nmsd> btw, does ubuntu support SATA hardisk?
[06:42] <wastedfluid> Esers: He doesn't have any unallocated space, that's why it's not showing it.
[06:42] <wols_> labanux: i told you
[06:42] <wols_> labanux: another way is to use a livecd to boot
[06:42] <wols_> nmsd: yes it does
[06:42] <RamblingAstronau> How do I unforce a package version?
[06:42] <Esers> sk
[06:42] <DoubleHP> how to get mplayer on breezy ?
[06:42] <Esers> got it
[06:42] <wols_> RamblingAstronau: unforce?
[06:42] <wastedfluid> Esers: Worse case worse, you click "Manual", you re-size your partitions to get unallocated space, and you GO BACK, and It'll tell you "Use largest unallocated soace"
[06:42] <wastedfluid> But you have to HAVE unallocated space before it gives you that option
[06:42] <labanux> wols_ : but live cd doesn't have mondoarchive program..
[06:43] <jair> Hello guys, there is a way I can reconfigure the resolution on my laptop?
[06:43] <RamblingAstronau> Yes, following the wiki on Beryl, I forced Beryl to v0.20 in synaptic
[06:43] <wastedfluid> Esers:  You're nuking this... lol.  Just make about 10gb unallocated, and try it out
[06:43] <jair> I am using an IBM r51 laptop running LTS Dapper
[06:43] <neun> wols_ http://www.paste2.org/p/3570
[06:44] <Pelo> RamblingAstronau, ppl in #beryl will probably be more help
[06:44] <jair> and I want to get a better resolution on this laptop
[06:44] <JuJuBee> Is setting up LDAP difficult?  I am thinking of switching from NIS.  I have a small netowrk (<20 users/machines).
[06:44] <RamblingAstronau> ok thanks I will try
[06:44] <wastedfluid> jair;  See System/Preferences/Screen Resolution.
[06:44] <rambo3> !fixres | jair
[06:44] <ubotu> jair: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[06:44] <jair> I am sure it can scale a better one than 1024x768
[06:44] <Pelo> jair,  you can add extra resolutions my manualy editing  xorg.conf  ,   gksu gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:45] <jair> Watermelon2: yes but I do not se the option more than 1024x768
[06:45] <wols_> neun: nice output and all but for the 3rd time now: use a very vrey new driver from nvidia.com or it won't work. and no matter how often oyu keep asking: this is your only option for 3D support and that's not guaranteed even
[06:45] <jair> Pelo: i was thinking on doing that though
[06:45] <Pelo> jair, stop thinking about it and get doing
[06:45] <wastedfluid> Pelo: Just the man I was looking for.  I can not get Ubuntu to boot with my swap activated for nothing.  Any ideas?  My /fswap/ is perfect. :-)  You still take VISA?
[06:45] <jair> Pelo: but was not sure how healty for the gui will that be.
[06:45] <neun> wols_, yes after reconsidering your request for the third time i finally stumbled upon this neat -BETA driver-page
[06:45] <jair> Pelo: haha
[06:46] <jair> Pelo: all right
[06:46] <Pelo> wastedfluid, ddiyou try using the uuid instead of the devtree to identify your swap in fstab ?
[06:46] <enry> nobody know why in audacious plugin there isn't statusicon.so??????
[06:46] <wastedfluid> Pelo:  Negative.
[06:47] <Danzor> Here is a paste of the description of my problem along with the error messages that I am given. I would appreciate it if anyone is able to help me: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23460/
[06:47] <wols_> wastedfluid: wastedfluid is your swap listed in fstab? and if so: paste that line
[06:47] <Pelo> !uuid | wastedfluid
[06:47] <ubotu> wastedfluid: To see a list of your devices/partitions and their corresponding UUID's, run this command in a !shell:  blkid  (see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LibAtaForAtaDisks for the rationale behind the transition to UUID)
[06:47] <wastedfluid> Ok.
[06:47] <wastedfluid> Hold on
[06:47] <wastedfluid> /dev/hda5       none            swap    sw              0       0
[06:48] <wols_> wastedfluid: /dev/hda5 exists and points to the right place?
[06:48] <DanBallance> can anyone help me get grub to boot my windows server 2003 partition? It is on the first partition of the first disk. here is the windows bit of my menu.lst:
[06:48] <jair> Pelo: I will try manually then :)
[06:48] <DanBallance> title		Windows Server 2003
[06:48] <DanBallance> rootnoverify		(hd0,0)
[06:48] <DanBallance> chainloader	+1
[06:48] <wastedfluid> wols_: /dev/hda5 is a partition that works; I made it with the LIVE CD.  If i type /sbin/mkswap /dev/hda5, it works.. it just never loads Ubutnu with it activated.
[06:48] <Pelo> wastedfluid, it is possible that your swap it activated but just not being used , what does the system monitor have to say about it ?
[06:49] <wastedfluid> Pelo: free shows 3 "0" across the board.
[06:49] <wastedfluid> After i /sbin/mkswap, the 0's go away.. :p
[06:49] <tbuss> is there a way to ad an IP header for received mail in evolution
[06:49] <wastedfluid> Swap:      1919728          0    1919728
[06:49] <wastedfluid> That's what it shows after you activate it; before, it's 0 0 0
[06:50] <NV> So earlier today we concluded that ubuntu (server?) sometimes makes old CD-drives to stop working after installation... is there someway to fix this?
[06:51] <sahil> how do i change the permissions for a folder in Ubuntu ?
[06:51] <Pelo> sahil, man chmod
[06:51] <Danzor> I've got a problem with the "X server" when booting the Live CD. Here's a detailed description of my problem: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23460/
[06:51] <sahil> i don't know what to do with that. I'm a complete noob
[06:51] <DanBallance> are their people out there dual booting ubuntu feisty with windoze server 2003?
[06:52] <b0wlman> open terminal shail
[06:52] <tbuss> in the terminal type man chmod
[06:52] <DanBallance> sahil, type it at terminal
[06:52] <Pelo> Danzor, nvidia or ATI video card , use the alternate install cd , it is text based, you can install the rigth vidoe drivers after the installation is complete
[06:52] <sahil> a menu opened up when i typed man chmod
[06:52] <Danzor> The alternate install CD?
[06:52] <Danzor> Ok thanks
[06:52] <tbuss> success
[06:53] <b0wlman> its the non live version
[06:53] <sahil> now?
[06:53] <nictuku> hi. could you please suggest programs what you *know* to work with v4l2 webcams? I tried several and only Ekiga would work
[06:53] <zork22> hello all
[06:53] <tbuss> sahil: read the menu, that is a man page about all the things you can do with chmod
[06:53] <Pelo> sahil, type man chmod in the terminal, it will give you the manual page for the chmod command
[06:53] <nick_> hi everyone
[06:53] <rmd_> ok.  im at the end of my rope here.  firefox keeps automatically starting when i log into my kde desktop.  i do not have it listed in any autostartup areas.  can someone please help me get this to stop?
[06:54] <Rio79> i need some help with mediawiki!  i installed mediawiki and got it running.  i updated the system and now it doesnt work.  how do i fix it!?!? REF: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-mediawiki-devel/2006-October/000580.html
[06:54] <DanBallance> sahil, or, 'sudo nautilus'
[06:54] <sahil> Pelo, yes, i am in that page
[06:54] <nick_> i have a belkin 3000uk usb wifi  and it shows up as wlan0 as well as wmaster0 in feisty fawwn......  i got a signal and stuf off the live cd but can't once i have it installed.   any ideas?!?
[06:54] <DanBallance> sahil, then use gui to right click and set permissions that way
[06:54] <Pelo> rmd_, the save session feature is a pain in the a......,    turn off anything you donT, want on startup ,  save this session and disable autosave
[06:54] <sahil> gui?
[06:55] <DanBallance> the graphical program that will launch
[06:55] <DanBallance> bit like windows explorer
[06:55] <rmd_> Pelo: under session manager?
[06:55] <NV> GUI = Graphical User Interface
[06:55] <Pelo> rmd_, probably I am not familiar with how kde is setup
[06:55] <tbuss> sahil: what do you need to change permissions for
[06:56] <zork22> I got some weird wifi problem, my laptop work fine on some network but on the one i am currently I got some network reset going on I'm using the ipw2200
[06:56] <Pelo> sahil,   the basic permission command is this,       sudo chmod 755 /pathj/     use the man page fo learn more optiosn if you need them
[06:56] <sahil> tbuss the folder in which PIDGIN is install so i can change the icons
[06:56] <Danzor> One other question: My hard drive is partitioned into 2 partitions. Will I be able to install Ubuntu as a secondary OS on the other partition without affecting the first. If not, how will the first partition be affected?
[06:56] <Danzor> Using the alternate CD that is
[06:56] <wols_> zork22: WEP/WPA on that network?
[06:56] <b0wlman> Yeh you can
[06:56] <zork22> WEP in both case
[06:57] <Pelo> Danzor,  yes, just read the instructions carefully
[06:57] <Danzor> Thank you.
[06:57] <yomama> just remove the 2nd partion and leave free space, all auomatic without touching any of your partions
[06:57] <tbuss> sahil: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Open_root
[06:57] <b0wlman> you can setup/edit partition's using the alternative cd
[06:57] <rmd_> i manually saved the session without anything running, told session manager to load the saved session at login and logged out/in
[06:57] <rmd_> and firefox still loaded
[06:58] <Pelo> rmd_, like i said , it's a pain in the a.......
[06:58] <Kalisto> how do i extract file from a .deb file? just extract not install
[06:58] <wols_> rmd_: grep -r firefox ~
[06:58] <wols_> Kalisto: dpkg -x
[06:58] <Pelo> rmd_, try searching for info on how to disable it altogether
[06:59] <NV> So, earlier today we concluded that ubuntu (server?) sometimes makes old CD-drives to stop working after installation... is there someway to fix this?
[06:59] <rmd_> Pelo: disable what?
[06:59] <wols_> NV: stop working how? does the kernel recognize the cd drive?
[06:59] <zork22> the only difference with the two network is the wifi router brand the working one is  a Dlink and the other one is a belkin
[06:59] <Pelo> rmd_,  the session restore, save session thingy
[07:00] <NV> wols_: It wont eject.
[07:00] <DanBallance> doe anyone know a grub entry that will boot windoze server 2003 successfully from the first partition on the first disk?
[07:00] <wols_> NV: any process still files on it open?
[07:00] <zork22> but what is really wierd is that the belkin netywork work fine with other computer and it use to work fine on my laptop nefore I change for ubuntu
[07:00] <NV> it's no cd in it and it isnt mounted
[07:00] <NV> wols_:
[07:00] <wols_> NV: then answer my first question
[07:00] <Pelo> DanBallance, pm ?
[07:01] <PauloMancha> hi, somebody can help-me?

[07:02] <rambo3> thats intel right ?
[07:02] <PauloMancha> the i810
[07:02] <PauloMancha> yes, it is intel
[07:02] <wols_> wrong driver. i915 is needed
[07:02] <codecaine> I have my ntfs hd auto mounting but it says its only readable by root whys that

[07:02] <magnetron> my GPG crashed, and after a reboot of the computer, the GPG database is still locked. GPG will not boot.  How can i force GPG to boot?

[07:03] <PauloMancha> how I intall the i915 video driver?
[07:03] <ziggy23> What is the Ubuntu equivalent of the Windows command ipconfig /release  ?
[07:03] <wols_> NV: it's not what I asked you
[07:03] <Predicon> wols_: is it possible to install 7.04 i386 on a x64 system?
[07:03] <b0wlman> Whats the file extension?
[07:03] <b0wlman> Paulo
[07:03] <wols_> ziggy23: what do you want to do?

[07:04] <hendrixski> ziggy23, ifconfig has a bunch of options... but you shouldn't need it
[07:04] <zork22> does any one knows wich is the parameter for debuging the ipw2200 ?
[07:04] <wols_> NV: by answering it. I did not ask about your fstab, did I?
[07:04] <NV> wols_: sins I seem to lack the knowledge to understand it properly.
[07:04] <zork22> debug doesnt work anymore
[07:04] <djdarkman> hy, is there a way to check and repair a fat32 filesystem? boot always goes verbose because of some minor errors in my fat filesystems
[07:04] <rambo3> zork22, modinfo ipw2200
[07:05] <zork22> rambo3: thx
[07:05] <wols_> NV: check dmesg or your kern.log if it's recognized
[07:05] <codecaine> thanks
[07:05] <PauloMancha> I have instaled xserver-xorg-video-intel
[07:05] <Predicon> ok well after i get to the boot menu of the live cd i select start or install, i get the loading please wait, for a split second then just black screens and sits idle
[07:05] <wols_> djdarkman: fsck
[07:05] <PauloMancha> this package have eh i915 intel driver?
[07:05] <ziggy23> wols:  my internet stopped working  -- I wanted to try to get it to reacquire an ip address for dhcp but I rebooted and it's fixed...I just wondered if I could have avoided rebooting.
[07:05] <djdarkman> wols_: but how what paramters should I give, etc.?
[07:05] <wols_> Predicon: you don't need to install it. if you install X, the driver will be installed. all xservre-xorg packages
[07:05] <Predicon> i removed the quiet splash from the perameters and it stopped after finding my sata dvd drive
[07:06] <wols_> PauloMancha: simply reconfigure your xserver and choose the right driver
[07:06] <DgrMouse> can someon suggest an easy ftp server to install??
[07:06] <rambo3> ziggy23, ifdown ifup
[07:06] <Predicon> i'm trying to do a fresh install
[07:06] <MAGI>  ;
[07:06] <PauloMancha> wols_ I do know
[07:06] <djdarkman> DgrMouse: sudo apt-get install proftpd
[07:06] <wols_> ziggy23: sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart
[07:06] <abhinay> Hi ALL
[07:06] <PauloMancha> wols_ How can I reconfigure the xorg?
[07:06] <MAGI> 
[07:06] <MAGI> 
[07:06] <wols_> PauloMancha: sudo dpkg-reconfigre xserver-xorg
[07:07] <DgrMouse> djdarkman: i have that one installed, but i cannot make haed or tail of the instructions to set it up
[07:07] <abhinay> why 'set as wallpaper' option doesn't work in gqview ?
[07:07] <wols_> djdarkman: man fsck
[07:07] <rambo3> !crazy_letters_land | MAGI
[07:07] <djdarkman> DgrMouse: it works by default, you don`t need no setting up
[07:07] <finalbeta> How can I take over a PC with VNC after it booted? So when it's at the login screen? Can I get buggy vino to do that?
[07:07] <rmd_> ok.  i cannot find anywhere how to get firefox to stop loading at startup
[07:07] <ziggy23> thanks I will go to the man pages
[07:08] <rambo3> rmd_, session
[07:08] <DgrMouse> djdarkman: but i want to point it to my public_html folder for uploading web pages
[07:08] <MAGI> ho it;
[07:08] <ryugaka> ok i'm having those crazy dns problems again
[07:08] <kbrosnan> finalbeta: no, you need to use a different vnc server
[07:08] <NV> wols_: if I do an eject I get an errormsg about the device...
[07:08] <ryugaka> !dns | ryugaka
[07:08] <NV> is that it?
[07:08] <drif> is there something seriously wrong with foo2zjs of ubuntu or why they urge to remove and reinstall it from their homepage?
[07:08] <rmd_> rambo3: it is set to load an empty session at all times, i have manually saved the session and told it to load that session at startup.  no matter what i do, firefox loads
[07:08] <kbrosnan> finalbeta: there are several sets of instructions at ubuntuforums.org
[07:08] <wols_> NV: do you think I'm psychic?
[07:09] <djdarkman> DgrMouse: then make a symlink to the public_html.... to your home folder or there are some advanced settings maybe
[07:09] <NV> no... but I think you can help me understanding what I am looking for.
[07:09] <finalbeta> kbrosnan: found many about nx..., but that one has many security problems. I'll search some more
[07:09] <ryugaka> my eth1 won't connect to the intrawebs
[07:09] <DgrMouse> djdarkman: thats where i get lost.. i'm a real noob at this
[07:09] <rambo3> rmd_, rc.local or nautilus cache ?
[07:09] <wols_> NV: either you tell us the error message or we can't help you. and please finally do what I asked you: is the kernel recognizing the CD drive? yes or no?
[07:09] <rmd_> rambo3: not in nautilus, i'm in kde...
[07:09] <wols_> ryugaka: a little better error description would be kinda nice...
[07:09] <djdarkman> DgrMouse: is a symlink good for you if it is in youre home folder?
[07:10] <rambo3> rmd_, /etc/rc.local ?
[07:10] <NV> I get this in dmesg: [92723.858762]  hda: irq timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy }
[07:10] <NV> [92723.858785]  ide: failed opcode was: unknown
[07:10] <djdarkman> DgrMouse: I can help you whith that
[07:10] <rambo3> rmd_, if its not that i don't know KDE
[07:10] <rmd_> rambo3: nothing in it except "exit 0"
[07:10] <DgrMouse> djdarkman: cool....
[07:10] <NV> and yes it is recognised
[07:11] <DgrMouse> let me just ssh into my machine
[07:11] <NV> I have a CD-rom drive there
[07:11] <Kitar|st> hey guys
[07:11] <Kitar|st> ubuntu rox!!
[07:11] <Kitar|st> :P
[07:11] <Kitar|st> :P
[07:11] <wols_> NV: timeout busy points to hardware problem imho
[07:12] <deCon> i'm having issues connecting to my mobile device for data transfer, can someone help?
[07:12] <vmstat> quit
[07:12] <wols_> NV: IF /dev/hda is truly your cdrom
[07:13] <NV> ok
[07:13] <ryugaka> yah it's hanging on DHCDISCOVER
[07:14] <ryugaka> DHCP
[07:14] <ryugaka> !DHCP > ryugaka
[07:14] <rambo3> wrong device , bad cable ?
[07:14] <ryugaka> no DHCPOFFERS received
[07:15] <ryugaka> i'm using ubuntu 6.10 in vmware
[07:15] <MISTERTibbs> join /#ubuntu-pnw
[07:15] <b0wlman> Brb need a restart
[07:15] <wols_> ryugaka: vmware serviecs are not on
[07:16] <ryugaka> ?
[07:16] <DgrMouse> there aint nothing wrong with vmware
[07:17] <elYase> how to do a nested X server?
[07:17] <wols_> ryugaka: you run it in vmware under windows?
[07:17] <spikeb> aside from the whole proprietary bit.
[07:17] <bknitram> elYase, Xnest?
[07:17] <Colossus> I'm having some issues with Ubuntu on my old Dell laptop. The install went fine, but now that it's booted on its own, the screen is distorted. It looks like someone took it, cut it up, and put it together with pieces in the wrong places.
[07:17] <elYase> bknitram, it works in ubuntu?
[07:18] <bknitram> elYase, It should
[07:18] <DgrMouse> wols_: I have vmware running on dapper, with a 2k3 server and another dapper in virtual machines
[07:18] <bknitram> Colossus, video card?
[07:18] <Colossus> bknitram: what about the video card?
[07:18] <elYase> bknitram, i dont have it installed, nor in repos
[07:18] <wols_> DgrMouse: I wasn't talking to you
[07:18] <sainzeo> @Colossus: which video card do you have?
[07:19] <ryugaka> wols_ yes i run it under windows.
[07:19] <ryugaka> windows xp sp2 with ubuntu 6.10 running in vmware
[07:19] <wols_> ryugaka: so are the services for vmware started?
[07:19] <bknitram> elYase, sudo apt-get install xnest
[07:19] <Colossus> sainzeo: ATI Rage 128, I think. LSPCI says "ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility M3 AGP 2x".
[07:19] <ryugaka> yah
[07:19] <ryugaka> ethernet, sound
[07:19] <bknitram> Colossus, name of it?
[07:19] <bknitram> oh
[07:19] <wols_> Colossus: try "ati" driver. possibly rage128 one
[07:19] <ryugaka> it just keeps saying DHCPDISCOVER on eth1 to 255.255.255.255
[07:19] <Colossus> wols_: where? in xorg.conf, or as a module to load?
[07:20] <wols_> Colossus: if all else fails: vesa
[07:20] <Colossus> wols_: I seem to recall this happening before on a similar laptop and needing vesa.
[07:20] <biberao> hii
[07:20] <wols_> Colossus: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[07:20] <elYase> bknitram, thanks
[07:20] <wols_> I doubt it needs vesa
[07:20] <ryugaka> the funny part is, this all worked yesterday.
[07:21] <ryugaka> i was online yesterday, using apt-get everything
[07:21] <ryugaka> and then today nothing
[07:21] <wols_> ryugaka: one last time. did you check vmware services? yes or no?
[07:21] <ryugaka> yes
[07:21] <ryugaka> i said that before.
[07:21] <ryugaka> ethernet is connected, sound is on, cd-rom is on
[07:21] <atrus> networkmanager/nm-applet keeps failing to bring up my network. if i configure it manually with iwconfig and dhclient it works fine, but nm-applet just keeps sitting there "attempting to connect". running feisty, suggestions appreciated
[07:21] <wols_> tho, your problem is not a ubuntu one but a a vmware one
[07:21] <eshaase> i'm trying to determine whether this video card i want to buy is compatible with linux, can anyone recommend a good source?
[07:22] <ryugaka> well let me check the config file.
[07:22] <wols_> it's not what I asked what is connected. I asked about windows services of vmware are running
[07:22] <wols_> eshaase: tell us the card you want
[07:22] <eshaase> wols_: nvidia geforcce 7600 gs
[07:22] <wols_> and no it's not in the config files either. it's windows service
[07:22] <wols_> eshaase: it is
[07:23] <wols_> eshaase: for 3D support you need proprietary nvidia drivers (they are in ubuntu)
[07:23] <hendrixski> wols_, you were right, I'm not noticing much of a difference with the soft linking... and it's easier than specifying a different location every time I call pbuilder
[07:23] <hendrixski> thanks
[07:23] <eshaase> wols_: works pretty well?

[07:32] <ubotu> Tobster: 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

[07:36] <wols_> either you state your problem properly or we can't help you
[07:36] <Colossus> Huh. I tried ati as a driver for X, and it keeps with the weird choppy screen ... when I try vesa, it doesn't work at all.

[07:37] <christick> Hey, Ive got problems with getting my proftpd server to upload my apache server. Anyone know how to config it ?
[07:37] <wols_> wand what kind of terminal? an xterm?
[07:37] <wols_> christick: to what directory do you want to upload?
[07:38] <Chetwin> !ati
[07:38] <ubotu> To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:38] <christick> var/www. the same directory my apache server runs in
[07:38] <unda> in my home account folder
[07:39] <Solet>  anyone know why a fresh install would get to "Uncompressing Linux..." then reboot back to POST?
[07:39] <wols_> bad kernel
[07:39] <ikonia> Solet: bad install
[07:39] <wols_> christick: cd /var/www when in a ftp client
[07:40] <wols_> christick: you might have to ajdust permissions
[07:40] <Solet> how can it be a bad install... came straight off the cd
[07:40] <Colossus> Yeah, this is decidedly frustrating.
[07:40] <ikonia> Solet: it can happen, corruption on the install or the cdrom
[07:40] <ryugaka> i think i'm going to uninstall vmware player and get workstation
[07:40] <Solet> so, just try the install again and hope for better luck?
[07:41] <Colossus> I copied the xorg.conf I had been using before this install, and it does the same thing with the choppy screen. Vesa doesn't start at all, Ati does choppy screen, and there doesn't seem to be a r128 driver installed for X.
[07:41] <ikonia> Solet: or run the cd check
[07:41] <unda> crap ill need 2 log in into ubuntu-es >.> n pray 4 the guy that helped me is there
[07:41] <codecaine> whats the differnce from mtab and fstab?
[07:41] <maxim> bye
[07:41] <JTARGA-BR> Hei Brothers!!!! My Intel 945GM don't work with 3d accell on!
[07:41] <christick> wols_: but how do you set it so the default upload directory is the same as the apache one ?
[07:41] <ikonia> JTARGA-BR: does it support it ?
[07:42] <wols_> proftpd config file I guess
[07:42] <JTARGA-BR> ikonia I don't now, support????
[07:42] <Solet> code: iirc, mtab is just what's mounted, fstab is all filesystems detected (or that have been used before, or that auto mount... cant remember)
[07:42] <ikonia> JTARGA-BR: check if it supports 3d acceleration before complaining it doesn't work
[07:42] <Colossus> Solet: fstab is the auto-mount ones.
[07:43] <Colossus> Solet: or rules for mounting the regularly mounted ones.

