[12:01] <daylighter> spudspudspud, I could learn ruby, but that wouldnt be too much help for what I want, would it? :)
[12:01] <selinuxium> Hi all, anyone with fwbuilder experience? I have a server with 3 ethernet card. I wnat to use it as a LAMP and a router. Any help gratefully received!
[12:01] <dr_willis> sidny4,  could use samba, or just ssh or the various FUSE/sshfs tools.. or set up a NFS share..
[12:01] <sidny4> ok
[12:02] <kerik> hey guys...anybody who know about getting tv-out working in Feisty?
[12:02] <dr_willis> sidny4,  depends on the detailas as to what would be the best solution.
[12:02] <dr_willis> sidny4,  ssh and scp are rather easy to use
[12:02] <spudspudspud> daylighter: I have to confess, I was not paying attention. I just caught your 'I wish i could program' and wanted to get you to try. :-)
[12:02] <daylighter> lol :)
[12:02] <sidny4> yeah, I usually use ssh, I was just wondering if there was an easier way
[12:03] <daylighter> I have tried, and I just cant do anything with tons of equations and algebraic calculations in it
[12:03] <dr_willis> id still rather be a MultiBillionaer! then i could pick funny names for my own Linux Disrto!
[12:03] <kerik> TV out working in Ubuntu?
[12:03] <daylighter> lol, my actual name is James Dean, I should make JamesDeanLinux
[12:03] <spudspudspud> LOL @ dr_willis
[12:03] <daylighter> 1950's themes
[12:03] <maximal_> kerik: what video card?
[12:03] <dr_willis> daylighter,  The James Dean Festival is near where i live every year.
[12:03] <dr_willis> :)
[12:03] <jlu> a stupid question: i've installed beryl, changed icon theme and my system is starting to look pretty good. but - how do i pimp the panels? they're still grey and soviety. :)
[12:03] <daylighter> and PorscheWM
[12:03] <kerik> maximal_, Intel 830gm
[12:04] <dr_willis> I perfer Jimmy Dean. :) he makes good saussage!
[12:04] <daylighter> lol
[12:04] <kerik> maximal_, I cant find the settings..
[12:04] <daylighter> I wish I was related to him, I'd get some money
[12:04] <jander99> !seen Keybuk
[12:04] <ryugaka> i have never seen Keybuk
[12:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about seen keybuk - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:04] <maximal_> kerik: have you looked on the Intel site?
[12:05] <nonewmsgs> i accidently broke the switch on my agp slot.  the card works but i need to press the vga slot down every so often or it comes out.  what is the best solution to this
[12:05] <siimo> hi there... any idea if ubuntu has pidgin 2.0.1 backported yet in updates or backports repo
[12:05] <maximal_> kerik: I have just been trying to install a new nvidia driver and came across some TV out info in the installation guide
[12:05] <kerik> maximal_, not really...I know the tv-out channel is working but do I need extra drivers? - can you tell me where to find the setup for it in Ubuntu?
[12:05] <kerik> maximal_, ok...good or bad?
[12:06] <dr_willis> kerik,  with nvidia cards?
[12:06] <kerik> dr_willis, well...actually I just wonder where to find the setup for the tv out (suppose there is something similar to the windblows setup?)
[12:07] <dr_willis> kerik,  you can easially configure nvdia's twinview to enable the tv out to be part of a larget desktop, or cloned.
[12:07] <kerik> dr_willis, I have intel card though...
[12:07] <dr_willis> You are on your own then. :)
[12:08] <kerik> dr_willis, but there is no setup in Ubuntu as standard? you know like the properties in windows?
[12:08] <sx66> is gnome-look.org only for ubuntu?
[12:08] <jimmygoon> sx66, no it is for GNOME
[12:08] <sx66> ?
[12:08] <jimmygoon> ...
[12:08] <jander99> gnome-look is for all gnome installations, not just ubuntu
[12:08] <maximal_> kerik: with the nvidia it is a matter of setting options in the X config file
[12:08] <jander99> same with kde-look
[12:09] <jimmygoon> gnome-look.org supplies background, metacity, gtk+ gtk2, etc "stuff" for the GNOME desktop environment, whihc ubuntu uses, as well as MANY other distributions
[12:09] <[Thom] > How do I set up samba to start automatically when I reboot my machine?
[12:09] <kerik> maximal_, ok...hmm...where do I find that file? - and is it relatively easy to comprehend?
[12:09] <aaanone> is there any way to get Add/Remove Programs to take notice of programs you have manually compiled?
[12:09] <maximal_> kerik: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[12:10] <jimmygoon> aaanone, they would have to be installed via apt-get, so no
[12:10] <jimmygoon> aaanone, unless you packaged it into a deb file and then installed it
[12:10] <kerik> maximal_, cheers mate
[12:10] <Simon80> aaanone: you probably should look at the checkinstall package
[12:10] <Shaftoooo> kerik: If not, maybe as a starting point http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=361124 (I know it aint your exact chipset)
[12:10] <Simon80> but avoid manually installing apps if you can
[12:10] <harry_> How do I make a disk image of my SD card?
[12:11] <T`> anyone here know if it would matter if you had a fx5200 nvidia card or a $600 vid card if you are only using it for your desktop in 2d mode with twinview?
[12:11] <maximal_> kerik: or http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=449232&highlight=tv+out+intel
[12:11] <kerik> Shaftoooo, thanx for that one :)
[12:11] <Darkkish> does anyone here have UT2004?
[12:11] <Simon80> harry_: dd if=/dev/sdx of=somefile.img, where x is some letter so that sdx points to the file representing your SD card
[12:12] <Simon80> T`: if you aren't sure, you probably shouldn't spend 600 bucks on a video card
[12:12] <[Thom] > Isn't it just a file that I have to change to start samba?
[12:12] <harry_> Simon80: How would I restore later
[12:12] <Shaftoooo> kerik: Ohh maybe maximal_'s is more accurate, I read it but didnt notice there was a solution in the bottom post,
[12:12] <Simon80> harry_: switch if and of
[12:13] <T`> Simon80, not saying i will be, im just trying to understand
[12:13] <Simon80> so the image is the input file, and the device is the output file
[12:13] <MrWGW> is WPA support any better in Feisty than in Edgy?
[12:13] <kerik> :)
[12:13] <T`> MrWGW, horible
[12:13] <Simon80> T`: shouldn't matter
[12:13] <MrWGW> I've been experiencing a dramatic nightmare with Edgy
[12:13] <T`> MrWGW, i can't get it to associate with my bcm43xx most of the time
[12:13] <MrWGW> the new Network Manager worked for a while, but now it has stopped working...
[12:14] <jander99> Feisty supports networking much better than Edgy in my opinion
[12:14] <MrWGW> suprising that Ubuntu would fall down on WPA support
[12:14] <T`> MrWGW, heh it works intermittently for me.. but overall wireless on feisty scks
[12:14] <sebas_> I installed mingw32, how do I run it?
[12:14] <T`> sucks*
[12:14] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, I think that ubuntu supports WPA just fine
[12:14] <nonewmsgs>  with a 900mhz box would it be better to use xubuntu, fluxbuntu, or straight ubuntu
[12:14] <jander99> What wireless card do you use MrWGW?
[12:14] <jimmygoon> sebas_, welcome to me 3 hours ago
[12:14] <MrWGW> its an Intel icw something IIRC
[12:14] <siimo> hi there... any idea if ubuntu has pidgin 2.0.1 backported yet in updates or backports repo
[12:14] <daylighter> ubuntu would run fine, but xubuntu would run faster
[12:14] <jimmygoon> sebas_, dpkg -L mingw32  try that
[12:14] <jander99> ipw2200?
[12:14] <balazsflo> hello. Is there a way to add a keyboard shortcut to switch languages ?
[12:14] <MrWGW> and it did work with the WPA briefly, and I've tested it with other distros running in LiveCD mode
[12:14] <Simon80> sebas_: that sounds like a windows question, not an ubuntu question
[12:14] <jander99> or ipw3945
[12:14] <jrib> siimo: no
[12:15] <sebas_> jimmygoon: thanks
[12:15] <jander99> those are the most common, I use ipw2200 in my dell laptop.
[12:15] <MrWGW> and now its not working...Network Manager indicates that a connection exists
[12:15] <MrWGW> and I can ping the router
[12:15] <jimmygoon> sebas_, no problem, let me know if that wasn'
[12:15] <Simon80> really
[12:15] <Simon80> ?
[12:15] <jimmygoon> t specific enough
[12:15] <MrWGW> but not load any websites etc
[12:15] <sebas_> Simon80: its a crosscompiler
[12:15] <jander99> MrWGW, are you typing from another computer or the one with the problem, just using cat5?
[12:15] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, that sounds like a DNS problem, an internet problem, or a router problem.... see jander99's question for what I'm thinking...
[12:15] <MrWGW> from another computer...
[12:16] <Bloodstorm> with what burner can i burn with 4x speed CD's
[12:16] <Bloodstorm> ?
[12:16] <Simon80> sebas_: ah, nvm, see above then
[12:16] <rescon> !nbtstat
[12:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about nbtstat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:16] <Darkkish> does anyone else here play UT2004
[12:16] <rescon> !netbios
[12:16] <MrWGW> well every other PC I've tested with it is running fine
[12:16] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about netbios - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:16] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, what happens when you try to select that connection with the Network mangager?
[12:16] <MrWGW> it connects
[12:16] <daylighter> Bloodstorm, any CD Burner, just select the slower speed in whatever you're using to burn with
[12:16] <jimmygoon> .....?
[12:16] <MrWGW> but there is no actual connectivity
[12:16] <[Thom] > How do I set up samba to start automatically when I reboot my machine?
[12:16] <jimmygoon> oh
[12:16] <[Thom] > Isn't it just a file that I have to change to start samba?
[12:16] <jimmygoon> does it get an IP address
[12:16] <jimmygoon> ?
[12:16] <MrWGW> yes
[12:16] <Simon80> Darkkish: I have, in the past
[12:16] <Darkkish> Is it possible to Alt tab?
[12:17] <Darkkish> or atleast focus the mouse out of the game
[12:17] <Darkkish> or are you pretty much locked in the game?
[12:17] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, if it is able to get an IP address then it is establishing a connection with the router and thus your problem is elsewhere
[12:17] <Simon80> Darkkish: hit ctrl+g to ungrab
[12:17] <Darkkish> thanks
[12:17] <Simon80> IIRC
[12:17] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, can you "ping www.google.com" with it in that state or does it fail?
[12:17] <MrWGW> it fails
[12:17] <sebas_> jimmygoon: what after that command? I mean, I can't run mingw32 from the terminal
[12:17] <MrWGW> I can ping the router, however
[12:17] <MrWGW> but I can't access the router's config page (which I should be able to, given that the router is set to allow remote configuration)
[12:18] <Simon80> sebas_: that command lets you know what files are installed by that package, so you can figure it out
[12:18] <kerik> anybody know how to install NV-TV?
[12:18] <Ashfire908> hey, i just got this old server up and running, but ubuntu-server installer says it doesn't undersdtand the hard drives, and unubnu desktop says there is no drives.
[12:18] <[Thom] > Apparently in GenToo the command is 'rc-update'
[12:18] <kerik> and maybe will be able to tell me how nv-tv works with intel cards...
[12:18] <jimmygoon> sebas_ sorry ... the command form at is like this: i586-mingw32msvc-g++
[12:19] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, try this: "ping 64.233.167.147"
[12:19] <Darkkish> simurg: how do i make it regrab?
[12:20] <MrWGW> ok
[12:20] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, the fact that your router is allowing remote config is something else... thats like if you are on a different network you can reach it, but if you are getting an IP address from it, then that is regular router behaivoir
[12:20] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, ok it worked or ok you'll try?
[12:20] <MrWGW> ok, I'll try
[12:20] <MrWGW> I have to reboot
[12:20] <jimmygoon> oh ok
[12:20] <MrWGW> that computer...
[12:21] <MrWGW> and btw, my router allows remote configuration access on THIS network (I'm accessing it from this ThinkPad running Suse)
[12:21] <sebas_> jimmygoon: yes, it works now
[12:21] <Bloodstorm> with what burner can i burn with 4x speed CD's
[12:21] <cyphase> Anyone know is Mathusalem is going to be in Gutsy?
[12:22] <Bloodstorm> Anyone knows who killed kennedy?
[12:22] <T`> whats mahusalem
[12:23] <T`> Bloodstorm, CIA?
[12:23] <ompaul> !offtopic | Bloodstorm
[12:23] <ubotu> Bloodstorm: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[12:23] <Esers> Hey all
[12:23] <Esers> How much space for Ubuntu 7.04 should i give
[12:23] <Bloodstorm> 10 gb is enough
[12:23] <T`> cyphase, thats probably the worst name ever for a task manager..
[12:23] <Esers> that's too much
[12:23] <ompaul> Esers, the more the better
[12:24] <Esers> just for testing and messing around
[12:24] <nonewmsgs> why does ping xyz file but ping 192.168.1.64 fail
[12:24] <Esers> windows still main
[12:24] <cyphase> T`: yea, well..
[12:24] <sx66> To Install Beryl
[12:24] <Esers> will 5gb fors os and 512 - 1gb fors swap be enough to run it +/- well
[12:24] <sx66> sudo aptitude install beryl emerald-themes
[12:24] <sx66> To run:
[12:24] <sx66> beryl-manager &
[12:24] <sx66> now what do I do?
[12:25] <MrWGW> jimmygoon, I get the error Network Is Unreachable
[12:25] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, all of the computers that are hooked up to that router are supposed to have access to it, not just one computer, remote connection would be like if I could connect to it, which is a HORRIBLE idea, especially if you are concerned about security
[12:25] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, use a pastebin and tell me the results of "sudo ifconfig" and then "sudo iwconfig"
[12:25] <jimmygoon> !tell MrWGW about pastebin
[12:26] <MrWGW> using pastebin would be rather difficult given that the computer lacks a network connection...
[12:26] <jimmygoon> heh,
[12:26] <jimmygoon> my bad
[12:26] <Azzkikr> the irony
[12:26] <ompaul> Esers, you really want to be looking at giving it 7 with .5 if you want to do general messing around installing lots of different apps that is okay if you just want a desktop and don't intend to install much more, but you have access to 20000 packages so ... your call
[12:26] <MrWGW> however, there are some errors
[12:26] <MrWGW> or not
[12:26] <MrWGW> sorry
[12:26] <pot> sx66 : does it not work ?   beryl-manager probably gave you error
[12:26] <jimmygoon> errors where, in the ifconfig command, thats irregular
[12:26] <MrWGW> no no, I was thinking of something else
[12:27] <sx66> it works, now what do I do?
[12:27] <MrWGW> one thing to note, btw, is that I am running VMWare Server on this box
[12:27] <pot> sx66 : enjoy effects
[12:27] <MrWGW> I'm wondering if that could be causing a problem
[12:27] <sx66> do I need to configure something?
[12:27] <pot> sx66 : you can change many options - you should have an icon in your notify area - right click it
[12:28] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, wait the box without an internet connection is?
[12:29] <KurtKraut> Does anyone recommend an IRC bouncer (or proxy) like psybnc but that is already packaged for ubuntu ? I've already tried bip and ctrlproxy and it has been hard to make them work.
[12:29] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, I can't remember exactly what VMWARE does, but it makes a nasty mess of the network interfaces
[12:29] <MrWGW> the box without the internet connection is a Dell laptop
[12:29] <jander99> vmware creates logical interfaces that tunnel from a physical interface into the vm
[12:29] <MrWGW> I suspect that VMWare could be causing the problem
[12:30] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, you could try uninstalling it, but I don't know (why) it would be causing hte problem
[12:30] <jimmygoon> jander99, yes, and that /shouldn't/ create this problem should it?
[12:30] <jose_miguel> hello, is there a way to configure apt-get to always install documentation? may be in the conf file or the preferences.
[12:31] <Fawaz> how can i install java runtime env for firefox?
[12:31] <jander99> I'm reading the chat log to figure out what the problem is jimmy, I looked away for a minute and swooosh, text flew by ;-)
[12:31] <Shaftoooo> Fawaz: From add/remove
[12:31] <MrWGW> well VMWare creates a sort of LAN type of thing that's virtualized on the host computer
[12:31] <pppoe_dude> hi any ideas on how to change contrast/saturation/etc under an i950 gfx chipset on ubuntu?
[12:31] <MrWGW> however, annoyingly enough it does not appear to be registered with Synaptic
[12:31] <jimmygoon> Fawaz, enable repos and install "sun-java6-plugin" and "sun-java6-jre"
[12:32] <Cockroach> how can I specify a config when using apt-get install linux-image-*
[12:32] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, hm, I'm of no help here, when I installed that in the past I was using the regular VMware software before they were giving away Server...
[12:33] <jander99> MrWGW, lemme clarify for a second, you have a laptop, with a wireless interface, with wmvare installed, and you're not able to get a network connection outside your ability to ping your router?
[12:33] <zAo^afk> Cockroach: you cant. Its precompiled. You can only chose the arch
[12:33] <MrWGW> correct jander
[12:33] <MrWGW> and yes, I have network manager, and the network uses WPA
[12:33] <jander99> okay.
[12:33] <sx66> open office takes a long time to open...what is faster?
[12:33] <MrWGW> koffice from what I've heard, or abiword+gnumeric
[12:33] <Fawaz> jimmygoon: thanx
[12:33] <jander99> can you copy/paste the output of "iwconfig" from a terminal window?
[12:33] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, you have network manager, as in the network-manager-gnome applet that runs in your tasktray
[12:33] <MrWGW> not easily since hte laptop lacks a network connection jander
[12:34] <MrWGW> correct jimmygoon
[12:34] <ubuntu_> how do i mount an ntfs partition read only
[12:34] <jander99> oh, right :) sorry lol
[12:34] <jimmygoon> jander99, I did the same thing a few minutes ago :)
[12:34] <MrWGW> note the network card is an ipw2100
[12:34] <jimmygoon> ubuntu_ it should happen automatically
[12:34] <masterloki> ok
[12:34] <masterloki> narrowed down the reproduceable bug
[12:34] <[Thom] > Has anyone ever used update-rc.d ?
[12:34] <pm2> I'm having trouble with OpenLDAP slapd in feisty.  I've been developing a slapd.conf file.  When I run slapd, I get a seg fault.  output from slapd pasted here: http://rafb.net/p/6rl4Mw76.html -- config file here: http://rafb.net/p/rgKDk516.html
[12:34] <masterloki> well one of many on feisty atm :P
[12:34] <dmhouse> Hey. If I want to edit a .ogg file to chop the first 30 seconds off, what would be a good application to install?
[12:34] <pm2> Any experts who can help me with this?
[12:34] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, you have network manager, as in the network-manager-gnome applet that runs in your tasktray
[12:34] <jimmygoon> ?
[12:34] <masterloki> currently when the screensaver is on
[12:34] <MrWGW> yes jimmygoon
[12:34] <MrWGW> as I said above
[12:34] <masterloki> at some point - perhaps 20-30 min in it freezez
[12:35] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, sorry, just wanted to make sure
[12:35] <MrWGW> ok
[12:35] <masterloki> then the screens [two lcd monitors]  say they are out of timing
[12:35] <masterloki> at this point i cant even ping the machine
[12:35] <MrWGW> which btw seems to lack the ability to let me manually configure the IP address et cetera
[12:35] <masterloki> therefore i think it might be the screensaver or possibly the dpms - the power saving feature
[12:35] <masterloki> anyone else run into  that??
[12:35] <MrWGW> and seems to break completely if I enable the wireless network under the regular networking dialogue
[12:35] <jander99> MrWGW, lemme see if the network card is functioning properly.  When I do "dmesg | grep ipw2200" I get about 4 lines back that say something to the effect of network driver, copyright, detected network connection, and detected geography ZZM.  Do you get something about the same?
[12:36] <MrWGW> hold on
[12:36] <ubuntu_> jimmygoon, it didn't what i did is a took and old hard drive and used dd and copied it to my new hd but if fails so i just want to access the hd
[12:36] <MrWGW> I get three lines back that essentially say that
[12:36] <MrWGW> plus I've tested the card in other distros, and it used to work fine before I replaced my wireless router and started using WPA
[12:36] <Filipim> Alguem do Brasil ai?
[12:37] <jander99> okay, thats a good start, nothing is wrong with udev loading the drivers.

[12:38] <ompaul> HiFructose, don't do it here thanks
[12:39] <MrWGW> the router uses a MAC address control list and the wifi card is added to that list (of allowed MAC addresses)
[12:39] <kitche> HiFructose: server controls that
[12:39] <HiFructose> ompaul: unless you're suggesting i shouldn't change my nick at all i don't think that there is any point in what you're just telling me
[12:39] <MrWGW> everything was working fine yesterday evening after I installed the network manager
[12:39] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, why don't you disable that for now...
[12:39] <ompaul> HiFructose, you got it
[12:39] <HiFructose> well anyway whatever have fun backspamming me with useless hints
[12:39] <HiFructose> ompaul: lol right
[12:39] <jimmygoon> that is another variable on top of what we are trying to figure out
[12:39] <zAo^> m1r: just shoot
[12:39] <MrWGW> i inadvertantly left the installer disk in the drive, and someone else booted up the computer from the LiveCD
[12:39] <MrWGW> and since then the networking has stopped working, oddly enough
[12:39] <ubuntu_> jimmygoon, i want to manualy mount this hd would this command work  mount /etc/hda NTFS /home/ubuntu/new/
[12:39] <m1r> i cant get 3d acceleration to work
[12:40] <m1r> cant find any good info to setit up
[12:40] <masterloki> mlr what drivers
[12:40] <masterloki> and how many monitors
[12:40] <jander99> I'm wondering if some virtual interface is stealing all the network hooks and not allowing the interface with the proper route to be used. what do you think jimmy?
[12:40] <HiFructose> ompaul: also if you want me gone, you can be standup enough to just tell me so, and don't wait until "i cross the line" and then kick me
[12:40] <m1r> laptop
[12:40] <HiFructose> this is ridiculous
[12:40] <masterloki> you get to choose: direct render or duals
[12:40] <zAo^> m1r: what does your log say?
[12:40] <masterloki> ah
[12:40] <masterloki> HiFructose, dont bother
[12:40] <jimmygoon> jander99, thats what I was thinking... except, he says he's getting an IP addy?
[12:40] <masterloki> rant somewhere else youll just be banned
[12:40] <masterloki> ive seen him do it many times
[12:40] <m1r> i have new installation , old installation failed with drivers
[12:40] <masterloki> gotcha m1r gime sec
[12:41] <m1r> ty m8
[12:41] <Tru7h> Where does firefox store its bookmarks?
[12:41] <jimmygoon> MrWGW, can you disable the MAC filter until we are sure the WPA is working?
[12:41] <m1r> i tryed some beta which aint supported
[12:41] <m1r> but failed totaly :/
[12:41] <maximal_> I am trying to install the latest nvidia driver from the nvidia site but get an error saying that the kernel module is a different version from the X server version of the driver.  I can't load the driver using modprobe but can using insmod.  How does modprobe know where to load the driver from?
[12:41] <masterloki> m1r, might as well beryl? or no
[12:41] <masterloki> !paste
[12:41] <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)
[12:41] <jander99> Philosophical question, is there a reason you're using both mac filtering and wpa?
[12:42] <m1r> masterloki, dont think beryl can run on this low tech card
[12:42] <movi> modprobe acpi-cpufreq gives me a no device error. p4-clockmod works fine. P4 prescott, ICH5 chipset
[12:42] <m1r> but would be great to have it :)
[12:42] <masterloki> what card again?
[12:42] <m1r> ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x (rev 64)
[12:42] <m1r> old :/
[12:42] <masterloki> does that count as a 9200?
[12:42] <m1r> nah
[12:42] <jimmygoon> m1r, I think it would run on that... it runs on my crappy bottom line integrated intel crap
[12:43] <topcat1027> can somebody please help me with my desktop effects?
[12:43] <ubuntu_> !diskmounter
[12:43] <jimmygoon> and its at least 3 years old
[12:43] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[12:43] <topcat1027> previously i had them working fine, then i tried to change my xorg file and ever since then they won't work
[12:43] <m1r> i know , i have tryed beryl few months ago when drivers was "setup" :/
[12:43] <m1r> ppl say for that card that is vga decelerator :/
[12:43] <masterloki> http://www.howtoforge.com/ubuntu_feisty_beryl_ati_radeon
[12:43] <masterloki> check that out for feisty
[12:43] <m1r> masterloki
[12:43] <jimmygoon> What is the ubuntu desktop effects channel?
[12:43] <m1r> this is 2mb vga
[12:43] <masterloki> but are you running feisty or um edgy
[12:43] <masterloki> o
[12:43] <masterloki> ic
[12:43] <m1r> feisty
[12:44] <m1r> old shi#$
[12:44] <masterloki> lol that might indeed not work
[12:44] <crdlb> m1r, I believe ubuntu doesn't ship the kernel module needed to give that card direct rendering
[12:44] <maximal_> jimmygoon: #ubuntu-effects
[12:44] <crdlb> m1r, and you need at least a radeon for beryl
[12:44] <jimmygoon> maximal_, thanks
[12:44] <jimmygoon> topcat1027, join #ubuntu-effects
[12:44] <jose_miguel> hello, is there a way to configure apt-get to always install documentation? may be in the conf file or the preferences.
[12:44] <m1r> i just need 3d aceleration if it posible
[12:44] <topcat1027> ah thank you
[12:44] <crimeboy> whats url of source.list maker?
[12:44] <m1r> beryl too heavy for this
[12:45] <crdlb> m1r, check your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and see if it references mach64
[12:45] <lisapc> 'sup?
[12:45] <maximal_> !modprobe
[12:45] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about modprobe - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:45] <crdlb> if it does, afaik it won't work
[12:45] <masterloki> http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=7200
[12:45] <m1r> ok sec
[12:45] <masterloki> i highly recommend google
[12:45] <masterloki> just make sure to get the correct drivers for your cpu
[12:45] <masterloki> kay
[12:46] <masterloki> so anyone help me on my problem??
[12:46] <jimmygoon> masterloki, what is it?
[12:46] <masterloki> desktop freezez after its been in screensaver a bit
[12:46] <jimmygoon> disable screensaver?
[12:46] <jimmygoon> :P
[12:46] <masterloki> i'm thinking either the screensaver on duals [ati 9200]  is unstable
[12:46] <masterloki> OR its the power save fea ture thats actually causeing the bug
[12:46] <jimmygoon> sorry, outside of my "expertise"
[12:46] <m1r> crdlb it says : ATI Technologies Inc Rage Mobility P/M AGP 2x
[12:47] <masterloki> i think more on that because its at least 20 min after screensaver is on before it freezez
[12:47] <jander99> what driver you using for your ati cards loki?
[12:47] <crdlb> m1r, pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[12:47] <m1r> ok sec
[12:47] <sx66> when I Install Beryl
[12:47] <sx66> sudo aptitude install beryl emerald-themes
[12:47] <sx66> To run:
[12:47] <sx66> beryl-manager &
[12:48] <sx66> I press ctrl alt backspace and it does not keep the current theme
[12:48] <masterloki> sx66, dont do that
[12:48] <masterloki> instead in terminal just do beryl-manager
[12:48] <jander99> sx66, when you ctrl+alt+backspace you restart X and it unloads beryl.
[12:48] <masterloki> you can push enter and its done no need for the &
[12:48] <masterloki> and that way your not killing the program before it writes its stuff
[12:48] <riotkittie> I need to switch to wireless fulltime, and I'm having issues. At one point, I was able to connect and nm-applet would give me a list of networks. now nm-app is saying "no network devices have been found", and in network tools, ath0 shows as an unrecognized device. the card does show in lspci and iwconfig and ifconfig
[12:48] <masterloki> also
[12:48] <jimmygoon> wait, sx66, why are you pressing ctrl=alt=backspace?
[12:48] <masterloki> exit beryl by right clicking and closing the thingie
[12:49] <masterloki> or is there further problems as in bsod wsod freeze etc?
[12:49] <m1r> crdlb , http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23794/
[12:49] <MrWGW-> haha sorry
[12:49] <masterloki> [yeah what jimmygoon said] 
[12:49] <MrWGW-> when I reenabled the MAC filtering
[12:49] <jimmygoon> sx66, further more, beryl/metacity use different border "engine".... so they will be iffernet
[12:49] <MrWGW-> I inadvertantly set it to "deny only" rather than "allow only"
[12:49] <jimmygoon> MrWGW  ;) I had a feeling about that one
[12:50] <MrWGW-> however
[12:50] <crdlb> m1r, yep: [drm]  failed to load kernel module "mach64"
[12:50] <crdlb> afaik it can't work
[12:50] <crdlb> because ubuntu doesn't ship that kernel module
[12:50] <MrWGW-> however, note that disabling the Mac filter had NO effect on my connection woes
[12:50] <m1r> i c
[12:50] <exspiro> is there really no way to get Conextant HD audio to play sound in Ubuntu?
[12:50] <jander99> so at this point it could be wpa perhaps.
[12:50] <jimmygoon> MrWGW-, aw :( So, MAC filtering IS off though, for now
[12:50] <smallfoot-> hey, i found this image on the internets http://zune-downloadz.com/designedforubuntu.jpg
[12:50] <smallfoot-> can you have a logo like that on computer?
[12:50] <smallfoot-> where you get a sticker like that?
[12:50] <m1r> is there a point to try to make it work ?
[12:51] <MrWGW-> no, its back on
[12:51] <jimmygoon> jander99, sorry I keep saying this, but does the IP address not imply that he is authenticated and connected to the router, esp if he can ping it?
[12:51] <m1r> i tryed with some beta drivers but i messed all up
[12:51] <jander99> yeah im still having my coffee, sorry lol
[12:52] <MrWGW-> note that I can ping the router (its pretty much the only bit of connectivity that that computer is capable of)
[12:52] <MrWGW-> I'm tempted to attempt to reset the router
[12:52] <MrWGW-> to see if that has any impact
[12:52] <riotkittie> :(
[12:52] <jander99> MrWGW, since you're able to ping the router, are you able to ping any other devices on the network?
[12:52] <Tru7h> Where is the application data for firefox kept?
[12:52] <MrWGW-> well let me find out
[12:52] <jimmygoon> Yea, can you ping your Suse Computer?
[12:53] <snerfu> What would be good to use make a video of stuff I am doing on the desktop?
[12:53] <riotkittie> i feel so. dirty. having been stuck in windows for two days. :\  my laptop's never been soooo useless.
[12:53] <jimmygoon> snerfu, depends, xvidcap, beryl has a vidcap plugin, etc
[12:53] <Tru7h> Bookmarks, profiles, etc?
[12:53] <jimmygoon> snerfu, there is something called xev I believe
[12:53] <jrib> Tru7h: ~/.mozilla/firefox/
[12:53] <snerfu> thanks jimmygoon.
[12:53] <Fawa1> is there a way to install ubuntu server with Xserver ?
[12:53] <Tru7h> What is ~ though?
[12:53] <jander99> ~ is your home directory
[12:54] <exspiro> how can i get AUDIO to work
[12:54] <jrib> Tru7h: /home/your_user
[12:54] <jander99> /home/username
[12:54] <Tru7h> Okay, thanks
[12:54] <gif89apro> !virtualization
[12:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about virtualization - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:54] <m1r> ok , tnx for help guys i probably will try again to use beta drivers, maybe this time more luck
[12:54] <MrWGW-> no, I can't ping any devices other than the router
[12:54] <MrWGW-> and yes, I am using valid IP addresses
[12:54] <MrWGW-> I attempted to ping every other DHCP client...
[12:54] <snerfu> what are you doing the virt with gif89apro?
[12:54] <jander99> what router are you using?
[12:54] <jrib> !virtualization > gif89apro (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:55] <MrWGW-> Linksys WR54 G v8
[12:55] <Fawa1> is there a way to have ubuntu server installed with the gui X server ?
[12:55] <MrWGW-> I just bought it yesterday
[12:55] <MrWGW-> if this is a router problem I'm taking it back
[12:55] <jander99> wow they're up to version 8 of that model now? heh
[12:55] <jimmygoon> Isn't that the one that has all the other alt firmwares?
[12:55] <jrib> Fawa1: install it afterwards
[12:55] <jander99> no jimmy
[12:55] <MrWGW-> up to version 5
[12:55] <jander99> well, yes jimmy, but not after v5
[12:55] <jimmygoon> ah
[12:55] <jimmygoon> Why have a server with X?
[12:55] <jander99> or the GL models
[12:55] <Fawa1> jrib: that's what i'm doin but i'm having problem having it running
[12:55] <MrWGW-> the GL models will run anything you want
[12:56] <MrWGW-> pretty much
[12:56] <gif89apro> snerfu: trying to run my xp partition from ubuntu
[12:56] <MrWGW-> dd-wrt, etc
[12:56] <MrWGW-> I'm tempted to take that router back and order a GL...
[12:56] <gif89apro> jrib: thanks
[12:56] <jander99> Yes I use DD-WRT on my GL
[12:56] <jander99> I would WGW, but I'm biased hehe
[12:56] <jrib> Fawa1: tell us what you did and what problems you are experiencing
[12:56] <MrWGW-> do you think I should attempt to do a router reset at this time to test that?
[12:56] <jander99> none of your other devices are currently in need of your internet connection are they MrWGW? save for the connection to irc
[12:57] <jimmygoon> MrWGW-, maybe just power cycle it for now...
[12:57] <brimiles> when you try and run the live cd to install, is it supposed to be incredibly slow... like take well over an hour to load completely?
[12:57] <MrWGW-> ok, I'll power cycle it
[12:57] <MrWGW-> BRB
[12:57] <jimmygoon> brimiles, absolutely not
[12:57] <Quintin> rimiles: no
[12:57] <jimmygoon> brimilies, is it getting stuck on a certain command that you can see?
[12:58] <jander99> have you tried both the normal live cd and the safe graphics mode brimilies?
[12:58] <Fawa1> jrib : after installing the Xserver-Xorg package .. i tried running Xserver but i get punch of errors .. some of them "could not open device /dev/input/wacom
[12:58] <jrib> Fawa1: do you have a mouse?
[12:58] <jander99> do you have a tablet Fawa1?
[12:58] <Fawa1> jrib: yes
[12:58] <jrib> Fawa1: pastebin the full error
[12:59] <jimmygoon> that might be hard w/o X
[12:59] <Fawa1> jander99: just mouse
[12:59] <gif89apro> is it possible to use qemu (or something similar) to run an os from an existing partition? or do they all require creating its own virtual machine?
[12:59] <jrib> jimmygoon: why?
[12:59] <foo> How can I turn off -- MARK -- in the /var/log/messages? And what's the point of it anyways?
[12:59] <jimmygoon> jrib, how do you copy/paste w/o pastebin?

[12:59] <ubotu> I am ubotu, all-knowing infobot. You can browse my brain at http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl - Usage info: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuBots
[12:59] <jrib> jimmygoon: screen, but no need to copy and apste
[12:59] <Fawa1> jrib: how can i capture the whole errors "could not scroll up"?
[01:00] <wayne_> hello everybody
[01:00] <jander99> the errors should be in your Xorg.0.log file right?
[01:00] <DigitalisAkujin> Is there a video player similiar to "media player classic" available for linux?
[01:01] <jrib> Fawa1: cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | netcat jrib.dyndns.org 12345
[01:01] <jimmygoon> jrib, yeah, that or ssh I realized...
[01:01] <jander99> MrWGW, wb
[01:01] <MrWGW> well, power cycling the router had no effect :(
[01:01] <jimmygoon> that is unfortunate
[01:01] <MrWGW> the problem has to be on that PC somewhere
[01:01] <sx66> my screen turns black when beryl is loaded, same with firefox
[01:01] <MrWGW> I just hope this doesn't happen to my Mac running Feisty
[01:02] <jimmygoon> jrib, do you have a guide of how you set that up dyndns+netcat? I would like to get something like that setup for myself
[01:02] <MrWGW> that Mac has been off for about a week, when I bring it back online I'm really hoping this won't happen...
[01:02] <SkiffX> http://www.madman2k.net/article/69   < check this out guys
[01:03] <MrWGW> would you suggest I attempt to upgrade to Feisty?
[01:03] <jrib> jimmygoon: it's a small python script, let me pastebin it for you: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23797/ .  It's not my original idea.  unfortunately, I don't remember whos it was
[01:03] <MrWGW> or would that be unlikely to fix the problem if NetworkManager is already installed
[01:04] <jander99> how would you upgrade without a network connection though?
[01:04] <jander99> other than use a livecd
[01:04] <jimmygoon> jrib, thank you
[01:04] <MrWGW> plug it into one of the router's ethernet ports
[01:04] <jander99> hmm I have a question
[01:04] <MrWGW> ?
[01:04] <jander99> have you tried that yet?
[01:04] <jander99> and does it succeed?
[01:04] <lockd> DigitalisAkujin: there are plenty of media players for Linux.. there is probably an equally lightweight one
[01:04] <Fawa1> jrib: need to connect internet cable to the server to netcat the log then will be back.. thanks for trying to help

[01:11] <MrWGW> not sure actually
[01:11] <EsersFckd> don' t have a xp cd
[01:11] <premier_> hello, my compy has recently started to blank the screen and become unresponsive after a period of time.  Before I was able to alt-ctrl-esc and log back in, but the last time it happened I couldn't do that and had to reboot my computer.  I was watching a movie, and I could still hear the movie playing but not see it.
[01:11] <mneptok> MrWGW: is the machine booted now?
[01:11] <jander99> how many interfaces does ifconfig show MrWGW?
[01:11] <MrWGW> hold on
[01:11] <EsersFckd> gnome partitioner shows that the HDD was not resized and that it is till used and old size
[01:11] <MrWGW> oh it does show the ethernet interface jander
[01:11] <MrWGW> eth0
[01:11] <EsersFckd> but windows won' t start
[01:11] <MrWGW> versus wifi, which is eth1
[01:11] <lockd> EsersFckd: you can still try to recover by using foremost or something else if you can't mount the ntfs
[01:12] <EsersFckd> help to mount ntfs in live cd
[01:12] <EsersFckd> please
[01:12] <Fawa1> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23799/
[01:12] <marek> somone with coreutils-6.9 running, please?
[01:12] <mneptok> MrWGW: "ifconfig eth0" and do you see an IP address?
[01:12] <Fawa1> jrib: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23799/
[01:12] <MrWGW> actually it looks like it did not get an IP address
[01:12] <chamunks> whats the command to check free space via command line i cant recall how to do that and i cant remember how i partitioned my server so it would help lots
[01:13] <larson9999> linux rocks!
[01:13] <jrib> Fawa1: can you pastebin xorg.conf too?
[01:13] <MrWGW> I know that because it does not show up in the router's DHCP client table
[01:13] <marek> chamunks: df
[01:13] <MrWGW> (all IP addresses are accounted for)
[01:13] <chamunks> marek, thanks
[01:13] <mneptok> MrWGW: "ifconfig eth0" and do you see an IP address?
[01:13] <marek> chamunks: np
[01:13] <marek> chamunks: df -h for human view
[01:13] <jander99> MrWGW, "sudo dhclient eth0" and see if it grabs one for your ethernet interface
[01:13] <chamunks> marek, wicked :D
[01:13] <marek> chamunks: =)
[01:14] <MrWGW> ooh it does have an IP address actually
[01:14] <Fawa1> jrib: ok then brb
[01:14] <chamunks> marek, i only setup ssh access its a completely headless server so im forcing myself to learn the cmd line
[01:14] <MrWGW> the IP it had I thought another box had...
[01:14] <EsersFckd> please help someone the sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda1 /media/windows doesn' t work
[01:14] <steve_> anyone know where the php executable is located under fiesty?
[01:15] <jander99> heh. can you ping google now
[01:15] <jander99> Esers, try /dev/sda1 instead of /dev/hda1
[01:15] <EsersFckd> ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -t ntfs /dev/hda2 /media/windows
[01:15] <EsersFckd> mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda2,
[01:15] <EsersFckd>        missing codepage or other error
[01:15] <EsersFckd>        In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
[01:15] <EsersFckd>        dmesg | tail  or so
[01:15] <MrWGW> no
[01:16] <ompaul> EsersFckd, you wrote two differntn things
[01:16] <c0ldfront> ...
[01:16] <DVS01> whats a good server-side spam filtering solution?
[01:16] <jander99> I'm seriously stumped on this one.
[01:16] <c0ldfront> spam as in email spam?
[01:16] <marek> jrib, ompaul nice reflex.
[01:17] <ompaul> EsersFckd, so you talk about two different disks in your messages
[01:17] <DVS01> yes, email spam
[01:17] <smallfoot-> my cat bit me
[01:17] <MrWGW> there is doubtless something seriously wrong in the networking config on that box
[01:17] <smallfoot-> i bit her back
[01:17] <smallfoot-> that should teach her
[01:17] <EsersFckd> doesn' t work
[01:17] <smallfoot-> not to mess with me
[01:17] <MrWGW> a reinstall I guess is the "duh" solution
[01:17] <marek> POKE's back.
[01:17] <jander99> well, lets try to avaid that MrWGW
[01:17] <DVS01> i know that there are online databases that can be used by mail server plugins, spamassassin, other stuff, etc.. i havent done any research though, so i need a good starting point
[01:17] <marek> somone with coreutils-6.9 running, please?
[01:18] <purpzey> Can someone tell me how to set a particular wireless network as the preferred network?
[01:18] <Fawa1> jrib: posted xorg.cong http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23800/
[01:18] <ptrg> hi everyone, i have my system setup to print websites to a pdf. but they are not searchable. Any ideas on how to do this?
[01:18] <MrWGW> if beagle searches PDF text that might be the answer, not sure if it does though
[01:18] <jrib> Fawa1: comment the   Load "dri"   line and the wacom stuff
[01:19] <crimsun> marek: there is no Ubuntu release that ships newer than 5.97
[01:19] <marek> crimsun: :/ ok thanks a lot
[01:19] <marek> have a nice day ubuntu guys!
[01:19] <MrWGW> I thought Feisty was 7.04?
[01:19] <crimsun> MrWGW: it is.
[01:20] <jander99> crimson was talking about the coreutils package not having a version greater than 5.97
[01:20] <Imaginativeone> can someone help?
[01:20] <MrWGW> well I guess I'm going to do a reinstall, probably Mandriva, and hope that my Ubuntu-running Mac doesn't run into the same problem when I bring it back online...
[01:20] <MrWGW> It probably won
[01:20] <Imaginativeone> I'm installing Ubuntu...
[01:20] <MrWGW> won't though
[01:20] <MrWGW> since it is Feisty and probably has Network Manager installed, and it lacks VMWare
[01:20] <MrWGW> which I think is contributing to the problem
[01:21] <dibblego> anyone know a web page or keywords to search, for what hardware to buy to run a PC for watching videos, music, etc.?
[01:21] <yoli> hi
[01:21] <MrWGW> thanks for your hlep
[01:21] <jander99> MrWGW, try Feisty, it's worked for me
[01:21] <dr_willis> dibblego,  may want to check out the varioius mythtv reccomendation's
[01:21] <Imaginativeone> dibbelgo: what do you mean?
[01:21] <dibblego> dr_willis, mythtv is software for that right?
[01:21] <dr_willis> dibblego,  but about any pc can handle those tasks
[01:21] <Mikey> hello guys, quick q, how do i make apt-get get stuff from the net and not from the cd
[01:21] <dibblego> dr_willis, yeah, I just want to buy minimalist hardware
[01:21] <dr_willis> dibblego,  mythtv is a PVR software - they have a 'database' of reccoemded hardware.
[01:22] <dibblego> Mikey, remove the reference to the cdrom source in /etc/apt/sources.list and apt-get update
[01:22] <smallfoot-> recommended.
[01:22] <dibblego> dr_willis, ok thanks
[01:22] <dr_willis> dibblego,  about any nvidia card, audigy sound, and whatver else ya can afford.
[01:22] <Imaginativeone> dibblego: also have a look at KnoppMyth and Mythdora...
[01:22] <dr_willis> Tv tuner optional :)
[01:22] <purpzey> How do I set a particular wireless network as the preferred network?
[01:22] <dibblego> what is PVR?
[01:23] <smallfoot-> Personal video recorder.
[01:23] <Imaginativeone> sounds like dibblego is interested in being a Tivo competitor...
[01:23] <Tormentid> i have a separate hard drive with ubuntu on it, but ubuntu does not work for me. is there a way to merge the whole harddrive into just one or two partitions? without have to use the ubuntu cd? I just want to erase the whole harddrive and start over resized as NTSF?
[01:23] <Mikey> thanks dibblego
[01:24] <dr_willis> Tormentid,  merging 2 seperate hard drives?  or are you miss-stating somthing?
[01:24] <dr_willis> a singld hard drive can hold several partitions.
[01:24] <Imaginativeone> I need help installing Ubuntu onto a laptop...
[01:24] <purpzey> dr_willis: It seems to me he is talkin about a partition...just what it reads like
[01:24] <purpzey> Imaginativeone: Ask your question.
[01:24] <Tormentid> sorry i worded that weird, i have 2 harddrives... my second one just needs to be reformated pretty much it has ubuntu on it that is not working for me
[01:25] <dr_willis> Tormentid,  so fdisk it partition it, then format it.
[01:25] <purpzey> Tormentid: So, what not just install Ubuntu over it and reformat?
[01:25] <Imaginativeone> I need help installing Ubuntu onto a laptop...
[01:26] <Imaginativeone> I need help installing Ubuntu onto a laptop...
[01:26] <purpzey> Imaginativeone: Ask your question.
[01:26] <dr_willis> Imaginativeone,  care to elaborate on that?
[01:26] <Fawa1> jrib: when i comment the wacom stuff and the load dri i get error "no screens found"
[01:26] <Imaginativeone> oh...sorry
[01:26] <dr_willis> put in live cd.. click install...
[01:26] <Tormentid> i had to use some break=top and modprobe piix and some other stuff just to install it... its weird and i dont konw how to get to the reformat screen like in the cd
[01:26] <Tormentid> i dont think it will work for me i tried installing it twice
[01:26] <Imaginativeone> my laptop has 200 MHz, 192MB, 5GB
[01:26] <Imaginativeone> will Ubuntu install?
[01:27] <dr_willis> Imaginativeone,  a 200mhz Pent 1 ?
[01:27] <Imaginativeone> yup
[01:27] <purpzey> Imaginativeone: Just my thought, but xubuntu might be better for you.....
[01:27] <Imaginativeone> yeah...trying to install that now
[01:27] <jrib> Fawa1: that's the only error in the log?
[01:27] <dr_willis> it will be very slow. I advise checking out PuppyLinux
[01:27] <Imaginativeone> it looks like it sucks
[01:27] <Imaginativeone> wish me lucks
[01:27] <spaceraver>  hmm, i have hosed my system (again)
[01:27] <spaceraver> think it's the NTFS-3G drivers.. but how do i get to the cli and remove it??
[01:27] <dr_willis> i installed on a Pent1 system and it took like 2 hrs+ to install.
[01:28] <dr_willis> of course i used the shell on it.
[01:28] <Imaginativeone> LOL
[01:28] <Aerotwelve> Hey everyone: I just attempted this guide for my Broadcom 0x4311 wireless card http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=193350 .My wifi light turned on, but I don't see my connection in the Gnome Network Settings. Anyone have any ideas?
[01:28] <Imaginativeone> ah - that actually explains a lot
[01:28] <Imaginativeone> I thought something was going wrong...
[01:28] <smallfoot-> dr_willis, want to play doctor with me?
[01:28] <Imaginativeone> perhaps it's just too slow
[01:28] <smallfoot-> gcosmin, mount it
[01:28] <riotkittie> gcosmin: did you mount it?
[01:28] <dr_willis> Imaginativeone,  it will be very slow. :)
[01:28] <dr_willis> Imaginativeone,  to install
[01:29] <Imaginativeone> thanks for the heads-up
[01:29] <Tormentid> dr willis, fdisk will reformat and resize the whole thing for me on windows? i read on the forums that partition magic did not work for someone which is the program i have on cd right now
[01:29] <Fawa1> jrib: relooking at log again
[01:29] <dr_willis> Tormentid,  fdisk sets up the partitions, whichyou then format.
[01:29] <Tormentid> oh, thanks
[01:29] <jrib> Fawa1: check that the BusID is correct too
[01:29] <dr_willis> Tormentid,  or just use the linux fdisk and delete the partitions then remake them under windows.. Or use gparted todo all this. I wouldent touch partition magic at all.
[01:30] <gcosmin> smallfoot- but after restart it can't see it
[01:30] <riotkittie> you can use partition magic but i'd have your data backed up and dont mind a restore. or dont care about your data ;p
[01:30] <Fawa1> jrib: let me have a look
[01:30] <jrib> Fawa1: actually, try running 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' if you haven't yet
[01:30] <spaceraver> gcosmin: you have to remount it
[01:30] <Tormentid> to remake them in windows do i just put in my windows xp cd to set them up or is there a command i can use to skip and go right to it?
[01:30] <riotkittie> partition magic has absolutely hosed my system 7 times
[01:30] <smallfoot-> gcosmin, then put it in /etc/fstab
[01:30] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: I have been trying to get a Broadcom 4318 to work for over a week...I'll take a look at the forum...Have you 1) Rebooted, 2) Tried (if you have one) pressing the Fn + Wifi key, or Wifi Button, and 3) Using WiFiRadar?
[01:31] <gcosmin> spaceraver on fdisk -l can't see noting
[01:31] <spaceraver> wierd
[01:31] <dr_willis> Tormentid,  windows has its diskmanagement stuff.
[01:31] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: I've rebooted, but I'll try again. I've tried, and that didn't seem to do anything, and I'm not sure what WiFiRadar is, can you explain?
[01:31] <Tormentid> ok, i'll search online more about the stuff you said, thanks alot
[01:31] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: I believe it's just a different network manager...It seemed on the forums that other people had had success with it.
[01:31] <jerm> I have Ubuntu 7.04 installed, is there a way I can install KDE ?
[01:32] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Hmm, I'll install it.
[01:32] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: You made sure to blacklist the other driver?
[01:32] <spaceraver> jerm: install kubuntu-desktop
[01:33] <spaceraver> jerm: make that sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[01:33] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: Also, what is the output of ndiswrapper -l ?
[01:33] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: I was reading something about that, and I wasn't sure how to do that. Can you explain?
[01:33] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: The blacklist?
[01:34] <Aerotwelve> purpzeu: Yeah
[01:35] <Aerotwelve> Hmm, I may have setup my ndiswrapper wrong.
[01:35] <Brandon_> [19:34:22]  [Brandon_]  (EE) Problem parsing the config file
[01:35] <Brandon_> [19:34:32]  [Brandon_]  (EE) Error parsing the config file
[01:35] <Brandon_> any idea's?
[01:35] <spaceraver> anyone have an idea how to get to the cli at boot.. it seems ntfs-3g broke my system.. along with kernel update
[01:35] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: I may have setup my ndiswrapper wrong. Typing ndiswrapper -l yields a ls: /etc/ndiswrapper: No such file or directory
[01:36] <Mikey> erm, i think i screwed up my /etc/apt/sources.list file
[01:36] <shane_> Anyone know how to get the music from my laptop (xp) to my pc (ubuntu) ?
[01:36] <Fawa1> jrib: i get error AIGLX: DRI moudle not loaded
[01:37] <spaceraver> shane_: how do you meaan
[01:37] <spaceraver> mean*
[01:37] <Fawa1> jrib: because i commented it right!
[01:37] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: Sounds like it. Sounds like ndiswrapper is looking for the driver somewhere and the driver is somewhere else...something of that nature. I'd blacklist the other driver first, and see where you are.
[01:37] <shane_> spaceraver: I have files on my xp laptop, and I want to get the files onto my ubuntu desktop to burn them to cd (my laptop does not have a cd-r)
[01:37] <Hillview> hi, all.. any ideas why apci would cause my pc to reboot starting X, and how I can fix it?
[01:38] <jrib> Fawa1: well last time it said: (EE) AIGLX: Screen 0 is not DRI capable
[01:38] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: In fact, what'd probably be best is to blacklist the old driver, THEN reconfigure ndiswrapper anew.
[01:38] <spaceraver> shane_: applications -> shared folders
[01:38] <gcosmin> who can tell me what problem can i have with my USB HDD?
[01:38] <Mikey> can anyone point me to correcly formed sources.list file?
[01:38] <spaceraver> shane_: make a share you can access on your ubuntu box
[01:38] <Fawa1> jrib: yes i relized that..hmmm can't think of anything else to fix it
[01:39] <Gallius> where are the icons located (on the hdd) for the default ubuntu theme?
[01:39] <shane_> Spaceraver: I can't find shared folders
[01:39] <spaceraver> hmm..
[01:39] <jrib> Fawa1: well before we try anything else, try running that reconfigure command
[01:39] <fb> hi! where are all the .deb packages located? i want to save them, so i don't need to download them when reinstalling...
[01:39] <jrib> fb: /var/cache/apt/
[01:39] <fb> thanks, jrib
[01:40] <shane_> spaceraver: How do I make a share
[01:40] <Fawa1> jrib: yeah that's what i'm thinking .. let me try running it
[01:40] <spaceraver> shane_: then install samba
[01:40] <Hillview> or, is there an easy way to disable power management in feisty?
[01:40] <shane_> spaceraver: how?
[01:41] <spaceraver> shane_: sudo apt-get install samba
[01:41] <shane_> spaceraver: I am installing samba via synaptic
[01:41] <Sir-Integra> hey, for some reason, aMSN runs really sluggish - i have a dual core pentium - 1gb ram
[01:41] <crdlb> Fawa1, what video card do you have?
[01:41] <purpzey> I've got a curious small problem going here...My "battery monitory" gnome applet is still running, it is in the panel, but it is squeezed between two other applets such that, it is literally barely visible, anyone have a suggestion on that?
[01:41] <Sir-Integra> anyone have any ideas why it would be running sluggish?
[01:41] <fb> forgot to mention: i'm on edgy. it's /var/cache/apt/archives, but thanks for pointing me to the right direction!
[01:42] <spaceraver> shane_: got samba installed yet??
[01:42] <ultm8> ok i need some1s help desperately.... am running fiesty fawn.. all updated... and for some reason i cannot get my 8800gtx graphics card to work
[01:42] <rickympl> good evening, anyone know how to view mail sent byt sendmail?
[01:42] <ultm8> any help would be appreciated
[01:42] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Sorry, I left for a bit. Can you explain how to blacklist the remaining driver?
[01:42] <Sir-Integra> rickympl, go into /var/mail
[01:42] <spaceraver> ultm8: get it to work how
[01:42] <shane_> spaceraver: apparently, yes
[01:42] <Sir-Integra> i'm pretty sure it stores all sent mail and recieved mail there.
[01:42] <spaceraver> good
[01:42] <rickympl> Sir-Integra:- thx
[01:43] <ultm8> 3dfx wise soz Shane ;)
[01:43] <ultm8> i installed it earlier 2day using the nvidia source drivers
[01:43] <shane_> spaceraver: Hello?
[01:43] <ultm8> but then had to format because of installing windows on partition doh!
[01:43] <purpzey> Aerotwelve:  Yes.  sudo gedit /etc/moprobe.d/blacklist and add the line blacklist bcm43xx   carefully and don't mess with other things.
[01:44] <ultm8> but for the love of god, i cant seem to reinstall?
[01:44] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: Add it at the bottom
[01:44] <ultm8> is there a way to do it via synaptic?
[01:44] <spaceraver> shane_: sorry, was running a few other things i had to tend to'
[01:44] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Alright, that driver is blacklisted.
[01:45] <ev`> Hi, is it possible to remove OpenOffice.org from Ubuntu? I've tried with Synaptic but I get some strange errors... :(
[01:45] <rescon> is there a publisher alternative for ubuntu?
[01:45] <foxx> hey guys, how do i install a monitor from with in the recovery mode
[01:45] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: and ndiswrapper -l same output?
[01:45] <shane_> spaceraver: So, what do I do now
[01:45] <foxx> my xserver is telling me that the monitor couldnt be found
[01:45] <ultm8> ok i guess no1 can help me :(
[01:46] <ultm8> how about this then... i have 2 onboard network cards...
[01:46] <spaceraver> shane_:put this in your browser http://localhost:901
[01:46] <ultm8> and every time i boot
[01:46] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: yep, still giving that directory error.
[01:46] <ultm8> it always chooses the network card which is not plugged into the net?
[01:46] <ultm8> can any1 tell me how to change this behaviour?
[01:46] <purpzey> Hrmmm ok.
[01:46] <Sir-Integra> anyone have any idea or reasons for why my aMSN runs sluggish and ends up eating most of my cpu when i run it?
[01:47] <sebas_> how can I avoid my computer answering pings?
[01:47] <shane_> spaceraver:Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost:901.
[01:47] <ultm8> whats wrong with gaim, kopete or pidgin purpzey?
[01:47] <Sir-Integra> gaim doesn't run the way i liked it
[01:47] <ultm8> r
[01:47] <Sir-Integra> i removed it and tried to reinstall.
[01:47] <daylighter> I love Pidgin
[01:47] <ultm8> how about kopete?
[01:47] <cesar_> you know, i REALLY WISH they would let us know when they change the device names from sda to hda back and forth, it would save me countless hours of time trying to figure out why my hard drive "broke"
[01:47] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: First thing I'd recommend is to walk through the ndiswrapper as it's described in the guide. . . It seems like you may have messed up the setup or something.
[01:47] <Mikey> i get couldnt find package error when trying to apt-get something, what gives?
[01:47] <ultm8> am using pidgin to talk on here  ;)
[01:47] <Sir-Integra> apparently it's a bad peice of software
[01:48] <Sir-Integra> pidgin wouldn't install for me
[01:48] <daylighter> what's the naming difference between HDA and SDA anyway?
[01:48] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Alright, how do I remove the previous install? I assume I'd have to get a clean reinstall, correct?
[01:48] <shane_> spaceraver: Hello?
[01:48] <cesar_> i dont know, but when your etc fstab has /dev/sda1 and it changes to hda1, things break
[01:48] <^majik^> IDE and SCSI I think
[01:48] <ultm8> well gaim is the same thing really but pidgin is an updated version
[01:48] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: I believe you can just go ahead and install over.
[01:48] <spaceraver> shane_: is samba running
[01:48] <shane_> spaceraver: no
[01:49] <Sir-Integra> checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
[01:49] <Sir-Integra> See `config.log' for more details.
[01:49] <Sir-Integra> when trying to ./configure pidgin
[01:49] <ultm8> oh
[01:49] <ultm8> their is a debian file Sir-Integra
[01:49] <Sir-Integra> their is?
[01:49] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Alright, I'll install it real quick. Where do we extract the tar at? I extracted it on the desktop. Does it matter?
[01:49] <Sir-Integra> there*
[01:49] <ultm8> hold on will find it for u
[01:49] <Thorn> Wow
[01:49] <Thorn> big channel
[01:49] <Sir-Integra> I couldn't seem to find one.
[01:49] <shane_> spaceraver: Hello?
[01:49] <Fructose> My sound has stopped working. I don't want to have to reboot. I killed all applications I can find that I know use sound, but they still don't work when I re-open them. Volume on speakers and on sound controller are on. Any suggestions?
[01:50] <foxx> how do i install my monitor, in text mode
[01:50] <Thorn> Hello Ubuntu-ers
[01:50] <Sir-Integra> Fructose, why don't you want to reboot?
[01:50] <spaceraver> !tell shane_ about samba
[01:50] <Thorn> I am experiencing very slow execute/read times on my Linux partitions on SATA
[01:50] <Fawa1> jrib: same problem
[01:50] <shane_> Spaceraver: Can you help me...
[01:50] <Thorn> I load my NTFS partitions fine on ubuntu
[01:50] <Aerotwelve> !samba
[01:50] <ubotu> samba is is the way to cooperate with Windows environments. Links with more info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently and http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/windows-networking.html - Samba can be administered via the web with SWAT
[01:50] <shane_> !spaceraver | samba
[01:50] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about spaceraver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:51] <shane_> ooh
[01:51] <jrib> Fawa1: get rid of glx too
[01:51] <Thorn> I have the same syntoms on ext3 and ReiserFS
[01:51] <shane_> !samba | spaceraver
[01:51] <Fructose> Sir-Integra: I have things running I don't want to interrupt. And having to reboot is a bad thing and I don't want to have to tell people "I sometimes have to reboot to get my sound working."
[01:51] <Sir-Integra> !samba | spacereaver
[01:51] <ubotu> spaceraver: please see above
[01:51] <Sir-Integra> ;)
[01:51] <Fawa1> jrib: i think i need to choose the right screen configuartion maybe?
[01:51] <ubotu> spacereaver: please see above
[01:51] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: I'm not sure it matters where you extract it to, read the install...I'm not positive, the documentation will definitely say.
[01:51] <cesar_> ARGH
[01:51] <cesar_> my firewire card isnt detected anymore
[01:51] <cesar_> wtf
[01:51] <ultm8> http://download.ubuntu.pl/_Feisty_Fawn/pidgin/ < njoy Sir-Integra
[01:51] <daylighter> wow
[01:51] <Sir-Integra> Fructose, true, i'm not really  a linux expert, i couldn't help you.
[01:51] <spaceraver> shane_: from what i know you need samba to share files with a windows box
[01:51] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Alright, thanks. Sorry, I'm used to Windows, and I'm still learning the workings of the filesystem.
[01:51] <Sir-Integra> I hope to god that's not in polish ;)
[01:52] <daylighter> I wonder why my drives were called sda when all of mine are IDE
[01:52] <spaceraver> and xubuntugives me the option to do so via a gui
[01:52] <premier_> Hi, my computer has been going blank and unresponsive if I leave it alone... I have to reboot.
[01:52] <shane_> spaceraver: Yes and I'm waiting for you to tell me how...
[01:52] <foxx> how do i install my monitor from within the reconvery (text mode)
[01:52] <ultm8> no it works fine ;)
[01:52] <premier_> hello, my compy has recently started to blank the scBefore I was able to alt-ctrl-esc and log back in, but the last time it happened I couldn't do that and had to reboot my computer.
[01:52] <bruenig> foxx, sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg or edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf if you know what you are doing (which you probably don't)
[01:53] <spaceraver> shane_: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=202605 that's what i followed when i wanted it to work
[01:53] <Fawa1> jrib
[01:53] <Fawa1> jrib: the dri error gone now but i get another one :(
[01:53] <Stratos> n
[01:53] <premier_> last time I was watching a movie, and I could still hear the sound, but I couldn't bring up the screen
[01:53] <Fructose> Anyone know of any documentation explaining how ALSA/OSS work and why there are so many problems with sound in Linux?
[01:53] <daylighter> oh god, I remember the days of using peanut linux and doing xfree86config
[01:53] <Sir-Integra> premier_,  what player are you using?
[01:53] <ultm8> use vlc player premier_
[01:53] <Thorn> Hey, could anyone answer my question about slow SATA read/exec times only on Linux Partitions (Ext3 and ReiserFS) ?
[01:53] <premier_> Sir-Integra, ultm8 its not a multimedia problem
[01:53] <Sir-Integra> i use vlc, i had the same problem when i installed beryl.
[01:53] <bastid_raZor> or Mplayer
[01:53] <bruenig> Fructose, there are not so many problems with sound in linux. OSS is the old sound implementation that sucked, ALSA is new and works great. Sometimes legacy apps that still use OSS can pose problems but that is very rare
[01:53] <Sir-Integra> ah, ok.
[01:54] <premier_> I think it might be related to fglrx, im not sure
[01:54] <ultm8> right i gotta go find out this problem with my 8800gtx card
[01:54] <Fawa1> jrib: a punch of could not init font path element  errors . then at the buttom fatal server error: " could not open default font 'fixed'
[01:54] <Fructose> bruenig: Well, I have problems and the only sound applications I'm using are Totem, VLC, and Firefox with Flash
[01:54] <ultm8> later people
[01:54] <bruenig> Fructose, oh well if you have problems, then very clearly it is an OS wide problem
[01:54] <premier_> but it seems like a hidden screensaver or an attempt to hibernate, even though I've attempted to disable every screen saver and suspend routine I can find
[01:54] <shane_> spaceraver: Just tell me exactly what I need to do
[01:55] <jrib> Fawa1: oh I missed that
[01:55] <Fawa1> jrib: i used to get those errors the first log i post bined
[01:55] <shane_> spaceraver: To establish a connection between my ubuntu and my laptop
[01:55] <bastid_raZor> your bios also has a powersaver mode you may want to check
[01:55] <foxx> how do i start the xserver in text mode
[01:55] <Fructose> bruenig: I'm afraid it's not just this machine or even just this distro.
[01:55] <daylighter> how do I keep gnome from saving my session when I log off, and make it stop opening nautilus windows and music software at bootup?
[01:55] <Fawa1> foxx: type X
[01:55] <foxx> ok
[01:55] <foxx> lol
[01:55] <foxx> thanks
[01:56] <Fawa1> foxx: :)
[01:56] <Fructose> bruenig: Which certainly makes it seem like a problem with ALSA/OSS.
[01:56] <spaceraver> shane_: get samba running, and make a share
[01:56] <bruenig> Fructose, perhaps it is your hardware or yoru configuration. I have never had any problems, I can have all three of those things you mentioned plus exaile and mplayer going and it all works
[01:56] <foxx> it keeps telling me that no screens found
[01:56] <shane_> spaceraver: how do I get it running...
[01:56] <jrib> Fawa1: xfonts-base is installed?
[01:56] <beau__> is there a way to force a command-line application to ctl-c itself after some time limit?
[01:56] <Fructose> bruenig: Often, I can run several at once as well. However, often I run into issues like the one I have now, where absolutely no sound is coming out at all.
[01:56] <bruenig> beau__, firefox && sleep 10 && killall firefox-bin
[01:57] <Fawa1> jrib: i don't think so let me check
[01:57] <Fructose> bruenig: This is an improvement, at least. In older versions of Ubuntu, I could only play one sound app at a time, in many cases.
[01:57] <beau__> bruenig: thanks, I'll play with this
[01:57] <MultiFinder17> Can the 7.04 installer partition an HFS+ drive on a MacBook?
[01:57] <shane_> spaceraver: How do I get samba running will you answer please.
[01:57] <spaceraver> shane_: install gsambad via synaptic
[01:57] <daylighter> yeah, Fructose, when I used edgy and the one before, I could only play sound at one time
[01:57] <spaceraver> that is the gui tool for samba
[01:57] <bruenig> Fructose, sounds almost like you are using flash 7 which I doubt. Either way, it is your computer and your setup not the kernel or something as preposterous
[01:57] <Fawa1> foxx: run the configueration command sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[01:57] <bastid_raZor> possibly buy a better sound card?
[01:58] <shane_> spaceraver: What is gsambad? I have samba and samba-common installed
[01:58] <Fructose> bruenig: ALSA is a kernel module, no?
[01:58] <daylighter> I still wish I was better at programming, I want to add a feature so that when you go to watch a flash video and you have rhythmbox/banshee/amaroK/exaile/etc running, the volume will fade out so you can hear the flash video without pausing the music, and vice-versa
[01:58] <spaceraver> shane_: the gui tool for managing samba
[01:58] <Fawa1> brb disconnecting for a bit
[01:58] <bruenig> Fructose, you miss the point, it is you, not alsa
[01:58] <shane_> spaceraver: oh good
[01:58] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Hmm, I did the above steps in the guide and it threw an error at me:  The program 'ndiswrapper' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing: sudo apt-get ndiswrapper-common
[01:58] <bastid_raZor> heh bruenig you are funny
[01:59] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: I suppose I should?
[01:59] <Fructose> bruenig: Is that what you tell everyone who comes in here with a problem that doesn't have an obvious solution?
[01:59] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: Yes, definitely need to have ndiswrapper installed...; )
[02:00] <spaceraver> shane_: to use type gksudo gsambad in a terminal or make a shortcut that goes gksudo /usr/sbin/gsambad
[02:00] <bruenig> Fructose, people who come in here and go "what is the matter with linux, my sound doesn't work" yeah, those people. or "when I click firefox from the menu, nothing happens, linux sucks"
[02:00] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Oh, I thought this tar was ndiswrapper. Oh well, I shouldn't assume too much, should I? <_<
[02:00] <shane_> spaceraver: Hi, I get this: Failed to execute child process "su-to-root" (No such file or directory
[02:01] <MultiFinder17> Anybody know if the 7.04 installer can partition an HFS+ drive on a MacBook?
[02:01] <spaceraver> shane_: open a terminal and type: gksudo gsambad
[02:01] <Fructose> bruenig: Well, then why me? I've been using Linux for years and I continue to encounter sound issues. I asked if there was any documentation on such issues. I didn't say "Linux sucks".
[02:01] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: The tar may be, but you might have to compile it...I'm not sure, I'm not looking the tar. probably have two choices...read the tar install file, or install via term...If the tar contains the drivers as well, might be good to use that one.
[02:01] <linkmaster> can i dualboot ubuntu on a vista machine
[02:02] <purpzey> linkmaster: Vista doesn't play well with others.
[02:02] <Pelo> Fructose, you might find this helpfull and informative,  or not   http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[02:02] <beau__> bruenig: how would I force the program into the background, and then kill it some time later
[02:02] <linkmaster> purpzey: so thats a no :P
[02:02] <beau__> bruenig: I get errors when I try to use & and &&
[02:02] <purpzey> linkmaster: It might be possible....
[02:02] <bruenig> Fructose, it is the generalization and the arrogance accompanying such a generalization that if you have a problem, it must be a flaw in linux. Unless you can literally cite the bug, such as this here doesn't work because X, it is annoying to me when you automatically assume such a bug exists
[02:02] <purpzey> linkmaster: But I hear it's very problematic.
[02:02] <linkmaster> oh
[02:03] <shane_> spaceraver: done that
[02:03] <daylighter> http://www.madman2k.net/article/69
[02:03] <daylighter> everyone will get a kick out of that
[02:03] <purpzey> linkmaster: I'm not even sure it is possible, someone else might know for sure..What I do know is that it is very problematic.
[02:03] <Fawaz> i'm back
[02:03] <bruenig> beau__, you can probably do this with screen, I am not too familiar with screen but from what I do know, it sounds like it could work
[02:03] <MultiFinder17> Anybody know if the 7.04 installer can partition an HFS+ drive on a MacBook? Please? I'd really like to know before I try.
[02:03] <shane_> spaceraver: hello?
[02:03] <spaceraver> shane_: hang on, i9 need to get it downloaded
[02:04] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: Just fyi, I am messing with my router, if I disappear temporarily, I'll be back a in sec.
[02:04] <Fawaz> jrib: ir starts after installing the xbase fonts but it's just huge X in the middle of the screen and no other options
[02:04] <shane_> spaceraver: it's 1 am and I have work at 8, and I'm freaking tired
[02:04] <reimorster> hi you fuckin son of a bitchs!
[02:04] <h4wk0> beau__; Have you tried nohup <command> &&
[02:04] <jrib> !language | reimorster
[02:04] <ubotu> reimorster: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[02:04] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: well, I ran apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9 and apt-get install ndiswrapper-common and I still get that error...
[02:04] <shane_> !language | reimorster
[02:04] <jrib> Fawaz: how are you starting it?
[02:04] <beau__> h4wk0: no, I will play with this, thanks
[02:04] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: I think I'm going to reboot as well, I think I'm having some apt problems
[02:04] <Fructose> bruenig: Again, I never said those things. You're imagining it. I came here to understand the problem. There is a problem, I assure you. If I understand it, maybe I can fix it. That's my line of thought, not "it's not working, it sucks." Otherwise, I would continue to pay the M$ tax.
[02:04] <Pelo> MultiFinder17,  I see  hfs_ listed in gparted so I would assume it can, but I do recall the / partiton usualy gets reformated to ext3 and  I dont, know if that default can be changed
[02:05] <linkmaster> is it possible to be running ubuntu process(es) while in WinXP (dualboot)
[02:05] <Fawaz> jrib: X
[02:05] <geokeratz> bruenig> come on. we all love Linux , but that doesn't mean it is not full of traps and difficulties.
[02:05] <reimorster> geh scheisse fressen hurensohnen...
[02:05] <Pablo___> Whadda hell!
 Anyone know of any documentation explaining how ALSA/OSS work and why there are so many problems with sound in Linux?
[02:05] <h4wk0> and to end it - killall <command> should work beau__
[02:05] <Pelo> MultiFinder17, scratch that,   I miss read,    gparted cannot create a hfs+ partiton , only read , detect, resize
[02:05] <Fructose> bruenig: Yes, "in Linux" not "because Linux sucks"
[02:05] <Pablo___> tsc
[02:05] <jrib> Fawaz: hmm, I think you want "startx", but you should install some sort of window manager first.  I recommend fluxbox for a server
[02:05] <MultiFinder17> Pelo: I was just gonna split into a large HFS+ partition for OS X, and then two smaller onws for Ubuntu and its swap.
[02:05] <daylighter> linkmaster, you can dual boot, but if you want to run ubuntu simultaneously with xp, you'll need to run it in a virtual machine, such as virtualpc
[02:06] <MultiFinder17> Pelo: So it can resize one?
[02:06] <shane_> spaceraver: hello?
[02:06] <bruenig> see it already assumes that a problem exists, hardware, user error, bad configurations are all potential answers to the problem, but you have already counted those out because someone of your caliber certainly wouldn't let those happen
[02:06] <spaceraver> shane_: answer yes to the questions asked by gsamba
[02:06] <Pelo> MultiFinder17, yes you can resize
[02:06] <shane_> spaceraver: done
[02:06] <Fawaz> jrib: window manager like Gnome u mean?
[02:06] <linkmaster> ty daylighter
[02:06] <jrib> Fawaz: yeah
[02:06] <spaceraver> shane_: click users
[02:06] <MultiFinder17> Pelo: Okay, thanks a bundle! I really don't want to mess up OS X on this machine. Thanks!
[02:06] <daylighter> np linkmaster
[02:07] <Pelo> MultiFinder17, always backup regardless
[02:07] <MultiFinder17> Will do.
[02:07] <shane_> spaceraver:done
[02:07] <clouder`grr> I did something really weird, and I don't know how I did it.  I was trying to alt-tab between windows but mashed some keys and my file menu tore away from my application.  Then I tried to emulate the same smashing of keys and the file menu want back to the application but it's not at the very top.  Anyone know how to fix this?
[02:07] <Fructose> bruenig: Hardware, user error, bad configuration, etc. can all occur "in Linux". I'm not saying it's the kernel's code that is the issue. It may be crappy vendor drivers and such. It's still "in Linux".
[02:07] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: err... can you post a screenshot?
[02:08] <clouder`grr> sure
[02:08] <shane_> spaceraver: hello? what now?
[02:08] <Pelo> clouder`grr, usualy,  select a blank area of the menu and drag it back into place
[02:08] <Fawaz> jrib: hmm yeah well first time i install xserver and stuff liek that :) good to learn
[02:08] <jrib> Fawaz: once you do that, http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php/.xinitrc
[02:08] <h4wk0> !screeshot | clouder`grr
[02:08] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about screeshot - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[02:08] <spaceraver> shane_: sorry, go to the server settings and fill in the appropriate setting such as IP and such
[02:09] <jrib> Fawaz: the simple two-liner is fine
[02:09] <Fructose> bruenig: And I continuously encounter such issues. It's not just me. It's not just my hardware. It has begun to get better with more recently releases, but it can't be perfect if I'm encountering one right now.
[02:09] <shane_> spaceraveR: how do I know all that?
[02:09] <Owner> can some one help me with my ubuntu
[02:09] <bruenig> Fructose, perhaps semantically there is a way out there. It is however analogous to me saying "there is a problem with service in this restaurant" and then later clarify saying "well I didn't mean that the restaurant service has a problem, just that service inside the restaurant is bad, like cable service" weak, but technically sound I believe
[02:09] <h4wk0> !ask | Owner
[02:09] <ubotu> Owner: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[02:09] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Hey, I'm back, and still having that problem...
[02:09] <shane_> spaceraver: ok it's done now what
[02:09] <shane_> spaceraver: please answer quickly
[02:10] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: Ok, so, when you run ndiswrapper -l you get what?
[02:10] <spaceraver> shane_: the xp laptop holds the ip info or you can use ifconfig eth0
[02:10] <Owner> im haveing trubble installing ubuntu on my ibook
[02:10] <topcat1027> where should i get help with conky?
[02:10] <Fawaz> jrib: let me try installing i'll be back :)
[02:10] <shane_> spaceraver:it's cool the info already entered was right
[02:10] <spaceraver> shane_: sorry, i dont type so fast
[02:10] <bruenig> topcat1027, what do you need
[02:10] <h4wk0> Owner; Have you downloaded the right cd?
[02:10] <shane_> spaceraver: ok what now
[02:10] <topcat1027> i just got beryl, and now my conky is messed up
[02:10] <Owner> yes
[02:10] <h4wk0> As you need the powerpc cd , Owner
[02:10] <Owner> i made sure
[02:11] <clouder`grr> Azzkikr: http://clouder.gatesofcommerce.com/snapshot2.png
[02:11] <Owner> i did and its alternitive too
[02:11] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: The program 'ndiswrapper' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common. bash: ndiswrapper: command not found
[02:11] <shane_> spaceraven: hello?
[02:11] <edderkopp> hello
[02:11] <h4wk0> lol clouder`grr how did you manage that lol!
[02:11] <clouder`grr> If I get it to tear off again, I'll post that too
[02:11] <edderkopp> some people from Mexico..___
[02:11] <deoryp> Question: what should i try when dmesg reports it configures my usb devie (usb harddrive) but fdisk does not see it, and i can't mount it?
[02:11] <clouder`grr> but I can't get it to do it again
[02:11] <spaceraver> shane_: now you need to add users
[02:11] <Fructose> bruenig: Faulty analogy. Let me fix it. All I know is that when I order my meal, it gets to me cold. I don't know if it's the waiter's fault. I don't know if it's the chef's fault. Maybe the menu should say to ask for it warm. Maybe it's a cultural expectation to do so. All I know, is that my food is cold and I don't want it that way.
[02:11] <Pelo> Owner, it would help if we knew the specific issue you have having
[02:11] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: oh right... it's an application. I thought the gnome-panel
[02:12] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: And you installed those packages?
[02:12] <clouder`grr> h4wk0: I wish I knew
[02:12] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: When I do actually type that command in, it says ndiswrapper is already at it's latest version and 0 packages get updated/installed.
[02:12] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: yep
[02:12] <shane_> spaceraven: how? How long is this going to take
[02:12] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: of course, you've tried dragging, right clock on  the menu's
[02:12] <Pelo> Fructose, bruenig  #ubuntu-offtopic please
[02:12] <h4wk0> clouder`grr; Sure you havent just clicked the 'arrows' that hides the bar?
[02:12] <shane_> spaceraven: Error adding system user:
[02:12] <deoryp> Question: what should i try when dmesg reports it configures my usb devie (usb harddrive) but fdisk does not see it, and i can't mount it?
[02:12] <Aerotwelve> !pastebin
[02:12] <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)
[02:12] <bruenig> Fructose, right but if the way you reported it to me was "this restaurant serves cold food" the implication is that the restaurant caused it, while not necessarily the only correct interpretation of that statement, the most likely way
[02:12] <Owner> ok i put in the cd with the iso speshely burd on i put it in and bam it dosent see the cd it boots regurly
[02:13] <clouder`grr> Azzkikr: yeah I've tried middle button dragging ctrl dragging everything pretty much
[02:13] <Owner> i pressed c too
[02:13] <clouder`grr> h4wk0: what arrows?
[02:13] <shane_> spaceraven: hello damn it?
[02:13] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: I believe you have to configure ndiswrapper to work with the driver...Just out of curiousity what's the return on nidswrapper with no opitions?
[02:13] <h4wk0> Ah dw clouder`grr it wont be that if you cant see any arrows
[02:13] <h4wk0> What does restarting do?
[02:13] <clouder`grr> Haven't done that yet
[02:14] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Looks like the same error. I pastebinned my last command, just in case I'm doing something wrong: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23805/
[02:14] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: probably, PenguinTV stores it's data in ~/.penguintv/ or the like. Perhaps if you delete that directory the UI will be restored. However, all your data for PenguinTV  will be removed too. Try making a backup of that directory, and then removing it alltogether (last resort :))
[02:14] <h4wk0> Might be worth a try
[02:14] <shane_> spaceraven: hello are you still there?
[02:14] <coolzone> Hi all. I am setting up a new box and I have some different hardware to choose from. Can someone tell me which is better, a AMD Athlon xp 3000+ with a Barton core and FSB 333, or a P4 2.6  with a FSB 800?
[02:14] <Owner> i burd the iso and the mac dose not detect the cd
[02:14] <clouder`grr> I got a piece of the application to tear apart again it's some sort of alt+space+tab combo
[02:14] <spaceraver> shane_: under the users pane, use whatever you want but add the user to the group users
[02:15] <h4wk0> coolzone; I would go with AMD Athlon as i am a Athlong Fan
[02:15] <deoryp> Question: what should i try when dmesg reports it configures my usb devie (usb harddrive) but fdisk does not see it, and i can't mount it?
[02:15] <Owner> i used a speshil iso bruner
[02:15] <shane_> spaceraven: I told you it says error adding new user
[02:15] <coolzone> h4wk0, but doesn't the fsb at 333 make it a lot slower than the P4 when it has a fsb on 800?
[02:15] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: hmmm... consult that application then :D
[02:15] <shane_> spaceraven: you're a jerk... 30 minutes and you've accomplished shit all... thanks for nothing ass hole
[02:15] <spaceraver> shane_: what is the error
[02:15] <shane_> spaceraven: time waster
[02:16] <clouder`grr> Azzkikr: want to see what it looks like with the File menu torn off just for kicks?
[02:16] <h4wk0> coolzone; Might do, prob not that much different
[02:16] <h4wk0> *difference
[02:16] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: sure heh
[02:16] <coolzone> h4wk0, ok thanks
[02:16] <Owner> hello?
[02:16] <Esers> Lost everything from c drive
[02:16] <Esers> :(
[02:16] <aroo> Owner, hello
[02:16] <Owner> ok i put in the cd with the iso speshely burd on i put it in and bam it dosent see the cd it boots regurly
[02:16] <aroo> um what?
[02:16] <snyft> ok so i got this error after installing xubuntu. i disabled the harddrive to boot from so i could boot up the xubuntu install cd. then when it finished i added it again. and now i get "error cant find operating system" but if i boot with the cd and choose boot from first hd i get to grub and can choose what to boot. i tried reformat the drive and reinstall it.
[02:17] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: You have to install/Compile ndiswrapper, try following these: http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/joomla/index.php?/component/option,com_openwiki/Itemid,33/id,installation/
[02:17] <Owner> it wont install
[02:17] <aroo> speshely burd?
[02:17] <h4wk0> But then again coolzone That is my personal opinion i always have used AMD over Intel
[02:17] <aroo> I don't even know what that means
[02:17] <coolzone> ok
[02:17] <beau__> is there a way to repeat a command at intervals, without using a cron job?
[02:17] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Alright, I'll try that. Thanks.
[02:17] <clouder`grr> Azzkikr: http://clouder.gatesofcommerce.com/snapshot3.png
[02:17] <jrib> beau__: a while loop and sleep
[02:17] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: I should be here so, if I can help, I will.
[02:17] <beau__> jrib: thanks
[02:17] <purpzey> I've got a curious small problem going here...My "battery monitory" gnome applet is still running, it is in the panel, but it is squeezed between two other applets such that, it is literally barely visible, anyone have a suggestion on that?
[02:18] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: what on earth?!
[02:18] <aroo> purpzey, can you right click on it enough to click "move"
[02:18] <Lane_Rendell> Err, question, whats the easiest C++ IDE/Compiler to use on Ubuntu
[02:18] <aroo> purpzey, and drag it around?
[02:18] <clouder`grr> Azzkikr: nutty eh?
[02:18] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: what application was it that you mentioned which enables such behaviour?
[02:18] <aroo> Lane_Rendell, personal preference
[02:18] <daylighter> count me suprised! I just plugged in my iPod for the first time under linux, and rhythmbox took it right up
[02:18] <shiryu> how did i change a icon of a program?
[02:19] <LjL> beau__: _why not use cron since it's made for just that?
[02:19] <Lane_Rendell> aroo: Any recommendations?
[02:19] <h4wk0> !gcc | Lane_Rendell
[02:19] <ubotu> Lane_Rendell: Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[02:19] <aroo> Lane_Rendell, I use gedit and gcc
[02:19] <SamWise_TheGreat> hi ive installed beryl and my window decorations wont work on kubuntu feisty can some1 please help?
[02:19] <purpzey> aroo: I can with a small amount of touchpad tinkering...but when I click I just get my power options...or preferences for right click
[02:19] <clouder`grr> Azzkikr: what do you mean?  So far it's only done it with PenguinTV
[02:19] <beau__> LjL: I would like to run the command at ~3 second invervals
[02:19] <deoryp> does someone know waht i am suppose to do next trying to get a usb harddrive (unformatted) to be seen?
[02:19] <beau__> LjL: is cron right for this?
[02:19] <geokeratz> daylighter> Is it really working??
[02:19] <aroo> purpzey, there's no "move" option?
[02:19] <LjL> beau__: oh, i see. no, in that case a sleep loop is certainly best.
[02:19] <daylighter> geokeratz, yes! I'm copying songs to it right now
[02:19] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: oh, nevermind, misunderstood. Did you enable detachable menu's in System->Prefernces->Menu's and toolbars?
[02:19] <shiryu> how did i change the icon of a program like firefox
[02:20] <daylighter> albeit slowly
[02:20] <maximal_> purpzey: try the middle button and drag
[02:20] <premier_> Hi, ubuntu has been so kind to rewrite my grub menu.lst file everytime I boot.  How do I fix it?
[02:20] <beau__> LjL: thanks
[02:20] <daylighter> very slowly... I wonder why so slow
[02:20] <purpzey> aroo: I'll check again, move on a right click or a left click...Just in case i was unclear, this is my "system tray" w/ the network manager and all that
[02:20] <aroo> purpzey, ohhh it's in systray
[02:20] <mae> how do i concatenate macros for epp
[02:20] <pot> shiryu : right click on the menu and do "Edit Menus"
[02:20] <aroo> purpzey, I don't know then :(
[02:20] <mae> like if wanted ?MODULE + ?foo
[02:20] <premier_> probably everytime I down boot too
[02:20] <geokeratz> daylighter> that was always an argument with my brother for Ubuntu vs OSX hehe
[02:20] <purpzey> aroo: Sorry, I should have been more clear.
[02:20] <mae> or ?MODULE + the atom 'foo'
[02:21] <LjL> premier_: i don't know why it would rewrite it at every boot (it usually just rewrites it when the kernel is updated), but if you look at the commented part of menu.lst, you'll see there are quite a few parameters that you can change *while leaving them commented*. that's the way you should edit menu.lst - avoid changing the actual values
[02:21] <clouder`grr> Azzkikr: nope it's unchecked.  I fixed it though finally, I just kept selecting different menus and smashing alt tab and space and it went back
[02:21] <clouder`grr> I'll just be more careful pressing alt tab now
[02:21] <daylighter> geokeratz, OSX is a nice operating system, but I like freedom and the extreme ability to change everything to my
[02:21] <shiryu> pot but i want to change the icon of the program, i downloaded an icon for firefox that i want to be in place of the normal
[02:21] <Azzkikr> clouder`grr: err... very odd heh. I hope it's a 'feature' from Penguin TV!
[02:21] <padman> I am trying to install ubuntu 7.04 but I am stuck at (initramfs) What's wrong?
[02:22] <pot> go to the launcher properties (right click and choose properties)   then just click on the icon image in the properties box
[02:22] <google_> go
[02:22] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Alright, I ran the make distclean and make, and it looks like everything went okay. Typing ndiswrapper yields the same result...
[02:22] <geokeratz> daylighter> yes. we have taken 2 different paths. we both left MS devil and now i'm on Ubuntu and he is on OSX
[02:23] <bijan> hi im currantly install ing ubuntu so im here if something gose worong
[02:23] <daylighter> steve jobs is just a devil in sheep's clothing, he's after the same goal, $$$
[02:23] <clouder`grr> Azzkikr: yeah, seems like it only happens with PenguinTV.  I tried doing it with filezilla and firefox and got nothing
[02:23] <bijan> ok its detecting hardware
[02:24] <c0ldfront> when i try todo make patch_kernel i get Kernel Makefile not found at '/lib/modules/2.6.20-16-generic/source/'
[02:24] <geokeratz> daylighter> LOL take this for an answer . I agree: http://d5.allthingsd.com/20070530/d5-gates-jobs-interview/
[02:25] <daylighter> yes :)
[02:25] <bijan> is ubuntu good?
[02:25] <bijan> or easy
[02:25] <daylighter> bijan, both
[02:25] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: That might be beyond my scope...If you installed it properly it should work...Did you follow the guide on the install page, including installing the driver?
[02:25] <shiryu> thanks pot
[02:25] <bijan> ok good
[02:25] <pot> sure
[02:26] <dchagwood> Does anyone know about a bug with PS/2 keyboards in Feisty?
[02:26] <deoryp> do you see this?
[02:26] <bijan> ahhhhhhhh..............corrupt file
[02:26] <aroo> rofl
[02:26] <aroo> ROFL
[02:26] <bijan> what do i do??
[02:27] <bijan> plese help corrupt file!!!1
[02:27] <dchagwood> I think it's a kernel bug but I'm not sure.
[02:27] <daylighter> i have an xD card reader plugged in, and there's media in it, but it doesnt seem to be mounted.... is there something I need to ad to /etc/fstab?
[02:27] <bijan> someone!? help
[02:28] <bijan> i need help
[02:28] <HairyDude> search for dmenu, press +
[02:28] <HairyDude> it selects not dmenu, but dwm and dwm-tools
[02:28] <aroo> bijan you still havent said which file is corrupt
[02:28] <aroo> bijan all you said was "HELP CORRUPT FILE"
[02:28] <pot> deoryp: no
[02:28] <bijan> a lot!!!!!!!
[02:28] <HairyDude> press + again and it selects dmenu, but also fails to delesect dwm-tools, which conflicts with it
[02:28] <bijan> i clicked thro a bunch
[02:29] <piratepenguin> what does it mean when my reiserfs filesystem needs o "replay transiactions" on bootup?
[02:29] <aroo> bijan I can't help you unless you're descriptive
[02:29] <mae> anyone know how to concatenate macros?
[02:29] <pot> bijan : please explain your entire problem in one line
[02:29] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Yep, I think I did it right. I think I'm going to start over. I'll send you another message when I'm done.
[02:29] <premier_> Hi, is there a way to revert fglrx to pre-January?
[02:29] <purpzey> ok
[02:29] <deoryp> dmesg says it is using the device as ehci-hcd
[02:29] <__mikem> pot, I think thats what he was trying to do with that very vague problem discription :)
[02:30] <bijan> im ilsalling my ubuntu and im geting a bunch of courrupt files i mean a lot!
[02:30] <deoryp> bijan i bet your cd is screwed up... reburn and try again
[02:30] <pot> bijan - re-download the iso and burn it again - maybe burn it at a slower speed
[02:31] <bijan> ok
[02:31] <dchagwood> Help.  I can't even get the install process started in Feisty until I can make sure the keyboard will work.  Is there a PS/2 keyboard bug?
[02:32] <dchagwood> Hello???
[02:33] <cinvoke> tu
[02:33] <cinvoke> Can someone help me locate a sound card driver for my sound card?
[02:33] <Fawa3> jrib: installed fluxbox and xserver started . however resolution very low and colours are few.. u think gnome will fix that?
[02:33] <jrib> Fawa3: well you're using the vesa driver.  What card do you have?
[02:34] <preston_> Can anyone tell me how to bind keys to programs or files
[02:34] <sebas_> how can I see the information about my RAM in device manager?
[02:34] <Fawa3> jrib: to be honest i dinno i think it's intel it's a build in with the mother board
[02:35] <Fawa3> jrib: there is no Intel option when i run the xserver configueration
[02:36] <cinvoke> I need to find a driver formy sound card....Anyone???
[02:36] <jrib> Fawa3: I think for intel, you use i810.  Maybe someone here has an intel card and can help?
[02:36] <chump> someone is running linuxmce and can answer some question ?
[02:37] <preston_> How do you bind keys
[02:37] <bruenig> !info xbindkeys
[02:37] <sebas_> where is the information of the ram in device manager?
[02:37] <dchagwood> Does anyone here know of a PS/2 keyboard bug?  I've tried 2 different one and I get the same problem.  No keyboard input after the kernel starts.
[02:37] <ubotu> xbindkeys: Associate a combination of keys or mouse buttons with a shell command. In component universe, is optional. Version 1.7.1-1.1 (feisty), package size 26 kB, installed size 148 kB
[02:37] <Fawa3> jrib: hmm i can try that but to be sure what command i could use to list my installed hardware devices?
[02:37] <dchagwood> This is in Feisty.
[02:37] <jrattner> Question: What is the best multiplayer poker game for ubuntu? (Poker2d will not run)
[02:37] <chump> !linuxmce
[02:37] <jrib> Fawa3: lspci or lshw for more detail

