[12:01] <eKitten> can anyone help me get a nvidia gpu going?
[12:01] <keith1234> what do you mean by that, exactly?
[12:01] <Mikeh> there is an old saying about not being able to help people who won't help themselves kahrytan, a commandline shell is necessary for many tasks...
[12:01] <kahrytan> kriebz: fstab is for internal drivers
[12:01] <kahrytan> drives
[12:01] <keith1234> no
[12:01] <brk3> got my realplayer sound working, just wondering now does anyone know if you can adjust the aspect ratio when playing films?
[12:01] <keith1234> fstab is for all filesystems
[12:02] <kahrytan> No for this one
[12:02] <keith1234> no
[12:02] <kahrytan> Yes
[12:02] <keith1234> okay
[12:02] <kahrytan> It's not in fstab
[12:02] <aoirthoir> ok yall I am heading home..I will work on this some more.
[12:02] <aoirthoir> thanks for the help
[12:02] <kriebz> kahrytan, if you want to change the prefs, you need  a line in fstab
[12:02] <kahrytan> I checked with nano
[12:02] <kahrytan> The drive is not listed in fstab
[12:02] <kriebz> you can use nano, but won't read a man page?
[12:02] <keith1234> i don't know the back story, but you must be using hotplug then
[12:02] <Mikeh> lol @ kriebz
[12:03] <kahrytan> keith1234: External Hard Drive.
[12:03] <keith1234> you have two option then
[12:03] <keith1234> you can open a shell, and learn how to use 'mount'
[12:03] <kahrytan> kriebz: There is a difference. One has gibbish. Other one I can read.
[12:03] <melon> when i try to install feisty.. everything appears to install fine.. until i try to run it - then i simply get an underscore cursor type thingie on a blank screen.. nothing else.. no load.. what to do? (apologises for repeat - but need a solution)
[12:03] <klav> pike_ : hi again! just got gtkpod installed - but it can't load my iPod
[12:03] <keith1234> or you can add a line to fstab
[12:03] <zzork> I'm trying to password protect any .txt files in a certain directory using .htaccess
[12:03] <Steven_> hi
[12:03] <blackest> melon laptop ?
[12:03] <Delirium-NL> Hey guys, i've managed to get my nvidia drivers working (easy), got my nice little screen resolution (1280x1024) by editing xconf but now i'm having trouble getting the right refresh rate, nvidia-settings will only let me chose between 60 and 75, and 75 hertz gives me a headache, i know for a fact that my monitor works perfectly with 85 hertz, anyone have an idea?
[12:03] <keith1234> melon: no bootloaded
[12:03] <zzork> but I can't seem to get it right
[12:03] <melon> nope - desktop
[12:04] <pike_> klav: try the 'mount' command hopefully ubuntu has mounted it to /media/ipod
[12:04] <pike_> klav: is it there?
[12:04] <kahrytan> Right now, Let's just fix kriebz's stupid mistake.
[12:04] <melon> i've had dapper installed no problems
[12:04] <keith1234> bootloader, rather
[12:04] <zzork> <FilesMatch "/error/*.(txt)">
[12:04] <zzork>  Order deny,allow
[12:04] <zzork>  Deny from all

[12:04] <klav> pike_ : yes the iPod mounts
[12:04] <Mikeh> adding a line to fstab will require a reboot, right keith1234?
[12:04] <klav> pike_ : but not in GTK
[12:04] <Delirium-NL> anyone an idea? ^
[12:04] <kriebz> kahrytan, if there's no line in there, just re-boot and everything will be as normal
[12:04] <Steven_> i followed this howto (http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=771174) to set up a vnc server on my box, but everyone can log in without typing a password
[12:04] <pike_> klav: you click the load button in gtkipod and it says what?
[12:04] <kriebz> whatever sad state normal is on your PC
[12:04] <keith1234> Mikeh no
[12:05] <blackest> is it a make of computer ? if so google it , it might be broken acpi you set acpi=off on bootup
[12:05] <klav> pike_ : says it can't find the directory structure /media/ipod . then i try to create that structure and it fails
[12:05] <melon> tried that already blackest
[12:05] <pike_> klav: but ls /media/ipod  shows the ipod files there?
[12:05] <melon> was the first thing i saw suggested on a forum
[12:05] <Delirium-NL> Err, people.. i've managed to get my nvidia drivers working (easy), got my nice little screen resolution (1280x1024) by editing xconf but now i'm having trouble getting the right refresh rate, nvidia-settings will only let me chose between 60 and 75, and 75 hertz gives me a headache, i know for a fact that my monitor works perfectly with 85 hertz, anyone have an idea? (Using Geforce FX 5600 with a Philips Brilliance 107p)
[12:05] <kahrytan> What do I do to make it mount as the current user?
[12:05] <RodGo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24491/    >> my xorg.conf file
[12:05] <kriebz> you can't
[12:06] <keith1234> Delirium-NL up the high bound of the frequency range
[12:06] <keith1234> in xorg.conf
[12:06] <Delirium-NL> keith, vertical or ?
[12:06] <kahrytan> kriebz: Yes I can
[12:06] <RodGo> please, i want the screen resolution of my ati video card
[12:06] <keith1234> vertial
[12:06] <stefg> !fixres | Delirium-NL
[12:06] <blackest> sorry melon i cant help
[12:06] <keith1234> vertical
[12:06] <ubotu> Delirium-NL: The X Window System is the part of your system that's responsible for graphical output. To restart your X, type  sudo /etc/init.d/?dm restart  in a console - To fix screen resolution or other X problems: http://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto
[12:06] <kahrytan> otherwise, Ubuntu wouldnt make a good OS
[12:06] <Delirium-NL> oki ty keith =D
[12:06] <keith1234> melon: you have no bootloader
[12:06] <kriebz> kahrytan, no you can't.  you ask a service that runs as root to mount something for you
[12:06] <keith1234> install grub
[12:06] <klav> pike_ :oh perhaps its not working cause the directory has my name? no "ipord"/
[12:06] <klav> ipod*
[12:06] <kahrytan> kriebz: And what service mounts it
[12:06] <SimAtWork> technically, Ubuntu isn't an os kahrytan.  it's a distrobution.
[12:07] <SimAtWork> or distribution
[12:07] <SimAtWork> my spelling is attrocious ;0
[12:07] <kriebz> kahrytan, a umask of 000 makes all the files 777 and user lets users mount as root
[12:07] <pike_> klav: can you pastebin the output of 'mount'?
[12:07] <pike_> !pastebin
[12:07] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[12:07] <melon> lol - it worked fine with dapper.. can i install from the live CD?
[12:07] <kahrytan> SimAtWork: Congrats. you got ignored.
[12:07] <klav> pike_ : how can i redirect GTK to look @ /media/SMILESLEEPY ?
[12:08] <klav> pike_ : oh well i found where the ipod is
[12:08] <keith1234> melon: yes, you can
[12:08] <klav> pike_ : so i guess i need to redirect GTK to that dir?
[12:08] <melon> cheers
[12:08] <pike_> klav: sudo ln /media/SMILESLEEPY /media/ipod   would work
[12:08] <kahrytan> kriebz: I want it mounted everytime so I can write to it.
[12:08] <keith1234> but it's tricky, because you'll have to use 'grub-install --root-dir=/mnt/hda1' or something like that
[12:08] <klav> pike_ : will that rename my ipod?
[12:08] <RodGo> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24491/    >> my xorg.conf file
[12:08] <kriebz> kahrytan, then put it in /etc/fstab
[12:08] <RodGo> please, i want the screen resolution of my ati video card
[12:08] <kahrytan> kriebz: How
[12:08] <keith1234> RodGo: what model?
[12:08] <kriebz> here we go again
[12:09] <pike_> klav: no like a shortcut
[12:09] <kaizo> anyone had problems with amarok from a fresh install of kubuntu? it keeps freezing on startup
[12:09] <pike_> klav: customer here one sec
[12:09] <kriebz> kahrytan, run mount on a command line and pastebin it all to me
[12:09] <kahrytan> kriebz: Why
[12:09] <keith1234> RodGo: pastebin your xorg log file
[12:09] <foug_> ubuntu is based off of debian right
[12:10] <Mikeh> yes foug_
[12:10] <klav> pike_: term says "Hardlink for SMILESLEEPY not allow
[12:10] <Ishmael> is there a package that can play .BIN files copied from /tmp ?
[12:10] <keith1234> kahrytan: running mount with no params will show all mounted filesystems
[12:10] <keith1234> Ishmael: run 'file' on it
[12:10] <foug_> Mikeh: cool, so if i switch to debian, i can use it just the same as ubuntu? sudo apt-get install to install things and whatever else
[12:10] <melon> new Q - because i've already installed.. can i just install grub to the hdd without having to reinstall? (it's not the hdd i'm using)
[12:10] <keith1234> that will tell you what type of data it is
[12:10] <kriebz> kahrytan, mount with no args shows what is mounted currently
[12:10] <keith1234> foug_ yes, pretty much
[12:11] <Ishmael> it says macromedia flash video keith1234
[12:11] <keith1234> the initial setup is a bit trickier, though
[12:11] <foug_> cool thanks
[12:11] <jx> is there any way to get vlc to stop skipping on dvd playback ?
[12:11] <kriebz> kahrytan, I want to see what device your external drive has been assigned
[12:11] <kahrytan> kriebz: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24492/
[12:11] <Mikeh> yes foug_, but it will be very different from Ubuntu, all the commands will be the same, but everything else is different
[12:11] <foug_> keith1234: how so?
[12:11] <keith1234> Ishmael, you need the flash player then ;-)
[12:11] <Fredle> foug_, ..  ubuntu use the same package system as deb
[12:11] <moonlite> How do i tell Epiphany not to open a new Nautilus window showing my download folder everytime i download a file?
[12:11] <larsemil__> i have this problem with my ubuntu starting without network. i have to click the icon up in the panel and choose my network. then it starts. why is this not started automaticly?
[12:11] <Ishmael> do you know the name of one keith1234
[12:11] <keith1234> rename it to .swf and firefox should play it
[12:11] <keith1234> using the plugin
[12:12] <Ranbee> hi, does anyone know how to generate an aide database?
[12:12] <foug_> Mikeh: can you sum up what you mean by everything else?
[12:12] <keith1234> larsemil__ wireless?
[12:12] <Mikeh> http://img399.imageshack.us/img399/760/sany0186pr1.jpg <<< I get that message on boot up, any ideas?
[12:12] <kahrytan> kriebz: It's not listed in there
[12:12] <larsemil__> keith1234: no. this is the weird thing
[12:12] <kriebz> kahrytan, reboot then, then plug in the drive
[12:13] <kriebz> kahrytan, sorry gnome broke
[12:13] <kriebz> kahrytan, I thought you were editing fstab
[12:13] <keith1234> Mikeh: buggy bios?
[12:13] <kahrytan> kriebz:  but it's /dev/sdc1 and /dev/sdc2
[12:13] <kriebz> kahrytan, ok then
[12:13] <Mikeh> that's what I thought keith1234, but it's a Dell E521... should be fine
[12:14] <kriebz> kahrytan, you need to make mountpoints for the volumes somewhere
[12:14] <kahrytan> kriebz: Do I steal the lines for cdrom in fstab?
[12:14] <linnuxxy> where can i find a tutorials, books about programming linux with C/C++ automake/autoconfig?
[12:14] <keith1234> it probably has a higher-resolution timer than the 8254 anyway. that's legacy stuff, shouldn't really matter... anyone?
[12:14] <keith1234> linnuxxy: google?
[12:14] <kriebz> kahrytan, more like the lines for the sda1 partition
[12:14] <Mikeh> it happens just after I select Ubuntu in GRUB, so I know it's not some low-level thing keith1234
[12:15] <kriebz> kahrytan, Linux treats USB Storage as SCSI, for some reason
[12:15] <Jowi> larsemil__, run network-admin and disable the NIC(s) you don't use.
[12:15] <keith1234> Mikeh: that's the kernel complaining
[12:15] <gwhite> in fdisk theres 2 options for ntfs  (82 NTFS Volume Set  and  83 NTFS Volume set) which one do i choose or does it not matter?
[12:15] <gwhite> for my winxp partition
[12:15] <larsemil__> Jowi: there are only two. a modem that is not used and then the network cable connection that i want to use
[12:15] <kahrytan> kriebz: It is a SATA drive using USB
[12:15] <kriebz> kahrytan, make mountpoints like /media/windows and /media/files
[12:15] <Mikeh> sounds like my sister... "the timer is too low"
[12:16] <kriebz> kahrytan, what's in the box doesn't matter, just that it's USB
[12:16] <Fredle> sata or ata..  both are IDE
[12:16] <keith1234> gwhite: 83 is linux....
[12:16] <Fredle> no difference for usb
[12:16] <keith1234> and 82 is swap, isn't it?
[12:16] <gwhite> then wtf?
[12:16] <TRAX> hello
[12:16] <Fredle> and A6 is obsd..
[12:16] <kahrytan> kriebz: I still got the options to do
[12:16] <kriebz> gwhite, leave it unpartitioned
[12:17] <keith1234> my NTFS partition is type "7"
[12:17] <colbert> is there a way to see my mouse settings (sensitivity/accel levels) in shell ??
[12:17] <kriebz> kahrytan, copy from the line that has sda1
[12:17] <gwhite> ok iit's 86 and 87 i meant
[12:17] <gwhite> 7 is for HPFS/NTFS
[12:17] <Fredle> keith1234, read the man, you'll find every number for partition types
[12:17] <kahrytan> kri hda
[12:17] <jamie> Ok so GTK is working now - yet nothing will play. herm
[12:17] <kahrytan> kriebz: hda1 in fstab.
[12:17] <gwhite> either way theres THREE ntfs options, which number is it
[12:18] <keith1234> Fredle: thanks... but gwhite is wondering, not me ;-)
[12:18] <gwhite> to install winxp
[12:18] <kriebz> kahrytan, yeah, I don't know what's up with that
[12:18] <Fredle> keith1234, ow, sorry :-)
[12:18] <gwhite> i cant read man pages when i dont have an os isntalled yet
[12:18] <kriebz> kahrytan, Ubuntu is weird
[12:18] <TRAX> im looking for someone who can explain how to make MySql5+PHP5 work under U 7.04
[12:18] <keith1234> gwhite: windows will format it for you during install
[12:18] <gwhite> ok thanks
[12:18] <jamie> Ok so GTK is working now - yet nothing will play. herm
[12:18] <Fredle> gwhite, you're on a box right now, using the internet, use the online manpages :-)
[12:18] <jamie> oh sorry didn't mean that
[12:18] <kahrytan> kriebz: I still have ide system. I just got SATA for future upgrades
[12:18] <keith1234> TRAX: easy easy easy
[12:18] <TRAX> heeeelp!! :-)
[12:18] <gwhite> you dont know im on a normal computer with web access :p
[12:19] <Jowi> larsemil__, do you use a router?
[12:19] <kriebz> kahrytan, for ext3, you want /dev/sdc1 /media/linux ext3 default 0 0
[12:19] <TRAX> keith is it that easy?
[12:19] <petr4> trax: plainly state your problem.
[12:19] <keith1234> yep ;-)
[12:19] <kahrytan> kriebz: options for / is defaults,errors=remount-ro
[12:19] <Fredle> gwhite, so you're on an embedded irc? nice! :-p
[12:19] <keith1234> install mysql, install php, install mysql module for php
[12:19] <kriebz> kahrytan, the errors= is only for /
[12:19] <kahrytan> What is it
[12:19] <arnisraido> how can i locally configure MX record for domain, without installing bind?
[12:20] <larsemil__> Jowi: no. the problem is that ubuntu is not autostarting the network. i just have to click the panel and pick my network and it starts. but i want this to happen automaticly
[12:20] <arnisraido> for foreign domain, not mine. To allow sendmail to send directly?
[12:20] <TRAX> i thought i had it all working well but once i try to install joomla, it stops due to no SQL connect
[12:20] <keith1234> you want to override what the MX in their DNS says?
[12:20] <kahrytan> kriebz: Will fstab complaign with I turn it off?
[12:20] <arnisraido> yes,
[12:20] <KDan> Ok... this is not clear from the man page... how do I tell tar to extract a file into a specific output directory? --directory? -C? I'm confused
[12:20] <keith1234> i have joomla installed, somwhere...
[12:20] <arnisraido> i am just testing new domains, not yet registered
[12:20] <kriebz> kahrytan, for vfat, use /dev/sdc2 /media/files vfat defaults,utf8,umask=007
[12:20] <Fredle> joomla is nice
[12:20] <Flatline> Hello people, Can someone REccommend a Video editing program for linux?
[12:21] <Jowi> larsemil__, ADSL modem? I was thinking that it's maybe a DHCP problem... can you set a static IP to your NIC (if your modem always give your NIC a fixed address anyway)?
[12:21] <TRAX> liook at tle link i send on the pirvate cannel
[12:21] <kahrytan> umask=007?
[12:21] <arnisraido> what about MX?
[12:21] <kitche> KDan: with -C <directory> so it would be tar -xvf <tar file> -C <output>
[12:21] <kriebz> kahrytan, what's "it"?
[12:21] <KDan> kitche: cheers!
[12:21] <larsemil__> Jowi: but i can connect. it is working. the problem is that its not happening automaticly. the connection is just perfect
[12:21] <colbert> is there a way to see my mouse settings (sensitivity/accel levels) in shell ??
[12:21] <kriebz> kahrytan, it should be group disk, which you should be in
[12:21] <kriebz> kahrytan, or make it 000 if it's a single-user system
[12:21] <kahrytan> kriebz: You arent making sense now
[12:22] <TRAX> - MySQL support  	 Unavailable
[12:22] <TRAX> says joomla
[12:22] <keith1234> colbert: maybe in xorg.conf?
[12:22] <kahrytan> kriebz: Two users, Admin (not root) and User.
[12:22] <kitche> keith1234: joomla is probbaly in the apache doc root most likely
[12:22] <keith1234> TRAX: pastebin 'dpkg -l | grep -i mysql'
[12:22] <kriebz> kahrytan, you asked it fstab would complain if "it" was taken out, I don't know what it is
[12:22] <colbert> keith1234: nope not in there ;/
[12:23] <kahrytan> kriebz: If I turn it off. (external enclosure)
[12:23] <kriebz> kahrytan, root doesn't count, I meant like a friend or relative
[12:23] <Blaze___> i have a problem with wine, is anybody in the mood to help me :) ?
[12:23] <Skreet> What is the default java classpath (i.e. where should I install classes to use)?
[12:23] <kahrytan> kriebz: It is a backup drive
[12:23] <kahrytan> kriebz: I said NOT ROOT.
[12:23] <Flatline> Can someone REccomend A Video editing program please?
[12:23] <petr4> hello. I used to have problems with suspend-to-disk (and I asked here and got no response) after upgrade from 6.10 to 7.04. After 6 hours of searching and experimenting: it works. What is the moral: verify you have linux 2.6.20, enable feisty-backports to update gnome-power-manager, and add resume=/dev/your-swap-device to your grub/menu.lst (some of these steps may not be required). Now going to sleep.
[12:23] <petr4> i hope it helps someone
[12:23] <kahrytan> kriebz: I got two logins, Admin and User logins.
[12:24] <TRAX> see private channel keith
[12:24] <Flatline> Can someone REccomend A Video editing program please
[12:24] <kriebz> kahrytan, fstab just tells Linux where to mount volumes
[12:24] <kitche> kahrytan: you just have to edit fstab so it doesn't say error all the time when trying to mount that device if you remove it
[12:24] <kriebz> kahrytan, you have to unmount something to safely turn it off
[12:24] <Arrick> heya all
[12:24] <Jowi> larsemil__, I've not used network-admin to set up a DSL connection before. but when you do it with pppoeconf then the connection will be automatic at least.
[12:24] <stefg> petr4: wise decision to report back and let it go to the logs
[12:24] <keith1234> TRAX: i don't see a private channel....
[12:24] <Arrick> where is the httpd.conf in apache2 in the new distro?
[12:24] <Arrick> its not in /etc/apache2/ like I am used to
[12:25] <kitche> Arrick: maybe /etc/httpd?
[12:25] <keith1234> TRAX: come to #keith
[12:25] <tyler_d> anyone know of any good mass fax software?
[12:25] <Flatline> Can someone REccomend A Video editing program please??
[12:25] <TRAX> o
[12:25] <kitche> Arrick: I don't like how ubuntu splits all the files up for some stuff so I m not sure exactly
[12:25] <Delirium-NL> Thanks a lot to Keith for helping me out with my problem, i increased the vertical maximum value from 86 to 100 and it let me chose 85 hertz, w0000t!=D
[12:25] <Tom47> !equivalent > Flatline
[12:25] <keith1234> Arrick: apache2.conf
[12:25] <Arrick> kitche, I found it finally
[12:25] <Arrick> thanks
[12:25] <Jowi> larsemil__, an alternative solution is to set up your modem to do the connection, enable dhcp in it and send a static address to your NIC. that way your OS do not need to handle it.
[12:25] <petr4> stefg: it should be norm to report what helped. so i did
[12:25] <keith1234> Delirium-NL no problem
[12:25] <kahrytan> kriebz: I wont keep it on 24/7.  What about dump and pass in fstab?
[12:26] <stefg> Flatline: avidemux, pitivi, kino, cinelerra
[12:26] <weitzman> Supposing I were running dapper, but wanted to use the latest version of a package that's out-of-date in the dapper package DB, but up-to-date in the fiesty and debian unstable DB's. Is it possible to use the other DBs?
[12:26] <kriebz> kahrytan, those are mostly obsolete
[12:26] <petr4> stefg: do you want logs? which?
[12:26] <Flatline> stefg, thankyou.
[12:26] <kriebz> kahrytan, leave them 0
[12:26] <lockd> kitche: what do you mean splits all the files up?
[12:26] <larsemil__> Jowi: but i want my os to handle it. like it does on the three other ubuntucomputers i have. like it did automaticly
[12:26] <keith1234> weitzman: yes but it's tricky
[12:26] <kitche> weitzman: well no unless you want breakages
[12:26] <kahrytan>  / has 1 for pass
[12:26] <weitzman> So only people using Fiesty get the cool stuff :(
[12:26] <TRAX> libdbd-mysql, libdbd-mysql-perl libmysqlclient15-dev
[12:26] <keith1234> not true
[12:26] <kitche> lockd: the configs are in many files instead of one for some programs
[12:26] <stefg> petr4: the logbot will record it, and thus it's searchable in the transscripts
[12:27] <kriebz> kahrytan, if you must know, it's the order they have fsck run on them on a cold boot
[12:27] <kahrytan> kriebz:  WHats with the umask=007 for vfat?
[12:27] <TRAX>  libmysqlclient15off     mysql-client  mysql-client-5.0
[12:27] <Jowi> larsemil__, ok, so try to set up the connection with pppoeconf
[12:27] <Kalisto> anyone know what the bar is called the shows up with "ubuntu... nautilus..." right after i login with the login manager? i want to change it
[12:27] <lockd> kitche: yes, but programs handle the configuration files
[12:27] <kriebz> kahrytan, it makes every file mode 770
[12:27] <lockd> kitche: Ubuntu has little to do with that
[12:27] <kahrytan> kriebz: and that is?
[12:27] <kriebz> kahrytan, since fat has no permissions
[12:28] <keith1234> TRAX: you need php5-mysql
[12:28] <TRAX>  mysql-common      mysql-server    mysql-server-5.0      php5-mysql
[12:28] <keith1234> oh
[12:28] <keith1234> heh
[12:28] <lockd> kitche: it isn't like in Windows, where there is one huge Registry with most programs' configuration
[12:28] <TRAX> all those keith
[12:28] <kahrytan> kriebz: I would like to write to it.
[12:28] <kitche> lockd: well I can install the same program on a different distro and it has one config file
[12:28] <kriebz> kahrytan, http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=unix+file+permissions&btnG=Google+Search
[12:28] <Jowi> larsemil__, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ADSLPPPoE
[12:28] <keith1234> joomla doesn't require posgresql or something, does it?
[12:28] <kitche> keith1234: it wants mysql
[12:28] <TRAX> yes php5-mysql is also there
[12:29] <kitche> keith1234: not many web apps use postgresql
[12:29] <keith1234> sure they do!
[12:29] <TRAX> joom wants mysql
[12:29] <kahrytan> kriebz: That's gibbish to me
[12:29] <kriebz> just try
[12:29] <kriebz> would you
[12:29] <lockd> kitche: well, I guess I don't know.  most services get their own directory to keep them together
[12:29] <kriebz> UNIX is complex
[12:29] <arraista> weitzman, not really. actually only people using gutsy get the cool stuff
[12:29] <kriebz> but it's not hard
[12:29] <kriebz> just get over it
[12:29] <kitche> keith1234: I haven't found one that uses it yet :)
[12:29] <larsemil__> Jowi: but this is really not what i need. my connection is fine i say. the nic is not autostarting, thats my only problem
[12:29] <Jowi> larsemil__, I never needed to use pon/poff as described in the wiki
[12:30] <ebhk> /join #ubuntu-accessibility
[12:30] <arraista> i was trying to test empathy this week but could not easily install missioncontrol
[12:30] <kaizo> anyone know which package includes alsa-config?
[12:30] <weitzman> arraista: I imagine gutsy has everything feisty does, just more
[12:30] <Jowi> larsemil__, I thought you said that your connection was not starting automatically. I assumed your NIC was fine.
[12:30] <kahrytan> kriebz: How about umask for 777
[12:30] <matthew1429> anyone here any good with samba?
[12:30] <TRAX> is postges more easy to get things running?
[12:30] <kriebz> kahrytan, no, it's backwords
[12:30] <kitche> TRAX: it's more sql like
[12:30] <keith1234> kitche: we have gallery2, drupal, horde, roundcube, egroupware, all running on postgres
[12:30] <larsemil__> Jowi: missunderstood eachother i guess. the connection is just perfect but it/the nic is not autostarting. i have to do two mouseclicks every time
[12:30] <kriebz> kahrytan, bit in the mask that are 1 are 0 in the permissions
[12:31] <Arrick> whats the command to restart apache2?
[12:31] <kriebz> apache2ctl restart
[12:31] <keith1234> kaizo: alsa-base ?
[12:31] <kahrytan> kriebz: i asked what umask for 777 is
[12:31] <Arrick> uhmm, kriebz command not gui
[12:31] <kitche> keith1234: drupal might since it needs a stronger database but mysql is the standard at least right now so a lot use mysql
[12:31] <arraista> weitzman: right. the problem starts when what you want is in the "just more" category
[12:31] <TRAX> http://www1.plasticmine.net/CMS/installation/index.php
[12:31] <keith1234> TRAX: definitely not
[12:31] <georgy28> Arrick : sudo /init.d/apache restart
[12:31] <TRAX> thats the prob
[12:31] <Arrick> thanks
[12:31] <kriebz> Arrick, that is a command, not a GUI
[12:31] <keith1234> kitche: oh, definitely. few things *require* postgres. but lots of things *work* with it
[12:32] <Jowi> larsemil__, have you installed network-manager-gnome or something like that?
[12:32] <Arrick> command not found georgy28
[12:32] <georgy28> Arrick : /etc/init.d/apache restart
[12:32] <larsemil__> Jowi: i have the one that is autoinstalled
[12:32] <kriebz> kahrytan, 000 would make perms 777
[12:32] <keith1234> TRAX: that's odd
[12:32] <TRAX> yes it is odd
[12:32] <TRAX> http://www1.plasticmine.net/info.php
[12:32] <kahrytan> kriebz: Can I edit fstab before restart?
[12:32] <TRAX> also look at that
[12:33] <carolyn_> enlightenment is driving me nuts...
[12:33] <kriebz> kahrytan, you can edit it whenever you want
[12:33] <carolyn_> nothing about it is intuitive
[12:33] <kriebz> carolyn_,  then don'y use e
[12:33] <weitzman> arraista: I'd totally cool with installing feisty or even gutsy on my other machine if linux could work with my darn wireless card, but that's a whole different tale of woe
[12:33] <kitche> keith1234: maybe the new drupal uses postgres I tried it a few months ago and only could find mysql option myself, but most groupware does use postgres at least from what I seen but I was mostly talking about CMS's
[12:33] <clayg> nothing "bad" about having KDE as well right? My kids like KDE
[12:33] <kitche> keith1234: since drupal is more of a framework then a CMS
[12:33] <matthew1429> Im trying to connect samba to Vista, and I "see" the share but when i enter the correct info for login/pass it says "login unsuccessful"
[12:33] <kriebz> rofl
[12:33] <TRAX> far as i understand phpinfo says that sql is configured
[12:33] <Moduliz0r> hi
[12:34] <TRAX> http://www1.plasticmine.net/info.php
[12:34] <Moduliz0r> is there any good media library programs for Ubuntu?
[12:34] <carolyn_> kriebz, i don't think i'm going to...i assumed a window manager wouldn't change so much about the underlying interface...
[12:34] <keith1234> matthew1429 check event viewer in windows
[12:34] <Jowi> larsemil__, can you pastebin your /etc/network/interfaces ?
[12:34] <keith1234> Moduliz0r "media"?
[12:34] <arraista> weitzman: or if your wireless card worked with linux
[12:34] <Moduliz0r> as in music and possibly video
[12:34] <kitche> TRAX: try the one that is in php itself
[12:34] <kriebz> CarinArr, it doesn't, but a lot e carries a lot of bagage
[12:34] <kitche> TRAX: since that does not give much information
[12:34] <keith1234> rhythmbox? amarok?
[12:34] <matthew1429> keith1234: event viewer?
[12:35] <Moduliz0r> amarok... ive heard of that
[12:35] <Moduliz0r> ill try it
[12:35] <arraista> i do not have any wireless cards. i hope that when i get one, it will work on linux
[12:35] <TRAX> the one in php itself?
[12:35] <kriebz> Moduliz0r, it's for KDE, iirc
[12:35] <khin> hi anyone have experience running vncserver on ubuntu. im not sure what im doing. can i start vncserver and then view my own computer with vncclient in a window?
[12:35] <keith1234> matthew1429 event viewer. almost as useful as /var/log, but not quite
[12:35] <TRAX> wher is that keith?
[12:35] <larsemil__> Jowi: http://pastebin.ca/545948
[12:35] <weitzman> arraista: Touche :). It's just that it's my old comp that I can afford to screw around with, and I don't want to buy new hardware for it
[12:35] <kriebz> Moduliz0r, just check the Add/Remove applet for apps in the Multimedia  or Sound and Video catagory
[12:35] <Moduliz0r> k thanks
[12:35] <TRAX> from commandline msql is working fine
[12:36] <k0rnz> hello can someone tell me what program i can use to convert my home movies which are in avi format to burn to DVD?
[12:36] <arraista> weitzman: by the way, does your card work with edgy (or whatever release you're using now)?
[12:36] <khin> im just trying to test it out
[12:36] <keith1234> TRAX: it's.... in windows?
[12:36] <TRAX> it just refuses to work with php5
[12:36] <TRAX> no on ubuntu
[12:36] <k0rnz> how do convert avi and burn to DVD so it will play in DVD player?
[12:36] <weitzman> arraista: No, it doesn't work with any linux, except possibly kernel 2.4 if you can find and compile the right drivers
[12:36] <Jowi> larsemil__, that's the problem. eth0 is not set to start automatic. and it appear last in the list as well.
[12:36] <stefg> !k3b | k0rnz
[12:36] <ubotu> k0rnz: k3b is a feature-rich and user-friendly burning application for KDE (and, as all KDE applications, works fine on GNOME). For a guide, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/K3BHowto
[12:36] <keith1234> TRAX: you installed the packaged joomla?
[12:36] <weitzman> arraista: Even ndiswrapper is foiled for me, at least
[12:36] <TRAX> ubuntu 7.04 PHP5 MySql5
[12:36] <kitche> TRAX: you make a file that can execute php code this is what you want <?php phpinfo() ?> put that in a file called test.php and it should give you more info then zend
[12:37] <Jowi> larsemil__, well, it says auto eth0 but the order is weird
[12:37] <larsemil__> Jowi: so i put it in top of the list in the same way as for eth1?
[12:37] <arraista> weitzman: oh, now i understand. i did not notice that you were talkin about your _other_ machine...
[12:37] <TRAX> kitchy http://www1.plasticmine.net/info.php  that IS phpinfo()?>
[12:38] <Jowi> larsemil__, yes. it should look like the eth1 entry. put it right after "lo"
[12:38] <Jowi> larsemil__, I hope that will fix it for you
[12:38] <khin> nobody has used vncserver huh
[12:38] <larsemil__> Jowi: we will see. brb reboot
[12:38] <Moduliz0r> i have before
[12:38] <Moduliz0r> but
[12:38] <Moduliz0r> I find it slow
[12:39] <Arrick> I have the following errors with apache2 http://pastebin.ca/index.php after setting up the httpd.conf, can someone help me out here? the httpd.conf is at http://pastebin.ca/545959
[12:39] <tyuiop> is there any particular application in existance for keeping records of installed packages and their specific installation and usage options/modifications?
[12:39] <stefg> !info vino | khin
[12:39] <ubotu> khin: vino: VNC server for GNOME. In component main, is optional. Version 2.18.1-0ubuntu1 (feisty), package size 202 kB, installed size 2184 kB
[12:39] <weitzman> arraista: I'm not sure about the machine I'm currently using (I use VMware to get linux) but I have high hope, 'cause its an integrated dell wireless card
[12:39] <Moduliz0r> tyuiop: I used to make a Openoffice document and keep track of what I installed and uninstalled
[12:39] <TRAX> i have been looking into the extensions setting in PHP.ini
[12:39] <Jowi> khin, the only way to export your current desktop in VNC is to actually use x11vnc instead of the standard one
[12:39] <keith1234> khin: i've used vncserver
[12:39] <Jowi> !info x11vnc
[12:39] <ubotu> x11vnc: VNC server which uses your current X11 session. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.8.2-1 (feisty), package size 438 kB, installed size 1104 kB
[12:39] <tyuiop> Moduliz0r, this what I'm afraid of :-)
[12:39] <TRAX> but nothing seems to work
[12:40] <lockd> tyuiop: aptitude, synaptic
[12:40] <kitche> TRAX: seems like it has no mysql support at least from what I have seen
[12:40] <arraista> weitzman: yup, pretty much wil do it. i don't think dell changed the hardware specs a lot on their recent ubuntu series, did they?
[12:41] <TRAX> i'm asking myself if there is ANYONE who has php5 + mysql running propper on a 7.04 box
[12:41] <tyuiop> lockd, I mean situation when I install 3rd party app somewhere under /opt and also want to write down specific options about it's usage, caveats etc?
[12:41] <heitor> hi
[12:41] <weitzman> arraista: I dunno. I don't have an official dell linux machine
[12:41] <ajakkes> Hey
[12:41] <Jowi> khin, hope that helps with what you're trying to do
[12:41] <TRAX> what doe i need to config in php.ini to make it work then??
[12:41] <arraista> right, i was just wondering...
[12:41] <Moduliz0r> aw cool
[12:41] <phantom_> adept is for KDE what sinaptic is for Gnome?
[12:41] <Moduliz0r> amarok is great
[12:41] <ajakkes> I got a problem with an usb storage device
[12:42] <keith1234> TRAX:..... there's no MySQL section in that info.php
[12:42] <TRAX> o
[12:42] <TRAX> in mine is
[12:42] <lockd> tyuiop: if it installs manual or info pages you can just use that
[12:42] <TRAX> oo sorry
[12:42] <TRAX> keith
[12:42] <larsemil__> Jowi: nope. had to do a ifdown eth0 and then ifup eth0
[12:42] <arraista> thinking out loud, y'know? anyway, i don't think they would change the specs a lot. i think it would cost too much to do that
[12:42] <tyuiop> lockd, unfortunately it is too much of hassle to read info every time
[12:43] <keith1234> TRAX: there should be a section 'mysql' between 'mime_magic' and 'openssl'
[12:43] <b_e_n_z> i have a core 2 duo dell laptop with the ipw3894 intel wireless chipset... i tried to enable roaming + WPA, never connects... is this a known problem?  i am running 7.04
[12:43] <HungryCakes> I'm having an issue with Azureus, it downloads, but only at a really slow rate and only for 5-10 seconds at a time.  I'm using the version from Sourceforge, not from Add/Remove/  All of my ports are configured and forwarded from my router.  Downloads also work fine on my other computer (this one).
[12:43] <TRAX> whow do i config PHP5 then?
[12:43] <phantom_>  adept is for KDE what sinaptic is for Gnome?
[12:43] <keith1234> TRAX: joomla isn't crazy. you don't have mysql enabled ;-)
[12:43] <lockd> tyuiop: well then Moduliz0r's solution is pretty much the only one
[12:43] <TRAX> i asumed that ubunto would make it work instantly
[12:43] <kitche> arraista: they are a bit different all the hardare is supported by open source drivers and they work good
[12:44] <ajakkes> anyone known to usb storage device problems. I think my log says it has a problem with the I/O
[12:44] <tyuiop> lockd, oic, just wanted to make sure
[12:44] <keith1234> TRAX: it should
[12:44] <keith1234> TRAX: restart apache?
[12:44] <lockd> tyuiop: just don't try to get that many third party programs
[12:44] <TRAX> do i need to reinstall php5?
[12:44] <phantom_> how doo I set force wersion inkde?
[12:44] <nofxx> how to adduser ... as super user? on the bash..... I always forget this. gonna write down somewhere this time....
[12:44] <TRAX> i restarted all
[12:44] <tyler_d> samba configuration tool???
[12:44] <tyuiop> lockd, the programs in question are requirements of my current boss
[12:44] <mikegmtech> do there happen to be any wow players that could help TB an installation?
[12:44] <keith1234> nofxx: adduser keith
[12:44] <arraista> kitche, good to know. so b_e_n_z's probably isn't one of those...
[12:44] <keith1234> nofxx: sudo adduser keith
[12:45] <nofxx> keith1234: but how to keith be a su ?
[12:45] <nofxx> keith1234: a sudoer ?
[12:45] <keith1234> nofxx: /etc/sudoers
[12:45] <kitche> TRAX: TRAX you have php5-mysql installed right?
[12:45] <lockd> tyuiop: oh, like what?
[12:45] <phantom_> how doo I set force wersion in kde?
[12:45] <nofxx> keith1234: dam.. i could swear that there was a way on the adduser command
[12:45] <TRAX> yes i have php5-mysql installed
[12:45] <TRAX> shal i reboot the box?
[12:45] <nofxx> keith1234: tnx .. gona try
[12:46] <kitche> TRAX: might have to restart apache

[12:48] <arraista> neither nvidia nor ati cards seem to have good open source drivers. is that right?
[12:48] <kriebz> weswh-work, there are applets in GNOME that do that.  There's an old program called gkrellm that's kinda cool
[12:48] <TRAX> well i'll try a full boot (windows style) LOL
[12:48] <ajakkes> Noboby is gonna help me :(
[12:48] <phantom_>  how doo I set force wersion in kde?
[12:48] <kriebz> phantom_, version of what?
[12:48] <krylen> weswh-work: gkrellm is still king for real time graphical monitoring of..  everything
[12:48] <keith1234> ajakkes: what's wrong?

[12:52] <Samuel> I just installed Ubuntu 7.04 i386 on my laptop. I have an s-video cable attached from the laptop to another monitor. How do I tell the OS to do a dual screen so I have video on both screens?
[12:52] <keith1234> ajakkes: not good
[12:52] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech: do you have the nvidia drivers installed and your xorg config file edited correctly?
[12:52] <HungryCakes> I'm having an issue with Azureus, it downloads, but only at a really slow rate and only for 5-10 seconds at a time.  I'm using the version from Sourceforge, not from Add/Remove/  All of my ports are configured and forwarded from my router.  Downloads also work fine on my other computer (this one).
[12:52] <keith1234> kneath: pastebin it
[12:52] <TorvusLinalds> i'm running feisty and i have lsusb
[12:52] <kahrytan> kriebz: You enjoy making mistakes dont you
[12:52] <kriebz> no
[12:52] <kitche> Samuel: what's your card?
[12:52] <kriebz> I rather detest them
[12:52] <kneath> keith1234: I did look @ the link: http://pastie.caboo.se/68454
[12:53] <kriebz> you on the other hand seem to like relying on other people to tell you stuff
[12:53] <kahrytan> kriebz: I add the lines as you said.
[12:53] <jx> is there any way to get vlc to stop skipping on dvd playback ?
[12:53] <mikegmtech> I am running a Radeon AIW 9600 video card. I grabbed the ati drivers.
[12:53] <Samuel> kitche : Sec.
[12:53] <TRAX> http://www1.plasticmine.net/info.php no change at all
[12:53] <kriebz> kahrytan, send me the output of mount again, please
[12:53] <keith1234> jx: get a faster computer? ;-)
[12:53] <Samuel> kitche : Actually, where in the OS do I look at my vid card profile? haha
[12:53] <kneath> I installed it on OSX alright with ports... but ubuntu seems to be a no-go :x
[12:53] <TRAX> lol @keith
[12:53] <ajakkes> could be the device (new) is passed away?
[12:53] <keith1234> TRAX: these are all installed using apt?
[12:53] <lockd> HungryCakes: the only bittorrent client that works for me is KTorrent
[12:53] <NeoGeo64> Help... should I put Ubuntu or Vista on my new computer?
[12:53] <kahrytan> kriebz: I am not logged in as user
[12:53] <jx> keith1234; i don't think that's the problem :p
[12:53] <nixrider> hehe
[12:53] <kitche> Samuel: type glxinfo in the terminal but it helps to how what your card is so you use the correct driver
[12:53] <kriebz> as what user?
[12:53] <lockd> NeoGeo64: both
[12:54] <TRAX> all installed using aptitude
[12:54] <keith1234> kneath: broken mencoder package.... hmmm
[12:54] <p1ls> anyone recomends any ubuntu books, or programing, security, hacking?
[12:54] <keith1234> apt-get update
[12:54] <kneath> I tried that one... same deal
[12:54] <kneath> i'll try to day
[12:54] <kahrytan> kriebz: But tty 1 says device doesnt exist
[12:54] <HungryCakes> lockd: Does Ktorrent allow RSS downloads?
[12:54] <NeoGeo64> lockd: I'm not a fan of dual booting.  I like to dedicate one machine to one OS.
[12:54] <TRAX> hm update
[12:54] <TRAX> one sec
[12:54] <Jowi> larsemil__, is the modem a USB modem or a standalone one?
[12:54] <Samuel> kitche : Give me 2 mins, ill find out.
[12:54] <kneath> nope, same deal after apt-get update
[12:54] <NeoGeo64> lockd: Saves on rebooting time and such.
[12:55] <keith1234> TRAX: i can't /msg or /query, i'm not registered
[12:55] <larsemil__> Jowi: its a ethernet cable one
[12:55] <mikegmtech> NeoGeo64; If I have an ATI vid card, should I use nvidia drivers?
[12:55] <kriebz> kahrytan, you might want to add the noauto option if the drive isn't on when you boot
[12:55] <Khrajin> So, what does it mean when i put in a kubuntu cd and it tries to load but gets about 10% in and freezes?
[12:55] <Jowi> larsemil__, I would suggest a bug report. I see that others are having similar issues.
[12:55] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech:  No, you shouldn't.  Do you have an ATI video card?
[12:55] <kahrytan> noauto?
[12:55] <kriebz> kahrytan, also, if you plug stuff in in different orders, it might break
[12:55] <ajakkes> keith1234: nothing to do about it?
[12:55] <ajakkes> format orso?
[12:55] <kriebz> but I know of no better way
[12:55] <mikegmtech> NeoGeo64: yes. RADEON Allinwonder 9600 is the model
[12:55] <lockd> NeoGeo64: um, Xen?
[12:56] <Scunizi> Any one good enough at PHP to discover a syntax error in one line?

[12:56] <mikegmtech> I did download the drivers and edit the xorg file according the the installer guides
[12:56] <keith1234> Scunizi: sure
[12:56] <kahrytan> sdc1 before sdc2?
[12:56] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech: And what drivers are you using? NVIDIA's or ATI's?
[12:56] <mikegmtech> ATI
[12:56] <ticnailer69> does anyone know where to download beryl?

[12:56] <fuzzyegui> hi guys, i'm new to ubuntu studio, and i'm trying to add the medibuntu repositories through the terminal. sudo is asking for a password, but i have no clue what it is. is there a default root pwd that can be used to run sudo in the terminal?
[12:56] <Scunizi> keith1234, thanks.  I've pasted the line to a different paste bin.. http://p.opsat.net/v/ebadit
[12:57] <kneath> keith1234: do you think there's a specific source I need to add? I'm using debian-multimedia.org right now for all this video encoding stuff
[12:57] <NeoGeo64> ticnailer69: www.microsoft.com/downloads
[12:57] <kahrytan> kriebz: Their /dev/sdc1 etc
[12:57] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech: I don't know then. Sounds like permissions may be awrya?
[12:57] <Tom47> fuzzyegui: its yr password you need
[12:57] <kriebz> I give up
[12:57] <kriebz> sorry, kahrytan, I'm really sorry I confused you
[12:57] <ticnailer69> thankyou
[12:57] <fuzzyegui> tom47> i've tried it, it doesn't work
[12:57] <NeoGeo64> Ok... I need to find a keygen for Ubuntu. Also how do I activate it
[12:58] <mikegmtech> NeoGeo64: hmm...wouldn't that be more likely to cause a program error rather than a system lockup?
[12:58] <lockd> NeoGeo64: or some other virtualizer, like VMWare
[12:58] <Samuel> kitche : It's a Mobile Intel 915GM/GMS,910GML Express
[12:58] <fuzzyegui> just tried it again, and it worked. thanks a million! i really appreciate it!
[12:58] <kitche> Samuel: ok is the driver your using intel or does it say i810
[12:58] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech:  It could cause a system lockup if it is trying to access something over and over and won't stop.
[12:58] <Jowi> larsemil__, you can try something though. you can create a script that run ifup eth0, put it in /etc/init.d and put a symlink to it in /etc/rc2.d with the name S99ifup (or similar). it's a hack but might work.
[12:59] <caravel> hi all
[12:59] <IdahoEv> Weird network config problem: LAN is ok, but any attempt to ping an external server results in "Network is unreachable" as if eth0 were not configured at all.   I've put my config info and the output of ifconfig in a paste:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24500/
[12:59] <keith1234> Scunizi: ok, hold on
[12:59] <Samuel> kitche : In glxinfo?
[12:59] <mikegmtech> NeoGeo64: I see. I'll go search for permissions needed to run WoW then and see if it turns anything up. Thanks.
[12:59] <keith1234> kneath: i dunno
[12:59] <Scunizi> keith1234, thanks.
[12:59] <kitche> Samuel: yeah it should tell you
[01:00] <SudoBash> does anyone know a good free program to convert DICOM to jpg/bmp?
[01:00] <keith1234> Scunizi: try this http://p.opsat.net/v/06imzs
[01:00] <kneath> alright, well thanks for looking.. I'll keep stumbling around a bit to see if I can fix it
[01:00] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech: I could be wrong so don't pull your hair out trying to fix it by correcting or changing too many permissions.
[01:00] <kahrytan> kriebz: What do i do
[01:00] <keith1234> SudoBash: dunno what DICOM is, but... gimp?
[01:00] <kriebz> does nothing happen when you plug in the drive
[01:00] <kriebz> boot with out it
[01:01] <kriebz> then log in to gnome
[01:01] <kriebz> then plug it in
[01:01] <lakcaj> SudoBash, imagemagick's convert utility
[01:01] <lockd> NeoGeo64: mikegmtech: could there perhaps be a way to attach gdb to it and have it log syscalls?
[01:01] <Samuel> kitche : Its Nvidia
[01:01] <Samuel> kitche : Intel i mean lol

[01:01] <mikegmtech> lockd: not sure I follow you there.
[01:01] <kitche> Samuel: ok see what it says in /etc/X11/xorg.conf real quick want to see if your using the intel or i810 in that
[01:01] <SudoBash> thanks lakcaj
[01:01] <mikegmtech> lockd: nvm...love google :)
[01:01] <kitche> does any of you know the docs team irc channel?

[01:09] <brianski> hmm
[01:09] <kingcobra> does anybody know about the iwconfig command i just showed here

[01:10] <brianski> couldn't it be as easy as not running programs with nicelevel > 5
[01:10] <Jowi> IdahoEv, since you can ping the router your connection works.
[01:10] <sienem> Hello - can't get my linksys wireless network card to work in my laptop - what's the best cheap wireless network card that'll work natively?
[01:10] <mikegmtech> IdahoEv: Actually nm...that would be for dns issues. My bad
[01:10] <HungryCakes> I'm getting an issue with the mouse wheel, I'm using a KVM switch, everything else is working and the middle mouse button clicks, it's just unable to scroll.
[01:10] <Jowi> IdahoEv, might be a faulty router. try to connect the cable to a different port on the router
[01:10] <Scunizi> keith1234, Opera, FF & Konq all display the same error for me.. Do you not get the same thing?
[01:11] <mikegmtech> IdahoEv: have you tried a traceroute to that IP?
[01:11] <IdahoEv> Jowl:  the same ping command works fine on other boxes connected to the same router.   on the ubuntu box it gives me "network is unreachable".   look at the bottom of the paste.
[01:11] <kitche> IdahoEv: you might actually have a dns issue are you pinging by domain or by ip to the outside
[01:11] <Jowi> IdahoEv, that's my point.
[01:11] <keith1234> Scunizi: i had a different error, but when i reloaded i got what you got
[01:11] <IdahoEv> kitche: pinging by IP
[01:11] <Sam6464> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24506/                 i need a bit of help loggin in

[01:12] <Jowi> IdahoEv, you can ping the router. so the connection between your PC and router works fine. it's the "routing" that does not work properly.
[01:12] <mikegmtech> IdahoEv: what is the router model?
[01:12] <IdahoEv> mikegmtech:  linksys
[01:12] <vakosel> hi gents! is it possible to download java jdk 1.6? dont forget went open !

[01:13] <dsphere> hi im running edgy and my screen wont lock
[01:13] <IdahoEv> mikegmtech:  all other boxen on this lan (20+ machines) work just fine through the router
[01:13] <dsphere> my hotkey wont work, and my screensaver wont activaye
[01:13] <Scunizi> keith1234, It may have happened when I added some text to line 91.. see it here http://p.opsat.net/v/plwecm
[01:13] <dsphere> why plss???
[01:13] <mikegmtech> IdahoEv: When I was working for an ISP, a very large number of linksys routers lost the ability to route properly and required a firmware update to fix. Might consider it.
[01:13] <hollowlife1987> hi, i currently lease a dedicated ubuntu server and i was was wondering is there any ill effects that could possibly happen if i follow the upgrade guide on the site (6.10 to 7.04)
[01:13] <Jowi> IdahoEv, check if you have IP collisions since it is a static address.
[01:14] <IdahoEv> Jowl: ahh, that's a good thought
[01:14] <pike_> hollowlife1987: if you dont have physical access it might be messy. 98% of time it is ok. but there is a chance of baddness
[01:14] <Scunizi> hollowlife1987, if you lease it the leasing company should be doing the upgrades.  I wouldn't go from 6.06 to 7.04
[01:14] <kingcobra> mikegmtech, do you understand the iwconfig command i typed here
[01:14] <hollowlife1987> ok thank you

[01:18] <sienem> looking for a good cheap pcmcia wireless NIC for my ubuntu laptop - any suggestions?
[01:18] <kahrytan> How do I change mount options so user accounts can automount my external hdd?
[01:18] <IdahoEv> okay, it's not an IP conflict, I just tried two definite clean IPs.  ping doesn't even send a packet if I'm targeting an external IP, it just returns "Network is unreachable".   traceroute does similar
[01:18] <kingcobra> __mikem, any idea about the command
[01:18] <Terzo> i downloaded a theme from gnome look, and extracted it to ~/.themes.  When I went to install it with the theme manager, it told me "the file format is invalid".  Am i doing something wrong?
[01:18] <IdahoEv> Tom47: Yes, it's the DNS I am trying to ping
[01:18] <__mikem> can someone take care of this rolnxyz character, his join/parts are becomming excessive
[01:18] <Tom47> ok pings from here ok
[01:18] <Sam6464> kahrytan: yeah gnome get stuck
[01:19] <IdahoEv> and pings okay from my mac, which is pluggen into the same LAN
[01:19] <kahrytan> Sam6464: Did you log into xterm session and start gnome using the terminal?
[01:19] <defjux> hi my screen wont lock for some reason.. running feisty
[01:19] <olujicz> Is there any how to for LIRC to work?
[01:19] <Sam6464> kahrytan: cant, i cannot log into anything, i tried all the session selections
[01:20] <defjux> why cant i lock my screen using screensavers or hotkey? why wont screensavers work?
[01:20] <Tom47> IdahoEv: has it worked previously?
[01:20] <kahrytan> Sam6464: Darn. almost sounded familiar
[01:20] <IdahoEv> if I ping anything off the LAN, I get the same result I would get if I had run "/etc/init.d/networking stop" first.  The box thinks the network is down entirely.   But if I ping on-LAN, it works fine
[01:20] <Jowi> IdahoEv, did you try a different port on the router/switch?
[01:20] <Sam6464> kahrytan: oh well, thanks anyway
[01:20] <IdahoEv> Tom47:  yes, two weeks ago it worked on this LAN fine.   Then it spent a while connected to a different LAN and was today reconnected to this one.
[01:21] <IdahoEv> Jowl: I will try that
[01:21] <pike_> IdahoEv: what does route say?
[01:21] <defjux> why wont my screensavers work so i can lock my screen?
[01:21] <ThamHKI> Please, i havem one problem in instalation, when are select and install softwares, in 85% no work more. in status say update-manager-corel install. help me!
[01:21] <kingcobra> Jowi, do you know about the iwconfig command i typed
[01:21] <bnid> could someone tell me if there is a driver for the logitech 510 media remote.  This is the only reason why i don't switch to ubuntu right away
[01:22] <hinesd> ey everyone i have ubuntu installed with gnome how do i get the KDE on here too?
[01:22] <pike_> defjux: i dunno much about gnome screensaver. id switch back to xscreensaver on principal
[01:22] <IdahoEv> Jowl: same result on a different port
[01:22] <Jowi> kingcobra, no wireless experience in linux I'm afraid. I just installed network-manager-gnome and it worked automatically for me after I rebooted.

[01:22] <__mikem> !kubuntu-desktop | hinesd
[01:22] <ubotu> hinesd: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.

[01:23] <pike_> hinesd: nah
[01:23] <hinesd> i did it before but i cna't find the walkthrough again
[01:23] <pike_> hinesd: sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

[01:24] <reduz> QUESTION: Any idea why freshly installed ubuntu, with beryl installed with proper themes lacks windows borders?
[01:24] <Buttonboy> does the xbox live vison camera work with ubuntu?
[01:24] <reduz> (ubuntu 7.04)
[01:24] <kitche> reduz: umm emerald didn't start
[01:24] <pike_> IdahoEv: that'd be a problem
[01:24] <kitche> reduz: your suppose to start it with beryl-manager
[01:24] <IdahoEv> pike_: I've not used route before, so I'm not sure if that output is normal
[01:24] <stm502> hinesd sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop
[01:24] <hinesd> I'm getting a hard-on thinking about getting kde back
[01:24] <hinesd> thanks dude
[01:24] <IdahoEv> pike_: what should it look like?
[01:24] <reduz> kitche, i do, but get no window borders
[01:24] <hinesd> i've had about 5 reinstalls in the last 4 days
[01:25] <puff> Hm, my suspend-to-disk stopped working when I upgraded to feisty.
[01:25] <ThamHKI> Please, i havem one problem in instalation, when are select and install softwares, in 85% no work more. in status say update-manager-corel install. help me!
[01:25] <gemidjy> is there a Howto for installing Ubuntu Feisty from WIndows ?
[01:25] <hinesd> mmm I need that delicious Beryl
[01:25] <hinesd> and it doens't work nice on gnome for some reason
[01:25] <puff> I know that bugs are open and people are working on it, but meanwhile, the last time I suspended it didn't unsuspsend, and 2GB of disk went away.  I need to reclaim that 2GB of disk, I'm running out!
[01:25] <bnid> has anyone made their ubuntu box into a media server

[01:26] <reduz> emerald: Could not acquire decoration manager selection on screen 0 display ":0.0"
[01:26] <reduz> why is that?
[01:26] <kahrytan> How do I change mount options so user accounts can automount my external hdd?
[01:27] <pike_> IdahoEv: manually something like 1) sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.0.1 2) route add default gw 192.168.0.1 3) route add -net 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 dev eth0    <-- but i dont think youll need step three
[01:27] <pike_> IdahoEv: oops thats my gateway youll change that
[01:27] <gemidjy> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromWindows this is obsolete for Feisty, isn't it ?
[01:28] <pike_> IdahoEv: ok change the ifconfig eth0 ipaddress to whatever and the default gatway to your gateway. sorry i typed that too fast
[01:28] <sebas_> locate command is awesome
[01:28] <pike_> IdahoEv: ive never had an ubuntu system i had to set that up on though
[01:28] <__Ace__> f
[01:28] <kingcobra> pike_, do you know about the iwconfig command i typed
[01:28] <nexousNET> Hi
[01:29] <pike_> kingcobra: can you retype it?
[01:29] <puff> Anybody know where the hibernate-to-disk files live?
[01:29] <kingcobra> sudo iwconfig ath0 essid 'house 34' key s:aterm
[01:29] <Frogzoo> puff: I believe it's stored on swap
[01:29] <pike_> kingcobra: for wep?
[01:30] <kingcobra> yeah its wep alrite

[01:30] <reduz> what has to be done about this?
[01:31] <noble> Is anyone familiar with the OpenVPN plugin for NetworkManager?
[01:31] <lito> hola

[01:32] <lito> ???
[01:32] <stm502> ...
[01:32] <Scunizi> keith1234, yep
[01:33] <lito> ah ok
[01:33] <keith1234> lito: /j #ubuntu-es
[01:33] <lito> gracias
[01:33] <pike_> kingcobra: sorry man
[01:33] <keith1234> Scunizi: fix that yet?
[01:33] <kingcobra> ok
[01:33] <eegore> has xen matured enough to where it is usable?
[01:33] <keith1234> eegore: kriebz has been playing with xen, but he's AFK it seems
[01:33] <Tom47> gemidjy: yes it does look like one reference there should be changed to feisty http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/ but pls note i have not used this
[01:33] <Scunizi> keith1234, nope.. I had pasted another line to you earlier... did you see it?
[01:34] <caravel> how can I force the order of two panels which are both located at the bottom of the desktop ?
[01:34] <ZeXr0> do you know if BOINC can be in a daemon to autorun at startup ?
[01:34] <keith1234> Scunizi: negative
[01:34] <Scunizi> keith1234, hang on I'll do it to pastbin
[01:34] <eegore>  keith1234 tnx
[01:34] <simplyw00x> is there a way to map a key not recognised by xev?
[01:35] <IdahoEv> pike_: well, now it is at least trying to ping, but the packets are coming back "destination host unreachable"
[01:35] <IdahoEv> ahh, got it
[01:35] <IdahoEv> pike_: thanks much.   now why doesn't it get the routing table correct when I do /etc/init.d/networking restart?
[01:35] <dekay> Does anyone know the solution to why my beryl gets this ugly effect on the borders of windows?
[01:35] <jin> hello, how do you install fonts on UBuntu?
[01:35] <Scunizi> keith1234, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24508/
[01:35] <mikegmtech> what's the equivalent to windows taskamanger in ubuntu?
[01:36] <superchode> i'm trying to get sound out of my S/PDIF port on my NF4 motherboard... set up a .asoundrc config file in the /etc/ directory specifying hw:0,2 for default output... but i'm still getting no love
[01:36] <simplyw00x> mikegmtech: gnome-system-monitor
[01:36] <b_e_n_z> i have a core 2 duo dell laptop with the ipw3894 intel wireless chipset... i tried to enable roaming + WPA, never connects... is this a known problem?  i am running 7.04
[01:36] <Scunizi> mikegmtech, type "top" from the command line
[01:36] <superchode> any digital output guys in here?
[01:36] <Frogzoo> simplyw00x: if 'showkey -s' shows the key, you can use setkeycodes
[01:36] <noble> mickegmtech, for GUI look for Systems Monitor
[01:36] <Nilzzzen> hi there
[01:36] <superchode> a guide on the ubuntu forums says that IEC958 playback AC97 must be off or muted... but i can't adjust it in alsa, it's locked on
[01:37] <Scunizi> mikegmtech, the other way is to right mouse click in your upper panel and choose "add" then pick "system monitor"
[01:37] <dekay> Is there a beryl wiki, if so can someone link me?
[01:37] <pike_> IdahoEv: dunno. maybe a sudo dhclient eth0  will work
[01:37] <mikegmtech> Scunizi: got it. Thanks :)
[01:37] <kingcobra> can somebody tell me what command would properly connect you to a wireless netwrok
[01:37] <simplyw00x> Frogzoo: and if it won't?
[01:37] <keith1234> Sunizi: what's line 313?
[01:37] <keith1234> Scunizi: ^^
[01:37] <IdahoEv> pike_: so, it works now, but if I issue "/etc/init.d/networking restart" it breaks and I have to issue those three commands again to get it to work.   Why does it fark up the routing table when I restart networking, and how do I fix that?
[01:38] <stm502> 2dekay http://wiki.beryl-project.org/wiki/Main_Page
[01:38] <dekay> Thanks
[01:38] <Scunizi> keith1234, 313 is the line that it errors on.  But it didn't start showing up until after I changed 91 (last paste)
[01:38] <stm502> use google :P
[01:38] <Jowi> !wifi | kingcobra (since you don't have any luck with answers today :))
[01:38] <ubotu> kingcobra (since you don't have any luck with answers today :)): Wireless documentation can be found at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs
[01:39] <keith1234> Scunizi: paste line 313 and a few lines before it
[01:39] <Scunizi> keith1234, I should mention this is a Joomla CMS packagee...
[01:39] <pike_> IdahoEv: i have no idea. the routing table is something ive never had to worry about in ubuntu only other stripped down distros like slackware.
[01:39] <Scunizi> keith1234,  ok..
[01:39] <matthew1429> im having the toughest time with samba, has anyone successfully gotten a vista computer to work with ubuntu samba
[01:39] <keith1234> vista is client, ubuntu is server?
[01:39] <IdahoEv> pike_: i wonder if my /etc/networking/interfaces has something wrong with it.  But it looks okay to me.
[01:39] <keith1234> or the other way around?
[01:39] <matthew1429> keith1234: yes
[01:39] <mikegmtech> that system monitor doesn't kill processes very easily
[01:39] <matthew1429> vista client, ntlm2 fix
[01:39] <matthew1429> It sees the share
[01:40] <keith1234> can anything else connect to the share?
[01:40] <matthew1429> but when i put in correct login and pass
[01:40] <matthew1429> it doesnt work
[01:40] <Scunizi> keith1234, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24509/
[01:40] <keith1234> then the login and pass isn't correct ;-)
[01:40] <kitche> mikegmtech: linux doesn't have a very easy way really
[01:40] <matthew1429> I only have 2 computers
[01:40] <keith1234> what's samba log show?
[01:40] <mikegmtech> kitche: killall works well :)
[01:40] <simplyw00x> kitche: killall -09 is pretty easy ...
[01:40] <Frogzoo> simplyw00x: then it's a kernel issue & not much you can do afaik
[01:40] <matthew1429> samba log?
[01:40] <matthew1429> is that in var
[01:41] <matthew1429> no it isnt
[01:41] <keith1234> Scunizi: change "for an example.)';" to "for an example.');"
[01:41] <simplyw00x> Frogzoo: Is there *anything* I can do? The keys are properly recognised in windows...
[01:41] <Scunizi> keith1234, which line?
[01:41] <Nilzzzen> can anybody tell me a way to edit the xorg.conf? can i only edit it with the sudo command?
[01:41] <ko> Can instruct me on how to get my suspend/hibernate working or direct me to a website that can help? Suspend shuts down the computer properly but it hangs when I try to start up again. Hibernate doesn't shut down the computer at all. I'd settle for just one or the other working.
[01:41] <keith1234> Scunizi line 14 in the pastebin
[01:41] <kitche> mikegmtech: I use kill -9 <process> myself at least I know it's fully killed :)
[01:41] <Frogzoo> simplyw00x: google for your keyboard I guess
[01:41] <blackest> hi i need to run sudo modprobe cx8802 in a script at the end of boot how can i do that?
[01:41] <jfs> hsjdh4 run 4 to sixty
[01:41] <mikegmtech> IdahoEv: I remember working on a Xen server the other day. I don't think those commands you used are saved. To save them I was told you had to edit the /etc/network/interfaces file to make them stick. Otherwise they are lost on network restart
[01:41] <matthew1429> i installed kubuntu hoping that the kde system would have better luck making things happen
[01:41] <kj0ttdeig> how can i disable propietary drivers? i tried one and now ubuntu won't load :/
[01:42] <ace_suares> blackest: can you not just add cx8802 to /etc/modules ?
[01:42] <keith1234> blackest: you don't need sudo in init.d scripts
[01:42] <IdahoEv> mikegmtech:  yes ... the problem is I think I already have my /etc/network/interfaces file configured correctly for that connection
[01:42] <mikegmtech> kitche: yeah that's what I had to do to kill WoW
[01:42] <keith1234> blackest: you can just add it to /etc/modules, too
[01:42] <keith1234> i think
[01:42] <mrsempai>  * #ubuntu #ubuntu-ops :Forwarding to another channel
[01:42] <blackest> well i am blacklisting it to allow another module to load first
[01:42] <mikegmtech> IdahoEv: did you specify a gateway in the interfaces file?
[01:42] <mrsempai> why this happen
[01:42] <kitche> mikegmtech: killall sometimes does not kill all of the processes
[01:42] <IdahoEv> mikegmtech: yep
[01:42] <ko> mikegmtech: does WoW run fast in wine compared to linux?
[01:42] <Jowi> IdahoEv, in /etc/network/interfaces the line "router 10.3.80.1" should read "gateway 10.3.80.1" maybe
[01:43] <keith1234> blackest: you can specify order by explicitly listing them in /etc/modules
[01:43] <ko> mikegmtech: *i meant compared to windows?
[01:43] <p1ls> anyone recomends any ubuntu books, or programing, security, hacking?
[01:43] <kj0ttdeig> even the recovery mode won't work
[01:43] <kitche> mrsempai: perhaps ask an op
[01:43] <simplyw00x> ko: Runs fine on my set-up
[01:43] <Jowi> IdahoEv, should have seen it earlier.
[01:43] <Scunizi> keith1234, You're the bomb! Thanks.. that did it..
[01:43] <mikegmtech> ko: heh I just got it running 10 minutes ago
[01:43] <keith1234> kitche: you can killall -9, no?
[01:43] <keith1234> Scunizi: np
[01:43] <simplyw00x> ko: Games in general fun as well as they did on vista
[01:43] <blackest> but then i need to find out the other driver too yes
[01:43] <mrsempai> :/
[01:43] <pike_> Jowi: you might notice issues but generally speed isnt the problem with running things in wine. often it is even faster than windows
[01:43] <ko> simplyw00x: cool
[01:43] <kitche> keith1234: no clue I just run killall when I use killall
[01:43] <Jowi> IdahoEv, *I* should have seen it ...
[01:43] <keith1234> blackest: what do you mean?
[01:44] <keith1234> kitche: i think you can use killall -9
[01:44] <ko> Does hibernate actually work for anyone here?
[01:44] <Jowi> thanks for the tip pike_ :) (don't think that msg was for me though)
[01:44] <vakosel> what means that after download a  file should be owned by root.root and copied to /tmp?
[01:44] <wtfk1> hello?
[01:44] <mikegmtech> ko: but I was also running on Windows 64...and have an ATI card, which is friendly to neither WoW or Ubuntu
[01:44] <blackest> well basically i have two dvb cards i need one to consistantly load first
[01:44] <IdahoEv> Jowl:  DOH.   yeah, i should have seen that too.
[01:44] <wtfk1> somebody know how to install an atheros wireless card under ubuntu?
[01:44] <IdahoEv> Jowl:  that fixed it.   thanks mate.
[01:44] <IdahoEv> appreciate the help, everybody
[01:44] <keith1234> blackest: mythtv box?
[01:45] <pike_> wtfk1: usually just sudo apt-get install linux-restricted-modules-$(uname -r)
[01:45] <zexr0> Is there a way to see the list of the daemon that are running ?
[01:45] <wtfk1> let me try again
[01:45] <mikegmtech> heh...I thought the router x.x.x.x was just something I hadn't learned about yet :P
[01:45] <keith1234> zexr0 'ps aux'
[01:45] <Frogzoo> ko: hibernate seems to have issues with lots of people on feisty
[01:45] <kj0ttdeig> how to disable restricted/propietary drivers by command?!
[01:45] <blackest> so i am blacklisting the module for the dvb-s card and thus the dvb-t card loads first now i just need to load it manually to put dvb-s as card 1 (yes myth)
[01:45] <Kobalts> Anyone know what the reason is in 7.04 that you can't add a user named "admin" ?
[01:45] <wtfk1> it says it cant finde pck
[01:46] <simplyw00x> ko: Hibernate works perfectly for me
[01:46] <louis_> same
[01:46] <keith1234> Kobalts: you can't in debian etch either
[01:46] <wtfk1> this is the answer i got back: E: No se pudo encontrar el paquete linux-restricted-modules-2.6.20-16-generic

[01:47] <zexr0> And is there someone that know how to use the BOINC Manager, I downloaded it from Add/remove and when I do "Select Computer" it tells me that I got an invalid password
[01:47] <wtfk1> im not looking help in spanishhhh its what terminal told me
[01:47] <Jowi> Kobalts, admin is already the name of a group.
[01:47] <zexr0> And the daemon is running