[07:43] <crdlb> JTARGA-BR, what are you doing to enabled 3d?
[07:43] <Therock_> !codec
[07:43] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[07:43] <wick2o> could someone help me out with an event.d script?  im tring to add S0:2345:respawn:/sbin/mgetty ttys0
[07:43] <Solet> Colossus: i was close, i'm happy with close :P (i'm not as strong as i'd like to be with linux)
[07:43] <Bnirkow> ikonia: what?
[07:43] <crdlb> Bnirkow, use the restricted drivers manager
[07:43] <ikonia> Bnirkow: you can't downgrade xorg
[07:44] <crdlb> Bnirkow, what ati card do you have?
[07:44] <Bnirkow> x700 pro
[07:44] <crdlb> Bnirkow, you're installing them for games?
[07:44] <Bnirkow> driver from site are only to x 7.1
[07:44] <Bnirkow> no, beryl :)
[07:44] <wols_> Bnirkow: you cannot downgrade
[07:45] <crdlb> Bnirkow, then use the builtin driver
[07:45] <wols_> Bnirkow: and what videocard EXACTLY do you have?
[07:45] <crdlb> it's slower, but it works far better for beryl
[07:45] <wols_> Bnirkow: use the "ati" driver then. it will work
[07:45] <wols_> tho, it will probably not work with beryl. the fglrx one certainly does not work with beryl
[07:46] <crdlb> wols_, ?
[07:46] <Bnirkow> wols_: i can`t install ati drivers with xorg 7.2
[07:46] <crdlb> Bnirkow, glxinfo|grep direct
[07:46] <wols_> Bnirkow: there is a driver in ubuntu that is named "ati". that is the right driver for you. NOT fgrlx from ati.com
[07:46] <Colossus> wols_: the "ati" driver isn't working for me, either.
[07:46] <JTARGA-BR> crdlb I only follow net manual
[07:46] <wols_> Colossus: what card?
[07:46] <crdlb> JTARGA-BR, link?
[07:46] <Colossus> wols_: ATI Rage 128.
[07:47] <wols_> Colossus: rage128 driver then
[07:47] <crdlb> Colossus, no driver will work for that
[07:47] <JTARGA-BR> crdlb yes, but not work
[07:47] <Colossus> wols_: vesa isn't working -at all-. ati gives the choppy display.
[07:47] <crdlb> JTARGA-BR, give me the link
[07:47] <wols_> Colossus: vesa not working is pretty much unpossible
[07:47] <MonsieurBon> hello
[07:47] <crdlb> !vesa
[07:47] <MonsieurBon> anyone knows freeNX?
[07:47] <ubotu> vesa is the default video driver if X can't find a better one. Also see !x
[07:47] <Bnirkow> wols_: i`m not on ubuntu now
[07:47] <Colossus> crdlb: But that can't be right -- I've used Linux on it before. It was working earlier today.
[07:47] <wols_> !anyone | MonsieurBon
[07:47] <ubotu> MonsieurBon: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[07:47] <wols_> Bnirkow: then you are in the wrong channel
[07:48] <crdlb> Colossus, well ati loads r128
[07:48] <iqon> how do i specify x11 for kino's video output? (i'm not getting any video in know when using beryl)
[07:48] <crdlb> but cards older than the radeon aren't supported well for 3d
[07:48] <crdlb> but 2d should work
[07:48] <JTARGA-BR> crdlb moment
[07:48] <Colossus> crdlb: i'm not trying for 3d. I'm trying for a workable 2d environment.
[07:48] <Bnirkow> wols_: yes i`m, collecting inforamtion
[07:48] <AD7six> Hi, how can I change my $PATH?
[07:49] <ikonia> PATH=$what_ever_you_want
[07:49] <phanto1> wols_: Hi did you sugest me ntfs 3g and said that I should mount ntfs with it ? I gotten to a state that when I access it I get the message  "Cannot mount volume.   You are not privileged to mount the volume 'File'. " and properties > permissions > owner went from root to unknown .
[07:49] <MonsieurBon> I try to connect to the freeNX server on my PC. I reach my PC, but the connection is close. The Error says: Wrong version or invalid session authentication cookie. Anyone knows what I have to do?
[07:49] <wols_> phanto1: you are not root probably
[07:49] <ikonia> MonsieurBon: freenx is not ubuntu
[07:49] <crdlb> Bnirkow, well if you are going to install the fglrx driver (I don't recommend it) use system>administration>restricted drivers manager
[07:49] <wols_> phanto1: paste your mount line
[07:49] <AD7six> ikonia: to change my $PATH permanently?
[07:49] <ikonia> AD7six: change it in your shell startup profile
[07:49] <sundu> hi, new to linux - i have insatlled edubuntu for my kids - would like to know know what anti-virus program is recommended
[07:49] <Bnirkow> crdlb: thanks for advice
[07:50] <wols_> crdlb: he cannot install it since it will never ever work again with his card
[07:50] <crdlb> wols_, ?
[07:50] <duvnell> is there a way to list the services from the command line (much like chkconfig  --list  on other distroes)?
[07:50] <savetheWorld> sundu: in general none is needed.  there is one called clam-av
[07:50] <wols_> crdlb: ati dropped support for radeon9250 and older with X 7.2 and later
[07:50] <MonsieurBon> ikonia, I know it's not in the official repos. I thought someone might still be able to help me
[07:50] <crdlb> wols_, he has an x700
[07:50] <wols_> however there is only 7.2 in ubuntu. but that doesn't matter since the driver named "ati" works just fine and is open source
[07:50] <Bnirkow> aiglx left for me
[07:50] <ikonia> MonsieurBon: you thought wrong - its nothing to do with ubuntu
[07:50] <kyelik> the ubuntu amd64 live cd does not show my nvidia card in the restricted drivers manager window, it's an nvidia quadro nvs 110 on a dell latitude d820 with an intel core 2 duo cpu. any ideas?
[07:51] <wols_> then fglrx will work and he doesn't need to downgrade to xorg 7.1
[07:51] <AD7six> ikonia /anyone which file is it to change your $PATH permenently, I'm (obviously) not familiar with how these things are setup. Tried editing .profile didnt change anything even after a reboot.
[07:51] <sundu> save theworld - thanx coming from windows environment - makes me creepy!!!
[07:51] <ikonia> .bash_profile
[07:51] <wols_> Bnirkow: and aiglx will not support fglrx. you need Xgl which is not in ubuntu
[07:51] <sp3tt> I'm trying to boot. Fsck runs and ends with this line: "/var: clean .../... files, .../... blocks [OK] ". Then nothing.
[07:51] <crdlb> it's in the repos though
[07:51] <sp3tt> Nothing at all, just two blank lines.
[07:51] <Bnirkow> wols_: i know that, but i can install it
[07:51] <MonsieurBon> ikonia, how do you know there's no one in here who has used freeNX?
[07:52] <Colossus> wols_: it doesn't seem to be able to find a "rage128" driver.
[07:52] <crdlb> Bnirkow, if you install fglrx, use https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompositeManager/BerylOnXgl
[07:52] <nickrud> wols_, yes it is: xserver-xgl , but it's buggy. I gave up
[07:52] <ikonia> MonsieurBon: this is not the place to get support - this is for ubuntu support. Freenx is nothing to do with ubuntu
[07:52] <crdlb> for beryl
[07:52] <dfgas> k i am dual booting, but how do i make hdb hda so i can get rid of the windows harddrive
[07:52] <crdlb> Colossus, it's r128
[07:52] <shwag> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NetworkGames
[07:52] <crdlb> but ati loads it
[07:52] <MonsieurBon> ikonia, okok
[07:52] <Colossus> crdlb: Ah. Okay. Which just leaves me with the same problem as before: the screen looks all funky.
[07:52] <rambo3> crdlb, same thing
[07:52] <ikonia> crdlb: someone could do with updating the wiki with a more accurate description on ati supported cards/products/versions
[07:53] <ikonia> crdlb: you seem to be confident with it, fancy it ?
[07:53] <l_r> hello
[07:53] <AD7six> ikonia: ty
[07:53] <l_r> is there anyone using ubuntu 64bit?
[07:53] <crdlb> ikonia, sounds like fun
[07:53] <ikonia> l_r:
[07:53] <ikonia> l_r:  es
[07:53] <Bnirkow> easyer will be buy nvidia card ;)
[07:53] <ikonia> crdlb: its a common question and its nice to see someone ontop of the versions
[07:53] <l_r> ikonia, is it working? dekstop, apps, etc..?
[07:54] <ikonia> l_r: its worked for a long time, but not with anything 32bit
[07:54] <myo> hi all, have a question if you can help.  I am trying to install NVU per the dirs here: http://www.ubuntux.org/how-to-install-nvu-the-web-authoring-system
[07:54] <sundu> how do i go to ommand"line interface in edubuntu - a newbie here
[07:54] <biberao> any software
[07:54] <ikonia> myo: use the official docs, not 3rd party
[07:54] <biberao> php editor?
[07:54] <myo> but keep getting apt-get can't find the package
[07:54] <ikonia> sundu: open a terminal
[07:54] <ashtar> hello, whenever I start ubuntu it gives me an error saying that the filesystem check failed, press Ctrl + D to continue....how can I fix that
[07:55] <myo> biberao: yeah and HTML
[07:55] <bknitram> sundu, Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal
[07:55] <tonyyarusso> !nvu | myo (you should also be able to use the edgy package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/ in the meantime)
[07:55] <ubotu> myo (you should also be able to use the edgy package from http://packages.ubuntu.com/ in the meantime): nvu is a WYSIWYG and code dual-function HTML editor for easily creating web pages.  The original developer is working on a full rewrite; meanwhile, another is doing bugfixes.  It is not in the Ubuntu repos for Feisty Fawn, but add your name to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/WaitingForNvuFeisty to be notified when packages are available.  See also !html.
[07:55] <Colossus> So, basically, the feeling I'm getting is that, as far as the display, I'm screwed?
[07:55] <nickrud> myo, kompozer is the replacement for nvu, but it's not in ubuntu either ;) there's an easily installed version on the web, search for it
[07:55] <sundu> thanx got it
[07:55] <myo> tonyyarusso, is there a way to do that through apt-get?
[07:55] <Colossus> 'cause that would have been nice to know before I installed Ubuntu.
[07:55] <myo> sorry newbie here
[07:55] <yagami> Hello all, i am trying really hard to get twinview (or the equivalent) to work with an ati radeon 9200se card i just installed.
[07:55] <tonyyarusso> myo: Getting the Edgy package?  Yes, but it's not worth the trouble ;)
[07:55] <kyelik> ikonia, would u happen to know why the feisty amd64 live cd would not recognize my nvidia card? it is the only think keeping me from installing ubuntu...
[07:55] <ikonia> yagami: you will really need to use xinerama
[07:55] <myo> I downloaded the version from nvu but there is no install dirs for it
[07:55] <yagami> but it isnt working- right now, i am following a guide on the forums.
[07:56] <crdlb> yagami, you want something called mergedfb
[07:56] <ikonia> kyelik: not without any more information. But probably because your nvidia card needs the 3rd party drivers to work
[07:56] <magnetron> Colossus: how can we help you?
[07:56] <crdlb> it's the open source driver equivalent of twinview
[07:56] <tonyyarusso> myo: what architecture is your computer?
[07:56] <yagami> ikonia, crdlb : did enable that option in xorg.conf - didnt work..err.. wait. mergedfb's a package?
[07:57] <elYase> bknitram, how do i do for my applications to fill the entire nested screen
[07:57] <crdlb> yagami, no
[07:57] <biberao> if anyone answered i didnt see
[07:57] <biberao> lol
[07:57] <biberao> i need to have highlight
[07:57] <crdlb> but you set it up differently than xinerama
[07:57] <myo> Dell Inspiron b130 running feisty
[07:57] <bknitram> elYase, ?
[07:57] <yagami> ok, lemme post the xorg.conf file i've been tinkering with
[07:57] <dogmeat> why doesn't sudo work? im using the correct password, sudo -v said "Sorry, user jay may not run sudo on slicer."
[07:57] <biberao> could anyone say my nick?
[07:57] <tonyyarusso> myo: Is it 32-bit PC then?  Use http://gulus.usherbrooke.ca/pub/distro/ubuntu/pool/universe/n/nvu/nvu_1.0final-2ubuntu2_i386.deb
[07:57] <kyelik> ikonia, the 32bit live cd finds it, and i have an intel core 2 duo cpu, and an nvidia quadro nvs 110 card on a dell latitude d820
[07:58] <ikonia> kyelik: 32bit is different
[07:58] <elYase> bknitram, dont know?
[07:58] <myo> yes 32.bit
[07:58] <Colossus> Wait, I think I got it working.
[07:58] <Colossus> Woo!
[07:58] <Colossus> Vesa works. Okay.
[07:59] <myo> tonyyarusso: bear with me but use it for?
[07:59] <kyelik> ikonia, so there is no chance a 64 bit live cd could see it?
[07:59] <yagami> crdlb, ikonia : would appreciate if you can take a look and see whats wrong. http://rafb.net/p/h31Pdk51.html
[07:59] <ikonia> kyelik: thats not what I said. The live cd is just for install really.
[07:59] <tonyyarusso> myo: To install - just download that to your desktop and double-click.
[07:59] <ikonia> kyelik: once you install the nvidia drivers post install it may well work
[07:59] <myo> doing that now
[07:59] <LordTureis> wait.  I thought feisty had bulletproof x?  Shouldn't it have automatically switched to vesa in colossus's case?
[07:59] <phanto1> wols_:  Here is my /etc/fstab http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23481/plain/    Here is my  command   sudo mkdir -p /media/<mount point>
[08:00] <l_r> kyelik, why did you choose an nvidia video card? intel is supported by free drivers which work with 64bit oss
[08:00] <helpdaemon> LordTureis, eh eh bulletproof =)
[08:00] <Colossus> LordTureis: Nothing is bulletproof against a Latitude C600.
[08:00] <ikonia> l_r: don't be silly - nvidia is supportee
[08:00] <yagami> and this here's the guide i am trying to follow: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=1773710

[08:01] <deCon> how do i mount a USB drive that isn't auto detected, but lists in lsusb
[08:01] <Seba> the installation freezes in 15%, why? i run the memtest, and all is fine, same in the cdtest
[08:01] <ikonia> yes there is
[08:02] <kyelik> well, seems weird that a 32bit live cd sees that card and that a 64bit live cd does not
[08:02] <helpdaemon> Seba, cdrom br0ken?

[08:04] <DigitalNinja> ikonia: I'm trying to play video in second life. Doing some searching on the subject it seams that quick time is needed for video.
[08:04] <DigitalNinja> ikonia: I am unable to play any video
[08:05] <yagami> if you're talking about the refresh rates i know what it is for the CRT- but havent got a clue how to find it for the TV/
[08:05] <DigitalNinja> ikonia: In second life
[08:05] <ikonia> so install the quicktime codec
[08:05] <DigitalNinja> ikonia: let me check
[08:05] <Seba> helpdaemon: the cd is fine, still when the installation comes to 15% ..that stop (same on the cd, the lector or reader :D)
[08:05] <yagami> besides, is it necessary to specify h/v-sync rates in xorg file when trying to configure twinview?
[08:05] <crdlb> yagami, what card is this again?
[08:05] <yagami> ati radeon 9200se.
[08:06] <yagami> got the tv connected via dvi and the other over crt port
[08:06] <crdlb> ok so you're not using tv out
[08:06] <crdlb> b/c the free driver usually doesn't support tv out
[08:07] <yagami> crdlb,  but the flgrx does?
[08:07] <crdlb> yagami, fglrx doesn't support your card anymore
[08:07] <myo> tonyyarusso: thanks, that worked
[08:07] <crdlb> you'd need 8.28.8 or older
[08:09] <eX|Hoser> hey guys, im having a hard time installing hplip
[08:10] <dinochopins> hi all
[08:10] <Fr33sc4p3Guest> any1 online
[08:10] <eX|Hoser> it says "note: installation of dependencies require an active internet connection" and i know my internet works cause im talking to you.
[08:10] <dinochopins> where is dpkg-scanpackages package ?
[08:10] <Fr33sc4p3Guest> guys
[08:10] <Fr33sc4p3Guest> how do i port foward
[08:10] <dinochopins> I search from synaptic and it returns nothing :(
[08:10] <Fr33sc4p3Guest> need help portfoward
[08:10] <yagami> crdlb,  wait wait....i think i  described the setup incorrectly- i've got the tv connected via s-video out- does that make any difference?
[08:10] <tatters> small problem.but how do I set kmenu to scroll through program list rather than expand? I cannot seem to find the option anywhere...........

[08:11] <Tiradin> Does anyone know how to set the order of songs in Amarok, so that it's by artist primarily and then by song?
[08:11] <crdlb> yagami, yes
[08:11] <Tiradin> so <song a> <Artist>
[08:11] <Tiradin>     <song B> <Artist>
[08:11] <Tiradin> etc.
[08:11] <crdlb> that's not supported afaik :(
[08:11] <crdlb> unless you get an old version of fglrx working somehow
[08:12] <nickrud> dinochopins, it's in dpkg-dev
[08:12] <Tiradin> anyone?
[08:12] <yagami> darn it- and here i was, hoping to make the most of my upgrade from the older nvidia card. :( well, i could try and see- if its available in the repo perhaps it'll work, eh? thanks anyway, i'll stop the struggle for now though
[08:13] <dinochopins> nickrud, great... thank you man :)
[08:13] <tcblack> Greetings:I have been searching the FAQ's etc but can't solve.  Live cd works great, install went smooth.  loging into the Gnome desktop simply results in a plain screen - no toolbars or anything (just the ubuntu default background)
[08:13] <toast> does it work?
[08:13] <dudubs> what the perfect python editor for run-auto?
[08:13] <nickrud> dinochopins, sometimes if you type the command you want into a terminal, it'll tell you the package it's in
[08:13] <nickrud> dinochopins, another way is to search for it on packages.ubuntu.com
[08:14] <FKi> Basic Networking Question: Getting file from Computer A to Computer B:  Computer A is using Windows XP, and Computer B is using ubuntu. Any suggestions
[08:14] <rdesh>  if i have directory structure of /Dir1 and /Dir2, and /X/Dir1 and /X/Dir2, how can i move the folders /X/* down to root and have the files replace the dest files if they already exist? nautilus does this with drag and drop but 'mv' gives me errors
[08:14] <toast> yay... fucking irc is pretty sweet once you get the hang of it.
[08:14] <dinochopins> nickrud, how do i do that ?
[08:14] <jrib> rdesh: what errors does mv give you?
[08:14] <nickrud> dinochopins, which?

[08:14] <toast> oh

[08:15] <finalbeta> Can someone help me put up a vnc server that starts when the logon screen starts? Searched the forums, found vague info on vnc4server. But it can't connect to it.
[08:15] <toast> didn't know it worked on other servers
[08:15] <toast> Sorry about that...
[08:15] <dogmeat> why is my sudo busted?!
[08:15] <toast>  the /amsg
[08:15] <FKi> How do you browse the network on ubuntu
[08:15] <magnetron> dogmeat: busted? please specify
[08:15] <dinochopins> nickrud, just look at it.. you're rite, great place. Thanks, you save my day ^_^
[08:15] <nickrud> dinochopins, simply type it at the command line in the terminal: if you haven't installed dpkg-dev yet, try typing dpkg-scanpackages there

[08:15] <Scunizi> finalbeta, so you want to be able to log in remotely with gui?
[08:15] <magnetron> FKi: in the "places" menu, there is an option called netwrok
[08:16] <tatters> I get the same problem with linux and windows, if right click or hover over a item which has a sub menu it fails to dissapear when my cursor leaves focus, it only when I click elsewhere or select an option will it retreat, anyone find this a problem?
[08:16] <dogmeat> jay@slicer:~$ sudo su
[08:16] <dinochopins> nickrud, I see..
[08:16] <dogmeat> jay@slicer:~$
[08:16] <finalbeta> Scunizi: yes, I make a VPN connection to my router from work. Start my PC through wake on lan. And then I need to be able to take it over.
[08:16] <unda> omg
[08:16] <unda> i got a huge crush on the maker of envy
[08:17] <unda> i love him >.<
[08:17] <unda> he solved my problem inmediatly
[08:17] <Scunizi> finalbeta, I have a headless server at home I connect to with gui using ssh -X server@xxx.xxx.xx.x.   Is the computer at work linux based?
[08:17] <ryugaka> wtf
[08:17] <ryugaka> timestamp set too far in the future?
[08:18] <ryugaka> but it's set to todays date?
[08:18] <finalbeta> Scunizi: no it's not, I really need to take over the whole desktop, not forward apps.
[08:18] <habeeb> ryanakca, when you are trying to install something with APT/
[08:18] <ryugaka> yah
[08:18] <ryugaka> or when i try to edit the sources list.
[08:18] <ryugaka> it says timestamp set too far in the future
[08:19] <habeeb> Try sudo -K
[08:19] <ryugaka> is there a way to fix that?
[08:19] <Scunizi> finalbeta, I'm not sure how to get vncserver to load correctly and forward a gui that hasn't really started yet.  How 'bout ssh into the box using the previously mentioned method so the gui starts then VNC into it just after?  I haven't tried that but it'd be a good experiment.
[08:19] <tatters>  I get the same problem with linux and windows, if right click or hover over a item which has a sub menu it fails to dissapear when my cursor leaves focus, it only when I click elsewhere or select an option will it retreat, anyone find this a problem? for example I just selected Kmenu hovered over the utilities section and the sub menu expanded and filled practically my whole screen making it close without selecting anything involes some cursor kung fu
[08:19] <habeeb> yes ryanakca
[08:20] <habeeb> ryanakca, try this post: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1731700&postcount=7

[08:20] <habeeb> or even better, this one: http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=1145634&postcount=10 , ryugaka
[08:20] <finalbeta> Ehm, sry, Scunizi I sshed and started gdm under my current user, but that didn't work.
[08:21] <habeeb> ryugaka, oh sorry I was mispelling your name all this time xD
[08:21] <Stevethepirate> Hey ppl.. My dcpp (dc plus plus) starts up.. but after 10 seconds.. it crashes.. i ran it in konsole.. this is the crash message "terminate called after throwing an instance of 'char const*'"...
[08:21] <Stevethepirate> i googled it to no avail
[08:21] <Scunizi> finalbeta, brb
[08:21] <neverblue> should there be a lock in my ~/.mozilla/firefox/user dir? even when FF is not started?
[08:21] <finalbeta> Scunizi: And after installing vnc4server, It seems X11 forwarding is broken as a whole now. Starting apps trough ssh forwarding now gives an error that the xserver is not running.
[08:21] <tcblack> Hi all.  I just installed Ubuntu and when I login the desktop doesn't finish loading just kind of hangs before I even get the splash screen telling me that gnome is loading.
[08:22] <neverblue> tcblack, maybe reinstall?
[08:22] <ikonia> neverblue: thats terrible debugging
[08:22] <neverblue> ikonia, it will work :)
[08:22] <ikonia> tcblack: ignore that advice
[08:22] <neverblue> less typing for me :)
[08:22] <ikonia> neverblue: how do you know ?
[08:22] <tcblack> neverblue I was getting ready to try a reinstall but wanted to see if a quick script fix would work
[08:22] <ikonia> he may have an issue
[08:23] <tcblack> ikonia any ideas?
[08:23] <ikonia> tcblack: does this happen every time on reboot ?
[08:23] <neverblue> tcblack, can you press ctl-alt-f1 and get a shell?
[08:23] <tcblack> all but once.
[08:23] <ikonia> tcblack: ok - so its intermittant
[08:23] <tcblack> neverblue yes I can get a shell
[08:23] <Stevethepirate> Anyone?
[08:23] <neverblue> then type sudo ps -A
[08:23] <tcblack> ikonia well 15 reboots (feels like windows) and only one worked
[08:23] <tcblack> but locked up soon after
[08:23] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: whats ddc-plus ?
[08:24] <ikonia> tcblack: ok, thats a reasonable statment
[08:24] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: its a client for the "direct connect" protocol
[08:24] <ikonia> tcblack: have you done the obvious things like ran a memcheck for a few hours
[08:24] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: is it in the ubuntu repo's
[08:24] <ph8> hmm
[08:24] <ph8> where do i get wine from?
[08:24] <ikonia> !wine >ph8
[08:24] <ph8> my standard feisty install can't find it for apt-get
[08:24] <ph8> cheers
[08:24] <bruenig> ph8, sudo apt-get install wine
[08:24] <ph8> tried it
[08:24] <tcblack> ikonia yes,  the memory is good.  I think a gnome file is corrupt (load script etc?)
[08:24] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: no.
[08:24] <bruenig> ph8, what does it say
[08:25] <ikonia> tcblack: can't be as it has worked - scripts don't corrupt then uncorrupt then corrupt again
[08:25] <t94xr> how do i make a symbolic link from /home/t94xr/ntfs-device to /media/disk
[08:25] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: then you'll be better getting support from the people who made it
[08:25] <tcblack> ikonia - then it almost requires a memory (or hard disk) issue?
[08:25] <bruenig> t94xr, sudo ln -s /home/t94xr/ntfs-device /media/disk
[08:25] <a1Pha> ln -s /home/t94xr/ntfs-device /media/disk @ t94xr
[08:25] <t94xr> ah
[08:25] <ikonia> tcblack: did you say you had run memcheck for a few hours ?
[08:25] <t94xr> thanks
[08:25] <a1Pha> np
[08:25] <neverblue> so i guess I am not helping anymore :(
[08:25] <t94xr> its the -s i was missing
[08:26] <a1Pha> ^^
[08:26] <ph8> hmm
[08:26] <Hard|Rock> :-D
[08:26] <a1Pha> t94xr, much easier with "mc"
[08:26] <tcblack> ikonia under an hour;  perhaps not long enough?
[08:26] <ph8> bruenig: it says wine has no installation candidate
[08:26] <ikonia> tcblack: thats not even 1 pass
[08:26] <ph8> but i have universe/multiverse added. i think
[08:26] <ikonia> let it run for at least 3 passes
[08:26] <bruenig> !info wine
[08:26] <ubotu> wine: Microsoft Windows Compatibility Layer (Binary Emulator and Library). In component universe, is optional. Version 0.9.33-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 9576 kB, installed size 44452 kB

[08:26] <ph8> gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty universe
[08:26] <ph8> deb and deb-src
[08:26] <ph8> is that not right?
[08:27] <ph8> i'm amd64 if that makes a difference?
[08:27] <ikonia> !wine >ph8
[08:27] <bruenig> ph8, it does
[08:27] <ikonia> ph8 it does make a difference
[08:27] <ryugaka> wow turns out workstation is better than vmplayer
[08:27] <ph8> i've just had that ikonia, it's useless
[08:27] <tcblack> ikonia i'm going to run memcheck now.  I'll be back when i'm done :-)  Any other pointers before I go?
[08:27] <a1Pha> ph8, do you have "http://" in front of it?
[08:27] <ikonia> pj8 no its not
[08:27] <ph8> yes
[08:27] <ph8> sorry, it's useless in this context
[08:27] <ph8> oh no
[08:27] <ph8> it's not
[08:27] <ikonia> tcblack: make sure its run through at least 3 full passes
[08:27] <ph8> i'm a cock
[08:27] <ph8> :)
[08:27] <ikonia> ph8: I know
[08:27] <a1Pha> :D
[08:27] <tcblack> ikonia i'll do exactly that.
[08:27] <bruenig> ph8, they need to put some pop up in the 64 bit version that tells them "hey a bunch of stuff doesn't work on here, don't go into irc and asking or at the very least preface everything with I am using amd64 for some ridiculous reason"
[08:28] <ikonia> tcblack: good call, good to remove the obvious
[08:28] <Stevethepirate> ikonia: Sigh!!
[08:28] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: what ?
[08:28] <ryugaka> you know what i wish i knew before?
[08:28] <Stevethepirate> I'm sighing.. i have no clue who made it..
[08:28] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: then where did you get it ?
[08:28] <ryugaka> like on console if you are starting up an app
[08:29] <ryugaka> like "firefox"
[08:29] <ryugaka> putting firefox&
[08:29] <ph8> bruenig: I was under the impression it was near equal
[08:29] <ikonia> ryugaka: this is a support not chat channel

[08:30] <ikonia> Stevethepirate: I don't want to know, more a case of the link you got it from should have info on where it is made and packaged from
[08:30] <Elegb> key nerolinux 3.0???