[02:37] <preston_> I want to bind a file to !info xbindkeys
[02:38] <skel> does anyone know of a good utility to watch USB communications between the port and device?
[02:38] <preston_> No ... how do i bind keys in linux
[02:38] <skel> I want to write a driver for my phone
[02:38] <deoryp> do i need extra drivers to support usb harddrives?
[02:38] <skel> deoryp: you shouldn't need anything extra for any harddrive that supports USB mass storage
[02:38] <piratepenguin> wtf where's all the -devel packages?
[02:39] <Fawa3> jrib: thanx .. let me try to google around and try something from this point.. thanx a lot u have been a great help
[02:39] <skel> deoryp: for feisty and edgy anyway, not sure past that
[02:39] <bruenig> piratepenguin, what are you talking about
[02:39] <Fawa3> jrib: i can always come here if i got stuck :)
[02:39] <|_ocke> ok so, i just restarted my computer and now i cant get sound to work in anything except xmms and only when i go to audio I/O and set ALSA plugin to use the SBLive instead of default
[02:39] <piratepenguin> bruenig: I need glib-2.0.pc etc
[02:39] <|_ocke> and the onboard card is disabled in bios
[02:39] <jrib> Fawa3: yep :) gl
[02:39] <cinvoke> soundcard help please, anyone
[02:40] <bruenig> piratepenguin, .pc?
[02:40] <piratepenguin> pkg-config, yes
[02:40] <piratepenguin> bruenig: where's the packages with the include files etc??
[02:40] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Hey, it looks like an apt-get remove and a reboot solved my problem. I'm getting the standard syntax screen now.
[02:40] <bruenig> piratepenguin, -dev files
[02:40] <Fawa3> jrib: :) thanx again
[02:40] <piratepenguin> bruenig: ahh! thanks lol
[02:40] <dchagwood> Nevermind...I guess I'm going to stick with Edgy for now.  I really wish I could figure out this PS/2 issue.
[02:41] <ax> does anyone know how i change a default application that some filetype launches when i double click on it in nautalis?
[02:42] <jrib> !defaultapp > ax (see the private message from ubotu)
[02:42] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Would you happen to have a link to that walkthrough?
[02:43] <geokeratz> cinvoke> haha everybody has something with that
[02:44] <cinvoke> geokeratz: yea ive been at this for 2 day snow
[02:44] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: Sorry, my phone rang one sec.
[02:46] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: Ok, you mean the nidswrapper install guide?
[02:47] <dvdgorila> Hi everyone, I created a folder and a group. i would like to make the group the owner of the folder and all sub folders and files in that folder. how?
[02:48] <jrib> dvdgorila: chgrp -R GROUP FOLDER
[02:48] <geokeratz> cinvoke> i can't help u. I've got just to inform u buddy i didn't have sound for A MONTH in Ubuntu . 5 days ago I changed my soundcard and everything is ok since the first Boot. It's really a main problem in Linux I think
[02:48] <bastid_raZor> or your soundcard is a junker
[02:49] <bastid_raZor> if you bought a new soundcard and it works.. then that says something about the soundcard not linux
[02:49] <geokeratz> bastid_raZor> junker=? i don't know what u mean
[02:50] <alakalaka99> anyone here use wubi, i have a question
[02:50] <skel> bastid_raZor: it says something about the device support FOR linux.. which is getting better but far from desirable
[02:50] <dvdgorila> jrib, that doesnt seem to do anything
[02:50] <purpzey> geokeratz: He is saying that, if you use a soundcard, and it doesn't work, and you suddenly switch it....it's not necessarily the fault of linux...only linuxes support of the card.
[02:50] <Aerotwelve> purpzey: Yep, I've got that all under control.
[02:50] <bastid_raZor> once dell starts producing and selling quanities of Ubuntu boxes.. you'll see a major shift in driver support
[02:50] <dvdgorila> the folder is still owned by root, and files are still owned by the user who created the files
[02:51] <purpzey> Aerotwelve: Ok, keep on trucking, and I'll be here if you get stuck...hopefully I'll be able to help...
[02:51] <skel> bastid_raZor: for all the hardware dell carries, I'm sure
[02:51] <skel> bastid_raZor: maybe more, that would sure be nice
[02:51] <bastid_raZor> dvdgorila: become root then chown yourusername: -R directory
[02:51] <geokeratz> bastid_raZor>  that's true. It was the company's fault no to have Linux drivers...
[02:52] <PurpZeY> !root
[02:52] <ubotu> sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:52] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Heh, alright then. Heres the current status: ndiswrapper -l shows this "bcmwl5 : driver installed" and only that. Looking at the Gnome network manager doesn't show anything. Any thoughts?
[02:52] <bastid_raZor> skel: the sooner the better. i had many issues with nVidia video card .. but come to find out it wasn't linux at all. my processor couldn't handle the fact i was trying to run two monitors via one card
[02:52] <dvdgorila> i did use sudo
[02:52] <skel> geokeratz: thing that kills me, is even if a company doesn't write the drivers but at least uses a published spec or publishes their own, someone eventually writes one.  Its crap companies like broadcom that do neither that hurt
[02:52] <dvdgorila>  sudo chgrp -R smbsh dumpster/
[02:53] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: Maybe, let me just look at something.
[02:53] <harry_> GParted won't let me make a fat16 partition smaller than 16MB
[02:53] <dvdgorila> thats what i did
[02:53] <skel> bastid_raZor: do you have amd by chance?
[02:53] <dvdgorila> smbsh is the group
[02:53] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Sure, no problem.
[02:53] <cinvoke> Can someone help me find a sound card driver?
[02:53] <sebas_> does anyone know if geforce 7300GT 256mb is supported by Linux?
[02:54] <skel> sebas_: I think my wife is a 7300, not sure if its gt, hang on
[02:54] <skel> *wife's
[02:54] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: did you run the sudo modprobe ndiswrapper?
[02:54] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: and dmesg ?
[02:54] <sebas_> skel: sure, are you married to a geforce? haha
[02:54] <bastid_raZor> skel: i did yes. i now have a Pentium D
[02:55] <Aerotwelve> !pastebin
[02:55] <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)
[02:55] <Fawa3> is the difirrences between ubuntu desktop edit and server edition .. the window manager stuff only ? or is there other major diffirences?
[02:55] <skel> sebas_: heheh touche, but I was wrong, she's got a 7800 not 7300
[02:55] <bastid_raZor> nVidia has the best driver support as of right now.
[02:55] <noob> HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  how do I get flash to work if I got a amd64 computer?
[02:55] <skel> bastid_raZor: hmm interesting info, thanks. I think I may have the same issue
[02:55] <voyt618> Hi everyone. Is there any way to pass the admin. password to sudo as a parameter rather than wait for Ubuntu to ask for the input?
[02:55] <sebas_> skel: well, but does it work?
[02:56] <skel> sebas_: she's had no complaint, and she gives it a workout with world of warcraft
[02:56] <__mikem> noob, the same way you get flash to work on a 32 bit computer
[02:56] <PurpZeY> Fawa3: As far as I understand it they are essentially the same, except for the desktop package.
[02:56] <skel> noob: you'll need a chrooted firefox that runs in 32bit or just run in 32bit Ubuntu
[02:56] <Flannel> !chroot | noob
[02:57] <ubotu> noob: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[02:57] <bastid_raZor> skel: i had to upgrade.. my old box was 7 years old.. i spent 258$ at portatech.com .. now i'm blowing my old box away
[02:57] <Fawa3> purpzey: hmm yeah that's what i noticed at least :) thanx
[02:57] <DigitalisAkujin> how do i exit VMWare full screen mode?
[02:57] <geokeratz> bastid_raZor> good for them. That's what i told to the dealer for Propaganda when he was trying to shell me a crappy soundcard
[02:57] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Alright, the sudo modprobe ndiswrapper command warranted this: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23806/ and this is the output of dmesg: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23807/  I'm not sure what they mean, maybe you do.
[02:57] <bastid_raZor> geokeratz: i have onboard sound. never had an issue with sound.
[02:58] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: ok. I'll have a look, no guarantees on my knowledge.
[02:58] <geokeratz> bastid_raZor> i told him . m-audio is supporting linux so i want ONLY m-audio cards in this shop!
[02:58] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Hey, this is further than I've ever gotten before. lol
[02:58] <str4> hey
[02:58] <dtrump> sup
[02:58] <noob> skel, Flannel: But isn't there anothore flash player that runs on 64 bit?
[02:58] <sebas_> If I have a AMD athlon64, can I install a 32-bit Ubuntu?
[02:59] <_soo> sebas, no
[02:59] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Also, I'm going to reboot to test this new config, I'll be right back.
[02:59] <skel> noob: no, at the present time adobe/macromedia has only released a 32bit flash player for linux
[02:59] <bastid_raZor> geokeratz: exactly. since nVidia is best support i'm buying an PCI-E 7600GT
[02:59] <PurpZeY> ok
[02:59] <__mikem> _soo yes you can, I did it
[02:59] <Flannel> sebas_: yes
[02:59] <geokeratz> sebas_> YES
[02:59] <a5benwillis> Can anyone tell me how to create an .img/.iso file from a folder?
[02:59] <skel> sebas_: yes you can
[02:59] <_soo> ok then...
[02:59] <bastid_raZor> sebas_ get the 64 bit version
[02:59] <__mikem> is there an ubotu factoid about giving bad information
[03:00] <sebas_> and what is the difference? I don't understand too much about hardware
[03:00] <_soo> what happens"
[03:00] <str4> fun
[03:00] <skel> sebas_ / bastid_raZor: unless you've got excess of 4gig of ram, running in 64bit will do you little good
[03:00] <geokeratz> sebas_> why do u want 32bit?
[03:00] <__mikem> _soo if seveas kicks you, we get entertained
[03:00] <jrattner> How can I view other computer on my network which have shares
[03:00] <bastid_raZor> a5benwillis: k3b application
[03:00] <a5benwillis> bastid_raZor: Any command line ways to do it?
[03:01] <sebas_> can I run 32-bit applications in athlon64?
[03:01] <snyft> ok so i got this error after installing xubuntu. i disabled the harddrive to boot from so i could boot up the xubuntu install cd. then when it finished i added it again. and now i get "error cant find operating system" but if i boot with the cd and choose boot from first hd i get to grub and can choose what to boot. i tried reformat the drive and reinstall it.
[03:01] <__mikem> sebas_ yes you can, I am doing it right now
[03:01] <_soo> I got 64 and62 bit CD,and 3 32bit machines...
[03:01] <Flannel> noob: Nope.  It's binary-only (closed source) and they haven't released a 64bit version.  The only thing you can use is a free alternative, like gnash, or something like gstreamer0.8-swfdec
[03:01] <bastid_raZor> skel: 4G? what?
[03:01] <_soo> not 32bit
[03:01] <Flannel> noob: or the 32bit chroot, of course.
[03:01] <skel> sebas_: trust me, install 32bit ubuntu if you have a athlon 64 unless you want to spend many hours setting up apps that don't quite work in 64 bit yet
[03:01] <__mikem> _soo, no you can't run 64  bit in 32 bit computer
[03:01] <sebas_> __mikem: so it's like a backwards compatibility
[03:02] <Flannel> sebas_: yep.
[03:02] <bastid_raZor> a5benwillis: i'm sure there are. google for it.
[03:02] <Ernz> Hi, I am converting an AVI to dvd on my new AMD dual core 5000+ - I am looking at the CPU usage, and CPU2 is at 100% all the time, while CPU1 is barely doing anything (1-4%). How can I get both CPU's working overtime simultiously for faster conversion?
[03:02] <__mikem> sebas_ yes, and it works quite well if I do say so myself
[03:02] <skel> bastid_raZor: thats about the only advantage of a 64 bit processor, the high memory addressing
[03:02] <_soo> what did I miss prior?
[03:02] <bastid_raZor> skel: oh, i thought you were talking about the nVidia card.
[03:03] <skel> bastid_raZor: oh, no heheh =] 
[03:03] <bastid_raZor> skel: 32bit is plenty for me.
[03:03] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Nope, didn't seem to.
[03:03] <skel> bastid_raZor: same =] 
[03:03] <jrattner> Question: Is there like a "Network Neighborhood" for ubuntu
[03:03] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: What was that program you were suggesting worked with others? Wifi something?
[03:03] <sebas_> Ok, thanks. Aren't there any conflicts between a 32-bit app and my 64-bit core?
[03:03] <bastid_raZor> Ernz maybe your bios isn't set correctly. I have PentiumD 2x 3.0GHrz .. Ubuntu seemed to pick them up fine and split the workload
[03:04] <lufis> Ernz: it might be your kernel
[03:04] <stmiller> Anyone know if in Xfce there is a way to require a password when waking from suspend?
[03:04] <skel> sebas_: your athlon is 64bit by way of extension of the 32bit architecture, so it should be fully backwards compatible
[03:05] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: I ran into this SAME EXACT problem with that other card.....Have you looked in /lib/modules/*kernel* for the driver...I mean, here's what's going on
[03:05] <skel> sebas_: its just a matter of which platform you pick to run on it
[03:05] <skel> sebas_: athlon / pentium D / whatever your 64bit proc is
[03:06] <Ernz> lufis/bastid_raZor: The PC came with Ubuntu installed. I really don't wanna screw about with the BIOS settings. I am using the 32-bit version of Ubuntu (If that makes a difference), and does DeVeDe, which uses mencoder actually support load sharing?
[03:06] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: ndiswrapper is there and it's functioning, it's just not typing to your card properly...I don't know how to fix this, but I think it might be because your card is still being recognized elsewhere by modprobe and I am sure SOMEONE here, can help you, but I just am not sure...I'll look at my book real fast, but other than that I'll be stuck.
[03:06] <sebas_> skel: exactly amd athlon64 3600+ AM2, do you have any experience with it?
[03:06] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: But I would like to see the solution as it would help me to fix this other wireless card.
[03:06] <bastid_raZor> Ernz: that could be the issue as well, i use tovid to encode avi to dvd. it works great
[03:06] <skel> sebas_: not with that model, I have an earlier one, the 3400 and I run 32bit Ubuntu on it happily
[03:06] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Hmm. Well, thanks for your help, and I'll keep looking around.
[03:07] <lufis> Ernz: i forget the name of the kernel. it's basically for multicore systems. installing it isn't hard, it's just a trip to synaptic
[03:07] <lufis> smp i think
[03:08] <jrattner> Question: Currently I live in a house with two other guys who use windows.  On their computers they have a vast amount of music in iTunes.  Is it possible for me to access their music shares from Ubuntu and play some of their music?
[03:08] <_soo> does IRC allow windows folks on its channels?
[03:08] <Ernz> lufis - Same package run on AMD and Pentium?
[03:08] <Ernz> bastid_raZor - Cool nick, and thanks for tovid heads up. I will have a look at using that now - see if it makes a difference
[03:08] <lufis> Ernz: i suppose
[03:08] <aroo> jrattner, you can use samba to network with Windows machines
[03:08] <jrib> _soo: of course.  On freenode there is ##windows for example
[03:08] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: It is a poor way to go, but you might try to clear out in total and use ndisgtk to do it....Might help with any small installation issues.
[03:08] <bastid_raZor> Ernz: good luck
[03:08] <Ernz> lufis: Is it hard to install?
[03:08] <__mikem> jrattner, as long as you have the IP addresses of both computers and their mp3s are available on a smb share
[03:08] <Ernz> cheers, bastid
[03:08] <Ernz> lol
[03:08] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: ndisgtk?
[03:08] <__mikem> and as long as you have an smb login
[03:08] <lufis> Ernz: shouldn't be... you just install the new kernel and ubuntu does the rest
[03:09] <jrattner> aroo, how would I view their shares via samba?
[03:09] <skel> sebas_: if you're curious to know more about the diff between the older 32bit procs and the new intel and amd ones, checkout http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86-64
[03:09] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: It's a GUI installing method for configuring ndiswrapper, most advise against it, b/c it just isn't as, flexible, but it might work.
[03:09] <Aerotwelve> Really?
[03:09] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Well, I'll try that. I'll try anything.
[03:09] <aroo> !samba > jrattner
[03:10] <aroo> check pm
[03:10] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: Yup. sudo apt get install ndisgtk (once you have ndiswrapper installed)
[03:10] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: That would mean keeping ndiswrapper?
[03:11] <vox754> Aerotwelve, ndisgtk is just a front end to the ndiswrapper program. Totally useless, stick to the command line version.
[03:11] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: Well, if you were of a mind to, you could use the instructions on that forum page for taking everything out. Take it all out, remove ndiswrapper, and start again, but try using ndisgtk...That's really your call...But, if you still get stuck, I am sure someone here would know, at a busier time...just not me...=(

[03:13] <bastid_raZor> macogq ATI isn't well supported by Linux..
[03:13] <sebas_> voyt618: yes
[03:13] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: It's called Wifi Radar....Also, the eth1 doesn't show up in device manager....ALSO This could help siginficantly...Make sure that ndiswrapper doesn't need to be looking at eth1 instead of wlan0, or vice-versa...There is nothing about it in the thread, but it's something I saw once.
[03:14] <jrib> !paste | dimz
[03:14] <Amaranth> !pastebin | dimz
[03:14] <ubotu> dimz: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[03:14] <macogw> bastid_raZor: im well aware of that
[03:14] <macogw> bastid_raZor: thats why ive only put it on intel graphics stuff til now
[03:14] <voyt618> sebas_, Nope... I promote Ubuntu to non-profit organizations tho... Just wondering, why promote Ubuntu? What's in it for the school?
[03:14] <skel> dimz: I'm not familiar with FUSE
[03:14] <dimz> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23808/ thats the msg i get when i try to refresh fstab
[03:14] <PurpZeY> voyt618: IMO, nothing but headaches.
[03:14] <bastid_raZor> a2z you have to upgrade in sequence 6.11 then 7.04
[03:14] <skel> dimz: can you paste your /etc/fstab contents in pastebin ?
[03:15] <macogw> bastid_raZor: but the built-in likely intel graphics on this box are either broken or max at 8-bit, so i'm not using that, and it was just too slow with winxp for me to leave it on there any longer
[03:15] <dimz> k
[03:15] <voyt618> PurpZeY, you mean promoting Ubuntu?
[03:15] <a2z> bastid_raZor: 6.11 ?
[03:15] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Would you know how to do that?
[03:15] <voyt618> PurpZeY, I had quite a lot of success in developing countries, actually. :)
[03:15] <macogw> bastid_raZor: rage II uses the open source driver anyway.  the closed source driver is t3h sux0r
[03:15] <bastid_raZor> a2z: the next step in the ubuntu series.
[03:15] <PurpZeY> voyt618: Ubuntu in schools. . .
[03:15] <dimz> skel http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23809/ basicly i dont want sda1 to mount just sda5
[03:15] <sebas_> voyt618: I mean a linux distro in general. We are using windows as the main OS (linux for the last year) and I think that we might learn more about what is really happening. Don't you?
[03:16] <a2z> bastid_raZor: i m using update manager's update distro option
[03:16] <dimz> but its workin the other way around
[03:16] <doseryder> I dont want gdm to start when I power on, I would prefer to startx manually.  Which file do i need to edit in order to configure startup programs?
[03:16] <Flannel> sebas_: you might try #ubuntu-marketing, they keep tabs on stuff like that
[03:16] <voyt618> sebas_, I think if you talk to your comp sci teaches, maybe... Or new media if you have classes in that area. I know a few teachers who promote Ubuntu in their classroom.
[03:16] <doseryder> Thx-in-advance
[03:16] <bastid_raZor> a2z: when i updated i downloaded the dvd then burned it then installed from the live cd. i never did the get the update manager to work
[03:16] <voyt618> sebas_, Have you passed around a few Live CDs? Those work well.
[03:16] <lufis> doseryder: there's a command line app that lets you edit what services start... maybe someone here knows what it's called. it will let you disable gdm
[03:17] <voyt618> sebas_,Or get Xubuntu on some old (obsolete?) computers to show it off.
[03:17] <bastid_raZor> doseryder: probably grub
[03:17] <doseryder> bastid_raZor, its not grub. but thx for your input :)
[03:17] <effie_jayx> any suggestions for running ubuntu on a petium II 96 ram
[03:17] <n2diy_> sebas_: are you aware of #ubuntu-marketing? They might have promotion ideas, though there aren't many subscribers there.
[03:17] <a2z> bastid_raZor: i think you are right, the update manager again  need to downnload 530 files
[03:18] <voyt618> sebas_, which country are you in?
[03:18] <a2z> bastid_raZor: i will go with downloading distro

[03:18] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: It doesn't seem like the alias thing is an issue with your card...I'd try adding a line 'ndiswrapper' to the file modules.conf (you may have to create it.)
[03:18] <lufis> Ernz: no idea. what's your arch?
[03:18] <skel> dimz: then try and manually mount /media/sda5
[03:18] <Flannel> Ernz: What version of Ubuntu are you running?  5.10 is obsolete.  You should upgrade to 6.06
[03:19] <stmiller> anyone watching the hockey game?

[03:19] <rescon> deez
[03:19] <lufis> doseryder: yeah, i've used it before. it's a perl app, but can't remember what it's called. but anyway, the thread i linked you to should help

[03:20] <Flannel> Ernz: Ah.  Feisty.  You want generic.
[03:20] <lufis> Ernz: ah, then i guess it's already using the smp kernel
[03:20] <dimz> no
[03:20] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: Also, the channel seems rather dead, but you might try asking in #ndiswrapper, a channel I had no idea existed until a second ago.
[03:20] <a2z> exit
[03:21] <Ernz> Lufis: then why is one CPU maxed out, and the other only works when I do other stuff? Could it be that there is just no support for load sharing under mencoder?

[03:21] <lufis> Ernz: i dunno, that's not my area of expertise

[03:21] <Flannel> Ernz: Do you have two CPUs listed?  If so, then you've got SMP working
[03:22] <Ernz> Flannel, yes I do have 2 listed
[03:22] <Ernz> Flannel: Why does DeVeDe just use one CPU?
[03:22] <Wolydarg> Grub is showing two copies of both the Ubuntu kernel and the recovery mode, is there anyway to fix this?
[03:22] <Flannel> Ernz: then you've got SMP running fine.  So I imagine your assumption is correct, DeVeDe is just not utilizing the second core.
[03:22] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: It may not exist. If that's the case create it. It will be in /etc/ if not create it there.
[03:23] <Flannel> Wolydarg: Two copies are probably different kernel versions.  That's normal
[03:23] <skel> dimz: try mount /media/sda5 -t ntfs-3g -o force   just to see if it'll mount
[03:23] <Ernz> Flannel: b*llox. Bastid_raZor mentioned both CPUs functioning using tovid. I will persue that.
[03:23] <Wolydarg> Flannel, both are identical, and both options brings me to the same screen

[03:30] <scooper> hey all....for some reason I can't start gnome-terminal, any ideas?
[03:30] <eX|Joe> download it I assume?
[03:30] <pot> #ubuntu-effects is discussion about ubuntu eye candy
[03:30] <skel> dimz: are you sure sda5 is the correct partition you want?  if you do an fdisk -l /dev/sda  it will show you all the partitions on that disk and their sizes and filesystem types
[03:31] <lufis> scooper: alt+f2 gnome-terminal, or try killall gnome-terminal
[03:31] <atp> hey, i just installed feisty on my macbook.  when it boots, it automatically mounts my mac partition, which is good, but it does it with permissions that make it impossible to access anything, which is not so good.  on debian, i'd just edit the fstab and change the mount options, but on feisty, it seems something else (HAL maybe?) is mounting the volume.  where can i find information about this?
[03:31] <pot> ex|joe hold on i got good howto for beryl ati

[03:31] <dimz> skel http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23815/
[03:32] <crdlb> pot, there are much better guides than that
[03:32] <ardya> does the nvidia.ko module only work for X? ie; not framebuffer?
[03:32] <scooper> it just has a "Starting Terminal" box in the task bar and then it disapears
[03:32] <pot> atp : you can add the line in your fstab and it will work
[03:32] <skel> dimz: sorry, use sudo
[03:32] <skel> dimz: sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda
[03:32] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Alright, I moved that over. Willl I need to reboot?
[03:32] <atp> pot: ubuntu will know not to try to remount it then?
[03:32] <pot> atp : correct
[03:32] <atp> pot: but just for my own peace of mind, is it hal that is mounting my volume?
[03:33] <pot> crdlb : pretty straight forward
[03:33] <pot> atp : i believe it is hal
[03:33] <adcurti1> is there an easy way to repair permissions on my hard drive like with OSX's disk utility?
[03:33] <atp> pot: thanks :)
[03:33] <crdlb> it's for edgy
[03:33] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: You created the modules.conf you mean?
[03:33] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Yes
[03:33] <scooper> lufis:  it just has a "Starting Terminal" box in the task bar and then it disapears
[03:33] <pot> crdlb : it has a note to change "edgy" to "feisty"  when adding the repository - that is the only difference

[03:34] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: Reboot, but first just run dmesg | grep ndis
[03:34] <ardya> does the nvidia.ko module only work for X? ie; not framebuffer?

[03:34] <Aerotwelve> PurpZeY: Running that didn't do anything. It just sent me to a new command prompt
[03:35] <skel> dimz: can you give me the output of the "mount" command.. if you just type mount
[03:35] <Flannel> !sound | damageDOne
[03:35] <ubotu> damageDOne: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[03:35] <colbert> Is there any program in Ubuntu I can get to open a .img file?
[03:35] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: That means that ndiswrapper is not showing up as a device type deal...I don't *think* modules.conf will fix it, but there is action in #ndiswrapper, I seriously recommend hitting them up before continuing...

[03:37] <PurpZeY> Aerotwelve: I will help you out a bit. But basically, it seems that you have installed the driver, ndiswrapper tells you it reads the driver, but it won't find the hardware.
[03:37] <Journeyman> sweeet
[03:37] <skel> dimz: from what I can tell of line 13 of that paste, sda5 is mounted. And you have a directory in /media/sda5 . If its not the data you're expecting that should be in there..

[03:47] <stmiller> vlc can play anything
[03:47] <winternacht> Hi everyone! How are you all
[03:47] <winternacht> stmiller: vnc doesnt work on windows home server, for some insane reason.
[03:47] <winternacht> the server never remembers the password!
[03:47] <winternacht> on multiple vnc apps
[03:47] <stmiller> not vnc: vlc. video-lan-client
[03:48] <winternacht> oh, sorry.
[03:48] <stmiller> :)
[03:48] <dr_willis> vlc over vnc can get slow. :)
[03:48] <winternacht> May I ask a question?
[03:48] <Morbis|Ruin> it's wierd, that the mplayer i had for windows worked out of dos for anything and everything. but in linux (what i
[03:48] <ticky> don't ask to ask
[03:48] <dr_willis> you just did.. care to ask another? :)
[03:48] <winternacht> I work for OSDL and before I started, I had no linux experience
[03:48] <Azzkikr> winternacht: dont ask to ask a question, just ask
[03:48] <Morbis|Ruin> i'm told it was designed for originally) it doesn't work ;)
[03:48] <winternacht> I am currently clearing their server room.
[03:48] <snt> can somebody help me with grub?
[03:49] <ticky> winternacht: are you a janitor, or what
[03:49] <winternacht> I have an IBM intellistation, and I plan to move a large amount of movies and music to it, and have it also be my torrent box. ampache sounds fun too.
[03:49] <stmiller> snt: what's up?
[03:49] <winternacht> So, should I use 6.06 lts server ed or 7.04
[03:49] <snt> well i want too see which hd is hd01 or what is called
[03:49] <winternacht> Is there any advantage to using 7.04
[03:49] <snt> in the bootmenu
[03:49] <winternacht> ticky: dont be an ass. Everyone starts learning linux from the bottom
[03:50] <winternacht> I am their server room liquidator
[03:50] <snt> because if i dont load the livecd and boot to first hard drive i get "cant find operating system" so i guess its something wrong with my harddrive boot order on grub
[03:50] <stmiller> snt: type mount in a terminal and press enter
[03:50] <preston> how do you bind keys in linux
[03:50] <snt> im not in a terminal
[03:50] <winternacht> ;_;
[03:51] <dr_willis> preston,  depends on the specifics of what you are trying to do
[03:51] <stmiller> hm- oh crap okay you mean it won't boot. I see
[03:51] <snt> well it can boot
[03:51] <snt> its just that when i remove the livecd i get cant find operating system
[03:51] <winternacht> Whats better: 6.06LTS or 7.04 for a small home server that doubles as music player + torrent box?
[03:51] <preston> i have 3ddesktop, i want to be able to press a sequence and activate it
[03:51] <dr_willis> winternacht,  id go with 7.04
[03:51] <Flannel> winternacht: What sort of music player do you mean?
[03:52] <winternacht> xmms? maybe?
[03:52] <stmiller> snt: did the install go okay?
[03:52] <aKKiLLa> Amarok!
[03:52] <dr_willis> preston,  that program sort of bites.. their homepage has a faq/docs that mention how to do that for the various window managers also. :)
[03:52] <snt> yes
[03:52] <winternacht> Thats the only one I know of to be honest. I am a newbie.
[03:52] <Flannel> winternacht: If anything, you want 6.10, 6.06 has an older version of mpd, that can't stream to icecast natively.
[03:52] <Morbis|Ruin> stmiller,  you are my saviour. thanks, works :D but. one question: VLC doesn't appear in the list of apps when i click 'open with' nor is it listed when i browse for it. do you know how i would set the files i'm viewing to always open with vlc?
[03:52] <Flannel> winternacht: check out mpd ;)
[03:52] <winternacht> icecast. What is that?
[03:53] <dr_willis> !vlc
[03:53] <ubotu> Audio (Ogg, MP3...) players: Audacious, Banshee, Beep Media Player, Quod Libet, Rhythmbox, XMMS (GTK/Gnome based) and Amarok, JuK (Qt/KDE based).  Video players: Totem, Xine, MPlayer, VLC, Kaffeine  -  See also !codecs
[03:53] <dr_willis> !info vlc
[03:53] <ubotu> vlc: multimedia player and streamer. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.6.release-0ubuntu4 (feisty), package size 1131 kB, installed size 3192 kB
[03:53] <winternacht> music player daemon... cool
[03:53] <preston> dr willis, why do you say it "bites" and would you reccomend a substitute
[03:53] <chrisoverzero> Flannel: Y'know, I was just about to ask about mpd...  Could you help me out with that?
[03:53] <greencult> hi all
[03:53] <stmiller> Morbis|Ruin: If you are using gnome, you have to right click the item, then go to preferences, and specify to open with vlc
[03:53] <Flannel> icecast is a streaming music server.  mpd is the granddaddy of all media players.  Very good for servers (theres dozens of interfaces for it, web, terminal, etc)
[03:53] <stmiller> snt: sounds like you'll have to reinstall grub to the MBR
[03:53] <jdrake_> Is it safe to upgade a edgy system to feisty using dist-upgrade if it is just the command line install?
[03:53] <winternacht> yay!
[03:53] <snt> how do i do that?
[03:54] <dr_willis> preston,  its a rather old eye candy program. that dosent do a very good job. its a bother to even get going. all these people see it at the start of the package lists and just ahve to try it out.    its not worth messing with.
[03:54] <Flannel> jdrake_: yep.  Just make srue you have ubuntu-standard and ubuntu-minimal, and the appropriate metapackage for your kernel (linux-image-generic, for instance)
[03:54] <stmiller> you can boot the Feisty alternative CD into 'rescue mode' and there are options to reinstall grub
[03:54] <preston> i have it working and i like it, im just confused on how to bind keys in general
[03:54] <Morbis|Ruin> stmiller,  i do that. i go properties, openwith tab, it's not in the list. so i click add, it's not in the list there either. my only option remaining past that is 'add custom command'
[03:54] <Flannel> !grub | snt, first link (bottom for alt Cd, labelled "install cd")
[03:54] <ubotu> snt, first link (bottom for alt Cd, labelled "install cd"): grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto
[03:54] <Morbis|Ruin> 'use a custom command' even
[03:55] <jdrake_> Flannel: Is there a list of proper sources to use?
[03:55] <stmiller> Morbis|Ruin: You may have to log out/in for VLC to show up in menus. You can just type in the command vlc for now
[03:55] <Flannel> jdrake_: Just use the same ubuntu ones you're currently using.
[03:55] <dr_willis> preston,  the new beryl stuff blows it away also :)
[03:55] <Flannel> !upgrade | jdrake_
[03:55] <ubotu> jdrake_: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[03:55] <stmiller> Morbis|Ruin: in those gnome properties
[03:55] <dr_willis> preston,  depends ont he window manager.
[03:55] <jdrake_> thank you
[03:56] <preston> thanks!
[03:56] <preston> gnome
[03:57] <Flannel> chrisoverzero: Best to just ask questions.  People will answer what they know.
[03:57] <Morbis|Ruin> stmiller,  thanks. i wrote 'vlc' in use custom command, worked perfectly. if it plays _everything_ do you advise me to remove mplayer, i can always reinstall it later if i want it, right? :)
[03:57] <Morbis|Ruin> in the interest of keeping things.. clean;)
[03:58] <stmiller> Morbis|Ruin: Yes vlc is MUCH better on cpu for playing back content. But mplayer plugin is nice for firefox
[03:58] <bastid_raZor> Mplayer plays soft subs better than VLC (if you watch foriegn or anime)
[03:58] <Morbis|Ruin> ah, i saw that in the list. i might add that
[03:58] <stmiller> Morbis|Ruin: So I have both- using mplayer for the plugin but VLC for everything else
[03:59] <Morbis|Ruin> bastid_raZor, funny you say that, i am trying to watch Samurai Champloo, subbed
[03:59] <Morbis|Ruin> but Mplayer can't open it for some reason
[03:59] <bastid_raZor> try CLI to see what errors you get.
[03:59] <Morbis|Ruin> thanks for your help stmiller
[03:59] <Morbis|Ruin> bastid_raZor,  you'll have to explain, CLI? i'm a newbie with this ;)
[04:00] <bastid_raZor> command line input.. open a terminal/konsole and type mplayer filenameofanime
[04:01] <Morbis|Ruin> ooh
[04:01] <Morbis|Ruin> ok
[04:01] <Morbis|Ruin> one sec
[04:01] <bastid_raZor> normally you have to be in the directory of the file.. or type out the full path
[04:01] <Morbis|Ruin> ok
[04:02] <Morbis|Ruin> so first i type cd <directory>
[04:02] <bastid_raZor> yes
[04:02] <Morbis|Ruin> ah ok. i am learning, good ;P
[04:02] <Morbis|Ruin> one sec i will try that
[04:02] <katara> hi, my ubuntu is broken, i just update it to the last version and now i cant start it, im using kubuntu feisty
[04:02] <katara> how can i fix it?
[04:03] <bastid_raZor> if you're using kubuntu then you don't have ubuntu
[04:03] <bastid_raZor> unless you've installed ubuntu-desktop
[04:03] <bruenig> bastid_raZor, an error like that is at the core, probably not at the DE level
[04:03] <daylighter> I suck at HTML/CSS/Java, etc, are there any good WYSIWYG editors for linux?
[04:04] <Morbis|Ruin> oh btw, one question about vlc : is there a way i can set the default volume of it to very low? every time i start something it deafens me. incredibly loud for some reason.
[04:04] <katara> bastid_raZor, ok, i dont have ubuntu, i have kubuntu, but it dont pass grub. they share the core right?
[04:05] <daylighter> katara, kubuntu and ubuntu are basically the same at the core, yes, one just has a different window manager/program set than the other does
[04:05] <katara> i got, Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
[04:05] <katara> thanks daylighter
[04:05] <mboso> how do I keep my custom kernel from being upgraded when I do an apt-get upgrade. Every time I upgrade my box kernel panics, and I have to restore my old kernel

[04:08] <damageDOne> Hi I've just had a look through the !sound info and I don't know if it really applies. Sound didn't work after install of feisty. alsamixer settings are okay and are all unmuted.
[04:08] <damageDOne> aplay - l shows a soundcard(s) is installed
[04:08] <katara> sebas_, i update it, now my grub changes, i cant find windows XP option and ubuntu dont boots, i got Error 17: Cannot mount selected partition
[04:08] <damageDOne> Can someone give me more help?
[04:09] <sebas_> katara: so you have been using ubuntu and updated to 7.04 from the cd?
[04:09] <chrisoverzero> Has anyone been gotten mpd to work with PulseAudio?  I've tried to follow the instructions on the mpd wiki, but with poor (silent) results.
[04:09] <Morbis|Ruin> is it possible to navigate to directories with a space in their name, in the terminal? i get to /home/adam/main/ but i can't then go to 'Samurai Champloo' (the folder name). it says ''No such file or directory 'Samurai'
[04:10] <chrisoverzero> Morbis|Ruin: Try enclosing the path in single quotes.
[04:10] <Morbis|Ruin> thanks
[04:10] <iuc> Help! I just installed ubuntu for the 18th time, and every time i have the same problem. i've checked my graphics, speeds, and all that stuff, all of em should be fine. so what happens is that i get to the orange login screen. i put in my username then my password... then... BLAM! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING except for a blank light orange screen and my mouse pointer (which i can move around)
[04:10] <Morbis|Ruin> excellent, thanks chrisoverzero
[04:11] <EADG__> Morbis|Ruin: use tab completion, type the first couple letters of the dir then hit tab.
[04:11] <sebas_> Morbis|Ruin or you can use /a/b/Samurai*Champloo/
[04:11] <sebas_> but be careful with a directory named Samurai is not a Champloo
[04:12] <damageDOne> Hi can someone give me help with no sound working on a fresh install of feisty. I have checked to ensure the sound card is detected using "aplay -l" and have checked that the alsamixer settings are correct. I don't know what else to do.
[04:12] <iuc> i hope that people are typing to me and not ignoring me lol
[04:12] <katara> sebas_, no, i dont upgrade to 7.04, it just broke when i use the update manager
[04:13] <daylighter> yeah, I burned the CD and format/installed
[04:13] <atp> does anyone know how to simulate right and middle clicking on a macbook?  i've read in places that F11 and F12 are mapped to these by default, but that doesn't seem to be the case on my macbook
[04:13] <atp> feisty fawn fwiw
[04:13] <sebas_> katara: I'm almost sure that the error is because of a misconfiguration of /boot/grub/menu.lst
[04:14] <sebas_> katara: but I don't know that much to help you
[04:14] <geokeratz> iuc> i'm a noob, but did u tried the "alternative" installation?
[04:14] <katara> sebas_, could be, but i dont touch it
[04:15] <iuc> geokeratz: i are t3h noob as well. and guess what? 9 times Live CD, 9 times alternate. this last time was the alternate.
[04:15] <Morbis|Ruin> thanks EADG__ and sebas_
[04:15] <Morbis|Ruin> bastid_raZor, when i do it through CLI, it works
[04:15] <iuc> sooooo no one knows or what?
[04:15] <tim167_> i tried to compile a program but i got errors upon 'make', but i cant scroll back in terminal to the first occurence because too many lines were printed after it, how can i see the first error ?
[04:16] <geokeratz> iuc> i haven't used it but i always see in the chat that it's the final solution...
[04:16] <daylighter> luc, I would help, but I'm hovering just above the noob stage
[04:16] <Zvezdichko> the errors should be shown in the end
[04:16] <sebas_> katara: are you dual booting?
[04:16] <iuc> lol alrighty
[04:16] <ycmarvin> Im trying to play pls file, and trying to associate it with realplayer/vlc from mozilla firefox but I cannot locate the folder
[04:16] <katara> i was, now it broken :(
[04:17] <iuc> aw well i guess i'll just get sumthin else... like... umm..... sabanyo or whatever that thing with beryl built in is
[04:17] <sebas_> katara: take a look of this: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=428994 and search for your problem in google

[04:18] <geokeratz> katara> do u know what "katara" means in Greek??? maybe the main problem is your nickname!
[04:18] <adnan> hi
[04:18] <adnan> I have quick question
[04:18] <EADG__> ycmarvin: type 'which vlc' in a terminal to get the folder location.
[04:19] <adnan> what does PCCW stand for
[04:19] <Morbis|Ruin> anyone have any suggestions why opening a file with mplayer through CLI works, but double clicking the file (when set to open with mplayer) doesnt'
[04:19] <tim167_> stephans; did you try  dpkg-reconfigure xserver.org ?
[04:19] <aaanone> is there any way to Vista-style clear windows using regular compiz?
[04:19] <katara> geokeratz, No idea. If my nickname its a problem for ubuntu to boot..
[04:19] <adnan> anyone
[04:19] <adnan> what does PCCW stand for
[04:20] <ycmarvin> thanks EADG__
[04:20] <Rescue9> is it possible to select os prior to reboot via command line?
[04:20] <EADG__> Morbis|Ruin: does mplayer reurn an error when clicking on the file?
[04:20] <snt> how do you burn ubuntu to a dvdr?
[04:20] <Morbis|Ruin> yeah, says:
[04:20] <Rescue9> I need to select the ubuntu partition without KVM attached.
[04:20] <ycmarvin> how can I open /etc/apt/sources.list i need to edit
[04:20] <adnan> please
[04:20] <adnan> anyone
[04:20] <adnan> PCCW
[04:20] <adnan> what does it stand for
[04:20] <cheese> how do i kill x?
[04:20] <dr_willis> Rescue9,  ya could make a script to change the grubs menu.lst - i have seen some disrtos have that option in the kdm/gdm logout/reboot menus (not sure how they did that however)
[04:20] <tim167_> how can i see the *complete* list of errors of a make command ?
[04:21] <Rescue9> thanks
[04:21] <bastid_raZor> Mordbis|Ruin probably you have the wrong codec trying to run.. i had the same issue.
[04:21] <stephans> tim167_: I tried to edit the xorg... but i did not use the reconfigure option.. i assumed that since the simple vga config blew...
[04:21] <EADG__> ycmarvin: from the cli you can use nano.... sudo nano /dir/file
[04:21] <bastid_raZor> in the GUI that is.
[04:21] <dr_willis> Rescue9,  grub also has a default/makedefault option where it can rember the last selected  item.
[04:21] <jeffwheeler> How safe is it to run the development version of Ubuntu? w
[04:21] <Morbis|Ruin> error opening/initialising the selected video_out (-vo) device  EADG__
[04:21] <bastid_raZor> ycmarvin: use vim.. much easier to use.. you'll have to apt-get it though
[04:21] <ycmarvin> what's cli
[04:21] <jeffwheeler> * Would it be roughly equivalent to running Debian lenny or Sid?
[04:21] <xadin_> got a question about iptables and nobody is responding in the channel
[04:21] <stephans> does anyone on theis list use a T60P ws
[04:21] <xadin_> been working on a new firewall on ubuntu server. The kernel is compiled and has all the modules needed. When i run the script it gives an error about -state

[04:22] <ycmarvin> oh ok thanks
[04:22] <bruenig> jeffwheeler, not very safe at all
[04:22] <geokeratz> katara> means CURSE in greek. like "evil pray" ! change it and maybe god help u ! LOL . sorry, I just want to make u relax... but katara is really evil in Greece
[04:22] <jeffwheeler> bruenig: mmmk
[04:22] <xadin_> see anything wrong with that ?
[04:22] <cheese> how do i stop x??
[04:22] <tim167_> stephans: hmm, not that i know that much, but dpkg-reconfigure xserver.xorg fixed X probs for me several times
[04:22] <EADG__> Morbis|Ruin: the -vo would need to be set for X, but I don't know what to do for that error :/
[04:22] <geokeratz> katara> i thought u were greek that's why
[04:22] <adnan> I am still trying to find out
[04:22] <adnan> what PCCW stands for
[04:23] <adnan> should not be that difficult to decipher
[04:23] <tim167_> cheese ctrl+alt+backspace
[04:23] <stephans> tim167_: Ill give it a shot...
[04:23] <katara> geokeratz, no problem, nice to know that
[04:23] <adnan> I am sure someone knows it out htere
[04:23] <tim167_> oops /p
[04:23] <Morbis|Ruin> mm
[04:23] <adnan> who can tell me what PCCW stands for
[04:23] <Morbis|Ruin> well thanks EADG__
[04:23] <stephans> adnan: can you indicate what context?
[04:23] <adnan> it is more like a networking term
[04:23] <adnan> sure
[04:23] <doseryder> tim167: or use the rollback method to revert to the last known to work settings
[04:23] <Morbis|Ruin> i can just use vlc anyway ;)
[04:23] <tim167_> there goes cheese ;)
[04:23] <bastid_raZor> adnan: why don't you use google to find out?
[04:23] <Kiryn> http://stonedeadparrot.blogspot.com/2007/05/why-ubuntu-sucks.html
[04:23] <Kiryn> haha
[04:24] <adnan> it is mentioned having problems with PCCW capacity
[04:24] <adnan> and configuration of PCCW
[04:24] <adnan> I tried to use goole
[04:24] <adnan> gives me some kind of a dude
[04:24] <adnan> don't need that
[04:24] <bastid_raZor> heh
[04:24] <geokeratz> katara> one example of "katara" is telling to somebody:" I hope u will never be happy in your life". realy satanic
[04:25] <doseryder> PCCW, the ISP?
[04:25] <tim167_> doseryder, my problem is that i did a make command, and i get errors, but i need to see the first error to know what lib i am missing, but i can only scroll up a few pages in terminal
[04:25] <katara> geokeratz, lol
[04:25] <adnan> could be very well that
[04:25] <adnan> let me look into it
[04:25] <adnan> tx tough
[04:25] <sebas_> katara is now known as sam
[04:26] <bastid_raZor> tim167_ use  cat yourcommand error.txt

[04:26] <Zvezdichko> hello, I'd like to change my Xsession manager from GDM to KDM
[04:26] <Zvezdichko> how to do that?
[04:26] <doseryder> or simply yourcommand.txt > log.txt
[04:26] <dr_willis> dpkg-reconfigure kdm
[04:26] <tim167_> bastid_raZor; thanks i'll try that
[04:26] <doseryder> oops
[04:26] <dr_willis> with a sudo on front :)
[04:27] <bastid_raZor> doseryder that would as well.
[04:27] <Zvezdichko> thanks
[04:27] <doseryder> I mean yourcommand > log.txt
[04:27] <tim167_>  bastid_raZor: hmm... i get:  cat: make: No such file or directory
[04:28] <bastid_raZor> try doseryder's idea. odd that you don't have cat installed
[04:28] <houmala> does DDNS work with ubuntu??
[04:28] <hydan> " GTK+-2.10 is required to compile aurora" what package is that in apt?

[04:30] <Journeyman> how would someone go about making their own package for ubuntu
[04:30] <bastid_raZor> doseryder: look in your browser history
[04:30] <doseryder> I on the other hand was thinking it would simply be a config file that reside under /etc that i need to edit.
[04:30] <PMantis> Hello, I had a cryptroot with LUKS on Edgy, upgraded to Feisty, and had t use my old initrd to boot. Should I modify my /etc/cryptroot ?

[04:45] <mneptok> hydan: Aurora the GTK engine?

[04:46] <homanj> Paddy_EIRE: look up APTonCD
[04:46] <Paddy_EIRE> homanj, yeah got that
[04:47] <yobrien> Ropechoborra: those are the FS s the kernel knows about
[04:47] <bruenig> Paddy_EIRE, I would imagine you could wget recursively and work from there,
[04:47] <Ropechoborra> yobrien ok thanks
[04:47] <Paddy_EIRE> bruenig, would the cds/dvds work like repo disks
[04:48] <hydan> mneptok: it worked!
[04:48] <corntreat> great
[04:48] <hydan> wow. thanks.
[04:48] <mneptok> hydan: i know ;)
[04:48] <hydan> thanks bastid_raZor and thanks mneptok :)
[04:48] <mneptok> np np
[04:48] <bastid_raZor> notes taken
[04:48] <bruenig> Paddy_EIRE, why I said you could work from there, might want to check out other disks, see how they are setup, you could probably script the whole thing if you wanted, that is a lot of bandwidth usage though and the stuff gets out of date fast
[04:48] <aaanone> is there any theme or such for default Ubuntu 7.04 that will make the windows look like the emerald decorator from Beryl or do I just have to install Beryl?
[04:48] <corntreat> help....!
[04:49] <strabes> aaanone: not with transparency or effects
[04:49] <bruenig> !patience | contreat
[04:49] <Paddy_EIRE> bruenig, yeah it would be a lot of bandwidth and I believe lots of out of date apps, but still better than having nothing at all but a basic ubuntu install
[04:49] <ubotu> contreat: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[04:50] <corntreat> ok.. my bad

[04:52] <bruenig> my swap is 300 MB and it is at 0 usage right now
[04:52] <atp> how do you make beryl-manager run automatically when you log in?
[04:53] <yobrien> for big servers its important
[04:53] <strabes> bruenig: how much ram do you have? if you 1gb or more then swap won't be used very much. maybe only for suspend/hibernate
[04:53] <strabes> hibernate*
[04:53] <PMantis> atp: System->Preferences->Sessions, add it.
[04:53] <Pelo> atp, add it to   system > prefs > sessions > startup
[04:53] <damageDOne> yobrien: I don't know what you mean. I am putting the order like this 10GB root, /home, swap

[05:00] <binskipy2u> the packages
[05:00] <bastid_raZor> skyhook: yes, you do not need ubuntu for wine
[05:00] <binskipy2u> any way i can find out??
[05:00] <bastid_raZor> skyhook: i assume you have kubuntu?
[05:00] <lasking> #vmware guys all sleeping
[05:01] <Pelo> damageDOne, try this as an alternative,  make a small /home and crreate other partitons for /music and /video that you can then mount in /home , it's just a bandaid solution but it will solve the immeidate problem
[05:01] <Skyhook> bastid_raZor: so I can play my windows games with ubuntu (i have ubuntu) without installing again, maybe just by 'wine <command path>'
[05:01] <damageDOne> Pelo: is that becayuse of the bug
[05:01] <max> display config were is it?
[05:01] <Cras1> hello
[05:02] <Pelo> damageDOne, my suggestion is because of the bug yes,  if you can't make a 200+ gig partition , make a few smaller ones and mount then whithin eachother
[05:02] <bastid_raZor> skyhook: why would you install again? in wine open the .exe file
[05:02] <PMantis> Even if you can't help me, does *anyone* here run an install with a completely (except /boot) encrypted filesystem??
[05:02] <damageDOne> Pelo: what do you mean by within each other?
[05:02] <Skyhook> bastid_raZor: i dunno what I was thinking, ive only used wine by installing things in ubuntu, but thanks anyways
[05:03] <bastid_raZor> skyhook: you'll probably lose a bit in quality but it will still run
[05:03] <Cras1> how do your mount in fstab with read/write access for everyone?
[05:03] <max> does anyone use display config?
[05:03] <bruenig> Cras1, what is the filesystem/.
[05:04] <Cras1> define filesystem?
[05:04] <bruenig> s|/\.|\?|
[05:04] <Snurre_> hi, i just installed lomoco... where do I find it
[05:04] <katara> hi, i need help reintalling grub, after a update top working, how i need to know how to reintall it at mbr. i try to use the grub interactive command line, and grub-install on chrrot but i cant
[05:04] <Cras1> mean whats the path
[05:04] <bruenig> Cras1, ntfs ext3
[05:04] <Pelo> damageDOne, you can make mount points anywhere in linux, so  my suggestion is make a smallish /home ,  a /music, a /video,  etc.. then mount  to  /home/user/music , /home/user/video, etc,  so the video folder will appear inside /home,  get it ?  of you can leave them seperate , your choice
[05:04] <Cras1> oh
[05:04] <Cras1> vfat actually
[05:04] <Cras1> ugly i know
[05:05] <bruenig> Cras1, ok you need to add dmask=0000,fmask=0111 to the options part
[05:05] <Cras1> ok
[05:05] <damageDOne> Pelo: okay. I don't know how to mount them but I can create the mount points as /music and /video etc.
[05:05] <bruenig> Cras1, and make sure there is no ro or any other obvious option that specifies read only
[05:05] <damageDOne> Pelo: With 240GB how much would you recommend for /home?
[05:05] <Pelo> damageDOne, yeah or whatever you need them to be , /data , /porn , whatever
[05:06] <GrueTamer> damageDOne: im not pelo, but i would probably recommend 225-230 gigs
[05:06] <GrueTamer> but thats just how i set it up
[05:06] <Pelo> damageDOne, it realy depends on what you need/want to do,
[05:06] <bruenig> separate partitions for video and music, waste of time and complexity
[05:06] <Pelo> GrueTamer,  the problem is he can'T partiion  over 200gig in one go
[05:06] <GrueTamer> ohh
[05:07] <GrueTamer> then 199 gig :)
[05:07] <HAckujin> I have a stuck 'File Copy' window in GTK. How do i get rid of it?
[05:07] <bruenig> just make boot huge
[05:07] <HAckujin> Cancel doesn't work :(
[05:07] <damageDOne> Pelo: it's my mother-in-law's computer so it won't be porn. Mainly video I guess.
[05:07] <Pelo> damageDOne,  you never know
[05:07] <wastrel> make / 40 and /home the rest then
[05:07] <Pelo> gtg,  later folks
[05:07] <wastrel> / doesn't need 40 but it won't hurt
[05:08] <Cras1> /dev/sda2 /mnt/ipod vfat defaults,user,dmask=0000,fmask=0111, noauto 0 0
[05:08] <yoyovoe> #ubuntu-cn
[05:08] <GrueTamer> thats probably a good idea, actually, id do what wastrel said
[05:08] <Cras1> would that be the right setup then?
[05:08] <coldfront_> whats the commandline command for checking when a file/dir was last modified?
[05:09] <ajax4> I just installed a TV card for MythTV. Anyone know how to find the device name?