[01:47] <ubotu> To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[01:47] <pike_> !multiverse | wtfk1
[01:47] <ubotu> wtfk1: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[01:48] <pike_> wtfk1: im not sure of the repo its either universe or multiverse but youll want to add both
[01:48] <orbisvicis> !gnash
[01:48] <Kobalts> In 6.xx I could have a user named "admin"  I need a user named "admin" in 7.04 so I don't have to mess with authentications... Hmmm
[01:48] <Jowi> Kobalts, when you add a user it creates a group with the same name automatically. since admin group is already taken it should generate an error
[01:48] <orbisvicis> !Gnash
[01:48] <ubotu> An open source flash replacement.  It is still beta software. For current status or for more info http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/
[01:48] <Kobalts> Jowi:  I see... grumble... grumble
[01:48] <mikegmtech> is there a way to make it so you don't have to keep typing a password when you need higher privileges to perform a task?
[01:48] <NeoGeo64> orbisvicis: Gnash sucks.  Don't use it.
[01:49] <simplyw00x> mikegmtech: There is, but it makes things laughably insecure
[01:49] <ko> Does hibernate require my swap partition to be the same size as my ram?
[01:49] <keith1234> Kobalts: you might have to hack that manually
[01:49] <wtfk1> so i need to d/l repositories and components then install that and the sudo apt get install modles r and that stuff?
[01:49] <simplyw00x> you modify /etc/sudoers
[01:49] <orbisvicis> yeah, ive noticed, but none of the other replacements are detected .... so
[01:49] <wtfk1> and it sure work
[01:49] <keith1234> Kobalts: add 'admin2', then go edit /etc/passwd later
[01:49] <keith1234> and /etc/group
[01:49] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech: Thats the way Linux is.  You're better off to get used to it rather than changing it, because Linux will always have it.
[01:49] <pike_> ko: yeah. if youre concerned about it id make swap about 1.5Xram
[01:49] <mikegmtech> heh...can you tell where I came from :P
[01:50] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech: How long have you been using Linux?
[01:50] <ko> pike_:  so hibernate wont work at all if my swap isnt 1.5x ram?
[01:50] <Kobalts> keith1234:  Lol, that is what I am going to do now.   Heh  I just wondered why I could add it, but could never "save" that with the Users... applet
[01:50] <orbisvicis> 64 bit hasnt many flash options
[01:50] <xx_> hello
[01:50] <mikegmtech> well my current job I support fedora and redhat all day. I've been dabbling for about 2 years off and on.
[01:50] <pike_> ko: if there isnt available swap. the extra half is just to be safe
[01:50] <mikegmtech> this is the 3rd attempt to move off windows entirely
[01:51] <pike_> ko: having said that it might work sometimes im not an expert on hibernate.
[01:51] <wtfk1> look my card was working perfect yesterday and i downloaded updates then restarted and it dissapeared
[01:51] <ko> pike_:  ok ill try making that partition bigger and see what happens :)
[01:51] <xx_> 
[01:51] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech: Good luck. I've also been dibbing and dabbing with Linux since Jan 2002... I've never had the courage to ditch XP.
[01:52] <ko> is there a log I can read to see what hibernate is doing when it fails?
[01:52] <mikegmtech> well I still have my work laptop with XP. Need it for work.
[01:52] <xx_> 
[01:52] <HoocH_> just a quick question, how do I start Cron ?
[01:52] <keith1234> xx_ english?
[01:52] <keith1234> cron runs automatically
[01:52] <mikegmtech> but I prefer the linux environment and stability over windows
[01:52] <keith1234> if it doesn't, you're in trouble
[01:52] <simplyw00x> ko: /var/log/mikegmtech
[01:52] <simplyw00x> sigh
[01:52] <NeoGeo64> mikegmtech: I bet you can do it (ditch Windows)
[01:52] <pike_> ko: you could grep for it under /var/log or just look there im not sure
[01:52] <HoocH_> so then, how can I add new tasks for it ?
[01:52] <simplyw00x> ko: /var/log/acpid
[01:52] <xx_> I'm Chinese
[01:52] <mikegmtech> I bet I can too. Now that I have WoW moved over ;)
[01:53] <ko> ty simplyw00x
[01:53] <NeoGeo64> i am pleased to know that theres a linux native port of Postal 2
[01:53] <NeoGeo64> my favorite online fps
[01:53] <mikegmtech> Postal 2?
[01:53] <mikegmtech> I've never heard of it
[01:53] <NeoGeo64> .google postal 2
[01:53] <simplyw00x> mikegmtech: I'm playing it right now. Funny how some people's priorities are different to others' :)
[01:53] <simplyw00x> did you hear they're making a postal movie?
[01:53] <NeoGeo64> its a first person shooter game
[01:54] <NeoGeo64> it rules
[01:54] <orbisvicis> how is swfdec?
[01:54] <wtfk1> and i cant acces restricted hardware
[01:54] <mikegmtech> interesting
[01:54] <ko> why does Xchat keep removing people's nicks when they write multiple lines.. most annoying feature ever
[01:54] <mikegmtech> simplyw00x: WoW?
[01:54] <NeoGeo64> brb actually gonna go play some (theres a linux, mac and windows version). running with scissors is linux friendly
[01:54] <NeoGeo64> RWS is the company who developed postal 2
[01:54] <simplyw00x> mikegmtech: Yup
[01:54] <Arrick> !phpmyadmin
[01:54] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about phpmyadmin - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[01:55] <Arrick> wth
[01:55] <simplyw00x> mikegmtech: Shame blizzard abandoned their native port idea
[01:55] <mikegmtech> simplyw00x: yeah it'd be nice to not have to use Wine to play it
[01:55] <NeoGeo64> Although... RWS didn't release a Linux port until 4 months after the windows release
[01:55] <NeoGeo64> but 4 months is better than never..
[01:55] <simplyw00x> mikegmtech: Every wine upgrade is nail-biting for me
[01:55] <mikegmtech> simplyw00x: what server and race do you play?
[01:56] <simplyw00x> mikegmtech: Sunstrider and aerie peak
[01:56] <simplyw00x> mikegmtech: you?
[01:56] <mikegmtech> simplyw00x: pvp?
[01:56] <simplyw00x> mikegmtech: SS is, Aerie is pve
[01:56] <keith1234> and... we're back
[01:56] <mikegmtech> simplyw00x: I have most of my characters on Runetotem (pve) but probably transferring my paladin and shaman to Madoran
[01:57] <kitche> !offtopic
[01:57] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[01:57] <mikegmtech> kitche: yeah sorry...just realized that
[01:57] <secleinteer> hi, does anyone know why some of the packages are "kept back" when i run "apt-get upgrade" ?
[01:57] <simplyw00x> pike_: Damn, he found me
[01:57] <keith1234> orbisvicis: lehigh?
[01:57] <CanadianMan_> i'm having a problem when using beryl, if i have other opened windows on other desktops they all show up on the same window list, is this a bug or a setting i have on?  I'd rather have it where all the opened windows show up on that desktop's window list
[01:57] <kitche> secleinteer: probably because they are needed for an application you have
[01:58] <AmyFairchild> Hi. o_o
[01:58] <mikegmtech> /afk
[01:58] <secleinteer> kitche: thx
[01:58] <kitche> CanadianMan_: think it's a feature
[01:58] <Jowi> secleinteer, apt-get dist-upgrade will install/update them. usually it means that a new kernel (or something important) is gonna be installed.
[01:58] <orbisvicis> yep
[01:58] <CanadianMan_> kitche, do you know which one it is or what it's called?
[01:58] <AmyFairchild> I got an unable to locate RSDP, what did I do wrong? @_@
[01:59] <secleinteer> Jowi: "linux-image-generic linux-restricted-modules-generic" <-- new kernel, right?
[01:59] <kitche> CanadianMan_: nope only used beryl when testing it on Source Mage
[01:59] <Jowi> yes secleinteer
[01:59] <orbisvicis> @keith1234, yes
[01:59] <CanadianMan_> ketche, ty
[01:59] <secleinteer> Jowi: is there any reason why i wouldn't want to dist-upgrade?
[01:59] <simplyw00x> secleinteer: Stability
[01:59] <Jowi> secleinteer, stability
[01:59] <keith1234> orbisvicis: that's funny. this is the first time i've seen someone other than kriebz from acm
[01:59] <d3bruts1d> Can anyone tell me what I need to do to unsintall evolution and a number of other apps from ubuntu-desktop?
[01:59] <fsckr> what are some other ftp ports I can use other than the defaul 21?
[02:00] <keith1234> fsckr you can use any port you want
[02:00] <Jowi> secleinteer, if a kernel works for you and do not have any major security issues there's no reason to upgrade it
[02:00] <secleinteer> Jowi: will the new kernel move to the regular 'apt-get upgrade' when it's considered stable or something?
[02:00] <runatrain> ftp ports should nto matter
[02:00] <keith1234> fsckr probably want to stay away from other standard ports, though
[02:00] <secleinteer> Jowi: kk, then i'll leave it alone
[02:00] <Jowi> secleinteer, I never seen a kernel upgrade without a dist-upgrade
[02:00] <secleinteer> kk
[02:00] <fsckr> which to you recommend keith1234
[02:00] <simplyw00x> Jowi: I had one like 3 days ago
[02:00] <secleinteer> Jowi: so usually there is only a kernel upgrade between OS versions?
[02:00] <CarlFK> installed XP on sda2, installed Ubuntu on sda3 - had to reinstall XP, which whacked grub.  booted from the feisty live cd.  how do I re-install grub?
[02:01] <kitche> secleinteer: well kernel might be fixed with bug fixes and such in a distro version
[02:01] <Jowi> secleinteer, also, a kernel upgrade needs a reboot. not good for a server box. no, kernel upgrades can happen because of bug-fixes.
[02:01] <pike_> d3bruts1d: you should just be able to uninstall them either in synaptic or using apt-get. itll complain about ubuntu-desktop but you can ignore that. to be safe maybe do a sudo apt-get remove packagename -s  to simulate
[02:01] <orbisvicis> worlds a big place ?
[02:01] <secleinteer> CarlFK: http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Restore_Grub
[02:01] <keith1234> fsckr: i dunno... 2100?
[02:01] <CarlFK> secleinteer: thanks
[02:01] <Jowi> need to sleep. night all
[02:02] <fsckr> ill come up with something :) thx keith1234
[02:02] <secleinteer> thx again jowi
[02:04] <kitche> hmm that is sure alot of quits
[02:05] <mikegmtech> quit
[02:05] <ID_EGO_> I am having a problem with my rotating snapshot style backups
[02:05] <ID_EGO_> my hd keeps reeching max mount times
[02:06] <simplyw00x> ID_EGO_: and fscking?
[02:06] <frutax> i just upgraded my XP partition to Vista (it's all true! it sucks!) and now, as i expected, GRUB was wiped so i have no way to boot back into Feisty. I tried Super Grub Disk, but it doesn't appear to be working. Any suggestions on a fix for this?
[02:06] <ID_EGO_> well it isnt fscking
[02:06] <ID_EGO_> i have been having to manually do it
[02:06] <keith1234> frutax: boot ubuntu cd, or knoppix
[02:06] <keith1234> and read the man page for 'grub-install'
[02:06] <keith1234> specifically the option "--root-dir"
[02:06] <ID_EGO_> im running server edition
[02:07] <frutax> keith1234, thank you i will give that a try -- will and Edgy Live install CD suffice?
[02:07] <simplyw00x> ID_EGO_: what error are you getting, and when?
[02:07] <keith1234> frutax: should
[02:07] <frutax> keith1234: ok, thanks
[02:08] <puff> hm, I have half a gig of free space.  I have a blank DVD and a burner, and 4.3 gigs of files from an old project, which I really doen't need to have on my laptop.  Can I simply burn these to the DVD, or do I need to have more than half a gig free in order to burn the DVD?
[02:08] <craigbass1976> I'm getting ready to install 6.06 on a dell latitude.  However, instead of a login screen I get a mostly blank screen.  THere are two dots about the size of a block cursor (you know, the old mac blinking box) but nothing else.  This is after redownloading the iso because the two other dapper discs I had wouldn't work either.  Any ideas?
[02:09] <sebas_> how do I open an image from the terminal?
[02:09] <keith1234> puff: why would you need more free space to burn a DVD?
[02:09] <kandrews> /quti
[02:09] <puff> keith1234: I have no idea, this is the first time I've ever burned a DVD.
[02:09] <puff> keith1234: just checking :-).
[02:09] <ID_EGO_> i get off of var/log/messages : EXT3-fs warning: maximal mount count reached, running e2fsck is recommended
[02:09] <craigbass1976> sebas_, you would $programtoopenimage imagename
[02:10] <simplyw00x> ID_EGO_: Right. But what's the problem with that?
[02:10] <puff> keith1234: If I had a nickel for every time I just went ahead and did somehting and later on had somebody tell me something very much like (to make up an example) "what on earth made you think you could burn a DVD with only half a gig of psace?"....
[02:10] <sebas_> craigbass1976, yes I know but which is the name of the image viewer?
[02:10] <craigbass1976> sebas_, like, gthumb joebobfrank.jpg
[02:10] <simplyw00x> sebas_: gthumb
[02:10] <ID_EGO_> i dont remember it doing it before
[02:10] <keith1234> puff: fair enough
[02:10] <craigbass1976> sebas_, sorry, I couldn't think of one besides gimp for a second
[02:11] <simplyw00x> ID_EGO_: You can change the number of mounts before that message appears with hdparm I believe
[02:11] <puff> craigbass1976: There's a text-based installer CD, you might want to try it iwth that first.
[02:11] <sebas_> thanks craigbass1976 and simplyw00x
[02:11] <puff> Crap... it says "there was an error" and "the files would not fit on the disk".  Wtf?
[02:12] <ID_EGO_> will it cause damage to the hd after extended mounts?
[02:12] <craigbass1976> puff, I saw that.  How do I know x is going to work after the install if it won't work on the livecd?  I had this booted up to puppy linux no problem earlier
[02:12] <simplyw00x> ID_EGO_: I don't think mounting it causes damage
[02:12] <simplyw00x> ID_EGO_: But it check there is no damage every x mounts just for safety
[02:12] <simplyw00x> ID_EGO_: Or rather, tells you to
[02:12] <ID_EGO_> is there a script for it to check by it self?
[02:13] <Terzo> how do i use the terminal to extract a tar.gz to a specific folder?
[02:13] <craigbass1976> Terzo, I wold copy the file there and then untar it
[02:13] <puff> craigbass1976: idkanow, a friend was having trouble installing it using the GUI install.  We eventually went to the text-based instlaler, after the basic install with that, X worked fine and she continued using the GUI installer..
[02:13] <simplyw00x> ID_EGO_: hdparm can probably set it to do it automatically every x boots
[02:13] <puff> craigbass1976: I think it's sort of a chicken-and-egg thing.
[02:13] <craigbass1976> puff, ok I'll try it.
[02:13] <puff> Cool.
[02:13] <Terzo> i don't think i'm supposed to untar it, it's a gdm theme
[02:14] <keith1234> Terzo: tar xzf
[02:14] <defjux> i want to launch xscreensaver on login but when i put xscreensaver-command -lock it doesnt work!! how can i put a few seconds before the command.. i think it is running before xscreensaver starts!!
[02:14] <defjux> i put it as a command in sessions i mean
[02:14] <keith1234> sleep
[02:15] <sienem> How do I get ubuntu to install the new ndiswrapper?
[02:15] <defjux> can i put commas before it?
[02:15] <brochu121> can anyone help me with apache/php?
[02:15] <keith1234> defjux: sleep 5; xscreensaver-command -lock
[02:15] <Terzo> so if the file's name is xzf, and i want to extract it to /usr/share/themes, i would type "sudo tar xzf /usr/share/themes"?
[02:15] <ID_EGO_> boots or mounts
[02:15] <keith1234> brochu121: yes
[02:15] <puff> okay, so how do I undo a "move to trash"?
[02:15] <keith1234> Terzo: no
[02:16] <defjux> cool thanks keith :)
[02:16] <nir> how do I switch between english and another language quickly?
[02:16] <CokeMan> anyone know the status of a gui for truecrypt?
[02:16] <brochu121> when i try to load a php file (with apache running) i get the file download dialog in firefox
[02:16] <keith1234> Terzo: move the file to /usr/share/themes, then 'sudo tar xzf <filename'
[02:16] <brochu121> i searched and found that i should update libapache2-mod-php
[02:16] <brochu121> i try installing that but i get an error that the package is broken
[02:16] <puff> brochu121: there's an apache conf you need to set so that apache treats .php extensions as a script instead of a data file.
[02:16] <Pelo> nir,  I think you can have a pannel applet fo do that
[02:17] <brochu121> ok, which config?
[02:17] <keith1234> Terzo: <filename> as a placeholder.... so, foo.tgz or whatever
[02:17] <Terzo> ok, thanks
[02:17] <nir> pelo: I have the language installed, but I can't figure out how to switch to it in open-office
[02:17] <bobsumone_> brochu121: what is your problem?
[02:17] <nir> pelo: I have it set up in open office as well under CTL language, but how do I actually switch?
[02:17] <Nicholas76> I need a guide to dual-booting Ubuntu and Vista on a laptop with Vista preinstalled...
[02:17] <kandrews> Hi, can I use network-manager from a terminal?
[02:17] <puff> brochu121: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf.
[02:17] <Pelo> nir, oh in open office,  I belive ( but I am not 100%)   menu > tools > options
[02:18] <puff> bobsumone_: Apache's treating his php files as data instead of as scripts.
[02:18] <brochu121> puff, what am i editing in there?
[02:18] <bobsumone_> oh ok
[02:18] <simplyw00x> ID_EGO_: man hdparm and find out :)
[02:18] <nir> pelo: I did that, how do I actually enable it?
[02:18] <bobsumone_> i know this
[02:18] <roe__> Nicholas76, do you have a parttion on your HD to accept Ubuntu?
[02:18] <Nicholas76> yes
[02:18] <puff> bobsumone_: Oh, good, you handle it then.
[02:18] <Pelo> nir,  you can also try asking in #openoffice.org
[02:18] <nir> pelo: It's like it lets me choose it in the options, but I can't actually go from english to hebrew
[02:18] <puff> bobsumone_: I'd have to dig the info up :-).
[02:18] <roe__> Nicholas76, then installing Ubuntu to that partion with overwrite vistas MBR with grub and you should be good to go
[02:19] <roe__> with = will
[02:19] <Nicholas76> I heard that GRUB won't detect Vista though.
[02:19] <Pelo> nir,  asking in #openoffice.org is your best chance to get an answer
[02:19] <puff> So anybody know how to undo a "move to trash"
[02:19] <ludesign> GRUB will detect Vista :)
[02:19] <nir> pelo: thank you
[02:19] <CokeMan> for the task bar, is there any way to make the icons for each task in the task bar les transparent or brighter?
[02:19] <simplyw00x> puff: Manually
[02:19] <bobsumone_> brochu121: ok check this out.... you installed apache, what else have you done (i know u installed php too)
[02:19] <Pelo> puff,  just open ~/.Trash/ and move stuff out
[02:20] <puff> Or more to the point, having copy-and-pasted a file into the the DVD in nautilus, how do I remove it from the DVD?
[02:20] <Nicholas76> ludesign: Cool! I never knew that
[02:20] <simplyw00x> puff: Been a bug open on GNOME for about 4 years
[02:20] <brochu121> installed mysql, restarted apache and verified apache is running
[02:20] <simplyw00x> Nicholas76: It does detect vista
[02:20] <brochu121> posted a php file in my apache directory, but i get the file download window
[02:20] <bobsumone_> brochu121: ok, you can open html files right but not php?
[02:20] <Nicholas76> YAY! :)
[02:20] <brochu121> bobsumone: correct
[02:20] <ludesign> Nicholas76 I'm with TripleBoot (XP, Vista and Ubuntu) and I had no problems with GRUB
[02:21] <keith1234> AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3
[02:21] <Nicholas76> Which did u install first?
[02:21] <bobsumone_> brochu121: ok, are you on server or desktop?
[02:21] <fw1987> ciao
[02:21] <keith1234> brochu121: ^^^^
[02:21] <ludesign> XP->Vista->Ubuntu
[02:21] <brochu121> desktop
[02:21] <fw1987> a tutti
[02:21] <Nicholas76> Does it automatically detect vistta amd xp or do you have to enter it manually?
[02:21] <puff> simplyw00x: So you're saying, I can't?
[02:21] <fw1987> guide for openbox???
[02:21] <simplyw00x> puff: Yes
[02:21] <ludesign> automatically
[02:22] <bobsumone_> brochu121: install the libapache2-mod-php5
[02:22] <Nicholas76> Interesting...
[02:22] <jin> any one using avant-window-navigator here??
[02:22] <brochu121> bobsumone: thats where i run into issues...i get a broken file error message
[02:22] <simplyw00x> jin: yes
[02:22] <jin> or kiba-dock?
[02:22] <Nicholas76> jin: no
[02:22] <fw1987> I use
[02:22] <puff> simplyw00x: okay, so what would you recommend I do at this point?
[02:22] <Nicholas76> ??\\\\\\\\\\\
[02:22] <bobsumone_> hmmmm
[02:22] <jin> simplyw00x, how do you add launchers??
[02:22] <ko> I'm trying to get my wireless card in and out of monitor mode and I can do it the first time by doing "sudo su && ifconfig wlan0 down && iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor && ifconfig wlan0 up" but then when i switch the card to managed mode the same way and then back to monitor mode, i cant do "ifconfig wlan0 up" because it says "SIOCSIFFLAGS: Operation not permitted" any ideas anyone?
[02:22] <keith1234> brochu121: do you have this anywhere? AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3
[02:22] <fw1987> avant window navigator
[02:22] <jin> it seems I can't add any
[02:22] <simplyw00x> jin: Drag and drop from the main gnome menu
[02:22] <brochu121> keith: in what file?
[02:23] <klav> hi! I'm continually having problems with my ipod.  Rhythembox loads all songs and playlists but will NOT play them. It just runs through giving each file a red symbol. GTKPOD will not load up my ipod @ all
[02:23] <Ng> anyone done an install on a ps3?
[02:23] <fw1987> you use gnome or kde?
[02:23] <simplyw00x> puff: Wait, which do you want to do? Restore, or remove from the dvd burning folder?
[02:23] <jin> simplyw00x, doesn't work
[02:23] <puff> simplyw00x: a) it failed to write the 4.3GB file tree to the DVd, said not enough space.  b) can I try to write a 1.6GB file tree of audio books that I don't need to have on my laptop right now, but would rather not delete, or is the DVD ruined now, c) how do I do tihs?
[02:23] <Pelo> klav, try looking for an answer in the forum, I think you'll have better luck there
[02:23] <Nicholas76> Ng, I don't know if it would work.
[02:23] <klav> Pelo: thanks
[02:23] <bobsumone_> brochu121: you might want to try "sudo a2enmod php5"
[02:23] <simplyw00x> jin: You sure it's from the main gnome menu, and the cursor becomes a plus-sign?
[02:24] <fw1987> you must active 3d effect (compiz or beryl)
[02:24] <puff> And if the answer to b) is "yes", then I have to remove the 4.3GB file tree from the DVD in nautilus before trying to write, right?
[02:24] <g8tr> I've had a problem with my laptop running fiesty locking up, (screen freeze) and caps lock key flashing randomly?
[02:24] <simplyw00x> puff: It doesn't move files to the dvd, it links them
[02:24] <Terzo> using terminal to move a file x from folder a to folder b, what would i type?
[02:24] <simplyw00x> puff: Hence the files should still be intact, no?
[02:24] <Ng> Nicholas76: it is supposed to :)
[02:24] <sx66> how do you find what version of ubuntu are you running?
[02:24] <keith1234> uname -a
[02:24] <puff> simplyw00x: Well, I tried "move to trash" on the files in the DVD, and it lookd like it was deleting them.  So I cancled that.
[02:24] <Nicholas76> g8tr, Explain a little more.
[02:25] <simplyw00x> puff: Also, if it didn't start the burnign process the dvd should be fine
[02:25] <jin> simplyw00x, it doesn't become a plus-sign..
[02:25] <puff> But I just did a "du -s" on the original file tree, and it's still 4.3GB.

[02:25] <puff> simplyw00x: How do I change things around so I'm trying to write the 1.6GB file tree and not trying to write the 4.3GB file tree?
[02:25] <Ng> sx66: lsb_release -a  can be a useful reminder ;)
[02:25] <simplyw00x> jin: not even on the end of the bar, or between the launchers
[02:25] <sx66> !version
[02:25] <ubotu> To find out what version of Ubuntu you have, type  lsb_release -a  in a !shell
[02:25] <jin> simplyw00x, I don't have any launchers yet
[02:26] <simplyw00x> simplyw00x:  remove the files from the Burning meta-folder and add the ones you want

[02:26] <doenner> thx, ubotu
[02:26] <simplyw00x> jin: Err.... look on the awn bugtracker?
[02:26] <g8tr> well, it started randomly.  My lappy is running fiesty 7.04, it would be running fine, than at different times it would freeze.  Screen freeze.  CTRL + ALT + BACK SPC would not do anything, I would have to hold the power key down.  While the screen was frozen, the light for caps light would be flashing, at random intervels
[02:26] <sienem> I'm able to scan for wireless networks, I can see my own router, it seems like I can connect to it, but the connection is usually 0%. (occasionally up to 100%, but still can't get online). Any ideas? I keep reading and trying stuff, no luck..
[02:26] <jin> simplyw00x, worked :)

[02:27] <keith1234> you thank bots?
[02:27] <puff> simplyw00x: so how do I make it *not* try to write the 4.3GB file tree to the DVD?  It should be easy enough to copy & paste the 1.6GB file tree into the DVD, but how do I remove the 4.3GB file tree?

[02:40] <goofey> Frogzoo: is there a way to find out what "package" provided the config files?
[02:40] <Frogzoo> goofey: purge the apache2 package, then remove the /etc/apache2/ directory & reinstall
[02:40] <bruenig> sx66, do you mean you just want 1 menu instead of three or you want stuff to look like vista
[02:40] <Pelo> rabby__, same answer
[02:41] <ad5fd> ive got a password/installing prgs problem
[02:41] <raulgarrido> onechard you have Ubuntu running on MacBook Pro?
[02:41] <aboo0ood> keith1234, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24515/
[02:41] <goofey> Frogzoo: i did an apt-get remove - is that right?
[02:41] <onechard> sure do on it now
[02:41] <Pelo> ad5fd,  we can only help with specifc issues,  you need to be more precise
[02:41] <kandrews> keith1234 / roe__ : I've taken an interest wmii and I would like to make it my default window manager on my laptop. My only problem is figuring out how to handle wireless networks from the command line.
[02:41] <Frogzoo> goofey: sudo dpkg --purge apache2

[02:41] <sx66> bruenig, I have the beryl theme, I want to taskbar like it.
[02:42] <Arrick> !webmin
[02:42] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[02:42] <onechard> probably should have left osx partition to update firmware but ...
[02:42] <ad5fd> i cannor install prgs or run ububtu updates...i enter my password and it just sits there
[02:42] <aboo0ood> !paste
[02:42] <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)
[02:42] <Arrick> WTF
[02:42] <Arrick> what took the place of Webmin?
[02:42] <Aresilek> Pelo: this is the command i'm using wxvlc -f dvd:///dev/scd0
[02:42] <Pelo> ad5fd,  caplock key?
[02:42] <ad5fd> caplock off
[02:42] <onechard> webmin works fine here on feisty
[02:42] <keith1234> kandrews: iwconfig
[02:42] <sx66> My resolution is low how do I change that?
[02:43] <Pelo> Aresilek, like I said  ask your quesiton in #vlc  they will be able to help
[02:43] <goofey> Frogzoo: that didn't recreate /etc/apache2 either - very strange
[02:43] <rabby__> Pelo: according to packages.ubuntu.org there is flashplugin-nonfree in feisty > multiverse
[02:43] <Aresilek> whoops
[02:43] <Pelo> sx66,  you may need to manualy add extra resolutions in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[02:43] <Aresilek> bruenig: i used this command wxvlc -f dvd:///dev/scd0
[02:43] <ad5fd> and even the synaptac pacgame mgr just does a loop with the password
[02:43] <keith1234> aboo0ood: so... you have glib2 version 2.12.11-0ubuntu1
[02:43] <roe__> sx66, /etc/X11/xorg.conf - take a look at that file
[02:43] <Pelo> rabby__,  for the x86 version not for the amd64 one
[02:43] <bruenig> Aresilek, congratulations
[02:43] <Frogzoo> goofey: you might need to remove all of /etc/apache2/ & /var/www/ /etc/default/apache2
[02:43] <Aresilek> Pelo: #vlc is empty
[02:44] <kandrews> keith1234: thanks, I'll check it out!
[02:44] <rabby__> Pelo: so i have no chance to get it? :(
[02:44] <Aresilek> bruenig: it still doesn't work

[02:45] <ad5fd> even does it usint g the terminal
[02:45] <Pelo> ad5fd,  everything in linux is case sensitve ,  make sure your type your password with the right caps and small where appropriate
[02:45] <keith1234> aboo0ood: i still don't know what your question is
[02:45] <goofey> Frogzoo: ahh - that's a thought
[02:45] <puff> Pelo: Hm, should I check finalize?
[02:45] <CokeMan> i have two panels and i had one under the other, and somehow i managed to switch their order, and i want to switch them back. In attempting to do this somehow i locked ALL panels so much so that ubuntu wouldent even shut down

[02:56] <Punkunity> <----windows user whole life and linux user for like 2 months
[02:56] <slackmagic> Punkunity: then you create a symlink with sudo ln -fs /usr/bin/rar /usr/bin/unrar
[02:56] <Q_Continuum> I'm rsync'ing over my home dir from old machine to fresh, new machine - are there any hidden folders in /home/username/ that I *don't* want to copy over? (that are machine-specific? - the ones I see that I question are .config .fontconfig .update-manager-core .update-notifier)

[02:59] <CokeMan> what programs emulate an .iso or .bin as a cd rom?
[02:59] <Punkunity> ty slackmagic that was rad, all i needed was the filename (rar in this case) and after that i installed it, double clicked on the file i wanted, and i extracted it to the folder i had previosly made for the actual file
[02:59] <TheDebugger> CokeMan: It's built-in
[02:59] <enzo_> Hey does anyone know where i can find an internet operating system that will run on ubuntu ?
[02:59] <Punkunity> slackmagic, i have like 8 ubuntu books, and i have read a bunch on that site, ty again

[02:59] <mpedram> i want to try reinstalling a fresh version of Feisty, is there any way i can do that without deleting the partition manually and reinstalling just through the cd.
[02:59] <slackmagic> CokeMan: if it's a movie by the way you can play it directly via mplayer for example (just a tip)
[02:59] <keith1234> mpedram: no
[03:00] <enzo_> type it into google
[03:00] <contajious> what's the app that handles network connections?

[03:01] <frutax> I'm back again, trying to get my grub menu back, I looked on the Edgy live CD for a way to run grub-install but i couldn't figure out how to get to a command line interface, so i messed around with Super GRUB Disk some more and now when i boot up i just get the message "Missing operating system"
[03:01] <CokeMan> TheDebugger, i am refering to data CD's not movies or some such. Does your answer stand? and what is roughly what i need to do to accomplish this task?
[03:01] <raulgarrido> one chard could you initiate the PM mode?
[03:02] <keith1234> chris_ mount -o loop file.sio /mnt/somewhere

[03:04] <keith1234> SubOn1: be careful... you've been warned
[03:04] <neodevelop> mount /dev/sda1 /your/directory
[03:04] <keith1234> there's a reason nobody's answering him
[03:04] <SubOn1> keith1234: huh?
[03:04] <neodevelop> umount to quit the partition
[03:04] <keith1234> we've been down this road, a few hours ago
[03:04] <roe__> kahrytan, /etc/fstab
[03:04] <slackmagic> CokeMan: create a folder somewhere like /mnt/ISO
[03:04] <chozandrias> How do I mount a partition?
[03:04] <kahrytan> roe_ Mounting settings. Not the fstab
[03:04] <SirBob1701> Is there a way to wipe and reload all the drivers without a reformat ?  I just installed a new mobo and would be nice to avoid such but i'll do it if i have to
[03:04] <neodevelop> yeah as roe says the fstab
[03:04] <chris_> i need some help setting my sound ......well..i plug in jackphones but i still hear sound from pc speakers.......any idea...thx for helping me
[03:04] <SubOn1> keith1234: who's been down what road? This is my first time in here today
[03:05] <keith1234> SubOn1: the rest of us have ;-)
[03:05] <Broc223_> is there a good gnome based MySQL admin tool?
[03:05] <SirBob1701> btw different model mobo
[03:05] <roe__> kahrytan, what do you think the fstab stores?
[03:05] <slackmagic> CokeMan: sudo mount /path/to/foo.iso /mnt/ISO -t iso9660 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop0
[03:05] <enzo_> Keith1234, look up Xcerion, but their software is not out yet
[03:05] <kahrytan> roe__: Nothing related to this
[03:05] <keith1234> you want to use ubuntu as a server for that?
[03:05] <chump> is there a simple way to disable CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE from killing my X or perhaps to remap it ?
[03:05] <SubOn1> keith1234: I'm confused, do you or do you not know the answer to my query?
[03:05] <SirBob1701> Broc223 only one i know is mysql query browser and mysql admin
[03:05] <dopefish> chozandrias: sudo mkdir [where you want to mount it] ; sudo mount /dev/whatever [where you want to mount it] 
[03:06] <enzo_> Keith1234, im looking for something like that, which will run on ubuntu
[03:06] <neodevelop> yea he browser and admin
[03:06] <neodevelop> are good
[03:06] <neodevelop> really good
[03:06] <chozandrias> thank you
[03:06] <kahrytan> Subhuman: I added option to a partition under properties (when it was mounted to desktop) and now I can't mount it again. I need to erase the option.
[03:06] <SirBob1701> neodevelop: i perfer the command line still
[03:06] <dopefish> chozandrias: example, mkdir /media/partition; sudo mount /dev/sda1 /media/partition
[03:06] <orbisvicis> !pin
[03:06] <ubotu> pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[03:06] <neodevelop> jejeje yeah the super line command, as good linus user, i prefer the same
[03:07] <dopefish> is anybody available to help with an ndiswrapper related problem?
[03:07] <roe__> kahrytan, what protocol did you use to mount this drive
[03:07] <kahrytan> roe__: not helping
[03:07] <roe__> kahrytan, it is a local harddisk or network drive?
[03:07] <daylighter> songbird is weeeeeeirrrrrrd
[03:07] <dopefish> more of an ubuntu problem than an ndiswrapper problem, actually
[03:07] <raulgarrido> still trying onchard lol
[03:08] <chozandrias> Another question, how do I run a ISO file on a virtual drive while using the ubuntu live cd?
[03:08] <onechard> weird i switched to kvirv in case konversation was the prob

[03:17] <dopefish> I got to go, I hope there's some way of salvaging ndiswrapper later
[03:17] <orbisvicis> kriebz! so are there now 3 or 4 acm'rs here ?

[03:20] <chozandrias> Frogzoo: I think that is for physical cd roms isnt it?
[03:21] <Jordan_U> kode, You don't need to use the sh ati installer, just restricted manager, and I may be wrong but I think that they conflict, so you shouldn't have both enabled ( I recommend uninstalling the ati driver from the sh script and going with restricted-manager instead )
[03:21] <uberushaximus> anandanbu, edit your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[03:21] <sam000> I removed and then installed mount and now ubuntu doesn't boot it says that the drive is readonly and it can't find any mountpoints should I just reinstall?

[03:23] <Jordan_U> kode, No, the two are completely separate.
[03:23] <ProfLogic> Jordan_U: Not really. I have tried "chroot /media/disk-2 /bin/bash". But then I get the error "/bin/bash: permission denied".
[03:23] <sam000> Jordan_u: I'm wondering because I reinstalled mount and now I need to be able to chroot or something to fix it someone said
[03:23] <Jordan_U> ProfLogic, You need to use sudo with chroot
[03:23] <keith1234> you don't need to specifiy /bin/bash
[03:23] <Frogzoo> chozandrias: can't be done
[03:23] <kode> Jordan_U, ok thanks, I'm going to try it
[03:23] <ProfLogic> Jordan_U: I am root (sudo su).
[03:24] <Aresilek> why is it that vlc will play fine in i enter "wxvlc -f dvd:///dev/scd0" into the terminal. but if I add it to autorun it doesn't work?

[03:25] <Jordan_U> sam000, That is all that a chroot is, it lets you run commands from your installed system while booted from a LiveCD, you would have to ask whoever was helping you what commands you need to run from there.
[03:25] <klav> orbisvicis: ahhh I see
[03:26] <chozandrias> klav: I did download one but, I am running a old version of ubuntu on a live cd that will not install and I need to install the new ISO that I downloaded to my drive.
[03:26] <sam000> Jordan_U: could you maybe see if you could help me with the prob?

[03:33] <k1gwb> chozandrias: hmmm you're gonna need either an OS on your hard drive, or a 2nd optical drive, I think
[03:33] <orbisvicis> maybe if pluginreg.dat was erased it would be reinitialized
[03:33] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, How much RAM do you have?

[03:35] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, I don't know if Ubuntu supports the toram kernel parameter ( I know knoppix and DSL do ) but that will let you load the LiveCD completely into RAM, at which point you can eject it.
[03:35] <sam000> Jordan_U: any ideas?
[03:35] <Aresilek> how does autorun start a program differently than the same command in the shell?
[03:36] <chozandrias> does anyone know if Ubuntu supports the toram kernel parameter?

[03:45] <slackmagic> orbisvicis: so I guess all we would have had to do was get nspluginwrapper to your ~/.mozilla/plugins/   but this way works too..you won't have to bother with other users on the same system complaining about the same problem then ;)
[03:45] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, And that obviously won't help you since to do that you would have to burn a CD, which is the whole problem :)
[03:45] <Yitram> hey LjL....yeah that hard drive is dead....i went to format it anyway.......and it won't partition program in ubuntu can't partition it
[03:46] <slackmagic> orbisvicis: and as I said i never dealt with 64bit/nspluginwrapper for that matter...i know that libflashplayer.so would have worked as I explained it though
[03:46] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: according to the document, I need to install it to my hard drive. And then I can run it to ram from there.
[03:46] <Aresilek> How do I get it so kubuntu runs a command in the shell whenever a dvd is inserted?
[03:46] <orbisvicis> slackmagic, yeah well if anyone here also gets stuck thats the solution - just for general knowledge
[03:47] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, While I am looking at the instructions you should create a swap partition on the hard drive since memory will be tight
[03:47] <orbisvicis> slackmagic, actualy nspluginwrapper was created ~/.mozilla/plugins/, so I had to recopy it back to the /usr/.. link
[03:47] <wastrel> i have ubuntu
[03:48] <kitsuneofdoom> Ok, I've had a problem or problems recently, my touchpad at some point randomly loses the scrolling ability, and firefox randomly closes, once when I was opening a link from gnome-terminal. It usually happens when I'm opening a new tab somehow, perhaps it's a RAM problem. Removing all my config files from a user's home folder doesn't help. On a laptop, Ubuntu 7.04, 32 bit.
[03:48] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: ok I have a 1.4GB linux swap partition.
[03:48] <felipe__> hye can anyone help me out with a cpu freq scaling issue?
[03:48] <davef> How do I get xemacs to print?  It says no default destination.  I tried adding lp| to the beginning of the /etc/printcap file, no luck.
[03:48] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, OK, try simply booting the LiveCD and adding "toram" to the kernel parameters
[03:49] <ProfLogic> Hello! I have a problem: I have deleted and recreated my /boot partition. Now GRUB shows me error 22. I think I have deleted my kernel. What should I do now to restart my system? How can I install a kernel using the live cd?
[03:49] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: I dont know how to boot it using any porameters
[03:50] <SirBob1701> anyone here have an Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe?
[03:50] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, When the LiveCD boots it will tell you at the bottom to use F6 ( I think, but check to be sure ) for "additional options" then just add "toram" to the line that appears and remove "splash" ( just so you can see some output to know that it is / isn't working )
[03:51] <chozandrias> ok ill try it
[03:51] <chozandrias> brb
[03:51] <DagonX> Where can I get MySQL 5 drivers for ReKall
[03:51] <Broc223_> is there a good gnome based MySQL admin tool?
[03:51] <felipe__> CPU Freq scaling problem!!!! Can anyone help?
[03:52] <malalo> Hi guys, I'm getting a GRUB error 15 upon loading... Anyone know whayt this means ?
[03:52] <SirBob1701> anyone have any favorite window managers besides gnome?
[03:52] <will__> enlightenment sirbob
[03:52] <dyrne> felipe__: i would but im afraid i never adress problems that merit less than 7 exclamation marks
[03:53] <kitsuneofdoom> SirBob1701: Openbox is nice. Very light.
[03:53] <will__> i actually like e-gnome
[03:53] <Emanu> hi
[03:53] <Emanu> anyone can help me?
[03:53] <craigbass1976> How come when I downloaded the text version of Ubuntu off the site, it's the same thing as the regular version?  I'm trying to get 6.06 on an Inspiron 1100 notebook and X is screwed up, regardless of whether I boot normally to the cd, or in safe graphics mode.
[03:53] <SirBob1701> i've tried enlightenment that not bad i'l have to check out openbox tho
[03:53] <kitsuneofdoom> Ok, I've had a problem or problems recently, my touchpad at some point randomly loses the scrolling ability, and firefox randomly closes, once when I was opening a link from gnome-terminal. It usually happens when I'm opening a new tab somehow, perhaps it's a RAM problem. Removing all my config files from a user's home folder doesn't help. On a laptop, Ubuntu 7.04, 32 bit!!!!!!!!!!
[03:53] <slackmagic> SirBob1701: stuck with fluxbox for a few years, it does the job and I'm too lazy to switch
[03:53] <Tarkus> are there more linux desktop users than mac OSX users?
[03:53] <SirBob1701> i used fluxbox for a bit but a few of my apps kill it
[03:53] <kitsuneofdoom> Tarkus: no.
[03:53] <Emanu> I've troubles with lm-sensors on Dell PowerEdge 700 server
[03:53] <k1gwb> wow that's a lot of exclamation marks
[03:54] <jrib> craigbass1976: the Alternate Install CD has a text-based install, but afterwards it still uses the gui
[03:54] <felipe__> sorry guys
[03:54] <kitsuneofdoom> k1gwb: apparently, it will help people look at my problem.
[03:54] <felipe__> no one was answering bac from my 1st post
[03:54] <malalo> anyone know what GRUB Stage1.5 error 15 means ?
[03:54] <dyrne> craigbass1976: alt-ctrl-f2 then login then sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg then sudo /etc/init.d/gdm restart
[03:54] <slackmagic> SirBob1701: one of my latest ones, http://www.slackmagic.com/uploads//files/02272007_4441_1680x1050.png
[03:54] <Tarkus> kitsuneofdoom, i wonder why. lol
[03:54] <Mikeh> kitsuneofdoom, he was being sarcastic ;)
[03:54] <bobsumone_> linux rocks
[03:54] <IndyGunFreak> malalo: google "Grub Error 15".. there's a  page, although I don't know the link, that lists the reasons for all grub errors
[03:54] <will__> does anybody know a website with some proftpd tutorials on it?
[03:54] <Aresilek> How do I get it so kubuntu runs a command in the shell whenever a dvd is inserted?
[03:54] <craigbass1976> dyrne, This is for boting fmro the livecd?  I haven't installed it yet.
[03:54] <bobsumone_> im so happy, I got the server working like I want it!
[03:55] <dyrne> craigbass1976: livecd or from an installed.
[03:55] <SirBob1701> slackmagic: holy crap where can i get that theme?
[03:55] <kitsuneofdoom> Mikeh: and I was being sarcastic right back.
[03:55] <ritalin> got the whole top diamond and the bottom rose gold
[03:55] <dyrne> craigbass1976: choose vesa when prompted for your graphics driver
[03:55] <dyrne> craigbass1976: default for everything else should work
[03:55] <jrib> Aresilek: you may want to try #kubuntu as well, I know gnome has system -> preferences -> removable drives and media.  Or, just look straight into writing udev rules (google these three words for a nice guide)
[03:56] <Jordan_U> Aresilek, I know how to do it in Gnome, you may get better help for KDE in #kubuntu
[03:56] <slackmagic> SirBob1701: wallpaper from deviantart, fluxbox theme modified version of ikaru's, conky my own stuff ...
[03:56] <SirBob1701> hmm
[03:56] <SirBob1701> slackmagic: what irc you use and what mp3 player/
[03:57] <kitsuneofdoom> Ok, I've had a problem or problems recently, my touchpad at some point randomly loses the scrolling ability, and firefox randomly closes, once when I was opening a link from gnome-terminal. It usually happens when I'm opening a new tab somehow, perhaps it's a RAM problem. Removing all my config files from a user's home folder doesn't help. On a laptop, Ubuntu 7.04, 32 bit.
[03:57] <IndyGunFreak> kitsuneofdoom: i've had that same problem with Firefox, but when it updated the other day, it seems to have fixed it.
[03:57] <slackmagic> SirBob1701: off the screenshot you see irssi, and xmms...lately i've been using mpd / ncmpc for music and i'm still on irssi..imo best-non-bloaty irc client for the job
[03:58] <nir> what's the thunderbird help channel?
[03:58] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: Ok I booted with the parameter of toram and I got no errors. How do I test to see if it really worked? Take out the CD?
[03:58] <kitsuneofdoom> IndyGunFreak: what's the latest version?
[03:58] <Watchman_> hey guys...whats the difference between the option Ubuntu low latency, and the option Ubuntu generic on the grub screen?
[03:58] <zuez> hey folks, does anyone run Ubuntu on a macbook pro?
[03:58] <IndyGunFreak> kitsuneofdoom: i'm using 2.0.0.4
[03:58] <orbisvicis> later
[03:58] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, I guess :)
[03:58] <kitsuneofdoom> IndyGunFreak: I don't think that's the problem, because I am too.
[03:58] <Jordan_U> zuez, I do
[03:58] <zuez> I'm contemplating picking up the new macbook pro and running linux on it
[03:59] <zuez> Jordan_U: nice, any issues with Beryl?
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> kitsuneofdoom: ok.. it may not be, but like i said, i was having exact problem you describe, and since i updated, its not done it.
[03:59] <zuez> Jordan_U: was just curious if the general experience is hassle free
[03:59] <maeth> i installed vmware and im using windows xp, now, the windows inside vmware doesnt recognize the ethernet card driver
[03:59] <maeth> (windows , lol )
[03:59] <dyrne> zuez: id just get a nice asus or something. but im not an osx fan
[03:59] <kitsuneofdoom> IndyGunFreak: maybe if I reinstalled firefox...
[03:59] <bigredcherokee> I have a compaq Presario laptp m2105us Ubuntu dosn't see the wireless card when I boot to live cd.
[03:59] <Jordan_U> zuez, It has an ATI card, and it requires fglrx, I would go with a macbook since it has intel graphics and everything works out of the box
[03:59] <IndyGunFreak> kitsuneofdoom: maybe.. or you could try opera
[03:59] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: when I press the eject button my my drive, nothing happens :P
[04:00] <will__> maeth you have to bridge the connection to your ethernet in linux
[04:00] <zuez> Jordan_U: hrm, the default cards are NVIDIA on the new mbp
[04:00] <davef> maeth: I know there is something about that in the manual for vmware, XP removed the driver.  That driver is in pretty much every other OS.
[04:00] <sam000> Jordan_U: I'm in the terminal
[04:00] <craigbass1976> OMG, This looks like it may require a bios update, but Dell's updates install from Windows, which is totally borked.  Am I reading stuff wrong?  Isn't there a way to update bios by booting from a cd or something?
[04:00] <Jordan_U> zuez, Really!?! I fell cheated now :(
[04:00] <SirBob1701> hmm
[04:01] <Jordan_U> sam000, Are you in the chroot also?
[04:01] <maeth> davef, k thanks, alltough i just found the driver on the intel webpage... thanks anyway :D
[04:01] <sam000> how do I get there
[04:01] <Watchman_> hey guys...whats the difference between the option Ubuntu low latency, and the option Ubuntu generic on the grub screen?
[04:01] <will__> crappp sorry i had that question backwards lol
[04:01] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: it wont let me eject the cd when I press the button.
[04:01] <Jordan_U> sam000, Is your system partition mounted?
[04:01] <nofxx> Watchman_: I would like to know that too
[04:01] <Emanu> ehm
[04:01] <sam000> it's on a seperate disk
[04:01] <dyrne> craigbass1976: they dont provide a floppy image or anything?
[04:02] <Emanu> nobody know lm-sensors?
[04:02] <Paddy_EIRE> why dont canonical start releasing Linux Desktops and Notebooks so that a lot of us can see how well Linux is supposed to run (we are not all tech heads).
[04:02] <craigbass1976> dyrne, all I see is an .exe.
[04:02] <Pelo> Emanu,  what is your issue with lm-sensors ?
[04:02] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, Ok, it probably didn't work then, but if you are feeling adventurous you can find out just how resilient Linux can be to problems that would BSOD windows in a second.....
[04:02] <craigbass1976> dyrne, I can't complain though, they're putting Ubuntu on new boxes now...  WHat's past is past
[04:02] <dyrne> craigbass1976: heh well id be reluctant to do it using wine
[04:02] <IndyGunFreak> Paddy_EIRE: Dell has started to release PC's w/ ubuntu installed, and second, Ubuntu runs perfect on my custom PC
[04:02] <Emanu> Pelo, it didn't work
[04:03] <Emanu> Pelo, I've Poweredge 700 server
[04:03] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, You have the Ubuntu iso on the hard drive correct?
[04:03] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: that is correct.
[04:03] <Pelo> Emanu, look in this wiki for instructinons on how to setup sensors properly   http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty
[04:03] <sam000> Jordan_U: sudo chroot /mountpoint doesn't work
[04:04] <dyrne> craigbass1976: that must have some bois flash support now that dell is selling ubuntu boxes
[04:04] <SirBob1701> everyone see that turkey definately invaded iraq?
[04:04] <xenex65593> does anyone know a program that monitors your system on the desktop?
[04:04] <xenex65593> i've seen it in screenshots
[04:04] <BiTMAP> how so xenex65593?
[04:04] <ko> Hi all. When I try to "airodump-ng wlan0 --ivs -w airdump1" it gives me the error "ioctl(SIOCSIWMODE) failed: Device or resource busy, Error setting monitor mode on wlan0". It gives me this error even if I manually get the device into monitor mode... any ideas? (or can someone suggest where else I can ask this?)
[04:04] <xenex65593> displays your processor cpu load, ram usage, etc
[04:04] <Paddy_EIRE> IndyGunFreak, in your case yes (most likely a tech head :P) and I no about dell although I have read many reports stating that that very dell hardware still has runs better on on win? so they are not doing themselves any favours and I wish they would
[04:04] <SirBob1701> xenex65593:  http://www.slackmagic.com/uploads//files/02272007_4441_1680x1050.png  like on there?
[04:05] <Pelo> SirBob1701, iraq is turning into a bus terminal, everyone and their cousin is in there
[04:05] <mEck0> how do I choose where I want to save a file in vim with the :w command? I have tried :w filename /directory/directory, but doesn't work :(
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> Paddy_EIRE: i'm not a tech head
[04:05] <xenex65593> sort of, the one i am thinking about has a whole table
[04:05] <sam000> Jordan_U?
[04:05] <SirBob1701> Pelo: ya it is freaking dump
[04:05] <IndyGunFreak> i just know how to read
[04:05] <xenex65593> its not as simple as that one
[04:05] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, OK, without ejecting the CD navigate to the iso, choose to burn and at the last possible step before inserting the blank CD force eject the CD and insert the blank one, my guess is that Linux will keep on chugging as long as it doesn't need to get any data from the CD :)
[04:05] <ko> xenex65593: Sytem->Administration->System Monitor ?
[04:05] <xenex65593> nope
[04:05] <nefarous> Question - I have a ton of packages (dpkg -la) that are marked as "rc" - removed / configuration ... how do I purge these all the way?
[04:05] <SirBob1701> slackmagic: what are you using to monitor all your tempatures and such?
[04:05] <Jordan_U> sam000, Is your partiton with Ubuntu installed mounted?
[04:05] <dyrne> craigbass1976: call
[04:05] <dyrne> and bug dell
[04:06] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: how do I force eject the cd?
[04:06] <sam000> it's not a partition it's a seperate disk
[04:06] <ko> xenex65593: that program does everything you asked for, what else are you looking for?
[04:06] <dyrne> craigbass1976: linux support 866-622-1947
[04:06] <Paddy_EIRE> IndyGunFreak, I have seen you on here and yes believe it or not you are in comparison to joe dimebar who just wants his machine to do exactly what it says on the tin
[04:06] <xenex65593> ko: for it to display on the desktop..?
[04:06] <slackmagic> SirBob1701: my systems are 5 years old or older, I don't really need to see their temperatures
[04:06] <egbill3eagle> Looking for help with Dapper server and vmware server installation
[04:06] <ko> xenex65593: at all times?
[04:06] <xenex65593> yes
[04:06] <ko> ah ok
[04:06] <Punkunity> I was wondering if there are any cool widgets like the clock thats on vista's desktop
[04:06] <SirBob1701> what do you guys recommend for playing games parallels, cedega or other?
[04:06] <Punkunity> ??
[04:06] <Paddy_EIRE> IndyGunFreak, anyhow you KNOW what I mean
[04:07] <sam000> Jordan_U: no, it's not mounted
[04:07] <xenex65593> SirBob1701, what is that program in that ss?
[04:07] <TheDebugger> Punkunity: I like cairo-clock
[04:07] <SirBob1701> slackmagic: okey dokey
[04:07] <mneptok> Punkunity: sudo apt-get install gdesklets
[04:07] <maeth> how can i transfer files to a Virtual Machine ? a windows Virtual Machine
[04:07] <Punkunity> i want to put soem cool things onto my desktop like a temp guage or a clock or the weather
[04:07] <Jordan_U> chozandrias, There is usually a little hole for a paperclip on most CD ROM drives, remember though that from the OS's point of view this is the same as ripping out the hard drive you are booted from so I can't guarentee it will work, but it should be fun to try :)
[04:07] <SirBob1701> xenex65593: no idea its slackmagic's ss
[04:07] <AmyVeeres> I'm sorry for being rude, but I would really like to know what I'm doing wrong to cause it to be unable to locate an RSDP whatever that is. @_@
[04:07] <dyrne> SirBob1701: some good native games like tremulous and such. also savage 2 etc.
[04:07] <IndyGunFreak> Paddy_EIRE: no, i really dont... i've found 99% of my answers by simply using google... the rest i pick uphere
[04:07] <Jordan_U> sam000, Do you know how to mount it?
[04:07] <Punkunity> ty mneptok TheDebugger
[04:07] <craigbass1976> dyrne, EGHADS!  Kubuntu 6.10 works like a charm!
[04:07] <GreySim> Does anyone know how to set up the automatic swap that LTSP uses under regular Ubuntu Feisty? I have a diskless Ubuntu PXE booting, and I've gotten NBD swap running, but it's all manual at the moment, and from what I can tell LTSP/Edubuntu has a way of doing it automatically...
[04:07] <SirBob1701> i wanna check out savage2 looks good
[04:07] <xenex65593> slackmagic, what is that program?
[04:07] <mneptok> xenex65593: PM?
[04:08] <Pelo> Punkunity,  if you are using beryl or compiz look into screenlets,  if not try gdesklets
[04:08] <xenex65593> mneptok, hmm?
[04:08] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: ok im going to try it.
[04:08] <will__> for windows games thought cedega works pretty well
[04:08] <slackmagic> xenex65593: which program?
[04:08] <dyrne> craigbass1976: nice
[04:08] <Punkunity> mneptok, after it installs where is the prog located?? administr???
[04:08] <mneptok> xenex65593: may. i. PM? :)
[04:08] <xenex65593> slackmagic, the one with the system stats on top on the desktop
[04:08] <xenex65593> mneptok, sure
[04:08] <slackmagic> xenex65593: just conky
[04:08] <Emanu> Pelo, I've red, -> "No sensors found!"
[04:08] <sam000> Jordan_U: i tried and it didn't work how?
[04:09] <Punkunity> does anyone recommend any other cool shoffy-type of programs for feisty??
[04:09] <craigbass1976> dyrne, I was trying for regular dapper.  For a new user coming from windows, would you recommend Kub or regular ub?  I know KDE looks a little more like xp, and I never cared (happy with flux or xfce) but what do you think?
[04:09] <yohanes_chin> hi all, I want to install ubuntu feisty for my friend's laptop, but he doesn't have internet connection or difficult to connect from his home or office. I heard we can make dvd for installing extra repositories, can someone give me the step-by-step url/link of that process? Thanks.
[04:09] <Pelo> Emanu,  I know some comps get their info throught acpi or some such ,  check for infor in this guide http://book.opensourceproject.org.cn/distrib/ubuntu/unleashed/
[04:09] <Punkunity> pelo how do i get screenlets and i have beryl and all but which is the best setup??
[04:09] <Jordan_U> sam000, First look in Gparted or "sudo fdisk -l" to find the device name for the partition Ubuntu is installed on ( /dev/something )
[04:09] <Emanu> Pelo, ok
[04:09] <Paddy_EIRE> IndyGunFreak, this is alien to most, although I do understand you I will defend Linux to the death, but it just needs Mr. Mark Shuttleworth to "open" more of his funds and put those desktops/laptops out there... As in Lin Branded Open sourse hardware and software!
[04:09] <craigbass1976> yohanes_chin, can you get online sometime somewhere after the install, even for an hour or so?
[04:09] <dyrne> craigbass1976: well kde is nice but gnome is maybe a little cleaner. kde has some better native apps k3b for cd burning for instance is pretty much the standard
[04:09] <Pelo> !screenlets | Punkunity
[04:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about screenlets - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:09] <feba> craigbass1976: it's personal preference. I'd use GNOME, it's easier to use IMO, and more people use it, not to mention KDE has too many bundled apps, again IMO
[04:09] <Pelo> hmm
[04:10] <Pelo> Punkunity,  google for screenlets
[04:10] <Punkunity> should i google it pelo?
[04:10] <SirBob1701> anyone got any good thinkpad specific apps. also does anyone know how to permantly set the touchpad to act only like a 2 way scroll wheel?
[04:10] <feba> yohanes_chin: look up Apt on CD or Apt for CD or something like that on google, it should be what you need
[04:10] <GreySim> SirBob1701: xournal might be along the lines of what you're asking for, I *think*.
[04:10] <Paddy_EIRE> IndyGunFreak, system 76 apparently have been doing this for quite a while but they cost a fortune!!
[04:10] <IndyGunFreak> Paddy_EIRE: i don't know.., i've set up several PC's w/ ubuntu, and rarely ran into a problem, what exactly are you tryihng to do that you can't do?
[04:10] <craigbass1976> dyrne, and feba, the question is then, do I feel like another download.  That would be three iso files today... Kubuntu it is
[04:10] <yohanes_chin> craigbass: it'll be difficult, plus internet is somewhat expensive in here.
[04:10] <sam000> Jordan_U: ok
[04:10] <Pelo> Emanu, try just putting the sensors-applets for the gnome pannel in the gnome pannel,  it might be that you donT' need lm-sensors at all
[04:11] <SirBob1701> GreySim: thanks i'll check it out
[04:11] <IndyGunFreak> Paddy_EIRE: never heard of them, adn the simple thing, just build your own
[04:11] <yohanes_chin> feba: Ok I'll looking for that. thanks for the information
[04:11] <dyrne> craigbass1976: you can have both on same system just sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop if youve installed kde and choose between gnome or kde at the login screen
[04:11] <Jordan_U> sam000, Then run: sudo mkdir /chroot && sudo mount /dev/whatever /chroot && sudo mount -o bind /dev /chroot/dev && sudo mount -o bind /proc /chroot/proc && sudo chroot /chroot
[04:11] <feba> craigbass1976: remember that once you're running kubuntu, should should be able to just sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop if you want to change
[04:11] <davef> I can't get lpr to work.  All the gui print toools are fine, but lpr gives 'no default printer'.  I have cupsys-bsd installed, but it still doesn't work.
[04:11] <wizard> EVA
[04:11] <dyrne> feba: heh
[04:11] <craigbass1976> dyrne, Oh that;s right.  I remember doing that once.  Doh!
[04:11] <Jordan_U> sam000, Replace /dev/whatever with the correct device name
[04:11] <IndyGunFreak> since i finally completely switched to Linux, this is the first time i've had a PC longer than a year.
[04:11] <patryk> hello im looking for some help with starting azureus in ubuntu
[04:11] <Emanu> Pelo, it's a server ;)
[04:11] <wastrel> linux
[04:11] <Paddy_EIRE> IndyGunFreak, maybe I am frustrated at my lack of Linux exp over win, which is Bug #1 :)
[04:11] <GreySim> SirBob1701: I misunderstood your question actually. Nevermind the xournal thing.
[04:11] <patryk> i get unindentified error
[04:11] <khin> oh btw. say i want to enable the root account on my system. it asks me for the pass but i don't (never?) knew it. is there any way to enable root?
[04:11] <craigbass1976> patryk, what's azureus?
[04:11] <feba> craigbass1976:  just remember that it's kinda messy. I installed kubuntu-desktop, played with it a little, and then had to spend quite a bit of time cleaning it up
[04:11] <SirBob1701> GreySim: ya i looked it up in aptitude and was like huh?
[04:12] <GreySim> SirBob1701: There is something called gsynaptics, I think, that does the scrollwheel stuff.
[04:12] <Pelo> Emanu, type sensors , does anything come up ?
[04:12] <PanzerMKZ> man I like linux
[04:12] <chozandrias> Jordan_U: ok I have a serious problem. I physically ejected the ubuntu cd and everything is running but, I cant get the drive to register the blank cd. None of the buttons on the drive work.
[04:12] <SirBob1701> GreySim: ok
[04:12] <wastrel> EVA
[04:12] <patryk> azureus is a bittorrent client
[04:12] <IndyGunFreak> Paddy_EIRE: now you're getting to the root of the problem, you think cuz you're good with Windows, you should be good at LInux, i had the same problem, once you accept they are two totally different beasts, and you need to completely relearn the OS, you'll do better, at least i did.
[04:12] <Emanu> Pelo, sensors is hashed (/usr/bin/sensors)
[04:12] <Pelo> !cn | wastrel
[04:12] <ubotu> wastrel: For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[04:12] <craigbass1976> chozandrias, paperclip in the little hole should do it
[04:12] <GreySim> SirBob1701: If that's not it, just search for synaptic and I'm sure you'll find it.
[04:12] <Jordan_U> khin, You can enable root, but what is wrong with using sudo ?
[04:12] <julian> do i need to use wpa_supplicant to connect to an AP using wpa2 or can i just use iwconfig & ifconfig
[04:12] <wizard> wastrel
[04:12] <julian> ??
[04:12] <sam000> Jordan_U: ok
[04:12] <feba> khin: you shouldn't ever use the root account. If you mean you cannot use sudo and things like that, I don't think there's a way to get the password without reinstalling
[04:12] <zeeeee> help, for some reason i was able to install a package but it seems it's got broken dependencies: "iBA liblablgtk2-gnome-ocaml"
[04:12] <Pelo> Emanu,  you just left my confort zone
[04:12] <zeeeee> how do i resolve this?
[04:13] <Punkunity> pelo theres pretty poor information regarding this screenlet for beryl
[04:13] <dyrne> khin: you need to reset your password?
[04:13] <khin> sudo is evil. i want root!
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> zeeeee: did you install the package with synaptic, ?
[04:13] <zeeeee> IndyGunFreak, with aptitude
[04:13] <wastrel> khin:  sudo -i
[04:13] <cryptnix> then install debian
[04:13] <cryptnix> ;-)
[04:13] <Pelo> zeeeee, in synaptic, use the filter button to see the broken packages, and reinstall them
[04:13] <IndyGunFreak> ok.
[04:13] <Jordan_U> sam000, Ok, are you at a prompt like "root@mycomputer:~#" ?
[04:13] <feba> khin: running as root is extremely dangerous. You could probably su yourself, but you really should use sudo
[04:13] <patryk> i installed azureus using ubuntu package mngr
[04:13] <xjdriver69> what is the chmod var to set read/write on child object?
[04:13] <Pelo> Punkunity,  holdon
[04:13] <patryk> but it doesnt start
[04:13] <felipe__> Hi, can anyone help me out with cpu freq scalling ?
[04:13] <sam000> Jordan_U: right
[04:13] <patryk> heap error
[04:13] <khin> i dont why running as root is supposed to be so dangerous. dont all the other distros do it?
[04:13] <davef> khin: sudo -i
[04:14] <khin> er dont get
[04:14] <zeeeee> Pelo, is there any way to do this from the command line?
[04:14] <Jordan_U> sam000, OK, now run: sudo apt-get install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-desktop
[04:14] <Pelo> zeeeee,  probably but I don't know it
[04:14] <feba> khin: running as root lets programs do whatever they want, it's the reason why Windows is so insecure
[04:14] <Pelo> Punkunity, http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/screenlets/?q=node/15
[04:14] <davef> khin: all the rest recomend not using root, but use sudo.  Best practices and all.
[04:14] <craigbass1976> dyrne, ahh balls.  I got all excited but things locked up when the little X pointer showed up and the mouse wouldn't work
[04:15] <julian> can I connect to an AP using WPA2 with only iwconfig & ifconfig or do I need to use this wpa_supplicant???
[04:15] <Pelo> zeeeee,  man apt and man apt-get see if there is anything in there about repairing broken dependencies
[04:15] <dyrne> craigbass1976: locked up or can you alt-ctrl-f2 still?
[04:15] <Punkunity> ty pelo, thats nice
[04:15] <compilerwriter> khin root has god-like powers.  He says it and it is done.  Thus you can easily screw stuff up as root.
[04:15] <feba> khin: running as sudo is just a good practice to have, not to mention the fact that it protects you from yourself and other people using your computer
[04:15] <zeeeee> Pelo, ok, i just ran "sudo aptitude reinstall liblablgtk2-gnome-ocaml" but that didn't change anything
[04:15] <sam000> Jordan_U: ok
[04:15] <zeeeee> i mean
[04:15] <Jordan_U> zeeeee, "sudo apt-get -f install"
[04:15] <zeeeee> it did reinstall
[04:15] <zeeeee> but it's still marked broken
[04:15] <Jordan_U> sam000, Did that install any packages?
[04:16] <sam000> Jordan_U: yep
[04:16] <felipe__> Hi, can anyone help me out with cpu freq scaling ?
[04:16] <zeeeee> Jordan_U, that seemed to do nothing
[04:16] <patryk> why doesnt the azureus start
[04:16] <patryk> wtf
[04:16] <Jordan_U> sam000, Ok, then you are probably done, try rebooting
[04:16] <kitsuneofdoom> Ok, I've had a problem or problems recently, my touchpad at some point randomly loses the scrolling ability, and firefox randomly closes, once when I was opening a link from gnome-terminal. It usually happens when I'm opening a new tab somehow, perhaps it's a RAM problem. Removing all my config files from a user's home folder doesn't help. On a laptop, Ubuntu 7.04, 32 bit. P.S. Opening a lot of tabs seems to trigger it, it might be a RAM
[04:16] <dyrne> khin: i would argue that the bsd standard of requiring users to be a member of wheel group to su is a little better but its largly a matter of opinion
[04:16] <sam000> Jordan_U: bye
[04:16] <khin> yeah ok. well, in principle anyway, if i dont know what the root password is, is there any way to enable the account at all
[04:16] <Pelo> patryk,  you need java to run azureus
[04:16] <patryk> i have java
[04:17] <davef> patryk: Did azureus used to work?
[04:17] <patryk> though it starts and crashes
[04:17] <Pelo> patryk,   utorrent on wine
[04:17] <compilerwriter> yes khin there is, but there is really no need to do it.
[04:17] <patryk> lol i hate wine :)
[04:17] <Pelo> patryk,  ktorrent
[04:17] <patryk> let me see
[04:17] <khin> point me to the abyss.
[04:17] <patryk> Unexpected Signal : 11 occurred at PC=0xD0B7CC34
[04:17] <dyrne> khin: just set a password for root using sudo. if you decide to disable it again just passwd -l root
[04:17] <Pelo> patryk,  deluge torrent
[04:17] <PanzerMKZ> rtorrent is good to
[04:17] <Jordan_U> zeeeee, Can you pastebin the error you get from apt?
[04:17] <patryk> my azuareus error
[04:17] <wastrel> khin:  if you have to ask how to enable root, it's an indication that you lack an understanding of how security and user management works on linux systems
[04:17] <patryk> azureus
[04:18] <zeeeee> Jordan_U, no error
[04:18] <craigbass1976> dyrne, rebooted.  Now I can move the X around, but I'm waiting to see what I've got when the cd stops spinning
[04:18] <khin> alright then, lets break stuff!
[04:18] <Pelo> patryk,  #azureus-support
[04:18] <feba> khin: wastrel is correct
[04:18] <dyrne> craigbass1976: bear in mind livecd can be buggy. i usually use alternate install cd
[04:18] <zeeeee> Jordan_U,  "0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded."
[04:18] <patryk> hey
[04:18] <chump> patryk:  transmission is kinda good
[04:18] <patryk> how do you uninstall using apt
[04:19] <mcquaid> this annoys me from time to time.  I just tried to watch a trailer, and it's playing but so slow and stuttering.  And not due to connection speed, I can see it's coming in fast
[04:19] <craigbass1976> dyrne, I didn't see that option.  Is it something you have to type special?
[04:19] <Pelo> patryk,  sudo apt-get remove
[04:19] <patryk> im gonna go with ktorrent
[04:19] <patryk> i guess
[04:19] <patryk> thanks
[04:19] <mcquaid> so I waited for it to complete and copy the mplay file out of /tmp
[04:19] <feba> khin: Running your computer as root is sorta like a squad car that never turns off it's sirens. Sure, it's possible, but it's going to cause more problems than it will save time
[04:19] <mcquaid> and then it plays fine in mplayer
[04:19] <nicatron> hello?
[04:19] <mcquaid> i use the mplayer plugin btw and not the totem one
[04:19] <Jordan_U> patryk, sudo apt-get remove ( optionally with --auto-remove to remove dependencies you no longer need ) <package name>
[04:19] <mcquaid> can someone try this trailer?
[04:19] <nicatron> Anyone?
[04:19] <nicatron> ??
[04:19] <nicatron> ?/?/
[04:20] <dyrne> craigbass1976: no a diff iso. there is alternate, server, and livecd the alternate is just the normal text based installer that was standard a few versions ago
[04:20] <Jordan_U> !hi | nicatron
[04:20] <mcquaid> http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/americangangster.html
[04:20] <ubotu> nicatron: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[04:20] <jack|ass> was there a very recent (last couple days) update to ubuntu that would hose MD?  Now when I boot, grub throws "error 17, cannot find partition"
[04:20] <chump> hi nicatron
[04:20] <Pelo> nicatron,  this is a busy channel if you want help just ask a question
[04:20] <mneptok> jack|ass: Dell?
[04:20] <jack|ass> mneptok: no, custom built.  Intel board.
[04:20] <craigbass1976> dyrne, oh, I was supposed to get the server iso?  Man...
[04:20] <nicatron> Um why do i get so many errors in Xubuntu 7 when i update the install list?
[04:21] <mneptok> jack|ass: your hd*,* entries in menu.lst are incorrect
[04:21] <Pelo> nicatron, what error ?
[04:21] <dyrne> craigbass1976: not server iso maybe just the alternate. the livecd works fine as an installer i just tend to have crappy systems so livecd is very slow and sometimes its a problem. most people install using it though
[04:21] <mneptok> jack|ass: try editing the default boot line to be hd0,2
[04:21] <nicatron> um let me check...
[04:21] <zeeeee> anybody
[04:21] <Jordan_U> mneptok, I need to go but it seems you know how to help jack|ass , remember to tell him to edit the automagic kernel section so the changes persist
[04:21] <jack|ass> mneptok: i thought that too (and i thinkt hat's right) but if i change it to boot off hd1 (like it should be) it still freaks.
[04:22] <nicatron> Oh it cant connect with archive.ubuntu.com
[04:22] <dfgas> an yone print out photos in linux.? what i am getting at how well is it?? i have a photosmart 7660 and we print alot of 4x6 borderless with tabs on it. is that going to be all good
[04:22] <CokeMan> i keep randomly having my computer screen repeat in a horizontal fashion a repeating pattern and my entire pc locking. what is this and why?
[04:22] <mneptok> jack|ass: try editing the default boot line to be hd0,
[04:22] <Pelo> nicatron, some servers might be down
[04:22] <mneptok> jack|ass: try editing the default boot line to be hd0,1
[04:22] <lgc_> How can I know which version of Flash I have installed? Thanks.
[04:22] <mneptok> gah
[04:22] <dyrne> dfgas: depends entirely on the printer
[04:22] <jack|ass> hd0 is a windows drive.
[04:22] <nicatron> ???????Ooo
[04:22] <will__> anybody have any perticular experiance with proftpd?
[04:23] <nicatron> does Xubuntu support WPA-PSK2?
[04:23] <eshaase> where can i find a network install .iso image to install the latest version of ubuntu?
[04:23] <Pelo> g'night folks
[04:23] <dyrne> dfgas: check out linuxprinting.org  or you can do a google search like site:linuxprinting.org printermodel
[04:23] <nicatron> does Xubuntu support WPA-PSK2?
[04:23] <dyrne> eshaase: /msg ubotu install
[04:23] <nicatron> ??
[04:23] <nicatron> ???
[04:23] <nicatron> ?
[04:23] <dfgas> nicatron, it depends on the drivers for your wireless
[04:24] <wastrel> dfgas:  linuxprinting.org says the 7660 "works perfectly"
[04:24] <dfgas> it works for mine in windows but it doesn't in llinux, so i use ndiswrapper
[04:24] <nicatron> Okay... I'll check universe
[04:24] <dfgas> wastrel,
[04:24] <craigbass1976-al> dyrne, ok, I'm at the download page on Ubuntu's site.  I check the box for the alternate desktop CD, and this is the file I last burned.  It looked no different, and acted no different, than the other one I got.  Am I doing something wrong?
[04:24] <dfgas> cool
[04:24] <dfgas> heh
[04:24] <jack|ass> yeah, looks like the grub update was retarded and made it point to hd0,0
[04:25] <jack|ass> nicatron: yes.
[04:25] <lgc_> How can I know which version of Flash I have installed? Thanks.
[04:25] <DSpair> Hey gang, where can I get a list of the standard source package repositories... When I removed the check in Synaptic, it deleted them from the sources.list file.
[04:26] <felipe__> I need help with this freakin cpu freq scalling. It does not respond. Stays at max
[04:26] <compilerwriter> khin the abyss ---> http://www.ducea.com/2006/06/21/ubuntu-how-to-enable-the-root-account/
[04:26] <DSpair> felipe__: It's likely a permissions problem.
[04:26] <felipe__> i followed some guide onine to no avail, can you guide me through it?
[04:26] <nicatron> whats the thinky called that lets you run a windows driver on linux?
[04:26] <dyrne> craigbass1976-al: its been a while since i used it but the alternate used to drop you at a prompt where you could hit enter for default or type a few diff things like server to just install the base system with no gui.. if it says alternate id guess it is but it shouldnt boot to livecd
[04:27] <savetheWorld> windiswrapper
[04:27] <DSpair> felipe__: Nope, I don't know how... I would start by checking your DBUS coniguration though.
[04:27] <CokeMan> i keep randomly having my computer screen repeat in a horizontal fashion a repeating pattern and my entire pc locking. what is this and why? I would like to know why my PC is crashing before it happens again. :(
[04:27] <eshaase> dyrne: thanks
[04:27] <craigbass1976-al> dyrne, well then...  That's spiffy.  I'll hunt aroudn the messages boards some more
[04:28] <SirBob1701> slackmagic: does gaim work under fluxbox or is thier anothor program like it that works better?
[04:28] <Smegzor> Why do I consistently get slow download speeds (50k/sec typically) in Ubuntu while I consistently get 200k/sec+ under Windows?  I have ADSL and an external router.  Is there something I can do to speed it up?
[04:29] <GreySim> Okay, different question then. I have DHCP, TFTP, and NFS all working to give me PXE booting right now. If I install ltsp-server, will it try to reconfigure all that?
[04:29] <bpds> Does anyone know how to get sound recording to work in feisty?  It worked fine in Edgy.