[08:33] <manurespreader> hi4all may anyone say software who can open files from ftp for editing
[08:33] <kbrooks> ikonia: "no" is not an useful answer.
[08:33] <finalbeta> Scunizi: a vnc viewer doesn't help me.
[08:33] <AngryElf_> is there a packaged installation of IVTV available?
[08:33] <kbrooks> fsgaston: *looks*
[08:33] <Scunizi> finalbeta, what do you mean locks on x?
[08:33] <magnetron> manurespreader: that is built into ubuntu
[08:33] <cox377> is there anyway to set the download directory of azureus to an smb share opposed to downloading to the the local hd?
[08:33] <AngryElf_> I only see ivtv-source/utils no driver
[08:33] <cox377> hdd*
[08:33] <ikonia> kbrooks: I don't have any docs
[08:33] <magnetron> manurespreader: places > connect to server
[08:34] <finalbeta> Scunizi: something left .Xauthority-c and .Xautority-l and it didn't want to go away, even with xauth -b quit.
[08:34] <finalbeta> Locked up x. How fragile this is.
[08:34] <manurespreader> magnetron:  thanks
[08:34] <cjae> hello channel

[08:35] <kbrooks> ikonia: if you don't have a useful answer, don't answer at all.
[08:35] <Scunizi> finalbeta, have you seen the wike page on this?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH
[08:35] <kbrooks> Dabaconboy: you might want to clarify what you mean by "none of the solutions help".
[08:35] <ikonia> kbrooks: I could have said "have you tried looking this is nothing to do with ubuntu so not really apporoptiate for an ubuntu support channel"
[08:36] <ph8> can i install i386 debs on amd64?
[08:36] <ikonia> ph8: no

[08:36] <kbrooks> fsgaston: um, i haven't heard of (nor ha s google heard of) a "ifolder 3.5". are you sure this is the version you are talking about?
[08:36] <Scunizi> finalbeta, k.. sorry I couldn't be more help.. It's something I have an interest in too but haven't had time to play with.
[08:36] <ikonia> ifolder is an apple product as I recall

[08:41] <ikonia> kramer31: the module is probably just not being loaded
[08:41] <ikonia> not uninstalled

[08:41] <kramer31> ikonia: how would i load the module?
[08:41] <ikonia> modprobe
[08:41] <ikonia> or modules.conf

[08:41] <Ornedan> neverblue: Shall list once it next unfreezes :P
[08:41] <kbrooks> kramer31: also, along with modprobe, you may add it to modules.conf
[08:41] <Seveas> !pastebin | Dabaconboy
[08:41] <ubotu> Dabaconboy: 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)
[08:42] <neverblue> Ornedan, im guessing it probably an addon
[08:42] <neverblue> no need to list them
[08:42] <kramer31> ikonia: thanks
[08:42] <kbrooks> Dabaconboy: that is not a error message.
[08:42] <outlier> What's a good source for instruction on how to set up a secure home office network ?
[08:42] <^Adam> hello
[08:42] <ikonia> tldp.org
[08:42] <^Adam> :)
[08:42] <Dabaconboy> what is it then and how do i get past it
[08:42] <^Adam> im new to linux :PP
[08:42] <neverblue> Ornedan, you can enter "top" in a shell, and view which processes are occupying the CPU
[08:42] <Ornedan> neverblue: Possibly, but I want to find out. Which is why I asked how to attach a debugger to the running process
[08:42] <neverblue> narrow down that its FF
[08:42] <kbrooks> Dabaconboy: are you using DESKTOP  or ALTERNATE
[08:42] <asdf> Hey does anyone have a suggestion for an app that i can point at my music collection and download album art to the album folder?
[08:42] <Kjellviz> hi, anyone here got Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000 working in Ubuntu ?
[08:42] <Dabaconboy> desktop
[08:43] <ikonia> asdf: there is one - I found it the other day
[08:43] <^Adam> yoyo
[08:43] <^Adam> :] 
[08:43] <neverblue> Ornedan, then you can also look in your ~ in .mozilla folder
[08:43] <kramer31> ikonia: where is modules.conf and modprobe?
[08:43] <Ornedan> neverblue: I know. And I run gkrellm. And ~0% total processor usage during freezes
[08:43] <ikonia> asdf: let me see if I can dig it out
[08:43] <ikonia> ^Adam: don't spam
[08:43] <ikonia> kramer31: /etc/modules.conf
[08:43] <^Adam> :/
[08:43] <neverblue> Ornedan, just giving you options :(
[08:43] <asdf> ikonia: thanks a lot
[08:43] <kbrooks> Dabaconboy: so, you put the CD in, rebooted, and then what? did you get the ubuntu boot screen, with "boot:" somewhere?
[08:43] <roryy> Ornedan: you can attach with gdb, but i think you'll need the ff sources for that to be useful
[08:43] <MadDog011> Can I get a tutorial on deleting the MESA driver's for ATI Card...
[08:44] <MadDog011> Im stuck with MESA and I want the binary ones
[08:44] <MadDog011> I don't know how to delete it
[08:44] <eks> hey! i'm trying to install nvidia drivers. how do i start ubuntu/gnome in some "verbose" mode?
[08:44] <roryy> Ornedan: ddd is a graphical gdb frontend
[08:44] <wols_> MadDog011: no need to delete anything. just install the proper drivers
[08:44] <ikonia> asdf: it may take a few minutes it was rare
[08:44] <kbrooks> roryy: no, he needs the debug build.
[08:44] <Dabaconboy> yer i get the cd options and 25 secs to select them. i select the top option and then i get a loading screen simelar to the windows boot screen, then the message i posted appears
[08:44] <wols_> !ati < MadDog011
[08:44] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ati < maddog011 - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:44] <MadDog011> how
[08:44] <wols_> !ati | MadDog011
[08:44] <roryy> Ornedan: see what kbrooks said
[08:44] <ubotu> MadDog011: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[08:44] <neverblue> MadDog011, use the ubuntu guide
[08:44] <asdf> ikonia: no prob
[08:44] <Ornedan> roryy: Are the firefox-dbg & firefox-dev packages enoughh?
[08:44] <neverblue> it will list howto install the drivers
[08:45] <kbrooks> Dabaconboy: well, check the CD for defects.
[08:45] <Dabaconboy> the check cd function??
[08:45] <Dabaconboy> or md5sum thingy
[08:45] <kbrooks> Dabaconboy: i suspect you'll have to reburn another CD, but check first
[08:45] <joejoe300> so i just set up ubuntu finally
[08:45] <joejoe300> can someone help me out fixing the boot order though
[08:45] <roryy> Ornedan: that'll be debugging symbols and header files
[08:45] <joejoe300> in case other people use my computer
[08:45] <joejoe300> i want windows to be default
[08:46] <joejoe300> also there are like 5 entries for ubuntu for some reason (xxxx.15 and xxxxx.16)
[08:46] <Kitar|st> so you actually want that it atuomaticly boots to windows
[08:46] <wols_> joejoe300: edit your menu.lst
[08:46] <Dabaconboy> rite be back after dick check then
[08:46] <ikonia> asdf: this isn't the one I was looking for but looks worth a look http://www.lockergnome.com/nexus/linux/2005/06/14/album-cover-art-downloader/
[08:46] <eks> joejoe300: menu.lst is in /boot/grub
[08:46] <lonegunman> Where should I send a brief compliment/thanks about the kernel update that recently went out for Feisty?
[08:46] <Dabaconboy> disk** :)
[08:46] <Kitar|st> :P
[08:46] <wols_> joejoe300: you have more than one ubuntu kernel isntalled that's wh
[08:46] <wols_> y
[08:46] <sainzeo> @joejoe300: those are the different kernels for ubuntu i believe
[08:46] <eks> joejoe300: just change the order of the stuff there
[08:46] <roryy> Ornedan: you can see what happens with just those, but i'd guess you need to source to really know what's happening
[08:46] <wols_> lonegunman: nowhere
[08:46] <Kjellviz> can someone help me with installing a webcam ?
[08:46] <wols_> lonegunman: unless you have a bug report
[08:47] <Kitar|st> he probably wants that it would Automaticly boot to windows withou showing the boot menu
[08:47] <joejoe300> so i need to use the terminal?
[08:47] <Kitar|st> he probably wants that it would Automaticly boot to windows without showing the boot menu
[08:47] <asdf> ikonia: i was just looking at that one but unfortunately the link to it are dead
[08:47] <joejoe300> to edit menu.lst?
[08:47] <ikonia> I'm still looking for the one I found last week
[08:47] <wols_> joejoe300: you need an editor
[08:47] <manurespreader> why i cant to connect to ftp via places>connect to server

[08:48] <manurespreader> why i cant to connect to ftp via places>connect to server
[08:48] <Stevethepirate> sootu: do u have dual boot?
[08:48] <asdf> ikonia: dont worry about it if you cant find it, im sure i could whip up a perl script to do the same thing in an hour or so
[08:48] <kramer31> ikonia: what would i type in modules.conf?
[08:48] <sootu> Yes
[08:48] <private_meta> hi guys...