[05:10] <HAckujin> how do i restart GTK without restarting or login/logout ?
[05:10] <ajax4> Cras1: Yeah, I think thats it. Thx.
[05:10] <Cras1> HAckujin: i think its ctrl+f12
[05:10] <Cras1> ajax4: if you know the brand name
[05:11] <Cras1> try this
[05:11] <Cras1> dmesg | grep brandname

[05:13] <damageDOne> GrueTamer: can you tell me what each of these would be (primary or logical), "/", "/home", "/video", "/music".
[05:13] <GrueTamer> uh...
[05:13] <damageDOne> GrueTamer: I'm confused

[05:14] <damageDOne> GrueTamer: do you have one primary? Or are they all primary bar the swap?
[05:14] <ajax4> madman91: is that the full url of the file you are trying to get?
[05:14] <Snurre_> shod all my installed programs be under one of the "subjects" games etc. under programs on the start menu
[05:14] <Cras1> bruenig: you alive?
[05:14] <GrueTamer> maybe 20 gigs for /, 30 for /video, 30 for /music, 512mb-1 gig for swap, rest for /home
[05:14] <Snurre_> ?
[05:14] <Akuma_> how can i quit tomboy?
[05:14] <madman91> ajax4: well.. it is http://www.somethingiforgetnowbutitisavalidlink.com/file/path/here
[05:14] <GrueTamer> you can only have three primary partitions, so...
[05:14] <Ezep> escuse me
[05:15] <madman91> ajax4: but wget spits out errors..
[05:15] <jtt> how do i get  the list of packages that have upgrades available
[05:15] <Cras1> how do you mount your ipod in fstab with read write access /dev/sda2 /mnt/ipod vfat defaults,user,dmask=0000,fmask=0111, noauto 0 0 doesn't work
[05:15] <Ezep> could anyone help me?
[05:15] <Snurre_> this is insane
[05:15] <GrueTamer> Ezep: ask away
[05:15] <strabes> Cras1: does it not automount?
[05:16] <Jordan_U> GrueTamer, What is the advantage of having a seperate partition for music / video, I understand a separate /home but why anything more?
[05:16] <bruenig> Cras1, make sure there is no space between that last comma and noauto
[05:16] <strabes> Jordan_U: so you don't have to back up all your music etc when you reinstall
[05:16] <ajax4> madman91: That error to me suggests an invalid url/domain name.
[05:16] <bruenig> Cras1, and take defaults out
[05:16] <GrueTamer> Jordan_U: he asked me how to set up those partitions, so i told him how i would do it

[05:16] <Ezep> warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 does not exist or is not a directory

[05:17] <wersdaluv> in gnome,how do I replace metacity with the xfce window manager?
[05:17] <GrueTamer> i dont know
[05:17] <bruenig> Cras1, yeah try that, make sure you umount and then mount it
[05:17] <strabes> Jordan_U: i guess there isn't a reason not to. I don't have a separate home partition though so i DO have a separate data partition
[05:18] <pm2>  As I'm fighting with slapd, I'm seeing on the console and in syslog messages like "slapd[5513]  general protection rip:2b248e[more hex code]  rsp:[hex codes]  error:0" -- what might this mean>
[05:18] <wersdaluv> In gnome,how do I replace metacity with the xfce window manager?
[05:18] <GrueTamer> wersdaluv: uh...try xfwm --replace in the terminal
[05:18] <damageDOne> Jordan_U: it's because there is a bug in feisty that prevents you from having partitiions over 200GB. This means that I have to divide up my 240GB drive into more than just / and /home
[05:18] <GrueTamer> and you dont have to keep asking
[05:18] <Ezep> GrueTamer, ok
[05:18] <GrueTamer> i dont know if itll work
[05:18] <wersdaluv> GrueTamer, "command not found"
[05:18] <linuxgeekery> wersdaluv: it's xfwm4 --replace
[05:18] <pot> wersdaluv : you dont do that in gnome - when you login select options then session
[05:19] <Jordan_U> damageDOne, That sounds absurd, have you filed a bug or is there one already filed, and is this only a limitation of the LiveCD installer?
[05:19] <GrueTamer> pot: he wants gnome with the xfwm, for some reason
[05:19] <linuxgeekery> pot: you can do it
[05:19] <pot> oh
[05:19] <damageDOne> Jordan_U: it's already filed
[05:19] <GrueTamer> hmm, xfwm4, right, forgot the 4
[05:19] <GrueTamer> just like i sometimes forget the 4 when i grab xfce

[05:24] <wersdaluv> is there a file that I can edit to replace metacity with xfwm4?
[05:24] <Jordan_U> IntangibleLiquid, Yes
 that's extremely kool!
[05:25] <Snurre_> this is not fore human beings
[05:25] <IsleVegan> I just posted something on the paste bin, first i posted what i did, then I posted the instructions from RealTek
[05:26] <IsleVegan> any helpful comments would be appreciated :-)
 does wubi support .iso image?
[05:27] <Parmenion> IntangibleLiquid, it downloads its own iso image
[05:27] <Parmenion> though, you can input your own
[05:28] <Parmenion> if it matches the version its d/ling
[05:28] <Jordan_U> IntangibleLiquid, What do you mean? It doesn't use the standard install iso but it doesn't require burning a CD
[05:28] <Parmenion> it uses the alternate cd afaik
[05:28] <truong> 105A-0000-0000-0888-E048-D636-ACDF-25E6
 I have the standard cd, can I use that image

[05:41] <jimmygoon> s, after you have that, tell me
[05:41] <lunixman> port forwarding helps in torrent download speed yes?
[05:41] <silvernode> shiryu:download automatix and install ctrl+alt+del
[05:41] <IsleVegan> lunixman, there is also bittornado which works for me
[05:42] <Snurre_> no bittornado sucks
[05:42] <silvernode> shiryu:it will make task manager thingy come up in ubuntu
[05:42] <jimmygoon> lunixman, you don't need a static iP for torrents, and you shouldn't have to pay for a dynamic ip and what does this have to do with port forwarding?
[05:42] <c0ldfront> Yo im having some trouble im trying to patch my kernel with make patch_kernel and it comes up with an error when i try todo it cp: cannot stat `{*.c,in-tree/{Makefile,Kconfig},compat.h}': No such file or directory
[05:42] <s> ok i extracted it to my desktop now what
[05:42] <Cras1> that didsn't work
[05:42] <IsleVegan> snurre, it works well for me
[05:42] <noiesmo> !firestarter
[05:42] <ubotu> Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[05:42] <shiryu> ok silvernode one more thing
[05:42] <jimmygoon> lunixman, port forwarding is letting connections through a firewall... ubuntu doesn't come with one by default... only your router would
[05:42] <jimmygoon> s, let me DL and check
[05:42] <Cras1> doesn't work still denied premission
[05:42] <shiryu> do  you know a driver for linux printer? i only find the driver of my printer for windows
[05:42] <s> i have mupen thing on my desktop how do i install it now
[05:42] <noiesmo> Cras1, you will prob need to sudo chown 775 /blah/blah
[05:43] <linuxgeekery> shiryu: what's your printer
[05:43] <silvernode> shiryu:ok
[05:43] <linuxgeekery> Cras1: it should be chmod, not chown
[05:43] <Jordan_U> shiryu, All of the drivers are available in a default install.
[05:43] <jimmygoon> um, s, just click the icon labeled "mupen64" and then it will run....???
[05:43] <lunixman> jimmygoon, : my friend told me port forwarding is supposed to make downloading faster
[05:43] <jimmygoon> s, yo udon't have to install
[05:43] <stmiller> shiryu: install gimp print drivers
[05:43] <linuxgeekery> lunixman: not reall
[05:43] <Snurre_> this os is easy but, new people cant navigate in it
[05:43] <jimmygoon> lunixman, do you have a NAT firewall/router?
[05:43] <s> jordan
[05:43] <linuxgeekery> lunixman: really*
[05:43] <noiesmo> !firestarter > lunixman
[05:43] <Snurre_> but
[05:44] <iratsu> anyone know anything about ssh public key authentication?
[05:44] <Peggerr> anyone run openvpn for a high traffic site?
[05:44] <jimmygoon> lunixman, if you have a firewall blocking the ports then yes, otherwise NO
[05:44] <shiryu> x2350
[05:44] <pot> Snurre_ i was new during Slackware 1.0    figured it out being a windows user at the time
[05:44] <s> i extracted to desktop i have a folder and tar for mupen now what
[05:44] <lunixman> jimmygoon, : i didnt install any firewall
[05:44] <stmiller> and also try installing foomatic-db-gimp-print and foomatic-db-gutenprint
[05:44] <Peggerr> I am looking to see how much traffic openvpn can handle on  a high peformance server
[05:44] <silvernode> shurre:because it's new to them so they are noobs all over again
[05:44] <noiesmo> lunixman, open the ports on your pc that torrent uses and on your adsl modem or router foward the ports to the pc running torrent client
[05:44] <lunixman> but wait, how do i know if i have NAT?
[05:44] <jimmygoon> lunixman - do you have a router?
[05:44] <lunixman> yes
[05:44] <lunixman> scientific atlanta
[05:44] <Jordan_U> s Just double click the file named mupen
[05:45] <s> ok
[05:45] <jimmygoon> s, go in the folder! double click the "mupen64" file.. it doesn't get any easier
[05:45] <shiryu> stmiller how i use it i already had this
[05:45] <jimmygoon> lunixman, then you need to forward the ports through your router --- not through linux
[05:46] <s> jordan i have it started
[05:46] <s> now i just download the games
[05:46] <s> or......
[05:46] <jimmygoon> s, yes, you want "rom"s
[05:46] <Fawaz> i have setup a server to do natting.. i installed dhcp3-server bind9 and configuered iptable to nat but my pc client still can't connect to the internet .. what am i missing
[05:46] <stmiller> shiryu: have you tried the gnome print utility?
[05:46] <lunixman> jimmygoon, : how do i directly access my router?
[05:47] <jimmygoon> lunixman, that is outside this IRC channel, you need to look at the manual for your router or consult their website, every router is different
[05:47] <noiesmo> web browser prop 192.168.0.1 or 10.0.0.1 lunixman
[05:47] <stmiller> shiryu: gnome-cups-manager
[05:47] <bastid_raZor> noiesmo: faster typer  than me..
[05:47] <s> jordan how do i get geames for it
[05:47] <jimmygoon> it will consist of you finding out the default gateway (ifconfig) of your router and then using firefox to load/login to it and change the appropriate settings
[05:47] <jimmygoon> s, thats illegal
[05:47] <noiesmo> bastid_raZor, a ha
[05:47] <maddog39> how can I blow the hell out of metacity, im trying to run xfwm4 in gnome and im ripping my hair out
[05:48] <jimmygoon> s, do you have an ubuntuforums.org account or are you registered with freenode... I might be able to offer assistance
[05:48] <jimmygoon> maddog39, you could use beryl's decorators
[05:48] <Fawaz> can someone give me tips
[05:48] <bastid_raZor> maddog39: find some lighter fluid..
[05:48] <shiryu> ok ill try it stmiller
[05:48] <maddog39> bastid_raZor, on dapper, not a chance
[05:48] <shiryu> and silvernode where i download automatix
[05:48] <noiesmo> !ask | Fawaz
[05:48] <ubotu> Fawaz: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[05:49] <xtknight> how do i set the spellchecker in firefox to use en-US instead of other english?  it thinks "center" is wrong (it thinks it should be "centre") but "centre" is incorrect in the US
[05:49] <Fawaz> already asked
[05:49] <maddog39> if i try to killall metacity it just triggers a fallback, like wtf and I've done this before but was NEVER as hard as all the Howtos say
[05:49] <silvernode> shiryu:i fond it on google just type in automatix and it's the first one
[05:49] <maddog39> and the Howto's dont even work
[05:49] <Fawaz>  i have setup a server to do natting.. i installed dhcp3-server bind9 and configuered iptable to nat but my pc client still can't connect to the internet .. what am i missing
[05:49] <jimmygoon> maddog39, you want NO window manager, or a replacement?
[05:50] <stmiller> Fawaz: you have to edit the dhcpd.conf
[05:50] <maddog39> jimmygoon, i want to replace metacity with xfwm4
[05:50] <Fawaz> stmiller my dhcp senver is ok i believe clients already getting ips
[05:50] <jimmygoon> maddog39, so call the window decorator and pass it the equivalent of --replace
[05:50] <noiesmo> Fawaz, does client get ip from server? check if client can access net with firewall down if so iptables maybe incorrect or nat not set prop
[05:50] <maddog39> jimmygoon, xfwm4 doesnt have an euqivalent to --replace, thats the thing
[05:51] <jimmygoon> maddog39, what is the "normal" way of running it?
[05:51] <Fawaz> my iptables allow all trafic no rules there other than the NAT rule to masquerade
[05:51] <jimmygoon> maddog39, can you log out and drop to the GDM screen and select xfwm4 as the session choice?
[05:51] <stmiller> Fawaz: ah, I see. this can get sticky, depending on how your iptables is config'd
[05:51] <maddog39> jimmygoon, just by running xfwm4, but complains that metacity is running
[05:52] <silvernode> shiryu:go here http://www.getautomatix.com/apt/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/automatix2_1.1-4.5-7.04feisty_i386.deb
[05:52] <jimmygoon> maddog39, dunna if it would work but you could try stringing: "killall metacity; xfwm4" in one line like that...
[05:52] <maddog39> i tried killall metacity && xfwm4 --composite=on and metacity just restarted and xfwm4 startup failed
[05:52] <jimmygoon> oh
[05:52] <Snurre_> hallo I want to configure my tum buttons on my logitech mx518 have do i do this
[05:52] <Fawaz> stmiller: i just addesd the rule      iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE
[05:52] <maddog39> i did this before in a similar way and i dont understand why its not working
[05:52] <jimmygoon> never mind then. so, you WANT gnome, just not metacity... you might try digging around in gconf-editor, as much as that sounds lijke some kind of sick death sentence
[05:52] <maddog39> i dont remember how exactly i did it either
[05:53] <shiryu> thanks silvernode
[05:53] <Snurre_> crap
[05:53] <p1ls> is there a program, that allows you to add a picturs so it will be your screensaver later/
[05:53] <stmiller> Fawaz: Have you tried Arno's iptables script? I think there might even be a deb
[05:53] <silvernode> shiryu:let me know if you have any other questions and i will try and answer the best i can if at all your welcome :-)
[05:53] <shiryu> and why ubuntu is unafected of virus?
[05:53] <linuxgeekery> maddog39: there's a preference in gnome that says "don't autostart components" somewhere
[05:54] <maddog39> linuxgeekery, oh wait i forgot, maybe its in Sessions under the Preferences menu, "Autostarted apps"
[05:54] <linuxgeekery> maddog39: yeah!
[05:54] <Fawaz> stmiller: no .. but i don't want any rules yet just need the server to masquerade
[05:54] <jimmygoon> shiryu- frequent updates, opensource tech, package management, and low desktop share
[05:54] <p1ls> is there a program, that allows you to add a picturs so it will be your screensaver later/
[05:54] <maddog39> linuxgeekery, metacity isnt in there though :/
[05:55] <stmiller> Fawaz: I use this on my server (though it's running debian) http://packages.ubuntu.com/feisty/net/arno-iptables-firewall
[05:55] <jimmygoon> p1ls - it is an option for the screensaver.. its like "Pictures" or something... it uses a Pictures folder in yoru ~/
[05:55] <p1ls> yea, i know , but what progrma has it, xscreensaver no, gnome-screensaver , no
[05:56] <jimmygoon> maddog39, google rocks- http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Xfwm4
[05:56] <Snurre_> is there a guide to guide u true this OS?
[05:56] <jimmygoon> p1ls- its in my gnome-screensaver... I think, lemme look
[05:56] <Aerotwelve> !pastebin
[05:56] <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)
[05:56] <Fawaz> stmiller: let me have a look thanx
[05:57] <maddog39> okay figured it out, went into Prefs > Sessions > Curr. Session and changed metacity's startup style to normal vs. restart and it worked
[05:57] <jimmygoon> p1ls, yes, it is, its called "Pictures folder" in the "Screensaver Preferences" in yoru "Preferences" window...
[05:57] <jimmygoon> p1ls, gnome-screensaver
[05:57] <stmiller> Fawaz: yeah a lot easier than configuring my own scripts and such. And lots of help for this arno thing all over google
[05:57] <jimmygoon> maddog39 -- ::: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Xfwm4

[05:58] <Fawaz> stmiller: i highly doubt my problem with iptables but will have a look thanks
[05:58] <silvernode> shiryu:I have to go
[05:59] <stmiller> hilltop: using Feisty?
[05:59] <str4> hi
[05:59] <c0ldfront> hi
[05:59] <flam> hm, anyone knows why gnome goes all slow when i loose my network connection?
[06:00] <Elfboy> when i remove a install and reinstall it when does it not do a fresh install
[06:00] <str4> I'll find out
[06:00] <p1ls> hmm, wierd, i cannot open it;-/
[06:00] <oddalot> anyone good with dual screen xorg.conf settings?
[06:00] <maddog39> wonderful, not xfce settings manager wont let me change any WM settings because it still thinks metacity is running, though its not
[06:00] <maddog39> now*
[06:01] <hilltop> Mint 3.0
[06:01] <Elfboy> when i remove a install and reinstall it when does it not do a fresh install
[06:01] <dr_willis> hilltop,  how did you install them?
[06:02] <lasking> guys where can download gxmame?
[06:02] <dr_willis> !find mame
[06:02] <ubotu> Found: kxmame, xmame-common, xmame-gl, xmame-sdl, xmame-svga (and 2 others)
[06:02] <jimmygoon> p1ls, can't open what?
[06:02] <Ubuntu_newbie> Can anybody help a newbie?
[06:02] <dr_willis> lasking,  if its not in the repos check its home page. You may have to use the source
[06:02] <jfrerichs> hi all im trying to get my logitech mouse to auto connect does anyone know how
[06:02] <p1ls> gnome-screensaver
[06:03] <jimmygoon> p1ls, what is stopping you
[06:03] <PMantis> Again, does anyone here run a CryptRoot Feisty, like described here?  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto7
[06:03] <p1ls> in console i put, gnome-screensaver
[06:03] <p1ls> and it dosent give me nothing
[06:03] <jimmygoon> !ask > Ubuntu_newbie
[06:03] <p1ls> then i put it again
[06:03] <p1ls> it shows me its running...
[06:03] <p1ls> i kill it same process
[06:03] <hilltop> I have installed Xboard & crafty-books-medium and crafty.  crafty runs as CLI.
[06:03] <stmiller> p1ls: that starts the screensaver process
[06:03] <jimmygoon> p1ls, are you running gnome?
[06:03] <dr_willis> p1ls,  its a service waiting in the bacground.. you expect it to start the screensaver?
[06:03] <p1ls> yes
[06:03] <Fawaz> is there anyother firewall installed with fiesty other than iptables?
[06:04] <stmiller> p1ls: try gnome-screensaver-preferences I think
[06:04] <Ubuntu_newbie> I'm planning to install Ubuntu on my new Dell E1505
[06:04] <p1ls> it works, but then there is no option of adding pictures and making it a slide show
[06:04] <jimmygoon> p1ls, then open the menu and goto "Screensaver" on the preference menu
[06:04] <lasking> dr_willis: give me its home page url?
[06:04] <jimmygoon> or type gnome-screensaver-preferences
[06:04] <mneptok> !ask > Ubuntu_newbie
[06:04] <mneptok> :)
[06:04] <jimmygoon> you just select "Pictures folder" as the option... and then create folder called "Pictures" in your home folder... and put pictures in it
[06:05] <Elfboy> i install kvirc then removed it and reinstalled but it dod not do fresh install
[06:05] <p1ls> when you guys open that, you got the option to add pictures?
[06:05] <dr_willis> lasking,  id have to google for it..
[06:05] <Ubuntu_newbie> I just wanna know if it;s gonna mess with the recovery partitions that come with the pc
[06:05] <jimmygoon> mneptop, I already did that :P... he didn't respond
[06:05] <hilltop> dr_willis, stmiller: xboard runs with board image - no crafty.  crafty runs CLI and wants a move. But I wish to make them work togather.
[06:05] <Snurre_> plz, help me. I want to configure my logitech mouse, like the tum bottons and stuff. how do i do this
[06:05] <jimmygoon> Ubuntu_newbie, not unless you mess them up :)
[06:05] <jimmygoon> Snurre_, cross your fingers and delve into xorg.conf
[06:06] <Snurre_> what is  xorg.conf
[06:06] <hilltop> dr_willis, stmiller: I'm running Mint 3.0 based on Feisty.  Thanks
[06:06] <stmiller> p1ls: yes in gnome-screensaver-preferences pick 'Pictures Folder' as the screensaver
[06:06] <jimmygoon> Ubuntu_newbie, you should be able to partition your hard drive leaving your windows and recovery partitions intact and creating two new partitions - one for ubuntu and one for swap... shouldn't harm either of the other two
[06:06] <p1ls> no option ;-/
[06:06] <jimmygoon> Snurre_, put your helmet on /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[06:06] <p1ls> nevermind
[06:06] <jimmygoon> p1ls - its not an option. you make the folder yourself and put the pictures in it
[06:06] <p1ls> thanks
[06:06] <jimmygoon> you just select "Pictures folder" as the option... and then create folder called "Pictures" in your home folder... and put pictures in it
[06:06] <jimmygoon> no problem
[06:06] <GenNMX> How do I destroy a mdadm raid array? I think I screwed up making this array.
[06:07] <jfrerichs> jimmy is ur mouse bluetooth
[06:07] <Ubuntu_newbie> Will ubuntu be the default OS at boot
[06:07] <stmiller> Snurre_: what model is your mouse?
[06:07] <p1ls> wait , so i just add the picutures right?
[06:07] <Ubuntu_newbie> if so how can I change it to Vista
[06:07] <jimmygoon> Ubuntu_newbie, You can install grub to let your choose between ubuntu and the other OS
[06:08] <Ubuntu_newbie> is it free?
[06:08] <jimmygoon> Ubuntu_newbie, but if you isntall ubuntu now, and vista later, vista will over write it
[06:08] <jimmygoon> Ubuntu_newbie, you are a newbie... :) ... of course its free :)
[06:08] <stmiller> :)
[06:08] <Ubuntu_newbie> Vista came with my dell laptop
[06:09] <stmiller> Ubuntu_newbie: did it come with a vista install disc?
[06:09] <Ubuntu_newbie> and since I'm having all sorts of problems
[06:09] <Ubuntu_newbie> no surprise there
[06:09] <Ubuntu_newbie> I'm currently running it as an admin with all protections deactivated
[06:09] <mneptok> Ubuntu_newbie: laptop hardware can be more troublesome (especially wifi). use the live CD to test your machine before you install.
[06:09] <TheDorneMan> how do i connect to a dial-up connection?
[06:09] <Ubuntu_newbie> that way I can run my Open source apps
[06:09] <hilltop> dr_willis, stmiller: I'll try crafty/xboard from Feisty livecd next time I boot it up.  Thanks
[06:09] <Ubuntu_newbie> without probs
[06:10] <Ubuntu_newbie> I want ubuntu to do my internet banking and secure stuff
[06:10] <TheDorneMan> how do i detect my modem in ubuntu 7.04 (fiesty)?
[06:10] <zcat[1] > I suspect that's how most people will end up running vista..
[06:10] <Ubuntu_newbie> LOL
[06:10] <Ubuntu_newbie> you are right
[06:10] <TheDorneMan> how do i connect to a dial-up connection?
[06:10] <TheDorneMan> how do i connect to a dial-up connection?
[06:10] <TheDorneMan> how do i connect to a dial-up connection?
[06:10] <TheDorneMan> how do i connect to a dial-up connection?
[06:10] <TheDorneMan> how do i connect to a dial-up connection?
[06:10] <daylighter> ewww
[06:11] <TheDorneMan> someone please tell me!!!
[06:11] <daylighter> stop spamming
[06:11] <Ubuntu_newbie> the good thing is that I sorta knew Ubuntu was compatible with intel pro wireless
[06:11] <Ubuntu_newbie> so i took a chance when i configured my laptop
[06:11] <zcat[1] > I had to do some work on a vista machine on friday.. addint it to a domain.. saw the UAC box about twenty tiems in about as many minutes, by the end I was just clicking Allow without even looking at it.. :)
[06:11] <Ubuntu_newbie> and it paid off
[06:11] <TheDorneMan> I'm NOT! >:o
[06:11] <jimmygoon> Ubuntu_newbie, you can always through "ubuntu" and your model number in google and see what others have said
[06:11] <Ubuntu_newbie> The live DVD 7.04 recognizes wifi
[06:12] <jimmygoon> TheDorneMan, stop spamming, be polite/patient and others will help, I would, but I don't know how to answer your question
[06:12] <daylighter> zcat[1] , the first thing I do when I go on a VIsta machine is to drill down into the control panel and disable UAC, I hate it
[06:12] <mneptok> Ubuntu_newbie: then you should have no problems when you install
[06:12] <TheDorneMan> ok
[06:12] <Ubuntu_newbie> so I'm ready to start the change
[06:12] <TheDorneMan> UAC is dumb
[06:12] <stmiller> TheDorneMan: Just open up "Network" under the menu
[06:12] <crdlb> !away > dthomasdigital
[06:12] <Ubuntu_newbie> the only thing that had me worried was the partition thing
[06:13] <daylighter> if only UAC was like gksudo, where it wouldnt ask you for a while, then I could tolerate it
[06:13] <stmiller> TheDorneMan: and enable the modem
[06:13] <TheDorneMan> I opened network, now what?
[06:13] <Ubuntu_newbie> UAC really sucks
[06:13] <Ubuntu_newbie> I stared using it
[06:13] <zcat[1] > I set up my ubuntu desktop so every time I plug anything in, it pops up a dialog "OMFG: usb mouse detected" and I have to click OK.. it's almost like using Vista :)
[06:13] <Ubuntu_newbie> and said "to hell with it"
[06:13] <daylighter> LOL
[06:13] <stmiller> TheDorneMan: Click on 'Modem connection' and click properties, check 'enable'
[06:13] <daylighter> how'd you do that, zcat?
[06:13] <daylighter> I want it to tell me what's going on
[06:13] <TheDorneMan> i've set up my modem, how do i connect to my isp
[06:14] <p1ls> thanks ;] 
[06:14] <stmiller> TheDorneMan: and put in your isp dialup info
[06:14] <TheDorneMan> done
[06:14] <zcat[1] > the autorun settings in gnome.. doesn't cover everything but it works for drives, mp3 players, cameras, usb mice and keyboards, etc..
[06:14] <Ubuntu_newbie> thanks for the help and info
[06:15] <Ubuntu_newbie> maybe tomorrow will be the day
[06:15] <TheDorneMan> i've put in my isp info
[06:15] <zcat[1] > I was so inspired by my first look at Vista where it helpfully warned about the USB mouse (and then failed to find drivers for it!!)
[06:15] <TheDorneMan> now how do i connect
[06:15] <stmiller> TheDorneMan: If settings are all in that network settings thing, then you should be able to check the modem connection box and it should connect
[06:15] <Brade1> is there always people saying something 24/7 here?
[06:16] <Brade1> on this irc channel?
[06:16] <zcat[1] > Brade1: pretty much 24/7 yeah
[06:16] <jimmygoon> yes
[06:16] <Brade1> cool
[06:16] <TheDorneMan> ohhhhhhhh that's how :-/
[06:16] <Brade1> gtg
[06:16] <stmiller> TheDorneMan: :)
[06:16] <Brade1> cya
[06:16] <Ubuntu_newbie> I'm even thinking to going back to XP and double boot with ubuntu
[06:16] <Brade1> u do that
[06:16] <Brade1> i have windoze only but i want linux
[06:16] <Brade1> :)
[06:16] <silvernode> yes xp is better than vista at this point
[06:16] <Brade1> YES!!!!!!
[06:17] <daylighter> Brade1, that's the way I am... if I could leave windows completely behind, I would
[06:17] <Brade1> VISTA SUX
[06:17] <Brade1> ok good for you
[06:17] <jimmygoon> then stop using it?
[06:17] <mmmmm> anyone want to help me convince the nullDC author to release a linux version / open source ?? http://forums.ngemu.com/nulldc-forum/89980-linux-port.html
[06:17] <zcat[1] > most of my machines are linux-only.. even the dualboot ones I've taken it out of grub so the kids can't get around timeoutd
[06:17] <daylighter> I installed vista once, and I had to clean the vomit and nose-rained soda off my keyboard
[06:17] <Brade1> eww
[06:17] <aleka> Can someone help me with CUPS-PDF. Installed the package and went through the setup (for a new printer) when it came to choose the drivers, I did not know what to put, sop I selected the top in the list.. now am printing test pages (from Firefox) and the files created are all blank sheets
[06:17] <Brade1> so vista was that bad
[06:17] <Brade1> ?
[06:17] <silvernode> Has anyone noticed the bug in feisty where you log out and log back in only to find that no apps load and fail to work?
[06:18] <Brade1> oh dear
[06:18] <Ubuntu_newbie> speaking about browsers
[06:18] <Brade1> that doesent sound good
[06:18] <Brade1> gtg
[06:18] <Brade1> cya
[06:18] <stmiller> silvernode: no problem here. Sounds like a hostname or domain name issue on your network
[06:18] <Ubuntu_newbie> is there any other browser besides firefox
[06:18] <zcat[1] > silvernode: if you log out it should be ok. If you cltr-alt-backspace it, yes. Seen that bug..
[06:18] <Ubuntu_newbie> in ubuntu i mean
[06:18] <stmiller> Ubuntu_newbie: there's opera or konqueror both are excellent
[06:19] <aleka> no pointers on the CUPS-PDF?
[06:19] <Ubuntu_newbie> I used opera in the past
[06:19] <TheDorneMan> how do i activate/deactivate the modem monitor applet in the gnome panel, the activate/deactivate buttons are greyed out, do i have to have the connection established first or something, what is the purpose of the modem monitor applet? =-O
[06:19] <daylighter> I need help figuring out how to make apps I dont want to load stop loading, I have certain things set to start up on purpose, but every time I load gnome, nautilus, a terminal, and rhythmbox open up, and I dont want them to!
[06:19] <Ubuntu_newbie> was the first browser with tabs
[06:19] <Ubuntu_newbie> i think
[06:19] <stmiller> aleka: Just print to file> filename.ps
[06:20] <zcat[1] > daylighter: get it how you want, then alt-F2 and type 'gnome-session-save'
[06:20] <daylighter> I dont want anything extraneously loading
[06:20] <silvernode> zcat[1] :I have no "network"persay if you mean using 1 out of many computers connected to a router. I just have a dsl modem and I get the bug even after a fresh install of ubuntu when i log out normally. After i reset it's fine again. Weird!
[06:20] <riotkittie> I need to switch to wireless fulltime, and I'm having issues. At one point, I was able to connect and nm-applet would give me a list of networks. now nm-app is saying "no network devices have been found", and in network tools, ath0 shows as an unrecognized device. does anyone have any ideas?
[06:20] <zcat[1] > silvernode: that is weird..
[06:20] <aleka> stmiller: the pdf extension is supposed to provide a virtual printer that makes pdf files right?, and am not sure why am getting blanks
[06:20] <Journeyman> I can't seem to edit my main menu
[06:21] <aleka> was thinnking someone surely had already tried setting this up...
[06:21] <jimmygoon> Journeyman, and why is that?
[06:21] <Journeyman> I right click and select edit menu, it shows the waiting icon and I see it in the task bar, then it just closes
[06:21] <Journeyman> I never see the window itself
[06:21] <silvernode> zcat[1] :Most likely hardware issues i assume.
[06:21] <jrib> Journeyman: run 'alacarte' in a terminal
[06:21] <stmiller> Ubuntu has a postscript printer built in. Just 'print to file' in the application. And name the file something.ps  you can open that .ps file in a pdf viewer, and save it as a pdf
[06:21] <jimmygoon> Journeyman, thats unfortunate... edgy/fiesty?
[06:21] <jimmygoon> Journeyman, do you have any updates you've been neglecting to install
[06:22] <Journeyman> fiesty
[06:22] <aleka> stmiller: let me give it a try
[06:22] <Journeyman> I have been gone for about 2 weeks, and installed a bunch of updates today
[06:22] <jimmygoon> Journeyman, did you restart :)
[06:22] <Journeyman> yes
[06:22] <jimmygoon> Journeyman, you can try launching it from a terminal to watch the output
[06:22] <Journeyman> jrib alacarte gives me an error
[06:22] <jimmygoon> its called "alacarte"
[06:23] <jrib> Journeyman: yes, that is what you need to show us, use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[06:23] <jimmygoon> jrib's always ahead of me
[06:23] <aleka> stmiller: Thanks a bunch.,.. that worked..
[06:23] <Journeyman> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23831/
[06:23] <riotkittie> :(
[06:23] <stmiller> aleka: no prob. :) I think most pdf readers can open .ps files in Windows or OS X also
[06:24] <jrib> Journeyman: ls /usr/share/pycentral/alacarte/site-packages/Alacarte/MainWindow.py    what is the output?
[06:24] <aleka> Great :)
[06:24] <Journeyman> /usr/share/pycentral/alacarte/site-packages/Alacarte/MainWindow.py
[06:24] <silvernode> Has anyone seen the "mac dock" application or know what it's called? I would like to get it. Am i thinking of gdesklets?
[06:24] <daylighter> People of the earth can you hear me? - Came a voice from the sky on that magical night.... (I love billy thorpe)
[06:25] <riotkittie> no thats not gdesklets. i forget what its called tho
[06:25] <jimmygoon> silvernode, there are tons of those...
[06:25] <stmiller> silvernode: check out kde-look.org
[06:25] <jimmygoon> kdock, kiba-dock, um, gnome-dock/cairo-dock, avant-window-navigator... the list goes on and on
[06:25] <jrib> Journeyman: python -c 'import sys; print sys.path'    output on pastebin
[06:25] <daylighter> gdesklets is always buggy and crashy when I try to use it
[06:26] <daylighter> I wish we could get Yahoo! Widgets or something
[06:26] <jimmygoon> gdesklets is crap if you ask me
[06:26] <stmiller> daylighter: yeah I've seen that too. gDesklets is actually really good, but I think the widgets are not written so great
[06:26] <riotkittie> maybe i should suck it up and do a re-install. though i doubt that will help
[06:26] <silvernode> jimmygoon:thanks cuz gdesklets failed to put a :load on startup" option in their program which is annoying
[06:26] <daylighter> wasnt konfabulator a linux app?
[06:26] <Journeyman> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23833/
[06:26] <jimmygoon> silvernode, no apps have that... its up to the session manager...
[06:26] <n2diy__> riotkittie: long time no see, what's up, what is the trouble?
[06:27] <pauliukas> Is this chatroom for Ubuntu Server edition too?
[06:27] <jimmygoon> silvernode, if you want to do that... goto "System" -> "Preferences" -> "Sessions"  and then you'll find the startup programs
[06:27] <stmiller> daylighter: konfabulator was an os x app, but one is similar for kde
[06:27] <daylighter> oh, okay
[06:27] <riotkittie> n2diy__: hello, yeah it has been a while.  i'm having wireless issues :\
[06:27] <silvernode> jimmygoon:Thanks now I know how to do "msconfig" in ubuntu lol
[06:27] <daylighter> son of a female dog, I wish I was a developer, I have so much software in my head that I wish I could write
[06:27] <daylighter> I Can design it, but I cant write it
[06:27] <stmiller> superKaramba
[06:27] <n2diy> riotkittie: ok, and they are?
[06:27] <jimmygoon> nah, konfabulator was a windows thing that yahoo bought
[06:27] <grinch> hi all.   first of all .... xchat question .....            how do I open the user-list panel so I can see all u guys and gals who are in here??
[06:28] <pauliukas> jimmygoon, Konfabulator originally was for OS X.
[06:28] <jimmygoon> pauliukas, are you sure
[06:28] <pauliukas> Then, they made a Windows port. Then Yahoo bought them.
[06:28] <pauliukas> jimmygoon, 100% positive
[06:28] <daylighter> yes, it was
[06:28] <pauliukas> They had this comic strip of their history.
[06:28] <jimmygoon> just kidding :P
[06:28] <riotkittie> n2diy: wireless used to work fine - i was able to connect to my neighbor's unsecured network and then my secured and unsecured networks. now, i can't get an ip address, and nm-app says "no network devices have been found"
[06:28] <daylighter> it kinda lost its use when OSX Introduced dashboard
[06:29] <aleka> almost ashamed to ask, but is it possible to get vmware to use an existing operating system already on the box or would the OS have to be set up as a new install?
[06:29] <jimmygoon> you are right, it must have been OS X, then windows... and never linux :( and then Yahoo! :(
[06:29] <riotkittie> the card shows in lspci, and its there under ifconfig or iwconfig
[06:29] <n2diy> riotkittie: did this happen around 5/29?
[06:29] <Journeyman> jrib, any idea?
[06:29] <grinch> does anyone know how I can tell ubuntu to see my SD camera memory card slot ??
[06:29] <jimmygoon> aleka, I believe there is a process of using dd probably to make an image of it, and/or to get vmware to install onto an actual partition
[06:29] <Jordan_U> riotkittie, Is your wireless card set to "roaming" mode in System -> Administration -> Networking ?
[06:29] <jimmygoon> grinch, feisty?
[06:29] <daylighter> I wish there was some way we could get the necessary libraries arranged so we could more-or-less run OSX apps
[06:30] <jimmygoon> daylighter, heh, don't we all
[06:30] <riotkittie> n2diy: no, its actually been going on for a couple of months.  it didnt bother me enough to look into tho, because i was fine with being wired
[06:30] <daylighter> lol yes jimmygoon
[06:30] <grinch> jimmygoon, yeah, its fiesty fox
[06:30] <daylighter> darn you carbon, aqua, and all the cores!!!!!!!
[06:30] <jrib> Journeyman: hold on
[06:30] <grinch> couldnt do it in 6.10 either tho
[06:30] <daylighter> oh, and darwin
[06:30] <riotkittie> Jordan_U > uhm, i dont know. i'll check when i boot into ubuntu...
[06:30] <dr_willis> Hmm. Im trying to figure out in a directory with some files (who are accidently chmod +x'ed by  mistake) and some dirs. whats an easy way to  chmod -x the files, but not the dirs in that dir?
[06:31] <riotkittie> Jordan_U > should it be?
[06:31] <Journeyman> jrib, i fixed it
[06:31] <Journeyman> i used dpkg-reconfigure alacarte
[06:31] <jimmygoon> grinch, heh, feisty fawn eh? ... I have no idea how to make it show up, I just know my friend's shew up automagically... sorry I'm not more help
[06:31] <zcat[1] > dr_willis: find . -type f -exec chmod -x {} \;
[06:31] <jimmygoon> alacarte has options?
[06:31] <grinch> fawn eh :)  thanks anyway :))
[06:32] <Jordan_U> riotkittie, Yes, when it's in roaming mode it's controlled by network-manager, when it's not it is controlled by network-admin ( /etc/networking/interfaces )
[06:32] <n2diy> riotkittie: Ok, I'll stand by while you work with Jordan_U, no ideas here.
[06:32] <dr_willis> zcat[1] ,  been trying that. but then spaces withfile names break it..  (i think lets try)
[06:32] <zcat[1] > dr_willis: find . -type f -exec chmod -x "{}" \;
[06:32] <jrib> Journeyman: oops, checked the wrong thing... how about: ls /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/Alacarte/MainWindow.py
[06:32] <riotkittie> Jordan_U > ok, brb. i'm going to reboot and look at that
[06:32] <jrib> Journeyman: cheater, ok :)
[06:32] <zcat[1] > anyhow.. gotta do
[06:32] <zcat[1] > *go
[06:33] <dr_willis> hay that worked.. but thats identicl to what i was tryihng.. well almost..
[06:33] <dr_willis> heh
[06:33] <puzzle> hiiiii guysssssssssssss :D
[06:33] <elljay> anyone have any answers on how to get sound working with vmware-server in Feisty (running standard gnome install)
[06:33] <jimmygoon> elljay - install vmtools inside the VM?
[06:33] <elljay> it keeps saying /dev/dsp is busy
[06:33] <daylighter> I should delete windows and dual boot between Feisty and some other flavor of *nix, something exotic... maybe a BSD or HERD
[06:33] <elljay> jimmy; yeah, it's not the vm's problem, it's vmware-server itself
[06:34] <Jordan_U> daylighter, HERD is not even bootable, on anything :)
[06:34] <jimmygoon> elljay, oh, erm... turn off VLC? sorry I don't know...
[06:34] <daylighter> LOL really?
[06:34] <daylighter> I didnt know that
[06:34] <n2diy> daylighter: knoppix
[06:34] <daylighter> silly stallman
[06:34] <daylighter> I've played with knoppix
[06:34] <elljay> jimmy; ahh, so i cannot be running like amarok or anything
[06:34] <Jordan_U> daylighter, That's why we use Linux :)
[06:34] <jimmygoon> elljay, that would be my bet
[06:34] <elljay> jimmy; i'll give it a shot
[06:35] <jimmygoon> HERD... weren't those the point releases for feisty :P
[06:35] <elljay> lj@spamshack:/dev$ cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp
[06:35] <elljay> hahaa YIKES
[06:35] <n2diy> daylighter: puppy?
[06:35] <elljay> yes, dsp works once i shutdown amarok
[06:35] <elljay> thanks jimmy ;)
[06:35] <grinch> how do I open users-list in xchat ?
[06:36] <daylighter> you know, I emailed stallman, because he used to be a good friend of the Cheshire Catalyst, (a good friend of mine) and he practically yelled at me because I didnt say GNU/LInux... if I said GNU/Linux all the time, I might as well say I'm using XFREE86/GNOME/UBUNTU/GNU/LINUX
[06:36] <n2diy> grinch: click on the number of users.
[06:36] <daylighter> n2diy, is that a callsign?
[06:36] <n2diy> daylighter: rr
[06:36] <daylighter> <-- KI4GMB
[06:36] <Jordan_U> daylighter, Yeahh, RMS is like our version of Balmer :)
[06:37] <daylighter> lol
[06:37] <n2diy> daylighter: are you playing in the aqp?
[06:37] <daylighter> .... i dont copy
[06:37] <grinch> n2diy, ahhh thanks ..... it was hiding beyond the physical screen :)
[06:37] <PMantis> If I don't have a RAID, and never did on my single drive laptop, why does "update-initramfs" complain about the mdadm.conf file having no arrays defined??
[06:37] <n2diy> daylighter: are you playing in the aqp, Alabama QSO Party?
[06:37] <daylighter> nope
[06:38] <daylighter> the only equipment I have right now is a 2m handy
[06:38] <daylighter> I cant afford anything else
[06:38] <daylighter> and I'm only a tech
[06:38] <n2diy> grinch: glad you found it.
[06:38] <n2diy> daylighter: rr
[06:38] <pushpop`> Anyone off hand know of a socket 478 mobo that accepts ECC memory?
[06:39] <Baalia2> I am trying to run something thru Wine, but I can't because there is a space in the name
[06:39] <Baalia2> This is the command I am trying to put in "wine cortex command.exe
[06:39] <c0ldfront> cant you do like %12
[06:39] <daylighter> %20, isnt it?
[06:39] <c0ldfront> or however they type out spaces in windows:P
[06:39] <Baalia2> How can I go about telling the terminal that the file I am reaching isn't cortex.exe?
[06:39] <rollerskatejamms> What's similar to beagle that I can use with KDE
[06:39] <rollerskatejamms> ?
[06:39] <Jordan_U> Baalia2, You need to put a \ before the space
[06:39] <daylighter> James%20Dean
[06:40] <Baalia2> %12?
[06:40] <spasticteapot> Anyone know where I can download Feisty without any GUI?
[06:40] <c0ldfront> yeah its %20 thanks daylighter
[06:40] <rollerskatejamms> spasticteapot: you just get the alternate install
[06:40] <Baalia2> ooh
[06:40] <Baalia2> Thanks Jordan!
[06:40] <jimmygoon> spasticteapot, you mean without the live disc, or you mean to install it without X?
[06:40] <n2diy> ! alternate | spasticteapot
[06:40] <ubotu> spasticteapot: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[06:40] <daylighter> :)
[06:40] <n2diy> whoops, thought it was available for Feisty.
[06:40] <rollerskatejamms> !Minimal
[06:40] <ubotu> The Minimal CD image is very small in size, and it downloads most packages from the Internet during installation, allowing you to select only those you want (the installer is like the one on the !Alternate CD). See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/MinimalCD
[06:41] <c0ldfront> im sad
[06:41] <zram49> I'm trying to find a DVD driver for a Samsung SH-162c.  Any Ideas?
[06:41] <spasticteapot> Kickass!
[06:41] <c0ldfront> ive been sitting here for like 3 hours trying to compile the kernel i get close and it just takes me 4 steps back
[06:41] <spasticteapot> rollerskatejamms: I'll go find it.
[06:41] <PMantis> n2diy: It is...
[06:41] <drovleywheysky> i can put windows mac ubuntu
[06:41] <drovleywheysky> ?
[06:42] <drovleywheysky> same time
[06:42] <n2diy> PMantis: so somebody should tell ubotu?
[06:42] <Jordan_U> drovleywheysky, On a mac, yes.
[06:42] <drovleywheysky> ok
[06:42] <PMantis> n2diy: It said it was available "as of" Dapper, meaning "beginning with" Dapper, not "only for" Dapper. :)
[06:43] <n2diy> PMantis: hmm, ok, my bad.
[06:44] <daylighter> n2diy, how's the weather in PA
[06:45] <grinch> does feisty have a device manager? i cant seem to find it
[06:45] <n2diy> daylighter: warm, humid, but no T-storms, got hammered last night, had to shutdown.
[06:45] <daylighter> we had the 4+ inches of rain from the tropical storm
[06:45] <daylighter> but we need it SO BADLY
[06:45] <Jordan_U> grinch, Yes, System -> Administration -> devices
[06:45] <eric> grinch: system -> pref -> hardware info
[06:46] <n2diy> PMantis: Barry? I guess you are in FL?
[06:46] <Jordan_U> grinch, Err.... ignore what I said :)
[06:46] <grinch> aaahhhh
[06:46] <PMantis> Update-initramfs compains since an upgrade to 7.04: "W: mdadm: unchecked configuration file: /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf". Also, the new initrd won't boot my encrypted root filesystem... glad I saved a copy of my old initrd. Any help? (I'm amazed that nobody in the past 5 hours confirmed or denied a known issue, as I've asked repeatedly)
[06:46] <daylighter> I live right on the coast, in fact, if I travel across the body of water that I am facing, I hit nasa within 8 miles
[06:46] <eric> Jordan_U,: lol :)
[06:46] <n2diy> PMantis: ignore wrong nick.
[06:46] <daylighter> I watch, hear, and feel shuttle launches and landings from my back yard
[06:46] <PMantis> n2diy: What's Barry?
[06:46] <n2diy> daylighter:  Barry? I guess you are in FL?
[06:46] <grinch> Jordan_U, thats where it used to be :)    eric, thankyou :))
[06:47] <PMantis> n2diy: oh. :)

[06:47] <daylighter> yes, Titusville, right across the Lagoon from Cape Canaveral
[06:47] <daylighter> and I'm only 37 miles from orlando
[06:47] <poningru> PMantis: are you using software raid and truecrypt?
[06:47] <n2diy> PMantis: sorry things move fast here. :)
[06:47] <PMantis> poningru: No RAID, it's a laptop.
[06:48] <silvernode> Does anyone know of a better html editor besides bluefish?

[06:49] <silvernode> pmantis:tried nvu, is screem any good?
[06:49] <riotkittie> lolololol. omg. i have wireless.
[06:50] <n2diy> daylighter:  rr, spent a couple of weeks in Melbourne, working a Harris, saw a shuttle launce in 82-83, awesome.
[06:50] <poningru> PMantis: hmm
[06:50] <poningru> never used luks
[06:50] <daylighter> :) they're awesome until they land and jarr you out of bed at 3am by shaking your walls and windows and frightening every piece of wildlife for 100 miles
[06:50] <silvernode> pmantis:i want to be able to drag and drop stuff, I could type the code out but sometimes im too lazy or busy lol
[06:50] <h3xagram> hello, im having a problem with my display.. the laptop monitor is not showing a display, but the VGA connection is... how do I fix it so it will display on the monitor
[06:50] <h3xagram> I have an Intel IGC chipset for video
[06:51] <PMantis> silvernode: You'll have to decide... each behaves differently, has different features, but none that I know of are WYSIWYG
[06:51] <silvernode> pmantis:darn thanks anyway tho
[06:51] <daylighter> you could install Adobe Dreamweaver in wine, I dont know if it works or not
[06:52] <riotkittie> i cant believe the fix was so simple. the problem plagued me for months.
[06:52] <lenorekulakauska> i have just installed ubuntu on my desktop but can't get any sound from my speakers they are dell speakers system
[06:52] <eric> lenorekulakauska: sound drivers install correctly?
[06:52] <riotkittie> i just had to disable networking on nm-app and re-enable it. and bam, wireless.
[06:52] <lenorekulakauska> yes
[06:52] <Snurre_> u have to pay fot utorrent now... to hell with this matirial world!!
[06:53] <PMantis> poningru: it uses /etc/crypttab, cryptsetup, dm_crypt, aes ... I call it LUKS,  ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/EncryptedFilesystemHowto6 )
[06:53] <riotkittie> lenorekulakauska: are the speakers on? is the volume muted?
[06:53] <n2diy> daylighter:  rr, haven't caught a landing yet, that would be cool too, someday.
[06:53] <eric> riotkittie: i didn't want to ask that :X
[06:53] <eric> lol
[06:53] <silvernode> what do you guys think of AMD athlon xp 2500 and ATI 9600? Thats what i got from 2004 and it fails to not freeze WoW up in cedega. WoW gets past the loading screen and graphics are fine but without the restricted driver it wont work but with the driver it still freezes ubuntu
[06:53] <jimmygoon> Snurre_ no you don't.
[06:53] <h3xagram> hello, im having a problem with my display.. the laptop monitor is not showing a display, but the VGA connection is... how do I fix it so it will display on the monitor
[06:53] <Baalia2> Does anyone know how to play Cortex Command via Wine?
[06:53] <h3xagram> I have an Intel IGC chipset for video
[06:53] <jimmygoon> http://www.utorrent.com/download.php look at the second line on the page... "Download now! Its free!"
[06:53] <riotkittie> eric:  i hate asking it too but ... a lot of time, from what i have seen in here, thats where the problem lies
[06:53] <daylighter> n2diy,  you cant really see them, but the twin sonic booms will make nearly make your ears bleed and scare the FSCK out of you if you arent expecting it
[06:54] <eric> riotkittie: for sure :)
[06:54] <n2diy> daylighter:  rr,
[06:55] <poningru> hmm
[06:55] <Baalia2> Does anyone know how to play Cortex Command via Wine?
[06:55] <PMantis> h3xagram: Sounds like a function of the laptop iteslf... try a function - F4 combination (look at the symbold silkscreened on the keyboards, look for display symbol)
[06:56] <silvernode> lol i never realized utorrent says it's for wine
[06:56] <n2diy> daylighter:  any significance to your nick? Chopper pilot?
[06:56] <riotkittie> oh this is awesome! i'm so happy to be back in ubuntu. i was stuck in windows for two days. my laptop felt so useless.
[06:56] <silvernode> thats funny
[06:56] <daylighter> lol no, it was something I picked when I was 13, when I first started using IRC
[06:56] <PMantis> poningru: Dod you have an encrypted root?
[06:56] <daylighter> 7 years ago
[06:56] <lockd> silvernode: seriously? or just says it's running in wine?
[06:56] <PMantis> poningru: Sorry, major typos typing in the dark. lol
[06:56] <poningru> PMantis: only on my work and server boxen
[06:57] <PMantis> poningru: Either of them running Feisty?
[06:57] <poningru> hehe nope
[06:57] <poningru> I wished
[06:57] <poningru> rhel
[06:57] <n2diy> daylighter:  Roger that, thought maybe you flew a bird with a spot light.
[06:57] <grinch> MMC/SD Host Adaptor (part of my 5in1 multomedia card reader .... sees my SD card (digitalcamera) as an Unknown card. anyone know how to adress this ?
[06:58] <PMantis> poningru: Oh well... looking to compare a couple foles with someone... seeme the method for an encrypted root keeps changing with releases.
[06:58] <silvernode> lockd: Says for wine, windows 95 (winstock2), 98/me, NT/200, xp and above
[06:58] <n2diy> grinch: does it see the pictures on the card?
[06:58] <Fathefner> how do i find what video card i have
[06:59] <n2diy> Fathefner: lshw
[07:00] <grinch> n2diy, no ...  hardware information sees that there's 'something' in the slot, but no, it cant see the pictures
[07:00] <daylighter> n2diy,  I wish! I have friend's with pilots licenses, I wish I did
[07:00] <Bogaurd|Work> are scripts in /etc/network/if-up.d run on PPP interfaces coming up too?
[07:00] <n2diy> Fathefner: ok, have you googled for a module/driver for the camera? That would help.
[07:01] <Fathefner> i got it
[07:01] <Fathefner> i juast need model
[07:01] <Lounged> does irc.ubuntu.com support ssl and if so what port?
[07:02] <GenNMX> Anyone around with mdadm experience? I'm trying to make a raid1 of sd[ab] , which has 9 partitions, where sd[ab] 2 is logical, and sd[ab] 3-7 are part of that logical ext.
[07:02] <lockd> silvernode: remember you can always use ktorrent if you don't want to run virtualization
[07:02] <n2diy> daylighter:  Well, be careful what you wish for. A friend of mine had a license, and a plane, he leased to rental company, and one day the plane never came home. Google on N2949Q for the story.
[07:02] <daylighter> oh god
[07:03] <silvernode> lockd:ktorrent any good or the same as utorrent?
[07:03] <n2diy> daylighter:  Yep, may they rest in peace.
[07:03] <lockd> silvernode: very similar
[07:03] <adnan> hi
[07:03] <adnan> I am back
[07:03] <lockd> silvernode: at least in interface and network user-friendliness
[07:03] <adnan> I have a quick question
[07:04] <adnan> I am sure most of you have an answer
[07:04] <silvernode> lockd:nice thanks im downloading now
[07:04] <livingdaylight> quick question: what is the command to find out what kernel version i have?
[07:04] <daylighter> oooooh
[07:04] <adnan> I am not trying to do a traceroute
[07:04] <daylighter> instrument landings are tough, poor people
[07:04] <adnan> would it be possible for me to do a traceroute
[07:04] <Jordan_U> livingdaylight, uname -a
[07:04] <silvernode> lockd:heh seems the download servers are down atm
[07:04] <livingdaylight> thx
[07:05] <adnan> from someone others machine from my location
[07:05] <adnan> without remotely connecting to that station
[07:05] <alexnick> I get this error in Synaptic: 'E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. E: _cache->open() failed, please report.'
[07:05] <adnan> anyone
[07:06] <adnan> traceroute
[07:06] <Jordan_U> alexnick, run: sudo dpkg --configure -a
[07:06] <adnan> help
[07:06] <madman91> hello
[07:06] <adnan> is it possible to see someone elses traceroute
[07:06] <madman91> how can i access .hlp files.. i googled it.. but it led to me not much results
[07:06] <adnan> by performing it from my machine
[07:07] <adnan> who can help
[07:07] <adnan> me
[07:07] <alexnick> Thanks, let me give it a shot.
[07:07] <Jordan_U> adnan, I am pretty sure that isn't possible
[07:07] <adnan> I am too
[07:07] <adnan> but I was till wondering
[07:07] <adnan> they would basically have to perform the trace and let me know
[07:07] <zarul> ,
[07:07] <adnan> of the situation
[07:08] <alexnick> Is that it, am I done?
[07:08] <adnan> what the route is
[07:08] <adnan> right Jordan_U
[07:08] <Jordan_U> adnan, Yes.
[07:08] <adnan> I know I can do it if I remotely connect to their station
[07:08] <adnan> but I won't do it
[07:09] <adnan> Ill let them know to give me the trace
[07:09] <daylighter> is there any way for me to group windows, like Gimp, so I dont have a seperate window in my task list for every panel?
[07:09] <Lounge> sup
[07:10] <Fathefner> where do i get a .deb for an ATI driver
[07:10] <Jordan_U> daylighter, Yes
[07:10] <daylighter> how would I go about doing that
[07:10] <sivik> did they ever get an ati driver for ubuntu that works with the xpress 200m video cards
[07:11] <Jordan_U> daylighter, Right click the window grouping applet and check the "always group windows" option
[07:11] <dr_willis> sivik,  it works with mine.. but under feisty it seems tocrash more thenunder dapper.
[07:11] <daylighter> window grouping applet?
[07:11] <dr_willis> sivik,  imback to usingthenormal  ati driver for now.
[07:12] <Jordan_U> daylighter, The divider to the left of where the window titles are displayed in the panel
[07:12] <lockd> is there a way to put say, Gimp in a virtual root? without all the mess of configuring Xnest?
[07:12] <sivik> dr_willis, well, i had it working edgy but i was using a script to get it to work and now the script won't work in fiesty
[07:12] <daylighter> Jordan_U, I have everything organized the way I want, is it an applet I can add to the panel?
[07:13] <Jordan_U> daylighter, It's already there, it's the applet that displays the windows in the panel
[07:13] <dr_willis> sivik,  a script that did what exactly?
[07:13] <daylighter> oh no
[07:13] <daylighter> I dont want group EVERYTHING
[07:13] <tondar> hey al
[07:13] <tondar> l
[07:13] <daylighter> only certain programs
[07:13] <daylighter> like gimp
[07:14] <daylighter> I had that turned on
[07:14] <tondar> how could I force the weather report screenlet to grab a report outside the US?
[07:14] <sivik> dr_willis, created the deb packages, installed the packages needed for the drivers, and then updated the xorg.conf file so it would work with my card correctly
[07:14] <daylighter> and found it too annoying to click through a menu to select a firefox window
[07:14] <Jordan_U> daylighter, Exactly, just try it, right click the divider, second "icon" from the bottom left on a default setup
[07:14] <Jordan_U> daylighter, and go to preferences
[07:15] <daylighter> you're saying to go to preferences, yeah, I had that turned on
[07:15] <Fathefner> where do i get a .deb for an ATI driver
[07:15] <tondar> how could I force the weather report screenlet to grab a report outside the US?
[07:15] <Jordan_U> Fathefner, Why not just use the Restricted Driver Manager ?
[07:15] <daylighter> but I dont want it to group everything just because it has many windows, I just wanted things like gimp to open all the panels with one click, instead of clicking all the panels and stuff individually... I hate how it groups other things...
[07:15] <daylighter> hmm
[07:16] <daylighter> I wish they'd just program that into gimp
[07:16] <daylighter> everything in one window
[07:16] <dr_willis> daylighter,  put it on its own desktop all by itself.
[07:16] <daylighter> that's true
[07:16] <dr_willis> daylighter,  theres people that perfer it the other way as well. :)
[07:16] <daylighter> options dialogues!
[07:16] <bastid_raZor> you all should get VMware if you want to run windows
[07:16] <Jordan_U> daylighter, Ahh, I don't know how to do that in gnome, but I know it's possible in beryl
[07:16] <lockd> unfortunately that would take too much space, or so they say, in the options dialogs
[07:17] <dr_willis> gimp has merged a lot of its little windows into  bigger ones imn recent years also.
[07:17] <daylighter> I know it's possible in beryl, but I've not figured out how to use it
[07:17] <daylighter> I use beryl/emerald
[07:17] <bastid_raZor> i just set up VMware and now have Ubuntu AND windows 2000 running at the same time
[07:17] <wersdaluv> is xfwm's compositor enough for me to run AWM?
[07:17] <sivik> bastid_raZor, i have done that before, but i was running windows server 2003
[07:17] <crdlb> wersdaluv, yes
[07:17] <rollerskatejamms> hi
[07:17] <wersdaluv> thanks :)
[07:17] <Jordan_U> !hi | rollerskatejamms
[07:17] <ubotu> rollerskatejamms: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[07:17] <bastid_raZor> actually, i'm planning on installing 2k3 server tomorrow
[07:17] <tondar> anyone ?? please help me
[07:17] <tondar> :(
[07:18] <dr_willis> !ask
[07:18] <ubotu> Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[07:18] <spasticteapot> With the Ubuntu LiveCD, can I install Ubuntu without Gnome?
[07:18] <n2diy> daylighter:  http://www.othiekan.com/ is a dead link on QRZ.
[07:18] <daylighter> yeah, it's old
[07:18] <Jordan_U> spasticteapot, No, but you can easily remove Gnome, or install with the alternate install CD
[07:18] <DaveMelb> hello all - I cannot mount and CD or DVD in my drive - error msg is : cannot mount vuolume - mount: block device /dev/scd0 is write protected?
[07:18] <daylighter> i havent been that active in ham for a while
[07:18] <daylighter> try http://www.jamesdean.name/blog n2diy
[07:18] <spasticteapot> What's the easiest way to remove all GNOME components from the PC?
[07:18] <daylighter> someone broke the server I was hosted on and I lost all my data
[07:19] <spasticteapot> I want to install XFCE from scratch. Not Xubuntu.
[07:19] <n2diy> daylighter:  rr the new link.
[07:19] <bastid_raZor> plus xp-pro
[07:19] <bastid_raZor> just to have all the bases covered
[07:19] <spasticteapot> Jordan_U: How do I remove Gnome?
[07:19] <dr_willis> I never remove anything. :)
[07:19] <n2diy> daylighter:  jamesdean!! Ok!!
[07:19] <lockd> is there anything at all like a dynamically resizable Xephyr/Xnest root?
[07:19] <ivan> anyone here own the HP DV6000t?
[07:19] <bastid_raZor> apt-get remove ubuntu-desktop ??
[07:19] <daylighter> lol!
[07:19] <daylighter> n2diy, told you i had a goofy name
[07:20] <dr_willis>  ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage - removeing it wont do much
[07:20] <Jordan_U> spasticteapot, look at the dependencies of Ubuntu-desktop and remove them, you could also ask someone in #kubuntu what dependencies apt tries to install when they apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and apt-get remove them
[07:20] <Fathefner> Jordan_u it not there
[07:20] <n2diy> daylighter:  jamesdean, that is your name, and a fake one!?
[07:20] <Jordan_U> Fathefner, What's not where? :)
[07:20] <n2diy> *not a fake one.
[07:20] <daylighter> James Dean is my full name
[07:20] <aleka> trying out vmware server with different ISO images I have on my ubuntu... and when I "power it on", it chugs for about 5 seconds and goes back to the console screen
[07:20] <daylighter> James David Dean, actually
[07:21] <Fathefner> Jordan_u im the restricted drives its not htere
[07:21] <aleka> started vmware from the terminal.. but no debugging info there
[07:21] <klobster> daylighter: rock on
[07:21] <daylighter> lol
[07:21] <lockd> aleka: I have tried VMWare, and get similar errors.. but it's from the guest OS
[07:21] <daylighter> n2diy, you have the same name as my uncle
[07:21] <n2diy> daylighter: nothing goofy about that. Do you sell autographes? :)
[07:21] <bastid_raZor> aleka: you have the cdrom set to run from the iso?
[07:22] <daylighter> hahaha, I should, shouldnt I?
[07:22] <Jordan_U> Fathefner, Ok, then install them via synaptic / apt, here is a guide:
[07:22] <aleka> bastid_raZor:  yeah
[07:22] <Jordan_U> !ati | Fathefner
[07:22] <ubotu> Fathefner: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[07:22] <daylighter> Sabdfl, you converted a rock star! James Dean runs ubuntu!
[07:22] <n2diy> daylighter: now how could I have the same name as your uncle!?
[07:22] <aleka> tried xubuntu, knopix and debian isos... all failed
[07:22] <daylighter> same first name
[07:22] <bastid_raZor> aleka: before this last week vmware wouldn't work at all for me. but it was my hardware. new MB works fine now
[07:23] <daylighter> Darryl
[07:23] <spasticteapot> http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/purexfce
[07:23] <spasticteapot> Can I use the "Aptitude" method, or do I have to do it the long way?
[07:23] <bastid_raZor> aleka: i know that isn't an answer but it is how i solved many of my issues with ubuntu
[07:23] <n2diy> daylighter: ok, same first name, does he know how to spell it!?
[07:23] <cweagans> does anyone here know of a good C++ IDE for ubuntu?
[07:23] <daylighter> he spells it the same way
[07:23] <aleka> bastid_raZor:  and MB here stand for...
[07:23] <lockd> cweagans: anjuta
[07:23] <bastid_raZor> aleka: motherboard
[07:23] <n2diy> daylighter: good, we both had some schoolin then.
[07:24] <aleka> heh...
[07:24] <daylighter> lol
[07:24] <daylighter> yes, I hate messed up names, too
[07:24] <DaveMelb> can anyone help me with mounting CD/DVD disks ?
[07:24] <bastid_raZor> aleka: my computer was OLD, i finally broke down and bought new MB, processor and RAM
[07:24] <daylighter> n2diy, my mom's name is "messed up" Tonia, when it should be Tonya or Tanya or something
[07:24] <cweagans> lockd: can just get that by doing "sudo apt-get install anjuta"?
[07:24] <lockd> cweagans: yes, but you will likely also want a GUI designer
[07:24] <Jordan_U> spasticteapot, You have to do it "the long way" but it's just copy/paste so it isn't really any longer to do :)
[07:25] <lockd> cweagans: fluid, which pulls in fltk, is nice - but can be a tricky API to learn
[07:25] <aleka> oh well... just wanted to give it a try... thought it would be a nice thing.. since I can not dual boot anymore... thnx to my PS/2 port being damaged on my tower...
[07:25] <n2diy> daylighter: How many ways can you mess up Darryl!!! Don' start me!
[07:25] <spasticteapot> I need to dig out my linux-capable wireless card, methinks.
[07:25] <daylighter> I met someone named Derille
[07:25] <cweagans> lockd: I am still learning C++...any suggestions on a simple API?
[07:25] <daylighter> that was the worst I've seen
[07:25] <aleka> can't even get into the BIOS to configure it for legacy USb support....
[07:25] <cweagans> for guis, that is
[07:25] <bastid_raZor> ouch
[07:25] <n2diy> daylighter: Roger on Tonea.
[07:25] <daylighter> Tonia
[07:25] <bastid_raZor> buy a new case.. only 35$ or so
[07:26] <n2diy> daylighter: I thought we were messing things up?
[07:26] <lockd> cweagans: FLTK, if you want C++ and not C
[07:26] <daylighter> haha n2diy
[07:26] <cweagans> lockd: for a GUI designer? or for an IDE?
[07:26] <daylighter> I should order an ubuntu badge for the front of my pc
[07:26] <aleka> yeah... I guess.. if I really wanted to boot into windows... I would have to change my defaults in Grub... but it hasn't gotten to that stage yet... tried a "grub -reboot" command once.. to give it a "one-time" argument... which ended up messing up my whole install....
[07:27] <lockd> cweagans: for an IDE.. Anjuta or Eclips.. for a GUI designer, fluid
[07:27] <bastid_raZor> aleka: use the live cd to redo your grub/master boot record
[07:27] <aleka> bastid_raZor:  went to a local pc hw shop.. and the guy there was telling me I needed a new MB since the PS/2 port was on the mother board
[07:27] <cweagans> lockd: thank you! that helps a lot
[07:27] <lockd> cweagans: and for a graphics toolkit, fltk - or sdl if you are either suicidal or writing a game
[07:28] <Gnea> aleka: manpages tend to be better than assuming commands.
[07:28] <bastid_raZor> aleka: ahh.. that'll do it.. go to portatech.com super cheap and great quality
[07:28] <aleka> bastid_raZor:  yeah i know... it just  hasn't gotten to a pt where I really need windows yet... been with ubuntu for a while now and am fine..
[07:28] <cweagans> lockd: apt-get can't find fltk in any of the repositories
[07:28] <n2diy> daylighter: I wish I could still order ten Ubuntu CD's from shipit.com, but it is now down to one or two.
[07:28] <bastid_raZor> aleka: i spent 250$ now i have Pentium D 2x 3.0GHrz 1G DDR2
[07:29] <daylighter> yeah, I found that out when I got 3 in the mail, I like having 10+ so I can hand them out
[07:29] <bastid_raZor> aleka: if you don't understand that.. that is a decent set up for a cheap price
[07:29] <cweagans> lockd: it can't find sdl either
[07:29] <lockd> cweagans: just install fluid
[07:29] <bullgard4> What is the standard way to print the contents of a DVD on my screen?
[07:29] <aleka> pretty cool
[07:30] <aleka> my dell is abt 3 yrs old now.. will wait till it breaks down..
[07:30] <daylighter> I'm a poor college student
[07:30] <cweagans> lockd: i did, but I would like a graphics api to play around with...I would eventually like to write a game (rather, the rendering portion of a game)
[07:30] <aleka> anyways... thanks for taking interest in my problem and offering your suggestions :)
[07:30] <daylighter> my 1.8ghz P4 will have to wait until I get a grant and can afford something else
[07:30] <n2diy> daylighter: exactly, folks around here don't have a lot money to spend.
[07:31] <daylighter> i would love to get a mac and dual boot OSX/Ubuntu
[07:31] <n2diy> daylighter: why? What do you get with a Mac?
[07:31] <cweagans> daylighter: not much experience with macs here, but my one experience with installing ubuntu on a mac turned me away from it forever.....everything just ran really slow
[07:31] <daylighter> did it?
[07:31] <daylighter> wow
[07:31] <lasking>  guipygtk
[07:31] <daylighter> I love the new intel macs
[07:32] <daylighter> OSX is blazing
[07:32] <lockd> cweagans: libfltk1.1-dev, libsdl-dev
[07:32] <n2diy> daylighter: soo, they can catch a virus faster?
[07:32] <cweagans> lockd: awesome....thank you much
[07:32] <wastedfluid> hey guys; I have a bash script, that points to 'up' - any way around this?  Anyway to add a shortcut or something?
[07:32] <daylighter> haha
[07:33] <daylighter> I've never had any problem like that with OS X
[07:34] <n2diy> daylighter: RR, I don't think you will either, my mind played games with me, I saw Intel, and though M$.
[07:34] <lockd> !ch | lasking
[07:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about ch - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:34] <daylighter> lol yeah, thank god they're not shipping windows on macs, I'd have to drive to california and yell at steve jobs
[07:35] <n2diy> daylighter: Linus tried that.
[07:35] <daylighter> my friend (Cheshire Catalyst ((N4scy)) is friends with woz, he could yell at woz, who would then yell at jobs
[07:35] <andymeows> why doesn't Dell sell computers with Ubuntu and windows
[07:35] <andymeows> dual booted
[07:36] <daylighter> most consumers have no need/understanding of dual booting
[07:36] <daylighter> they'd think it was a pain in the arse
[07:36] <cweagans> buy a dell with windows and install ubuntu yourself...
[07:36] <mneptok> andymeows: my guess (and it's only a guess) is MS licensing
[07:36] <cinvoke> can someone help with soundcard issue?
[07:36] <mohsin> can any one tell me
[07:36] <durpa> boycott microsoft
[07:36] <mohsin>  how to unzip a zip file with *
[07:37] <amattas> How come there is no wheel group in ubuntu???
[07:37] <mohsin> *.rar extension
[07:37] <mohsin> ?
[07:37] <Valucolso> anyone know of a good way/program to stream video (podcast) from Ubuntu?
[07:37] <cweagans> mohsin: what do you mean?
[07:37] <noiesmo> Valucolso, icecast
[07:37] <Valucolso> thanks
[07:37] <mohsin> i have a compress file with rar extension
[07:37] <cweagans> mohsin: oh
[07:37] <mohsin> i want to uncompress it
[07:37] <lockd> amattas: root login is disabled, don't know if that answers your question
[07:37] <mohsin> yeah
[07:37] <noiesmo> !rar
[07:37] <ubotu> 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
[07:37] <cweagans> mohsin: use 7zip
[07:38] <wastedfluid> hey guys; I have a bash script, that points to 'up' - any way around this?  Anyway to add a shortcut or something?
[07:38] <n2diy> daylighter: ah yes, I believe the full name is Wosniak? Linus didn't enjoy is visit to
[07:38] <mohsin> and
[07:38] <lockd> amattas: you do not need to be in wheel to sudo
[07:38] <logmein> anyone know of a method to stream videos from your linux box to cellphone?
[07:38] <mohsin> what abt its securities
[07:38] <wersdaluv> why is that, whenever I select a window using AWN, the Window gets inactive immediately?
[07:38] <mohsin> a file is encrypted with a password
[07:38] <n2diy> *to Apple.
[07:38] <mohsin> and i forgot the password
[07:38] <amattas> what group is sudo set up for?
[07:38] <daylighter> Steve Wozniak
[07:39] <logmein> amattas: hmm for any that knows the root pass I guess
[07:39] <tritium> amattas: admin
[07:39] <cweagans> mohsin: haha....good luck. There are cracking utils out there....you are going to have to search them out a figure out how to use them. Not sure how the passwords are set up for .rars, but I'm assuming that they are not cleartext.
[07:39] <n2diy> daylighter:  Wosniak, I spelled it right!
[07:39] <tritium> logmein: no, sudo uses the users' own passwords.  They must be in the admin group
[07:39] <amattas> hmm weird... wheel > admin imo :-)
[07:39] <cweagans> Wozniak
[07:39] <mohsin> ahan
[07:39] <DaveMelb_> hello all can anyone pls help me with a CD mount error message
[07:39] <logmein> tritium: oh yeah forgot which channel I was on

[07:40] <lasking> make[1] : *** [gtkunixprint_la-gtkunixprintmodule.lo]  Error 1
[07:40] <lasking> how to resolve it?
[07:40] <tritium> logmein: :)
[07:40] <amattas> I've been a long time gentoo and slackware user, I'm putting ubuntu on my girlfriends laptop for the sake of simplicity, but I can't find what I'm used to finding :-p
[07:40] <daylighter> n2diy, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Wozniak
[07:41] <cweagans> amattas: what do you need to find?
[07:41] <n2diy> daylighter: OM, it is time for bed! Why would I want to read about MACs anyway?  My VIC 20 still works!
[07:41] <amattas> I can find the graphical equivilant, but a lot of things that I'm used to customizing drive me nuts, like experimental packages and such like that
[07:41] <amattas> make its better she uses stable anyways
[07:41] <daylighter> lol, N4SCY has a TRS-80 "laptop" that he edits HTML on
[07:41] <amattas> hmp
[07:42] <DaveMelb_> am  I in the wrong room? is this general ubuntu help ?
[07:42] <n2diy> daylighter: How does he upload them?
[07:43] <daylighter> he uses RS-232 to whatever he's got lying around and uses an FTP From there
[07:43] <tritium> DaveMelb_: yes, this is #ubuntu
[07:43] <jimmygoon> DaveMelb_, you are in the right palce
[07:43] <DaveMelb_> ok thanks can someone help me with mounting CDs
[07:43] <cweagans> daylighter: are you an amateur radio op too?
[07:43] <cinvoke> DaveMelb_: I think questions get lost in the chat
[07:43] <Hillview> DaveMelb_, what's the error?
[07:43] <DaveMelb_> error msg is device /dev/scd0 is write protected
[07:44] <daylighter> cweagans, yes
[07:44] <cinvoke> I have also been asking for help.  I can't find the driver for my soundcard.
[07:44] <tritium> DaveMelb_: there's a lot of offtopic chat going on here that belongs in #ubuntu-offtopic (e.g., amateur radio...)
[07:44] <n2diy> daylighter: How fast is  a comm port on a trash 80?
[07:44] <cweagans> daylighter: cool...KI4KLW
[07:45] <Mitch-H> Hi all :)
[07:45] <tritium> n2diy: please stay on topic, or take your chat to #ubuntu-offtopic
[07:45] <jimmygoon> Can I run drmdbg or fairuse4wm under ubuntu?
[07:45] <Mitch-H> Just a quick question (hopefully) - I installed Ubuntu with no errors, but when I start up the computer it says "GRUB" and just beeps like crazy
[07:45] <Mitch-H> Any ideas?
[07:46] <n2diy> tritium: 10-4
[07:46] <Mitch-H> I know Grub is a bootloader, but.. hmm
[07:46] <oomgits> quick question
[07:46] <Hillview> DaveMelb_, is it just the one disc that gives you the error, or do you get the same with any disc?
[07:46] <DaveMelb_> all disks
[07:46] <oomgits> If I compile a file in ubuntu 6.06 will it work in ubuntu 7?
[07:47] <DaveMelb_> and I just installed from that DVD drive
[07:47] <cweagans> can we use this room for only ubuntu related questions? or can we ask about ubuntu software too  ex: Anjuta?
[07:47] <n2diy> daylighter: take care OM, 73
[07:47] <tritium> cweagans: software too
[07:47] <cweagans> kk...thx
[07:48] <cinvoke> is there perhaps another room i can ask for general soundcard help??
[07:48] <daylighter> ttyl n2diy
[07:48] <Pavelish> anyone know? if I compile things in Ubuntu 6.06 will it work under Ubuntu 7? Or do I need to compile it in Ubuntu 7
[07:48] <Hobbsee> Pavelish: the latter
[07:48] <Pavelish> gey
[07:48] <Pavelish> thx
[07:48] <zarul> it depends on what you're compiling
[07:49] <Pavelish> um. Ogre 3D, Raknet
[07:49] <DeafByBeheading> hi, i'm having this problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/postgresql-8.2/+bug/108296/+viewstatus . can anyone suggest how to get back the default /etc/postgresql directory?
[07:49] <daylighter> cweagans, you got your license after me, since I'm KI4GMB and you're KI4KLW
[07:49] <Pavelish> and they loose backward compatibility after each version?
[07:50] <cweagans> I just installed Anjuta. When I try to build an executable in Anjuta, it gives me an error that says "sh: g++: not found", though I know for a fact that it is installed

[07:52] <cweagans> aabrahao: for the modules, use a2enmod *module name*
[07:52] <Bourn3> i upgraded my system from edgy eft to feisty fawn
[07:52] <DaveMelb_> anybody seen this error when mounting any CD - error msg is device /dev/scd0 is write protected

[07:52] <cweagans> daylighter: how old are you?
[07:52] <daylighter> 20
[07:52] <Bourn3> there are a lot of packages which were installed on edgy eft which don't work on feisty fawn
[07:53] <cweagans> ah
[07:53] <Bourn3> how can this be done?
[07:53] <cweagans> how do you do private chat on irc
[07:53] <tritium> cweagans: /query <nick>
 nice! And how Can I know the php module name?
[07:53] <cinvoke> should i just keep asking the same question until someone answers, or is there another room i can go to?
[07:53] <tritium> !repeat | cinvoke
[07:53] <ubotu> cinvoke: 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
[07:54] <cweagans> aabrahao: it will usually be php5-*module name*

[07:57] <cweagans> and how do you register?
[07:57] <crdlb> !register | cweagans
[07:57] <ubotu> cweagans: Information about registering your Freenode nick is at http://freenode.net/faq.shtml#contents-userregistration
[07:58] <daylighter> cweagans, /nickserv register ____ password email
[07:58] <daylighter> oops, sorry about the ____
[07:59] <cweagans> !register|cweagans
[07:59] <daylighter> cweagans, type /nickserv (password of choice) (email of choice)
[07:59] <daylighter> then, when you want to register it every time you come online type /nickserv identify (password)
[08:00] <cweagans> so can i just use /msg?
[08:00] <axe-man> !alsa
[08:00] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[08:12] <darwin81> What is a good system rescue cd?
[08:12] <cweagans> darwin81: ubuntu install disc

[08:13] <BleepBloop> Hi, I was wondering if anyone has experience with creating a bootable external hard drive with the contents of the livecd? (My computer lacks a CD Drive)
[08:13] <gabbarinho> I did it by entering commands in the terminal - now, I think it's installed, but there isn't a shortcut that I can see
[08:14] <cinvoke> how do i find out what driver a device is using?
[08:14] <cweagans> aabrahao: you are going to have to change the php conf file. hold on a sec
[08:14] <mneptok> darwin81: http://www.sysresccd.org/Main_Page
[08:14] <demonspork> What am I supposed to do with a DiSHON movie??
[08:15] <j1mc> cinvoke: what kind of device is it?
[08:15] <j1mc> cinvoke: a video card, network card?
[08:15] <drovleywheysky> here?
[08:15] <gabbarinho> what is the difference between rpm and srpm?
[08:15] <kadaz> I want to install custom cursors with X cursor, what themes do they support?
[08:16] <cinvoke> j1mc: a sound card
[08:17] <j1mc> cinvoke: ok.  give me a second and see what i can find.
[08:17] <LightCatcher> Does anyone know why my sound would stop working all of a sudden?
[08:17] <LightCatcher> No error messages, just silence.
[08:18] <kadaz> lightcatcher is it plugged in?
[08:18] <crimsun> LightCatcher: pastebin the output from `cat /proc/asound/cards && amixer'
[08:18] <LightCatcher> Yeah I tested my speakers just now
[08:18] <LightCatcher> And the connections.
[08:18] <LightCatcher> They were the same as they were when they were working.
[08:18] <LightCatcher> I even changed the wire to make sure that it was ok.
[08:18] <Paw> Might it be muted by mistake?
[08:19] <LightCatcher> That's possible.
[08:19] <LightCatcher> How do I unmute?
[08:19] <LightCatcher> !pastebin
[08:19] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[08:19] <silvernode> Is anyone familiar with planeshift? It's weird I can't get the ingame audio to work but when im making my character and stuff i can hear music...
[08:19] <Akuma_> LightCatcher: it happened to me just yesterday ... i unmuted everything i could and one of them worked
[08:19] <silvernode> im using fiesty
[08:20] <kadaz> lightcatcher and it worked?
[08:20] <LightCatcher> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23837/
[08:20] <gabbarinho> are rpm/srpm packages the right kind for ubuntu?
[08:20] <crimsun> your PCM is muted.
[08:20] <silvernode> pdm is not mucted
[08:20] <silvernode> pcm*
[08:20] <crimsun> yes it is
[08:20] <LightCatcher> How do I unmute it?
[08:20] <gabbarinho> i've downloaded a few and i'm told that the file type is not supported
[08:21] <Akuma_> LightCatcher: right click on the audio icon in the tray and go to preferences
[08:21] <j1mc> cinvoke: not sure, but this may be able to help you: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting
[08:21] <LightCatcher> I don't see any audio icons in the tray.
[08:21] <LightCatcher> That's funny, because I thought I remembered seeing them before.
[08:21] <Akuma_> LightCatcher: actually, volume control instead, then edit > preferences
[08:22] <crimsun> cinvoke: What's the output from `cat /proc/asound/modules'?  Use pastebin.
[08:22] <silvernode> So i can hear music in the loading of planeshift but i can't hear battle sounds and music in-game
[08:22] <kadaz> Iam trying to "edit at root" within a third party file manager, would this command work? /usr/bin/x-terminal-emulator -R +rw %aCurrent%
[08:22] <Akuma_> LightCatcher: i had the exact same problem as you yesterday just after i removed the icon actually ... seems like a bug
[08:22] <cweagans> aabrahao: change the extension of that file to .php
[08:22] <Akuma_> LightCatcher: right click on the panel and add the icon
[08:23] <j1mc> crimsun: thanks
 what file?
[08:23] <j1mc> thanks for following up with cinvoke
[08:23] <LightCatcher> I can't find the volume control program
[08:23] <cweagans> aabrahao: the php file that you are trying to execute
[08:23] <GenNMX> How do I safely copy over all data from my main partitions to my new RAID1 volumes?
[08:23] <LightCatcher> When I rightclicked and picked add icon
[08:24] <kadaz> whatever happened to open permissions and secure firewalls
[08:24] <Akuma_> LightCatcher: its under system & hardware
[08:24] <Akuma_> LightCatcher: called Volume Control
[08:24] <cinvoke> crimsun:  http://paste.debian.net/29503
[08:24] <LightCatcher> Ahh there we go, I found it.
[08:24] <LightCatcher> Thank you

[08:24] <cinvoke> j1mc:  thanks for help
[08:25] <LightCatcher> My PCM WAS muted, I wonder how that could have happened.
[08:25] <crimsun> cinvoke: that's the name of your driver.
[08:25] <kadaz> Now I cant even edit my own OS. Its like locking ever door in my house? doesnt make sense
[08:25] <Akuma_> LightCatcher: seems like a bug to me. happened once in edgy too...
[08:25] <tritium> kadaz: you can't use sudo?
[08:25] <theshadow> where can I find a tutorial on partitioning and formating a newly added hard drive to an existing install?
[08:26] <LightCatcher> I did recently upgrade to feisty, although it was working right after I updated.
[08:26] <cinvoke> crimsun:  well im not sure what to do.  My sound isnt working, its not muted. ??
[08:27] <cweagans> aabrahao: can you create a file called test.php and add this line to it: <PHP phpinfo() ?>
[08:27] <crimsun> cinvoke: pastebin `amixer' output

[08:28] <kandinski> hi, I have a problem with a production system I am supposed to update with some content: it is a PC booting Ubuntu from a USB-disk. I have plugged the USB disk in my own ubuntu laptop, and it shows up as read-only. How can I fix this?
[08:29] <cinvoke> crimsun:http://paste.debian.net/29504
[08:29] <erat123> did you find a tutorial on booting ubuntu from a usb stick?  i would be interested in reading that.
[08:30] <crimsun> cinvoke: mute 'External Amplifier'
[08:30] <minerale> kandinski: check to make sure if the usb disk has a mechanical switch, I had one to make it read only
[08:30] <kandinski> erat123: I am just the guy updating the content, I am really afraid to fuck it up more than it already is
[08:30] <cweagans> kandinski: sudo chmod 777 *insert mount point to usb stick*
[08:30] <kandinski> minerale: already checked it up, no switch
[08:30] <cinvoke> crimsun: what's that?
[08:31] <DarkED> the ntfs3g driver says you cannot write compressed files... does this include music formats / video formats, .rar / .zip, tarballs, etc?
[08:31] <DarkED> any compressed format?