[04:42] <stumpleit> I am having big problems getting my ATI radeon 1600 that is in my macbook pro to work, could someone maybe send me a link or some advice?
[04:42] <TheMafia> I am trhing to verify my emai laddress on ekiga and it says 404 not found?
[04:42] <dyrne> Punkunity: you can compile it sure but it is a little trouble. no big deal but it takes some effort. what is the name of the app your are trying to install?
[04:42] <cad_> i installed these update and upgrade packages, what are they?
[04:42] <maeth> dyrne, i think i found a way... i connected a USB pendrive
[04:43] <maeth> dyrne, but the thing , when i tested it... it worked fine, but now...
[04:43] <dyrne> maeth: thats why youre the king
[04:43] <darkrift_> anyone here able to help me get a broadcom wifi working on kubuntu (i know there is a kubuntu chan, but i figure this isnt specific to kde)
[04:43] <maeth> dyrne, it shut down the usb controller on linux
[04:43] <darkrift_> i tried fwcutter, and that gives me a 10k connection
[04:43] <dyrne> maeth: in vmware?
[04:44] <darkrift_> and ndiswrapper leaves me with nothing (it wont load on reboot)
[04:44] <maeth> dyrne, nop , it shut it down on linux
[04:44] <Punkunity> i have the file called screenlets-0.0.7.tar.bz2_FILES
[04:44] <mneptok> darkrift_: fwcutter is the best solution
[04:44] <Punkunity> dyrne look up sorry
[04:44] <craigbass1976> darkrift_, really...  I got the whole shebang with fwcutter
[04:44] <maeth> dyrne, i know cause the Case has a led when its powered up
[04:44] <maeth> dyrne, and now is off
[04:44] <darkrift_> it gave me 10k max speeds
[04:44] <maeth> dyrne, how do i turn it on?, or must i restart???
[04:44] <darkrift_> unusable
[04:44] <cas3> do I actually need to recompile my kernel to install lirc?
[04:44] <dyrne> maeth: in vmware there is a menu that lets you toggle the usb port from vmware or the host system i know about where it is in vmwareserver but not player
[04:44] <Punkunity> dyrne how do i compile it
[04:45] <darkrift_> then i tried ndiswrapper, but it seems there is already a driver for it
[04:45] <darkrift_> maybe i have the wrong firmware for fwcutter
[04:45] <dyrne> maeth: id /join vmware and ask might get lucky
[04:45] <craigbass1976> darkrift_, what do you get for errors as far as ndiswrapper?
[04:45] <Punkunity> isnt there ever an easy way to download and install a program on ubuntu??
[04:45] <clever> Punkunity: i didnt have to recompile the kernel to make lirc work
[04:45] <wastrel> Punkunity:  sudo apt-get install programname
[04:45] <cas3> Punkunity "sudo synaptic"
[04:45] <clever> Punkunity: but i did need kernel headers so the lirc module it made would fit the kernel
[04:45] <jrib> Punkunity: what can be easier than APT or synaptic?
[04:45] <darkrift_> darkrift@HP:/media/sda1/sp34488$ sudo ndiswrapper -l
[04:45] <darkrift_> Password:
[04:45] <darkrift_> bcmwl6 : driver installed
[04:45] <darkrift_>         device (14E4:4311) present (alternate driver: bcm43xx)
[04:45] <crdlb> Punkunity, there's a repository for screenlets
[04:46] <darkrift_> seems its installed
[04:46] <jrib> !paste | darkrift_
[04:46] <ubotu> darkrift_: pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[04:46] <Punkunity> wastrel try it then that doesnt work for this file
[04:46] <craigbass1976> darkrift_, I wonder.  I got mine working and never gave it another thought.  USed ndiswrapper for fedora 4 and 5, but I have edgy on now and it worked fine.  What's the chipset?
[04:46] <darkrift_> sorry
[04:46] <dyrne> Punkunity: check synaptic first there are thousands upon thousands of programs available for easy download. its rare for you to have to grab a file like that
[04:46] <darkrift_> didnt think 3 lines was a problem
[04:46] <jrib> Punkunity: APT uses online repositories, you don't download files manually
[04:46] <Punkunity> does anyone here have screenlets??
[04:46] <Punkunity> for beryl??
[04:46] <dyrne> Punkunity: if you like you can paste the url of the tar.bz2 file and ill look at it
[04:46] <stumpleit> I am having big problems getting my ATI radeon 1600 that is in my macbook pro to work, could someone maybe send me a link or some advice?
[04:46] <darkrift_> its broadcom 43xx i guess
[04:46] <wastrel> Punkunity:  what file?
[04:46] <cad_> hello?
[04:46] <cas3> broadcom sux
[04:47] <Punkunity> http://hendrik.kaju.pri.ee/screenlets/?q=node/5 dyrne
[04:47] <darkrift_> im finding that out
[04:47] <darkrift_> but others have gotten it to work
[04:47] <darkrift_> they just have more experience then me i guess
[04:47] <craigbass1976> darkrift_, hmm.  Mine is a 4306.  Wonder what happened with yours.
[04:47] <Punkunity> dyrne http://compiz.org/Desktop_Screenlets
[04:47] <cas3> if you use ndiswrapper it will
[04:47] <Punkunity> those files
[04:47] <cas3> but I'd rather just get a card
[04:47] <kRabbit_dt> Hey room.  I'm a new linux user and trying to get php and mysql to play nicely together.  phpmyadmin errors stating cannot load mysql extentions.
[04:47] <darkrift_> im broke
[04:47] <darkrift_> lol
[04:47] <darkrift_> cant afford a card for a while
[04:47] <Punkunity> and everything i download goes to the desktop by default thats where i have it and the extracted file right now
[04:48] <darkrift_> anyone know the command to run fwcutter from command line?
[04:48] <darkrift_> i forgot it
[04:48] <jrib> Punkunity: scroll down: "There is a Ubuntu repository available with the latest version..."
[04:48] <darkrift_> gonna try a diff fw
[04:48] <Punkunity> wastrel, try sudo apt-get install screenlets
[04:48] <cas3> darkrift I think you can use windows drivers too
[04:48] <darkrift_> i tried cas3
[04:48] <cad_> I'm trying to fully install the things I need to start using my computer as a development box. I was told that I need to type something like sudo apt-get install updates && sudo apt-get install upgrades. What am I doing? Also - how do I retrieve commands I issued from a previous session?
[04:48] <craigbass1976> darkrift_, it's been a while, but I know I followed a tutorial on the ubuntu forums.  It's in there somewhere
[04:48] <Punkunity> jrib i followed all of those directions already nothing is working
[04:48] <wastrel> Punkunity:  there's no package called "screenlets"
[04:48] <cas3> *shrug*
[04:48] <Punkunity> i know wastrel
[04:48] <jrib> Punkunity: pastebin your /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:48] <jrib> !pastebin > Punkunity (see the private message from ubotu)
[04:49] <cas3> do I have to recompile a kernel to get lircd working? or can I just use the daemon?
[04:49] <dyrne> Punkunity: jrib the install is a setup.py so it might not be hard to install
[04:49] <jrib> dyrne: it's not hard at all, they provide an ubuntu repository
[04:50] <dyrne> oh :)
[04:50] <cas3> broadcom needs to recognize the linux community
[04:50] <Punkunity> jrib http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24529/
[04:51] <bruenig> cas3, 1% of market share, eh
[04:51] <jrib> Punkunity: I don't see the repository in there
[04:51] <Punkunity> well what the helll
[04:51] <darkrift_> anyone know where fwcutter firmware files go?
[04:51] <Punkunity> i have every repository that i can think of jrib
[04:51] <darkrift_> so i can go delete tehm all
[04:52] <Punkunity> im gonna freak out soon here
[04:52] <Jordan_U> darkrift_, /lib/firmware Why are you deleting them?
[04:52] <jrib> Punkunity: you don't need every repository, just the one they tell you to add on the page (http://compiz.org/Desktop_Screenlets).  Do you see that?
[04:52] <Punkunity> ive tried to gety a few people into ubuntu, but its so much more dificult then windows sometimes that it scares them away
[04:52] <darkrift_> because i wanna start over
[04:52] <cas3> bruenig yeah but linux is standardization, while proprietary isnt
[04:52] <darkrift_> cause the firmware i used is obviously the wrong one
[04:53] <bruenig> cas3, still no payoff
[04:53] <cafuego> darkrift_: I have a package, which works with 4306 and 4318 cards
[04:53] <Punkunity> jrib i copied and pasted all that command stuff into the terminal and hit enter after each one, now what do i do??
[04:53] <Jordan_U> darkrift_, If you are using feisty fwcutter will automatically grab the firmware you need
[04:53] <darkrift_> how do i find out exactly what mine is?
[04:53] <darkrift_> i think its 4311
[04:53] <cafuego> darkrift_: http://ubuntu.cafuego.net/dists/feisty-cafuego/bcm43xx/
[04:53] <Punkunity> i di that like 20 minutes ago jrib, like 3 times too
[04:53] <jrib> Punkunity: no, you have to actually read the words.  The first one is preceded by: "To use it please add the folowing to your sources.list file"
[04:53] <cas3> bruenig: more people able to use your products = more sales
[04:54] <darkrift_> device (14E4:4311) present (alternate driver: bcm43xx)
[04:54] <darkrift_> thats what mine says in ndiswrapper
[04:54] <cafuego> I dunno if the 4311 is supported, but you could try anyway.
[04:54] <darkrift_> ok
[04:54] <cafuego> nduiswrapper does *not* use firmware files
[04:54] <bruenig> cas3, but the amount of people able to use it doesn't make any impact.
[04:54] <Jordan_U> darkrift_, Are you using feisty?
[04:54] <bulmer> which software to convert a scanned image with .pnm extension into something that a microsoft windows users can view or display?
[04:54] <Arrick> !webmin
[04:54] <ubotu> webmin is no longer supported in Debian and Ubuntu. Please avoid using it.
[04:54] <jrib> Punkunity: do you understand what that means/
[04:54] <bruenig> cas3, amount of new people*
[04:54] <zak_> is there a channel for pot heads?
[04:54] <Punkunity> jrib what do i view the sources.list file with natively?? it keeps messing up
[04:54] <dyrne> i dated a punk girl once. had tatoos all over the place weird ones like bubble gum wrappers with faces and stuff
[04:54] <jrib> Punkunity: gksudo gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:54] <Arrick> ok, I would like to use webmin, anyone know what the repos are for it, and the complete package name?
[04:54] <Jordan_U> !offtopic | zak_
[04:55] <ubotu> zak_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[04:55] <dyrne> er thats not exactly on topic sorry
[04:55] <wastrel> !webmin > Arrick
[04:55] <Dr_willis> Arrick,  proberly best to use the source for webmin (well may be best to NOT use it, i like it also, be sure to lock it down to the local lan)
[04:56] <stumpleit>  okay i have another wierd problem when i start X my mouse moves all over the place by itself how can I fix that?
[04:56] <Jordan_U> Punkunity, System -> Administration -> Software Sources or "gksu gedit /etc/apt/sources.list
[04:56] <Jordan_U> "
[04:56] <Arrick> yeah Dr_willis I plan on it
[04:56] <Punkunity> jrib i think i got it now, im not used to all this code stuff, im used to point, click, and its done installing, all graphical exe file styles, not all this mumbo
[04:56] <Arrick> I like its interface for building vhosts
[04:56] <draconpern> what's the difference between using add/remove and synaptic?
[04:56] <yarddog> Arrick:
[04:56] <darkrift_> cafuego:
[04:56] <darkrift_> do i need to reboot after that?
[04:57] <Arrick> yeah yarddog
[04:57] <Dr_willis> draconpern,  simpiler interface to synaptic.
[04:57] <yarddog> i had to make sure i was in the right channel
[04:57] <v3n0m> bruenig: you around?
[04:57] <bruenig> v3n0m, I am, address the channel if you would
[04:57] <Punkunity> jrib i have feisty and in the sources file is this line:::  ## Medibuntu - Ubuntu 6.10 feisty fawn
[04:57] <Punkunity> ## Please report any bug on https://launchpad.net/products/medibuntu/+bugs
[04:57] <Arrick> Dr_willis, can you show me correct syntax for a vhost in httpd.conf, so i dont have to use webmin, and the restart of apache doesnt throw errors on the edit?
[04:58] <darkrift_> and to whoever asked, im using kubuntu 7.04
[04:58] <Punkunity> jrib does that make sense??? feisty 6.10???? i thought it was 7.04????
[04:58] <Dr_willis> Arrick,  nope. Ive never used that feature of webmin, or httpd.
[04:58] <v3n0m> bruenig: I will, but I wanted to let you know that the thing you asked me to do ayer, delete the ICEauthority and Xauthority didn't work =/
[04:58] <bruenig> Punkunity, that is third party, they can be as retarded as they want
[04:58] <Jordan_U> Punkunity, I think you probably used a sed script that replaced all instances of edgy with feisty
[04:58] <cas3> bruenig: that doesnt make sense to me, if more people can use it than more people would buy broadcom.  If you can't use it, you wouldn't buy it. I wouldn't buy a laptop that had a broadcom chip, just because I couldn't use it. Or if I couldn't use google then they arent meeting their potential revenue
[04:58] <v3n0m> it reported the list of errors similar to before, but without the two lines on ICEauthority and Xauthority
[04:58] <jrib> Punkunity: no, I suspect that's an overzealous sed.  Do remove line 45 with the edgy medibuntu repos though
[04:58] <bpds> Can anyone help with sound recording in feisty?  Lost ability to record after upgrade from edgy.
[04:58] <cas3> I dunno
[04:59] <Arrick> Dr_willis, you've never used apache?
[04:59] <Dr_willis> Arrick,  just to play with.
[04:59] <cas3> can anyone help me with lircd?
[04:59] <Arrick> ahh ok
[04:59] <Punkunity> Jordan_U, fesity replaced windows and that was all about 2 months ago maybve...i never had edgy ever
[04:59] <Dr_willis> Arrick,  does MythWeb count? :)
[04:59] <Phuz> anyone here good with groups and permissions for directories?
[04:59] <Phuz> Basically, what I'm looking to do is make a group where everyone within it has read write execute permission on a certain folder, in addition to whatever permissions they may already have
[04:59] <craigbass1976> Phuz, what do you need?
[04:59] <Phuz> And then set that directory to be accessable to only users in that group, and www-data
[04:59] <Punkunity> jrib, you want me to erase that line where it says that??
[04:59] <jessie^^> what package provides 'dig', etc?
[04:59] <bruenig> cas3, right but it is like handicap people, if you made ramps to your store, more handicap people would use it right? But the number of handicap people is not large enough to justify the money or effort it would take to do that. Which is why in US, you have to force them to do it with the American with Disabilities Act.
[05:00] <Arrick> Dr_willis, Im going to be putting some generic configs on my website tonight, when I get it setup all the way, so that people can use them and just edit them to work for them
[05:00] <Punkunity> gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
[05:00] <Punkunity> bryan@bryan-desktop:~$
[05:00] <Jordan_U> Punkunity, Then I agree with bruenig, it also shows why you should keep third party repos to a minimum, if they are that careless...
[05:00] <jrib> Punkunity: you can erase those comments if you want but make sure you erase: deb http://medibuntu.sos-sts.com/repo/ edgy free non-free
[05:00] <GreySim> Phuz: All I know is, be careful with groups. If you accidentally lose the group with admin rights on your only user with admin rights, it can be a hassle to fix.
[05:00] <craigbass1976> Phuz, So make a group called data, put some people in it,.. Chgrp the folder in quesiton to data
[05:00] <jessie^^> anyone?
[05:01] <craigbass1976> Someone stop me if I'm wrong...
[05:01] <jrib> !please > jessie^^ (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:01] <Phuz> GreySim, I'm not setting up the groups, and the person who is has root access
[05:01] <cad_> how do i play dvds in in ubuntu?
[05:01] <bruenig> !dvd | cad_
[05:01] <ubotu> cad_: 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
[05:01] <Dr_willis> !dvd
[05:01] <cad_> what software/codecs do i need to install
[05:01] <cad_> oh
[05:01] <Dr_willis> heh i was too slow.
[05:01] <cad_> thank you
[05:01] <jrib> jessie^^: dnsutils provides 'dig', use packages.ubuntu.com or !apt-file in the future
[05:01] <bruenig> !thanks | cad_
[05:01] <ubotu> cad_: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[05:01] <GreySim> Phuz: Cool. Just making sure, 'cause I ended up reinstalling earlier after making a mistake with groups. (There's a less destructive way to fix it, but any way it goes is at least a minor hassle, IIRC.)
[05:01] <cad_> really ubotu?
[05:02] <jessie^^> jrib: you don't need to take an attitude with me.
[05:02] <jessie^^> jrib: thanks hon.
[05:02] <cad_> wow, there are some serious turing test issues going on here
[05:02] <jrib> jessie^^: you misinterpreted, just letting you know of other resources...
[05:02] <Jordan_U> cad_, ubotu is called whenever people use !topic
[05:03] <tyler_d> how would I be able to tell if my dial up modem was installed properly.... reason being is that I am trying to send faxes with errors.... feisty fawn 704...?
[05:03] <MaddOps> Ok.  just installed Kubuntu, but it goes black when I try to load it. how do I get to add the nvidia-xconfig -add-argb-glx-visuals for my 8800GT
[05:03] <bruenig> Jordan_U ruins everything
[05:03] <craigbass1976> Phuz, did you get my pm?
[05:03] <MaddOps> it also seems not to recognize my login and password either.
[05:04] <Phuz> Yeah, did you get mine
[05:04] <Phuz> ?
[05:04] <Jordan_U> MaddOps, Do you have caps lock on?
[05:04] <MaddOps> I don't believe so.

[05:07] <Punkunity>  jrib
[05:07] <CokeMan> Dr_willis, yeah, it seems to be when i make my panels go in and out from the screen, i had two on top of each other, one was just a panel if tasks and it seems when i reboot, applications start goign under it and then i inevietably crash like that, i've since removed it and so far so good.
[05:07] <MaddOps> question: what do the r and o commands do in the bootline before quiet and splash?
[05:07] <cas3> bruenig: your right the initial funds will be costly, but the reward pays itself off after time. How much is the 1% worth after the accumulation of time. Good point though, but the US also has to force companies to hire minorities too. How much money does that 1% generate anyways? Because most linux-zealots I know like to buy all kinds of gadgets
[05:07] <jrib> Punkunity: please use http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org in the future
[05:08] <darkrift> ok, it semi worked
[05:08] <cad_> Jordan, no i didn't
[05:08] <darkrift> im about 50k now :S
[05:08] <darkrift> lol
[05:08] <cad_> let me try
[05:08] <darkrift> 5x faster, but about 10x slower then my conn should be
[05:08] <Punkunity> sorry i forget jrib but i think i do have it now
[05:08] <Punkunity> 30 percent done
[05:08] <draconpern> any ideas how to get recording via sound recorder to work?  My sound output works just fine.
[05:09] <wastrel> ale8one:  you can't resize the partition if you're currently using it,  boot from the install CD and resize from there.
[05:09] <ale8one> rgr thanks
[05:09] <bruenig> cas3, the hire minorities things is irrelevant. My point was that if it were financially better for them to, they would. That is capitalism. Perhaps not all companies are completey effecient, but the ones who aren't get weeded out. Just like handicap people, if it were truly helpful, they would.
[05:10] <gregcha117> is there anyway to get bootnext to work on ubuntu?
[05:10] <darkrift> ok, it worked
[05:10] <darkrift> but speedtest sucked
[05:10] <darkrift> i just got a dl from easynews (in my state) at 800k :)
[05:10] <darkrift> thank you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[05:11] <darkrift> ive been working on this for days and whoever posted that deb package link fixed it!
[05:11] <darkrift> installing firefox at a good speed now
[05:11] <all> darkrift, Your welcome ;)
[05:11] <darkrift> lol
[05:11] <darkrift> funnny guy
[05:11] <khin> what the gui called in ubuntu? gnome?
[05:11] <MaddOps> yep
[05:11] <Jordan_U> khin, Yes
[05:12] <Jordan_U> khin, Gnome
[05:12] <darkrift> i take it most ppl here like gnome better
[05:12] <White_Lightning> Ok, so knetworkmanager is being a bitch. It won't list any wireless networks (I know that I'm connected, I'll get to that) and it won't let me change the manual stuff. By deleting the ESSID (for the millionth time) it finally connected to one of the local wireless networks here and I was able to log on. The problem is that A. I can't select the network I want B. It's not listing the networks that are in the building (and there are several) C. it
[05:12] <White_Lightning> won't let me change settings the way it should and D. it's picking networks on it's own. Any ideas?
[05:12] <Dr_willis> darkrift,  not always :)
[05:12] <khin> how do i open my home folder in a gnome window from the terminal
[05:12] <Sir_Skeleton> HORAY ILL NEVER HAVE A GIRLFRIEND CAUSE I JUST INSTALLED LINUX!
[05:12] <MaddOps> I just installed kubuntu.  But am fighting with my 8800GT to see it.
[05:12] <darkrift> Sir_Skeleton: you should get a wife first then
[05:12] <darkrift> not as easy for them to leave you
[05:12] <cas3> bruenig, I'm just saying they're not capitalist enough :)
[05:13] <kRabbit_dt> hey room, i'm having a real problem getting mysql and php to play together.  Can anyone help me out/
[05:13] <Punkunity> i had to run all kinds of updates and update missing stuff, but itas getting there i thik jrib ty
[05:13] <Dr_willis> MaddOps,  ive heard the nvidia drivers have issues with 8800 cards.   but i dont have one. :) so cnt tell ya more.
[05:13] <draconpern> I am having problem using my microphone. :(
[05:13] <gregcha117> khin: with root priveleges "sudo nautilus /home/"
[05:13] <draconpern> or recording anything for that mater
[05:13] <wastrel> khin:  nautilus ~
[05:13] <White_Lightning> MaddOps I have a friend with that card and he got feisty working. Not sure what he had to do or anything, but there's hope
[05:13] <khin> thanks
[05:13] <wastrel> gregcha117:  never run nautilus with sudo,  use gksudo if you need root privs in nautilus
[05:14] <drif> Sir_Skeleton: just get one running linux as well.. works for me atleast
[05:14] <bruenig> cas3, if we get bigger they will. I always make sure all my stuff is compatible. The only problem is that most linux users are switchers. They have a computer first, learn of linux and decide to put it on. But they have already bought the hardware. Perhaps down the line if you have initial linux users getting new computers and laptops it will become more apparent.
[05:14] <MaddOps> they do.  But I heard using sudo nvidia-xconfig -add-argb-glx-visuals when in KUbuntu works, but how cand I do it outside in the command line.
[05:14] <darkrift> now installing beryl with apt-get
[05:14] <darkrift> wish me luck
[05:14] <cas3> how much money does it cost for a compay to give away it's source?
[05:14] <darkrift> none
[05:14] <darkrift> but
[05:14] <darkrift> .... nevermind
[05:14] <darkrift> lol
[05:15] <gregcha117> does anyone know of an alternative to bootnext for ubuntu, i tryed installing it using the fedora package but it didnt work ?
[05:15] <v3n0m> can someone help me with this I can't log in it reports errors 644 and something about ICEauthority
[05:15] <bpds> Can anyone help with sound recording in feisty?  Lost ability to record after upgrade from edgy.
[05:15] <mneptok> Sir_Skeleton: do you have something meaningful to contribute to the discussion?
[05:15] <draconpern> any ideas on how to record sound?
[05:15] <Jordan_U> cas3, According to the BSD guys at least, the real reason they don't release specs / source is that their hardware is a buggy mess and the specs would reveal that
[05:16] <cas3> Jordan_U, yeah I think I heard someone mention that on lugradio
[05:16] <Dr_willis> Jordan_U,  heh - gotta love unprobeable (either way) statements :)
[05:16] <cad_> jordan, it still doesn't seem to work
[05:16] <draconpern> bpds, I am having the same problem... :(
[05:16] <craigbass1976> bpds, still no help, huh?  Sound plays all right though?
[05:16] <jrib> !xhangs > bpds (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:16] <cad_> installed the libdvdread3
[05:16] <jrib> !xhangs > v3n0m (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:16] <craigbass1976> !xhangs
[05:16] <ubotu> If the GUI hangs after logging in, use <ctrl><alt><f1> to switch to text mode. Log in and do: rm .{X,ICE}authority
[05:17] <jrib> bpds: wrong person, sorry
[05:17] <bruenig> Jordan_U, I think there is something to that. It is always nicer to know that people don't have your source code. When they have, at least for me, I get far more paranoid and anxious because I don't want people looking at it and going "what an idiot, he did all of this, when he could have just done this and made it much shorter"
[05:17] <bpds> craigbass1976: sound is fine.  i can even hear line-in input...just can't record
[05:17] <cad_> and did the sudo /usr/blah blah blah command to activate the css thing, but still no
[05:17] <cas3> bruenig, yeah but those people calling you an idiot will make your program soo much better
[05:17] <craigbass1976> bpds, I can't help at all, just curious, and I feel bad that you haven't gotten an answer yet.
[05:18] <craigbass1976> bpds, do you multitrack with Ardour?
[05:18] <jrib> bpds: sound recorder is buggy, use something else to test your recording
[05:18] <Jordan_U> Dr_willis, Well not exactly un-probeable ( as in probe, I think that's what you meant right? ) because they have reverse engineered hardware and found it to be buggy "every time"
[05:18] <bpds> craigbass1976: No i just record cassettes and lps with audacity
[05:18] <v3n0m> jrib: I did that followed by startx and it comes up with a host of errors
[05:18] <craigbass1976> bpds, Ahh
[05:18] <jrib>  v3n0m what errors?
[05:18] <CokeMan> where is the config file for panels that i create on my desktop?
[05:19] <jrib> CokeMan: somewhere in gconf
[05:19] <Limbeaux> how do you install a microsoft webcam?
[05:19] <jrib> !webcam > Limbeaux (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:20] <bpds> jrib: thanks.  i just tried sound recorder because audacity didn't work
[05:20] <chylli> hi , all
[05:20] <ludesign> fucking MYSQL
[05:20] <chylli> I have a problem,
[05:20] <eshaase> if I use the "minimal CD" to install ubuntu over a network will it result in the same system as if i had installed from a CD or will it have updated packages?
[05:20] <mneptok> !ohmy > ludesign
[05:20] <Jordan_U> eshaase, Yes
[05:20] <chylli> I use ubuntu 7.04 server, apache2, mod_perl2
[05:20] <jrib> bpds: well check that it isn't muted (use alsamixer or double click on the speaker).  I thought my mic wasn't working because of sound recorder, until I tried to use ekiga and everything was fine.  I later found a bug about sound recorder on launchpad
[05:20] <bpds> jrib:  arecord -vv /dev/null only show 1% input level
[05:20] <chylli> but I got an error: /usr/sbin/apache2(apr_global_mutex_lock+0x31)[0x8065f41] 
[05:20] <ludesign> mneptok: heh, it's not funny dude
[05:21] <mneptok> ludesign: it's not meant to be
[05:21] <chylli> anyone can help me ???
[05:21] <Vaske_Car> how to edit PDF files from Ubuntu?
[05:21] <ludesign> mneptok:  :)
[05:21] <mneptok> ludesign: lose the profanity, please
[05:21] <CokeMan> jrib, where is that? /etc/gconf?
[05:21] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[05:21] <jrib> CokeMan: type 'gconf-editor' in a terminal
[05:21] <ludesign> sorry.
[05:21] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i write on a ntfs partition?
[05:21] <mneptok> s'ok
[05:21] <Punkunity> jrib it says it all installed, but i cant find how to use it, man im dumb
[05:21] <craigbass1976> ludesign, what's your MySQL issue?
[05:21] <jrib> !ntfs-3g > Azhi_Dahaka (see the private message from ubotu)
[05:22] <draconpern> is there any kind of utility that I can use to spectrum the mic? since sound recorder isnt recommended.
[05:22] <Perun> are the distro-updates in ubuntu "painless"?
[05:22] <mneptok> Perun: yes
[05:22] <chylli> I use ubuntu 7.04 server, apache2, mod_perl2, but I got an error: /usr/sbin/apache2(apr_global_mutex_lock+0x31)[0x8065f41]  , who can give me a tip ?
[05:22] <Azhi_Dahaka> is it part of Edgy?
[05:22] <Perun> mneptok: ever?
[05:22] <jrib> Punkunity: are you still on the web page?  I think it had instructions
[05:22] <draconpern> I can't even tell if sound recorder is recording....
[05:22] <chylli> sorry, wrong
[05:22] <mneptok> Perun: hm?
[05:22] <ludesign> craigbass1976:  nevermind, thanks:)
[05:22] <chylli> *** glibc detected *** /usr/sbin/apache2: corrupted double-linked list: 0x097d2660 ***
[05:22] <craigbass1976> chylli, have you searched apache sites for the answer?  Or asked in their chat?
[05:22] <chylli> that's error message
[05:22] <wastrel> Perun:  if you follow the instructions they're relatively painless
[05:23] <Perun> wastrel: oh ok
[05:23] <mneptok> chylli: you installed apache from the repos?
[05:23] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: it is not in edgy's official repositories, but the link ubotu gave you explains how to obtain it
[05:23] <chylli> craigbass1976:  I searched , but found nothing
[05:23] <Punkunity> hmmm....yeag i am, but it says something about a daemon and i did all that stuff
[05:23] <chylli> mneptok: yes
[05:23] <Azhi_Dahaka> will it install on Dapper
[05:23] <Azhi_Dahaka> ?
[05:23] <mneptok> chylli: and you get this message when exactly?
[05:23] <craigbass1976> chylli, try #apache
[05:23] <Punkunity> and i checked and it said that the daemon was already running when i started it in the terminal
[05:23] <chylli> craigbass1976: ok, thanks
[05:24] <chylli> mneptok: when I start a catalyst application
[05:24] <jrib> Punkunity: do you have a tray icon with some options maybe?  Remember this thing looks like it's early in development
[05:25] <Punkunity> jrib, i see nothing new on the tray on top jrib
[05:25] <mneptok> chylli: i'd look at Catalyst as the culprit
[05:25] <Perun> what a pkg manager uses ubuntu server? aptitutde?
[05:25] <craigbass1976> chylli, or #perl, but I think perl folks hang on a different irc server.
[05:25] <draconpern> so can someone help me with recording sound?
[05:25] <tyler_d> nvidia 8800... trying to enable tv out? anyone here done it or know how?
[05:25] <Jordan_U> Perun, apt-get or aptitude
[05:25] <bruenig> !tvout | tyler_d
[05:25] <ubotu> tyler_d: For help with enabling the TV-Out, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOutNewbieEdition (Nvidia cards) or http://wiki.cchtml.com/index.php/Tvout (ATI cards, *untested*)
[05:26] <bpds> draconpern: try arecord -vv /dev/null in a terminal. if you aren't getting input, like me the input level will be zero or very low, like 1% or so.
[05:26] <Ghost_Auk> Howdy
[05:26] <bruenig> !howdy | Ghost_Auk
[05:26] <ubotu> Ghost_Auk: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:26] <tyler_d> bruenig: ty
[05:26] <bruenig> !thanks | tyler_d
[05:26] <ubotu> tyler_d: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[05:26] <wastrel> speaking of upgrades i may have finally found a reason to upgrade my breezy box :p
[05:26] <Ghost_Auk> thxs  bruenig
[05:26] <bruenig> !thanks | Ghost_Auk
[05:26] <ubotu> Ghost_Auk: You're welcome! But keep in mind I'm just a bot ;-)
[05:27] <gregcha117> how do i install initng on ubuntu?
[05:27] <Ghost_Auk> ahh, do you have a date for saturday night?  :-)
[05:27] <bruenig> !find initng
[05:27] <ubotu> Package/file initng does not exist in feisty
[05:27] <bruenig> gregcha117, what is that
[05:27] <ludesign> craigbass1976:  I've solved my own problem, thank you for your friendly offer to help me. :)
[05:27] <draconpern> bpds, I get 00%
[05:28] <jrib> Punkunity: maybe reading through http://forum.compiz.org/viewtopic.php?t=358&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 will help?
[05:28] <kuru> I would like to have a directory created /var/run/something at boot-up
[05:28] <jrib> Punkunity: also, look for documentation in /usr/share/doc/screenlets
[05:28] <kuru> everytime I reboot, this directory I created disappears
[05:28] <Punkunity> ty jrib you have done plenty i think that this is gonna be a bitch for anyone
[05:28] <Punkunity> ok ty jrib
[05:28] <kuru> where can I make sure it gets created with the appropriate ownerships?
[05:28] <bpds> draconpern: Yup.  we are unlucky.
[05:28] <gregcha117> bruenig: its a replacement for initrd thats supposed to be much faster
[05:29] <gregcha117> i found some installation directions but they seem to be outdated
[05:29] <bruenig> kuru, it shouldn't disappear I wouldn't think but add the mkdir command to /etc/rc.local and chmod it and whatever else you need to do to it
[05:30] <draconpern> bpds, so there's no way to troubleshoot this?
[05:30] <kuru> bruenig, cool, thanks
[05:30] <chylli> sigh, #perl tell me to ask here again.
[05:30] <wastrel> perl eh
[05:31] <nux_usr> Did the Ubuntu folks drop support for Breezy in the repos?  I'm getting lots of error 404's when I try to apt-get update...  :-(
[05:31] <v3n0m> jrib&bruenig: http://img475.imageshack.us/my.php?image=1020509ph4.jpg
[05:31] <wtfkd> help?
[05:31] <bruenig> v3n0m, oh wow you need to fix your monitory, it looks terrible, all blurry
[05:32] <bpds> draconpern: I haven't found any workable solutions on the forums.  I'd search the bug reports to see if anything comes up.  I hate to say it but I have a windows box that records just fine.
[05:32] <bruenig> s/monitory/monitor
[05:32] <wtfkd> i cant install my realtek audiocard under ubuntu :@
[05:33] <bruenig> v3n0m, rm all of that stuff .dmrc .ICEauthority and .Xauthority, also when you finish don't try startx because x is already running in ctrl + alt + f7
[05:33] <Punkunity> jrib what directory is it in again??? etc/??
[05:33] <jrib> v3n0m: you sure X isn't already running?  (just reboot if you want to be sure without checking)
[05:33] <Mustang_Matt> I installed from a ubuntu server disc on accident. Is it as easy as aptitude install ubuntu-desktop;aptitude remove ubuntu-server to switch?
[05:33] <draconpern> wtfkd, welcome to group..:(
[05:33] <jrib> Punkunity: /usr/share/doc/screenlets  should contain documentation if it exists
[05:33] <kuru> how do I know what filesystem a certain partition is in?
[05:33] <Punkunity> and i cannot find anyway to get this going either, does anyone know how to get the supposed beryl plugins for screenlets and other stuff
[05:33] <jrib> Mustang_Matt: that should work
[05:34] <wtfkd> i id yesterday
[05:34] <bobsumone_>  im getting slow folder views on XP to ubuntu server
[05:34] <bobsumone_>  any idea what might speed this up?
[05:34] <Ahadiel> Punkunity: What do you mean by screenlets?
[05:34] <sx66> how do you edit the font color on the panel?
[05:34] <wtfkd> yesterday it was working ! but today i fuked up my atheros card and then reinstalled and no wi have internet but no audio
[05:34] <wtfkd> lol
[05:34] <sx66> !font color
[05:34] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about font color - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:35] <sx66> !font
[05:35] <ubotu> 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
[05:35] <Dr_willis> bobslaede,  clarify that a bit? You are saying the shared folders (shared by xp) are sluggish to show contents on the linux box? using Konqueror?
[05:35] <Dr_willis> bobslaede,  or what filemanager.
[05:35] <v3n0m> one sec fell
[05:35] <v3n0m> as
[05:35] <wastrel> sx66:  your gnome panel appearance is contrlled by the gtk2 theme
[05:35] <Dr_willis> grr woong nick.. sorry bobslaede
[05:35] <Punkunity> jrib i am in /usr/share/doc and i do not see screenlets
[05:36] <jrib> Punkunity: then I guess there isn't any documentation
[05:36] <cad_> how do i install gstreamer?
[05:36] <jrib> cad_: the library?
[05:36] <Ghost_Auk> kuru,  go to a terminal, and use fdisk to look at each disk
[05:36] <Punkunity> Ahadiel, go here http://forum.compiz.org/viewtopic.php?t=358&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 and here http://compiz.org/Desktop_Screenlets
[05:36] <Punkunity> oh wow, this is the most out of control thing ever lol
[05:36] <sx66> wastrel, where would I find the panel appearance?
[05:37] <v3n0m> jrib&bruenig: ok I'll rm those three and then ctrl+alt+f7 and log back in through the gui?
[05:37] <wastrel> sx66:  in the gtk theme file?
[05:37] <jrib> Punkunity: ah, do you have the "widget-plugin" enabled in compiz?
[05:37] <bruenig> v3n0m, yeah
[05:37] <Punkunity> i dont know jrib.....where is that??
[05:37] <v3n0m> bbl
[05:37] <bruenig> my xchat isn't spell checking
[05:38] <jrib> Punkunity: no idea, I don't use compiz much, but http://compiz.org/Desktop_Screenlets says you need it
[05:38] <wastrel> bruenig:  i turn that off
[05:38] <Punkunity> jrib i have beryl installed do i have compiz??
[05:38] <yigal> does anyone have a blackberry?
[05:38] <jrib> Punkunity: no
[05:38] <bruenig> wastrel, how do you turn it off?
[05:38] <Punkunity> brb
[05:38] <wtfkd> i like blueberrys and cherries :)
[05:38] <superchode> can anyone help with digital output w/ NF4 sound?
[05:38] <jrib> Punkunity: maybe you should ask in #ubuntu-effects or #beryl, someone there has probably used this
[05:38] <wastrel> bruenig:  settings > preferences > input
[05:38] <yigal> wtfkd: I like rasberries, and strawberries - blackberries are my favorite
[05:38] <bobsumone_>  Dr_willis: sorry afk
[05:39] <superchode> not able to universally set device as hw:0,2 - even though that works nicely if i set it manually in XMMS
[05:39] <bobsumone_>  Dr_Willis: actually, I have shares on the Ubuntu Server that are shared as mapped drives to XP
[05:39] <bobsumone_>  2 mapped, one is a folder (apache www)
[05:39] <bruenig> wastrel, all I have for that is use the tet box font and colors and automatic nick completeion options
[05:39] <clouder`grr> camorama only works when I run it with sudo, is it safe to give user permission to /dev/video0 ?
[05:40] <yigal> does anyone use a BlackBerry smart phone?
[05:40] <ethereal> looking for a little help with .mkv files, I have all the other restricted formats working, but this one just won't play the file in totem, or gxine
[05:40] <wastrel> bruenig:  xchat-gnome?   i dunno, i've got a "spell check" checkbox there
[05:40] <jrib> clouder`grr: what does 'ls -ld /dev/video0' return?
[05:40] <wastrel> bruenig:  i assume you have aspell or ispell?  maybe it hides the widget if you don't have spellcheck libs installed.
[05:40] <thugren> Hey I am get an error on my updates
[05:40] <bobsumone_>  Dr_Willis: its a samba share btw, im the one with the slow browse speeds in case u forgot
[05:40] <thugren> with samba
[05:41] <thugren> Doing the new update I get a error 102?
[05:41] <clouder`grr> crw-rw---- 1 root video
[05:41] <bruenig> wastrel, hmm, looks like it was compiled with: --enable-spell=none
[05:41] <bruenig> wastrel, that doesn't look good
[05:41] <jrib> clouder`grr: ah, so just make sure your user is in the "video" group
[05:41] <bobsumone_>  Dr_Willis: you still there?
[05:41] <mEck0> which package contains CSprite.h? I'm programming with SDL a bit and the compiler said that this headerfile is missing
[05:41] <bobsumone_>  damnit i lost my help
[05:41] <bobsumone_>  lol
[05:41] <clouder`grr> jrib: that makes sense, thanks
[05:41] <nux_usr> Did the Ubuntu folks drop support for Breezy in the repos?  I'm getting lots of error 404's when I try to apt-get update...  :-(
[05:42] <helfrez> nux_usr, either bad sources.list or a mirror is down
[05:42] <wastrel> nux_usr:  breezy is out of its support lifecycle, so there's no new updates, but the repos should still be up
[05:43] <p1ls> how can i unpack tons of .tar files in linux?
[05:43] <nux_usr> helfrez:  It seems the mirror is up, but the packages gzip file(s) are not on the server (error 404's)
[05:43] <p1ls> with one command
[05:43] <yigal> p1ls: use the wildcard
[05:43] <Ahadiel> p1ls: man tar
[05:43] <Ahadiel> and use a wildcard
[05:43] <yigal> p1ls: *
[05:43] <helfrez> nux_usr, ur particular mirror may have dropped the breezy files...thats a possibility
[05:44] <jbalint> Hi, anybody know if Ubuntu will work on nvidia 680 mobo using HW raid? i ran the installer and it shows separate drives.
[05:44] <SirBob1701> when you download a fluxbox theme where do you put the buttons ?
[05:44] <nux_usr> helfrez:  I tried several with the same results...
[05:44] <helfrez> nux_usr, if you want a stable base i would recommend LTS sp1
[05:44] <helfrez> breezy is pretty old
[05:44] <clouder`grr> jrib: thanks again, worked like a charm
[05:45] <helfrez> in releases for ubuntu, not days
[05:45] <Dr_willis> jbalint,  some 'hw' raids are just semi-hardware-raids ive discovered.
[05:45] <nux_usr> helfrez:  I will be upgrading sometime but I wasn't quite ready yet.  It took a while to get things configured just the way I like on my laptop.
[05:45] <SochBat> hey guys
[05:45] <jbalint> Dr_willis: when i installed windows, its showing as 1 partition with no additional drivers
[05:45] <albert> 
[05:46] <Jordan_U> !hi | SochBat
[05:46] <ubotu> SochBat: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:46] <Dr_willis> jbalint,  unless windows allready had the drivers there. You putting windows and linux onthe same raid?
[05:46] <jbalint> Dr_willis: yeah
[05:46] <Perun> hmm does have the ubuntu xen kernel a patch for cool'n quiet?
[05:46] <nux_usr> helfrez:  I just hope support hasn't been completely dropped for Breezy.  Maybe they are updating the mirrors and I am just catching them in the transition.
[05:46] <wastrel> !cn | albert
[05:46] <ubotu> albert: For Ubuntu help in Chinese  #ubuntu-cn  #ubuntu-tw   #ubuntu-hk
[05:46] <Born_In_Xixax> hi, im trying to play an .avi in totem from a samba share on my 802.11b LAN.  If I double click the file in Nautilus, my network util goes to ~35 K down and also up (5% of the available bandwidth) and nothing plays.  What's the best way to load or launch remote video files like this?
[05:46] <Dr_willis> jbalint,  hmm..  You might want to reserach that a bit. Ive not that much raid experience other then a few (badly done) onboard raid systems.
[05:47] <Jordan_U> nux_usr, Official support for breezy ended a while ago, the repositories may still be up but you really should upgrade
[05:47] <jbalint> Dr_willis: yeah, didnt see anything on initial search (graphics was already an issue), so i thought i'd try her.e thanks
[05:47] <Dr_willis> jbalint,  i play it safe and keep windows and linux on their own hd's so they dont get rough with each other. :)
[05:48] <helfrez> nux_usr, yeah breezy could start falling off repos at any moment
[05:48] <jbalint> Dr_willis: yeah, i might have to rethink what i'm doing
[05:48] <p1ls> nothing about rar in man tar
[05:48] <nux_usr> Jordan_U and  helfrez ,  Understood and I agree.  I just don't look forward to the upgrade.  :-(
[05:48] <v3n0m> jrib&bruenig: I get the same errors =/ (I did ctrl+alt+f1>sudo rm .dmrc, sudo rm. Xauthority, sudo rm .ICEauthority,>ctrl+alt+f7 and I log in and I get the following: (http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24364/))
[05:49] <cad_> ok jordan
[05:49] <Dr_willis> jbalint,  lets say that my 'raid' experiments have been a letdown
[05:49] <helfrez> you already have a cast iron stomach if your still runnign breezy
[05:49] <cad_> i installed every file the help page told me about
[05:49] <cad_> but i'm still getting no dvd love
[05:49] <v3n0m> http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24364/
[05:49] <simoncpu_linux> grrrrr.... stupid ubuntu x-chat
[05:49] <simoncpu_linux> i don't want to autoconnect here
[05:49] <jbalint> Dr_willis: heh, ok. back to windows for now :-\
[05:49] <p1ls> how can i unpack tons of .tar files in linux?
[05:49] <Jordan_U> cad_, Try VLC
[05:49] <helfrez> dapper/lts desktop will get support through 2008 and lts sevrer through 2011 i think
[05:49] <nux_usr> helfrez:  Actually, Breezy has been extremely reliable and an absolute pleasure to have on my laptop.
[05:50] <bruenig> v3n0m, there are quite a few possible problems, if you knew some basic things about permissions, you should be able to solve it, I haven't the energy to work through each one for you
[05:50] <wtfkd> FIXED!
[05:50] <jbalint> p1ls: find . -name '*.tar' -exec tar -xf {} \;
[05:50] <bruenig> !permissions | v3n0m
[05:50] <ubotu> v3n0m: The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[05:50] <v3n0m> simoncpu_linux: what's wrong with xchat?
[05:50] <wtfkd> realtek audio drivers are working fineeeeeee
[05:50] <wtfkd> woooooo
[05:50] <v3n0m> bruenig: I believe I used the correct case sensitivities, will read those =)
[05:50] <p1ls> sorry i mean .rar
[05:51] <helfrez> nux_usr, as are most releases from most distros once you get them setup right, its the initial setup that pains people the most
[05:51] <cad_> vlc is a differnt program, codec, or webpage?
[05:51] <Ahadiel> p1ls: sudo apt-get install urar
[05:51] <Ahadiel> p1ls: or maybe it was unrar
[05:51] <helfrez> and start the my distro is better than yours pissing matches
[05:51] <wtfkd> vlc is a program
[05:51] <bruenig> v3n0m, it is not case, it is permission and ownership issues
[05:51] <Ahadiel> Then use a wildcard for extracting
[05:51] <Jordan_U> cad_, VLC is a different program
[05:51] <p1ls> thans
[05:51] <nux_usr> helfrez:  Initial setup is cake... it's the customization that takes time.
[05:51] <helfrez> nux_usr, thats what i was implying
[05:51] <cad_> just apt-get vlc?
[05:51] <v3n0m> bruenig: ya, I didn't discount that, I'm reading the links now
[05:52] <Jordan_U> cad_, Yup
[05:52] <PurpZeY> cad_: You can install via synaptic or add remove.
[05:52] <ubunt1> hey
[05:52] <cad_> not in add/remove i can't
[05:52] <ubunt1> install ubuntu server
[05:52] <ubunt1> but the problems
[05:52] <ubunt1> error hostname
[05:52] <PurpZeY> cad_: vlc is in add remove, but you can just use apt-get...it's all the same.
[05:52] <ubunt1> how to edit /etc/hostname it say readonly
[05:52] <cad_> wait, where in add/remove?
[05:52] <TxsTchN2> Hey guys, can I ask you a question lol.. I used php -m and it gave me this: The program 'php' is currently not installed.  You can install it by typing:
[05:52] <TxsTchN2> sudo apt-get install php5-cli
[05:53] <cad_> i swear it's not there
[05:53] <cad_> i might have an old distro 6.06?
[05:53] <helfrez> nux_usr, farther up the release chain u get, the fewer customization you need usually though, but dont bank on doin any more breezy installs anytime soon
[05:53] <TxsTchN2> but I installed lamp last night :/
[05:53] <ubunt1> someone here
[05:53] <PurpZeY> cad_: Make sure you have "all available packages" selected.
[05:53] <wtfkd> exit
[05:53] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  lots of people here
[05:53] <wtfkd> /exit
[05:53] <nux_usr> helfrez:  Oh, there's no way I'd do any fresh installs of something as ancient as Breezy.
[05:53] <Jordan_U> nux_usr, Just so you know ( not sure if this was the case yet for breezy to Dapper ) but the upgrade procedure is *not* to change your sources.list and dist-upgrade, it's to use "gksu update-manager -c"
[05:53] <tyler_d> how do I disable the join/leave notifications?
[05:53] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: man help
[05:54] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: how to edit hostname
[05:54] <PurpZeY> ubunt1:  You should be able to edit it using sudo
[05:54] <Jordan_U> cad_, It may not be in Add/Remove but it should be in synaptic / apt-get
[05:54] <ubunt1> PurpZeY: i'm with root access and say readonly
[05:54] <nux_usr> Jordan_U:  I always do clean installs... never upgrade from one version to another.  Too many loose ends to go back and clean up.
[05:54] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  use the hostname command, or edit /etc/hostname
[05:54] <Azhi_Dahaka> Can I convert a ntfs partition into an ext-3 one?
[05:55] <kilgore> if you reformat
[05:55] <Jordan_U> Azhi_Dahaka, If all you need to preserve is the Data and Folder hierarchy, yes
[05:55] <nux_usr> helfrez and Jordan_U;  Anyway, thanks for the replies.  Happy Ubuntu-ing!  :-)
[05:55] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: hostname hijo.com and after restart it again is hijo?
[05:56] <Azhi_Dahaka> and then can i go back to ntfs or something that windows can read?
[05:56] <Jordan_U> Azhi_Dahaka, Not "converting" per se, but you can just create an ext3 partition and copy all of the data from the NTFS partition to it
[05:56] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  your HOSTNAME is the part befor the .com I do belive
[05:56] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  so hijo is your hostname
[05:56] <Jordan_U> Azhi_Dahaka, Windows and Linux can Both read and write to NTFS and ext3
[05:56] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: i only have one computer
[05:57] <Feengur> hi all :D
[05:57] <TxsTchN2> How do I change my MYSQL hostname? like where it says "Host" localhost not for the network, but to change it for mysql
[05:57] <Jordan_U> !hi | Feengur
[05:57] <ubotu> Feengur: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[05:57] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: and for that i make hijo.com,becouse it is the main server.
[05:57] <TaJMoX> !fsdriver |Azhi_Dahka
[05:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about fsdriver - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:57] <Feengur> I have a question not necessarily linux specific, but you guys are always so helpful :)
[05:57] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  so? :)   try reading 'man hostname' and  'man domainname'
[05:57] <TaJMoX> ubotu im dissapointed
[05:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about im dissapointed - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[05:57] <Dr_willis> hostname - show or set the systems host name       dnsdomainname - show the systems DNS domain name
[05:57] <sx66> I can here quicktime sounds but not the video....
[05:58] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: man it work
[05:58] <Feengur> i have a vid card with vga, dvi and svideo
[05:58] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: now another error
[05:58] <Feengur> and i was wondering if you could do dual monitors with split screen off the same video source?
[05:58] <ubunt1> when i write ssh 192.168.1.100
[05:58] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: it say password incorrect ???
[05:58] <goofey> would someone mind running a "dpkg -S on any php files in /etc/apache/mods-available/
[05:58] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: but i enter the correct password.
[05:58] <goofey> er, "dpkg -S"

[05:58] <cad_> i'm new, obv - is there some set of servers that store all these packages somewhere? one that synaptic connects to?
[05:59] <PurpZeY> cad_: Yes, the repositories
[05:59] <PurpZeY> !repos | cad_
[05:59] <ubotu> cad_: The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[06:00] <v3n0m> since I deleted .dmrc, .ICEauthority, .Xauthority, (directories that i assume are regenerated) I can't grant permissions to these, so should I change the permissions of the parent?
[06:00] <bobsumone_>  VARIO WHERE U @???

[06:01] <goofey> would someone mind running a "dpkg -S" on any php files in /etc/apache/mods-available/
[06:01] <bobsumone_>  and google around for IRC commands so you know them
[06:01] <madcreation> oh ok
[06:02] <bobsumone_>  yay!
[06:02] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  i would have to guess a typo on your part. - or login as a user and use 'sudo' direct loggint in as root is disabled with Ubuntu
[06:02] <bobsumone_>  another win for Linux
[06:02] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: i can't understand you,i how to from here http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06_p3
[06:03] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: can you help.
[06:03] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  you login as your user, not 'root' could be the problem.
[06:03] <PurpZeY> Dr_willis: He says he has root...he did earlier, at least.
[06:03] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  then use 'sudo whatever' to do system admin type commajnds.
[06:03] <mrynit> how do i set the system defualt JRE for all aplications to use? i asked in #java but no one in there knows ubuntu
[06:03] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: ssh and then ???
[06:04] <Flannel> !java | mrynit
[06:04] <ubotu> mrynit: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[06:04] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  im not even sure what you are trying to do.
[06:04] <Jordan_U> mrynit, use update-alternatives
[06:04] <Liasno> can anyone help me when i start beryl-manager and try to switch to the beryl desktop i get the error checking for xcomposite exnteion : failed, how can I fix this I have a ATI Mobility Radeon X1600
[06:04] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: i have configured the server,now i want to enter with ssh?
[06:04] <mrynit> Jordan_U, any more info?
[06:04] <goofey> would someone mind running a "dpkg -S" on any php5 files in /etc/apache/mods-available/ - i need to know what package creates these files
[06:04] <DARKGuy> Hey, anybody knows how to speed up my ubuntu boot time? I just reinstalled Windows & Ubuntu, and in a clean install I can't believe Windows is faster =/... it's like, man, there should be a way I can speed it up, right?
[06:04] <PurpZeY> Liasno: #ubuntu-effects or #beryl
[06:04] <v3n0m> jrib&bruenig: since I deleted .dmrc, .ICEauthority, .Xauthority, (directories that i assume are regenerated) I can't grant permissions to these, so should I change the permissions of the parent?
[06:05] <bobsumone_>  ok so I have 3 samba shares (2 hdd's and 1 www folder) and when I pull them up on XP it seems to take a long time, any ideas how to expidite this process a little quicker?
[06:05] <zexr0> is there a way in Ubuntu to know how hot the CPU is ?
[06:05] <bruenig> v3n0m, it seems to complain that you may be unable to write to the directory
[06:05] <lunartear> what do i need to do to have BIND start at boot?
[06:05] <Jordan_U> Liasno, fglrx does not support beryl or compiz without a hack ( XGL ) try using the open source driver if it supports your card
[06:05] <bobsumone_>  (server edition 7.04 btw)
[06:05] <PurpZeY> zexr0: There is a package that monitors cpu temp...Not sure what it's called.
[06:05] <DARKGuy> zexr0, with sensors... if your motherboard/cpu supports those
[06:05] <ce_sweety> hii.i
[06:05] <CokeMan> what is it that i run to see all the packages i have installed an so forth?
[06:06] <v3n0m> bruenig: I assume you mean write the directory itself, because it doesn't exist?, shoould I manually recreate the directories?
[06:06] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: how can i control the server,i read that i can be with ssh?
[06:06] <DARKGuy> zexr0, PurpZeY: you need to get lm-sensors (or something similar) and xsensors... that will tell you. If it works, you can get a sensor/temp applet and install it (dunno the name right now)
[06:06] <bobsumone_>  CokeMan: aptitude does that just fine
[06:06] <bruenig> v3n0m, no I mean write permission, do you have permission to write
[06:06] <CokeMan> bobslaede, jep, thats what i was lookin for
[06:06] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  ssh lets you get a remote login to a machine.  if you dont even understand thebasics of ssh. You may want to read up on it.
[06:07] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: then how can i control it,good.
[06:07] <sreejith> nick /sree
[06:07] <Jordan_U> mrynit, sudo update-alternatives --config java
[06:07] <DARKGuy> Hey, anybody knows how to speed up my ubuntu boot time? I just reinstalled Windows & Ubuntu, and in a clean install I can't believe Windows is faster =/... it's like, man, there should be a way I can speed it up, right?
[06:07] <Phuz> !acl
[06:07] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about acl - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[06:07] <v3n0m> bruenig: I should I assume, I just installed it and am logging in via my main username, 'k'
[06:07] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  ssh is a perfectably acceptable way to controll a server.  of course you will need to understand the shell and commandline.
[06:07] <Phuz> anyone know anything about acl?
[06:08] <DARKGuy> Phuz, what's "acl" ?
[06:08] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: ok and can you tell me fast how can i connect to it?
[06:08] <Phuz> DARKGuy, why do you think I was asking?
[06:08] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: or can i install webmin
[06:08] <DARKGuy> Phuz, sorry, thought you knew the meaning :P
[06:08] <Phuz> it's an access control list, apparnetly
[06:08] <Phuz> apparently*
[06:09] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  Fast? your connection will be as fast as it is..   You could always install webmin if you wanted to.  Its proberly BEST to learn how to controll a server from the shell.
[06:09] <DARKGuy> curious o.o... never heard of it before
[06:09] <Phuz> and someone suggested using ACL to help me and a friend with an issue we're having with our server
[06:09] <Iron_Chef> does anyone here use sata raid (0) ??
[06:09] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: ok,now can you tell me,how to enter with root with the shell.
[06:09] <smast_> what is a good program to get for downloading music?
[06:10] <Jordan_U> DARKGuy, #1 and #4 Be careful with the rest as they are somewhat iffy http://news.softpedia.com/news/Optimize-Ubuntu-Feisty-Fawn-for-Speed-53836.shtml
[06:10] <goofey> would someone mind running a "dpkg -S" on any php5 files in /etc/apache/mods-available/ - i need to know what package creates these files - thanks!
[06:10] <PurpZeY> !root
[06:10] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[06:10] <sx66> PurpZeY, what's UP?!
[06:10] <Neolithium> smast_ I use Deluge to download torrents
[06:10] <DARKGuy> Phuz, maybe try asking for your problem and see if acl is really the way to solve your problem? ^^ just a suggestion xD
[06:10] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  'sudo -s' is the 'standard' ubuntu way to get a root shell. You login as a normal user, then use 'sudo command' or 'sudo -s'
[06:10] <DARKGuy> Jordan_U, alright, thanks :)
[06:10] <sx66> cpu 100%
[06:10] <Iron_Chef> mmm you need to know exactly what webmin is doing before trying to run it
[06:10] <Jordan_U> DARKGuy, np
[06:10] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: no ssh 192.168.1.100
[06:10] <PurpZeY> sx66: I've seen people with that before. I think there is a fix, although I don't know it.
[06:11] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: then how can i enter the sudo with the ssh.
[06:11] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  you ssh to a machine's ip and you get a login shell same as if you were there locally
[06:11] <Iron_Chef> soooo SATA RAID anyone?
[06:11] <a12345> Hello ? Anyone using ubuntu7.04 - how to upgrade Thunderbird from 1.5 to 2.0 -- the upgrade link is grey
[06:11] <sreejith> Hi All, I am having wireless issues after latest kernel upgrade. Anyone seen similar issues?
[06:11] <maeth> how can i set a Virtual machine in fullscreen?
[06:11] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  its no different from beign right at the machine . Same commands.
[06:11] <PurpZeY> sreejith: There are a ton of posts on the forum related to that
[06:11] <secleinteer> hi, does anyone know how to fix the following error when trying to firefox through vnc on feisty: http://pastebin.ca/546698
[06:11] <bruenig> maeth, check the vm's documentation
[06:11] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: no man,it display the name of the my ubuntu desktop
[06:11] <Phuz> DARKGuy, basically the problem is as follows: we need users to be able to access their entire home directory. and only their home directory.  However, we need Apache on the www-data user to be able to get access to their www folder within their home folder.  So, bob should have rwx recursively on /home/bob, but nothing else, and apache should be able to rw- on /home/bob/www
[06:11] <Jordan_U> maeth, What VM are you using?
[06:12] <a12345> well seems too busy -- bye
[06:12] <supaneko> How do I change the boot screen so that instead of seeing the Ubuntu boot load screen, I see the screen with the boot startup messages (and the thing with Tux at the top)?
[06:12] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: ubudesktop@192.168.1.101'
[06:12] <v3n0m> bruenig: u get my prev. msg ?
[06:12] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: and here need to be ubunserver@192.168.1.101
[06:12] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  if its your only machine - why does it matter?
[06:13] <goofey> supaneko: comment out "hidemenu" in /boot/grub/menu.lst
[06:13] <supaneko> :) Thank you, goofey.
[06:13] <maeth> Jordan_U, a windows XP , on Ubuntu
[06:13] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: man,you can't understand me,now when i enter with ssh,it say ubuntudesktop enter the password,i enter it and say pass incorrect.
[06:13] <goofey> supaneko: np
[06:13] <DARKGuy> Phuz, sounds like a problem I've had with sharing my pc with a different user for my sister. Someone suggested me using chmod to make it read-only for a different group o.O... it's confusing >.< but it goes around that: chmod, chown & groups
[06:13] <TaJMoX> maeth : alt+enter ?
[06:13] <maeth> Jordan_U, gonna try
[06:14] <cad_> jordan thank you for you help
[06:14] <Jordan_U> maeth, No, I mean what virtual machine software are you using, vmware? qemu? etc
[06:14] <maeth> Jordan_U, vmware
[06:14] <Jordan_U> cad_, np
[06:14] <cad_> i'm dl'ing what you told me, if it doesn't work, meh
[06:14] <DARKGuy> Phuz, I need to reboot, but try looking for what I told you, those commands will help you a lot (except groups which isn't a command, just look for that too)
[06:15] <Phuz> DARKGuy, i understand everything you told me about already
[06:15] <wastrel> Phuz:  setting the homedirs to  711  will work, apache only needs execute permission , not read
[06:15] <supaneko> goofey, what if I can't find it when I search for it?
[06:15] <wastrel> Phuz:  that's the home directory itself.  /home/username/  not recursive
[06:15] <goofey> supaneko: can't find the file or the hiddenmenu line?
[06:16] <Jordan_U> maeth, On Vmware server there is simply a button labeled "full screen", I don't know about player
[06:16] <maeth> Jordan_U, k

[06:17] <ubunt1> ssh 192.168.1.100 -l
[06:17] <wastrel> Phuz:  i assume the userdir for webspace is ~/public_html ?
[06:18] <Phuz> ~/www
[06:18] <Dr_willis> ubunt1,  its worth while learning all about ssh.
[06:18] <wastrel> Phuz:  k,  that directory needs to be world readable.   755
[06:18] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: i know some command
[06:18] <ubunt1> Dr_willis: cp.
[06:19] <what2dowhat2do> hey.... can anybody help me i'm trying to get my wireless card to work, i'm running 64 bit and can only find a 32 bit driver
[06:19] <Phuz> wastrel, thank you
[06:19] <aubade> wastrel: Directories also need an executable permission to have their contents read.
[06:20] <wastrel> 755 is read & execute
[06:20] <aubade> Oh, doh, I so did it wrong.
[06:20] <aubade> You're right, 'd be rwdx-r-xr-x. :P
[06:21] <aubade> Err, d slipped in.
[06:21] <what2dowhat2do> anybody know how to use ndiswrapper with a 32 bit driver on a 64 bit system?
[06:21] <lunartear> what do i need to do to have BIND start at boot?

[06:24] <CokeMan> why?
[06:25] <bulmer> he said jre not jdk
[06:25] <CokeMan> i know what version i have, its just not working as a plugin for FF
[06:25] <varka> CokeMan: sudo update-alternatives --config java
[06:25] <mrynit> when installed java there was no link to the install
[06:25] <varka> CokeMan: and check the plugin in firefox with about:plugins in the adress-line
[06:26] <cad_> hey guys, fyi, it worked. thanks a million
[06:27] <v3n0m> insmod: cool, I've also removed .dmrc, .ICEauthority, .Xauthority as per instructions of other helpers to no avail after trying to chmod/chown them, etc.
[06:27] <mrynit> how do i set priority with update-alternatives ?
[06:27] <goofey> would someone mind running a "dpkg -S" on /etc/apache2/mods-available/php5.load - i need to know what package creates this file - thanks!
[06:27] <varka> CokeMan: did you install not only the sun-java5/6-jre package but also the sun-java5/6-plugin package?
[06:28] <varka> mrynit: sudo update-alternative --config java/javac/www-browser/...
[06:28] <shrimants> hello there everybody, lovely weather we're having, isnt it
[06:29] <varka> mrynit: sudo update-alternatives --config java/javac/www-browser/...
[06:29] <varka> mrynit: sry, forgot the "s"
[06:29] <mrynit> not the browser
[06:29] <mrynit> the JRE
[06:29] <varka> mrynit: yes, then just sudo update-alternatives --config java
[06:30] <mrynit> yeah but how to i change priorities? it can set the default but not the priority. does that matter?
[06:30] <efritz> how can i install icon packages?
[06:30] <efritz> from gnome-look.org?
[06:30] <efritz> i foudn one but i don't know how to add it
[06:31] <mrynit> varka, the priority is set to the gcj i need it set to java6 JRE
[06:31] <shrimants> efritz, google for the ubuntu unofficial guide, u'll find the answer in tehre
[06:31] <sx66> !install /usr/lib/win32
[06:31] <shrimants> actually, efritz, heres how
[06:31] <sx66> how do you install /usr/lib/win32
[06:32] <v3n0m> insmod: could I have teh sol'n.?? =>
[06:32] <noiesmo> sx66: that is normally the place for w32codecs
[06:32] <shrimants> u have to install it in ~/icons instead of ~/.themes
[06:32] <noiesmo> !w32codecs
[06:32] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[06:32] <dfgas> arghhh
[06:32] <shrimants> ~/.icons ****
[06:32] <efritz> didn't find it
[06:32] <efritz> there wern't desktop icon packages there
[06:32] <dfgas> what is a program to use to ui can move my screen over to the left?
[06:32] <efritz> in the unofficial guide
[06:33] <varka> mrynit: i dont see any difference to the default-setting of update-alternatives, so where does it say that gcj has a higher priority while sun-java-jre is the default?
[06:33] <shrimants> efritz, put it in ~/.icons using either the terminal or the package manager
[06:33] <shrimants> srry, archive*** manager
[06:33] <goofey> any apache2/ubuntu/php5 users here?
[06:33] <maeth> Jordan_U, the player has that button but i cant reach it...
[06:33] <shrimants> efritz, http://art.gnome.org/faq.php#q4
[06:33] <maeth> cause when i try to push it i have to be in "no mouse grab" mode
[06:34] <Jordan_U> maeth, What do you mean you can't reach it?
[06:34] <mrynit> varka, http://slexy.org/paste/2955
[06:34] <Jordan_U> maeth, so just ctrl+alt to release the mouse
[06:34] <varka> mrynit: ok, mom
[06:34] <gesus> hiya.. i'm trying to install vpnclient from my uni, i run the install "sh vpn_install" but it tell me that there is a syntax error on line 47: "(" unexpected.. is there anyway i can force it to continue? line 47 on vpn_install is: function getvalue() {
[06:35] <Snedecor> how do i install the codecs?
[06:35] <shrimants> snedecor, what codecs?

[06:35] <wastrel> dfgas:  used to use xvidtune for stuff like that.  not sure if it works with xorg tho
[06:35] <varka> mrynit: oh, so your only problem ist that sun-java-jre is listed as third on that list of update-alternatives?
[06:36] <maeth> Jordan_U, yeah , but when i do that... the window restores and the pin button to make the buttons disapear , disapears
[06:36] <`eric-> yo
[06:36] <mogreen> yo
[06:36] <Stoffer> I have 1GB of ram, running beryl & kiba dock.... my system monitor says 30% of my ram is used by programs, while 40% is in use as cache... can someone explain that second part and let me know if that's normal?
[06:37] <mrynit> varka, java6 is set as default but gcj has + which means priority so im confused as to which is more important
[06:37] <`eric-> this may be a really lame question, but... i just switched to ubuntu not too long ago.... do i need to install a virus protection.. it's my understanding that viruses typically attack Windows Systems... i never installed one when I ran OSX? So is it neccessary with Ubuntu?
[06:37] <crdlb> !virus | `eric-
[06:37] <ubotu> `eric-: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[06:37] <`eric-> crdlb: thanks :)
[06:38] <gesus> hiya.. i'm trying to install vpnclient to access my university network, i run the install "sh vpn_install" but it tell me that there is a syntax error on line 47: "(" unexpected.. is there anyway i can force it to continue? line 47 on vpn_install is: function getvalue() {
[06:38] <shrimants> crdlb, is there a !commnd to get ubotu to tell me about custom compiled kernals?
[06:38] <lockd> gesus: is there an updated vpn client? i will check aptitude
[06:39] <shrimants> what programming language should i learn for maximum use with linux AND windows?
[06:39] <shrimants> like whats the most useful one?
[06:39] <TaJMoX> try python
[06:39] <shrimants> or how bout this, between ruby, perl, python
[06:39] <lockd> gesus: it seems there is openvpn and network-manager-openvpn..
[06:39] <gesus> lockd, there may be. my only wonder is if there are settings embedded in this version so that i can access my uni network. [http://www.griffith.edu.au/ins/remoteaccess/vlink/] 
[06:40] <lockd> gesus: well, if it's not a binary there aren't
[06:40] <shrimants> tajmox, why python and not the other 2?
[06:40] <SaveFerris> Hey, I just did an automatic update (through the little update icon in fiesty) and now X is failing to  start and claims that the wfb module does not exist... any help?
[06:40] <ticky> does anybody know if there is a command to remove duplicate (non succesive) lines.
[06:40] <procrastinator> Hmm, I feel pretty stupid for asking this, but how does one uninstall a built program?
[06:41] <TaJMoX> procrastinator : it depends on how you installed it
[06:41] <procrastinator> sudo make install
[06:41] <wastrel> procrastinator:  cd to the source directory and try sudo make uninstall
[06:41] <noiesmo> procrastinator: you can use "make clean" in the directory from where you complied the app
[06:41] <mrynit> varka, in eclipse it says its running in gcj and it is running slowly. i need to switch it to java6. I cannot do that in eclipse b.c it is executed by the system defualt of java.
[06:41] <wastrel> make clean doesn't uninstall
[06:42] <procrastinator> TaJMoX/wastrel/noiesmo, what if the directory no longer exists?
[06:42] <lockd> gesus: there is always one way.. setting up a Windows system and sniffing the network for data. but that is very complex, hopefully they give the settings
[06:42] <noiesmo> wastrel: ahh ok it just cleans the source direct etc
[06:42] <wastrel> procrastinator:  download the source again, extract, ./configure; make uninstall
[06:42] <TaJMoX> procrastinator : you don't have access to the source anymore ?
[06:42] <wastrel> procrastinator:  this is why i tend to keep this stuff around in ~/src/
[06:43] <Jester45> anyone have a suggestion for a simple 3d modeller that uses opengl ?
[06:43] <gesus> lockd, hmm. yes. i am really considering going for another os here. i've given ubuntu a fair run but there seems to be endless compatibility problems, sound cards, printers, webcams - this is the most serious though as i *need* to be able to get onto this network.
[06:43] <Reilithion> Jester45: Blender?
[06:43] <procrastinator> wastrel/TaJMoX:  I can probably still obtain the source, but I installed a lot of things (plugins for the merged compiz/beryl) and really have no idea which ones I've installed
[06:43] <Jester45> Reilithion, simpler
[06:43] <Lekrem> jester45: Blender is one of the best free 3D modelers
[06:44] <gesus> lockd, is there a way i can force this script to continue despite the syntax error? which by the way doesn't seem to be an error, seems perfectly normal.
[06:44] <lockd> gesus: well, not really
[06:44] <Toma-> Jester: have a look around kde-apps.org
[06:44] <lockd> gesus: it really is an error, even if it's a bash error
[06:44] <Jester45> i like blender but i just cant stand the UI
[06:45] <SperMite_> whats the ubuntu off topic channel ? i forgot it
[06:45] <Lekrem> jester45 http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Blender_3D:_Noob_to_Pro teaches you the basics on the UI
[06:45] <Jester45> SperMite_, #ubuntu-offtopic
[06:45] <zeeeee> help, for some reason i was able to install a package but it seems it's got broken dependencies: "iBA liblablgtk2-gnome-ocaml"
[06:46] <Jester45> Lekrem, i tried i just dont like it, to many things i just want simple shapes and colors
[06:46] <lockd> gesus: there is settings but it is in a plain text configuration file, or so it seems
[06:46] <wastrel> procrastinator:  if you didn't use --prefix=/usr  then most of it would normally be under /usr/local/ somewhere
[06:46] <procrastinator> wastrel:  alright, I'll go looking, thank you
[06:46] <gesus> lockd, yep i'm 90% sure that config file is for wireless access. i'm just after remote access here.
[06:46] <procrastinator> wastrel: will that be the source, if not, what would I do once there, just remove them?
[06:47] <gesus> lockd, i did have this install on ubuntu perectly, then i updated to 7.04 and now vpnclient doesn't work.
[06:47] <lockd> gesus: odd
[06:47] <lockd> gesus: bash problem, perhaps
[06:47] <AngryElf> how do I force a ntpdate session of "sudo ntpdate ntp.ubuntu.com" -> "the NTP socket is in use, exiting" ???
[06:47] <AngryElf> *if
[06:48] <wastrel> procrastinator:  that's not the source.  it's where the binaries, libraries and other bits and pieces of the programs would have been put.  it won't be easy to dig through and find all the pieces.
[06:48] <gesus> line 47: function getvalue() {
[06:48] <procrastinator> oy, why must i be such a fool
[06:48] <tyler_d> anyone know where to get kooldocker?
[06:48] <varka> mrynit: i understand your problem now and im a bit confused about it myself as for me the "default"-setting was always enough to convince every program to use the right jre. im working on a solution...
[06:49] <Reilithion> So, isn't Ubuntu's network manager supposed to handle WPA and WPA2 from the gui?  I can't find the options.
[06:49] <lockd> gesus: oh, there's griffith@home or whatever too
[06:49] <procrastinator> wastrel:  for future reference, is there anyway to sudo make install and have it appear in synaptic to uninstall or should I just make it a habit to keep the source around?
[06:49] <v3n0m> insmod: not funneh :X
[06:50] <mrynit> varka, thanks. i tried to figure a command to change the priority but cant seem to find it
[06:50] <Cmain> tyler_d apt_get?
[06:50] <lockd> procrastinator: you can try to use checkinstall to build a deb package
[06:50] <wastrel> procrastinator:  yes there's a program called checkinstall that you use instead of "make install"
[06:50] <gesus> lockd, yep that's a different one again :)
[06:50] <tyler_d> Cmain: maybe so... if so though I'm missing a source and google turns up squat on kooldocker and smoothdocker
[06:50] <Cmain> sudo apt-get install kooldock @ tyler
[06:50] <lockd> wastrel: procrastinator: but note that for complex programs - it likely won't work
[06:50] <wastrel> i've heard that checkinstall can cause dependency problems in apt though  :/  (no experience with that myself)
[06:50] <gesus> lockd: fyi line 47 of vpn_install: function getvalue() {
[06:51] <wastrel> so yes, generally a good idea to keep the source directory .  i use ~/src/  as i said.
[06:51] <lockd> gesus: i have that file
[06:51] <gesus> ok
[06:51] <tyler_d> ahhh
[06:51] <procrastinator> lockd/wastrel: thank you very much, think I may just stray away from building from source until I learn a bit more
[06:51] <tyler_d> Cmain: ty no er on the end... beautiful
[06:51] <gesus> lockd, did you get same error when you ran install?
[06:51] <lockd> gesus: yes
[06:52] <lockd> gesus: i also run Feisty
[06:52] <varka> mrynit: manually it seems to be done with --install where you can set a numerical priority urself, but i has to be easier i think
[06:52] <Azhi_Dahaka> are version upgrades painless?
[06:52] <lockd> gesus: i am going to test something with vpn
[06:53] <gesus> lockd, ok
[06:53] <Jordan_U> Azhi_Dahaka, Yes
[06:55] <wastrel> procrastinator:  also note that the "make uninstall" isn't always present and doesn't always work (most of the time though... :)
[06:55] <roadkill> who might i talk to about wine ?
[06:55] <porthose> hello all
[06:55] <Reilithion> roadkill: Well, if nobody here can help, you could try #winehq
[06:55] <Jordan_U> roadkill, #winehq
[06:55] <lockd> gesus: it adds to the menu allright, but configuring might be a pain - are you given your username and password?
[06:55] <roadkill> thanks
[06:55] <Jordan_U> !hi | porthose
[06:55] <ubotu> porthose: Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[06:55] <procrastinator> wastrel: yeah, so far it's been doing fairly nicely, ran into one or two that didnt work
[06:56] <gesus> lockd, yep
[06:56] <Stoffer> are there any settings or plugins for gnome that remember the size and position of application windows?
[06:56] <Cmain> should essid on in iwconfig screw anything up, I cant figure this out: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=2794373#post2794373
[06:56] <porthose> how do I set my mouse for single click I forgot how
[06:57] <Paddy_EIRE> is "checkinstall" a better way of making a deb package is I have the source package? or is using alien a better way of doing this?
[06:57] <Paddy_EIRE> **if I have the source
[06:58] <lockd> gesus: alien is for binaries
[06:58] <Paddy_EIRE> alien is for rpm
[06:58] <Paddy_EIRE> ?
[06:58] <porthose> I would suggest debuild
[06:58] <lockd> gesus: err, Paddy_EIRE
[06:58] <Paddy_EIRE> porthose, never have I heard of this
[06:58] <Paddy_EIRE> lockd, arrrr to you too
[06:59] <gesus> lockd ;-)
[06:59] <porthose> Instead of double clicking a file to open it you just single click it
[06:59] <Cmain> porthose: http://www.howtoforge.com/gnome_single_mouseclick
[06:59] <porthose> thanks
[07:00] <Paddy_EIRE> e.g. If a package is avail in rpm and src would I be better of downloading the source and using checkinstall rather that using alien with the rpm
[07:00] <ludesign> anyone familiar with Qt ?
[07:01] <mrynit> varka, this could be my problem http://slexy.org/paste/2956 . best is gcj i need java6
[07:01] <varka> mrynit: ok, so manually it is be done with --install, read the manpage for the right syntax, but you can also install "galternatives" which is a gnome frontend for "update-alternatives"
[07:01] <v3n0m> need help with http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24364/
[07:01] <mrynit> k
[07:02] <Paddy_EIRE> lockd, is there a problem??
[07:02] <wastrel> Stoffer:  i've heard of "devil's pie" which can add features like that to metacity i think.  not sure for compiz/beryl.  also devil's pie looks a bit tricky to configure
[07:03] <Stoffer> wastrel, using berly, apparently no such options for it

[07:03] <Stoffer> wastrel, thought maybe gnome itself would have an option buried
[07:03] <Stoffer> wastrel, independent of metacity
[07:03] <rodrigo> gracias
[07:04] <Stoffer> wastrel, but then again, until yesterday I didn't know the difference between gnome & metacity P
[07:04] <wastrel> Stoffer:  gnome philosophy is "configuration options confuse users"
[07:04] <lirunhua> hello
[07:05] <mrynit> varka, wihtin galternatives i can see the settings and chage the defualt but not the priority.
[07:05] <Stoffer> wastrel, easily solved by adding beginner-intermediate-advanced user setting
[07:05] <Stoffer> wastrel, like azureus
[07:06] <rodrigo> como instalo java en ubuntu?
[07:06] <varka> mrynit: shit, ok, so you have to do it with --install where you can set a particular priority for a program
[07:06] <gesus> lockd, how'd you go with vpn?
[07:06] <mrynit> wtf is this so convoluted?
[07:07] <Herosblade> hey
[07:07] <Herosblade> anyone talking?
[07:07] <wastrel> mrynit:  i think the update-alternatives thing is really supposed to be used in package configuration scripts.  it's not a really user friendly command :] 
[07:07] <wastrel> i wonder if there's a nicer front-end.
[07:08] <mrynit> and im a noob
[07:08] <varka> mrynit: look here for the syntax http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=80145
[07:08] <wastrel> oic galternatives is the nice front-end ;] 
[07:09] <Herosblade> does anyone know about fixing a mbr?
[07:09] <shrimants> fixing mbr or fixing grub?
[07:09] <Herosblade> both

[07:09] <TaJMoX> What's the error ?
[07:10] <Herosblade> well

[07:10] <Herosblade> i kinda goofed when installing linux
[07:10] <Herosblade> i was putting linux on my external harddrive

[07:12] <varka> Herosblade: looks like a really effective security-solution ;)
[07:12] <Herosblade> lol yea
[07:12] <Herosblade> that i figured
[07:12] <DarkMageZ> Raz, the idea behind dhcp is that you don't have to specify anything. probably easier to find the rogue router.
[07:12] <Pooky> noiesmo: hrm, not in the repository :(
[07:12] <protocol1> is it better to use the "nv" driver for the older geforce cards?
[07:13] <noiesmo> Pooky: I was think e17 enlightenment
[07:13] <Raz> DarkMageZ: I can't just go knocking on doors of people I don't know :P
[07:13] <noiesmo> :( Pooky
[07:13] <Raz> My roommate's mac knows which router is right..
[07:13] <Herosblade> what i was aiming on doing was having my computer boot windows regulary then when i wanna use linux just shutdown plug in external and start up
[07:13] <Pooky> noiesmo: oh, hehe. Maybe I'll try rat poison, I just don't like how w9wm makes me click on the background all the time
[07:13] <varka> protocol1: nv has no d-acceleration, use nvidia-glx-legacy instead if your card is that old
[07:13] <mrynit> varka, what is the slave part?
[07:14] <Herosblade> then have it give me a choice or just directly start ubuntu
[07:14] <stevemcc> hey
[07:14] <noiesmo> Pooky: hey what about fluxbox
[07:14] <varka> mrynit: good question, next question
[07:14] <protocol1> varka, so I would install that package right
[07:14] <protocol1> and that will use it as default?
[07:14] <stevemcc> is there a way to delete all the contents of all the folders in /media/IPOD/iPod_Control/Music?
[07:14] <noiesmo> Pooky: flwm
[07:14] <DarkMageZ> Raz, the best idea would be to run something like wireshark and then run dhcp-client and find out which mac address is the rogue router. then find out what ip address is associated with that mac and then find out a name for that ip and trace it from there.
[07:14] <varka> protocol1: depends, what graphicadapter do you own?
[07:14] <Pooky> noiesmo: it's nto bad, I'd probably go so far as to use blackbox, but I don't need the dock thing
[07:14] <protocol1> ok
[07:15] <Pooky> noiesmo: I just need something that goes around the window, and lets me move and resize them via clicking in or on them
[07:15] <sx66> food?
[07:15] <Herosblade> any ideas on the mbr/grub errors?
[07:16] <noiesmo> Pooky: k but im out suggestions :(
[07:16] <Raz> DarkMageZ: wireshark? Hm.. I'll give it a shot =)
[07:16] <Raz> thanks
[07:16] <varka> protocol1: what graphicadapter do you own?
[07:16] <DarkMageZ> Raz, tho there should never be more than 1 dhcp server on each layer 2 network. i would contact the head admin if he has power over the dorm
[07:17] <outtaherenow> anyone familiar with how to identify bad hard drive sectors in ubuntu?
[07:17] <protocol1> varka, its a friends and I would have to ask him later
[07:17] <Raz> The techs won't bother to come for a while =\
[07:17] <noiesmo> !fsck
[07:17] <ubotu> fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[07:17] <Raz> Thanks for the help!
[07:18] <DarkMageZ> Raz, if you are lucky you can just use the rogue access point and probe around that subnet it hands out to find the owner.
[07:18] <outtaherenow> thanks
[07:18] <noiesmo> !fsck outtaherenow
[07:18] <_ph00> I'm considering installing a custom kernel and I need to know how to keep update manager from upgrading kernels; my guess would be unistalling linux-headers-2.6-20.16 and keeping linux-headers-2.6.20.16.generic as a backup kernel in case my custom built one doesn't work: is that correct? and if not, how do I make update manager not look for kernels?
[07:18] <outtaherenow> with the !
[07:18] <outtaherenow> ?
[07:18] <mrynit> varka, update-alternatives: --install needs <link> <name> <path> <priority> what is the difference of link and path?
[07:18] <noiesmo> !fsck | outtaherenow
[07:18] <ubotu> outtaherenow: fsck is the FileSystem ChecKer, which runs automatically when you boot if you didn't shutdown cleanly. Type "man fsck" for information on running it manually. The command "sudo shutdown -F -r now" will force a reboot and a filesystem check; "sudo touch /fastboot" will skip a filesystem check at next reboot
[07:19] <varka> protocol1: ok, you can look here to determine what version of the driver you should install having a look into the supported hardware section of the README files for the three versions of the nvidia driver http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html
[07:19] <outtaherenow> ubotu: great, thanks
[07:19] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about great, thanks - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:20] <sx66> sudo app?
[07:20] <Herosblade> hey does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix that mbr/grub issue?
[07:20] <robert98374> Hello Everyone!
[07:20] <sx66> hey robert98374
[07:20] <logmein> I downloaded some gaim plugins but have no clue how to install them, plz help?
[07:20] <robert98374> I just got a new Moniter how do i get it so linux sees it?
[07:21] <tonyyarusso> logmein: Check the README file for each.
[07:21] <mrynit> logmein, right click puglins check ok
[07:21] <Herosblade> i think you need giam dev edition
[07:21] <sx66> how do you install pidigin? there is no app for it in (in/remove prog
[07:21] <b0xii> robert98374: edit xorg.conf
[07:21] <robert98374> bOxii anything specific i need to do?
[07:21] <noiesmo> !pidgin
[07:21] <ubotu> pidgin is the new name for Gaim forced by AOL's legal dept. It wasn't released in time for Feisty. Expect it in gutsy. See http://www.pidgin.im/index.php for more info.
[07:21] <ziroday> help, i have a client who does charity work in Indonesia for aids children and is going to be using linux, however they need a program to manage inventory and patient records, any ideas?
[07:21] <b0xii> robert98374: what brand of video card?
[07:22] <logmein> tonyyarusso: never mind they are executable install files, I got voice and video support for gaim from sourceforge site
[07:22] <robert98374> bOxii onboard
[07:22] <khin> hi, i have a question about symbolic links, whenever i make them to any of my programs, like say matlab or eclipse or whatever, it always comes up with this annoying message, do you want to run this, display it or run in a terminal. is there a way to bypass this message and just start the prog
[07:22] <tonyyarusso> logmein: nice
[07:22] <stevemcc> zirody: php and mysql!
[07:22] <b0xii> robert98374: so this isn't a dual-head setup?
[07:22] <robert98374> bOxii duel moniter/
[07:22] <sx66> boooooo
[07:22] <robert98374> ?
[07:22] <tonyyarusso> khin: make a launcher rather than a symlink would be your best bet
[07:22] <robert98374> *monitor
[07:22] <Herosblade> @ziroday i think maby a spreadsheet program mite work
[07:22] <varka> mrynit: link is just a symbolic link as a short version for accessing the program while path means the real path to the program-file
[07:23] <b0xii> robert98374: i'm only familiar with setting up dual heads w/ ait
[07:23] <b0xii> ait
[07:23] <b0xii> ati
[07:23] <tonyyarusso> khin: right-click, Create Launcher, on the desktop or panels.
[07:23] <mrynit> so the link does not have to be a pre-existing link
[07:23] <ziroday> Herosblade: no we need a bigger scale up to 1000 patients
[07:23] <khin> can i do that from a terminal, just curious
[07:23] <ziroday> Herosblade: there's plenty of poor sick people lol
[07:23] <robert98374> bOxii what do you mean Dual Heads?
[07:23] <tonyyarusso> khin: not sure actually
[07:23] <twidle> tafu
[07:24] <Paddy_EIRE> !root
[07:24] <ubotu> do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[07:24] <Herosblade> ... doesnt ubuntu came with a spreadsheet program in the office thing
[07:24] <Frogzoo> ubotu - that is a terribly confusing explanation for sudo
[07:24] <tonyyarusso> Herosblade: yes - "Calc"
[07:25] <ubunt1> hey how can i send one file to the server
[07:25] <varka> mrynit: as we talk about the jre which is definetely preexisting i think you should determine what link it has now. in fact i never used that "--install" command so im not sure to tell you the whole truth, ok?
[07:25] <khin> that is a splendiferous explanation
[07:25] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: elaborate?
[07:25] <TxsTchN2> does anyone know of any good free web hosting control panels?
[07:25] <sx66> how do you get the taskbar (taskplane back up) or system tray thing?
[07:25] <Frogzoo> ubunt1: so many options - email/ftp/floppy/copy to usb key etc etc
[07:25] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: now i install ubuntu server and there is no gui and i want to put ispconfig in the ubuntu server how to do iy.
[07:25] <tonyyarusso> TxsTchN2: Ask Mez next time he's around if you don't get an answer now.  ISPConfig I think it might be called.
[07:26] <mrynit> varka, well thanks for the help so far. i check /usr/bin and all the links there for java point to java6 so im not user why eclipse is running in the wrong version of java
[07:26] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: Log in and apt-get it?
[07:26] <ubunt1> Frogzoo: i have ubuntu server and ubuntu desktop
[07:26] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: hmm moment
[07:26] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: otherwise, scp is your best route.
[07:26] <Frogzoo> ubunt1: ftp's easiest
[07:26] <mrynit> varka, and with the update-alternatives says the priority is to gcj so i am really confued as to what is going on
[07:27] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: how to install ftp
[07:27] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: 'sudo aptitude install yourfaveftpprogram'
[07:27] <ubunt1> ISPConfig-2.2.13
[07:27] <godlygeek> so...  is there a list of who maintains what packages anywhere out there?
[07:27] <sx66> okay, I have a swap and a partition of windows and a free partition of 10gb, now what? how do I mount linux to the 10gb?
[07:27] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: ISPConfig-2.2.13 can't find the package
[07:28] <tonyyarusso> godlygeek: yep - 'apt-cache show packagename'
[07:28] <ubunt1> !ftp
[07:28] <ubotu> FTP clients: !Nautilus, !gFTP (for !GNOME) - !Konqueror, !Kasablanca, !KFTPGrabber (for !KDE) - See also !FTPd
[07:28] <varka> mrynit: i understand your problem but i never had anything like it before, so good look searching for the solution
[07:28] <n2diy_> godlygeek: check the documents that come with the package.
[07:28] <godlygeek> tonyyarusso: didn't think of that.  :)  thanks
[07:28] <n2diy_> godlygeek: ???
[07:28] <Frogzoo> godlygeek: apt-cache show package | grep Maint
[07:28] <mrynit> varka, im at the point where i say eff it and give up
[07:28] <Herosblade> sx66 you gotta make it a fat32 or etx(2/3)
[07:29] <veritgo> having an odd problem with fiesty, ndiswrapper, bcm4306 wireless card, and Torrent.  After about 50 minutes of high speed torrent, all network connectivity drops. ifdown/up eth0 does nothing for me.  BUT, if i do an modprobe -r ndiswrapper, then add it backin with a modprobe ndis wrapper, my network connectivity comes back.
[07:29] <veritgo> any ideas?
[07:29] <sx66> it is fat32, Herosblade, now what?
[07:29] <DarkMageZ> ubunt1, are you trying to install the opensource webhosting control panel?
[07:29] <Herosblade> hum let me think
[07:29] <TxsTchN2> i found one but i need some additional php modules that the package manager doesn't have in it.. is there somewhere i can get additional modules?
[07:29] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ:
[07:29] <TxsTchN2> anyone?
[07:29] <varka> mrynit: try posting your problem at ubuntuforums.org
[07:29] <Herosblade> its already fat32 not sure from there
[07:30] <Herosblade> i think your supost to set that when installing ubuntu
[07:30] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06_p5
[07:30] <mrynit> yeah im going to do that. also im saving all your posts in here to look back on. i found a site that talk about kinda doing this but involved bash scipts and changing !# paths
[07:30] <TxsTchN2> kinda lagged up there.. but ok thanx
[07:30] <godlygeek> and, is the proper way to report bugs through the bugzilla or through the mailing lists?
[07:31] <spasticteapot> If I want to give all users access to a folder, I want to "sudo chmod 555 -R (file)" , right?
[07:31] <godlygeek> i'm a bit miffed because i reported a bug, provided a simple test case, and provided a two-line patch to fix it and haven't gotten so much as a 'Confirmed' in 3 months.  :(
[07:31] <bknitram> how do I find system resource usage
[07:31] <spasticteapot> Or do I have that wrong?
[07:32] <wastrel> godlygeek:  i believe the official method is through launchpad
[07:32] <phileas> 1059 users!
[07:32] <godlygeek> bknitram: top?
[07:32] <DarkMageZ> ubunt1, ubuntu doesn't package ispconfig. please continue to read the setup guide. they tell you to install ispconfig and how later in the guide.
[07:32] <bytewalker> has anyone gotten starcraft - brood war working in edgy?
[07:32] <godlygeek> wastrel: 'kay.  that's what i tried.  heh
[07:32] <bytewalker> with normal wine not cedega btw
[07:32] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: ok where they tell me to install it.?
[07:33] <DarkMageZ> ubunt1, on the last page.
[07:33] <godlygeek> spasticteapot: -R is only needed for Recursive, ie for traversing into subdirectories.  you don't need it for a file.
[07:33] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: ok man,i will see it.
[07:33] <sudo> I'm having a bit of a nvidia issue. Once i install the drivers i'm fine.. next thing i do is reboot! once rebooting X wont start due to a "screen can't be found" so i have to reinstall the nvidia drivers then it works!
[07:33] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: THANKS.
[07:33] <sudo> any ideas?
[07:33] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: be here for another questions.