[08:50] <{DB}HobbitJa> Hello
[08:51] <{DB}HobbitJa> linux n00b here, looking for a little assistance with mouning my 2nd drive which is a sata
[08:51] <{DB}HobbitJa> im trying mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/satadrive
[08:51] <{DB}HobbitJa> but getting error
[08:51] <jonaskoelker> I have a question: I have a laptop with a dvi out, which I've plugged my old crt monitor into (via an adapter).  Now, I want to ~double my useful screen real estate.  How do I go about that?
[08:52] <roryy> {DB}HobbitJa: what error?
[08:52] <jelobe> hola
[08:52] <jonaskoelker> I've tried putting various things into my xorg.conf;  my latest result is clone mode, even though I have Option "Clone" "Off"
[08:53] <joejoe300> thanks people, i guess easiest way is to just check
[08:53] <wols_> {DB}HobbitJa: what error?
[08:53] <cox377> 11637: session setup failed: ERRDOS - ERRnoaccess (Access denied.)
[08:53] <cox377> SMB connection failed
[08:54] <cox377> thats the error msg when i try and fount an smb share, anyone got any ideas what i'm doing wrong because when i do smb://host/folder it works fine
[08:54] <dmc68> howdy gang. I have multiple C++ positions available in the SEATTLE Area if anyone is interested or has a friend. PM so we dont disrupt the channel. Thank you for your time.
[08:54] <wols_> cox377: mount the directory. start azureus and point it to the directory you just mounted
[08:54] <Ornedan> roryy: Looks like I had enough for an intelligible stack trace, even without the source
[08:55] <Dabaconboy> kbrooks: i have done a cd check on the cd ubuntu programme from boot and a md5 check... the md5 worked however the cd check on the boot didnt i got the same message
[08:55] <wols_> cox377: wong usernamed that tried to mount it
[08:55] <roryy> Ornedan: good stuff
[08:55] <ryugaka> quicky question
[08:55] <ryugaka> is there a bash scripting room?
[08:55] <ryugaka> on this channel?
[08:55] <Dabaconboy> #bash
[08:55] <manurespreader> are in linux analog to CuteFtp?
[08:55] <wols_> ryugaka: there are not rooms on irc, and this is the ubunut channel
[08:55] <wols_> manurespreader: gftp, filezilla, etc
[08:56] <ryugaka> channel you know
[08:56] <ryugaka> haha
[08:56] <ryugaka> that's what i meant
[08:56] <wols_> ryugaka: there are (free) ebooks about bash scripting
[08:56] <cox377> wols_: definatly got the right user name and password, the share does however have read/write guest
[08:56] <Snaporaz> hello there
[08:56] <wols_> cox377: full mount line please
[08:56] <iqon> ryanakca, yes, #bash
[08:56] <Kjellviz> need some help with installing a webcam
[08:56] <Snaporaz> what about new kubuntu 7.04?
[08:57] <Dabaconboy> webcam wise have you tried the website of the company that made it
[08:57] <cox377> wol_: sudo mount -t smbfs //192.168..x.x/Store /media/Store -o username=storeusername,password=storepassword,fmask=0777,dmask=0777
[08:57] <jonaskoelker> and my xorg.conf is available at http://jonaskoelker.homeunix.org/~jonas/filetransfer/xorg.conf
[08:57] <ryugaka> uh there really is.
[08:58] <wols_> cox377: does user "storeusername" exist on the host with the share?
[08:58] <Kjellviz> Dabaconboy: no, but ive tried the ubuntu hardware compatibility list, found it there and installed as described there, but no luck
[08:58] <joejoe300> hrmm ran into a problem
[08:58] <wols_> cox377: is it n the smb password file?
[08:58] <jonaskoelker> what should I change to double my (non-redundant) screen real estate?
[08:58] <joejoe300> so ubuntu is installed on an external drive
[08:58] <joejoe300> if i disconnect the drive and turn on my computer
[08:58] <joejoe300> GRUB has an error and my computer won't boot
[08:58] <wols_> joejoe300: you installed grub int he MBR of your internal harddisk
[08:58] <wols_> joejoe300: what was wrong
[08:59] <cox377> wols_: the username is the username used to log into the store machine and the password is the password for the store machine, in terms of the SMB password file, is that on the server or client?
[08:59] <Dabaconboy> rite i dunno then mate soz i cant get ubuntu to work as yet on the comp so thats y im here but i just thought it wud be a useful suggestion
[08:59] <wols_> xyverz: server. man smbpasswd if it's a linux machine
[08:59] <joejoe300> wols_ i forget the error, i think it said 21
[08:59] <joejoe300> but basically i couldnt see the list
[08:59] <Guitrokr> um i have a huge problem, i was on windows for a few days, booted linux, downloaded the updates that came up in update manager when it booted, for the first time ever since using linux it actually said i needed to restart, when i did, grub didn't show ANYthing for windows, all that was there was ubuntu, so i chose ubuntu... naturally, and now everytime i restart windows is missing, and ubuntu can't mount any partitions containing windows.
[08:59] <wols_> joejoe300: it doesn't matter what error it was. I told you the problem
[08:59] <joejoe300> thanks wols
[08:59] <matthew> in nautilus one of my files has what looks like a "lock" emblem on it.  what does this mean?
[08:59] <joejoe300> what can i do to fix it?
[08:59] <deviantintegral> I'm looking for a media player/browser that is meant for TV output, works with lirc, and is not mythtv (as I don't need the cable recording). Any suggestions?
[09:00] <Kjellviz> Dabaconboy: hehe, well thanks for the thought =)
[09:00] <wols_> joejoe300: first. put another bootloader in your mBR
[09:00] <matthew> deviantintegral: elisa or freevo
[09:00] <wols_> joejoe300: and reinstall grub differently
[09:00] <quangle> hey guys. I'm trying to rename all files in a directory that end in "_l.jpg" to end in "_o.jpg". Can I do that from the shell?
[09:00] <cox377> wols_: what you think mate?
[09:00] <joejoe300> im a complete noob to any of this
[09:00] <Kjellviz> need some help with installing a webcam
[09:00] <joejoe300> whats another bootloader that would be better?
[09:00] <wols_> cox377: server. man smbpasswd if it's a linux machine
[09:01] <Dabaconboy> hey any chance of some help with this please https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/7476 i cant find out what it is and the link suggested on there has been acted upon
[09:01] <joejoe300> and is there a good tutorial to fixing up grub properly
[09:01] <Kalisto> matthew, it means the file has permissions set that do not include you
[09:01] <wols_> Kjellviz: find out what eebcam it actually is, look for howtos, start to do something your self. state a exact problem
[09:01] <matthew> Kalisto:  this is what ls -l says about the permissions:  -r--r--r--
[09:02] <Ares|Work> Hello
[09:02] <tatters> quangle: sure, I did this the otherday unfortunatly I forgot how, I asked in #bash channel and got answer within a min
[09:02] <Kalisto> matthew, only read access.
[09:02] <Kalisto> matthew, what do you want to do with the file?
[09:02] <joejoe300> wols_ would it be easier if i just uninstalled GRUB from my internal drive and put it on my external drive?
[09:02] <mobutu> IM INSTALLING AUTOMATIX
[09:02] <joejoe300> if so, how can i do that?
[09:02] <quangle> tatters: thanks
[09:02] <matthew> just read it is fine.  It's a PDF, but none of my other PDF have this.
[09:03] <wols_> joejoe300: you cannot uninstall grub. all you can do is overwrite it or reinstall
[09:03] <emanuelez> hello
[09:03] <wols_> !automatix | mobutu
[09:03] <ubotu> mobutu: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[09:03] <joejoe300> wols_ what is the default 'bootloader' for windows?
[09:03] <Kjellviz> wols_: logitech quickcam pro 5000, have read every howto i can find, they are all greek to me, have downloaded UVC driver from BerliOS, changed the makefile according to this info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCamerasLogitech   then did make and make install
[09:03] <cox377> wols_: do you know roughtly where the smbpasswd file is located? command line only here
[09:03] <Kjellviz> it all seems to go without error
[09:03] <Kalisto> mathew do chmod u+rwx file
[09:03] <ryugaka> how do you restart x?
[09:03] <Kalisto> ryanakca, ctl alt backspace
[09:03] <emanuelez> i'm trying to use gtick (metronome application), but it complains it cannot use /dev/dsp. for everything else sound works fine. any hint?
[09:04] <wols_> cox377: in your path
[09:04] <Kjellviz> but i cant get my cam to work in amsn, kopete or ekiga
[09:04] <BrokenCrystal>  support for automatix is in #automatix
[09:04] <wols_> cox377: locate smbpasswd
[09:04] <Ornedan> neverblue, roryy: Thanks. Looks like it's something in nsXMLHttpRequest::send. It seems that the same thread as the UI handles JavaScript, and for some reason, it's sleeping
[09:04] <cox377> wols_: chjeers
[09:04] <GreySim> Hey, I'm having a hard drive give me IO errors during boot, and it no longer mounts. I was wondering if anyone knew what utilities would be available in the Ubuntu repos to diagnose this?
[09:04] <deviantintegral> matthew: neither seem to be in the universe, but thanks for the suggestions. Have you used them?
[09:05] <joejoe300> or wols_ maybe its simpler
[09:05] <matthew> deviantintegral:  i've used both.  they are all right. they are only launchers, they require mplayer to play video for example.  I think elisa you can add a repo to get it.
[09:05] <joejoe300> can i edit grub such that if the external drive is not there, it just looks for windows and loads it
[09:05] <wols_> Kjellviz: is that uvc driver loaded as a kenrel module?
[09:05] <joejoe300> and if the drive is there, it gives me the full list?
[09:06] <wols_> joejoe300: no
[09:06] <deviantintegral> matthew: yeah. mythtv worked but browsing videos was really slow
[09:06] <joejoe300> wols_: so what's my best solution?
[09:06] <Kalisto> if you cant mount it your in trouble
[09:06] <Pupbuntoo> hi, is there a reason latex in feisty isn't hyphenating my document?
[09:06] <payam> How the hell can i open a RAR file?
[09:06] <Guitrokr> um i have a huge problem, i was on windows for a few days, booted linux, downloaded the updates that came up in update manager when it booted, for the first time ever since using linux it actually said i needed to restart, when i did, grub didn't show ANYthing for windows, all that was there was ubuntu, so i chose ubuntu... naturally, and now everytime i restart windows is missing, and ubuntu can't mount any partitions containing windows.
[09:06] <wols_> part of grub is on the internal MBR, and the bigger part, that displays the menu, is on the external hdd in /boot/grub/
[09:06] <wols_> depends on your partition layout
[09:06] <sootu> .
[09:06] <Kalisto> Pupbuntoo, what is the character encoding?
[09:06] <Kjellviz> wols_: not sure how to check that, but i think thats what a lsmod does ?
[09:06] <wols_> Guitrokr: you need to edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[09:07] <wols_> Kjellviz: yes
[09:07] <Guitrokr> what do i add in to get windows back?
[09:07] <Kalisto> Guitrokr, startx
[09:07] <Pupbuntoo> kalisto, i'm not sure, it's just a .tex file, should be ascii or whatever
[09:07] <Guitrokr> i forgot exactly what tsaid
[09:07] <joejoe300> wols_: so how to I replace grub on the internal drive with whatever I used to have (windows only bootloader) and put grub on the external mbr?
[09:07] <joejoe300> really appreciate the help btw
[09:07] <wols_> joejoe300: fixmbr
[09:07] <Kjellviz> wols_: if so, then yes, it prints this;
[09:07] <Kjellviz> videodev               28160  1 uvcvideo
[09:07] <Kjellviz> v4l1_compat            15236  2 uvcvideo,videodev
[09:07] <Kjellviz> v4l2_common            25216  2 uvcvideo,videodev
[09:07] <matthew> deviantintegral:  I agree, and it's hard to configure mythtv if you don't want a backend. It seems that media centers are built mostly for time-shift television.  with the other stuff as an afterthought.  But that's not to say that Elisa and Freevo aren't work a try.
[09:07] <Pupbuntoo> Kalisto, proposal.tex: ASCII English text according to "file"
[09:07] <kbrooks> Guitrokr: maybe i have it.
[09:07] <Guitrokr> ok kbrooks
[09:07] <joejoe300> wols_: I run that from a terminal?
[09:08] <joejoe300> fixmbr = reset mbr?
[09:08] <Kjellviz> wols_: and this uvcvideo               42500  0
[09:08] <wols_> Kjellviz: check dmesg if it tells you its device file
[09:08] <Kalisto> Pupbuntoo, your computer does not like your thesis ;)
[09:08] <Kjellviz> ok
[09:08] <wols_> Kjellviz: and error messages would really be nice...
[09:08] <joejoe300> or do you mean i run fixmbr from windows?
[09:08] <Kjellviz> okok
[09:08] <Pupbuntoo> Kalisto, it's sad because it's true ;(
[09:08] <nikin> hy.. i tryed to use cpulimit.. but if i set it to 1-5% the program still eats about 15%, any idea how to fix that... I use the sourceforge version on dapper server
[09:08] <kbrooks> Guitrokr: pm me?
[09:08] <wols_> joejoe300: fixmbr is a windows program from the reocvery console
[09:08] <matthew> deviantintegral:  https://core.fluendo.com/elisa/trac/wiki/Packages   <----- that shows you how to get elisa.  Freevo is slightly more difficult to install.
[09:08] <Kalisto> Pupbuntoo, what are you using to convert to pdf?
[09:09] <private_meta> hmm... so, does anyone have info on how i can mount an sd-card-reader (2GB SD-Flash-card) that's connected via PCMCIA, internal?
[09:09] <joejoe300> recovery console?
[09:09] <joejoe300> its not available from the winXP terminal
[09:09] <Pupbuntoo> Kalisto, i'm just using "latex proposal.tex" right now and looking at the DVI file
[09:09] <wols_> joejoe300: no. ask a windows channel this is OT
[09:09] <broedje> nikin: sometomes there ist two cpu displays, for example htop and top.... i think it s because of user and root execution
[09:09] <Colossus> Weird. My mouse seems sticky on Ubuntu now ... when I move it around, every now and then it just stops.
[09:09] <deviantintegral> matthew: excellent, I'll have to give them a try.
[09:09] <sgrove> what's the easiest way to share files between ubuntu computers?
[09:10] <Kjellviz> wols_: are there any easier ways to read the output from dmesg than the all black text on the all white background in my terminal ?
[09:10] <wols_> broedje: no
[09:10] <matthew> deviantintegral:  good luck.
[09:10] <Kalisto> Pupbuntoo, dont know much about it. you might want to use "kile" to view it. it can give you more info
[09:10] <joejoe300> wols_: ok so if i fix the internal drive's mbr
[09:10] <wols_> Kjellviz: dmesg |less
[09:10] <clearzen> sgrove: nfs mounts
[09:10] <nikin> joejoe300: put in the XP install cd and then you can select to start the reco console
[09:10] <IntuitiveNipple> Anyone here got a Vaio with Phoenix BIOS, can do me a favour and capture a memory snapshot of it?
[09:10] <sgrove> should I stick with SMB, or is that more of a way to share files with windows?
[09:10] <joejoe300> how do i install GRUB on the external mbr?
[09:10] <clearzen> sgrove: or sshfs
[09:10] <Kjellviz> wols_: ok thanks
[09:10] <broedje> private_meta: the model from delock? does it really take more than one GB?
[09:10] <joejoe300> right now external doesnt have a working mbr i think
[09:10] <wols_> IntuitiveNipple: that makes no sense
[09:10] <joejoe300> because when i try to boot from it it says
[09:10] <broedje> DeLock
[09:10] <joejoe300> "j"
[09:10] <joejoe300> and stops
[09:10] <IntuitiveNipple> wols_: Makes perfect sense :)
[09:10] <wols_> joejoe300: man grub-install
[09:10] <emanuelez> i'm trying to use gtick (metronome application), but it complains it cannot use /dev/dsp. for everything else sound works fine. any hint?
[09:10] <sgrove> clearzen: clearzen thanks, I goodle those
[09:10] <Kalisto> joejoe300, just install the mbr on the device /dev/device
[09:11] <joejoe300> wols_: sorry for being a noob, but I type that in a console window?
[09:11] <Colossus> Hrrm. Also, I'm only getting a partial menu. The "Applications" portion of the menu doesn't show up at all. :(
[09:11] <ryugaka> dangit this means i have to install all the media stuff and crap now.
[09:11] <Kalisto> joejoe300, no one sec
[09:11] <ryugaka> one by one.
[09:11] <wols_> IntuitiveNipple: no it does not. memory has possibly that users passwords and stuff. no one will give you a memory snapshot. not to mention that it is several hundred MB
[09:11] <wols_> joejoe300: yes
[09:11] <joejoe300> how do i list devices again (want the correct name)
[09:11] <private_meta> broedje: the card reader worked perfectly when i used it with windows, ~1 month ago
[09:11] <clearzen> sgrove: I would suggest using sshfs because it is encrypted. But nfs mounts are faster because there is no security during transfer.
[09:11] <broedje> private_meta: which brand?
[09:11] <wols_> joejoe300: cat /proc/partitions
[09:11] <Kalisto> joejoe300, http://www.fedoraforum.org/forum/showthread.php?t=975
[09:11] <IntuitiveNipple> wols_: You obviously don't understand the question then, I asked for a snapshot of the BIOS, a 64KB section of Read-Only Memory
[09:12] <private_meta> broedje: it's an internal card reader in an asus notebook, but dmesg tells me it's connected via PCMCIA
[09:12] <broedje> uh
[09:12] <Kjellviz> wols_: i get a LOT of errormessages like this:
[09:12] <Kjellviz> [  498.775003]  uvcvideo: Failed to query (1) UVC control 2 (unit 0) : -32 (exp. 26).
[09:12] <Kjellviz> with different parameters
[09:12] <wols_> IntuitiveNipple: more like you don't know how linux or BIOSes work
[09:12] <private_meta> broedje: [17777.580000]  pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0
[09:12] <broedje> yea.... i cant mount mine MS sony in grml linux sorry
[09:12] <broedje> yea, same
[09:12] <private_meta> ...
[09:12] <IntuitiveNipple> wols: If you don't have a Phoenix BIOS, then you can't help.
[09:12] <broedje> little pcmcia
[09:12] <wols_> IntuitiveNipple: a modern bIOS is far bigger than 64kB fyi. it's usually 256kB
[09:12] <sgrove> clearzen: is there a gui tool for mounting nfs shares on another computer, or is it all terminal?
[09:13] <IntuitiveNipple> wols_: oh leave off, I know what I am doing, you don't. If you can't help me then don't interfere
[09:13] <joejoe300> cat /proc/partitions only shows my internal drive
[09:13] <Kjellviz> wols_: and here is some info about the driver (i think ><):
[09:13] <Kjellviz> [   54.267711]  uvcvideo: Found UVC 1.00 device <unnamed> (046d:08ce)
[09:13] <Kjellviz> [   54.296730]  usbcore: registered new interface driver uvcvideo
[09:13] <Kjellviz> [   54.296737]  USB Video Class driver (v0.1.0)
[09:13] <wols_> IntuitiveNipple: and to burn it you need to have it in a sort of archive os that the burn program accepts it
[09:13] <Kalisto> sgrove, depends on the system. but your faster with terminal
[09:13] <private_meta> broedje: damn... i'm having dozens of problems in ubuntu... dozens of problems more than i had on windows -_-
[09:13] <joejoe300> not external
[09:13] <joejoe300> odd
[09:13] <nikin> hy.. i tryed to use cpulimit.. but if i set it to 1-5% the program still eats about 15%, any idea how to fix that... I use the sourceforge version on dapper server
[09:13] <wols_> Kjellviz: /ignore Kjellviz  for extensive pasting
[09:13] <Kalisto> private_meta, have you googled?
[09:13] <clearzen> sgrove: it's all terminal. You can use the GUI by going to Places-->connect to server. and setting up a share on your desktop that way as well
[09:13] <private_meta> Kalisto: yes...
[09:14] <IntuitiveNipple> wols_: FYI, the section I need is the 64KB from 0xF0000 to 0xFFFFF, and the BIOS in FLASH is 1MB, but it pages in the bits it needs.
[09:14] <clearzen> sgrove: assuming you are using gnome
[09:14] <Kalisto> private_meta, if its not on the net then i doubt anyone can help you
[09:14] <clearzen> sgrove: I would use ssh if you do it that way
[09:14] <jason_> hi i have a Evo 512 ram 2.0 ghz P4 cpu and a 40 gb hd with a 1500 up and 386 down internet connection would my system be concedered as a low end system or what
[09:14] <private_meta> Kalisto: 95% of my problems are not on the net...
[09:14] <sgrove> yeah, default install of ubuntu
[09:14] <jason_> i need to know iam doing some tweaks
[09:14] <joejoe300> wols_: so "grub-install /dev/hdb" will do it?
[09:14] <wols_> IntuitiveNipple: thing is, linux is protected mode. which means 0xF0000 is not display in linux... at least not at that address
[09:14] <Kalisto> private_meta, then you need to learn how to search
[09:14] <IntuitiveNipple> Anyone with a Phoenix BIOS, I need the 64KB section from F0000. You can get it simply by soing "sudo dd if=/dev/mem of=BIOS-F000.bin bs=65536 count=1 skip=15" and then gzip the file
[09:15] <private_meta> Kalisto: well, either that, or it's just, like always, my kind of luck...
[09:15] <IntuitiveNipple> wols_: You're obviously not familiar with Linux memory organisation
[09:15] <kazim59> i installed mozilla-mplayer
[09:15] <cox377> wols_: ok, i'm assuming i'm running this command "sudo smbpasswd -a cox", i run that which then prompts me for pass and confirm pass which i do, i then get "Failed to modify password entry for user cox" any ideas mate?
[09:15] <Kjellviz> wols_: sorry, but you asked for me to read that for u
[09:15] <Kalisto> private_meta, search forums too. gentoo are the best. also debian
[09:16] <clearzen> IntuitiveNipple: I may have a phoenix bios...can I tell from a terminal?
[09:16] <nikin> IntuitiveNipple: any Phoenix BIOS will do?
[09:16] <kazim59> i installed mozilla-mplayer... but still my firefox will try to play embedded wma files using totem there..... and totem won't play them (shows stopped).. how do i change firefox to use mplayer.. (or do i need to install smthing else too)
[09:16] <clearzen> IntuitiveNipple: It may be my server that has the phoenix bios I can't remeber
[09:16] <neun> ayeaye!!
[09:16] <joejoe300> wols_: so "grub-install /dev/hdb" will do it?
[09:16] <Kjellviz> wols_:  its not like i know how to transfer the info to you telepathically
[09:16] <jason_> kazime uninstall all the extra media player
[09:16] <broedje> my xserver-xorg refuses to apt-get upgrade, i would like to purge it, but how
[09:17] <kazim59> jason_: u mean i shud uninstall totem?
[09:17] <jason_> except vlc and real player a mplayer
[09:17] <jason_> yes
[09:17] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen  nikin Yes, any will do. I'm having to disassemble it to work out what the code at F4120 is doing, and I have just sent my only PC with a Phoenix BIOS off to be serviced
[09:17] <kazim59> jason_: apt-get remove totem
[09:17] <wols_> joejoe300: yes. but you still need the mBR to chain over to grub on hdb
[09:17] <kazim59> jason_: ?
[09:17] <jason_> uninstall all codec
[09:17] <jason_> yea
[09:17] <kazim59> jason_: I've got mplayer installed... and i've added extra codecs to it too (in particlar directories win32 etc)
[09:18] <macaronesico> hello all, i need some help installing
[09:18] <jason_> got to add and remove and just use the gstreamer in there and it will play the embeded things like that
[09:18] <bruenig> !hi | macaronesico be specific
[09:18] <ubotu> macaronesico be specific: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[09:18] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen: If you type at a terminal "sudo dd if=/dev/mem of=BIOS-F000.bin bs=65536 count=1 skip=15" and then do "grep 'Phoenix' BIOS-F000.bin that should show if it is Phoenix
[09:18] <nikin> IntuitiveNipple: is there any command where i can get info about my bios?
[09:18] <private_meta> Kalisto: i do search forums, but it's not but sometimes it's hard to find motivation if you've passed the first 10 pages in google search
[09:18] <neun> well not remembering who actually helped me some minutes ago i say THANK YOU! to the ubuntu community
[09:18] <IntuitiveNipple> nikin: See my msg above to clearzen :)
[09:18] <bruenig> !caps | neun
[09:18] <ubotu> neun: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[09:18] <jason_> kazime i had the same problem and thats how i fixed it
[09:18] <chrono__> Does anybody know the name of the toolbar/ plugin which is sorta ripped from the mac's? please PM me if you know
[09:19] <bruenig> !pm
[09:19] <Mind7> Free calls - http://callfree.point-serv.com/en/
[09:19] <ubotu> Please ask your questions in the channel so that other people can also benefit. Please don't PM a user in the channel without asking first, some find it rude.
[09:19] <Kjellviz> sigh, i hate being new at this, trying to get help and get dissed for not getting help in the right way, way to go for a open minded community ><
[09:19] <neun> bruenig, not the kind of answer i expected but i got it.
[09:19] <jason_> all the codec u need is in the gstreamers in add/remove
[09:19] <Kalisto> private_meta, http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/ftp/doc/PCMCIA-HOWTO.html
[09:19] <joejoe300> wols_: so that means I CANT just fixmbr (in windows) and install grub on the external mbr?
[09:19] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen: nikin: The reason I need this is, I have a laptop that has VMX (hardware Virtualisation) but the BIOS doesn't provide an option to enable it so I'm hacking it to enable VMX
[09:19] <private_meta> Kalisto: had that page already iirc
[09:19] <wols_> joejoe300: no
[09:20] <kazim59> jason_: totem-mozilla was installed.. i removed it
[09:20] <babylon> Hi, first time on this channel but ive been googling for ages and havent found an answer to my prob... What I have is a problem with video payback.. any format on any player vlc xine totem kaffeine etc. the video image is split diagonaly from top left to bottom right of the screen and everything on the left of the diagonal is reversed. any ideas. Ubuntu feisty 64bit ati radeom proprietry drivers installed
[09:20] <joejoe300> so what do you recommend I do?
[09:20] <jason_> all the extra media codec in automatix mess it up and u cant play dvix moveins or and inbeded movvies
[09:20] <bruenig> !automatix | jason_
[09:20] <ubotu> jason_: Automatix2 is a script that tries to install some software, and often fails and breaks systems. We don't provide support for it, and we strongly discourage its use. Problems caused by Automatix are often hard to track and solve, and it might sometimes be easier to !install a fresh copy of Ubuntu. See also !WorksForMe
[09:20] <wols_> joejoe300: make ntldr load the hdb bootsector (grub)
[09:20] <wols_> there are howtos for this out there
[09:20] <clearzen> IntuitiveNipple: It says that the Binary file BIOS-F000.bin matches. I assume that means it is a phoenix bios image then
[09:20] <kazim59> jason_: automatix is bad... really
[09:20] <jason_> yes it is
[09:21] <Kalisto> private_meta, whats the exact error output?
[09:21] <jason_> the only thing i get from automatix is chat programs and p2p programs
[09:21] <jason_> is all
[09:21] <Pupbuntoo> man, epstopdf totally locks my system up now ;(
[09:21] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen: Yes I think so :) Could you compress the file using "gzip BIOS-F000.bin" please?
[09:21] <jason_> efvery thing else is in add/remove
[09:21] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen: The *all* you need to do is upload it to a file-sharing service :)
[09:21] <IntuitiveNipple> ^then^
[09:22] <bruenig> Kalisto, the ignorant generally do
[09:22] <clearzen> IntuitiveNipple: sure just give me a sec
[09:22] <sileni> hello, i'am using ubuntu edgy and i want to install the plugin to display applets in a webpage but it states i cant and dont have jre so i installed jre and made a symlink between the plugin and plugin section in mozilla...but it still does not work
[09:22] <cr3_> i'm trying to configure using 'pwnconfig' and after tests is says "select (1-n):" what am i  supposed to select/type there?!
[09:22] <wols_> sileni: amd64?
[09:22] <Kalisto> bruenig, why?
[09:22] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen: I very much appreciate your help - you're saving me having to wait until my laptop returns middle of next week, to do this :)
[09:22] <sileni> yes
[09:22] <sileni> silenyes
[09:22] <sileni> yes
[09:22] <private_meta> Kalisto: there is no output that i know of
[09:22] <bruenig> Kalisto, did you not see what ubotu said
[09:22] <Kalisto> private_meta, then what is the problem?
[09:23] <sdac> hi,  how can i check what my fiesty kernel is and how can i upgrade to newer one  ?    My SATA HD connected to old system through controller is running very slow due to bad scsi device driver.. maybe new kernel will have new driver
[09:23] <nikin> IntuitiveNipple: where do you want me to send the file?
[09:23] <macaronesico> i'm installing ubuntu 6(almost sure its 6) on an acer Travelmate 525 TE t starts repeating irq 15 disabling irq #15 nobody cared about the irqpoll option i tryed addiyng irqpoll at the end off the installation string but seems not to be right
[09:23] <sileni> wols_: yes
[09:23] <Kalisto> bruenig, you dont understand ubuntu enough to understand that its hated
[09:23] <jason_> what version of jre u have sileni
[09:23] <Kjellviz> Im trying to insall Logitech Quickcam Pro 5000 using the UVC driver from http://linux-uvc.berlios.de/, have also made a change in the makefile according to this page; https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportComponentsMultimediaWebCamerasLogitech , then i ran make and make install. So far ive understood that my driver is loaded, but i cant use it in any applications like amsn, kopete or ekiga. Anyone got an idea on where to start looking 
[09:23] <Kjellviz> ?
[09:23] <IntuitiveNipple> nikin: Upload yo a file sharing service... do you want me to point you to one?
[09:23] <sileni> 1.6.0
[09:23] <sileni> jason_: 1.6.0
[09:23] <pietro10> Hey
[09:23] <Tru7h> Hey
[09:23] <bruenig> Kalisto, I don't understand ubuntu enough to understand that what is hated?
[09:23] <Tru7h> It's me again
[09:23] <jason_> it should work then
[09:23] <private_meta> Kalisto: it doesn't mount... it just doesn't work... the only output in demsg is "card inserted" and "registering new device"
[09:23] <clearzen> IntuitiveNipple: Is bzip ok? or do you want it gziped?
[09:23] <sileni> ..
[09:24] <sileni> it is not working :(
[09:24] <Dabaconboy> kjellviz: try this for your webcam http://monkeyblog.org/ubuntu/installing/ its a guide to install ANYTHING
[09:24] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen: Any will do :)
[09:24] <Kalisto> bruenig,automatix. show me an example where it "broke" a system
[09:24] <jason_> i dont konw whats wrong then maybe some one here can tell ya
[09:24] <IntuitiveNipple> I suggest uploading it to http://www.yousendit.com/
[09:24] <pietro10> Does anyone know how to get Lazarus on Ubuntu?
[09:24] <Kalisto> private_meta, well do you want a magic fary to mount it for you?
[09:24] <bruenig> Kalisto, it broke mine
[09:24] <nikin> IntuitiveNipple: yep.. point one out... or if you have 30 minutes.. i create my own webserver
[09:24] <Kalisto> bruenig, how?
[09:24] <Kjellviz> Dabaconboy: thanks im digging straigth into that!
[09:24] <sileni> jason_: wait should i use ns7-gcc29 or ns7
[09:24] <Dabaconboy> kjellviz: nps mate
[09:24] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen: nikin: On yousendit set the email to bios@tjworld.net please
[09:25] <cr3_> i'm trying to configure using 'pwnconfig' and after tests is says "select (1-n):" what am i  supposed to select/type there?!
[09:25] <bruenig> Kalisto, I just went through the list of things to install and afterwards everytime I tried to aptitude remove anything, it would include nearly the entire system as being removed along with it
[09:25] <Kalisto> private_meta, find out what device its under /dev/hd or whatever then mount that
[09:25] <wols_> sileni: you need a 32bit browser. there is no 64bit sun java
[09:25] <private_meta> Kalisto: actually, i kinda do, 'cause there is no device that i've found that works when mounting it
[09:25] <jason_> kalisto automatix does have good programs but when u install all the media coedc from there it mess up the system it install codec u dont need
[09:25] <backblue> hi, it's there any way, to mount nfs volumes, without editing by hand, /etc/fstab?
[09:25] <sileni> wols_: what do you mean by that
[09:25] <sileni> wols_: what am i doing wrong ?
[09:25] <clearzen> IntuitiveNipple: If you want I can rsync it to you
[09:26] <pietro10> blackblue: as in Windows volumes?
[09:26] <jonaskoelker> backblue: the `mount' command?
[09:26] <wols_> sileni: I mean there is not 64bit java from sun, period
[09:26] <Tru7h> Here's my problem. I booted up a live CD of Fiesty, and I found out that it will only boot in safe graphics mode and it won't work with my LCD screen at all. It will only work in safe graphics on my old CRT. If I have my LCE in my monitor displays a "Cannot display this video mode" error. Any way I can fix that?
[09:26] <bruenig> Kalisto, the theoretical problems with it are glaring, that it forces yes on every answer, that it doesn't give you output to know what is going on just in case its automatic yes on the first option instead of picking the correct or better one breaks something
[09:26] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen: Join me in #TJ
[09:26] <backblue> pietro10:  no, i want to mount, everytime i start.
[09:26] <sileni> wols_: ..am i using 64? im so lost i thought iam running 32 bit computer
[09:26] <pietro10> Tru7th: I had a different problem with my LCD
[09:26] <Kalisto> bruenig, you cant read scripts?
[09:26] <backblue> but yes, like windows volumes
[09:26] <wols_> sileni: I asked you are you running amd64 and you said yes
[09:26] <pietro10> !ntfs | backblue
[09:26] <ubotu> backblue: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[09:26] <backblue> jonathaN: ?? i want a gui.
[09:26] <nikin> pietro: download from sourceforge and install
[09:26] <backblue> pietro10: not NTFS, NFS!
[09:27] <pietro10> o
[09:27] <pietro10> then that isn't windows
[09:27] <sileni> wols_: well there is a thing on my laptop that says amd..i thought that was it ..this laptop is like 4 years old
[09:27] <backblue> no its not.
[09:27] <bruenig> Kalisto, I could read it initially, now it is so modular that it is near impossible, but you have to realize that there are often times when you install something that if it conflicts with something on your system, that you have 3 or 4 different ways to go about doing it. It just picks the first one, you can't detect that through the script
[09:27] <Kalisto> private_meta, ok do this for me. unplug the device, plug it in and copy the message to www.rafb.net/paste
[09:27] <pietro10> Do a search in synaptic for nfs
[09:27] <pietro10> or network file system
[09:28] <sdfasdfawef> any idea when thunderbird 2 is going to make it into the repositories?
[09:28] <ph8> sorry - i think i got disconnected - does anyone know a way of 'indexing' all your drives so that they are added to /etc/fstab for mounting on boot automagically?
[09:28] <private_meta> Kalisto: the one in dmesg?
[09:28] <_Codeman_> I'm using curlftpfs to mount my ftp account, I put the command in my init.d but it doesn't seem to have run (not really sure) and when I sudo it, the directory that it's supposed to mount to ends up gone... doesn't exist anymore :/
[09:28] <nikin> IntuitiveNipple: i sent it..
[09:28] <wols_> ph8: no. you simply have to edit /etc/fstab
[09:28] <Kalisto> private_meta, yes
[09:28] <bruenig> ph8, you need to add them yourself, unless you have an enormous amount of them, a script or something else would be kind of a waste
[09:28] <private_meta> Kalisto: actually, it's just two lines
[09:28] <ph8> just wondered :-) thx
[09:28] <pietro10> OK, so I am on sourceforge
[09:29] <Kalisto> private_meta, ok what are they?
[09:29] <wols_> clearzen: nothing in /etc/init.d/ is run. ever. to run it you need a symlink from some runlevel (rcX.d) back to init.d
[09:29] <pietro10> Is there any way to add the debs to the apt-get sources so I can use update manager on them?
[09:29] <wols_> _codeman_: nothing in /etc/init.d/ is run. ever. to run it you need a symlink from some runlevel (rcX.d) back to init.d
[09:29] <private_meta> Kalisto: as i said before, pcmcia card inserted in slot 0, and registered new device, pcmcia0.0
[09:29] <nikin> pietro: download fp-alldeb.tar and the lazarus deb
[09:29] <wols_> private_meta: is dmesg displaying anything?
[09:29] <Tru7h> I got it working. I just plugged in my LCD after I booted
[09:29] <Tru7h> It's good now
[09:29] <pietro10> Yes, but I want to use updatemanager on them so I need to add it to the list of repositories
[09:30] <Tru7h> If I install it will I have the same problem when I boot up?
[09:30] <eXpod> hello, is the add/remove package program thingy supposed to drop to around 3000 B/s?
[09:30] <wols_> eXpod: no
[09:30] <wols_> eXpod: it uses simple http or ftp.
[09:30] <PurpZeY> Tru7h: IMO, it's probably better to troubleshoot it now...just my take. then once you install, the fix is easy.
[09:30] <pietro10> eXpod: Go to System > Administration > Software Sources
[09:30] <private_meta> ok k
[09:30] <IntuitiveNipple> nikin: Thank you... I'll let you know when I've got it :)
[09:30] <private_meta> wols_, Kalisto: http://nopaste.info/275f1a9e99.html
[09:30] <_Codeman_> I got a lot of rc*.d's :/
[09:30] <pietro10> From the list at the bottom, choose the server closest to use
[09:30] <nikin> pietro: asfar as i know there is no debian repo for lazarus
[09:30] <eXpod> that sucks, it'll go for 60k then drops to 3k for long periods of time
[09:31] <Ares|Work> Hi, if i wrote a application how could i mkae it so it can be adding to the repositories?

[09:31] <wols_> private_meta: lspcmcia
[09:32] <wols_> Ares|Work: you need to make a .deb package out of it
[09:32] <pietro10> Should I use the fpc in the Universe or on SourceForge?
[09:32] <BlueBird22> nickrud - hi you there
[09:32] <Ares|Work> wols_: how would i go about doing that?
[09:32] <_Codeman_> wols_: to which rc*.d to I symlink?