[08:32] <kandinski> it is already 755
[08:32] <crimsun> cinvoke: it's a mixer element
[08:32] <cweagans> also make sure that your BIOS supports USB boot
[08:32] <crimsun> cinvoke: amixer set 'External Amplifier' mute
[08:33] <cweagans> some of the older ones (and even some of the newer ones) dont
[08:33] <kandinski> cweagans: I am on the laptop where I only have to update the content
[08:33] <kandinski> this laptop does not support USB boot, and does not have to: I just have to copy stuff to the relevant directories in the USB disk
[08:33] <cweagans> oh
[08:33] <cweagans> sry....i was thinking about another question that was asked earlier
[08:34] <erat123> can you still copy content to the usb stick via ubuntu or windows or something?
[08:34] <cweagans> can you just do "sudo cp *filename* *target directory*

[08:38] <bionoid> Hi. Major problem here - I had evolution open and my laptop ran out of battery. When I hooked it up to power, all my e-mail is gone (it asked me to create a new account). Does anyone know how I might extract an (important!) attachment from the lost e-mail? Thanks
[08:38] <cweagans> aabrahao: linky?
[08:39] <PurpZeY> bionoid: Wouldn't such a file also be stored on the server end?
[08:39] <cweagans> aabrahao: try this: a2enmod php5
[08:39] <kandinski> this is what I see when I kandinski@derive:~$ ls -l /media*

[08:39] <demonspork> What do I do with a dvd I downloaded and all the filenames begin with DiSHON
[08:39] <PurpZeY> bionoid: I would guess that Evolution has a backup dir for such things...I just have no idea where it is.
[08:40] <cweagans> aabrahao: see above
[08:40] <cweagans> a2enmod php5
[08:40] <PingFloyd> kandinski: I wouldn't do that to any system dirs
[08:40] <bionoid> PurpZeY: Hehe I was hoping so too;)
[08:40] <erat123> hey, for that usb stick problem... does this help at all (the last response) https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/7067
[08:40] <cinvoke> crimsun:  is it poss to view the driver?  if so how?
[08:40] <kandinski> PingFloyd: why not?
[08:41] <cweagans> anyone know where to find apache error logs?
[08:41] <PingFloyd> kandinski: because you want those as secure as possible
[08:41] <bionoid> cweagans: /var/log/apache typically
[08:41] <drovleywheysky> hi
[08:41] <cweagans> bionoid: thx
[08:41] <kandinski> This is the way I am supposed to update this system: I run the program locally, then copy the stuff to the usb disk, then boot the production machine with the usb disk
[08:41] <x0qa> is gdm still running after you login?
[08:42] <crimsun> cinvoke: what do you mean by "view the driver"?
[08:42] <cweagans> aabrahao: can you put your apache error log in a pastebin somewhere?
[08:42] <cinvoke> crimsun: source
[08:42] <PurpZeY> bionoid: Somewhere in /usr/ perhaps?
[08:42] <kandinski> PingFloyd: been doing it for a week without problem. And the problem now is that the files can't get copied
[08:42] <crimsun> cinvoke: sure, `apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)', then look in sound/pci/intel8x0.c
[08:42] <PingFloyd> kandinski: need to know more specifics
[08:43] <crimsun> cinvoke: although for your issue, sound/pci/ac97/ac97_*.c is more pertinent
[08:43] <kandinski> Restating problem: this usb disk is getting mounted read-only on my laptop

[08:43] <PingFloyd> kandinski: what type of filesystem is on it?
[08:44] <kandinski> this should not be a problem, since I copyl with sudo cp -r
[08:44] <bionoid> PurpZeY: Not likely, regular users have no write permissions there. Probably in ~/.evolution somewhere but can't find anything sensible
[08:44] <kandinski> usbdisk is not the problem, and is a vfat boot partition
[08:44] <kandinski> usbdisk-1 is the problem, and contains / on an ext3 partition
[08:44] <PingFloyd> you need to use some options in your fstab to make it readable
[08:44] <bionoid> PurpZeY: but hey, fuck it, i'm just gonna call the airline and explain the situation. Thanks anyway :)
[08:44] <kandinski> PingFloyd: fstab contains nothing about these two disks
[08:45] <cinvoke> crimsun:  thanks for all your help
[08:45] <kandinski> it is mounted by some ubuntu automagic

[08:46] <maksvlad> Hi, ppl
 php is already installed
 php5 is already installed and the error message in a2enmod php5
[08:48] <aabrahao>  is the same
[08:48] <cweagans> aabrahao: can you copy your apache error log file to a pastebin please?
[08:48] <heruba> how do i get the development libraries for X/Xlib in ubuntu to start writting X applications
[08:49] <cweagans> aabrahao: the apache log file is located here: /var/log/apache2/error.log and the pastebin service is here: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[08:49] <bionoid> heruba: apt-get install libx11-dev   but that might not be what you want at all. What language do you intend to use?
[08:51] <cweagans> I just installed Anjuta. When I try to build an executable in Anjuta, it gives me an error that says "sh: g++: not found", though I know for a fact that it is installed
[08:52] <PingFloyd> kandinski: here's the 411 on that
[08:52] <PingFloyd> kandinski: To get write access to a vfat partition when mounting it with fstab, use the line "/dev/partition /mount/point vfat defaults,uid=USERID,gid=GROUPID,umask=002 0 0" in /etc/fstab. umask=002 will make the partition rwxrwxr-x, while umask=022 will make it rwxr-xr-x. Get your user/group ids with the command "id"
[08:52] <hiroki> hello there. i'm not having a ubuntu specific problem but a problem with a flash drive. anyone willing to help me?
[08:52] <bionoid> cweagans: Maybe you need to either a) create a symlink from g++ to g++-4.0 or b) change configuration of Anjuta to use g++-4.0
[08:52] <CortexH3> cweagans:  look in /usr/bin
[08:52] <cweagans> bionoid: how to you create a symlink?
[08:53] <allan__> I am using xfwm as the window manager for gnome. how do I configure keyboard shortcuts?
[08:53] <cweagans> sudo sm g++ g++4.0 ?
[08:53] <CortexH3> ln -s g++ g++.4.1
[08:53] <hiroki> no one? :(
[08:53] <bionoid> cweagans: what CortexH3 make sure you do it in /usr/bin
[08:54] <bionoid> +said
[08:54] <PingFloyd> kandinski: you can /msg dpkg vfatrw (a bot in #debian) if you ever need to see that quick tidbit again in the future
[08:54] <bionoid> hiroki: just ask your question maybe someone will answer
[08:55] <heruba> cc fuck.c -o fuck -lX11
[08:55] <heruba> perhaps the code i'm using isn't compatible with the xlibs installed
[08:55] <heruba> it gives me 6 warnings and 4 errors
[08:55] <CortexH3> bionoid: because i had the file there
[08:55] <CortexH3> i have
[08:55] <Flannel> !language | heruba
[08:55] <ubotu> heruba: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[08:55] <CortexH3> and the link too
[08:56] <hiroki> ok. i have this flash drive that i screwed up by doing a lot of things to it. it doesn't seem to work anymore.
[08:56] <hiroki> parted says 'Unable to open /dev/sdb - unrecognised disk label.' when i try to do something with it
[08:56] <cweagans> bionoid: could it be that anjuta is using the wrong shell? I think it should be using bash instead of sh
[08:56] <CortexH3> lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root       7 May 24 13:35 g++ -> g++-4.1
[08:56] <bionoid> CortexH3: Hmm ok then I assume you need to poke around in Anjuta config - havn't used it so can't help you there
[08:56] <CortexH3> -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  185856 Mar  3 02:50 g++-4.1
[08:57] <hiroki> and fdisk says 'Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel'. can i totally erase the drive and do a new partition to it?
[08:57] <W1ZrD> Is there a program that can convert from .mp3, to .wav?
[08:58] <cweagans> W1ZRD: audacity
 pasted
[08:58] <cweagans> aabrahao: and the url?
[08:58] <W1ZrD> cweagans: thank's, is that in the reps?
[08:58] <cweagans> yes
 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23839/
[08:58] <bionoid> hiroki: Hm you are not able to create a partition on it using fdisk or your favourite tool?
[08:58] <cweagans> WIZRD: sudo apt-get install audacity
 how you know everythink?
[08:59] <hiroki> bionoid: no, i can't. it seems like it does it, but when i reboot it doesn't has any partition
[08:59] <cweagans> aabrahao: I do this as a profession even though Im 15
[08:59] <CortexH3> cweagans: in the anjuta directory run : ln -s g++ /usr/bin/g++-4.1
[08:59] <mneptok> cweagans: not to mention i gave you the Anjuta answer
[08:59] <ke4nt_> WIZrD , Also search apt for --> nautilus-script-audio-convert
[08:59] <cweagans> aabrahao: what are the permissions on your web directory
[09:00] <ke4nt_> W1ZrD , Also search apt for --> nautilus-script-audio-convert
[09:00] <cweagans> mneptok: sorry....could remember your username and I could not figure out how to change the shell
[09:00] <ke4nt_> also soundconverter
[09:00] <mneptok> aabrahao: have you set the .php MIME type correctly and told Apache to parse, rather than display, php content?
[09:00] <sahil_> has anybody tried getting the free stickers from here http://system76.com/index.php/cPath/53_64?osCsid=00d2c2b4e3d2611e801b8c7584741714
[09:01] <cweagans> mneptok: his apache error log is giving permission denied messages
[09:01] <mneptok> cweagans: Anjuta probably has a preference for choosing environment variables like whicrh shell to use
[09:01] <bionoid> hiroki: did you try fdisk /dev/sdX then type "o" ?
[09:01] <cweagans> mneptok: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23839/
[09:01] <cweagans> kk
 777
[09:01] <CortexH3> sahil: you spam us ?
[09:01] <sahil_> no
[09:01] <sahil_> im asking cuz i want them
[09:01] <sahil_> and wondering if they are scaming me
[09:02] <mneptok> aabrahao: are those drictories in the webroot?
[09:02] <pr0t0type> hi ! I've got ubuntu and xp running on one hdd. Now i need to install that damn xp new. Is linux still 'bootable' after installing (grub) ??
[09:02] <hiroki> bionoid: yes, i did
[09:02] <bionoid> hiroki: and 'w' afterwards also? ;)
[09:02] <Flannel> pr0t0type: yeah, you'll just have to reinstall grub, first link:
[09:02] <hiroki> bionoid: of course.
[09:02] <Flannel> !grub | pr0t0type
[09:02] <ubotu> pr0t0type: 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
[09:02] <bionoid> hiroki: Sorry running out of options then, you could try dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdX to erase everything, then repeat the fdisk procedure
[09:02] <GenNMX> pr0t0type: If you reinstall XP, you'll need to reinstall grub using a Live CD or Floppy, because XP's bootloader will overwrite it.
[09:03] <bionoid> hiroki: but most likely you're screwed
[09:03] <pr0t0type> k thx a lot :)
[09:03] <hiroki> bionoid: ok, i'll try that. thanks :)
[09:03] <cweagans> aabrahao: sorry i could not help you: you might check this site since you are still having problems: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu704_p2
[09:03] <mneptok> aabrahao: are those directories in the webroot?
[09:04] <Flannel> cweagans, aabrahao, don't use howtoforge.
[09:04] <GenNMX> Now, how can I tell which event in /proc/bus/input/devices is my USB Keyboard? There seem to be multiple listings for the same keyboard.
 I think MIME.types is in version 1.x, now is anyting with modes-enable
[09:05] <cweagans> Flannel: I would generally agree with you, but this tutorial is generally good. The only problem that I've had with it is that one of the needed modules for apache does not get enabled
 yes about the directories
[09:05] <Flannel> cweagans: no, the howtoforge things for "perfect setups" are all crap.  They do unsafe and stupid things.
[09:06] <cweagans> Flannel: like?
[09:06] <kandinski> hallo again
[09:06] <kandinski> I have unmounted the disk and fsck-d it
[09:06] <abadesa> soo....if i installed ubuntu    during the installation it would help me reparition my hard drive correct? i wouldn't have to create a new partition before i started the installation
[09:06] <Flannel> cweagans: regardless, he's on dapper, not Feisty.  So that's the wrong link, even if we were to use that horrible site
[09:07] <kandinski> apparently it has hardware errors, correct me if I am wrong:
[09:07] <mneptok> aabrahao: Premature end of script headers: teste.php, referer: http://marcelomilani.com/  <--- that's a broken script
[09:07] <cweagans> ok: fixed link: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu606_p2
[09:07] <mneptok> aabrahao: SoftException in Application.cpp:225: File "/var/www/teste.php" is writeable by group  <--- that's a permissions isseu
[09:08] <kandinski> on ctrl-alt-f8 I have "logical error 0n device /dev/sda2, logical block 44036"
[09:08] <kandinski> about ten lines of that
[09:08] <kandinski> even after fsck -a says filesystem is clean
[09:08] <cweagans> oops...sorry: above link is no good. heres the good one: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06_p2
[09:08] <kandinski> can that be the reason why disk gets mounted read-only all the time?
 the permissions are -rwxrwxrwx
[09:10] <mneptok> aabrahao: and your pastebin is telling you that a group-writable scipt is making Apache angry
 but is -rwxrwxrwx in all directory and files
[09:12] <Flannel> aabrahao: Right.  It's telling you that it should NOT be writable by group
 and is that good?

[09:40] <fargiolas> hi i'm looking for a php based stuff that implements a sort of wget based download queue, so that downloads are done in the server and clients can submit their url through a web interface.. does a thing like this exist?
[09:40] <_riks> tc roryy
[09:41] <cweagans> fargiolas: if you know php, you could easily build something like that using the php "exec" command. This command provides shell interface that would allow you to use the actual wget command
[09:41] <tiberioG> ok grazie
[09:41] <cweagans> roryy: MinGWStudio: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
[09:41] <roryy> cweagans: yeah, i saw.  I am bewildered.

[09:42] <exspiro> _riks i cant edit the modules.config file in /etc directory
[09:42] <roryy> cweagans: how about 'ldd ./MinGWStudio' ? (output possibly too long for here)
[09:42] <exspiro> says read only
[09:42] <exspiro> is there a way to change the permissions
[09:42] <fargiolas> cweagans: yes i was planning to to it by myself but i'd like to know if this already existed to not duplicate the work :)
[09:42] <kadaz> I just lost my three text menu drop down on ubunto. how to I reinstate it?
[09:42] <demo_N> Windows was much better
[09:42] <_riks> exspiro, sudo vi /etc/modules.conf or su and vi it

[09:43] <_riks> cheers varka
[09:43] <Hobbsee> demo_N: depends what you want to do with it.

[09:44] <cweagans> roryy: it says "not a dynamic executable"
[09:44] <Hobbsee> demo_N: and if you troll, i'll give you the boot.
[09:44] <Hillview> anyone know if feisty has any issues with a thinkpad t23, or do I need to find another dist?
[09:44] <michael> Guys, can you please help me install tomcat5.5 - I am getting dependency errors:  apache-utils (>= 1.3.33-1) and apache2-common are not installable (I am also running apache2)
[09:44] <roryy> cweagans: eh?  but file said it was?  Are you on a 64-bit or PPC system ?
[09:44] <cweagans> roryy: 64 bit, yed
[09:44] <cweagans> yes
[09:44] <cweagans> *
[09:44] <roryy> cweagans: ah-ha!
[09:44] <demo_N> I am not trolling , with just three windows firefox and eclipse open  I am getting out of memory exception in ubuntu
[09:45] <demo_N> And it takes like 4 sec to get a window minimised
[09:45] <kadaz> reboto
[09:45] <demo_N> BTW i am not running Desktop effects or any eye candy
[09:45] <roryy> cweagans: i think you'll need either a 64-bit version of this program, or you can investigate running 32-bit apps on a 64-bit system---I'm not sure, but I think chroot is the usual way to get this right
[09:45] <kadaz> has it been this way since install?
[09:46] <roryy> cweagans: really useless error message though; should have been 'incompatible binary' or something like that
[09:46] <cweagans> roryy: yeah....i agree
[09:46] <gucao> must in english here?
[09:46] <cweagans> roryy: i was stupid to overlook that....must be getting late

[09:48] <demo_N> giany911: use utorrent with wine
[09:49] <demo_N> TaJMox : I am not running fire fox
[09:49] <TaJMoX> giany911 Deluge is a good small fast client for gnome

[09:49] <bitform> I want beryl to open on startup. how do I do that?
[09:49] <TaJMoX> demo_n why is all your memory taken?

[09:50] <bitform> how do I make programs load @ startup???
[09:50] <roryy> kadaz: try Alt-F2,  and run gnome-panel
[09:51] <TaJMoX> bitform : patience   ...   System -> Preferences -> Sessions     then click startup programs tab
[09:51] <bitform> thx
[09:51] <roryy> bitform: i believe #ubuntu-effects is a good place to ask about beryl, though what you want sounds simple enough
[09:51] <bitform> ok thx
[09:51] <exspiro> _riks no success

[10:04] <novato_br> roryy, i'm sure about that
[10:04] <Dan[Laptop] > I don't know why.
[10:04] <charles> can someone send me a link for partitions of winxp and ubuntu on dual boot
[10:04] <Dan[Laptop] > And I can't alter the settings for it anymore, the two checkboxes are greyed out
[10:04] <novato_br> i'm on windows, roryy
[10:04] <charles> i have a 36775 mb HDD
[10:05] <novato_br> it's works normally
[10:05] <cweagans> Dan[Laptop] : try Beryl....much more useful and has cooler effects

[10:05] <Dan[Laptop] > I'll give it another go
[10:05] <Dan[Laptop] > :)
[10:05] <charles> can someone send me a link for partitions of winxp and ubuntu on dual boot
[10:05] <roryy> novato_br: try setting the network IP statically in Ubuntu (check the IP address/subnet settings in windows).  That will let you test if you can connect at all
[10:05] <Dan[Laptop] > Erm.. Can you use fglrx drivers with Beryl?
[10:05] <novato_br> when i go to ubuntu the internet it's not works

[10:07] <ZancatL33tU> preem_: why not?  I've done it on my Debian box and everything is ok
[10:07] <Dan[Laptop] > Do I have to log in/out or restart to restart X?
[10:07] <brylie> with CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE Dan[Laptop] 
[10:08] <roryy> novato_br: then i'm out of ideas, sorry
[10:08] <gucao> you can use     network-admin
[10:08] <preem_> ZancaL333tU: Maybe someone else can clarify, but i seriously doubt its a good think to have whole filesystem owned by other than root
[10:08] <cweagans> novato_br: for static network, "sudo gedit /etc/networks/interfaces
[10:08] <octoberd1n> How do I retain my internet connection through my local router when accessing a network over VPN?

[10:08] <bluefox> i have a serious problem, i am in ubuntu feisty, i went to start my machine and it mounted in read-only. my cdrom doesn't work, i don't have a floppy drive, and i don't have any usb drives D:
[10:08] <ZancatL33tU> preem_: its only root cuz I formatted it with mke2fs
[10:08] <cweagans> novato_br: you will have to look up the syntac for that file though
[10:08] <preem_> ZancaL33tU: if you still want to do it, it would probably be done like this: chown user:group -R /
[10:08] <bluefox> it boots into read-only no matter what kernel i boot into
[10:09] <ZeroNeg> hi, i need to figure out how to get the dvd plugin for totem on ubuntu....any thoughts?
[10:09] <preem_> -R tells it to go recursevly
[10:09] <roryy> preem_: that is a bad idea, cos the setuid on 'sudo' and other programs will break
[10:09] <novato_br> what, cweagans?
[10:09] <bluefox> !dvd > ZeroNeg
[10:09] <preem_> rorry, thanks
[10:09] <cweagans> novato_br: you were asking about static network
[10:09] <novato_br> yep
[10:09] <ZeroNeg> !dvd
[10:09] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[10:09] <ZeroNeg> thanks bluefox
[10:10] <mo0osah> I just got everything working exactly the way I like it.  What are some good alternatives to back everything up
[10:10] <bluefox> yup
[10:10] <novato_br> i want know about static network configurations
[10:10] <viller> how do I browse samba shares without nautilus or konqueror?
[10:10] <viller> CLI would be fine
[10:10] <bluefox> now if only someone can help me boot this machine into rw or fix the cause of the breakage
[10:10] <preem_> novato_br: smb://
[10:10] <cweagans> novato_br: use this: "sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces". You will have to look up the syntax for that file, but that is the file you need to edit to get static network routes
[10:10] <novato_br> can you send me the file configuration, cweagans?
[10:10] <roryy> viller: you could try smbclient or smbtree
[10:10] <ZancatL33tU> damn it it won't work
[10:11] <novato_br> the syntax is auto eth0
[10:11] <novato_br> iface eth0 inet loopback
[10:11] <cweagans> novato_br: http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-ubuntu-linux-convert-dhcp-network-configuration-to-static-ip-configuration.html
[10:11] <bluefox> come on people D:
[10:11] <roryy> viller: you can also mount network shares ( -t cifs, i think)
[10:11] <novato_br> thx, cweagans
[10:11] <novato_br> i'll see
[10:11] <octoberd1n> Why would I loose my internet connection as soon as networkmanager-pptp connects me to a vpn?
[10:12] <roryy> bluefox: you didn't get any useful error messages?
[10:12] <bluefox> rorry, no, just faulted on trying to start X, then i noticed that it's booted into the filesystem as ro
[10:12] <bluefox> *roryy
[10:13] <roryy> bluefox: hrm.  have you tried booting in recovery mode and looking through the logs?
[10:13] <bluefox> <---in irssi
[10:13] <novato_br> but somebody knows what's the reason doesn't dhcp works?
[10:13] <bluefox> will recovery mode boot me into rw mode?
[10:13] <roryy> no
[10:13] <bluefox> that's what i need
[10:13] <roryy> well, not if your system is really broken, i mean
[10:13] <roryy> are you on the livecd now?
[10:14] <bluefox> i don't think it's broken, i was adding a new kernel and grub gave a wierd error, and before i could investigate the power went out...
[10:14] <darwin81> How big should a default install of Ubuntu be?
[10:14] <roryy> doh!
[10:14] <gucao> i am installing  monodevelop......my network ..so slowly.  15KB/S
[10:14] <bluefox> no i'm actually on my system...i don't have a working cdrom...
[10:14] <corelist> ubuntuMan: or type fonts:/// in a nautilus address bar (eg. my computer)
[10:14] <x66> I have a size of 36775 and 8000mb used what should I resize it to?
[10:14] <viller> roryy: any links you can give me?
[10:15] <roryy> viller: they're in package 'smbclient' (for both); otherwise nothing other than the tuts at www.samba.org
[10:16] <bluefox> roryy: i'm actually booting into the system but it's always ro for some reason, i tried editing things in the grub menu, but reguardless of any changed i do, it doesn't seem to fix the problem...
[10:16] <x66> I have a size of 36775 and 8000mb used what should I resize it to?
[10:16] <roryy> bluefox: what error message do you get if you try to remount rw ?
[10:16] <bluefox> roryy: that the drive is busy or already mounted
[10:16] <roryy> bluefox: something like 'mount -o remount,rw /' ?
[10:16] <bluefox> and sudo umount /dev/hda1 doesn't give anything
[10:17] <roryy> bluefox: i think the 'remount' option should take care of the 'already mounted' error
[10:17] <gucao> can i resize my / or mount /usr to a new partten??
[10:18] <bluefox> roryy: ok, i got a error about data-writeback not being a recognised value
[10:19] <roryy> bluefox: i'll google that; no idea what it means
[10:19] <premier_> Hi, my windows key isn't properly configured (according to xev, its attached to nosymbol).  How do I get it configured correctly?
[10:20] <bluefox> roryy: data-writeback is an option i changed in /etc/fstab to make hard drive read/write times faster..it was on a ubuntu help horum i found about speeding up ubuntu
[10:20] <roryy> ah
[10:20] <premier_> bluefox: is that safe?
[10:20] <bluefox> roryy: i was supposed to add a similar option to /boot/grub/menu.lst but the power went out when i was editing it
[10:21] <premier_> bluefox: ouch
[10:21] <roryy> bluefox: do you have a live cd?
[10:21] <bluefox> premier_: it's on the ubuntu forums, and there aren't any warnings..i did this on another machine but the power didn't manage to go out when i was editing the grub.lst file for that machine >.>
[10:21] <bluefox> roryy: have several, just don't have a working cdrom
[10:21] <roryy> bluefox: ah
[10:22] <Omnius> is anyone else having trouble with the kernel .16?
[10:22] <bluefox> otherwise i woulda booted in, chrooted into it
[10:22] <bluefox> and edited the grub.lst

[10:22] <roryy> bluefox: what does 'mount | grep /dev/hda1' say ? (i'm assuming / is on /dev/hda1)
[10:22] <novato_br> i download feisty, but it has with kernel x.x.15

[10:24] <daylighter> wow
[10:24] <daylighter> it knows everything
[10:24] <bluefox> roryy: for how it's mounted, it says the whole (rw,errors=remount-ro) thing
[10:24] <x66> how do you dual boot into windows, I have a 40gb hd.
[10:24] <Omnius> when i startup with the x.x.16 kernel it stalls and i get /bin/sh:cant access tty;
[10:24] <shiryu> anyone knows how to use mldonkey?
[10:24] <premier_> Omnius: is that the new kernel?  I've been having random lock ups that last few days
[10:24] <Omnius> yeah
[10:24] <shiryu> i  installed it a few minutes ago but i dont know how to do it works
[10:25] <bluefox> x66: install windows, install ubuntu, ubuntu will figure it out for you
[10:25] <premier_> I think mine is fglrx related, I'm considering downgrading
[10:25] <roryy> bluefox: i take it the data-writeback thing is part of the mount options ?
[10:25] <roryy> bluefox: as opposed to something weirder?
[10:25] <bluefox> roryy: correct
[10:25] <premier_> actually, I think I might downgrade to pre-march, so I can fix open office too
[10:25] <ubuntuMan> corelist: thanks man... i found it...
[10:25] <novato_br> dudes, how can I put the ubuntu boot on my pendriver ?
[10:26] <shiryu> #mldonkey
[10:26] <novato_br> my pendrive have 1GB
[10:26] <roryy> bluefox: maybe   'mount -o rw,remount /dev/hda1 /'   ? i'm trying to think how to get mount to ignore what's in fstab
[10:26] <novato_br> !ko
[10:26] <ubotu> For Korean help, /join #ubuntu-ko
[10:27] <sogen> someone know good ps emulator for linux?

[10:28] <preem_> anybody got any idea?
[10:29] <sogen> omeone know good ps emulator for linux?
[10:29] <roryy> preem_: uninstall libpurple0 ?
[10:29] <Azrael--> heya guys
[10:29] <bluefox> roryy: i did the shortcut, i fixed /etc/fstab by removing that little oddity
[10:29] <preem_> he, jp, thanks roryy, just did, and it works
[10:29] <bluefox> ok, gonna update grub incase that's a problem...then i'll go reboot..
[10:29] <leagris> meow Azrael--
[10:29] <Azrael--> hiya leagris
[10:30] <kadaz> why does linux create two files for documents?
[10:30] <kadaz> is this normal?
[10:30] <Azrael--> two files?
[10:30] <Azrael--> in what program? OOo?
[10:30] <kadaz> one is a p and other is p~
[10:31] <JosefK> anyone have a workaround for the broken monotone-server package? :/
[10:31] <^majik^> most likely a backup file.  yeah
[10:31] <dsdg> halo how do i install firefox? i tried apt-get install mozilla-firefox but i get an error
[10:31] <kadaz> majik, q2?
[10:31] <novato_br> hey
[10:31] <^majik^> periodic backups from the program you were using
[10:31] <Azrael--> kadaz, when you quit whatever you're making the file in, does it disappear?
[10:31] <kadaz> k, norm
[10:31] <kadaz> nope
[10:31] <^majik^> kadaz, yeah
[10:31] <novato_br> how can i put cd boot ubuntu on pendrive?
[10:31] <kadaz> hehe, kaz here
[10:32] <Azrael--> dsdg, what was the error?
[10:32] <sogen> someone know any psx emulator for ubuntu ??
[10:32] <^majik^> kadaz: not majikslug btw
[10:32] <Azrael--> there is a program called pSX, it's for linux and windows.
[10:32] <kadaz> azrael nope. its stagent
[10:32] <roryy> !info pcsx | sogen

[10:33] <kadaz> is there a linux cleaner?

[10:33] <kadaz> ^majik^ I dont know a slug
[10:34] <jenda> Is there an easy way to stitch several .odt, .rtf or .doc files together?
[10:34] <Azrael--> dsdg: try just installing firefox instead of mozilla-firefox
[10:34] <Azrael--> jenda: you mean, like a .tar file?
[10:34] <kadaz> heha stitch
[10:34] <Omnius> are there generic drivers for gamepads on a game port?
[10:34] <kadaz> lol
[10:34] <Azrael--> or to make them into one big .odt/.rtf/.doc file?
[10:34] <dsdg> Azrael--, However the following packages replace it:
[10:34] <dsdg>   libnss3
[10:34] <dsdg> E: Package firefox has no installation candidate
[10:34] <kadaz> ask gramma for a needle and thread :D
[10:35] <Azrael--> hehe
[10:36] <Kumbi> hi
[10:36] <Azrael--> hiya
[10:36] <gucao> monodevelop ,,,install success,,,it seams cool
[10:36] <ubuntuMan> hiya, how do i activate a font in ubuntu
[10:36] <Azrael--> dsdg: mozilla-firefox is just a dummy package. firefox is what you want
[10:36] <roryy> !font | ubuntuMan
[10:36] <ubotu> ubuntuMan: Font installation basics here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FontInstallHowto - No fonts in Flash? Install "msttcorefonts" (from !Multiverse), "gsfonts", and "gsfonts-x11". No fonts in MPlayer? see !MPlayer
[10:37] <dsdg> Azrael--, it wont install, damn man how can it not install firefox?
[10:37] <luca____> hello all :)
[10:38] <Azrael--> dsdg, post the full error message, not just the line with the E:
[10:38] <roryy> dsdg: perhaps your repositories are incorrectly setup
[10:38] <Azrael--> 'Package firefox is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[10:38] <Azrael--> This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
[10:38] <Azrael--> is only available from another source'
[10:38] <Azrael--> Does it say that?
[10:38] <roryy> dsdg: try running 'apt-get update' and try again
[10:38] <gucao> find it diff to vs.net in win
[10:38] <dsdg> roryy, done that,
[10:39] <roryy> dsdg: could you put your /etc/apt/sources.list on the pastebin too?
[10:39] <dsdg> cool,
[10:40] <Azrael--> dsdg, how have you not got firefox in ubuntu?
[10:41] <mrcreativity> can someone help me with my screenresolution
[10:41] <Azrael--> mrcreativity, don't ask to ask your question
[10:41] <Azrael--> just ask your question
[10:41] <dsdg> Azrael--, it started acting funny, not loading webpages and css, so i removed it thinking i could just install it, you would think it would be easier to get bill gates to kiss marks ass then getting firefox back on...
[10:41] <Azrael--> what's wrong with it?
[10:41] <mrcreativity> i cant seem to set it
[10:42] <dsdg> here is the pastebin with my sources.list and the apt-get install firefox error
[10:42] <dsdg> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23849/
[10:42] <Azrael--> mrcreativity, run 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg' from the console
[10:42] <mrcreativity> it keeps showing the default 1024x728
[10:42] <mrcreativity> i can increase it
[10:42] <Enselic_> Does anyone here speak Turkish?
[10:43] <mrcreativity> i cant increase it, sorry for the typo
[10:43] <roryy> dsdg: you're missing 'main'
[10:43] <Azrael--> run that command i told you
[10:43] <premier_> bluefox: where did you find that thread to speed up ubuntu, and was it worth it?
[10:43] <Azrael--> it will lead you through some options
[10:43] <Azrael--> leave them all as they are, apart from the screen res ones, of course :D
[10:43] <roryy> dsdg: the first line should read 'deb http://ubuntu.mirror.ac.za/ubuntu-archive feisty main restricted'
[10:43] <roryy> dsdg: and similarly for the other lines with restricted
[10:44] <mrcreativity> for video driver, should i choose nv or nvidia
[10:44] <dsdg> ok, let me make the change,
[10:44] <Azrael--> uh... nvidia, i think
[10:44] <Azrael--> but don't blame me if it explodes
[10:45] <gucao> exe file create by monodevelop can not run in windows?
[10:45] <roryy> dsdg: once you've updated sources.list, save it and rerun 'apt-get update'
[10:45] <Azrael--> one of them is the open source one, the other is proprietary
[10:45] <dsdg> roryy, doing it as we speak :)
[10:45] <roryy> gucao: maybe ask in ##mono, or on #mono on irc.gnome.org (different irc server)
[10:45] <dsdg> roryy, that fixed it!
[10:45] <dsdg> Thank you!!
[10:45] <roryy> dsdg: np
[10:45] <dsdg> damn surfing without firefox is a real pain!!!
[10:46] <gucao> THX
[10:48] <Azrael--> i think mrcreativity's X died.
[10:49] <fabien> ubotu/ french chqn for feisty
[10:49] <haydnc> Azrael--:  if it did he'll probably be bright enough to run the command again and pick nv instead of nvidia
[10:49] <Azrael--> fabien, #ubuntu-fr, iirc
[10:49] <Azrael--> that's true, haydnc
[10:49] <fabien> does anybody know of a good way to install beryl on feisty?
[10:50] <Azrael--> fabien, do you have an ATI card?
[10:50] <premier_> fabien: theres some tutorials on the ubuntu website...
[10:50] <premier_> fabien: what card do you have?
[10:50] <roryy> !beryl | fabien
[10:50] <ubotu> fabien: Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[10:50] <Azrael--> if you do, bashing your head on the keyboard may yield much the same result
[10:51] <fabien> Azramel, no i think it's an intel, is it lspci to find out?
[10:51] <haydnc> fabien: just curious, have you tried synaptic?
[10:51] <premier_> Azrael--: tell me about it... I finally got a working version of beryl yesterday... and it took me about 4 months
[10:51] <Azrael--> :D
[10:51] <Azrael--> fabien, lspci | grep intel
[10:51] <premier_> fabien: with intel cards its a walk in the park
[10:51] <Azrael--> intel cards are poop though
[10:52] <ubuntuMan> roryy: thanks, will read it now
[10:52] <haydnc> if you're not gaming they get the job done.. usually
[10:52] <Azrael--> if you've got an intel graphics card, beryl will probably run like poop too
[10:52] <fabien> ok guys; i ll check it out, cheers
[10:52] <crdlb> Azrael--, untrue
[10:52] <mattmagician> hey, can anyone help me connect to an IRC, i'm using XChat
[10:52] <Azrael--> you're on an IRC channel right now
[10:52] <crdlb> beryl runs fine on most intel cards
[10:52] <mattmagician> <.< i mean a specific one
[10:53] <mattmagician> #gonintendo
[10:53] <Azrael--> on what server?
[10:53] <corelist> mattmagician: type /join #CHANNEL_NAME
[10:53] <crdlb> fabien, what did lspci say?
[10:53] <Azrael--> ok matt: press ctrl+t, then '/server irc.slashnet.org'
[10:53] <Azrael--> when that's done, type '/join #gonintendo'
[10:54] <fabien> crdbl, it did not say anything...snif
[10:54] <crdlb> fabien, try: lspci|grep VGA
[10:55] <fabien> yep it is a intel corp, woopee....
[10:55] <crdlb> fabien, what's the model?
[10:55] <logixoul> Hi. Sudo doesn't ask me for a password anymore, and I'm running a webserver (open to the Web). Doesn't that me insecure?
[10:55] <fabien> Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[10:55] <fabien> fabien@hercule:~$
[10:55] <roryy> logixoul: try 'sudo -K' and then run sudo again
[10:55] <Azrael--> logixoul: when you've sudo'd recently it won't ask you for your password
[10:55] <fabien> crdlb:Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
[10:56] <fabien> fabien@hercule:~$
[10:56] <Azrael--> or has it just stopped completely?
[10:56] <crdlb> fabien, that'll work great
[10:56] <logixoul> Azrael--: completely, for the past 2 weeks
[10:56] <crdlb> fabien, sudo apt-get install beryl beryl-manager emerald-themes
[10:56] <logixoul> roryy: didn't work :(
[10:56] <crdlb> fabien, then run beryl-manager
[10:56] <fabien> crdbl, oh great master, could you guide me to a good link?
[10:56] <roryy> logixoul: did you change /etc/sudoers ?
[10:56] <Azrael--> that's odd, logi
[10:56] <logixoul> hmm
[10:57] <crdlb> fabien, that command is all you need :)
[10:57] <fabien> just launching it
[10:57] <fabien> o
[10:57] <logixoul> roryy: I don't remember if I changed /etc/sudoers (I *think* I changed something there, like adding myself or something), but right now it's empty
[10:57] <roryy> logixoul: /etc/sudoers is empty?
[10:57] <roryy> logixoul: that doesn't sound right
[10:58] <logixoul> wait, no. my bad.
[10:58] <logixoul> ah, here it is. found the problem. some howto once told me to add "root    ALL=(ALL) ALL" and "%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL" in there
[10:59] <logixoul> anyways, it's insecure if I'm running a webserver, right?
[10:59] <roryy> logixoul: that is standard
[10:59] <Azrael--> i'm gonna reinstall feisty soon.
[10:59] <Azrael--> i'm gonna use root all the time.
[10:59] <roryy> logixoul: you must have changed something else
[11:00] <roryy> logixoul: security wrt your webserver depends on what user the webserver runs as
[11:00] <logixoul> roryy: oh wait, here's something else
[11:00] <logixoul> logixoul    ALL = NOPASSWD : ALL
[11:00] <logixoul> yes, that must be it :)
[11:01] <pyrogan> my keyboard layout in X is messed up.. when I hit the quote key (right of the semicolon), instead of inserting a quotemark or apostrophe, it waits for input- then gives me accented characters.. like this:    .. how can I fix this?
[11:01] <logixoul> roryy: one apache2 runs as root and a dozen run as logixoul - is that OK?
[11:01] <Azrael--> pyrogan, try 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'.
[11:02] <fabien> crdlb: cheers man,it works a treat, things have really improved on ubuntu....
[11:02] <Azrael--> it'll give you some keyboard options
[11:02] <roryy> logixoul: that doesn't sound standard... ?
[11:02] <logixoul> roryy: how many am I supposed to have? and what user should they be running from?
[11:02] <spiderman2> hi there, im getting the following error in ubuntu 7.0.4 "  Kinit: No Resume Image, Doing Normal Boot"  any suggestion?
[11:02] <spiderman2> hi there, im getting the following error in ubuntu 7.0.4 "  Kinit: No Resume Image, Doing Normal Boot"  any suggestion?
[11:02] <roryy> logixoul: hrm, i'm not sure--- i thought apache2 ran as www-data or similar by default
[11:03] <maeth> hi ^
[11:03] <maeth> ^^
[11:03] <mangaaddict> hello all
[11:03] <maeth> anybody knows about beryl?
[11:03] <pyrogan> Azrael: wont that rewrite my xorg.conf? not that I cant make a backup, but like... hows that going to fix this? I picked a 104 key, US layout..
[11:03] <cwillu> logixoul, looks the same as mine
[11:03] <Azrael--> spiderman2, do you use KDE?
[11:03] <`cYr|x_> need help... my KDE system program wont run... it says KDE SU return error
[11:03] <`cYr|x_> need help... my KDE system program wont run... it says KDE SU return error
[11:03] <maeth> that can help me with a little question
[11:03] <pyrogan> which is what I have
[11:03] <slain> I know beryl
[11:03] <maeth> i got it working and all...
[11:03] <spiderman2> im using GNOME
[11:03] <logixoul> roryy: ah right... but I think I changed that in apache2.conf to make sure I don't get any permission problems
[11:03] <logixoul> roryy: was that silly?
[11:03] <yai> test
[11:03] <maeth> slain, k, the thing is , i installed , working just fine
[11:04] <SomeKindOfMonste> wats the command to run Kdevelop?
[11:04] <Azrael--> spiderman2, then why do you have kinit installed?
[11:04] <roryy> logixoul: hrm.  i'm no security expert, but i'd suggest giving www-data access to the files it needs instead
[11:04] <haydnc> pyrogan: sounds like you've got a uk keyboard setup instead of a US keyboard you might find that you can play around in System - Preferences - Keyboard  until you find the right keyboard in there
[11:04] <logixoul> SomeKindOfMonste: kdevelop
[11:04] <roryy> logixoul: you could put the files in the www-data group, for instance
[11:04] <pyrogan> haydnc: yeah? ill give it a look... tried that earlier, but it didnt seem to fix anything.
[11:04] <maeth> slain, the thing is, now , when i open a new window... the window appear behind the current one...
[11:04] <maeth> slain, i know its silly but its reaalllyyy anoying cause you cant tell when did it open the actual window...
[11:05] <roryy> logixoul: i'm no security expert, and i feel uncomfortable giving security advice.
[11:05] <logixoul> roryy: I tried exactly that at first, but one problem occured - I had to manually chgrp any file I added to the site. Is there any way to bypass this?
[11:05] <kadaz> roryy is my linux drive space increasing quickly, is there a internet files, tmp and so forth type cleaner?
[11:05] <haydnc> pyrogan: just a guess but the answer could be under keyboard layouts
[11:05] <roryy> logixoul: yes, you can chmod g+s the directory
[11:05] <slain> maeth, that is a weird one.
[11:05] <spiderman2> Azrael, can you tell me what to do now
[11:06] <logixoul> roryy: well you sure know more than _me_ :) this ain't a production webserver, don't worry
[11:06] <Azrael--> does GNOME start at all, spiderman2?
[11:06] <slain> maeth, I have no idea what your problem could be
[11:06] <roryy> kadaz: not that i know of; you could look at applications -> accessories -> disk usage analyzer
[11:06] <maeth> slain, yeah... now im using metacity, but when i activate beryl... that happens...
[11:06] <jenda> Azrael--: erm, sorry, ran off.
[11:06] <jenda> Azrael--: no, I meant, into one bigger .odt/.doc/.rtf doc
[11:07] <kadaz> roryy I installed programs via console, is there a app finder so I can run these apps?
[11:07] <maeth> slain, reaaallyy annoying...
[11:07] <foug> does ubuntu have a keylogger anywhere?
[11:07] <spiderman2> i get only blank screen, when press esc or enter i get this error
[11:07] <maeth> slain, and i love beryl... dont wanna stop using it
[11:07] <roryy> logixoul: read 'info coreutils chmod' instead
[11:07] <Azrael--> i'm supposing copy-and-paster just won't do, jenda?
[11:07] <slain> maeth, have you tried compiz
[11:07] <maeth> gonna check
[11:07] <spiderman2> X -server failed to start
[11:07] <maeth> one sec...
[11:07] <roryy> logixoul: in particular, the 'Note' on file permissions
[11:07] <flowingfire> Hello everybody.  I was told that you can recompile your freetype library with patented stuff enabled so your text rendering looks just as good as Mac or Windows.  Does anybody know how to do this?
[11:07] <jenda> Azrael--: well, it would, but I was looking for something more elegant, as it happens to me rather often that I need that.
[11:07] <Azrael--> lol, i just checked, i get that error too
[11:07] <Azrael--> it's got nothing to do with your X problems afaik.
[11:08] <roryy> kadaz: the apps should just run from the command-line; you can use 'dpkg -L' to list files belonging to a package
[11:08] <Azrael--> jenda, i have no idea about any solutions.
[11:08] <maeth> slain, nop, the problem doesnt happen in compiz
[11:08] <Azrael--> it would be easy with plaintext, jenda
[11:08] <maeth> slain, just beryl...
[11:08] <Azrael--> bubi guys, be back in 5
[11:08] <slain> maeth, are you running beryl svn
[11:09] <maeth> svn?
[11:09] <maeth> sladen, svn?
[11:09] <setog3> there is a fr chan ? .. don't find .. I wan t to install something usuable for my mother this afternoon, and I think ubuntu can be a good Idea, but I don't have internet in my mother's home, so I wan to download a full ubuntu cd with french language is it possible ?
[11:09] <slain> maeth, svn is the daily builds
[11:09] <roryy> !fr | setog3
[11:09] <ubotu> setog3: Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[11:09] <Azrael||BRB> '/join #ubuntu-fr'
[11:09] <slain> maeth, sometimes they can have some weird bugs in them
[11:09] <logixoul> maeth: more precisely, the unstable development version
[11:09] <setog3> thx
[11:09] <maeth> slain, dunno... just installed it according a to web page i found on internet
[11:09] <roryy> setog3: hm.  I think the cd's come with lots of language packs, but i'm not sure
[11:10] <maeth> slain, k, and how do i update it?
[11:10] <slain> maeth, can you send me the link to the webpage
[11:10] <slain> so that I can see what they told you todo
[11:10] <maeth> slain, gonna try to find it again...
[11:11] <slain> maeth the easiest way is to install it from the ubuntu repository
[11:11] <roryy> setog3: i see a 'language-pack-fr' package on the alternate install CD; there could well be one on the desktop cd too
[11:11] <kadaz> roryy is ntfs +rw safe on ubuntu
[11:11] <logixoul> kadaz: only if you use the ntfs-3G driver, AFAIK
[11:11] <roryy> kadaz: i don't know; i haven't tried it (as i think i said before)
[11:11] <maeth> slain, seems thats the problem
[11:12] <logixoul> kadaz: a friend is using it with no problems
[11:12] <kadaz> I downloaded a ntfs-config 0.5.5
[11:13] <slain> kadaz I am using ntfs-3g daily
[11:13] <Azrael||BRB> bubi now
[11:13] <maeth> slain, i mean, it works fine and all... but its just that bug
[11:13] <maeth> slain, so, how do i reinstall it?
[11:13] <maeth> i go to the synaptic?
[11:13] <kadaz> This tool use the ntfs-3g driver : http://www.ntfs-3g.org
[11:13] <setog3> roryy: ok thx, but do you think there is a dvd with something like ubuntu feisty + snapshot of universe ?
[11:13] <kadaz> k, thx
[11:13] <Enselic_> I'd like to get in contact with any Turkish-speaking person that knows English, and the -tr channel is empty, does anyone know any irc channel where I can find one?
[11:13] <maeth> slain, go to sypnatic package manager then...
[11:13] <slain> kadaz, no problems so far, been using it daily for about two months now
[11:13] <maeth> slain, this is the web page :D
[11:13] <roryy> setog3: i don't think that would fit on 1 dvd
[11:13] <maeth> slain, its in spanish though.... http://seodm.wordpress.com/2007/05/19/instalar-beryl-en-ubuntu-feisty-fawn-704-con-nvidia/
[11:14] <roryy> setog3: there is a dvd, which would probably be handy for you
[11:14] <setog3> where
[11:14] <xukun> is it possible to import itunes format music to mp3 ogg? is there a tool for this?
[11:14] <kadaz> Mount is denied because NTFS logfile is unclean
[11:15] <kadaz> what?
[11:15] <roryy> setog3: http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/feisty/release/
[11:15] <setog3> last question I think server version provide an installer like in debian ? and desktop version provide a bootable cd, like knoppix and you install after booting the os ?
[11:15] <roryy> !info mp32ogg | xukun
[11:15] <ubotu> xukun: mp32ogg: Converts MP3 file to Ogg Vorbis. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.11-8 (feisty), package size 7 kB, installed size 64 kB
[11:15] <logixoul> kadaz: perhaps you need to boot into windows (so it can maybe fix its "log"), then back to ubuntu
[11:16] <roryy> setog3: yes.  there is also an 'alternate' cd with a text-mode install
[11:16] <logixoul> (uninformed guess)
[11:16] <kadaz> It says to Run ntfsfix version 1.13.1 on Linux unless you have Vista.
[11:16] <kadaz> Or Mount the NTFS volume with the 'ro' option in read-only mode.
[11:16] <kadaz> Oh windows 2008, unistalled ! This is before I tried VISTA
[11:16] <kadaz> I Meant after
[11:17] <roryy> windows 2008? are you from the future?
[11:17] <slain> xukun, yes
[11:17] <setog3> ok I get the dvd thx roryy
[11:17] <kadaz> longhorn renamed, they released it a few weeks ago, beta3
[11:17] <logixoul> hm
[11:18] <Kamaitachi> hey guys I discovered a nice konsole feature - I want to share with you, because I was impressed how functional it is.   Think about yourself with an open xterm. Now you start f.e. amarok. you can't use this open xterm-terminal because it gives the output of amaroks failure, aso.   Now try to Hit Ctrl+z; After that type "bg" to send amarok into the background. So easy , so cool ;)
[11:18] <slain> xukun, one can use mencoder
[11:18] <mangaaddict> yay 10 year old with firearm
[11:19] <mangaaddict> ehh sorry
[11:19] <logixoul> Kamaitachi: you could as well use amarok& (but that would still give you the error crap)
[11:19] <maeth> hahaa
[11:19] <mangaaddict> meant to say it in a random channel like lurk or 4chan
[11:19] <Kamaitachi> logixoul : indeed, but if you have forgotten the & . This is useful
[11:19] <logixoul> yup
[11:19] <roryy> Kamaitachi: that would be job-control, a unix feature at least 20 years old :-)
[11:19] <xukun> roryy, I have a lot of aac format of music, and I like to change this to mp3
[11:20] <TheDorneMan> use an encoder from the package manager
[11:20] <Kamaitachi> roryy: I know -hehe. But I did not discover this combination the last 7 years -- *shame on me*
[11:20] <logixoul> heh... everybody's asking roryy for their problems :) you're very helpful roryy.
[11:20] <roryy> xukun: i think someone recommended mencoder to you -- tried that?  I'd probably write a script to do it; don't know any gui tools
[11:20] <kadaz> Get this, in the last month, I went from windows xp > vista > win98 > win2003 > win2008 > unbunto < last OS.  wait I havnt tried, what Unix or windows me or win3.1  or lets try DOS :D
[11:20] <TheDorneMan> i'm a newbie, anyone got some tips for ubuntu:-D
[11:21] <logixoul> xukun: I use SoundKonverter
[11:21] <kadaz> < last os,  wait... lets try winME or DOS :D
[11:21] <Devsense> Hello, I have just performed a new installation of Ubuntu 7.04. After editing the /etc/apt/sources.list file and running "sudo apt-get update", I get the following error:
[11:21] <Devsense> E: Method bzip2 has died unexpectedly!
[11:21] <Devsense> E: Method /usr/lib/apt/methods/bzip2 did not start correctly
[11:21] <gerhard> good morning everyone, I have a slight problem upgrading to 7.04, as my gzip does not accept one file, i guess during md5 check. any helpful ideas how to bypass that check and make the upgrade work?
[11:21] <xukun> logixoul, soundKonverter I will try that
[11:21] <TheDorneMan> to convert from aac to mp3 use SoundKonverter :-!
[11:22] <kadaz> Yes !! THANK +U
[11:22] <logixoul> xukun: it's one of the few thirdparty KDE apps that have a thought-out UI =) pretty neat
[11:23] <slain> I love my mencoder, I written a few scripts for it, it does everything for my, it converts my dvd's to mp4 so that I can play them on my xbox360
[11:23] <gerhard> this message appears during upgrade: Failed to fetch http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/edgy/multiverse/binary-i386/Packages.gz El subproceso gzip devolvi un cdigo de error (1)
[11:23] <slain> mencoder rocks
[11:23] <gerhard> and this appears in console: extracting '/tmp/tmpDNSe4y/feisty.tar.gz'
[11:23] <gerhard> authenticate '/tmp/tmpDNSe4y/feisty.tar.gz' against '/tmp/tmpDNSe4y/feisty.tar.gz.gpg'
[11:23] <xukun> logixoul, I use gnome, that would mean it will install a lot of kde staff
[11:23] <roryy> gerhard: try running 'apt-get update' again
[11:24] <logixoul> xukun: yep, too bad for you
[11:24] <Devsense> Anybody have any ideas on my problem?
[11:24] <gerhard> roryy alright and now?
[11:24] <roryy> gerhard: did it work this time?
[11:24] <gerhard> i try again
[11:24] <haydnc> xukun: are you trying to do the conversion using gnome or kde?
[11:24] <gerhard> i use update-manager -d
[11:25] <xukun> haydnc, gnome
[11:25] <premier_> hello, how do I figure out what program is hogging my apt lock?
[11:25] <premier_> !apt lock
[11:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apt lock - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:25] <premier_> !apt
[11:25] <ubotu> APT is the Advanced Package Tool, which together with dpkg forms the basic Ubuntu package management toolkit. Short apt-get manual: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptGetHowto - Also see !Synaptic (Gnome) or !Adept (KDE)
[11:25] <gerhard> roryy didnt work again
[11:25] <gerhard> roryy: same error, different temp dir
[11:25] <logixoul> premier_: try `sudo dpkg --configure -a`
[11:26] <haydnc> xukun: I've been using a nautilus script that's available in synaptic with some success: nautilus-script-audio-convert. As long as you've got the codecs installed which is easy enough to do it seems to do the job nicely
[11:26] <roryy> gerhard: is there anything in /var/lib/apt/lists/partial
[11:26] <logixoul> premier_: (from http://www.elijahlofgren.com/ubuntu/#fix-package-lock-error)
[11:26] <roryy> gerhard: are you familiar with the command-line ?
[11:26] <gerhard> roryy: a little bit
[11:26] <gerhard> i will use nautilus to look into the dir
[11:26] <roryy> that's fine too
[11:27] <maeth> slain, dude found the problem
[11:27] <premier_> logixoul: that magically didn't fix it
[11:27] <gerhard> roryy: yes there is one file
[11:27] <maeth> slain, but its not about beryl itself
[11:27] <maeth> slain, its just configuration
[11:27] <Guapete> hello
[11:27] <logixoul> premier_: oh.
[11:27] <Devsense> Hello, I have just performed a new installation of Ubuntu 7.04. After editing the /etc/apt/sources.list file and running "sudo apt-get update", I get the following error:
[11:27] <Devsense> E: Method bzip2 has died unexpectedly!
[11:27] <Devsense> E: Method /usr/lib/apt/methods/bzip2 did not start correctly
[11:27] <Devsense> Any ideas anybody on why this may be?
[11:27] <gerhard> roryy: archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_edgy_multiverse_binary-i386_Packages
[11:27] <roryy> gerhard: does it have 'multiverse' in the name?
[11:27] <maeth> slain, can u help me a little?
[11:27] <xukun> haydnc, thanks a lot, but I think I will give soundKonverter a go, I can always reinstall things if I dont like how things look
[11:27] <slain> maeth, what was it that you had to change
[11:27] <gerhard> yes roryy
[11:28] <gerhard> must i delete it?
[11:28] <logixoul> thanks all
[11:28] <roryy> gerhard: erase that file (  sudo rm /var/lib/apt/lists/partial/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_edgy_multiverse_binary-i386_Packages  )
[11:28] <roryy> gerhard: yeah. now try again
[11:28] <Devsense> I thought it might be due to bzip2 not being installed, but apt itself reports that bzip2 is up to date.
[11:28] <maeth> slain, k , it seems that when i set the mouse over a window, the window come to first plane automaticly...
[11:28] <roryy> Devsense: i think you and gerhard are having the same problem
[11:28] <maeth> slain, without clicking it
[11:28] <slain> maeth, oh ok
[11:29] <slain> I must go now, will check you all a little bit later
[11:29] <gerhard> ok i run the update stuff again
[11:29] <maeth> slain, so that makes imposible that a new window appear in first plane if the mouse isnt over the window...
[11:29] <Devsense> From what I can see gerhard has upgraded his installation, mine is a clean install. So I would doubt it is the same issue.
[11:29] <maeth> slain, so , what must i do?
[11:29] <roryy> Devsense: same error message *shrug* you might be right
[11:29] <kadaz> how do I clean up linux, ie downloaded files and tmp/net files
[11:29] <Devsense> It's rather a strange problem, never had it on any version prior to Feisty.
[11:30] <RPD> how do I use my Ricoh Co Ltd R5C822 SD/SDIO/MMC/MS/MSPro Host Adapter ?
[11:30] <Sephnroth> does ubuntu cope with hardware changes pretty well? building new machine but i cant find my geforce, think my friend still has it. should it be ok enough to setup ubuntu now with the onboard video and later just shove the geforce in?
[11:30] <gerhard> Devsense, i think so too, my installation is quite chaotic :)
[11:30] <gerhard> but it seems to work now, thanks roryy
[11:31] <roryy> Devsense: well, you can try the same solution: look in /var/lib/apt/lists/partial for files, erase any if there, and try again
[11:31] <roryy> that is, try 'apt-get update' again
[11:31] <Devsense> There were files there, but even after deleting I encounter the same error.
[11:31] <roryy> hrm
[11:32] <roryy> Devsense: well, previously i've also deleted selected files in /var/lib/apt/lists/     (selected based on what's causing the error) to force apt to redownload them
[11:33] <roryy> Devsense: though usually that was for gpg errors, not bzip2
[11:33] <roryy> in fact, always for gpg errors, iirc
[11:33] <Devsense> Here's the exact error I get: http://pastebin.ca/532971
[11:34] <kadaz> devsense restore your backup .list
[11:34] <Devsense> Where is the backup list stored?
[11:34] <graveson1> why cant i play realmedia video files. Yes,i have installed the restrcited formats from medibuntu
[11:35] <kadaz> is the folder apt install. sec
[11:36] <roryy> Devsense: hmm.  i'm afraid i don't know what else to suggest.  Perhaps there's a temporary problem with the repositories, and you should try 'apt-get update' again in an hour.
[11:37] <maeth> slain, fixed!!!
[11:37] <Devsense> Possibly yes, but I can't quite see how that would output a bzip error message
[11:38] <RPD> how do I install ununtu with no cd-rom drive in the system?
[11:39] <crimsun> RPD: netboot.
[11:39] <RPD> crimsun: hows that supposed to work?
[11:40] <crimsun> RPD: if your network hardware is capable, then it will boot over the network.  You can configure another machine to provide the other machine with the installer info.
[11:41] <Devsense> RPD: This looks like a reasonable netboot tutorial: http://mywheel.net/blog/index.php/ubuntu-network-install/
[11:41] <RPD> thnx
[11:41] <kadaz>  http://www.ubuntulinux.nl/source-o-matic
[11:42] <kadaz> devsense redo your list and just edit your source list again and ur set
[11:43] <Devsense> kadaz: just tried that, failed also.
[11:45] <jenda> Azrael||BRB`afk: indeed it would... however... it ain't :D
[11:45] <baldie> Hi. Is it possible to record "WhatUHear" like you can in Windows? When I try with the Sound Recorder app, I don't really get any input
[11:46] <GeorgeAScott> hi all
[11:46] <kadaz> devsense rm bzip2 and reinstall
[11:48] <GeorgeAScott> the other day i was trying to use dhcp3 to give a local machine an ip and dns info... i was advised that maybe i should set the local machine for static.  so then i guess i wouldn't really need dhcp...
[11:48] <GeorgeAScott> but what would i use for that?  just nat masq?
[11:48] <Devsense> kadaz: what do you mean rm bzip2?
[11:48] <haydnc> baldie: are you trying to record from any specific source? or just being able to record sound and listen to it at the same time in general?
[11:48] <Devsense> Through apt or just generally
[11:49] <baldie> haydnc: I want to record from a flashplayer.. so I want to record the output to the speakers
[11:49] <kadaz> sudo apt-get remove bzip2 or sudo aptitude remove bzip2
[11:49] <RPD> parte off the see the boot options. bye!
[11:49] <Devsense> That also removes file-roller & ubuntu-desktop & ubuntu-minimal
[11:50] <Devsense> Which, from the names of those pseudo packages I would guess is not a good idea.
[11:50] <charles> where do I find my video card info?
[11:50] <kadaz> download it from the net and overwrite existing?
[11:50] <haydnc> baldie: I've never actually tried it, but I do remember seeing a link about an easy way to record sound from an app the other day
[11:50] <baldie> oh?
[11:50] <Devsense> I'll try that yeah, be right back.
[11:50] <haydnc> baldie: it wasn't flash, but let me see if I can find it again
[11:50] <baldie> cool
[11:51] <sx66> where do I find my video card info on ubuntu?
[11:51] <premier_> sx6
[11:52] <premier_> sx66: try lspci and look for something that looks like a video card
[11:52] <sx66> huh premier?
[11:52] <haydnc> baldie: http://porpoisehead.net/hi/?q=node/23   it relates to skype, but at a quick glance the same theory looks like it should work for pretty much anything. Someone else here might have a better suggestion though
[11:52] <soyporti> Hello. i can make AMSN works and my sister is bothering me to much cause now we don't have windows. Does anyone knows please where can i get the missing file TSL module for Linux X-86 ?
[11:52] <premier_> sx66: go into a command line and type "lspci" then press enter
[11:53] <sx66> Section "Screen"
[11:53] <sx66> 	Identifier	"Default Screen"
[11:53] <sx66> 	Device	
[11:53] <baldie> thx haydnc, i'll look at it
[11:53] <sx66> Section "Screen"
[11:53] <sx66> 	Identifier	"Default Screen"
[11:53] <sx66> 	Device		"Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device"

[11:53] <sx66> 	DefaultDepth	24
[11:53] <Devsense> kadaz: unfortunately even that screws up with thousands of compile errors.. probably because I haven't yet installed build-essential (no apt)
[11:53] <sx66> 	SubSection "Display"
[11:53] <sx66> where is the driver for that?
[11:53] <soyporti> No one?
[11:53] <sx66> should I download the nvidia one in add/remove?
[11:54] <premier_> sx66: btw, if you type part of my name, you can press tab and the irc program should complete it for you... if you type my name exactly, I'll get alerted
[11:54] <zeeeee> help - sudo seems to be changing my PATH variable. anybody know how to prevent this from happening? the man pages say it's not supposed to do this.
[11:54] <premier_> sx66: I think you have an integrated intel graphics card
[11:54] <premier_> Intel Corporation 82852/855GM Integrated Graphics Device
[11:54] <sx66> sorry
[11:54] <premier_> sx66: usually the open source drivers for intel cards are just fine
[11:55] <sx66> alright. thanks
[11:55] <premier_> you wouldn't use an nvdia driver
[11:55] <sx66> what?
[11:55] <premier_> sx66: are you trying to install beryl
[11:55] <sx66> nope, just trying to fix my resolution.
[11:55] <kadaz> uhm
[11:55] <Devsense> kadaz: bzip2 is non-removable due to: http://pastebin.ca/533010
[11:55] <jrib> zeeeee: where does it say that?  I think it specifically mentions that it does modify the PATH for security reasons
[11:56] <premier_> sx66: oh, yeah... the best way is to manually edit your xorg.conf file... the problem, is that you might make your computer unusuable.
[11:56] <zeeeee> jrib, it does, but only minimally; it tries to preserve PATH
[11:56] <premier_> sx66: the trick is to save lots of back ups, then if you screw up, just reboot with the ubuntu cd and fix it
[11:56] <sx66> premier, just trying to fix my resolution:    1.
[11:56] <sx66>       Edit your xorg.conf so that it includes the proper HorizSync and VertRefresh values in the "Monitor" section. The values can be found in your monitor's manual, or you can search for them online.
[11:56] <sx66>       sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:56] <sx66>       Mine looks like this:
[11:56] <giany911> guys i need some help .. how can i create a shortcut ? .. i just installed a game: cube2 ... and i dont know how to make a shortcut to it on the desktop

[11:56] <sx66>       EndSection
[11:56] <sx66>    2.
[11:56] <sx66>       Add your resolution to the proper "Display" subsection in the "Screen" section. For instance, if your DefaultDepth is set to 24 (look near the top of the "Screen" section for this), you add your resolution to the subsection with 24 as the Depth value.
[11:57] <sx66>       SubSection "Display"
[11:57] <sx66>         Depth 24
[11:57] <kadaz> devsense  the only thing you did was edit the source.list
[11:57] <zeeeee> this is what i see: http://rafb.net/p/Yszmi137.html
[11:57] <premier_> sx66: okay, well, you ran this computer in windows, right?  What was the max resolution you got with windows?
[11:57] <sx66> back
[11:57] <sx66> it kicked me
[11:57] <zeeeee> jrib, from the man page:
[11:57] <giany911> guys i need some help .. how can i create a shortcut ? .. i just installed a game: cube2 ... and i dont know how to make a shortcut to it on the desktop
[11:57] <zeeeee> "To prevent command spoofing, sudo checks "." and "" (both denoting current directory) last when searching for a command in the user's PATH"
[11:57] <Gunirus> Front
[11:58] <oldude67> sx66: dont flood the channel
[11:58] <premier_> sx66:the problem is that you have to guess the vsync...
[11:58] <wedontneed> hi there was a video on youtube ubuntu has different desktop view with larger icons on the top. Can i do my desktop like that
[11:58] <premier_> sx66: okay, well, you ran this computer in windows, right?  What was the max resolution you got with windows?
[11:58] <sx66> yes...sorry
[11:58] <sx66> nope I had1 280x1024
[11:58] <sx66> 1280x1024*
[11:58] <jrib> zeeeee: the debian/rules file for sudo has: --with-secure-path="/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin"
[11:58] <Devsense> kadaz: Yes, that's all I've done so far on this system. That's why I can't understand this error.
[11:58] <sx66> now I have a lower setting
[11:59] <zeeeee> jrib, there's no way to suppress that?
[11:59] <premier_> sx66: usually ubuntu gives you 1024x800 because they don't want to risk it... kinda annoy, really
[11:59] <sx66> should I download the intel driver?
[11:59] <sx66> Indeed permier
[11:59] <premier_> sx66: well, it should already be installed
[11:59] <kadaz> devsense, does it rm work via synaptic
[11:59] <virusavirusa> can anyone help me with hydra bruteforcer?
[12:00] <sx66> is it unchecked in the add/remove programs, therefor not installed
[12:00] <jrib> zeeeee: I don't know... recompile sudo?
[12:00] <zeeeee> :(
[12:00] <premier_> sx66: could you type "lsmod | grep intel" into a console window?
[12:00] <virusavirusa> can anyone help me with hydra bruteforcer?
[12:00] <virusavirusa> can anyone help me with hydra bruteforcer?
[12:00] <virusavirusa> can anyone help me with hydra bruteforcer?
[12:00] <jrib> !repeat > virusavirusa (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:00] <sx66> yes I can, do you want me to premier?
[12:00] <premier_> sx66: of course
[12:01] <premier_> sx66: and tell me what it says
[12:01] <Devsense> kadaz: noo
[12:01] <Devsense> *no
[12:01] <baldie> haydnc: i got it to work finally. But the gnome-sound-recorder is somewhat flawed. I can record and save it. But if I press "playback" in the sound recorder, just after recording, it doesn't play anything.
[12:01] <premier_> virusavirusa: whats a hydra bruteforcer?
[12:01] <Devsense> Other packages still required for removal according to Synaptic.
[12:01] <baldie> anyways it works :>
[12:01] <sx66> lsmod | grep intel
[12:01] <kadaz> do it via with no gui

 can u tell how to brute routers on 23 port ?
[12:02] <Devsense> kadaz: Nope, doesn't work through any form of apt-get/aptitude/synaptic
[12:03] <kadaz> attack brute force that always work
[12:03] <jrib> zeeeee: well it's 3 commands at most, but it's probably best to leave it as it is for security reasons
[12:03] <kadaz> s
[12:03] <sx66> what?
[12:04] <jrib> virusavirusa: this channel is for ubuntu support, other topics are offtopic
[12:04] <haydnc> baldie: like I said it's not something I've ever tried. presumably if the basic concept works and you can set one program to record from the sound output of another it would be possible to force something like Audacity to record from capture also
[12:04] <premier_> sx66: did you see my private message?
[12:04] <sx66> yes, it wont let me send back, due to unreg user...

[12:06] <Defient> I need to copy it
[12:06] <thandavarayan> Defient: any reason to remove /root/.trash?
[12:06] <jrib> Defient: linux is case-sensitive, .trash is not the same as .Trash
[12:06] <Devsense> cp /root/.Trash/<file> /new/location
[12:06] <kadaz> devsense I see a corruption on bzip2 and it depends on other libs that require gui, I would suggest via command only with no dependecies
[12:06] <baldie> uhm I get a rather poor quality. 3min soundfile is 8MB in wav format? -_- and it obv sounds as crap

[12:07] <parrotbot> ban
[12:07] <jrib> dav7: no bots here please...
[12:07] <haydnc> baldie: that would at least see to it that you were using a slightly more comprehensive piece of audio editing software to do the job
[12:08] <baldie> yea.. but audacity doesn't work, it says in the guide
[12:08] <baldie> gotta do some Google I guess, for an audio app
[12:09] <haydnc> baldie: so it does. I didn't see that... I wonder if there are any other options
[12:09] <Defient> sudo cp /root/.Trash/folder /username/Desktop?????
[12:09] <kadaz> devsense other than that, I dont know
[12:10] <Devsense> Ok, thanks for your help anyway kadaz :)
[12:10] <logixoul> Defient: yes
[12:10] <tondar> hey all
[12:10] <virusavirusa> hey
[12:10] <tondar> what is this command for?
[12:10] <Devsense> I'm asking in a few other channels, if no solution is to be found then I'll run a new install and hope for the best :D
[12:10] <tondar> apt-file
[12:10] <Defient> logixoul: doesnt work
[12:10] <giany911> how can i make a shortcut ? ...
[12:10] <Defient> logixoul: omitting directory?
[12:11] <virusavirusa> guys can u tell me ? how to search packets via apt? what the command is?
[12:11] <Devsense> sudo cp -R <the folder names>
[12:11] <Devsense> the -R is for recursive so it gets all files beneath the directory too
[12:11] <tondar> virusavirusa: apt-get search pack-name
[12:11] <kadaz> question, is it possiable to live cd and boot into a install?
[12:11] <virusavirusa> thx :)
[12:11] <tondar> np
[12:11] <jrib> virusavirusa: apt-cache search term1 term2 ...
[12:11] <jrib> !apt > virusavirusa (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:11] <Defient> Devsense: thanks
[12:11] <tondar> jrib: oopps
[12:11] <tondar> virusavirusa: yeah that

[12:12] <virusavirusa> ok:)
[12:12] <giany911> how can i make a shortcut to a game?  .... i just installed cube2 ... it works but i want a desktop shortcut:D
[12:12] <tondar> apt-file ?? what is this for?
[12:12] <jrib> !apt-file > tondar (see the private message from ubotu)
[12:12] <jiii> giany911: ln -s
[12:12] <baldie> haydnc: I'm looking into Ardour... it's a pro audio thingy supplied with UbuntuStudio
[12:13] <giany911> ln -s ..and  ?
[12:13] <virusavirusa> do you know how to connect on windows machine from ubuntu on Remote Admin program ?
[12:13] <jrib> giany911: what jiii said or create a launcher (right click on your panel -> create launcher, then copy to your desktop)
[12:13] <giany911> jrib i did that .. it doesnt start..
[12:13] <jrib> giany911: what was the command you used?
[12:13] <sx66> I need to fix my resolution, how do i do that, I have installed the nvidia driver, and fixed the conf to Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[12:14] <giany911>  jrib when i clicked create launcher?
[12:14] <jrib> giany911: yeah
[12:14] <tondar> jrib: I could find a package name from its dependencies?
[12:14] <tondar> right?
[12:14] <jrib> tondar: apt-file lets you find packages names from the name of a file that a package contains/installs
[12:14] <Defient> why does nautilus block modification of files in the trash?
[12:14] <giany911> jrib: i browsed for the executable .. /home/giany911/Games/sauerbraten/sauerbraten_unix
[12:14] <tondar> jrib: is that the same as I said?
[12:15] <jrib> giany911: does it work if you put that in a terminal?
[12:15] <jrib> tondar: not really, dependencies are other packages
[12:15] <giany911> jrib: i flashes a windows and closes instantly
[12:15] <giany911> *it
[12:15] <giany911> *and window :D
[12:15] <sx66> I need to fix my resolution, how do i do that, I have installed the nvidia driver, and fixed the conf to Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" it is still a low resoltion
[12:15] <tondar> jrib: then how could I find a package name from its dependencies
[12:15] <tondar> ?
[12:15] <jrib> giany911: so does the game work at all?
[12:15] <tondar> is there a command for it
[12:15] <tondar> ?
[12:15] <virusavirusa> do you know how to connect on windows machine from ubuntu on Remote Admin program ?
[12:15] <giany911> jrib: yes when i launch it from the console it works
[12:16] <jrib> giany911: what command do you use in the console?
[12:16] <michal1> hello, i have such noob problem
[12:16] <michal1> how i can open my asoundrc file ?;p
[12:16] <jrib> tondar: there isn't a unique answer... one package may have several packages that depend on it.  But 'apt-cache rdepends PACKAGE' does what you want
[12:16] <Sephnroth> tip: do not use asda brand (or any supermarket brand..) cds for burning your linux distros.  next time i pay full price for proper branded ones :(
[12:17] <tondar> jrib: thanks
[12:17] <michal1> hm? :P
[12:17] <tatters> I got to build a kitchen, been looking in repos for something to help, teh few CAD proggies I found are to overly complicated for my little brain, anyone know of a simple application in repos or third party thats easy to use?
[12:17] <giany911> jrib: cd games cd sauerbraten ./sauerbraten
[12:17] <michal1> what command to open asoundrc file ?

[12:19] <sx66> how do I fix resolution?
[12:19] <giany911> jrib: cd games cd sauerbraten ./sauerbraten
[12:19] <thandavarayan> sx66: What graphic cards do you have?
[12:19] <giany911> jrib: cd games cd sauerbraten ./sauerbraten_unix  im sorry

[12:20] <sx66> intel giany911
[12:20] <sq89> hi! is there a command to see what keyboad buttons are being pressed in X?
[12:20] <sx66> intel than
[12:20] <ultm8> good morning people
[12:20] <thandavarayan> sx66: for intel cards use the package called 915resolution
[12:20] <giany911> sx66 intel?
[12:20] <sx66> k
[12:20] <ultm8> can any 1 tell me how to uninstall all nvidia drivers?
[12:20] <jrib> giany911: try that as your command:  sh -c 'cd /home/giany911_or_whatever_your_username_is/games/sauerbraten; ./sauerbraten_unix'
[12:21] <thandavarayan> sx66:and then you have to configure according to your resolution.
[12:21] <jrib> sq89: like xev or something else?
[12:21] <michal1__> how i can open my asoundrc config file?
[12:21] <sx66> here do I find that thandav?
[12:21] <sx66> where*
[12:21] <sq89> jrib: yes, that was what I was looking for, thanks :-)
[12:21] <michal1__> how i can open my asoundrc config file?
[12:22] <giany911> jrib: same thing .. console flashes and closes . and as an application it doesnt start at all
[12:22] <thandavarayan> sx66: you can install it through synaptic....
[12:22] <michal1__> how i can open my asoundrc config file?
[12:22] <jrib> giany911: doesn't work in the shell?

[12:23] <michal1> how i can open my asoundrc config file?
[12:24] <michal1> how i can open my asoundrc config file?
[12:24] <jrib> michal1: stop repeating so often please
[12:24] <thandavarayan> sx66: once you open the synaptic....look for the package called 915resolution.
[12:24] <michal1> omg it's lame question
[12:24] <michal1> i want know this
[12:24] <sq89> when pressing my right mouse button, the desktop zooms in. I have compiz installed. does anyone know how to fix that? the system probably thinks I'm pressing some keyboard button, but I can't find which one. in windows I don't have a problem like this, so it's probably something in the software
[12:24] <michal1> just command to open file
[12:24] <michal1> im newb
[12:24] <virusavirusa> shegecit bliad maswavlet ra hackingi:))

[12:24] <giany911> michall: http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/asoundrc.php i dont know if it helps
[12:24] <thandavarayan> sx66: find the package called 915resolution.
[12:25] <sx66> thandav. yes I had installed it, now what?
[12:25] <tondar> whats a good app for viewing pdf files?
[12:25] <sx66> tondar, the one in ubunut
[12:25] <logixoul> KPDF
[12:25] <thandavarayan> sx66: sudo 915resolution -l
[12:25] <sx66> ubuntu*
[12:26] <giany911> jrib: it works thank you very much!
[12:26] <thandavarayan> sx66: does it shows the list of modes and resolutions...
[12:26] <sx66> yes
[12:26] <thandavarayan> sx66: what is your resolution...
[12:26] <sx66> thandav, very low...
[12:26] <sx66> do I select a mode?
[12:27] <thandavarayan> sx66: tell me in dimensions....
[12:27] <sx66> pm...thandav.
[12:27] <tondar> thanks
[12:27] <tondar> ok
[12:27] <sx66> 39 entries thandav
[12:27] <sq89> it seems like ubuntu thinks I've got the windows button pressed constantly. any way to debug this?
[12:28] <thandavarayan> sx66: I meant, your monitor resolution...
[12:28] <thandavarayan> sx66: mine, is 1280x800 and what is yours?
[12:28] <haydnc> baldie: it turns out that Audacity can be made to use ALSA instead of OSS, but it looks like it requires a rebuild and more effort than I'm willing to put in to test it, but Audacity's wiki page mentions it :)
[12:28] <sx66> what is my current resolution thandave it is 1024X768
[12:28] <baldie> ah ok haydnc
[12:29] <baldie> right now i'm started with ardour.. but it aint really easy... requires an app called "jack", and it doesn't really work at all... now I'm gonna reboot
[12:29] <thandavarayan> sx66: Is it your laptop...or? Please, check is it the maximum resolution or...
[12:29] <sx66> is it is a laptop. do I select the mode in the table entries of 39 than?
[12:30] <thandavarayan> sx66: Are you sure it's only 1024x768 or...
[12:30] <sx66> in the screen res. in system >pref
[12:30] <thandavarayan> sx66: that may be wrong...
[12:31] <thandavarayan> sx66: check out your laptop manual....
[12:31] <sx66> in winxp I can go much higher
[12:31] <gucao_> ntu-cn
[12:31] <thandavarayan> sx66: Please, check out your manual...and find the resolution.
[12:32] <sq89> noone? I've got a packard bell easynote laptop, and it thinks I'm constantly pressing the windows ('super') button on the keyboard.
[12:33] <mwe> I'm getting a untrusted package warning trying to install something from universe.
[12:33] <sx66> there are 39 entries for the resolution in the sudo 915resolution -i
[12:33] <techie1> can anybody tell me if I can just download the new Ubuntu 7. something since I have now 6.10 without any major issues?
[12:33] <kwtm> I screwed up apt-get and dpkg somehow by trying to install the Brother printer driver with "sudo dpkg -i <printerdrivername>".  Now any attempt at removal or reinstallation (or installing anything else) gives the message "Package is in a very bad inconsistent state - you should reinstall it before attempting a removal."  I've tried "sudo apt-get -f install" to no avail.  What can I do to try to correct/reset this condition?
[12:34] <mwe> techie1: you can upgrade but that's not what you want?
[12:34] <techie1> Also how do change "fonts" in xchat?
[12:34] <mwe> techie1: settings
[12:34] <sx66> thandavarayan: there are 39 entries in the terminal of the resoltion.
tell me what I want then? Explain further!
[12:35] <ompaul> techie1, right click, settings, preferences and from there you will see it
[12:35] <Nidza> hey sx :)
[12:35] <sx66> thandavarayan: are you there?
[12:35] <sx66> hey Nidza
[12:35] <Nidza> sx66: im codemaster
[12:35] <mwe> techie1: I was asking you ;)
[12:36] <sx66> good, what do I do to fix my resolution
[12:36] <techie1> ok I got my new settings for the xchat fonts.... how about upgrading to 7.02 when 6.10
[12:36] <mwe> !upgrade | techie1
[12:36] <ubotu> techie1: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[12:36] <techie1> mwe.... I hear you. I am very pleased with the 6.10 so far
[12:36] <sx66> Nidza: how do I fix my resolution?
[12:36] <mwe> techie1: yes
[12:36] <Nidza> sx66: have u tried my command?
[12:36] <techie1> mwe. i thought that upgrading to 7.02 would add other needed features.... but I am not sure.
[12:36] <sx66> what was it?
[12:37] <mwe> techie1: It shouldn't
[12:37] <sx66> Nidza: yes i did and it was stupid, and old
[12:37] <mwe> techie1: It should just update your program versions
[12:37] <gerhard> I have another question: in another room there is a win xp computer with an canon ip4200 printer. i cant set it up to be controllable from here although the printer can be found
[12:37] <techie1> mwe.... ok....
[12:37] <Nidza> sx66: hmm :/
[12:37] <mwe> techie1: and kernel etc.
[12:37] <sx66> Nidza: let me send a screen shot in MSN okay?
[12:37] <Nidza> ok wait to log in
[12:38] <sx66> thandavarayan: you left me hanging
[12:38] <ycmarvin> I downloaded directly with java.com and got  jre-1.6.0_01 but I guess i have installed it with the wrong folder..I dunno if it is already in my system, but the folder jre-1.6.0_01 is locked..what should I do
[12:38] <techie1> mwe, I had a whole "fiasco" with home computer with double boot and had to re-install windows xp and lost ubuntu. Just today I have been able to get it all back and of course I had not been able to use Ubuntu. It is interesting how windows gobbled up ubuntu double boot and I had to re-install ubuntu.
[12:38] <storm_> Can I ask aptitude for a list of all the packages I've installed manually (not including packages pulled in as dependencies)?
[12:39] <mwe> techie1: you should have just reinstalled grub ;)
[12:39] <techie1> mwe, of course I had to re-install xchat to be here.
[12:39] <ompaul> techie1, you didnt you could have come here and gotten this information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows
[12:39] <techie1> mwe. I was using gparted
[12:39] <Stringbean> hello
[12:39] <mwe> techie1: if windows renders linux unbootable just reinstall grub. not the entire OS ;)
[12:39] <mwe> techie1: well if you removed the linux partition then ...
[12:40] <techie1> mwe and ompaul I was using Gparted
[12:40] <techie1> and NO, the linux partition is back!
[12:41] <techie1> so basically it was just a reinstalling on the system but all the partitions are there. however I now must remount to see my window files in windows and do not remember how to do that.
[12:41] <techie1> In other words before I was able to see all my documents and files from the windows partition and now I do not have that.
[12:41] <ompaul> !ntfs | techie1
[12:41] <ubotu> techie1: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[12:41] <mwe> APT is warning me that I'm installing an untrusted package, installing something from universe ...
[12:42] <mwe> can you correct that? like adding a key or something?
[12:42] <wols_> mwe: missing pubkey?
[12:42] <techie1> !nfs
[12:42] <ubotu> nfs is the network file system. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo for information on installing and configuring NFS.
[12:42] <sx66> thandavarayan: hello
[12:43] <thandavarayan> sx66: in winxp what the maximum resolution you can get...
[12:43] <sx66> http://i8.tinypic.com/54b4y1j.png
[12:43] <sx66> sorry
[12:44] <sx66> 1280x1024, 32 bits/pixel
[12:44] <thandavarayan> sx66: sorry my network broken
[12:44] <sx66> 1280x1024, 32 bits/pixel
[12:44] <sx66> that is the max I assume
[12:44] <thandavarayan> sx66: Does your resolution is 1280x1024? I mean, does your monitor supports that..
[12:44] <kwtm> techie1: Note that nfs is not the same thing as ntfs.
[12:45] <haydnc> question for anyone who has beryl working with feisty - is it as pretty as it looks / is it worth the effort of getting it up and running?
[12:45] <spikeb> haydnc: it is very pretty, yes.
[12:45] <mwe> wols_: How do I check? It doesn't complain when I install other packages not from universe
[12:45] <thandavarayan> sx66: or...is it your desire to hace that resolution....
[12:45] <sx66> I think so, or about 1024x768, 32 bits/pixel
[12:45] <sx66> I would like to have 1024x768, 32 bits/pixel
[12:46] <techie1> kwtm. thanks.... I have seen the instructions and I will do them eventually when I am more awake. Thanks you all for all the wonderful help. I can always count on this channel. Will be back later.
[12:46] <techie1> bye for now.
[12:46] <sx66> no I want to have 1280, nvm
[12:46] <wols_> mwe: you start with telling us the exact message
[12:46] <thandavarayan> sx66: Okay...if you want to have 1024x768 32 bits/pixel...you have to do two things...
[12:46] <wols_> mwe: and the command line you used
[12:46] <virusavirusa> noow...
[12:46] <virusavirusa> can you tell me
[12:46] <virusavirusa> how to install ubuntu 7.04
[12:47] <mwe> wols_: aptitude install rssh
[12:47] <virusavirusa> for server ?
[12:47] <thandavarayan> sx66: sudo gedit /etc/default/915resolution
[12:47] <mwe> wols_: WARNING: untrusted versions of the following packages will be installed! rssh
[12:47] <Andeh> Hello. Is there a Usenet client for ubuntu? Not one that gets the newsfeeds but can download files
[12:47] <wols_> mwe: sounds like a missing pubkey for the repo
[12:47] <foxteck> hey, how do i get the path to a process executable with the PID?