[07:34] <function1> is it just completely imbossible to shrink a vmware virtual disk on a linux host?
[07:34] <godlygeek> spasticteapot: (or a directory, directories need to be executable as well)
[07:35] <godlygeek> function1: can't you do that with vmware-tools?
[07:35] <sudo> I'm having a bit of a nvidia issue. Once i install the drivers i'm fine.. next thing i do is reboot! once rebooting X wont start due to a "screen can't be found" so i have to reinstall the nvidia drivers then it works!
[07:35] <sudo> any ideas?
[07:35] <bytewalker> anyone got starcraft working in edgy? i'm having problesm with X wanting to swtich modes to 640x400x8
[07:35] <atarikid> Starcraft <3
[07:35] <TaJMoX> bytewalker : run in window
[07:35] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: man but i'm using UBUntu feisty is there a problem.
[07:36] <function1> godlygeek: google seems to indicate that you have to "prepare the disk for shrinking" on a windows host first and then use vmware-vdiskmanager; tho, i suppose i might poke around vmware-tools
[07:36] <bytewalker> tajmox ok how can i do that from command line?
[07:37] <godlygeek> re virtual disks for shrinking, you should run VMware Tools as the root user. This way, you ensure the whole virtual disk is shrunk. If you shrink disks as a non-root user, you cannot wipe the parts of the virtual disk that require root-level permissions.
[07:37] <godlygeek> function1: http://www.vmware.com/support/gsx3/doc/disks_defrag_shrink_gsx.html5D
[07:37] <sudo> Can anyone help with install NVIDIA driver???
[07:37] <DarkMageZ> ubunt1, apparently ispconfig support ubuntu 7.04 so you should be ok.
[07:38] <ziroday> sudo:sure
[07:38] <v3n0m> I  can't log in I'm getting errors with .dmrc and .ICEauthority after some updates and a newly installed tv tuner driver (some say it is because I used sudo with a graphical application) any ideas ( My problem is detailed here http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24364/  )
[07:38] <noiesmo> sudo You may need to edit /etc/default/linux-restricted-modules-common and add "nv" so it has DISABLED_MODULES="nv"
[07:38] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: THanks man i found for 7.
[07:38] <function1> godlygeek: ok thx testing this..
[07:39] <sudo> ziroday, for some weird reason everytime i reboot X wont start do to it not finding the screen.. so everytime i reboot i must reinstall the nvidia driver as root.
[07:39] <ziroday> sudo: how are you installing the drivers?
[07:40] <sudo> kev@GotWork:~/Desktop$ sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9755-pkg1.run
[07:40] <sudo> i dled the run file from the nvidia webpage
[07:40] <ziroday> sudo: try envy to install
[07:41] <ziroday> sudo: www.albertomilone.com/nvidia_scripts1.html
[07:41] <sudo> envy? sorry this is day 7 for me with nix
[07:41] <Paddy_EIRE> tonyyarusso, what did you kick me for, I out argued your silly little conversation? If you could not help that chap then dont, and dont expect me to teach you
[07:41] <ziroday> sudo : envy is a autoscript to install the drivers it should help
[07:41] <ziroday> sudo: uninstall and the install the drivers with envy
[07:42] <varka> sudo: why dont you try the drivers from the repository first nvidia-glx, nvidia-glx-legacy or nvidia-glx-new ?
[07:42] <function1> darn, no shrinking a preacllocated disk.
[07:42] <n2diy_> Paddy_EIRE: I don't have a dog in this fight, but aren't we here to teach each other?
[07:42] <sx66> resolution issues on an Dell 710m any ideas?
[07:42] <varka> sudo: what type of nvidia graphicsadapter do you own?
[07:42] <Frogzoo> function1: what are vmware tools? shrinking the images appeals to me, how is this done?
[07:43] <godlygeek> function1: nope, not possible to shrink a preallocated disk.
[07:43] <Paddy_EIRE> n2diy_, I was being falsely accused
[07:43] <sudo> varka, i tired apt-get install i have all of those listed
[07:43] <Assassin`> I'm looking for a media player that will play music, rip music, convert audio, burn, sync, has an equilizer, plays videos and has other features built into one player cause im getting kinda tired of jumping from k3b to songbird to soundjuicer and still having to go to folders to deal with my music any suggestions?r
[07:43] <aubade> Don't suppose there's an easy way to manipulate runlevels along the lines of the rc-update script?
[07:43] <n2diy_> Paddy_EIRE: Roger, your back in again, move on?
[07:43] <khin> hi ive heard that vnc server/viewer is not secure unless done over ssh, can anyone point me to a link on how to do this
[07:44] <noiesmo> Assassin`: amarok
[07:44] <Frogzoo> Assassin`: I suggest you install Linux - it does all that
[07:44] <function1> Frogzoo: VM -> Install VMWare Tools
[07:44] <logmein> alright still no luck trying to check my friends webcam, they use windows and I'm on xubuntu. Any tips?
[07:44] <Assassin`> one program that does everything
[07:44] <TaJMoX> bytewalker sorry here: http://www.creepcolony.com/starwindow.zip
[07:44] <Assassin`> i didn't like amarok
[07:44] <Assassin`> and i have linux or i wouldn't be here :)
[07:44] <Frogzoo> function1: stoopid question - do the vmware tools come with the vmplayer ?
[07:44] <Assassin`> amarok wasn't enough
[07:45] <khin> actually i found some, nm
[07:45] <logmein> Assassin: hmm songbird?
[07:45] <TaJMoX> bytewalker i havent tested it in wine though
[07:45] <Assassin`> i have that right now but it just isn't powerful enough
[07:45] <Paddy_EIRE> n2diy, keep out ...simple heh
[07:45] <varka> sudo: so you tried one from the repository and it didnt work, right?
[07:45] <Frogzoo> Assassin`: you missed the joke - I think the swiss army knife you seek doesn't exist
[07:45] <Paddy_EIRE> spasticteapot, did you get the install working
[07:45] <aubade> Exaile can tie in with Sound Juicer and Serpentine, all I can think of.
[07:45] <Assassin`> WMP
[07:45] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: man how can i reinstall on new saslauth???
[07:45] <Assassin`> :(
[07:45] <sudo> varka, right.
[07:45] <n2diy> Paddy_EIRE: ??
[07:45] <spasticteapot> Paddy_EIRE: No. But I found a solution written in French.
[07:45] <Assassin`> think it will work with wine?
[07:45] <varka> sudo: what type of nvidia graphicsadapter do you own?
[07:46] <spasticteapot> I don't speak a word of it.
[07:46] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: becouse from 6.06 version to 7 have changes and now i give error
[07:46] <Paddy_EIRE> spasticteapot, lol, you ok from there
[07:46] <sudo> varka, 1sec
[07:46] <spasticteapot> Anyone here speak French?
[07:46] <Paddy_EIRE> lol
[07:46] <logmein> Assassin: why not cram EVERY application all into one and give it net access for ipv6 7 and 8
[07:46] <lunartear> I'm having a problem starting named in a chrooted environment. I'm not getting any kind of messages from it and i dont see anything in the logs. I'm issuing /usr/sbin/named -u bind -t /var/lib/named   any ideas to help me get it up and running or even some error messages would be great.  its BIND 9.3.2
[07:46] <ubunt1> DarkMageZ: or man,can you install saslauthd,and then send me the log.
[07:46] <spasticteapot> Paddy_EIRE: Not really. I don't speak french, and Google Translator gives me bad engrish.
[07:46] <Paddy_EIRE> google translator spasticteapot
[07:46] <function1> Frogzoo: not sure if it comes with just the player, i'm running the vmware-server
[07:46] <Paddy_EIRE> oh

[07:47] <logmein> Assassin: yeah it also exports info to random sites and certificates, gets viruses, and other things. install it under wine if you must
[07:47] <ubunt1> sudo you are with 939?
[07:47] <Paddy_EIRE> spasticteapot, did you try what I said
[07:47] <Frogzoo> function1: oh nice, thx
[07:47] <sudo> ubunt1?
[07:47] <varka> sudo: and what driver did you try? nvidia-glx?
[07:48] <Paddy_EIRE> spasticteapot, thats basically your prob
[07:48] <ubunt1> sudo 939 amd?
[07:48] <Assassin`> logmein: thats what i'm saying
[07:48] <geet> i have an process running in a virtual terminal on my box. i am ssh'd into the box on another computer. is there a way to now direct output and input from this ssh session to that running process?
[07:48] <Assassin`> lol
[07:48] <spasticteapot> Paddy_EIRE: Yup.
[07:48] <spasticteapot> Installed with Root.
[07:48] <Paddy_EIRE> spasticteapot, ahh and failure
[07:48] <lunartear> I'm having a problem starting named in a chrooted environment. I'm not getting any kind of messages from it and i dont see anything in the logs. I'm issuing /usr/sbin/named -u bind -t /var/lib/named   any ideas to help me get it up and running or even some error messages would be great.  its BIND 9.3.2
[07:48] <sudo> AM2 socket.
[07:48] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: man are you here
[07:48] <sudo> varka, yes
[07:48] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: ya
[07:48] <ubunt1> sudo then you need to install nvidia generic
[07:49] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: man how can i reinstall saslauhtd?
[07:49] <Paddy_EIRE> spasticteapot, thats a very strange prob to be getting
[07:49] <varka> sudo: so my advice would be to uninstall the driver from the nvidia site and try nvidia-glx-new
[07:49] <logmein> Assassin: why not write up your own bash scripts and extra gui buttons to do similar options? or look for plugins to integrate the programs?
[07:49] <spasticteapot> I don't speak french?
[07:49] <function1> Frogzoo: its free, but you still have to register (just with an email i think) on vmware site to get a serial
[07:49] <spasticteapot> People have that problem all the time.
[07:49] <Paddy_EIRE> spasticteapot, you are sure you followed exactly what I said
[07:49] <spasticteapot> Do you have any idea how many people flunk french class?
[07:49] <Assassin`> i was looking for songbird programs
[07:49] <spasticteapot> Paddy_EIRE: Install it with proper Root? Yes.
[07:49] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: how'd you install it in the first place?
[07:50] <lunartear> why are you guys ignoring me
[07:50] <geet> does anybody know how to latch on to the standard input/output of an already running proces from an ssh session?
[07:50] <Assassin`> maybe i can look into k3b's extensions
[07:50] <Paddy_EIRE> damn
[07:50] <Paddy_EIRE> hmmm
[07:50] <logmein> spasticteapot: not as many that flunk english its predominent in technological fields :)
[07:50] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso:  man i see from here how to make it http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06_p5 but it was error on saslauth becouse it is 6.06 and now i look from here and http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu704_p5 saslauthd give error
[07:50] <Paddy_EIRE> lunartear, whats the prob
[07:50] <lunartear> I'm having a problem starting named in a chrooted environment. I'm not getting any kind of messages from it and i dont see anything in the logs. I'm issuing /usr/sbin/named -u bind -t /var/lib/named   any ideas to help me get it up and running or even some error messages would be great.  its BIND 9.3.2

[07:52] <Paddy_EIRE> logmein, that should not be a prob, what IM client you using
[07:53] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: why perhaps ???
[07:53] <n2diy> logmein: over the internet?
[07:53] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: see this,man only quick look
[07:53] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: Because I've never tried that package.
[07:53] <logmein> Paddy_EIRE: been using gaim
[07:53] <lunartear> frogzoo, there arent any libs in the chroot environment
[07:53] <pikeshouse88> !joke
[07:53] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about joke - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:53] <bytewalker> ok i got starcraft working, suond and everything.. but its really SLOW.. how to fix?
[07:53] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu_6.06_p5 look in PId
[07:53] <Frogzoo> lunartear: ah - well that's your prob
[07:53] <atarikid> Gaim doesn't have video support AFAIK?
[07:53] <logmein> n2diy: with what program?
[07:53] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso:  and in version 7 ubuntu http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_setup_ubuntu704_p5
[07:53] <Paddy_EIRE> logmein, try aMSN or Kopete either of those is straight forward Gaim really does not support it
[07:54] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: Can you be more specific?
[07:54] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: then don't speak for the pid,
[07:54] <n2diy> logmein: any web browser.
[07:54] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: and i change the pid file.
[07:54] <lunartear> frogzoo, should i just copy them over?
[07:55] <kranol> Does anyone know of a howto i can read on patching prism54 drivers/firmware then?...
[07:55] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: ok now lets see,in version 6.06 server they are editing the pid,and in version 7 feisty they only touch the default.
[07:55] <logmein> Paddy_EIRE: omg I love amsn thx, couldn't get it to install before
[07:55] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: and which do you run?
[07:55] <n2diy> kranol: google?
[07:55] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: what which
[07:55] <bytewalker> anyone got ideas for making starcraft run at a playable speed? i turned off beryl that helped rofl.. but what else?
[07:56] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: 6.06 or 7.04
[07:56] <Paddy_EIRE> I love seeing ppl so happy :)
[07:56] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: ubuntu 7
[07:56] <Frogzoo> lunartear: just copy over whatever ldd identifies should be enough - preserve permissions though, you'll also need versions of /etc/passwd & /etc/shadow with any users you want with chroot access, really I'd be looking in the wiki for a chroot howto
[07:56] <Frogzoo> !chroot
[07:56] <ubotu> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebootstrapChroot use this to build 32 bit environments on a 64 bit box
[07:56] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: (7.04)  So follow those directions I'd say.
[07:56] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: where man?
[07:56] <lunartear> frogzoo ok thanks
[07:56] <khin> hi, im trying to ssh myself. it says connection refused. how do i alter this
[07:56] <tonyyarusso> ...
[07:57] <computerjd> Hey, I've got a question for you guys.  I'm about to install Ubuntu (try to anyway).  The problem is, i have sata drives, and I know that I will need the drivers for this to install.  However, there are no linux drivers listed for my motherboard.  I have a GA-K8NSNXP.  My sata is SLI 3112/3512.  Any help is much appreciated.
[07:57] <Paddy_EIRE> anyone know if this driver will ever be available "08:01.4 FLASH memory: ENE Technology Inc Unknown device 0551 (rev 01)"
[07:57] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: The second link you just posted?
[07:57] <kranol> n2diy I've been googling for a long time.
[07:57] <Frogzoo> khin: you'll need to install sshd for starters
[07:57] <Frogzoo> !sshd | khin
[07:57] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about sshd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[07:57] <noiesmo> khin: you may need to open up port 22
[07:57] <Paddy_EIRE> nasty when linus just says NO!
[07:57] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: ok man,but i edit the pid file ,how to record the pid file?
[07:57] <n2diy> khin: your trying to ssh yourself from your local box?
[07:57] <Paddy_EIRE> *linux
[07:57] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: Why edit it if the instructions don't say you have to?

[07:58] <n2diy> kranol: roger that, if you aren't getting answers here, I don't know what else to tell you?
[07:58] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: in version 6.06 they say to edit it,and after that i start to search for version 7 and find them then.
[07:58] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: those are the 6.06 instructions, but you have 7.04 you said.
[07:58] <n2diy> ! ssh

[07:58] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: but first i start from 6.06 becosue i didn;t know that is for 7
[07:58] <Paddy_EIRE> computerjd, are you running from a live cd now
[07:59] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: yes, and where are you at now?
[07:59] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: in version 7,
[07:59] <computerjd> Paddy_EIRE I'm downloading the LIVE CD now. Once i get it burned, i will be
[07:59] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: the error is comming from pid init.d
[07:59] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: becouse in 7 they only touch the default.
[07:59] <Nuked> I have  a problem... my computer freezes when I try to log out of an account... using feisty x86_64
[08:00] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: So you should undo whatever else you did.
[08:00] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: yes man,but only the saslauth
[08:00] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: becouse the problem is only there.
[08:00] <protocol1> varka, Geforce FX 5500
[08:00] <Nuked> I cannot seem to see anything in the logs indicating what makes it freeze the way it does
[08:00] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: Which is most likely the package I said earlier, so what's the problem now?
[08:00] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> !build-essential
[08:00] <ubotu> Compiling software from source? Read the tips at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CompilingSoftware (But remember to search for pre-built !packages first: not all !repositories are enabled by default!)
[08:00] <Nuked> anyone?
[08:00] <protocol1> varka, which version should I use?
[08:01] <Paddy_EIRE> compengi, ok, I have a feeling it should work out of the box, if not the feisty livecd has a nice install drivers option before you run from the cd so it shouls not be to difficult
[08:01] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: the problem is that i want to reinstall the saslauth,and then to edit again.
[08:01] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso:
[08:01] <Lekrem> Nuked whats ur problem?
[08:01] <Assassin`> hmm how can i make k3b open when i put a cd in instead of sound juicer
[08:01] <computerjd> Alright, thanks Paddy, here's hoping
[08:01] <Assassin`> note: i removed sound juicer :)
[08:02] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: and what is preventing you from doing so at this point?
[08:02] <Xaara> hello, I'm completely new. Can I ask questions about device drivers here?
[08:02] <Nuked> Lekrem: gdm/kdm freeze on startup, and when i attempt to logout when I actually get a chance to log in, my computer freezes
[08:02] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: i don't know what to reinstall man?
[08:02] <protocol1> I have a Geforce FX 5500 which drivers are best to use to get 3d acceleration working?
[08:02] <varka> protocol1: nvidia-glx not legacy and not new
[08:02] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: probably the sasl2-bin package
[08:02] <Paddy_EIRE> Assassin`, xripp rocks
[08:02] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: ok moment
[08:02] <n2diy> Assassin`: from the system > preferred apps menu?
[08:03] <Assassin`> ok lemme see
[08:03] <Lekrem> Assasin: System --> Preferences --> Removable Drives and media
[08:03] <protocol1> varka, 9631?
[08:03] <Assassin`> sorry for asking so fast
[08:03] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: nooo error
[08:03] <varka> protocol1: yes
[08:03] <sudo> apt-get remove nvidia-glx
[08:03] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: can i send it to private msg.
[08:03] <Lekrem> Nuked what version of ubuntu and what window system?
[08:03] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: !pastebin would work better
[08:04] <Paddy_EIRE> Assassin`, sorry that was "ripper x" really cant get much better on any platform :D
[08:04] <Assassin`> ok
[08:04] <ubunt1> !pastebin
[08:04] <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)
[08:04] <Nuked> Lekrem: feisty x86_64, and kde, gnome, fvwm-crystal... you name it
[08:04] <Lekrem>  Assassin: System --> Preferences --> Removable Drives and media
[08:04] <protocol1> varka, ok ... going to try it
[08:04] <Assassin`> what about for burning and converting
[08:04] <Assassin`> yea i got it thanks lekrem
[08:04] <sudo> varka, : Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[08:04] <sudo> ?
[08:04] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24535/
[08:05] <n2diy> Assassin`: k3b
[08:05] <Lekrem> Nuked which one freezes (kde gnome ...)
[08:05] <Supermodified> Hey, I'm about to install Ubuntu and I'm on the last screen of the installation wizard, and I've gone to advanced options to set which HDD the boot loader will be installed to, and the default is (hd0), I was wondering how I find out which HDD that is referring to?
[08:05] <Assassin`> k3b converts ?
[08:05] <Nuked> Lekrem: all of them do upon logout
[08:05] <Hobbsee> Supermodified: means the MBR
[08:05] <protocol1> varka, should it work with the latest kernel?
[08:05] <Flannel> Supermodified: Do you have all IDE drives?  All SATA/SCSI drives?  a mixture of the two?
[08:05] <Xaara> hello, I found some Linux drivers for the Intel 82845 Extreme Graphics chip-set, but I don't know how to install them. Help???
[08:05] <Lekrem> nuked try reisntalling gdm
[08:05] <Nuked> Lekrem: its a seriously confusing problem
[08:05] <Rantaellu> hd0 is the sata0 or ide0 hd
[08:05] <Supermodified> both SATA
[08:05] <n2diy> Assassin`: imports, and exports ogs mp3s etc...
[08:06] <Supermodified> and im intsalling to the slave
[08:06] <Assassin`> i c
[08:06] <Nuked> Lekrem: i have the same problem with kdm
[08:06] <Supermodified> so hd1
[08:06] <jklo507> Does anyone know if the version of gcc that is distributed with the live cd is fully functional?
[08:06] <Flannel> Supermodified: then whichever is the first SATA drive, is hd0
[08:06] <tonyyarusso> ubunt1: dunno man
[08:06] <Assassin`> oggs are for what
[08:06] <Supermodified> cheers
[08:06] <mfonda>  I am having some issues copying files over to my ntfs mount. it will work fine for the first 7 or 8 files, then i will get "Operation not supported" for the rest, and not be able to copy over more than 8 files
[08:06] <ubunt1> tonyyarusso: ehhhh,man
[08:06] <Assassin`> like the cd extention?
[08:06] <Supermodified> so i dont need to refer to the SATA drive as sd1? hd1 is fine?
[08:06] <khin> ok, i downloaded sshd and it works now. my ssh server password is the same as my ubuntu password? can i make them different?
[08:06] <Flannel> jklo507: You need to install build-essential to get all the stuff you think you shld have.  It's on the CD (`apt-cdrom add` to add the CD as a repository).
[08:06] <n2diy> Assassin`: correction, Audacity does the  importing and exporting, k3b only does the writing,
[08:06] <Rantaellu> i am having ubuntun in vista on virtual pc :d
[08:07] <Paddy_EIRE> Anyone Know why "Ripper X" looks so rough???
[08:07] <jklo507> Thanks flannel :)
[08:07] <Supermodified> anyone?
[08:07] <Flannel> jklo507: ALL that's nstalled by default is 'gcc', no libraries or anything.  You're installing the rest of the stuff.
[08:07] <Myrtti> Good Morning Everyone!
[08:07] <Flannel> Supermodified: HD is for hard drive.
[08:07] <Lekrem> do your logs show anything?
[08:07] <pikeshouse88> so when will linux move to most of the stuff you're talking about being automatic like the rest of the operating systems?
[08:08] <Supermodified> yeah, but ive seen sd used for sata drives in linux, just checking
[08:08] <Lekrem> Nuked: do your logs show anything?
[08:08] <Nuked> Lekrem: nothing that i can decipher.... but then again i wouldnt know where to look
[08:08] <varka> protocol1: it'll work with the latest kernel provided by the automatic updater, not with a vanilla-kernel you installed manually
[08:08] <Rantaellu> sata drives works ok in ububtu
[08:08] <Flannel> Supermodified: That's within Linux.  GRUB is (mostly) outside of linux, it references HD, FD, CD, etc.  All done sort of in conjunction with the BIOS.
[08:08] <Supermodified> ok, got it. cheers
[08:08] <Nuked> lekrem i had someone look at my xorg logs and they said that was not the issue
[08:09] <Lekrem> hmm
[08:09] <Nuked> Lekrem: i will reboot into a gui and pastebin kdm logs and xorg
[08:09] <Lekrem> Nuked: that would help
[08:10] <Supermodified> just another quick question, is it alright to remove a swap partition from a previous attemtp to install Ubuntu?
[08:10] <protocol1> varka, I am using envy to install it
[08:11] <Flannel> Supermodified: you can remove, or re-use it, or leave it alone, or take it for a walk, or whatever.
[08:11] <varka> protocol1: do what you cant let be
[08:11] <Supermodified> Flannel: thanks, much appreciated, you've been really helpful
[08:11] <Assassin`> omg
[08:11] <Assassin`> how do i mount my cd drive to use kb3?
[08:11] <n2diy> Supermodified: If you aren't worried about data loss, yes, yo can create a new one  during the next install. Probably not a worry at all, as I would think swap is flushed during shutdown?
[08:11] <Assassin`> k3b
[08:13] <sx66> boo
[08:13] <n2diy> Assassin: are you in the GUI, Nautilus?
[08:14] <Nuked> Lekrem, I am going to post logs now
[08:14] <Lekrem> ok
[08:15] <sudo> varka, thank you. that envy fixed it all.
[08:16] <khin> question, i just downloaded sshd, but my pass is the same as my account pass. is there a way to change this?
[08:16] <varka> sudo: tikk the next kernel-update...
[08:17] <varka> sudo: till the next kernel-update...
[08:17] <stiv2k> hey is Intel core 2 duo 32bit or 64 bit ???????????

[08:17] <sudo> i see..
[08:17] <Lekrem> uh oh
[08:17] <khin> stiv2k i think 64
[08:17] <sudo> so each time i update kernal i must reinstall my drivers?
[08:17] <UB`> khin the ssh account is strict linked to your user account
[08:17] <BigBigBoy> sdf
[08:17] <Lekrem> nuked: u might have a bad hard drive
[08:17] <varka> sudo: if you dont use the ones from the repository...yes
[08:17] <Nuked> Lekrem, it only shows up once in all the logs I have looked at so far

[08:21] <Nuked> Lekrem, thats the only place I can find that kind of error, and I looked in kdm.log... that error message was in daemon.log
[08:22] <Nuked> Lekrem, this was the message right before that one Can't open default user face
[08:23] <varka> sudo: if you tried to install the drivers from the nvidia site before it could be difficult to install the ones from the repository as the installer often changes some links and configs which are differently needed for the driver from the repository
[08:23] <NemesisD> is there a way to change the font color of the applets in panel? i'm going for a transparent panel where everything is reable (i have a darkish bg)
[08:23] <Lekrem> Nuked: what again did you say about a memory error?

[08:28] <computerjd> alright, before i go and try to install this from CD, did anyone here have trouble installing linux on SLI 3112/3512 sata drives?
[08:28] <Nuked> what exactly is the purpose of memtest?
[08:28] <TaJMoX> I like good ol 'mount' for mounting =] 
[08:28] <jaypro> sx66> what do you mean "usb have jaypro"?
[08:28] <TaJMoX> nuked : if there is a problem with one of your chips
[08:28] <ubunt1> is there someone
[08:28] <ubunt1> how to see the line of the text
[08:28] <Nuked> TaJMoX, does it repair the problem?
[08:28] <sx66> I have booted from winxp on a 2gb thumb drive, jaypro
[08:28] <TaJMoX> nuked : it tests for hardware problems
[08:29] <Nuked> TaJMoX, and if one is found what do I do?
[08:29] <jaypro> sx66> oh.  well, i currently dual boot.  but, if i could get winxp running through virtualbox, i wouldnt need to dual boot
[08:29] <TaJMoX> Nuked : return it to where u bought it and tell them its no good - if ur in waranty
[08:30] <TaJMoX> ubunt1 : i can read a line of text   =p
[08:30] <Nuked> *!?#$ im not TaJMoX that means I have to replace it?
[08:30] <TaJMoX> nuked : yes
[08:30] <Nuked> that seriously sucks
[08:30] <ubunt1> TaJMoX: i have install ubuntu server,and i need to see the line of the text.
[08:30] <TaJMoX> nuked : unless ur system runs fine with it
[08:30] <TaJMoX> ubunt1 : i dont understand
[08:30] <TaJMoX> what line of text
[08:30] <sx66> jaypro, do you mount first before partitioning?
[08:31] <ubunt1> TaJMoX: i have install ubuntu server,the line of the,for exemple line 5
[08:31] <TaJMoX> sx66 : the partition has to be un-mounted if you want to modify it
[08:31] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> !aptitude
[08:31] <ubotu> aptitude is another terminal-based front-end to APT, like apt-get. However, aptitude can remember the dependencies installed with a package and remove them if you uninstall. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/AptitudeSurvivalGuide
[08:31] <jack_> get gparted livecd. it can do all
[08:31] <Flannel> ubunt1: Stay away from the howtoforge setup walkthrough things.  They're usually bad and do stupid things.
[08:32] <ubunt1> Flannel: why don't you tell me before man.
[08:32] <ubunt1> Flannel: now how can i remove sasl2bin?
[08:32] <Flannel> ubunt1: help.ubuntu.com has plenty of help, most of anything you'll need will be there.
[08:32] <jaypro> sx66> huh?  i installed xp first, then ubuntu.  split the harddrive 50/50
[08:32] <ubunt1> Flannel: and now how to return all to the default,reinstall ubuntu server?
[08:32] <sx66> TaJMoX, jaypro, I want to install ubuntu on my old sony, dual boot, I have two partitions on the HDD, then a swap of 512 mb, and a 10gb other partition should I have had "/" first?
[08:33] <mdious> i always like using mandrake community 10.1 cd one...always loved diskdrake for partitioning :)
[08:33] <cas3> I can't get lircd to work, do I need to recompile my kernel in order for it to work?
[08:33] <Flannel> ubunt1: depending on what you've done... you'll need to undo it.  Reinstalling will definately work (and in some cases, depending on how much stuff you have that oyu need to keep, is much easier)
[08:33] <cas3> !lirc
[08:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about lirc - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:33] <TaJMoX> sx66 it doesnt matter what order the partitions are in really

[08:34] <ubunt1> Flannel: man i will not reinstall,i lost 1 night
[08:34] <ubunt1> Flannel: i will see if not,del partition and only ubuntu desktop
[08:34] <sx66> TaJMoX, not as in order, when I started the partition I did not mount the point, should I have selected that first when partitoning?
[08:34] <TaJMoX> sx66 : if you want to install ubuntu onto a hard drive - it needs to have un-used space... like non-partitioned space.    then you can make the ext2/3 partition for what / is mounted on
[08:34] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> there ussed to be a package including all dev libraries of SDL_* in edgy repos .. any idea if there is one for 7.04 ?
[08:35] <TaJMoX> sx66 : root=/dev/hdaX   is the boot option for where you want / to be mounted
[08:35] <Flannel> GreyGhost-Ubuntu: do you know what the package name was in Edgy?
[08:35] <TaJMoX> sx66 : that is in your /boot/grub/menu.lst
[08:35] <Shaddox> Hi everyone. How do I completely remove an application from a system, including all of the configuration files and everything?
[08:35] <sx66> TaJMoX, okay, so I need the freespace mounted before the partition is selected.
[08:35] <Flannel> Shaddox: in synaptic, it's "complete removal", with apt-get it's with --purge
[08:35] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> Flannel ,sorry no . i installed i longgg ago.. oh well.. i'll just apt-cache search till i find it then :(
[08:36] <Flannel> GreyGhost-Ubuntu: or packages.ubuntu.com, yeah.  Good luck.
[08:36] <Shaddox> Flannel: I'm forced on a shell connection, it's a remote machine and I don't have any GUI's/Xorg on it. ^^
[08:36] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> Flannel ,thanks :)
[08:36] <Flannel> Shaddox: then with --purge (apt-get remove --purge [package] )
[08:36] <sx66> almost done, boy does this HDD suck! slow, slow slow
[08:36] <Shaddox> Flannel: Thanks!
[08:36] <posporo_pechay> can ubuntu be installed to Sharp Zaurus C3200?
[08:37] <TaJMoX> sx66 you cant mount free space
[08:37] <jack_> how do i list all programs installed?
[08:37] <Shaddox> Flannel: Removing Postfix and Dovecot from my system to reinstall with fresh configs, and want to make sure I get rid of everything I screwed up first.
[08:37] <jack_> how do i list all programs installed by apt-get?
[08:37] <posporo_pechay> can ubuntu be installed to Sharp Zaurus C3200?
[08:37] <ubunt1> Flannel: if i remove the user and then create new is there will be new sasl?
[08:37] <Flannel> jack_: `dpkg -l` (that's an L) will list all the packages (it'll be long)
[08:37] <bibstha> hi everyone
[08:38] <Shaddox> posporo_pechay: The Sharp Zaurus C3200 is a PDA, according to my research.
[08:38] <Flannel> ubunt1: No.  Users don't affect the programs installed.
[08:38] <mdious> jack_:  dpkg --get-selections might help
[08:38] <Shaddox> posporo_pechay: No existing versions of Ubuntu will work on any PDA's that I know of.
[08:38] <sx66> TaJMoX, the partition should be logical? or primary for as ext3 (beginning) mount point "/"
[08:38] <metres> Hi all, is there an easy way to downgrade xorg to 7.1 version on feisty ?
[08:38] <bibstha> anyway to install kubuntu from the kubuntu live cd??
[08:38] <sx66> metres, why would you want to do that?
[08:38] <posporo_pechay> what linux disto then?
[08:38] <Flannel> bibstha: What version of Kubuntu?
[08:39] <metres> video driver (fglrx) wont work on xorg7.2 for my video card
[08:39] <bibstha> i have ubuntu 7.04 installed and kubuntu 7.04 cd
[08:39] <bibstha> so i want to install kubuntu on top of ubuntu
[08:39] <Flannel> bibstha: Ah.  No.  You need the alternate CD, or just the internet.
[08:40] <bibstha> Flannel: oh, how come,
[08:40] <sx66> TaJMoX, you with me?
[08:40] <n2diy> posporo_pechay: DSL, damn small linux, or Puppy.
[08:40] <bibstha> Flannel: i didn't find any .deb files :( strangely
[08:40] <GreyGhost-Ubuntu> just wondering was upgrading fixed with 7.04 ? i just clean installed myself ..
[08:40] <posporo_pechay> thanks for the info
[08:40] <varka> posporo_pechay: DeLi Linux
[08:41] <TaJMoX> sx66 : you can have 4 primary partitions - after than you need one to be an extended partition - which is just a container for more partitions
[08:41] <TaJMoX> sx66 : if you have a total of 4 partitions - make them all primary
[08:41] <Flannel> bibstha: Because the DEsktop (liveCDs) are an image, and install from the image (just copies the bytes sort of).  The alternate CD is all done via deb files (its basically a local repository).  The Desktop CD *does* however have a few select packages on it.  But as far as installing, it only knows how to install *everything* by dumb copying (more or less).
[08:41] <n2diy> varka: DeLi linux, that is a new one to me, have a link to it?
[08:42] <sx66> thank you TaJMoX
[08:42] <varka> n2diy: http://delili.lens.hl-users.com/index.html
[08:42] <bibstha> Flannel: thanks a lot, if i had known it earlier, i wouldn't waste my bandwidth on ubuntu, kubuntu and edubunto desktop isos :(
[08:42] <Flannel> n2diy: it's designed with older hardware in mind.  2.4 kernel, etc.
[08:42] <sx66> ekkk, the window disappeared for partiting
[08:43] <n2diy> varka: Roger, sounds good, thanks.
[08:43] <p0wn3d> hi everyone, wondering what you guys use to write gtk2 apps, I tried Code::Blocks and found it acceptable for most tasks, but I still haven't found a useful GUI builder
[08:43] <jaypro> anyone install windows xp through virtualbox?
[08:43] <Flannel> bibstha: Same thing goes for upgrading (needing alt CD, desktop wont work).  If you're planning on doing that from CDs in the future.
[08:43] <mdious> gotta run, catcha's
[08:43] <n2diy> Flannel: roger that.
[08:44] <p0wn3d> anyone??
[08:44] <squeegee> how do i make myself root?
[08:45] <Flannel> squeegee: You don't need to.  Use sudo per command.
[08:45] <TaJMoX> squeegee : why ?
[08:45] <kimmey> su root
[08:45] <Flannel> kimmey: no.  That won't work, and it's unnecessary in Ubuntu ayway.
[08:45] <TaJMoX> sudo -i
[08:45] <squeegee> for file permissions
[08:46] <olkalau> Flannel, i cant see the other computers that are running on ubuntu on the network, please help
[08:46] <Flannel> squeegee: use sudo, or `sudo -i` if you need to do a few things.
[08:46] <kimmey> Flannel: that works fine here in ubuntu 7.04..
[08:46] <squeegee> i can't change stuff in most directories
[08:46] <TaJMoX> squeegee : use sudo
[08:46] <p0wn3d> squeegee:  sudo su && passwd root && su root
[08:46] <Flannel> kimmey: It won't work because su only works after you have a root password, which ubuntu does not.
[08:46] <Flannel> p0wn3d: please don't recommend setting a root password in this channel.  It's completely unnecessary
[08:46] <kimmey> and if he has set the root-password, it works..
[08:47] <p0wn3d> I know it is not recommended
[08:47] <olkalau> Flannel, can you help with this?
[08:47] <TaJMoX> squeegee : if for example you want to change a file do: sudo nano filename
[08:47] <twidle> i really dunno why u shouldnt set the root password
[08:47] <Flannel> olkalau: How do you mean "see"?
[08:47] <Flannel> !sudo | twidle
[08:47] <ubotu> twidle: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:47] <tonyyarusso> twidle: security
[08:47] <TaJMoX> if you want to change permission do sudo chmod
[08:48] <n2diy> p0wn3d: if you know it is not recommended, why recommend it?
[08:48] <procrastinator> Hmm, I was wondering if anyone could help me or point me in the right direction towards making the terminal transparent?  I don't want it to show the desktop, rather the window(s) behind it.
[08:48] <p0wn3d> I am NOT recommending it
[08:48] <twidle> insecurity is to have sudo misconfigured
[08:48] <TaJMoX> twidle : if the root user is disabled - it is highly less probable you will get compromised by a random person
[08:48] <squeegee> i'm trying to install java, and i can't put it in the /usr/java directory, b/c the java "installer" can't write stuff into that dir
[08:48] <p0wn3d> he asked how to become root, i just answered his question
[08:48] <Flannel> !java | squeegee
[08:48] <ubotu> squeegee: To install a Java compiler/interpreter on Ubuntu, look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Java - For the Sun Java runtime install sun-java5-jre from the !Multiverse repository. Enable the backports repository on Edgy to install sun-java6-jre
[08:48] <squeegee> @flannel  ^^
[08:48] <n2diy> p0wn3d: umm, ok.
[08:48] <squeegee> oh
[08:48] <squeegee> ty
[08:48] <olkalau> Flannel, as in i try opening the workgroup folder in network and it says there are no contents to display
[08:49] <Flannel> p0wn3d: If he asked how to chmod his entire filetree, you would tell him immediately as well?
[08:49] <TaJMoX> i would
[08:49] <p0wn3d> Flannel, I would have
[08:49] <jussi01au> Ok, I have an issue, x doesnt start, its giving me some font error...
[08:49] <twidle> TaJMoX: in my point of view its the same.. uid 0 still exists
[08:49] <SillyZ> Greetings, need a lil help setting up a Dazzle DVC-100
[08:49] <Flannel> p0wn3d: That's a bad habit.  Please try to keep people from unknowingly breaking their computers.
[08:50] <olkalau> Flannel?
[08:50] <Flannel> olkalau: I have no idea.
[08:50] <squeegee> Flannel: how do i enable backports?
[08:50] <p0wn3d> That is very nobel, Flannel
[08:50] <SillyZ> the DVC-100 is connected to a security camera outside, and I would like to be able to record the video feed.....
[08:50] <jussi01au> I have done a reconfigure of xserver but still nothing
[08:50] <digdug> has anyone got a bcm4312 card working with ubuntu without patching and recompiling the kernel?
[08:50] <factorx> What does the second column in "ls -l" mean?
[08:51] <SillyZ> lists permissions, owner, group, user
[08:51] <SillyZ> ie: long format
[08:51] <sx66> what is a shortcut key for switching desktops?
[08:51] <factorx> SillyZ: that doesn't answer my question ;)
[08:51] <n2diy> factorx: that is the owner of the file.
[08:51] <clearzen> sx66: ctrl+alt f1-f7
[08:51] <p0wn3d> olkaulau - smb share?
[08:52] <factorx> n2diy: no, i mean the column before that
[08:52] <sx66> clearzen, that is for windows, I mean workspaceses
[08:52] <clearzen> sx66:oh, I mean f7-f10 for x sessions actually
[08:52] <factorx> the single number between permissions and the owner
[08:52] <procrastinator> nvm to my question
[08:52] <clearzen> sx66: in beryl it's ctrl+alt and a arrow key
[08:52] <digdug> sx66: also ctrl + alt + left arrow or right arrow should work
[08:52] <rosalia> hola
[08:53] <p0wn3d> hello
[08:53] <n2diy> factorx: Good question, I don't know!?
[08:53] <factorx> :D
[08:53] <rosalia> hi
[08:53] <sx66> clearzen, in beryl is just switches nothing...is there an edit menu in the settings?
[08:53] <SillyZ> what would I gain by using beryl , ive heard alot about it recently
[08:53] <n2diy> factorx: man bash?
[08:54] <hatter> can i use the proprietary ati driver for dual head and also use xinerama with a 3rd pci monitor ?
[08:54] <Flannel> squeegee: usually you don't want to enable backports, instead just want to install single packages.  I believe the wiki page has instructions on both methods, however.
[08:54] <clearzen> sx66: what menu?
[08:54] <factorx> n2diy: if the answer is in any manpage, then it's in man ls, but it isn't
[08:54] <sx66> clearzen, found it, thank you
[08:54] <p0wn3d> sx66, do you have the cube AND the rotate plugins running?
[08:54] <clearzen> sx66: cool
[08:54] <rosalia> hi
[08:55] <sx66> p0wn3d, how do you make beryl on a cube?
[08:55] <n2diy> factorx: ok, could hey be child processes?
[08:55] <squeegee> flannel: thanks, i'll look at it again
[08:55] <n2diy> hey/they
[08:55] <sx66> p0wn3d, as in 3d...
[08:55] <p0wn3d> sx66, run the beryl settings manager
[08:55] <factorx> n2diy: no, since ls does not list processes but files
[08:56] <clearzen> sx66: It's in beryl settings manager
[08:56] <p0wn3d> enable the cube and rotate plugins, press ctl-alt-arrow left or right
[08:56] <clearzen> sx66: and then desktop

[09:02] <sx66> clearzen, I would like a desktop cube 3d, not a window selector, do I just drag the window up? or how do I enable the 3d cube?
[09:02] <baudthief> any ideas?
[09:02] <baudthief> sx66: ctrl+alt then drag
[09:02] <digdug> though I think the gui is written in java; it'll still compile c++ though
[09:02] <p0wn3d> thx digdug, I've been watching Eclipse closely, their gui plugin does not support C++ yet, here's hoping it does soon
[09:02] <digdug> oh
[09:03] <Flannel> sx66: #ubuntu-effects for beryl related support.  If theres no one awake, I think the topic has some good URLs
[09:03] <insmod> hmm audacity is borked in ubuntu
[09:03] <clearzen> sx66: right click the beryl manager >> beryl settings manager >> destop tab at the top >> check desktop cube. Other options will appear on the right window
[09:04] <phylogenesis>  I set Ctrl+T to run a terminal in System->Preferences->Keyboard Shortcuts, but it doesn't work
[09:04] <n2diy> insmod: why do you say that?
[09:04] <phylogenesis>  I tried disabling it, and re-enabling it and it still doesn't work
[09:04] <digdug> is there a kernel package already compiled that will work with the bcm4312 cards?
[09:04] <p0wn3d> Flannel, nice!, there is a channel for beryl questions now!
[09:05] <Bogaurd> if I 'cat' a file, is there a way to run something like grep to remove a timestamp from each line?
[09:05] <p0wn3d> Bogaurd, sed is your friend
[09:05] <p0wn3d> man sed
[09:05] <clearzen> Bogaurd: sed or touch could do that
[09:05] <clearzen> Bogaurd: touch will change it
 it records the other tracks to the new one
[09:05] <Bogaurd> clearzen: what will sed do?
[09:06] <n2diy> p0wn3d: Flannel, thanks for  that, now if Dapper could have their own channel, things would be cool.
[09:06] <baudthief> I somehow managed to disable the "updates available" thing in ubuntu, how do I re-enable it?
[09:06] <clearzen> Bogaurd: add or remove text to groups of files is one use.
 even with no mic -- and adds gain -- and the volume and line in options don't function
[09:06] <Lekrem> i did System --> Preferences --> Sessions and clicked on save, and now it starts the same session every time, how do i get it to go away
[09:06] <Frogzoo> phylogenesis: logout & back in
[09:06] <p0wn3d> Bogaurd: http://sed.sourceforge.net/grabbag/tutorials/
[09:07] <p0wn3d> hope urls are ok in this channel, if not apologies
[09:07] <phylogenesis> Frogzoo:  I've restarted my computer completely
[09:07] <aa^way> hello, please anyone suggest me a FTP, no commandline ftp please :)
[09:07] <p0wn3d> aa^way, gFtp is pretty good
[09:07] <phylogenesis> The first time I noticed it didn't work was after I upgraded to Fiesty and installed Beryl
[09:07] <n2diy> insmod: Add gain only works after you record the track, at least here on Dapper. Not sure what your other problem is?
[09:07] <baudthief> aa^way: as in kftp_grabber
[09:08] <baudthief> *-as in
[09:08] <phylogenesis> (although I searched Beryl's shortcuts and I didn't find <Control>T)
[09:08] <Frogzoo> phylogenesis: you could try ctrl + atl + t
[09:09] <ubuntuFTW> flannel: did you get my pm?
[09:09] <p0wn3d> phylogenesis, or the always popular Meta key ... meta + T
it add the other track into the new one recorded -- even if i have no mic on the other track is added ass the new and gain is aplied without actualy doing anything
[09:10] <phylogenesis> p0wn3d:  (are you pnwed in ##C++?)  what's the meta key, and for that matter, what's the super key?
[09:10] <murphjr>  ##linux
[09:11] <aa^way> p0wn3d: i tryed gFTP, it works well but it sometimes freezez on specified FTP :\, baudthief: what is that? cant access it through apt-get :P?
[09:11] <n2diy> insmod: You can mute the original track?
[09:12] <abcdef> anyone here?
why would i want to  do that -- how can i hear it then
[09:12] <abcdef> when i set chmod 700 /var/lib/bitlbee; chown nobody:nobody /var/lib/bitlbee, how do unset it?
[09:12] <p0wn3d> phylogenesis, nothing special, just my personal pref, I map super to my Winders key and use that + T to launch terminals
audacity: src/hostapi/oss/pa_unix_oss.c:1611: PaOSS_AudioThreadProc: Assertion `frames == framesAvail' failed.
[09:12] <insmod> Aborted (core dumped)
[09:12] <roel_> I just bought a sony vaio with core2 proc. Should I install ubuntu 32-bit or 64-bit??
[09:12] <p0wn3d> phylogenesis, just that those shortcuts usually don't conflict with anything
[09:12] <n2diy> insmod: So you can listen to the new track, with out interference from the old one?
[09:13] <hylje> roel_: 32bit has more drivers and third-party proprietary software
ah no -- the both record to the new track -- see my piont
like a mix
[09:13] <roel_> yeah but it is compiled for 486 right? will it be a lot slower then?
[09:14] <Frogzoo> roel_: unquestionnably 32 bit
[09:14] <Hobbsee> tonyyarusso: seems removable
[09:15] <Frogzoo> roel_: not so as you'll notice
[09:15] <phylogenesis> p0wn3d:  how do I map the super key, and what is the meta key?
[09:15] <roel_> well I compile a lot, I do VHDL synthesis and like to watch high quality movies
[09:16] <n2diy> insmod:  Sorry my friend, I'm missing the point, if it was like a mixer, just mute the unwanted track? I'm kinda new to Audacity, but I have been playing with it recently. Maybe you need to save one track as a project, and record the new track in a different project, and cut and paste between them?

[09:18] <n2diy> So have I
[09:18] <J-_> do i need any other packages to build .package?
i record a track then record another -- but even  when i mute the previous the new one also has recorded the old track to it
i know
[09:18] <n2diy> insmod: Your right, I don't. It is late here, 0318 hrs local time.
[09:18] <Toma-> insmod: recording on 2 tracks?
[09:19] <YanZh>  ubotu  thanks, seems friendlier than frog's one
 the new track has both
[09:19] <ziroday> insmod: you need to first open a new track then record onto that new one

[09:20] <n2diy> insmod: So, your saying, even though you mute the original track, it doesn't mute, and is recorded to the second track?
 i record A play A-- A=A  i record B play B and get AB -- yes i do

[09:21] <YanZh> i've got a little problem, my ubuntu does not configure my modules anymore. Like if it does not take what is in modprob.d. They are loaded with defaults option....and it does not work

[09:21] <rosalia> wat do you want?

[09:22] <dinamizadorcomar> vamos a ver..... alguien habla en este chat???
[09:22] <Frogzoo> YanZh: did you rebuild any custom modules after the recent kernel upgrade?
[09:23] <n2diy> insmod: That is AFU! And I don't think it is your fault,  sounds like a bug to me. Here on Dapper, I can record a track fine, but try and record a second track, and it sounds like I was talking into a tin can. Don't know how to fix other then copy and paste.
[09:23] <Toma-> insmod: i see... have you kept your old /home settings?

[09:31] <Supermodified> in the menu.lst file for GRUB, under my Vista profile is has some lines that say 'map (hd0) (hd1)' and 'map (hd1) (hd0)'. what do they mean?
[09:32] <YanZh> nobody got's a clue to solve my problem?
[09:33] <CheshireViking> Supermodified, The map option switches hd0 and hd1 and makes it appear that hd1 is the primary drive, it sounds as though Vista is installed on your second drive (or 2nd partition?) rather than being the first installed O/S
[09:34] <Supermodified> yeah, ive been trying to dual boot ubuntu with vista
[09:34] <koshar1> supermodified i would imagine they are pointing to sata partitions as grub only had hd** options

[09:43] <misfit> hi everyone
[09:43] <CheshireViking> Supermodified, have a look at this website about Grub, about halfway down, there's a section on using Supergrub disk to reinstall & fix grub, and just below that there's a section on troubleshooting, maybe there's something there that will help

[09:44] <bud_ice_kinda_ni> we ran super grub disc..  fixed it auto magically
[09:44] <Supermodified> cheers
[09:44] <misfit> I'm having trouble burning any type of cd with ubuntu
[09:44] <misfit> My system freezes when I try to burn a disc

[09:45] <bud_ice_kinda_ni> funny.. getting that core dumped message using azureus
[09:45] <bud_ice_kinda_ni> what gives?
[09:46] <misfit> @devnul, what's dmesg?
[09:46] <phylogenesis> How can I get Ubuntu to recognize all 512MB of my RAM, "free" reports only 222228(I assume KB).  I have 2 256MB chips, both the same type, but one was not bought with the computer
[09:46] <devnull> misfit, man dmesg
[09:46] <misfit> k, give me a moment
[09:47] <devnull> misfit, dmesg prints useful kernel msgs
[09:47] <bud_ice_kinda_ni> phylogenesis, you pc is capable of more ram..  right?
[09:47] <bud_ice_kinda_ni> it's not topped out?
[09:47] <misfit> devnull, is there something in particular I should keep an eye out for?
[09:47] <phylogenesis> bud_ice_kinda_ni:  correct, up to 2GB, 2 1GB chips possible
[09:48] <devnull> misfit, any kind of errors on your device, I had a problem similar to yours and it turned out to be a dma conflict
[09:48] <devnull> misfit, people in this channel or ubuntuforums can better help you if you can show them those errors
[09:48] <bud_ice_kinda_ni> just curious..  some ppl don't know they have a limit is all..  got me some free ram once thanks to such an individual
[09:48] <bud_ice_kinda_ni> no ideas, sorry
[09:48] <misfit> I got a really long string of data, devnull.
[09:49] <Supermodified> ok, i downloaded SuperGRUB and unzipped it, do i put the sgd_usb_0.9590 folder on the USB drive, or the boot folder within it?

[09:55] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter, try gparted
[09:55] <Pirate_Hunter> sorry im lkike newb pro at this so have no clue
[09:55] <bud_ice_kinda_ni> core dumping sucks
[09:55] <Tudot> Quick noob question: How do I locate a file through the terminal?
[09:55] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter, http://gparted.sourceforge.net/
[09:55] <felipefonseca> hey all
[09:55] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:  meybe if you explain better your problem
[09:56] <noiesmo> Tudot, locate filename
[09:56] <felipefonseca> I have just noticed my home folder is full of core.* files
[09:56] <bucat__> i can help you well in partition problem
[09:56] <Tudot> ah. Simple... thank you. :-)
[09:56] <noiesmo> Tudot, to update the info us sudo updatedb
[09:56] <devnull> Tudot, find -name filename ...
[09:56] <bud_ice_kinda_ni> why does azureus suddenly dump core?
[09:56] <felipefonseca> anyone know what could that be?
[09:56] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat its like this ive got the filesystem working but i have another HD which is partitioned into two, both have no data.
[09:57] <CheshireViking> Pirate_Hunter, from what you've said, they're blank partitions, are they formatted?
[09:57] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat if i go to system>disk> and find the HD they have no path so they can't be accssed
[09:57] <maeth> what video driver should i install in a virtual machine?
[09:57] <paras> channel, when i create a partion from cfdisk i need to reboot the machine once to see the entry in  /dev . is there any way so that the device in /dev is created automaticalyy  after creating partioton from cfdisk? i am using udev
[09:57] <maeth> my video card driver?? or other?
[09:57] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter, use parted or gparted and format them to ext3 or any other fs that ubuntu understands
[09:58] <Pirate_Hunter> Yeah they are partioned but i didnt give no access path cause the last time I did I gave it home and things went wrong
[09:58] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:  just to know but you are installing ubuntu? or you have installed and you cannot see one partition
[09:58] <bucat__> ?
[09:58] <Pirate_Hunter> they are partitioned to ext3
[09:58] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter, ah...
[09:58] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter, did you try mount ....?
[09:58] <Pirate_Hunter> My main HD has ubuntu and XP and than I ahve 2 other HDs
[09:58] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:  mmm yes that's fine ext3
[09:59] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:  ok
[09:59] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:  well go in the shell
[09:59] <misfit> Devnull, I can't run the dmesg command while I attempt to burn a cd... it freezes the system.
[09:59] <misfit> Any other suggestions?
[09:59] <devnull> misfit, try:  tail -f  /var/log/dmesg
[09:59] <Pirate_Hunter> the third HD i want it just for ubuntu, it is partioned with ext3 but has no access path and I dont know what to put so now I cnat access it
[09:59] <Supermodified> i am the master
[09:59] <misfit> ok
[09:59] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:  and type mount /media/sda(number of your hd)
[10:00] <Supermodified> finally got ubuntu/grub working
[10:00] <Supermodified> all it took was to switch my two HDDs
[10:00] <BiTMAP__> I feel dumb asking but, how does one lets say, remove some of the apps under sound & video menu, (i have alot as i installed the ubustu packages, some of the apps dont work with my sound card and I would like to remove a couple and or reposition them)
[10:00] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat when u say shell u mean terminal
[10:00] <Pirate_Hunter> is that right
[10:00] <devnull> bucat, don't forget the mount point:  sudo mount /media/sda# /media/somewhere
[10:00] <Myrtti> BiTMAP__: add/remove software
[10:00] <BiTMAP__> Myrtti: do you mean add/remove applications?
[10:00] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:  terminal yes
[10:01] <Myrtti> BiTMAP__: yeah, sorry
[10:01] <Supermodified> why cant i set my resolution higher than 1024x768?
[10:01] <BiTMAP__> thats ok, thanks, i just changed it to "installed applications"
[10:01] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat so i just type that and i will be able to save data into those partitions
[10:01] <noiesmo> Supermodified, you might need to set vertrefresh and horisrefresh in xorg.conf
[10:01] <misfit> devnull, the output was much shorter this time, but I don't see anything referring to a cdrom drive
[10:01] <devnull> did the burn fail?
[10:01] <BiTMAP__> second question, I cant seem to get ubuntu when i log in to remember my display resolution, it is being set by the nvidia server settings util
[10:02] <misfit> to me it did, haha
[10:02] <Supermodified> noiesmo: sorry, im a linux newb. would you be able to elaborate?
[10:02] <Frogzoo> BiTMAP__: sys -> prefs -> menus & toolbars
[10:02] <BiTMAP__> I got it to remember the settings right until it logs in, then it defualts to a low res
[10:02] <BiTMAP__> ok
[10:02] <Supermodified> oh wait
[10:02] <Supermodified> i just realised
[10:02] <Supermodified> i havent installed nvidia drivers yet
[10:02] <Supermodified> my bad
[10:02] <noiesmo> Supermodified, ok check this http://noiesmo.dnsalias.net/article.php?story=20070425134856694 I have my example xorg.conf
[10:02] <posporo_pechay> +639063816099
[10:02] <BiTMAP__> not quite what i am looking for now frog, but thank you.
[10:02] <Supermodified> thanks anyway
[10:02] <misfit> no matter what program though, it stops at the point where it says "preparing disc drive" or "cdr drive" and then the system just freezes
[10:03] <noiesmo> Supermodified, the link will help you install nvidia droivers also
[10:03] <Supermodified> really? nice. thanks
[10:03] <misfit> So it doesn't give an error message or anything, it just freezes.
[10:03] <noiesmo> Supermodified, np :0
[10:03] <Lekrem> misfit: how long r u waiting?
[10:03] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:  ...i want know because may i have not understand you can see that partitions from linux or no? you problem is only you cannot save in that partition?
[10:03] <wilk_> hi all, does someone know where synaptic stores its configuration date ? It's behaving strangely lately
[10:03] <devnull> misfit, arghh, that makes it harder, if you are hardware savvy, I would move the CDR to a different IDE channel
[10:03] <misfit> lekrem, you mean for it to start?
[10:04] <devnull> Lekrem, system should never freeze though
[10:04] <Lekrem> misfit when it says preparing does the computer freeze or just the progam?
[10:04] <BiTMAP__> hmm, this isnt so nice, you have to remove all of the ubuntu studio audio apps just to remove one :|
[10:05] <misfit> lekrem, both of them do.  I can't wiggle the mouse either, and ctrl-alt-backspace doesn't work.
[10:05] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat u said for me to do this "mount /media/sda" but HD is shhown as hdb1 in system>disk
[10:05] <misfit> devnull, do you mean I should try swapping the cables on the back of the cd-rom?
[10:05] <Lekrem> misift: ohh
[10:05] <misfit> I have a burner and a dvd-player.
[10:06] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:...well.....your real problem is you cannot save in your partition  right yes or not?
[10:06] <Pirate_Hunter> yes
[10:06] <devnull> misfit, might have asked you to do something that is too involved for you
[10:06] <Pirate_Hunter> thats so correct
[10:06] <sx66> !theme