[09:33] <nikin> pietro10: both plaaces have 2.04 as stable.. but i think the soureforge version is better couse it has not only FPC but a lot of othe stuff to
[09:33] <jason_> <Dabaconboy have u boot it in safe graphice mode
[09:33] <wols_> _Codeman_: run runlevel
[09:33] <pietro10> usr_rob: go to System > Administration > Users and Groups

[09:33] <pietro10> Select your name from the list, click Edit, and open the Privledges tab
[09:33] <nikin> pietro10: if in the universe repo there will be a newer version it will automatically upgrade the soureceforge one..
[09:34] <neun> wols_ u were the guy that helped me, thanks for the hint those -beta drivers work
[09:34] <wols_> private_meta: thereis notghing recongized. no device

[09:34] <BlueBird22> can any one help me with my modem? i just ran scanModem. (i have lucent/agere winmodem), i have the results now. what next?
[09:34] <usr_rob> pietro10: i have checked all there it won't help. i did chgrp robert /dev/sg0 , but it did not work either
[09:34] <_Codeman_> wols_: N 2
[09:34] <Kalisto> private_meta, not sure but try aptituding: pcmcia-cs
[09:34] <_Codeman_> so rc2.d?
[09:34] <pietro10> sudo chgrp robert /dev/sd0
[09:34] <pietro10> Or better yet sudo chgrp robert /dev/sd*
[09:34] <b0wlman> you learn so much from just reading :)
[09:34] <b0wlman> Cheer's people im learning fast
[09:34] <usr_rob> pietro10: i forgott to write sudo in here, of course i did :)
[09:35] <wols_> _Codeman_: so you have runlevel 2 as usual
[09:35] <Kalisto> private_meta, sorry no do: pcmciautils
[09:35] <private_meta> wols_: the card is inserted when i did lspcmcia
[09:35] <Kalisto> pcmcia-cs is old private_meta
[09:35] <jason_> <Dabaconboy what is ur cpu
[09:35] <eXpod> argh, Add/Remove Applications d/ls so slow but browser d/ls go at full speed. what can be wrong?
[09:35] <pietro10> OK, then /dev/sd0 is not your DVD drive
[09:35] <private_meta> Kalisto: i already have it installed
[09:35] <wols_> private_meta: I know. but look at the 2nd line in your paste
[09:35] <pietro10> Type mount

[09:35] <IntuitiveNipple> clearzen: nikin: Fantastic, thanks for your help, I have what I need now
[09:36] <usr_rob> pietro10: i get error message, cannot access /dev/sg0 , check user rights
[09:36] <wols_> eXpod: the repository at the other end is slow
[09:36] <clearzen> IntuitiveNipple: np
[09:36] <pietro10> Weird
[09:36] <_Codeman_> wols_: so I symlink to rc2.d?
[09:36] <macaronesico> can someone help me with the instalation of ubuntu 6 on a laptop; im receiving an error ide:failed iocide was:unknown
[09:36] <Dabaconboy> jason_: 1.4 athalon, 512 mb ram, 60gb hdd, 256mb graphics.........
[09:36] <usr_rob> pietro10: chmod 755 ?
[09:36] <wols_> _Codeman_: yes. but with the proper S?? in front of course. depending when you want to run it on bootup
[09:36] <pietro10> try that if it doesn't work then I don't know what will
[09:36] <sajt> I have a benq-siemens EF 81 mobile phone. I connected this width an USB cable. How can I copy some mp3 to the phone?
[09:36] <usr_rob> pietro10: okey, thx mate
[09:37] <wols_> sajt: does it act like a mass storage usb device?
[09:37] <pietro10> did it work?
[09:37] <sajt> wols_: I see it with the lsusb, but not mounted
[09:37] <matman> can anyone tell me what the difference between the 32 and 64 bit versions of ubuntu are?
[09:37] <_Codeman_> wols_: Thanks! I didn't even notice that :D
[09:37] <nikin> sajt: can that phone behave like an usbkey?
[09:37] <sajt> nikin: I think no
[09:37] <sajt> How can I mount this?
[09:38] <wols_> sajt: check dmesg. what does it say about it?
[09:38] <private_meta> wols_: i know it worked on win before i had to install ubuntu... i don't really know what i can do there...
[09:38] <Madsy> How can I schedule fsck to run at the next boot in Ubuntu Feisty?
[09:38] <Plankton> matman, the 64 version is for AMD Athlon64 and Intel's 64 Bit CPUs
[09:38] <nikin> sajt : does that phone have a memory card?
[09:38] <Kalisto> private_meta, maybe its not supported?
[09:38] <jason_> Dabaconboy go here  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=417842&highlight=BusyBox+v1.1.3+%28Debian1%3A1.1.3-3ubuntu3%29+Built+in+shell+%28ash%29
[09:38] <sajt> yes this have a memory card
[09:38] <Dabaconboy> thanks
[09:38] <wols_> private_meta: lots of shitty hardware has windows drivers but not linux ones...
[09:39] <ikonia> wols_: watch your language
[09:39] <BlueBird22> helo..
[09:39] <b0wlman> Hello
[09:39] <pietro10> hi again b0wlman
[09:39] <Kalisto> private_meta, what the manufacturer model?
[09:39] <clearzen> !botsnack
[09:39] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[09:39] <matman> Plankton, will either one work either one?  eg will 32 work on my new c2d macbook?
[09:39] <Kalisto> of the pcmcia device not the card
[09:39] <usr_rob> pietro10: working now
[09:39] <flowingfire> hi everybody... my computer says "no boot sector found please reboot."  What do I do?
[09:39] <cox377> can anyone recommend a decent .rar extracter with a progress bar?
[09:39] <wols_> matman: yes.
[09:39] <imbecile> hey guys, how can i make conky clear? and is there a way to disable window decoration for it  as well?
[09:39] <sajt> wols_: usb 1-4: new full speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address 3
[09:39] <pietro10> ha ha u/b/o/t/u
[09:39] <jrib> !rar > cox377 (see the private message from ubotu)
[09:39] <private_meta> Kalisto: i don't know, it came with the laptop, it's built-in
[09:39] <sajt> usb 1-4: configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
[09:39] <nikin> pietro10: are you intrested in the laz stuff? or you made it?
[09:39] <wols_> sajt: nothing like sda or such?
[09:40] <b0wlman> Connection = bad. im just hear to learn loads of stuff. from reading. best way to build up a OS knowledge IMO
[09:40] <Plankton> matman, i don't know which CPU is in the new mac Book
[09:40] <sajt> wols_ ohci_hcd
[09:40] <cox377> jrib: cheers mate
[09:40] <pietro10> Interested in it. I tried running it on my Mac OS X but it failed with a missing library that I KNOW is installed
[09:40] <Plankton> i would choose 32 bit
[09:40] <wols_> sajt: if not, it's not a mass storage device and probably not supported at all. did you have to use special benq software on windows to copy stuff over?
[09:40] <pietro10> So I am going to do it here
[09:40] <Plankton> Works under 64. too
[09:40] <matman> wols_ i read some nasty rumors that an over heating problems wit the 64 bit ubuntu
[09:40] <pietro10> So what is the dpkg command to install it all?
[09:40] <pietro10> I got the fpc-all
[09:40] <sajt> wols_: I do not have the software
[09:40] <wols_> matman: that makes no sense. overheating is a hardware failure
[09:41] <sajt> And first I like to use with ubuntu
[09:41] <matman> Plankton, c2d= core 2 duo= a 64 bit processor
[09:41] <clearzen> flowingfire: It sounds like a problem with the MBR
[09:41] <clearzen> !MBR
[09:41] <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
[09:41] <wols_> sajt: I didn't ask you that. I asked you if it does need special software on windows?
[09:41] <nikin> pietro: extraxt the tar file .... then cd in the deb directory and do "sudo dpkg -i *.deb"
[09:41] <H4XcOr> hi for all
[09:41] <pietro10> OK, that -i was what I needed
[09:41] <sajt> wols_: I think yes
[09:41] <Plankton> matman, i would choose 32 bit
[09:41] <pietro10> I'll check back with you when everything is hunkydory
[09:41] <matman> wols_ right, but the software tells the hardware when to turn that fan on to prevent overheating.
[09:41] <Plankton> works under 64, too....
[09:41] <wols_> sajt: if it does, then there probably is no direct support in ubuntu
[09:42] <Kalisto> private_meta, lspci -v | less and paste that
[09:42] <sajt> :(
[09:42] <private_meta> wols_: that's why i like windows... 99% of the stuff i had just worked... with ubuntu 50% of the stuff works if you're lucky, 25% you have almost no chance of getting it working and 25%... ah, screw that..
[09:42] <hc233> arklinux
[09:42] <Plankton> matman, I don't think that the useing of 64 bit is so big :)
[09:42] <Tiradin> Can anyone help me with Amarok?
[09:42] <wols_> matman: as a precaution all proper hardware runs the fan always unless the software tells it to shut off. or it is automatically controlled altogehter. the worst that can happen is faster battery drain since the OS doesn't help with powermanagement. that's all
[09:42] <joejoe300> hey again
[09:42] <flowingfire> clearzen: thanks for the ubotu info...
[09:43] <jason_> wel guys i be back later i hagoing to try some stuff ok
[09:43] <jason_> godd bye have fun
[09:43] <matman> Plankton, what does that mean?
[09:43] <clearzen> flowingfire: np, if you have other questions I'll be hanging out for a while
[09:43] <Kalisto> private_meta, its free for one.
[09:43] <wols_> private_meta: that is no failure of ubuntu or linux. failure of the hardware maker not writing drivers like they do for windows
[09:43] <Tiradin> Anyone?
[09:43] <ultm8> hey hey
[09:43] <matman> wols_ oh, ok, thanks
[09:43] <TakeOut{u}> private_meta, blame windows and their monopoly for alot of that
[09:43] <private_meta> Kalisto: i get windows for free
[09:43] <private_meta> Kalisto: legally
[09:43] <joejoe300> wols_: I just realized when I got into windows, if I fixmbr, I won't be able to get into linux
[09:43] <Tiradin> TakeOut{u}: here here :P
[09:43] <Kalisto> private_meta, how that?
[09:44] <eXpod> school?
[09:44] <wols_> joejoe300: as I told you
[09:44] <Plankton> matman, it means, that the software in Ubuntu isn't optimized for 64 completely
[09:44] <pietro10> OK, so it's asking me whether or not I install the one from the archive or the one in Universe
[09:44] <private_meta> Kalisto: msdnaa students licensing
[09:44] <cox377> i've copied a command into a text file, is there anyway to make that file executable upon opening?
[09:44] <matman> wols_ is there any speed difference that you know of? if not, then why did they make a 64 bit version? lol
[09:44] <sajt> wols_: Then I must to buy a card reader for it :( Thank for help
[09:44] <joejoe300> wols_: so I need to make sure linux is setup properly before I mess with the other OS
[09:44] <Kalisto> private_meta, and what will you do when your now longer a student?
[09:44] <nikin> pietro: do the one from the archive
[09:44] <wols_> joejoe300: you can edit your boot.ini to hand over to grub tho. but that is outside the scope of #ubuntu
[09:44] <TakeOut{u}> private_meta : we're so sorry
[09:44] <matman> Plankton, ah that is what i was getting at
[09:44] <pietro10> cox377: enter terminal and type "chmod +x <FILENAME>"
[09:44] <Plankton> okay^^
[09:44] <wols_> joejoe300: just keep a livecd or rescue cd around
[09:44] <KevinOman> did you know there's an ubuntu studio version out?
[09:44] <BlueBird22> can any one help me with my modem? i just ran scanModem. (i have lucent/agere winmodem), i have the results now. what next?
[09:44] <KevinOman> oops
[09:44] <pietro10> Or add .sh at the end in Nautilus
[09:45] <cox377> pietro10: cheers, let me give it a go
[09:45] <Kalisto> KevinOman, you lived in Oman?
[09:45] <_Codeman_> ok, no luck with the curlftpfs still, the directory doesn't exist :/
[09:45] <pietro10> Go to http://www.linmodem.com/ to see the instructions
[09:45] <joejoe300> wols_: when I type df in a console, i don't see my linux drive for some reaosn
[09:45] <Kalisto> KevinOman, ubuntu studio looks sweet
[09:45] <joejoe300> it doesnt list anything that is mounted on /boot
[09:45] <BlueBird22> pietro10 i got the scanmodem from the site. i dont know what next to do
[09:45] <matman> Plankton, i was wondering if there was a real difference b/n the 2, but i see that the 64 isn't as developed as of right now
[09:45] <wols_> joejoe300: unpossible
[09:45] <Kalisto> joejoe300, is it mounted?
[09:46] <wols_> joejoe300: you booted from it, didn't you?
[09:46] <joejoe300> yeah im booted from it
[09:46] <Kalisto> joejoe300, try fdisk -l;
[09:46] <wols_> then it is there
[09:46] <Plankton> matman, that#s what I wanted to say :D
[09:46] <wols_> joejoe300: what does the "mounted on" columnn say? any "/" there?
[09:46] <private_meta> hmm
[09:46] <joejoe300> wols_: there is a /
[09:46] <cox377> the trouble is with linux, it's like one big toy and you learn something new every day.. never get anythng else done lol
[09:46] <KevinOman> Kalisto: I know I have not a dvd though
[09:46] <joejoe300> for /dev/sda1
[09:46] <KevinOman> lol
[09:46] <pietro10> It's somewhere here
[09:46] <wols_> joejoe300: that is the drive
[09:47] <pietro10> http://linmodems.technion.ac.il/#basicdoc
[09:47] <joejoe300> but when I was installing ubuntu, sda was my internal
[09:47] <joejoe300> sdb was external
[09:47] <matman> Plankton, so does the 32 bit ubuntu still utilizes both cores in the processor?
[09:47] <private_meta> Kalisto: http://nopaste.info/4c00e7a38a.html <-- those are the two devices i found with PCI
[09:47] <joejoe300> could they have switched?
[09:47] <wols_> matman: yes
[09:47] <joejoe300> plus, i don't see an sdb at all
[09:47] <clearzen> matman: If you run the generic kernel it does
[09:47] <wols_> joejoe300: yes the can. udev is a prime suspect for thios
[09:47] <joejoe300> but my internal drive is visible (I can see files)
[09:47] <BlueBird22> pietro10 thx
[09:47] <clearzen> matman: You can tell with cat /dev/cpuinfo
[09:48] <Plankton> matman, taht is a Question, I can't answer...sorry
[09:48] <Tru7h> I have a question about the partitioner
[09:48] <matman> wols_, clearzen, thanks
[09:48] <clearzen> matman: sorry cat /proc/cpuinfo
[09:48] <pietro10> cox377: that's the trouble with unix
[09:48] <Stormx2> How might I find how many lines a certain command returns?
[09:48] <wols_> cox377: a ton of webservers on the internet run on linux
[09:48] <Kalisto> private_meta, and what are you sticking in the pcmcia slot?
[09:48] <pietro10> To get something done, you have to go to DOS' great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandpa
[09:48] <wols_> cox377: so there's a lot of work done with it
[09:48] <private_meta> Kalisto: nothing at the moment...
[09:49] <wols_> Stormx2:  | wc -l
[09:49] <Tru7h> I have an 80GB drive with an NTFS file system. It has 35GB free. I want to take about 25 GBs of that and partition is into an ext3 file system to install ubuntu on. Can I do that with the partitioner in the live CD install thing?
[09:49] <private_meta> Kalisto: the normal pcmcia slot has nothing in it, the card reader got the card in it
[09:49] <Kalisto> private_meta, then hows it not working if your not using it?
[09:49] <joejoe300> wols_: so I typed "grub-install /dev/sda1" and i got
[09:49] <clearzen> pietro10: Troll much?
[09:49] <joejoe300> cannot remove: permission denied
[09:49] <TakeOut{u}> matman, it depends on whether you're using an SMP kernel or not
[09:49] <pietro10> Tru7th: YES
[09:49] <wols_> Tru7h: yes
[09:49] <wols_> Tru7h: but defrag the windows drive first
[09:49] <pietro10> Just be sure to defragment the NTFS first
[09:49] <Kalisto> does the card reader work though pcmcia?
[09:49] <wols_> joejoe300: root prems needed
[09:49] <wols_> *perms
[09:49] <Tru7h> Okay. Do I have to do that that through windows?
[09:49] <wols_> Tru7h: yes
[09:49] <private_meta> Kalisto: yes, but it's built in... at least dmesg tells me that
[09:50] <pietro10> It's the ONLY way!
[09:50] <joejoe300> how do i relogin as root
[09:50] <joejoe300> when i set up ubuntu i only made one password
[09:50] <wols_> joejoe300: you don't. man sudo
[09:50] <matman> TakeOut{u} what is an SMP kernel?
[09:50] <PriceChild> !sudo | joejoe300
[09:50] <ubotu> joejoe300: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[09:50] <wols_> matman: one that can utilize more than one cpu or core
[09:50] <Tru7h> Okay, thanks Wols and pietro
[09:50] <clearzen> joejoe300: umm, logging in as root isn't recommended. But you can do it.
[09:50] <Kalisto> private_meta, when you stick the card in what does it say in /var/log/messages?
[09:50] <sajt> wols_: I heard about obex can I use this somehow for this phone?
[09:50] <matman> and the generic kernel is an SMP kernel, correct?
[09:51] <nikin> pietro10: any luck with laz?
[09:51] <mrvino> Does anyone know of a way I can tell Ubuntu to automatically shut down after the computer is idle for a certain amount of time?  (Note I want to shut the computer down completely, not sleep or hibernate)
[09:51] <arnoldk67> Hello, I'm rather new to Ubuntu. I have installed it on three computers. Now I have installed several additional packages on one machine. Do I have to install all the packages one by one on the other machines or is there a possibility to obtain al list of all packages and then use the list on the othes to install everything in one step?
[09:51] <TakeOut{u}> matman yes
[09:51] <wols_> sajt: pssibly
[09:51] <private_meta> what's the command for getting the last lines of a file?
[09:51] <sajt> wols_: But how?
[09:51] <pietro10> When it gets to the fpc core, dpkg is asking me if it should keep the Universe version or install the new one
[09:51] <PriceChild> arnoldk67, its possible... one minute
[09:51] <wols_> arnoldk67: apt-proxy
[09:51] <clearzen> matman: No, they enabled dual core support in all the generic versions. You don't need SMP anymore for that.

[09:52] <pietro10> OK thanks
[09:52] <matman> TakeOut{u} great!! then what the heck is the 64 bit version for?? lol
[09:52] <private_meta> Kalisto: well, it tells you exactly the two last line i gave you from the dmesg, found, registered
[09:52] <TakeOut{u}> matman : uname -a will tell you what kernel, etc you are running
[09:52] <joejoe300> so i installed grub on sda1 (the drive where linux system is mounted I hope)
[09:52] <pietro10> So that is the "package maintainer"?
[09:52] <private_meta> LjL: ah... yeah.... thanks
[09:52] <joejoe300> installation finished. no error reported.
[09:52] <DarthVader> hello
[09:52] <Enselic__> joejoe300: you should install on sda iirc
[09:52] <pietro10> hello darth
[09:52] <Plankton> hi darthVader
[09:52] <TakeOut{u}> matman, the 64 bit version allows you to address alot more RAM, and run utilize your 64bit processor if you have one
[09:52] <joejoe300> but now it says "this is the contaents of the device map /boot/grub/device.map" / and now has /dev/sda and /dev/sdb
[09:52] <wols_> mrvino: the hard thing will be to dtermine when it has been idle enough. "shutdown"  can shutdown the PC easily
[09:53] <joejoe300> so now there are two drives showing?
[09:53] <nikin> pietro: yes
[09:53] <joejoe300> whats the best way to know which is which?
[09:53] <Kalisto> private_meta, and /var/log/syslog?
[09:53] <pietro10> ok thanks
[09:53] <clearzen> matman: 64 bit doesn't have up to date flash and a lot of programs are a pain to get running properly though
[09:53] <DarthVader> I have upgraded recently a PPC ubuntu 6.x to 7.04 but somehow g++-4.0 has vanished from it, and when I use adapt to look for it and I can't even see it listed as installable .... where can I find it?
[09:53] <TakeOut{u}> yeah, as clearzen said, it has problems, i wouldn't run it if i didn't have to
[09:53] <pietro10> I don't think gcc 4 is ready for PPC yet then
[09:53] <DarthVader> ".. when I use adept ..."
[09:53] <wols_> matman: pure ubuntu is fine on 64bit. but as soon as you need any proprietary software, flash, java, drivers. it's starts to be a pain

[09:54] <speedemonV12> can anyone help me with triple booting?
[09:54] <matman> it's just that all i have worked with is the 32 bit ver
[09:54] <TakeOut{u}> DarthVader, you could try apt-get install build-essentials

[09:56] <wols_> sivik: to edit fstab: yes
[09:56] <matman> wols_ i just neede more info, all of the forums were very uninformative b/c they were just arguing.  i needed personal experience

[09:57] <private_meta> Kalisto: any idea?
[09:57] <sphear1> whats your favourite game?
[09:57] <wols_> sivik: it's already there. but don't use spaces, and there needs to be a comma after iso9660
[09:57] <DarthVader> could it be that g++4.0 was moved to another repository?
[09:57] <speedemonV12> hey. im a newb, and im trying to install ubuntu on a triple boot machine.. where do i put the bootloader that comes with ubuntu? what partition?
[09:58] <Kalisto> private_meta, well i dont know. maybe your missing the correct modules. find out what model it is and google it
[09:58] <sivik> ok
[09:58] <Kalisto> private_meta, it seems its only mounted half
[09:58] <sphear1> speedemonV12, the installer works it all out for you
[09:58] <wols_> sivik: sorry. no comma missing.
[09:58] <matman> wols_ i did not say i was experienced, but i'm not new.  i'm just upgarding to a processor that i've never had to deal with before.  just because i don't know about things that i have never needed to deal with does not make me "new"
[09:58] <wols_> look at this: /dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   iso9660 ro,user,noauto  0       0
[09:58] <wols_> similar to this but udf,iso9660 is right
[09:58] <joejoe300> wols_: sorry if this is a bit off topic, but if I copy menu.lst (grub) to c:\ (windows), and point boot.ini to this file by saying c:\menu.list="Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn" will that work?

[10:00] <wols_> joejoe300: looks ok. the important part is what to put in boot.ini
[10:01] <Pelo> ICQ, read up , it's been triggered before , ubotu doesn't repeat
[10:01] <joejoe300> wols_: but you said "no" when I asked about that line in boot.ini
[10:01] <sivik> wols_, what else should i try
[10:01] <wols_> speedemonV12: yes it's possible. but afaik ubuntu can't boot via EFI out of the box
[10:01] <wols_> joejoe300: you asked about menu.lst
[10:01] <joejoe300> i got it straight from the guide, except it seems that now grub uses menu.lst instead of grub.conf

[10:01] <ubotu> pietro10: PLEASE DON'T SHOUT! We can read lowercase too.
[10:01] <speedemonV12> sphear1: i checked the guides, and the guides all tell me to create partitions manually.. but i dont want to have to reinstall mac and windows.. i was going to create a third partition using ipartiton, and put ubuntu on it
[10:02] <speedemonV12> ubuntu's bootloader will recognize both osx and windows for me?
[10:02] <pietro10> yes i know that I'm just very happy that it works!
[10:02] <LjL> Ayabara: it isn't correct for two reasons at least (maybe mine is not really correct either, mind you)
[10:02] <Ayabara> LjL, I get "foo.zip" is not a directory
[10:02] <Ayabara> the same message I got for mine :-)
[10:02] <wols_> joejoe300: http://www.geocities.com/epark/linux/boot.ini.txt from that guide. do you see a menu.lst there? no, all you see is a grub stage1 bootsector in c:\linux.bin

[10:02] <LjL> Ayabara: first, you need to quote "*.zip", you can't just type it without quotation marks, because without quotation marks, it will be parsed by the *shell*, while you need *find* to parse it
[10:02] <Pelo> speedemonV12, when you instal it grub will scan available hdd for other os and make the apropriate entries in the boot menu
[10:03] <nikin> pietro :D
[10:03] <wols_> Pelo: not ona mac
[10:03] <pietro10> I think Windows Vista is a copycat of beryl too
[10:03] <private_meta> hmm
[10:03] <sphear1> speedemonV12: yeah, if you make sure you just have a spare chunk of contunious hard drive the installer will create a partition. Your other installes shouldnt be affected.
[10:03] <matman> Pelo, this looks interesting.  Thanks, i appreciate your help very much!
[10:03] <wols_> Pelo: macs cannot use grub
[10:03] <tru_`z24> WHen playing a video, i was asked to download codecs for totem, i did, and know the video plays, but the colors are a bit off.  Any known fix for this?
[10:03] <tru_`z24> know = now
[10:03] <pietro10> wols_: yes they can
[10:03] <LjL> Ayabara: second "mv ." after xargs would make xargs execute "mv . <filename>", while you want the other way round
[10:03] <private_meta> any idea what it means when i use cardctl and it says "segmentation fault(core dumped)"
[10:03] <wols_> pietro10: macs use EFI
[10:03] <pietro10> EFI is a firmware. EFI = BIOS
[10:03] <sivik> wols_, what am i doing wrong now
[10:03] <wols_> pietro10: since when can grub use EFI
[10:03] <PriceChild> pietro10, EFI is not a bios
[10:04] <wols_> EFI is the way a intel mac boots
[10:04] <LjL> Ayabara: as for it not being a directory - are you actually quoting *.zip?
[10:04] <pietro10> 1) Install rEFIt 2) Install Linux but use grub 3) It works.
[10:04] <Ayabara> LjL, yes. I ran the line you gave me
[10:04] <Pelo> later folks

[10:05] <BlueBird22> ltmodem-8.26b1tar.gz       2.6.n without SMP support
[10:05] <wols_> kazim59: it is not safe
[10:05] <thekidrio> kazim59, sortta a toss up I think
[10:05] <thekidrio> I have had zero problems though
[10:05] <kazim59> LjL: but still automatix ppl insist its safe..while we keep insisting its unsafe.. kind of war?
[10:05] <_Codeman_> I'm still having trouble getting curlftpfs to mount properly, every time I try to mount the directory I mount to disappears :/
[10:05] <pietro10> It lets you boot into Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, FreeDOS, and other OSs while using Mac OS X
[10:05] <LjL> kazim59: ours is the official Ubuntu support channel. their site is just their site, they're not officially linked with ubuntu.