[12:50] <thandavarayan> sx66: wait...then you have to set the XRes and YRes
[12:50] <thandavarayan> sx66: and Bits=32
[12:50] <thandavarayan> sx66: First try 1024 for XRes and 768 for YRes...
[12:51] <thandavarayan> sx66: let us see if it works or not...

[12:52] <virusavirusa> who uses here hydra?
[12:52] <sx66> thandavarayan: so i remove the auto and make the xreso=to 1280 and the yreso to 1024
[12:52] <virusavirusa> who uses here hydra?
[12:52] <cox377> what does serverload of 4.40 indicate?

[12:53] <wols_> gerhard: make a symlink from your usb drive to /var/www/<subdir>
[12:53] <TheDorneMan> =-O durrrrrrrrr!
[12:53] <mwe> TheDorneMan: looking for the door?
[12:53] <thandavarayan> sx66: Did you complete the configuration?
[12:53] <gerhard> wols_ how do i create a symlink? i never did
[12:53] <TheDorneMan> no
[12:53] <TheDorneMan> see ya
[12:53] <wols_> gerhard: if you really want to change /var/www/ to something else (not advised), edit /etc/apache2
[12:53] <mwe> TheDorneMan: don't do that then
 i wanna break mails
[12:54] <wols_> gerhard: man ln.
[12:54] <sx66> I am saving
[12:54] <gerhard> wols_ i think the symlink idea is much better
[12:54] <thandavarayan> sx66: Final step is sudo /etc/init.d/915resolution start
[12:54] <gerhard> like that: ln /media/usbdisk /var/www/usbdisk ?
[12:55] <sx66> it has been configured, now what?
[12:55] <virusavirusa> fuck
[12:55] <virusavirusa> :((
[12:55] <wols_> gerhard: ln -s. otherwise it's a hardlink, not a symlink
[12:55] <gerhard> oh ok
[12:56] <sx66> thandavarayan: it is configured, now what?
[12:57] <mwe> wols_: So, do you know what's up with the untrusted warning I get?
[12:57] <gerhard> wols_ great, i am surprised how easy such things are :-) you just have to know how^^
[12:57] <sx66> thandavarayan: you there?
[12:57] <gerhard> thx
[12:57] <wols_> mwe: not really, sorry
[12:57] <haydnc> has anyone tried getting thunderbird to work with a microsoft exchange server if the only way to access the exchange server (that I'm aware of) is via a webmail interface

[01:13] <SatanGolga> Hi, i get 'Segmentation fault (core dumped) when trying to run apt-get install, how can one solve that?
[01:14] <thandavarayan__> sx66_: did you use /etc/init.d/915resolution start
[01:14] <sx66_> thandavarayan__: yes I did
[01:15] <thandavarayan__> sx66_: I am not sure does dell laptops provide a resolution of 1280x1024...may I know which series is yours....
[01:15] <yomm> Hi all !
[01:15] <sx66_> 710m

[01:19] <sx66_> thanks
[01:21] <thandavarayan__> sx66_: but...I could not able to find the maximum resolution...
[01:22] <HolyGoat> Man. Azureus has issues.
[01:22] <thandavarayan__> sx66_: yes I got it...its 1280 x 800
[01:23] <thandavarayan__> Please re-edit /etc/default/915resolution and change XRes=1280 and YRes=800
[01:23] <Cookiecutter> i know i am in the wrong section but im trying to install beryl and i get dpkg was interupeted have to do it manually, and when i type what it says to type it doesnt fix anything..
[01:23] <thandavarayan__> and check: /etc/X11/xorg.conf that you have same resolution...
[01:23] <adnan> hi
[01:23] <adnan> please
[01:23] <adnan> another quick question
[01:24] <adnan> if I create a /tmp/ partition
[01:24] <adnan> lets say
[01:24] <adnan> 2GB
[01:24] <adnan> and the other standard ones
[01:24] <adnan> -/boot
[01:24] <adnan> -/
[01:24] <adnan> -/swap
[01:25] <adnan> and including -/tmp
[01:25] <Cookiecutter> hope someone can help me
[01:25] <adnan> does that actually mean that the /tmp folder is actually the /tmp partition
[01:26] <Enselic__> adnan: if you mount it, yes
[01:26] <SomeKindOfMonste> wat the lightweight html editor in xubuntu?
[01:26] <adnan> I read a tutorial how to create those partitions but much is not explained why create the other ones
[01:26] <adnan> one why I need -/, -/boot, -/swap
[01:26] <adnan> etc
[01:26] <SomeKindOfMonste> !html
[01:26] <ubotu> html is HyperText Markup Language, used to build webpages. Editors in Ubuntu: Bluefish, Quanta+, Screem, and Nvu. For howto on HTML coding, see: http://www.w3schools.com
[01:27] <adnan> enselic
[01:27] <sx66> my bad, sorry for disconnect
[01:27] <adnan> do you know it
[01:27] <Enselic__> adnan: some want /boot to be first on the harddrive (physically) because of some BIOS limitation that were old
[01:27] <sx66> thandavarayan__: what's up?
[01:27] <minisrule192> hello
[01:27] <adnan> well thats what i have
[01:27] <biojk> is there a list of graphics cards wich ubuntu supports, as my voodoo3 only gets 800*600 resolution
[01:27] <Enselic__> adnan: you might also want to partion if you want many distros to share the same data
[01:27] <thandavarayan__> sx66: I found the resolution..its 1280 x 800
[01:27] <SomeKindOfMonste> damn, xubuntu has none of them
[01:27] <sx66> so, set that to it?
[01:27] <adnan> ok
[01:28] <adnan> i know that but that isn't the case
[01:28] <Enselic__> adnan: there is no use having partitinos for the use of having partitions. I only have a swap partition, then / on a single one
[01:28] <minisrule192> does anybody know how to get the dlink dwl-g122 working in ubuntu?
[01:28] <adnan> I want to separate them
[01:28] <thandavarayan__> sx66: You have to re-edit /etc/default/915resolution and set XRes=1280 and YRes=800
[01:28] <SatanGolga> Hi, i get 'Segmentation fault (core dumped) when trying to run apt-get install, how can one solve that? i've tried rebooting, upgrade, update, removing *.bin in /var/cache/apt/
[01:28] <Enselic__> no wait, I might have /home on a dedicated partiion
[01:28] <adnan> well yea
[01:28] <thandavarayan__> sx66: After that you have edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to see you have the same resolution
[01:28] <adnan> you keep your data away from other junk I would say enselic
[01:28] <Enselic__> adnan: partition depends on you needs, ifyou have no need, don't partition
[01:29] <minisrule192> I need help setting up my usb wireless adaptor
[01:29] <adnan> I need to keep junk away
[01:29] <adnan> lets say
[01:29] <adnan> and personal stuff
[01:29] <Enselic__> adnan: define junk
[01:29] <adnan> like win junk
[01:29] <kadaz> I am unable to see my ntfs drive now? how can I access this drive again
[01:29] <adnan> little programs that I want to get rid off that potentially could be headaches
[01:29] <Enselic__> adnan: well you obviosuly need windows on a separate partition...
[01:29] <thandavarayan__> sx66: Do you got that?
[01:29] <adnan> after I run them
[01:29] <Enselic__> adnan: you typically let apt handle that
[01:30] <Enselic__> adnan: just because you partition stuff doesn't mean they don't get filled with junk, actually, it doesn't matter
[01:30] <adnan> so are we still saying that -/tmp is the same partition if I have create it as my -/tmp folder
[01:30] <Enselic__> besides, I find it hard to gather junk on my ubuntu system
[01:31] <adnan> well just running it now
[01:31] <adnan> on my staellite
[01:31] <adnan> like it alot
[01:31] <adnan> but used linux in the early days in school
[01:31] <adnan> need it again
[01:31] <sx66> thandavarayan__: yes I just saved it
[01:31] <Enselic__> adnan: I'm a bit confused that you mention tmp as -/tmp
[01:31] <kadaz> did devsense get his apt-updateall working?
[01:31] <Enselic__> adnan: you you mean /tmp or /var/tmp?
[01:32] <sx66> thandavarayan__: yes I just saved it, now what?
[01:32] <thandavarayan__> sx66: edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf and scroll to bottom...you will see the resolution...please check does you have same resolution...
[01:32] <adnan> I mean as /tmp
[01:32] <sx66> k
[01:32] <adnan> root - then /tmp
[01:32] <Drazgo> sup guys
[01:32] <Enselic__> adnan: unless you intend to do something special with /tmp, there is no use having /tmp on a separate partitio
[01:33] <Drazgo> got a question concerning ubuntustudio
[01:33] <thandavarayan__> sx66: in /etc/X11/xorg.conf under the Section "Screen" ... check for resolution.
[01:33] <sx66> thandavarayan__: I have edited them to "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" so I can most of resolution
[01:33] <adnan> so, are you saying that /tmp is actually the partition since I have create it already
[01:34] <adnan> kind of keeps the junk programs away from my real files
[01:34] <adnan> etc...
[01:34] <thandavarayan__> sx66: but 1280x800 is missing...you add to that...for all bit levels
[01:34] <adnan> thats what I wanted to do
[01:34] <sx66> Okay.
[01:35] <__Dan> r
[01:35] <sx66> thandavarayan__: I just saved it, what is next?
[01:35] <Enselic__> adnan: well stuff on /tmp won't affect stuff in /usr even if they are on the same partition
[01:36] <Danzor> I'm having trouble with xserver. I keep getting "no devices detected" when I try to start xserver
[01:36] <Enselic__> adnan: not in such a way you should bother at least, unless you do something special with your machine, like having it as a server
[01:36] <Danzor> I'm not sure what exactly has gone wrong in the config file
[01:36] <thandavarayan__> sx66:  before that...you can remove other resolutions in /etc/X11/xorg.conf .... then restart the gdm.
[01:36] <zpfr> I am connected using shh to remote server - how do I copy dir from my local computer to the server? the command line is now /bash with the remote
[01:36] <adnan> what happens in that case
[01:36] <Danzor> I've definately defined a device, monitor and screen
[01:36] <adnan> enselic
[01:36] <sx66> okay, how do I restart the gdm?
[01:37] <adnan> if I have it as apache
[01:37] <thandavarayan__> sx66: Ctrl+Alt+Backspace....your screen will vanish...
[01:37] <sx66> Okay, let's try it.
[01:37] <Enselic__> adnan: hmm nothing probably
[01:38] <adnan> and can you run apache on ubuntu
[01:38] <Enselic__> adnan: yes
[01:38] <adnan> I have to see how I can play with that
[01:38] <adnan> but tx for your help
[01:38] <adnan> I have to see what purpose my /tmp serves now
[01:38] <adnan> hehe
[01:38] <adnan> tx enselic
[01:39] <Enselic__> adnan: np, I liked talking to you
[01:39] <adnan> likewise
[01:44] <Zmax_> I just installed Ubuntu 7.
[01:45] <Gwall> hey i got a problem
[01:45] <Gwall> when i install ubuntu
[01:45] <Gwall> after step 7
[01:45] <Gwall> at 15% installed it freeze's
[01:45] <Gwall> anyone know why ?
[01:45] <battlesquid> if firestarter is not working, is my workstation left open for attacks? i'm having trouble with firestarter in edgy
[01:46] <thandavarayan__> Gwall: May I know the name of your machine...
[01:46] <spikeb> not really battlesquid - by default i dont think there are any ports that listen externally
[01:47] <Gwall> know the name thandavarayan__ ?
[01:47] <Gwall> oh what make
[01:47] <battlesquid> spikeb, i see, but i'm running some services
[01:47] <thandavarayan__> Gwall: give details about your computer...pleaes
[01:47] <Gwall> uhm
[01:47] <Gwall> hi-grade
[01:47] <Gwall> i just partioned it so i lost windows
[01:47] <Gwall> which i wanted to
[01:47] <battlesquid> spikeb, though i suppose those would be open anyway in order to be used.. so then what's the point of using a firewall?
[01:48] <Gwall> uhm 40 gb hard drive
[01:48] <Gwall> 256mb ram LOL
[01:48] <sx66> thandavarayan__: it worked, thank you. however, my desktop effects stopped working, how do I re-enable that?
[01:48] <battlesquid> Gwall, one disk? sata?
[01:48] <spikeb> battlesquid: if one's OS isn't retarded out of the box, i dont think there is a point - which is probably why ubuntu doesnt have firestarter or some such installed by default :)
[01:48] <battlesquid> Gwall, what is step 7 about?
[01:48] <Gwall> erm what you meen battlesquid
[01:48] <spikeb> Gwall: how long did it freeze for?
[01:48] <thandavarayan__> sx66: Do you get the same resolutions which you got in windows...
[01:49] <Gwall> about 30mins spikeb
[01:49] <spikeb> hmm
[01:49] <Gwall> and i could hear the cd rom drive working no more
[01:49] <Frogzoo> spikeb: iptables is there, you need to configure it
[01:49] <Gwall> and the mouse wouldnt move
[01:49] <sx66> thandavarayan__: unknown I havent booted into windows for 7days
[01:49] <thandavarayan__> sx66: Do you see the better resolution then before...or...
[01:50] <sx66> yes. mucho, but the desktop effects are gone, I do not have the wiggle and stuff of the widow
[01:50] <battlesquid> spikeb, oh thanks for clearing that up for me! i always just thought "to be on the safe side, right" about firewall... but i see you make a valid point
[01:50] <sx66> window*
[01:50] <hounited1> erm why do i see older version of ubuntu on the grub bootloader even after i upgraded to a new version?
[01:50] <spikeb> Gwall: tried installing using the alternate cd?
[01:50] <Gwall> nope
[01:50] <Gwall> should i download ?
[01:50] <thandavarayan__> sx66: for desktop effects there is not connection to what we have done now...
[01:51] <hounited1> anyone to help me out
[01:51] <hounited1> ?
[01:51] <spikeb> Gwall: i would, and see if that will go all the way to the finish of the install
[01:51] <sx66> I wonder if i had broke it when I had installed the nvidia driver, then unstalled it
[01:51] <battlesquid> hounited1, it is to be able to start ubuntu using an onlder kernel version in case something goes wrong.
[01:51] <hounited1> erm..help her epls
[01:51] <michael> Hi All, when in ssh I press RH or LH keys I get ^[[C ^[[D instead of moving the cursor - also tab autocompletion does not work.  Can you please tell me how to fix this?  It is driving me insane!
[01:51] <thandavarayan__> sx66: You just added 1280x800 into xorg.conf right...or did you edit some more..

[01:52] <sx66> I just added that thandavarayan__
[01:52] <battlesquid> hounited1, i just told you
[01:52] <shane_> is there a way to get 32-bit Ubuntu to see al 4 GB of my RAM?
[01:52] <thandavarayan__> sx66: hey, you have only intel cards...how do you use nvidia driver for that..
[01:52] <ggg333> Hi all..... what would you suggest for a (OSS)vpn client on linux
[01:52] <sx66> I did not know that before hand...(7days ago) thandavarayan__
[01:53] <spikeb> shane_: i thought 32bit could read up to 4GB...
[01:53] <hounited1> no as in i upgraded my ubuntu but i can still see the older version on my bootloader?why is it so?
[01:53] <michael> when in ssh I press RH or LH keys I get ^[[C ^[[D instead of moving the cursor - also tab autocompletion does not work.  Can you please tell me how to fix this?
[01:53] <thandavarayan__> sx66: okay...do not install anything like that...
[01:53] <mc44> hounited1: what do you mean by older version
[01:53] <thirdy_> wats the command to register my nick?
[01:53] <shane_> spikeb, I know that WinXP only "sees" 3.~" GB
[01:53] <hounited1> as in i am now using 6.10
[01:53] <sx66> alright I am going to bed, it is 453 am here and I have to go to work in 4 hours
[01:53] <thandavarayan__> sx66: why don't your desktop effects stop working now....what does it say?
[01:53] <Gwall> ok spikeb
[01:53] <sx66> lol
[01:53] <hounited1> but on my bootloader, i see 6.04
[01:53] <mc44> thirdy_: /nickserv register password
[01:53] <Gwall> shall i just leave it running all day
[01:53] <hounited1> as
[01:53] <battlesquid> what command lists running services?
[01:53] <spikeb> werid
[01:53] <Gwall> and try tonight
[01:53] <shane_> spikeb, and also, all the 32-bit ones I have used so far see 3.2 to 3.6 GB
[01:53] <sx66> thandavarayan__: can not enable
[01:53] <Gwall> ?
[01:53] <thandavarayan__> sx66: good night
[01:54] <michael> when in ssh I press RH or LH keys I get ^[[C ^[[D instead of moving the cursor - also tab autocompletion does not work.  Can you please tell me how to fix this?
[01:54] <sx66> thandavarayan__: let's fingure this out
[01:54] <spikeb> shane_: that's strange. then again, i have never had that much ram, so i dunno
[01:54] <aricz> battlesquid : ps aux
[01:54] <spikeb> Gwall: good luck!
[01:54] <mc44> hounited1: well, there isn't a 6.04, but anyway, does that one boot?
[01:54] <thandavarayan__> sx66: now or later...
[01:54] <sx66> thandavarayan__: how long do you think it will take?
[01:54] <battlesquid> aricz, nope that lists all running /processes/
[01:54] <Gwall> thanks spikeb
[01:54] <ccttvv> hi guys: am totally new to ubuntu, i just installed the ubuntu server 7.05, takes me to the command prompt and now i don't know where to start, is there a GUI for server edition?
[01:54] <Gwall> appreciate it mate :)
[01:54] <aricz> oh..
[01:54] <ggg333> I have ubuntu 7  I would like to know the best vpnclient that I can use?
[01:54] <ccttvv> i want to run it as a web server, file server.
[01:54] <spikeb> Gwall: :)
[01:54] <hounited1> i ahven tried that though..is there anyway to remove that?
[01:54] <ggg333> can any one suggest me on this... :)
[01:54] <thandavarayan__> sx66: don't really know...what went wrong....
[01:55] <spikeb> hmm
[01:55] <battlesquid> what command lists running services? like apache, sshd, xinetd, and so on.
[01:55] <sx66> thandavarayan__: alright I am going to bed.
[01:55] <mc44> hounited1: how did you update to the newer version? you installed by disk or upgraded?
[01:55] <sx66> thandavarayan__: thank you for your support
[01:55] <hounited1> i upgraded
[01:56] <mc44> hounited1: its probably just the old kernel still installed, I wouldn't worry about it
[01:56] <user_> euhm, hi@all -.-
[01:56] <MrC> hi wazzup in here ?fellas
[01:56] <hounited1> so just leave it alone?
[01:57] <mc44> hounited1: unless it causes you problems its not worth worrying about :)
[01:57] <neil_feisty> battlesquid: you can try ps -e
[01:57] <hounited1> ok thx for your help
[01:57] <thandavarayan__> sx66: may take some times I guess...
[01:57] <ccttvv> hi guys, does the server edition contains a GUI? thanks
[01:57] <battlesquid> neil_feisty, you mistake services for processes
[01:58] <MrC> I was wondering does Linux is wildly used by female public as well?Or just us male
[01:58] <battlesquid> MrC, my girlfriend is crazy about ubuntu!
[01:58] <mc44> MrC: lots of women use linux
[01:59] <sq89> hi! what's the name of the default font in xterm? can I use it in gnome-terminal?
[01:59] <mc44> ccttvv: if you want a gui you might as well use the ubuntu desktop rather than server edition
[01:59] <Kilty> Hi guys I've just installed a secondary HD to my workstation, I'm going to be using to backup my home directory, is there an easy command line tool to do this automatically ?
[01:59] <MrC> is it there a girly or girly friendly distro,i am looking for a use to use distro to my wife ,she is more then a noob with pc
[01:59] <neil_feisty> ccttvv: no gui in server edition
[01:59] <SatanGolga> Hi, i get 'Segmentation fault (core dumped) when trying to run apt-get install, how can one solve that?
[01:59] <ccttvv> thank you
[01:59] <mc44> MrC: ubuntu is equally friendly to all genders
[02:00] <SatanGolga> when it works...
[02:00] <spikeb> egads.
[02:00] <neil_feisty> battlesquid: is this the desktop or server ed
[02:00] <spikeb> that is definitely a horrible sign of bad things SatanGolga
[02:00] <SatanGolga> hehe
[02:01] <klrtmto> Hello Humans! Would someone be nice enough to tell me the command to format a huge (235Gig+) FAT32 Partition on an external drive?
[02:01] <battlesquid> neil_feisty, never mind :)
[02:01] <big_bang14> i want to start learning c properly, are there any good video tutorials for this that use open source ides?
[02:01] <MrC> Try GParted klrmto
[02:02] <user_> euhm, whats most popular irc channel out there n1? thx :)
[02:02] <jrib> big_bang14: you may want to try ##c
[02:02] <klrtmto> I'm using QTParted, and with that I created the partition (actually resized the 500G NTFS one down to 250) but it won't format
[02:02] <MrC> but you need to be a a intermadiate with Linux otherwise you will destroy with you HD,like a did with my 4 GB USB stick
[02:02] <big_bang14> what is ##c? a language?
[02:02] <NewToUbuntu> Hi, I can't get sound working on my PC. I have an Creative Audigy sound card (which I am trying to use and on board sound also. I did lspci and can see my sounds card. Just  no sound. What else should I check?
[02:02] <klrtmto> id gparted better?
[02:03] <jrib> big_bang14: it's a channel, type:  /join ##c
[02:03] <Enselic__> big_bang14: ##c is a channel where they talk C
[02:03] <big_bang14> aaah
[02:03] <MrC> I think it is easier to format with Windows
[02:04] <MrC> then with Linux
[02:04] <MrC> i'm still trying to figure out how to format on linux
[02:04] <klrtmto> aah that's my problem. windows xp (which I dual boot) will only format it as NTFS. I gotta have FAT32 so linux can write to it as well.
[02:05] <logixoul> MrC, you could try qtparted
[02:05] <Danzor> Is it possble to use Beryl with the fglrx drivers?
[02:05] <sx66> crap
[02:06] <mc44> Danzor: yes, you need xgl though
[02:06] <Danzor> ok
[02:06] <Danzor> thanks
[02:07] <aspro> klrtmto, FAT32 can't go that large IIRC
[02:07] <aspro> thats why windows won't format it
[02:07] <Danzor> fglrx drivers are accelerated aren't they?
[02:08] <mc44> Danzor: yes
[02:08] <klrtmto> I've been reading on the internet about a 32Gig limitation, but that limitation is (supposed to be) in winXP only
[02:08] <Sonderblade> how do i check which package owns a local file, i.e: what installed /bin/ls?
[02:08] <bORINHO`> why does ubuntu have more than 1000 users?
[02:08] <mc44> bORINHO`: because there are lots of ubuntu users
[02:08] <Luxurious> Because it's a popular distro.
[02:08] <klrtmto> the info said to use a win98 disk and boot from it... then format. cause MS didn't have the restriction in place back then
[02:08] <tokj> uhm, because is popular
[02:08] <mc44> Sonderblade: apt-file
[02:09] <idefix> are you sure you are resting on this day? what you are discussing here looks suspiciously much like work..
[02:09] <Luxurious> I was wondering, do you guys know how to figure out what's the maximum size hard drive your computer can take?
[02:09] <michael> to <klrtmto>  you can use fdisk or parted to delete the partitions/partition table, create new partitions and then use mkfs <type> to format it - what do you want to format it with?
[02:09] <Sonderblade> mc44: i dont think that works
[02:09] <michael> when in ssh I press RH or LH keys I get ^[[C ^[[D instead of moving the cursor - also tab autocompletion does not work.  Can you please tell me how to fix this?
[02:09] <aspro> klrtmto, heh, you are right, learn something new everyday :)
[02:10] <ggg333> can any one suggest me a oss free vpn client
[02:10] <Luxurious> I have this old computer, and I'd like to put a more recent hard drive in it with more capacity, I'm just not sure how big a drive I can buy in order for the computer to handle it.
[02:10] <michael> Someone pls?!  "when in ssh I press RH or LH keys I get ^[[C ^[[D instead of moving the cursor - also tab autocompletion does not work.  Can you please tell me how to fix this?"
[02:10] <klrtmto> michael: Thank you. I've used qtparted to create the partition, just when i try to format it... qtparted tries, and fails.
[02:10] <Luxurious> klrtmto: Are you running as root on knoppix
[02:10] <Luxurious> ?
[02:11] <michael> qtparted can be buggy . . . try the command line - what do you want to format it with?
[02:11] <klrtmto> Luxurious: no. At the moment... I'm running as klrtmto on MEPIS 6.5.02... why?
[02:11] <Luxurious> klrtmto: Sorry, nevermind the knoppix part.  Are you running as root when you do that?
[02:11] <Luxurious> klrtmto: Well it's important that you do it as root.
[02:11] <Nate-> so how can i install ubuntu onto my desktop computer so that i can dual boot ?
[02:11] <klrtmto> yes... I'm using qtparted... as root
[02:12] <Luxurious> klrtmto: I think you might possibly have to unmount the drive if it's mounted
[02:12] <Danzor> Ugh, I just rebooted and it's stuck right before the logon screen... All I see is the "busy" cursor and a slightly-greyed out screen
[02:12] <ziroday> !install | Nate-
[02:12] <ubotu> Nate-: Ubuntu can be installed in lots of ways. Please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation for documentation. Problems during install? See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/CommonProblemsInstall and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DapperReleaseNotes/UbiquityKnownIssues - See also !automate
[02:12] <klrtmto> qtparted created the partition just fine... (it was un-mounted) but it won't format it.
[02:12] <Luxurious> !dualboot
[02:12] <ubotu> Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[02:12] <NewToUbuntu> Luxurious - you need to check your motherboard manual that will tell you what harddisks are supported
[02:12] <Nate-> eh ?
[02:12] <Danzor> I can't find out what seems to have gone wrong with xserver
[02:12] <Nate-> i see
[02:12] <Wesley|> hi
[02:12] <klrtmto> I am going to try the mkfs command as well.....
[02:13] <Luxurious> NewToUbuntu: Okay, so I open it up, try and see some identifier on the motherboard and look it up online? Or is there an easier way?
[02:13] <user_> can i also ask Ubuntu philosophy related questions here? :)
[02:13] <Wesley|> i would like to know if it is possibly to instal the fglrx 8.28.8 under feisty, i found one tutorial for this till now and it whont help me
[02:13] <Luxurious> user_: You might as well try it.
[02:14] <klrtmto> Thank you michael and everyone else who helped me...
[02:14] <IdleOne> user_, #ubuntu-offtopic for non-support related questions
[02:14] <Luxurious> user_: Worst-case scenario, a crazy axe killer will chop off your head.
 you may need to reboot the kernel so that it reads the new partition table
[02:14] <sx66> my 915 resolution has not been configured, how do i configure it...
[02:14] <mc44> Wesley|: why that version?
[02:14] <michael> bye now
[02:14] <Wesley|> because none other supports radeon 9250
[02:14] <user_> Luxurious: ;)
[02:15] <user_> IdleOne: okay
[02:15] <klrtmto> michael: do i still need to reboot if I show that there is a partition there?
[02:15] <bORINHO`> would you recommend ubuntu for a dedicated server?
[02:15] <X-Tream|> :O
[02:15] <X-Tream|> what server bORINHO`?
[02:15] <Luxurious> bORINHO`: Depends on what you're planning to use it for.
[02:16] <bORINHO`> game servers mostly
[02:16] <bORINHO`> irc sessions bnc
[02:16] <ziroday> bORINHO`: this is a ubuntu channel so of course
[02:16] <X-Tream|> lol
[02:16] <Azrael||BRB> heya guys
[02:16] <NewToUbuntu> Luxurious, when you first boot the first screen will give you a long string of writing - it will probably say AmericanTrends (or something like) and then number and letters. Type that into google
[02:16] <Luxurious> bORINHO`: Hehe, Ubuntu should work for that.  I've been very happy with FreeBSD in that division though (serving stuff).
[02:16] <bORINHO`> dunno maybe its better as a home system
[02:16] <NewToUbuntu> Its the very first screen, when your pc POSTs
[02:17] <Luxurious> NewToUbuntu: Oh, thanks a bunch man!
[02:17] <sx66> my 915 resolution has not been configured, how do i configure it...
[02:17] <Azrael---> Hey guys, does anybody here know how to make themes for GNOME?
[02:17] <Azrael---> any program I should dl?
[02:17] <thirdy_> all, http://main.thirdy.freehostia.com/Thirdy%20likes%20linux.html
[02:17] <Wesley|> i found an tutorial till now for making rhe .run pacjkeges to deb packages, but changing that with feisty is only supportet since 8.35 wich driver i cant use since this driver whont support radeon 9250, as far as i know the 8.28.8 driver should work for my card
[02:17] <X-Tream|> gimp
[02:17] <bORINHO`> i d love to see a pro and cons of all linux distributions there in one tidy resume :)
[02:18] <sc0tch> Is there a website link that shows what has changed when a new update to a package (like linux-image/headers/libc,etc...) is shown to be available?
[02:18] <NewToUbuntu> anyone know how to enable sound. I have just installed Ubuntu, my card is recognised when I do lspci but no sounded. Tried it as root as well but that dosent work either
[02:18] <ziroday> NewToUbuntu: this may sound stupid but have you checked all volume levels
[02:19] <ziroday> NewToUbuntu: waht card and do you have a toshiba?
[02:19] <NewToUbuntu> yup I've set PCM to full volume and line-in on the volume controler
[02:20] <dcfly> i need help with my screen resolution, please.
[02:20] <Nate-> i ordered ubuntu CD's off their site, will they actually send them to me?
[02:20] <Sirrush> yeah
[02:20] <Nate-> awesome
[02:20] <Azrael---> Nate-, yes, but it'll take a while.
[02:20] <Nate-> do they send them out to any country?
[02:20] <Nate-> I am in Australia
[02:20] <Azrael---> iirc, yes.
[02:20] <Nate-> How long do you estimate Azrael--- ?
[02:21] <Azrael---> I think it took about 6 weeks for mine.
[02:21] <c0dy> Hi everyone. Did anyone of you ever come across the following error message? "BUG: soft lockup detected on CPU#0!"
[02:21] <Azrael---> Edgy had already came out by the time I got my dapper CDs :D
[02:21] <c0dy> It comes up everytime I use my new PCMCIA wireless card...
[02:21] <c0dy> And completely freezes Ubuntu.
[02:21] <idefix> did you hear about the complicated calculations made with supercomputers about the movements of stars and planets using a graphical card GeForce8800?
[02:22] <Azrael---> no.
[02:22] <Azrael---> tell us more.
[02:22] <Wooksta> my ubuntu fiesty fawn server keeps resetting just after it gets past grub (i get a "Startup up..." message and then the system resets).. I have tried re-isntalling several times & have also tried other distros which don't seem to have this problem, can anyone help save my fawn? :<
[02:23] <Azrael---> does that happen in recovery mode too?
[02:23] <c0dy> Sorry, Azrael---, were you talking to me?
[02:23] <Azrael---> no.
[02:23] <Azrael---> :D
[02:23] <X-Tream|> ^^
[02:24] <c0dy> Haha, ok.
[02:24] <X-Tream|> noone talks to you ;P
[02:24] <dcfly> i'm trying to get 1600x1200 screen resolution but it's not available from the screen resolution utility. before i installed the radeon drivers, i could select it but the display was corrupted.
[02:24] <Wooksta> Azrael, if that was me then yes :P
[02:24] <idefix> Azrael, the coordinations of the start and planets are translated to the R-G-B colors
[02:24] <idefix> ehh coordinates
[02:24] <Azrael---> it was, wooksta.
[02:24] <Azrael---> oic, idefix.

[02:24] <yharrow> how do i copy paste large amounts of text and give ppl a link to it?
[02:24] <Wooksta> yup it resets on both "safe mode" and normal boot
[02:24] <Gwall> spikeb
[02:24] <Azrael---> dcfly, have you tried 'sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg'?
[02:24] <yharrow> instead of putting it in irc
[02:24] <ziroday> deos anyone know a channel where i can get help with amarok?
[02:24] <Jupp3> Maybe I'll just check drivers for older models through to see if I can get the current one working somehow
[02:24] <Gwall> its been on 15% for 1 hour now
[02:25] <idefix> other quantities like mass, speed and acceleartion can be put in the textures
[02:25] <spikeb> Gwall: ick
[02:25] <Wesley|> is someone here to help me with the problem that i cant install the 8.28.8 fglrx driver under feisty? would be a real help for me^^
[02:25] <spikeb> Gwall: no luck then
[02:25] <dcfly> az - no, i haven't done that - i'm new to linux
[02:25] <Gwall> nope :(
[02:25] <yharrow> threes a website for it
[02:25] <spikeb> damn
[02:25] <Gwall> and the other problem

[02:25] <yharrow> and then you save it
[02:25] <dcfly> what does that command do
[02:25] <Gwall> this pc doesnt have cd drive
[02:25] <Nate-> what country are you situated azre

[02:25] <mc44> !pastebin | yarddog
[02:25] <ubotu> yarddog: 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)
[02:26] <mc44> bah, yharrow even :)
[02:26] <yharrow> hi mc44  : )
[02:26] <yharrow> hehe
[02:26] <Nate-> what country are you situated in?
[02:26] <ziroday> Wesley|: your card isnt supported by ati
[02:26] <X-Tream|> O.o?
[02:26] <Azrael---> Wesley|, what card have you got? FGLRX dropped support for my radeon9200 with the feisty version.
[02:26] <Wesley|> it is supportet with the 8.28.8 driver
[02:26] <X-Tream|> radeon 9250 is supportet by ati
[02:26] <Azrael---> ziroday: #amarok
[02:26] <ziroday> Wesley|: you tried envy?
[02:26] <ziroday> Azrael---: thanks
[02:26] <Wesley|> im an n00b^^
[02:27] <Azrael---> envy?
[02:27] <X-Tream|> yay
[02:27] <Wesley|> means, no, i didnt
[02:27] <dcfly> azrael - what does that command do? i'm new to linux.
[02:27] <Gwall> spikeb
[02:27] <Gwall> im gunna try the alternative installer
[02:27] <Azrael---> it takes you through the X server's configuration program.
[02:27] <Gwall> the text based one
[02:27] <ziroday> Wesley|: auto script to dl ati drivers www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[02:27] <Azrael---> You can set the screen res in there.
[02:27] <spikeb> Gwall: good idea.
[02:27] <dcfly> okay, i'll try it
[02:28] <dcfly> thanks
[02:28] <Young_Druid> hey. after update to fiesty. in grub i can choose 2 ubuntu kernels. is it normal? and can i leave only one last kernel of ubuntu?
[02:28] <Wesley|> ok ziro, i will try that one, thank you
[02:28] <ziroday> Young_Druid: yeah dont worry its normal
[02:28] <ziroday> Wesley|: np
[02:29] <Azrael---> Young_Druid, the boot menu is in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:29] <Azrael---> You can get rid of the inferior kernel's entries in that file.
[02:30] <Luxurious> NewToUbuntu: ""NVIDIA Vanta BIOS"" is probably what I'm looking for, right?
[02:30] <Young_Druid> ok. thanks.
[02:30] <Gwall> spikeb
[02:31] <NewToUbuntu> thats probably your graphics card it might be the next screen after when it shows how much RAM you have

I Get this message when i try to update and when i try to install anyting on my computer. have tryed ro reinstall but i get the same mess
[02:32] <Wesley|> error: operative system not supportet

[02:32] <Wesley|> envy whont work for me as far as i can see
[02:32] <ziroday> Wesley|: what ver of ubuntu are you using?
[02:32] <Wesley|> 7.04
[02:32] <Azrael---> arant, did you install dcp750cwcupswrapper?
[02:32] <arant> 7.04
[02:32] <arant> yes
[02:32] <ziroday> Wesley|: you have to dl the unstable
[02:32] <Azrael---> from the repos?
[02:32] <Wesley|> okay
[02:32] <Azrael---> or a download?
[02:33] <arant> how
[02:33] <abe> test
[02:33] <Luxurious> NewToUbuntu: Funny thing, that shows up, then a large COMPAQ sign, and then the GRUB starts loading.
[02:33] <Azrael---> how what, arant?
[02:33] <arant> cant open the package manager to uninstall
[02:33] <Azrael---> :/
[02:33] <arant> or delete
[02:34] <sebas_> how can I share files and a printer between 2 ubuntu pcs?
[02:34] <NewToUbuntu> oh - well it could be try googling it see what comes  up
[02:34] <Azrael---> open the console.
[02:34] <Jupp3> Anyone know a good place to start debugging non-working USB printer?
[02:34] <Azrael---> type 'sudo apt-get remove dcp750cwcupswrapper' and that'll get rid of it.
[02:34] <arant> ill try
[02:34] <GeorgeAScott> alcohol + ubuntu (or toubleshooting ubuntu) = fun for me.. why?
[02:34] <Jupp3> I just noticed one thing, there seems to be missing a file from /usr/lib/cups/filter...
[02:34] <user_> hey, guys, u sent me to #ubuntu-offtopic, theres empty... -.-
[02:34] <Jupp3> Which is weird, as I sure did install the drivers
[02:34] <Luxurious> NewToUbuntu: Well it says "16MB" so I'm guessing that's not it :-)
[02:35] <Hectorus> Slt tlm
[02:35] <Wesley|> um
[02:35] <Wesley|> i just realized, i had the unstable version
[02:35] <Wesley|> 0.9.4
[02:36] <Luxurious> NewToUbuntu: I just opened it up, it's a Ubuntu motherboard, which they've intelligently hidden with a metal plate that needs to be removed before you see the type.
[02:36] <Luxurious> But luckily, you can see all the electrical info there you'd never need.
[02:36] <GeorgeAScott> anyways... i've decided to ditch the dhcp server idea... not like i have a whole network of computers to connect with... gonna go static... will work on it tomorrow... have a good night all
[02:37] <NewToUbuntu> Or could try looking at the bios screen- which is pressing del or f8 or f12 when you boot it
[02:37] <jenda> Any tips as to how i can dump my DNS cache in Ubuntu?
[02:37] <arant> Azrael: i get the same message in the terminal
[02:38] <Luxurious> NewToUbuntu: Good man.
[02:38] <NewToUbuntu> no probs
[02:38] <cusco> .wc
[02:38] <Wesley|> i think it worket, thank you again, im gonna restart
[02:39] <sebas_> do I need samba to share files between ubuntu pcs only?
[02:39] <spikeb> well you can use samba or nfs for that
[02:40] <Azrael---> you need samba for windoze <-> ubuntu file sending.
[02:40] <Terminus> sebas_: i find nfs to be faster than samba if it's *nix <-> *nix file sharing
[02:40] <asdf7> Aloha!
[02:41] <sebas_> thank you
[02:41] <asdf7>  Hello!
[02:42] <asdf7>  Is my client sending messages properly?
[02:42] <NewToUbuntu> yup
[02:42] <sebas_> if I install samba on my ubuntu as a server sharing a printer, does windows automatically recognize it?
[02:42] <NewToUbuntu> it is asd7
[02:42] <asdf7>  Thanks, telnet as an IRC client takes getting used to. :)
[02:43] <Peter>  /me is away: goats [amsg]  [auto-away] 
[02:43] <user_> anyone know mb, does slashdot have their channel, is it #slashdotd i guess?:)
[02:43] <Terminus> sebas_: no idea. i find printer sharing through CUPS from a *nix box a lot more convenient than through samba, unless you still have win9x boxen.
[02:44] <Azrael---> boxen.
[02:44] <Azrael---> lol.
[02:44] <user_> euhm, Cannot join #slashdot (Channel is invite only). , okey..
[02:44] <adnan> hi
[02:44] <adnan> can one
[02:44] <adnan> change the root
[02:44] <mc44> user_: they have their own server, irc.slashnet.org
[02:44] <adnan> psswd if they are not logged in as root on the system
[02:44] <Terminus> Azrael---: what, haven't heard that term in a while? =P
[02:44] <user_> mc44: ohh, man, ty
[02:44] <Azrael---> i haven't, Terminus. I need to get out less :D
[02:45] <mc44> adnan: why do you want to change the root password?
[02:46] <Azrael---> adnan: yes, system > administration > users and groups
[02:46] <adnan> tx
[02:46] <adnan> I want to change it becasue I am logged in as myself now
[02:46] <LinuxHelp> Hi! I've currently got 32-bit wine running fine on 7.04 amd64, using these packages http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/apt/pool/main/w/wine/ But now I wish to compile 32-bit wine on my 64-bit machine
[02:46] <adnan> and need to log in as root
[02:46] <Andeh> hEY
[02:46] <adnan> I am reading a book
[02:46] <LinuxHelp> And I dont see a source package at that link
[02:46] <adnan> basically on linux
[02:46] <mc44> adnan: why do you need to login as root? use sudo
[02:46] <adnan> heheh
[02:46] <adnan> well i tried su
[02:47] <mc44> adnan: sudo su
[02:47] <Andeh> I read you could download stuff from USENET. I just installed PAN and started it and it wants me to add a server!
[02:47] <Azrael---> being root is a lot more convenient sometimes, mc44.
[02:47] <Cisyouc> sudo -s
[02:47] <Andeh> What servers are there?
[02:47] <adnan> what is the difference between sudo and su
[02:47] <mc44> Azrael---: you can use sudo -s
[02:47] <adnan> mc44
[02:47] <mc44> !sudo | adnan
[02:47] <ubotu> adnan: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[02:47] <cox377> does anyone know of a terminal based IP bandwidth monitor that would show total usage month etc?
[02:47] <Azrael---> mmm, sudo -s
[02:47] <mc44> that link explains
[02:48] <Azrael---> yummy
[02:48] <Andeh> Also, can i download stuff using PAN. I mean movies etc
[02:48] <adnan> ok
[02:49] <adnan> is it going to ask me for the psswd
[02:49] <Andeh> Can i download binary files using PAN?
[02:49] <adnan> and what if I don't have it
[02:49] <Andeh> Not just news
[02:49] <anto> Heya, how do i setup a new user in proftpd that can only access two certain folder but can create new files directories delete and append data?
[02:49] <NewToUbuntu> anyone know what I should check to get sound working. lspci says my card is detected and mixer volumes all turned up. I have on board sound card and PCI could they be conflicting?

[02:50] <Azrael---> Or, you can use irssi if you want, doc.
[02:50] <NewToUbuntu> i dont think it is can i disable it from the Ubuntu

[02:53] <marco_linux> hello, I am trying to run Ubuntu Feisty on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo L7310gW, but it seems not to start the X. Any Ideas?
[02:53] <mc44> rmd_: oh, I misunderstood I think, you want to show the volumes as icons on the desktop
[02:53] <rmd_> mc44, yeah, thats what i'm looking for
[02:54] <marco_linux> I need some help here, I am trying to run Ubuntu Feisty on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo L7310gW, but it seems not to start the X. Any Ideas?
[02:54] <anto> Heya, how do i setup a new user in proftpd that can only access two certain folder but can create new files directories delete and append data?
[02:54] <cox377> marco_linux: if no one know, try the ubuntu forums - if you have a problem, someone has already had it and solved it
[02:54] <thirdy_> aside from beryl what else is "wow"?
[02:54] <mc44> rmd_: in gconf-editor, apps->nautilus-desktop-volumes_visible
[02:54] <marco_linux> cox377, I have been there already!
[02:55] <cox377> marco_linux: :s lol
[02:55] <rmd_> mc44: thanks loads

[02:55] <NewToUbuntu> ahh fixed my sounds problem I had to tick the audigy analog/Digital Output Jack tick box buried away in the volume control
[02:55] <marco_linux> cox377, Thanks anyway!!
[02:55] <kenthomson> I have a problem with fonts
[02:55] <marco_linux> cox377, I will keep trying.
[02:55] <marco_linux> hello, I am trying to run Ubuntu Feisty on a Fujitsu Siemens Amilo L7310gW, but it seems not to start the X. Any Ideas?
[02:56] <b0wlman> stop spamming it.
[02:56] <b0wlman> have you googled your problem macro?
[02:56] <DocTrax> and i cant configure the eth0 device
[02:56] <marco_linux> b0wlman, yes, I will keep trying there and here.
[02:56] <DocTrax> by using that system->networking thing
[02:57] <DocTrax> i used static ip with gateway and dns-server
[02:57] <jack_r> marco_linux,  cat /var/log/XFree86.0.log |grep "EE"
[02:58] <kenthomson> I installed a few new fonts from the ubuntu-repo, and i re-started X, now the fonts in the terminal (Monospace 10), fonts in X-Chat and other places that use "fixed width fonts" (eg.gedit) use a washed-out variant of monospace. I can't even read clearly what all of you are typing, please help. My resolution, refresh rate is fine and so are fonts in title-bar and others (eg. if i select sans-10 in gedit /terminal than everything is displayed correctly,
[02:58] <kenthomson>  it is only the monospace that has a washed out look).
[02:58] <Eng-Tea> Ubuntu seems to have firewall installd by default, can you tell me where it is I need to open a port
[02:58] <marco_linux> jack_r, ok, I will try. Hold!!!
[02:58] <kenthomson> iptables | Eng-Tea
[02:59] <kenthomson> !iptables | Eng-Tea
[02:59] <ubotu> Eng-Tea: Ubuntu, like any other linux distribution, has firewall capabilities built-in. The firewall is managed using the 'iptables' command (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo), or GUI applications such as Firestarter (Gnome) or Guarddog (KDE).
[02:59] <kenthomson> !firestarter | Eng-Tea
[02:59] <dcfly> one more silly question if i may - i'm trying to edit the file menu.lst file (grub config) but i can't save my changes. my guess is that i'm not logged in with the proper permissions. i'm new to linux - how do i get the proper permissions to edit this file. i'm editing it because i've determined that if the "splash" option is enabled ubuntu crashes before booting on my system. i need to edit that out.
[02:59] <Eng-Tea> thanks
[02:59] <sebas_> dcfly use sudo: sudo /boot/grub/menu.lst
[02:59] <kenthomson> dcfly, "sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst" use vim/nano other in place of gedit
[03:00] <sebas_> sorry
[03:00] <dcfly> thanks
[03:00] <kenthomson> Can someone help me with the font-thing?
[03:00] <HymnToLife> !gksudo
[03:00] <ubotu> If you need to run graphical applications as root, use  gksudo , as it will set up the environment more appropriately. Avoid ever using  sudo <GUI-application>  See http://psychocats.net/ubuntu/graphicalsudo for more info
[03:00] <ziroday> kenthomson: il try
[03:00] <kenthomson> ziroday, go on
[03:00] <BlueEagle> kenthomson: I would if I could. >(
[03:00] <marco_linux> jack_r, It works if I boot using safe graphic mode.
[03:00] <kenthomson> HymnToLife, right you are
[03:00] <BlueEagle> :(
[03:01] <ziroday> kenthomson: ive been sleeping whats wrong?
[03:01] <kenthomson> ziroday, I installed a few new fonts from the ubuntu-repo, and i re-started X, now the fonts in the terminal (Monospace 10), fonts in X-Chat and other places that use "fixed width fonts" (eg.gedit) use a washed-out variant of monospace.

[03:01] <sean_> Hallo, anyone who have used panlantir?
[03:01] <sean_> I've got a problem
[03:01] <ziroday> kenthomson: just saw no idea
[03:01] <kenthomson> ziroday, ?
[03:01] <ziroday> kenthomson: dunno sorry
[03:01] <jack_r> marco_linux, probably in safe mode it is using Vesa mode driver and in normal mode your hardware probed driver thatswhy it crashes
[03:02] <jack_r> see log file
[03:02] <Ross> someone could tell me how spend less toner during printing? i think there's a program but i dont'know
[03:03] <Azrael---> ross: use white text on a white background.
[03:03] <hypn0> can't u change the printer setting to economy Ross
[03:03] <Ross> thx Azrael--- very usefull, htpn0 i think no :(
[03:04] <jack_r> marco_linux, see ur /etc/X11/Xorg.conf for Section "Device" and look for Driver "Vesa" or something like that in there
[03:04] <Azrael---> always willing to help out, ross.
[03:04] <ziroday> Ross: you can select print mode in printing options and set it to lower quality
[03:04] <gucao> could 3d desktop has six side??
[03:05] <Ross> ziroday i think i can't do it! i'm not really an expert

[03:14] <marco_linux> jack_r, (EE), Failed to load module "VESA" (module does not exist, 0)
[03:15] <jack_r> marco_linux, did u type VESA in capital in /etc/X11/Xorg.conf ? if yes type it in small "vesa"
[03:15] <marco_linux> jack_r, ok, hold!
[03:15] <dagon_> I'm having a smallproblem with my laptop, it's not recognizing whether the machine is plugged in to power or no, nor showing the battery charge anymore. I think this started after the latest kernel update. Also, the machine used to lock when I closed the lid, and not it's not doing that anymore. Any one has some idea what the problem might be? thanks. :-)
[03:16] <marco_linux> jack_r, I need to restart the X, how can I do it in text mode?

[03:18] <tim167> jrib, sorry my mistake, wrong directory :/
[03:19] <tim167> jrib, had to do rm /dev/video1 :)
[03:20] <marco_linux> jack_r, It is working know. :D How can I change the resolution to 1280x800?
[03:21] <tim167> sebas a command is a program, so i guess you can but i might be wrong
[03:22] <sebas_> why don't we index all the information on this channel (q&a) just like we can index a web site? I see really repeated problems and questions.
[03:22] <jack_r> marco_linux, i think vesa works with max 1024x768 (not 100% sure) , still try editing /etc/X11/Xorg.conf ,see Section "Screen" and add "1280x1024" in "Modes" in all color depths
[03:22] <jrib> sebas_: all the repeated stuff is in the FAQ linked in the topic, but few read it
[03:23] <marco_linux> jack_r, ok. thank you very much!!
[03:23] <tim167> jrib its just easyer for the lazy peeps like mee to throw in a question here ;)
[03:23] <tim167> *me
[03:24] <Aerotwelve> Hey all, I have an ndiswrapper problem. It looks like it's installed correctly. Running "ndiswrapper -l" shows my driver is loaded, but it can't find my hardware. I'm using a Broadcom chipset with the 0x4311 code. Network Manager and WiFiRadar both do not recognize it. Thanks in advance/
[03:24] <dcfly> i have one more really simple question (sorry) - how do i make a drive auto-mount?
[03:24] <sebas_> jrib: where did ubotu learn?
[03:24] <jack_r> marco_linux, anytime
[03:24] <jrib> sebas_: input from users
[03:24] <jrib> !ubotu > sebas_ (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:24] <mc44> Aerotwelve: does your hardware show up on lsusb or lspci?
[03:24] <Azrael---> Aerotwelve, you have done 'modprobe ndiswrapper', right?
[03:25] <jrib> dcfly: what filesystem?
[03:25] <dcfly> ntfs
[03:25] <jrib> !ntfs > dcfly (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:25] <tim167> !ubotu > tim167
[03:25] <dcfly> thanks
[03:25] <Aerotwelve> Azrael--: Yes, but modprobe doesn't do much. It waits for a bit and drops me to a new command line
[03:26] <mc44> Aerotwelve: if ndiswrapper can't see your hardware, modprobing won't help
[03:26] <Aerotwelve> mc44: My network card? Yes, but it shows up as Broadcom Corporation Unknown device 4328 (rev 01)
[03:26] <dcfly> thanks very much jrib and everyone else. i got all the help i need for today and every one of your suggestions worked.
[03:28] <Aerotwelve> mc44: That means it isn't recognized by the kernel, correct?
[03:28] <mc44> Aerotwelve: have you tried using bcm43xx-fwcutter
[03:28] <kathan> Hello
[03:28] <Aerotwelve> mc44: Hmm? Is that a driver?
[03:28] <ccct> hello
[03:28] <mc44> Aerotwelve: it gets the firmware for your driver so you can use the broadcom driver rather than ndiswrapper
[03:29] <Aerotwelve> mc44: Is that a command? What is the format?
[03:29] <marco_linux> jack_r, It is all working now, including the resolution!!! Thanks again!! Where are you from?
[03:30] <mc44> Aerotwelve: no its a package, apt-get install it
[03:31] <NoobS-Must-Die> sorry, how to make an file executable?
[03:32] <Aerotwelve> mc44: Alright, I'm trying it now. Thanks.

[03:32] <kathan> My graphics (a S3 Unichrome integrated to the motherboard) seem to work fine (glxgears is at about 500FPS) but I can't set up a resolution above 800*600 (in xorg.conf Modes are up to 1024*768)
[03:33] <Azrael---> glxgears @ 500fps?
[03:33] <Azrael---> that's terrible
[03:33] <Azrael---> you should be getting at least 1000
[03:34] <Aerotwelve> mc44: Thanks, this looks like it should work.

[04:13] <geoaxis> bastid_raZor,  which one glx or glx-new
[04:13] <simon__> yes. I think it happened after beryl install
[04:13] <Nostferka> kbrooks: i didnt know you could do that
[04:13] <Nostferka> i played with kompile for a bit...
[04:13] <simon__> thats true
[04:13] <i0null> Corvinis-V: driver wise is really good
[04:13] <bastid_raZor> geoaxis: i started with glx, like he said it possible newer drivers are out.
[04:13] <Nostferka> ...you learn something new every day....
[04:13] <bastid_raZor> let me double check see which i have.
[04:14] <simon__> And i've had some xorg problems. but this is the only one remaining now
[04:14] <thingy> simon__, there ya go then...beryl has issues with video playback...i haven't used beryl but you could ask in #beryl for advice
[04:14] <kbrooks> Nostferka: to clear up a myth: you can pass checkinstall a command with the -c option. this command must install files though (not just compile). the default command is "make install"
[04:14] <mh_le> does anyone know how to clear a postfix mail queue?
[04:14] <bastid_raZor> geoaxis: i currently have glx installed.
[04:14] <Corvinis-V> i0null, is it nice for non experts? I know my way around linux but not too much of a guru I'm afraid
[04:14] <Osirus> FireJet, hmm, it works for .pdf files, thanks - but doesnt work for .iso files... would you know the reason?
[04:14] <Nostferka> Yeah i dont understand on most linuxes why you have to do the whole ./configure, make
[04:14] <Nostferka> make instal
[04:14] <Nostferka> palava
[04:15] <i0null> Corvinis-V: desktop-wise is down to opinion, i prefer fedoras default desktop. but i have my ubuntu desktop now really nice.
[04:15] <geoaxis> bastid_raZor,  what do you get as glxgears output
[04:15] <FireJet> Osirus: Uh? You want to find isos on the DVD?
[04:15] <bastid_raZor> geoaxis: and it is working great for me.. but every box is different. the -new may be better.
[04:15] <andresmujica> yell3 what problem are you having?
[04:15] <bastid_raZor> geoaxis: ?
[04:15] <i0null> Corvinis-V: you like openSUSE?
[04:15] <andresmujica> i can play without much trouble
[04:15] <yell3> amarok cant play internet streams\
[04:15] <Osirus> FireJet, Its got Linux iso images, but it is sorted by date of download along with a whole lot of other downloads...
[04:15] <shawn34> ubuntu will not use my refresh rate properly and i'm seeing lines in the screen. can someone help me out?
[04:15] <geoaxis> bastid_raZor,  in console type glxgears ..it is a rough test of card performance
[04:15] <Corvinis-V> I don't know :) I'm looking for a nice package :) I was planning on giving Ubuntu a spin
[04:16] <geoaxis> the more fps you get the better
[04:16] <VoX> Corvinis-V: i was a debian zealot for many years, until i got my amd64. i spent two weeks just trying to get X working properly. I then tried ubuntu and everything just _worked_ straight out-of-the-box.
[04:16] <yell3> i have restricted installed, thats not the problem
[04:16] <FireJet> Osirus: So "find /path/to/dvd -iname .iso" doesn't work?
[04:16] <zoom_> thanks all have a nice week
[04:16] <Corvinis-V> sounds good VoX
[04:16] <yell3> amarok cant play internet streams, seems not to stream , error
[04:16] <kbrooks> Nostferka: well, ./configure checks the system for things and configures the package for the system... and makie compiles the packages. and then make install is supposed to copy the package and all data files to system admin directories.
[04:16] <Osirus> FireJet, there are literally thousands of folders with subfolders - i dont wanna look in each one, I just want to copy off a few isos, Right now find /dev/cdrom0 -iname .iso is not working
[04:16] <VoX> Corvinis-V: i know alot of uber-sys-admin types who love ubuntu
[04:16] <kbrooks> Nostferka: read: "is supposed to"
[04:16] <harri_> \join #<fit>
[04:16] <Osirus> FireJet, also, the first folder has an iso in it - which is why it isnt working
[04:17] <Nostferka> but why so longwinded?
[04:17] <bastid_raZor> geoaxis: i see.. it is running.. looks smooth as can be
[04:17] <FireJet> Osirus: Don't do "/dev/cdrom0", do "/media/cdrom". The path should be the mount point. ;)
[04:17] <i0null> Corvinis-V: you can get gnome-main-panel / desktop-applet on the desktop really easily and they greatly enhance my experience. however, there not distro specific tools.
[04:17] <bastid_raZor> 6054 frames in 5.0 seconds = 1210.719 FPS
[04:17] <Corvinis-V> Fedora install gave me a hell of a time..... it didn't recognize my dvd player anymore after setup loaded.... didn't recognize any of my ide channels either ... :P
[04:17] <bastid_raZor> FPS is getting higher the longer i let it run
[04:17] <Corvinis-V> Seems to be a common problem or so I've heard
[04:17] <geoaxis> bastid_raZor,  1210 is IMO low for your card
[04:18] <VoX> Corvinis-V: well you can try-before-you-install with ubuntu
[04:18] <geoaxis> it should be near 2000
[04:18] <bastid_raZor> topped out 1294, low is 1190
[04:18] <kbrooks> Nostferka: because it all starts with source. fortunately, many people have done the "./configure && make && make install"  system for you and wraps the data into packages
[04:18] <Corvinis-V> ah live is it ?
[04:18] <geoaxis> with proper configurations
[04:18] <Corvinis-V> with install option ?
 thanks
[04:18] <i0null> Corvinis-V: you used Fedora Frog?
[04:18] <VoX> Corvinis-V: correct
[04:18] <Nostferka> lovely
[04:18] <shawn34> Corvinis-V, just run the feisty live-cd. If it detects your hardware on the live cd the full install should go fine
[04:18] <bastid_raZor> geoaxis: i'm also pushing dual monitors.. i'm splitting my on board RAM
[04:18] <Corvinis-V> :) sounds good ....
[04:18] <Osirus> FireJet, sorry, thats what i was doing.. pdf files are found but no .iso's
[04:18] <VoX> Corvinis-V: once you have the live cd loaded, it has a Desktop option to install, with an uber-easy install wizard
[04:19] <geoaxis> bastid_raZor,  RAM should not matter, but dual monitor should
[04:19] <kbrooks> Nostferka: hence my need to put those four factoids at you so that you learn more
[04:19] <Osirus> FireJet, I am doing the same thing on a usb drive, no result either
[04:19] <geoaxis> bastid_raZor,  twin-view or xinerama?
[04:19] <Corvinis-V> So I suppose all you peeps like Ubuntu then :) Nothing in particular I should worry about ?
[04:19] <isis> hi
[04:19] <bastid_raZor> geoaxis: right, my DVI is crisp and clear .. plays the new MKV H264 files no problem
[04:19] <kbrooks> Nostferka: and not waste your time uh compiling stuff
[04:19] <VoX> Corvinis-V: nothing springs to mind
[04:19] <Nostferka> thanks
[04:19] <FireJet> Osirus: That's odd. Try to cd to the mountpoint and do "find ./ -iname iso"
[04:19] <Aerotwelve> Hello everyone, how do I do a reinstall of Ubuntu? I don't want to format my disc, as it contains Windows. Is there a function on the CD that will just wipe this partition and write over it?
[04:20] <kbrooks> Nostferka: np, we're here to help.
[04:20] <i0null> Corvinis-V: I think it really depends on if you prefer .deb based or .rpm based distro's
[04:20] <kbrooks> FireJet: no...
[04:20] <FireJet> Osirus: No "." this time.
[04:20] <flithm> hey everyone... I previously had a working wireless setup with feisty -- I just updated with synaptic today, and now my wireless won't connect to the network anymore -- just keeps asking for the wpa2 key... anyone know what's going on? (other wireless devices in the house still work fine)
[04:20] <Osirus> FireJet, ok will do
[04:20] <kbrooks> FireJet: you really mean "*.iso"
[04:20] <Corvinis-V> what's the difference... I know rpm ....
[04:20] <Corvinis-V> not deb
[04:20] <Corvinis-V> prolly stands for debian
[04:20] <VoX> Corvinis-V: .deb is like rpm, without the fail and stupidity
[04:20] <kbrooks> FireJet: and those quotes are necessary
[04:20] <VoX> :)
[04:20] <Corvinis-V> ah
[04:20] <bastid_raZor> Twinview
[04:20] <Corvinis-V> I like deb better then lol
[04:20] <FireJet> kbrooks: Well, but how'd it work for the PDFs?
[04:20] <Osirus> FireJet, no difference
[04:21] <i0null> Corvinis-V: basically what VoX said
[04:21] <kbrooks> FireJet: same thing
[04:21] <Corvinis-V> ;)
[04:21] <RR[D1] detructor1> hi
[04:21] <VoX> Corvinis-V: apt is the debian/ubuntu equiv of yum.. except it _works_
[04:21] <Ben_> Hi, I just want to confirm something before I install ubuntu - there's a hidden partition on my HDD that contains information required to reset my laptop to 'factory conditions'. In creating a new partition for ubuntu etc. and installing, I don't want to touch it. How would I go about doing this in the installation?
[04:21] <FireJet> Osirus: Then, try what kbrooks said: "find /media/cdrom -iname "*.iso" "
[04:21] <Corvinis-V> I'm probably going to be hanging out here alot :) I've scripted this channel in my mirc :P
[04:21] <kbrooks> FireJet: if you do just *.iso without the quotes, then the shell will expand that
[04:21] <Ben_> I'm particularly keen not to overwrite it accidentally
[04:21] <bastid_raZor> geoaxis: i had tons of trouble getting this thing set up correctly. until recently twinview would not work, but i found out. it was my MB,Processor being a weak little nothing that caused it
[04:21] <imon9> hello. i would like to ask something about backup-up my partition... if it correct to say if i boot into my computer using a liveCD and tar all the files in my ext partition, that i can just copy them back and have the partition working again next time?
[04:22] <FireJet> kbrooks: Yeah, but the shell won't expand ".iso"
[04:22] <i0null> I'm not sure about rpm's, but with deb's you can easly grab the source, reconfigure the packages, see what files are in the packages etc really easily
[04:22] <Corvinis-V> nice
[04:22] <FireJet> kbrooks: No asterisk.
[04:22] <RR[D1] detructor1> can someone help me? I have a problem with "Sauerbraten" the game...when I click on "Exit" it freeze and I must reset my PC
[04:22] <Aerotwelve> Does anyone happen to know the command to get the restricted ATI drivers so I don't get any "no screens found" errors?
[04:22] <VoX> Corvinis-V: i've been using .deb-based distros for 8 years now, and i'll never go back.. it's just so easy to use and hardly ever screws up(only happened once, and took all of 5 minutes to correct)
[04:22] <kbrooks> i0null: same with rpms
[04:22] <Osirus> FireJet, ok, that has found the iso in the root of the dir... but its not searching subfolders!
[04:23] <kbrooks> Osirus: uh, -depth 1 should work
[04:23] <Corvinis-V> well burning ubuntu as we speak :P
[04:23] <kbrooks> Osirus: (not -maxdepth, that limits the depth!!!)
[04:23] <VoX> heh
[04:23] <VoX> good man
[04:23] <i0null> kbrooks: i right =] 
[04:23] <i0null> oh*
[04:23] <imon9> hello. i would like to ask something about backup-up my partition... if it correct to say if i boot into my computer using a liveCD and tar all the files in my ext3 partition, that i can just copy them back and have the partition working again next time?
[04:24] <azlon> im trying to create a web server (just for local testing). i downloaded/installed apache, mysql, and php5
[04:24] <kbrooks> imon9: no..
[04:24] <Corvinis-V> I mean how would you guys feel spending several hours on trying to get fedora to work only to end up with a kernel panic....
[04:24] <azlon> where do i need to start building my pages now? what folder?
[04:24] <i0null> Corvinis-V: I have had that about 20 times lol
[04:24] <FireJet> imon9: I doubt it. Especially the dev files.
[04:24] <VoX> Corvinis-V: i spent several days getting a FC system to work to no avail..
[04:24] <Osirus> kbrooks, it complains when i add the 1 parameter
[04:24] <VoX> but that's for work
[04:24] <imon9> kbrooks: why not.. and how can i backup my partition using liaveCD?
[04:24] <VoX> i HATE rh/fc with a passion
[04:25] <kbrooks> imon9: Try partimage.
[04:25] <LotsOfSexNoLove> azlon /var/www
[04:25] <Osirus> kbrooks, it accepts -depth, but complains for -depth 1
[04:25] <imon9> ok
[04:25] <aboo0ood> some mp3 files have noise when i play them , can any one help ?
[04:25] <Corvinis-V> well i've started friday... we're can I join to rh/fc hateclub ?
[04:25] <Corvinis-V> :P
[04:25] <i0null> Corvinis-V: I had that when i first tryed to install gentoo, it took day's to install and when  the install had 1% to go, it crashed
[04:25] <bastid_raZor> download better versions?
[04:26] <Corvinis-V> to = the
[04:26] <kbrooks> Osirus: yes ok use -depth
[04:26] <FireJet> Osirus: Yeah, in the manpage, there's nothing about depth having parameters. Just do -depth
[04:26] <n2diy> imon9: and test your backup strategy. Thinking you have a back up, and having a functional one can lead to unpleasant surprises, when you need it.
[04:26] <Corvinis-V> Vox, i0null you guys hang out here all the time ?
[04:26] <imon9> ok..thanks
[04:26] <Osirus> FireJet, but -depth makes no difference... am I perhaps missing something else crucial?
[04:27] <aboo0ood> some mp3 files have noise when i play them , can any one help ?
[04:27] <bastid_raZor> download better versions?
[04:27] <PriceChild> !offtopic | Corvinis-V
[04:27] <ubotu> Corvinis-V: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:27] <kbrooks> 90% ... yay
[04:27] <imon9> u using to used imagedrive XML, but it doesnt support EXT3
[04:27] <i0null> Corvinis-V: Nope, i'm normally in ##linux
[04:27] <Corvinis-V> ah ok thanks :)
[04:27] <aboo0ood> bastid_raZor, r u talking to me ?
[04:27] <LotsOfSexNoLove> and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter   -- at last :)))
[04:27] <Osirus> FireJet, there is for example subfolders like this: 020107/ps3/gentoo/images/iso/gentoo-live-cd.iso but it is not picking that up in the search
[04:28] <bastid_raZor> yes
[04:28] <FireJet> Osirus: But the actual file is there?
[04:28] <FireJet> Osirus: Hm....
[04:28] <VoX> Corvinis-V: yeah im always here
[04:28] <aboo0ood> bastid_raZor, they work well on other machines , the problem is not in the files
[04:28] <Osirus> FireJet, yes! Ive also copied it off onto my hdd...
[04:28] <kbrooks> Osirus: try -maxdepth 6 then
[04:28] <bastid_raZor> possibly need a new codec? what player are you using?
[04:29] <Corvinis-V> I just jumped to offtopic VoX :) tty there :)
[04:29] <aboo0ood> bastid_raZor,  totem
[04:29] <Zano> Heya. I'm wondering if if in Ubuntu it is possible to do the following.. Have one computer with two monitors, two keyboards, two mice and a dualcore CPU to allow two users to simultaneously use it in dual desktop environments? I know there's noway to do that in Windows so i figured Linux would be my best bet.
[04:29] <Osirus> kbrooks, sigh... still no change
[04:29] <Zano> Anyone have any idea if its even possible? So I can look further into it.
[04:29] <kbrooks> Osirus: hm, ok, i give up.
[04:29] <FireJet> Osirus: find /dev/cdrom/ -iname "*.iso"
[04:30] <FireJet> Just copy-paste.
[04:30] <arezoo> l
[04:30] <FireJet> Osirus: Make sure it's exactly that.
[04:30] <Osirus> FireJet, yaya that worked
[04:30] <Osirus> FireJet, Quotes made it work
[04:30] <FireJet> Yeah...
[04:30] <Osirus> FireJet, Thanks loads
[04:30] <FireJet> Osirus: Thank kbrooks, he suggested. :)
[04:30] <kbrooks> :-)
[04:31] <kbrooks> just a coinindence :-)
[04:31] <FireJet> Osirus: I guess you didn't use the quotes before.
[04:31] <Osirus> FireJet, kbrooks, thank you both :)
[04:31] <LotsOfSexNoLove> ;)
[04:31] <Zano> Hm.. I'll check the forums..
[04:31] <kbrooks> FireJet: thats the problem with not using quotes :-)
[04:31] <FireJet> Osirus: I'd suggest you try the same thing with the pdfs again, too.
[04:31] <i0null> Zano, it's definitely possible, i'm not sure how-to though
[04:31] <Osirus> FireJet, yes I intend to
[04:31] <Chaoticwhizz> Hello all. Anyone know how to turn off "User is away" mesages in Kopete?
[04:32] <i0null> Zano, ask ##linux
[04:32] <Zano> Oh, I'll try that, thanks.
[04:32] <bcochofe1> Hi, I'm using ubuntu 6.10 and want to upgrade to the new 7.04. How can I do this? Do I only have to change my sources.list?
[04:32] <PriceChild> !upgrade | bcochofe1
[04:32] <ubotu> bcochofe1: For upgrading, see the instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UpgradeNotes
[04:32] <FireJet> kbrooks: Yeah, I tried it in /usr/src, with and without quotes, and found the problem. Good thing to know for the future.
[04:33] <Thorn> Hello, i have a second question with Ubuntu that has been disturbing me lately... When i try to do anything on my linux partitions it is very slow. However, anything on my windows NTFS partitions are accesseed fast on linux
[04:33] <aboo0ood> bastid_raZor, besides totem  , i use realplayer
[04:33] <Thorn> I have the same problem on ext3 and ReiserFS
[04:33] <Osirus> Thorn, are your ext3 partitions full?
[04:33] <Thorn> It can take up 25 seconds to open a terminal
[04:33] <Thorn> Osirus, no
[04:33] <Thorn> 10gb left in / and 20gb left in /home
[04:33] <aboo0ood> bastid_raZor, but both have the same problem
[04:34] <Osirus> Thorn, do you have beagle or something similar?
[04:34] <Thorn> beagle?
[04:34] <n2diy> I just realized I lost my system sounds, the cdrom is listed in in device manager, when I double click on the volume control it says no gstreamer plugins and/or devices found. Sound worked intially, so something has changed?
[04:34] <Osirus> Thorn, its a search engine + indexer
[04:34] <Thorn> apt-get install beagle?
[04:35] <kUb_oNE> hello
[04:35] <Osirus> Thorn, it creeps around your drive much like windows search (in vista) does and indexes the files
[04:35] <kUb_oNE> the 7.0.4 works in pentium 2?
[04:35] <Thorn> ah ok, im installing it now, Thanks for the help
[04:35] <Ilokaasu> kUb_oNE: how much memory
[04:35] <Luxurious_> What's the signal called that Ctrl+C sends?
[04:35] <kUb_oNE> 8 MB
[04:35] <Ilokaasu> ram ?
[04:35] <LotsOfSexNoLove> kUb_oNE the answer is no :)
[04:36] <kUb_oNE> video
[04:36] <Chaoticwhizz> My main problem is xorg takes all of my CPU cycles after I walk away from the PC for awhile. I am using Fiesty that was upgraded from Edgy via Adept. I use KDE BTW. I also have gnome installed as well
[04:36] <kUb_oNE> 128MB ram
[04:36] <Ilokaasu> how much ram memory ?
[04:36] <Ilokaasu> try xubuntu
[04:36] <aidan> the PHP package is broken, in that it looks for it's ini files in /usr/local/etc rather than /etc/php/apache2/php.ini ... anyone know how to fix this?
[04:36] <Ilokaasu> and install in text mode...
[04:36] <kUb_oNE> xubuntu?
[04:36] <norealgravity> is ubuntu only 153 mb?
[04:36] <jrib> norealgravity: no
[04:36] <Ilokaasu> xubuntu = ubuntu with xfce
[04:36] <Thorn> Osirus, beagle is now installed but i dont notice any difference when i open a terminal or other folders here.
[04:37] <Thorn> Beagle requires a reboot to initialize?
[04:37] <FireJet> aidan: "ln -s /etc/php/apache2/php.ini /usr/local/etc/" ?
[04:37] <Luxurious_> Ctrl+C gives a SIGINT, if anyone was wondering.
[04:37] <kbrooks> Thorn: no.
[04:37] <lunixman> hello
[04:37] <lunixman> i just installed xubuntu
[04:37] <lunixman> *ubuntu rather
[04:37] <Brausebonbon> Hi
[04:37] <azlon> im trying to copy to a folder i dont have permissions to, where do i put in my password to get permissions?
[04:37] <lunixman> i have one physical harddrive with 2 partitions, the other is Windows XP
[04:37] <kUb_oNE> i m  already installing 7.0
[04:37] <jrib> azlon: where are you copying to?
[04:37] <kbrooks> Thorn: it requires loads of hd time to commit.
[04:38] <lunixman> my other partitions aren't present in Media
[04:38] <azlon> var/www/
[04:38] <kUb_oNE> i m  already installing 7.0 in the P2
[04:38] <Thorn> kbrooks ok
[04:38] <LotsOfSexNoLove> azlon sudo cp ....
[04:38] <lunixman> what do i type in the command prompt to autodetect my other partitions?
[04:38] <aidan> FireJet: I guess I should have thought of that :/
[04:38] <jrib> !sudo > azlon (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:38] <kbrooks> Thorn: hd time, not hd space
[04:38] <fxfitz> How do I automatically start a program (with root) when the computer starts???
[04:38] <azlon> yeah, but im doing it in GUI
[04:38] <cx42> hello !
[04:38] <FireJet> aidan: Crude hack, but it should work.
[04:38] <aidan> how do I map my arrow keys in VI properly? at the momet pressing them in insert mode gives me "A" "B" "C" and "D"
[04:39] <aidan> FireJet: interesting that the package is broken
[04:39] <kbrooks> ok, byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
[04:39] <cx42> Do you know the command line to launch the close session "apps" (with halt, reboot, close session, ...) ?
[04:39] <jrib> aidan: just install vim-full
[04:39] <FireJet> aidan: Yes, I suppose.
[04:40] <fxfitz> Does anyone know how to automatically start a program with root when the computer boots???
[04:40] <cx42> please :/
[04:40] <azlon> how can i copy files to a protected folder with the GUI (i know its sudo w/ command prompt)
[04:40] <LotsOfSexNoLove> fxfitz rc.local
[04:40] <Chaoticwhizz> Anyone have an idea why xorg is eating up CPU usage after I leave the PC sit for awhile?
[04:40] <jrib> azlon: gksudo nautilus    you should probably just setup some permissions for your user isntead...
[04:40] <fxfitz> LotsOfSexNoLove, I'm sorry, I'm a bit new to Ubuntu...
[04:40] <azlon> k
[04:41] <jrib> !permissions > azlon (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:41] <aidan> jrib: oh
[04:41] <LotsOfSexNoLove> fxfitz put the program in /etc/rc.local
[04:41] <lunixman> what should i type in the command prompt to detect and mount other partitions?
[04:41] <yell3> fxfitz, or add in sessions
[04:41] <lunixman> i only have one physical harddrive
[04:41] <fxfitz> LotsOfSexNoLove, Thank you!
[04:41] <yell3> in gnome desktop
[04:41] <Corvinis-V> what does Can't access tty mean; Job control turned off mean ? or is that not important
[04:42] <Corvinis-V>  it sticks at (initramfs) _
[04:42] <FireJet> Corvinis-V: Is this after an install?
[04:42] <fxfitz> yell3, I actually tried that but it didn't give me the add option, and it wasn't in the list,.
[04:42] <Corvinis-V> no while booting the cd
[04:42] <stockfisch> hi folks!
[04:42] <aidan> jrib: much better
[04:42] <stockfisch> can anyone tell me where amarok saves its settings and images and so on?
[04:43] <taurusivy> how can i use proxy in irssi?
[04:43] <yell3> fxfitz , just look and see , open sessions
[04:43] <FireJet> Corvinis-V: Oh, right. Yeah, I had the same problem on my other comp. It seems to be a broked Lite-On CD/DVD drive thing
[04:43] <LotsOfSexNoLove> fxfitz if your ptogram is GUI it;s not a good idea to put it in /etc/rc.local      better use session
[04:43] <Corvinis-V> so what should I do ?
[04:43] <yell3> and add program to start, then type the program, like you would start it from
[04:43] <yell3> command line
[04:43] <fxfitz> LotsOfSexNoLove, No, its just a background service. No-ip to be specific
[04:43] <jrib> taurusivy: http://www.irssi.org/documentation/proxy
[04:43] <FireJet> stockfisch: /usr/share/apps/amarok/ ?
[04:43] <fxfitz> yell3, Oh wait, I was looking in services, not sessions.
[04:44] <yell3> fxfitz, whats the program you like to start?
[04:44] <Corvinis-V> FirJet > What should I do about the error ?
[04:44] <Corvinis-V> FireJet*
[04:44] <fxfitz> yell3, no-ip
[04:44] <fxfitz> yell3, But I want it to start as root.
[04:44] <azlon> how do i create a new html file in prompt?
[04:44] <yell3> hmm, dont know that one, how would you start it from the bash?
[04:44] <FireJet> Corvinis-V: I forget, but I have 2 CD drives, and disconnecting the Lite-On fixes it.
[04:44] <jrib> azlon: touch foo.html
[04:45] <erUSUL> azlon: with a text editor such as nano or vim ??
[04:45] <Yadnu> hi
[04:45] <LotsOfSexNoLove> fxfitz /etc/rc.local    will be nice for no-ip script :"P)
[04:45] <azlon> yes, but these damn permissions are kicking my ass
[04:45] <taurusivy> jrib: ok , thanx
[04:45] <azlon> i dont know how to do anything with the gui, so im playing with the prompts
[04:45] <yell3> okey, then you need to make it , yes follow other instructions...:)
[04:45] <fxfitz> LotsOfSexNoLove, Yeah, its already added. But I'd also like to learn other ways of doing things just for future reference. :-P
[04:45] <aidan> hah cancel that, ssh'd to the wrong server
[04:46] <chrissieX> hi all! I need to remove ubuntu on a dual boot laptop. i intend to give this comp to my son and he only wants winXP... how do I uninstall the whole linux OS? and leave only winXP?
[04:46] <fxfitz> LotsOfSexNoLove, Thanks a lot!
[04:46] <azlon> how do i edit a file now?
[04:46] <stockfisch> @FireJet: Good hint, but the album covers do not seem to be stored there
[04:46] <LotsOfSexNoLove> azlon if you want you might to use chmod for permission (no very good) or just create a ln -s and set right persmission to link
[04:46] <FireJet> stockfisch: That'll probably be in ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok, since it's user-based.
[04:46] <LotsOfSexNoLove> might to use   shit .... my english.... sorry about that
[04:46] <Cockroach> how can I specify a config when using apt-get install linux-image-X
[04:47] <chrissieX> brb
[04:47] <Chaoticwhizz> chrissiex, just delete the ubuntu partition from WIN XP Disk Administrator
[04:48] <stockfisch> @FireJet: Thanks, you are right. Ill go for the update for 7.04 now.
[04:48] <FireJet> stockfisch: That was the thing stopping you?
[04:49] <stockfisch> @FireJet: Yes, I wanted to have saved most of my settings and I did not know where the amarok settings were saved.
[04:49] <FireJet> stockfisch: Oh. Well, glad I could help.
[04:49] <stockfisch> THX
[04:51] <Shane-S> I just did tar -xvvzf on a .tar.gz file and it unzipped it in the current directory....how do I made it go into a subfolder? I am using the command line
[04:51] <LotsOfSexNoLove> Shane-S -C /path/to/folder
[04:51] <gumpish> Arg! I ONLY have the resolution 1280x1024 in my xorg.conf, yet gdm continues to operate at 1600x1200. Also I have like 6 different resolutions availalbe under System > Prefs > Screen resolution... I only need ONE.
[04:52] <chrissieX> chaotic: thanks will do. I might come back for more help, though!!!
[04:52] <Chaoticwhizz> ok
[04:52] <Shane-S> LotsOfSexNoLove: does that go before the file name or after?
[04:52] <Shane-S> \
[04:52] <Shane-S> the man confuses me
[04:52] <bastid_raZor> edit your Xorg.conf
[04:53] <Chaoticwhizz> anyone have any input on xorg going to 100% cpu usage
[04:55] <Shane-S> grr...tried tar =xvvzf -C ./joomla filename.tar.gz and I get erroors
[04:55] <Shane-S> not =, but -xvvzf
[04:55] <LotsOfSexNoLove> Shane-S for example: tar -zvxf your.tar.gz -C /where/to/be
[04:55] <Shane-S> ok after
[04:56] <AlexC_> Hey,
[04:56] <JayMac> hi
[04:56] <AlexC_> Does anyone know of a program, CLI or GUI, where I can enter a plain-text string and have it converted to SHA1?
[04:56] <JayMac> ubuntuuu
[04:56] <LjL> !language | LotsOfSexNoLove, i think you should probably change your nickname
[04:56] <ubotu> LotsOfSexNoLove, i think you should probably change your nickname: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[04:56] <JayMac> !language | LotsOfSexNoLove, i think you should probably change your nickname
[04:57] <JayMac> :( i cant do it
[04:57] <LotsOfSexNoLove> ubotu how can i do this ?
[04:57] <AlexC_> JayMac: you can, but the bot is smart
[04:57] <AlexC_> LotsOfSexNoLove: uBOTu is a bot,
[04:57] <rouslan> When I netstat, I get "udp        0      0 webserver:filenet-tms   nsbost01.verizon:domain ESTABLISHED" What is this??
[04:57] <erUSUL> AlexC_: sh1sum
[04:57] <LotsOfSexNoLove> aha thanks
[04:57] <JayMac> use /nick URNEWNAMETEH
[04:57] <rouslan> LotsOfSexNoLove: ubotu is a bot.
[04:57] <Yogi--> better ?
[04:58] <AlexC_> erUSUL: sh1sum command not found,
[04:58] <JayMac> umm
[04:58] <JayMac> i get
[04:58] <JayMac> ls command not found
[04:58] <AlexC_> erUSUL: ah, sha1sum
[04:58] <erUSUL> AlexC_: right :)
[04:58] <JayMac> why does mine say ls command not found
[04:59] <AlexC_> erUSUL: hum this needs to take a file ... I just need to pass it a string
[04:59] <Yogi--> JayMac try whereis ls
[04:59] <jacoblyles> So I downloaded the source for a program. How/where do I compile it?
[04:59] <JayMac> ls:
[04:59] <Thorn> bah
[04:59] <MenZa> jacoblyles: Depends on the type of program :)
[04:59] <Thorn> hamachi on ubuntu giving me grief
[05:00] <Cockroach> apt-get source <name>
[05:00] <jacoblyles> MenZa its an irc client for emacs
[05:00] <MenZa> jacoblyles: I'm assuming the source is in a tarball (tar.gz), so try un-taring that (tar -xvf <filename>)
[05:00] <MenZa> erc?
[05:00] <jacoblyles> rcirc
[05:00] <erUSUL> AlexC_: echo "String" | sha1sum
[05:00] <Ayabara> I'm gonna setup a WinXP/Ubuntu dual boot. Are there any huge disadvantages to using fat32 for the storage partition where I will put docs, audio, video and pictures?
[05:00] <Thorn> yes
[05:00] <MenZa> jacoblyles: I have no idea if that's compiled any differently than most other programs.
[05:00] <Thorn> fat32 is to new
[05:00] <AlexC_> erUSUL: ahh thank you very much
[05:00] <Thorn> use fat16
[05:00] <Thorn> :P
[05:00] <erUSUL> AlexC_: no problem
[05:00] <Ayabara> Thorn, hehe. good point :-)
[05:01] <charlie_> hi all
[05:01] <MenZa> Thorn: O.o
[05:01] <MenZa> hello, charlie_
[05:01] <jacoblyles> MenZa: Well, I've never compiled a program before, but it's not available through apt-get
[05:01] <charlie_> Hello Menza
[05:01] <MenZa> jacoblyles: if you untar it and enter its folder, what's in there?
[05:01] <cx42> re
[05:01] <erUSUL> jacoblyles: in general you should try to use packaged programs when possible
[05:01] <Yogi--> JayMac likes ls is not there... try dir
[05:01] <MenZa> jacoblyles: is there a file called configure?
[05:01] <charlie_> I am having issues with vmware
[05:01] <JayMac> OMG IS NO ONE LISTENING
[05:01] <cx42> I would like to know how I can remove "Shortcuts" and "System" from my Menu in ubuntu ? do you know ?
[05:01] <MenZa> !patience | jacoblyles
[05:01] <JayMac> MY LS IS NOT WORKING !!!!
[05:01] <ubotu> jacoblyles: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[05:01] <owyn> hi
[05:01] <MenZa> sorry
[05:01] <madsporkmurderer> I have re-sized a partition and now on boot, fsck clams that there is a problem with that partition and puts me to a root shell; if I continue booting and fsck the partition once booted it doesn't appear to find any problems. Also I can mount the partition and read data form it no problem- is there a problem with the partition and if so what would be the best way to try to fix it?
[05:01] <bastid_raZor> Ayabara use NTFS for windows and EXT3 for linux. then in linux get ntfs3g < i think
[05:01] <jacoblyles> I actually just found the source code on the internet and pasted it into a file
[05:01] <MenZa> |patience JayMac
[05:01] <JayMac> OMFG
[05:02] <MenZa> JayMac: "ls"?
[05:02] <AlexC_> JayMac: the angrier you get, the less likely someone wil help you
[05:02] <JayMac> yes
[05:02] <RabidWeezle> ubuntu-offtopic
[05:02] <JayMac> ls wont work
[05:02] <RabidWeezle> erm, sorry
[05:02] <AlexC_> JayMac: we dont get paid to sit in here and help you, respect that
[05:02] <Ayabara> bastid_raZor, is write support for ntfs reliable now?
[05:02] <vbabiy> hey guys is there any other photo manager out there other then f-spot
[05:02] <jacoblyles> so, it's not even a tarball
[05:02] <bastid_raZor> Ayabara i've used for nearly 3 months with no issues.
[05:02] <MenZa> jacoblyles: What kind of file do you have, then?
[05:02] <vbabiy> for gnome
[05:02] <Thorn> Write support for NTFS on ubuntu?
[05:02] <bastid_raZor> Ayabara: since January .. my math is bad
[05:03] <MenZa> !ntfs | Thorn
[05:03] <ubotu> Thorn: To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions . For write access see !ntfs-3g or !fuse
[05:03] <Thorn> Where ?!
[05:03] <Thorn> ty!
[05:03] <MenZa> !ntfs-3g | Thorn
[05:03] <JayMac> Google Earth crashes on Ubuntu i686!
[05:03] <ubotu> Thorn: ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[05:03] <MenZa> That's what you want, Thorn
[05:03] <jacoblyles> I pasted the text into a buffer with the same name as the file on the internet and saved it: rcirc.el
[05:03] <MenZa> jacoblyles: Chances are you won't need to compile that
[05:03] <MenZa> jacoblyles: actually; though I'm not certain
[05:03] <MenZa> Let me have a look around
[05:03] <jacoblyles> it looks like it's lisp
[05:03] <Ayabara> bastid_raZor, now _that_ sounds interesting. chances are I'll choose ntfs over fat32 then :-)
[05:03] <Fome> I'm having some problems with my mouse (PS/2 cordless, optical mouse) A lot of times it starts "lagging" = moving slow, buttons don't work, etc. Anyone knows how to fix this?
[05:04] <bastid_raZor> Ayabara to bad windows will not read EXT3 or i would have all my drives ext3
[05:04] <AlexC_> bastid_raZor: it can, with extra programs
[05:04] <MenZa> jacoblyles: I suggest you check out #emacs -- I don't know anything about compiling additions to emacs; but I'm sure they'll happily help you
[05:04] <Ayabara> bastid_raZor, there are plugins for that as well
[05:04] <AlexC_> bastid_raZor: I've never done it, but it is possible
[05:04] <Tom47> Fome it may not be the nmouse it may be that there is a heavy load on the computer .... use top in a terminal window to see what is happening
[05:04] <sebas_> what is vino-server?
[05:04] <bastid_raZor> Ayabara: i just recently killed my dual boot and installed VMWare, now i have no issues
[05:04] <Ayabara> ehh. "plugins"
[05:04] <MenZa> !info vino-server
[05:04] <ubotu> Package vino-server does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[05:05] <JayMac> google earth wont work 64-bit ubuntu 64-bit!!!
[05:05] <Thorn> Hey, i've got yet another problem, heh. Does anyone know where i could get a version of Hamachi that is supported by ubuntu? I didnt find one in the synaptic manager.
[05:05] <Fome> Tom: done that, it doesn't occur when there are CPU spikes in top
[05:05] <MenZa> JayMac: Are you downloading a 64-bit binary?
[05:05] <bastid_raZor> VMWare will let you have windows running virtually.. which is where it should be.. contained in a box inside linux
[05:05] <jacoblyles> MenZa: Sounds good
[05:05] <jacoblyles> thanks
[05:05] <MenZa> np
[05:05] <AlexC_> JayMac: wont work is a very general question, what does it do instead? you need to help us to help you,
[05:05] <JayMac> MenZa: there is'nt a 64-bit google earth
[05:05] <andymeows> hi, is there a way to reconfigure the effect of pressing a button (such as the mute button, or power button)? I'm thinking it has to do with acpi
[05:05] <MenZa> JayMac: Well, there's your answer.
[05:05] <Ayabara> bastid_raZor, I had an Xp virtual machine, but it ran too slowly on my machine :-/
[05:05] <JayMac> it crashes the X server
[05:06] <MenZa> And this is why I always opt for 32-bit.
[05:06] <JayMac> google earth on a 64-bit ubuntu crashes the X server
[05:06] <MenZa> JayMac: We get that
[05:06] <JayMac> :P
[05:06] <Thorn> Then use a Z server
[05:06] <bastid_raZor> Ayabara: i have enough resources, now, that i can spread it around enough to run smoothly.. but i have 2k instead of xp
[05:06] <JayMac> Z server ? :)
[05:06] <Thorn> sarcasm ;-P
[05:06] <MenZa> JayMac: Ignore Thorn.
[05:06] <AlexC_> Thorn: you love confusing people don't you,
[05:06] <bastid_raZor> 2k doesn't nag you to death about WGA
[05:07] <MenZa> JayMac: If there is no 64-bit binary, then obviously you can't run it
[05:07] <MenZa> Thorn: please stop with the rubbish; thank you :)
[05:07] <Thorn> :(
[05:07] <Thorn> :P
[05:07] <bastid_raZor> besides softwarepatch.com will give you ALL the updates and patches for windows without windows update
[05:07] <Mr> hello folks :)
[05:07] <MenZa> Some people here will take your jokes seriously.
[05:07] <MenZa> Hello Mr :)
[05:07] <GrueTamer> hi Mr
[05:07] <Mr> can you give me some help please
[05:07] <Mr> i have installed ubuntu
[05:07] <AlexC_> we cant help if you ask no question,
[05:07] <MenZa> Well, state your proble, Mr :)
[05:07] <Mr> and my wireless wont work
[05:07] <MenZa> Ah, wireless
[05:07] <MenZa> Mr, I suggest you check out this link:
[05:07] <Mr> lol
[05:08] <GrueTamer> its always the wireless, isnt it
[05:08] <Ayabara> bastid_raZor, I have used ext2fs in windows for working with ext3 partitions. Only issues I had was some charset stuff because of my nordic letters (that I really shouldn't put in filenames anyway)
[05:08] <MenZa> !wireless | Mr
[05:08] <unfold> hrhr, wireless isn't in linux
[05:08] <ubotu> Mr: Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[05:08] <unfold> +fun
[05:08] <Mr> thnx
[05:08] <MenZa> No problem.
[05:08] <Ayabara> bastid_raZor, could be you can get rid of ntfs if you want :-)
[05:08] <tom> how can i reload a kernel module after returning from hibernation?
[05:09] <bastid_raZor> honestly i have 3 drives two ext3 one ntfs which holds my old windows stuff.. i don't even use windows from boot anymore.. VMWare allows me to do enough that i'll never boot in to windows again
[05:09] <Ranbee> hi, i just noticed all my gstreamer packages are orphaned. is there something i can install to fix that?
[05:09] <MenZa> !offtopic > bastid_raZor (Please see the /query from ubotu)
[05:10] <Mr> damn
[05:10] <bastid_raZor> MenZa: that was very much ON topic
[05:10] <MenZa> Support request, bastid_raZor?
[05:10] <Mr> im using a WMP300N and its not supported
[05:10] <unfold> ranbee: http://jokosher.python-hosting.com/wiki/InstallingCvsGstreamer
[05:10] <Ranbee> thanks unfold :)
[05:10] <unfold> the cvs-version is quite a bit less bug-ridden
[05:10] <rouslan> Anyone here familiar with hosting servers?
[05:11] <bastid_raZor> MenZa: extra info to help persuade to use a better OS.
[05:11] <Ranbee> ok
[05:11] <MenZa> bastid_raZor: ah, my apologies
[05:11] <unfold> though installation is more complicated
[05:11] <MenZa> Mr: the wmp300n?
[05:11] <gnomefreak> bastid_raZor: its not support its offtopic
[05:11] <Mr> Lynksys
[05:11] <MenZa> Mr: It's possible to install it, apparently
[05:11] <MenZa> Mr: I see some guys have done it on Mandriva
[05:11] <Ayabara> bastid_raZor, thanks for the help and the offtopic comments :-)
[05:11] <Mr> oh
[05:11] <MenZa> Mr: So I don't see why you shouldn't be able to on Ubuntu
[05:11] <Mr> well i put the cd in and it dont work
[05:12] <Mr> i am totaly new to linux
[05:12] <MenZa> Mr: Ah :)
[05:12] <gnomefreak> Mr: set your pc to boot off cd
[05:12] <Journeyman> I am going to get a cloth diaper for my kid and have either the ubuntu logo or baby tux embroidered on the back
[05:12] <Mr> ok
[05:12] <MenZa> Mr: The biggest problem with Linux, currently, is the lack of wireless support, really
[05:12] <Journeyman> not sure which one I should do
[05:12] <GrueTamer> Journeyman: do tux
[05:12] <Mr> i can see lol
[05:12] <MenZa> Mr: Because a lot of manufacturers don't create Linux drivers
[05:12] <strabes> Journeyman: they have baby clothes on the cafepress store
[05:12] <gnomefreak> Mr: in the bios
[05:12] <Mr> ye
[05:13] <Journeyman> strabes, I know
[05:13] <MenZa> gnomefreak: It's the wireless driver, not the live cd
[05:13] <Mr> linksys says just windows
[05:13] <gnomefreak> Journeyman: strabes please take it to #ubuntu-offtopic
[05:13] <Mr> on the cd
[05:13] <gnomefreak> MenZa: ah
[05:13] <MenZa> Mr: I'm not a wiz with ndiswrapper, so I'm not going to guide you through it, but I'm sure SOMEONE will be able to
[05:13] <Journeyman> aye
[05:13] <MenZa> gnomefreak: you, possibly?
[05:13] <gnomefreak> MenZa: mr iirc linksys is supported
[05:13] <Mr> i hope so lol
[05:13] <gnomefreak> !hardware | mr
[05:13] <ubotu> mr: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[05:13] <Mr> huh?
[05:14] <gnomefreak> Mr: go to that link
[05:14] <Mr> okay
[05:14] <gnomefreak> Mr: look for yout wireless card
[05:14] <MenZa> Mr: http://mandrivausers.org/index.php?showtopic=37240 <- there are (vague) instructions for Mandriva there, but I believe you're going to have to get a newer version than the one in the repositories. Do as gnomefreak tells you :)
[05:14] <gnomefreak> your*
[05:14] <gucao> is any one used wink?
[05:14] <Mr> yok thnx guys
[05:14] <MenZa> np :)
[05:14] <wols_> gnomefreak: considering linksys doesn't make a single chip but the devices they sell use many different ones: how can you be sure?
[05:14] <MenZa> wols_: the WMP300N appears to work on Mandriva
[05:14] <MenZa> (The card in question)
[05:15] <gnomefreak> wols_: cant without trying but iirc the info on that link i gave should have model munbers
[05:15] <wols_> ah. specific linksys card
[05:15] <RabidWeezle> my tty's aren't taking up my whole screen, actually about half of my laptop screen, I have a dell c610 laptop, how can I set the resolution for the tty's?