[10:06] <devnull> misfit, but if you know how to do it, I would remove all drives and leave just the HD and CDR, and connect each to a diff channel
[10:07] <misfit> devnull, that's actually a good idea, I never thought of that.
[10:07] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:...well.....you have problem with permission
[10:07] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter,  dude, humor me:   sudo su  ...  mkdir /media/hdpart1    ... mount /dev/hdb1 /media/hdpart1
[10:08] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:..you must read wiki permission
[10:08] <misfit> Here's the thing though, I can dual-boot XP and it works just fine there, without any IDE cable swapping.
[10:08] <Pirate_Hunter> devnull remeber i am a beginer in ubuntu, ive been a windows user for a long time
[10:08] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat so how do i change permisson
[10:08] <Yert> hey, samba Q
[10:09] <devnull> misfit, ah, in that case I throw the towel, would still try just leaving the HD and the CDR drive to test
[10:09] <misfit> haha
[10:09] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter, no problem, just trying to help
[10:09] <sudo> how can i place items in a auto start dir such as the windows "startup" dir?
[10:09] <Yert> smbd/service.c:set_current_service(150) chdir (/media/sdb1) failed
[10:09] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat if I try to format the partition it will ask for access path which I don't know what to give
[10:09] <Pirate_Hunter> it is really frustrating
[10:10] <Yert> encrypt passwds = yes, share is browseable = yes, guest ok = yes
[10:10] <misfit> Yeah, my computer's a little older and I'm just learning linux on my own.  The cd-rom probably just sucks anyway.
[10:10] <devnull> bucat, Pirate_Hunter, can we take this from the top?
[10:10] <devnull> bucat_, Pirate_Hunter,  when you run "mount" with no args, is your device listed there???
[10:10] <EnsignRedshirt> Hello, world.
[10:11] <misfit> If there's no cd in the cdrw beforehand, it won't open unless I stab at it with a paperclip.
[10:11] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. if you want  do something in your computer you must be ROot
[10:11] <noiesmo> Hello, EnsignRedshirt
[10:11] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. if you ARE NORMAL user you cannot do many thing because you are not root
[10:11] <Genomsaren> hi How can I exit from a manual, while looking it in console?
[10:12] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat lol I'm the admin
[10:12] <Yert> Genomsaren: q
[10:12] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. do you know "sudo"? you must read in the wiki documents as change permission of your partitions
[10:12] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter, here's my take:  Ubuntu sees your device and partition, but you can not access them because they are not mounted
[10:12] <EnsignRedshirt> I temporarily changed my screen resolution from 1600x1200 to 800x600.  When I restored it to 1600x1200, the menus in the top menu bar (Application Places System) are now stuck in the middle of the menu bar instead of being on the left.  How can I put the menu back where they were?
[10:12] <phantom_> I have Ubuntu with kde installed. When starting it in Kde I dont have the option xgl and kde. how do I get it???
[10:12] <phantom_>  In gnome it's olready installed and worcks good with beryl.
[10:12] <sudo> how can i place items in a auto start dir such as the windows "startup" dir?
[10:12] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat now you understand why I'm frustrated, I am the admin there are no normal users yet
[10:12] <misfit> Is there a way to give myself root privileges without using the sudo or su commands?
[10:12] <sudo> yes
[10:12] <sudo> sudo -s
[10:12] <sudo> login as root
[10:12] <sudo> =/
[10:13] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat so I have to learn sudo
[10:13] <Genomsaren> thanks
[10:13] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. go to terminal
[10:13] <Pirate_Hunter> kk got terminal
[10:13] <bucat__> and type: sudo -i
[10:13] <bucat__> put your password and you will become root
[10:13] <misfit> does that also give you root privileges in the GUI, sudo?
[10:13] <Deviad> re
[10:13] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: on a default ubuntu install, the first user is still not root - type sudo -s at a console, then your user password, then you'll have a root shell.  If you insist on enabling root access, then you can type passwd at that prompt to set the root password
[10:13] <devnull> sudo, System/Preferences/Sessions
[10:13] <EnsignRedshirt> Pirate_Hunter: "so I have to learn sudo"... yes.  This is not your father's linux :)
[10:14] <Deviad> I have compiled an ubuntu 2.6.20 kernel after patching it with mactel patches. On boot now I get "kernel panic not syincing: attempting to kill init"
[10:14] <BiTMAP_> bah, who needs root :P
[10:14] <Yert> I've been using sudo since Slack 3 :)
[10:14] <sudo> how can i place items in a auto start dir such as the windows "startup" dir?
[10:14] <Deviad> Can anyone pls tell me what this is due to?
[10:14] <phantom_> I have Ubuntu with kde installed. When starting it in Kde I dont have the option xgl and kde. how do I get it???
[10:14] <misfit> Is there a way to have root privileges in the GUI?
[10:14] <phylogenesis> How do I open an rpm archive?
[10:15] <sudo> rpm file.rpm
[10:15] <Yert> misfit - start the gui program from a root terminal
[10:15] <sudo> apt-get install rpm
[10:15] <phylogenesis> I'm trying to download SDL, but when I double-click the rpm, the archive manager opens and says it's not a valid format
[10:15] <sudo> might have to sudo
[10:15] <Pirate_Hunter> tank u Esign for that welcoming
[10:15] <KomiaPoika> ok i found: 915resolution
[10:15] <erlingre> misfit: gksudo
[10:15] <CheshireViking> sudo, If you're using Gnome - System -> Preferences -> Sessions -> Startup Programs -> Add!
[10:15] <Pirate_Hunter> the remark was unjust but tanx anyway
[10:15] <Yert> anyone got a clue on the SMB issue I posted?
[10:15] <CheshireViking> !rpm
[10:15] <ubotu> RPM is the RedHat Package Management system. Ubuntu uses !APT, not RPM. RPM packages are not supported (the package "alien" can allow installing them, but it's quite dangerous)
[10:15] <sudo> CheshireViking, thank you
[10:16] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. sudo it's a simple comand you can use to be root
[10:16] <BiTMAP_> when i log into a session my defualt resolution is incorrect, How do I go about changing this properly?
[10:16] <misfit> my impression is user rights/privileges aren't administered the same way they would be in windows, huh?
[10:16] <kanzie> Which plugin do you recommend for php-development in Eclipse?
[10:16] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. just type sudo before every command and you can run programs as root
[10:17] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. system ask you the password and after that the comand is runed
[10:17] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat by being on root still doesn't explain how I can make my Hd be seen
[10:17] <devnull> misfit, well thank g*, the sec model is better in Linux
[10:17] <misfit> yeah!
[10:17] <kanzie> Im trying to get my external monitor to work on my Thinkpad T60 with feasty install... can anyone help me?
[10:17] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. ... but but... go in places menu
[10:17] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: have you looked under /media?  ubuntu automounts a lot of block devices on boot up
[10:17] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. ...in that windwos you see the hd yes or not?
[10:18] <devnull> misfit, but if you REALLY want to be admin that bad:  System/Administration/Users and Groups... add yourself to the root group
[10:18] <misfit> I love the security on this system, I haven't seen a single virus or adware or anything.
[10:18] <Pirate_Hunter> Im already the admin I have admin access Im the only user in ubuntu
[10:18] <Pirate_Hunter> at least I hope im admin
[10:18] <reel2reel> lol
[10:18] <BiTMAP_> there is no such thing on a linux machine
[10:18] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter, nah, you are just a sudoer
[10:18] <reel2reel> virus's..  <funny>
[10:18] <misfit> thanks devnull
[10:18] <BiTMAP_> and you dont want to be running in "root" becuase thats how you break it :P
[10:19] <devnull> BiTMAP_, wise words!
[10:19] <BiTMAP_> dont kid yourself, there is virus equivalents for linux, but they cant get on due to the lack of root.
[10:19] <phylogenesis> no joke
[10:19] <EnsignRedshirt> Anyone know how to put the little Ubuntu icon and the Ubuntu/Gnome menus back on the left side of the top menu bar?  I changed to a smaller screen resolution, and now that I am back to 1600x1200, the menus are stuck in the middle of the menu bar.
[10:19] <Pirate_Hunter> damn so im not admin but a normal user "sudduoer"
[10:19] <Yert> there are 2 virii for linux, AFAIK - both require them to be run as root, though, so they're not that effective
[10:19] <BiTMAP_> its like turning UAC off on vista :P
[10:19] <reel2reel> Pirate_Hunter, had any luck in locating these pirates?
[10:19] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. ...no it's doesn t work in that way
[10:19] <misfit> so using "sudo" is supposed to make you think twice before installing something, or how does that make things more secure?
[10:20] <BiTMAP_> thats part of it misfit
[10:20] <phantom_> I have Ubuntu with kde installed. When starting it in Kde I dont have the option xgl and kde together. how do I get it???
[10:20] <Jowi> !sudo | misfit
[10:20] <ubotu> misfit: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[10:20] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. ...i am the only user in ubuntu but if i want run some comands i must type "sudo " before
[10:20] <phylogenesis> misfit:  it also requires you enter the root password
[10:20] <BiTMAP_> it also requires you to acknowledge a program or command, so that your authenticating it, you are also required to then type your "admin" password
[10:20] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. ...mm i think you must read something about linux try ithe forum. first step is always the most important
[10:20] <Pirate_Hunter> see well I'll try doing the mount command that bucat wrote with sudo
[10:21] <Yert> EnsignRedshirt: right click on them, then click "lock to panel".  Then right click again, and the option "move" should be available.  Click it, move them, click again to fix them where you want them.  Right click and lock again to make sure they stay put. :)
[10:21] <sudo> can someone help pls! I get the following error when trying: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx... E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[10:21] <A_b> Ensignredshirt, try right clicking on the icon then select move
[10:21] <devnull> misfit, it is more like you are not admin ALL the time, so programs you run do NOT execute as admin either, so they can't do most nasty things as they do in Windows... sudo is just a mechanism to allow you to run at root privs when you do need to
[10:21] <misfit> I understand that it gives you temporary root access, but in that case why would it be a bad idea to just log in as root by default?
[10:21] <kanzie> Can anyone help me getting my external monitor to work?
[10:21] <BiTMAP_> misfit: see what devnull said.
[10:21] <misfit> oh, I see
[10:22] <phantom_>  I have Ubuntu with kde installed. When starting it in Kde I dont have the option xgl and kde together. how do I get it???
[10:22] <reel2reel> because anything done as root is permanent
[10:22] <BiTMAP_> it could allow similar malicious code on a website to run on your machine, remove all the entries in some file such as xconf and leave you unable to use your system.
[10:22] <reel2reel> "official"
[10:22] <reel2reel> done
[10:22] <reel2reel> thats' it
[10:22] <EnsignRedshirt> Yert, A_b: Thanks--I had to uncheck the "Lock to panel" option, then I could move the menus.
[10:22] <BiTMAP_> that said
[10:22] <Yert> EnsignRedshirt: np. :)
[10:22] <liquiddoom> I have a setup with XP, OSX, an ubntu/various flavors of linux boxes. What would be best for file sharing? Samba?
[10:22] <misfit> oh crap, so if a foreign software wants to install itself or modify a system file, it needs the password.  Genius!
[10:22] <secret> Can someone help me with firfox?
[10:22] <Yert> smbd/service.c:set_current_service(150) chdir (/media/sdb1) failed
[10:22] <secret> it keeps crashing,
[10:23] <secret> firefox*
[10:23] <devnull> liquiddoom, pains me to say it, yes Samba, NFS is cool with *BSDs, but not very good from Windows
[10:23] <reel2reel> Aborted (core dumped) is pissing me off!!!!!!
[10:23] <secret> then I have too restore session, which is very annoying
[10:23] <BiTMAP_> how can i go and force ubuntu to use the correct screen resolution when i log in? it is at 1650 x 1080 when i enter the password, then it goes down to 1024x768. . . and i have to luanch the nvidia settings app to change it before i luanch anything else. otherwise it tends to crash
[10:23] <Yert> misfit: yeah, MS put something like it in Vista called User Account Control - you can disable it, of course, making it pointless.  They're only 15 years behind linux on that one. :)
 Yeah, the only thing I dislike is the strange number of errors and dropped packets
[10:23] <Pirate_Hunter> bucat would it be much easier for me to give one of my partition acess path: //mount
[10:24] <Pirate_Hunter> would that work or would it mess things up
[10:24] <BiTMAP_> Yert:  and people complain about it being annoying ;)
[10:24] <reel2reel> vista sucks..  tried it for a week..  they can keep that swagg
 Like playing music can be pretty jumpy over the wireless lan
[10:24] <devnull> BiTMAP_, did you try system/Preferences/Screen Resolution (ducks)
[10:24] <BiTMAP_> devnull:  ;) yes
[10:24] <Yert> BiTMAP_ : oh, sure.  disabled it the second day of using it. :)
[10:24] <misfit> very true, Yert!
[10:24] <misfit> this is all very true
[10:24] <sudo> can someone help pls! I get the following error when trying: sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx... E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)
[10:25] <BiTMAP_> devnull: It doesn't have the correct resolution listen, my guess is i may have to manually edit xconf but i dread having to use VI :|
[10:25] <devnull> BiTMAP_, editing xorg.conf to only allow your preferred res?
[10:25] <Jowi> sudo, it depends on what the text before the error say. pastebin the whole output
[10:25] <BiTMAP_> devnull: trying to avoid editing it :|
[10:25] <liquiddoom> BiTMAP_, use nano
[10:25] <Yert> liquiddoom: I have had great success with SMB in the past - I'm stumped on it at this moment, though, so I can't wholeheartedly recommend it. :/
[10:25] <Jowi> !pastebin | sudo
[10:25] <ubotu> sudo: 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)
[10:25] <BiTMAP_> liquiddoom: can i gksudo nano
[10:25] <Yert> sudo: the error code is rather important
[10:25] <devnull> BiTMAP_, I feel your pain, but you might end up having to
[10:25] <kanzie> I have problems getting my external monitor to work!
[10:26] <BiTMAP_> ! nano
[10:26] <ubotu> Text Editors: gedit (GNOME), Kate (KDE), mousepad (Xfce4) | Terminal-based editors: vi/vim, emacs, and nano (user-friendly). | HTML/CSS editors: !html | Programming: !code
[10:26] <misfit> I haven't 100% left windows behind, but linux is amazing.  I like the way you can install programs with a simple command instead of loading the website, downloading the .exe, etc...
 Use sudo nano or gksudo gedit
[10:26] <BiTMAP_> yah, when i gksudo gedit it gives me a strange error
[10:26] <devnull> BiTMAP_, if you do end up editing xorg.conf ... remember cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.bak.... or else ...
[10:26] <Yert> kanzie: I'd like to help, but you're getting into voodoo now
[10:26] <reel2reel> not that anyone is gonna help me get my azureus up and running or anything..  but this core dumping shit has to go
[10:26] <BiTMAP_> i will just sudo nano :D
[10:26] <BiTMAP_> devnull:  may i PM you about that actually?
[10:27] <devnull> BiTMAP_, sure
[10:27] <Yert> reel2reel: if it's dumping a core, it's probably a library issue
[10:27] <reel2reel> which lib you think I need?
[10:27] <reel2reel> never had this issue b4
[10:27] <reel2reel> it just always worked
[10:28] <Pirate_Hunter> Ok next question mounting is too hard for me, I actaully miss XP "lol - Is there any antivirus package for ubuntu?
[10:28] <Pirate_Hunter> i know its hard to get viruses here but they do exist
[10:28] <BiTMAP_> devnull: PM sent to you.
[10:28] <Yert> reel2reel: well, for that you'd have to get a little more information from the program.  I'm not going to go into debugging, but check for an error log
[10:28] <sudo> Jowi, http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24544/
[10:28] <liquiddoom> !virus | Pirate_Hunter
[10:28] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter: A/V software is available, however read this to understand why Linux does not have a virus problem: http://librenix.com/?inode=21
[10:28] <devnull> BiTMAP_, hmm, not getting it, let me try to just /query you
[10:28] <BiTMAP_> ok
[10:29] <BiTMAP_> devnull:  i can just put it here
[10:29] <reel2reel> think it will run into the same issues on a kde desktop?  been trying to make myself switch but hate kde to the extreme
[10:29] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: there is a commercial AV from McAfee, but seriously - there's 2 virii for Linux, and they're both proof of concepts - ie, lab experiements
[10:29] <raztakfe> Pirate_Hunter: Aegis is a good Virus Scanner
[10:29] <Pirate_Hunter> I understand that but like I said it does exist, even of it cna spread because of root level and password etc
[10:29] <reel2reel> can't seem to make myself switch over
[10:29] <phylogenesis> I added a second chip of RAM, of the exact same style to my laptop (supports up to 2GB, with 1GB for each of 2 slots), but Ubuntu doesn't seem to recognize it
[10:29] <liquiddoom> Pirate_Hunter: Also, you can use clamav
[10:29] <BiTMAP_> devnull: hey, yah ok so i have seen multiple things about that, I have seen some people post code that doesn't do a .bak. i'm not actually sure how to do a backup and etc.
[10:29] <Jowi> sudo, seems like the package is broken. try "sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx" then "sudo apt-get update" then try to re-install it again.
[10:29] <misfit> Somebody explain this to me... my pc ran XP only, so I used the Feisty cd to run ubuntu without installing it onto my hard drive.  The GUI worked, even with the desktop effects, but when I installed it completely, it couldn't find the nvidia drivers.  Then I had to do a LOT of reconfiguring to get it to run the desktop effects with a newly downloaded nvidia driver with 3d accelleration.  My question is... why did it work on the li
[10:29] <Yert> clamav is good, too
[10:29] <liquiddoom> Pirate_Hunter: Basically, you can spread them, but not get infected
[10:30] <sudo> ok
[10:30] <logan> I just installed ubuntu, how do I get the nvidia graphics drivers?
[10:30] <reel2reel> like clamidia to a man
[10:30] <reel2reel> he can carry the shit
[10:30] <Yert> misfit: the live CD is configured a little differently
[10:30] <logan> and 'beryl'
[10:30] <devnull> BiTMAP_, np, let's do this one step at a time
[10:30] <reel2reel> but only she will feel it
[10:30] <reel2reel> lmao
[10:30] <BiTMAP_> devnull: rgr i have terminal open
[10:30] <bucat__> Pirate_Hunter:. ...antivirus for ubuntu it's not needed
[10:30] <sudo> Jowi, Package nvidia-glx is not installed, so not removed
[10:30] <Yert> reel2reel: so charming of you - and yet, apt
[10:30] <devnull> BiTMAP_, sudo su
[10:30] <sudo> weird..
[10:30] <misfit> logan, sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx, try that
[10:30] <devnull> BiTMAP_, cd /etc/X11/
[10:31] <BiTMAP_> devnull i will hit enter after every command you give me?
[10:31] <sudo_apt-get> does ubuntu need clamAV?
[10:31] <sudo_apt-get> does ubuntu need clamAV?
[10:31] <devnull> BiTMAP_, correct
[10:31] <Jowi> sudo, ok, remove nvidia-glx-new first.
[10:31] <Yert> I've yet to install the ati driver, I guess I should
[10:31] <kanzie> Yert: I see, but Im ready, gloves on, xorg will crawl on its knees when we are done with her! :-)
[10:31] <devnull> BiTMAP_, cd /etc/X11/
[10:31] <BiTMAP_> devnull: im there
[10:31] <misfit> yert, how is that so?  can't the operating system be designed to treat all graphics cards the same way the live cd does?
[10:31] <devnull> BiTMAP_, cp xorg.conf xorg.conf.bak
[10:31] <liquiddoom> sudo_apt-get: Only if you're worried about XP machines on your network getting viruses
[10:31] <devnull> BiTMAP_, gedit xorg.conf
[10:31] <BiTMAP_> devnull: I also do have an xconf bak from another process, but it is working so i will overwrite the backup
[10:32] <liquiddoom> sudo_apt-get: (from files on your ubuntu machine)
[10:32] <sudo> weird..
[10:32] <sudo> Package nvidia-glx-new is not installed, so not removed
[10:32] <devnull> BiTMAP_, in that case copy to a diff name
[10:32] <devnull> BiTMAP_, cp xorg.conf xorg.foo
[10:32] <BiTMAP_> devnull: hey, yah ok so i have seen multiple things about that, I have seen some people post code that doesnt do a .bak
[10:32] <BiTMAP_>  im not actually sure how to do a backup and etc.
[10:32] <kanzie> Yert: My friend has the same machine and install (though running beryl aswell) and he only had to restart X, while that does not seem to do the trick for me. He has mirroring now which is better than me, since its black, but only half the distance!
[10:32] <BiTMAP_> devnull: woops, hold on
[10:32] <Yert> misfit: yes, but the livecd doesn't have a lot of software your full install has.  First, try simply running 'sudo apt-get nvidia-glx'
[10:33] <sudo_apt-get> how to install clamAV in ubuntu feisty fawn?
[10:33] <logan> Ok I did sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx, it did it's thing, what do I have to do to get my monitor out of a crap resolution, it didn't update the combo box of resolution options in Screen Resolution
[10:33] <kraut> moin
[10:33] <BiTMAP_> devnull: this is the error i get when i bring up gedit from sudo (gedit:2545): GnomeUI-WARNING **: While connecting to session manager:
[10:33] <BiTMAP_> Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed.
[10:33] <devnull> BiTMAP_, that is OK
[10:33] <devnull> BiTMAP_, does gedit come up with xorg.conf loaded?
[10:33] <misfit> yert, my drivers are working fine now ;) it was just something I always wondered how it worked.
[10:33] <reel2reel> anyone running utor in wine?
[10:33] <liquiddoom> BiTMAP_: Use gksudo
[10:33] <BiTMAP_> devnull: yes, and the section screen area has the correct thing in it
[10:33] <Yert> kanzie: I know that there is an option to enable a second monitor in the xorg.conf - you may have to add it, though.  I ran dual screens on an nvidia card a couple of years back
[10:34] <BiTMAP_> liquiddoom: same error when i use gksudo actually.
[10:34] <devnull> BiTMAP_, remove all resolutions that you don't want to have
[10:34] <reel2reel> 'cause I hate java clients anyway..  just wanna know how that is working out 4 you's
[10:34] <liquiddoom> BiTMAP_: Does it work, though?
[10:34] <kanzie> yert: great, any clues as to what that option is?
[10:34] <devnull> BiTMAP_, leave only the one you want
[10:34] <BiTMAP_> liquiddoom:  yes
[10:34] <BiTMAP_> devnull: under metamodes or under subsection-modes ?
[10:34] <reel2reel> uh oh, <bad grammer>
[10:34] <liquiddoom> BiTMAP_: I get the same error... but I wouldn't worry about it
[10:34] <misfit> has anyone experienced problems with Wine @ installing programs that require a serial or registration number?
[10:34] <Yert> kanzie: well, you have to define a second monitor, for one - you should have a section that begins with [monitor] 
[10:34] <Cindy> hi guys
[10:35] <devnull> BiTMAP_, for all your Screen / Modes sections
[10:35] <sudo_apt-get> hello cindy!
[10:35] <devnull> BiTMAP_, don't worry, you have a backup :)
[10:35] <logan> I did sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx, what else do I have to do for it to take effect?
[10:35] <Yert> kanzie: duplicate it, but change the h-refresh and v-refresh to match the second monitor
[10:35] <BiTMAP_> devnull: thats likely why, it didnt write it for the subsection modes, i will do this now and yah, yay for bak
[10:35] <devnull> BiTMAP_, then add these two lines to your screen section
[10:35] <Yert> misfit: Nope.
[10:35] <devnull> BiTMAP_,     Option         "UseEDID" "FALSE"
[10:35] <Cindy> Can u please post pictures of your UBUNTU desktop?
[10:35] <devnull> BiTMAP_,     Option         "UseEDIDFreqs" "FALSE"
[10:35] <misfit> logan, restart the system
[10:35] <logan> ij
[10:36] <logan> ok*
[10:36] <Pirate_Hunter> Can someone tell me how to install downloaded apps
[10:36] <devnull> BiTMAP_, what this means is: "don't auto detect, I am telling you what to use"
[10:36] <misfit> If you see an nvidia splashcreen during boot-up, you're good!
[10:36] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: use Synaptic to download and install them
[10:36] <Pirate_Hunter> like rpm - what do i do to run rpm apps
[10:36] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: if they're RPMs, try finding the package in the ubuntu repository that matches

[10:37] <devnull> BiTMAP_, now get paper and pen
[10:37] <oi> hudashuiasdhuasiahsddas
[10:37] <oi> quero
[10:37] <Amon-san> thanks
[10:37] <BiTMAP_> devnull: rgr one moment
[10:38] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: if it's not int he repository, then you'll have to get alien
[10:38] <misfit> yert, I've tried installing photoshop and a screenwriting program, both require a key, but they spit it back saying it's incorrect.  Is it trying to do something with c++ in the background, maybe?
[10:38] <Pirate_Hunter> I dont know were the repository is, so I cnat run it
[10:38] <BiTMAP_> devnull: paper and pen obtained, and file saved, are you gonna get me to reboot xserv, and have commands just incase it decides not to work?
[10:38] <devnull> BiTMAP_, if you fail to make it to the GUI you will need to restore your backup, this is how:
[10:38] <Pirate_Hunter> im trying to install Aegis
[10:38] <devnull> BiTMAP_, you are correct
[10:39] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: repository - ie, storage database.  Not something you have to worry about - the ubuntu repository has thousands of software packages in it.  Go to System -> Administration -> Synaptic Package Manager
[10:39] <devnull> BiTMAP_, if this doesn't work, you will need to login from the console (you will see the prompt)
[10:39] <BiTMAP_> devnull: believe it or not, I do windows software support ;) so thanks man, I feel noobish and appreciate your help.
[10:39] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: there's a search button there
[10:39] <devnull> BiTMAP_, np, once at the prompt, become admin:  sudo su
[10:39] <BiTMAP_> devnull: correct, and basicly  sudo the CP filename from .bak to no .bak?
[10:39] <KomiaPoika> hi
[10:39] <KomiaPoika> when trying to install kernel-headers, i get:
[10:40] <KomiaPoika> Package kernel-headers is not available, but is referred to by another package.
[10:40] <devnull> BiTMAP_, restore file:  cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.foo /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[10:40] <Yert> misfit: PS CS3 requires a couple of windows services in the background in order for it to run correctly - the FlexNet licensing service, for one
[10:40] <KomiaPoika> why?
[10:40] <l33t_acid> oi
[10:40] <devnull> BiTMAP_, you are correct, then reboot:  shutdown -r now
[10:40] <misfit> after a while, the flash videos play real choppy and at times I have to close the browser.  any suggestions?
[10:40] <Yert> misfit: you may run into a brick wall trying to get any recent version of Photoshop working
[10:40] <Jowi> sudo, let's try something. "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-new && sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia-glx-new" if that works continue with "sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx"
[10:40] <BiTMAP_> devnull what dose CP stand for, and what is the command to create a folder? just for future refrence?
[10:40] <misfit> yert, it's an older version, 7.0
[10:40] <Pirate_Hunter> Yert found it do i mark all the options or just some
[10:41] <devnull> BiTMAP_, cp is shorthand for copy
[10:41] <devnull> BiTMAP_, to create a folder:  mkdir
[10:41] <OuZo> !backup
[10:41] <ubotu> There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[10:41] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: search for what you're wanting to install - if you try to install them all, you'll be downloading packages until Christmas :)
[10:41] <OuZo> !sbackup
[10:41] <ubotu> sbackup is a tool to create complete and/or incremental backups (which can be scheduled to be automatic, and can be done over a network). It is available in !Universe
[10:41] <killjoy> anyone have any ideas on why the font/text in firefox would look so bad for me?  I just installed Feisty for the first time, and the text seems pretty small and hammered.  Almost like parts of the glyphs are dropping out.
[10:41] <devnull> BiTMAP_, now let's close your apps and kill X with CTL-ALT-BACKSPACE, I hope to see you back
[10:41] <OuZo> !cloning
[10:41] <ubotu> To replicate your packages selection on another machine (or restore it if re-installing), you can type  dpkg --get-selections > ~/my-packages , move the file "my-packages" to the other machine, and there type  sudo dpkg --set-selections < my-packages && apt-get dselect-upgrade  - See also !automate
[10:42] <Yert> misfit: no clue then, man.  Check the Wine forums, I'd think - also might get some tips from the Cedega forums
[10:42] <Pirate_Hunter> ive serached for aegis but theres like 5 options for it and I only chose two - what imwondering is that enough
[10:42] <misfit> no problem yert, I appreciate the help.
[10:42] <BiTMAP_> devnull: oh you will, this wouldnt be the first time I blew it up ;) i should be able to get back, and I have faith in my text editing. which im gonna look over again
[10:42] <Pirate_Hunter> theres like 3 different user interfaces available
[10:42] <Frogzoo> killjoy: lappie? enable sub pixel rendering
[10:42] <BiTMAP_> devnull: see you on the flipside
[10:42] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: mark the one you want, it'll mark all the dependencies, and if it needs anything else, it'll download it
[10:42] <devnull> BiTMAP_, good luck
[10:43] <misfit> Hey, you guys are a great help!  Thanks, and take it easy!
[10:43] <pikeshouse88> ahh linux, so many problems, so glad i have os
[10:43] <misfit> Bye
[10:43] <Pirate_Hunter> yert thats what i wanted to heer finally getting somewhere with ubuntu
[10:43] <pikeshouse88> x
[10:43] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: you bet
[10:43] <devnull> misfit, dude (tte?) welcome to linux, remember, it is freedom that matters
[10:43] <Yert> ok, one more time - anyone know how to fix this SMBd issue?
[10:43] <Yert> smbd/service.c:set_current_service(150) chdir (/media/sdb1) failed
[10:43] <Pirate_Hunter> Yert how long does it take for a new user to get good at using ubuntu and i eman at using the terminal as well
[10:44] <Frogzoo> !docs > Pirate_Hunter
[10:44] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: that's a loaded question if I've ever heard one :)
[10:44] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: I converted a friend from Windows to Ubuntu in less than a year - within 2 years, he'd completely quit using Windows altogether
[10:44] <Frogzoo> Pirate_Hunter: I'd say a couple of years to be really comfortable
[10:44] <Pirate_Hunter> lol i understand i guess a lot of reading for me
[10:44] <BiTMAP_> devnull: thank you sir
[10:44] <killjoy> Frogzoo: I'm on an LCD and I tried the "Subpixel smoothing" in the font preferences.. it didn't seem to improve anything
[10:44] <devnull> Pirate_Hunter,  Yert, we need something like BSD's Handbook
[10:45] <devnull> BiTMAP_, back so soon?
[10:45] <BiTMAP_> devnull: one thing to add in the future, it didnt work at first, but then i went to the ubuntu resolution manager, and changed it there, restarted gui again and it worked properly.
[10:45] <Frogzoo> killjoy: try the other subpixel orders - your lcd might be unusual
[10:45] <Yert> devnull: http://www.ubuntuguide.org
[10:45] <Yert> It kicks the llama's ass.
[10:45] <devnull> BiTMAP_, yay, that is great to hear
[10:45] <Yert> h, that reminds me, need to install xmms
[10:45] <Frogzoo> Yert: audacious is better
[10:45] <devnull> Yert,  I know, I know, just not same quality .... yet :)
[10:46] <Yert> Frogzoo: I'm old school
[10:46] <BiTMAP_> devnull:  now to get beryl starting onstartup. i have the command written down and or bookmarked somewhere, but imma try that add to startup option first
[10:46] <gp|work> I till keep Windows around for games. :/
[10:46] <Yert> I remember when it was FreeAmp
[10:46] <imbrandon> hrm how can i redirect cron output ( from a job ) to syslog
[10:46] <Pirate_Hunter> Well ppl i am gone for now, ive had it for today, will be seeing you guys or girls (females) doon
[10:46] <Hultiz> i have a windows program that reads what i copy and i run it with wine, but it can't seem to "connect" to the linux clipboard. how can i do it?
[10:46] <devnull> BiTMAP_, beryl is sooo purdy
[10:46] <Frogzoo> Yert: but you haven't tried audacious
[10:46] <gp|work> Wine does seem to be improving rather well, though.
[10:46] <Pirate_Hunter> Bye
[10:46] <Yert> imbrandon 'command-name > &1'
[10:46] <phylogenesis> California has great wine.
[10:46] <Frogzoo> gp|work: couldn't agree more, wine is really coming along
[10:46] <Yert> Frogzoo: true.  I'll give it a shot, then
[10:46] <BiTMAP_> devnull: yes it is :D i have tweeked the theme im useing too, OSX plus, now its a mix of vista, mac, and ubuntu goodness :D i may tweek furter later on
[10:46] <l33t_acid> oi
[10:47] <Frogzoo> !audacious > Yert
[10:47] <BiTMAP_> devnull: cant live without my wobbly windows now
[10:47] <imbrandon> Yert, that wont syslog it without mailing it to root
[10:47] <Yert> imbrandon: you sure?  you try &2 ?
[10:47] <devnull> BiTMAP_, I am just addicted to expose, the cube, task switcher....
[10:47] <Yert> imbrandon: I know it's one of those things....
[10:47] <BiTMAP_> devnull: expose?
[10:48] <Bokeh> expose is using hotkeys to bring applications to the front of your screen, move them all away to clear your desktop, highlight all windows of a certain application, etc.
[10:48] <Yert> Frogzoo: apt-getting as we speak
[10:48] <Bokeh> http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/expose/
[10:48] <devnull> BiTMAP_, like this:  http://www.beryl-project.org/features.php
[10:48] <Yert> Frogzoo: does it do viz?
[10:49] <BiTMAP_> devnull: oh yah, i dunno what i think about that yet.
[10:49] <devnull> Bokeh, thanks, yes apple was first :)
[10:49] <Frogzoo> Yert: viz? don't know it
[10:49] <Bokeh> bah, that was just the first link i got when googling :P
[10:49] <Yert> Frogzoo: viz = visualizations
[10:49] <Yert> Frogzoo: eye candy :)
[10:49] <Frogzoo> oic

[10:50] <BiTMAP_> devnull: do you have beryl starting with startup?
[10:50] <devnull> BiTMAP_,  yes, the ubuntu guide for that is dead on
[10:50] <BiTMAP_> devnull: i think i found it thanks
[10:51] <devnull> BiTMAP_, good luck, enjoy your linux box, I am off to bed
[10:51] <BiTMAP_> devnull: have a gooder cya later
[10:51] <BiTMAP_> devnull: maybe in good time i will start to be able to teach others *wewt*

[11:01] <BiTMAP_> my logitech webcam is zooming in too much while being used in a flash based application.
[11:01] <kanzie> Yert: yeah, but Im running ATI-based graphics card, any ideas then?
[11:02] <int> hello! i wonder if someone tried to convert plain root -> root on raid ? now i have degradated /dev/md2 with copy of my root. i'm able to boot from it, but it doesn't remount to rw during boot. after boot i can login to system and cat /proc/mounts says that i have two mounted "/" - rootfs (with type rootfs, rw) and my /dev/md2 (xfs, ro). mount -o remount,rw / says about bad parameters. smth like device not mounted or wrong parameters
[11:02] <int> any ideas?
[11:03] <int> i use latest stable ubuntu if this important
[11:03] <Yert> kanzie: bugger.  lemme look around a sec
[11:03] <kanzie> Yert: Thanks!
[11:04] <Yert> int: try sticking a umount / in your init?
[11:04] <Yert> before mounting the raid /
[11:04] <int> Yert, in initramfs?
[11:05] <int> i'm not sure if this possible? to unmount root? i thoght it should be replaced with real root somehow
[11:05] <int> at the end of initramfs my real root mounted under /root
[11:05] <Yert> int: I was kinda throwing a hunch out there
[11:06] <Yert> http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Monitors
[11:06] <kanzie> Yert: Im trying to reinstall the graphics-drivers and installing beryl while Im at it, should I go with the open-source or closed-source drivers?
[11:06] <Yert> kanzie: hey, go to
[11:06] <Yert> gah
[11:07] <Yert> ok, ignore anything that document says about installing new drivers and scroll down to the section about editing XF86Config
[11:07] <Yert> kanzie: get all that?
[11:07] <kanzie> yep
[11:08] <Yert> int: if it's possible, it'll be while it's running init
[11:08] <olkala1> Has './ies4linux --hack-ie7-proxy-settings' worked for anyone? It has refused to work for me.
[11:09] <forever> hi
[11:10] <forever> anybody there?
[11:10] <mrynit> hello
[11:10] <Yert> several here
[11:11] <Jowi> forever, 1070 of us
[11:12] <fabio__|> i'm trying to set the "mailto" parameters of sudoers to get log emails , but how can I set which SMTP is used to send emails? thanks
[11:12] <ziroday> this may sound like a really stupid question but how do i find out my remote computer ip to connect to it when im away from the remote computer?
[11:12] <ziroday> if that makes sense
[11:13] <jhaig> ziroday: nslookup <hostname>
[11:13] <Yert> ziroday: you go back to the remote computer and find out the ip
[11:13] <Yert> :)
[11:13] <jhaig> ziroday: I assume you know the hostname.
[11:13] <ziroday> jhaig: but im not on my network
[11:13] <Yert> if it's on a home DSL type connection, you can use a service like dyndns.org to bind it to a hostname so you don't have to learn a new IP when it changes every night
[11:14] <KomiaPoika> what package do i need to install to let firefox access web video streams?
[11:14] <jhaig> ziroday: OK, what information do you know?
[11:14] <ziroday> jhaig: my hostname is ambassador
[11:14] <nivekz> hello. I heard that 7.04's installation can put grub not into MBR. Does that mean I do not have to download alternate CD this time?
[11:14] <ziroday> jhaig: and thats it, but i can find out more if needed?
[11:14] <jhaig> ziroday: If the network is behind a router you will need to set up the router to forward the port.
[11:14] <ziroday> jhaig: so i have to use ssh?
[11:15] <jhaig> ziroday: Yes (probably)
[11:15] <Yert> http://ubuntuguide.org/wiki/Ubuntu:Feisty#How_to_install_multimedia_plug-ins_for_Firefox
[11:15] <ziroday> jhaig: confusing lol
[11:16] <Yert> KomiaPoika: check the URL I just posted
[11:16] <azerrox> hi there
[11:16] <ziroday> jhaig: do you have any wiki's or something?
[11:16] <jhaig> ziroday: Yes, you will need to use ssh to log in remotely.  I said probably, because you might be wanting to connect to some other server, such as a web server or an ftp server.
[11:16] <dqdev> hello all
[11:16] <KomiaPoika> thanks
[11:16] <ziroday> jhaig: how about a webserver with torrentflux on it
[11:17] <ziroday> jhaig: how would i connect to that
[11:17] <dqdev> do you know if it is possible to have video-conference with skype under ubuntu 7.04?
[11:17] <kanzie> should I install the open-source or closed source-drivers for ati?
[11:17] <ziroday> dqdev: skype dosnt support video conferencing for linux
[11:17] <dqdev> ziroday: thanks
[11:18] <Yert> kanzie: I'd go with closed, as they're more mature
[11:18] <ziroday> kanzie: depends, the closed drivers are usually better but the other ones a open source
[11:18] <ziroday> kanzie: also depends which ati card
[11:18] <Yert> kanzie: but if you want a totally open (free as in speech) system, then obviously, closed is bad :)
[11:18] <forever> hi, im a bigginer and im too interesting in learning programming and i need help to get tutorials and to know what s the better way to begin
[11:18] <jhaig> ziroday: What is your setup?  Is it a network behind a router?
[11:18] <newb_prob> I just installed compiz from source. How do I add it to my list of session options when I first log into ubuntu?
[11:19] <ziroday> forever: a good programming language is bash for starters
[11:19] <ziroday> jhaig: yeah i have DSL then  a router then my comp
[11:20] <forever> hi, u mean "bash"
[11:20] <jhaig> OK, on my router there is an option to set up a "virtual server", which enables me to forward specific ports to machines on the local network.  Once you have done this you should be able to connect to that computer via your public facing ip address.
[11:20] <john_watson> Which software can play ape format music?
[11:20] <ziroday> forever: yeah
[11:21] <forever> ziroday: aand how to have the instruction to use it?
[11:21] <ziroday> jhaig: and the ip would look something like this yeah?, 218.254.11.258:698
[11:21] <jhaig> ziroday: If you don't have a fixed ip address there are ways of getting your address fixed to a hostname each time you connect, but I don't know too much about that.
[11:21] <forever> do u think i can learn it quickly?
[11:21] <ziroday> forever: man <command> is a good starting point
[11:21] <jhaig> ziroday: 218.254.11.258 is the ip address and 698 is the port.
[11:21] <sahil> how can i do a print preview in Inkscape?
[11:21] <ziroday> jhaig: thanks ill have a look
[11:22] <ziroday> forever: its the language of the terminals so yeah you should
[11:22] <Jowi> fabio__|, if you use postfix the smtp option is in /etc/postfix/main.cf. option should look like this:  relayhost = smtp.whatever.com
[11:22] <forever> hahah
[11:22] <ziroday> forever: or you can try python
[11:22] <forever> ziroday: ok, but i need information first, books and exercices
[11:23] <jhaig> ziroday: So, for example, I have port 22 (ssh) set to forward to machine 10.0.0.254 on my local network.
[11:23] <forever> ziroday: can i find all this programs in repository?
[11:23] <jos2> anyone know how to get the nvidia drivers to work?
[11:23] <ziroday> forever: not sure about python but you already have bash

[11:24] <Yert> :)
[11:24] <ziroday> jos2: what card?
[11:24] <sudo> Yert yeap =)
[11:24] <jos2> i found a linux driver from nvidia. i've got the 7600gs

[11:24] <Jowi> sudo, did you try what I said last time?
[11:24] <sudo> I just fixed the issue with me having to reinstall the nvidia driver everytime i reboot

[11:25] <Jowi> sudo, cool.
[11:25] <Jowi> !beryl
[11:25] <ubotu> Beryl is a window manager that takes advantage of an OpenGL accelerated X environment. See http://forum.beryl-project.org/ - Help in #ubuntu-effects
[11:25] <ziroday> forever: c++ is really really hard for begineers and takes ages to learn. Gnome is made on c

[11:34] <tlogonet> f67r
[11:34] <Jowi> fabio__|, this link is really good: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PostfixBasicSetupHowto (preferably test by sending an outbound mail such as to a yahoo account or similar)

[11:41] <wehttamb_> i cant find why it wont work
[11:41] <wehttamb_> k
[11:41] <lazaruslupine> what did you reconfigure?
[11:41] <phantom_> How doo i set in kde prog to run at login???
[11:42] <Jowi> wehttamb_, if you reconfigured x then maybe you don't have a DRI and Extensions (composite) option in there anymore
[11:42] <lazaruslupine> put a link in the ~/.kde/Autostart Folder phantom_
[11:42] <wehttamb_> how do i fix that
[11:42] <wehttamb_> i did a dpkg-reconfigure
[11:43] <lazaruslupine> check you /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
[11:43] <lazaruslupine> there might be an old one in there you can compare it to
 isen't there a prog like session in gnome ?
[11:44] <sudo> why is it everytime i reboot my /etc/motd changes back to default?
[11:44] <crdlb> wehttamb_, that command I gave you will fix it
[11:44] <lazaruslupine> I thought you said kde phantom_ . Are you using Gnome?
[11:44] <wehttamb_> ok
[11:44] <wehttamb_> i just ran that
[11:44] <crdlb> wehttamb_, restart X after running it
[11:44] <wehttamb_> do i restart x now?
[11:44] <wehttamb_> ok
[11:44] <Jowi> wehttamb_, "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" and add this to the end of the file if it is not already there: Section "Extensions" (new line) Option "Composite" "Enable" (new line) EndSection (new line)
[11:44] <phantom_> like session in kde
[11:44] <c9s> sudo:  you can use sudo vim /et/motd
[11:44] <c9s> sudo: $ vim /etc/motd
[11:44] <c9s> sudo: $ sudo vim /etc/motd
 I use kde . Where is ~/.kde/Autostar located?
[11:45] <lazaruslupine> its in your home folder
[11:45] <sudo> c9s what does this do?
[11:46] <lazaruslupine> phantom_ it would be /home/yourname/.kde/Autostart
[11:46] <sudo> how can i change the startup sound?
[11:47] <wehttamb> its working again now
[11:47] <wehttamb> thanks
 How doo I sset in kde to see hiden files?
[11:47] <zzzr> does there plugin for xchat that when i listen to sound in amarok or something it will write to channel "i listen to xxx"?

[11:48] <schizmatik_cz> hi
[11:48] <schizmatik_cz> got a question about formatting
[11:49] <schizmatik_cz> actually trying to format partition for win
[11:49] <fabio__|> yes!!! the mailto command of sudo now works.. now i have just to "pack" more messages in a single email..
[11:50] <Jowi> fabio__|, that was quick :)
[11:50] <wehttamb> what was the comand that i used to fix x?
[11:50] <tuskernini> IF i chown a external usb drive, do i chown the /dev/sda1 or the /media/disk?
[11:50] <wehttamb> this isnt the first time it has happened
[11:50] <wehttamb> last time i reinstalled ubuntu
[11:51] <tuskernini> wehttamb: something like reconfigure-xorg.. i will google it
[11:51] <crdlb> wehttamb, the one I gave you?
 thancks
[11:51] <wehttamb> yea that one
[11:51] <crdlb> sudo nvidia-xconfig --add-argb-glx-visuals -d 24
[11:51] <lazaruslupine> no prob phantom_
[11:51] <wehttamb> thanks
[11:51] <wehttamb> :)
[11:51] <tuskernini> wehttamb:  sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
[11:52] <int> Yert, sorry we have connectivity problems b/c of DDoS. But i fixed my problem with root on raid. the problem was caused by wrong mount args in fstab for my root. (there was errors=remount-ro parameter there, from old root (it was ext3)). and new root fs (xfs) doesn't know anything about this parameter.
[11:52] <sudo> crdlb thank you... you guys fixed it!
[11:52] <sudo> how can i change the startup sound?
[11:52] <Yert> int: cool, glad you found it :)
[11:53] <A_I_> does someone know where are the source files of "bootlogo" used in the ubuntu installer ?
[11:54] <ManaPirat> hi :o)
[11:54] <lazaruslupine> A_I_ just look up the package in synaptic and look under "installed files"
[11:54] <ManaPirat> does somebody know about a non-bsd live cd for anonymous surfing (tor, privoxy, nicely configured for noob endusers)
[11:54] <ManaPirat> ?
[11:55] <lazaruslupine> backtrack?
[11:56] <foug> invalid mount option when attemption to mount the volume 'UDF Volume" anyone know what this error means?
[11:56] <A_I_> lazaruslupine under which package?
[11:56] <fabio__|> jowi: thanks for help
[11:56] <Jowi> no probs fabio__|
[11:56] <ManaPirat> hm lazarus is that preconfigured for secure surfing?
[11:56] <ManaPirat> it is more for auditing and cracking *g*
[11:56] <ManaPirat> ehm sorry "hacking"
[11:56] <lazaruslupine> A_I_ try searching for usplash
[11:57] <lazaruslupine> ManaPirat its for "penetration testing" but tor is there, not sure about privoxy but I assume it would be
[11:57] <Jowi> !usplash | A_I_
[11:57] <ubotu> A_I_: To select the usplash artwork you want, use "sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so && sudo update-initramfs -u" - See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/USplashCustomizationHowto for adding your custom artwork
[11:57] <bullgard4> Resuming from Hibernate /var/log/syslog "pnp: Failed to activate device 00:06." How can I determine what is device 00:06?
[11:57] <ManaPirat> hm too difficult for the noobs that want it ....
[11:58] <ManaPirat> but thank you though. I will maybe try the BSD based :-/
[11:58] <lazaruslupine> slax might help ManaPirat. You can customize it to your liking
[11:58] <stefg> bullgard4: lpci | grep 00:06
[11:58] <stefg> bullgard44: lspci | grep 00:06
[11:59] <A_I_> lazaruslupine I'm looking for the one used at CDROM boot time (at the begining of installation)
[11:59] <A_I_> are you sure it's usplash ?
[11:59] <ManaPirat> okay, got one: http://www.rocklinux.org/wiki/ROCKate
[12:00] <stefg> A_I_: that's a isolinux bootsplash... different bootloader for the CD, so you'd have to convert that
[12:00] <bullgard4> stefg: lspci | grep 00:06 produces no output.
[12:01] <stefg> bullgard4: hmmm... then just inspect the lspci output manually.. maybe the syntax differs a bit
[12:01] <A_I_> stefg how can I convert/create new bootsplashes for installation CD ?
[12:01] <bullgard4> stefg: You may know that lspci has a different format to designate pci devices.
[12:01] <spheard> how do I grep for a text string recursivly, I tried "grep -r *string* /", but I got nothing
[12:01] <A_I_> stefg I've already changed splash.pcx
[12:02] <stefg> A_I_: sorry, don't know
[12:02] <A_I_> but the list of available installation possibilities is to small
[12:02] <frandavid100> hey guys, how can I force instalation of a package?
[12:02] <A_I_> so I want to change it's size
[12:02] <A_I_> and grep guides me to bootlogo :)
[12:04] <Frogzoo> frandavid100: best not to
[12:05] <brandon_> I'm trying to find a hoary packages mirror?
[12:05] <brandon_> I'm getting 404 not founds when I'm trying to update packages, and also when doing apt-get update
[12:05] <brandon_> and my wife is driving me crazy and I can't take care of her properly and we have a lot of problems :~(
[12:05] <lazaruslupine> any reason you need to use hoary?
[12:06] <brandon_> laz, this system is still in hoary.. haven't found the time/means to back up my stuff and update it.
[12:06] <Jowi> !mirrors | brandon
[12:06] <ubotu> brandon: Ubuntu installation CDs can be downloaded from http://releases.ubuntu.com - Mirrors can be found at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/Archive
[12:07] <bullgard4> stefg: lspci designates PCI devices in such a format that I cannot recognize them as in syslog.
[12:07] <lazaruslupine> brandon_ ,  with dapper and later you can just change your mirrors to the latest release and upgrade, doubt that would work in hoary though
[12:08] <Jowi> brandon_, I can only find dapper mirrors though
[12:08] <brandon_> I replaced the mirror with a couple others (only 2 though) .. I need to find a hoary one
[12:08] <brandon_> what's the dir structure like?  perhaps I can quickly scan through them to see if they carry hoary packages
[12:08] <Jowi> http://mirrors.acm.jhu.edu/ubumirror.html
[12:09] <Frogzoo> brandon_: you really need a separate /home, then upgrading is much easier
[12:09] <brandon_> frogzoo.. I also install various binaries, configure my apache, etc..
[12:09] <lazaruslupine> http://cache.torrentspy.com/download.asp?id=488627 brandon_
[12:09] <lazaruslupine> whoops
[12:09] <lazaruslupine> lol wrong
[12:09] <lazaruslupine> one sec
[12:09] <stefg> bullgard4: hmmm... so my lspci output is nicely formatted with numbers like 00:006.0 for my soundcard, so I'd assume when resume complains that device 00:06 cant wake up it's the sound card
[12:10] <Frogzoo> brandon_: well you need to backup your /etc before upgrading
[12:10] <stefg> just for example
[12:10] <Frogzoo> brandon_: also /var on a separate partition is a good thing too
[12:10] <brandon_> In all my years I've never organized my system enough -- I do keep things in a couple locations, suitable for backing up, but then I have added binaries and when I update I have to get those all configured again .. not to mention utilities which I'll forget the names of later.. I dunno..
[12:11] <Frogzoo> brandon_: I won't pretend upgrading is no work at all - it usually takes me about 8 hours to get everything back the way I like it
[12:13] <brandon_> that's not a bad amount of time
[12:13] <brandon_> I recently found my svn repository's database for one of my projects is corrupt
[12:13] <brandon_> that sucks
[12:13] <phreakzter> Hey folks. I'm trying to install the artwiz-fonts. When it's installed i get: warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc .. so i tried making that directory and reinstalling the package. But each time i reinstall the package i still get that msg.. and the directory misc is somehow removed each time..
[12:13] <lazaruslupine> wow haory mirrors are few and far between, kind of like finding debian potato mirrors lol
[12:13] <A[D] minS> !BCM44xx
[12:13] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about bcm44xx - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[12:14] <brandon_> wow.. maybe I'd better update
[12:14] <brandon_> okay.. well for now I won't install any packages
[12:14] <nahema> hi enybudy know how to install a usb modem huawei smartax mt882?
[12:14] <roland_> can i use my ubuntu laptop with  its lcd as a toucscreen ?
[12:14] <fabio__|> can u suggest me a name of a package to impose "strong" passwords to users?
[12:14] <brandon_> I don't want to update until after Saturday
[12:14] <brandon_> roland, lol
[12:15] <lazaruslupine> brandon_, if nothing else for the security and stability updates
[12:15] <brandon_> is it a touchscreen lcd?
[12:15] <roland_> brandon_ no
[12:15] <lazaruslupine> dapper would be good if you want long term support
[12:15] <roland_> i though that the display would feel my fingers moving though
[12:15] <Jowi> roland_, a touchscreen is actually a device you put on top of a normal screen.
[12:15] <brandon_> I guess I have to go as my wife needs me.
[12:16] <voltagex> whee, netsplit
[12:16] <cyberpunk69> I have just moved to Ubuntu and I am very happy with what I see I seem to have a good config and want to save an image of the installation . Does anybody know if this is possible and how do I go about it
[12:16] <brandon_> She's not very considerate about it?
[12:17] <Frogzoo> cyberpunk69: dpkg --get-selections
[12:17] <brandon_> okay.. well time to go for now.. I gotsta..
[12:17] <brandon_> I appreciate the upgrading encouragement :)
[12:17] <Frogzoo> cyberpunk69: also, backup /home
[12:17] <Frogzoo> cypher1: and /etc & /var if needed
[12:17] <brandon_> wish i could hang around and help some passersby, etc.
[12:18] <rem> cyber .. partimage ..., ghost ......
[12:18] <fabio__|> cyberpunk69: search on google "ghost 4 linux", if i remember well, the keyword to search is g4l
[12:18] <sudo> why is it everytime i sudo pico /etc/motd and change the message.. once i reboot it gos back to the default msg?????
[12:19] <cyberpunk69> cheers Fabio
[12:19] <c9s> sudo: did you save file ?   :)
[12:20] <sudo> yes :(
[12:20] <cyberpunk69> and Frogzoo
[12:20] <cyberpunk69> :-)
[12:20] <sudo> c9s, i reboot then it's back to the default
[12:20] <ewanm89> h
[12:20] <fabio__|> cyberpunk69: http://sourceforge.net/projects/g4l
[12:21] <Yert> sudo: something in your init scripts is writing /etc/motd from somewhere elae - grep -r /etc/* "motd"
[12:21] <c9s> sudo: strange...
[12:21] <tim167_> whats the command to let a script wait for some seconds before executing the next command? when i try 'wait 5' i get:bash: wait: pid 10 is not a child of this shell, thanks
[12:21] <Yert> sleep 5
[12:21] <tim167_> Yert ah sleep; i should have known :)
[12:22] <nahema> i need some help whit an instalation can enybudy help me?
[12:22] <Yert> tim__b: something I should be doing :)
[12:22] <Yert> er tim167_
[12:22] <tim167_> hehe
[12:23] <Yert> bah, not having the ALT keys in gtkBitchX is really starting to piss me off
[12:23] <nahema> i have a usb modem huawei smartax mt882 and i can't install it
[12:23] <nahema> what can i doo?
[12:23] <sudo> Yert, I got a big reply back!
[12:24] <Jowi> sudo, "cat /etc/init.d/* | grep motd" will limit your searching quite a bit
[12:24] <Yert> sudo: I'm sure :)
[12:24] <Yert> Jowi's got the right idea
[12:25] <sudo> kev@GotWork:~$ sudo cat /etc/init.d/* | grep motd
[12:25] <sudo>         # Update motd
[12:25] <sudo>         uname -snrvm > /var/run/motd
[12:25] <sudo>         [ -f /etc/motd.tail ]  && cat /etc/motd.tail >> /var/run/motd
[12:26] <Yert> nahema: is it a DSL modem or a regular dialup modem?
[12:26] <nahema> dsl modem
[12:26] <VSpike> Can anyone recommend a SOCKS 5 server for ubuntu?
[12:27] <Yert> https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsbAdslModem
[12:27] <Yert> nahema: that's a little out of date, but should point you in the right direction
[12:27] <nahema> yert: thanks
[12:28] <Yert> nahema: yep
[12:28] <nahema> yert: this is mi last hope
[12:28] <nahema> because i try almost all :)
[12:28] <Jowi> sudo, as you can see /etc/motd is composed of some info of the system combined with /etc/motd.tail. so edit /etc/motd.tail instead of /etc/motd
[12:28] <Yert> sudo: ^ what he said ^
[12:29] <Yert> Jowi: if you're not a he, no offense intended
[12:29] <nahema> yert: i install virtual box too and after i install it on  windows but still don't work because usb don't have permision
[12:29] <sudo> Jowi thank you.. as you were saying that i was editing
[12:29] <sudo> =)
[12:29] <Jowi> Yert, I will let you know when I/if I decide to change my looks :)
[12:30] <Yert> Jowi: I expect nothing less :)
[12:30] <nox-Hand> Hey
[12:30] <nox-Hand> Can one have a user with no password?
[12:30] <Yert> nahema: just stick with it, I've spent weeks getting some devices working.  Some manufacturers still aren't with the program yet when it comes to linux, unfortunately
[12:30] <nox-Hand> So typing username alone (or clicking face in a face browser) will log it in?
[12:31] <Yert> nox-Hand: you can set a default user that logs in automatically
[12:32] <Hultiz> i have a windows program that reads what i copy and i run it with wine, but it can't seem to "connect" to the linux clipboard. how can i do it?
[12:32] <Yert> nox-Hand: it's under System -> Administration -> Login Window Preferences, on the Security tab
[12:32] <nox-Hand> Yert: an option, yeah :)
[12:32] <nox-Hand> Thanks Yert
[12:32] <Yert> yep
[12:33] <Yert> in theory, you can edit the /etc/passwd file so the user has no password - then they just hit enter for the password
[12:33] <Yert> but don't go in there and blindly edit, make sure you're just removing the password for a particular user
[12:33] <Yert> I think it's in /etc/shadow now, I'd have to dig around
[12:34] <Jowi> I never tried that but doesn't deleting a password lock the account?
[12:35] <Yert> Jowi: it can be done, I used to set up a passwordless login for my 3 yr old
[12:35] <nahema> how can i became a member of ubuntu comunity ? because where i am it seems that are no distribuitors of ubuntu
[12:35] <Yert> but it's been a while
[12:35] <nahema> and i wood love to be the firs one in my town
[12:35] <Yert> nahema: looks to me like you are already on the way
[12:35] <nahema> :)

[12:36] <nahema> now i am in spain but here my town zaragoza there are none distribuitors
[12:36] <Yert> mpg123 is a console mode mp3 player, also
[12:36] <Pirate_Hunter> hi everyone me again
[12:36] <tim167_> i want to make a time seed for randoms, i try: date %s, but that number is too big, how can i substract 1181200000 from it ? (date %s)-1181200000 doesnt work...
[12:37] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone tell me how i can install Moblock
[12:37] <Yert> and mpd is a media server that has many front ends, including console and web
[12:37] <guyzmo> lol, I thought I was on ubuntu-fr because of that guy :p
[12:37] <nahema> and people don't know what are they missing
[12:37] <tim167_> ( uhm i mean date +%s)
[12:37] <Yert> tim167_: gah.
[12:37] <Yert> random() is the biggest pain in the ass.
[12:38] <nahema> i will like to help make ubuntu more popular
[12:38] <Yert> hey Pirate, no clue
[12:38] <silvertip257> I'd like to know what people think is the best backup utility for all filesystems in general (ntfs, fat32, ext2/3, reiserfs, hfs+, etc).
[12:38] <EScapeCrew> fd
[12:38] <tim167_> Yert, the seed is for another program's random generator to use (puredata)
[12:38] <stefg> !backup | silvertip257
[12:38] <ubotu> silvertip257: There are many ways to back your system up. Here's a few: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DuplicityBackupHowto , https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HomeUserBackup , https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MondoMindi - See also !sbackup and !cloning
[12:38] <Yert> nahema: http://www.ubuntu.com/community/participate
[12:39] <Pirate_Hunter> hi yert damn all i have to work with is MoBlock-0.8-i586.tar.bz2
[12:39] <Yert> silvertip257: commercially, Veritas is great.  open source, I've heard good things about backula
[12:39] <silvertip257> that's one person's opinion, not 5 - 10 people
[12:39] <silvertip257> thanks Yert
[12:39] <nahema> yert: there are development, documentation, design and suport which one?
[12:40] <silvertip257> I'm not a commercial business or anything, so bacula is probably gonna be what I use
[12:40] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: excellent!  tar xvjf MoBlock-0.8-i586.tar.bz2; cd MoBlock-0.8-i586; ./configure; make install
[12:40] <jscinoz> Evening everyone.
[12:40] <Jowi> nox-Hand, I beleive you will need to change the min lenght of the password somewhere in /etc/pam.d/
[12:41] <Yert> nahema: that's up to you.  I'd start by evangelizing :)  There's a link a little further down for Local Community Temas
[12:41] <Pirate_Hunter> yert so i type that in shell
[12:41] <tim167_> how can i get only the last 5 digits of 'date +%s' ?
[12:41] <guyzmo> Yert - not exactly, between configure and make, you forgot : for each missing lib apt-get install thatlib, ./configure and make... :)
[12:41] <nahema> yert: thanks
[12:41] <jscinoz> I've got a major problem with my laptop at the moment, If it has been on for more than ~30mins or if the RAM or GPU-Ram gets full/near full it hangs any idea what causes this and how i can fix it?
[12:42] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: yes, but guyzmo is right - you may run into a dependency that's needed.  If so, write it down, go find it, download (or apt-get) it, lather, rinse, repeat.
[12:42] <guyzmo> tim167_ - you can do date +%s | sed 's/.*\(.....\)$/\1/'
[12:42] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: that's why apt-get is so cool (or synaptic - it's a pretty front-end for apt-get)
[12:43] <Yert> nahema: sure thing
[12:43] <silvertip257> thanks, later all
[12:43] <tim167_> guyzmo cool thanks! i ll try it
[12:43] <tim167_> guyzmo perfect :)
[12:44] <Pirate_Hunter> dependency??? "... it, lather, rinse, repeat."??? - huh me confused
[12:44] <Yert> tim167_: I'd use something besides date for a seed, if you really need it random - I can always change the date.  There's a function that uses the hardware noise from the hard drive, but you'll have to look around for it
[12:44] <guyzmo> :)
[12:44] <nox-Hand> Jowi: thanks
[12:44] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: dependency - something a program depends on to you
[12:44] <Yert> er
[12:44] <Yert> to run
[12:44] <Pirate_Hunter> kl gonna try
[12:46] <novato_br> wow
[12:46] <novato_br> hi dudes
[12:46] <novato_br> what is the best browser files ?
[12:47] <tim167_> Yert, it doesn't need to be that sophisticated, its just because i start two instances of the same program (pd patch) at the same moment, and i want to give them different seeds, so i create a little txt containing two values for that...
[12:47] <Deviad_> Hello
[12:47] <Deviad_> I'm using propertary drivers fglrx 8.37.6 with 2.6.20.12 with mactel patches
[12:47] <Yert> tim167_: so add rand(1,5) to your first seed :)
[12:48] <stefg> novato_br: ususally your chosen desktop environment brings it's own integrated filebrowser, and that's the one to use. no tinkering necessary :-)
[12:48] <Deviad_> and I'm getting this error: http://rafb.net/p/lis1mH95.html can anyone pls help me?
[12:49] <jscinoz> I've got a major problem with my laptop at the moment, If it has been on for more than ~30mins or if the RAM or GPU-Ram gets full/near full the screen flashes black for a second returns to the view i had thenhangs any idea what causes this and how i can fix it?
[12:49] <Yert> tim167_: if it fires off the second instance within the same second, they'll use the same seed.  Trust me, I was writing a character genereator for an RPG in C, and I kept getting characters with all 10 stats being the same value.
[12:50] <Yert> jscinoz: heat and/or bad sector on your RAM
[12:50] <stefg> jscinoz: this sounds more like a hardware-problem. Overheating CPU due to not functioning ACPI ?
[12:50] <tim167_> Yert, well thats why i write 2 seeds to the txtfile, taken 4 seconds appart, tho i should make those 4 seconds variable too...
[12:51] <Yert> jscinoz: try putting on a couple of thin standoffs instead of directly on a lap or table
[12:51] <Yert> ...
[12:51] <novato_br> but, stefg, i guess that came  integrated files browser so complicated
[12:51] <novato_br> i want a files browser more simple
[12:51] <Yert> tim167_: aye.  Like I said, random() is a total PITA.
[12:51] <stefg> novato_br: sorry i don't understand what you mean. there's #ubuntu-br , where you can speak portuguese
[12:51] <tim167_> Yert and it would be better to have values in the miliseconds, how do i get that ?
[12:52] <novato_br> and more easy to browse my files
[12:52] <ipx> How can i make envy use a downloaded file? It wont install the latest driver, and i thought that maybe i could put the new driver-file in a folder and envy could use it?
[12:52] <novato_br> i think they don't know, stefg
[12:52] <sivaji> i cant play any online games because most of the games are shockwave based ple help me
[12:52] <stefg> ipx: don't use envy
[12:52] <novato_br> i'll try to write better
[12:52] <novato_br> wait
[12:52] <ipx> stefg: how come?
[12:52] <sivaji>  i cant install shockwave ple help me
[12:53] <stefg> !envy | ipx
[12:53] <ubotu> ipx: envy is a script that may leave you envious of those who have not used it, use the resticted manager to install binary drivers or use the instructions on the wiki, this script may break your machine very badly!
[12:53] <Myrtti> "there is no shockwave for linux"
[12:53] <Myrtti> the last I checked
[12:53] <tim167_> Yert, yes, I'll stay away from random(), i took a glance at man random and see what you mean...
[12:53] <tarnap_> ther are shockwaves for linux
[12:53] <ipx> :o ok
[12:53] <tarnap_> electroshockwaves
[12:53] <stefg> ipx: so waht are you trying to do?
[12:53] <tarnap_> but those are for windows and others too ;)
[12:53] <ipx> stefg: update the ati-drivers
[12:54] <novato_br> i want the browse file that be more easy to browse on my files
[12:54] <ipx> It works now via the terminal tho. :)
[12:54] <novato_br> I want the browser
[12:54] <tarnap_> i need dead keys on a macintosh keyboard with ubuntu
[12:55] <tarnap_> us layout dvorak variant
[12:55] <tarnap_> :D
[12:55] <kiasanth> anyone know how to get Remote Logins working on ubuntu?
[12:55] <tarnap_> kiasanth: thru ssh or remote desktop?
[12:55] <ubuntu__> Can anybody hear me?
[12:55] <tarnap_> shure ubuntu__
[12:55] <tarnap_> :D
[12:55] <kiasanth> no idea, I wanna use the computer remotely, as if it's local
[12:55] <tarnap_> mean sure
[12:55] <tarnap_> :D
[12:55] <Pirate_Hunter> would protowall work on linux if it was run through mime
[12:56] <Deviad_> http://rafb.net/p/lis1mH95.html can anyone pls help me?
[12:56] <Deviad_> http://rafb.net/p/lis1mH95.html can anyone pls help me
[12:56] <Pirate_Hunter> im just wondering as it could work and block ips
[12:56] <Eric_Jardas> how do I uninstall manually compiled rubygems ?
[12:56] <kiasanth> I've done vnc, but that shares the session with the local user
[12:56] <stefg> ipx: hmmm... i stay away from ati, so i can't really help. But just common wisdom in regard to 'automated' installers. with any automated installer (envy, automatix, easyubuntu) it's alway that you neither nderstand, nor know what they do. So if something breaks you have no clue what might have caused the problem. Better get educated and do it step by step, so you know where problems occur
[12:56] <Yert> tim167_: I'm digging, gimme a sec
[12:57] <kiasanth> no-one knows?
[12:57] <kiasanth> using XDMCP?
[12:58] <tim167_> Yert, ok
[12:58] <stefg> kiasanth: sudo apt-get install openssh-server (ssh is the most popular remote access method)
[12:58] <pipatron> Hey, does anyone have an idea how I tell ubuntu to unload certain modules before suspend to ram, when using uswsusp? After hours of debugging I've found that in order to make my laptop go to sleep, I need to unload 3 modules and call "s2ram -f -a3".
[12:58] <Pirate_Hunter> would protowall work on ubuntu if it was run through mime or crossover, would it still block IP adresses as a service
[12:58] <kiasanth> stefg: is that a terminal thing or proper login with desktop etc?
[12:58] <A[D] minS> !sources.list
[12:58] <pipatron> I've taken care of the latter in the HAL scripts, but I can't find a working place to put the module unloading that HAL actuallty recognize
[12:58] <ubotu> The packages in Ubuntu are divided into several sections. More information at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories and http://www.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/components - See also !EasySource
[12:58] <Jowi> nox-Hand, I did some research. apparently it is possible to create the user normally (with password) but to allow that user to login with gdm without password. google "allow gdm passwordless login"
[12:58] <A[D] minS> !EasySource
[12:58] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[12:58] <Eric_Jardas> how do I uninstall manually compiled rubygems ?
[12:58] <A[D] minS> thz
[12:59] <A[D] minS> thx
[12:59] <nox-Hand> Jowi: thanks
[12:59] <stefg> kiasanth: ssh originally is command line, but you can also forward X connections by ssh -X.
[12:59] <vigneswari> hello all
[12:59] <Pirate_Hunter> no one knows?
[12:59] <Pirate_Hunter> someone must have an idea at least
[12:59] <Pirate_Hunter> anyone?
[01:00] <vigneswari> i faced a problem in my machine after i ve installed ubuntu
[01:00] <Eric_Jardas> how do I uninstall manually compiled rubygems ?
[01:00] <kiasanth> stefg: you can't just set it up on the login screen, I want my little brother to do it, so nothing script based
[01:00] <Yert> tim167_: check out http://c-faq.com/lib/gaussian.html
[01:00] <tim167_> Yert gotit, date +%N is good enough for me :)
[01:00] <vigneswari> if i execute the command cfdisk its showing error
[01:01] <stefg> kiasanth: describe what you want to do. you want your little brother have remote access to your box?
[01:01] <kiasanth> I set up XDMCP but it just waits on a blank screen with a X cursor for ages then exits
[01:01] <kiasanth> stefg: yeah
[01:01] <mdales> is there a g++-4.0 package for fesity available anywhere?

[01:01] <Yert> Pirate_Hunter: you don't need a software firewall, use iptables - it's part of the kernel.  google for "ubuntu smoothwall" if you want an easy interface
[01:01] <Yert> tim167_: ah, wuss. :)
[01:01] <tim167_> Yert, thanks ill look at it later, now must eat something, bye
[01:01] <kiasanth> we did it via vnc but that wasn't his own  separate session
[01:02] <tim167_> Yert hehe

[01:02] <Eric_Jardas> how do I uninstall something I manually compiled ?
[01:02] <Yert> make uninstall
[01:02] <kiasanth> stefg: thanks, I'll look into it

[01:15] <RabidWeezle> I was just wondering if I could put something on the wiki concerning my laptop make and model, I see a page on there for it, but it is for edgy and I want to confirm to them that in feisty most of the problems in edgy went away with different things.
[01:15] <George> the md5 checks up fine.
[01:16] <RabidWeezle> as in when you close the laptop now it doesn't hang the system anymore

[01:18] <novato_br> hi hi ! i'm here
[01:18] <erUSUL> guardian: no, the linux kernel just detects the hardware it runs on and load apropiate modules (drivers) no need to do anything special

[01:18] <guardian> erUSUL: what about xorg.conf ?
[01:19] <timbobsteve> hi all
[01:19] <guardian> erUSUL: it suspect it has to be different from vmware adapter, or real adapter
[01:19] <novato_br> what's the command to see the F.A.Q ?
[01:19] <erUSUL> guardian: that's another matter entairly :| maybe using the vesa driver or some generic driver like that
[01:19] <Spliffster> hi all. i have installed network-manager-pptp but cannot find out how to configure it

[01:20] <novato_br> thx, jrib
[01:20] <Myrtti> Spliffster: you've got nm-applet running?
[01:20] <guardian> erUSUL: yeah well so it would suck :/ i might do it the other way: windows guest in ubuntu vmware host
[01:20] <novato_br> it's here, timbobsteve
[01:21] <Myrtti> timbobsteve: #ubuntu-offtopic?
[01:21] <Spliffster> Myrtti: yes
[01:21] <Pirate_Hunter> i tried to mount it gives me an error: can't find mount poit / my file is save in temporary Internet downloads, so how can I specify the file target
[01:21] <Myrtti> Spliffster: if you click it, you see vpn connections
[01:21] <Spliffster> nope
[01:21] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: you want to create the mount point, for example:  sudo mkdir /media/my_iso
[01:22] <Pirate_Hunter> so the mount would be the folder I want the files to go
[01:22] <Myrtti> Spliffster: strange
[01:22] <Spliffster> Myrtti: i have 3 interfaces configured, lo, eth0 (1000mbit) and eth1 (wifi). except from lo i can select all interfaces but do not see any vpn options
[01:22] <novato_br> what is the ubuntu makes when it isn't has free space on hard disk  ?

[01:22] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: no, create a new directory or bad things will happen

[01:22] <erUSUL> guardian: if you plan to *only* boot ubuntu into vmware then you just have to reconfigure X. Dunno what type of card they simmulate

[01:24] <ubuntu__> Can vista read Ext3 file system?
[01:24] <novato_br> no ubuntu__
[01:24] <erUSUL> Pirate_Hunter: yes, users only have rights over her home (security). Use sudo
[01:24] <novato_br> the vista doesn't read ext
[01:25] <dean__> I want to network this computer (wifi card, ubuntu), with my main computer in my room (WindowsXP, Lynksys router)
[01:25] <novato_br> doesn't interesting to microsoft read EXT3
[01:25] <ubuntu__> novato_br , can I create NTFS drives with Gparted or QTparted?
[01:25] <erUSUL> Pirate_Hunter: example 'sudo mkdir /media/iso_images'
[01:25] <Pirate_Hunter> i understand but in widows when the user makes his first account it automatically becomes an admin
[01:25] <dean__> I already have it so I can access the internet, but I want to bew able to acess the files on both computers from the other one
[01:25] <jrib> novato_br: it can, there are projects by people other than microsoft
[01:26] <novato_br> yep, Ubuntu___
[01:26] <erUSUL> Pirate_Hunter: so you have. you can use sudo. other users can not use sudo
[01:26] <erUSUL> !sudo | Pirate_Hunter
[01:26] <ubotu> Pirate_Hunter: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[01:26] <novato_br> just only other people
[01:26] <ubuntu__> any1 kow if qtparted can create ntfs?
[01:26] <novato_br> because the microsoft haven't interesting in free systems
[01:27] <erUSUL> ubuntu__: just create an empty partition and let windows do the formatting
[01:27] <Pirate_Hunter> I understand but how come when i log in desnt my account automatically go in as admin, that way i wouldnt need sudo
[01:27] <novato_br> ubuntu__, you can creat ntfs on linux
[01:27] <novato_br> but you need one utilitary to write on ntfs partitions
[01:28] <ubuntu__> novato_br I know that part :)
[01:28] <novato_br> ok
[01:28] <erUSUL> Pirate_Hunter: that would be a security risk... if you have to use sudo you will be more carefull on what you do and will not make as many mistakes as you will otherwise do (trust me ;))
[01:28] <novato_br> you can use the partition magic to make this
[01:28] <zeroday> !find putty
[01:28] <cris> hi, please, how to rename File01 to file01 ? Im trying "$ mv File01 file01", but isnt working. So, how to ?
[01:28] <ubotu> Found: putty, putty-tools
[01:28] <jrib> ubuntu__: I forget which one works on vista, but try the projects listed at the bottom of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ext3 .  Also see: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=236274
[01:28] <boyet> guys what kind of os will i use for my internet cafe server
[01:28] <zeroday> !putty
[01:28] <ubotu> SSH is the Secure SHell protocol. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHHowto for usage. Putty is a nice SSH client for Windows; it can be found at http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/
[01:29] <novato_br> it can be fdisk, too
[01:29] <gordonjcp> Pirate_Hunter: running as an admin all the time would be a really bad idea
[01:29] <erUSUL> cris: mv should work
[01:29] <simplyw00x> boyet: I'd recommend ubuntu or possibly edubuntu (for its improved access-limiting)
[01:29] <cris> erUSUL, the command "mv File01 file01" give me an error mesage
[01:30] <gordonjcp> cris: and what does the error message tell you?
[01:30] <simplyw00x> cris: Are you on a windows partition? If so, those names are equivalent
[01:30] <boyet> how about my newly arrived feisty desktop is this not good as server?
[01:30] <Pirate_Hunter> true that not like XP lol
[01:30] <novato_br> what is the best file system: ext3 or reiserfs ?
[01:30] <simplyw00x> boyet: You can install a server on it
[01:30] <cris> simplyw00x, yep , its a windows partition :-)
[01:30] <perfect`light> i have a problem. ubuntu 7.04, nokia n72. connecting GPRS with cable OK, in win - cable & BT - OK. but in ubuntu with BT can't connect.  the same modem ini commands doesn't work with BT
[01:30] <erUSUL> cris: maybe you are not the owner of the file or you do not have the right permissions
[01:30] <simplyw00x> cris: WIndows filesystems are not case-sensitive
[01:31] <gordonjcp> Pirate_Hunter: part of the reason that XP is so breakable is that you're required to run as admin so much
[01:31] <cris> simplyw00x, thankyou
[01:31] <Frogzoo> boyet: the desktop can run as a server, you just have to think hard if you want your server running a gui
[01:31] <novato_br> yep, simplyw00x
[01:31] <simplyw00x> boyet: But it doesn't have the optimised server kernel
[01:31] <boyet> the ubuntu homesite didnt offer a shipping for server is it for sale?
[01:32] <simplyw00x> boyet: You can buy it on cd from other sites
[01:32] <simplyw00x> boyet: I think
[01:32] <IdleOne> !alternate | boyet
[01:32] <ubotu> boyet: The Alternate CD (available as of Dapper) is the classical text-mode installation CD. Use it if you wish to upgrade via CD, or for an "expert" mode install. For normal installs, use the Desktop CD, which is also a "Live" CD - See also !Minimal
[01:32] <jrib> boyet: http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/download
[01:33] <Spliffster> which IRC channel would you suggest about network-manager issues ?
[01:33] <boyet> yah i'll try to burn the server of dapper..r the dev planning to lengten the support for feisty?
[01:33] <simplyw00x> boyet: Not that I know of
[01:33] <Spliffster> boyet: 6.06 is long time support
[01:34] <Pirate_Hunter> what am i doing wrong: sudo mount -o loop smooth-express-2.0-spl.iso mountpoint media/iso_image / what am i missing?
[01:34] <simplyw00x> boyet: But server releases are always supported for longer
[01:34] <Frogzoo> !iso
[01:34] <ubotu> To mount an ISO disc image, type  sudo mount -o loop <ISO-filename> <mountpoint>  - There is a list of useful cd image conversion tools at http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/CD_Image_Conversion - Always verify the ISO using !MD5 before !burning.
[01:34] <Spliffster> boyet where long time means 3 years AFAIK
[01:34] <boyet> ok then ill choose the dapper as server and how about feisty for desktop is it fine?
[01:34] <Frogzoo> Pirate_Hunter: mountpoint needs to be a directory path
[01:34] <IdleOne> boyet, you can use 7.04 as server also
[01:34] <ubuntu__> novato_br , no, qtparted can't create ntfs drives...
[01:35] <jrib> boyet: notice that dapper has been out for a year so you have 4 years of support left
[01:35] <Spliffster> boyet: here in my network i's great. i got full h/w support on the laptop, bling bling ships with feisty (compiz) and my nVidia card on one computer was supported out of the box.
[01:35] <ipx> Spliffster: and 7.04 is not long time support?
[01:35] <Pirate_Hunter> huh!! that now makes so much sense I thought i had to type that as a command - do i just type the directory i want or is it like win C:/docs/folder/etc
[01:36] <ubuntu__> but is it true that vista will create ntfs drive automatically when it sees a drive that is  "dont_use" ?
[01:36] <Spliffster> ipx AFAIK not, dapper is called "6.06 LTS" lts for long time support. then there is 6.10 and 7.04. so i guess only dapper haslong time support
[01:36] <boyet> well i just want to migrate to ubuntu from msxp..want im worried is that at the end of dapper lifespan whats next
[01:36] <ipx> Spliffster: ok :)
[01:36] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: sudo mount -o loop /path/to/your/iso /media/iso_image
[01:36] <erUSUL> Pirate_Hunter: sudo mount -o loop smooth-express-2.0-spl.iso media/iso_image  <<< that's how it is done
[01:37] <Spliffster> boyet, upgrading is really painless
[01:37] <jrib> boyet: the plan is to allow you to upgrade to the next LTS I believe
[01:37] <Marenz> Hi
[01:37] <Pirate_Hunter> thax for stating that I gonna try the windows version which probably would mess up something or worse my home folder
[01:37] <Spliffster> boyet: and if you care about very long term support, you might consider instaling a debian server (ubuntu is built on debian, debian seems to put more effort in stability with the drawback of sometimes outdated packages)
[01:38] <IdleOne> jrib, I beleive that is the plan to upgrade from one lts to next
[01:38] <boyet> i hope feisty has lts they like very much the eye candy
[01:38] <ubuntu__> erusul - Did i undertand you correct, if i have a harddrive with 20GB linux, then rest it empty, will vista automatically make that free space to ntfs?
[01:38] <jrib> boyet: feisty is not lts
[01:38] <Marenz> i installed beryl... and deinstalled it later... now my window-deco's are gone (the min/max and close buttons) . if i type metacity --replace it works for the current session, but how to get it permanently working ?
[01:38] <talmid> hi
[01:39] <boyet> what i mean i hope feisty has got the same lifespan support as dapper
[01:39] <talmid> how do I apt-pin feisty version packages over now version packages
[01:39] <IdleOne> boyet, feisty will be supported for at least 18months
[01:39] <Spliffster> Marenz: i do not know what the propper way is, in case you get no response ou might run metacity fro mthe session manager (under administration)
[01:39] <talmid> most of the now packages are old gutsy packages
[01:40] <talmid> I apt-pinned feisty over gutsy but it didn't help
[01:40] <Marenz> Spliffster  ok
[01:40] <jrib> boyet: it doesn't, feisty is supported for 18 months after release and dapper is supported for 3 years on the desktop and 5 on the server after June 06 (when dapper was released)
[01:40] <erUSUL> ubuntu__: no, if you create a partiton (no empty space) then during the installing process of vista you can choose what partition you want to install it on (i assume)
[01:40] <dean__> How do I access files on my Windows XP computer, running through my router?
[01:40] <erUSUL> ubuntu__: but windows has allways wanted the first partition of the first drive to install on
[01:40] <Deviad> In old kernel agpgart is compiled statically
[01:41] <Spliffster> question: do you know where i can find documentation about network-manager? i cannot find out how to configure pptp (package installed, no ui, can't find config files)
[01:41] <Deviad> so the problem is not even agpgart
[01:41] <Deviad> :<
[01:41] <simplyw00x> dean__: Is file sharing on the windows box enabled?
[01:41] <Deviad> any help?
[01:41] <korzec> hi , how can i change opengl renderer from mesa to ati ?
[01:41] <boyet> well i think feisty is suitable for my server and dapper for my desktop, right?
[01:41] <ubuntu__> erusul - oh ok, thanks.
[01:41] <dean__> I think so...
[01:41] <IdleOne> boyet, dapper for server and feisty for desktop
[01:42] <boyet> ah ok
[01:42] <ubuntu__> do i have to pay norton to make me a ntfs drive?
[01:42] <jrib> boyet: if you don't need recent software then dapper is fine as a server
[01:42] <IdleOne> boyet, dapper will give you a server supported for the next 4 years and feisty will give you nice eye candy
[01:42] <dean__> Anyone know of a HOWTO or something for networking two or more boxen in a home notwork, so I don't have to bother you guys?
[01:42] <simplyw00x> dean__: Then if you go Places / Network, it should appear there
[01:42] <Pirate_Hunter> well now that i understand what to do it cant find the file, in which folder does the files have to reside for it to be picked up
[01:42] <boyet> so dapper will be my server and feisty will be the daesktop
[01:43] <GrAd2000> Hello, world!!!!!!!!!!!
[01:43] <ubuntu__> hi grad2000
[01:43] <tonymon> hello
[01:43] <novato_br> ubuntu__, but i didn't speak about "qparted"
[01:43] <ubuntuish> hi, i've mananged to get to my resolution by the refresh rate is another story :/
[01:43] <korzec> is there a way to do things in ubuntu like #eselect opengl set does in gentoo ?
[01:43] <talmid> Anyone??
[01:43] <novato_br> i told you that you could make with fdisk or partition magic
[01:43] <novato_br> but partition magic is not free
[01:44] <ubuntu__> novato_br what about fdisk?
[01:44] <jrib> korzec: can you describe what that command does?
[01:44] <dean__> I can access a 'Windows Network' in Places/Network Servers. But there is nothing in there.
[01:44] <novato_br> fdisk format  ntfs partition
[01:44] <JuJuBee> As I recall, the mac address of the network adapters is stored in a file somewhere?  Which file?
[01:45] <ubuntuish> any suggestions on how i can get to my desired 60Hz of resolution?
[01:45] <jrib> !fixres > ubuntuish (see the private message from ubotu)
[01:45] <ubuntu__> novato_br is fdisk free or what is it?
[01:45] <ubuntu__> novato_br what company made it?
[01:45] <novato_br> yep
[01:45] <Pirate_Hunter>  well now that i understand what to do it cant find the file, in which folder does the files have to reside for it to be picked up
[01:45] <simplyw00x> dean__: Hmm, make sure you can ping the windows box and that FS *is* enabled
[01:45] <novato_br> fdisk is free
[01:45] <ubuntuish> thanks
[01:45] <simplyw00x> dean__: Also, investigate changing the workgroup in Administration / Sharing
[01:45] <BiTMAP_> anyone ever use crossover linux?