[10:06] <kazim59> automatix had been bad ... but its better now...
[10:06] <LjL> !ndiswrapper > Heptofite    (Heptofite, see the private message from Ubotu)
[10:06] <pietro10> joejoe300: type mount
[10:06] <wols_> joejoe300: I'm not at your PC: I don't know. if the drive is mounted: run mount
[10:06] <sivik> Heptofite, ndiswrapper is easy to install, use a package manager (apt-get, aptitude, synatic)
[10:06] <kazim59> but i m not gonna use something i dnt get #ubuntu support.. (genius ppl in here.. )
[10:06] <bigmo1> use source also
[10:07] <LazyAngel> is anyone using svn version of amsn with antialiasing and tcl/tk 8.5? the tls wont work for me :(
[10:07] <wols_> kazim59: the important part is to stay away from all drivers in automatix
[10:07] <LjL> kazim59: maybe - at the very very least, it's [more and more]  unneeded, as we have always had the fine packaging system called "APT", and now we also have facilities for installing restricted drivers. so at best, it's redundant; at neither-best-nor-worst, it just keeps you from learning things that you will have to learn *anyway* sooner or later, to use Ubuntu; at worst, it breaks your system
[10:07] <wols_> LazyAngel: make a proper error report. "it doesn't work" isn't that
[10:07] <speedemonV12> pietro10: is it a problem that i already have os x and windows installed via bootcamp?
[10:07] <private_meta> ok... if i got an experimental driver for my sd-card reader... how can i find out how to install it? (linux beginner)
[10:07] <joejoe300> wols_: this is odd.. I dont see hdb anywhere, only hda (internal) and sda (external)
[10:08] <pietro10> No, that's not a problem
[10:08] <joejoe300> shouldnt it be hda and hdb
[10:08] <pietro10> But you can't use the Boot Camp loader to run other OSs
[10:08] <pietro10> You need rEFIt
[10:08] <wols_> joejoe300: what is hdb supposed to be?
[10:08] <Heptofite> sivik, what is the package name?
[10:08] <speedemonV12> right
[10:08] <wols_> joejoe300: no
[10:08] <joejoe300> wols_: external drive
[10:08] <speedemonV12> so if i install refit, it will come before the bootcamp loader?
[10:08] <wols_> joejoe300: sda is your external drive
[10:08] <LazyAngel> wols_: amsn ask to download tls, but fails. and i have tried to extract it manually to ~/.amsn/plugins/tls1.5 but without luck
[10:08] <speedemonV12> or is there something i need to do manually?
[10:09] <wols_> LazyAngel: extract it from where? and what is the exact error message?
[10:09] <sivik> Heptofite, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23490/
[10:09] <Heptofite> LjL, that link does nothing, i want ndiswrapper on x86, not amd64

[10:10] <lagrimo> good afternoon!
[10:10] <joejoe300> so the command i want to run would be "sudo dd if=dev/sda1 of=dev/hda2/linux.bin bs=512 count=1
[10:10] <joejoe300> ?
[10:10] <sivik> wols_, thats what my currently says
[10:10] <LazyAngel> wols_: from the file i download from sourceforge. and its not the extract that doesnt work. its that amsn doesnt find tls
[10:10] <LjL> Heptofite: well, then you missed the link to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/Ndiswrapper
[10:10] <Ayabara> pietro10, thanks
[10:10] <pietro10> !tell Ayabara about real

[10:11] <b^j> does anyone know how to specify the kernel version you want to install in the preseed file for an ubuntu install?
[10:11] <pietro10> You should have gotten a pm from ubotu (don't reply - he's' a bot)
[10:11] <speedemonV12> pietro10: so if i install refit, it will come before the bootcamp loader? or do i need to do something manually?
[10:11] <novato_br> what is the nautilus?
[10:11] <pietro10> b^j: it's always a BAD idea to use an old kernel
[10:11] <lagrimo> is there any program/plugin/whatever available to control/operate ubuntu/linux???
[10:11] <pietro10> novato_br: it is the default file browser in GNOME, the desktop
[10:11] <Sapote> hello!!! how many processors support ubuntu SMP 16? 32? 64? 128?
[10:11] <novato_br> gente oq eh nautilus?
[10:11] <joejoe300> wols_: where can i just save this linux.bin file so I can email it to myself and just copy it in windows?
[10:11] <kazim59> LjL: wow.. that sounds cool
[10:11] <harry_> if I do Ctrl+Alt+F1 and then do  'sudo /etc/init.d/gdm stop' that will completely turn off the gui, right?
[10:12] <pietro10> !admin | lagrimo
[10:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about admin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:12] <eXpod> is it possible to enable 1440x900 resolution?
[10:12] <LjL> harry_: right

[10:12] <pietro10> !preferences | lagrimo
[10:12] <lagrimo> what? pietro10 ?
[10:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about preferences - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:12] <wols_> joejoe300: you can't. it must be YOUR linux.bin aka grub stage1
[10:12] <wols_> can't be anoyne elses
[10:12] <b^j> pietro10: i want 2.6.20-15 instead of -16 as there are vmware-player modules for it, also these are systems that are going to be used not on the internet and for 2 days
[10:12] <pietro10> Sorry, that was a command to ubotu
[10:12] <pietro10> lagrimo: just go to System > Administration
[10:12] <LjL> b^j: are you sure there aren't vmware modules for -16? i think i saw them being installed, here
[10:12] <pietro10> b^j: it should still work
[10:12] <joejoe300> wols_: sorry I wasn't clear... I just mean, what can I type for the location of the output file
[10:12] <d> hey all. I'm having trouble configuring dual monitors. can anyone lend me some help?
[10:13] <wols_> sivik: your mount command is wrong
[10:13] <SanityInAnarchy> Does openntpd work for anyone (trying to sync to another openntpd server)?
[10:13] <joejoe300> im really confused by linux filesystem
[10:13] <wols_> joejoe300: output of what
[10:13] <sivik> wols_, what wrong with it
[10:13] <pietro10> !search dual monitor
[10:13] <ubotu> Found: oin, nvu, modeline, monitoring, xinerama, boot, dual-head, xen, dualhead, dual-boot
[10:13] <LjL> !pm the bot
[10:13] <lagrimo> and then pietro10 ??
[10:13] <ubotu> Please investigate with me only in /msg or in #ubuntu-bots (see also !Bot). Abusing the channel bots will only result in angry ops...
[10:13] <joejoe300> wols_ the command which generates the grub stage1 i guess
[10:13] <wols_> sivik: and now go away. I don't like to be insulted
[10:13] <sivik> wols_, is there some other way it needs to be accomplished
[10:13] <harry_> LjL: So is there a way to put my computer into a mode where it's queiter eg, no fan, but still on (not doing anything)
[10:13] <pietro10> All your instructions are there

[10:13] <pietro10> *commands
[10:13] <wols_> joejoe300: of can be anything you want. use linux.bin
[10:13] <zyclop> I'm running EMACS under X and the fontsize is too small. What can I do?
[10:13] <joejoe300> but where do i put it
[10:13] <wols_> of=~/linux.bin
[10:13] <b^j> pietro10: no, they wouldn't allow me to start vmware, i can check if my caching apt-server isn't pulling down updates properly but it has always worked in the past
[10:13] <joejoe300> will i see it if i just put /linux.bin
[10:14] <lagrimo> sorry, the correct question is: is there any program/plugin/whatever available to control/operate ubuntu/linux over voice??
[10:14] <mobutu> does virtualbox work
[10:14] <wols_> you put it in C:\ under windows
[10:14] <LjL> harry_: you can turn off the HD's. turning *off* the fans is not recommended at all, you may (if the hardware allows that) make them run slower.
[10:14] <LjL> harry_: what's your CPU?
[10:14] <wols_> windows needs to access it to use it, not linux
[10:14] <joejoe300> k here goes nothin
[10:14] <joejoe300> do i need to run it with root access?
[10:14] <joejoe300> i would guess
[10:14] <joejoe300> yes

[10:15] <lagrimo> is there any program/plugin/whatever available to control/operate ubuntu/linux???
[10:15] <jrib> lagrimo: what does that mean?
[10:15] <d> I've got two LCD monitors, both are suggest res @ 1440x900, but when I set up xorg.conf to use this res, only one monitor works.
[10:16] <lagrimo> i would like to plug in a micro phone and handle my system
[10:16] <lagrimo> open apps etc.
[10:16] <pietro10> Everything is in System > Preferences and System > Administration
[10:16] <pietro10> In your case, System  > Preferences > Sound
[10:17] <d> when I set them to a lower res (1280x800), they both work, but the res looks like crap
[10:17] <annihilus> does anyone know how to re-enable the menu bar in amarok after it has been disabled, I seem to have configured myself into a whole
[10:17] <lagrimo> well. I want to control my sytem with commands that i give through a microphone
[10:17] <joejoe300> wols_: cool so I have linux.bin
[10:17] <tomy-> hi anyone who can help me to install quicktime
[10:17] <lagrimo> my configuration is well
[10:18] <joejoe300> copied to ntfs drive
[10:18] <kazim59> hey.. i've intel accelarated graphics... on windows i've got a software bundled with intel motherboard that allows me to change special settings about my hardware...  is that possible on linux?
[10:18] <spudz> anyone have problems getting raw DV video off Sony Handycam with kino?
[10:18] <joejoe300> so I should just be able to edit boot.ini, fixmbr on internal drive, and should be cool?
[10:18] <jrib> !quicktime > tomy- (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:18] <lagrimo> is there already something available or do i have to develop this??
[10:18] <LjL> harry_: ok. try "man hdparm", and search for "standby". there are a few options to let you make the drive turn off on inactivity. you can make the options stay by editing /etc/hdparm.conf (though it's possible that your HD will just remember them).  as for fans, install "lm-sensors": it contains a "fancontrol" script which can control fan speeds based on sensor-detected temperatures. you need to run "pwmconfig" to configure it, and you should also make sure
[10:18] <wols_> joejoe300: before you reboot: keep a live cd handy. that's vrey important
[10:18] <LjL> you have working temperature sensors by running "sensors-detect"
[10:18] <joejoe300> wols_: thanks, i got one right here
[10:19] <joejoe300> appreciate it
[10:19] <joejoe300> hopefully im on my way
[10:19] <joejoe300> to learning linux
[10:19] <wols_> lagrimo: there is not good free speech reocgnition. ther eis ViaVoice for Linux tho, but it costs money. also: you cannot develop a speech rec engine
[10:19] <LjL> harry_: also, no init.d script is provided with fancontrol, so you will have to run it manually or make your own init.d script. BE CAREFUL anyway, since if fancontrol crashes or gets killed for any reason, and doesn't manage to restore full-speed for your fans, hardware damage may occur.
[10:19] <^Pho[T] on> guys, anybody tried to recompile the kernel for 2.6.20-16 and succeeded?
[10:19] <lagrimo> i will do ;)
[10:19] <lagrimo> at least i will try to do
[10:20] <^Pho[T] on> infiband gives a compile error
[10:20] <pietro10> ^Pho[T] on: you just need to run software update; it will do that for you

[10:26] <DarthVader> hmmm ... in fact I have the same issue on ubuntu x64 :(
[10:28] <speedemonV12> I am on a mac, and if i install refit, will it override the bootcamp bootloader, so that i can use grub from ubuntu? (I have windows and mac already installed, via bootcamp, and i created another partition for ubuntu using ipartition)
[10:29] <DrEddy> hi
[10:30] <zeroflag> something keeps killing my network connection.
[10:30] <mammoth> hola atodos
[10:30] <zeroflag> and that's a rather bad thing for a SERVER!
[10:30] <DrEddy> :-D zeroflag! :C
[10:30] <DrEddy> :D
[10:30] <zeroflag> any idea what might be the cause?
[10:31] <wols_> zeroflag: you give a rather bad problem description too. so I guess you and the server are even
[10:31] <DrEddy> ISP?
[10:31] <DrEddy> I need help
[10:31] <zeroflag> it's local.
[10:31] <_Codeman_> Can anyone help me install LUFS
[10:31] <zeroflag> it's currently in my VM...
[10:31] <zeroflag> I don't really know what cause it.
[10:31] <wols_> DrEddy: until you state your problem you won't get any
[10:31] <Pensacola> what did I do?
[10:31] <zeroflag> I got the VNC connection to work, started azureus, seconds later I got disconnected.
[10:32] <DrEddy> I got a problem with my Wireless card
[10:32] <DrEddy> wols: I know
[10:32] <zeroflag> everything dead, can't SSH, can't VNC, nothing.
[10:32] <zeroflag> just times out.
[10:32] <mammoth> hola
[10:32] <DrEddy> wols: it just takes me some time to write it down...
[10:32] <zeroflag> when I control the server itself, it tells me that it still is connected - but it can't really do anything.
[10:33] <DrEddy> I have Intel Pro Wireless 3945 ABG, so it is supported by restricted driver
[10:33] <wols_> it is supported if you get the firmware
[10:33] <zeroflag> it can ping itself through eth0, but it can't ping anything else...
[10:33] <DrEddy> what firmware?
[10:33] <wols_> zeroflag: it's a vmware problem
[10:34] <wols_> looks like their LAN service is broken/crashed
[10:34] <wols_> DrEddy: it is supported
[10:34] <schilling> can anyone tell me why i can reach only ~32kbyte/sec inside my lan when transferring to my proftpd, using flash fxp, but reaching some mbytes from another machine running filezilla?
[10:34] <DrEddy> fine, then why it doesn't work, I can't see it in the connection window
[10:35] <FlashNet> hey does ubuntu server have postfix?
[10:36] <kitche> FlashNet: you can install it
[10:36] <nuu> FlashNet: sudo apt-get install postfix
[10:36] <wols_> schilling: flashxp throttling?
[10:36] <cr3_> hi, i've just finished configuring FANCONTROL, and it changes cpu fan speed every 10 seconds. I wonder if it won't exhaust fan, or damage it in some way?  is it secure to do that? SORRY for my ENglish, - I'm not native English speaker.
[10:37] <wols_> DrEddy: check dmesg. is the driver loaded?
[10:37] <illriginal> Does anyone have a good guide on how to speed up boot process and boost all around performance?
[10:37] <wols_> DrEddy: asp run /sbin/ifconfig -a. does the interface show up?
[10:37] <PurpZeY> cr3_: There are other channels, that have support in other languages...if it's easier for you.
[10:38] <DrEddy> slow down, wols, I'm not a PRO in Linux...
[10:38] <cr3_> :P
[10:38] <schilling> wols_, OMFG... you're right. stupid mistake. i just assigned this speedlimit some days ago to save bandwidth when uplaoding to the internet... totally forgot about it. thank u.
[10:39] <DrEddy> a?sp run /sbin/ifconfig -a - correct it
[10:39] <_Codeman_> How do I get kernel headers? I apt-cache search'd it but didn't find "kernel-headers-*" of any kind :/
[10:39] <wols_> also run "/sbin/ifconfig -a"
[10:39] <xeshire> derp...  are the repositories broken?
[10:39] <DrEddy> thx :)
[10:39] <wols_> _Codeman_: try linux-header
[10:39] <_Codeman_> wols_: Thanks :D
[10:39] <skar> hi, any one know of a way to find out how much of a process memory is shared and how much its own memory?
[10:40] <FlashNet> how do i add users in postfix?
[10:40] <DrEddy> wols: there are two connections, but both aren't WiFi
[10:40] <_Codeman_> One last thing... I don't remember which kernel I have, is there a command to display my current kernel version?
[10:40] <n2diy> _Codeman_: uname -a
[10:40] <simonkern> hi
[10:40] <jason_> 14684 frames in 5.0 seconds = 2935.745 FPS
[10:40] <_Codeman_> Sweet! thanks
[10:41] <mauricio> hi
[10:41] <wols_> skar: (almost) impossible
[10:41] <redbox> _Codeman_: uname -r will give you just the version
[10:41] <jason_> is that bad for glgear
[10:41] <BlueBird22> how to install ltmodem-8.31a10.tar.gz? from   http://www.heby.de/ltmodem/
[10:41] <wols_> jason_: glxgears is not a benchmark
[10:41] <cr3_> in any case,
[10:41] <cr3_> hi, i've just finished configuring FANCONTROL, and it changes cpu fan speed every 10 seconds. I wonder if it won't exhaust fan, or damage it in some way?  is it secure to do that? SORRY for my ENglish, - I'm not native English speaker.
[10:41] <wols_> BlueBird22: unpack it, look inside for docs
[10:41] <skar> wols_: so i can only the physical mem used and the virtual mem size, not how much of the physical mem is shared with other processes? like libc routines etc?
[10:42] <wols_> skar: not really imho
[10:42] <_Codeman_> thanks redbox :D
[10:42] <simonkern> I'm searching for a simple messenger, it should be like the net send (smbclient -m) command. It should only need an ip address
[10:42] <jason_> whne i try to play 3D games it say this them to install the OpenGL Python bindings and the GtkGLExt Python bindings.
[10:42] <skar> wols_: ok thanks for the pointer, i remember a command, just can't place it ;)
[10:42] <jason_> how do i do that
[10:42] <lynn_> join #edubuntu
[10:42] <Lam_> how do i get sftp to limit the bandwidth of the file transfer and resume an incompleted transfer?
[10:43] <dawn_chorus> where's the .trash folder on the directory tree?
[10:44] <ward_> i need to install gettext-devel for some application i want to compile
[10:44] <BlueBird22> wols_ docs are pretty messy. i cant understand them
[10:44] <ward_> wwhere should i get it from?
[10:44] <wols_> dawn_chorus: somewhere below ~
[10:44] <ward_> google gives me nothing but RPM links
[10:44] <FlashNet> will anyone help me setup my mta?

[10:45] <ward_> wols_, its not in the repos
[10:45] <wols_> simonkern: linux has no such command
[10:45] <elsni> Hi, i want to install ubuntu on an older laptop which a strange pcmcia cd drive. In kernel 2,.4 versions I nedded to pass the following parameter to have the cd drive recognized by the kernel: ide2=0x180,0x386  but that does not work for (k)ubuntu feisty. Is there a workaround?
[10:45] <FlashNet> will anyone help me setup my mta?
[10:45] <wols_> ward_: ubuntu is not a rpm disotr. there are no -devel packages
[10:45] <ward_> wols_, what should i do then when i need the devel package? is the normal gettext and gettext-base enough?
[10:46] <wols_> no it is not. apt-cache search gettext |grep gettext and you will see
[10:46] <wols_> FlashNet: ask a specific question not a "please do my work" one
[10:46] <simonkern> wols_: yes, but i'm searching for a programm that runs an every machine which should be reachable
[10:46] <LjL> cr3_: no, fancontrol is far from secure.
[10:46] <wols_> simonkern: talkd
[10:46] <bjl_> hello
[10:46] <ward_> wolki, then how should i install gettext-devel ?
[10:47] <hierro> hi all, is there a way to share folders inside a windows network? i mean i have 3 computers connected through an ethetnet switch, 2 running winxp and one (mine) runing linux and i want to share a folder...
[10:47] <ward_> oops wolki, wrong nick sorry
[10:47] <LjL> cr3_: it won't damage the fan by changing the speed - however, it might damage the processor by setting the wrong fan speed.
[10:47] <ward_> wols_, , then how should i install gettext-devel ?
[10:47] <wols_> simonkern: and it cannot work simply with IP. Linux is a real multiuser system. you need a user too
[10:47] <neverblue> sound issues, how can I tell it an app still has a lock on my ALSA device?
[10:47] <wols_> ward_: you don't since it doesn't exist. I told you what to do
[10:48] <kane77> I guess in kde the clocks have setting to show time in words and you have setting of fuzziness... is anything like that for gnome?
[10:48] <wols_> ward_: what file (header) do you need exactly?
[10:48] <hierro> help please
[10:48] <ward_> wols_, ahaaaa, so it IS enough to have gettext and gettext-base :-)
[10:48] <neverblue> !ask hierro
[10:48] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ask hierro - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:48] <wols_> neverblue: lsof or fuser
[10:48] <ward_> wols_, thanx for the help
[10:48] <hierro> hi all, is there a way to share folders inside a windows network? i mean i have 3 computers connected through an ethetnet switch, 2 running winxp and one (mine) runing linux and i want to share a folder...
[10:48] <neverblue> fuser
[10:48] <silvertip257> anyone experienced with creating/customizing live cd isos ?
[10:48] <neverblue> never heard of that one
[10:48] <wols_> ward_: in the future: all dev packages end with -dev
[10:49] <neverblue> i dotn think I can use lsof
[10:49] <_Codeman_> http://pastebin.tj-coding.com/15 <- can anyone tell my why module-assistant wont compile lufs?
[10:49] <wols_> hierro: samba
[10:49] <neverblue> but ill give it a try
[10:49] <neverblue> thanks
[10:49] <ward_> wols_, but there is no -dev package from gettext !
[10:49] <d_root> anyone familiar with Twinview can help out?
[10:49] <wols_> ward_: yes, mea culpa. just saw that
[10:49] <hierro> wols_ samba? it sounds old to me
[10:49] <cr3_> LjL: i know but I'm asking whether changing speed so many times can make shorter "life" of the fan :P i regret for my English :P
[10:49] <hierro> wols_ anyway thank you
[10:49] <wols_> !info lufs
[10:49] <ward_> wols_, ok so its not needed if there is no -dev package?
[10:49] <Pokit> Anyone here installed steam with wine?
[10:49] <shiftplusone> hey, can someone please tell me if there is a way to find out what's using the soundcard?
[10:49] <ubotu> Package lufs does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[10:50] <HungryCakes> Anyone here have experience with Azureus in 7.04?  I can't get it to download for more than a few minutes
[10:50] <wols_> ward_: probably not. I actually don't know. I asked you something you didn't answer
[10:50] <blue42> hierro: you're using gnome? should be an option somewhere to set filesharing on
[10:50] <shiftplusone> I set everything up to use ESD, but xmms is complaining that something is blocking the sound card.
[10:50] <Pokit> I cant see any text on the steam menu. any clue why?
[10:50] <elsni> I want to install ubuntu on an older laptop which a strange pcmcia cd drive. In kernel 2,.4 versions I needed to pass the following parameter to have the cd drive recognized by the kernel: ide2=0x180,0x386  but that does not work for (k)ubuntu feisty. Is there a workaround? Have the parameter changed in newer kernels? Please help! Thanks in advance!
[10:50] <Pokit> do i have to install certain fonts?
[10:50] <hierro> blue42, i tried to find it...
[10:50] <wols_> _Codeman_: there is no error in your pasting. show us the lines with the error
[10:50] <xtreon_> anyone happen to know the name of the aplication that locks the sceen and turn the mouse curson into a padlock? I have inte installed but forgot the name :)
[10:50] <ward_> d_root its best just to ask your question about twinview, maybe someone knows the answer but doesn't call him/herself experienced
[10:50] <hwilde> cr3_, fan lifespan is measured in revolutions, so faster speeds will shorten the lifespan.  changing speeds too much will add a minimal amount of wear on the motor but not enough to significantly impact the lifespan
[10:51] <_Codeman_> wols_: sorry, its hard to copy from module-assistant :/
[10:51] <hierro> blue42, ops
[10:51] <hierro> blue42, here it is
[10:51] <_Codeman_> wols_: hold lemme get it
[10:51] <xtreon_> found it, xtrlock, really nice aplication =)
[10:51] <wols_> shiftplusone: use the proper output plugin for xmms
[10:51] <ditoa> hi all
[10:51] <wols_> shiftplusone: pray one for ESD is available
[10:52] <shiftplusone> wols_: I am using the ESD plugin and usually I can run mplayer and xmms at the same time without either one of them complaining
[10:52] <ditoa> i have a question that isnt just ubuntu related but linux in general but this channel has a lot of knowledgable people in it so i am hoping you dont mind :)
[10:52] <ditoa> other than samba where ways are there to mount a perminant network source?
[10:52] <shiftplusone> wols_: sometimes something else seems to hog the sound card without actually playing anything and I can't get it back until I restart.
[10:52] <HungryCakes> Anyone here have experience with Azureus in 7.04?  I can't get it to download for more than a few minutes.  I have my port forwarding set up correctly with a static IP address, but all downloads go to 0 kbps after a few.
[10:52] <kitche> ditoa: nfs
[10:53] <ditoa> does nfs work like samba?
[10:53] <ramatieg> Can anyone recommend a compression utility that can split archives into multiple parts and well supported on Windows (e.g. by 7-zip and IZarc)
[10:53] <wols_> shiftplusone: fuser, lsof
[10:53] <ditoa> i have nothing against samba, i just want to try something different is all
[10:53] <Lamego> ditoa, nfs is commonly used on unix systems, samba mostly to interface with windows
[10:53] <ward_> how's it possible that all of a sudden my screen is set at 256 colors? :s
[10:53] <shiftplusone> wols_: tried those, no output
[10:53] <ward_> how can i prevent such stuff from happening?
[10:53] <d_root> I've got two monitors which are supposed to run at 1440x900 res. When I setup xorg.conf at that resolution, only one monitor works. When I set up the monitors at 1280x800, both of them work. any ideas?
[10:53] <wols_> ditoa: it does the same thing mostly. smaba, nfs, afs all do
[10:54] <hierro> blue42, sorry, but...do you know what role does the network group play on a windows network? :D
[10:54] <ditoa> cool
[10:54] <ditoa> so i can mount a directory on a remote system and treat it like a local one?
[10:54] <shiftplusone> sudo fuser -vk /dev/dsp* and same with lsof.... no output
[10:54] <hierro> blue42, sorry, but...do you know what role the network group play on a windows network? :D
[10:54] <wols_> ditoa: yes
[10:54] <Lamego> ditoa, yes, you can do an nfs mount
[10:54] <minisrule192> Hello
[10:54] <caravel> hi all
[10:54] <wols_> ditoa: not fully but mostly
[10:54] <ditoa> fantastic! thank you very much i will go google how to use it :)
[10:54] <blue42> hierro, yeah, usually I right click My computer in windows, then look under the network tab
[10:54] <ward_> d_root, whats the maximum resolution of the monitors?
[10:54] <wols_> hierro: needed for browsing for example
[10:55] <blue42> usually, the name is listed there
[10:55] <blue42> you use that name
[10:55] <HungryCakes> Anyone here have experience with Azureus in 7.04?  I can't get it to download for more than a few minutes.  I have my port forwarding set up correctly with a static IP address, but all downloads go to 0 kbps after a few.
[10:55] <d_root> 1440x900
[10:55] <ward_> d_root, both?
[10:55] <ward_> (just to make sure)
[10:55] <d_root> ward_ 1440x900, they're cheapos. yes
[10:55] <hierro> wols_ its not enough to me, could you draw it?
[10:55] <d_root> ward_ they're both WXGA LCDs
[10:56] <ward_> d_root, weird, i have a similar problem with my tv out with both twinview an d clone
[10:56] <wols_> hierro: no. one cannot draw on irc. text only
[10:56] <zpidaz> I can't find anything about this on the web, but I tried to log on to my account in 7.4 and got a message saying I couldn't, and either I'd run out of disk space, or (can't remember) but to speak to my Administrator. Since I AM my Administrator, that's not much use! And it appears that root can't login from the Ubuntu login screen.... (!)
[10:56] <xtreon_> I have a reall problem that sofar noone has ben able to solve. When I acces the real terminal (ctrl+fX) the monitor shuts down and the keyboard stop working.. it has not always ben this way.. any sugestions?
[10:56] <ward_> lol wols_
[10:56] <ward_> (drawing)
[10:56] <hierro> wols_,  what a problem
[10:56] <_Codeman_> wols_: http://pastebin.tj-coding.com/16
[10:56] <blue42> here's a dumb qn, in irssi how to send private messages?
[10:57] <wols_> zpidaz: since you don't tell us the exact error we can't help you
[10:57] <preem_> K:o
[10:57] <wols_> blue42:  /msg nick text
[10:57] <ward_> d_root, i hope someone knows it (but it isn't much of a problem for me here)
[10:57] <wols_> blue42: you need to be identified to services on freenode o send msg here
[10:57] <ward_> d_root, if you get no answer you should check #nvidia
[10:57] <zpidaz> Could you help me if I could? I took a photo of it which I could probably decipher. I'm not going to reboot now...
[10:57] <illriginal> Does anyone know how to safely speed up the boot time, and boost up all around performance?
[10:57] <d_root> ward_ i'll try that
[10:58] <blue42> wols_... thanks!
[10:58] <hoelk> hmm anyone knows a scandisk like application for linux? gui would be best
[10:58] <zpidaz> Anyway, I hadn't run out of disk space.
[10:58] <wols_> _Codeman_: http://pastebin.tj-coding.com/16
[10:58] <blue42> tried it, freenode did indeed tell me I needed to be a registered user
[10:58] <d_root> ward_ i've tried setting up using only Xinerama, but didnt achieve better results that way either
[10:58] <xtreon_> Please? I have a reall problem that sofar noone has ben able to solve. When I acces the real terminal (ctrl+fX) the monitor shuts down and the keyboard stop working.. it has not always ben this way.. any sugestions?
[10:58] <ward_> d_root, they gave me great help there before