[05:16] <Icehawk78> I had a question about apt-get. I tried running apt-get update, and I got an error.

[05:17] <RabidWeezle> erm
[05:17] <Icehawk78> It's not open - I don't have a UI installed.
[05:17] <MenZa> Icehawk78: run it as root, and remember to close Synaptic or any other package manager running
[05:17] <RabidWeezle> GenNMX,
[05:17] <RabidWeezle> lol
[05:17] <Icehawk78> It's on my server.
[05:17] <Mr> wow this instruction stuff is complicated
[05:17] <GrueTamer> are you superuser?
[05:17] <MenZa> Icehawk78: are you doing sudo?
[05:17] <GenNMX> RabidWeezle: If you're using X, just set it to 800x600 or greater
[05:17] <Icehawk78> Oh. No.
[05:17] <MenZa> There's your problem :)
[05:17] <Icehawk78> Thanks, that fixed it.
[05:17] <gnomefreak> Icehawk78: you used sudo?
[05:17] <MenZa> No problem.
[05:17] <Mr> whats the heck is a new tarball?!
[05:17] <GenNMX> RabidWeezle: It's a limitation of the LCD's type
[05:18] <gnomefreak> Mr: something.tar.gz or something.tar.bz2
[05:18] <Mr> oh
[05:18] <RabidWeezle> ahh well
[05:18] <RabidWeezle> I can live with what I got I guess
[05:18] <gnomefreak> Mr: they are compressed archives
[05:18] <RabidWeezle> just looks stupid
[05:18] <RabidWeezle> lol
[05:18] <Mr> my problem is all these files i need
[05:18] <erUSUL> Mr: a tarball is a tar.gz or tar.bz2 file (a zip)
[05:18] <Mr> when i boot into linux, i have no internet
[05:18] <MenZa> Mr: connect it to an ethernet port?
[05:18] <MenZa> err, wired network*
[05:19] <Mr> impossible im afraid
[05:19] <MenZa> ("Connect it to an ethernet port"?)
[05:19] <MenZa> Oh, why?
[05:19] <Mr> im currently miles away from the router
[05:19] <MenZa> Oh.
[05:19] <Mr> well not litteraly
[05:19] <gnomefreak> Mr: use a differnt OS and save to disk or usb stick
[05:19] <cris> hi, I installed the package sun-java6-jdk on Ubuntu Feisty 64, but some things arent installed, like javaws and firefox plugin, why ?
[05:19] <Mr> i was thinking that
[05:19] <MenZa> cris: I think the jdk is the development kit
[05:19] <MenZa> cris: the java plugin is called sun-java6-plugin I think
[05:19] <MenZa> Or similar
[05:19] <gnomefreak> Mr: packages.ubuntu.com will have the packages you are looking for
[05:20] <Mr> but one of my friends who uses linux said it would be really difficult do use a usb stick with software for linux
[05:20] <gnomefreak> Mr: nope
[05:20] <Mr> or something
[05:20] <gnomefreak> Mr: plugin and go
[05:20] <unfold> that's not true
[05:20] <yomm> exit
[05:20] <MenZa> gnomefreak: mostly :P
[05:20] <gnomefreak> MenZa: true
[05:20] <MenZa> I've had to mount mine manually now and then
[05:20] <Mr> well
[05:20] <cris> Menza, "apt-cache" doesn't list to me "sun-java6-plugin" package
[05:20] <Mr> i thought the res problem was my GFX drivers
[05:20] <gnomefreak> MenZa: i have one i nee dto but never screwed with it
[05:20] <MenZa> cris: sudo apt-get update
[05:21] <MenZa> cris: I just found it, personally: sun-java6-plugin - The Java(TM) Plug-in, Java SE 6
[05:21] <unfold> mr: usb sticks are usually automatically mounted in /media/disk
[05:21] <Mr> and i said i will download the drivers on windows then boot into linux and install them
[05:21] <Gwall> i heard fedora was better than ubuntu
[05:21] <unfold> mr: there you can install packages with "dpkg -i <file>"
[05:21] <MenZa> Gwall: that's a mtter of opinion
[05:21] <Mr> ok
[05:21] <gnomefreak> Gwall: than join #fedora
[05:21] <bobnn> Gwall only if you like being redhat's alpha tester
[05:21] <Gwall> nope gnomefreak i like ubuntu
[05:21] <Mr> wow this is confusing
[05:22] <MenZa> Gwall: some people prefer Ubuntu, some prefer Gentoo, some prefer Fedora.
[05:22] <Gwall> but i just heard xD
[05:22] <gnomefreak> Mr: you will also need all the dependencies along with what you need
[05:22] <Mr> all the dependiacies?
[05:22] <Gwall> yah ubuntu seems simple and easy to me
[05:22] <cris> Menza, it lists java6-bin, java6-demo, doc, fonts, javadb, jdk and jre, but sun-java6-plugin nope
[05:22] <MenZa> Gwall: that's the beauty of Linux; you can choose :)
[05:22] <Gwall> yeah idd
[05:22] <MenZa> cris: try doing sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin
[05:22] <gnomefreak> Gwall: you hear things join #ubuntu-offtopic to say things that are not support related
[05:22] <Gwall> and... ITS FREE
[05:22] <Gwall> sorry gnomefreak il try keep it on topic mate
[05:22] <MenZa> heh :)
[05:22] <MenZa> Good, good
[05:23] <gnomefreak> Mr: yes things the app needs to have. they are moarked in red on packages.ubuntu.com
[05:23] <Aerotwelve> Yeah
[05:23] <Mr> y cant linux be as simple as windows?
[05:23] <gnomefreak> Mr: because you used windows all your life
[05:23] <Mr> lol
[05:23] <Mr> i know
[05:23] <gnomefreak> Mr: you just started with linux
[05:23] <MenZa> Mr: It's much simpler than Windows in a lot of aspects
[05:23] <Ernz> Is anyone else's ubuntu pasting asterisks at the moment for no reason????
[05:23] <cris> Menza: sun-java6-plugin doesnt exists on my repository
[05:23] <MenZa> Mr: Trust me; when you get your wireless working, you will love it
[05:23] <Mr> it seems impossible
[05:23] <Sianis_> hi all
[05:23] <gnomefreak> cris: are you one edyg or feisty?
[05:23] <Icehawk78> So, I had a question in general - since Dell started packaging Ubuntu with their PCs, has the support community seen a large increase in help requests?
[05:23] <Luxurious> I see in the install manager that I can install some Kubuntu GUIs, what happens if I do that on GNOME?  Does it work at all?
[05:23] <gnomefreak> edgy
[05:23] <MenZa> cris: you on edgy?
[05:23] <MenZa> ahh
[05:23] <gnomefreak> cris: its in backports for edgy
[05:24] <unfold> menza: is it simpler? in my experience windows is usally simpler
[05:24] <cris> Menza, I'm with Feisty
[05:24] <gnomefreak> cris: and in multiverse in feisty
[05:24] <MenZa> unfold: Not necessarily
[05:24] <gnomefreak> cris: enable multiverse repo
[05:24] <MenZa> cris: Have you enabled all repositories in Feisty?
[05:24] <Mr> the only reason i wanted linux was for the beryl thing
[05:24] <Spee_Der> Sianis_: hello.
[05:24] <gnomefreak> cris: make sure its not backports
[05:24] <MenZa> Mr: There's more good stuff to Linux than just Beryl
[05:24] <Mr> lol
[05:24] <Mr> like?
[05:24] <MenZa> Mr: It's intimidating at first, but you'll love it
[05:24] <Spee_Der> Good morning everyone.
[05:24] <viljamo> Got a problem installing xmms2. It demands sqlite3 and it prompts I havent installed it but when I do sqlite -version it gives me 3.3.13
[05:24] <MenZa> Mr: I find the command line is insanely helpful for a lot of things
[05:24] <unfold> menza: i often have to dig myself in manuals and howtos for simple configuration...
[05:25] <cris> gnomefreak, multiverse, is enabled:  deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty multiverse
[05:25] <Mr> well another thing that put me off ubuntu was the desktop images
[05:25] <Mr> there so damn big and clumpy
[05:25] <gnomefreak> cris: your missing universe
[05:25] <gnomefreak> cris: you need both
[05:25] <MenZa> Mr: change them :)
[05:25] <unfold> mr: that depends on how you configure them.
[05:25] <Mr> i had a look and gave up
[05:25] <cris> gnomefreak, universe is enabled too:  deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ feisty universe
[05:25] <gnomefreak> cris: paste your /etc/apt/sources.list to pastebin
[05:25] <killerbunny> Mr, so you are basicly picking your OS by the desktop effects, and pretty pictures ?
[05:25] <MenZa> cris: sudo apt-get update
[05:25] <Mr> i right clicked to go into properties and it didnt exist :/
[05:25] <killerbunny> Mr, nice on =/

[05:26] <Mr> where is taskmanager?!
[05:26] <gnomefreak> !info sun-java6-plugin
[05:26] <shijirou_> Mr, there is such a thing as changing desktops... >.>
[05:26] <MenZa> cris: that's weird
[05:26] <Aerotwelve> Does anyone know how to get the core Microsoft fonts in Ubuntu?
[05:26] <ubotu> sun-java6-plugin: The Java(TM) Plug-in, Java SE 6. In component multiverse, is optional. Version 6-00-2ubuntu2 (feisty), package size 1 kB, installed size 72 kB
[05:26] <gnomefreak> ^^^
[05:26] <shijirou_> again Mr, this is NOT windows...
[05:26] <Aerotwelve> I had them on my last install, but forgot the command
[05:26] <killerbunny> Mr, this is ubuntu, not a windows hack
[05:26] <MenZa> gnomefreak: it does exist :)
[05:26] <gnomefreak> MenZa: he is missing a repo
[05:26] <Mr> i know
[05:26] <MenZa> gnomefreak: Mm, universe is enabled
[05:26] <MenZa> hmm

[05:26] <gnomefreak> MenZa: wait for it to be posted
[05:26] <MenZa> gnomefreak: I will
[05:26] <viljamo> Aerotwelve: I think the package is called mstcorefonts
[05:26] <Mr> oh

[05:26] <jrib> Mr: system -. administration -> System Monitor  is similar to task manager

[05:30] <Yogi--> mr just apt-get install ndiswrapper-<version>.tar.gz

[05:32] <MenZa> cris: I'm not sure you can, but let me check Sun's website

[05:36] <Mr> hopefylly
[05:36] <MenZa> gnomefreak: the other day?
[05:36] <MenZa> Mr: good luck
[05:36] <ubunt1> hey you
[05:36] <MenZa> And back, mico_, cris
[05:36] <MenZa> hello, ubunt1
[05:36] <ubunt1> Ubuntu gaim is not existing anymore
[05:36] <gnomefreak> MenZa: yeah friday they were down most of the day
[05:36] <ubunt1> why don't ubuntu feisty remove it
[05:36] <gnomefreak> ubunt1: yes it does
[05:36] <ubunt1> HI men
[05:36] <ubunt1> gnomefreak: no man
[05:36] <gnomefreak> ubunt1: why are you removing gaim?
[05:37] <ubunt1> enter in #gaim and they will tell you
[05:37] <gnomefreak> ubunt1: gaim is still around under a differnet name
[05:37] <gnomefreak> ubunt1: all it did was change names
[05:37] <rollerskatejamms> he probably wants pidgin
[05:37] <MenZa> ubunt1: The package still exists, in Feisty. Pidgin, Gaim's successor, will be in Pidgin
[05:37] <MenZa> Sorr
[05:37] <ubunt1> this is pidgin but no gaim
[05:37] <MenZa> Gutsy*
[05:37] <gnomefreak> MenZa: gutsy
[05:37] <ubunt1> why they don't change the name too
[05:37] <MenZa> yeah, gnomefreak
[05:37] <MenZa> Freudian slip
[05:37] <MenZa> ubunt1: Pidgin is a wee bit different from Gaim
[05:37] <MenZa> ubunt1: Different UI and whatnot; so it's not just a name change
[05:38] <gnomefreak> ubunt1: they cant send it to feisty just over a name change
[05:38] <ubunt1> (08:36:10 AM) rekkanoryo: which means ubuntu users need to compile from source, or they can grab a prebuilt binary from some random place on the net and forget about us providing support
[05:38] <rollerskatejamms> you can get pidgin from getdeb
[05:38] <gnomefreak> ubunt1: that wouldnt be safe and can cause lots of issues
[05:38] <MenZa> ubunt1: You can download Pidgin packages from http://getdeb.net, but not from the repositories
[05:38] <Badzo> Hello
[05:38] <MenZa> Hi Badzo
[05:38] <ubunt1> MenZa: before 3 days is not there
[05:38] <rollerskatejamms> the pidgin from getdeb is safe but only in the !worksforme sense
[05:38] <MenZa> Sorry, ubunt1?
[05:39] <Badzo> I've got a problem. When i am trying to install sth it says that i dont have sdl 1.2.0, and when i check in synaptic it said i have it
[05:39] <W8TAH> theres a dependancy package for pidgin, that you have to build first but i cant remember what its called
[05:39] <ubunt1> MenZa: amd maybe they are putting it .
[05:39] <Badzo> that's everything from my console
[05:39] <Badzo> http://www.wklej.org/id/71b94ae23d
[05:39] <MenZa> ubunt1: I don't understand you
[05:39] <ubunt1> MenZa: i know getdeb before there didn't have pdgin
[05:39] <MenZa> Getdeb.net does have .debs
[05:39] <ubunt1> no
[05:40] <ubunt1> i know getdeb
[05:40] <Luxurious> What happens if I install something like Konversation on Ubuntu?
[05:40] <rollerskatejamms> anyway gaim2b6 works fine. I'd just stick with that till gutsy to be safe. I never install anything not in the repositories unless I really need it
[05:40] <rollerskatejamms> luxurious it works fine
[05:40] <Luxurious> rollerskatejamms: That's nice to hear.  Thanks a bunch! :-)
[05:40] <MenZa> Luxurious: No problems :)
[05:40] <MenZa> It will run fun
[05:40] <mico_> MenZa, i try it and with Cedega and its want start
[05:40] <MenZa> fine*
[05:40] <bastid_raZor> Luxurious: i use several Kubuntu applications on Ubuntu.. Ktorrent, Konversation
[05:40] <rollerskatejamms> kde apps work great on ubuntu. I use k3b all the time
[05:40] <MenZa> mico_: Urm, how did you install Steam in wine?
[05:40] <MenZa> rollerskatejamms: and me; and Amarok
[05:40] <bastid_raZor> k3b rules it
[05:41] <rollerskatejamms> yeah and ktorrent is waaaay better then gnome-btdownload
[05:41] <GenNMX> If you like KDE, try Kubuntu.
[05:41] <rollerskatejamms> eh I'm happy with rhythmbox exaile or banshee
[05:41] <ubunt1> try azureus
[05:41] <mico_> wine counterstrike_final_digitalzone.exe
[05:41] <SatanGolga> or dont
[05:41] <bastid_raZor> ktorrent is better
[05:41] <SatanGolga> 100% CPU here
[05:41] <rollerskatejamms> azureus sucks on linux. Super buggy
[05:41] <ubunt1> but download the latest from azureus becouse from synaptic it give bug
[05:41] <bastid_raZor> i like ktorrent over azueus the cpu eater
[05:41] <gnomefreak> guys stay on topic
[05:41] <MenZa> mico_: Umm, I suggest you download Steam's own .exe
[05:41] <ubunt1> rollerskatejamms: man i update it to 3.0 and it work
[05:41] <MenZa> Yes, topic, people
[05:42] <ubunt1> rollerskatejamms: do you want to say how to update
[05:42] <unfold> not true. azureus runs wonderfully here.
[05:42] <Genomsaren> hi
[05:42] <rollerskatejamms> anyway I don't reccomend kubuntu. I find its not stable at all
[05:42] <GenNMX> Default Ubuntu == Gnome, KDE Ubuntu == Kubuntu, xfce4 Ubuntu == Xubuntu
[05:42] <MenZa> !offtopic
[05:42] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:42] <mico_> Tnx mate i will try to do that
[05:42] <rollerskatejamms> not on any laptop I try anyway
[05:42] <MenZa> mico_: steampowered.com provides a .msi package
[05:42] <ubunt1> rollerskatejamms: it work man.
[05:42] <TwigEther> MenZa: msiexec (from wine) works
[05:42] <MenZa> mico_: so you need to do $ msiexec steaminstall.exe
[05:43] <MenZa> TwigEther: yup
[05:43] <rollerskatejamms> no msixec steaminstall.msi hehe
[05:43] <MenZa> er, yeah
[05:43] <MenZa> :P
[05:43] <rollerskatejamms> You don't msiexec an ex
[05:43] <MenZa> Freudian slip
[05:43] <ubunt1> rollerskatejamms: wine steam.exe
[05:43] <mico_> ok MenZa  :))) i will try now
[05:43] <MenZa> ubunt1: No, the steam executable is a .msi
[05:43] <MenZa> mico_: :)
[05:44] <MenZa> ubunt1: Installer, that is
[05:44] <Ar-Pharazon> Hello, I've got an install question, but it's gonna take a while to explain so if anyone has the patience...
[05:44] <rollerskatejamms> the steam INSTALLER is an msi
[05:44] <illriginal> Anyone know how to boost the performance of operations on ubuntu?
[05:44] <MenZa> rollerskatejamms: yes.
[05:44] <Spee_Der_> #hamradio
[05:44] <MenZa> Ar-Pharazon: we're all ears.
[05:44] <rollerskatejamms> its really hard to use irc on a blackberry :-P
[05:44] <ubunt1> MenZa: i have the msi on the e-maikl
[05:44] <MenZa> ubunt1: It's also on steampowered.com :p
[05:44] <MenZa> Alas, remain on topic
[05:45] <erUSUL> illriginal: define "operations"
[05:45] <MenZa> mico_: Is it installing properly?
[05:45] <ubunt1> MenZa: they say that?\
[05:45] <MenZa> ubunt1: Sorry?
[05:45] <illriginal> erUSUL like speed up the clicking of menu items.. say if I click the Main Menu
[05:46] <CommanderCool> how to get the combination "alt"+"ctrl" work like "altgr"?!
[05:46] <mico_> uhh i dont know
[05:46] <MenZa> Please, remain on topic, ubunt1
[05:46] <illriginal> erUSUL or when I open a program
[05:46] <mico_> i on that site and i have download
[05:46] <SatanGolga> MenZa: here's a topic for you - Segmentation fault (core dumped) when apt-get install/update/upgrade  do you have any ideas how to solve that?
[05:46] <rollerskatejamms> illriginal are you using an old pc?
[05:46] <mico_> SteamInstall.msi
[05:46] <Ar-Pharazon> Ok so I had 2 Windows XP installs on 2 different primary partitions.
[05:46] <MenZa> mico_: mico, try doing cd ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files
[05:46] <Ar-Pharazon> Then I went and installed 64 bit kubuntu.
[05:46] <illriginal> rollerskatejames... sort of... P4/1GB Ram 256Nvidia PCI vid card.
[05:46] <MenZa> No clue, SatanGolga
[05:46] <MenZa> Sorry
[05:47] <SatanGolga> ok :/
[05:47] <MenZa> SatanGolga: stick around, someone might know :)
[05:47] <thirdy_> is there a function in some irc client, wer you get to set auto join channels?  I'm using xchat
[05:47] <rollerskatejamms> illriginal oh that's not so old. But if you want super speed get xubuntu
[05:47] <MenZa> thirdy_: Yes, xchat will do that
[05:47] <Ar-Pharazon> Then my C: windows went in the D: windows' place on the boot menu, and the d: stopped booting completely.
[05:47] <CommanderCool> how to get the combination "alt"+"ctrl" work like "altgr"?!
[05:47] <SatanGolga> i will, thanks
[05:47] <bastid_raZor> i use Xchat
[05:47] <erUSUL> illriginal: it should be pretty fast with this specs... i do not know any "magic" thing to boost performance
[05:47] <Ar-Pharazon> I then installed gnome on my kubuntu and removed KDE
[05:47] <MenZa> thirdy_: Right click -> Networks -> Right click the network you want -> Settings (or something similar)
[05:47] <shredds> usb2 flash drive won't auto-mount in Feisty
[05:47] <illriginal> heh... i don't really want to change my window manager, xubuntu seems so boring lookin :x
[05:47] <shredds> it used to
[05:47] <rollerskatejamms> I'm lame. I use xchat-gnome.
[05:47] <marcio> hi
[05:47] <MenZa> !offtopic
[05:48] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[05:48] <shredds> and i can use gparted
[05:48] <MenZa> mico_: Are you in there?
[05:48] <rollerskatejamms> illriginal its sooooo fast.
[05:48] <shredds> to mount and unmount
[05:48] <MenZa> Please, guys, remain on topic
[05:48] <Ar-Pharazon> Now it looks like I have 2 ubuntus too in the loader.
[05:48] <rollerskatejamms> illriginal just install xubuntu-desktop package and use the apps under gnome
[05:48] <illriginal> erUSUL, with windows xp... you can edit the speed of menus opening, also disable unneeded programs when logged onto windows
[05:48] <Ar-Pharazon> Now I intend to install 32 bit ubuntu, and maybe fix the whole mess while I'm at it.
[05:48] <rollerskatejamms> illriginal install sysv-rc-conf to disable uneeded services
[05:48] <mico_> Ok
[05:49] <mico_> iam there
[05:49] <ubunt1> uhhh
[05:49] <illriginal> sweet, thanks rollerskatejames
[05:49] <MenZa> mico_: good, try doing ls | grep valve
[05:49] <thirdy_> MenZa: can't find networks
[05:49] <rollerskatejamms> Illriginal and you can change menu speeds in gconf-editor somewherew
[05:49] <MenZa> thirdy_: Hmm, do you have a File menu? It's been ages since I used XChat
[05:49] <mico_> ok
[05:49] <CommanderCool> i want "alt"+"ctrl" to work as a third level chooser...is that possible?
[05:49] <MenZa> mico_: do you get any output?
[05:49] <mico_> nothing
[05:49] <rollerskatejamms> for example you may want to disable or remove sillly bluetooth services
[05:49] <MenZa> ok, mico_
[05:49] <MenZa> try doing ls | grep Steam
[05:50] <Djgeorgie> hi all
[05:50] <thirdy_> MenZa, preferences don't help me either
[05:50] <rollerskatejamms> try doing sudo fluxcapacitor --fix
[05:50] <mico_> ok
[05:50] <egale> moin moin
[05:50] <thirdy_> MenZa, wat client do u use
[05:50] <thirdy_> ?
[05:50] <mico_> nothing again
[05:50] <MenZa> thirdy_: irssi. Try doing XChat (upper left corner) -> Networks
[05:50] <MenZa> Then the steps I said
[05:50] <MenZa> mico_: that's good
[05:50] <MenZa> mico_: cd ~
[05:50] <dawn_chorus> CommanderCool, try searching System > Pref's > Keyboard > Layout Options > Third Level Choosers
[05:51] <Djgeorgie> Hey people, do you know some way to create bootable DVD from the original desktop CD?
[05:51] <thirdy_> MenZa, ok found it
[05:51] <MenZa> mico_: now wget http://steampowered.com/download/SteamInstall.msi
[05:51] <CommanderCool> dawn_chorus, i actually did that, but there is no option for the combination "alt"+"ctrl"
[05:51] <MenZa> thirdy_: seperate several channels with comma, so e.g. #ubuntu,#ubuntu-offtopic,#debian and so on
[05:51] <thirdy_> MenZa, wats the best eye candy irc client?
[05:51] <dawn_chorus> Djgeorgie, you can write the livecd to a dvd.  i've done it plenty of times.
[05:51] <MenZa> thirdy_: xchat
[05:52] <thirdy_> MenZa, thanx!!
[05:52] <kbrooks> hi
[05:52] <MenZa> No problem
[05:52] <Djgeorgie> but how to do it?
[05:52] <kbrooks> Top 10 Ubuntu tweaks?
[05:52] <MenZa> mico_: Have you run the wget command I specified above yet?
[05:52] <mico_> ok
[05:52] <mico_> i get it
[05:52] <MenZa> mico_: when the wget finishes, do msiexec SteamInstall.msi
[05:53] <lunixman> why is it that in ubuntu there's no Open Terminal Here option when i rightclick?
[05:53] <MenZa> mico_: then follow on-screen instructions; just let it install to the default directories and so on
[05:53] <fuzzy_logic> hi people.. does anyone know how i can mount a file from some other computer??
[05:53] <aunes> is there a security tool that will add someone who is attempting to crack your machine to hosts.deny? I had over 20,000 attempts on my ftp server last night.

[05:54] <MenZa> mico_: I don't understand what you're saying
[05:54] <Ar-Pharazon> Well, anyone?
[05:54] <dawn_chorus> CommanderCool, try this site: http://www.linuxformat.co.uk/wiki/index.php/Setting_Key_Bindings_in_GNOME
[05:54] <bastid_raZor> aunes: wow, and they never got in?
[05:54] <MenZa> mico_: Actually, give me a second
[05:54] <MenZa> mico_: Ignore that MSI package
[05:54] <mc44> mark__: #ardour ?
[05:55] <mark__> yes
[05:55] <mark__> for audio senquencer
[05:55] <mico_> mico@mico-desktop:~$ msiexec SteamInstall.msi
[05:55] <mico_> Usage:
[05:55] <mico_>   Install a product:
[05:55] <mico_> Ok ok
[05:55] <mico_> I will stop
[05:55] <dawn_chorus> mico_, please don't flood.
[05:55] <mico_> sry
[05:55] <mc44> mark__: /join #ardour
[05:55] <MenZa> mico_: Yes, I noticed that
[05:55] <Tom47> mark_ /j #ardour
[05:55] <MenZa> mico_: I'm just looking for a .exe to simplify the process
[05:56] <dawn_chorus> mico_, it's ok.  you can paste stuff on a website and then give us a link (when that sort of thing is needed).  :)
[05:56] <MenZa> I lie, mico_
[05:56] <mark__>  /join #ardour
[05:56] <MenZa> mico_: do msiexec /i SteamInstall.msi
[05:56] <SurgeX> can someone help me. when I change resolution X restarts, I'm using xserver-xorg-video-intel and got GMA900. I dont want to use 915resolution
[05:56] <Ar-Pharazon> I really just need to get rid of Windows' loader and make grub point to C:, D:, and 32 bit ubuntu.
[05:57] <MenZa> mico_: Is it installing?
[05:57] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, that's a simple enough procedure.  pastebin your menu.lst + output of 'sudo fdisk -l' (that's an "ell", not a number one).
[05:57] <kandala> Hello all. HELP PLEASE..... When I boot my system, I am being asked to run fsck manually. But I forgot my system's root password. Is there a way to reset it at this point?
[05:58] <mico_> updating steam but its 0 % now
[05:58] <MenZa> mico_: good, just leave it updating
[05:58] <Ar-Pharazon> I don't understand that.
[05:58] <MenZa> mico_: tell me when it's finished
[05:58] <Ar-Pharazon> What's pastebin?
[05:58] <MenZa> Ar-Pharazon: do gedit /etc/grub/menu.lst
[05:58] <MenZa> !pastebin | Ar-Pharazon
[05:58] <aunes> kandala, http://www.google.com/?q=reset+root+password  <-try that
[05:58] <ubotu> Ar-Pharazon: 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)
[05:58] <mico_> ok :) but its stil on Zero :)
[05:58] <Pale_folklore> how can I connect to umbranet?  I don't see it listed in the servers...
[05:58] <kandala> aunes: ok! Thanks
[05:58] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: Add it
[05:58] <illriginal> rollerskatejames, is this a good little tutorial to speed things up? http://tvease.net/wiki/index.php?title=Tweak_ubuntu_for_speed
[05:58] <dawn_chorus> kandala, reboot into single user mode.  then 'pssword'
[05:59] <FordCortina> i've got a load of files in a with some special characters in the filenames, anybody know how to automatically munge the filenames back to standard ascii?? (The full file name doesn't need to be preserved)
[05:59] <aunes> kandala, http://www.google.com/search?q=reset+root+password  <-try that
[05:59] <slowdeath> mico: what version of wine are you using?
[05:59] <aunes> (wrong address)
[05:59] <MenZa> mico_: 0.9.38
[05:59] <MenZa> err
[05:59] <MenZa> slowdeath
[05:59] <mico_> yes 0.9.38
[05:59] <slowdeath> steam is bugged on .0.9.38
[05:59] <MenZa> slowdeath: We're just waiting for it to install Steam now.
[05:59] <Pale_folklore> MenZa: how to I add it?   I don't see that option
[05:59] <MenZa> slowdeath: it's WHAT
[05:59] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: You're in xchat?
[05:59] <slowdeath> i had to go back to 0.9.37
[05:59] <MenZa> slowdeath: I need to test that myself
[05:59] <MenZa> I'll just confirm it
[06:00] <slowdeath> ok
[06:00] <dxdemetriou> When I do sudo apt-get update I have this: Failed to fetch http://ubuntu.beryl-project.org/dists/feisty/main/binary-i386/Packages.bz2  MD5Sum mismatch. I saw the file and are the same
[06:00] <Pale_folklore> MenZa: yes
[06:00] <MenZa> slowdeath: Steam starts.
[06:00] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: right
[06:00] <Ar-Pharazon> I can still get to menu.lst from the live cd, right?
[06:00] <mico_> ok
[06:00] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: Click the "add" button
[06:00] <slowdeath> yea, but it was staying on updating for a while, then disconnecting
[06:00] <mico_> now its work
[06:00] <Ar-Pharazon> Oh and, I do plan to install 32 bit before fixing the boot menu
[06:00] <dawn_chorus> dxdemetriou, beryl's in the feisty repo's.  no need for beryl-project's, AFAIK.
[06:00] <mico_> but stop again
[06:00] <MenZa> slowdeath: you're right, it crashes
[06:00] <MenZa> Damnit.
[06:00] <MenZa> Thank you
[06:01] <dxdemetriou> dawn_chorus, thanks, I didn't notice that :)
[06:01] <slowdeath> i spent about 3 hours beating my head on the monitor, then i rolled wine back...lol
[06:01] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, yes.  (Remember - prefix my name when messaging me).
[06:01] <dawn_chorus> dxdemetriou, comes in handy.  easier than booting into livecd.  :)
[06:01] <Pale_folklore> MenZa: I don't see and Add button anywhere
[06:02] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: Go to XChat (upper-left corner), choose Networks. Then Add.
[06:02] <MenZa> mico_: down-grade wine with this package: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/ubuntu/feisty/wine_0.9.37~winehq0~ubuntu~7.04-1_i386.deb (if you're on 32-bit)
[06:02] <dxdemetriou> dawn_chorus, I checked now and there isn't any force version. I need it to make install to other pc
[06:02] <FordCortina> anybody know how to get rid of special characters from a bunch of filenames?
[06:03] <Pale_folklore> MenZa: no add under Network pulldown
[06:03] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus, I can't find grub under etc.
[06:03] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: Huh? Are you using xchat-gnome or xchat?
[06:03] <jenda> is libdvdcss in the repos? It's causing a huge debate in my loco :D
[06:03] <sebas_> I plugged in a usb key but it is not automatically mounted. Is there any way to force it?
[06:03] <MenZa> jenda: It's in Medibuntu, I think
[06:03] <wols_> jenda: of course not
[06:03] <dawn_chorus> dxdemetriou, there's a "download only" flag.  you can download the .deb (and all the dependencies) and then transfer them to the new comp.
[06:03] <Pale_folklore> MenZa: xchat GNOME
[06:03] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: ah
[06:03] <wols_> !css
[06:03] <ubotu> For playing DVD, see http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/video.html - "libdvdcss2" can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - Try k9copy (available in !Universe) for backing up DVDs
[06:04] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, grub will be in /boot/grub
[06:04] <MenZa> Lemme see how that works, Pale_folklore
[06:04] <Pale_folklore> sorry for the caps
[06:04] <MenZa> That's no problem, that's what it's called.
[06:04] <jenda> MenZa: and who runs those?
[06:04] <dxdemetriou> dawn_chorus, maybe is my mistake and never worked the apt and I already have the feisty's one. it's good that I always save the packages.. thanks for help
[06:04] <MenZa> jenda: Pass.
[06:04] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: Close x-chat gnome, then sudo apt-get remove xchat-gnome && sudo apt-get install xchat
[06:05] <dawn_chorus> dxdemetriou, sure thing.
[06:05] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: XChat-GNOME is a bad client, imo. X-Chat has much better functionality.
[06:05] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23903/
[06:05] <mc44> jenda: its not in the official repos
[06:05] <MenZa> mc44: laaaate ;)
[06:05] <Pale_folklore> MenZa: thx, but I might as well just get irssi then, eh?
[06:05] <jenda> mc44: kk
[06:05] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: well, irssi is my preferred client.
[06:06] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: But it's up to you;
[06:06] <mc44> MenZa: pfft, I was giving a more complete answer :P
[06:06] <Mr> im back
[06:06] <MenZa> mc44: bah
[06:06] <kandala> dawn_chorus: When I boot in Single User Mode, I get a error "/dev/sda3 contains a file system with errors, check forced. RUN fsck manually." and asks for ROOT Password.
[06:06] <MenZa> Mr: How did it go?
[06:06] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, i need the ouput of sudo fdisk -L
[06:06] <Pale_folklore> MenZa: thx, appreciate it
[06:06] <Mr> well
[06:06] <mc44> jenda: due to it bein illegalz
[06:06] <MenZa> Mr: oh?
[06:06] <MenZa> Pale_folklore: no problem.
[06:06] <Mr> i connected my pc up to routetr
[06:06] <jenda> mc44: got that ;)
[06:06] <MenZa> mc44: In sum countriez :P
[06:06] <Mr> and installed wireless thing
[06:06] <mc44> MenZa: us law is internet law!
[06:06] <MenZa> mc44: D:
[06:06] <Mr> but
[06:07] <MenZa> oh well, let's stick on topic
[06:07] <MenZa> err
[06:07] <Mr> how do u run .exe files on ubuntu?
[06:07] <MenZa> stick to, or stay on
[06:07] <nfearnley> I'm looking for a todo list / organizer program. Is there a predominant open source one?
[06:07] <mc44> jenda: however, there is a script shipped with ubuntu which downloads it when executed :)
[06:07] <kandala> dawn_chorus: It basically stops at the same place when I do a regular boot also
[06:07] <linuxgeekery> Mr: you can with wine
[06:07] <MenZa> Mr: You don't run exe files; you only need the SYSTEM filders
[06:07] <mico_> MenZa, i get error : A Later version is allredy installed
[06:07] <MenZa> files*
[06:07] <bsd_> who gives a toss about US law ;p
[06:07] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus, The right output isn't the one starting with "fdisk: invalid option -- L" is it?
[06:07] <Mr> wine?
[06:07] <jenda> mc44: the wiki says you should add medibuntu, so I guess that's what the Czech wiki will say, too.
[06:07] <zaphands> Hello. I'm looking for a program similar to guitar pro for linux. Does anyone know of such a program?
[06:07] <MenZa> Mr: ignore that
[06:07] <Tom47> FordCortina: start here ... http://tips.webdesign10.com/how-to-bulk-rename-files-in-linux-in-the-terminal
[06:07] <mc44> jenda: the official help recommends running the script iirc
[06:07] <dawn_chorus> kandala, boot into a livecd and then run fsck -p /dev/sda3.  (somebody correct me if that last one's off.)
[06:08] <linuxgeekery> MenZa: is he talking about something else?
[06:08] <Mr> well i downloaded IRC client
[06:08] <Mr> and its an .exe file
[06:08] <jenda> mc44: yrw
[06:08] <MenZa> linuxgeekery: wireless drivers
[06:08] <MenZa> Mr: What IRC client?
[06:08] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, oops.  it's should be lower case.  sudo fdisk -l
[06:08] <Mr> i double clik it and linux dont reconise it
[06:08] <FordCortina> tom47: thankyou
[06:08] <dr_willis> Mr,  theres plenty of native linux irc clients.
[06:08] <kandala> dawn_chorus: ok. I will try that. Thanks
[06:08] <Mr> icechat 77
[06:08] <Yogi--> mr system -> administrations ->ndswraper    some like this
[06:08] <dr_willis> Mr,  use 'wine whatever.exe'
[06:08] <mc44> jenda: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/musicvideophotos/C/video.html#video-dvd
[06:08] <Mr> erm
[06:08] <linuxgeekery> Mr: you should probably use a native IRC application
[06:08] <linuxgeekery> !xchat > Mr
[06:09] <Mr> where is it?

[06:10] <Mr> and wireless
[06:10] <MenZa> Right, did your wireless work?
[06:10] <Mr> it didnt show up in network things
[06:10] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, and you need to boot into the "D:" drive ?
[06:10] <MenZa> Mr, no did you install ndiswrapper yet?
[06:10] <Mr> yes
[06:10] <MenZa> Mr: Along with the drivers?
[06:10] <MenZa> For your card?
[06:10] <Mr> yes
[06:10] <Mr> oh
[06:10] <Ar-Pharazon> Yes, I need to boot into both C: and D:
[06:10] <Mr> no lol
[06:10] <MenZa> Mr, there's your problem
[06:10] <Mr> kk
[06:10] <mc44> jenda: meh, the script suggested for edgy works on feisty too. just put whatever you like  :)
[06:10] <Mr> back soon
[06:10] <MenZa> Mr: ndiswrapper just makes win32 drivers run on Linux
[06:10] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, right.  you're going to re-install Ubuntu, right?
[06:11] <MenZa> Mr: sure
[06:11] <jenda> mc44: Well, I'm not that type of guy.
[06:11] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus, yep
[06:11] <jenda> mc44: I'm the type of guy that'll claim to be too busy and will ask the LoCo to fix it.
[06:11] <Yogi--> mr after ndiswrapper you have to install win drivers for your wireless card *.inf file
[06:11] <jenda> ;)
[06:11] <mc44> jenda: haha
[06:11] <MenZa> mico_: Did you install wine 0.9.37 yet?
[06:11] <mico_> i install that like u sayd
[06:12] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, OK.  that'll re-write GRUB, so whatever we do now won't stick.  I'll edit your menu.lst so you can have it for later.  All you'll need is to add the "D:" entry, which is what I'm about to add.
[06:12] <MenZa> with sudo dpkg -i?
[06:12] <mico_> and start steam again
[06:12] <MenZa> mico_: yep
[06:12] <MenZa> mico_: That worked for me
[06:12] <MenZa> slowdeath: thanks for pointing that out, by the way
[06:12] <Yogi--> btw... X-chat is not install by default
[06:12] <mico_> i wait again

[06:13] <astomper> I extracted some songs from a cd to my computer, they are .ogg format.  Could I use a different program and extract them into mp3 format or do I have to convert them?
[06:14] <dr_willis> astomper,  i tend touse grip - it lets you pick what to rip them to. Most programs have that option to pick what to rip to
[06:14] <Yogi--> astomper soundconverter is a good program

[06:15] <MenZa> np :)
[06:15] <Yogi--> MenZa what about 'some one speak bulgarian' :")
[06:16] <astomper> Yogi-- I got that, but I don't want to convert if I don't have to, I'm putting "The Hobbit" onto my mp3 player.
[06:16] <MenZa> Yogi--:  Nngh, no idea

[06:17] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, that should do it -> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23906/ <-  I'm thinking that ubuntu will recognize the two separate XP installs and will add them to your list, but you can save what I've pasted just in case it doesn't, provided you don't change your partitioning scheme.
[06:17] <astomper> Yogi-- thats what I used to goto .ogg, can I choose to make it extract to mp3 instead?
[06:17] <mico_> MenZa,  i have update steam, and now he install wine gecko installer
[06:18] <Yogi--> astomper aaaa i see now ... just sek please
[06:18] <dr_willis> astomper,  it has a nice gui
[06:18] <vox754> Yogi--, what's so funny?!
[06:18] <MenZa> mico_: Yeah, wine does that, so you can view the store and stuff
[06:18] <Yogi--> vox754 my english is poor to explan what i mean
[06:18] <novato_br> hi dudes, how can get full screen on virtualbox to running windows xp?
[06:18] <astomper> thx dr_willis.
[06:18] <MenZa> novato_br: #vbox
[06:18] <novato_br> thx
[06:18] <mico_> But i cant see letters in boxes
[06:19] <valerien> choose "fullscreen" in the menu :)
[06:19] <yeniklasor> Somehow my pc's boot is deleting or something is occur (there is also windows). How can I restore my boot, if there is an error occur?
[06:19] <novato_br> i didn't see this option, valerien
[06:19] <Sir-Integra> yeniklasor,
[06:19] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus, alright thank you
[06:19] <Sir-Integra>  yeniklasor  put your windows disk in and repair the boot.
[06:19] <valerien> novato_br when you start the virtual operatingsystem you have on the window three menus
[06:19] <valerien> in the first one you have fullscreen as option
[06:19] <Sir-Integra>  worked for me when i screwed mine up. I use ubuntu full time now though.
[06:19] <palenke2k> join ubuntu-es
[06:20] <palenke2k> :P
[06:20] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, if you look closely at what I did, you can teach yourself how to do it.  and that's the ultimate goal.
[06:20] <bastid_raZor> if you've installed ubuntu after windows.. you'll have to repair the windows install
[06:20] <soyporti> t is unsafe to have the documents on a NTFS partition?
[06:20] <yeniklasor> Then ubuntu's boot is going
[06:20] <valerien> has anyone here googleearth running with beryl on an ATI Radeon graphics card?
[06:20] <bastid_raZor> windows places some files at the end of a its partition which ubuntu overwrites

[06:20] <palenke2k> ok
[06:21] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus I think I get it. I wonder how  get rid of the windows loader though.
[06:21] <dawn_chorus> bastid_raZor, just be sure to defrag the drive.  there's a graphical display of where the files are, just make sure there's nothing at the very end, or however far into the drive you'd like to resize it.
[06:21] <mico_> MenZa,  i see now :) i cant play Cs on my Ubuntu :) i cant see letters in setup :(
[06:21] <MenZa> mico_: that's because you need the font Tahoma
[06:21] <MenZa> mico_: let me guide you through downloading that
[06:21] <novato_br> Cool , valerian
[06:21] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, I think you need it.  I think that's where the "Chainloader" comes in, activating the Windows Loader, but I may be totally off.
[06:21] <mico_> please mate
[06:21] <bastid_raZor> dawn_chorus: windows still puts the files way on the end. system files that are not movable.
[06:21] <MenZa> mico_: first, sudo apt-get install msttcorefonts
[06:22] <novato_br> anyone knows one channel about internet?
[06:22] <bastid_raZor> dawn_chorus: after you do the repair, run the defrag again. it'll have them at the end of the partition.
[06:22] <bastid_raZor> windows is crazy weird like that.
[06:22] <anandanbu> hi
[06:22] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus I used to pick windows XP (loader) from the grub menu then pick the windows I want
[06:23] <MenZa> mico_: then cd /usr/share/fonts/truetype && sudo wget svn.dsource.org/projects/bindings/trunk/freetype/examples/Tahoma.ttf
[06:23] <dawn_chorus> bastid_raZor, yes, that happens.  there are ways to move those files though, if they don't move themselves.  Guess I'm lucky because they've always moved.
[06:23] <anandanbu> i have a problem with the avant-window-navigator can somebody help with it
[06:23] <bastid_raZor> i guess i never had the luck on my side
[06:23] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, oh.  that may change things.
[06:24] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus can it be fixed without a windows reinstall?
[06:24] <bastid_raZor> windows repair?
[06:24] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, can what be fixed?
[06:24] <MenZa> Ar-Pharazon: You're missing ntoskrnl.exe?
[06:24] <urko> am enybody knows what command line in root is to remove certain directory?
[06:24] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus I'm not sure if I am.
[06:25] <bastid_raZor> rmdir
[06:25] <Ar-Pharazon> That was to menza
[06:25] <Ar-Pharazon> =/
[06:25] <bastid_raZor> urko: the directory has to be empty in order to rmdir it
[06:25] <urko> thnx
[06:25] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus, anyway, I'd prefer to just use 1 loader instead of 2 that's all.
[06:25] <Yogi--> urko rm -rf /path/to/dir
[06:25] <MenZa> mico_: right, run the next command I gave you
[06:26] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, I understand.  That may be something Windows does automatically.  I don't know how to jimmy with that.
[06:26] <bastid_raZor> jimmy .. heh
[06:26] <jukka> hello
[06:26] <dawn_chorus> or fanagle.
[06:26] <mico_> Ok finished
[06:26] <sebas_> how can I see the information of my graphics card?

[06:26] <MenZa> sebas_: lspci | grep vga
[06:26] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus Oh. Thanks anyway, I'll guess I'll just fiddle around then.
[06:27] <sebas_> !lspci
[06:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lspci - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:27] <jukka> i just install ubuntu 7.04, it's more better than windows xp, xp tilt all time :)
[06:27] <jukka> ubuntu never tilt :)
[06:27] <dawn_chorus> Ar-Pharazon, i'm sure that issue has been handled before somewhere though.  try google.com/linux or the ubuntuforums.org search.
[06:27] <MenZa> Good to hear that, jukka
[06:27] <bastid_raZor> !grammar
[06:27] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about grammar - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:27] <MenZa> sebas_: in your terminal, run that command
[06:27] <bastid_raZor> heh
[06:28] <Ar-Pharazon> dawn_chorus thanks, I'll try that.
[06:28] <sebas_> MenZa: yes, I know. I just wanted to know what it means.
[06:28] <MenZa> sebas_: list all pci devices, sebas_
[06:28] <robdeman> folks my Ubuntu 7.04 machine runs find (MySQL, Apache, Samba etc etc) but when I login to Gnome (either local or through VNC) it takes for ever to show up Gnome -- I do see the outlins of some popup being drawn, but it never finishes drawing the popup window. This happpened after I did some chmod 0777 (or 0744 cant remember) to my users home dir....
[06:28] <robdeman> find = fine .. my machine runs fine except for Gnome that is
[06:29] <dawn_chorus> !find lspci | sebas_
[06:29] <ubotu> sebas_: File lspci found in debian-installer, pciutils
[06:29] <MenZa> mico_, how's it coming along?
[06:29] <runatrain> hmmm how do i get Kvirc to work? :)
[06:29] <robdeman> How do I 'restore' gnome? and/or default the chmod settings for the users homedir?
[06:29] <bastid_raZor> ouch 0777 isn't even a permission
[06:29] <robdeman> 0777 isnt?
[06:29] <bastid_raZor> drop the 0 and go 744
[06:30] <bastid_raZor> eh.. 777 if you wish
[06:30] <mico_> creating acount ::)
[06:30] <robdeman> so what do I do: sudo chmod -R 0744 /home/rob ?
[06:30] <MenZa> mico_: so it works then?
[06:30] <Yogi--> bbl
[06:30] <bastid_raZor> no 0
[06:30] <bastid_raZor> 744
[06:30] <robdeman> so:  sudo chmod -R 744 /home/rob
[06:30] <bastid_raZor> there you go
[06:31] <MenZa> I'm not sure, but you might need to swap the numbers and the -R flag
[06:31] <mico_> lol MenZa  its work but i dont know what he work heh
[06:31] <robdeman> bastid_raZor: but I will get some problems with .dmrc or something right.. it will say 'file must have 0600 rights' etc
[06:31] <MenZa> mico_: so you see the user interface now? You can read the text?
[06:31] <mc44> MenZa: you were using vmware for seamless virt right?
[06:31] <mico_> yes i can
[06:31] <MenZa> mc44: correct
[06:32] <bastid_raZor> permissions are only 3 numbers
[06:32] <mc44> MenZa: is it possible to get vmware to run without a window?
[06:32] <robdeman> how do I restart Gnome / X Server from Putty (SSH) ?
[06:32] <sebas_> MenZa: I finished with lspci -v | grep 'VGA'
[06:32] <MenZa> mc44: so, seamlessly?
[06:32] <MenZa> sebas_: do you get anything?
[06:32] <SamWise_TheGreat> why does native unreal tournament 2004 not emit any sound?
[06:32] <mc44> MenZa: no :P

[06:40] <Corvinis-V> thanks :)
[06:41] <MenZa> cables: well, DE if you prefer that ;)
[06:41] <bastid_raZor> Xadloki: no ideas here.
[06:41] <sebas_> bijan, ubotu is a bot
[06:41] <cables> Corvinis-V, KDE runs on top of X, and provides a window manager, which draws the windows, a GUI toolkit, which draws buttons, and the general UI (like the options dialogs and stuff)
[06:41] <xcd> bastid: well.. i installed it but i actually haven't tried mounting any partitions on the 'fuse' group or whatever you need to do yet... i haven't wanted to try writing to them yet.
[06:41] <dr_willis> !botsnack
[06:41] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[06:41] <Corvinis-V> ic :)
[06:41] <Mr> hello again!
[06:41] <cables> MenZa, yeah, a window manager is just part of a DE :)
[06:41] <MenZa> cables: So much terminology to keep track of ;)
[06:41] <Mr> i downloaded the wireless card drivers
[06:41] <bastid_raZor> xcd: that package will allow you to write.. isn't that what you are trying to do?
[06:41] <MenZa> hi Mr :)
[06:42] <Mr> hi
[06:42] <novato_br> somebody help with "no dhcpoffers received"?
[06:42] <xcd> bastid_raZor: no, someone else asked if ntfs was 'safe' to use
[06:42] <novato_br> my signal is dhcp
[06:42] <soyporti> 1 partition in my pc is on NTFS format, do you think is safe cause i don't know why the system tells me that is not and ask me for a password everytime i try to READ them
[06:42] <predaeus> Xadloki, do the USB-Legacy-Support options in BIOS change anything?
[06:42] <Corvinis-V> lol botsnack...
[06:42] <Mr> i cant install wireless card drivers
[06:42] <MenZa> xcd: I have no problems writing to my ntfs partition
[06:42] <Mr> its a .exe
[06:42] <bastid_raZor> xcd: oh..
[06:42] <MenZa> Mr: The files you need are .ini files
[06:42] <xcd> ok ... guys i was talking to soyporti lol
[06:42] <MenZa> Mr: Which are packaged in a .exe, most likely
[06:42] <xcd> i'm not looking for help writing to ntfs ;)
[06:42] <Mr> how do i explore a .exe
[06:43] <MenZa> Mr: You need to "extract" the files on Windows first
[06:43] <PWill> Hi, I keep getting bounces from the Ubuntu mailing lists, but I know my address is right, because I  can get mail from everyone else, including other mailman servers. Can anyone help?
[06:43] <bijan> mr:i dont think you can
[06:43] <soyporti> xcd: i make a mistake when i install the ntfs support for writing using automatix
[06:43] <Mr> right
[06:43] <Mr> ] i extractto windows
[06:43] <Mr> find the files
[06:43] <mico_> MenZa,  tnx mate 4 all but my Still want to start
[06:43] <cables> soyporti, automatix is terrible, you shouldn't use it
[06:43] <Mr> mem stick them
[06:43] <soyporti> xcd: i press ctrl alt F12
[06:43] <soyporti> i know
[06:43] <Mr> then what?
[06:43] <predaeus> !enter
[06:43] <MenZa> Msorry, mico_?
[06:43] <mico_> Cs
[06:44] <MenZa> Mr: then you want to extract those to a directory on your Ubuntu system and tell ndiswrapper to use them
[06:44] <Ddw> what's particulairy worse about automatix?
[06:44] <MenZa> mico_: It doesn't want to start, or?
[06:44] <soyporti> the thing is that i don't know how to get some programs without it
[06:44] <cables> Ddw, it breaks systems
[06:44] <Mr> damn that sounds hard
[06:44] <mico_> yes Cs wants start] \
[06:44] <Mr> what files do i need?
[06:44] <MenZa> Mr: Any .ini files you can find, as far as I know
[06:44] <cables> soyporti, you should just ask us how to get those programs without it, instead of risking screwing up your system.
[06:44] <MenZa> But like I said, I'm no good with ndiswrapper :/
[06:44] <sx66> how do I get my resolution configured n a 915resolution when I sudo /etc/init.d/915resolution start
[06:44] <MenZa> Mr: two seconds
[06:44] <soyporti> cables:thanks
[06:45] <Mr> ok
[06:45] <aMMuNix> how can make it so clicking a link in a terminal\gaim open a firefox window\tab with the link?
[06:45] <soyporti> cables: i thing i'm going to reinstall feisty
[06:45] <Ddw> cables >> ok. i guess i was lucky in the past. I never had troubles with it. But since i don't trust it for some reason, i haven't used it with my fresh feisty install :D
[06:45] <cables> soyporti, is it that badly broken?
[06:45] <soyporti> think*
[06:45] <xcd> soyporti: i actually don't know enough about what you're trying to do, i just have my ntfs set up to read at the moment and i'm not too worried about trying to write
[06:45] <MenZa> No, you want .sys files, Mr
[06:45] <soyporti> no no , the thing is that to access the partition i need to give the root password
[06:46] <MenZa> Right, is anyone here experienced with ndiswrapper, who can possibly help Mr with his card?
[06:46] <roxlu> When I format my disk using ext3 can I also use it under windows?
[06:46] <soyporti> my mother and sister also use this computer so i try to make this really easy for them
[06:46] <vox754> !ext3
[06:46] <ubotu> ext3 is the default filesystem on Ubuntu, and the most popular on Linux. You can read/write from Windows to ext3 via http://www.fs-driver.org
[06:46] <cables> roxlu, go to http://fs-driver.org
[06:46] <sx66> how do I get my resolution configured in a 915resolution when I sudo /etc/init.d/915resolution start
[06:46] <Mr> erm
[06:46] <cables> vox754, ah, you beat me :)
[06:46] <vox754> cables, zes
[06:46] <Mr> [IFMO] Mri need .sys files
[06:46] <MenZa> !patience | sx66
[06:46] <ubotu> sx66: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[06:46] <Mr> ok
[06:47] <soyporti> i don't like automatix, you bet i don't
[06:47] <sx66> Thank you for your timely response.
[06:48] <soyporti> forget what i said, i think i will reinstall right now.
[06:48] <soyporti> can i mark the home directory as home for the new install?
[06:48] <b52GM> hello
[06:49] <b52GM> please i need a little help , to get  the led radio and mt intel wireless network card  2200 working
[06:49] <aMMuNix> how can make it so clicking a link in a terminal\gaim open a firefox window\tab with the link?
[06:49] <b52GM> the kernel module is loaded
[06:49] <soyporti> everytime i install it put the older home file in media/....   can i put that mark as home??
[06:49] <b52GM> i can ping my wireless routeur
[06:50] <b52GM> i just need  the led ,  to run :D
[06:50] <soyporti> everytime i install it put the older home file in media/....   can i put that mark as home??anyone?
[06:50] <MenZa> Mr: hmm
[06:50] <MenZa> Mr: you need those .sys files
[06:50] <sx66> Sorry.
[06:50] <tmroland> hi i cant open my pdfs (owned by me ) in my ~/docs/good folder.. it says : Couldnt display file. The attempt to login failed
[06:50] <tmroland> and i can open pdfs in the upper folder and they have same permission
[06:50] <Mr> how?
[06:51] <wols_> soyporti: I dunno if you can with the installer, but you can always change that after install: simply edit your fstab
[06:51] <Gecko> Hey there. If I have modified the partition table of a disk, is there anything I need to do to make linux see the changes right away?
[06:51] <MenZa> Mr: extract them from Windows, most likely you'll have to install them
[06:51] <soyporti> wols: it sounds dificult
[06:51] <wols_> Gecko: no
[06:51] <wols_> soyporti: simply a single small file edit
[06:51] <Mr> ill install to a dud dir
[06:51] <MenZa> sure, Mr
[06:51] <Gecko> wols_: so, I should be able to run a mkfs.jfs /dev/sdb3, right?
[06:51] <soyporti> would you help me if that happens?
[06:52] <Mr> what .sys files do i need?
[06:52] <xcd> any idea when a stable version of pidgin is coming out in feisty repositories?
[06:52] <MenZa> Just take everything it installs
[06:52] <tmroland> help i cant open my pdfs it says: attempt to login failed (i have good permissions on them)
[06:52] <wols_> Gecko: fdisk -l to check if that partition exists. if yes: then you can
[06:52] <MenZa> And put it on your usb disk
[06:52] <FFighter> hello folks
[06:52] <Mr> ok
[06:52] <Mr> then?
[06:52] <MenZa> tmroland: try with root
[06:52] <MenZa> Mr: well, do you see any sys files?
[06:53] <Mr> hang on
[06:53] <Gecko> wols_: trouble is, I can see the partition with fdisk -l, cfdisk, etc. but mkfs complains that the disk must be over 16M of size...
[06:53] <ubuntu_> hol a todos
[06:53] <tmroland> MenZa: i need to open them by double clicking on them in nautilus, i can open them on my user account with evince <file.pdf> on command line
[06:53] <tmroland> but when i click
[06:53] <tmroland> it errors out
[06:53] <MenZa> tmroland: hmm, that sounds odd
[06:53] <wols_> Gecko: how big is sdb3?
[06:53] <MenZa> so you CAN open them from the command line?
[06:53] <Gecko> wols_: around 18G
[06:53] <tmroland> MenZa: yes i can
[06:54] <tmroland> and some other pdfs with same permission in the upper folder open just fine when double clicked
[06:54] <wols_> Gecko: any reason you can't reboot?
[06:54] <Corvinis-V> does ubuntu use kde or gnome or both ?
[06:54] <lunixman> whats the command for unmounting?
[06:54] <MenZa> umount
[06:54] <Gecko> wols_: I'm a lazy person
[06:54] <lunixman> thanks
[06:54] <MenZa> Corvinis-V: either
[06:54] <Corvinis-V> alrighty
[06:54] <Corvinis-V> thanks mate
[06:54] <Gecko> wols_: and the knowledge might be good to have in the future
[06:54] <MenZa> Corvinis-V: It uses Gnome by default, but you can install KDE by doing sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[06:54] <wols_> Corvinis-V: ubuntu comes with gnome, kubuntu comes with kde. but each one can run both
[06:54] <MenZa> (Xfce is xubuntu-desktop, etc. etc.)
[06:54] <vox754> for newbs, and interactive command line tutorial, you can try it and contribute http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=380978
[06:54] <roxlu> cables:  I've got a 250gb external drive; when I put it on it gets mounted "read only" is there a way to make it writable?
[06:55] <Corvinis-V> i see
[06:55] <novato_br> i go change the SO, i cant install the network on ubuntu
[06:55] <lunixman> does terminal have an automount option?
[06:55] <novato_br> i'll go to slackware
[06:55] <Corvinis-V> kubuntu is another linux distro ?
[06:55] <wols_> roxlu: what filesystem?
[06:55] <novato_br> ext3
[06:55] <lunixman> my one partition was installed by disk mounter automatically
[06:55] <roxlu> ntfs
[06:55] <wols_> nomad_: what is a "SO"?
[06:55] <lunixman> how do i repeat the process with diff partitions?
[06:55] <wols_> novato_br: what is a "SO"?
[06:55] <novato_br> SO = Operation System
[06:55] <MenZa> no, that's an OS.
[06:55] <aMMuNix> how come when I copy stuff to my cellphone using the usb cable it doesn't copy anything?
[06:55] <novato_br> SO is portuguese like OS
[06:55] <aMMuNix> any proper way to do so?
[06:56] <wols_> lunixman: no automunt. there is fstab which decides what is mounted on bootup. man fstab
[06:56] <the_gh0st> what is the topic?
[06:56] <dr_willis> aMMuNix,  be sure to unmount the phone befor removing the cable
[06:56] <Gecko> wols_: System Object?
[06:56] <novato_br> [wols_] : i've been try everthing
[06:56] <novato_br> i cant install the network on ubuntu
[06:56] <wols_> novato_br: your interfaces yesterday lacked a line "auto eth0"
[06:56] <aMMuNix> dr_willis, how do I do that? I right-clicked the phone drive, unmount
[06:57] <Fallenou> hello
[06:57] <MenZa> !hi | Fallenou
[06:57] <ubotu> Fallenou: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:57] <valerien> eh - what was the beryl effects channel, please?
[06:57] <Gecko> wols_: if it's a .so file, it's a system object file, it's part of the elf specification, and roughly compares to a .dll or .sys file
[06:57] <Fallenou> lol
[06:57] <MenZa> !effects
[06:57] <ubotu> For help with Beryl or Compiz desktop effects, please go to #ubuntu-effects.
[06:57] <wols_> !effects

[06:57] <valerien> thx

[06:57] <dr_willis> aMMuNix,  what are ya tryng to cppy over? do you even see files on the phone after conecting it?
[06:57] <Fallenou> i have trouble with wine since last update, most of the text in software does not appear
[06:57] <novato_br> and it was not works, wols_
[06:57] <Cras1> in gtkpod how do i fix this?
[06:57] <Fallenou> in general just the first word can be read
[06:57] <aMMuNix> and it says it's copying files that needs to be written, no progress bar no nothing, and it said that for over an hour while all I was transferring  is like 0.5MB
[06:57] <wols_> novato_br: does dhclient eth0 still work?
[06:58] <Fallenou> first i thought about theme but i put the default one and it still doesn't work well :o
[06:58] <novato_br> yep
[06:58] <novato_br> i'm on windows, now
[06:58] <Fallenou> it did work but it no longer does.
[06:58] <novato_br> and dhcp it's works
[06:58] <aMMuNix> trying to copy a .mp3 file, I'm seeing it in the phone but can't play it, plus can't copy it to other windows machines afterwards
[06:58] <novato_br> but on linux, doesn't works
[06:58] <bijan> will my airport card work with ubuntu
[06:58] <aMMuNix> or any other machine
[06:58] <wols_> novato_br: I told you what you have to do
[06:58] <novato_br> yep, wols_
[06:58] <MenZa> !hardware | bijan
[06:58] <ubotu> bijan: For lists of supported hardware on Ubuntu see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupport
[06:58] <MenZa> Look there
[06:58] <novato_br> and I told you that I've been try that
[06:59] <Fallenou> any idea MenZa ?
[06:59] <novato_br> it's hard, it's hard
[06:59] <Cras1> anyone know how to fix the itunesdb.ext error in gtkpod?
[06:59] <novato_br> erro dhcp
[06:59] <MenZa> Fallenou: none whatsoever
[06:59] <wols_> novato_br: and I don't believe you. you had typos in your interfaces file yesterday ath0 vs. eth0. and no auto eth0 line
[06:59] <valerien> hello - anyone around to help me with xgl in the effects channel?
[06:59] <MenZa> !patience | valerien
[06:59] <ubotu> valerien: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[06:59] <Fallenou> MenZa < "whatsoever" <  what ?
[06:59] <MenZa> Fallenou: I have no idea, no.
[06:59] <novato_br> yep, wols_, but I chaged the ath0 to eth0
[06:59] <Fallenou> ok
[07:00] <novato_br> and it wasn't works
[07:00] <valerien> thank you MenZa... sorry - i am totally new to irc
[07:00] <MenZa> valerien: No problem :)
[07:00] <wols_> novato_br: then paste your new,changed  interfaces
[07:00] <valerien> :)
[07:00] <roxlu> how can I automatically mount a partition which is formatted as ext3 ?  (and can I add the partition to the 'root' ?)
[07:00] <novato_br> yep
[07:00] <Fallenou> MenZa can it be caused by wine-doors ? i installed some fonts with it :o
[07:00] <MenZa> valerien: the effects-channel isn't the most active Ubuntu-project channel, but you will probably get a reply
[07:00] <novato_br> i've take on ubuntu
[07:00] <wols_> roxlu: external harddisk or internal partition?
[07:01] <novato_br> can you wait for me?
[07:01] <dr_willis> roxlu,  edit the fstab file and make it mount where you want it to be
[07:01] <MenZa> Fallenou: I doubt it; wine-doors only touches ~/.wine as far as I know
[07:01] <valerien> actually it seems noone is in the effects channel around now
[07:01] <mneptok> valerien: treat as you would a physical room full of people. shouting the same question every 3 minutes doesn't help get you noticed in any way you want. ;)
[07:01] <roxlu> wols_: internal hardisk .. and partition
[07:01] <Mr> for some reason, installing linux on my IDE HDD means windiows now  think i have only 1 HDD
[07:01] <wols_> novato_br: just do it
[07:01] <dr_willis> roxlu,  may be some front end tool to make it easier.
[07:01] <Paddy> how can install grub to this windows install that no longer has a boot loader
[07:01] <chrissieX> hi all, I'm back after having removed the linux partitions on the dual boot comp, as Chaotic advised. Now the computer does not even boot Windows. I get a message that says "Grub loading please wait" then "Error 22". How do i get this laptop to boot windows and nothing else?
[07:01] <DexterF> hi
[07:01] <tmroland> hi.. now i reboot the pc and now i cant open ANY pdf file (wich is owned by me and has right permissions) in nautilus..
[07:01] <novato_br> ok
[07:01] <tmroland> The filename "wiley___.pdf" indicates that this file is of type "pdf document". The contents of the file indicate that the file is of type "PDF document". If you open this file, the file might present a security risk to your system.
[07:01] <wols_> roxlu: then edit your /etc/fstab. man fstab
[07:01] <novato_br> i'll bring for you my interfaces to you see
[07:01] <Paddy> !grub
[07:01] <ubotu> grub is the default Ubuntu boot manager. Lost grub after installing windows: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RecoveringUbuntuAfterInstallingWindows - Making GRUB floppies & other GRUB howtos: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/GrubHowto

[07:03] <lunixman> how do i delete a folder i made using mkdir?
[07:03] <dr_willis> aMMuNix,  could be its getting messed up in the transfer, or not completed .
[07:03] <mneptok> yeniklasor: htop is like top, but better

[07:04] <p1ls> hey, is there a way to download all plugins to k3b? im mising like 36
[07:04] <sax> you could just list them under an apt-get

[07:04] <Mr> ok
[07:04] <aMMuNix> dr_willis: should just copy paste work? since it's copying too fast for a USB transfer, so I was thinking it creates a link to the file?
[07:04] <dr_willis> p1ls,  proberly some depend on the others so if ya start installing them - you will soon get them all
[07:04] <sax> tmroland: what program?
[07:04] <Mr> i have the .sys files drom the wireless card drivers!
[07:04] <sax> ghostview?