[01:46] <ubotu> BiTMAP_: A large amount of the first questions asked in this channel start with "Does anyone/anybody..."  Why not ask your next question (the real one) and find out?
[01:46] <novato_br> search on google,  ubuntu__

[01:46] <JuJuBee> I used dd to clone a disk and now when I put the disk in new computer, the network adapters are incorrect, ra2 instead of ra0 and mac address is that of other computer.  Need to find where this is stored.
[01:47] <dean__> Thanks. I'm going to bounce for a little while, and try to figure this all out. Thanks.
[01:47] <GrAd2000> simply "Ubuntu is cool"
[01:47] <BiTMAP_> actually that IS my real question, Im wondering opinions and weither or not anyone has anything good or bad to say with it compared to similar products such as wine and cadgeia(sp?)
[01:47] <dean|worthlessNe> dean|away
[01:47] <ipx> How can I make a folder accessable by anyone? (chown something)
[01:47] <Hirvinen> !away | dean|away
[01:47] <ubotu> dean|away: You should avoid changing your nick in a busy channel like #ubuntu - it causes unrequired scrolling which is unfair on new users. The same goes for using noisy away messages : use the command "/away <reason>" to set your client away silently - See also !Guidelines
[01:47] <jrib> ipx: what folder?
[01:48] <ziroday> BiTMAP_: i found crossover really good for apps
[01:48] <dudubs> How i can to set a my default to boot loader??????? thanks.
[01:48] <ziroday> BiTMAP_: if you want games try wine or cedega
[01:48] <Hirvinen> !grub | dudubs
[01:48] <ubotu> dudubs: 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
[01:48] <ipx> jrib: im trying to setup a ftp, and i've created a new user for my friend to log in to, but he gets the following errors when trying to get a list: "[R]  500 Illegal PORT command. [R]  List Error". So I thought it had something to do with user rights?

[01:49] <KomiaPoika> hi
[01:49] <BiTMAP_> ziroday: I'm looking at it for both, i am going to try it for the 30 days.
[01:49] <BiTMAP_> ziroday:  but for games you've found it is slow or?
[01:49] <KomiaPoika> is the howto at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=120091 applicable to 7.04?
[01:49] <dudubs> I want to set winxp to default from ubuntu
[01:49] <dudubs> have it manager?
[01:49] <talmid> how do I apt-pin feisty version packages over now version packages
[01:49] <talmid> most of the now packages are old gutsy packages
[01:49] <Pirate_Hunter> i give up gonna do some reading get used to ubuntu and maybe in a week will try installing programs - well thanx for ur help ppl c yah
[01:49] <talmid> I apt-pinned feisty over gutsy but it didn't help
[01:50] <jrib> dudubs: do this: 'gksudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst' and modify the line that begins "default" appropriately
[01:50] <dudubs> ok thanks
[01:50] <ubuntu__> Can I get fdisk working on Ubuntu/Kubuntu?
[01:50] <jrib> ipx: but what folder
[01:51] <ipx> jrib: /home/slox/
[01:51] <ziroday> BiTMAP_: truthfully cedega is marginally faster for games but its a pain to set up the games, however crossover is the easiest to use is also the slowest for games, wine is a good in between for usability and games. But for anything else crssover is the way to go
[01:51] <adil> hi
[01:51] <adil> what's up on the chat
[01:51] <jrib> ipx: and what are the current permissions?
[01:51] <adil> does anyone have a good tutoriel to begin deb
[01:51] <gnomefreak> talmid: what is the problem you are having i will see if i can answer you but others in here can help if i cant
[01:51] <jrib> adil: to do what?
[01:51] <talmid> gnomefreak: thank you
[01:51] <gnomefreak> adil: what do you mean
[01:51] <Frogzoo> mmm... wouldn't wine be more recent than either cedega or xover office?
[01:52] <hylje> xover people contribute stuff to wine
[01:52] <hylje> i'd believe they keep themselves a bit ahead
[01:52] <BiTMAP_> ziroday:  would you say crossover is similar to parallels for mac?
[01:52] <adil> i search a good tutoriel to install et perform my deb
[01:52] <cerculetz> hello. is there any way to disable updating of a certain package (for example in update manager) ?
[01:52] <ipx> jrib: never mind, just found out that it's ownewd by the right user
[01:53] <gnomefreak> !pinning | cerculetz
[01:53] <ubotu> cerculetz: pinning is an advanced feature that APT can use to prefer particular packages over others. See https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto
[01:53] <ziroday> BiTMAP_: no way, something similar would be vmware or virtualbox
[01:53] <jrib> ipx: yeah, must be some ftp setting I guess.  Try asking again, but mention it's ftp
[01:53] <talmid> gnomefreak: this computer was upraded to gutsy by accident just when it came out. The person when he noticed change the rep to feisty. A few things are broken and I am trying to downgrade the whole system to feisty
[01:53] <talmid> gnomefreak: I'll pastebin my pin file
[01:53] <gnomefreak> talmid: reinstall
[01:53] <adil> oh dear
[01:53] <gnomefreak> talmid: pinning wont help you
[01:53] <adil> i gotta go
[01:53] <Frogzoo> cerculetz: in synaptic, choose select version
[01:54] <BiTMAP_> sorry, i ment more in the way where they are headed, you can simply just use the same desktop for both machines. i havnt heard of virtualbox i am pretty sure vmware doesnt do that. Do either actually run the os emulated on your real hardware? (being thats what sets parallels ahead of most)
[01:54] <cerculetz> gnomefreak: thank you!
[01:54] <gnomefreak> !downgrade > talmid (please read the om from ubotu)
[01:54] <gnomefreak> cerculetz: yw
[01:54] <ipx> When a friends is trying to enter my ftp-server, he wont get a list and gets the following errors: "[R]  500 Illegal PORT command. [R]  List Error". Any ideA?
[01:54] <talmid> ok
[01:54] <Frogzoo> ipx: firewall issue most likely
[01:55] <talmid> gnomefreak: I am a old debian user. I am actually interested to see what I am doing wrong with my pin file. do you mind have a quick look at it?
[01:55] <ziroday> BiTMAP_: basically wine is a program that tries to pretend that its Xp for the programs whilst vmware/virtualbox actually are XP in a virtual machine (parallels)
[01:56] <BiTMAP_> ziroday: i may need to try virtualbox, However I have Used VMware and in my experience it created a sub par emulated machine (aka the VM) that was not actually useing the real hardware in the box.
[01:56] <gnomefreak> talmid: i cant atm im a bit busy but someone in here should beable to. i doubt its you. there is no way to downgrade safely or a way that works at all afaik

[01:58] <cerculetz> gnomefreak: actually pinning might not be of help. I've recompiled something from the up-to-date source pkg and now update-manager insists the pkg needs updating (to the same version) .. sounds familiar ? :D
[01:59] <talmid> gnomefreak: I am going to reinstall. It is just that such a pin file would have worked in debian I am wondering why it doesn't work in ubuntu. Did ubuntu do anything to break it?
[02:00] <gnomefreak> cerculetz: pinning should help.
[02:00] <cerculetz> oh ok. I'll look further
[02:00] <RustyJames> is there a command line tool to switch display resolution? i need it for a script im  writing

[02:01] <NET||abuse> it was working and now,, well it doesn't work at all anymore :(
[02:01] <NET||abuse> i'm not picking up any networks in scan
[02:01] <talmid> gnomefreak: what do you mean?
[02:01] <RabidWeezle> has anyone here ever setup lirc on feisty? I want to setup a remote for my laptop that has a built in ir port
[02:01] <NET||abuse> i'm on edgy btw,, 2.6.17-11-generic kernel.
[02:03] <gnomefreak> talmid: gutsy is broken anything could be causing it. im in the middle of working atm i dont see anything wrong with thte file from what i remember please ask the channel im a bit busy atm (gutsy may not be reading the file correctly hence gutsy is broken
[02:03] <Pici> TTRanger: Thats because xmms2 isnt in the Ubuntu repositories.
[02:04] <TTRanger> Pici Where do I get it?
[02:04] <NET||abuse> TTRanger: xmms 1.2.10+cvs is on the repo's for edgy
[02:05] <Frogzoo> RustyJames: xrandr
[02:05] <Pici> NET||abuse: He wants xmms2 not xmms 1
[02:05] <NET||abuse> ahh, ok,, then go to xmms site download the .deb file and sudo dpkg --install xmms2.x.x.x.x.xblah.deb
[02:06] <NET||abuse> i thought xmms 2 was a dead project anyway?
[02:06] <TTRanger> NET||abuse, Wow, that's news to me.  Where did you read that?
[02:06] <talmid> gnomefreak: I see. Nothing is actually broken with this system any more (just fixed it). I manually downgraded the lib that was causing the problem. thank you. I try and debug the problem quickly then reinstall the box.
[02:07] <NET||abuse> TTRanger: nah, i'm wrong... a year ago there was a consideration to quit the project, but evidently they didnt :)
[02:07] <talmid> gnomefreak: this box has actually been upgraded from debian warty all way to ubuntu gutsy without any problems.
[02:07] <RustyJames> Frogzoo, Thanks thats what i needed
[02:07] <talmid> gnomefreak: pretty old box :D thank you.
[02:08] <gnomefreak> talmid: ubuntu warty. debian didnt have a warty relelase asair
[02:08] <NET||abuse> anyway: TTRanger: go to http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/index.php/Main_Page and have a look, there's prolly install instructions for ubuntu there.. maybe a deb repository to add to your sources or something handy like that
[02:08] <Pici> TTRanger: xmms2 isnt stable yet, but there does appear to be an #xmms2 channel here that might be able to help you find the deb packages so you can try installing it on ubuntu.

[02:09] <NET||abuse> http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se/index.php/Download_XMMS2#Linux seems to suggest there's only debian, fedora, ATL LINux Sisyphus, Crus, frugalware Linux, Arch Linux and Gentoo support from their site.

[02:09] <talmid> gnomefreak: it is very late for me
[02:10] <Pici> JuJuBee: Its useful if you want to change your mac address.
[02:10] <NET||abuse> strange for an active project not to have an ubuntu release, or deb file..
[02:10] <Pici> NET||abuse: I know, very odd.
[02:11] <talmid> gnomefreak: heh apt all its related software are the feisty version. This box wasn't updating to gutsy for very long.
[02:11] <NET||abuse> oh well,,, anyway, anyone able to help me fix my wifi card?? i can't get any networks up on a scan.. i'm sitting 2 feet from the AP,, and another laptop is on it no problem.
[02:11] <JuJuBee> Pici : can you change the mac address if the adapter does not change?
[02:11] <NET||abuse> infact 4 other laptops of my housemates are on no problem
[02:12] <Yitram> have u tried setting the config manually??
[02:12] <NET||abuse> so anyone able to suggest a fix for my atheros 5212 wifi card?
[02:13] <Hultiz> i have a windows program that reads what i copy and i run it with wine, but it can't seem to "connect" to the linux clipboard. how can i do it?

[02:18] <erlingre> mandh: you can use dpkg -L slapd also to find all files associated with that package. All files in etc are used to configure the package
[02:18] <NET||abuse> what could i check in terms of kernel modules or drivers to see if they're broken?
[02:18] <NET||abuse> lsmod | grep ath produces ath_pci, ath_rate_sample, ath_hal..

[02:21] <NET||abuse> fglrx will only work on Xgl, i don'tknow if the radeon driver supports the x1600 or not.. check on the wiki
[02:21] <crdlb> Genefreak, join #ubuntu-effects
[02:21] <NET||abuse> but if you can use the radeon driver, you can run on default X and beryl

[02:47] <no_hdd> Hello All. I am trying to do something funny here. I have a laptop, NEC Versa LiteFxi that has no HDD. The bios will not let me boot up from a USB flash drive. I can only boot from a CD-ROM. I would like to create a bootable CD, boot the system and then boot into the USB drive. BTW Grub cannot detect the USB flash drive so I cannot directly ask Grub to boot into the USB drive.
[02:47] <no_hdd> Any suggestions?
[02:48] <erUSUL> no_hdd: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SmartBootManagerHowto
[02:48] <erUSUL> ??
[02:48] <no_hdd> erUSUL, I heard that smart boot manager but that doesn't work with USB.
[02:49] <Kmos> how to test Cpu frequency scaling on my laptop ?
[02:49] <George> !tty
[02:49] <ubotu> To get to the tty terminals 1-6, use the keystroke ctrl + alt + F1-F6 respectively (Alt+F7 will get you back to your graphical login).
[02:50] <bullgard4> What is meant with 'tty11' in my /dev/tty11?
[02:50] <erlingre> tsurc: okay. odt documents are probably quite simple to access with a server side scripting language and display as html to the users, but I guess presentations / spreadsheets are harder to present in a nice way, but as mentioned earlier a plugin for FF is probably the best, but I'm not sure how easy it is to display the document in a given frame and not a whole window.

[02:51] <Yasuo> hi, how do i get rid of this boot-sector-differs warning of fsck?
[02:52] <Jowi> Genefreak, are you talking about midi connectivity or simply playing midi files?
[02:52] <antario> hello?
[02:52] <no_hdd> Is it possible to build a CD that can somehow detect the USB drive and then boot off of it?
[02:52] <Zenerek> no_hdd: first off i don't know how much help i can be but i think the first step would be to see if you can detect the drive   run  this command in a terminal   dmesg | grep sda
[02:53] <xtlosx> anyone anyone, latitude laptop issues?
[02:53] <antario> I would like to ask that do anyone know a working configuration for a 9310 graphic tablet, or any other tablet that uses a serial port?
[02:54] <no_hdd> Zenerek, this system does detect the USB flash drive, but the problem is that it is NOT detected while loading grub. Once I boot the system up, it sees the drive.
[02:54] <Genefreak> just playing midi files at the moment, but will want connectivity later on....... just to play my soundcard's wavetable from a keyboard.
[02:54] <craigbass1976> Ok folks, I'm at the end of a long rope, hanging on to the knot I tied yesterday...  I am trying, without much success, to get UBuntu running on a Dell Inspiron 1100.  I read the forums and all I saw to do was update the bios, which I did.  I've tried dapper, edgy, feisty, xubdapper, kubdapper, kubedgy.  Xub and kub at least got me to an arrow or an x (respectively) but that's where things died.
[02:54] <tsurc> erlingre: its possible with windows as the plugin is part of the windows OO installation.. and it works a treat. But we don't want to go down that route. We want the arrive at the same place but using ubuntu/firefox. apparently debian includes it in its OO pagkages but Ubuntu doesn't.... so I've been told.
[02:55] <jrib> craigbass1976: have you managed to install it?
[02:55] <no_hdd> Zenerek, so there is no problem with detecting the drive. Infact I had formatted the flash drive after having booted up ubuntu live
[02:55] <antario> anything with my 9310 tablet?...?
[02:55] <Kerzinger> ubuntu-problem: after kernel-update and reboot the X-Window-System complains in /var/log/Xorg.0.log : Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module! what are the steps for remedy a newwbee can do?
[02:55] <craigbass1976> jrib, no, I can't even boot to it.  I've also tried two versions of knoppix, but the only OS I can get up on this rig is PuppyLinux

[02:56] <craigbass1976> jrib, that's how I backed up the files before trying an install
[02:56] <jrib> craigbass1976: did you try to use the Alternate CD?
[02:56] <xtlosx> hey does anyone know if there are issues with Ubuntu and Dell Latitude D531, it has an ATI Radeon Xpress 1270, and the regular 7.04 installer won't run, X can't start.. Any ideas?
[02:56] <antario> please.... can anyone help me?
[02:56] <craigbass1976> jrib, I thought I did, but can you give me the link to the exact download spot?  The iso I downloaded thinking it was the alternate cd seems to be a regular dapper iso
[02:57] <nd81x> can someone tell me where i can find ncurses-dev for fiesty? plz
[02:57] <jrib> craigbass1976: releases.ubuntu.com
[02:57] <erUSUL> nd81x: 'apt-cache search ncurses'
[02:57] <Jowi> !info ncurses-dev
[02:57] <ubotu> Package ncurses-dev does not exist in feisty, feisty-seveas
[02:57] <Zenerek> i though maybe you wanted to install ubuntu on the pendrive or did you want to have a live cd image on the drive? anyway it seems obvious that 1 your bios are too old or 2 you missed a setting in the bios
[02:57] <gandalfcome> ,er
[02:58] <kilosux> hi
[02:58] <no_hdd> Zenerek, the bios is too old. It does not have an option to boot off a USB device :(
[02:58] <gandalfcome> Kerzinger: I have the same problem is there anyone who can help ? thanks
[02:58] <kilosux> is it possible to download film whith wget from videogoogle ?
[02:58] <antario> Zenerek, can you help me with my 9310 digital tablet?
[02:58] <erUSUL> nd81x: 'apt-cache search ncurses'| head  will give you a more acurate answer ;P
[02:58] <no_hdd> I had never done anything other than pop in a CD and install to HDD. This one is a little off the normal way to install linux.
[02:59] <antario> i will bother you guys until you help me :)
[02:59] <craigbass1976> jrib, well there.  That's not the one I got.  I went to the regular download page and checked a box that I thought would give me the alternate.  Eghads, this stack of discs is getting big.  I should go into the city and peddle them.... "Hey kid, want to try something?"
[02:59] <jrib> craigbass1976: haha
[02:59] <Zenerek> antario sorry i can't
[02:59] <craigbass1976> antario, You might get rather shunned with statements like "i will bother you guys until you help me :)"
[03:00] <erlingre> tsurc: I would have tried to install the plugin manually in Ubuntu. Maybe filed a bug-report with a request to include the plugin.
[03:00] <antario> sorry...
[03:00] <RedGhost> If I wanted to view the source code of something like "rm" where would I find it?
[03:00] <Xteven> hi, how can I autostart programs when gnome is started ? I want to set this up for all users (i.e. systemwide)
[03:00] <craigbass1976> antario, But let me read back and see if I was in here when you asked the question...
[03:00] <jrib> !please > antario (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:00] <Xteven> RedGhost: check which package the binary belongs to, and download the source
[03:00] <Xteven> dpkg -S /bin/rm
[03:01] <yellow_chicken> anyone know how to setup gdb's core dump function?  ulimit -c unlimited <-- i did this, but don't know what to do next
[03:01] <Xteven> rm belongs to package coreutils
[03:01] <jrib> RedGhost: apt-get source PACKAGE   will get you the source for the package as Xteven suggested
[03:01] <nd81x> i need install this ncurses-dev, but don't know how? :p
[03:01] <Jowi> RedGhost, first find which package rm is in: "dpkg -S /bin/rm" then "apt-get source packagename"
[03:01] <craigbass1976> antario, Sorry dude, no idea.  My wife has a tablet from work and I was hoping to mess with it a bit, but they failed to put a cdrom in.
[03:01] <Xteven> RedGhost: then check https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/coreutils/5.97-5.3ubuntu1
[03:01] <RedGhost> alright, downloading know thanks guys
[03:01] <erUSUL> antario: the truth is that not many people uses graphic tablets so maybe none here can help you...
[03:01] <craigbass1976> antario, are not able to boot to a cd, or install, or what?
[03:01] <Xteven> or apt-get source indeed :)
[03:02] <jrib> Xteven: /etc/xdg/autostart/  works like ~/.config/autostart/ but system-wide
[03:02] <antario> yeah, I was afraid...
[03:02] <Xteven> jrib: aha interesting, thx :)
[03:02] <craigbass1976> antario, did you search ubuntu forums for your model number, or graphics tablet?
[03:02] <antario> i mean it is connected, but not working...
[03:02] <antario> yes
[03:02] <kenthomson> I need some help setting up my Cowon Iaudio u2 with Amarok 1.4.5. I am on Feisty Fawn. The u2 is detected fine and is a ums device so drag and drop is possible but how do i set it up in amarok? Please help

[03:05] <Xteven> jrib: looks like an interesting read, thx alot!
[03:05] <Yasuo> ok runnign fsck -r solves this
[03:05] <Jowi> logmein, might be that the DNS is faulty
[03:06] <bullgard4> What is meant with 'tty11' in my /dev/tty11?
[03:06] <Lumiere> bullgard4: tty11 is the 11th terminal

[03:07] <bullgard4> Lumiere: I do not have 11 terminals!

[03:08] <bentob0x> this might sound like a noob question but how can I make my command prompt letters white?
[03:08] <Lumiere> bullgard4: you many not see them, but they're there if you need them
[03:08] <gordonjcp> bentob0x: check in the profiles section of the menus
[03:08] <logmein> Jowi: cat resolv.conf says output/input error and when I do mousepad /etc/resolv.conf it shows blank
[03:08] <bullgard4> Lumiere: Can you elaborate?
[03:08] <JuJuBee> What is the command to apt-get the linux headers?
[03:08] <fabio__|> where crond stores logfile about what it executed? thanks
[03:08] <atomiku> Is there any way to start firestarter through the console? (SSH)
[03:08] <Fawaz> !openssh | fawaz
[03:08] <gordonjcp> bentob0x: you can set the colours
[03:09] <Jowi> bentob0x, "xterm -fg white -bg black" or check the profile settings in gnome-terminal
[03:09] <MattJ> Fawaz: It is a new installation?
[03:09] <Jowi> logmein, ls -la /etc/resolv.conf
[03:09] <Lumiere> bullgard4: do I really need to? you shouldn't really be worried at all about anything in dev
[03:09] <Fawaz> Mattj: yes
[03:09] <jrib> atomiku: why do you want to?
[03:09] <bentob0x> is there not a .bashrc file or something into which I can make the changes for it?
[03:09] <atomiku> jrib: long story. How can I?
[03:10] <bentob0x> at the moment, my outout is grey which is what I want but I want also the prompt to be white
[03:10] <jrib> atomiku: the answer depends on my question
[03:10] <Fawaz> mattj: i donno what i'm missing or how to configure it
[03:10] <atomiku> jrib: i have no monitor or mouse for it
[03:10] <MattJ> Fawaz: I think it is normal to get a warning the first time you log in. It is just telling you to be sure that the place you are logging into is somewhere you trust...
[03:10] <atomiku> jrib: and i cant plug this one in because the box is far away
[03:10] <ubuntu-rocks> what free irc windows client do you guys recommend?
[03:10] <atomiku> ..
[03:10] <atomiku> xchat
[03:10] <fabio__|> bentob0x: maybe you shold set your terminal options
[03:10] <atomiku> ubuntu-rocks: xchat
[03:10] <MattJ> ubuntu-rocks: Miranda IM <3
[03:11] <Fawaz> MattJ: but after the warning i get Host key verification failed.
[03:11] <osfameron> xchat is fairly sane and comes preinstalled with ubuntu I think
[03:11] <MattJ> Fawaz: Oh, I don't know...
[03:11] <logmein> Jowi: doesn't that do the same as cat? it yielded the same error input/output problem
[03:11] <atomiku> jrib: so.. any ideas?
[03:11] <jrib> atomiku: so you want to edit policies.  It's probably better to just setup !iptables rules, b ut if you forward X, then you should be able to just run 'gksu firestarter' and get firestarter to pop up remotely
[03:11] <Jowi> logmein, if it does not exist create it. the syntax is very simple. "gksudo mousepad /etc/resolv.conf" nameserver 1st.ip.add.ress (new line) nameserver 2nd.ip.add.ress (save file). restart network if needed with "sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart"
[03:11] <JuJuBee> Anybody : apt-get for linux headers... iirc something like `uname -r` ...?
[03:11] <atomiku> jrib: hmm
[03:12] <Fawaz> maybe someone here could help please, i get Host key verification failed. when i try to login to my ssh server
[03:12] <atomiku> jrib: okay thanks
[03:12] <kenthomson>  I need some help setting up my Cowon Iaudio u2 with Amarok 1.4.5. I am on Feisty Fawn. The u2 is detected fine and is a ums device so drag and drop is possible but how do i set it up in amarok? Please help. I think this could be causing the problem, in the configure media device dialog box, the song location reads "%filename.%filetype" and the example song location (this is a dynamic field which can't be hand-edited but it displays the effect of the
[03:12] <kenthomson> before mentioned field) says "/mnt/iaudio-u2//some file.mp3".  I have set that mount point and it is correct and functional. I think those two // are causing the trouble. How do i remove those TWO "//"s. i mean how can a song location be "/mnt/iaudio-u2//some file.mp3"? (How does anyone parse that kind of two-"//"s). But there could be another problem too, i don't know.
[03:12] <Fawaz> MattJ : and thnax mattj for trying to help

[03:17] <mattwalston> anyone know why my usb scanner will only work when ran as root?  what perms need to be set?
[03:17] <ubuntuish> anyone got a solution for why the title bars disappear when desktop effects are enabled?

[03:18] <logmein> Jowi: oh one more thing I noticed is on boot it displays bug error # with bios. I'm using pheonix bios and I use that with another computer. Any idea how to fix that or will I need to reflash?
[03:18] <Jowi> !patience | kenthomson
[03:18] <ubotu> kenthomson: The people here are volunteers, your attitude may determine how fast you are helped.  Not everyone is available all the time, likewise not every answer is available instantly. See also http://wiki.ubuntu.com/IrcGuidelines
[03:18] <mattwalston> ubuntuish, i had it happen before but did not really care, if I wanted a pretty gui i would get one
[03:19] <mattwalston> kenthomson, if someone knows the answer and finds your attitude agreeable you will certainly get it
[03:19] <Jowi> logmein, I never had any errors like that so I wouldn't know.
[03:19] <kenthomson> ubuntuish, Do this "sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf" Looks for Section "screen", add this option if it is not there "	Option 		"AddARGBGLXVisuals" 	"true""
[03:19] <ubuntuish> kenthomson, done :/
[03:19] <logmein> Jowi: I was thinking about reflashing some new firmware anyway just for the fun of it xD
[03:19] <ubuntuish> kenthomson, i've reading and checking everywhere :/
[03:19] <lalo> ok, quick one.  In the non-ubuntu install I had before on the laptop, I could put "xset -dpms s off" on my xinitrc, and it would stop the monitor from blanking (I like to blank explicitly when I'm not using, as I often use the laptop to watch progress of stuff)
[03:19] <lalo> now it's running xubuntu, and even after xset, it still blanks.  What's wrong?  Some ACPI/APM thing maybe?
[03:20] <ubuntuish> what sucks most is i think its my resolution coz the effects were working fine when the resoltuion was in 1024x768
[03:20] <kenthomson> ubuntuish, Log-out and log-in, see whether you are having the title bar
[03:20] <ubuntuish> that i have to try, yes
[03:20] <logmein> Jowi: another *very* annoying error is that bcm43xxmicrocode5.fw is missing thing. How do you remove that? even if you do get it working with nidswrapper it still pesters you right?
[03:20] <Arrick> heya lall
[03:20] <Jowi> ubuntuish, 1st make sure you have emerald installed, next make sure you have Composite enabled in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[03:20] <Arrick> how do i copy all the files in one directory, into another directory? I need the whole directory duplicated...
[03:21] <ubuntuish> Jowi, but it worked earlier
[03:21] <Supaplex> Arrick: man cp :) or rsync.
[03:21] <logmein> ubuntuish: there is also xgl on top of xorg method and you might want to try different versions of beryl some work better with different cards
[03:21] <dbrewer_rjr> what is the best graphical ftp client for ubuntu?
[03:21] <ubuntuish> i am not using beryl
[03:21] <Jowi> logmein, I know nothing about troubleshooting wifi. It just worked for me.
[03:21] <ubuntuish> using the desktop effects which come with ubuntu
[03:21] <logmein> dbrewer_rjr: hmm filezilla is nice
[03:22] <dbrewer_rjr> logmein: does it have an apt-get install?
[03:22] <logmein> yep
[03:22] <Jowi> ubuntuish, oh.
[03:22] <dbrewer_rjr> thankx
[03:22] <Zenerek> speaking of gnome, does anyone know why it's such a hog?
[03:22] <lalo> nobody knows?  thanks :-P
[03:22] <logmein> dbrewer_rjr: also you could try swiftfox and a few about:config tweaks. If you do torrents I recommend bit tornado
[03:23] <ubuntuish>  [Mem]   Usage: 469/2026MB (23.15%)
[03:23] <ubuntuish> hog?
[03:23] <ubuntuish> i have music playing, wine + mirc, azureus running, firefox
[03:23] <ubuntuish> :/
[03:23] <logmein> ubuntuish: nah if the memory is there it reserves extra for applications unless it requires more memory then it tightens down
[03:23] <Jowi> Zenerek, it's getting bloated. but if it is very very slow on starting apps there's a bug which is that if you don't have a hostname it will slow everything down.
[03:23] <logmein> ubuntuish: linux kernel is very dynamic with memory
[03:24] <craigbass1976> jrib, I'm at 60%... This seems to take forever when I'm waiting on just that download
[03:24] <ubuntuish> i didn't say it was a hog :/
[03:24] <Jowi> Zenerek, cat /etc/hostname to see if it exist
[03:24] <bedboi> hi there... is there a way to install ubuntu from the command line using the live cd?
[03:25] <lalo> gnome is not necessarily designed to be lean and fast, it has other priorities.  If you prefer lean and fast than pretty and featureful, try xfce (xubuntu) instead
[03:25] <lalo> although to my admittedly skewed taste, xfce is prettier
[03:25] <logmein> ubuntuish: well if your conscerned about memory might consider xubuntu, sys-rc-conf is nice app to turn off services too, and instead of init ubuntu uses a sys v boot system if your interested in tweaking it up
[03:25] <ubuntuish> bro it wasn't me!
[03:25] <ubuntuish> :/
[03:25] <Madsy> Or fluxbuntu
[03:25] <Jowi> lalo, imho xubuntu is not as light as it used to :-/
[03:25] <Madsy> I love fluxbox :-)
[03:26] <ubuntuish> i am the one whining about desktop effects
[03:26] <logmein> ubuntuish: what is problem with them?
[03:26] <ubuntuish> no title bar
[03:26] <ubuntuish> disappears on enable
[03:26] <logmein> Jowi: yeah it needs a lot of work
[03:26] <lalo> Jowi: I'd have to concur :-(  still lighter than gnome though, which my laptop wouldn't be able to run decently
[03:26] <gp|work> ubuntuish: Are you talking about Beryl?
[03:26] <kenthomson> ubuntuish, first log-out and in then come here back
[03:26] <Zenerek> yeah it's there i ask because the other day...or month...whatever, i was here and i was told it may be too much for my pc, well i am running and 800 p3 with 800 ram
[03:27] <logmein> Madsy: any idea how to implement on another window manager that fluxbox ability where you right click on task list at bottom and select kill
[03:27] <lalo> Zenerek: xubuntu material definitely :-D
[03:27] <Jowi> Zenerek, no, that should be fine
[03:27] <ubuntuish> kenthomson i shall do that right now sorry
[03:27] <ubuntuish> gp|work, no berly
[03:27] <ubuntuish> brb
[03:28] <Jowi> Zenerek, type "hostname" in a terminal and see if it's set

[03:30] <Jowi> clarkey, if the kernel was upgraded, reboot and chose the old one that did work.
[03:30] <Jinesh>  i want to install vmware tools on my ubintu. Can anyone help me ?
[03:30] <lalo> Jinesh: is there vmware tools for linux?  AFAIK there isn't
[03:30] <logmein> Jinesh: sure but you know there is also open source emulator qemu and most apps can be ran near natively with wine
[03:30] <clarkey> Jowi: sry newbie here ....
[03:30] <Jinesh> lalo my host in wondows and guest is linux
[03:30] <lalo> Jinesh: please don't repeat the question so often, it's called "flooding" and people generally don't like it
[03:30] <vlad_> KomiaPoika, just try using synaptic (the GUI package manager)
[03:31] <lalo> Jinesh: yes, but AFAIK vmware tools for linux doesn't exist
[03:31] <Jinesh> sure lalo
[03:31] <Zenerek> anyway it's that my pc is strong enough because if i have to use my #1 system for gnome (4600 amd dual core 2gb ram serial ata and dvd) then it's time to switch wmgrs
[03:31] <Sevensins> well im leavin
[03:31] <Jowi> clarkey, no need to apologise. a kernel upgrade can make your system unstable.
[03:31] <Sevensins> bye all
[03:31] <clarkey> Jowi: how do I choose a kernel
[03:31] <Tom47> KomiaPoika:  apt-get install openoffice.org
[03:31] <logmein> jinesh: there is vmware support for linux though
[03:31] <Jinesh> lalo : my host is windows and i m using linux as guest on vm
[03:31] <KomiaPoika> Tom47: that installs only a 27kb archive
[03:31] <lalo> yeah
[03:31] <lalo> ubuntu works great in the guest, just no vmware tools
[03:31] <Jowi> clarkey, each time the kernel is upgraded the old one is kept. reboot your computer. at the bootscreen you will be able to chose which kernel to boot.
[03:32] <Jinesh> so my VM tells me to inntall vmware tools on ubuntu
[03:32] <bedboi> ok
[03:32] <logmein> Jinesh: so you want to test out ubuntu? its going to be really slow on emulation
[03:32] <bedboi> thanks
[03:32] <Jinesh> lalo : can u explain in bit detail ?
[03:32] <ExIG> hi, problem with firefox and opera, i get a timeout error when trying to load gmail. it just refuses to load at all could any one help?
[03:32] <lalo> your vm is wrong, it doesn't exist :-)
[03:32] <clarkey> Jowi thanks heaps
[03:32] <tengil> could anyone that knows about harddrive problems take a look at http://pastebin.ca/547649 and tell me what this possibly means. Fucked up disks or some other problem?
[03:32] <lalo> vmware tools only exists for windows guests
[03:32] <Tom47> KomiaPoika: do you have synaptic?
[03:32] <Jinesh> ok
[03:32] <Wips> I try to play a movie, it's 700mb large. But the movie stops at 24 seconds, right after the paramount intro.. As if that's all.. But that can't be 700mb.. Anyone have any idea? I have plenty of codecs
[03:32] <Jinesh> but it is showing me .tar.gz file for vmware tools
[03:32] <KomiaPoika> Tom47: yes
[03:33] <kenthomson> Can aNyOnE help me setup Cowon iaudio u2 in amarok?
[03:33] <Jowi> Wips, corrupted file
[03:33] <tim167> what's the command to see what processor i have ?
[03:33] <Tom47> !ohmy | tengil:
[03:33] <ubotu> tengil:: Please watch your language and keep this channel family friendly.
[03:33] <gilo1> I'm looking for two different GUIs, one for Snort and one for IPSec, anyone know of any?
[03:33] <Jinesh> also it shows me a .rpm file
[03:33] <Wips> Jowi: oh, k.. anyone I can do about it?
[03:33] <tengil> ubotu: oh im sorry
[03:33] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about oh im sorry - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[03:33] <lalo> Jinesh: then I'm wrong and it does exist
[03:33] <skulrid> hello
[03:33] <Wips> Anything* sorry
[03:33] <logmein> tengil: what type of hardrive and model? what output this error? what file system and partitions? did you screw up hdparm?
[03:33] <tengil> messed up disks i ment to say :)
[03:33] <lalo> Jinesh: you want the tar.gz; unpack it somewhere and look in the files, there will be a script that you run to install
[03:33] <Zenerek> Wips: hey i had a prob like that, turns out it was becuase i was not using the best kernel
[03:33] <Genefreak> re midi: i've added the repository but cant find the timidity-patches-eaw download.... any ideas?
[03:33] <Jinesh> ok, thanks lalo for trying to help me
[03:33] <Wips> Zenerek: Kernel?
[03:33] <Tom47> KomiaPoika: try that and you will see a bunch of packages
[03:33] <Jowi> Wips, re-rip the movie.
[03:34] <lalo> Jinesh: I think it's called "install.sh"
[03:34] <Jinesh> but now how should i install an rpm file or tar.gz file
[03:34] <Jinesh> nope it is in perl
[03:34] <Jinesh> .pl extension
[03:34] <noelferreira> wich is the best way to share files betwen to feisty systems?
[03:34] <Zenerek> yeah man the kernel your using,
[03:34] <Jinesh> and ubuntu doesnt seem to have perl
[03:34] <noelferreira> wich is the best way to share files betwen 2 feisty systems?
[03:34] <gp|work> Jinesh: You have to install the Perl package.
[03:35] <Delirium-NL> bot can ya tell me if theres a tutorial for ntfs-3g ?
[03:35] <Jowi> noelferreira, go to the share preferences in the menu
[03:35] <Jinesh> how to install perl package then
[03:35] <Wips> Zenerek: Well what's the "best" kernel and where might I get it?
[03:35] <tengil> logmein: its output by dmesg. i also get the error "read only filesystem" when i try to create something on it now. its a maxtor drive. filesystem is ext3, and i havent changed anything with hdparm anyways
[03:35] <Jowi> !ntfs-3g
[03:35] <ubotu> ntfs-3g is a Linux driver which allows read/write access to NTFS partitions. Installation instructions at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MountingWindowsPartitions
[03:35] <skulrid> I have a problem, I cant play any flash or macromedia and firefox always crashes when a page trys to play any media of that kind. I instaled adobe players, the nonfree-flash plugin, bt nothing works, what can I do?? thanks
[03:35] <Tom47> KomiaPoika: which *buntu are you using?
[03:35] <lalo> eep... my firefox is borked... some extensions (noticeably foxyproxy and greasemonkey) don't work at all
[03:35] <logmein> Jinesh: do apt-get install * whatever you need
[03:35] <Delirium-NL> thanks jowi
[03:35] <gp|work> Jinesh: Synaptic Package Manager.. search for Perl and install.
[03:35] <tim167> how can I show my processor type in terminal ?
[03:36] <Delirium-NL> lawl theres a program for it.. gotta love ubuntu, much easier then suse lmao
[03:36] <Jinesh> u mean it has perl
[03:36] <jrib> tim167: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[03:36] <logmein> tim167: cat /proc/cpuinfo
[03:36] <Jinesh> i just need to install it ?
[03:36] <logmein> jrib: darn beat me to it
[03:36] <Jinesh> am i right here ?
[03:36] <tim167> jrib logmein thanx :)
[03:36] <lalo> Jinesh: yes
[03:36] <erUSUL> tengil: it looks to me that the disk may be f***ed doe to the errors linux mount it read only. try to pass a fsck from a liveCD but i think that it may be a hw error
[03:37] <Delirium-NL> woot, works, lol
[03:37] <tim167> jrib logmein  would that also work on a mac OSX machine by any chance ?
[03:37] <tengil> erUSUL: it doesnt mount it read only from start. it worked a bit and i put some files on it then it happened
[03:37] <logmein> tim167: that sort of machine with linux installed yes
[03:37] <skulrid> I have a problem, I cant play any flash or macromedia and firefox always crashes when a page trys to play any media of that kind. I instaled adobe players, the nonfree-flash plugin, bt nothing works, what can I do?? thanks?
[03:38] <logmein> skulrid: umm you using amd64 or x86 ubuntu?
[03:38] <lalo> skulrid: are you on a 64bit ubuntu?  There's no flash for 64bit
[03:38] <skulrid> x86 (i guess lol)
[03:38] <Zenerek> ok, well the best depends on your cpu, wither it's amd or intel and it's power, but you use synaptic package manager to browse for it, search for kernel and read the descriptions, it will tell you what each kernel is, i mean what kernel is for what cpu
[03:39] <logmein> skulrid: do cat /proc/cpuinfo and see what sort of cpu you have
[03:39] <KomiaPoika> Tom47: kubuntu 7.04
[03:39] <skulrid> intel
[03:39] <jrib> skulrid: can you see https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/14911 and try the *two* workarounds listed there
[03:39] <noelferreira> Jowi: can you be more specific?
[03:40] <Jinesh> i want to get very familiar with ubuntu as much as i am with windows
[03:40] <erUSUL> tengil: yes when the disk (or controller) or whatever started failing linux did the remount ro...
[03:40] <Jinesh> can anyone suggest me what shoudl i do or begin with
[03:40] <skulrid> logmein lalo, the thing is that I used to see youtube videos, flash aplications etc, but (on miniclip for example) some macromedia failed (no plugin it said) and then I tryed to install some plugins thats when evering stops working
[03:40] <tengil> erUSUL: so since i changed controller twice on that harddrives that messes its quite likely a harddrive failure?
[03:41] <jakub_> hi all, please help, I cannot login: my X says it cannot write to /tmp
[03:41] <Jowi> noelferreira, about what?
[03:41] <jakub_> I freed some 7MB on / already, but no change
[03:41] <ExIG> anyone good with firefox?
[03:41] <Zenerek> wips: you may want to get a kernel that matches your current version to avoid problems
[03:41] <noelferreira> sharing files Jowi
[03:41] <Jinesh> y is anyone not replying to me ???
[03:42] <noelferreira> betwen two ubuntu systems
[03:42] <jrib> Jinesh: what is your question?
[03:42] <Jinesh> i want to get very familiar with ubuntu as much as i am with windows
[03:42] <Jowi> noelferreira, not really. i don't use gnome. you should be able to right click on a folder/file in nautilus and select share.
[03:42] <Jinesh> can anyone suggest me what shoudl i do or begin with
[03:42] <erUSUL> tengil: i do think so... i will backup important files just in case... check if the cables are well connected etc (if you messed recently with them)
[03:43] <noelferreira> thansl
[03:43] <jrib> Jinesh: start by reading the docs at help.ubuntu.com, then move on to what the bot is about to send you
[03:43] <jrib> !cli > Jinesh (see the private message from ubotu)
[03:43] <jrib> Jinesh: depending on how much you want to know, be sure to check out the rute book linked at the bottom of the cli wiki page, the docs at tldp.org, and debian manuals...
[03:44] <DJ-_-> umm...where is network folder option in Xfce Interface?
[03:44] <Zenerek> Jinesh: try searching for ubuntu guide, it's a site that has info on various topics, there are also two books out there (have em both)
[03:46] <sql_hesw> Hey All, Is there any light weight browser for ubuntu ( i feel firefox is high on resources)
[03:46] <Tom47> jinish have you installed ubuntu?
[03:46] <Jinesh> yes i have
[03:46] <Frederick> wich is the command in apt to purge dead packages?
[03:46] <Frederick> I got no man :/
[03:46] <mc44> !info epiphany | sql_hesw
[03:46] <ubotu> sql_hesw: epiphany: clone of Boulder Dash game. In component universe, is optional. Version 0.5.1-4 (feisty), package size 63 kB, installed size 236 kB
[03:47] <skulrid> how do I edit a text file on etc/... ?
[03:47] <KomiaPoika> is openoffice broken on kubuntu 7.04??
[03:47] <mc44> eep
[03:47] <lalo> wrong one :-P
[03:47] <klav> !enlightenment
[03:47] <ubotu> Enlightenment (or "E") is a window manager for X, providing a useful, and good looking graphical shell in which to work. E17 is the current development version.
[03:47] <chaoslynx> how can i change the default version of automake?
[03:47] <lalo> Frederick: autoremove?
[03:47] <Tom47> Jinesh: then the very best place to start is exploring Help & Support / About Gnome / About Ubuntu right up there under System
[03:48] <neil_feisty> skulrid, you can use vi or nano i prefer nano
[03:48] <Zenerek> sql_hesw well they say opera ( a must have for me) has a smaller resource footprints than firefox....hard to believe with all it does....
[03:48] <ubuntu-rocks> skulrid - nano /etc/filename (provided you have nano and have permission to modify that file)
[03:48] <DJ-_-> how do i find a windows shared folder in Xubuntu
[03:48] <_ADaRKnInJA> Hello ALL wizards of INSTALL UBUNTU - I need a HELP
[03:48] <clehmann> chaoslynx:  man update-alternatives
[03:48] <lalo> sql_hesw: epiphany, or galeor

[03:48] <user9> Pleasse help..   I am trying to install a pci wireless card using ndiswrapper and I caannot find a good site that guides me through the process. Does anyone have a link to a guided site or have a clue on how to do this?
[03:48] <wols_> DJ-_-: smbclient -L <ip of windows box>
[03:48] <KomiaPoika> DJ-_-: install samba and surf to smb://addressofshared
[03:48] <mrsn0> both browsers are good, but opera uses less resources for doing similar amount of workloads ive found
[03:49] <mrsn0> maybe they allocated ram differently, i dont know
[03:49] <DJ-_-> wol_ any GUI method?
[03:49] <DJ-_-> wols_*
[03:49] <mc44> user9: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/internet/C/connect-to-internet.html#wireless-ndiswrapper
[03:49] <lalo> opera is non-free, so I'd certainly not recommend it
[03:49] <DJ-_-> KamiaPoika: thanks but I prefer a GUI ths time
[03:50] <wols_> DJ-_-: apt-cache search samba browser
[03:50] <hellogoodbye> anyone ever had videos refuse to play in any app in feisty?
[03:50] <sql_hesw> lalo: i run 64 bit ubuntu is there any way to get the flash working?
[03:50] <DJ-_-> wols_ thanks
[03:50] <wols_> KomiaPoika: xubunut doesn't have filemanager as gnome and kde do
[03:50] <mc44> user9: are you having a specific problem with it?
[03:50] <wols_> !flash | sql_hesw
[03:50] <ubotu> sql_hesw: To install Flash see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats/Flash - Flash 9 is now available in dapper-backports and edgy-backports - See also !Restricted and !Gnash
[03:50] <wols_> sql_hesw: there are ways. mostly complicated ones

[03:51] <_ADaRKnInJA> Hello ALL wizards of INSTALL UBUNTU - I need a HELP
[03:51] <mc44> _ADaRKnInJA: just ask your question :)
[03:51] <lalo> wols: no file manager?  What is Thunar then?
[03:51] <sql_hesw> wols_: i got 32 bit opera with flash, but i find the videos choppy
[03:51] <sql_hesw> frame by frame
[03:51] <wols_> lalo: no filemanager that understands smb://
[03:51] <lalo> ah ok!  :-)
[03:51] <lalo> xffm used to :-( they're yet to add that to Thunar
[03:51] <Jinesh> Thank you every one for all the help
[03:52] <DJ-_-> wols_ is there another way? like in gnome i had  network browser or something
[03:52] <Jinesh> i ll come back whenever i ll need more help
[03:52] <hellogoodbye> best ubuntu bittorrent client?
[03:52] <saxin> hellogoodbye: Deluge maybe
[03:52] <lalo> "best" is a matter of taste
[03:52] <hellogoodbye> ok thanks, il check it out
[03:52] <sql_hesw> utorrent on Wine is the BEST
[03:53] <lalo> I prefer rtorrent, but it's not GUI, it's curses
[03:53] <DJ-_-> wols_: i have gnome on the hard but i used xfce....so would there be a network browser already on the system? if so how can i find it
[03:53] <chaoslynx> clehmann: Is there no easier way? Somehow "automake" invokes automake version 1.1 while i would like it to be at least 1.9
[03:53] <lalo> then maybe azureus
[03:53] <wols_> DJ-_-: can't you read?
[03:53] <sql_hesw> lalo: can i run rtorrent on command line?
[03:53] <_ADaRKnInJA> ok, mc44 : How to install UBUNTU ( 3 modes : Desktop, AlternateCD, Server ) by none ISO CD copy, using VMWARE ?
[03:53] <visual> i use bittorent-curses...
[03:53] <DJ-_-> wols_ maybe I am lagging after all
[03:53] <sql_hesw> and does it support DHT and all those stuff?
[03:53] <lalo> sql_hesw: yes
[03:53] <lalo> sql_hesw: no DHT
[03:53] <Zenerek> mrsn0 yeah i've been using it since v7, with all it does it's hard to belive you and me are one of the few 4 percent that use it, anyway i really loved the titanium 7 skin,used it in v8 too, wish someone would make it for v9
[03:53] <wols_> DJ-_-: I doubt it's your inet connection that lags
[03:54] <sql_hesw> lalo: then wouldnt that restrict the speed?
[03:54] <DJ-_-> wols_: well thanks for your help
[03:54] <lalo> hmm, no
[03:54] <hellogoodbye> As of Feisty, Deluge is in Ubuntu's universe repository. DO NOT INSTALL THIS VERSION - any idea why that is anyone?
[03:54] <mrsn0> Zenerek indeed, while its indeed non-free at least there are .debs released and i dont mind manually updating it
[03:54] <lalo> DHT has little to do with speed, it has to do with badly-seeded torrents
[03:54] <mc44> _ADaRKnInJA: eh? you want to install ubuntu in VMware but not using a cd? (no need to use so many capitals)
[03:54] <sql_hesw> ok, I use utorrent with wine, But i find it using a lot of memory and CPU
[03:54] <mrsn0> another choice is epiphany browser which is based on ff/mozilla but much more lightweight
[03:54] <lalo> for my day-to-day usage, not having DHT is a feature
[03:54] <michaelpo> how do i turn off or make linux use more memory instead of swap? i have 1gb memory, but it goes to 60%, and linux start using swap... do i turn off the swap?
[03:54] <chaoslynx> clehmann:ok thx i figured it out =)
[03:55] <DJ-_-> wols_: u better add this to helping other people out: in xfce in computer you click go--network which is much easier and thx for da hel;p
[03:56] <DJ-_-> help*
[03:56] <xukun> what is a good burning software for ubuntu feisty?

[03:57] <Tom47> xukun nautilus works just fine
[03:57] <Zenerek> mrsn0: it's one of the things that's made my walk into linux easier having my browser here, and for firewall firestarter, utorrent with wine for torrents, heck i even got winrar working with wine
[03:57] <saxin> jakub_: clear /tmp mmaybe :)
[03:57] <wols_> jakub_: du /var. how mcuh is it?
[03:57] <mrsn0> brr welll i dont go quite that far Zenerek :-) i only use wine for poker client
[03:57] <jakub_> saxin how do I do that, what is command for deleting?
[03:57] <mrsn0> everything else is native
[03:57] <wols_> saxin: bad advice
[03:57] <chaoslynx> cyberpunk69: I think it is possible if you use thunderbird or any other email program
[03:58] <saxin> wols_: why?
[03:58] <jakub_> wols_a long lonmg list
[03:58] <osfameron> I thought hotmail was its own specific protocol that only Outlook Express knew how to talk to?
[03:58] <cyberpunk69> there seems to not be any pop3 support
[03:58] <mrsn0> cyberpunk69 thunderbird + the hotmail / webmail extension works quite fine for hotmail/yahoo accounts

[04:06] <craigbass1976> jakub_, I've not use FC since 5.  I got sick of getting a new OS so often, but FC1 the first distro that I used extensively and cut my teeth on.
[04:07] <skulrid> why cant I use bigger resolutions than I used to use in windowsxp ?
[04:08] <craigbass1976> jakub_, in case some joker messes with you, rm -rf /* is bad.
[04:08] <DJ-_-> can a large hosts file slow down ubuntu
[04:08] <DJ-_-> craigbass1976: more dan bad i guess
[04:08] <jakub_> craigbass1976  awigh
[04:09] <DJ-_-> !rm -rf
[04:09] <craigbass1976> jakub_, awigh?  Is that an acronym?
[04:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about rm -rf - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:09] <DJ-_-> !hosts
[04:09] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hosts - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[04:09] <jakub_> craigbass1976 just alright
[04:09] <DJ-_-> does anyone know whether a large hosts file would slow ubuntu down?
[04:09] <craigbass1976> jakub_, it would wipe your root filesystem
[04:10] <jakub_> craigbass1976 i found a whole movie on my root, that might help to save some space
[04:10] <craigbass1976> DJ-_-, do you suspect that your's is?  Try backing up your host file and pearing down the original and see what happens
[04:10] <DJ-_-> craigbass1976: just doubted it as it happens in windows unless you disable the dns client,...And i will try that
[04:11] <_StefanS_> anyone know how to build the kernel modules for alsa?
[04:11] <Tom47> DJ-_-: are you referrinf to /etc/hosts? and if so what is making it large?
[04:11] <craigbass1976> jakub_, right, but you would just rm movie.file
[04:11] <DJ-_-> Tom47: yeah, I added some ad sites and its around 550+kb rite now
[04:12] <Zenerek> ok i gotta go
[04:12] <_ADaRKnInJA> Who here is WIZARD of UBUNTU Install ? Please HELP
[04:12] <Tom47> DJ-_-: try craigbass1976's suggestion i reckon
[04:12] <DJ-_-> _ADaRKninJA: list your problem if anyone knows the solution they will help
[04:12] <craigbass1976> _ADaRKnInJA, what's up?

[04:13] <_ADaRKnInJA> Dear DJ - I want to Instal the 3 types of UBUNTU : Desktop, AlternateCD, and Server, under XPsp2, without
[04:13] <_ADaRKnInJA> to use a boot cd drive, by using the software : VMware. Is it possible ? and how ?
 Do you know a LINK-SITE of instructions about this ?
 Because I burned 2 DVD disks, but the DOS asks me to PUT a disk * A:\ *, but I dont use diskette
[04:14] <_ADaRKnInJA> A , for any, than it is impossible to I Install
[04:14] <lasking> anybody could help me?
[04:14] <wols_> adam: just mount the ISOs
[04:14] <mc44> _ADaRKnInJA: you can download images for vmware from here http://isv-image.ubuntu.com/vmware/
[04:14] <Tom47> !ask | lasking
[04:14] <ubotu> lasking: Don't ask to ask a question. Just ask your question :)
[04:14] <DJ-_-> -ADaRKninJA: well do what mc44_ suggests
[04:14] <Dr_willis> _ADaRKnInJA,  theres no point in installing from the desktop and the alternatecd. They install the same thing.
[04:15] <Jinesh> ADaRKninJA: just create a linux vm while doing so select ubuntu
[04:15] <lasking> please install the build and header files for your current linux kernel   i can't install vbox gusetaddtion in my fc guest
[04:15] <Jinesh> and then insert ubuntu CD and start your linux vm
[04:15] <DJ-_-> _ADaRKninJA: or you can try getting pre-configured ones from the vmware site
[04:15] <Jinesh> click on install icon on desktop
[04:15] <Tom47> lasking sudo apt-get install build-essentials
[04:15] <Jinesh> exit
[04:15] <Jinesh> quit
[04:16] <DJ-_-> lol
[04:16] <gilster> hell all
[04:16] <lasking> install build-essentials in fc?
[04:16] <wols_> Tom47: that won't install kernel headers afaik
[04:16] <craigbass1976> noelferreira, something like scp local.file.txt 192.168.2.43:/home/noel/  would copy the local.file.txt from your current box to the one with the ip.
[04:16] <wols_> lasking: in ubuntu
[04:16] <craigbass1976> Oh, he quit
[04:16] <wols_> lasking: and fc questions are OT in here
[04:16] <mc44> lasking: we don't know about fedora here :)
[04:17] <craigbass1976> No wonder tab name completion didn't work.
[04:17] <lasking> my ubuntu had it   i install fc in vbox
[04:17] <wols_> lasking: we don't care. you ask a fc question which is OT here
[04:17] <Plantain> How much effort is it to install Ubuntu to an external HD on a PPC iBook?

[04:22] <MarkusT> I'm stuck with supporting question #7536 (https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+question/7536). I'm totally unaware what might be the problem of this user. He's getting "unauthenticated" messages from update-manager in feisty. He has all needed gpg keys, his install history seems "right", the only problem is that update-manager left the edgy repositories in sources.list, but that should not be the problem since all updates installed are fetched fr
[04:22] <Frederick> folks how ca nI find my jdk path?
[04:22] <craigbass1976> Frederick, which java maybe
[04:23] <_ADaRKnInJA> DJ and mc44 .... Please.... answer
[04:23] <craigbass1976> Frederick, is this Sun's java, or one from a linux repo?
[04:23] <Frogzoo> Frederick: 'which java'
[04:23] <Frederick> craigbass1976: suns
[04:24] <mc44> _ADaRKnInJA: they are virtual machines made for vmware instead of being CD images
[04:24] <craigbass1976> Frederick,  Ok.  How did you install it?
[04:24] <Frogzoo> Frederick: actually, echo $CLASSPATH
[04:24] <Frogzoo> Frederick: also, man java
[04:24] <Frederick> Frogzoo: it is empty
[04:24] <Frederick> craigbass1976: I dont remmember
[04:24] <gnomefreak> grayscale: to find it try locate java
[04:24] <gnomefreak> Frederick: ^^^
[04:24] <gnomefreak> not grayscale
[04:24] <_ADaRKnInJA> Wowwwww, many thanks, mc44 - I ll try these ZIPS
[04:25] <gnomefreak> Frederick: patch should be something like /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0.06/jre/lib/i386/
[04:26] <mc44> _ADaRKnInJA: you can always ask for help in #ubuntu-br if you don't understand what people in here are saying :)
[04:27] <_ADaRKnInJA> Another QUESTION: may I instal all the 3 modes - zips- Desktop, Alternate , abd Server, IN a SAME partion of my HD ?
[04:27] <persia> Is there an IRC channel for the Ubuntu Debian Collaboration Team?
[04:27] <Frederick> gnomefreak:  Ifound it thanks a lor
[04:28] <Frederick> lot
[04:31] <_ADaRKnInJA> mc44, please answer that last question on the private...

[04:32] <Plantain> Has it become any easier in recent versions of Ubuntu to install on an external FireWire harddrive of a Mac (PPC) ?
[04:32] <_ADaRKnInJA> Another QUESTION: may I instal all the 3 modes - zips- Desktop, Alternate , and SERVER 704
 Server, IN a SAME partition of my HD ?
[04:33] <DJ-_-> :P
[04:33] <Plantain> I think the old way was to dig around with yaboot.conf, and compiling a modified kernel from the installer DVD :S
[04:33] <craigbass1976> I'm in the middle of a text install.  I have this feeling that all will not be well.  The visible screen is a lot smaller than the actual screen.
[04:33] <mc44> _ADaRKnInJA: the desktop and the alternate installs are the same, it just uses a different installer
[04:33] <craigbass1976> But I guess as long as I can get it on there, at least I can mess with xorg.conf
[04:33] <mc44> _ADaRKnInJA: and you can have as many vmware images on one partition as you want
[04:34] <_ADaRKnInJA> ahhh, ok, - and about ALSO the SERVER 704 ???
[04:35] <xukun> is there other good burning software except nautilus?

[04:36] <xukun> Frogzoo, anything else because that will install a lot of kde things

[04:37] <cached> can someone help me with my printer now?
[04:38] <cached> it's a local laserjet priner
[04:38] <xukun> can I make gnomebaker  the default burning software and change from nautilus?

I have been trying to add the lynksis wmp54g card to my system with absolutely no success.  I went to synaptic and added ndiswrapper and ndisgtk but it wil not work.  What am I doing wrong please!!!!
[04:39] <_ADaRKnInJA> mc44, if I am able to install the DESKTOP and SERVER 704, in the same partition HD ?
[04:39] <craigbass1976> cached, I guess the tutorial was no good?
[04:40] <mc44> _ADaRKnInJA: you can if you are using a vmware image, but not if you are installing them properly
[04:40] <ManaPirat> user9 calme down :) ...
[04:40] <mc44> user9: well calm down first :) What "does not work"?
[04:40] <Ahadiel> _ADaRKnInJA: Basically, 7.04 Server Edition doesn't have the package ubuntu-desktop
[04:40] <craigbass1976> user9, don't feel bad.  Linux wireless is still dicey at best with some cards
[04:40] <Ahadiel> or gnome-desktop, or something like that
[04:40] <KrvheD> Hello! everybody!
[04:40] <ManaPirat> ndswrapper, hum i got it working a year ago but windows drivers are .. well .. windows drivers

[04:41] <craigbass1976> the who command I think
[04:41] <ManaPirat> Linux wireless cann be verry good if you have the right hardware. Maybe google or post on ubuntu forums where more people can find your specific driver Problem

[04:41] <KrvheD> hey! where are you from?
[04:41] <cached> craigbass1976: yep

[04:42] <ManaPirat> hi KrvheD
[04:42] <cached> craigbass1976: then it disappears from the queue
[04:42] <KrvheD> =D!
I try to do research on my own because I know no one helps those who do not help themselves but I have gone through every page I could and I do not understand why this pc will not recognize my card.  I have been aT IT for 4 hours

[04:43] <_ADaRKnInJA> mc44 - LAST LAST question:  Are KUBUNTU and/or UBUNTU 704 : the same way easier to INSTAL - and or OPERATE ? What are main differences : KUBUNTU  x UBUNTU ?
[04:43] <ManaPirat> or write to thie rmailinglist. maybe somebody will tell you how to debug your driver issue
[04:43] <KrvheD> =P!!
[04:44] <KrvheD> Kubuntu is for server
[04:44] <mc44> _ADaRKnInJA: thats a very big question :)
[04:44] <Ahadiel> _ADaRKnInJA: Only one Difference.
[04:44] <cached> craigbass1976: I had to run cat /usr/share/foo2zjs/firmware/sihp1020.dl > /dev/usblp0
[04:44] <gnomefreak> _ADaRKnInJA: kde and gnome are the differences they are pretty much the same to install

 now when I go to system/administration/windows wireless drivers it comes up and then goes away.  I have been trying to get this lynksys wireless card recognized forever.  According to the pages I read it is suppose to be compatible with ubuntu
[04:45] <gnomefreak> _ADaRKnInJA: than you can choose the on eyou want to use from the login screen
[04:45] <Ahadiel> gnomefreak: Seriously? You can have KDE and Gnome install on the same distro?
[04:45] <gnomefreak> yes
[04:46] <gnomefreak> Ahadiel: also edubuntu xubuntu
[04:46] <_ADaRKnInJA> mc44 : this will be my first INSTALL of a LINUX

[04:46] <craigbass1976> cached, there's a little tutorial on linuxprinting.org what that very command
[04:46] <Ahadiel> gnomefreak: So if I'm already running ubuntu-desktop, I can just sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop?

[04:46] <ubotu> Ahadiel: k/ed/x/ubuntu-desktop is a metapackage. It depends upon other packages and brings them in; you can safely remove it, but it is recommended that you re-install it when upgrading.

[04:48] <mc44> user9: ok if it doesn't say "device present" it means you haven't got the right driver installed

[04:58] <UbunTITTIES> ok, i feel her first fish of the men would call a buddy to go directly home with mom gone
[04:58] <magicrobotmonkey> Tom47: yea too bad
[04:59] <ijk> Is this a bug? I'm installing ubuntu7 but the partitioner won't let me make larger partitions than 39144MB. Any hints?
[04:59] <PriceChild> UbunTITTIES, not in here thankyou.
[04:59] <UbunTITTIES> a bad girl, chelsea, it was quickly becoming sticky from the back wall .
[04:59] <UbunTITTIES> much larger, it's what my 18 ijk sister is making me come ...
[04:59] <PriceChild> ijk, is that fat32?
[04:59] <UbunTITTIES> anyone here having gcc & nasm, and dawn had gone back to the door .
[04:59] <craigbass1976> Oh, I just got the name UbunTITTIES
[04:59] <UbunTITTIES> your name ?
[04:59] <ijk> PriceChild: no ext3
[04:59] <user9> mc44 what was the command agin?
[04:59] <Watchman_> hey guys, whats the diffference between, Linux Low Latency and Linux Generic on the grub screen?
[04:59] <mc44> user9: lspci -vv
[04:59] <craigbass1976> knucklehead...
[04:59] <PriceChild> ijk, not a clue...
[04:59] <ijk> =/
[04:59] <PriceChild> Watchman_, to have lowlatency you must have installed it manually ;)
[05:00] <_ADaRKnInJA> Does anybody say - what are the best MANUALS for START LINUX 1st time ?  2 options only I know : http://br.bozolinux.org/guia/ - and : http://focalinux.cipsga.org.br/
[05:00] <Watchman_> and what low latency does?
[05:00] <user9> I am sorry. Can I paste all that here?
[05:00] <PriceChild> Watchman_, people like extreme audio video encoders use it

[05:02] <keith> !botsnack
[05:02] <ubotu> Yum! Err, I mean, APT!
[05:02] <Watchman_> i installed Ubuntu studio and the low latency stuff is prompted to me on the grub...maybe the codec stuff and being a multimedia distro...explains all
[05:02] <keith> ubuntu studio? designed for AV work?
[05:02] <picochu> Watchman_: that's what ubuuntu studio is for
[05:03] <mc44> user9: don't paste in here please
[05:03] <Watchman_> right PriceChild?
[05:03] <Fuzz> thats good specs
[05:03] <PriceChild> Watchman_, yeah :)
[05:03] <Frogzoo> Watchman_: I'm thinking low latency is for real time/fast interrupt handling - though would like to know for sure
[05:03] <user9> where do I paste it
[05:03] <PriceChild> user9, please read the pm from ubotu
[05:03] <Lumiere> does anyone know a good bluetooth in ubuntu howto?
[05:03] <mc44> user9: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org
[05:03] <Watchman_> so if i want a "full" experience i should choose lowlatency
[05:03] <Frogzoo> !bluetooth
[05:03] <PriceChild> !bluetooth > Lumiere (see pm from ubotu)
[05:03] <ubotu> For instructions on how to set up bluetooth, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BluetoothSetup
[05:03] <Lumiere> PriceChild: thanks
[05:03] <picochu> anyway low latency patches are also used for systems with real-time requirements
[05:04] <stm502> !bluetooth
[05:04] <Fuzz> uhm can someone help me share a printer with ubuntu feisty 7.04 and winxp?
[05:04] <Buttonboy> Can anyone help me with Samba?
[05:04] <Watchman_> so picochu...being a designer, i should make the low latency as the default choice
[05:04] <picochu> fuzz is the printer on a windows or unbutu machine?
[05:04] <Fuzz> on ubuntu
[05:04] <picochu> Watchman_: designer is vague... exactly what do you use it for?
[05:05] <Frogzoo> Watchman_: for desktop use, no
[05:05] <user9> mc44 ok done
[05:05] <matthew1429> !fstab
[05:05] <mc44> user9: ok, I need the link :)
[05:05] <ubotu> The /etc/fstab file indicates how drive partitions are to be used or otherwise integrated into the file system. See http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/fstab.html and !Partitions
[05:05] <Watchman_> graphics, web, sometimes sound, sometimes video
[05:05] <tyler_d> could anyone recommend fax software?
[05:05] <Fuzz> no faxing is for sissies
[05:05] <user9> mc44 http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24592/
[05:05] <Fuzz> XD
[05:05] <Buttonboy> !samba
[05:05] <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
[05:06] <user9> mc44 thank you
[05:06] <tyler_d> Fuzz: thats excellent.... thanks for comming out
[05:06] <picochu> watchman low latency is not really needed for your then. prolly pre-emtive multitasking would be better
[05:06] <Frogzoo> tyler_d: apt-cache search fax
[05:06] <mc44> user9: ok can you also paste lspci -n
[05:06] <tyler_d> Frogzoo: searched... tried a few.... looking for one that specifically handles mass faxing
[05:06] <Watchman_> so Frogzoo, whats the idea? If not desktop use..so what for? Desktop use = mere mortal use (email, word processor, etc)?
[05:07] <tyler_d> Frogzoo: others came up with errors...
[05:07] <Watchman_> so picochu, the right choice in my case is the GENERIC option?
[05:07] <neverblue> how can I change my theme to the default "human" theme, via command line?
[05:07] <line72> class, bbl
[05:08] <Frogzoo> tyler_d: you should consider hylafax - it's quite mature
[05:08] <picochu> Watchman_: yeap... low latency wont matter to you
[05:08] <DJ-_-> question: when i try to copy files from a xp pc's shared folder and try to paste in my home folder it says nothing to paste from clipboard
[05:08] <tyler_d> Frogzoo: ty I will give that a shot
[05:08] <GlacierBill> Has anyone had problems with 7.04, for some reason I can not access my users, network connections, time or many other administrator apps that use gksu
[05:08] <samuel> sup all
[05:08] <Watchman_> ok thanx folks
[05:08] <samuel> where can i put something to run once on boot?
[05:08] <Frogzoo> samuel: /etc/rc.local
[05:08] <neverblue> GlacierBill, I am also having problems, but not exactly the same as you

I appologize I am totally new to all of this.  I am usually a windows guy but am trying to migrate.  I will look more in depth on the proitocols here.  Sorry. :(
[05:12] <freakboysystem> thankyou
[05:12] <GlacierBill> cli?? Just the standard packages for now
[05:12] <tyler_d> Frogzoo: doesn't support an internal modem :(
[05:12] <DK_II> volumes_visible
[05:12] <PriceChild> user9, no problem. :)
[05:13] <neverblue> GlacierBill, cli is short for command line
[05:13] <unbuntuish> anyone know why title bar disappears after enabling desktop effects?
[05:13] <Hultiz> how do i put timestamps on messages in xchat?
[05:13] <neverblue> are you running those from the command line...
[05:13] <cotik> hey!!
[05:13] <SirBob1701> anyone know how to reset the e17 theme in the terminal?
[05:13] <SirBob1701> i forgot the dang command
[05:13] <neverblue> Hultiz, there is a timestamp under Settings--> Preference
[05:13] <neverblue> how can I change my theme to the default "human" theme, via command line?
[05:14] <GlacierBill> No, not at this time, I am used to Fedora
[05:14] <neverblue> GlacierBill, cli will give you alot more results if your trying to debug
[05:14] <cotik> please tell me how i can open an application from a terminal in the "background" meaning that when i close the terminal the application still works
[05:14] <neverblue> ex. will tell you why your app isnt working
[05:14] <neverblue> cotik, command &
[05:14] <PriceChild> unbuntuish, probably because your card won't do the effects or your system isn't set up correctly. /join #ubuntu-effects
[05:14] <GlacierBill> I know the commands are the same, but I am just a little frustrated for now, i went out to demo Ubuntu to a school and all went up in smoke, Argh
[05:14] <mrsn0> cotik apt-get install screen , man screen
[05:14] <samuel> cotik: use & at the end
[05:14] <user9> mc44 Are you still there I hope :)
[05:14] <neverblue> GlacierBill, :/
[05:15] <mrsn0> very useful little application, or you can use & at the end as well
[05:15] <Frogzoo> tyler_d: not really a fax issue - it's a driver/winmodem issue
[05:15] <samuel> cotik: then exit the term
[05:15] <ALMimoni> hi, azureus close himself after opening, how can I fix it?
[05:15] <Hultiz> neverblue, i cant find it :/ i only find where to enable them in logs
[05:15] <Frogzoo> !winmodem > tyler_d
[05:15] <pike_> cotik: use the nohup command like nohup gedit &
[05:15] <samuel> cotik: using the exit command
[05:15] <neverblue> Hultiz, look harder, I cannot "look" for you
[05:15] <neverblue> oh wait
[05:15] <mc44> user9: yes, your card is a ralink RT61, i don't think you need to use ndiswrapper
[05:15] <neverblue> time stamp?
[05:15] <cotik> ive tried it
[05:15] <cotik> it doesnt work
[05:15] <PriceChild> mc44, they "should" work fine those cards ;)
[05:15] <neverblue> Interface-> Text box
[05:15] <mc44> PriceChild: hmm, what should?
[05:16] <user9> mc44 I tried it without anything before but it never picked up my network?
[05:16] <GlacierBill> I told them there wasn probably an error in the Install on my laptop and got another demo secheduled for next week
[05:16] <PriceChild> mc44, rt61 should be fine otb
[05:16] <neverblue> GlacierBill, ? your losing me
[05:16] <mc44> PriceChild: what interface should it come up with ra0?
[05:16] <PriceChild> mc44, yeah, or something like rausb0 if its usb
[05:16] <Frogzoo> cotik: 'nohup appn' works, but I use deskbar to launch apps
[05:16] <Hultiz> neverblue, i looked through it several times and it was right in front of my nose ;P ty
[05:16] <cotik> command & doesnt seem to be wroking
[05:17] <cotik> how do i use it?
[05:17] <neverblue> Hultiz, np :)
[05:17] <mc44> user9: can you pastebin "ifconfig" please

[05:19] <GlacierBill> I installed 7.04 on my Gateway laptop, all worked good, I went to the school for a demp to get them to install Ubuntu on there computers for the students and was showing them how to add users, and that section failed, the screen came up but I could not add users, it just locked up

[05:20] <user9> mc44 I do not know why I keep getting kicked.
[05:20] <Buttonboy> thats just how i am
[05:20] <neverblue> GlacierBill, not sure why you added in that you installed it on your laptop :)
[05:20] <neverblue> how can I change my theme to the default "human" theme, via command line?
[05:20] <Frogzoo> GlacierBill: trying to install linux on unknown hardware won't always work, as you've discovered
[05:21] <user9> I am trying to comply.  !pastebin | user9
[05:21] <rambo3> was laptop  in hibernation  prior to that?
[05:21] <Tom47> GlacierBill was this an unmodified ubuntu iso you were using?
[05:21] <GlacierBill> I told tehm I would be back this next week and show them the system again, at home I noticed that several functions in X failed, and they all used gksu.
[05:21] <user9> mc44 Still There? :)
[05:21] <neverblue> reinstall?
[05:22] <RabidWeezle> what's the xorg.cfg keyboard code for US English standard 101 keyboard?
[05:22] <GlacierBill> Yes, Unmodified, and the system did work properly for several test here before I left for the school
[05:22] <rambo3> i've had gksudo problem on debian testing but not on ubuntu stable
[05:23] <RabidWeezle> as in, I need to find out what X calls the US English keyboard
[05:23] <neverblue> GlacierBill, why not just use a Live CD?
[05:23] <Blueeye> who knows where is the python interpreter ?
[05:23] <GlacierBill> I did try the gksudo caoand also, but same thing
[05:23] <user9> mc44 are you still there or did you give up on me?
[05:23] <mc44> user9: yep. I haven't had much experince setting up ralink cards, so I suggest you try this guide: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=419709
[05:23] <RabidWeezle> is anyone here using an american english keyboard?
[05:24] <hilltop> Blueeye, python           at a consol prompt
[05:24] <neverblue> how can I change my theme to the default "human" theme, via command line? OR how can I remove the "theme" handler, so it will default back to my "human" theme?
[05:24] <Tom47> RabidWeezle: yes
[05:24] <GlacierBill> They will be installing it on there school computers for students, CD's may disapier or get warnout
[05:24] <hilltop> RabidWeezle: yes
[05:24] <Blueeye> hilltop, but in the file system ?
[05:24] <user9> mc44 I also purchased a buffalo card.  Should I try that?  I tried both but am not sure in this os how to determine if the card is recognized?
[05:25] <Blueeye> i need to configure it for the easyeclipse for python id
[05:25] <RabidWeezle> Tom47 can you please goto your /etc/X11/xorg.cfg and read me your:  Option "XkbLayout" "?" line? or anyone, for a us american 101 keyboard
[05:25] <mc44> user9: the buffalo card is usb or pci?
[05:25] <hilltop> which python                 /usr/bin/python
[05:25] <user9> pci
[05:25] <mc44> user9: then its probably easier to try setting up this card first, as you would need to install the card to find out which chipset it is using
[05:26] <ling> Anyone know how to access the migration-assistant from within ubuntu? I can't seem to find it. I'd like to import user settings, and perhaps back up my own..
[05:26] <hilltop> Blueeye, python          use which command
[05:26] <unbuntuish> anyone else have flush fails on azureus, downloading to another hdd (ntfs) ?
[05:26] <Tom47> RabidWeezle: 	Option	    "XkbLayout" "us"
[05:26] <csg95> mhgvmhhgjyhkuyuh
[05:27] <craigbass1976> I got a phone call and wasn't watching during the text install.  WHat happened that I'm now sitting at the same blank screen I saw when booting up to the regular live cd?  It's almost blank with two square dots.  Did the computer reboot?
[05:27] <RabidWeezle> thank you much Tom47
[05:27] <Blueeye> hilltop - thanks it's the correct path!
[05:27] <RabidWeezle> :)
[05:27] <Tom47> RabidWeezle: thats a pc105
[05:27] <hilltop> Blueeye, :)
[05:27] <neverblue> what "themes" called and where are they stored?
[05:27] <craigbass1976> Hard drive is spinning so I don't dare shut it down in case it wasn't done installing
[05:28] <user9> mc44 so I should shutdown and install the bufalo card and then what?
[05:28] <RabidWeezle> pc 105, roger that
[05:28] <mc44> user9: no I said you should try setting up this card first :)
[05:28] <neverblue> where are the "themes" stored ?
[05:29] <rambo3> GlacierBill, you could see with launchpad if they know

[05:45] <erUSUL> ubuntu-rocks: if its a web server and data is in /var/www/ you should move /var to its own partition, shouldn't you?
[05:45] <_ben_> rrittenhouse : there should be the original Arial font I think
[05:45] <rambo3> Stream_Space,  open termianl and type : gksudo gksudo &

[05:49] <sskroeder> Hi all ... My house is a mixed enviroment - one PC winXP, one laptop Ubuntu Feisty ... I've got a spare machine and i was planning to play around with it acting as web/ftp/file server ...
[05:49] <sskroeder> I'm not looking for a storage for /home or /Documents&Settings -- just plain storage ...
[05:49] <sskroeder> What would be the best course - just mount the drives - or set up some SAMBA ...   In the latter case - anyone got a howto ???    Thanks
[05:50] <Stream_Space> Cool same a i was looking for. Thang you werry Mutchu _ben_
[05:50] <_ben_> I migrated to Feisty recently and since, I can't activate dbus or else my network is down, does anyone knows something about it ?
[05:51] <darksaga> he guyz can anyone give me a repository that will provide gcc and g++?
[05:51] <_ben_> sskroeder : samba or nfs seems to be a good idea for what you want to do
[05:51] <gp|work> darksaga: Install build-essential
[05:51] <neverblue> well
[05:51] <darksaga> tnx
[05:51] <neverblue> I would have to admit
[05:51] <SillyZ> apt-get install build essential
[05:51] <neverblue> that was the most annoying bug
[05:51] <gp|work> no problem.
[05:52] <sskroeder> _ben_: what about the XP machine and NFS -- is that compatible (somehow) ?
[05:52] <user9> in between the <> sign.  Why do I keep getting booted?
[05:52] <mc44> user9: ok, try "sudo ifdown -a" then "sudo ifup -a" (this will disconnect you, you might want to try unplugging your ethernet first as well)
[05:53] <_ben_> hmm I'm not a XP expert (no joke inside) but I think it should be
[05:53] <brum|test> DJ-_-: what are the links opening in?
[05:53] <darksaga> is it surely build-essential
[05:53] <darksaga> ?
[05:53] <pike_> darksaga: y
[05:53] <sskroeder> _ben_: Ok ... thanks -- i'll give it a try ;-D

[05:54] <darksaga> does anyone know how do i se the list of users on this chat?