[10:58] <BlueEagl1> illriginal: Have you concidered another window manager?
[10:58] <hoelk> just to check an hd for bad sectors
[10:58] <hierro> wols_ ...it seems that this network group is not useful
[10:58] <ward_> d_root, what is Xinerama?
[10:58] <illriginal> Window Manager?... Uh no thanks :)
[10:58] <shiftplusone> ok, thanks anyway.
[10:59] <illriginal> I like how Gnome looks BlueEagl1
[10:59] <xtreon_> noone? damit this is killing me
[10:59] <d_root> ward_ it's similar to Twinview, but more universal, not limited to only nvidia drivers
[10:59] <BlueEagl1> illriginal: Then you must see if you're loading services you're not using like web server, mysql server, samba server and so on.
[10:59] <BlueEagl1> illriginal: If you are then you might want to concider uninstalling them or atleast deactivate them on boot.
[11:00] <ward_> d_root, aha good to remember
[11:00] <illriginal> would any of those stop me from using firefox, aim, xchat, etc... ?
[11:00] <HungryCakes> Anyone here have experience with Azureus in 7.04?  I can't get it to download for more than a few minutes.  I have my port forwarding set up correctly with a static IP address, but all downloads go to 0 kbps after a few.
[11:00] <wols_> hierro: it can be but it's mostly unneeded at least with samba
[11:00] <d_root> ward_ i think Twinview is better if you have an nvidia card
[11:00] <BlueEagl1> zpidaz: By default root cannot log in. Ubuntu uses sudo for all things requiering root.
[11:00] <ward_> d_root, i know, but its nice to remembe for other cards :-)
[11:00] <hierro> wols_ ok, thank you boy
[11:01] <d_root> ward_ for sure.
[11:01] <zpidaz> This was the error message: "GDM could not write to your authorisation file. This could mean that you are out of disk space or that your home directory could not be opened for writing.  In any case it is not possible to log in. Please contact your system administrator."
[11:01] <wols_> hierro: no problem kiddo
[11:02] <hierro> !kiddo
[11:02] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about kiddo - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:02] <wols_> zpidaz: press ctrl+alt+f1. log in
[11:02] <dyrne> zpidaz: alt-ctrl-f2 then login then type   'df -h'
[11:02] <hierro> wols_ what does it mean?
[11:02] <ward_> d_root, do u by any chance know if its possible to do twinview on 3 screens? (one TV)
[11:02] <wols_> and then run "df" and see if you have any room left
[11:02] <wols_> hierro: that you're a kid?
[11:02] <BlueEagl1> zpidaz: Sounds like a permissions error.
[11:02] <hierro> wols_ im 25
[11:02] <wols_> hierro: as I said: a kid
[11:03] <illriginal> BlueEagl1, is there a proper guide that tells me how to deactivate start up programs that I do not use, and also tell me what each program does?
[11:03] <Cowfood> hey how do i change listening port in vnc?
[11:03] <wols_> hierro: calling other people "boy" pressupposes they are kids. better don't do that
[11:03] <BlueEagl1> zpidaz: in your home directory: sudo chown -R yourusername:yourusername *
[11:03] <stefg> HungryCakes: the Azu-package from universe is known to be troublesome. I'd get the latest azureus from sourceforge and overwrite the azureus.jar from the package with the one from sourceforge. Delete your ~/.azureus dir after that, so that the new azureues starts from scratch
[11:03] <zpidaz> I'll try what you said. I can't think why there would be a permissions error. I hadn't been doing anything special...
[11:03] <ward_> wols_, i think he didn't mean it that way, his english doesn't sound native to me
[11:03] <wols_> !info rcconf
[11:04] <ubotu> rcconf: Debian Runlevel configuration tool. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.19 (feisty), package size 17 kB, installed size 112 kB
[11:04] <wols_> illriginal: use rcconf
[11:04] <dpak> Hello, all my players don't play the avi files correctly. I get sound, but just blank screen. Can somebody help me?
[11:04] <joejoe300> :(
[11:04] <d_root> ward_ i'm not sure, i'll bet someone has done it though. this is a good resource for multi-display stuff: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=221174
[11:04] <xeshire> is anybody able to run apt-get update ?  I'm getting a lot of errors lately
[11:04] <ward_> d_root, i was just curious, thanx for the link
[11:04] <joejoe300> so I messed around with boot.ini, got Ubuntu 7.04 Festy Fawn to show up, but it doesn't boot
[11:04] <stefg> dpak: did you use automatix do install the codecs?
[11:04] <PurpZeY> !automatix
[11:04] <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
[11:04] <illriginal> wols_ type that as a command into terminal?
[11:04] <wols_> joejoe300: error messages are a cool thing
[11:05] <wols_> illriginal: install it first
[11:05] <elsni> hi, where can I find a list of all possible kernel parameters?
[11:05] <rhkenji> Hi, Im new with linux.. ive been a windows user for a VERY VERY long time... i recently installed ubuntu and have experienced some problem.. can i ask here?
[11:05] <wols_> elsni: in the kernel sourecs in the doc directory
[11:05] <dpak> stefg: I don't think so. I added extra package from Add/Remove
[11:05] <hierro> wols_ ok...i will write this hint on my english learner notes
[11:05] <ward_> d_root, i think there are hardware limitation to do that though (3 screens)
[11:05] <wols_> rhkenji: yes you can. don't ask to ask, just ask
[11:05] <kitche> rhkenji: yes since this is the support channel
[11:05] <ikonia> rhkenji: just ask
[11:05] <BlueEagl1> illriginal: to deactivate startup programs I use rcconf
[11:06] <hierro> what a cold...
[11:06] <BlueEagl1> illriginal: As for what each one does google is your friend. :)
[11:06] <rhkenji> ok, my mouse and keyboard hangs (i dunno if its the system) after logging in
[11:06] <illriginal> BlueEagl1 yeah I just installed it and it's opened... I need to know how to use this :x
[11:06] <joejoe300> wols_: for now, can I just try to install the loader on the external MBR
[11:06] <d_root> ward_ you might be right, i think Xinerama is the way to go for more than 2 monitors
[11:06] <BlueEagl1> illriginal: You need to run it as root (sudo)
[11:06] <joejoe300> so that it at least boots properly when I boot from usb
[11:06] <zeroflag> every time I start azureus my network connection dies. any ideas?
[11:06] <kbrooks> how to say repeat every 5 minutes in a crontab?
[11:06] <illriginal> yep
[11:06] <illriginal> i am
[11:06] <BlueEagl1> illriginal: Just uncheck the programs you do not want/need to start at boot.
[11:06] <wols_> joejoe300: that makes no sense. if grub menu shows, the loaded is installed already and properly
[11:06] <wols_> *loader
[11:07] <joejoe300> wols_: grub menu shows, but no options work
[11:07] <rhkenji> it works at the login dialog but hangs as the system loads.. what could be the problem? I can move it for a while then it hangs just as everything completely loads
[11:07] <zpidaz> Thanks for all the advice, everyone. I'm going to reboot and try some of it :o) I am doing this from a new install, but would really like to go back to my old one because I spent a lot of time tweaking it...
[11:07] <stefg> dpak: then you don't have the right mpeg codec. i'd try vlc , and if it palys the file, it will tell you what format it ism so you can install the right gstreamer codec
[11:07] <ward_> d_root, yeah, one screen for the CPU :p
[11:07] <wols_> joejoe300: either you give me error messages or you stop asking
[11:07] <MonsieurBon> can I install apache and mysql-server so they don't start at bootup but only, if I start them manually? If yes, how do I do this?
[11:07] <illriginal> Hm... only 4 items... BlueEagl1, quick question! What's apport?
[11:07] <Cowfood> hey i need a link for a good ubuntu guide
[11:07] <rhkenji> it does that with the live cd or the properly installed one
[11:07] <elsni> wols_: Can I find the list of parameters somewhere without installing the kernel sources?
[11:07] <dpak> stefg: vlc doesn't do it either
[11:07] <ikonia> Cowfood: ubuntu.com
[11:07] <joejoe300> wols_: my bad, guess ill be back in a while (live cd takes soooo long to load)
[11:07] <jrib> Cowfood: help.ubuntu.com
[11:07] <ikonia> Cowfood: ubuntuforums.org
[11:07] <wols_> elsni: yes. google...
[11:07] <stefg> dpak: do have w32codecs installed?
[11:08] <wols_> joejoe300: yes it sucks but it's the only way
[11:08] <zpidaz> BTW, how come root can't login from the login screen? Even if you give root a password?
[11:08] <jrib> zpidaz: because it's a bad idea
[11:08] <wols_> !root
[11:08] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[11:08] <elsni> wols_: guess what I do for days....
[11:08] <joejoe300> wols_: wait I remember a bit
[11:08] <wols_> zpidaz: ubuntu has no root accound
[11:08] <joejoe300> if i select Ubuntu from ntldr, it just says
[11:08] <joejoe300> GRUB and then a space and hangs
[11:08] <dpak> stefg: let me check on my synaptic
[11:08] <MenZa> Right; I'm having some problems with my machine running Ubuntu 7.04; specifically net connection. I can't make this machine (my laptop) access its Apache installation, ping it or connect via ssh to it. Everyone else can. The machine is located at menza.dyndns.org (IP 80.161.96.3)
[11:08] <stefg> !w32codec | dpak
[11:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about w32codec - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:08] <joejoe300> no error message
[11:08] <zpidaz> Oh. I know how much damage root can do if it doesn't know what it's doing, but sometimes you just have to be root to fix things...
[11:08] <stefg> !w32codecs | dpak
[11:08] <MonsieurBon> Cowfood, www.ubuntuguide.org nothing official though!
[11:08] <ubotu> dpak: Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[11:08] <ikonia> joejoe300: ntldr can't boot ubuntu
[11:08] <wols_> elsni: what exactly do you need to know. any driver can be given parameters via kernel commandline
[11:09] <zeroflag> every time I start azureus my network connection dies. any ideas?
[11:09] <joejoe300> ikonia: ntldr trying to boot grub
[11:09] <ikonia> zpidaz: you don't break things if your not root
[11:09] <ikonia> joejoe300: not a good idea
[11:09] <wols_> zpidaz: you don't need to be root.ever. even if it's sometimes handy
[11:09] <foug_> anyone know the command for bittornado? trying to add it to the "Open With" menu
[11:09] <jrib> zpidaz: you never need to log in as root in the gui to do anything, I can't think of a single good reason
[11:09] <dpak> stefg: Ok. Thanks. I will try that.
[11:09] <wols_> joejoe300: ntldr booting grub is already working when you get the menu with thekernels. that is not your problem
[11:09] <joejoe300> wols_: but if I boot from the drive, grub lists properly
[11:09] <joejoe300> wols_: but i dont get a menu with kernels from ntldr
[11:09] <wols_> ah.
[11:09] <joejoe300> i get it only if i boot directly from external drive
[11:09] <illriginal> Nevermind, I got it :D
[11:09] <wols_> still. error messages then
[11:10] <alex__> could anyone help me with a little problem a have with the resolution on my computer'
[11:10] <joejoe300> no error msg from ntldr
[11:10] <joejoe300> just "GRUB "
[11:10] <joejoe300> and hangs
[11:10] <ikonia> joejoe300: its not good to do it that way
[11:10] <elsni> wols_: I need to know how to tell the ide drive to take a non-standard adress. In 2.4 kernels it worked for me with ide2=0x180,0x386 - bit that has no effect in recent kernels
[11:10] <zpidaz> wols: What if the login screen tells you to go and speak to your administrator? How does your administrator sort out the problem? Particularly if you ARE the administrator? :o)
[11:10] <hierro> zpidaz you can do sudo passwd root,  to create you root password, so that you can become root with a terminal...
[11:10] <wols_> it can't find its stage2 then
[11:10] <joejoe300> ikonia: can you suggest a better alternative?
[11:10] <ikonia> zpidaz: the administrator knows how to not break things
[11:10] <zpidaz> hierro: Not if you can't login at the login screen...
[11:10] <ikonia> joejoe300: use grub instread of ntlldr
[11:11] <BlueEagl1> zpidaz: Have you tried changing the permissions to the files in your home directory?
[11:11] <wols_> zpidaz: I told you waht to do before. feel free to ignore it. speak again to me if you don't ignore it
[11:11] <joejoe300> ikonia: I want ubuntu installed on this external drive though
[11:11] <wols_> ikonia: he cannot
[11:11] <hierro> zpidaz, why do you want to login as root if can run any command as root by terminal?
[11:11] <wols_> ikonia: unless grub can load stage 2 from ntfs now
[11:11] <ikonia> joejoe300: why can't you install ubuntu on the external drive ?
[11:11] <joejoe300> and i want windows to work even when i dont have the drive attached
[11:11] <alex__> i cant choose any resolution higher than 800x600, i tryed to add larger into the xorg file but i still cant choose any of them
[11:11] <jrib> !fixres > alex__ (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:11] <wols_> ikonia: he can. but it then won't work when the external drive is not connected...
[11:11] <joejoe300> ikonia: ubuntu is installed on the external, but if i unplug it grub cant load stage2
[11:11] <ikonia> joejoe300: your pretty screwed then
[11:12] <ikonia> joejoe300: yes, I see what your saying
[11:12] <ikonia> and wols_
[11:12] <wols_> ikonia: he isn't. it's tricky but doable
[11:12] <p1ls> where is gnome-startup file
[11:12] <joejoe300> thanks wols_!
[11:12] <hierro> zpidaz, log as you, then open a terminal and run the command to create your root password...after you can do su root and the you have all the power you ever wanted
[11:12] <ikonia> wols_: yes it is do-able but very rarley works and sort of not worth the effort
[11:12] <ivx> hey i'm trying to burn some mp3s to a cd and it goes through preparing media part then gets an error that say writing to disc failed. where can i go to see more info, unless someone knows from that. i'm on 7.04
[11:12] <zpidaz> hierro: Because I want to be able to log in as myself, and don't know enough to fix the problem. But I will try what I was advised to, and come back later and report. Just wondered why root couldn't log in...
[11:12] <p1ls> where is gnome-startup file
[11:12] <BlueEagl1> p1ls: Are you looking for /boot/grub/menu.lst perhaps?
[11:12] <desmond> hi, can some1 help me format my secondary driver under linux? i want to get a fat partion on it
[11:12] <zpidaz> hierro: No, that doesn't work. I tried it. Will be back later.
[11:13] <p1ls> no, i want to add programs to start when gnome starts
[11:13] <hierro> zpidaz it works
[11:13] <BlueEagl1> desmond: gparted is quite handy for managing partitions.
[11:13] <jrib> p1ls: ~/.config/autostart/  has the programs you add to startup in your session.  Just use system > preferences > Sessions > startup
[11:13] <wols_> p1ls: use ~/.xsession
[11:13] <joejoe300> ikonia:  what about just having grub on the external MBR and boot from usb for linux.... and dont use ntldr at all?
[11:13] <p1ls> thanks
[11:13] <joejoe300> err wols_
[11:13] <Tobster> Is there an IRC were I can ask about JavaScript? and is this the 'class room'?
[11:13] <desmond> blue: ok i will try
[11:13] <ikonia> joejoe300: that would work
[11:13] <wols_> joejoe300: cannot work. no stage2
[11:13] <ikonia> joejoe300: yes it would if grub is on the usb device
[11:13] <wols_> joejoe300: oops. it will work, but it is a hassle
[11:13] <joejoe300> isnt stage2 on the external already?
[11:13] <ikonia> and you boot direct from usb
[11:14] <jrib> Tobster: ##javascript
[11:14] <SlimeyPete> Tobster: the ubuntu classroom is in #ubuntu-classroom iirc
[11:14] <joejoe300> wols_ more of a hassle than ntldr booting grub?
[11:14] <joejoe300> is there a way for me to set grub to be more verbose
[11:14] <wols_> joejoe300: different one. it is a hassle forever. installing ntldr+grub is a onetime hassle
[11:14] <joejoe300> currently no error code
[11:14] <wols_> your pick
[11:14] <ikonia> joejoe300: no
[11:14] <Tobster> Hi is there an IRC were I could ask about JavaScripy?
[11:14] <ikonia> Tobster: not here
[11:14] <jrib> Tobster: ##javascript
[11:14] <wols_> Tobster: you've been told already
[11:15] <wols_> Tobster: #web too
[11:15] <ikonia> why is asking where to ask anything to do with ubuntu
[11:15] <joejoe300> wols_: of course I like the one time thing, but im not sure what to do without an error code
[11:15] <joejoe300> any idea what I can change for grub to load?
[11:15] <Tobster> I new to IRC so sorry
[11:15] <ikonia> this channel is busy enough without that
[11:15] <joejoe300> is my linux.bin messed up?
[11:15] <wols_> the problem is the same: grub can't find its stage2 for some reason
[11:15] <ikonia> linux.bin ?? there is no such thing
[11:16] <joejoe300> ikonia: thats the stage1 that ntldr reads
[11:16] <wols_> ikonia: it's a grub bootrecord (512 bytes). it's how one can boot linux via ntldr boot.ini
[11:16] <ikonia> shees talk about making a mess of things
[11:16] <joejoe300> wols_: could it be the external isnt mounted
[11:16] <joejoe300> ?
[11:16] <ikonia> it doesn't get mounted
[11:16] <wols_> isthatall: yes it is your linux.bin, but it's also the usb bootrecord since both are the same
[11:16] <ivx> is this working can anyone see me?
[11:16] <ikonia> ivx yes
[11:17] <wols_> no it is mounted. but has a different number in bios than when you installed grub
[11:17] <desmond> blueeagl1: thx it worked perfect, going to reboot and will try it
[11:17] <mas> salut
[11:17] <ikonia> wols_: I'll bet its the "hd0" style mapping
[11:17] <ivx> ikonia, thanks
[11:17] <joejoe300> wols_:  hrmm if they're the same, if i fix one the other will work?
[11:17] <ikonia> as the usb device will assume a random number due to it not being static on the bus
[11:17] <BlueBird22> nickrud you there?
[11:17] <bobsumone> question, I would like to set up my Ubuntu Server as a router for my network, can someone tell me what I need to look up to do it securely?
[11:17] <lusepuster> hi folks... I've been trying to compile the experimental linux-uvc drivers but have no idea how/where to install them - any ideas?
[11:17] <wols_> joejoe300: you fix the bootrecord by properly installing grub /the tricky part) and then recreate the linux.bin from that again
[11:17] <wols_> and that until it works...
[11:18] <ikonia> bobsumone: there is a guide on the ubuntu wiki
[11:18] <dyrne> bobsumone: ive heard firestarter lets you pretty much setup ics and stuff
[11:18] <bobsumone> ICS?
[11:18] <wols_> lusepuster: make install doesn't work?
[11:18] <novato_br> os problemas parecem naum acabar
[11:18] <novato_br> ki saco
[11:18] <joejoe300> wols_: did I improperly install grub before?
[11:18] <shiftplusone> hey, I came crawling back, I thought I could restart and have my sound card back but it still says it is being used. It was working fine just 5 minutes ago. Can someone please help?
[11:18] <dyrne> bobsumone: internet connection sharing
[11:18] <bobsumone> ikonia: what should I reference on the ubuntu wiki?
[11:18] <wols_> dyrne: we are not in windows. there is no ics
[11:18] <wols_> joejoe300: yes
[11:18] <bobsumone> dyrne: ah, lol
[11:18] <ikonia> bobsumone: network router, proxy
[11:18] <wols_> bobsumone: install ipmasq
[11:19] <bobsumone> ikonia: I will need a firewall as well....
[11:19] <wols_> !info ipmasq
[11:19] <ubotu> ipmasq: securely initializes IP Masquerade forwarding/firewalling. In component universe, is extra. Version 4.0.8-2ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 76 kB, installed size 616 kB
[11:19] <dyrne> wols_: there is if i use the term enough :)
[11:19] <bobsumone> im trying to make sure I don't miss anything
[11:19] <wols_> bobsumone: no you don't need one
[11:19] <ikonia> bobsumone: that will be included in the guide
[11:19] <bobsumone> yeah I know about masking
[11:19] <bobsumone> ok
[11:19] <kitche> bobsumone: iptables is the firewall which firestarter is a frontend to
[11:19] <lusepuster> wols_ : there is no such option. It compiles and ends up w some .o and .so files that i guess should be placed in some folder, but I don't bnow which, and I don't know if the system automagically detects them them or what
[11:19] <bobsumone> keep in mind im on server, so I don't have GUI
[11:19] <wols_> lusepuster: .so files are shared libs
[11:20] <wols_> lusepuster: put them in /usr/local/lib/
[11:20] <ikonia> lusepuster: if you are using experimental stuff you should a.) read the docs b.) have a base understanding of that your doing
[11:20] <bobsumone> speeking of which, is there a text only web browser on server that I can use to access SWAT and other options?
[11:20] <wols_> bobsumone: use ipmasq then. firestarter is X only
[11:20] <ikonia> lynx
[11:20] <bobsumone> ok
[11:20] <wols_> bobsumone: lynx, links, links2
[11:20] <KomiaPoika> hi
[11:20] <CineScope> or elinks
[11:20] <bobsumone> ty
[11:20] <wols_> bobsumone: for a router dnsmasq is very handy too
[11:21] <KomiaPoika> why is there no pidgin package?
[11:21] <bobsumone> im actually getting help this time
[11:21] <bobsumone> w00t
[11:21] <kitche> KomiaPoika: it wasn't out when feisty was released
[11:21] <PurpZeY> KomiaPoika: It's rather easy to compile
[11:21] <KomiaPoika> yea, but buggy
[11:21] <novato_br> i'm on feisty, what's going on?
[11:21] <lusepuster> ikonia - I think I in many ways have a pretty good undertanding of the system, and... there really are no docs, they only say 'compile these modules and install them'
[11:21] <ikonia> novato_br: support
[11:21] <PurpZeY> KomiaPoika: I've done it twice without issue, but that's just me
[11:21] <KomiaPoika> i can't log on msn from home (but i can from the office) using self compiled gaim, on the same laptop
[11:21] <MrObvious> Is there a way to get 54 Meg speeds with the BCM43xx driver?
[11:21] <KomiaPoika> why other computers on the same lan can log on to msn
[11:22] <novato_br> here, i wasn't get one connection
[11:22] <ikonia> lusepuster: so install them
[11:22] <KomiaPoika> while*
[11:22] <novato_br> but i'd learned: "sudo dhclient eth0"
[11:22] <joejoe300> wols_: so I run sudo grub-install /dev/sdb1 ?
[11:22] <novato_br> it's works
[11:22] <novato_br> but when i need to restart my ubuntu
[11:22] <joejoe300> sdb1 = external
[11:22] <lusepuster> ikonia - that's the question. I have only a faint idea where they are going.
[11:22] <ikonia> KomiaPoika: because you built gaim from scratch you have probably missed the ssl specific libraries
[11:22] <wols_> joejoe300: does /dev/sdb actually exist?
[11:22] <novato_br> it is not save the configurations
[11:22] <ikonia> lusepuster: ask the maintainer
[11:23] <joejoe300> yeah usb is sdb when i boot from liveCD
[11:23] <dogmeat> what entry do i add to the sudoers file so that user 'jay' and sudo?
[11:23] <xtreon_> Please? I have a reall problem that sofar noone has ben able to solve. When I acces the real terminal (ctrl+fX) the monitor shuts down and the keyboard stop working.. it has not always ben this way.. any sugestions?
[11:23] <wols_> joejoe300: you need to chroot to it first
[11:23] <dogmeat> 'jay' can sudo
[11:23] <joejoe300> chroot?
[11:23] <joejoe300> does that set root provilages?
[11:23] <wols_> mount /dev/sdb1 somwhere and then chroot to that
[11:23] <mayorbuttes> joe joe: chroot changes your root directory, I believe.
[11:23] <lusepuster> ikonia - I could, Just wanted to try out if anyone here had any experiance w them. It's webcam drivers so they shouldn't f*** up the system completely
[11:23] <wols_> no it does not
[11:23] <wols_> man chroot
[11:24] <ikonia> lusepuster: there is no need for the bad language
[11:24] <joejoe300> the drive is mounted
[11:24] <joejoe300> i can see it in places->computer
[11:24] <KomiaPoika> ikonia: no, i can log on msn from the office, with the same laptop, but i fail to connect from home, while other computers on the lan can log on msn using gaim2
[11:24] <ikonia> lusepuster: this is an ubuntu support channel, nothing to do with your external packages. I suggest you contact the maintainer
[11:24] <joejoe300> its called disk
[11:24] <ikonia> KomiaPoika: I suspect in the office your using the proxy
[11:24] <n2diy> Are there any casino games for Ubuntu, didn't find much with google or synaptic?
[11:24] <joejoe300> wols_: so then I type "chroot /dev/sdb1" ?
[11:25] <KomiaPoika> ikonia: am not, at the office i'm on the external adsl
[11:25] <ikonia> KomiaPoika: check the gaim logs then
[11:25] <wols_> joejoe300: no. it's not mounted on /dev/sdb1. run "mount" to find out where
[11:25] <ikonia> your current network maybe doing packet mangling
[11:25] <KomiaPoika> when i try to log on msn from this laptop from home, i kick myself on other computer, so it means it does some connect, but it hangs on the connecting part
[11:25] <klav> I'm trying to edit system file from terminal - with sudo but when trying to save it denies me :( any ideas?
[11:25] <joejoe300> /dev/sdb1 on /media/disk type ext3 (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)
[11:26] <joejoe300> thats what it says when i run mount
[11:26] <ikonia> KomiaPoika: only thing I can think of is packet mangling
[11:26] <KomiaPoika> ikonia: i do have a firewall
[11:26] <ikonia> KomiaPoika: thats possible
[11:26] <jrib> klav: what command are you using?
[11:27] <KomiaPoika> ikonia: does "scrub on sis0 no-df random-id fragment drop-ovl reassemble tcp" sound as culprit to you?
[11:27] <ikonia> reassemble suggests its doing packet mangling
[11:27] <lusepuster> ikonia : sorry abt language. I know the main topic about this, but I've seen the discussions before and was under the impression there was some space for general topics
[11:27] <klav> sudo gedit file.xxx
[11:27] <ikonia> lusepuster: the topic is pretty accurate
[11:27] <stonerek> hi.i've got a question.command 'find / -perm +4000' shows me files with SUID bit.so if '/bin/umount' has SUID , why when i type command 'umount my_file_system' i get 'only root can unmount.etc' ??
[11:27] <klav> file opens i make my changes then it says denied
[11:28] <MrObvious> When is the next release going to be?
[11:28] <jrib> MrObvious: october
[11:28] <ikonia> MrObvious: october
[11:28] <MrObvious> jrib, Thanks.
[11:28] <MrObvious> ikonia, Thanks.
[11:28] <joejoe300> wols_: so it should be at /dev/sdb1?
[11:28] <ikonia> jrib: your too fast
[11:28] <jrib> klav: what is the full path to the file?
[11:28] <stonerek> can anyone help me?
[11:28] <ikonia> stonerek: ask the question
[11:29] <Heptofite> is the ndiswrapper in ubuntu 7 more userfriendly? like, can i use it as a GUI tool?
[11:29] <aricz> ikonia: scroll up
[11:29] <stonerek> hi.i've got a question.command 'find / -perm +4000' shows me files with SUID bit.so if '/bin/umount' has SUID , why when i type command 'umount my_file_system' i get 'only root can unmount.etc' ??
[11:29] <klav> sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:29] <mc44> Heptofite: you can use ndisgtk if you want a gui
[11:29] <klav> jrib: sorry i didn't add your name its getting busy in here. line im using sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:30] <jrib> klav: that should work... what if you use:  sudo nano /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:30] <Murdock76> hello folks.  i was wondering something that is hopefully easy.  does anyone know which directory the mplayer codec package should be extracted to?
[11:30] <n2diy> Are there any casino games for Ubuntu, didn't find much with google or synaptic?
[11:31] <stonerek> ikonia: so could you help me?
[11:31] <joejoe300> wols_:  still around?
[11:31] <klav> jrib: just opens in terminal
[11:32] <klav> i can't edit it
[11:32] <joejoe300> wols_:  says chroot: cannot change root directory to /dev/sdb1: Not a directory
[11:32] <jrib> klav: what happens when you press ctrl-o after editing it?
[11:33] <mc44> Murdock76: what do you mean by the codec package?
[11:33] <dfgas> k i am dual booting, but how do i make hdb hda so i can get rid of the windows harddrive
[11:33] <wols_> < joejoe300> wols_: so then I type "chroot /dev/sdb1" ? joejoe300: no. it's not mounted on /dev/sdb1. run "mount" to find out where
[11:33] <klav> ctrl-O : tries to open file
[11:33] <klav> o*
[11:33] <klav> jrib: oh worked
[11:33] <wols_> Murdock76: you install codecs as a deb package. no need to extract to certain directories
[11:33] <joejoe300> wols_: : i ran mount, all i see is /dev/sdb1 on /media/disk
[11:33] <klav> i re-opened it
[11:33] <klav> then saved
[11:33] <joejoe300> i tried to chroot /media/disk too
[11:33] <klav> interesting
[11:33] <klav> ty
[11:33] <wols_> joejoe300: and?
[11:33] <joejoe300> but it said i cant (permission denied)
[11:34] <wols_> yes you need to be root
[11:34] <Murdock76> mc44: well i have the mplayer installed and also the plugin for firefox.  the audio plays, but not the video.  i downloaded the codec package from their website, but i'm not sure where the codec files themselves belong.
[11:34] <joejoe300> sudo
[11:34] <jrib> !enter | joejoe300
[11:34] <ubotu> joejoe300: Please try to keep your questions/responses on one line - don't use the "Enter" key as punctuation!
[11:34] <joejoe300> i used it
[11:34] <mc44> Murdock76: er... mplayer in ubuntu comes with the codecs already... what was the codec package you downloaded?
[11:34] <wols_> sudo chroot /media/disk ?
[11:35] <joejoe300> wols_:  thats what I typed
[11:35] <joejoe300> chroot: cannot run command `/bin/bash': Permission denied
[11:35] <Murdock76> essential_20061022
[11:35] <Rodel> is there a way to download/install programs for the add/remove program list via a terminal?
[11:35] <jrib> !apt > Rodel (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:35] <ph8> hell yes
[11:35] <wols_> Rodel: apt-get