[07:09] <FFighter> Guys, I just downloaded Acrobat Reader in the form of a tar.gz, however, it has come with a mime type of plain text and I can't manage to open it (it tries to open it using gedit)
[07:09] <Mr> do u know how to doit?
[07:09] <FFighter> Is there a way to fix it ?
[07:09] <dr_willis> FFighter,  use the shell and unompress it
[07:10] <dr_willis> actually iusent acrobat reader in the repos?
[07:10] <p1ls> FFighter, did you uncompress it?
[07:10] <wols_> FFighter: the mime type is your own. ie your box is borked, not the acrobat archive
[07:10] <FFighter> plls, Strange... becouse all other tar.gz files have been working nicely...
[07:10] <FFighter> I will try to uncompress through the shell
[07:10] <FFighter> Thank you all for the tips
[07:11] <dr_willis> !acrobat
[07:11] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acrobat - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[07:12] <ca-steve> any X gurus out there?
[07:12] <Corvinis-V> howcome can't I select a different hz rate at display resolution?
[07:12] <FFighter> I'm getting a "gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file". It seems the file is corrupted...
[07:12] <tmroland> sax, do i need to install another viewer because gnome is starting to act retarded... well.. im looking for a solution to tell gnome to work as it should.. specifically evince
[07:12] <FFighter> damn... 30min to download this huge 50MB file for nothing :P
[07:12] <sax> oh.  Sorry.  I dunno then
[07:13] <sax> Corvinis-V: do you have an nvidia card?
[07:13] <Corvinis-V> yar
[07:13] <lunixman> im really confused, heres the deal. I have one physical harddrive with a partition i'd like to mount, which is /dev/hda5. i used sudo mount and fstab to mount the drive. It's mounted but i cant access it even as root. What do i do now? it's NTFS.
[07:13] <sax> run "nvidia-settings" Corvinis-V
[07:13] <Corvinis-V> pls don't say something like.... in that case PWND!
[07:13] <FFighter> I will keep using Evince for now...
[07:13] <Corvinis-V> oh ok :P
[07:13] <sax> hah
[07:13] <sax> look in X server display config
[07:13] <dr_willis> lunixman,  try the mount command to see if its really mounted.
[07:14] <sax> you should be able to change it Corvinis-V
[07:14] <wols_> lunixman: error messages are not just for show
[07:14] <bulmer> lunixman: what does the command mount tells you? what is mounted?
[07:14] <lunixman> yes its mounted
[07:14] <wols_> lunixman: and we are error message junkies here
[07:14] <dr_willis> lunixman,  also use 'fdisk -l' to verify the partition table is proper
[07:14] <lunixman> i even tried to rmdir it
[07:14] <lunixman> it said /dev/hda5 is busy
[07:14] <lunixman> or in use
[07:14] <overridex> I wish there were a way for firefox to show a pixmap gtk theme properly instead of it just sort of using the colors of the theme

[07:14] <sax> Corvinis-V: does that help?
[07:14] <sax> GTG, I'm out
[07:14] <thedeviantone> has anyone compile a Fiesty kernel with SCSI controller support? I need help please
[07:14] <bulmer> lunixman  whats the permission? parameters of the mounted /dev/hda5
[07:15] <lunixman> in fstab?
[07:15] <lunixman> the weird thing is
[07:15] <bulmer> in mount
[07:15] <lunixman> there's nothing on fstab
[07:15] <lunixman> but it exists in my /media folder
[07:15] <lunixman> only when i double click it it wont let me enter
[07:15] <bulmer> show us your mount command result for the line /dev/hda5
[07:15] <tmroland> Unhandled MIME type: application/x-extension-pdf
[07:15] <wols_> lunixman: there is. you just don't recognize it since it's by UUID

[07:16] <demonspork> how do I mount an ISO file as a CD-ROM drive when the ISO filename has spaces in it so I can't do it in a terminal?
[07:16] <wols_> ca-steve: tried dpkg-reconfigure your xserver? if yes and it's still 1024, check your Xorg.log
[07:16] <lunixman> when i typed /dev/hda5 it said permission denied
[07:17] <wols_> demonspork: you can. "\ " is a space in a terminal (sans doublequotes
[07:17] <supreme> hello
[07:17] <wols_> or put the whole filename in doublequotes without the scaping
[07:17] <bulmer> lunixman: reboot for now to get rid of that busy

[07:17] <supreme> ??
[07:17] <ca-steve> wols_  ok - thx - I'll try that
[07:17] <vox754> supreme, impossible use 32 bit instead
[07:18] <supreme> really vox754 ???
[07:18] <demonspork> wols_ ahh, thx that would be helpful in several places, I figured out how to do it by making a symbolic link
[07:18] <supreme> why is that so?
[07:18] <vox754> supreme, what are your reasons fr using 64 bit other than you processor is 64 bit
[07:18] <TOoSmOotH> I have a windows share that I am trying to mount to but it creates every directory as root even though I am using a different user to create the files/directories. My fstab looks like: //server/Share /mnt/Share  cifs exec,credentials=/etc/credz 0 0
[07:19] <wols_> supreme: what vhipset does your wifi adapter use?
[07:19] <supreme> ipw3945abg
[07:19] <Corvinis-V> sax > was installing some packages sorry lol
[07:19] <Corvinis-V> trying now
[07:19] <supreme> Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection (rev 02)
[07:19] <overridex> TOoSmOotH: add something like ,uid=1000,gid=1000 to those options in fstab
[07:20] <TOoSmOotH> OK will do thanks

[07:20] <Corvinis-V> *terminal
[07:21] <supreme> vox754, so i must install 32bit ubuntu because the mac80211 and iwlwifi are 32 bit?
[07:21] <supreme> or?
[07:21] <wols_> supreme: it will work with amd64. e.g. http://packages.debian.org/stable/admin/ipw3945-modules-2.6-amd64

[07:22] <wols_> vox754: that card works in amd54
[07:22] <wols_> pm2: unlikely
[07:22] <vox754> supreme, http://ipw3945.sourceforge.net/       ....what?       wols_ feel free to correct me
[07:22] <pm2> wols_, ok, thanks
[07:22] <wols_> vox754: I dunno about ubunut, but debian certainly thinks it's possible. see link
[07:22] <supreme> wols_, it works with ipw3945 drivers , but iwlwifi drivers require to recompile kernel
[07:23] <wols_> supreme: what's wrong with ipw3945 (except the daemon of course)?
[07:23] <supreme> i want to install iwlwifi , and to erase ipw3945 packets
[07:23] <caner> smuggler
[07:23] <supreme> i heart that the newest drivers allow injection packets

[07:42] <cpace> I'm a fan of konversation (it's what I'm running right now) but that's just because it has a simplistic interface
[07:42] <novato_br> thix, wols_, 00:10.0 PCI bridge: nVidia Corporation MCP51 PCI Bridge (rev a2)

[07:42] <Corvinis-V> ic
[07:42] <gocciadisangue> hi

[07:43] <gocciadisangue> znuff file .msg are file by  outlook, are email
[07:43] <inqui> well work always on many shells ....
[07:43] <fogwar> !gparted
[07:43] <ubotu> GParted is is a !GUI partitioning program. Type  sudo apt-get install gparted  in a console to install it - A GParted "live" CD is available at http://gparted.sourceforge.net/livecd.php
[07:43] <wols_> novato_br: it will still show up in lspci as separate device
[07:44] <Corvinis-V> mmm somehow my pc seems very slow after I installed ubuntu
[07:44] <inqui> and do always the same commands to set everything up
[07:44] <inqui> would like to make it via script

[07:44] <Znuff> inqui, so? throw them in a bash script.
[07:44] <novato_br> do you see my lsmod?
[07:44] <fogwar> wols_: nvm
[07:44] <wols_> fogwar: remount the partition you want to resize as read only. then it might work
[07:44] <novato_br> i took the log of them , too
[07:45] <Znuff> gocciadisangue, google.com/search?q=outlook+mbox+converter
[07:45] <inqui> yes but the bshscript always stays in the same shell
[07:45] <fogwar> wols_: how do i run the prgram in root
[07:45] <inqui> doesn't it?
[07:45] <novato_br> http://pastebin.ca/534077 -> lsmod log's file

[07:46] <inqui> znuff : want to have several shells - some do ssh some in local directories

[07:46] <Yggdrasil_> its some lrm thing not sure what it is
[07:46] <wols_> martyn: what videocard?
[07:46] <fogwar> wols_: i just ./configured gpated and now i typed maek and it says no target specified
[07:46] <martyn> Znuff yeah both do
[07:47] <Znuff> inqui, dude, make up your mind and stop using the word shell if you don't know what it means.
[07:47] <wols_> fogwar: why? ubuntu as gparted in the repos
[07:47] <martyn> Wols its an Intel on baord 1 i am using a mac mini

[07:48] <GrueTamer> novato_br: linux works better for me than windows :P
[07:48] <theshadow> how can I see what groups my username is associated with?
[07:48] <cpace> I have a usb thumbdrive I can put them on

[07:49] <Znuff> novato_br, did you reset your cable modem?
[07:49] <wols_> novato_br: sinc you haven't told me the error, I don't know. there is an error in /var/log/syslog or /var/log/kern.log or /var/log/messages after bootup.
[07:49] <GrueTamer> inqui: you could start a new tab, or a new shell in the menus
[07:49] <Scunizi> inqui, click the blank area next to the tab at the bottom.. "double click."
[07:49] <Znuff> inqui, you can't
[07:49] <inqui> GreTamer - would like to do this atomatically
[07:49] <flac> Hi there

[07:50] <novato_br> but doesnt work
[07:50] <wols_> fogwar: start it from an xterm
[07:50] <novato_br> because it's not connected with internet
[07:50] <inqui> ... want to open terminals for serveral  points in FS - so that i dont have to retype locations or commands
[07:50] <Trixsey> I'm having trouble with the proprietary drivers included with Ubuntu.. When I enable them my screen goes black.. why?
[07:50] <Trixsey> And what can I do to fix it?
[07:50] <fogwar> wols_: how
[07:50] <flac> Can someone help me ? I try to host a website on my PC but I can't because f my locales problem
[07:51] <novato_br> i'll go out
[07:51] <fogwar> wols_: i dont know where it installed it
[07:51] <predaeus> novato_br, are you connected to the cable modem by a ethernet nic (a regular network card/cable)?
[07:51] <Znuff> Trixsey, would help if you'd specify what video card you have.
[07:51] <novato_br> i'll take the logs
[07:51] <fogwar> wols_: nvm
[07:51] <wols_> fogwar: it's int he path or root's path so don't worry
[07:51] <Trixsey> I have a Radeon X700 Mobility
[07:51] <Scunizi> flac, what do you mean locales problem?
[07:51] <novato_br> ethernet nic = integrated card
[07:51] <novato_br> my network card is integrated
[07:51] <predaeus> ok
[07:51] <novato_br> my chipset is nforce 430
[07:51] <dfgas> anyone use nerolinux in here?
[07:52] <fogwar> wols_: okay sorry to keep being annoying, but im in gparted and i dunno how to resize it.... i unmount first? then resize?
[07:52] <wols_> novato_br: have you rebooted yet with the forcedeth in /etc/modutils/?
[07:52] <flac> Scunizi: I speak french, sorry ... special caracters appear as '?', for instance
[07:52] <novato_br> my motherboard is asus M2NPV-VM
[07:52] <predaeus> novato_br, does "ifconfig" list your ip address under the eth0 section?
[07:52] <caner> i changed my keyboard layout to turkish but it is still english.i am using gnome. once i turned it into chinese or smth like that. i dont know which shortcut did it but i am having serious trouble could you please tell me what the problem can be. in the menu there seems turkish only but enlish is the actual layout.
[07:52] <wols_> fogwar: what OS are you running right now?
[07:52] <Znuff> flag: you shouldn't use special chars in your HTML files anyway.
[07:52] <fogwar> ubuntu 6
[07:52] <wols_> fogwar: and yes, you can't resize a partition that is mounted rw
[07:52] <gocciadisangue> if my graphics chip is igp340m, can i have the 3d?
[07:52] <Znuff> flag: or, if you do, use utf-8
[07:52] <wols_> gocciadisangue: yes
[07:52] <wols_> gocciadisangue: lspci -v
[07:52] <novato_br> see with own eyes, predaeus
[07:52] <Scunizi> flac,  no problem.  So what you're saying is that when you are configuring things the "special" characters get in the way?
[07:52] <flac> Znuff: I use utf-8
[07:52] <rouslan> Is gkrellm light on resources for servers?
[07:53] <novato_br> [predaeus] : http://pastebin.ca/534057 -> ifconfig-a log's file
[07:53] <Znuff> flac: url please?
[07:53] <fogwar> wols_: okay well i right clicked the drive and hit unmount nad nothing happened realy
[07:53] <wols_> rouslan: you cannot run gkrellm on servers: servers don't run X
[07:53] <flac> Znuff: http://rosa.via.ecp.fr/Site
[07:53] <flac> it's kinda ugly ...
[07:53] <wols_> fogwar: answer my question
[07:53] <Scunizi> flac, sounds like Znuff is on the right track.. I'll go quiet.
[07:53] <rouslan> wols_: I run a gui server-is it really that bad?
[07:53] <fogwar> wols_: ubuntu
[07:53] <wols_> fogwar: miunted from where
[07:53] <wols_> rouslan: yes
[07:53] <iman> hey
[07:53] <wols_> fogwar: ie how did you boot?
[07:53] <Trixsey> I'm using a Radeon X700 Mobility in Edgy, and when I enable the proprietary drivers (In the RDM), my screen goes black. Any ideas?
[07:54] <fogwar> wols_: i booted from my HD
[07:54] <flac> Scunizi: But I tried to use Utf-8, ISO, ISO@EUro ... nothing does
[07:54] <Znuff> flac, are you using some sort of CMS?
[07:54] <rouslan> wols_: Does X use so much resources? Windows Server 2003 is gui.
[07:54] <fogwar> wols_: do i need to boot from livecd?
[07:54] <novato_br> [predaeus] : do you saw?
[07:54] <wols_> fogwar: is the partition you want to resize mounted rw?
[07:54] <flac> Znuff: CMS ?
[07:54] <fogwar> wols_: i dont know
[07:54] <Znuff> flac: content management system
[07:54] <wols_> rouslan: which is windows is no server os even when MS says so
[07:54] <flac> Znuff: what s it ?
[07:54] <gocciadisangue> wols_ in pvt you can see the output
[07:54] <wols_> rouslan: but they are in the business of telling lies, so that's no sruprise
[07:54] <wols_> gocciadisangue: no
[07:54] <wols_> !paste
[07:54] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[07:54] <predaeus> novato_br, yes, I am thinking :-)     can you "ping 64.233.187.99"?
[07:55] <gocciadisangue> !paste
[07:55] <gocciadisangue> ??
[07:55] <novato_br> i'll try, predaeus
[07:55] <rouslan> wols_: At least it's easier to configure the server through gui.
[07:55] <non|linear> are there any good guis for gnplot?
[07:55] <novato_br> i'll go, now to linux
[07:55] <non|linear> gnuplot*
[07:55] <Znuff> flac: let me ask this another way: how is your website designed? plain .html files?
[07:55] <predaeus> novato_br, probably it is just DNS not resolving the urls
[07:55] <fogwar> wols_: someone @ my door... brb
[07:55] <flac> Znuff: yes
[07:55] <Znuff> flac: or are you using databases and such?
[07:55] <novato_br> ok
[07:55] <wols_> Pensacola: considering he did a "dhclient eth0" after bootup which as awlays, worked: of course. his problem is that he has to run dhclient manually after bootup. not that it doesn't work at all
[07:55] <gocciadisangue> wols_, what must i do?
[07:55] <flac> Znuff: these are just html files that I wrote
[07:55] <wols_> |paste | gocciadisangue
[07:55] <wols_> !paste | gocciadisangue

[07:56] <Znuff> flac: well, there you go, your webserver is not sending the content as utf-8: Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1
[07:56] <flac> Znuff: ok, CMS is just like Xoops or Spip ..
[07:56] <Scunizi> flac, I think you can set the language coding in the header lines of the html.... if you hand made the page.. I'm a novice at this so there's not much more I can add.. sorry.
[07:56] <bullgard4> I inserted a data DVD and mounted it using Disk Mounter. Nautilus shows 2 identical directories /media/cdrom and /media/cdrom0. Why?
[07:56] <flac> Scunizi: thanks anyway
[07:56] <flac> !
[07:56] <Znuff> flac: yes, Xoops, wordpress, joomla, modxcms, postnuke, phpnuke... you name it.
[07:56] <flac> ok
[07:56] <gocciadisangue> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23929/
[07:56] <Znuff> flac: so you're using plain html files, right?
[07:56] <flac> Znuff: I have to configure apache ?
[07:57] <Znuff> flac: just a sec.

[08:00] <Znuff> flac: it's really simple. You have to edit /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, search for a line with AddDefaultCharset
[08:00] <Znuff> flac: you have to uncomment that line, (remove the # in front) and replace ISO- whatever with UTF-8
[08:00] <wols_> gocciadisangue: sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg. choose "ati" for the driver
[08:00] <marco_linux> wols_, I created three partitions, one primary for the system, one logical for the home directory and one logical for the swap.
[08:01] <gocciadisangue> wols- but there is just ati
[08:01] <marco_linux> I didn't change anything else.
[08:01] <flac> Znuff: Ok this line was commented :)
[08:01] <Znuff> flac: just uncomment it and replace it with UTF-8
[08:01] <wols_> gocciadisangue: there should be a long list with different graphics chips and one for vesa

[08:04] <marco_linux> hello, I trying to install Ubuntu Feisty on a Siemens laptop, but when I try to reboot the system after instalation I got this message always: "Hard Disk boot sector Invalid".
[08:04] <Znuff> flac: well, maybe your browser is caching the page
[08:04] <flac> I'll try on a windows PC and i'll say
[08:05] <Znuff> flac: just hold shift while you refresh
[08:05] <flac> Ok it's good :)
[08:05] <flac> Znuff: thanks a lot !
[08:05] <spitefulcrow> Anyone know how to get Bluetooth working to sync calendar/contacts with a Sony Ericsson phone?
[08:06] <overridex> Znuff: yeah, but there's a gtk-engine to use the current QT theme... just curious if there was something for the other way around
[08:06] <kiersie>  i have a problem with 5.1 sound from a ck804 8 cheannel
[08:06] <Znuff> overridex, think there's one that does the opposite, but I never used it so I wouldn't know :P
[08:07] <Znuff> overridex, probably a good googling on "gtk themes qt" will give you an answer
[08:08] <theshadow> anyone know why when I use "unzip *.zip" I keep getting "caution: filename not matched: myfile001.zip"
[08:08] <Znuff> overridex, lookie: GTK applications will now be themed using your current KDE widget style. Note that the changes made in this KDE Control Center module will only affect applications while KDE is running. If you want to use KDE themes in GNOME, you will need to use the GNOME control panel to select the "Qt" theme engine.
[08:09] <Znuff> overridex, so basically the gtk-qt package does both things
[08:09] <morfeene> I'm having trouble getting better than 1024x768 with radeon 9800 on a samsung 243 24 inch monitor - anyone got any ideas?
[08:10] <overridex> Znuff: hmm....
[08:10] <wols_> morfeene:  what driver do you use right now?
[08:10] <wols_> morfeene: I'm guessing vesa
[08:10] <stefg> !fixres | morfeene
[08:10] <ubotu> morfeene: 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
[08:10] <morfeene> hi wols - it's ati and I did dpkg-reconfigure like you asked and no joy
[08:10] <theshadow> morfeene: check your /etc/Xorg.conf file make sure your monitor and device sections are setup correctly
[08:11] <morfeene> ubotu - thx - I'll go check that out
[08:11] <masingerz> anybody here have any experience with ndiswrapper
[08:11] <ffm> Are there any disk tools I should be running routinely in ubuntu, like ScanDisk for Windows and defragging?
[08:12] <Scunizi> morfeene, ubotu is a bot... just in case you didn't know :)  check the line before the ubotu post to see how it's done.
[08:12] <wols_> ffm: no
[08:12] <ffm> wols_, So, how should I maintain my FS?
[08:12] <shane_>  cooler gnome or KDU?
[08:12] <overridex> ffm: the file system is journaling, so you don't really need to scandisk ever...
[08:12] <fogwar> wols_: back
[08:13] <stefg> ffm: no, fsck will run every 30 moutns by default anyway, and linux filesystems do not fragment
[08:13] <wols_> ffm: you simply use it
[08:13] <ffm> overridex, Journaling?
[08:13] <wols_> stefg: that is a lie btw
[08:13] <overridex> ffm: and it doesn't get fragmented measurably unless you consistently have almost no free space
[08:13] <ffm> So, nothing to do, ever?
[08:13] <wols_> stefg: linux filesystems do fragment like others
[08:13] <fogwar> wols_: so what exactly do i need to do? do i need to resize via liveCD or something?
[08:13] <stefg> wols_: ok, do ot fragement to a point were user intervention is necessary on a regular basis
[08:13] <ffm> No maintince?
[08:14] <EADG__> ffm: none
[08:14] <wols_> fogwar: either via livecd or remount the partition read only
[08:14] <ffm> Thanks.
[08:14] <fogwar> wols_: let me run live CD bb
[08:14] <EightEleven> ffm: Regular backups maybe?
[08:14] <overridex> ffm: the FS writes a journal of what it's doing when when it finishes... like "i'm starting to write blah blah" and "i'm done writing blah blah" so that if your power goes out or you crash, when you boot back up it can correct what might of been half-done
[08:14] <Scunizi> ffm, overridex ,  with ext3 it will do a self check every "x" number of boots or after 90-180 days..
[08:14] <wols_> fogwar: at the time you resize the partition must be read only or not be mounted
[08:14] <ffm> Thanks, EADG__, Scunizi , overridex , wols_ , EightEleven .
[08:14] <mujahid> hi, I am having trobule installing 7.0.4 on my laptop - I boot from the cd and then the screen just goes blank; I already checked the cd and it seems to be w/o an defects -

[08:15] <viljamo> How to remove the text on the icons in Nautilus?
[08:16] <EightEleven> ffm: Depends on your backup medium
[08:16] <MarieK> I am running Dapper i was wondering if a new one came out so i could upgrade?
[08:16] <ffm> Also, I think that http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/templates/TC101130621033.aspx?pid=CT101043291033 is a copy of ubuntu's color scheme.

[08:19] <marco_linux> I am trying to install Ubuntu Feisty on a Siemens laptop, but when I try to reboot the system after instalation I got this message always: "Hard Disk boot sector Invalid". Anyone can help me?
[08:19] <smokie> can any1 help, im having prob upgrading from dapper to edgy
[08:19] <CyberAngel> question:
[08:20] <taller> viva ubuntu
[08:20] <hub_> installed ubuntu Grub loading ?
[08:20] <Dutchy> so the howto says tells me to: cp /etc/sysconfig/kernel /etc/sysconfig/kernel.orig
[08:20] <hub_> smokie start update-manager
[08:20] <Dutchy> but that does not exist on ubuntu, where can i find it?
[08:20] <Znuff> Dutchy, you'll probably have to ask someone what exactly does that file do on suse
[08:20] <startswithz_> help, I recently added a windows system on a separate harddrive.  both booted properly a couple of times but now my linux system has crashed out
[08:21] <MarieK> is there something i can just type in the terminial
[08:21] <startswithz_> I cannot even get to the filesystem through knoppix
[08:21] <CyberAngel> what is the diference between Ubuntu and Edubuntu?
[08:21] <smokie> i already did, but it brings up an error
[08:21] <Znuff> CyberAngel, different target
[08:21] <hub_> edu ubuntu is for children
[08:21] <Dutchy> Znuff: ok i guess ill try asking in a suse channel :o
[08:21] <CyberAngel> One of the links to Ubuntu desktop was bad and I ended up with Edubuntu
[08:22] <smokie> its says cant find repository index
[08:22] <Deviad> How can I solve croacking audio issue?
[08:23] <CyberAngel> is it worth re-instaling with Ubuntu instead of Edubuntu?
[08:23] <marco_linux> I am trying to install Ubuntu Feisty on a Siemens laptop, but when I try to reboot the system after instalation I got this message always: "Hard Disk boot sector Invalid". Anyone can help me?
[08:23] <hylje> CyberAngel: edu is just a different set of packages
[08:23] <hub_> install with edgy and update than after reebot
[08:24] <Znuff> Dutchy, but, guess what? :P
[08:24] <Znuff> Dutchy, you're in luck
[08:24] <CyberAngel> ok, Then I should be able to install Ubuntu on top of Edubunt and that will wipe edubuntu
[08:24] <thedeviantone> Has anyone added SCSI controller support to 6.06 LTS ?
[08:24] <Ashfire908> i can't get ubuntu to understand my server's hard drive array
[08:24] <Znuff> Dutchy, it seems that if you just copy the DSDT.aml file to /etc/initramfs-tools/DSDT.aml, initramfs will use it!
[08:24] <hub_> scsi = sata ???
[08:24] <Ranpha1> Hi, is there a tool where you can read your bios settings?
[08:25] <PurpZeY> Ranpha1: Bios setup?
[08:25] <Frosh> hi
[08:25] <hub_> forget it ^^
[08:25] <H4wk> CyberAngel: install ubuntu-desktop and then uninstall edubuntu-desktop
[08:25] <Frosh> http://www.milinds.com/ubuntu_linux_how_get_dwl_g122_rev_d1_work_ubuntu_7_04_fiesty_052007
[08:25] <Znuff> Ranpha1, no
[08:25] <CyberAngel> oh, hmm.. didn't know I could do that
[08:25] <Frosh> when I try sudo dpkg -i ndiswrapper-*
[08:25] <Ranpha1> purpZey yes bios, i need to see the wake up time sttings
[08:25] <Frosh> I get an error saying it doesn't exist
[08:25] <CyberAngel> thanks h4wk
[08:25] <Znuff> CyberAngel, better yet, just apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and that's it, don't remove edubuntu... it's a pain to do it
[08:26] <_fjas_> hrrrmf, my ubuntu 7.02 disk simply reboots the machine after displaying ISOLINUX....blahblah.....anyone familiar with this??
[08:26] <Ranpha1> or a script/tool that sends me a e-mail when the pc has finished booting?
[08:26] <marco_linux> I am trying to install Ubuntu Feisty on a Siemens laptop, but when I try to reboot the system after instalation I got this message always: "Hard Disk boot sector Invalid". Anyone can help me?
[08:26] <CyberAngel> ok, I'll give it a try, I'll have to reboot into Ubuntu
[08:26] <startswithz_> ranpha1 you can look at bios by pressing esc at the beginning of boot process
[08:26] <factorx> Is it possible to read and write HFS+ partitions with Ubuntu?
[08:26] <hub_> in terminal can look bios data !
[08:26] <Dutchy> Znuff: the command actually made a DSDT.hex, is that going to work too? man iasl didnt give any info on how to make a .aml

[08:26] <ubotu> To view your Windows/Mac partitions see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AutomaticallyMountPartitions - See also !fuse
[08:26] <Ranpha1> startswithz_ there is about 60 km between me and the pc
[08:26] <Znuff> Dutchy, I have no idea, to be honest.
[08:27] <Znuff> Dutchy, I don't even know what .aml files are :-)
[08:27] <startswithz_> ranpha1 yikes
[08:27] <Dutchy> Znuff: hehe ok :D ill just try it :P
[08:27] <_fjas_> do i have to create a ext2 partition before booting from ubuntu cd, or does ubuntu fix this ??
[08:27] <Znuff> Dutchy, but rename it to .aml
[08:27] <factorx> dr_willis: ty

[08:28] <Gwall> does anyone know a music downloader like limewire for ubuntu
[08:28] <SoftIce> goodday does it matter if you use snort 2.6 rules on snort 2.3 ?
[08:28] <Znuff> Frosh, just skip that step if apt-get worked

[08:28] <hub_> no but frost iwre ; dont work
[08:28] <Frosh> Znuff: ok
[08:30] <MarieK> Gtk-gnutella will not open any suggestions to fix it?
[08:30] <hub_> frosh you get a foto 455 ???
[08:31] <thedeviantone> Can anyone assist me with compiling a kernel for SCSI controller support?
[08:31] <Znuff> MarieK, run it from a terminal and see if it spits out any error message
[08:31] <hub_> find a how to for linuyx kernel is simple
[08:31] <hub_> google search with pdf files
[08:31] <Znuff> thedeviantone, first you should specify what controller you have
[08:31] <MarieK> when i do that the terminal closes right away

[08:38] <fbc> guys, I have a big problem. I connected a USB drive to my computer and tried to install VISTA on it for a work related project.  Now my system won't boot. Grub will load and it just stops at BUSYBOX 1.3. I'm in Rescue mode, and it tells me it can't mount the filesystem at /dev/hda1. What can I do?
[08:38] <wols_> MarieK: try to run it from an xterm
[08:38] <Death_Sargent> how do I edit gnome power profiles
[08:38] <PurpZeY> fbc: Vista doesn't play well with others...
[08:39] <MarieK> from a terminial u mean?
[08:39] <fbc> PurpZeY: Yeah, I'm finding that out the hardway..
[08:39] <wols_> fbc: could be vista wrote its bootloader in /dev/hda1?
[08:39] <Dutchy> Znuff: that also tells me it needs parameters
[08:39] <PurpZeY> Death_Sargent: For laptop power?
[08:39] <Death_Sargent> the default version of the gnome powerprofile for "ondemand" is broken I want to fix it
[08:39] <wols_> fbc: try to mount it in busybox. what is the error message?
[08:39] <Death_Sargent> ondemeand often causes freezups
[08:39] <fbc> wols_: filesystem unrecognized
[08:40] <Death_Sargent> PurpZey: for ondemand mode
[08:40] <Death_Sargent> PurpZey: ondemand tends to cause freezups
[08:40] <PurpZeY> Death_Sargent: Sorry, don't think I can help you there. . .
[08:40] <Death_Sargent> PurpZey I have to have it on preformance just to prevent the system from freezing
[08:40] <Death_Sargent> damn
[08:40] <wols_> fbc: yep. vista killed your ubuntu
[08:40] <AngryElf> wols_, LSI Logic Symbios Logic ...?
[08:40] <stefg> fbc: your best bet is to boot a Desktop-CD to check if how the partitions look
[08:40] <wally> hello, I'm looking for a little help with partitions. I've decided to ditch Windows all together and go with Ubuntu 100%. I want to merge my winodws partition with my Ubuntu partition, but it isn't liking it
[08:40] <fbc> wols, PurpZeY : let me bootup with the 7.04 desktop cd and verify that my data is still there...
[08:41] <wols_> AngryElf: LSI is a company. they make more than one kind of chip...
[08:41] <fbc> stefg: you beat me to the punch.
[08:41] <AngryElf> are we talking about the PCI SCSI card driver or the driver for the backplane?
[08:41] <AngryElf> ..if there is such a thing
[08:41] <PurpZeY> wally: Merge your partitions?
[08:41] <illriginal> Hey guys, I'm trying to empty my trash, but it's giving me this error: /home/illrig...hort_tag.Po" cannot be deleted because you do not have permissions to modify its parent folder.
[08:42] <wols_> fbc: it killed your ubuntu partition. you might be able to mount it with an alternative superblock (8192) but that's it
[08:42] <CyberAngel> Any decent bluetooth utilities that allow browsing bluetooth devices?
[08:42] <stefg> fbc: you need a rescue system, that is one of the purposes of the Desktop-CDs
[08:42] <Fawaz> which file changes what network interface dhcpd listens too?
[08:42] <MarieK> wols...when i run in a term...it closes right away
[08:42] <PurpZeY> CyberAngel: I *think* WifiRadar does bluetooth....Not positive.
[08:42] <fbc> wols_:  cool, thanx for the advice... lemme see what happens with the desktop cd.. it's booting now.
[08:42] <CyberAngel> PurpZey: ok, I'll look into it
[08:43] <CyberAngel> now if I could get car whisperer to work :)

[08:43] <stefg> ahmed: so install the kernel sources

[08:44] <zeeeee> here's what's happening: http://rafb.net/p/B9GZQJ57.html
[08:44] <PurpZeY> fbc: netsplit
[08:44] <PurpZeY> !netsplit
[08:44] <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
[08:44] <zeeeee> any help would be much appreciated
[08:44] <__fjas__> my ubuntu 7.04 cd simply reboots after displaying ISOLINUX....blahblah on the initial screen, anyone know what this problem might be??
[08:44] <wols_> fbc: netsplit. serves you right to have beep on joins in a 1200 people channel
[08:44] <fbc> PurpZeY: ahh...
[08:44] <AngryElf> wols_, Logic 53c1030 pci-x fusion mpt dual ultra320 scsi ...does that help?
[08:45] <fbc> wols_:  yeah, it sounded like my computer was farting..
[08:45] <wols_> sure. now google if there is a driver anywhere for it. if you are really lucky, it might be even in ubuntu
[08:45] <jtreglos> do I have to rebuild my kernel to add the support of the smbfs filesystem ? Or could I add it with a module ?
[08:45] <CyberAngel> fbc: lol
[08:45] <novato_br> ae galera
[08:45] <novato_br> hi, wols
[08:45] <fbc> CyberAngel: :-p
[08:45] <wols_> jtreglos: ubuntu has that already in its kernel. no need to do anything
[08:45] <novato_br> are you here?
[08:45] <novato_br> wols_: are you here?
[08:45] <novato_br> im on linyx, again
[08:45] <novato_br> i'm very very help
[08:45] <novato_br> i'm very very happy
[08:45] <jtreglos> wols_: weird, it doesn't seem to be here... How could I check ?
[08:45] <AngryElf> wols_, well if it were in ubuntu already wouldn't it be detected and loaded?
[08:46] <novato_br> i can connect to internet by linux
[08:46] <wols_> AngryElf: only if ubuntu has a driver for it
[08:46] <novato_br> the error was dns resolution problem
[08:46] <mneptok> wols_: please take 10 minutes in The Big Blue Room :)
[08:46] <wols_> jtreglos: grep -i smbf /boot/config*
[08:46] <wols_> mneptok: what for?
[08:46] <novato_br> i think the problem solved
[08:46] <jtreglos> k
[08:47] <wols_> jtreglos: grep -i smbf /boot/config*
[08:47] <mneptok> wols_: a break. you're beginning to scare me. :)
[08:47] <wols_> jtreglos: grep -i cifs /boot/config* rather
[08:47] <jtreglos> k
[08:47] <fbc> Cool... this time I didn't hear the farting sound.
[08:47] <wols_> jtreglos: but I am sure ubuntu has it by default
[08:47] <PurpZeY> fbc: I did and my sound is off....whoops.
[08:47] <wols_> jtreglos: what is the error message you get?
[08:47] <mneptok> wols_: or, at least, close your eyes fo a few minutes :)
[08:47] <sax_> WTF?
[08:47] <CyberAngel> wow, these netsplits are getting worse
[08:47] <PurpZeY> !netsplit | sax_

[08:49] <jtreglos> wols_: well I can mount the remote filesystem using smbmount, but when I add it to fstab using the smbfs filesystem, it hangs for a few minutes at boot time, and the mount point isn't connected
[08:50] <wols_> jtreglos: username/password most probably
[08:50] <robert98374> wols sorry i couldnt tell if people could read what i said because of all the log offs
[08:50] <wols_> and use "mount -t smbfs"
[08:50] <CyberAngel> fbc: wifiradar doesn't do Bluetooth
[08:50] <CyberAngel> jfyi
[08:50] <jesus__> y como lo hago?
[08:50] <|R3g1s_S4|> any brazilian here?
[08:50] <jtreglos> wols_: instead of smbmount you mean ?
[08:50] <wols_> jtreglos: yes
[08:50] <jtreglos> k
[08:51] <PurpZeY> CyberAngel: It was me who recommended...My mistake, I just it might have.
[08:51] <PurpZeY> thought*
[08:51] <novato_br> wols_: why doesn't connect the computer on the net without resolution DNS?
[08:51] <CyberAngel> oh, yeah, sorry
[08:51] <CyberAngel> PurpZey: np
[08:51] <fbc> wols_: OK, I think vista jacked me up pretty bad. It can't mount the FS. It says wrong FS type, etc.. so how can I recover this thing..
[08:52] <sax_> fbc what can you hit with a live cd?
[08:52] <novato_br> to solve my problem, i setting my connection to static ip
[08:52] <Ashfire908> i can't get ubuntu to understand my server's hard drive array. when it starts up the partitioner, it says "Unable to determine feomertry of file/device. You should not use Parted unless you REALLY know what you are doing!"   "Ignore" "Cancel"
[08:52] <sax_> like slax, it can do any fs
[08:52] <wols_> novato_br: how would I know? a DNS server entry without connection to the internet is pretty useless...
[08:52] <fbc> sax_:  Nothing... everything is the wrong fs.
[08:52] <neo__> hi
[08:52] <neo__> i need help
[08:52] <novato_br> wols
[08:52] <novato_br> hehee
[08:53] <CyberAngel> what do you need neo_?
[08:53] <pike_> hello unwashed masses
[08:53] <sax_> ooooh fbc that sucks
[08:53] <Ashfire908> i can't get ubuntu to understand my server's hard drive array. when it starts up the partitioner, it says "Unable to determine feomertry of file/device. You should not use Parted unless you REALLY know what you are doing!"   "Ignore" "Cancel"

[08:53] <stefg> fbc: what does sudo fdisk -l say?
[08:53] <Dutchy> god im going to ignore quits and joins in this channel
[08:53] <sax_> see if a slax cd can mount any of them
[08:53] <fbc> stefg:  let me see..
[08:53] <sax_> fbc
[08:54] <jtreglos> wols_: ok, it works fine using mount -t smbfs, but still not when I add it to the fstab... I must have a formatting problem with my fstab line
[08:54] <sax_> slax.org, I think
[08:54] <Ashfire908> could someone help me???
[08:54] <neo__> CyberAngel, i don't know how to add network manager to the side panel
[08:55] <wols_> fbc: your vista overwrote the first few kBytes of your ubunut install. try to mount with a different superblock. man mount, then search for sb= or superblock
[08:55] <wols_> jtreglos: paste the line
[08:55] <jtreglos> k
[08:55] <neo__> CyberAngel, i mean network manager applet
[08:56] <loos> Hi, if I want to update an already gentoo running box to Ubuntu, where's the best place to get docs?
[08:56] <jtreglos>  //alexandrie/projects /mnt/alexandrie smbfs credentials=/etc/samba/pw 0 0
[08:56] <zeeeee> it's as if nothing i do to the /etc/sudoers file even makes a difference...how do i see what sudo is doing? isn't there some way to get debug/verbose output? or some log somewhere?
[08:56] <PurpZeY> neo__: It's called nm-applet
[08:56] <stefg> loos: there is no updating, ther's only reinstalling
[08:56] <loos> kay
[08:56] <loos> thanks
[08:57] <pike_> loos: yeah best bet is to backup home and reinstall
[08:57] <wols_> jtreglos: and what is the error when you do "mount mnt/alexandrie" ?
[08:57] <fbc> wols, stefg , PurpZeY : The fdisk -l shows everythign is there and fine, and even shows /dev/hda1 set as boot.  I will try the man mount  and see if I can find the superblock. If there some command I can type that will restore the boot sector / partition or whatever it was that was overwritten? Should I just try to install grub again to fix the problem?
[08:57] <SamWise_TheGreat> where is my azureus installation located?
[08:57] <neo__> PurpZeY, but i can not find it when i want to add it

[08:57] <wols_> lancetw: you can either run a debootstrap or reinstall. you can't "upgrade"
[08:58] <wols_> SamWise_TheGreat: dpkg -L <packagename> | grep bin
[08:58] <SamWise_TheGreat> wols_ tanks
[08:58] <PurpZeY> neo__: Have to make sure to add it to the system monitor area, not the panel....You can try to just run the command-line, screen, then nm-applet &
[08:59] <chamunks> Im looking to set my lamp server to seed torrents along side the rest of my stuff.  What im wondering is what conf files would i need to edit to start the seeding at system boot?
[08:59] <jtreglos> wols_: when I do the mount manually, it works... Here's the command-line I use for the manual mounting : mount -t smbfs //alexandrie/projects /mnt/alexandrie -o credentials=/etc/samba/pw
[08:59] <stefg> fbc: my guess is that grub, and the superblock of hda1 are overwritten. you could try  if an fsck restores it from backup
[08:59] <neo__> PurpZeY, cool i found it, it works
[08:59] <SamWise_TheGreat> wols_ it only tels me where the bin is
[08:59] <neo__> PurpZeY, thanks
[08:59] <W8TAH> hi folks - -is there a repo for (x)ubuntu that woudl be the equivalent of running ~ packages in gentoo?
[08:59] <PurpZeY> neo__: No worries.
[08:59] <wols_> SamWise_TheGreat: that is all you can know. there is not dumb "program files" in linux
[09:00] <BigToe>  <disclaimer> gotta figure out how to send something on port 0
[09:00] <BigToe> is there a port 0?
[09:00] <pike_> chamunks: well im not familiar with lamp setups but you can make a script put it in /etc/init.d/ and do 'update-rc.d -f scriptname defaults' there is an example skeleton script in that directory
[09:00] <wols_> SamWise_TheGreat: so your question doesn't make much sense. the docs are in /usr/share/doc/, the manpage in /usr/share/man, the binaries in /usr/X11R6/Bin, etc

[09:02] <mr_laggy> hello
[09:02] <pike_> mr_laggy: hi
[09:02] <Ranpha1> how can i automatic send a mail when booting?
[09:02] <Ashfire908> it's a very old server.
[09:02] <Ashfire908> 2001.

[09:03] <pike_> mr_laggy: a bit. what is the problem?
[09:03] <mr_laggy> well i installed the windows wireless thing
[09:03] <pike_> mr_laggy: ndiswrapper?
[09:03] <mr_laggy> somethign wrapper
[09:03] <mr_laggy> yes
[09:03] <mr_laggy> but it still dont reconise my card
[09:03] <bruno_> i have a problem with my audio card, it works only if i boot on windows xp before booting on ubuntu, can someone help me?
[09:03] <jtreglos> wols_: you got an idea ?
[09:04] <stefg> !raid | Ashfire908
[09:04] <PurpZeY> mr_laggy: ndiswrapper can be finicky in my experience.

[09:04] <wols_> Ranpha1: make a rc.local file and use the mail command in ther
[09:04] <pike_> mr_laggy: ive never used it myself so im probably not the best person to speak with. im sure someone else here can advise you better
[09:04] <mr_laggy> well
[09:04] <mr_laggy> i was told erlier to download my card drivers aswell
[09:04] <novato_br> how can I make the tutorial to help peoples with the same problem than mine ?
[09:04] <mr_laggy> and look for some .sys files
[09:04] <wols_> jtreglos: do what I asked and tell me the result
[09:04] <Ranpha1> wols_ i'm a total noob in that. Is there a example or tutorial i can read?
[09:04] <mr_laggy> do you know what the .sys file are i need to look for?
[09:04] <pike_> novato_br: you can make a page on the wiki. wiki.ubnuntu.com
[09:04] <wols_> !rc.local
[09:04] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rc.local - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[09:05] <novato_br> wow, thx, pike_
[09:05] <jtreglos> ok
[09:05] <wols_> Ranpha1: don't kno of any
[09:05] <jakub__> hello.what does mean 'executable'?
[09:05] <wols_> jakub__: a file you can run as a program
[09:05] <fbc> wols_ PurpZeY stefg : what is the superblock number that I should try... I tried sudo mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /media/hda1 and  I get the wrong fs bad superblock error.. I also tried the same thing with the SMBFS option and it gave me the same thing..
[09:05] <wols_> determined by the executable file flag
[09:05] <Fawaz> i have downloaded a package let's say blah.deb .. how to install it using command line?
[09:05] <Ranpha1> Wols_ find it funny that nobody else in this whole world has ever thought of this...can't find aything on google lol
[09:05] <PurpZeY> mr_laggy: Basically, what you are doing w/ ndiswrapper is installing a windows driver into ubuntu. What you need to do is download the windows driver...which is a sys and an inf. you use that with ndiswrapper. So, the sys file is wherever you put it.
[09:06] <jakub__> wols_:thank you
[09:06] <wols_> Ranpha1: they have. it's a trivial thing
[09:06] <pike_> jakub__: youll notice if you ls -l in the terminal some files have the x flag on the left of the screen. you can chmod +x filename to add that flag
[09:06] <zeeeee> anybody?
[09:06] <stefg> fbc: can you run fsck on that drive?
[09:06] <mr_laggy> i think i know what .sys files i need
[09:06] <fbc> stefg:  I can try
[09:06] <jtreglos> wols_: weird, it works when i do mount /mnt/alexandrie !
[09:06] <Ranpha1> wols_ and nobody written a tutorial about it :-)
[09:06] <Fawaz> i have downloaded a package let's say blah.deb .. .. how to install it using command line?
[09:06] <mr_laggy> can someone tell em how to put them into ndis wrapper PLEASE
[09:06] <wols_> stefg: he can't. no superblock. unless he gives fsck a working superblock
[09:06] <PurpZeY> mr_laggy: You can't think, you have to know...b/c if you install the wrong drivers it's not going to work.
[09:06] <wols_> e.g. same problem as with mount
[09:06] <bruno_> i have a problem with my audio card, it works only if i boot on windows xp before booting on ubuntu, can someone help me?
[09:07] <wols_> Fawaz: dpkg
[09:07] <mr_laggy> i just need to know how to make ndiswrapper have these files
[09:07] <pawel21> hi, how can i find the 10 last modified files all over my system? is there a nice command line?
[09:07] <mr_laggy> some code or something
[09:07] <fbc> stefg: ok, I got group descriptors look bad, and  it's trying the backup blocks... and running the first pass now...
[09:07] <wols_> pawel21: find. but I don't know the exact command
[09:07] <stefg> fbc: looks promising
[09:07] <fbc> stefg:  standby
[09:07] <bruno_> hello
[09:08] <pawel21> wols_, i played with find but i got only n*24 hours
[09:08] <pike_> pawel21: you might be able to sudo ls -tR / | head but im not sure if that would work
[09:08] <PurpZeY> mr_laggy: ndiswrapper -i /driver/location.inf
[09:08] <mr_laggy> what will that do?
[09:08] <Frosh> install the drivers
[09:08] <pawel21> pike_, ok thanks testing
[09:09] <fbc> stefg: BTW... This laptop is a turion x64 should I use the 64 bit version of ubuntu or continue using the i386 version?
[09:09] <mr_laggy> kk
[09:09] <PurpZeY> mr_laggy: Ndiswrapper will install the drivers....
[09:09] <mr_laggy> thnx
[09:09] <fbc> stefg: are tehre any drawbacks?
[09:09] <synic> once you install language-support-de, what do you need to run to apply it?
[09:09] <stefg> fbc: stay with 32-bit. more convinient, and the real-life perfomance gain /esp. on a notebook) is neglibile
[09:10] <wols_> fbc: i386. you will want things like java and flash
[09:10] <pike_> pawel21: you can ls -ltR / | head -n 30 for the first thirty lines but again not sure
[09:10] <mneptok> fbc: there is no Flash for x86-64
[09:10] <pawel21> pike_, ok nice i try it
[09:10] <SuperNov1> whats the difference between GTK2 and metacity themes?
[09:10] <fbc> mneptok:  no flash?   damn... I thing I will stay i386... sounds like the x64 hasn't got it together yet.
[09:11] <LjL> pawel21: find -printf "%T@ %p\n" | sort -n | tail
[09:11] <xcd> fbc: you can run flash in x86
[09:11] <jrib> fbc: more like adobe doesn't have it together, but you can use the 32bit plugin with nspluginwrapper
[09:11] <LjL> pike_: ls won't work because, even with "-t", it will sort by directory first, when you use "-R"
[09:11] <pawel21> LjL, wow looks great thanks bro!
[09:11] <fbc> xcd: yes I do
[09:11] <pike_> LjL: ah. i see
[09:12] <p1ls> hey , is there a proram that will change your background like every 30min?
[09:12] <xcd> fbc: so you're using the 32bit flash now then?
[09:12] <Ranpha1> which program can send mail when it starts?
[09:12] <p1ls> Ranpha1, what do you mean
[09:13] <mneptok> fbc: it's not x86-64 that's the problem, it's Macodobe
[09:13] <bruno_> can someone help me with my audio card?
[09:13] <fbc> xcd:  yeah, I using the i386 copy of ubuntu
[09:13] <Ranpha1> p1ls i need to send a mail when my system starts. but since init/d scripting is beyond me i want to know if there is a prgram where  you can put in yout mail, smtp server and have that program startup with the complete system

[09:14] <aaanone> Does anyone know if there is a GTK theme that can be slightly translucent like you can set the desktop panels in GNOME?
[09:14] <wols_> Ranpha1: mail. man mail
[09:14] <fbc> xcd:  you mean x64 right?
[09:14] <bruenig> aaanone, none
[09:14] <p1ls> you can add programs to start when your system starts
[09:14] <p1ls> hey , is there a proram that will change your background like every 30min?
[09:14] <xcd> xcd: yes, i mean x86_64
[09:14] <Ranpha1> wols_ that's nice but it doesn't say anything about automatuc mail send at startup or how to configure it
[09:15] <PurpZeY> p1ls:  believe there is. I have to check a book I have, if you give me a minute I'll look
[09:15] <aaanone> bruenig: none at all? is it not possible or is it just that noone has done it
[09:15] <wols_> Ranpha1: it does say how to send mail, duh!
[09:15] <p1ls> PurpZey, that would be great.
[09:15] <bruenig> aaanone, not possible I would imagine, translucency is a tough thing
[09:15] <aaanone> bruenig: why is it possible for the desktop panels to be?
[09:15] <ward_> i have a program that only seems to work with ffmpeg installed from source, how can i make the program look into the right directory?
[09:15] <Ranpha1> wols_ yeah but i need it to send a standard mail when the system startsup without any user interface
[09:16] <ceti_> so long
[09:16] <ward_> error : error while loading shared libraries: libavcodec.so.51: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
[09:16] <dr_willis> p1ls,  there are tools that do that.. or ya could write a script to do it easially enough
[09:16] <aaanone> oh well, can anyone recommend some good GTK themes? I'm looking for one but I havent' found anyone I'm really happy with
[09:16] <g8tr> Im running fiesty 7.04, and a newb, when I go to Places -> Home Folder, the File Browser opens, but its all black.  Any ideas?
[09:16] <p1ls> dr_willis, im looking for a program, i dont need it its for my friend
[09:16] <dr_willis> aaanone,  tried all the ones in the package manager?
[09:16] <bruenig> aaanone, same reason that you can make the terminal transparent. But as far as gtk themes go, there is no translucency option, it is not part of the toolset if you will
[09:17] <aaanone> bruenig: okay, that makes sense, thanks for taking your time
[09:17] <pike_> g8tr: what happens if you open a terminal and type nautilus&
[09:17] <dr_willis> p1ls,  id say google for it Not sure what tools like that are in the repos.
[09:17] <fbc> stefg: OMG!!! It looks like fsck fixed it!!! Yippie.. I could see my files through the desktop CD. I'm going to try to reboot now..
[09:17] <jtreglos> wols_: ok so when I do "mount /mnt/alexandrie" it works fine, but when I reboot the server, it halts at bootup at "Starting hardware abstraction layer hald"... And a few minutes later it boots, and the mount didn't work
[09:17] <stefg> fbc, you need to fix grub
[09:18] <g8tr> pike_: same thing
[09:18] <chamunks> pike_, do you know much about openssh?
[09:18] <pike_> g8tr: any errors in terminal?
[09:18] <neo_> i could not display network manager applet in the panel, i don't know how to do
[09:18] <aaanone> dr_willis: there are themes in the package manager? how do I access them?
[09:18] <PurpZeY> p1ls: I believe the following package should help...http://wildbill.nulldevice.net/ubuntu/wp-tray_0.4.6-1_i386.deb -- install using sudo sdpkg
[09:18] <dr_willis> aaanone,  the package manager has this thing called a 'search feature' :)
[09:18] <fbc> stefg: nope.. Grub pulled up just fine... I'm already at my desktop... fsck is the sh#t!
[09:18] <wols_> jtreglos: try the mount as root (via sudo). cause at bootup mount isn't called by the normal user but by root
[09:18] <g8tr> it said  [1]  19101
[09:18] <p1ls> thanks, btw what book do you have or recomend about linux?
[09:19] <PurpZeY> p1ls: dpkg
[09:19] <dr_willis> aaanone,  fire up synapatic - search for 'theme'
[09:19] <pike_> chamunks: ?
[09:19] <wols_> jtreglos: and you still haven#t told us if there is an error at boot. logfiles
[09:19] <chamunks> pike_, I want to change the session timeout length on my openssh server via command line
[09:19] <pike_> g8tr: are you using a wierd theme or anything?
[09:19] <jtreglos> wols_: when I do mount /mnt/alexandrie, I do it as root via sudo
[09:19] <EADG__> p1ls: Lots of good sites on the web with tutorials.
[09:19] <g8tr> nope
[09:20] <pike_> chamunks: i think that is already in /etc/ssh/sshd_config file
[09:20] <PurpZeY> p1ls: I have 2 books i use...Ubuntu Hacks, which really is a poor name, as it has few hacks, and just gives you a general overview of commands and navigating...and also "Linux Handbook" or something similar...It's a medium sized book that has a lot of common commands indexed and explained.
[09:20] <g8tr> Is there 3rd party prog that would be similiar to windows explorer?
[09:20] <chamunks> pike_, ok it just times out on me rather frequently and id rather it stay open a bit longer
[09:20] <jtreglos> wols_: how could I have the boot mount work ? And where are the log files for the boot errors ?
[09:20] <fbc> stefg: That is so awesome.. Just when I thought all hope was lost, you go and pull a rabbit out of your a$$, and make the darn thing work again.. awesome.. hell I'd buy ya beer at least.
[09:21] <fbc> stefg: :-D
[09:21] <wols_> jtreglos: something in /var/log. grep for it
[09:21] <jtreglos> k
[09:21] <dr_willis> g8tr,  theres a great many file managers you can use under linux. I recall a site ages ago that summarized a lot of them. Not sure if it still exists however.
[09:21] <pike_> chamunks: but i think it would be ClientAliveInterval <number> in that file
[09:21] <chamunks> pike_, ok thanks lots
[09:21] <stefg> fbc: rather thank the fsck-developers (that's what it was written for)
[09:21] <Hitiek> I'm having a problem with a mdadm raid array. It was up and running, copied data to it. after a reboot, it won't re-assemble. one drive seems to have a different UUID in the superblock.

[09:24] <Gurxor> the packages dont seem to exist for me
[09:24] <pike_> chamunks: man sshd_config   and hit the / key to search and type it case sensitive. im on a bsd box so im not ab sure its the same with linux but if its in man file just add it to the sshd_config file and it should work
[09:24] <fogwar> wols_: how do i do it from windows
[09:24] <Gurxor> i have followed the instructions, i have had it working before with ubuntu

[09:26] <shiryu> how did i configure berryl
[09:26] <Gurxor> the newest doesnt work with my wireless
[09:26] <Gurxor> so had to downgrade
[09:26] <pike_> paul_it: /msg ubotu mp3
[09:26] <shiryu> i change some settings but nothing happens i cant see the cube

[09:26] <p1ls> Okay, what about any other books with security/hacking/linux/programing
[09:27] <fbc> PurpZeY:  BTW, I switched network cards and not my network cards are eth2 and3 instead of 0 and 1 do you know how I can like refresh the network setting to default or something?
[09:27] <etherclear> paul_it: you need proprietary codecs for that
[09:27] <Gurxor> jrib .  I have the universe repositories set, all the universe stuff is there apart from the libxine-extra stuff that i need
[09:27] <pike_> paul_it: its not stricly legal for ubuntu to include em but its a simple thing to add the codecs
[09:27] <jrib> Gurxor: you need multiverse
[09:27] <Gurxor> i have that
[09:27] <Gurxor> all of them
[09:27] <Gurxor> i have every repository set
[09:27] <Ashfire908> is the server installer any different than alternate installer?
[09:27] <chamunks> pike_, ok i found it in the man pages but its not exactly in the conf file itself so should i add the line?
[09:27] <jrib> Gurxor: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[09:27] <paul_it> pike_ so Ubuntu, as Debian, comes with no proprietary software
[09:27] <p1ls> anyone wants to buy linux ubuntu bible, not used . great condition
[09:27] <gerhard> hi i need to create a symlink to /media/disk into my /var/www apache dir. how do i do so? sudo ls and then?
[09:28] <jrib> gerhard: ln -s TARGET NAME
[09:28] <aaanone> I'm not really clear, what is the difference between a metacity theme and a gtk2 theme?
[09:28] <shiryu> stefg but what i do in the window, i change some things but instead it gets better it change some things that was good what settings you recomend to change
[09:28] <gerhard> jrib, sudo ls -s /var/www /media/disk ?
[09:28] <Ashfire908> is the server installer any different than alternate installer?
[09:28] <pike_> Ashfire908: typing server at alternate installer boot will give you same as server installer. its all same os. mostly you get a diff kernel and no graphical environment in server. its a stipped desktop install
[09:28] <paul_it> Has anyone run Beryl in the live version? I've got an NVIDIA card.
[09:28] <jrib> aaanone: metacity theme is for the window decroations and gtk is for the buttons and other controls
[09:28] <bruenig> p1ls, why would you buy a book if you have an internet connection
[09:28] <stefg> shiryu: beryl support is in #ubuntu-effects or #beryl
[09:28] <pike_> chamunks: yeah just add the line and sudo /etc/init.d/ssh restart
[09:29] <p1ls> bad eye vision ;] 
[09:29] <Ashfire908> then this doesn't help: http://users.piuha.net/martti/comp/ubuntu/raid.html#1
[09:29] <jrib> gerhard: "ln", not "ls" and yes, if you want /media/disk to point to whatever is in /var/www
[09:29] <shiryu> #beryl
[09:29] <aaanone> jrib: ah, so ifyou are using beryl a metacity theme makes no difference
[09:29] <jrib> aaanone: right
[09:29] <shiryu> #beryl
[09:29] <gerhard> jrib, i want /media/disk to be shared via apache
[09:30] <chamunks> pike_, how do i ensure im running version 2 of ssh?
[09:30] <fbc> stefg: I don't have the same network cards I started out with. do you know how to get my eth2 and 3 back to 0 and 1?
[09:30] <jrib> gerhard: ln -s /media/disk /var/www/somewhere_in_here
[09:30] <pike_> paul_it: yeah ubuntu isnt quite as fanatical but same basic dogma on truly free issues
[09:30] <gerhard> jrib, thank you i will try that
[09:30] <fbc> stefg: is there like a linux equivalent to a registry or somethign?
[09:30] <Frosh> How come on livecd i was able to run "sudo apt-get install ndiswrapper-common ndiswrapper-utils-1.9", and when I install ubuntu, it didn't work
[09:30] <Frosh> something wrong with my installlation?
[09:31] <albertmk> Can anyone tell me how to watch to Youtube videos? I am using a 64 bits Ubuntu....
[09:31] <jrib> Frosh: explain "didn't work"
[09:31] <stefg> fbc: oooohhhh.... that's a long time i needed that last. and , no, there is no registry, there#s an /etc - dir
[09:31] <jose> #ubuntu-es-es
[09:31] <Frosh> I got couldn't find package ndiswrapper-common
[09:31] <pike_> Frosh: the livecd might have the repos enabled by default. /msg ubotu multiverse for more info
[09:31] <jrib> albertmk: http://www.janvitus.netsons.org/2007/01/15/nspluginwrapper-adobe-flash-player/ is the easiest way imo, but also see the wiki:

[09:32] <fbc> stefg: that is where I'm going to find the file that I need to modify in order to get my netwrok cards back to eth0 and 1 right?
[09:33] <jrib> gerhard: you can use letters in chmod, it's easy.  Let me know if it isn't clear after reading:

[09:33] <askand> I get whitescreen after I ctrl+alt+backspace and login again..why?
[09:33] <stefg> fbc: Imho that procedure changed with the introduction of upstart. But there should be something in the forums (pretty common annoyance)
[09:33] <Ranpha1> wols_ i really do not understand mail, how can i send a mail to a gmail account?

[09:43] <PurpZeY> DevoutFollowerOf: I *believe* the kernels will load the desktop...pretty sure
[09:43] <DevoutFollowerOf> they don't
[09:43] <pike_> aaanone: you could copy .gconf .gconf-bak though im not sure with gnome if that is right config dir
[09:43] <DevoutFollowerOf> Nothing is loading.
[09:43] <wols_> cause  proper unix system has a mail processing facility
[09:43] <liquiddoom> Orfeous: Okay. Open up a console and type "sudo aptitude install restricted-manager"
[09:43] <DevoutFollowerOf> my Windows XP won't boot, and the Ubuntu won't boot
[09:43] <liquiddoom> Orfeous: After that, type "gksudo restricted-manager"
[09:43] <tweakism> desktop systems should not have an MTA.  ssmtp is sufficient.
[09:43] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: telling us the exact error messages of ubuntu is not optional
[09:43] <aaanone> jrib: you definitely got me on the right track, thanks
[09:44] <aaanone> pike_: you as well
[09:44] <wols_> tweakism: ssmtp is an mta. a simple one but an mta
[09:44] <donkeet> on the wireless note, under add remove programs, wireless assistant isnt in there - anywhere I can get it?
[09:44] <tweakism> you know what I meant.
[09:44] <DevoutFollowerOf> first lets start with XP
[09:44] <Nicolai_> Tweet Tweet
[09:44] <Orfeous> liquiddoom: thank you.. its working
[09:44] <RememberPOL> \callvote kick Nicolai_
[09:44] <wols_> tweakism: sure. but it's an mta. a unis system needs a mta to function correctly (e.g. cron messages and the like)
[09:44] <liquiddoom> Orfeous: Great.
[09:45] <Daylighter> EADG, nice nick!
[09:45] <DevoutFollowerOf> I have XP pro, it detects it as Home edition, w/e... it doesnt boot when i hit enter.. it goes to a blank screen with a blinking white box to input text
[09:45] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: wrong channel we don't do XP support
[09:45] <DevoutFollowerOf> the Ubuntu options take forever
[09:45] <tweakism> wols_: ok.
[09:45] <EADG> Daylighter: Thanks
[09:45] <jtreglos> wols_: ok, as you guessed, its an auth problem during the boot sequence... How could I fix that ?
[09:45] <nox-Hand> Nicolai_: Now, note that in Open Source channels, you _ask_ _nicely_ and dont chirp too much.
[09:45] <Nicolai_> nox-hand ?
[09:45] <nox-Hand> Nicolai_: So, we do this...:
[09:45] <Nicolai_> nox-Hand sorry :D
[09:45] <DevoutFollowerOf> when i select it goes to the ubuntu load screen.... after 10 minutes it goes to a black screen with white text and goes through all this bull, then it displays errors
[09:45] <DevoutFollowerOf> like an I/O error
[09:45] <Daylighter> EADG, if I were to nickname myself after an instrument, I'd either be GCEA, ADFB, or DGBE - can you guess which one I play?
[09:46] <wols_> jtreglos: use the proper auth options I'd say. probably your user/pass file is wrong somehow
[09:46] <askand> : I get whitescreen after I ctrl+alt+backspace and login again..why?
[09:46] <nox-Hand> My friend Nicolai_ here is on Ubuntu (duh) and cannot get GLX on his PC (openGL so he can play tremulous). He is on a Radeon9200SE card and needs help :-) Anyone care to help out?
[09:46] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: exact error messages are NOT optional

[09:46] <DevoutFollowerOf> okay, what i want to know is how to remove the boot loader
[09:46] <jtreglos> wols_: no I mean that at boot time, the user is not the root user, so the mount smbfs doesn't work
[09:46] <EADG> Daylighter: ahh, standup bass?
[09:47] <Daylighter> ukulele, actually lol
[09:47] <StefanBE> stefg: it is there indeed and seems to offer quite some options, but when i click the tv (under xserver display config) and then click configure, i can only select twinview or disabled, seperate x screen is grayed out but i think that's what i need. when i select twinview, this : Failed to associate display device 'TV-0' with X screen 0.  TwinView cannot be enabled with this combination of display devices. comes up. What should i do /look
[09:47] <IowaDave> DevoutFollowerOf: those error messages are trying to tell what is wrong. what's the first error message (from ubuntu) say?
[09:47] <wols_> jtreglos: init better run with root priviledges or something is eeriously wrong there
[09:47] <DevoutFollowerOf> well, first i have to way for the amazingly long load time
[09:47] <w4ett> nox-Hand,  the 9200SE is plagued with ati driver issues....
[09:47] <DevoutFollowerOf> wait*
[09:47] <DevoutFollowerOf> ok
[09:47] <stefg> StefanBE: hmmm... not sure. see if !dualhead has a hint
[09:47] <nox-Hand> w4ett: so I am likely to find a 9200SE specific howto perhaps?
[09:47] <tweakism> My friend has a weird issue w/ natsemi.o and possibly ACPI, his symptoms are pretty much *identical* to this thread, yet the poster there solved it by going to 7.04, and he installed 7.04 from cd and is running kernel 2.6.20-15-generic which should have this fixed.  Not that I've totally tracked it down.  Thread:  http://ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-410412.html      An interesting pic of his system, note how ipv4 addrs don't take on the ...
[09:48] <wols_> w4ett: ati doesn't support the 9200SE anymore. the issue is "won't work at all with fglrx"

[09:48] <w4ett> nox-Hand,  what problems specifically----low FPS  issues?
[09:48] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: check your harddisk if it's still working. either your harddisk is broken or broken IDE cable or such
[09:48] <LjL> !paste > DevoutFollowerOf    (DevoutFollowerOf, see the private message from Ubotu) | or use the pastebin, which is made for that
[09:48] <StefanBE> stefg: and ubotu : thanks, i'll chek that
[09:48] <nox-Hand> w4ett: No openGL whatsoever
[09:48] <tweakism> er, this is the pic:  http://img520.imageshack.us/img520/1883/dsc02758largexn1.jpg
[09:49] <DevoutFollowerOf> my hardware is fine
[09:49] <DevoutFollowerOf> thank you
[09:49] <w4ett> nox-Hand, what driver is he using ?
[09:49] <DevoutFollowerOf> my hardware didnt just mess up because i installed ubuntu
[09:49] <g8tr> Is there a good RAR extracting program anyone can recommend?
[09:49] <wols_> nox-Hand: you need the "ati" drivre (not fglrx)
[09:49] <LjL> !rar > g8tr    (g8tr, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:49] <tweakism> sudo apt-get install unrar OR unrar-free
[09:49] <darwin81> wols_ : I already have Java installed
[09:49] <nox-Hand> w4ett: No idea, he just went offline o_o
[09:49] <wols_> darwin81: which java
[09:50] <nox-Hand> w4ett: Was going to restart X, will ask when he is back

[09:50] <DevoutFollowerOf> is there a solution at all?
[09:50] <w4ett> nox-Hand, he needs to use the opens source ATI driver
[09:50] <darwin81> wols_ : I have the package sun-java6-jre installed
[09:50] <DevoutFollowerOf> jesus
[09:50] <wols_> darwin81: good. then tell us the azureus error(s)
[09:51] <DevoutFollowerOf> another error is /bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
[09:51] <PurpZeY> DevoutFollowerOf: You have been vague describing your problem and rude to the best trouble-shooter currently in the channel...There probably is a solution but you have to work with people.
[09:51] <hector__> there is an easy way to setup a LAMP server in the desktop version of Ubuntu
[09:51] <darwin81> wols_ : Where's that site where I can post long things?

[09:51] <wols_> !lamp | hector
[09:51] <SatanGolga> Here is a little more "detailed" view on my problem: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23944/
[09:51] <ubotu> hector: 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+)
[09:51] <DevoutFollowerOf> I didn't say it has problems with Windows
[09:51] <DevoutFollowerOf> Windows was booting fine
[09:51] <DevoutFollowerOf> until I installed Ubuntu
[09:52] <kootaphor> I have a 300g external usb drive that lately has spontaneously been going "read-only" (and refusing to unmount nicely)  after just about any random activity on startup. It's supposedly only 90% full. Any ideas?
[09:52] <duaneb> why does an 'echo "6 /  5" | bc' return 1?
[09:52] <w4ett> nox-Hand,  see the ati Xorg bug @ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/116471
[09:52] <PurpZeY> DevoutFollowerOf: How did you setup the partition?
[09:52] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: use the windows CD, boot to recovery console and run fixboot and fixmbr. then your windows will work again
[09:52] <wols_> after that:

[09:52] <zasso> just a question
[09:52] <wols_> lorenz: locate
[09:52] <DevoutFollowerOf> The partition is set up this way...
[09:52] <lorenz> thanks

[09:53] <zasso> does anybody transfer video to the ipod by linux?
[09:53] <tweakism> duaneb: try 6.0 / 5.0
[09:53] <DevoutFollowerOf> The linux partition is mounted at  "/"
[09:53] <duaneb> tweakism: that doesn't work either :/
[09:53] <nox-Hand> w4ett: thanks :)
[09:53] <PurpZeY> DevoutFollowerOf: I think what wols_ said is probably best bet.
[09:53] <IowaDave> DevoutFollowerOf: i'd second thyat
[09:53] <majd_> how do i move the contents of the current directory into a directory in the current directory?
[09:53] <duaneb> believe me, I already tried that

[09:53] <DevoutFollowerOf> so what after?
[09:53] <DevoutFollowerOf> any solution to get my boot loader working?