[05:55] <gp|work> darksaga: The user list is collapsed by default. Click on the bar on the right and drag it to your left.
[05:55] <pike_> dedi: there is netstat
[05:55] <craigbass1976> nitro4ce, Does this help at all? http://tgos.org/newbie/binaries4.html

[06:19] <pike_> matthew1429: gksu /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[06:19] <pike_> matthew1429: er.. gksu gedit /etc/ssh/sshd_config
[06:19] <Delirium-NL> @novato, as i just told you, you need to emulate utorrent with wine.
[06:19] <matthew1429> pike_: where can i find a list of ports NOT to choose?
[06:20] <magnetron> pike_: you can use any port you like
[06:20] <Frogzoo> matthew1429: google 'iana reserved ports'
[06:20] <magnetron> matthew1429: i mean, use any port over 1024
[06:20] <matthew1429> Frogzoo: thank you
[06:20] <matthew1429> anyone using pidgin?
[06:20] <DJ-_-> anyone know why clicking links on gaim may open up in terminal even though preferred apps are something else?
[06:20] <pike_> matthew1429: well you can make it pretty much whatever even add multiple ports like Port 22 and next line Port 123 i wouldnt use port 631 generally..
[06:20] <alaQ> matthew1429: yeah, I am.
[06:21] <matthew1429> alaQ: Are the improvements worth upgrading from GAIM
[06:21] <cyberdeath> matthew: Yes ^_^.
[06:21] <pike_> matthew1429: if youre needing to connect from work or a locked down network 443 is a common port left open
[06:21] <alaQ> matthew1429: IMHO, it's got a better plugin base, and the new artwork is a bit nicer, but nothing really different from gaim2.0
[06:21] <Tudot> I am attempting to use Internet DJ Console for online audio streaming but it won't connect to the server and the mp3's sound horrible when they play but I know for a fact the files are fine. Can anyone help me with this?
[06:22] <agentnoob> got a turion64 with 32 bit OS and was wondering how to setup swiftfox :)
[06:22] <matthew1429> pike_: my idea is using a weird port so port scanners don't even get a shot at the login
[06:22] <matthew1429> is that good thinking or necessary?
[06:22] <ManaPirat> what is swiftbox? :)
[06:22] <Delirium-NL> swiftfox = faster version of firefox
[06:22] <Delirium-NL> i beleive the swiftfox site has an walkthrough on it
[06:22] <ManaPirat> aaah okay ;)
[06:23] <Delirium-NL> u should check that 00noob
[06:23] <agentnoob> ManaPirat: google be your friend young diamond in the rough
[06:23] <cyberdeath> Could anyone help me install Alfresco :\ ? I'm having a problem getting it to work w/Tomcat on Ubuntu 6.06LTS
[06:23] <pike_> matthew1429: generally if its not 22 the scripts wont try to connect. but ssh lets you limit the number or wrong attempts so its more of an annoyance than a danger
[06:23] <magnetron> matthew1429: use any port higher than 1024, many port scanners do not check those ports. also, use good passwords and install the fail2ban package
[06:23] <ManaPirat> agent i know, i just wanted some cinversation :)
[06:23] <ManaPirat> google is .. well no lad that makes a joke
[06:23] <matthew1429> so that config file will let me reg max attempts
[06:23] <matthew1429> okay
[06:24] <matthew1429> and changing to 443 will let me probably connect in a locked down network
[06:24] <matthew1429> okay
[06:24] <magnetron> matthew1429: fail2ban package will do an IP block of computers with more than 5 failed attempts (configurable)
[06:24] <Tudot> no help again, eh? ok.
[06:24] <agentnoob> Delirium-NL: so I would have to roll my own version of it?
[06:25] <Pirate_Hunter> If I have an installer for a particular Linux could I still install it on Ubuntu i.e. Debian_GNU-linux or xandros-linux / both  contain .deb files
[06:25] <magnetron> matthew1429: that would stop the random script-kiddies
[06:25] <Delirium-NL> site says , and i quote " There is now an installer available that is distro independent. It is a script that downloads and installs Swiftfox in the /opt directory and attempts to use existing Firefox plugins. The installer is probably the best way for most users to install Swiftfox."
[06:25] <brum> matthew1429: most locked down networks will all ssh tho
[06:25] <Delirium-NL> give that a go
[06:26] <brum> matthew1429: just make sure that ALL of your accounts have strong passwords
[06:26] <agentnoob> Delirium-NL: automated installer!? but but.. that's just too easy where the fun in it :(
[06:26] <matthew1429> magnetron: is fail2ban gui?  thx for recommendation
[06:26] <michael117> I have two sound cards in my computer (on-board and PCI) and Ubuntu has chosen the on-board while I would prefer PCI. How can I change the default sound device?
[06:26] <pike_> im not sure swiftfox warrents going into /opt
[06:26] <DJ-_-> pike_: do ya know why clicking links on gaim may open up in terminal even though preferred apps are something else?
[06:26] <magnetron> matthew1429: fail2ban is just an install-and-forget
[06:26] <Delirium-NL> it's as fun as you make of it agentnoob =)
[06:26] <matthew1429> brum:  thx for advice :D
[06:26] <ubuntu-rocks> i've connected an additional hard drive to my unbuntu box, when I run fdisk, how do I know what device it is?
[06:26] <matthew1429> okay
[06:26] <Delirium-NL> get some cookies and you'll have a blast
[06:27] <Pirate_Hunter> hi everyone does anyone know
[06:27] <Pirate_Hunter> still install it on Ubuntu i.e. Debian_GNU-linux or xandros-linux / both  contain .deb files
[06:27] <pike_> DJ-_-: sorry im not very good at all within gnome
[06:27] <matthewburke> Could anyone make a suggestion for a good easy to use and install virtual machine to run windows within Ubuntu. Theres a few apps I have to use on a windows platform and would like to do it all from my Ubuntu desktop opposed to usuain a kvm or rebooting when I need access to them.
[06:27] <matthew1429> what program do you guys use for ssh from windows?
[06:27] <agentnoob> Delirium-NL: you so stole that from the gnome cookie commercial :P
[06:27] <DJ-_-> pike_: k
[06:27] <michael117> ubuntu-rocks: I'd suggest typing just mount to see what devices are mounted then ls /dev/hd* or /dev/sd* to see what is availible
[06:27] <pike_> matthew1429: putty is the king of windows clients
[06:27] <agentnoob> matthew1429: use putty
[06:27] <Delirium-NL> agentnoob : no stealing here.. that was pure me
[06:27] <dawall> yeah putty rocks
[06:27] <matthew1429> I want to try to VNC through hamachi too, what program in windows do you guys use for this?
[06:27] <matthew1429> hamachi = free vpn
[06:28] <matthew1429> !vnc
[06:28] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[06:28] <agentnoob> Delirium-NL: and peanut butter mmm those cookies the best
[06:28] <michael117> How can I change the default sound device?
[06:28] <matthew1429> hmmm.... vnc over ssh... hmmm
[06:28] <cyberdeath> For VNC? We use Ultr@VNC (ultravnc)
[06:28] <cyberdeath> VNC works fine over SSH if you tunnel through putty
[06:28] <ubuntu-rocks> thks, it was hdb
[06:28] <Pirate_Hunter> If I have an installer for a particular Linux could I still install it on Ubuntu i.e. Debian_GNU-linux or xandros-linux / both  contain .deb files
[06:28] <brum> matthew1429: any VPN going through an untrusted host (hamachi) cannot be considered private or secure
[06:28] <pike_> matthew1429: yeah for features everyone says ultravnc i use tightvnc generally
[06:28] <matthew1429> so basically enter vncviewer command through putty and I should be okY?
[06:28] <agentnoob> cyberdeath: why not tightvnc?
[06:29] <cyberdeath> Well, we actually used TightVNC too, but just changed to UltraVNC, I'm not exactly sure why :P.
[06:29] <alaQ> michael117: use 'sudo asoundconf list' to get a list of card names, and then 'sudo asoundconf set-default-card cardname'
[06:29] <pike_> matthew1429: youll run vncserver once youre ssh'd in and use a vnc client on windows
[06:29] <matthew1429> so it's a bad idea to have vnc server running all the time
[06:29] <agentnoob> matthew1429: hmm no try using stunnel with vncviewer client
[06:29] <matthew1429> okay
[06:30] <cyberdeath> Yeah, you run the vncserver and then in putty on the windows box...setup the tunnel to a localhost port. Then you'll type in vnc on the windows box: localhost:port.
[06:30] <Pirate_Hunter> please can anyone answer my question, i'm a newb and I need to install this but I just want to know if it could be installed on ubuntu
[06:30] <matthew1429> you guys have been extremeley helpful
[06:30] <cyberdeath> Well, yeah, stunnel works too :P
[06:30] <agentnoob> matthew1429: why have it run always? ssh over and tell it to run then log into it and kill the shell you were using
[06:30] <matthew1429> cool
[06:30] <matthew1429> i'll try that
[06:30] <michael117> How can I change the default sound device?
[06:30] <matthew1429> agent, thx
[06:30] <matthew1429> Pirate_Hunter: what's your ??
[06:31] <pike_> !sound | michael117
[06:31] <ubotu> michael117: If you're having problems with sound, first ensure ALSA is selected, by double clicking on the volume control, then File -> Change Device (ALSA Mixer). If that fails, see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Sound - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SoundTroubleshooting - http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=DmixPlugin - For playing audio files, see !Players and !MP3
[06:31] <Pirate_Hunter> If I have an installer for a particular Linux could I still install it on Ubuntu i.e. Debian_GNU-linux or xandros-linux / both  contain .deb files
[06:31] <soundray> Pirate_Hunter: there's always a certain risk that packages compiled for Debian or Xandros won't work on Ubuntu.
[06:31] <Pirate_Hunter> damn
[06:31] <michael117> alaQ: Sorry, didn't see yours. Thanks!
[06:31] <alaQ> michael117: no prob.
[06:31] <soundray> Pirate_Hunter: however, you will always be able to remove them, so there is very little risk in just trying.
[06:31] <Pirate_Hunter> what about Loki or red hat_madriva??
[06:31] <agentnoob> Pirate_Hunter: yes make separate partitions, you can even resize the current partition you have
[06:31] <kling0n> Pirate_Hunter: depending onj what it is you're installing
[06:32] <ubuntu-rocks> what partition type should I make my additonal drive I just added to my box? i'm going to be move /var onto this new drive
[06:32] <kling0n> Pirate_Hunter: don't mess with libc, for instance
[06:32] <Pirate_Hunter> would those work but they are php scripts and I'm nt good at using those
[06:32] <agentnoob> Pirate_Hunter: they can all share swap and work together even swap files
[06:32] <soundray> Pirate_Hunter: you can convert their rpm packages to .debs, but the risk is then even bigger
[06:32] <ubuntu-rocks> or filesystem type I guess is my question
[06:32] <MirandaFR-Invite> hallo
[06:32] <kling0n> ubuntu-rocks: ext2
[06:32] <agentnoob> Pirate_Hunter: there is also qemu and vmware for emulating one system inside the other
[06:32] <soundray> Pirate_Hunter: what software do you need to install?
[06:32] <keith> Pirate_Hunter: there's a package called 'alien' that will convert rpms to debs, if you need red hat stuff
[06:32] <Pirate_Hunter> dam thats messed I was hoping to install crossover
[06:32] <keith> but that's messy
[06:32] <kling0n> ubuntu-rocks: or ext3 if you care about journalling
[06:33] <agentnoob> ubuntu-rocks: ext3 is better
[06:33] <kling0n> prolly better to just use ext3
[06:33] <ubuntu-rocks> kling0n - tks, looking for max performance
[06:33] <MirandaFR-Invite> speak franch
[06:33] <agentnoob> ubuntu-rocks: you can change how ext3 handles its jouralling for better performance
[06:33] <kling0n> ubuntu-rocks:  in that case, i'd suggest you do some reasing on reiserfs3 as well
[06:33] <Tom47> !fr
[06:33] <ubotu> Allez a #ubuntu-fr ou #kubuntu-fr pour de l'aide et de la discussion en francais.
[06:34] <keith> ubuntu-rocks: http://fsbench.netnation.com/
[06:34] <agentnoob> kling0n: isn't that horribly buggy?
[06:34] <oriez> who can i use the keyboard command to - and + the volume, works on Windows
[06:34] <ccooke> ubuntu-rocks: what do you need to store on the filesystem?
[06:34] <soundray> Pirate_Hunter: consider running MS Office in a virtual machine
[06:34] <agentnoob> oriez: configure hot keys
[06:34] <ccooke> ubuntu-rocks: Will untrusted users be allowed to write to it?
[06:34] <kling0n> ccooke: he mentioned he was putting his /var on it
[06:34] <agentnoob> oriez: that program under services it lists make sure its on
[06:34] <tbnorth> will "ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386" executeables run in amd64 version ubutu?  They don't seem to...?
[06:34] <ccooke> ubuntu-rocks: and how much of a problem is data loss to you?
[06:34] <keith> tbnorth: no
[06:34] <agentnoob> oriez: sometimes it does work yet its very unnoticeable and you have to press multiple times
[06:35] <ccooke> (three questions, I know, but they're the core of any of these decisions)
[06:35] <prds> Hi all,
[06:35] <michael117> alaQ: So will it be implemented next time I boot or immediately because I just entered it and even tried restarting /etc/init.d/alsa-utils but I still don't hear sound
[06:35] <ubuntu-rocks> i'm stoing /var, moving it from my 10 gig drive to 120 gig drive.  data loss is not a big issue, i only care about the mysql users db
[06:35] <tbnorth> keith: thx - so you should't use amd64 if you're not sure you can get 64 bit versions of everything you'll use?
[06:35] <ubuntu-rocks> the db is just a holding place and gets purged daily
[06:35] <ccooke> kling0n: the problem is, /var is /variable :-) Could mean several different things.
[06:35] <soundray> tbnorth: try with the linux32 wrapper. You may have to install it.
[06:35] <prds> why i'm getting this message in syslog? zone localhost/IN: NS '127.0.0.1.localhost' has no address records (A or AAAA)
[06:35] <ccooke> kling0n: (that is: mail spool, news spool, other things which are important)
[06:35] <Pirate_Hunter> soundray - how much ram would a virtual machine take for MS Office
[06:36] <oriez> i did it but its work for the microphone volume, even the mute
[06:36] <agentnoob> tbnorth: I gave up on amd64 version, its too stressful. trashed entire system by installing like 3 32bit packages
[06:36] <ubuntu-rocks> this box is strictly a web server, no users
[06:36] <kling0n> ccooke: reiser3 is standard for suse i think.. and it's journaled, fast and has great support for small files
[06:36] <brum> prds: check /etc/hosts and make sure there is space between 127.0.0.1 and localhost
[06:36] <alaQ> michael117: not too sure.  (I have a PCMCIA soundcard that I hotplug - I just tell gnome to point to the one, and when it's not there, it defaults to the other)
[06:36] <kling0n> dont mind me too much though.. it's no  t my data (its all on Freebsd UFS)
[06:36] <soundray> Pirate_Hunter: don't know, I haven't tried. Not much more than Crossover, I reckon.
[06:37] <ccooke> kling0n: and yet it's *much* more fragile than ext3. And you should never use it if untrusted users are going to be able to create files on it.
[06:37] <soundray> Pirate_Hunter: are you sure you can't use OpenOffice instead?
[06:37] <ccooke> kling0n: okay. how much of a problem is restoring the machine?
[06:37] <rookiehwm> soundray, actually, a virtual machine will need enough to run the OS(presumably XP, etc.) and the app
[06:37] <rookiehwm> so at least 512 or so
[06:37] <ccooke> kling0n: er. not you, ubuntu-rocks
[06:37] <ccooke> ubuntu-rocks: okay. how much of a problem is restoring the machine?
[06:37] <Pirate_Hunter> soundray which is better Debian or RedHat or do both use the same system so it doesn't really matter if the application is intended for those systems
[06:38] <brum> Pirate_Hunter: you will have better luck installing debian pkgs over redhat
[06:38] <ubuntu-rocks> not a problem, the only data i want to keep is the users from the mysql db, everything else is dynmanic data that i don't care about
[06:38] <oriez> agentnoob: the Hotkeys is already selected
[06:38] <matthew1429> !vnc
[06:38] <ubotu> VNC is a protocol for remote desktop. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VNCOverSSH describes how to use it securely.  It works best over fast connections, otherwise look at !FreeNX
[06:39] <Pirate_Hunter> Tanx Bum Debian it is
[06:39] <yurimxpxman> is there any way to stop my bluetooth LED from blinking? I tried stopping the service, but that doesn't do it
[06:39] <ccooke> ubuntu-rocks: Right. Then if you're after speed, reiserfs is a good option.
[06:39] <oriez> agentnoob: but its seems that its have some problems
[06:39] <prds> brum: /etc/hosts file contains this line: 127.0.0.1 localhost web
[06:39] <prds> brum: Is there a problem?
[06:40] <ccooke> ubuntu-rocks: however, you should stick a database dump into cron once a day or so, backing up the users to a different drive
[06:40] <agentnoob> oriez: yeah you'll have to find where it keeps the settings and manually assign those buttons a task, can even change it if you like
[06:40] <dave_> when i enable desktop effects using nvidia-glx also, metacity closes/diappears. but when i turn desktop effects off metacity comes back. any ideas anyone?
[06:40] <brum> prds: are you running bind(dns) locally? or getting it from ISP?
[06:40] <EFing_A_> hi everyone...   has anyone ever seen this type of error:     hdd:  drive not ready for command
[06:40] <prds> brum: local
[06:40] <ubuntu-rocks> i do a daily cron job to do a full db dump that is being backed up on another box. tks
[06:41] <kling0n> bugger.. ill have to reboot... brb
[06:41] <ccooke> ubuntu-rocks: reiserfs is a very fast filesystem, but it has severe limitations. In most cases, it's actually better to use ext3. That said, I still use reiser for tasks where data integrity is much less important than speed.
[06:41] <agentnoob> ccooke: so I should partition my swap in reiser?...?
[06:41] <ubuntu-rocks> then I guess i'll play it safe and go with ext3 then
[06:42] <keith> agentnoob: swap doesn't have a filesystem
[06:42] <oriez> agentnoob: i did it on the keyboard setting but its not working on the master volume
[06:42] <ccooke> agentnoob: heh. No. swap is its own filesystem
[06:42] <dave_> when i enable desktop effects using nvidia-glx also, metacity closes/diappears. but when i turn desktop effects off metacity comes back. any ideas anyone?
[06:42] <agentnoob> ccooke: then I'll stick with my uber swap speed :)
[06:42] <Enverex> Does anyone have a link to the page explaining how to make your own .deb files from source?
[06:42] <ccooke> agentnoob: Good uses for reiserfs are a news spool, /tmp, mail spools which have external backups etc.
[06:42] <ccooke> (it's *especially* good as a news spool)
[06:43] <matthew1429> okay so just so i understand doing vnc from client (windows) through putty over ssh
[06:43] <matthew1429> I do stunnel
[06:43] <matthew1429> in terminal
[06:43] <matthew1429> and then just connect through vnc client?
[06:43] <keith> Enverex: http://www.quietearth.us/articles/2006/08/16/Building-deb-package-from-source
[06:43] <wyocracker> I feel like this is a dumb question, but when I'm in FileBrowser and I doubleclick on a folder, it doesn't open up.  Any idea why?
[06:43] <ccooke> for everything else, I'd recommend ext3 with the dir_index option set.
[06:44] <wyocracker> ...nor does a single click
[06:44] <dedi> whats a good imap server?
[06:44] <agentnoob> ccooke: what option is that?
[06:44] <matthew1429> whoops i need to install stunnel
[06:44] <ubuntu-rocks> what is the command to make my partion ext3 type on my additional drive (hdb)?
[06:44] <dedi> ubuntu-rocks:  mkfs.ext3
[06:45] <mjtunes> hi
[06:45] <agentnoob> ubuntu-rocks: or if you want the hard way fdisk
[06:45] <ccooke> agentnoob: it's a filesystem feature that tells ext3 to maintain a hashed directory index in addition to the traditional linked list. It's a cure for the massive slowdowns ext2/ext3 used to get in large directories.
[06:45] <Enverex> keith, Bad guide, the apps it uses are depreciated apparently
[06:45] <dedi> ubuntu-rocks: try gparted
[06:45] <pike_> ubuntu-rocks: its a good idea to use fdisk a few times to be comfortable with it
[06:45] <ccooke> ubuntu-rocks: I'd suggest you try gparted. It's got a decent GUI
[06:46] <mjtunes> just like to know wot proggy to use for burning films
[06:46] <ubuntu-rocks> i'm only running command line, ran fdisk to create the partition though.  ran sudo mkefs.ext /dev/hdb and it looks like it is working
[06:46] <agentnoob> ccooke: yeah like when I try to create a shortcut thunar usually loads up sbin or bin as default which makes it choke for good 20 seconds
[06:46] <brum> prds: i havent worked w/ bind(dns) in years... but i suspect there is a problem with localhost in the bind config
[06:46] <agentnoob> ccooke: how would you set that option anyway? does it take up a lot of space?
[06:46] <ccooke> agentnoob: not much, no.
[06:46] <Pirate_Hunter> How cna I save data on my second HD, it is partitioned in two parts as ext3 but I cna only see once of the partitions and not the other. On top of that I can't save anything to it
[06:46] <Enverex> keith, Ignore that
[06:47] <craigbass1976> OMG, so I waited for the hard drive to finally stop, then rebooted.  Error finding OS or something silly like that.  I now have damnslammlinux booted (off a cd which works fine--what's up with that? Why can't Ubuntu do the same?) to see what's shaking on the hard drive.
[06:47] <Toma-> I have a Partition followed by another partiton on a disk. I need to make the 2nd prarttition bigger be resising the first. is it possible with ext3?
[06:47] <Pirate_Hunter> yes it is Tom
[06:47] <ubuntu-rocks> ok, my /dev/hdb is now formatted as ext3. how do i edit /etc/fstab to make it automount as /var
[06:47] <ccooke> agentnoob: (it's "in addition" rather than "instead of" because ext3 will use the hash if it's there, but fall back to the linked list otherwise. Makes the filesystem backwards compatible
[06:47] <Pirate_Hunter> just sue soemthign like Gparted
[06:47] <Pirate_Hunter> use
[06:47] <ccooke> agentnoob: set it with tune2fs -O dir_index /dev/device
[06:47] <Toma-> I cant do it with gparted :/
[06:48] <pike_> craigbass1976: ubuntu is a nice distro but if youre having this much trouble with 6.10 and 7.04 there are other distros that might make things easier. or even just try debian
[06:48] <Pirate_Hunter> huh!! it worked for me, pop the CD in on boot and follow instructions
[06:48] <ccooke> agentnoob: you need to do a manual process on the disk to generate the indexes the first time, though
[06:48] <ferret_0567> Are there any Ubuntu developers in here?
[06:48] <Toma-> Pirate_Hunter: im in ubuntu now :)
[06:48] <craigbass1976> pike_, I want it to be easy for the girl who owns this laptop.
[06:48] <Pirate_Hunter> I have dual boot and it worked like a charm but you should do it at night time it takes long

[06:51] <keith> ferret_0567: then you're in the wrong channel ;-)
[06:51] <pike_> craigbass1976: server install then sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop

[06:54] <ferret_0567> Well...Edgy doesn't have the DBus version that breaks Compiz
[06:54] <cables> guycook, do sudo aptitude install linux-restricted-modules-`uname -r`. Beyond that I have no idea.
[06:54] <Pirate_Hunter> I can see both partitions in system>admin>disk but not in places>computer and I can't access the one that is showing
[06:54] <guycook> PriceChild, thanks hadn't thought of that since the kernel didn't update.
[06:54] <ferret_0567> During Feisty development, there must have been a patch to get Compiz to compile
[06:55] <pike_> Pirate_Hunter: youll want to gksu gedit /etc/fstab  and see if they are in there. sorry dont know gnome gui

[07:02] <lufis> actually

[07:02] <frandavid100> how can I make the session start using beryl, without even starting metacity?
[07:02] <Toma-> agentnoob: you basically login like any other ssh session then run your X programs from that shell
[07:02] <Toma-> agentnoob: obviously, you need X :D
[07:02] <Toma-> bastid_raZor: ummm let me check
[07:03] <Pirate_Hunter>  what are the drivers for canon printer i350 and canon scanner N670U
[07:03] <agentnoob> Toma: so like could I use ctrl alt f keys to switch between my desktop and the x forwarded one?
[07:03] <Toma-> bastid_raZor: 6891
[07:03] <clearzen> agentnoob: yeah, startx --:1 should start a new x session on f8
[07:03] <bastid_raZor> Toma-: that is the only port? i thought i read something about forwarding several ports?
[07:04] <Toma-> agentnoob: not sure! Ive only used it over my LAN to run programs on my Nokia 770
[07:04] <Toma-> bastid_raZor: thats the only one here
[07:04] <clearzen> agentnoob: I think it has to be a different user that starts it though
[07:04] <agentnoob> Toma: sounds like fun
[07:04] <Toma-> bastid_raZor: the latest SVN version has some awesome webcam support now
[07:04] <bastid_raZor> Toma-: nice, i thought i had the latest.. will double check. Thanks
[07:04] <Pirate_Hunter> please I need the ubuntu driver for drivers for canon printer i350 and canon scanner N670U otherwise come university term I cna't print or scan my work

[07:18] <maxagaz> agentnoob: where is this option ?
[07:18] <magnetron> DJ-_-: yep
[07:18] <DJ-_-> ok
[07:18] <EADG_> lmosher: iwconfig
[07:18] <agentnoob> maxagaz: I forget, try googling it
[07:18] <lmosher> EADG_, That's it. Thanks. I forgot :)
[07:19] <maxagaz> agentnoob: ok, thanks
[07:19] <PriceChild> shea, "sudo dpkg --configure -a" ?
[07:19] <agentnoob> maxagaz: also if your using a dual core you can speed the process up a bit by utilizing both cores in unison
[07:19] <erUSUL> Pirate_Hunter: http://www.openprinting.org/show_printer.cgi?recnum=Canon-i350 <<< it seems that you will have to work a little to make your printer work in linux :(
[07:19] <Pirate_Hunter> Yeah good news my scanner can be installed with no problems :-( bad news I would prefer the printer to be working and turboprint charges for their drives, which i ain't prepared to pay
[07:19] <maxagaz> agentnoob: how ?
[07:19] <DJ-_-> bbias
[07:19] <lmosher> EADG_, Do you know of a program to track signal and noise levels? They fluctuate and I'd like to see if I can't find the source
[07:20] <agentnoob> maxagaz: not on my usual comp else I would give you list of guides
[07:20] <Pirate_Hunter> where can I find PROPRIETARY
[07:20] <EADG_> lmosher: Yes... but like you I've forgotten, gimme a sec I need to startx.
[07:20] <Pirate_Hunter> sorry for the caps i copy & paste
[07:21] <ubuntu-rocks> anyone?
[07:21] <supervillain> anyone knows the title of the surprise book for SoC 2007 candidates this year?
[07:21] <maxagaz> agentnoob: all that is in the grub profile ?
[07:21] <guycook> Ok, I installed thunderbird 2 via synaptic on this x64 Feisty, says it's done. but can't find the program?
[07:21] <EADG_> lmosher: I have a program installed in KDE called SWScanner, it tracks sig strenfgt and plots it.
[07:22] <lmosher> EADG_, thanks! Exactly what I need. I'll check it out.
[07:22] <EADG_> n/p
[07:22] <Pirate_Hunter> how can I install turboprint
[07:23] <Pirate_Hunter> come on that's the easiest question I asked so far
[07:23] <agentnoob> guycook: hmm you using xubuntu? xfce menu is a bit odd in how it generates itself
[07:24] <agentnoob> maxagaz: yeah
[07:24] <Pirate_Hunter> oops it's meant to say how can I uninstal turboprint
[07:25] <ubuntu-rocks> did some googling, would lvm apply to me here? i'm trying to move my /var folder from 1 drive to another
[07:25] <guycook> agentnoob, I"m on ubuntu x64, I guess it's xubuntu anyway shouldn't I see a thunderbird icon in the start menu?
[07:25] <guycook> agentnoob, I hope I don't have to shutdown the vm everytime I update the ubuntu
[07:25] <Pirate_Hunter> anyone, that's the most easiest question I've asked
[07:25] <Pirate_Hunter> oops it's meant to say how can I uninstal turboprint
[07:26] <agentnoob> guycook ubuntu uses gnome
[07:26] <bastid_raZor> where does one find a SVN version? i'm not sure what SVN means
[07:26] <EADG_> Hehe, best error message I've seen in a long time; powernowd -- Go away, you are not root. Only root can run me.
[07:26] <agentnoob> guycook: no try typing thunderbird into terminal see what shows up
[07:26] <guycook> agentnoob, right, I have gnome, but I also have some proprietary windows stuff in a virtual machine too
[07:27] <agentnoob> guycook: that is isolated and of no influence upon your gnome menu lol
[07:27] <guycook> agentnoob, 'command not found' when I type thunderbird at the prompt
[07:28] <magnetron> !away > away[Selfsearche
[07:28] <agentnoob> guycook: you said you installed through synaptic right?
[07:28] <guycook> agentnoob, yes
[07:28] <agentnoob> guycook: because I remember when firefox for linux came out they just shoved bunch of files into a folder and put it to the downloads in such a rush
[07:28] <guycook> agentnoob, twice thinking I'd messed it up somehow
[07:28] <Pirate_Hunter> uninstaling turboprint anyone
[07:28] <Pirate_Hunter> someone must ahve used it
[07:29] <agentnoob> guycook: you could try the reinstall option in synaptic
[07:29] <agentnoob> guycook: you already tried that I assume?

[07:29] <guycook> agentnoob, good assumption, yes I did
[07:29] <Pirate_Hunter> oops sorry
[07:29] <Pirate_Hunter> didn't mean to annoy anyone
[07:29] <agentnoob> Pirate_Hunter: who in this day and age uses this "paper" thing you speak of?
[07:29] <SillyZ> anyone know a gdesklet that will show the usage of both processor cores on a core duo ?
[07:29] <stefg> Pirate_Hunter: there is a uninstall script for it, iirc. 'locate turboprint' mifgt find it for you
[07:30] <craigbass1976> I think my problem before was the window manager.  Why, when trying to fire up Xubuntu, is gdm starting?  Isn't that Gnome Desktop Manager?
[07:30] <Pirate_Hunter> what a description the paper thing i speak of - agent i lol at that
[07:30] <Pirate_Hunter> stefg tanx
[07:31] <agentnoob> Pirate_Hunter: if locate doesn't find it then do updatedb as root and try locate again
[07:32] <agentnoob> guycook: why is it you need thunderbird 2.0 so badly? are you trying to use those webmail extensions or such they work fine with 1.5
[07:32] <tbleek> any tips how to get sound in flash working (firefox) on amd64?
[07:33] <wols_> tbleek: does /dev/dsp exist? is it working?
[07:33] <rodigut> would there be any reason why my computer starts at system load being 3?
[07:33] <Pirate_Hunter> locate found it but what do i do now
[07:33] <wols_> rodigut: yes. it loads on ton of stuff on bootup
[07:33] <agentnoob> tbleek: use gnash instead of adobe flash, run 32 bit firefox with 32 bit adobe flash, run firefox in wine, install x86 operating system with firefox
[07:33] <wols_> Pirate_Hunter: how did you install turboprint?
[07:33] <rodigut> wols_: it stays at that load average though
[07:33] <agentnoob> tbleek: I find the last of them the most efficient
[07:33] <rodigut> even when I'm not doing anything
[07:34] <wols_> rodigut: load avg is not a benchmark
[07:34] <tbleek> i run firefox on 32 with linx32
[07:34] <rodigut> what would be an accurate benchmark?
[07:34] <agentnoob> tbleek: it crashes a lot doesn't it?
[07:34] <Pirate_Hunter> .deb file wols thats how I installed it
[07:34] <tbleek> no never had any crashes
[07:34] <Pirate_Hunter> but can't find uninstal
[07:35] <wols_> Pirate_Hunter: then you remove it in synaptic or apt-get or dpkg
[07:35] <agentnoob> tbleek: well if you watch a flash stream like a video or something and pause in between it usually crashes
[07:35] <wols_> Pirate_Hunter: dpkg -l | grep print
[07:35] <luco> hello
[07:35] <wols_> rodigut: what do you want to bench?
[07:36] <tbleek> flash is working fine. but no sound
[07:36] <stefg> rodigut: and you might be surprised to hear that most systems are intelligent enough to use idle cpu-time for internal jobs (caching, updatedb, preloading and stuff) so be glad tha instead putting the feet on the desk your computer is indeed working
[07:36] <GoGi> Where does this "The program BLA is currently not installed" come from?
[07:36] <Pirate_Hunter> wols gonna try that I would use it but I think it is wrong for me to pay 30 for it compared how much I payed for my printer
[07:36] <luco> i need to install  lexmark z603 printer on ubuntu 5.1
[07:36] <agentnoob> tbleek: before on fedora I changed a few settings in the firefox script to export to xorg differently and it lessened the crashing, you might want to check into tweaking that
[07:36] <agentnoob> tbleek: how is it going so far with other flash things? like webpage decor and web games?
[07:36] <tbleek> firefoxrc is FIREFOX_DSP="none"+
[07:37] <wols_> luco: upgrade your ubunut I'd say
[07:37] <tbleek> no problems so far....
[07:37] <luco> i trying. i downloaded .iso for ubuntu 6.10 but can upgrade
[07:37] <agentnoob> tbleek: wow your lucky
[07:37] <rodigut> wols_, stefg: I guess I figure that my computer should feel faster than it is.. which is highly subjective I know, but I guess I just have to add more RAM or something.
[07:37] <agentnoob> tbleek: what processor you using? I'm on turion64
[07:37] <wols_> rodigut: how much RAM?
[07:38] <rodigut> 1GB
[07:38] <stefg> luco: as i learned recently you have to get the drivers from the lexmark-site, they come as .rpm. convert them with alien and search the forums for the howto that i know is there
[07:38] <rodigut> I also have 2 20" widescreen monitors
[07:38] <tbleek> AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 3800+
[07:38] <xamox> anyone want to help me get clean urls working with Apache 2 & Ubuntu 6.10 I have ran a2enmod rewrite, says it's loaded, restarted server and it's still not working, any ideas?
[07:38] <stefg> rodigut: ATi video with mesa software 3D accelaration enabled by mistaje/bug?
[07:38] <luco> lexmark site has nothing
[07:39] <rodigut> stefg: no, but I have the nvidia drivers installed
[07:39] <agentnoob> tbleek: might want to try swiftfox then
[07:39] <rodigut> for dual screen
[07:39] <tbleek> i mean everything work... even beryl but no sound with flash
[07:39] <cables> agentnoob, http://getswiftfox.org
[07:39] <agentnoob> tbleek: that extra performance might lessen the chance of flash choking up
[07:39] <cables> swiftfox = icky
[07:39] <Thms> what is the dhcp client of ubuntu ?
[07:39] <stefg> rodigut: nvidia is fine, so it's not that.. how much RAM you got?
[07:39] <wols_> Thms: you told ffox not to make any sound and wonder why flash has none? the mind boggles
[07:39] <SillyZ> question, how does one get the kernel-source installed ? ( dawns flame suit )
[07:39] <rodigut> 1 GB
[07:39] <erUSUL> Thms: dhclient ?
[07:40] <ubuntu-rocks> i'm trying to move my /var folder from 1 drive to another. any suggestions? I know what I want to do, just don't know exactly how to do it.
[07:40] <Pirate_Hunter> tanx wols synaptic is removing it
[07:40] <agentnoob> cables: umm?
[07:40] <wols_> erUSUL: dhclient
[07:40] <stefg> rodigut: that's double the amount that's really needed
[07:40] <cables> agentnoob: http://getswiftfox.org (read the site)
[07:40] <Thms> thanks erUSUL
[07:40] <rodigut> I'm also using a 7100 GS
[07:40] <Pirate_Hunter> wols you wouldn't know where I can get PROPRIETARY driver
[07:40] <wols_> I don't do lexmark. and I avoid proprietary cowdung
[07:41] <EchoBinary> isnt everythign proprietary?
[07:41] <rodigut> EchoBinary: no
[07:41] <gharz> guys, if i install wine... can i install adobe illustrator? will it work 100%/
[07:41] <gharz> ?
[07:42] <cables> gharz, http://appdb.winehq.org
[07:42] <simplyw00x> gharz: check the win app db
[07:42] <stefg> rodigut: the hardware is fine ,spec-wise.
[07:42] <simplyw00x> gharz: and no-one will give you a 100% guarantee
[07:42] <Spec> it is indeed
[07:42] <agentnoob> cables: ah yeah I read something about that before, but wasn't there a few guides on how to modify the source code of firefox to get similar results? There might be some tension with firefox being so prejudice of their trademarks and the debian incident
[07:42] <SillyZ> gharz, check wines db for the application and how well it works
[07:42] <SillyZ> << what cables said
[07:42] <stefg> gharz: probably not, see the wine app-database and ask #winehq
[07:42] <rodigut> stefg: I guess I just expect more from this computer than I'm getting then! hahah
[07:42] <gharz> thanks for the info!!!
[07:42] <gharz> #winehq
[07:42] <cables> agentnoob, Swiftfox also caused issues with fonts for me, and I remember Flash not working properly, although that might be my imagination
[07:43] <SillyZ> then Vmware or Virtualize it and run it in there
[07:43] <rodigut> stefg: got a kick-butt computer at home so I guess I was thinking this should do _at least_ as well
[07:43] <rodigut> anyway thanks@
[07:43] <megafauna> Hi, I would like to partiion my ntfs drive. which program should I use?

[07:43] <Journeyman>  how do you encode video on ubuntu?
[07:43] <Journeyman> I have some home vids I captured and they are raw DV format

[07:44] <Pirate_Hunter> PROPRIETARY?? I don't know what it is - i'm just trying to instal a printer so I cna do assignments, didn't think it would be that hard and yes it seems everything is PROPRIETARY but I need something specific for the printer
[07:44] <tbleek> but if i use swiftfox 64 there will be no flashplugin
[07:44] <stefg> rodigut: if you really care that much... you ca run a couple of pseudo benchmarks to identify whats lagging. and ask google,  there's several bloggers which have written up tuning guides for ubuntu.
[07:44] <charles> I have a resolution problem. I have tried almost everything, check this out: http://i15.tinypic.com/4lix3cn.png

[07:58] <ubuntu-rocks> i'm trying to move my /var folder from 1 drive to another, how do i go about this?
[07:58] <neverblue2> using what I wrote?
[07:58] <qb> yes
[07:58] <Spec> ubuntu-rocks: first step would be to boot off a livecd
[07:59] <ubuntu-rocks> spec - copy that
[07:59] <Spec> ubuntu-rocks: then mount the /var filesystem, and the new harddrive, and cp -R /path/to/var /media/new_drive
[07:59] <Spec> ubuntu-rocks: and then edit /etc/fstab so that /var is pointing to the correct harddrive(the new harddrive's device name)
[07:59] <qb> ubuntu-rocks: create the new var called "var_new", copy all from var to var_new, change fstab and then reboot
[07:59] <father> join efnet
[08:00] <neverblue2> nope
[08:00] <neverblue2> that doesnt work
[08:00] <father> join
[08:00] <neverblue2> says something about extra operand
[08:00] <ubuntu-rocks> my first drive is /dev/hda1 and the second is /dev/hdb, what is the exact command to do this
[08:00] <qb> man fstab
[08:01] <father> join
[08:01] <guycook> I found a nice tutorial for import thunderbird email into the Evolution on Feisty, ? does it matter if the source files are 32bit and the host Evolution is on 64bit version of ubuntu?
[08:01] <erUSUL> raphael_: maybe uninstalling envy didn't uninstall the driver? try 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall nvidia-glx' (or nvidia-glx-new) if that's what you had instaled

[08:02] <Monteh> the latest ubuntu dvd wont install, i get the menu, but when i press enter on "install or start ubuntu" the status bar that appears afterwards hangs on the first bit.
[08:02] <qb> monteh, I had +- the same
[08:02] <jhasse> When i insert a CD it isn't mounted to my desktop. I think because ntfs-config destroyed my fstab. What can i do?
[08:03] <guycook> Monteh, did you do the checksum on the download?
[08:03] <qb> in fact, i have not a lot of ram, so booting from live and then intalling crashed
[08:03] <qb> so kill the process that you don't use before installing
[08:03] <Monteh> i have official ubuntu cds from v6 onwarsd, none ever installed.
[08:03] <jhasse> Here's my fstab: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24611/

[08:04] <ompaul> sx66, so why not /msg ubotu KeyWord
[08:04] <jhasse> How can i let ubuntu recreate it?
[08:04] <nofx1> how to assign an IP on roaming mode???? roaming mode is so cool... but I dont use dhcp... just want to save my profiles
[08:04] <Spec> neverblue2: you're trying to diff a directory of files with a directory of files?
[08:04] <qb> jhasse: do backups everytime
[08:04] <sx66> ompaul: what?
[08:05] <sx66> he is a bot
[08:05] <matthew1429> where are programs "stored" in linux?
[08:05] <Monteh> ok. ive tried all of those boot options, i forgot to mention that. i have got centos to install sucessfully tho :/
[08:05] <novato_br> !microphone
[08:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about microphone - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:05] <jhasse> qb: that's too late now :'(
[08:05] <matthew1429> like firefox
[08:05] <neverblue2> im trying this: diff this* ../other_dir/this*
[08:05] <novato_br> !mic
[08:05] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about mic - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:05] <Spec> matthew1429: on the filesystem
[08:05] <ompaul> sx66, and it is spamming the channel you are not telling anyone anything -- query it in private
[08:05] <matthew1429> ... duh
[08:05] <Spec> matthew1429: open up a command line and type "which firefox", it'll show you where the binary is
[08:05] <matthew1429> which folder
[08:05] <qb> hello matt
[08:05] <godzirra> Howdy folks.
[08:05] <matthew1429> ty
[08:05] <Spec> matthew1429: but that's just the binary, other files neccessary for the running of firefox are in other locations
[08:05] <guycook> novato_br, makeing the mic work just isn't something I can easily do, so I quit trying that's just me others might can but I gave up for a while.
[08:06] <Spec> matthew1429: updatedb && locate firefox will tell you a lot
[08:06] <tyler_d> success!!
[08:06] <Spec> the mic worked out of the box for me
[08:06] <Spec> tyler_d: excellent
[08:06] <neverblue2> Spec: im trying this: diff this* ../other_dir/this*
[08:06] <godzirra> I've got my wireless on my laptop working correctly, but everytime the screen saver comes on and it locks my laptop, the wireless stops working and I have to reconnect to the wireless access point.  Similarly, if it goes to sleep and I wake the laptop up, I have to completely restart the laptop before wireless will work again.
[08:06] <Spec> there are lots of this* files?
[08:06] <neverblue2> more than one
[08:06] <Spec> yeah, hmm, maybe you can't do that
[08:06] <tyler_d> Spec_: thank-you
[08:06] <Spec> i thought you meant a single file with the same name
[08:06] <neverblue2> qb concur?
[08:07] <tyler_d> Spec_: next one for you, I wanna get rid of the add-leave notifications, using gaim
[08:07] <Spec> neverblue2: are the files named the same?
[08:07] <neverblue2> ah i see
[08:07] <neverblue2> Spec i think your confused :)
[08:07] <Spec> neverblue2: perhaps, but i meant /this* /other/this*, are all the this* files named the same? ie, you want to do: diff  this1 /other/this1; diff this2 /other/this2, diff this3 /other/this3
[08:07] <novato_br> but i can't make it works
[08:08] <novato_br> because i don't what's the problem
[08:08] <Jowi> neverblue, you either "diff dir1 dir2" or "diff file1 file2"
[08:08] <Monteh> what im wondering is. what does centos have, that ubuntu doesnt. that makes centos install like a dream :s
[08:08] <neverblue2> yes
[08:08] <novato_br> and i gues that is not so easy
[08:08] <neverblue2> Jowi, did you see the original question?
[08:08] <Spec> neverblue2: for i in this*; do diff $i /other/$i >> doom.diff; done
[08:08] <novato_br> i saw the audio menu and my microphone is turn on
[08:09] <neverblue2> hmm
[08:09] <neverblue2> that wont work either
[08:09] <Jowi> neverblue, can you diff multiple files (in two dirs) with the same name? diff this* ../other/this* <-- yes, you can but don't use wildcards for folders
[08:09] <Spec> aww, whyn't?
[08:09] <neverblue2> for what I am doing..
[08:09] <neverblue2> oh wait
[08:09] <neverblue2> i can do the loop on this*?
[08:09] <neverblue2> nice
[08:09] <neverblue2> creative :)
[08:10] <Spec> i strive to be creative
[08:10] <Spec> that doesn't mean it'll work
[08:10] <king__> who has Virtual Box?
[08:10] <Jowi> neverblue, if you use "diff folder folder/*" you will get an error
[08:11] <godzirra> I've got my wireless on my laptop working correctly, but everytime the screen saver comes on for a little while, it locks my laptop, the wireless stops working and I have to reconnect to the wireless access point.  Similarly, if it goes to sleep and I wake the laptop up, I have to completely restart the laptop before wireless will work again.
[08:11] <neverblue2> Jowi once again, did you see my original question?
[08:12] <king__> who can help me
[08:12] <Jowi> neverblue, did you see my response to your question if I had seen your original question?
[08:12] <Jowi> :)
[08:13] <neverblue2> nope
[08:13] <neverblue2> doesnt work
[08:14] <Jowi> neverblue, have a look at the --from-file option
[08:14] <Jowi> neverblue, example: diff --from-file Desktop/* Downloads/
[08:15] <hamb> i'm trying to setup dual screen with nvidia-settings, i'm able to get both monitors working, but my 2nd monitor is a widescreen, and its resolution is not being shown in the menu
[08:16] <doopsie> hi, is there anybody around?
[08:16] <skyfaller> hey folks... I'm having serious problems with the Xubuntu alternate disk... the md5 sum checks out, and I've burned it to 3 separate CDs, but it keeps failing when I boot the CD and try to check its integrity...
[08:16] <ubuntu-rocks> can i move /var folder from 1 drive to another, without booting off the live cd?  I have to d/l the livecd
[08:17] <Spec> skyfaller: have you tested a different cd's integrity with the same cdrom drive?
[08:17] <dimspairn> hey, I'm relatively new to linux, and i'm having trouble setting up multi-monitor support on my box. I have two different gfx adaptors; one is a nvidia 420, and the other is a pci voodoo3 2000.
[08:17] <Spec> ubuntu-rocks: you shouldn't
[08:17] <ubuntu-rocks> spec - shouldn't copy with booting off the livecd?
[08:17] <skyfaller> Spec: hm... I was told that only the alternate CD would boot on my old hardware, so no, but I could go try another.
[08:17] <wols_> ubuntu-rocks: you can. remount /var read only then move, then reattach it
[08:18] <Spec> yes, you could do that
[08:18] <Spec> mount -o remount -o rw /var i believe is the command
[08:18] <Spec> err, sorry, make that ro :p
[08:18] <ubuntu-rocks> when i do a "mount" command, i don't see /var, i do see ;, /var/run, /var/lock though
[08:19] <Spec> is /var not on it's own partition right now?
[08:19] <ubuntu-rocks> spec - no i don't think so

[08:36] <GNU\colossus> was the support for installing CLI- only systems pulled from the non-alternative LiveCDs of *ubuntu?
[08:37] <tc-will> so i shared a directory on my ubuntu box by right clicking and setting it to be shared, using SMB, when I attempt to connect to it from my windows laptop i am prompted for login credentials, i never set these and the regular linux user/pass i use to login to the ubuntu box dont work.  How do i set these access creds?
[08:37] <stenh> @hamb...have you tried editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
[08:37] <guycook> duh on me!  I was trying to use the en Thunderbird locale file as the email client, now I know synaptic calls it 'mozilla thunderbird' and it installed this time..... sheesh!

[08:37] <fargiolas> hi could someone please point me to a good function plotting application? best if gtk?
[08:38] <GNU\colossus> ubuntu-rocks: of course you can
[08:38] <GNU\colossus> fargiolas: why not use gnuplot?
[08:38] <ubuntu-rocks> GNU\colossus- thanks
[08:38] <hamb> i've tried adding "1440x900" in front of the Modes section, but doing so and restarting screen makes my 2nd screen disappear from the nvidia settings
[08:39] <RockClimber> could someone suggest a panorama viewer - preferrably one apt-get'able from fiesty. I have a 360 degree jpeg
[08:39] <fargiolas> GNU\colossus: gnuplot is good at plotting data, but i'd like to have a more "educative" software for functions.. what i don't like of gnuplot is that it automatically chose axis boundaries for me

[08:40] <craigbass1976> Is there another window manager I can use by default when booting up from the live cd?  Some option I can pass?

[08:42] <Beastage> damn
[08:42] <hwilde> anybody know why my arrow/home/end keys don't work in vi ?
[08:42] <Beastage> its supposed to work
[08:42] <fargiolas> GNU\colossus: what do you mean for standalone? is there a gnuplot frontend?
[08:43] <hwilde> tc-will, it is just your username and pw
[08:43] <GNU\colossus> there are many programs using gnuplot as a plotting backend
[08:43] <GNU\colossus> like maxima, for example
[08:43] <tc-will> hwilde:  tried that, doesnt accept it

[08:45] <GNU\colossus> was the support for installing CLI- only systems pulled from the non-alternative LiveCDs of *ubuntu?
[08:45] <Monteh> it boots to the option menu, then hangs on the following status bar, every verions i tried so far, even using noapic for example
[08:45] <hwilde> Monteh, what kind of hardware?
[08:46] <ubuntu-rocks> ok, i can't find my knoppix cd and my gentoo live cd, the screen doesn't support whatever resolution it is using.  How about a gentoo minimal install cd. i'm trying to copy /var from 1 drive to another
[08:46] <Monteh> pmd it hwilde
[08:46] <stenh> wols - are you requesting or suggesting?
[08:46] <hwilde> ubuntu-rocks, use dd
[08:46] <Monteh> didnt wanna spam the channel
[08:46] <snail_> can somone explain to me the purpose of 2 xservers , or point me to a more specific channel/server
[08:46] <wols_> stenh: it's a way fr you to actually know what hardware you have
[08:46] <hwilde> Monteh, is it custom built or from a known manufacturer
[08:46] <amshake> any thoughts on making this hard drive behave?
[08:46] <Monteh> custom
[08:46] <ShpxLbh_uk> Hi, does someone use Pentagram tablet on ubuntu ? I don't know where are settings, because I can only 'draw' on small area of screen
[08:47] <Monteh> mobo is asus p4v8x-x latest bios
[08:47] <hwilde> Monteh, unfortunately it might not boot on all custom setups...
[08:47] <ubuntu-rocks> hwilde - i thought dd was for copying entire disk, which mind you, i won't mind trading my 10 gig to the second drive 80 gigs
[08:47] <Monteh> also. i have got centos 4.x to install perfectly, but i want ubuntu tbh.
[08:47] <stenh> ah...if that's in reference to the video card, I have installed either at different times in an attempt to get xserver to start.  I can boot into recovery mode just fine.
[08:47] <hwilde> ShpxLbh_uk, you need to modify the minx miny maxx maxy parametrs in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
[08:47] <hwilde> ubuntu-rocks, dd can be used to copy partitions
[08:47] <hwilde> !dd | ubuntu-rocks
[08:47] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dd - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[08:48] <hwilde> hmm
[08:48] <snorkel> How do I give myself root privileges so that I can modify, access, delete, and create anything, anywhere I want?
[08:48] <ShpxLbh_uk> hwilde: okey I will find something :> thanks for idea ;)
[08:48] <madman91> is it safe to delete everything in /tmp ?
[08:48] <hwilde> !root | snorkel
[08:48] <ubotu> snorkel: do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth.. there is no root password. Then you will see that it is sudo that grants you access and not the root password. Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo
[08:48] <hwilde> !sudo | snorkel
[08:48] <ubotu> snorkel: sudo is a command to run programs with superuser privileges ("root"). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for all information.
[08:48] <ubuntu-rocks> unfortunately /var is not is a separate partition on my 10 gigs drive that ran out of space. i'm trying to add a second drive (80gigs) and move the /var folder over to the new drive
[08:48] <hwilde> ShpxLbh_uk, I have a touchscreen with similar issue and I had to edit those parameters.  it was scaling between the device's input coordinates and the monitor display
[08:49] <wols_> ubuntu-rocks: and that is relevant how?
[08:49] <snorkel> hwilde: but i have to enter a password anyway when i use sudo
[08:49] <hwilde> snorkel, yeah so you don't break stuff
[08:49] <snorkel> hwilde: and the same pw doesn't work when i use su
[08:49] <novato_br> how can I do woks my microphone?
[08:49] <novato_br> http://www.cjb.net/images.html?4d518.jpg
[08:49] <ubuntu-rocks> can i use dd to copy my 10 gigs to my 80gig drive and remove the 10 gig drive? sort of like a disk clone
[08:50] <wols_> autoklauen: yes. then your 80G drive is a 10G one
[08:50] <wols_> erm: ubuntu-rocks
[08:50] <hwilde> ubuntu-rocks, yeah you would need to make a 10G partition first then copy it there
[08:50] <genericnickname> Hello
[08:50] <snorkel> !hi
[08:50] <ubotu> Hi! Welcome to #ubuntu!
[08:50] <SimAtWork> hwilde: actually, he could copy it to a bigger partition and then resize the fs
[08:51] <hwilde> SimAtWork, yeah or he could use a ghost cd or an external hd or email himself all the files etc etc etc
[08:51] <wols_> ubuntu-rocks: I already told you the answer to your questin half an hour or hour ago. what's the problem?
[08:51] <rbielun> does anyone know of a fix for the 2.6.20-16 kernel bug(s). everytime i load my computer i have to pick the .15 kernel. if i let it just go to the default .16 version it locks on a black screen with blinking underscore in the top left corner-
[08:51] <genericnickname> I'm completely new to Ubuntu...I got a laptop and, in a fit of boredom, decided "Hey, I've heard a little about this Ubuntu thing", and so I installed it....But when I try to start up now, I try to log in and it gets to "Nautilus", and then to some manager, but suddenly everything disappears and all I see is the background, and it just hangs here.
[08:52] <hwilde> rbielun, all you can do is install all the updates
[08:52] <ubuntu-rocks> wols - i don't have a working boot cd and can't copy the files while the system is online, it is in production. i'm testing on a similar box
[08:52] <rbielun> i keep updating but only as the -.15 kernel version.
[08:52] <pike_> genericnickname: try this maybe. 1) alt-ctrl-f2  2) login  3) sudo adduser  4) after youve mad a user alt-f7 and hit alt-ctrl-backspace and login with the new user
[08:53] <pike_> genericnickname: if that doesnt work you know its not a profile thing
[08:53] <rbielun> my computer won't run the -.16 @ all.~
[08:53] <Delirium-NL> what can i use to make a video of my desktop on ubuntu?
[08:53] <pike_> !istanbul | Delirium-NL

[08:53] <dawn_chorus> rbielun, but .15 runs?
[08:53] <ubuntu-rocks> i've tried g4l (ghost for linux) a little while back to clone a drive and it sucks!
[08:53] <rbielun> yes, .15 runs fine
[08:53] <Delirium-NL> i'll try it pike, thanks
[08:53] <dawn_chorus> interesting
[08:54] <genericnickname> Error: Microcode "bcm43xx_microcode5.fw" not availible or load failed
[08:54] <pike_> Delirium-NL: well ive heard istanbul for screencasts i normally just use imagemagic stuff but thats all cli so istanbul might be best
[08:54] <rbielun> i've read about numerous bugs but had not read about any fixes for it~
[08:54] <snorkel> is there an image viewer that can read .tga files, or convert them to a standard format?
[08:54] <Delirium-NL> ya i was kinda searching for a simple record tool tho
[08:55] <wols_> if you had a boot cd it wouldn't be in production/online either. it would be down. so what I suggested is still possible
[08:55] <dawn_chorus> rbielun, where does it hang?
[08:55] <ShpxLbh_uk> hwilde: there is my xorg file:  http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24613/   where are these coordinates ?
[08:55] <pike_> genericnickname: or you could once at the ctrl-alt-f2 do sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop kbuntu-desktop  and at login screen then when clicking sessions button youll have gnome kde and xfce to choose from one of those should work
[08:55] <stenh> Looking for direction on xserver problem with 6.10 and up.  PC = Compaq SP700, graphics card choice either a legacy nvidia card or ATI Rage Pro IIc
[08:56] <wols_> stenh: start to describe your problem for once
[08:56] <dawn_chorus> stenh, what's the problem?
[08:56] <ubuntu-rocks> wols - ok. tks
[08:57] <stenh> wols:  currently have ubuntustudio loaded.  results of trying to boot normally are either:
[08:57] <wols_> genericnickname: you haen't isntalled the bradcom firmware for your wlan
[08:57] <stenh> 1).  pc hangs w/no response to keyboard commands
[08:58] <Obelix> When I try to play a dvd with mplayer I get this msg: Error opening/initializing the selected video_out (-vo) device. ?
[08:58] <raphael_> is there a howto for microdia webcams on a hel80 laptop?
[08:58] <novato_br> wols_,  how can I make work my microphone ?
[08:58] <novato_br> it's turn on in here
[08:58] <stenh> 2).  I get error that x wouldn't start.  when viewing logs, errors are a).  no cyrillic font and b).  couldn't open acpid.  I boot with option acpi=off.
[08:59] <ShpxLbh_uk> Obelix: change in preferences for other video "codec"
[08:59] <ShpxLbh_uk> eg. x11 or other try
[09:00] <raphael_> when video,video1 and video0 exists, shouldn`t programs be able to use the cam?
[09:00] <stenh> last statement in first error log (when I get it) indicates that it's loading glx module, then backtrace...and that's it.
[09:01] <Jowi> Obelix, as ShpxLbh_uk said: mplayer -vo x11 file.avi

[09:04] <Kai-laptop> dawn_chorus, its a new laptop, its not "anymore" its just what doesnt work. its not picking up the wifi device in lspci for one
[09:04] <wols_> broadcom firmware
[09:04] <Kai-laptop> not even sure if what im asking exists, as most other stuff it autosetup, like lan.
[09:04] <wols_> by extracinbg it from the windows driver with fwcutter and copying it to /lib/firmware/
[09:05] <sx66> I had downloaded the libdvdcss2 codec, however, i need mp4 and quicktime, wma codecs, where do I get those?

[09:05] <tofuwabohu> hi

[09:08] <mildner_> good evening  any help to configer wine
[09:08] <novato_br> can I up size my Linux partitions after installed ?
[09:09] <ShpxLbh_uk> novato_br: good question I also need to do it :D
[09:09] <novato_br> yep, me too
[09:09] <greg_g> novato_br: if you have free space (not partitioned) "next to" the partition you want to resize
[09:09] <novato_br> i'm sad, because i should have to install the linux on big partition
[09:10] <stenh> novato:  try gparted
[09:10] <novato_br> Can't I use free space before my linux partition, greg_g ?
[09:10] <greg_g> novato_br:  how is your drive partitioned?
[09:10] <Coffeegrindah> pike_  Just made some minor changes.  going to restart X to try.
[09:10] <ubuntu-rocks> how can i list all files that are above X Mb?
[09:10] <novato_br> windows + linux + swap + data + data + data + data
[09:10] <greg_g> novato_br: I think the free space only has to be "touching" the partition you want to connect it to, so yeah, before should work
[09:11] <greg_g> novato_br: (did that make sense, I assume you are from Brazil?)
[09:11] <fraco> I'm missing "Multimedia System Selector" in the ubuntu menu. Sounds like a feature I'm really missing. What package provides it?
[09:11] <Azhi_Dahaka> hi
[09:11] <keith> ubuntu-rocks: 'man find'
[09:11] <novato_br> yep
[09:11] <novato_br> did you ask about my partitions, greg_g ?
[09:11] <novato_br> i answered
[09:11] <greg_g> novato_br: yeah
[09:11] <greg_g> yeah
[09:11] <novato_br> windows first partition
[09:11] <novato_br> linux is second
[09:11] <greg_g> novato_br: do you want to delete windows?
[09:11] <novato_br> swap is third
[09:12] <novato_br> no
[09:12] <Azhi_Dahaka> i have two hard disk, a 10GiB one and an 80GiB one... the computer originally was XP and both disks were NTFS.
[09:12] <Coffeegrindah> No luck.. though I'm seeing available resolitions that aren't in my xorg.conf
[09:12] <greg_g> novato_br: do you want to make the windows partition smaller and make the linux bigger?
[09:12] <novato_br> i want take free space of windows partition and I want give to Linux partition
[09:12] <greg_g> novato_br: you can do that
[09:12] <Azhi_Dahaka> XP crashed and I decided to give ubuntu a try... pretty cool, and now the 10GiB now is ext3
[09:12] <novato_br> i want use the partition magic software
[09:12] <greg_g> novato_br: defragment the windows partition first
[09:13] <novato_br> ok
[09:13] <novato_br> thx
[09:13] <greg_g> novato_br: then resize it (smaller), you will then have some free space before linux
[09:13] <Azhi_Dahaka> I can read the NTFS disks and I know about the NTFS write drivers
[09:13] <greg_g> novato_br: then resize linux using the free space
[09:13] <Azhi_Dahaka> but, I don't know how reliable those are
[09:13] <greg_g> should work
[09:13] <novato_br> it is secure use partition magic, i think it defragment partition
[09:13] <novato_br> yep
[09:13] <greg_g> novato_br: ok... yeah,
[09:14] <novato_br> greg_g,  because i'm install all softwares of linux
[09:14] <greg_g> novato_br: sounds like you know what to do :)
[09:14] <novato_br> My HD is 250GB
[09:14] <novato_br> heehe
[09:14] <novato_br> ok
[09:14] <novato_br> thx
[09:14] <cables> My friend screwed up his gdm.conf, and I'd like to send him mine. Does it have any confidential information?
[09:14] <greg_g> no worries
[09:14] <greg_g> good luck, come back if you have any questions
[09:14] <novato_br> and may i still help me?

[09:16] <genericnickname> What does it mean to fwcutter the drivers?
[09:16] <novato_br> how can I do my microfone to works on ubuntu?
[09:16] <Jowi> cables, no it does not contain any personal info. but, you might want to set it to nice defaults in gdmsetup first (so that it doesn't try to load a theme that doesn't exist aso)
[09:17] <greg_g> genericnickname: I think it means "cut out" the actual information that linux needs to use
[09:17] <cables> Jowi, I'm using one of the built in themes. Thanks.
[09:17] <greg_g> genericnickname: I could be wrong though
[09:17] <sx66> how do you change the password?

[09:20] <MetaMorfoziS> hi all
[09:20] <MetaMorfoziS> how can i add an user (from cli) who only can halt/reboot the machine
[09:20] <timothyarnold85> i'm installing ubuntu on top of a windows ntfs partition (there is only one partition). I am interested in dual booting; what is the best way to go about partitioning to make that possible?
[09:20] <MetaMorfoziS> so a normal user, but without root acces (only for halt)
[09:20] <MetaMorfoziS> and reboot.
[09:20] <cables> timothyarnold85, it'll be automatic.
[09:20] <cables> timothyarnold85, just make sure you select the "resize existing partition" option on the install.
[09:21] <timothyarnold85> cables: OK, so resize existing partition & use freed space will preserve the ntfs partition?
[09:21] <sx66> ?
[09:21] <sx66> !theme

[09:21] <cables> timothyarnold85, yep. Keep in mind that the size value applies to the NTFS partition, not the new Ubuntu partition
[09:21] <tyler_d> is it possible to pass a pci card to a virtual machine using qemu?
[09:21] <timothyarnold85> cables: OK, that's all I wanted to know; thanks!

[09:22] <dawn_chorus> timothyarnold85, defrag your Windows drive within Windows before you resize.  Be sure that there are no files put at the very end of the drive.  If there are, don't resize your partition until you find a way to move those files to another part of the disk.  Else, no more Windows.

[09:23] <LjL> !backup > adaminla    (adaminla, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:23] <cables> dawn_chorus, that's so not true. It's completely unnecessary to defrag the drive. GParted is smart enough not to clobber data at the end of the drive, I had data at the end, and it resized it just fine.
[09:23] <Esqueleto> oi
[09:24] <dawn_chorus> cables, lucky you.

[09:28] <CokeMan> after i've installed the java jre, how do i get it to work for applets in firefox?
[09:28] <cables> CokeMan, you need to install the plugin, not just the jre
[09:29] <CokeMan> cables: it wont install
[09:29] <cables> CokeMan, so install sun-java6-plugin (or sun-java5-plugin if you installed sun-java5-jre)
[09:29] <cables> CokeMan, how did you install the jre?
[09:29] <CokeMan> cables: apt-get
[09:29] <telo> What is the preferred vpn mechanism these days?
[09:30] <cables> CokeMan, 5 or 6?
[09:30] <CokeMan> 6
[09:30] <cables> CokeMan, so do < sudo apt-get install sun-java6-plugin >
[09:30] <CokeMan> installing the plugin worked, thanks.

[09:34] <Azhi_Dahaka> cables, the upgrade to 7.04 didn't worked as my sound stops working on it
[09:34] <Azhi_Dahaka> it's fine until 6.10, then it dies
[09:35] <timtux> Azhi_Dahaka, try to install 7.04 from a clean system
[09:35] <Azhi_Dahaka> it's reported on a lot of places and i spent one entire day trying to fix it without luck... seems to be a bug
[09:35] <timtux> May help
[09:35] <newb_prob> I compiled a new window manager from source. How do I add it to the "session" menu I get at the login screen?
[09:35] <Azhi_Dahaka> i installed it on a clean system
[09:35] <timtux> ah
[09:35] <Azhi_Dahaka> that's how i found that it didn't worked ok
[09:35] <Azhi_Dahaka> the card is recognized, installed and seems to play ok
[09:35] <timtux> Well, check what modules the soundcard needs and load them manually
[09:35] <timtux> checked alsamixer?
[09:35] <CokeMan> im rather new to linux and i know how to protect myself in windows, how do i know what programs are proper to be running what arnt and if im infected with like a backdoor or something how would i know if someone's compromised mysystem, are there firewalls (easily useable in every day) etc?
[09:36] <keev> how can i change my startup sound?
[09:36] <Azhi_Dahaka> but there's no sound coming from the speakers... yes, checked alsamixer levels, modified alsaconf and a lot of things
[09:36] <Azhi_Dahaka> no luck
[09:37] <ScottMac> #list
[09:37] <dave_> #list
[09:37] <Azhi_Dahaka> seems to be an issue with the kernel version, as the version exactly before the one on 7.04 worked fine

[09:39] <keev> ty
[09:39] <Nuked> thats 140f monteh
[09:39] <Monteh> maybe the program is misreporting the temp
[09:40] <Monteh> good air circulation around the hd?

[09:46] <tarzeau> does someone in here make free music?
[09:46] <stefg> mik__: how about giving Dell a call about that? But be warned: Vista is pretty unsocial with other OS's
[09:46] <Nuked> mik__, I know system 76 sells ubuntu laptops
[09:47] <toryl__> tarzeau:  yes, you?
[09:47] <rancidlm> hey all i did a update on my laptop last night and i went to kernel 2.6.20-16   after rebooting i got no more sound on my laptop alsa  is running and it detects a soundcard but no audio can some one please help me this is the second pc that 2.6.20-16 has messed up
[09:47] <mik__> rather something under 1000 $...
[09:47] <tarzeau> toryl__: pity, not me. but i make free textures, and maps. but i need someone to make music, for a game levels
[09:47] <shad0w1e> hey does anyone know of any free (easy to set up) chat servers? I need to set one up on a private LAN on my Linux box. thanx :)
[09:48] <klav> mik_ : listen to stefg - dell is selling ubuntu lappys for under $1000 :P
[09:48] <ahmed> guys i have just installed linuxant driver loader for wlan driver on linux,, everything isfine and after loading my wlan windows drivers i have this msgs 	Kernel module ipw3945 overridden by netw39x5. where ipw
[09:48] <ahmed> is the linux driver
[09:49] <ahmed> and netw39x5 is the windows one
[09:49] <roryy> shad0w1e: there are a few jabber servers in the repos; they're not *too* bad to setup, though I've only made limited use of them.  should work with gaim and other jabber clients
[09:49] <ahmed> how to fix this ?
[09:49] <mik__> klav: they will run vista on them too?
[09:49] <shad0w1e> roryy, how about something with a web client?
[09:49] <mik__> i mean they're like supported and stuff
[09:49] <klav> mik_ : Sure, if you were to install it yourself . comes preloaded with ubuntu
[09:49] <Monteh> i got my case for 4 Nuked, best case i ever bought
[09:49] <Monteh> D:
[09:49] <q2srw77> Question:  I'm trying to setup a Desktop Launcher that will allow prompt me to use Root/SuperUser rights.  Currently I have to open a terminal window and sudo the program I want to open.  Anyway to do that?
[09:49] <roryy> shad0w1e: like a web forum thing?
[09:50] <shad0w1e> like one of those java chat things but non-irc because that's public. i want to host it locally
[09:50] <klav> mik__: only issue there is you would have to remove ubuntu first - install MS then reinstall ubuntu - or maybe not i haven't touched vista
[09:50] <toryl__> tarzeau: sounds fun, maybe ask comp.music.midi?
[09:50] <sly> hello everybody :)
[09:51] <ahmed> guyss
[09:51] <ahmed> guys i have just installed linuxant driver loader for wlan driver on linux,, everything isfine and after loading my wlan windows drivers i have this msgs  Kernel module ipw3945 overridden by netw39x5. where ipw is the linux driver and netw39x5 is the windows one , how to fix this ? plz helpppp
[09:51] <klav> mik__ : but the laptops themselves are really nice
[09:51] <piratenin> Could someone help me set up my 5.1 sound under Ubuntu fiesty?
[09:51] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i remove all the options that appear at startup?
[09:51] <mik__> hmm... but its rather easy to split up the drive into 2 partitions, have like 50 gb for vista and 50 for ubuntu...
[09:51] <mik__> ?
[09:51] <Azhi_Dahaka> i'm getting and old windows install and lots of weird ubuntu versions
[09:51] <shad0w1e> piratenin, I hope it isn't sound blaster X-Fi :)
[09:51] <pike_> Azhi_Dahaka: what do you mean by options? like raid support etc.?
[09:51] <Jared> How risky would it be to crash windows if I resized a windows partition with the ubuntu installer.

[09:51] <ahmed> hello
[09:51] <ahmed> guys i have just installed linuxant driver loader for wlan driver on linux,, everything isfine and after loading my wlan windows drivers i have this msgs  Kernel module ipw3945 overridden by netw39x5. where ipw is the linux driver and netw39x5 is the windows one , how to fix this ? plz helpppp
[09:51] <LjL> q2srw77: use "gksudo applicationname" instead of just "applicationname" in the command line of the launcher.
[09:51] <finch> what package do you need to install to change kernels? I seem to have 2.6.20-16-generic now but want to see if a newer kernel lacks a bug in the current version
[09:52] <shad0w1e> piratenin, oh should work then, never did it tho....
[09:52] <q2srw77> thanks
[09:52] <hydan> how can one update to gutsy gibbon?
[09:52] <piratenin> well isn't working as of right now
[09:52] <klav> mik__ : im not a partition master , but yeah im sure it's possible to do so without removing ubuntu first
[09:52] <null_kuhl> guys i have just installed linuxant driver loader for wlan driver on linux,, everything isfine and after loading my wlan windows drivers i have this msgs  Kernel module ipw3945 overridden by netw39x5. where ipw is the linux driver and netw39x5 is the windows one , how to fix this ? plz helpppp
[09:52] <LjL> finch, there is no newer kernel available than 2.6.20-16
[09:52] <SlimG> My wireless nic isn't recognized in gutsy, where do I start when trying to figure out what/where the problem is?
[09:52] <ramatieg> hydan: You don't want to do that right now
[09:52] <piratenin> it is trying to play the music via the speaker out on the back of the computer, the green stero plug
[09:52] <sly> someone knows if it's possible to move some system data to another disk on the system ?
[09:52] <spikeb> !gutsy
[09:52] <ubotu> Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10).