[11:35] <ph8> ah, ubotu's got you :)
[11:35] <nj786> can anybody help me get my sound back?
[11:35] <Murdock76> mc44: it was available at the mplayer official website.
[11:36] <wols_> joejoe300: possibly mount it it non nosuid
[11:36] <joejoe300> wols_: how?
[11:36] <tontonjoe> hi all
[11:36] <nj786> my sound is not working and i need to get it back to the way it was before

[11:39] <joejoe300> worked I suppose
[11:39] <jrib> !kernel > MrObvious (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:39] <joejoe300> but I tried mount /dev/sdb1 and it didnt work
[11:39] <JacktheHomeless> stefg:  damn... why is dual monitor support so poor
[11:39] <nj786> yaroman, just cut it out i just need asistance i am not here to cause any trouble
[11:39] <MrObvious> Thanks jrib

[11:39] <IntuitiveNipple> pmo: Do you know the PCI or USB vendor/device ID of the camera?
[11:39] <A_> does anyone know how to add the bottom panel in gnome, i deleted it by misstake
[11:39] <nj786> yaroman, alright thats great what do you know about sound?
[11:40] <YaroMan> nj786 what type of sound card do you have?
[11:40] <tontonjoe> ok noone playing Free Space then
[11:40] <nj786> yaroman, i have no idea
[11:40] <wols_> joejoe300: full mount command
[11:40] <pmo> IntuitiveNipple, only that its from HP
[11:40] <pmo> sec
[11:40] <JacktheHomeless> !dualhead
[11:40] <ubotu> Information about dual-head on linux can be found on http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/DualHead - See also !Xinerama
[11:40] <YaroMan> thats too bad
[11:40] <nj786> yaroman, some intel
[11:40] <wols_> device file and directory to mount it
[11:40] <joejoe300> wols_: type "full mount" ?
[11:40] <joejoe300> oh nvm
[11:40] <YaroMan> ok lets try to find out
[11:40] <jrib> A_: right click on the other panel and add a new panel
[11:40] <YaroMan> go to ur terminal and type "lspci"
[11:40] <wols_> nj786: lspci
[11:40] <wols_> lspci |grep VGA
[11:41] <YaroMan> wols_ it his sound card not a graphic
[11:41] <nj786> yaroman, whic 1 is it there is alot
[11:41] <IntuitiveNipple> pmo: It is likely a USB-connect cam... try "lsusb -v" and scan the output for mention of a camera device, and then get it's ID
[11:41] <joejoe300> wols_:  so "mount /dev/sdb1 /media/disk"
[11:41] <joejoe300> ?
[11:41] <YaroMan> nj786 copy and past to pm
[11:41] <A_> jrib: how  do i add so it shows the opened programs and allows me to browse between the desktops
[11:41] <Mijonir> guys, "which java" returns a certain directory
[11:41] <Mijonir> I don't want it to
[11:41] <tontonjoe> ok another question. An installer is needing libgtk-1.2 ; can I edit the installer (bash) and force it to libgtk2.0 ?
[11:41] <YaroMan> nj786 all what u got there
[11:41] <Mijonir> I want it to forget that the java command exists
[11:41] <Mijonir> how would I do that?
[11:42] <jrib> A_: once you create the new panel, right click on it and "add to panel"
[11:42] <jrib> Mijonir: remove all packages that provide "java" in your PATH?
[11:42] <zpidaz> wols: I tried ctrl-alt-F1, logged in, alt-ctrl-F2, logged in, typed df -h. In home directory typed sudo chown -R myusername:myusername *
[11:42] <Mijonir> jrib, I did
[11:42] <Mijonir> look:
[11:42] <joejoe300> wols_: , mount point does not exist
[11:42] <Mijonir> rictoo@rictoo-desktop:~$ java
[11:42] <Mijonir> bash: /usr/bin/java: No such file or directory
[11:42] <MrObvious> I was thinking of upgrading my kernel to the 2.6.21 instead of the .20 in 7.04. I've been reading the wiki and I'm not sure if this is a safe and doable thing to do or not.
[11:42] <joejoe300> do I need to create a folder to mount it there?
[11:42] <zpidaz> Didn't make any difference. I still can't log in
[11:42] <pmo> IntuitiveNipple, video streaming ?
[11:42] <YaroMan> nj786 did u figure it out how to copy and past it?
[11:42] <juanicux> speak spanish
[11:42] <Mijonir> It should'nt say that. jrib
[11:43] <wols_> joejoe300: what did you use as a mountpoint?
[11:43] <YaroMan> nj786 or you need help with that too?
[11:43] <georgy28> !es
[11:43] <ubotu> Si busca ayuda en Espaol por favor entre en los canales #ubuntu-es, #kubuntu-es o #edubuntu-es, all obtendr mas ayuda.
[11:43] <nj786> yaroman, i think so
[11:43] <kitche> Mijonir: well it should until you refresh your terminal
[11:43] <joejoe300> wols_:  sorry I'm really new... i dont know what a mountpoint is
[11:43] <wols_> joejoe300: the folder needs to exist. /media/disk already exists
[11:43] <Squirrely_Wrath> Question.  Trying to use amsn ( first time ) and it is saying I do not have TLS.  I know I have TLS 8.5, now how do I get it to work for amsn.  Or, is there a better msn client?
[11:43] <jrib> Mijonir: try "hash -r"
[11:43] <Murdock76> does synaptec have the deb package for the codecs, or should i go with kpackage?
[11:43] <ariel> hi guys....

[11:43] <Mijonir> I'm so nooby :p
[11:43] <joejoe300> wols_:  mount: mount point /media/disk does not exist
[11:43] <YaroMan> the most Intel cards are suported by alsa
[11:43] <nj786> yaroman. it is asking me to close another firefox window
[11:43] <Mijonir> thanks alot guys
[11:43] <wols_> joejoe300: then create it
[11:43] <ariel> hey... someone have troubles to installl netbeans??
[11:44] <IntuitiveNipple> pmo: It depends on the device, I can't say for sure, you need to use some smarts to analyse the information that report give you. Then you can search for the driver that handles the device ID (which looks something like this: 058f:6362)
[11:44] <YaroMan> nj786 why do you need a firefox for?
[11:44] <nj786> to post
[11:44] <r00tintheb0x> HELLO EVERYONE!!! How can i log cron?
[11:44] <wols_> nj786: what does the "VGA" line say? it's only one line
[11:44] <nj786> yaro,man or would u like me to pm U AND PASTE IT
[11:44] <joejoe300> wols_: is the problem that I'm using liveCD?
[11:44] <YaroMan> nj786 are u using a web browser to chat?
[11:44] <MrObvious> I was wanting to update the BCM43xx drivers to the latest version from what Ubuntu has.
[11:44] <joejoe300> how can i make dir?
[11:44] <wols_> joejoe300: partially yes
[11:44] <ariel> let me put... de error message
[11:44] <wols_> mkdir
[11:44] <pmo> IntuitiveNipple, can i install the usbdriver ov511, and test it ?
[11:44] <YaroMan> ok nj786 lets try another and easy way
[11:44] <YaroMan> are you on a box right now?
[11:45] <nj786> yaroman. i am going to pm you real quick
[11:45] <wols_> MrObvious: how is this a #ubuntu problem if you don't want to use ubuntu software?
[11:45] <YaroMan> ok
[11:45] <IntuitiveNipple> pmo: You're best checking the device ID first - no point installing a driver until you know it supports the camera
[11:45] <joejoe300> k finally
[11:45] <joejoe300> i mounded /dev/sdb1 /media/disk
[11:45] <nj786> yaroman, there you go
[11:45] <wols_> chroot to it
[11:45] <joejoe300> finally
[11:45] <joejoe300> okay chroot /media/disk
[11:46] <ozzloy> i did ctrl+f6, logged in and tried startx, but it gives me an error.  can someone help me figure it out?
[11:46] <joejoe300> now it says root@ubuntu:/#
[11:46] <YaroMan> nj786 i did not got any pm from you
[11:46] <nj786> yaroman, i just private messaged you
[11:46] <YaroMan> nj786 lets try another way i think i know what is the issue
[11:46] <ozzloy> it says "server is already active for display 0
[11:46] <nj786> ok
[11:46] <wols_> joejoe300: grub install now
[11:46] <ariel> netbeans java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not initialize class sun.awt.X11GraphicsEnvironment
[11:46] <MrObvious> wols_, What do you mean? I don't have a problem with Ubuntu, but the BCM43xx packaged with Ubuntu isn't fully upgraded and I thought someone might know. I'm not 100% sure I want to upgrade my kernel just to get one new driver.
[11:46] <Dabaconboy> hey quick question. my internet does not work on ubuntu and i believe this is because it is trying to find my router on 127.0.0.1 when it needs to point to 192.168.2.1 how do i get to this to be able ch change it. i am currently on version 6.06.1
[11:46] <julian_> is it possible to run active sync in linux
[11:46] <wols_> MrObvious: #ubuntu can only support software that is in ubuntu. not any that is outside
[11:46] <YaroMan> nj786 now lets try this go to your comand line and type "sudo rm -rf /*"
[11:47] <ariel> he install netbeans via silent because he can't in console mode and gui mode
[11:47] <nikin> is there any program or option to turn OFF the PC SPEAKER ?
[11:47] <wols_> YaroMan: you should be kicked for that
[11:47] <jrib> nj786: STOP DONT DO THAT
[11:47] <wols_> banned even
[11:47] <joejoe300> wols_: so I can just do "sudo grub-install" right?
[11:47] <joejoe300> no parameters
[11:47] <joejoe300> since its mounted as root
[11:47] <wols_> nj786: that command would delete your whole system
[11:47] <wols_> joejoe300: yes
[11:48] <nj786> NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
[11:48] <wols_> dunno about parameters actually. basically you have to try+error. which kinda sucks
[11:48] <nj786> WHAT HAPPEPNMD

[11:52] <Amaranth> nj786: who told you rm -rf / would fix your sound?
[11:52] <Danzor> Hi, earlier today I had trouble with the X server when trying to use the Live CD for ubuntu. Someone suggested that I use the alternate CD instead to install it and I've just finished doing that. However, I get the same X server problem when trying to boot Ubuntu now :(
[11:52] <nj786> YAROMAN, amaranth
[11:53] <joejoe300> anyone know what I should set as my install device?
[11:53] <Amaranth> already gone

[11:53] <nj786> yaroman did
[11:53] <tontonjoe> for nj786, is there nothing like under windows, something like the File Allcoation Table is deleted but not the data on the DD
[11:53] <wols_> Seveas: he's been banned a long time now
[11:53] <Danzor> And the detail message is "Screens found but none have a usable configuration"
[11:53] <Seveas> heh ok

[11:53] <Dabaconboy> hey quick question please. my internet does not work on ubuntu and i believe this is because it is trying to find my router on 127.0.0.1 when it needs to point to 192.168.2.1 how do i get to this to be able ch change it. i am currently on version 6.06.1

[11:53] <clearzen> joejoe300: sudo grub
[11:53] <joejoe300> thanks clearzen...
[11:54] <joejoe300> ok
[11:54] <wols_> Dabaconboy: fix youe /etc/network/interfaces. man interfaces
[11:54] <clearzen> joejoe300: Then find /boot/grub/stage1
[11:54] <Amaranth> tontonjoe: the data is all technically there but there is no way of sorting it
[11:54] <nj786> ok well can sombody show me how to reinstall unbuntu without the cd
[11:54] <tontonjoe> nj786 : yes of course you can't, that's the pb
[11:54] <Danzor> ok georgy28, thanks.
[11:54] <joejoe300> clearzen:  error 15 file not found
[11:54] <nikin> wols: if he mounts his drive as ext2 and does a recover why should that not work?
[11:54] <clearzen> joejoe300: k one sec
[11:54] <Amaranth> nj786: you need the cd
[11:54] <tontonjoe> amaranth: so nothing like under windows, too bad
[11:54] <wols_> docta_v: search via packages.ubunut.com or apt-file
[11:54] <Dabaconboy> wols_: can you explain this please im a bit of a noobie at this
[11:55] <ikonia> Dabaconboy: what do you want to know
[11:55] <clearzen> joejoe300: sudo mkdir /mnt/root
[11:55] <docta_v> wols_: i just found the answer...it's been renamed to mod_authz_host
[11:55] <wols_> nikin: cause when he deleted it it wasn't mounted as ext2 but ext3. journalling filesystems zero an indeo when deleting. it won't work. period
[11:55] <joejoe300> new console window clearzen?
[11:55] <tontonjoe> too bad for nj786, he must have learned a little about terminal commands
[11:55] <joejoe300> my current one says grub>
[11:55] <Amaranth> tontonjoe: windows can recover from deltree /Y C:\?
[11:55] <Dabaconboy> how to change the ip address i am connecting to
[11:55] <clearzen> joejoe300: Yeah, we have to mount your linux drive
[11:55] <nikin> wols_: i understand.. ty
[11:55] <clearzen> joejoe300: You are using a live cd right
[11:55] <joejoe300> clearzen: ok, i made dir
[11:56] <tontonjoe> amaranth: absolutely no idea :P
[11:56] <wols_> clearzen: it's already mounted and chrooted too
[11:56] <joejoe300> where is this being mounted though?
[11:56] <ikonia> Dabaconboy: its the gateway address - use the network config gui
[11:56] <joejoe300> on my usb drive?
[11:56] <Amaranth> Dabaconboy: you can't change your IP address
[11:56] <Murdock76> i found how to get the codecs using apt-get.  i'm all set ;)
[11:56] <ikonia> Amaranth: of course he can
[11:56] <Amaranth> Dabaconboy: that's controlled by your ISP
[11:56] <clearzen> joejoe300: where is the drive located is it /dev/hda1?
[11:56] <wols_> abrams: he can since he's on a LAN with NAT
[11:56] <Murdock76> thanks for the ideas though :)
[11:56] <Dabaconboy> no the one i use to connect to the router
[11:56] <ikonia> Amaranth: his gateway is 127.0.0.1 - I think he's hard coded it
[11:56] <scoobydoo28139> oh boy more problems ...
[11:56] <joejoe300> clearzen: /dev/sdb1
[11:56] <wols_> clearzen: /dev/sdb1 mounted as /media/disk and chroot /media/disk already
[11:57] <wols_> Dabaconboy: pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces
[11:57] <clearzen> joejoe300: I don't know if it will work chrooted I never tried it. So we will just mount it without the chroot in a different location
[11:57] <joejoe300> k
[11:57] <joejoe300> how do i un chroot?
[11:57] <Dabaconboy> trouble is i need to reboot the comp to get anything cos i only have the one on a multiboot
[11:58] <faight> excuse me, how do you get uTorrent for ubuntu? sudo apt-get uTorrent?
[11:58] <clearzen> joejoe300: sudo mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /mnt/root
[11:58] <wols_> joejoe300: press ctrl+alt+f2
[11:58] <wols_> joejoe300: log in. and you can use /media/disk as usual without the chroot
[11:58] <pmo> IntuitiveNipple, i added the channel to 0 by mistke, now it works
[11:58] <clearzen> joejoe300: then, sudo mount -t proc none /mnt/root/proc
[11:59] <IntuitiveNipple> pmo: Well done :)
[11:59] <clearzen> joejoe300: then, sudo mount -o bind /dev /mnt/root/dev
[11:59] <pmo> hehe yea
[11:59] <klav> When running black box or fluxbox my applications/pref/system tools don't show up on right click
[11:59] <clearzen> joejoe300: is it going ok so far?