[09:54] <wols_> darwin81: and pray
[09:54] <PurpZeY> DevoutFollowerOf: Yes. Use the windows recovery disk to recovery windows. Then reinstall grub
[09:54] <zasso> nobody can help me?
[09:54] <SatanGolga> stefg: i did an apt-get upgrade and an update, then it started with the segfaults :(

[09:54] <LjL> !enter | DevoutFollowerOf

[09:54] <DevoutFollowerOf> is this going to delete my files?
[09:54] <wols_> zasso: ask a real question then someone might
[09:54] <w4ett> nox-Hand,  also try using (Option "BusType" "PCI") in xorg.conf
[09:54] <duaneb> mind you an 'echo "6.5 / 5.5" | bc' equals 1 as well
[09:54] <PurpZeY> DevoutFollowerOf: no
[09:54] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: no
[09:54] <lloyd> how is it possible that a file is on"desktop" but not in dir (a file to install!)=
[09:54] <stefg> SatanGolga: could be a corupt filesystem then, i'd suggest a fsck first to rule that out
[09:54] <DevoutFollowerOf> and how do i remove ubuntu after i fix mbr? :P

[09:54] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: if you don't know what a XP recovery console is, google for it
[09:55] <DevoutFollowerOf> i know what it is
[09:55] <zasso> wols_: when i transer my videos to the ipod....there will be no sound
[09:55] <DevoutFollowerOf> you are not answering my question
[09:55] <w4ett> nox-Hand,  agp is broken for that card RV280 based ati
[09:55] <DevoutFollowerOf> I said, how do I remove Ubuntu after?
[09:55] <zasso> and i don't understand why
[09:55] <nox-Hand> w4ett: oh dear :|
[09:55] <pike_> ls | grep -v directorytomoveto | xargs -i mv {} directorytomoveto/   might work
[09:55] <fbc> stefg: FYI, I did a little more digging and I found that what I was lloking for was actually in the FSTAB file...
[09:55] <PurpZeY> DevoutFollowerOf: You don't have to remove ubuntu after that. You can just reinstall the ubuntu bootmanager. You should be good.
[09:55] <SatanGolga> stefg: ok, thanks
[09:55] <wols_> zasso: sounds like an audio codec the ipod doesn't understand
[09:55] <darwin81> wols_ : If it means anything when I delete the configuration file in my home folder it starts fine again
[09:55] <maynards-girl> where do I get the libdvdread3 from?
[09:55] <superbear> ok i got the slapd init script but my router tells me that my start-stop-daemon is missing
[09:55] <w4ett> nox-Hand,  but we're working on it :)
[09:55] <wols_> darwin81: botched config file then
[09:55] <DevoutFollowerOf> how do i reinstall the boot manager, if i can't get into Ubuntu? :P
[09:55] <zasso> wols_: sorry???
[09:55] <wols_> but a config file shouldn't kill the VM
[09:56] <superbear> is this a script or a bin file? because i need bin files for mipsel
[09:56] <wols_> zasso: sounds like an audio codec the ipod doesn't understand
[09:56] <stefg> !grub | DevoutFollowerOf

[09:56] <duaneb> ahah

[09:57] <wols_> godtvisk1n: open a termin, run "mplayer"
[09:57] <tweakism> duaneb: well done.
[09:57] <zasso> wols_: ok....i used ffmpeg to change from file.flv to file.mov....on my oc ii can listen the video sound but not on the ipod
[09:57] <superbear> i don't: i used only the init.d script from the ubuntu package because mine is missing on the router
[09:57] <pike_> godtvisk1n: do a sudo locate -u; locate mplayer | grep bin   maybe your path is just messed up
[09:57] <superbear> wols_:I'm running openwrt

[09:59] <DevoutFollowerOf> everyone said lilo sucks, use grub
[10:00] <fbc> stefg: sorry I meant iftab
[10:00] <zasso> wols_: i don't understand what i have to do
[10:00] <IowaDave> DevoutFollowerOf:  as wols_ said earlier, this will restore your system to windows-only: "use the windows CD, boot to recovery console and run fixboot and fixmbr. then your windows will work again"  you won't see ubuntu on it after that.
[10:00] <askand>  I get whitescreen after I ctrl+alt+backspace and login again..why? :(
[10:00] <wols_> zasso: use a different audio codec for your videos perhaps?
[10:00] <DevoutFollowerOf> OMG!
[10:00] <jbu311> hey everyone...i want to download ubuntu but dont know whether or not i should get the amd64 version or not...i DO have an amd64 but is the release for the amd64 compatible or should i play it safe and just go with the standard architecture version?
[10:00] <DevoutFollowerOf> That is wonderful
[10:00] <stefg> SatanGolga: so the frequent reason for apt segfaulting is a missing, corrupt or not matching glibc. But i don't know what could have happened
[10:01] <wols_> jbu311: how much RAM do you have?
[10:01] <zasso> wols_: which one? i can only use ffmpeg....can you tell me another?
[10:01] <pike_> askand: alt-ctrl-f2 login and do 'sudo adduser' then alt-f7 to get back to gui and see if that user has same problem
[10:01] <jbu311> 1.5GB
[10:01] <jakub__> wols_?czemu si od razu denerwujesz?

[10:02] <jbu311> wols_: k, thanks
[10:02] <HymnToLife> cr3_, read the manual of your monitor ?
[10:02] <wols_> cr3_: none. you cannot change refresh rate on LCDs
[10:02] <LjL> DevoutFollowerOf: you've been answered, seveal times, no i suggest you try what has been suggested and stop making irrelevant comments.

[10:03] <winternacht> why do bad things happen to good people?
[10:03] <cr3_> wols_, why? I've heard that higher refresh it's better for your eyes xD
[10:03] <stefg> SatanGolga: al in all from the viewpoint of time economy i'd copy the important files off the disk and reinstall. corrupt apt is ugly, as i said earlier
[10:03] <winternacht> cr3_ : it is.
[10:03] <wols_> cr3_: cause a LCD is no CRT
[10:03] <pike_> askand: id alt-ctrl-f2 and run sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg  since it seems to be an x thing not a user config.  before that are you using beryl or anything?
[10:03] <wols_> winternacht: no it is not. he's using a LCD
[10:03] <winternacht> oh, lcd? Yeah that doesnt matter I agree with wols
[10:03] <fbc> Funny, I heard fanfare when ljl was promoted to operator..

[10:04] <wols_> poor you
[10:04] <SatanGolga> stefg: ok, thanks for your views, i'll probably end up reinstalling it
[10:04] <winternacht> Internet friends I have a question! And since I love you and you love me well I hope for advice!
[10:04] <LjL> fbc: ...?
[10:04] <fbc> ljl yes?

[10:04] <Devsense> Hello, I'm having a few issues with xvid video playback. On Edgy it worked perfectly, but now on Fiesty I have a lot of issues. All of the codecs are fully installed (incl. gstreamer plugins, xine libs, w32codecs, etc.).. but all the players crash (kaffeine, totem, vlc, xine-ui, kmplayer). Very stange error, any ideas?
[10:04] <wols_> which reacts to +o
[10:04] <LjL> oh

[10:05] <wols_> winternacht: do you know which init script it barks on?
[10:05] <stefg> Devsense: used automatix?
[10:06] <Devsense> No, manual installs.
[10:06] <Devsense> (through apt, not manual compile)
[10:06] <fbc> wols_:  so I assume you are like an IRC purist or something? hehe
[10:06] <Daylighter> sunday is a big support day, I'm finding out
[10:06] <pike_> askand: ah. hmm i had a similar problem that was solved by upgrading version of beryl but that might be a pain on ubuntu. umm are you using nvidia or ati. you might upgrade graphics driver that'd be first thing id try
[10:06] <MenZa> Where would I direct questions regarding wiki formatting?
[10:06] <wols_> fbc: I just like to shout at my computer and prefer if it doesn't talk back
[10:06] <askand> pike_: hrm im using intel drivers..
[10:06] <stefg> Devsense: i'd take a close look ot teh xorg.conf
[10:06] <phretor> hi there
[10:07] <winternacht> Am I supposed to be getting a command prompt when I install 7.04 server?
[10:07] <zybrid> hey, new install 7.04, i cant change resolution over 60hz, why? ati
[10:07] <Devsense> stefg: what at? I wouldn't know where to begin!
[10:07] <winternacht> Or do I have to SSH into it
[10:07] <phretor> how about *official* Pidgin on Feisty?
[10:07] <wols_> winternacht: yes

[10:07] <phretor> MenZa: uh?
[10:07] <pike_> askand: i915 setup?
[10:07] <winternacht> damnit. wols_, Its freezing on loading the boot config files
[10:07] <MenZa> phretor: There is no official Feisty deb for Pidgin
[10:07] <MenZa> phretor: You'll need to grab it from http://getdeb.net
[10:07] <askand> pike_: yep
[10:07] <wols_> winternacht: exact error messages or last thing you see is not an otional thing to tell us
[10:07] <MenZa> (It's on a !wfm basis, so stuff may or may not break.)
[10:08] <stefg> Devsense: past /etc/X11/xorg.conf to the !pastebin as found in /topic
[10:08] <pike_> askand: /join #ubuntu-effects there are a few of us in there sorry im outta ideas other than a google search like site:ubuntuforums.org white screen compiz  or something
[10:08] <winternacht> Runnin local boot scripts (/etc/rc.local)   [ OK ]    <--- does not go past
[10:08] <askand> pike_:  ok thanks for trying to help :)
[10:09] <phretor> MenZa: don't they have a deb source?
[10:09] <wols_> ok. rc.local is the last in /etc/rc2.d right? anything with the same SXX number?
[10:09] <winternacht> Uhm... nevermind.... it booted....
[10:09] <winternacht> odd.
[10:09] <MenZa> phretor: In the repositories? No.
[10:10] <phretor> MenZa: oki, thanks anyway for the URL :-) I didn't know it

[10:15] <dsjadfsorng> newbie here: how do I enable the universe and multiverse repositories in Feisty Fawn?
[10:15] <wols_> gif89apro: it will do something. at least a "command not found"
[10:16] <dsjadfsorng> I've only found instructions for 6.06 and they differ
[10:16] <wols_> godtvisk1n:  it will do something. at least a "command not found" or a "segmentation fault"
[10:16] <DevoutFollowerOf> okay, I guess I am not making myself clear. I can't fixmbr or fixboot or any of that because I don't have the option to enter recovery console.
[10:16] <Devsense> stefg: that looks about right yeh.. why would this have only started now though? I was using prior versionfs of Ubuntu on this laptop perfectly up until this afternoon
[10:16] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: why not?
[10:16] <wols_> besides: that is OT in ubuntu
[10:16] <atselby> hello, can anyone tell me what "Installed (auto removable)" is in Synaptic? Thank you
[10:16] <DevoutFollowerOf> i run the CD, i get F6 to install a RAID driver etc.. and F2 automated system recovery.
[10:17] <LjL> DevoutFollowerOf: i can't help you with the Windows CD, but from the Ubuntu CD there is a package called "ms-sys" that can be installed and run to restore a Microsoft-compatible bootloader.
[10:17] <winternacht> honk i love you
[10:17] <sodoku> one question for launchpad
[10:17] <randoman> Hi guys, Anyoen have any idea why Direct render would not work after isntalling fglrx, and then still not working after restoring the orginal xorg.conf that did work before?
[10:17] <DevoutFollowerOf> After that it loads the Windows set up.
[10:17] <stefg> Devsense: regressions happen.... so it's obviuosly a bug, happy workaround-hunting
[10:17] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: that is not it. google for "recovery console windows" you will find something. now go away with windows questions
[10:17] <bruno_> i have a problem with my sound card

[10:17] <atselby> soyporti: go to add/remove programs and search codec I do belive.
[10:17] <godtvisk1n> wols_: exactly. command not found
[10:17] <Sonderblade> why isn't python2.5 default in edgy?
[10:17] <DevoutFollowerOf> Excuse me? Windows question. This is a problem because of Ubuntu. I'm here for support with that.
[10:18] <wols_> godtvisk1n: dpkg -l mplayer
[10:18] <sodoku> some parts are marked untranslated but the last suggestion is right, shell i just copy or leave them?
[10:18] <winternacht> YAY i got ssh going on my server honk :3
[10:18] <wols_> Sonderblade: python modules which depend on 2.4
[10:18] <bruno_> PurpZeY: it works only if i boot on windows 2000 before booting on ubuntu
[10:18] <soyporti> atselby:thanks
[10:18] <Sonderblade> wols_: is it default in 2.5?
[10:18] <winternacht> i love you internet
[10:18] <tomex> anyone got a link for the list to Ubuntu list of packages
[10:18] <Jack3> where can i see the networks availble in ubuntu with gnome

[10:18] <deviantintegral> For some reason NetworkManager isn't showing any wifi networks in the dropdown menu but things work fine through manual configuration. I'm using ndiswrapper, any suggestions?
[10:18] <LjL> !packages > tomex    (tomex, see the private message from Ubotu)
[10:19] <atselby> soyporti, if that doesnt work try searching in synaptic for codec
[10:19] <wols_> tomex: packages.ubuntu.com
[10:19] <ompaul> Sonderblade, read this:  Ubuntu releases a new version every 6 months. Each version is supported for 18 months to 5 years. More info at http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/releases & http://wiki.ubuntu.com/TimeBasedReleases
[10:19] <Jack3> where can isee wireless networks in gnome?
[10:19] <PurpZeY> bruno_: Try this...
[10:19] <PurpZeY> !Alsa | bruno_
[10:19] <ubotu> bruno_: 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).

[10:19] <wols_> Jack3: network manager
[10:19] <atselby>  hello, can anyone tell me what "Installed (auto removable)" is in Synaptic? Thank you
[10:19] <Jack3> how do i get to that
[10:20] <Jack3> type that in konsole?
[10:20] <Sonderblade> ompaul: what?
[10:20] <jarrod> i linked to another computer of my network through connect to server and all i see is ini files and Db files
[10:20] <wols_> Jack3: is your wireless driver loaded and working?
[10:20] <tomex> thanks
[10:20] <PurpZeY> atselby: I *believe* this means, that a remove will properly remove the problem.
[10:20] <Jack3> yes
[10:20] <atselby> purpzey: so it would remove the program or lib that is no longer used?
[10:20] <Jack3> wols_: yeh it is
[10:21] <ompaul> Sonderblade, the answer to why your version does not run the latest software is in those two urls with more much more useful information
[10:21] <LjL> PurpZeY, atselby: it means that the package was installed automatically (due to being a dependency of some other package) and can be automatically removed by invoking "apt-get autoremove" when it's no longer needed.
[10:21] <soyporti> anyone knows why the Nvidia driver 9755 doesn't save the screen resolution? how can it be save?
[10:21] <thedrummer> hello
[10:21] <PurpZeY> atselby: I *think*, that is if you went to remove it....I am not sure, I am sure someone else can verify.
[10:21] <jarrod> i linked to another computer of my network through connect to server and all i see is ini files and Db files. why wouldn't see mp3's and avi's?

[10:21] <Corvinis-V> Could there be a specific reason that my computer is @ 100% cpu all the time in ubuntu? It's a new install

[10:22] <atselby> PurpZeY, okay. from looking in the list of packages it appears to me that it's unused libs and apps etc. thanks, ill check around first.
[10:22] <fogwar> wols_: no, im in windows and it says i dont have space
[10:22] <ompaul> !nickspam > lllllll
[10:22] <PurpZeY> atselby: Scroll up, LjL helped you ouy.
[10:22] <PurpZeY> out*
[10:22] <thedrummer> you guys are geniuses. how did you start learning linux?
[10:22] <DevoutFollowerOf> okay
[10:22] <wols_> fogwar: this is ubuntu, not windows
[10:22] <DevoutFollowerOf> HOW do I use Ubuntu CD to fix the Windows boot problem?
[10:22] <wols_> LjL: apt-get with a autoremove? since when?
[10:22] <Corvinis-V> anyone know ?
[10:23] <thedrummer> does anybody think that Linux will Make Microsoft fold ?
[10:23] <fogwar> wols_: yes, but im asking something like..... should i have installed widnows XP THEN ubuntu? or does it not matter'
[10:23] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: more OT
[10:23] <thedrummer> Win Xp First.. is easier
[10:23] <bruno_> PurpZeY: i don't understand
[10:23] <LjL> wols_: since Edgy... "man apt-get". not available in debian i believe.
[10:23] <ompaul> thedrummer, if you want to start today start here: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/
[10:23] <DevoutFollowerOf> HOW do I use Ubuntu CD to fix the Windows boot problem?
[10:23] <wols_> fogwar: apart from the MBR/grub problem: does not matter
[10:23] <PurpZeY> Corvinis-V: This sounds like a problem I've seen before, I think if you catch someones attention you might be able to resolve it.
[10:23] <nomin> DevoutFollowerOf: what windows boot problem?
[10:23] <thedrummer> When you're installing Windows, make an extra partition.. so that you later can install UBUNTU
[10:23] <wols_> LjL: interesting
[10:23] <DevoutFollowerOf> omg
[10:23] <PurpZeY> bruno_: Not trying to be rude or short...What do you understand?
[10:24] <jarrod> okay i cant download anything though apt-get it says error 101 network unreachable
[10:24] <atselby> LjL, thank you.
[10:24] <thedrummer> Otherwise.. Windows Installer is Greedy.. it makes it harder to install linux if you Install windows after.. It will just replace UBUNTU
[10:24] <LjL> DevoutFollowerOf: 1) enable universe 2)  sudo apt-get install ms-sys  3)  man ms-sys 
[10:24] <ompaul> DevoutFollowerOf, you don't you use windows cds to fix windows
[10:24] <winternacht> what commands do you use to view all of your hard drives?
[10:24] <PurpZeY> bruno_: I'm sorry, i meant what don't*** you understand.
[10:24] <DevoutFollowerOf> LjL, that didn't help at all
[10:24] <Tehkain> Anyone know why a ubuntus net would stop functioning after about 15GBs of download?
[10:24] <DevoutFollowerOf> That made no sense to me.. someone who never used Linux EVER
[10:24] <jarrod> okay i cant download anything though apt-get it says error 101 network unreachable...
[10:24] <nomin> DevoutFollowerOf: grub recognizes the windows partition just fine for me.
[10:25] <ompaul> DevoutFollowerOf, at this stage you are beginning to read like a troll
[10:25] <winternacht> it does for me too
[10:25] <wols_> jarrod: your ubuntu doesn't have a internet connection it seems. "ping google.com"
[10:25] <LjL> ompaul: beginning?
[10:25] <ompaul> LjL, I was out for a bit
[10:25] <PurpZeY> DevoutFollowerOf: Have you fixed your windows partition?
[10:25] <winternacht> what command do I use to see all hard drives connected via IDE?
[10:25] <Corvinis-V> does ubuntu work with superkaramba? since my cpu stays at 100% all the time and it's not really doing anything ....
[10:25] <DevoutFollowerOf> Thats you, not me. I want to make Windows boot and get rid of Grub, so how can I do that with Ubuntu CD?
[10:25] <thedrummer> well, if you have Linux installed.. you can Edit grub in an easy fashion through the System menu within GNOME
[10:25] <wols_> ompaul: imho he is simply ignorant and not the brightest lightbulb
[10:25] <jarrod> wols I'm on ubuntu right now and firefox works fine
[10:25] <thedrummer> rather than tinkering with the confusing text file
[10:25] <bruno_> PurpZey: what does !Alsa | bruno_ means?
[10:25] <Tehkain> Use your windows cd and fixboot and fixmbr from the system recovery console
[10:25] <LjL> !repos > DevoutFollowerOf    (DevoutFollowerOf, see the private message from Ubotu) | follow the instructions here to enable the Universe component
[10:26] <wols_> jarrod: told you to do something
[10:26] <PurpZeY> DevoutFollowerOf: Recover windows using the WINDOWS cd & fixboot.
[10:26] <LjL> DevoutFollowerOf: after you have it enabled, type the exact commands i've given you in a terminal
[10:26] <LjL> !cli > DevoutFollowerOf    (DevoutFollowerOf, see the private message from Ubotu) | this is how you start a terminal
[10:26] <nomin> DevoutFollowerOf:  I don't know how to get rid of grub with ubuntu, but the mandriva install cd has a "restore windows bootloader" option that does that.
[10:26] <PurpZeY> bruno_: I will help you via msg...is your nick registered?
[10:26] <nomin> DevoutFollowerOf: mandriva is a separate distro, btw.
[10:26] <winternacht> Cmon guys this is a simple question can anyone answer it please?
[10:26] <DevoutFollowerOf> what is the mandriva install?
[10:26] <winternacht> what command lets you view your hard drives that need to be formatted in linux?
[10:26] <wols_> thedrummer: run "top". see which process uses all your cpu
[10:27] <jarrod> wols ping worked fine. 65 - 67ms
[10:27] <thedrummer> i know.
[10:27] <LjL> winternacht: error, question doesn't make sense
[10:27] <Corvinis-V> Could there be a specific reason that my computer is @ 100% cpu all the time in ubuntu? It's a new install
[10:27] <bruno_> PurpZeY: no
[10:27] <ompaul> DevoutFollowerOf, you can't, you need your windows CD to fdisk /mbr and then maybe you will be happy, you can't do it with the Ubuntu CD
[10:27] <thedrummer> I didn't ask that question, but thanks :-D
[10:27] <wols_> jarrod: then try another ubuntu repo perhaps
[10:27] <Hadron`> winternacht: gparted
[10:27] <Hadron`> winternacht: will show you what is formatted and what is not.
[10:27] <bsd_> Corvinis-V run top and see what is eating the cpu ...?
[10:27] <DevoutFollowerOf> my Windows CD does not display an option to enter the recovery console. It is bootleg
[10:27] <nickyd> anyone successfully set up watchguard firebox ssl vpn for ubuntu?
[10:27] <Wescott> Anyone know where I can find older versions of Serialmonkey's RT73 driver? the CVS doesnt' seem to work and I erased my old tar file for the working driver..
[10:27] <winternacht> What about simply seeing any physical disk
[10:27] <thedrummer> top will eat the CPU in the first place .. ; )
[10:27] <LjL> DevoutFollowerOf: that's your problem, not ours. next time buy it
[10:28] <ompaul> DevoutFollowerOf, well go buy one from Microsoft then
[10:28] <DevoutFollowerOf> no, its not my problem
[10:28] <mildner> does anybody know where to report bugs?
[10:28] <LjL> oh yes, it quite is
[10:28] <DevoutFollowerOf> because Ubuntu caused this issue
[10:28] <Hadron`> winternacht: just run gparted
[10:28] <winternacht> ok
[10:28] <mildner> bugs in ubuntu
[10:28] <Tehkain> winternact, fsudo fdisk -l
[10:28] <wols_> DevoutFollowerOf: it's nice to know you're a criminal, but I have to disappoint you: even that CD can do what we told you to do
[10:28] <maynards-girl> i added repositories and packages and I still can't play DVDs.  what else do I need to do?
[10:28] <LjL> DevoutFollowerOf: you should have had a backup.
[10:28] <winternacht> thanks Tehkain
 what do you mean by run top? I'm in system monitor and everything besides system monitor is at 0 cpu... sys monitor only uses a little....
[10:28] <Tehkain> winternact, sudo fdisk -l rather
[10:29] <winternacht> I know :) thanks again
[10:29] <wols_> mildner: say it ain't so!
[10:29] <jshriver> Anyone know how to setup php with apache under Ubuntu?
[10:29] <Fawaz> i have installed dhcp server iptables and bind .. to make my box a router and do natting? am i missing anything?
[10:29] <wols_> !lamp | jshriver
[10:29] <ubotu> jshriver: 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+)
[10:29] <Hadron`> jshriver: install php .... searhc for in synaptic.
 every process besides sysmon is sleeping
[10:29] <jshriver> I did
[10:29] <jshriver> tried php4 and php5
[10:30] <wols_> Fawaz: yes. install ipmasq and dnsmasq. you need to edit the /etc/dnsmasq.conf for dhcp
[10:30] <jshriver> and restarted apache still not working
[10:30] <winternacht> Should I do JFS or Ext3 as a music/video repository>
[10:30] <Corvinis-V> wols_ do you know what might cause 100% cpu if all processes besides sysmon are sleeping ?
[10:30] <jshriver> winternacht, ext3
[10:30] <winternacht> is there any reason why ext3 over jfs?
[10:31] <Hadron`> jshriver: lipapache2-mod-php5
[10:31] <wols_> Corvinis-V: display error or a rootkit
[10:31] <wols_> jshriver: dpkg -l |grep php
[10:31] <Fawaz> wols_: s ok let me try installing that then
[10:31] <b0lland> Hi #ubuntu, I made the bad mistake of letting gnome do auto-update of my packages, it updated apache2 and wanted to rewrite my config files, I thought wtf is up with that and allowed it to overwrite a few of the ones I haven't changed. But after that apache wouldn't start, it complained about _everything_ in my (old) apache2.conf. This pissed me off bigtime and finally I thought hey I'll backup my config and uninstall and reinstall apa
[10:31] <dinochopins> hi everyone

[10:36] <PurpZeY> !alsa
[10:36] <ubotu> If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer).

[10:39] <wols_> Elfboy: vsftdp

[10:39] <maynards-girl> wols_: i'm not getting any errors
[10:40] <bruno_> PurpZeY: but sound working at the moment because i booted on windows 2000 before
[10:40] <ico2> does anyone know of an apt repository which provides more up-to-date kernels than the main ubuntu one? compiling my own kernel every time i needed a new version became very tiresome in suse, i would rather avoid it in ubuntu
[10:40] <wols_> maynards-girl: then you are not looking hard enough
[10:40] <wols_> ico2: the question is, why would you need a new one?
[10:40] <maynards-girl> wols_: when I use mplayer or movie player it just hangs and I get an option to "wait" or "force quit"
[10:40] <PurpZeY> bruno_: I don't understand...Why should what you booted into before, effect this now?
[10:40] <ico2> wols_, looking for one with a newer version of kvm
[10:41] <wols_> maynards-girl: run it from a terminal then
[10:41] <Elfboy> does anyone know anything about kvirc
[10:41] <niriven> I think thers a package in gentoo for acpi scripts that will handle certain acpi events, anyone know what this package is?

[10:42] <ubotu> The linux terminal or command-line interface is very powerful. Open a terminal via Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal (Gnome) or K-menu -> System -> Konsole (KDE).  Guide: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal

[10:43] <ikonia> winternacht: why do you want jfs
[10:43] <Gnea> svetelis: what graphics card?
[10:43] <wols_> winternacht: create a partition with it and add it to fstab
[10:43] <IowaDave> cherva: you'll probably need to sudo chown to actually use chown on a file belonging to root.
[10:43] <Fawaz> wols_: so i won't ave dns server?
[10:43] <winternacht> because its journaled and david ames said i should try
[10:43] <bruno_> PurpZeY: no, the sound on ubuntu works only if i boot into windows before
[10:43] <svetelis> wols_: ATI X1660
[10:43] <ikonia> winternacht: ext3 is journaled

[10:43] <fbarcenas> Does the search feature in gnome search in documents too?
[10:43] <wols_> winternacht: mkfs.jfs or such
[10:44] <ikonia> winternacht: ext3 will be fine
[10:44] <Fawaz> wols_ : :) ok thanks you i'll read more about it
[10:44] <Fawaz> wols_: thanks again

[10:44] <winternacht> i looked on wikipedia
[10:44] <winternacht> ;_;
[10:44] <ikonia> winternacht: so why do you want to use jfs ?
[10:45] <kingfoot> hi
[10:45] <winternacht> Faster on all sizes
[10:45] <Scunizi> winternacht, how 'bout using parted or gparted.  then you can choose something like ReiserFS
[10:45] <wols_> winternacht: it's not really better or worse than ext3
[10:45] <ikonia> winternacht: no its not
[10:45] <larson9999> mp3 players are pretty cheap now.
[10:45] <larson9999> well the older ones :)
[10:45] <winternacht> fuck reiser he killed his wife
[10:45] <winternacht> and it was made by one person
[10:45] <ikonia> winternacht: no need for bad language
[10:45] <winternacht> sorry
[10:45] <wols_> winternacht: innocent by proven guilty or such
[10:45] <larson9999> no, that was an M$ setup.
[10:45] <kingfoot> i have a couple questions about wubi, can anyone help?
[10:45] <PurpZeY> bruno_: Ok, so, if I understand you, you have sound now?
[10:45] <fbarcenas> winternacht, you don't know that for sure.
[10:45] <yigit>  /server irc.localhost
[10:45] <ikonia> winternacht: and jfs is nothing like resier so don't make silly comments
[10:45] <winternacht> Ok I wont
[10:45] <yigit>  /server ocalhost
[10:45] <wols_> !ask | kingfoot
[10:45] <ubotu> kingfoot: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:46] <larson9999> ntfs ad: we don't kill people!
[10:46] <Scunizi> winternacht, still.. it works well on sata drives.. Ext3 tends to go weird when doing a file sys check
[10:46] <kingfoot> first: does wubi work with vista yet? i cant navegate the site very well...
[10:46] <winternacht> All the drives are IDE
[10:46] <audifahrer> hello
[10:46] <ikonia> Scunizi: no it doesn't ext3 does not go strange
[10:46] <winternacht> and will be used as long term media storage
[10:46] <wols_> winternacht: then definitely ext3
[10:46] <winternacht> and I uh cough have this SCSI drive array
[10:47] <winternacht>  not sure what to do with it
[10:47] <ikonia> winternacht: then why did you just say the drives are ide
[10:47] <larson9999> my wife switched to ubuntu.  can't believe it.
[10:47] <winternacht> I dont know! gosh
[10:47] <ikonia> winternacht: if you run it through scsi array how are the drives ide ?
[10:47] <fbarcenas> is there any search tool that I can use that will search IN documents too for a keyword?
[10:47] <audifahrer> is there something similar to /etc/env.d/* from Gentoo to set environment variables for the system in Ubuntu?
[10:47] <Scunizi> ikonia, did on my machine.. reformatted and reinstalled several times and always seemed to happen.  Probably just some quirk on my system.
[10:47] <wols_> fbarcenas: grep
[10:47] <winternacht> Promise ultratrak RM8000
[10:47] <kingfoot> and can i use any .iso with wubi? such as ubuntu ultimate edition?

[10:47] <winternacht> ikonia google that name
[10:47] <PurpZeY> wols_: Beagled might be a tool for that too, no?

[10:49] <zeeeee> wols_, yes, i said it was a symlink

[10:49] <winternacht> ikonia why not ;_;
[10:50] <wols_> b0lland: I told you already
[10:50] <ikonia> winternacht: well it appears to use a scsi interface, with a psuedo ata chipset on board the card
[10:50] <zeeeee> wols_, do you mean apt-file that file?

[10:50] <b0lland> wols_ no, purge then reinstall didn't do the job. But I have been able to recreate the directory structure in /etc/apache2 now, but no default apache2.conf. I don't mean to sound ungrateful tho
[10:51] <zeeeee> wols_, then i don't know how you use dpkg that way, because:
[10:51] <zeeeee> dpkg -L /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 shows

[10:51] <PurpZeY> wols_: This might seem dumb or whatever, but you have been amazing helping people today...I'm sure they've been thankful, but wow, you are really "banging things out"...So, even though you didn't help me, thanks from the community...

[10:52] <PurpZeY> bruno_: I don't disagree that it's strange. But what I am saying is, how can you FIX the problem, if the problem doesn't exist?
[10:52] <Corvinis-V> wols_ I don't have internet connection on the linuxserver.... it has a dhcp lease but firefox is only giving me timeouts.... after i fix the internet connection I can get on irc with it and paste you the readout

[10:52] <wols_> zeeeee: very strange then
[10:52] <simon__> usin feisty
[10:52] <zeeeee> replace libgtk with libmyownlib
[10:53] <zeeeee> shouldn't make a difference
[10:53] <wols_> zeeeee: just making sure it's a legitimate ubuntu file which means it should work
[10:53] <bruno_> PurpZeY: via 8237
[10:53] <zeeeee> well, the eclipse i'm using is not a 'legitimate ubuntu file' - i got it directly from eclipse.org
[10:53] <bleepbloop> Does anyone have experience with the i810 or intel drivers? From my understanding i810 is now deprecated can anyone verify this for ubuntu fiesty?
[10:54] <wols_> i810 is still the driver for i8xx videocards. i9xx have a different one
[10:54] <b0lland> can anyone tell me how to get a hold of the default apache2.conf for the installed version of apache2? I'm thinking like dpkg-reconfigure or something, but that doesn't seem to be it in this case
[10:54] <LjL> zeeeee: that would probably explain it... why?
[10:55] <phretor> hi there
[10:55] <LjL> b0lland: --purge the package and reinstall it is an option.
[10:55] <bleepbloop> wols_: I have a 915GM, do you know which driver I should be using?
[10:55] <zeeeee> LjL, that explains what? it's not explaining to me why a shared lib isn't being resolved...
[10:55] <linubold> hi <phretor>
[10:55] <b0lland> LjL: you mean apt-get remove --purge apache2 && apt-get install apache2 ?
[10:55] <Gnea> winternacht: you need to do  your research properly before spouting off what complex systems are. that promise uses IDE drives, there's nothing SCSI about it, except maybe that the controller is running some sort of embedded linux in order to mask the IDE drives as sCSI drives (which is entirely possible) in order to perform the RAID functionality... and the only way that RAID types can be converted on-the-fly is by using SCSI, so that
[10:55] <wols_> b0lland: it's a dpkg-reconfigure of one of the mane apache2 packages. which is why a full apache2 purge will delete and then recreate it on install
[10:55] <wols_> bleepbloop: i915
[10:56] <wols_> b0lland: no
[10:56] <PurpZeY> bruno_: Bear with me i am looking into any possible issues....
[10:56] <kitche> zeeeee: actually it does you need to install that lib manually the installer from eclipse won't install it by itself
[10:56] <simon__> bluetooth help anyone?
[10:56] <Corvinis-V> wols_ could you tell me what the dd and klogd command are ?
[10:56] <LjL> zeeeee: what do  file /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0  and  file libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0.800.20  show?
[10:56] <wols_> removing only apache2 won't remove apache fully. dpkg -l |grep apache2
[10:56] <bleepbloop> wols_: thanks ill give that a try
[10:56] <zeeeee> "ldconfig -p|grep libgtk-x11" shows "libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0 (libc6) => /usr/lib/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0"
[10:56] <Gnea> !bluesooth | simon__
[10:56] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bluesooth - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:56] <LjL> b0lland: yes, i mean that
[10:56] <b0lland> wols_ ok thanks
[10:56] <mister_roboto> zeeeee: i use eclipse 3.2 from eclipse.org. what problem you having again?
[10:56] <zeeeee> kitche, it's already there
[10:56] <Gnea> !bluetooth | simon__
[10:56] <ubotu> simon__: For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[10:56] <winternacht> Gnea: I wasnt spouting off about complex systems I was telling you I have SCSI equipment besides IDE drives are SCSI too, they accept the same commands
[10:57] <phretor> I've unintentionally removed an applet containing a lot of useful stuff from the upper panel: network card, master volume, and so on. How do I put it back again?
[10:57] <phretor> (from Gnome)
[10:57] <wols_> Corvinis-V: klogd is kernel log daemon. required. dd is copy program of sorts. hard to explain.depends on the options it is run with what it does. very verstatile program
[10:57] <Gnea> winternacht: that's still wrong though, since you wouldn't be using real SCSI drives in such an array.
[10:57] <zeeeee> LjL, former is a symlink, latter is "ELF 32-bit LSB shared object, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), stripped"
[10:57] <LjL> phretor: right click and "Add"?
[10:57] <parag0n> right click - add to panel - choose what you want to add
[10:57] <bruno_> PurpZeY: i will reboot directly on ubuntu so i won't have sound
[10:57] <LjL> zeeeee: ok, just wanted to make sure it hadn't turned into garbage for some reason.
[10:57] <PurpZeY> bruno_: Good plan.
[10:57] <nickyd> exit
[10:58] <Corvinis-V> yeah.... I can't figure out why each of the processes uses 50% cpu and there's something wrong with the networksettings since I'm not getting any pageloads in firefox
[10:58] <zeeeee> mister_roboto, i doubt this is an eclipse problem so much as a dynamic linking problem, but when running eclipse i get a "error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". indeed, ldd .../eclipse also says 'not found.' however that symlink and its target exist in /usr/lib. that should be sufficient, but i tried explicitly setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib anywa
[10:58] <zeeeee> y, to no avail.
[10:58] <phretor> parag0n: what's its name
[10:58] <phretor> ?
[10:58] <Gnea> winternacht: also, reiserfs has its place in the server arrangement, and boycotting it just because of what we don't really know what happened with his wife is also completely wrong. if you're going to discredit reiserfs, do so technically, otherwise you make yourself look like a total fool.
[10:58] <Corvinis-V> so I can't copy it to you... i'm using another pc atm
[10:58] <b0lland> wols_, LjL, thanks guys, if I just purged enough modules it worked upon reinstall. :)
[10:58] <wols_> ciaron: tail -f /var/log/messages
[10:58] <winternacht> Gnea: Im  boycotting it for my personal use, not for everyones use.
[10:58] <b0lland> wols keep up the good work! :D
[10:59] <wols_> Corvinis-V: tail -f /var/log/messages

[10:59] <ubotu> juaco: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[10:59] <juaco> ok
[10:59] <wols_> Corvinis-V: ps aux will tell you more than just "dd". there is stuff behind that written. what?
[10:59] <Jowi> Elfboy, use "sudo" before the command
[10:59] <juaco> upgraded to last kernel, and after boot i got a blank screen, i got the desktop after boot tho
[11:00] <juaco> compiled console driver for my intel 915G in kernel
[11:00] <Gnea> winternacht: at any rate, ext3 would work great on that promise array. you may like to know that ext4 is right around the corner.
[11:00] <juaco> whats wrong?
[11:00] <r00tintheb0x> juaco, your kernel framebuffer is set up incorrectly
[11:00] <novato_br> hi, on ubuntu have fluxbox?
[11:00] <winternacht> thanks.
[11:00] <sdac> hi,  does any know why SATA hard disk (using Sil 3124 controller) runs very slow on linux (poor hdparm results)  ?  I read all over the net i can't figure out if its a driver issue ...even tried a diff distro but also same slow hard disk
[11:00] <Eng-Tea> trying to install java jre it wont install
[11:00] <juaco> i tried setting video=intelfb:mode=1280x1024x32@60
[11:01] <Elfboy> ok is there some i can read to know how to use it now
[11:01] <juaco> the only difference it made my monitor stopped telling me that the mode was erroneous
[11:01] <r00tintheb0x> juaco, thats why it goes blank, your vid card cant handle that.
[11:01] <Watchman_> hey, which are the differences between the ubuntu low latency e o ubuntu generic listed on the grub screen?
[11:01] <r00tintheb0x> you can try video=intelfb:mode=1280x1024x16@60
[11:01] <juaco> should i try with 1024x760  then?
[11:01] <bleepbloop> wols_: Just tried i915 but it doesn't exist. Any suggestions?

[11:02] <Jowi> juaco, If i'm not mistaken, 1024x768 is the top resolution before 915resolution loads (at least that is the result I have)
[11:02] <jtreglos> hi folks
[11:02] <Eng-Tea> how to install rpm.bin file
[11:02] <r00tintheb0x> or video=intelfb:mode=1024x768x16@60
[11:02] <lauriexxx> Hi all
[11:02] <juaco> oki'm trying those
[11:02] <juaco> thank you guys
[11:02] <wols_> Corvinis-V: ps aux I said. not top

[11:02] <AMDfanboy> hey guys, just something i miss from my good ole KDE days.... i have a folder with a bunch of zip files.... i want to extract them all into folders with the names of the files .... that is make these folders and then extract thier respective zips into them.... in ark, this was an option, but i dont think i can do it in gnome outside of scritping it myself?
[11:03] <Eng-Tea> i have this file to install jre-1_5_0_12-linux-i586-rpm.bin
[11:03] <liquiddoom> Speaking of filesystems... will XFS work well for a partition with backups stored on it?
[11:03] <Tb0n3> so, I'm overclocking my old 2GHz celeron
[11:03] <Tb0n3> but I want to see the temp
[11:03] <LjL> Eng-Tea: why on earth would you install that? we have java available in the repositories.
[11:03] <LjL> !java > Eng-Tea    (Eng-Tea, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:03] <bleepbloop> I think jauco is having the same problem as me with a 915 but I joined to late. Can anyone provide a solution? I have 915resolution installed but can't seem to change my resolution. Currently using the i810 drivers.
[11:03] <lauriexxx> I ve installed feisty for a friend, and after trying to install beryl, i can't get the graphic server working, just got a blank page... after long in, any ideas?
[11:03] <Tb0n3> where do I find my cpu temperature?
[11:04] <LjL> !info lm-sensors > Tb0n3
[11:04] <spasticteapot> Tb0n3: Why on earth would you do that?
[11:04] <jtreglos> I'm having a problem with mounting a SMB filesystem at boot time, while mounting it manually with sudo mount /mnt/mount_point from the command line works fine... Anyone has an idea what the problem could be ?
[11:04] <Tb0n3> because I'm gonna get something new anyways
[11:04] <Tb0n3> it's a 2.0 and it's at 2.5 now
[11:04] <wols_> Tb0n3: try mbmon
[11:04] <liquiddoom> jtreglos: Are you adding it to /etc/fstab?
[11:04] <Elfboy> ok i have vsftpd runing now but i dont know how to set it up
[11:04] <Elfboy> is there something i can rad
[11:04] <lauriexxx> HELP  PLEASE !!!! I ve installed feisty for a friend, and after trying to install beryl, i can't get the graphic server working, just got a blank page... after long in, any ideas?
[11:04] <pauldy_> anyone ever here of issues with br0 interfaces allowing some ips o work in a virtual interface but some just don't

[11:05] <magnetron> jtreglos: maybe you are mounting it before you have net access?
[11:05] <Elfboy> thanks
[11:05] <Watchman_> hey, which are the differences between the ubuntu low latency e o ubuntu generic listed on the grub screen?
[11:05] <jtreglos> liquiddoom: yes, but when it loads at boot time, it hangs for a few minutes before aborting the mounting... but when I do it from the command line, it works fine
[11:05] <maynards-girl> these are the erros I'm getting when I try to play a DVD. It's all square-like: http://pastebin.ca/534679

[11:06] <liquiddoom> jtreglos: Ah, smb... show me the line in fstab
[11:06] <jtreglos> magnetron: that would be weird indeed... How could I check the sequencing ?
[11:06] <jtreglos> liquiddoom: ok 2 sec
[11:06] <Corvinis-V> wols_ there a few more lines above it but none with the grep dd behing it
[11:06] <Jowi> bleepbloop, 1. which resolution do you want) 2. what is the default depth? 3. pastebin /etc/X11/xorg.conf and I can have a look at it
[11:06] <magnetron> jtreglos: i don't know. check the specific error in the logs. i got to go, bye
[11:06] <Jowi> bleepbloop, question 1 should have a ? instead of ) at the end :)

[11:06] <Daylighter> is there any way I can spoof a website so it thinks I'm on windows and not *nix? I have a website I need to access that will let me in w/ firefox, but not ubuntu
[11:06] <jtreglos> magnetron: ok thx :)
[11:07] <liquiddoom> jtreglos: I put my SMB mount at the end of fstab
[11:07] <lauriexxx> PurpZEY: yes it was all working ok, did a few updates, caus some of the directories we're broke, and i kept on getting a message about cluster breaks, but now, i can't open even in gnome failsafe
[11:07] <wols_> Corvinis-V: that is not dd the command. maybe the command ended already :(
[11:07] <jrib> Daylighter: easiest way, get the useragent extension for firefox
[11:07] <jtreglos> liquiddoom: yeah that's also what i did
[11:07] <PurpZeY> AMDfanboy: I'd have to think that there was a command in term.
[11:07] <liquiddoom> Daylighter: firefox useragent plugin
[11:07] <Tb0n3> woops
[11:07] <Corvinis-V> it's still in the top screen
[11:07] <AMDfanboy> really?
[11:07] <Tb0n3> umm, mbmon says it's 53C
[11:07] <Tb0n3> bios says it's 70
[11:08] <jander99> AMDfanboy, apt-get ark?
[11:08] <AMDfanboy> i doubt it?  in unzip or unrar?
[11:08] <Corvinis-V> @ 50% cpu-ish... and so is klogd.....
[11:08] <liquiddoom> jtreglos: Hmm... not sure. ack, my server is calling. Gotta run
[11:08] <Corvinis-V> wols_ should I reboot and see if that helps ? or won't that help
[11:08] <Gnea> maynards-girl: umount /media/cdrom1 && mplayer -cdrom-device /dev/dvd1 dvd://   (whatever cdrom1 is linked to)
[11:08] <jtreglos> ok thx anyway
[11:08] <AMDfanboy> i use ubnutu with gnome, would it be a big deal do download ark?
[11:08] <Tb0n3> and the temp started at 61 now it'sdown to 52
[11:08] <liquiddoom> AMDfanboy: No problem at all
[11:08] <lauriexxx> PurpZEY: i ve tried reinstalling gome, but to no avail..snif
[11:08] <siloko> hi dudes - any vmware guru's online?
[11:08] <AMDfanboy> actually ark is buggy too!  it does it but often screws up the unrar, like doesnt fully extract all the files
[11:08] <liquiddoom> AMDfanboy: It might want some KDE deps, but it'll work fine
[11:08] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: Ok, so, you had it working...installed beryl and then nothing?
[11:08] <AMDfanboy> kind of bad because i'
[11:09] <jander99> AMDfanboy, one of the joys of linux, applications aren't tied to desktop managers
[11:09] <Tb0n3> how fast could I get it before it blows up do you think?
[11:09] <PurpZeY> !ask | siloko
[11:09] <ubotu> siloko: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[11:09] <bleepbloop> Jowi: I would like a resolution bigger than 1024x768 which is the only option available. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23960/ Thanks!
[11:09] <Scunizi> Elfboy, the vsftp site has some good info.  If you're behind a firewall you may also have issues with your ISP.  Lots of ISP's block server ports 80 & 20/21 because they don't want you running servers.. Fortunatly you can change the ports.
[11:09] <infidel> i need some help,.. i can't get gnome to run correctly. first i get a bonobo error and the after it kicks me out i get and xsession error saying a windows manager is already running
[11:09] <AMDfanboy> m grading, and if the file isnt extracted i mistakenly give hte person a 0!
[11:09] <lauriexxx> PurpZEY: yes, and i have removed beryl and emerald
[11:09] <akromyk> how can I find where a program i just installed is located on my computer?? it didn't create a link in the menu.
[11:09] <phi1> evening all,
[11:09] <siloko> my vmware xp virtual machine doesn't appeat to be using my onboard ram
[11:09] <akromyk> bye
[11:09] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: Can you get to recovery console?
[11:09] <fbarcenas> how do you make ubuntu redetect your hardware?
[11:09] <Scunizi> akromyk, what program?
[11:09] <lauriexxx> PurpZEY: yes,only failsafe terminal on boot
[11:10] <siloko> it's continually swapping even though ram usage is down as 20 per cent
[11:10] <akromyk> Scunizi, kismet
[11:10] <phi1> i need a hanbd with
[11:10] <maynards-girl> gnea, how can i tell what cdrom1 is linked to?
[11:10] <phi1> sorry
[11:10] <wols_> akromyk: dpkg -L <packagename> |grep bin
[11:10] <Gnea> maynards-girl: grep cdrom1 /etc/fstab
[11:10] <phi1> i need a hand with the ubuntu live cd and a windows xp sp2 install
[11:10] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: And what is the error when trying to boot into gnome?
[11:10] <Scunizi> akromyk, you could type "locate kismet" in a terminal.. That should do it.
[11:10] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: Also, how did you remove beryl?
[11:10] <yeniklasor> How can I extract *.psa files?
[11:10] <wols_> phi1: to do what?
[11:10] <phi1> anyone wanna give us a hand>
[11:10] <sergioll> hello
[11:11] <sergioll> does someone here use a QNAP NAS?
[11:11] <Jowi> bleepbloop, can you give me "uname -a" please and a pastebin of "sudo 915resolution -l"
[11:11] <liquiddoom> !dualboot | phi1

[11:11] <lauriexxx> PurpZEY: well there is no error, i just log on, and the screen is blank, and when i ctrl alt backspace, i can see my desktop before restarting...
[11:11] <phi1> well i messed up my xp partition with partition magic so i wiped my hdd and tried to re install xp but it failed............many times
[11:11] <akromyk> thanks
[11:11] <IowaDave> AMDfanboy: be sure to back up that data file before doing things that put student data at risk!
[11:11] <lauriexxx> phil: try dban
[11:11] <Scunizi> akromyk, did that work for you?
[11:11] <phi1> so ive now got ubuntu live cd running and im trying to find a way to install xp with ubuntu
[11:12] <phi1> the xp cd is copied and used dr dos as a startup os and it just will not let me install xp at all
[11:12] <fbarcenas> how do you make ubuntu redetect your hardware? Anyone?
[11:12] <Tb0n3> phwew calculating pi brought my proc to 75C
[11:12] <phi1> oh and i cant write to my hd with ubuntu
[11:12] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: I think there is a way to get an x-log, during a start up, getting that might be a place to start...I mean, this is sort of beyond my scope, but I'd recommend getting some sort of log, to figure out what is going on...Also you might find more help in #beryl, since beryl caused the issue.
[11:12] <Gnea> phi1: follow the URLs you were just given, you'll probably have to make another partition and set that up in ubuntu, then reboot the xp cd in order to get that going.
[11:13] <phi1> ive tried making new partitions under ubuntu but xp doesnt recognise them and just stops and i have to reboot
[11:13] <Semper> how do i run .exe files in ubuntu 7.04
[11:13] <g8tr> Is there a reason I can't seem to get any file completion to work in a terminal on files starting with ( symbol?
[11:13] <PurpZeY> Semper: Wine
[11:13] <phi1> i think it has a lot to do with dr dos and the fact i cant write to my hd
[11:13] <lauriexxx> PurpZey, is there no easier way to go back on what i have done? or reinstall the x erver completely?
[11:13] <liquiddoom> Semper: Use wine
[11:13] <Semper> games and etc..
[11:13] <akromyk> does kismet have a gui or is it all in command-line?
[11:14] <Semper> i am using wine
[11:14] <Semper> but it says it cannot find
[11:14] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: Is it a fresh install of ubuntu?
[11:14] <bleepbloop> Jowi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/23963/ I have appended part of my xorg log as well.
[11:14] <maynards-girl> gnea, when I type that get "/dev/hdb        /media/cdrom1   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0" so I type "umount /media/cdrom1 && mplayer -cdrom-device /dev/hdb dvd://" but it's doesn't work.  It says "umount: /media/cdrom1 is not mounted (according to mtab)"
[11:14] <Semper> does it have to be on the linux partition or does it matter?
[11:14] <akromyk> Scunizi, i think it worked now i just have to figure out how to run it
[11:14] <lauriexxx> PurpZey: it was, with a whole load of goodies, plus the usual dilema of photos.
[11:15] <yeniklasor> Semper : type wine "C\anything.exe
[11:15] <fbarcenas> OK, from the silence I should assume that there is no way to make ubuntu scan for hardware changes.
[11:15] <TaJMoX> akromyk kismet has gui
[11:15] <Gnea> maynards-girl: that's odd - okay, re-mount it and try the mplayer command again
[11:15] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: Either way, if it is, you could just install ubuntu again, fresh...otherwise, I imagine, and I might be wrong, and somebody can correct me, you should be able to remove ubuntu-desktop and apt-get it again. Someone will need to verify that though?
[11:15] <hammedhaaret> hi.  im on skype with a friend... and suddenly ubuntu wont play any other sound than skype... songbird, youtube, nothing.. anybody got a clue?!?
[11:15] <yeniklasor> wine "C:\any.exe"
[11:15] <TaJMoX> akromyk its text based gui
[11:15] <Semper> @yeniklasor: i did but it couldnt find
[11:15] <lauriexxx> PurpZey: i would like to avoid having to do a fresh instll
[11:15] <yeniklasor> what did you type?
[11:16] <akromyk> I keep on getting the following message when I try to run kismet:  Please configure at least one packet source.  Kismet will not function if no packet sources are defined in kismet.conf or on the command line.  Please read the README for more information about configuring Kismet.

[11:16] <reya276> hello, can anyone help to install some fonts, or is there a tool I can install that would work like the way you install fonts on windows
[11:16] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: I think trying to reinstall ubuntu-desktop might work...You can do it via the live CD most likely.
[11:17] <phi1> sorry, of topic q, can you install ubuntu from the live cd?
[11:17] <yeniklasor> Semper: No you must begin with C:\...
[11:17] <fbarcenas> lauriexxx,  yes, you can , I just don't remember the syntax at the moment.
[11:17] <maynards-girl> gnea: nothing happens now. I get this error:"Win32 LoadLibrary failed to load: avisynth.dll, /usr/lib/win32/avisynth.dll, /usr/local/lib/win32/avisynth.dll"

[11:17] <[Rolamoto] > can somebody help me? Compiz isn't working on my PowerPC box. It was automaticly downloaded when I upgraded to 7.04
[11:17] <bleepbloop> anathematic: cat /proc/cpuinfo should work
[11:17] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: Yeah, but I imagine you want to know the name of the package first.
[11:17] <kbrooks> phil: that q is not off topic
[11:17] <phi1> ok, how can i install ubuntu from the live cd? theres not an option in the startup menu
[11:17] <PurpZeY> phil: run to the desktop, then click the install button.

[11:18] <etherclear> phil: there should be an icon on the desktop, click it
[11:18] <PurpZeY> reya276: What do you need to know?
[11:19] <[Rolamoto] > all that shows up is a white screen and the cursor
[11:19] <Jowi> bleepbloop, thanks. you should be able to use 1280x1024 and 1600x1200 (assuming your monitor support those resolutions). If your monitor support the 1200x1050 resolution that you have in xorg.conf you need to set up 915resolution to handle that res. What type of monitor do you have (CRT or LCD) and what is the monitors native resolution?
[11:19] <magnetron> hammedhaaret: that is skype's fault. skype messes up the sound system
[11:19] <kitche> hammedhaaret: think skype uses oss
[11:19] <reya276> well I need to know how to install fonts
[11:19] <hammedhaaret> lauriexxx: yes i am
[11:19] <Jowi> s/1200x1050/1400/1050
[11:19] <Gnea> maynards-girl: mplayer's website also has all of the standard codecs for download in a single zip file
[11:19] <hammedhaaret> magnetron: ok.,.. anyway to fux it?
[11:19] <hammedhaaret> fix*
[11:19] <reya276> is there a tool that can help me do this other than command line
[11:19] <Journeyman> I can't seem to get a cgi to run on my webserver
[11:19] <kitche> hammedhaaret: oss only allows one program to use sound i say load up the alsa-oss module
[11:19] <Journeyman> the browser tries to download the file
[11:19] <kbrooks> um
[11:19] <kbrooks> I need a good link to a easy backup tool.
[11:20] <Journeyman> I have it in the proper directory (cgi-bin)
[11:20] <magnetron> hammedhaaret: what kitche said
[11:20] <lauriexxx> hammedhaaret: i had this problem witha toshiba laptop, you need to get the latest alsa mixer
[11:20] <kbrooks> really totally 100% easy
[11:20] <phi1> i so love running ubuntu form cd, its soooooooo fast.......where is the install button?
[11:20] <Semper> so it has to be in the c: folder?
[11:20] <Journeyman> the mod is enabled
[11:20] <Semper> it cant be on another partition?
[11:20] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: The package for ubuntu desktop...is just ubuntu-desktop
[11:20] <akromyk> is there any irc chat that anyone knows of where I can get more advanced help on Kismet?
[11:20] <magnetron> phi1: on the desktop
[11:20] <yeniklasor> phi1: didn't you see it :)
[11:20] <[Rolamoto] > compiz isn't working on my PowerPC install of Ubuntu 7.04
[11:20] <phi1> on the desktop i just have a cd rom icon and the taskbar at the top
[11:21] <lauriexxx> PurpZey:do you think i can sudo apt-get remove, and then just install after?
[11:21] <PurpZeY> phi1: I believe it is the cd-rom button.
[11:21] <lauriexxx> PurpZey: i m right next to it, command line ready to go
[11:21] <phi1> oooh ok, hang on a sec, i'll find out
[11:21] <webchick> hey, folks. what's the proper place to report some grammatical errors on the trademark policy?
[11:21] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: I don't really see how that could hurt. I mean, it's not going to mess up any of your data. Worst case, it doesn't work.
[11:21] <kitche> [Rolamoto] : hmm well 7.04 on PPC is community supported now so not sure if anyone here can help you with it I can't sicne I never used ppc
[11:21] <lauriexxx> PurpZey: here goes
[11:21] <maynards-girl> gnea, trying the Ubuntu restricted extras package one
[11:21] <kbrooks> can i please ask a question...

[11:22] <jarda_> jfhf
[11:22] <sp3llcast3r> real player media... with embebed subtitles
[11:22] <PurpZeY> kitche: As I recall I think it's Real format. Or something of that nature. . .
[11:22] <mthead>  /say Semper: you might try mangling the Windows long filenames ("Documents and Settings" becomes "docume~1", I believe...
[11:22] <Corvinis-V> wols_ I just rebooted my system but dd and klogd are still up there each eating into 50% cpu power
[11:22] <sp3llcast3r> yep
[11:22] <[Rolamoto] > it still sucks how its downloaded but won't work
[11:22] <kbrooks> I need a good link to a simple backup tool.
[11:23] <kitche> sp3llcast3r: try helix-player
[11:23] <Jowi> bleepbloop, the log say "Not using mode "1280x1024" (no mode of this name)" if you want, I can help you create that mode to put in xorg.conf. but to do that it is good to know what values your monitor support.
[11:23] <sp3llcast3r> kitche, i'll try.. it's on the add/remove list?
[11:23] <Semper> mtheah: hmm maybe
[11:23] <kitche> PurpZeY: yeah figured but wanted ot make sure haven't used realplayer lately
[11:23] <drekon> kbrooks: http://sbackup.sourceforge.net

[11:23] <SillyZ> grettings, just got 7.04 installed in text mode, now how to get the ATI up and going ?
[11:23] <kitche> sp3llcast3r: you might have to use synaptic
[11:23] <sp3llcast3r> tks kitche , brb, i'll try
[11:23] <kitche> JiBEsH: you mean the console resolution?
[11:24] <JiBEsH> kitche: yes

[11:24] <ubotu> SillyZ: To install the Ati/NVidia drivers for your video card, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BinaryDriverHowto
[11:24] <akromyk> sorry for asking so many questions
[11:24] <bleepbloop> Jowi: I'm currently on a HP TC4200 Tablet PC. According to this website (http://www.zdnet.com.au/reviews/hardware/laptops/soa/Convertible-capability-Five-tablet-PCs-tested/0,2000065761,139217760-8,00.htm) the native resolution is actually 1024x 768. Does that mean I can't go beyond that?
[11:24] <akromyk> thanks for the help guys. bye
[11:24] <lauriexxx> PurpZey: i m getting a whole load of errors, i m wondering if that might be the problem, dpkg and clvmd cluster managemnet...booo
[11:24] <user_> SillyZ; im about to tell u something awesome about 7.04, its gonna aotodetect ur ATI :D
[11:24] <robert98374> hello everyone!
[11:24] <SillyZ> oh?
[11:25] <sp3llcast3r> latelly after i install something i get this message... "E: runit: subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1"
[11:25] <sp3llcast3r> anyone knows what is it about?
[11:25] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: On the remove or the get
[11:25] <robert98374> Is it easy to network Ubuntu with Winxp?
[11:25] <[Rolamoto] > is anybody using the powerpc version of 7.04?
[11:25] <wols_> Corvinis-V: until you tell me the parameters of that dd command: no help
[11:25] <kitche> JiBEsH: vga= have to add that to the kernel boot paraments after hte equals is the resolution you want what resolution do you want?
[11:25] <SillyZ> user_  can you join #sillyz with me ?
[11:25] <liquiddoom> [Rolamoto] : There is no powerpc version, is there?
[11:25] <maynards-girl> Gnea, I added that package but I still get the same error
[11:25] <wols_> Corvinis-V: and also check your kernel log. maybe it spits out messages like mad
[11:25] <Jowi> bleepbloop, yes, you assume correct. an LCD screen native resolution is its maximal one. 1024x768 is what you get on this device it seems.
[11:25] <PurpZeY> robert98374: Samba should generally do it, not sure how easy it is.
[11:26] <liquiddoom> [Rolamoto] : I thought powerpc support was dropped in 6.10
[11:26] <Semper> whats mfc42.dll?
[11:26] <Semper> O.o
[11:26] <jander99> windows library
[11:26] <kitche> JiBEsH: you could just have vga=ask so it asks you each time until you figure out the resolution number
[11:26] <Semper> says its required to run
[11:26] <[Rolamoto] > yeah there is, its community supported though
[11:26] <JiBEsH> kitche: ok thanks, so I add vga=1280x800 in grub ?
[11:26] <Semper> the game
[11:26] <lauriexxx> PurpZey: on the remove, and get, it did it when i tried removing beryl, i got simalar messages
[11:26] <jander99> google for the file and put it in the game directory Semper
[11:26] <Gnea> maynards-girl: does it happen with any DVD or only with that particular one?
[11:26] <mthead> Semper: Microsoft Foundation Classes v. 4.2
[11:26] <jander99> at least, that works in windows lol
[11:26] <Semper> jander99: ok thankyou
[11:27] <w4ett> SillyZ,  sudo dpkg etc/X11/xorg.conf
[11:27] <jander99> hopefully wine accepts DLLs in the application path
[11:27] <Corvinis-V> wols_ ok i'll check kernel log, what's the command for it ?
[11:27] <mthead> Semper: it should be in your \windows\system32 folder, if not you can download it from various repositories
[11:28] <wols_> dmesg
[11:28] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: I'm not going to lie to you, this is start to be beyond my scope. . .But, what kind of errors?
[11:28] <Jowi> bleepbloop, cool device btw
[11:28] <lauriexxx> w4ett: what is that dpkg thing?
[11:28] <kiersie> i have uploaded an dvd case cover for 7.04 hdo you like it?  http://art.ubuntu.com/main.php?g2_itemId=9655
[11:29] <w4ett> lauriexxx,  to reset xorg.conf
[11:29] <lauriexxx> Purzey: i think my friend has broken his apt lists
[11:29] <Semper> mthead: what if its a umm emulater how would i be able to open game within the emulater
[11:29] <Corvinis-V> wols_ APIC error on CPU0: 08(08) it keeps spitting that msg
[11:29] <lauriexxx> w4ett: were you following my discussion?
[11:29] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: Try running the command w4ett just told Sillyz to run.
[11:29] <maynards-girl> Gnea, yeah! it works with a different dvd
[11:30] <bleepbloop> Jowi: Thanks : ) That makes me really bummed that I'm stuck with this resolution though. : ( I was sure that on XP I went past 1024 though.
[11:30] <mthead> Semper -  Sorry, UMM?  Don't know it...
[11:30] <Gnea> maynards-girl: probably a bad dvd then
[11:30] <spasticteapot> Anyone here know how to get Ubuntu to dual-boot with DeLi linux?
[11:30] <spasticteapot> It's driving me nuts.
[11:30] <maynards-girl> gnea, thank you so much for your help and patience
[11:30] <PurpZeY> !dualboot | spasticteapot
[11:30] <ubotu> spasticteapot: Dual boot instructions:  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WindowsDualBootHowTo (x86/AMD64) - https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YabootConfigurationForMacintoshPowerPCsDualBoot (Macintosh)
[11:30] <wols_> Corvinis-V: that could be it. start with noapic
[11:30] <Semper> mthead: have u been on windows? an emulater is to play like playstation games on your computer (windows)
[11:31] <wols_> !apic
[11:31] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about apic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:31] <kitche> JiBEsH: you have to use 1024x768 so it would vga=755 you can go to 1024x1028 if you want but my firefox just closed sicne I hit the hotkeys for it so I can't get you the code for the higher resolution
[11:31] <Gnea> maynards-girl: you're welcome, have fun
[11:31] <mthead> SEmper - yes, I mostly work with windows - but the last game emulator I used was MAME ten years ago.  Not much of a gamer.
[11:31] <Corvinis-V> wols_ ok how do i start with that... or did you mean just using it in terminal? the noapic command
[11:31] <jzilla> would i be correct in saying the only different between ubuntu and kubuntu is one uses gnome and one uses kde?
[11:32] <w4ett> sorry tired...what I meant to say was sudo dpkg-reconfigure x-server-xorg
[11:32] <spasticteapot> PurpZeY: I'm trying to boot to a different version of linux. The link you gave me is not helpful for that.
[11:32] <PurpZeY> jzilla: I believe so.
[11:32] <liquiddoom> jzilla: That's really the major difference
[11:32] <kbrooks> hmm, be impresed (tm)
[11:32] <lauriexxx> Purzey: i think my friend has broken his apt lists, do you know how to releod original values?
[11:32] <PurpZeY> spasticteapot: What version?
[11:32] <kbrooks> sbackup is easy and works.
[11:32] <wols_> Corvinis-V: on bootup
[11:32] <spasticteapot> DeLi.
[11:32] <PurpZeY> lauriexxx: How did you break the aptlists using beryl?
[11:32] <Semper> mthead: wow...lol why wont it let me use the "open" option to run files within the program only IT can open
[11:32] <liquiddoom> lauriexxx: Administration > Software Sources  and click Revert
[11:32] <spasticteapot> PurpZeY: Is GRUB not installed?
[11:32] <mthead> Semper - Anyway, if UMM is anything like MAME, then it's UMM that needs to worry about DLLs, and not the actual emulated games.  Get UMM working, and the rest follows.
[11:32] <spasticteapot> By default, at least.
[11:32] <PurpZeY> spasticteapot: I have no idea wha that is.
[11:32] <Corvinis-V> ok press tab or something while booting ?
[11:33] <spasticteapot> It's another version of Linux. It keeps trying to install LILO.
[11:33] <Corvinis-V> to give me the commandlineoption?
[11:33] <BigMac> can I ask a samba question here/
[11:33] <PurpZeY> spasticteapot: Right, but you are in #ubuntu, so, asking about another flavor of linux is somewhat off-topic.
[11:33] <w4ett> lauriexxx, sorry what I meant to say was: sudo dpkg-reconfigure x-server-xorg
[11:33] <spasticteapot> PurpZeY :Yes, but I'm trying to dual-boot it with UBUNTU.
[11:33] <sebas_> I've found something like a bug, even if I need superuser privileges to read a file, I can still read the beginning of it by looking at the text thumbnail in nautilus
[11:34] <lauriexxx>  sudo dpkg-reconfigure x-server-xorg, i ve tried this, but says x server is not installed, oh shit?
[11:34] <Semper> mthead: when i click open the terminal runs a debug on it and then exits
[11:34] <spasticteapot> Which is not recognizing the second bootable partition.
[11:34] <kbrooks> spasticteapot, yes, but it is offtopic.
[11:34] <PurpZeY> spasticteapot: Using grub or lilo?
[11:34] <mthead> Semper - UMM is going to need permission to open files from wherever you've put them - I'm guessing you're running into a rights problem
[11:34] <lauriexxx> w4ett: sudo dpkg-reconfigure x-server-xorg, i ve tried this, but says x server is not installed, oh shit?

[11:34] <Jowi> bleepbloop, I'm checking some other pages just to make sure. all of the specs I see for this thing is 12.1 inch LCD XGA (1024x768). bummer
[11:34] <lauriexxx> ok  very sorry

[11:41] <Gnea> SillyZ: ubotu is a bot
[11:41] <LjL> Andeh: you can convert them to ISO, and then loopback mount the ISO. i think there is also some FUSE filesystem around for mounting several types of CD images

[11:44] <Daylighter> user_, I've found ubuntu to be what I need for now, I will branch out when I cant get what I want with what I have :)
[11:44] <AMDfanboy> hey guys, i think i'm really dumb, but i've spend an hour trying to figure out the command unrar
[11:44] <Corvinis-V> wols_ i used irqpoll once and now it's in the kernel argument... should i remove that ?
[11:44] <AMDfanboy> i want to unrar an archive in one directory to another directory
[11:44] <ajax4> AMDfanboy: Have you tried a frontend like file-roller?
[11:44] <AMDfanboy> simple, can't do it.
[11:44] <AMDfanboy> whats that?
[11:45] <Jowi> AMDfanboy, "unrar x filename.rar"
[11:45] <AMDfanboy> whats that x?  extract all with full path
[11:45] <ajax4> AMDfanboy: Its a graphical tool that will let you select the folder you want to unrar into.
[11:45] <AMDfanboy> ?
[11:45] <benplaut> i'm looking for a decent cheap (<$30) soundcard for my parents to compliment their new speakers... suggestions?  Looking for no hassle, of course :P
[11:45] <AMDfanboy> what does that mean?
[11:46] <LjL> !rar > AMDfanboy    (AMDfanboy, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:46] <Jowi> AMDfanboy, if it is a multi-file archive (.rar, r01, r02 etc) you need the non-free version of unrar
[11:46] <mr_daniel> AMDfanboy: open a console and type 'man unrar' in it
[11:46] <mr_daniel> AMDfanboy: you will then see a list of all options and a good explanation
[11:46] <dojo> whwew is the xorg.conf file sroted in ubuntu 7.04?
[11:46] <Jowi> AMDfanboy, it means that it unpacks the files and create directories if needed.
[11:47] <LjL> dojo: /etc/X11
[11:47] <mr_daniel> AMDfanboy: the x option is 'extract files with full path'
[11:47] <user_> Daylighter: sure agre, with my pc atm Ubuntu is no question the best, even im thinking about putting ubuntu on mac mini that i want to buy :) but i doubt im gonna do it, cuz i expect osx to be ok. but i defenately gonna put ubuntu on some test mashine that im planning to get, some old crappy 486 or something ^^
[11:47] <LjL> dojo: you'd normally avoid editing it manually unless you really have to, and use dpkg-reconfigure instead
[11:47] <LjL> !xconfig > dojo    (dojo, see the private message from Ubotu)
[11:47] <wols_> Corvinis-V: that could be areason why it'sdoing what it does
[11:47] <avalon> Is there a way I can PERMANENTLY delete a file? Every time I try deleting a file from my harddrive, it moves it to a hidden folder called trash.root or trash.1 and I can't delete it
[11:47] <ajax4> avalon: Are you using the Nautilus file manager?
[11:47] <LjL> avalon: the "rm" command from the terminal will do the trick.
[11:48] <AMDfanboy> ajax4: i want to do it in mass, there are a bunch of them... in kde it let me select a bunch of rar and zip files and it would make folders named after teh files and extract each file to its respective folder... couldnt do that in gnome so i tried to script it... i know, i tried downloading ark, but ark doesnt give you that power, it was in the kde menu's that the script to do that was ... and it was actually really buggy.
[11:48] <Jowi> avalon, usually shift-del
[11:48] <liquiddoom> benplaut: My card is a $25 Sound blaster Live! 24-bit
[11:48] <ajax4> AMDfanboy: I use a program called file-roller, it should let you do similar things as you did in KDE.
[11:48] <mr_daniel> avalon: if you delete a file with nautilus or on the desktop, then it will be first moved to the trash
[11:48] <liquiddoom> benplaut: Works great, and has 5.1 support
[11:48] <Corvinis-V> wols_ I started with noapic and cpu is normal again :)
[11:48] <dojo> LjL: strange though I cant seem to find it in /etc/X11/
[11:49] <LjL> !find xorg.conf | dojo
[11:49] <Daylighter> user_, if you're doing that, you might want to try something lighter, xubuntu, or something even less, on a 486 :P
[11:49] <Corvinis-V> wols_ but i'll toss out that irqpoll command just to be sure
[11:49] <mr_daniel> avalon: to delete a file completely you need to open the trash and then delte the file also there
[11:49] <ubotu> dojo: File xorg.conf found in xresprobe
[11:49] <benplaut> ok
[11:49] <user_> Daylighter: or if its gonna be something like 486, debian itsself would be good i guess :)
[11:49] <LjL> dojo: meh, nevermind xresprobe...
[11:49] <mr_daniel> avalon: you can find the trash under /home/<your name>/.Trash
[11:49] <ajax4> avalon: If you are using Nautilus you have to change the settings which will let you delete files without sending them to the trash.
[11:49] <mr_daniel> avalon: the '.' at the beginning of the file marks the file as a hidden file
[11:49] <dojo> LjL: k thx ill try
[11:50] <astomper> How do I change my password in evolution?
[11:50] <Daylighter> user_, I had a 486 and I was able to get online, I used Peanut Linux, you could also use Knoppix
[11:50] <LjL> dojo: just reconfigure xserver-xorg, it should be created if for some reason it doesn't exist
[11:50] <user_> Daylighter: when i get one, ill defenately see, i guess its gonna be something like DSL orzo :)
[11:51] <mr_daniel> astomper: which password you mean. Your login-password to ubuntu?
[11:51] <sp3llcast3r> damn it..
[11:51] <dojo> LjL: how can i reconfigure it
[11:51] <sp3llcast3r> about players and rmvb files :(
[11:51] <AMDfanboy> ok, i was using file-roller, it certainly doesnt have that feature

[11:52] <ajax4> AMDfanboy: What feature doesn't it have?
[11:53] <Daylighter> user_, http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/03/via-epia-px10000-pico-itx-motherboard-gets-reviewed/ would be an experiment in ubuntu, wouldnt it?
[11:53] <mr_daniel> astomper: for the future please use noPasteservice like http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[11:54] <astomper> mr_daniel: instead of pasting in the irc?
[11:54] <mr_daniel> astomper: yes
[11:54] <AMDfanboy> i'm grading assignments, and i have 100, rars and zips.... in kde, i'd select all, right click them and it would have a feature that creates folders named after the files and then extracts each archive in its respective folder
[11:54] <astomper> mr_daniel: ok, I won't
[11:54] <AMDfanboy> i need to do this 20 times, so doing it one by one is not practical.
[11:54] <mr_daniel> astomper: this this also very useful for a large config-file or a error-report

[11:55] <ajax4> AMDfanboy: Ahh, okay...lemme see what I can find.
[11:55] <dojo> how can i find out my keboard modol i think its a pc102
[11:55] <AMDfanboy> so i think i'm going to scritp it, but i cant figure out to use unrar... believe me i looked at hte man page a bunch of times, i just dont get it.
[11:55] <AMDfanboy> thanks!
[11:55] <Jowi> AMDfanboy, use wildcards
[11:56] <mariocesar_bo> hi all, i was messing around whit permissions, and change the permisions of /var
[11:56] <AMDfanboy> how so?
[11:56] <mr_daniel> astomper: there you will find a submenu for 'e-mail accounts'
[11:56] <astomper> mr_daniel: ok
[11:56] <g8tr> unrar x filename.rar
[11:56] <AMDfanboy> why x?
[11:56] <mariocesar_bo> how can in change it back, to default?
[11:56] <LjL> mariocesar_bo: you can't.
[11:56] <Jowi> AMDfanboy, put all the rars in wine dir. then "unrar x *"
[11:56] <mariocesar_bo> LjL: i can't?
[11:56] <Jowi> AMDfanboy, not "wine" I meant "one"
[11:56] <Jowi> lol
[11:56] <mariocesar_bo> LjL: i can do sudo, anymore
[11:56] <AMDfanboy> ha!
[11:56] <mariocesar_bo> LjL: sorry, i can't
[11:57] <LjL> mariocesar_bo: no, since the default isn't stored anywhere, and files in /var normally don't belong to packages.
[11:57] <AMDfanboy> i am whinging, i'm about to cry right now (more like scream ;-)
[11:57] <mr_daniel> mariocesar_bo: what you have done with the /var folder?
[11:57] <LjL> mariocesar_bo: even if you could use sudo, you couldn't restore the default permissions correctly.
[11:57] <mariocesar_bo> yea, but what is are the correct permissions
[11:57] <mr_daniel> mariocesar_bo: please paste a output of 'ls -l /' under http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/
[11:57] <Jowi> AMDfanboy, you need to use "unrar x ..." that's just the way the command work
[11:57] <LjL> mariocesar_bo: they differ widely from file to file.
[11:57] <mariocesar_bo> ok
[11:58] <AMDfanboy> dont think it works, because unrar x extracts them all to the dircetory where i run the script not where i put teh file... unless theres a way to change that in the script?
[11:58] <LjL> mariocesar_bo: i suggest you reinstall and be much more careful with root privileges next time. if you want to try and avoid reinstalling, reboot into recovery mode and  chown -R root:root /var/

[11:58] <ubotu> FFighter Central: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[11:59] <Central> thanks
[11:59] <FFighter> I'm confused... I'm setting up my ruby/rails dev. enviroment on Feisty. I've already installed Ruby 1.8... should I instal rails through ruby's gems or synaptic ?
[11:59] <bruenig> !thanks | Central
[11:59] <ubotu> Central: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[11:59] <octoberdan> How does one set a dns suffix for a vpn connection?
[11:59] <Jowi> AMDfanboy, then that is the way that the rar archive was packaged.
[11:59] <Central> you are?
[11:59] <octoberdan> I'm using networkmanager-pptp
[11:59] <user_> Daylighter: i have to say wow, if i c something like this, my fantasy tells me the days when average pc's gonna be the size of mac mini arent so far away :)
[11:59] <fxfitz> ls
[11:59] <fxfitz> Eep.
[12:00] <FFighter> are there any differences ?
[12:00] <Central> can I ask a question maybe?
[12:00] <ajax4> AMDfanboy: Does each zip contain a folder with a unique name that holds all the files?
[12:00] <mr_daniel> mariocesar_bo: your settings for /var differ just a little bit of my: drwxr-xr-x  16 root root  4096 2006-12-03 13:19 var
[12:00] <bruenig> FFighter, apt-get is the best way likely
[12:00] <mariocesar_bo> yep
[12:00] <qman> FFighter, the rule with apt-get and synaptic is, if you can, you should
[12:00] <FFighter> bruening: Is the version on ubuntu repository updated or is it an old version ?
[12:00] <mariocesar_bo> what, can i do ?
[12:01] <FFighter> qman, hmmm... thanks for the tip