[09:53] <finch> LjL, there must be. The version I have now has some problem detecting drives and takes 5 minutes to timeout and finish booting
[09:53] <LjL> finch: there "must" be? there just isn't.
[09:53] <null_kuhl> hellooo
[09:53] <toryl__> jared:  defrag and check out info on deleting hklm\system\mounteddevices
[09:53] <null_kuhl> guys plz hellpp :(
[09:53] <LjL> finch: feel free to compile your own, but there is not a package.
[09:53] <LjL> !kernel > finch    (finch, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:54] <Azhi_Dahaka> pike_, i mean a lot of options at startup... like 3 Ubuntu followed by something that I suppose are the kernel versions
[09:54] <novato_br> plz, i don't know where can I looking for? My Sound is Nvidia Audio SoundMax
[09:54] <omegacenti> What is better than Ventrilo, and if it exists, what is it called in Ubuntu?
[09:54] <novato_br> and my mic doesnt works on ubuntu
[09:54] <novato_br> and windows it's working
[09:54] <spanglesontoast> anyone know why my laptop cannot boot to my windows cdrom so I can fix the hal.dll
[09:54] <finch> LjL, I say "must" because I read on launchpad (some time ago) that there was a patch for that problem and it was supposedly resolved in a later kernel
[09:55] <spanglesontoast> grub seems to get in the way
[09:55] <null_kuhl> guys i have just installed linuxant driver loader for wlan driver on linux,, everything isfine and after loading my wlan windows drivers i have this msgs  Kernel module ipw3945 overridden by netw39x5. where ipw is the linux driver and netw39x5 is the windows one , how to fix this ? plz helpppp
[09:56] <piratenin> Does anyone know of a good music player for ubuntu, Rythmbox and I don't get along very well
[09:56] <LjL> finch, there certainly are newer kernels than 2.6.20, but they aren't available in Ubuntu Feisty yet. actually, 2.6.21 or later will *never* be available in Feisty - you only get security fixes. or, if the bug is deemed very serious, a patch may get backported. as of right now, however, the latest Ubuntu kernel simply is 2.6.20-16.
[09:56] <stefg> spanglesontoast: probably the bios is not set to boot from CD (because you see grub, which wouldn't happen otherwise) further support with windows in ##windows
[09:56] <LjL> finch: when a new one is available in the repositories, you should get notified automatically.
[09:56] <null_kuhl> HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO :(
[09:56] <LjL> !players > piratenin    (piratenin, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:56] <finch> LjL, 5 minute boot isn't serious enough I guess. Hrmph
[09:56] <dawn_chorus> piratenin, i like audacious and amarok.
[09:57] <spanglesontoast> setfg it is actually
[09:57] <LjL> finch: are you sure it can't be worked around somehow? some kernel options to pass...?
[09:57] <oxigen> hi, i want to compile some software with flags for cpu optimizations, but i cant find my cputype (i have Pentium D Presler 945 3.4GHz), or what to put in flag instead of: '-mtune=nocona'
[09:57] <piratenin> Is it more common to download new programs for ubuntu with the terminal or to download something off my web browser
[09:57] <dawn_chorus> oxigen, you're a P4.
[09:57] <oxigen> dawn_chorus: thanks!
[09:57] <roryy> null_kuhl: it looks like no-one on right now knows how to help you; ask again in a while.
[09:57] <stefg> spanglesontoast: then your CD isn't accepted as bootable
[09:58] <LjL> piratenin, it is most common (and sane) to just use the repositories (meaning either Synaptic or apt-get, normally)
[09:58] <finch> LjL, the bug I read was specifically about some brand of dvdr and the workaround was to add a kernel option but it doesn't work for me. I don't even have a burner.
[09:58] <dawn_chorus> oxigen, good luck with the build.  :)
[09:58] <piratenin> how do I find out what stuff is avalible with apt-get?
[09:58] <piratenin> and exactly what to type in
[09:58] <spanglesontoast> well it has before
[09:58] <finch> LjL, though I get the same error messages they mentioned so I suspect it's related
[09:59] <stefg> spanglesontoast: sometimes CDs 7drives break
[09:59] <roryy> piratenin: i recommend synaptic (system -> admin -> synaptic); it will let you browse software available for download
[09:59] <Jowi> piratenin, "apt-cache search general info" or "apt-cache search -n name"
[09:59] <LjL> finch, you could of course try kernel 2.6.20-15, but i suppose it won't make a difference. what's the bug report anyway?
[09:59] <finch> LjL, I'll have to find it again
[09:59] <klav> piratenin: http://packages.ubuntu.com/
[09:59] <LjL> !packages > piratenin    (piratenin, see the private message from Ubotu)
[09:59] <rolnxyz_> piratenin: to find new stuff without knowing what you are looking for I would use the GUI synaptics. If you know what you are looking for sudo apt-cache search termtosearch
[09:59] <LjL> rolnxyz_: sudo...?
[09:59] <Eric_Jardas> anyone here know how to write regex ?
[09:59] <stefg> spanglesontoast: it's a CD or bios issue... this all happens before grub kicks in, so it's not 'grub getting in the way'
[10:00] <finch> LjL, I believe it's related to the ATA changes made in the kernel just prior to feisty release
[10:00] <piratenin> What is the difference between multiverse, universe, and restricted?
[10:00] <roryy> Eric_Jardas: simple ones, sure.  what d'you want?
[10:00] <dawn_chorus> piratenin, you can search the cache.  sudo apt-cache search mp3 for example.
[10:00] <LjL> piratenin: "main" is free software maintained by the core developers of Ubuntu; "universe" is free software maintained by the community; "restricted" is non-free software by the core devs; "multiverse" is non-free by the community
[10:01] <LjL> dawn_chorus, rolnxyz_: what's this "sudo apt-cache search" thing? apt-cache search does *not* want or need sudo
[10:01] <null_kuhl> guys i have just installed linuxant driver loader for wlan driver on linux,, everything isfine and after loading my wlan windows drivers i have this msgs  Kernel module ipw3945 overridden by netw39x5. where ipw is the linux driver and netw39x5 is the windows one , how to fix this ? plz helpppp
[10:01] <Eric_Jardas> roryy, It Should match a word after def (with space in between)
[10:01] <rolnxyz_> LjL: im sorry no sudo
[10:01] <dawn_chorus> LjL, really?  i've *always* had to type in sudo.  ??
[10:02] <LjL> dawn_chorus: you you don't. "apt-get install" wants sudo, since you're going to make changes to system stuff. "apt-cache search" just shows you the list of packages, and any user can call it.
[10:02] <roryy> Eric_Jardas: 'def .+' is slightly overbroad possibility. maybe 'def [a-zA-Z] +' ?
[10:02] <sly> is there a folder equal to the program files of windows on ubuntu ? If yes is it possible to move this folder on another hard disk ? thanks
[10:02] <roryy> Eric_Jardas: perhaps we could discuss this in #ubuntu-offtopic instead?
[10:02] <stefg> !easyubuntu
[10:02] <LjL> sly: no
[10:02] <ubotu> easyubuntu is a script that automates installation of some items. Use at your own risk. See http://easyubuntu.freecontrib.org/ - For help and or discussions about EasyUbuntu please join #easyubuntu
[10:02] <piratenin> Ok so say I found something on the apt-cache that I want, how do I know whato type in?
[10:02] <caminomaster> hello
[10:02] <gordboy> is there a light fast caching nameserver for a desktop scenario ?
[10:03] <sly> argh... thank you
[10:03] <dawn_chorus> LjL, huh.  imagine that.  :)
[10:03] <LjL> sly: in the UNIX filesystem model, files are mostly placed in directories by "type", so to say. so, documentation lives in /usr/share/doc, while executables live in /usr/bin, etc etc
[10:03] <LjL> sly: a single program normally has files scattered all around the filesystem
[10:03] <caminomaster> i've installed amsn097 but it claims for tls, and amsn can't get it from sourceforge
[10:03] <p1ls> hey guys, what programs you suggest to editing your window/fonts settings, similar to mwm,
[10:03] <LjL> sly: however, quite a few people have /usr as a separate partition. that might be an option for you, perhaps.
[10:03] <p1ls> hey guys, what programs you suggest to editing your window/fonts settings, similar to mwm, fvmw
[10:03] <omegacenti> What is better than Ventrilo, and if it exists, what is it called in Ubuntu?
[10:04] <stefg> bah.... no easyubuntu for feisty
[10:04] <Tom_UK> hey all, im trying to install a creative webcam on ubuntu feistey fawn but my /dev/video0 isnt created, what the hell have i missed
[10:04] <stefg> !easysource
[10:04] <ubotu> source-o-matic is a webpage where you can (re)generate your sources.list - http://www.ubuntu-nl.org/source-o-matic
[10:04] <viktor> hi
[10:04] <p1ls> hey guys, what programs you suggest to editing your window/fonts settings, similar to mwm, fvmw
[10:04] <Jowi> piratenin, example: try this "apt-cache searn -n xorg dev". first thing you will see is the packagename followed by - description. you use "sudo apt-get install packagename" to install or "sudo apt-get remove packagename" to remove
[10:05] <Jowi> typo there. "apt-cache search -n xorg dev"
[10:05] <stefg> !w32codecs
[10:05] <ubotu> Seveas has a popular 3rd party repository for several packages, including the win32 codecs: see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/SeveasPackages - See also !Codecs
[10:05] <caminomaster> hi, has anyone installed amsn.97 from 3v1n0?
[10:06] <sly> great thank you for your anwers i have to gain freespace on my system drive, and i'm havin another hard disk with plenty freespace. I'm trying to understand what i can do, so I'm gonna search right now what is the usr folder
[10:06] <Jowi> piratenin, another example for a general search: "apt-cache search gnome card game"
[10:07] <LjL> sly, "/usr" is the most massive directory in your system. basically, it contains all software that isn't needed at the early stages of the boot process.
[10:07] <Tom_UK> hey all, im trying to install a creative webcam on ubuntu feistey fawn but my /dev/video0 isnt created, what the hell have i missed
[10:07] <LjL> sly: another thing people often do is have /home as a separate partition
[10:07] <omegacenti> piratenin: Um with the Xorg thing, I know am jumping into the conversation, but if you would tell me what you find I would greatly appreciate it.
[10:07] <Jowi> piratenin, that will give you two packages. gnome-games and gnome-hearts. "sudo apt-get install gnome-hearts" will install it for you
[10:07] <Pelo> stefg, learn to use apt-get you'll never need easyubuntu again
[10:07] <soneil> is anyone familiar enough with folder actions in osx, to know what it'd take to add something similar to Nautilus ?
[10:07] <LjL> !fhs > sly    (sly, see the private message from Ubotu)
[10:08] <stefg> Pelo: i know how to use it... it's a matter of time and concentration when you set three different boxes at once
[10:08] <misfit> I have XP and Ubuntu on my computer.  My burner works ok in XP but I can't burn anything in Ubuntu.  Any suggestions?
[10:08] <Pelo> soneil,  descrive what folder actions do in osx
[10:08] <fletch_> misfit: what program are you usign to burn with?
[10:08] <jebuskrist> afternoon all
[10:08] <Jowi> piratenin, let me know if I wasn't clear.
[10:09] <sly> yeah great thank you ! i already made the home on the other hard disk i look further for the usr thank you very much again :)
[10:09] <soneil> Pelo, you add a script to a folder, in such a manner than the script will be called if the appropriate events occur in that folder.  such as "when (new file appears) do { this }"
[10:09] <misfit> Fletch, I've tried k3b, amarok and the built-in cd creator program
[10:09] <Pelo> soneil,  look into  devilspie  ( devil's pie)
[10:09] <soneil> Pelo, it strikes me that python & gamin could do the job I'm thinking of, but if I could piggy-back off nautilus, I wouldn't need the script running constantly
[10:09] <gloin> Is there a channel specific to ltsp on ubuntu?
[10:10] <jrib> Pelo: that's not really the same
[10:10] <MetaMorfoziS> how can i make a simple user, who only can shutdown and reboot the system, and no anything else that needs root
[10:10] <MetaMorfoziS> ?
[10:10] <Pelo> jrib,  I know but it might do the trick depending on what he wants to do
[10:10] <omegacenti> I am trying to get certain resolutions to work with ubuntu. The resolutions work in windows. I have messed with 915resolution, Xorg.conf, and have barely tapped the bootup scripts to install 915resolution during startip. However, I still cannot get these resolutions. I have a Gateway CX2618 with a 14inch TFT WXGA tabletmonitor and am running ubuntu 7.04  I would GREATLY appreciate advice/walkthrough support from
[10:10] <omegacenti> someone who has dealt with such issues before.
[10:10] <misfit> It just freezes the system on all programs when it says it's preparing the cdrom
[10:10] <soneil> my impression is that devilspie customises the behaviour of the window manager?
[10:10] <fletch_> misfit: is ubuntu atleast recognizing the drive?
[10:10] <opapo> nmblookup fails when I search for my hostname
[10:10] <Kobalts> Where are core dump files saved to?
[10:10] <jessy_> which version do I have to download to have an ubuntu live cd?
[10:11] <jrib> jessy_: desktop
[10:11] <jessy_> desktop ?
[10:11] <georgy28> jessy_, desktop version
[10:11] <Pelo> jessy_,   the desktop one
[10:11] <jessy_> ok thanks ;)
[10:11] <gloin> gads
[10:11] <misfit> fletch, yes it sees it.  I can read cd's and it recognizes the blank cd's.  Again, it freezes the system when it's prepping the disc, but it works just fine in XP.
[10:11] <Kobalts> I got a Segmentation fault (core dumped) ... anyone know where the core file is saved to?
[10:11] <misfit> So I know the hardware is good.
[10:12] <fletch_> misfit: right
[10:12] <Jowi> omegacenti, wxga has got several types of supported resolutions. which one is the native for your monitor?
[10:12] <OsX> is there a stand alone flash player out ?
[10:12] <omegacenti> Jowi: 1280x768, currently unselectable with my configuration and ubuntu
[10:12] <soneil> Kobalts: what does "ulimit -c" return?  I believe most distros disable cores by default
[10:12] <Jowi> omegacenti, run "sudo 915resolution -l". is that resolution listed?
[10:13] <misfit> Any recommendation on what else I can try?
[10:13] <omegacenti> Jowi: One second please.
[10:13] <Lekrem> OSX: Gnash
[10:13] <Kobalts> soneil: says 0
[10:13] <fletch_> misfit: i personally dont burn many things onto discs
[10:13] <OsX> is that the packages name Lekrem ?
[10:13] <omegacenti> Jowi: No.
[10:13] <Lekrem> OSX yup
[10:13] <fletch_> misfit: but a friend of mine does, im trying to remember what program he uses
[10:13] <d2dchat> i just installed workrave.. my keyboard is going to lock in 8 minutes!! AHHH!
[10:13] <Kobalts> d'oh!  I guess I need to enable it then
[10:14] <d2dchat> I dunno if i can even take breaks...
[10:14] <d2dchat> It's just not normal ..
[10:14] <fletch_> misfit: it wasn't one of the ones you mentioned using
[10:14] <misfit> fletch, same here but at times it's necessary.
[10:14] <Jowi> omegacenti, ok. the first thing that need to be done is to set 915resolution to the resolution you want.
[10:14] <d2dchat> does anyone else use workrave to save their fingers and hands?
[10:14] <OsX> thanks Lekrem
[10:15] <omegacenti> Jowi: Supposedly it can run 1280 768 at 32 bits. However, I also need 640 480m 800 600, and 1024x768(currently the only one avaiable)
[10:15] <soneil> Kobalts: Usually 0 would stop the creation of cores (by limiting them to zero bytes), but I'm not sure if that applies to the kernel.   http://kerneltrap.org/node/5758   has information on accessing a kernel dump, and suggests some tools you may want to look into
[10:15] <misfit> there's another I tried called x-cd-roast
[10:15] <carolyn_> i need to change the permissions of my external hd from R-only to R/W...
[10:15] <misfit> Didn't work either.
[10:15] <fletch_> misfit: what kind of files are you trying to burn?
[10:16] <Jowi> omegacenti, no probs. as you can see on the output of 915resolution -l there are resolutions available that you don't use such as 1280x1024
[10:16] <jebuskrist> anyone know why when i log out instead of returning to the login screen it dumps me to a black screen with a flashing cursor in the upper left i can then alt+f1 to a prompt and have to manually reboot to get the GUI back
[10:16] <fletch_> misfit: since some programs are better then others with specific file types
[10:16] <Kobalts> soneil: Thanks for the information
[10:16] <Jowi> omegacenti, before the resolution you see Mode and a number. chose a resolution (32 bit for example) that you don't use.
[10:16] <omegacenti> Jowi: Yes, I also thought the first 5 modes could be conviently erased and swapped with the modes I want. However, I have forgotten since my last attempt on how to do this.
[10:16] <leperkhan1> Hey, is there any way to have an actual machine display real time as a VM in Ubuntu?
[10:17] <fletch_> misfit: i get the feeling its got something to do with the buffer, but im not entirely sure
[10:17] <leperkhan1> For instance to play windows games in a windows window in ubuntu?
[10:17] <SlimG> My wireless nic isn't recognized in gutsy, where do I start when trying to figure out what/where the problem is?
[10:17] <Jowi> omegacenti, only the 32 bit modes are interesting for us
[10:17] <misfit> The first time, it was a few documents I had saved in my computer.  The second time, (this time) I'm trying to burn a music cd.
[10:17] <leperkhan1> Right now I'm using VNC, but the performance is too slow for gaming.
[10:17] <jebuskrist> leperkhan1, some run under WINE but the more advanced ones require a subscription to Cedega
[10:17] <Jowi> omegacenti, what is the mode number for 1280x1024 32 bit in your list?
[10:17] <ironfroggy> My wife's ubuntu machine started acting weird, as if the shift was held, yet keys were typing lower case. after restarting we're getting a kernel panic "Cannot open root device '301' or unknown-block(3,1)", yet a rescue CD and a fsck shows no problems with mounting root.
[10:18] <mc44> SlimG: #ubuntu+1 for gutsy
[10:18] <carolyn_> i lost the c-drive again...
[10:18] <ironfroggy> does anyone have any idea how i could diagnose that further?
[10:18] <misfit> What's the buffer, if you don't mind me asking?
[10:18] <ironfroggy> i want to avoid a backup-and-reinstall.
[10:18] <leperkhan1> jebuskrist: Yeah, tried that, but Wine just isn't good enough imho.
[10:18] <SlimG> mc44: thanks
[10:18] <carolyn_> what's the default location for the c drive in wine?
[10:18] <omegacenti> Jowi: So I should only mess with modes that are 32 bit? I thought all modes cold be rewrittent to be 32 bit. Also, 915resolution does not take affect unless X is restarted and even then you have to set a configuration file for 915resolution soewhere... Right?
[10:18] <Lekrem> carolyn_: D:
[10:18] <omegacenti> Jowi: its mode 5a
[10:18] <omegacenti> Jowi: er mode 58
[10:18] <mc44> carolyn_: ~/.wine/drive_c/
[10:19] <leperkhan1> Maybe I can bring my video out of the Windows box, and have it go to the video IN of my linux box and use a KVM?
[10:19] <ironfroggy> is there any logical reason for root to be mountable under the rescue disk but suddenly not for the machine itself?
[10:19] <jebuskrist> leperkhan1, you might try Innotek's Virtual Box i think is the name but im pretty sure that doesnt handle DirectX too well if its a DOS program/game then DOSbox may do the trick otherwise your only option is compiling cedega/winex from source or buying a subscription to Cedega
[10:19] <jebuskrist> leperkhan1, that may work too :D
[10:19] <Kobalts> soneil: ulimit -c unlimited fixes it.  Thanks again
[10:19] <misfit> fletch, is there a command I can run to determine if the buffer is acting up?
[10:19] <Jowi> omegacenti, you need to reboot for the changes to take effect actually. ok, let's continue. "sudo nano /etc/default/915resolution". set MODE=58, XRESO=1280, YRESO=768
[10:20] <leperkhan1> yeah, well, I really just want to have my VM be an ACTUAL machine.  Since I have extra machines lying around.
[10:20] <leperkhan1> or a higher speed VNC that does graphics real time.
[10:20] <lukillas> hi everybody
[10:20] <jebuskrist> leperkhan1, is your video IN supported under linux?
[10:20] <fletch_> misfit: not that i know of, but the buffer is what usually freezes computers (atleast for me) when a burning process is being attempted
[10:20] <leperkhan1> yeah.
[10:20] <sam_home> is there a ubuntu_christian or similar?
[10:20] <sam_home> a #irc ?
[10:20] <leperkhan1> but kinda low res.   It's just a TV tuner card.
[10:20] <Pirate_Hunter> how can I open files that are .package - I'm trying to update amsn
[10:20] <ironfroggy> sam_home: can i ask, whats the point?
[10:21] <jebuskrist> that may be the simplest option leperkhan1
[10:21] <misfit> Hm.  Fletch, I just downloaded gnome baker.  Let me give that a try.
[10:21] <leperkhan1> Hmmm...
[10:21] <sam_home> i have been playing with their stupid content filtering
[10:21] <leperkhan1> Interesting Idea.
[10:21] <fletch_> the buffer is what temp stores and deals with the info being burned onto the disc
[10:21] <omegacenti> Jowi: Done.
[10:21] <sam_home> and broken my machine
[10:21] <fletch_> misfit: ok
[10:21] <misfit> Oh, ok
[10:21] <jebuskrist> i find wine doesnt quite do it for me either so i just dual boot
[10:21] <leperkhan1> Guess I could send Audio too!
[10:21] <jebuskrist> sam_home, see what religion gets ya? jk
[10:21] <vaurdan> Hello
[10:21] <PreZGN> Is there an estimate to when a 2.6.21 kernel will be avail for feisty?
[10:21] <GigaClon> uh, azureus dies on me when i start it
[10:21] <sam_home> :)
[10:22] <leperkhan1> (though that would limit my 5.1 audio).
[10:22] <Jowi> omegacenti, save with ctrl-x (if you use nano). now we need to setup xorg.conf. "gksudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf"
[10:22] <PreZGN> And is the next release going to be called 'Galloping Gargoyles'? :P
[10:22] <omegacenti> Jowi: Command completed.
[10:22] <PreZGN> heh ;)
[10:22] <mc44> !gutsy | PreZGN
[10:22] <ubotu> PreZGN: Gutsy Gibbon is the code name for the next release of Ubuntu (7.10). See https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel-announce/2007-April/000276.html and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/GutsyReleaseSchedule - Roadmap and specifications: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/gutsy - Support in #ubuntu+1
[10:22] <omegacenti> Jowi: Would you like a pastebin of my xorg.conf?
[10:22] <Pirate_Hunter> how can I open files that are .package - I'm trying to update amsn
[10:22] <sam_home> so do they have a channel? or does anyone her know how their script locks the firefox proxy settings?
[10:23] <Jowi> omegacenti, can't hurt :)
[10:23] <PreZGN> ubotu: hehe ;)
[10:23] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about hehe ;) - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:23] <omegacenti> !pastebin
[10:23] <PreZGN> anyway - about 2.6.21?
[10:23] <mc44> sam_home: what is the filtering system?
[10:23] <omegacenti> ... did it work?
[10:23] <omegacenti> !pastebin
[10:23] <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)
[10:23] <mc44> PreZGN: it won't be
[10:23] <sam_home> dans guardian
[10:23] <leperkhan1> Hmm... VNC + TV out to TV in....  That might be exactly the ticket!
[10:23] <sam_home> but they wrote a script, which is fine, but now i want to unlock my firefox proxy
[10:24] <PreZGN> ugh. Great.  I need a driver introduced in 2.6.21 and I'd prefer not to have to hack up my own kernel :(
[10:24] <sam_home> not really a filtering issue at all
[10:24] <godzirra> Heya guys.  I'm running feisty adn I've enabled universe and multiverse in my sources.list, but I still can't find the wine package after updating...
[10:24] <piratenin> I am following a tutorial telling me to run winetools in terminal, how do you run things in terminal?
[10:24] <mc44> PreZGN: then wait for gutsy :)
[10:24] <xand_> hi, how can i access my system tray via keyboard?
[10:24] <PreZGN> or more correctly, i'd prefer not to have to go through the pain with regards to the restricted drivers
[10:24] <albertmk> !pastebin
[10:24] <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)
[10:24] <omegacenti> Jowi: Now even though this isnt right, its what works enough to get me to see 1024x768, but thats it nothing more. http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24630/
[10:24] <Jowi> omegacenti, I understand. wait
[10:24] <leperkhan1> godzirra: http://wine.budgetdedicated.com/archive/index.html
[10:24] <GigaClon> does anyone know about azureus core dumping on feisty?
[10:24] <PreZGN> mc44: I'm not waiting 4 months to be able to use my broadband access card under linux - especially when the patch is almost trivial.
[10:25] <PreZGN> I DID compile my own 2.6.20 with the patch, but the restricted drivers made upgrading nigh on impossible
[10:25] <PreZGN> they just don't compile like the instructions I found online said.
[10:25] <jebuskrist> leperkhan1, if possible i'd just dual boot :D
[10:25] <PreZGN> unless I wanted to go hacking the system and fooling ubuntu into thinking my kernel was an official release
[10:25] <mc44> PreZGN: well, feisty isn't going to get a new kernel. So there aren't that many options
[10:25] <leperkhan1> Meh.  I hate rebooting.  And I really hate rebooting into Windows.
[10:26] <jebuskrist> heh i know the feeling
[10:26] <leperkhan1> I'd rather have instant on via my VNC tv in idea.
[10:26] <aricz> what was the command to check how much diskspace is left? console
[10:26] <jebuskrist> hmm..
[10:26] <Pirate_Hunter> how can I open files that are .package - I'm trying to update amsn
[10:26] <leperkhan1> just leave both boxes on all the time.
[10:26] <PreZGN> arcade: df -k
[10:26] <PreZGN> arciz even
[10:26] <jebuskrist> do you have anything against two monitors one keyboard?
[10:26] <sam_home> so should i assume there is no #ubuntu_christian ???
[10:26] <Slart> is there some way to make the normal gnome terminal window not do word-wrap?
[10:26] <aricz> PreZGN : thanks
[10:26] <Jowi> omegacenti, ok, first impression looks good. try a reboot. if you don't get the correct resolution be prepared to pastebin me the output of "sudo 915resolution -l" and any xorg errors you might get.
[10:26] <jebuskrist> sam_home, maybe
[10:26] <leperkhan1> just lack of an exra monitor.. :(
[10:26] <jebuskrist> that might do it..
[10:26] <mc44> sam_home: doesn't appear to be
[10:26] <boxrock>  anyone: when i boot my 7.04, where can i see a log of errors in my /etc/rc2.d invocation? it isn't dmesg or /var/log thx!
[10:26] <leperkhan1> plus, if I had an extra monitor, I'd twin view... :D
[10:27] <sam_home> bugger
[10:27] <jebuskrist> lol good point
[10:27] <PreZGN> arciz: I guess df -h is more friendly, but I always preferred -k
[10:27] <omegacenti> Jowi: so ctrl backspace?
[10:27] <jebuskrist> what about buying a cheap KVM at walmart :D
[10:27] <Jowi> omegacenti, no. reboot
[10:27] <jebuskrist> its something like $25
[10:27] <omegacenti> Jowi: Full reboot coming up.
[10:27] <Jowi> omegacenti, cool
[10:27] <Urodi> Good evening. What would you recommend for a full disk encryption (500gb), dm-crypt or truecrypt?
[10:27] <leperkhan1> does video, too?
[10:27] <leperkhan1> that might be my best bet.
[10:27] <albertmk> *Does anyone one a good software for C++ project development ?
[10:27] <jebuskrist> KVM= Keyboard Video Mouse :)
[10:27] <leperkhan1> and upgrade the vid card in the windows box.
[10:28] <jebuskrist> and i believe it does audio too
[10:28] <leperkhan1> yeah... that might be the ticket.
[10:28] <albertmk> *Does anyone know a good software for c++ project development?
[10:28] <Slart> albertmk: well.. eclipse, anjuta.. might be more around
[10:28] <albertmk> thanks Slart.
[10:28] <PreZGN> Slart: kevelop for KDE users
[10:28] <johnaaronrose> mono is recommended
[10:28] <PreZGN> kdevelop even
[10:28] <PreZGN> or my favourite - vim :)
[10:28] <Slart> hehe
[10:28] <GigaClon> anyone know why azureus core dumps on start?
[10:29] <Pirate_Hunter> Can someone please help me... how can I open files that are .package - I'm trying to update amsn
[10:29] <rolnxyz_> albertmk: vim+ddd
[10:29] <GigaClon> Pirate_Hunter, you need autopackage
[10:29] <Slart> yea.. one of these days I'm going to have to learn it... it's like riding a monocycle.. there are easier, faster ways to get there.. but none as cool =)
[10:29] <leperkhan1> though I kinda like leaving the windows box in the living room hooked up to the projector: http://www.leperkhanz.com/forum/gallery2/d/3121-2/giantscreen.jpg
[10:29] <nitro4ce> which is the best mame emulator? xmame, glmame, sdlmame, advancemame, gxmame?
[10:29] <Fr00glez0r> Is it just me or has breezy fallen off the map?
[10:29] <GigaClon> yeah
[10:29] <jrib> Fr00glez0r: well it's no longer supported
[10:30] <craigbass1976> I see a note on installing Hoary on a Dell Inspiron 1100 that says to type in (at livecd boot) linux pci=noacpi noapic and I found it here https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HardwareSupportMachinesLaptopsDell.  I type it in at the end of the line you get when you choose F6 at the boot screen, but it won't work.  Am I typing it wrong, or is that only for a text install, or what.
[10:30] <leperkhan1> You know, for Mario Kart and such.
[10:30] <Fr00glez0r> So how do I upgrade?
[10:30] <mc44> Fr00glez0r: from breezy?
[10:30] <Pirate_Hunter> tank you giga but I can't find a link to actually download it
[10:30] <atknot> hi everyone; I'm trying to get my integrated Intel ICH5 audio to output 6 channel sound..when I play mp3s through totem i'm only getting 2 channels though, even though it's set to 5.1
[10:30] <Fr00glez0r> ya
[10:30] <jrib> !upgrade > Fr00glez0r (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:30] <aricz> mario kart \o/
[10:30] <craigbass1976> Video is seriously borked on this lappy, and I can't figure out why.
[10:30] <Slart> Fr00glez0r: I think the update from breezy was kind of.. well.. not as stable as one would have wished
[10:30] <mc44> Fr00glez0r: via dapper, and edgy :) Save yourself the hassle and do a fresh install
[10:30] <omegacenti> Jowi: still 1024x768.

[10:32] <craigbass1976> I'm at almost 24 hours on this 9minus 5 for sleep) and will have to put windows back on for the people if I can't get Ubuntu going
[10:32] <omegacenti> Jowi: no. lemme check 915resolution
[10:32] <aricz> null_kuhl : tried to google it?
[10:32] <jrib> realcr: right click -> properties, change the size
[10:32] <null_kuhl> yes and no result

[10:33] <Taime1> i watched a movie last night on my laptop, then when i booted it up, i had no sound.... i have tried EVERYTHING to get sound back.... is there anyone who can help??
[10:33] <jrib> realcr: make it bigger
[10:33] <null_kuhl> any way to unload this module ipw3945
[10:33] <null_kuhl> ?
[10:33] <omegacenti> Jowi: in the 915resolution config file there is a part syaing: bit= 24. Change to 32?
[10:33] <mc44> craigbass1976: you're trying to install hoary...?
[10:33] <jrib> realcr: hint: try >50
[10:33] <aricz> sorry, I can't help you, I'm a newb.. :)
[10:33] <realcr> bigger letters means less space on the taskbar. in windows you can actually make it wider
[10:33] <realcr> thanks , I'll try
[10:33] <realcr> brb
[10:34] <Jowi> omegacenti, let it say "BIT="
[10:34] <omegacenti> Jowi: Yes.
[10:34] <atknot> i'm trying to get 6 channel audio in ubuntu 7.04..
[10:34] <omegacenti> Jowi: so leave the value afterwards blank. will do.
[10:34] <Jowi> omegacenti, or 32. don't think it matters much
[10:34] <craigbass1976> mc44, no, feisty or edgy, can't remember which disc I threw in, but problem is consistent across Dapper, edgy, and feisty
[10:34] <eg_linux> can i change seting in bootloader?
[10:34] <Jowi> omegacenti, leave it blank for now
[10:34] <omegacenti> Jowi: Done.
[10:34] <misfit> didn't work, same deal.
[10:34] <jrib> craigbass1976: the alternate cd had issues as well I take it?
[10:34] <strabes_> test
[10:34] <misfit> fletch, it still froze on me.
[10:34] <Jowi> omegacenti, unfourtunatley another reboot
[10:34] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i remove all the unused options on the bootup screen?
[10:34] <misfit> hey fletch, it still froze on me.
[10:35] <pike_> craigbass1976: id recommend heading over to distrowatch and picking another distro man
[10:35] <omegacenti> Jowi: rebooting
[10:35] <craigbass1976> jrib, I sho' did
[10:35] <atknot> i tried tweaking controls in alsa-mixer, and i set "Channel" to 6ch
[10:35] <atknot> how do i get totem to play mp3s on all 6 channels?
[10:35] <piratenin> How do I get ubuntu to even recognize my sound card =/
[10:36] <piratenin> I can't play anything thru it
[10:36] <misfit> fletch, it froze again and temporarily stopped my internet connection.  It didn't let me eject the cd either, it just kept spinning but the LED did not turn on.  It froze the system at the same spot again, always while it says it's preparing the cd to burn.
[10:36] <PriceChild> piratenin, what card?
[10:36] <jrib> craigbass1976: do you have the latest bios (just reading http://www.geocities.com/randomnumbergenerator2001/)
[10:36] <piratenin> Creative Live! 24-bit external USB
[10:37] <UltraNav> totem: where is the lib to play DVDs ? I suppose it's libdvdcss - but it there an "official" repository ?

[10:37] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about dvdcss - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[10:37] <nanotaboada> seems that an update somewhat messed the audio packages because there's plenty of people reporting audio issues

[10:38] <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
[10:38] <cyber_brain_mfkg> how to set up ubuntu to do routing for my other computer?i want to go to internet with both at the same time!what programs i need???thanx
[10:38] <misfit> Guys, I have XP and Ubuntu on my computer.  I can burn discs ok in XP, but in ubuntu, every program freezes the operating system when I attempt to burn a cd, and it always freezes at the point where it's just about to burn the files to the disc.
[10:38] <kdoto> does apt-get allow you to install older versions of a given program at all?
[10:38] <jrib> craigbass1976: what do you mean by "the video is borked"?
[10:38] <Slart> cyber_brain_mfkg: you need iptables and masquerading.. it's the same for almost all linus distros.. google for it.. there are tons of howto's out there
[10:38] <RavenousX_> misfit, any problems running them both?
[10:39] <Slart> !router
[10:39] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about router - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi

[10:39] <nanotaboada> i've already reinstalled alsa according to this http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=205449
[10:39] <jrib> kdoto: yes, if they are in the repositories...
[10:39] <omegacenti> Jowi: I now have two options for resolutions. one is 1024x768 the other is 1280x768. This is better, but not ideal.
[10:39] <soneil> kdoto, I believe you can add =version to a package name or similar.  you'd probably want to look it up tho .. I don't have access to a linux box right now to check
[10:39] <nanotaboada> but still no audio playback, i can listen myself on the mic, but that's all
[10:39] <misfit> ravenous, do you mean the operating systems?  They both work fine, it's just I can't burn cd's in ubuntu for some reason.
[10:39] <Jowi> omegacenti, where are those options you mention?
[10:39] <craigbass1976> jrib, I eventually just end up at a blank screen
[10:39] <_Jonathan_> hello, I'm asking a bit weird question, I know for 95% sure my (crt) screen is slowly changing a bit brighter and after that a bit darker, and brighter.. etc.   is this because the screen is old, or maybe a screensaver? Or am I going crazy?

[10:41] <omegacenti> Jowi: However, I had to change the resolution from 1024x768 to 1280x768 if that is what you mean.
[10:41] <Jowi> omegacenti, you should only need to do that once.
[10:41] <vaurdan> there is some drive for Wireless of HP Pavillon dv6000?
[10:41] <Jowi> omegacenti, does the resolution work?
[10:41] <jrib> v3n0m: pastebin the result of this command:  ls -ld /home/YOUR_USERNAME/.{X,ICE}authority /home/YOUR_USERNAME/.dmrc
[10:41] <kdoto> jrib: thankyou!
[10:41] <mc44> vaurdan: what is the wireless card?
[10:41] <misfit> I've tried various different programs, and various different files, and they won't burn.  As soon as they say they are prepping the cd for burning, ubuntu just dies.
[10:41] <craigbass1976> jrib, The last thing I rerember was softwre getting installed, but I had my grandfather today, on top of my toddler and infant.  I do know that nothing got installed.  The drive got wiped, but nothing got put on.
[10:41] <OsX> can iris convert .swf to .mpg?
[10:41] <vaurdan> its a HP
[10:41] <omegacenti> Jowi: It appears it does.
[10:42] <vaurdan> mc44: HP
[10:42] <RoAkSoAx> vaurdan, but which brand and model
[10:42] <craigbass1976> cyber_brain_mfkg, Not sure in ubuntu.  Hang on a sec
[10:42] <mc44> vaurdan: yes, but what is the model of wireless card
[10:42] <misfit> but I can burn stuff ok in XP, so I know the hardware is good.
[10:42] <UltraNav> ubuto: thanks for the hint. however the path to install-css.sh on the page is wrong...
[10:42] <vaurdan> mc44: it come with the HP Pavilion dv6000
[10:42] <jrib> UltraNav: can you file a bug please?
[10:42] <cyber_brain_mfkg> craigbass1976: ok
[10:42] <RoAkSoAx> vaurdan, have you installed network manager?
[10:42] <Jowi> omegacenti, you're done :) I bet if you create a new user and log in with that you will get the good resolution automatically. you should only need to set it for your current user once.
[10:43] <mc44> vaurdan: ... ok. Do you have the computer there?
[10:43] <vaurdan> RoAkSoAx: ?
[10:43] <vaurdan> mc44: yes
[10:43] <sly> is there a gui simple tool for moving system folders across disks ?
[10:43] <tuskernini> Is it a bug if UBNTU sees a dataDVD as an audioCD?
[10:43] <jrib> UltraNav: oh, and did you resolve your issue?
[10:43] <kdoto> jrib: is there a way to list what versions of the package are available?
[10:43] <Taime1> My Sound Suddenly Stopped Working. Is There a Way to Troubleshoot This?
[10:43] <mc44> vaurdan: is the wirless card internal or USB?
[10:43] <jebuskrist> leperkhan1, i just checked your link, thats a big screen :D
[10:43] <omegacenti> Jowi: Unfortunately I still need 640x480 and 800x600.
[10:43] <jrib> kdoto: apt-cache policy PACKAGE
[10:43] <UltraNav> ubotu: don't know whether this makes sense as the page refers to 6.06 LTS and I have 7.04 ...
[10:43] <vaurdan> internal
[10:43] <RoAkSoAx> vaurdan, try installing network manager and see if your wireless work
[10:43] <jrib> !apt > kdoto (see the private message from ubotu)
[10:43] <mc44> vaurdan: ok. open a terminal and run "lspci"
[10:44] <misfit> Has anyone else has issues burning cd's with ubuntu?
[10:44] <RoAkSoAx> mc44, i believe it is a ipw2200 that comes with that model
[10:44] <mc44> vaurdan: can you see a wireless card there
[10:44] <Jowi> omegacenti, that is no prob. add the resolutions you need in /etc/X11/xorg.conf after "1280x768"
[10:44] <jebuskrist> anyone got a guide on installing the nvidia drivers in 7.04 for kubuntu?
[10:44] <omegacenti> Jowi: I have tried this in the past and it failed horribly.
[10:44] <Jowi> omegacenti, like: "1280x768" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
[10:44] <vaurdan> mc44: and now?
[10:44] <kdoto> jrib ty
[10:44] <fivetwentysix> Can i install wine on amd64?
[10:44] <jrib> craigbass1976: I don't know, I see a few bugs, but they just complain that the resolution isn't correct, which is a lot different than your experience
[10:45] <piratenin> Totem plays my music fine, but no other music applications have sound comming out the speakers
[10:45] <jebuskrist> fivetwentysix, i dont see why not
[10:45] <mc44> vaurdan: is there a wireless card listed?
[10:45] <vaurdan> mcno
[10:45] <Jowi> omegacenti, all on the same line
[10:45] <piratenin> The songs are playing, the EQ bar is moving, but no sound comes out
[10:45] <bigjohnto> anyone in here use MediaGate?
[10:45] <vaurdan> mc44: no
[10:45] <jebuskrist> piratenin, do you have the correct output selected in those programs?
[10:45] <craigbass1976> cyber_brain_mfkg, http://rafb.net/p/c2ymUH10.html  That's how you do it in a RH box.  Ubuntu is different; you have to save this file somewhere and have iptables read it.
[10:45] <jrib> craigbass1976: you've seen https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LaptopTestingTeam/DellInspiron1100 ?
[10:45] <craigbass1976> jrib, Yeah, I'd love at least poor resolution
[10:46] <mc44> vaurdan: is there something that says ipw2200 or broadcom?
[10:46] <beakmann> Hey boys, hey girls!
[10:46] <rituraj> So is linux going to use GPL3?
[10:46] <misfit> can anyone help me troubleshoot burning cd's in ubuntu?
[10:46] <jrib> !offtopic | rituraj
[10:46] <ubotu> rituraj: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:46] <RoAkSoAx> vaurdan, something like this: 00:0b.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection (rev 05)
[10:46] <omegacenti> !pastebin
[10:46] <ubotu> pastebin is a service to post large texts so you don't flood the channel. The Ubuntu pastebin is at http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org (make sure you give us the URL for your paste - see also the #ubuntu channel topic)
[10:46] <cyber_brain_mfkg> craigbass1976: this is rule file for iptables?
[10:46] <aricz> chemical.. broooothas
[10:46] <vaurdan> mc44: no
[10:46] <Jowi> omegacenti, like this http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24635/
[10:46] <jrib> misfit: what's the issue?
[10:46] <craigbass1976> jrib, yep.  He didn't have trouble it seems that couldn't wait until after install
[10:46] <beakmann> uiiiiija!
[10:46] <piratenin> I have to change the sound output device in every single program? =/
[10:47] <vaurdan> RoAkSoAx: yeah
[10:47] <omegacenti> Jowi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24636/
[10:47] <Jowi> omegacenti, perfect
[10:47] <mc44> vaurdan: what about "lsmod | grep ipw2200"
[10:47] <RoAkSoAx> vaurdan, do you have the same output?
[10:47] <jebuskrist> piratenin, maybe or in KDE Control Center under sound settings make sure everything is ok there
[10:47] <craigbass1976> cyber_brain_mfkg, yes.  That wil route traffic if eth0 points outside and eth1 points inside, or maybe vice versa
[10:47] <misfit> jrib, I have xp and ubuntu in my computer.  I can burn stuff ok in XP so I know the hardware is fine.  I can't burn anything in ubuntu, though.  I've tried a lot of other programs, and they all freeze the OS upon preparing the cd for burning.
[10:47] <yellow_chicken> /close
[10:47] <omegacenti> Jowi: reboot?
[10:47] <Jowi> omegacenti, ctrl-alt-backspace
[10:47] <vaurdan> mc44: nothing
[10:47] <omegacenti> Jowi:  one sec
[10:48] <Jowi> omegacenti, 915resolutions work is done. no more reboots
[10:48] <vaurdan> RoAkSoAx: yes
[10:48] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i remove all the unused options on the bootup screen? I have like 16 different options between windows and different kernel version options
[10:48] <Azhi_Dahaka> how can i remove those?
[10:48] <cyber_brain_mfkg> craigbass1976: thanx!how to read it with iptables?
[10:48] <Azhi_Dahaka> the old kernels and the options on the bootup screen?
[10:48] <jebuskrist> Azhi_Dahaka, edit grub.lst i think
[10:48] <piratenin> Is there any reason I would have extremely slow load times on all my applications
[10:48] <EADG_> Azhi_Dahaka: edit the menu ... sudu nano /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:48] <RoAkSoAx> vaurdan, do this in your terminal: sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
[10:48] <OsX> gnash: Depends: kdelibs4c2a (>= 4:3.5.3-1) but 4:3.5.2-0ubuntu18.4 is to be installed
[10:48] <jebuskrist> sorry Azhi_Dahaka  its /boot/grub/menu.lst
[10:48] <LjL> Azhi_Dahaka: "dpkg --get-selections | grep linux". you can remove the older kernels using "sudo apt-get remove <package>". you should probably keep at least one backup kernel.
[10:48] <piratenin> I have an AMD 3400+ and 1gb of ram
[10:49] <omegacenti> Jowi: And this is where it gets hairy. The two added options are not there.
[10:49] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: remove the corresponding linux-image-* packages.  Make sure you keep 1!  I recommend at least 2
[10:49] <OsX> i've already installed kdelibs4c2a
[10:49] <craigbass1976> Don't know.  Haven't got around to doing this with ubuntu yet.  That's on a cent box
[10:49] <OsX> how do i fix this
[10:49] <misfit> jrib, and everyone seems as stumped as I am haha.
[10:49] <craigbass1976> cyber_brain_mfkg, Don't know.  Haven't got around to doing this with ubuntu yet.  That's on a cent box
[10:49] <EADG_> Azhi_Dahaka: Comment out (add a #) to any options you don't want displayed.
[10:49] <vaurdan> RoAkSoAx:  it is the most recent version
[10:49] <jebuskrist> does anyone have a guide on installing the nvidia drivers in 7.04?
[10:49] <jrib> misfit: tried burning on the command line?  Might spit out some more info before it freezes
[10:49] <tdizz83> Does anyone have the system requirements for Ubuntu 7.04?
[10:49] <cyber_brain_mfkg> craigbass1976: isn't it same?i think it is
[10:49] <tdizz83> I can't find them anywhere
[10:49] <misfit> jrib, how can I do that?
[10:50] <cyber_brain_mfkg> craigbass1976: iptables is iptables
[10:50] <RoAkSoAx> vaurdan, and you dont have wireless support?
[10:50] <jebuskrist> tdizz83, a pc with at least 256mb ram and 4gb of disk space if you want to install
[10:50] <Taime1> My Sound Suddenly Stopped Working. I am Clueless When it Comes to Fixing This Stuff...What Can I do to Get Sound Back?
[10:50] <Jowi> omegacenti, which two added options?
[10:50] <LjL> OsX: my "gnash" package doesn't seem to depend on kdelibs4c2a
[10:50] <omegacenti> Jowi: 800 600 640 480
[10:50] <vaurdan> RoAkSoAx: Thanks :D
[10:50] <tdizz83> jebuskrist is that the suggested hardware specs for Ubuntu?
[10:50] <tdizz83> not just the minimum requirements
[10:50] <Jowi> omegacenti, maybe your screen does not support them.
[10:51] <craigbass1976> No.  Cent (and other red hat) by default have an /etc/sysconfig/iptables file that iptables reads for rules.  Iptables commands, when you do a save, write to that file.  Ubuntu, so far as I know, doesn't have a file unless you put it there and tell iptables to read it
[10:51] <jebuskrist> suggested no
[10:51] <craigbass1976> cyber_brain_mfkg, No.  Cent (and other red hat) by default have an /etc/sysconfig/iptables file that iptables reads for rules.  Iptables commands, when you do a save, write to that file.  Ubuntu, so far as I know, doesn't have a file unless you put it there and tell iptables to read it
[10:51] <jebuskrist> but the more powerful the hardware the fancier stuff you can run
[10:51] <Jowi> omegacenti, did you do ctrl-alt-backspace?
[10:51] <jebuskrist> tdizz83, what specs are you looking at using?
[10:51] <jrib> misfit: with "cdrecord", search for a tutorial.  Let me know if you can't find one, but I don't use it much either
[10:52] <omegacenti> Jowi: In one case of trying to fix this problem I did an autoconfigure of xorg. I lost all other resolutions exc ept the screen was then in 640x480. I know the modes are supported.
[10:52] <craigbass1976> cyber_brain_mfkg, but same rules though.  I just never really learned the commands and instead edit that file.  I have no iptables experience in Ubuntu.  Nothing running (other than ssh) that people can hack into anyway on boxes behind my firewall
[10:52] <tdizz83> jebuskrist I am considering Ubuntu 7.04 for a 1.7 ghz, 1gig RAM laptop
[10:52] <omegacenti> Jowi: I assume if I hit control key alternate key and packspace then it was performed correctly when I saw the login screen again?
[10:52] <Jowi> omegacenti, ok. then you will need to add the vertical and horizontal refresh rates to xorg.conf in the monitor section
[10:52] <jebuskrist> tdizz83, that should run fine
[10:52] <tdizz83> okay thanks :)
[10:52] <jebuskrist> np
[10:52] <misfit> thanks
[10:52] <Jowi> omegacenti, you assume correct
[10:53] <craigbass1976> misfit, sorry, I haven't been following.  I have a script somewhere that I wrote that burns from the command line.  Lemme look.
[10:53] <jebuskrist> was linux designed by sadists?
[10:53] <rooly> heheh
[10:53] <rooly> thats funny
[10:53] <cyber_brain_mfkg> craigbass1976: thanx anyway !!! i'll figure it out somehow!!thanx again ;)
[10:53] <omegacenti> Jowi: I have spent the last two days trying to find the horz and vert refresh rates for my monitor. I have been quite unsuccesful.
[10:53] <ironfroggy> is there is a less busy channel for more advanced issues or something?
[10:54] <ironfroggy> this place is to hard to be heard!
[10:54] <rooly> so anyway, i was wondering, how hard would it actually be to compile for a 64-bit OS?
[10:54] <leperkhan1> I'm outta here.  Way too busy of a chan to just leave runnin'!
[10:54] <jebuskrist> try screaming ironfroggy :D
[10:54] <sly> i'm lost i just can't find how to move files / space. i have my ubuntu on a 8go drive and the drive is full i have a free 60go drive with only the home mounted on it is there a simple way (gui and simplicity lover)  to move things ? If no is it a good idea to reinstall all ?
[10:54] <Jowi> omegacenti, ok. wait
[10:54] <ironfroggy> jebuskrist: i just might have to
[10:54] <jebuskrist> ironfroggy, are you having an issue?
[10:55] <ironfroggy> quite.
[10:55] <rooly> does anyone know why adobe can't figure out how to compile flash player for amd64?
[10:55] <ironfroggy> my wife's machine has got itself pretty well borked.
[10:55] <jebuskrist> rooly, they have the same retards working for them as M$ does?
[10:55] <LjL> !offtopic
[10:55] <ironfroggy> after some strange behavior she reboot, only to get an unmountable root volume. yet we can mount with the rescue cd just fine, and fsck reveals not a single problem.
[10:55] <ubotu> #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, #ubuntu+1 supports the development version of Ubuntu and #ubuntu-offtopic is for random chatter. Welcome!
[10:55] <omegacenti> I was so thinking that...
[10:56] <jebuskrist> ironfroggy, thats rather strange
[10:56] <craigbass1976> misfit, try--   mkisofs -o testing.iso *     This puts all the files in the current directory into the iso file.  Then do a--    cdrecord -v -eject cdrecord-test/testing.iso
[10:56] <ironfroggy> jebuskrist: i thought so too.
[10:56] <piratenin> how do I get beryl manager to run on startup?
[10:56] <rooly> i thought that too at first, its just that adobe's arm+leg applications actually work like they are supposed to
[10:56] <jebuskrist> piratenin, put a symlink in your kde autostart directory is what i did
[10:56] <Taime1> piratenin: system>preferences>sessions
[10:57] <ironfroggy> "Cannot open root device '301' or unknown-block(3,1)",
[10:57] <jebuskrist> ironfroggy, is the fstab and grub install ok?
[10:57] <kushal06062007> Hello, I am on a Pentium Willamette processor and D845GLLY motherboard. Do you know how much RAM I need to run Ubuntu 6.04?
[10:57] <omegacenti> !worksforme
[10:57] <ironfroggy> and i also get "please append a corect 'root=' boot option"
[10:57] <ubotu> Common Sense: Just because you can, does not mean you should (and especially recommend to others). Think before you do. "Works for me" does not mean it is ok. The latest version of everything is not always useful if you aim for stability.
[10:57] <piratenin> I don't know what to put for command
[10:57] <xand_> hi, is there a way to access my system tray via keyboard shortcut?

[10:58] <hrehf_> can anyone point me to a good (graphical) scp client?
[10:58] <RoAkSoAx> piratenin, beryl-manager
[10:58] <jebuskrist> any changes/updates to the machine ironfroggy
[10:58] <jrib> hrehf_: nautilus
[10:58] <anthony_> New user here: Is this the place to ask questions about installation problems with xubuntu?
[10:59] <rem> hreh winscp on win ..or gftp on nux .. ?
[10:59] <piratenin> What about gaim, just gaim?
[10:59] <ironfroggy> jebuskrist: not that im aware of and i dont think my wife even knows how to run the auto updates.
[10:59] <SlimG> xand_: There might be possble to right-click on the specific system tray shortcut and assign a key-shortcut
[10:59] <jrib> anthony_: you can ask here or in #xubuntu if you think it is xubuntu-specific
[10:59] <kushal06062007> thanks RoAkSoAx.
[10:59] <ironfroggy> would an "unknown-block" mean it can not find the root, or can not mount the root which it can find?
[10:59] <jebuskrist> thats really strange ironfroggy i have no idea other than maybe grub got screwed up some how and isnt pointing at the correct place
[10:59] <ironfroggy> im leaning for the first
[10:59] <hrehf_> duh, my irc client just crashed :/
[11:00] <jebuskrist> im not sure ironfroggy im a noob :D
[11:00] <ironfroggy> jebuskrist: grub is packed away safely on a floppy so it cant get messed up
[11:00] <kushal06062007> I am on Pidgin
[11:00] <hrehf_> did someone answer my question for a graphical scp client? ;)
[11:00] <ironfroggy> jebuskrist: oh know im screwed! noob.
[11:00] <jrib> hrehf_: nautilus
[11:00] <jebuskrist> lol :D
[11:00] <Dhaos> Afternoon folks
[11:00] <jebuskrist> hrehf_, i think they recommended nautilus
[11:00] <jebuskrist> not sure
[11:01] <jebuskrist> ironfroggy, check the grub install just to be sure that its pointing at the correct stuff :)
[11:01] <xand_> SlimG: i'm sorry, i didn't get it
[11:01] <jebuskrist> i had mine go south yesterday it started pointing at the wrong hard drive :)
[11:01] <SlimG> hrehf_: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/showthread.php?t=168813
[11:02] <jebuskrist> is it possible to install the restricted devices manager in kubuntu?
[11:02] <ironfroggy> jebuskrist: yeah but thats exactly why i keep her boot loader on the floppy and out of reach of updates
[11:02] <misfit> jrib, you there?  I got an error output, looks like...
[11:02] <jebuskrist> if its a 1.44mb floppy i wouldnt trust it as far as i could throw it :)
[11:02] <ironfroggy> ill have to find time to drudge around in a barely usable rescue terminal and reinstall the boot loader to be sure i suppose :-/
[11:02] <SlimG> xand_: right-clik icon -> properties -> define key-shortcut or something like that?
[11:02] <ironfroggy> jebuskrist: it has always worked better for me than booting from the drive.
[11:03] <carolyn_> for some reason my ubuntu hd doesn't show up on my network...like when i look at the network from another computer...
[11:03] <misfit> I just tried cdrecord in the command prompt, and then it just froze but kept repeating "resid: 64512".  Any idea what this means?
[11:03] <jebuskrist> i love my old 1.44mb floppy disks but it seems after some time the disk degrades or the drive starts having issues or both :(

[11:03] <UltraNav> how to tell gxine which drive to use for raw DVD access - it doesn't seem to accept /dev/dvd
[11:04] <ironfroggy> jebuskrist: i can see that but the machine is only rebooted every few months, so its not like the disk is over tasked.
[11:04] <hrehf_> jrib: cool, nautilus works great, thank you (also reading the link, SlimG)
[11:04] <xand_> SlimG: oh you mean assign a key-shortcut via application itself..so theres no way to access the tray area on gnome thru keyboard?

[11:05] <anthony_> I'm installing xubuntu on an old Gateway desktop with a 348mhz  processor or something like that and 192m RAM. The hard drive i'm installing to is 2Gb. I attempted to install from the liveCD, and the installation process has hung on Copying Files at 47% for about an hour. What is the appropriate action to takeshut it down, format the drive, and start over?
[11:05] <defcons> can I use the ubuntu installation cd to boot an ubuntu installation?
[11:05] <omegacenti> Jowi: one sec
[11:05] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: gdm
[11:05] <piratenin> How do I get Java Runtime Environment working?
[11:05] <craigbass1976> misfit, did you try the command I posted and got that message?
[11:05] <jrib> !java > piratenin (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:05] <piratenin> firefox says no plugin is avalible
[11:05] <defcons> anyone?
[11:05] <xand_> SlimG: you're right..
[11:06] <Azhi_Dahaka> not the desktop manager... the screen, my ubuntu install is on my native language so i don't know the original name for that
[11:06] <craigbass1976> piratenin, go to www.candocomputerservices.com and get the appendix off the tinapos page.  I have java install instructions there
[11:06] <^4nDr3s> !java > RoAkSoAx
[11:06] <ubu22> how do I install additional apps from a DVD ?
[11:06] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: be more specific
[11:06] <Azhi_Dahaka> the one you can modify via administration
[11:06] <defcons> It's a simple question
[11:06] <jrib> !please > defcons (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:06] <^4nDr3s> !java > ^4nDr3s
[11:07] <defcons> oh, yes
[11:07] <defcons> thanks jrib
[11:07] <philc> I'm trying to think of a domain name; can someone think of another word for UI?
[11:07] <Azhi_Dahaka> the screens that welocmes you
[11:07] <jamyskis> piratenin: you can also use easyubuntu
[11:07] <SlimG> misfit: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/+bug/15221
[11:07] <defcons> jrib, that's a load of crap
[11:07] <jamyskis> philc: GUI?
[11:07] <omegacenti> Jowi: I did the command... asked for password... nothing happened.
[11:07] <craigbass1976> piratenin, then you have to make a link in a firefox folder somewhere, but I can't remember where.
[11:07] <defcons> I asked if I can boot my ubuntu installation from the ubuntu cd
[11:07] <philc> jamyskis: also besides gui =)
[11:07] <jrib> defcons: what do you want to do with the installation?
[11:07] <Azhi_Dahaka> the screen where you put the username and password... the one where you can select themes
[11:08] <ahmed> rmmod ipw3945 ,  ERROR: Module ipw3945 does not exist in /proc/modules GUYS PLZZ HELPPP
[11:08] <defcons> jrib, I want to install without writing to mbr
[11:08] <jrib> Azhi_Dahaka: it's gdm

[11:08] <ahmed> wats a thinkpad,, i guess not thenanyway
[11:08] <defcons> hmm thinkpads have that wireless card in too

[11:08] <defcons> I just need a yes or no
[11:08] <sebas_> are there any free drivers for ATI Technologies Inc RV280 [Radeon 9200 SE] ?
[11:09] <ubu22> Is it possible to get real help on this IRC?
[11:09] <jrib> ubu22: sure, just ask your question
[11:09] <anthony_> What should I do if an xubuntu installation hangs at 47% while copying files?
[11:09] <rem> lsmod | grep ipw3945 ...is it there ?
[11:09] <ahmed> no
[11:09] <omegacenti> Jowi: Sorry, command appears like it did nothing.
[11:09] <kushal06062007> Hi, is it possible to launch Ubuntu 6.06 LTS livecd in some CLI mode?
[11:09] <ahmed> defcons, no
[11:09] <anthony_> I'm using a liveCD
[11:09] <defcons> can anyone please tell me if I can boot an ubuntu installation from the installation cd?
[11:09] <defcons> please?
[11:09] <jebuskrist> anthony_, is anything else on the drive?
[11:09] <ubu22> thanks jrib - how do i install an app from my DVD?
[11:10] <albert> anthony_, look up the checksum, run a "Check CD" (or sth like that)
[11:10] <jrib> ubu22: what are you trying to install?
[11:10] <anthony_> it had windows XP installed, and I chose to overwrite it.
[11:10] <albert> or just scrub some dust of the cd
[11:10] <defcons> fuck this
[11:10] <ubu22> I would like to  do : apt-get install cdrom application
[11:10] <jebuskrist> anthony_, if theres nothing on the drive you need i just punch the reset button and then check the cd for defects on next boot
[11:11] <rem> ahmed was that no to the lsmod .. ?
[11:11] <anthony_> I'm not a power user, on a Gateway PC, where would I check the cd for defects.
[11:12] <novato_br> have I get work my mic i need this drivers? --> http://www.nvidia.com/object/linux_nforce_1.21.html

[11:12] <jebuskrist> anthony_, its on the boot menu when you boot the cd
[11:12] <anthony_> Okay, thanks.
[11:12] <jebuskrist> it should say Check CD For Defects

[11:12] <Elfboy> !host
[11:12] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about host - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:12] <anthony_> So there's no way to save the installation process at this point?
[11:12] <Elfboy> !hostname
[11:12] <ubotu> Use hostname <somehostname> to set the hostname, or to do it permanently: edit /etc/hostname  and /etc/hosts . WARNING! Make sure that your current hostname and /etc/hosts match, otherwise sudo may not work properly. Alternatively, use the gui at system>administration>networking on the "General" tab

[11:13] <omegacenti> Jowi: I assume you are distracted by your child. I just want you to know I appreciate the help and whenever you are able to please continue.
[11:13] <jrib> ubu22: so you have a repository on your dvd and would like to add it so APT uses it?
[11:13] <soyporti> Hi. Does anyone of you know how can I get mp3 support in Amarok?
[11:14] <omegacenti> !codecs
[11:14] <ubotu> For multimedia issues, this page has useful information: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RestrictedFormats - See also http://help.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/desktopguide/C/common-tasks-chap.html - But please use free formats if you can: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FreeFormats
[11:14] <mc44> soyporti: install libxine1-ffmpeg
[11:14] <omegacenti> soyporti: I am not sure but I think restrcited codecs might help.. or follow what mc44 said.
[11:14] <ubu22> yes jrib ; I have looked all over the internet for a line I can type into the file - but nothing!
[11:15] <piratenin> I installed the sub-java5-jre but it still shows up as no plugin in Firefox
[11:15] <piratenin> sun*
[11:15] <jrib> ubu22: you can use 'apt-cdrom' from the command line.  But you should get a pop up automatically when you just put the dvd in.  Are you sure there is a repository on it?
[11:15] <carolyn_> i need to change the permissions for both a file and an external hd...help?
[11:15] <SlimG> opapo: 8.04 or 8.10 will be LTS, I guess the 8.04 will be the LTS one
[11:15] <Pirate_Hunter> how do I gain admin permission to my second hard disk at the moment it has a lock sign and I can't add folders
[11:15] <jrib> piratenin: did you install sun-java5-plugin?
[11:15] <jebuskrist> well im about to try my new driver and probably blow my system up :D
[11:15] <piratenin> no =(
[11:15] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: what filesystem?
[11:16] <omegacenti> jebuskrist: Yay for highexplosive drivers!
[11:16] <opapo> SlimG: Thanks
[11:16] <jrib> piratenin: that's the one you need for the plugin
[11:16] <Pirate_Hunter> ext3 jrib
[11:16] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: use chmod/chown as usual to set the permissions
[11:16] <jrib> !permission > Pirate_Hunter (see the private message from ubotu)
[11:16] <anthony_> Should I wipe the hard drive before trying to install, on a system that has Windows XP, or does the xubuntu installer do that on its own?
[11:16] <jasonmoneyhbz> does anyone know the username/password for the xubuntu live cd?
[11:16] <piratenin> I just searched for that in synamptic and didnt find anything
[11:16] <jrib> anthony_: it can do it if you ask it to
[11:16] <jrib> piratenin: what architecture are you using?
[11:16] <SlimG> anthony_: The Xubuntu install will take care of the disk
[11:17] <Pirate_Hunter> !permissions
[11:17] <ubotu> The files and directories on an Ubuntu system are organized according to a standard, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filesystem_Hierarchy_Standard - file permissions are explained at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FilePermissions - All filenames and directory names (and many other things) are case sensitive in Linux
[11:17] <piratenin> architecture?
[11:17] <piratenin> ubtunu feisty?
[11:17] <jrib> piratenin: like amd64 or i386
[11:17] <piratenin> amd64
[11:17] <aLeSD> hi I have a problem with audacity .. I can't export in mp3
[11:18] <aLeSD> it asks for lame ... but I have it .. I'm sure
[11:18] <anthony_> jasonmoneyhbz I didn't need a password when I booted it up. Maybe I'm not getting your question.
[11:18] <Pirate_Hunter> Im admin I should be able to get permision to it, i tried to change properties and it wont let me/ my hardware is 64 base but im sticking to i386
[11:18] <jrib> piratenin: sun does not have a java plugin.  The only one that is available for amd64 is Blackdown but it is java 1.4 (works fine for me).  Your other option is to setup a 32bit chroot
[11:18] <ppcuser> I have a major samba problem and would rilly like some help. my shares show up but i am undable to create a folder or anything i have looked every where on the internet and have found nothing and if i cant get it rite then i am going to have to install windows back on the computer. so any help would be nice.
[11:18] <klav> aLeSD: doesn't it ask you to locate the lame file?
[11:19] <_Fredd_> some free program for the edition of videos ?
[11:19] <bruenig> !info avidemux
[11:19] <ubotu> avidemux: a small editing software for avi (especially DivX). In component multiverse, is optional. Version 1:2.3.0-0.0ubuntu3 (feisty), package size 3270 kB, installed size 8256 kB
[11:19] <aLeSD> klav: yes the lib
[11:19] <tyler_d> error on make install? not sure if its coding or me?
[11:19] <aLeSD> so
[11:19] <aLeSD> the dinamic one
[11:19] <Pirate_Hunter> Is there aw ay for me to unlock my HD and get permission to make folders
[11:19] <jrib> Pirate_Hunter: you need to use sudo along with the chmod/chown commands I linked you to.  Join #ubuntu-classroom after reading the page ubotu gave you if you still are not sure what to do
[11:19] <jasonmoneyhbz> anthony_: it prompts me to login after i boot up
[11:19] <toryl__> ppcuser:  are you sharing from your ubuntu machine or to it?
[11:20] <klav> aLeSD: so you point audacity to the file and it still will not export as mp3?
[11:20] <Pirate_Hunter> kk jrib
[11:20] <anthony_> I don't know, it didn't do that for me.
[11:20] <Jowi> omegacenti, yeah, babies wake up way too often. "sudo ddcprobe" still nothing?
[11:20] <ppcuser>  toryl__: from my ubuntu computer. my ppc computer works my my one that i just installed ubunut does not
[11:21] <aLeSD> klav: ah I found the trik
[11:21] <aLeSD> klav: audacity what a symlink that doesn't exist in ubuntu
[11:21] <ubu22> thanks jrib:  I tried that but just get an error R:...
[11:21] <aLeSD> i have lame but the name is different
[11:21] <jrib> ubu22: what error?
[11:21] <toryl__> ppcuser:  how is it not working?  Do you get an error, etc.?
[11:21] <piratenin> I only need java to use realVNC, and it works with 1.4, thanks
[11:21] <klav> aLeSD: ahh so your good?
[11:22] <jrib> kushal06062007: no, but you can use the Alternate CD to get a text-mode install.  What is it that you want to do exactly?
[11:22] <aLeSD> klav: yes ... it works
[11:22] <aLeSD> thanks
[11:22] <dbuiviet> hi, any1 knows where to download Cisco VPN client for Ubuntu?
[11:22] <ppcuser>  toryl__: its not giving me the permition to write to any of my shares
[11:22] <carolyn_> i can't seem to right-click. i modified the keys as per the MacBook guide on ubuntu community and the 'enter' key that should be right-click seems to be 'left-click'/'enter'
[11:22] <dbuiviet> I couldn't get it from Cisco site
[11:22] <jrib> Fredd: kino, pitivi
[11:22] <dbuiviet> :-(
[11:22] <anthony_> I'm trying to boot from the xubuntu livecd, getting a whole string of messages saying Buffer I/O error on device hda, logical block 236729, etc. What does that mean?
[11:22] <omegacenti> Jowi has left :(
[11:23] <omegacenti> hello again Jowi
[11:23] <Jowi> omegacenti, hi :)
[11:23] <Eroick> I just did a ubuntu server install and I got to grab some stuff from a usb flash drive. The problem: /dev/sda doesn't exist
[11:23] <omegacenti> Jowi: yes some output occurred.
[11:23] <Jowi> omegacenti, can you paste bin it please?
[11:23] <toryl__> ppcuser:  is it asking for authentication?
[11:23] <eegore> are there addition templates for KOffice?
[11:23] <omegacenti> Jowi: however I vaguely rememember it not having my ranges. one second I wil pastebin.
[11:23] <dmb062082> my clock is going way to fast
[11:24] <ppcuser>  toryl__: no i have it set to share becouse that part give me an error message
[11:24] <piratenin> I installed warcraft III via wine and now when I try to launch it, it says  frozen throne was unable to locate your CD-ROM drive.
[11:24] <omegacenti> Jowi: http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/24638/
[11:24] <albertmk> stop playing WarCraft! Play StarCraft!!!
[11:25] <piratenin> starcraft is too old =(
[11:25] <PriceChild> piratenin, have you read the winehq appdb? i guess you'd need a crack
[11:25] <piratenin> + no dota
[11:25] <albertmk> StarCraft is coming
[11:25] <albertmk> Starcraft2 !!!
[11:25] <omegacenti> !uselessadvice | albertmk :p
[11:25] <ubotu> Sorry, I don't know anything about uselessadvice - try searching on http://bots.ubuntulinux.nl/factoids.cgi
[11:25] <toryl__> ppcuser:  you've given access to 'others' in the properties dialog?
[11:25] <piratenin> Starcraft 2 is going to be vista only, no wine =(.
[11:25] <Pirate_Hunter> jrib i understand the whole permission thing but whant I can't do is the whole working through terminal this is like my second day on ubunto
[11:25] <rem> apt-cache search cisco | grep vpn -> vpnc - Cisco-compatible VPN client (found the cisco one from google also..)
[11:25] <albertmk> install vista then :D
[11:26] <omegacenti> piratenin: I am sure something will be figured out.
[11:26] <kushal06062007> Jrib: actually, I am just flirting with the idea of miggrating to ubuntu. Which version should I use? Would 6.06 with Gnome be fast enough with 384 MiB RAM (includes 8MiB integrated video)
[11:26] <Eroick> so how can i get /dev/sda to appear?
[11:26] <Pirate_Hunter> couldn't u type the steps for me an dI change the bits that i need
[11:26] <ppcuser>  toryl__: where do i but that option?
[11:26] <carolyn_> argh. i had toyed with the idea of switching over completely to ubuntu someday, but it seems like something different breaks every few days...this is ridiculoud
[11:27] <tuxedup> i dont suppose anyone cna help me.  I am using kubuntu with beryl, but when using beryl all gtk apps are sluggish, even the beryl configuration tools are sluggish.  I have an intel chipset using the i810 driver.  This is also the case in all other distros I use, any ideas?
[11:27] <omegacenti> car
[11:27] <piratenin> ok I checked the AppDb on WineHQ
[11:27] <piratenin> http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iAppId=897
[11:27] <anthony_> bios age (1998) fails cutoff (2000) I get that message while booting from the liveCD on an old Gateway desktop. does that signify a problem?
[11:27] <toryl__> ppcuser: right click on your shared folder, go to permissions, and set them for 'others'; but for security you really should get login working
[11:27] <piratenin> how is that supposed to help me?
[11:27] <omegacenti> carolyn_: I sometimes get the same idea..
[11:27] <Jowi> omegacenti, damn. no specs found for that monitor. ok. if you run "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" and ask it to write those values in
[11:27] <toryl__> ppcuser:  sorry, properties -> permissions
[11:27] <TECH-> Windows is like: .. A (virus) cold .. And can only be controlled through A (emulsifier) Antibiotic/AntiVirus.
[11:28] <omegacenti> Jowi: I am sorry?
[11:28] <tyler_d> anyone know what "no rule to make target" is all about?
[11:28] <ppcuser>  toryl__: ok thanks il take a look
[11:28] <CokeMan> i tried to run make on an application and i got an error it seems for every line in the .c source, is there something i need to configure with make?
[11:28] <pitwolf> anyone know how to find out which device my mobile is, when it's connected by bluetooth?
[11:29] <SlimG> tyler_d: probably lacks "Makefile" or "Makefile" is empty
[11:29] <tyler_d> CokeMan: you need to have ownership and run make as sudo, I do believe
[11:29] <Jowi> omegacenti, "sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" will try to auto detect your monitor or let you select one by the size of the screen. you will get a question if it (the configuration program) should write the horiz/vert refresh rates to the config file.
[11:29] <omegacenti> Jowi: might you walk me through it?There were some options last time that left me a little weary... also, a backup of xorg would be nice.  What command again?
[11:29] <tyler_d> SlimG: so should I be recompiling from source? or invalid build?
[11:29] <chm> Crashed: try bz2 or 7z
[11:29] <sebas_> I can no longer activate the Desktop Effects, can anybody help me?
[11:30] <Jowi> omegacenti, sudo cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.jowibackup
[11:30] <Jowi> :)
[11:30] <SlimG> tyler_d: sounds like you're running "make" before "./configure"
[11:31] <omegacenti> Jowi: X server driver?
[11:31] <Jowi> omegacenti, i810
[11:31] <omegacenti> Jowi: Identifier for Graphics card
[11:32] <piratenin> I've been studying C++ on windows XP using dev-c++, I learned win32 programming but I am also familiar with SDL, how big of a change will it be for me?
[11:32] <pitwolf> anyone know how to find out which device my mobile is, when it's connected by bluetooth?
[11:32] <tyler_d> SlimG: let me double check
[11:32] <Pirate_Hunter> can someone tell me how I can gain access to my other HD, it has a lock sign and tells me I aint the owner
[11:32] <piratenin> And how much more difficult is it to get everything set up
[11:32] <Jowi> omegacenti, "Intel Graphics Controller"
[11:32] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: what file format is the other drive?
[11:32] <bintrue|work> Can someone help me with a good local apt-server resource? eg a good Howto?
[11:32] <Jared> Is there a command I can use in ubuntu to check system memory
[11:32] <Jowi> omegacenti, it's just a placeholder name.
[11:32] <smallfoot-> anyone here contribute to the community docs?
[11:32] <omegacenti> Jowi: Video card bus identifier?
[11:32] <smallfoot-> i saw this webpage https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BurningIsoHowto

[11:33] <Pirate_Hunter> Indy my drive is ext3 and can be seen by ubuntu
[11:33] <smallfoot-> i tried to the same, but it was more complex
[11:33] <smallfoot-> it ask ifi want DVD, but I wanted burn to CD
[11:33] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: the drive you can't access, is ext3?
[11:33] <Jowi> omegacenti, "Intel video bus"
[11:33] <smallfoot-> since i have no DVD discs at home, for my DVD burner
[11:33] <smallfoot-> and it ask for Session at once (sao), ttrack at once (tao), etc
[11:33] <Pirate_Hunter> yeah Indy
[11:33] <zerby> i need some assistance

[11:33] <zerby> bur i am a debian user myself

[11:34] <omegacenti> Jowi: k
[11:34] <IndyGunFreak> Pirate_Hunter: try this... right click the drive, properties, permissions.. see if you can change the drop down menu to read and right.
[11:34] <IndyGunFreak> otherwise you may hve to chmod it.
[11:34] <omegacenti> Jowi: Amoun of memory to be used by the video card?
[11:34] <Pirate_Hunter> Indy I cnat do that it tells me I aint the owner so I cnat change anything
